Kill Me More Times, I’ll Become Invincible

The Featherhood Sect also worships the same immortals as the Yunxiao Sect, just under a different guise.

The two sects are fighting each other because Yunxiao Sect wants to weaken the luck of the Great Yan Imperial Court to deal with Founding Emperor Yan, who holds the Human Emperor Sword.

Also, a war that sweeps through the Southwest Province will inevitably provoke hatred and make both sects rally fanatical followers.

So, Feather King is well aware of this.

"There’s no restoring order here. This war is meaningless. It’s just Yunxiao Sect changing its name. Regardless of the outcome of the war, Southwest Province will still be the playground of the Immortal Gate."

And so, Feather King’s mixed thoughts arose.

She knows the truth but can’t say it. She has to act as a pawn driven by the Immortal Gate, bringing a disaster of war to Southwest Province.

If Yunxiao Sect is the instigator of the war, then this Feather King must also be considered a ruthless executioner with countless killings.

First on the Power List? The strongest half-demon?

Just a pawn of Immortal Gate and Yunxiao Sect.

She is an unmatched fierce warrior on the battlefield compared to ordinary martial artists.

Compared to Immortal Gate, she is just a pawn without control over her own movements.

Just then, footsteps and knocking sounds could be heard outside the mansion.

"Feather King, we have gathered information about Golden Village," said Jade Carp, a close confidant of Feather King.

After putting on her helmet again, Qing Li let Jade Carp in, who was holding a map that she spread out on the table.

The so-called Golden Village is a long-standing legend within the Hundred Thousand Mountains.

The human tribes of the Southwest Province mainly gather in cities like Linhe City and Yangmen City, relying on high walls and well-trained soldiers to fight against demons.

There are actually not many mountain villages like Xishan Village.

These mountain villages are either inhabited by people who seek refuge from heavy taxes and live independently in the mountains, or they are like Xishan Village, with unique divine blessings and protection from strong individuals.

The so-called Golden Village is a hidden village among the ten thousand mountains.

It is said that this hidden mountain village in the mountains holds endless amounts of gold. Some say this gold comes from thieves hiding from the court, while others claim it is related to tomb robbers from the previous dynasty. There are various rumors, but no consensus.

The only thing certain is that within this Golden Village, there is indeed a vast amount of gold.

And this, is Feather King’s goal.

War not only costs lives, but also money.

When the cannons fire, gold becomes more precious in turbulent times than in normal times, it’s like a valuable currency.

Jade Carp pointed to a spot on the map and explained:

"The location of Golden Village is in the northwest direction from here, about a hundred miles away."

"I just learned that within Golden Village, there is a Gold Transforming Stone that supposedly can turn stone into gold, creating a continuous stream of gold."

A stone that turns things into gold?

If it were someone else, they might not believe the far-fetched classic legend of turning stone into gold.

But Feather King is different.

She is a descendant of the Jingwei clan, naturally possessing supernatural abilities that ordinary martial artists find unbelievable.

The so-called Jingwei filling the sea is even more absurd than "turning stones into gold," a widely spread myth.

Others may not believe in turning stones into gold, but she does.

"Finally, there is news of Golden Village," Feather King nodded and said:

"Although gold is just a material possession, with the chaos in Jiu Province now, if we can find the treasure of Golden Village, not only could it change the barren situation of Southwest Province, but it could also improve the livelihoods of the people…"

As she said this, Feather King’s words suddenly stopped, her gaze falling on the map on the table:

"Is the Golden Village that you mentioned located in this place?"

"Yes, it’s situated in the deep mountains dozens of miles to the northwest of Linhe City," Jade Carp said, suddenly recalling something and smiling.

"I heard that the Feather King’s hometown is around Linhe City, and our next goal with the Feather King Army is to take over Linhe City."

"Whether we go to Golden Village first or attack Linhe City first, Feather King will be returning in glory, right?"

The term "returning in glory" made Feather King fall into a slight silence.

"Then… let’s go to Golden Village first," Feather King said.

"Is Feather King feeling sentimental about returning to his hometown?" Jade Carp asked with a light smile.

"Does Feather King prefer to first acquire some valuable gems, return in glory with those gems, and bless the elders and neighbors from the past?"

"Or is Feather King considerate, with the Southwest Province almost within his grasp, maintaining a calm mindset and a strong sense of justice and kindness."

The words "kindness and evil" were like a small, sharp thorn, causing a slight pain to Feather King.

"You don’t have to compliment me anymore," Feather King said a bit louder.

"I wasn’t complimenting you…" Jade Carp started to speak, but when she saw the cold look in Feather King’s eyes behind the mask, she felt puzzled and had to remain silent.

"I’m feeling a bit tired today, and I need to prepare for the journey to Golden Village. You can go ahead," Feather King said calmly.

After Jade Carp left, Feather King sat alone in the room, quietly staring at the map on the table.

She gently tapped on the map, focusing on the location of Xishan Village west of Linhe City, her expression complex.

The words "kindness and evil" were quite fitting to describe Spear Saint.

Spear Saint from decades ago was a rare gentleman in the martial arts world who was true to his words and actions.

Spear Saint had treated her like his own and raised her.

So she naturally returned the favor, treating Xishan Village as her hometown, and raised the banner of Xishan Village after Spear Saint died, protecting the village.

However, later, Yunxiao Sect took Xishan Village people as hostages, and she willingly became a pawn of Immortal Gate, becoming Feather King.

The so-called Feather King is a pawn of Immortal Gate who incited a meaningless war in Southwest Province, becoming the executioner causing suffering to the people of Southwest Province.

Qing Li actually chose the safety of her friends and family in Xishan Village and the lives of the people of a whole province.

War is not a game.

After achieving victory, many lives wither, and being Feather King means having to kill.

In the past two months, quite a few people have died directly or indirectly by her hands.

While she secretly does good deeds, such as vanquishing demons, saving people, and killing bandits, these actions actually don’t affect the bigger picture, but provide a moment of peace for her conscience.

"Feather King is not a saintly person who is good or evil, just a hypocrite." She gently touched the location of Xishan Village on a map made of animal skin, remaining silent for a long time.

Today she killed a bully, and saved a father and daughter in the city. But this was just a small act of kindness she did to satisfy herself.

But how many people have died because of this big chaos where she cannot see?

If Qing Li was just a regular leader of the rebellion, she wouldn’t have to bear this burden.

But she knew in her heart, and made a clear choice… as a frontliner of the Immortal Gate, she felt guilty.

Jade Carp said she was homesick, but that’s not quite right.

She wasn’t homesick, but after her hands were stained with blood, she felt too ashamed to face the elders in the village.

"One part of the soul left behind in the village seems to have disappeared… Xishan Village seems to have undergone some changes…"

"Well, let’s focus on what’s ahead first." Qing Li’s gaze became determined once more:

"Golden Village, the philosopher’s stone… I wonder what mystical qualities it holds."

………………..

Above the clouds.

Taoist Child Yu Shan and the other two cultivators are flying back to the sect.

Yu Shan seemed calm, while the other two behind him were somewhat nervous.

After all… all hundred spiritual beasts were killed in battle, Taoist Child Yu Shan also lost a Thundercloud Tiger. Clearly, it was meant to deal with a group of ordinary people, but in the end, they were not successful and let that Qiao family member escape.

With the sect’s matters not resolved and suffering losses, they were naturally uneasy.

Only the leader, Yu Shan, remained calm, "No need to overthink it, the task is already accomplished. Whether those few ordinary martial artists live or die doesn’t matter. What’s important is the Feather King’s situation, and the sect’s affairs have been handled."

"Senior Brother Yu Shan," a nearby cultivator couldn’t help but ask:

"Why is the Feather King so important? Our losses have been significant."

Yu Shan glanced at them.

"Well, since we’re here now, I might as well tell you a little secret."

"Have you heard of the legend of Jingwei filling the sea?"

"In ancient times, there was a goddess named Jingwei who drowned in the East Sea."

"After drowning, her spirit turned into Jingwei Bird. Every day, it carried stones and twigs, vowing to fill the East Sea forever."

"There is another version of the legend of Jingwei filling the sea."

"Later on, Jingwei met a seabird and had a child. The female looked like Jingwei, and the male looked like the seabird…"

The two cultivators listened to Yu Shan and were completely puzzled, not understanding why the Taoist Child suddenly started sharing folk stories.

"What if I told you that this Jingwei Divine Bird actually exists?" Yu Shan smiled.

"In ancient tales, the Jingwei Divine Bird is said to be the spirit of the goddess Jingwei after she died. The original Jingwei Bird was determined to fill the Eastern Sea by carrying wood and stones, never stopping until the sea was filled."

"The Jingwei Bird, formed from her spirit, could even give birth and bring forth new descendants."

"Do you understand what I’m saying?"

"The special ability of the Jingwei Divine Bird is that its spirit can turn thoughts into reality after death, even being able to give birth to offspring. Isn’t this a form of reincarnation after death?"

"If the Eastern Sea is not calm, Jingwei will never stop. In other words, as long as the determination doesn’t fade, the spirit can endure forever."

"The original Jingwei Bird in the legends lived for tens of thousands of years. It was only after many millennia passed and the ancient Eastern Sea dried up that the original Jingwei Bird died."

"Isn’t this what cultivators like us seek throughout our lives – a form of immortality?"
