Transmigration: Experiencing Life's End - Dying Peacefully in One's Sleep

The onlookers were also discussing, "How amazing! How come that bead suddenly started glowing?"

"Does it have to glow to pass?"

Those who were next in line, some of whom failed, left disappointed.

There were also several different lights that appeared, and the person excitedly went to register the information.

Gong Shangjiao was also a little curious about what kind of test it was, since he couldn't tell anything special about these people just by looking at them.

Because some had martial arts skills, some had internal strength, and some were not selected.

After observing for a while, Sanwang left.

The three people came from different directions, so they naturally went their separate ways.

When Shangguan Qian arrived, she happened to run into Wan Qi'ai, the Western Demon. Since she had already encountered him, she certainly couldn't let him go.

As they brushed past each other, the two attacked simultaneously. Wan Qi'ai, who was holding a weapon, was about to strike Shangguan Qian when he realized he couldn't move.

A hint of panic flickered in his eyes as he connected the dots to the person who had killed the leader: "Did you kill Leader Dianzhu?"

Only with such power could the leader at the time have been killed without even having a chance to react.

Shangguan smiled and said, "You guessed right, I was just about to take you down to see her."

Wan Qi'ai: "Wait..." before she could finish speaking.

With a single palm strike, he shattered Wan Qi'ai's heart meridian, causing Wan Qi'ai to vomit blood and die, his eyes filled with fear.

Shangguan Qian took out a wet wipe to clean her hands and left. This person was just a ghost, so there was no need to worry about him like she did about Dianzhu, since Dianzhu was the most mysterious villain in the show.

When they arrived at the scene, thankfully, Han Ya and his men had already returned, otherwise they would have been doomed.

However, as soon as he returned to Wufeng, he received news from his subordinates that the Western Demon Wanqi'ai had died.

The two spirits sat facing each other in their former leader's position, hearing the news with doubt.

Do you know how you died?

Han Ya was pale: "The people below said that his heart meridian was shattered, but no signs of a struggle were found at the scene."

I just got back myself, and thankfully I didn't run into that person.

One of the two demons spoke up: "It must be the same person who killed the leader before, otherwise he wouldn't have this ability."

Another person spoke up: "Has the Qingyun Sect leader found out?"

Han Ya Yi: "All I know is that she's a woman."

"Continue the investigation, and instruct your subordinates to refrain from contacting the Qingyun Sect for the time being."

"Yes, chief."

The atmosphere at the scene was very lively. Shangguan Qian did not show up, but went to check on the situation from a different spot.

Three hundred people were selected over three days, and Yunshang led the main force back to the sect.

Shangguan Qian continued to wander the world, and it was only after some time that she remembered the promise she had made to Gong Shangjiao.

He delivered a letter to the stronghold he mentioned, and Shangguan Qian had only rested for two days when she received a reply from Gong Shangjiao.

He expressed his hope to meet with Wu Feng when he has time, to discuss the specifics of dealing with Wu Feng.

Shangguan Qian told Gong Shangjiao her location, and the two agreed to meet at a certain place to talk.

*

It had been almost a month since we last met.

As soon as Shangguan Qian entered, she saw Gong Shangjiao sitting behind a table laden with food and wine.

Seeing Shangguan Qian come in, he stood up: "You're here. Let's eat and chat."

Ever since Gong Shangjiao learned about Shangguan Qian's situation, he felt that the two had similar experiences, both having faced the death of loved ones from a young age.

He even killed Wu Feng on sight, and the two of them had common topics, and he also admired her.

"Young Master Jiao has also prepared wine and dishes?" Shangguan Qian asked with a smile.

Gong Shangjiao's lips curled up slightly: "Thinking that you probably haven't eaten yet, I had someone prepare it."

Shangguan Qian poured him a glass of wine, and then poured one for herself: "Let's drink to that first."

Gong Shangjiao picked up his wine glass, watched her carefree behavior, smiled slightly, and downed his own glass in one gulp.

"What suggestions does Miss Shangguan have regarding Wufeng?" Gong Shangjiao wanted to hear her opinion.

Shangguan Qian revealed some information: "I found out that there seems to be an inside agent of Wufeng in your palace, who passes messages to Wufeng. He knows that you need to choose a bride from outside, so Wufeng has cultivated many female spies targeting you long ago."

Gong Shangjiao was startled, his eyes darkening: "Do you know who it is?" After all, he had been in the palace for so long, yet no one knew.

If this person wanted to do something, the people inside the palace wouldn't even have time to react before he succeeded.

If they were to coordinate with Wu Feng from the inside, Gong Shangjiao wouldn't even dare to imagine the outcome.

Shangguan Qian: "He is Wufeng's Enchanting Rank assassin, codename Wuming. He should have been in the palace for many years, after all, Wufeng has also had the information for many years."

Gong Shangjiao's eyes were thoughtful: "Someone who entered the palace gates many years ago?"

Aside from her own mother and Yuanzheng's mother, Madam Lan was also gone, leaving only one person.

Lady Kirihime, the successor to Lady Myokihime who wields the blade—she's the only one who fits the criteria.

Shangguan Qian looked at his expression: "So you're starting to suspect someone?"

Gong Shangjiao nodded with a deep expression. The more he thought about it, the uglier his face became. He wished he could go back and investigate right now.

However, we still need to understand other aspects of the situation.

"Miss Shangguan said that Wufeng started training brides many years ago in order to sneak into the palace for the selection of brides?" Gong Shangjiao asked after calming down.

Shangguan Qian said without changing his expression, "Yes, when I was in Wufeng, I kept a close eye on Dianzhu's movements and that's how I discovered this."

Gong Shangjiao: "I have to thank you for informing me of this, otherwise the palace would have been walking on thin ice."

After saying that, he picked up the wine, poured a glass for her and himself, and toasted her.

Shangguan Qian: "Since we are cooperating with the palace, I will naturally tell you the truth."

Gong Shangjiao noticed that her gaze had softened considerably, without her even realizing it.

Shangguan Qian asked, "Young Master Jiao, have you thought about how to deal with this?"

Gong Shangjiao: "Since Wufeng was prepared, I think it's better to play along. But we still need to go back and discuss this with Zhiren."

Shangguan Qian: "Yes, we can control those Wufeng brides to send back false information and find an opportunity to wipe out Wufeng in one fell swoop."

Gong Shangjiao raised his wine glass: "I hope we can eliminate Wufeng soon."

Shangguan Qian clinked glasses with him: "Okay, that day will come soon."

The two discussed some detailed issues, and then Gong Shangjiao had to return to the palace gate to discuss them with Zhi Ren.

Shangguan Qian continued her travels, and the two agreed to meet again in half a month.

If anything happens during this time, you can send a message to let me know. Shangguan Qian agreed, and Gong Shangjiao set off to return.

Shangguan Qian was bored wandering around alone, so she went back to the Qingyun Sect.

Seeing that everything is developing well, I feel relieved. Yunshang is indeed a perfect talent.

"Xiao Qi, where are you?" I called out to it in my mind.

"Host, you're back! I'm sunbathing in the square!"

Shangguan Qian walked all the way to the square, where the disciples usually practiced martial arts.

Seeing Xiao Qi lying on her back, lazily sunbathing, I walked over.

"You seem to be having a pretty leisurely time every day!"

"Host, you're finally back!" After saying that, he pounced on Shangguan Qian.

Shangguan Qian took it with both hands and rubbed its head.

"How are you doing with your studies?"
