Even though beautiful women were pleasing to the eye, Jiang Cheng was a ‘career-oriented’ man who focused on efficiency.
‘Just kill me now so that I can level up.’
‘Don’t dawdle!’
“Ding! Due to the host’s current behavior, the system would like to kindly remind you that it is fine to take the initiative to provoke the other party. However, if you directly ask the other party to kill you, it will be judged as the host wanting to commit suicide.”
“And if the host wants to commit suicide, the system will respect the host’s will.”
Pfft!
The system’s notification prompt almost made Jiang Cheng vomit blood.
He had originally thought that he would go out and look for people to kill him; even if he had to pay them to do so!
If he found the number one expert in this world and got the person to kill him, would he not immediately become the strongest person in this world?
So this kind of operation was considered suicide?
“What did you say?”
Ji Linghan looked at the young man in front of her in a daze, wondering if she had heard him wrong.
She swore that she had never seen such a handsome man in her life. That face of his was simply a work of the heavens, and no one could find a single flaw on it.
It even had a faint sense of charm that seemed to harmonize with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.
Of course, this was to be expected. In order to match his Indestructible Celestial physique, Jiang Cheng’s appearance had been tweaked by the system.
However, such a handsome man seemed to have a problem with his brain.
He wanted me to kill him?
“It’s nothing.”
Jiang Cheng hurriedly waved his hand with a smile on his face, pretending that he had not said anything just now.
What a joke. If he was killed like this, he would have died in vain.
Ji Linghan suddenly covered her small mouth and cried out in surprise.
“You… you are just an ordinary person. How could you even appear here?”
She was a cultivator, so she had used her spiritual sense to probe Jiang Cheng’s body and discovered that there was no spiritual qi in his body at all.
“Why can’t an ordinary person be here?”
Jiang Cheng asked in return, with an interested expression on his face. In fact, he was just trying to get some information from her.
“This is a sealed land. The spiritual pressure here is heavy. If ordinary people enter this land, their heart vessels will explode and die.”
Why did he not feel anything of the sort from the beginning?
Could it be because of the system’s protection?
“Sigh…”
Jiang Cheng let out a long sigh and adjusted his expression.
“Girl, this old man has been sitting here for a thousand years while waiting for the fated person to arrive. Congratulations, you’ve hit the jackpot!”
Puchi!
“A thousand years?”
Although she was still wary from being hunted not long ago, Ji Linghan was still amused by his words.
“Keep bragging. It’s rare for an ordinary person to live up to a hundred years, let alone a thousand years!”
She naturally did not believe him. If a cultivator wanted to retain their looks, they had to at least reach the saint realm.
The person in front of her did not possess any spiritual qi at all, so how could his words be true?

With his hands behind his back, Jiang Cheng looked up at the sky.
He asked in return, “This cave is so deep. Do you think an ordinary person could survive a fall from such a height?”
Jiang Cheng asked this question in order to regain the initiative.
Ji Linghan thought about it for a while and found it to be reasonable.
Even she, a cultivator who had crossed the boundary of body tempering, meridian condensation, and qi induction, having reached the yuan gathering realm, was in pain from the fall. Would not an ordinary person have shattered to pieces from the fall?
“Then, how come you don’t have any spiritual qi?”
Jiang Cheng had long thought of an excuse.
“My Daoist name is Taichu. I was a cultivator who once dominated an entire region a thousand years ago. Back then, when I fought against my old archnemesis, I was ambushed and my cultivation was sealed. In the end, I was trapped here!”
“Girl, if you bring me out, I will grant you good fortune!”
He had not even left the novice zone, so there was no real good fortune he could offer her. However, in order to trick Ji Linghan into bringing him out, he put in a lot of effort.
Ji Linghan had never heard of a Daoist expert named Taichu, but thinking about how big the entire Flying Cloud state was, she could not help but sigh.
Among the seven prefectures within the state, Qinglan Prefecture alone spanned hundreds of thousands of miles. There were many sects and clans within just a single prefecture, so how could she have heard of every expert.
Moreover, he was someone from a thousand years ago.
If he had lived for a thousand years, then he had to be at least a heavenly fate realm expert!
Cultivation in this world started from body tempering. There were many realms after that, such as meridian condensation, qi induction, spirit formation, yuan gathering, soul division, spiritual altar, heavenly fate, Dao palace, and so on.
The heavenly fate realm was an unattainable realm for cultivators of the entire Qinglan Prefecture. Ji Linghan could not imagine how powerful experts at that realm were.
The person in front of her did not look like one no matter how she looked at him.
“Senior…”
Although she did not quite believe him, it was better for one to remain cautious. She still unconsciously changed the way she addressed him.
“I can’t fly up either.”
“Huh? You can’t fly yet?”
“I can fly, but this is a sealed land. I can’t overcome the spiritual pressure here without reaching the Soul Division realm.”
Jiang Cheng was immediately disappointed. This person’s strength was insufficient.
Looks like he still had to think of ways to ‘influence’ her bit by bit.
Given time… she would definitely live up to his expectations and kill him.
“I found her!”
“She’s here!”
A hurried shout of surprise could be heard from above the cave entrance, followed by the sight of four figures jumping down.
“Little slut, I want to see where you can escape to now!”
The leader of the group was a woman with a mean expression, and her pretty face was filled with fury as she pointed her silver sword at Ji Linghan.
There were three other male disciples behind her, and they formed an encirclement around Ji Linghan and Jiang Cheng as soon as they landed.
Jiang Cheng, who was really well-trained and could not be any calmer, silently ridiculed them.
“Yao Yunxuan, are you really going to kill an innocent bystander?” Ji Linghan asked

Ji Linghan stood out and conveniently shielded Jiang Cheng behind her.
Her actions vastly improved his impression of her.
“Hmph, Ji Linghan, weren’t you very powerful in the past?”
“You defeated me in front of so many people during the seven sects’ competition last year, causing me to lose face. Didn’t you feel very awe-inspiring back then?”
“Now that your Flying Immortal sect has been destroyed, you can continue to act awe-inspiring in hell!”
