Chapter 217: When a Man Is About to Die 1
Dream Dao Attainment, Opening Scheme Against Cultivators
Dream-Making Expert
Five years later, the Thunderfire Pill Realm.
Ancestor Blaze, Ling Nanzi, and Patriarch Chen Kong from the Dharma Spirit Realm had stolen a half-day of leisure.
Gathered together, drinking tea and chatting, they pointed and gestured toward the Red Tower.
“Yo.”
“Another one’s here.”
“Are all these people rushing over to see Lin Qi one last time?”
“I don’t think so. They look more like they’re here to fight over the inheritance.”
At these words.
Everyone burst out laughing.
But as they laughed, Ling Nanzi couldn’t laugh anymore.
“Damn it.”
“If I’d known Lin Qi was a dying man.”
“I wouldn’t have signed such a humiliating treaty back then no matter what.”
That Lin Qi was about to die, everyone knew.
For Ling Nanzi and the others who had previously suffered losses at Lin Qi’s hands and endured great humiliation.
From the day they learned the news, they could not help but applaud.
But at the thought that even if Lin Qi died.
They would still have to honestly repay the massive contributions they owed because Lin Qi had refined the origin of the Pre-Heaven Divine Fire, according to the previous treaty.
Ling Nanzi and the others could not help but start thinking.
Was there a way to gain some benefit from Lin Qi’s impending death.
“Lin Qi doesn’t know his own limits, seeking his own death. His death is not to be pitied.”
“But the greater part of Lin Qi’s cultivation was thanks to our Thunderfire Pill Realm.”
“Him dying is one thing.”
“But the things he leaves behind should not be cheaply given to outsiders.”
Ling Nanzi pointed at the Red Tower.
“Putting other things aside, the position of Tower Lord of the Red Tower must be returned to us.”
“That’s the reasoning.”
Ancestor Blaze immediately nodded in agreement. Seeing that Patriarch Chen Kong only lowered his head to drink tea without speaking, he spoke again.
“Fellow Daoist.”
“It’s not that we want to fight over something.”
“It’s just that we have no choice but to fight.”
“You’ve seen it too.”
“Lin Qi isn’t even dead yet.”
“And there are plenty of people coming to pose as his filial sons and grandsons, waiting to divide the inheritance.”
Ancestor Blaze reached out and pointed at the several figures guarding in front of the Red Tower.
“Qingkong, forget it.”
“After all, she did have some unclear relationship with Lin Qi before.”
“And behind her is Fellow Daoist Qinglan’s connection.”
“Her coming to take a share of Lin Qi’s inheritance, that’s nothing wrong with that.”
“But look at that Ye Qianli.”
“He’s nothing but a watchdog.”
“And yet someone’s using that kind of relationship to come knocking.”
“What garbage!”
Patriarch Chen Kong was left speechless.
He could not help but laugh.
