The little girl blinked her eyes, muttering to herself, "Eh? Isn’t it too late? I heard Xu Changhe say so..."
In fact,
at the moment He Family’s grand array was broken, the entire Moon Rhinoceros Lake District felt the terrifying pressure.
But precisely because the power was so astonishing, they dared not intervene, assuming it was a Golden Core Demon Lord personally arriving. How could they dare to provide immediate support?
This led to the He Family being completely massacred!
Now, being directly exposed by Bai Susu, Xu Changfeng felt something was wrong, both shocked and fearful.
It’s not that he’s cowardly, but Bai Susu has always been reckless. If things go wrong, she might really kill him!
Xu Changfeng braced himself and said:
"Bai... Bai True Inheritor... we..."
"Useless."
Bai Susu coldly reprimanded, too lazy to look at them any further.
Her gaze continued to sweep around, and when she saw Chen Ye, who was being supported by two disciples with blood markings at his seven orifices, she paused briefly but then continued to look at others.
Everyone felt a chill when she glanced at them.
Why is this little ancestor looking at them for no reason? Could it be that she suspects there’s a demon cultivator among them?
Luckily.
Bai Susu quickly withdrew her gaze, gave a cold snort, and said:
"Why are you still standing there? Hand over all the information related to the He Family and the demon cultivators. I want to hear you explain it in detail!"
Only the little girl remained suspicious.
She felt that Bai Susu was just looking around so that she could take a glance at the master.
This way, it wouldn’t seem deliberate.
But this couldn’t fool her witty mind!
"Senior sister, do you think Bai Susu came with so many people to capture the master?" Qing Jun quietly transmitted to her senior sister.
"... You’re overthinking. At such a critical moment, why would the True Inheritor Bai want to capture the master?" Zhiwei said, half amused, half speechless.
Meanwhile.
Seeing Bai Susu and her group entering the He Family, Xu Changfeng whispered to Chen Ye:
"When the sky falls, there’s always someone tall to hold it up. Now that my sect has sent numerous experts, there’s no need for you, Taoist Friend Chen, to worry. Focus on healing well."
Chen Ye also sighed in relief.
Dealing with just one Mei Suxin already exhausted his means, and now in the Moon Rhinoceros Lake District, who knows how many more "Mei Suxins" there are.
With the arrival of Lingyin Sect members, he finally felt at ease.
These nine Foundation Establishment Cultivators were not ordinary ones; they were well-known strong cultivators.
"That’s excellent..."
He hadn’t finished speaking when he suddenly felt the world spinning, and the piercing pain from his divine soul attacked him again.
Wait a minute... what’s the Heart Slaughter Sword doing again?
On Saturn, the Heart Slaughter Sword was delightedly devouring Mei Suxin’s divine soul while pouring a large amount of soul power into Chen Ye to please him.
But Chen Ye’s soul was already damaged, and being forcibly infused with such immense power, he suddenly blacked out and fainted!
"Master!" "Taoist Friend Chen!" The three exclaimed in shock.
Vaguely.
Chen Ye felt himself fall into a warm embrace, probably Zhiwei’s.
"Gulp! Senior sister, look at what I said! I just knew..." The little girl’s miserable voice was heard again.
So,
this girl already knew the master was going to faint?
Could it be, she’s truly the prophetic Little Qingjun...
...
When Chen Ye woke up again, it had been three days later.
The familiar light herbal scent lingered at his nose, and beneath him was a soft bed.
When he opened his eyes, he saw that he was lying in a room at the Herb Pavilion.
"Master! You’re awake!"
Qing Jun, who was dozing off, resting her chin in her hand by the bedside, suddenly jumped up, exclaiming in surprise, tears welling in her bloodshot eyes.
"Master..."
On the other side, Zhiwei, who had been meditating with her eyes closed, also opened her eyes and pressed her slender, white forefinger on his wrist, carefully examining him.
After a while, she breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, the master didn’t retain any dark injuries."
"I... How long did I sleep?"
Chen Ye only felt a dull pain in his divine soul, but the ripping sensation had disappeared, evidently having been replenished by the Heart Slaughter Sword, as his soul was slowly repairing.
"Three days! A full three days!" Qing Jun pouted, tears streaming down, "You have no idea, you bled so much, and your face was as white as paper. You disappeared for three days, and I thought I might never see you again."
So, I disappeared for three days, no wonder Qing Jun’s eyes are so red.
Wait,
Chen Ye wondered, "Disappeared? Wasn’t I lying here the whole time?"
While saying this, he struggled to sit up, wanting to see the situation in the Moon Rhinoceros Lake District now.
"Master, your divine soul is injured and hasn’t healed yet, you shouldn’t move recklessly."
Zhiwei gently pressed her master’s shoulder, wiping away his cold sweat with a warm towel, and then explained to him,
"At the time, True Inheritor Bai said that you were the first to be retaliated against by demon cultivators, perhaps for some ulterior motive, so... she took you away for three days for investigation."
Sounds reasonable.
Chen Ye relaxed, "I don’t blame True Inheritor Bai... But, did she find anything?"
The little girl’s eyes almost spewed fire.
Investigation?
How could it be an investigation, the master must have been played miserably!
When he returned, even his clothes were gone, with only a shivering vine king left.
She originally wanted to communicate with the vine king through the little white fox, but the vine king was too stupid, unable to find out anything.
Meanwhile, Zhiwei remained calm, "Presumably, no clues were found, since True Inheritor Bai didn’t know that actually Mei Suxin came for Qing Jun."
"Indeed. What about Mei Suxin’s relics?" Chen Ye asked.
The little girl puffed angrily, "Master is like this, and still thinking about treasure! Did True Inheritor Bai also give master treasure? Or is it that as long as others give master treasure, they can become part of master’s troupe?"
This girl, why does she speak so strangely?
Chen Ye glared at the little girl, "Nonsense, what does this have to do with True Inheritor Bai?"
The little girl just wanted to speak, but was stopped by her senior sister covering her mouth: "Qing Jun, don’t talk nonsense, master just woke up from a serious injury, let him rest well."
"Mmm..."
Qing Jun pouted, handing a Storage Ring to her master,
"Here, it’s all here. I wanted to look in advance, but senior sister said to wait and look together with the master."
Indeed.
Seems not only him, but both his disciples also like opening treasure chests.
He remembers back in Yunxi District, when they got a Storage Bag from someone else, the two disciples would always look eagerly.
After all,
they were really poor at that time.
The atmosphere in the room became slightly relaxed because of the treasure-box-opening segment.
"Hiss..."
When Chen Ye’s divine sense entered Mei Suxin’s Storage Ring, despite having psychologized himself beforehand, he still couldn’t help but gasp.
Among those he had killed, Mei Suxin was certainly the richest.
This woman, a middle-period Foundation Establishment demon cultivator, had been causing chaos in Yan Kingdom for years, and she carried all her fortunes with her.
"Master, how is it?" Qing Jun curiously poked her little head over.
"Struck it rich!" Chen Ye replied succinctly.
The space inside the Storage Ring was immense, far beyond what his current Storage Ring could compare to.
And the most striking was the huge pile of Spirit Stones.
Roughly counted, there were over ten thousand!
One must know, during Songyang Cave Heaven, when Chen Ye liquidated several Foundation Establishment cultivators’ resources into Spirit Stones, it was only twenty thousand.
But Mei Suxin, just in Spirit Stones, had more than ten thousand!
Previously, in order to craft the Jade Treasure Sword, he had almost emptied his reserves, but now, these Spirit Stones were undoubtedly a timely rain.
Chen Ye poured out the resources from the Storage Ring to show his disciples.
"Wow!!" Qing Jun’s eyes instantly turned into the shape of Spirit Stones.
Even Zhiwei was stunned; although Chen Ye had seen two thousand Spirit Stones before, Zhiwei had never seen so many piled together.
Chen Ye suppressed a smile and continued counting.
Besides Spirit Stones, there were various demonic cultivation Cultivation Technique Jade Scrolls and Pills.
"Supreme Emotion Crossing Technique," "Channa Demon Technique," "Blood Soul Banner Refinement Method"...
Chen Ye frowned slightly; these cultivation techniques were sinister and vicious; naturally, he wouldn’t touch them.
Moreover, the Jade Scrolls were mostly missing key parts; if practiced, one would inevitably have to seek help from the Emotion Crossing Sect, gradually coming under their control.
The Pills also were mainly those that harvested or controlled people, equally classified by him as "to be dealt with" items.
"Next is her magical treasures and spiritual materials..."
Compared to other things, these two were the most valuable!
