A Cunning Pervert in the Cultivation World Chapter 521: Brother Li
Previously on A Cunning Pervert in the Cultivation World...
The moment his hand clasped the old corpse’s face, Prime Minister Mu’s corpse along with the chair he was sitting on completely disappeared.
The Cold Jade Chamber fell into complete silence once more.
Yue Lan and Lan Suyao, who had been watching silently behind him, looked confused at the sudden disappearance of the corpse.
Yue Lan’s golden eyes widened slightly, but a flash of understanding appeared in her gaze.
Lan Suyao, on the other hand, looked completely shocked.
She stared at the empty spot with wide eyes, then turned to Li Feng with her mouth slightly open.
"...What happened? Where’s the corpse?"
Hearing her question, Li Feng smiled faintly.
"Oh? I haven’t told you yet?"
He casually walked over to them and explained,
"Actually, I have a special treasure that contains a world inside it. In that world, nothing can escape my gaze. So I decided to use it to check whether there were any loose ends on this corpse."
Lan Suyao’s shock only deepened.
Her usual cold and dignified expression cracked as she stared at him in disbelief.
"You... you have such a treasure like that?!"
Lan Suyao was truly shocked, as she knew exactly how amazing and rare such a treasure was, yet this guy just casually shrugged it off and told her like it was some normal item.
Li Feng nodded innocently.
"Haha, I picked it up somewhere."
Lan Suyao’s cheeks flushed slightly from the sheer absurdity of that statement.
For a moment, she looked almost... cute.
Seeing her rare, dumbfounded reaction, a sudden rush of desire surged through Li Feng’s body.
Everything that had happened today... the endless schemes, the frustrating dead ends, the hidden mastermind had truly left him tense and irritated.
He really needed to vent it all out.
But... not yet.
Until he found something concrete today, he would not rest.
Li Feng took a deep breath and forced down the rising heat, his expression returning to calm.
Then he closed his eyes slightly and checked the corpse inside the Divine Brick.

Inside the Divine Brick...
Little Ling had already noticed a strange corpse appear out of nowhere.
Thick, glowing branches from the Divine Vitalis Soul Tree had immediately surrounded it, carefully wrapping around the body like curious tendrils.
There was nothing inside this world that could escape her attention, as her roots were already everywhere.
"Eh? A dead corpse?"
Little Ling’s child-like voice echoed softly in the space, filled with confusion.
"Why did Master suddenly send a dead body in here?"
She tilted her small branch slightly as more branches gently prodded and inspected the corpse.
Just then, Li Feng’s calm voice reached her.
"Little Ling, examine his soul for me," he said. "Tell me its current condition."
Little Ling’s leaves rustled happily.
"Understood, Master!"
As the Divine Soul Tree, there was no one better suited for this task than her.
Her golden branches gently pierced into the corpse’s head, carefully searching through the remnants of the soul sea.
A soft, humming glow spread across the body as Little Ling began her thorough inspection.
Little Ling’s golden branches glowed brighter as she continued her inspection.
After a short while, her cheerful voice rang out again.
"Master! The soul has been completely scattered and cleaned out. There’s nothing left... not even the tiniest fragment!"
She sounded a little excited as she continued.
"Wow... it’s such a clean vessel! The soul was erased so thoroughly that the body is almost like a blank canvas. It would be perfect for making a high-quality puppet or even nurturing something new!"
Little Ling’s branches gently poked the empty corpse a few more times, clearly impressed.
"Master is so amazing! How did you find such a clean one?"
Li Feng, who was still standing in the Cold Jade Chamber with his eyes closed, couldn’t help but click his tongue.
To be honest, he was hoping this guy might still be alive and using some unknown method to conceal himself.
Yet even with his absolute control over the Divine Brick space and Little Ling’s thorough inspection... it was just a regular dead corpse.
’Tch. So he really is dead.’
Li Feng opened his eyes, a faint trace of disappointment flashing across his face.
He had been ready for another cockroach-like revival, but it seemed Prime Minister Mu had truly been erased this time.
Li Feng was just about to leave the Cold Jade Chamber and return the corpse when Little Ling’s excited voice suddenly rang out in his mind.
"Ah, Master! I found something...!"
Li Feng paused mid-step.
"Hmm? What is it?"
Inside the Divine Brick, Little Ling’s golden branches were still carefully wrapped around the empty corpse.
She sounded both curious and a little proud as she replied,
"There was a very faint inscription hidden deep inside the remnants of the soul sea! It was almost completely erased, but I managed to decipher a few words..."
Li Feng’s eyes narrowed sharply.
"What did it say?"
Little Ling concentrated harder, her leaves glowing brighter as she tried to piece together the broken inscription.
"It’s badly fragmented... but I think it says..."
She paused for a moment before continuing in a serious tone, slowly reading the remaining fragments aloud.
" Eh?"
Little Ling’s voice suddenly turned confused.
"Master... is this brother Li referring to you? But why does this inscription call you ’Brother Li’? And what is ’almost ready’?"
But Li Feng’s face had already turned ice-cold.
His teeth clenched tightly as a surge of killing intent flashed in his eyes.
’This bastard...’
He knew exactly who had left this message.
The same mysterious existence that had sealed his divination ability back then.
And now... this person was openly mocking him.
Calling him "brother Li" so casually, as if they were old acquaintances playing a game.
Li Feng’s fists clenched so hard that faint cracking sounds echoed in the Cold Jade Chamber.
’So you’re still watching me...’
Li Feng paused for a moment before asking Little Ling again.
"Can you trace it? Or figure out any more information from that inscription?"
Inside the Divine Brick, Little Ling’s branches rustled slightly, sounding a bit disappointed.
"Sorry, Master... It was just a tiny lingering fragment. The main soul was already completely annihilated, so the inscription was very weak and broken. I couldn’t find any more traces or origin marks."
She added softly,
"It seems whoever left it was very careful... almost like they knew someone might check."
