Xu Changhe finished speaking, his brows furrowed, sensing something amiss.
Moon Rhinoceros Lake District is bordered by Dragon Sleep Mountain to the north and connected to the Cang River to the south.
This Cang River flows southeast towards the East Sea, where the Emotion Crossing Sect’s Black Cliff City sits at the coast.
Thus, Cang River County can be considered as bordering the Emotion Crossing Sect.
"Indeed... That girl is reckless and fearless, she actually went to Cang River County."
Chen Ye sighed.
Zhang Chuxi likely thinks it’s a remote place, convenient for her revenge, completely disregarding the proximity of the Emotion Crossing Sect.
Of course,
she probably feels confident in her own abilities, plus surrounded by guards, not fearing the demons of the Emotion Crossing Sect at all.
After all, Foundation Establishment Demon Cultivators from the Emotion Crossing Sect are not commonplace, rarely seen.
Zhang Chuxi’s group is a formidable force within the Qi Kingdom, let alone in Cang River County?
"That girl! She’s the Fourth Elder’s daughter, perhaps each move is secretly watched by someone! Damn it... If only I knew she was that bold..."
Xu Changhe suddenly became anxious, how could he know what Zhang Chuxi might do?
He only thought she’d fool around at Moon Rhinoceros Lake District.
Chen Ye shook his head and instead started to console Xu Changhe:
"Don’t worry. Zhang Chuxi must have Foundation Establishment Cultivators with her, they’re not foolish enough to let her act wildly. Doesn’t she have Aunt Lan looking after her? Zhang Chuxi still listens to her."
"Brother Chen, you don’t understand!"
Xu Changhe’s tone was extremely anxious,
"Aunt Lan is indeed Foundation Establishment, but she can’t control that little ancestor!"
Lingyin Sect’s four great elders enjoy an esteemed position, long detached from worldly matters, let alone concerns of offspring.
The First Elder, Second Elder, and Third Elder have descendants but have already expanded their branches and leaves, like the Xu Family, with numerous offspring, yet blood ties have been distanced by many generations.
"Only the Fourth Elder!" Xu Changhe’s voice lowered, "She has never had offspring in her life, only adopted Zhang Chuxi as her adopted daughter in her old age. That girl has become the only daughter among the elders!"
Chen Ye was stunned upon hearing this, he hadn’t realized this layer of relation:
"That’s truly... cherished beyond measure."
If not for her still being in the Qi Cultivation stage, she would probably already have Third Tier Spiritual Artifacts...
...
Cang River County.
Counties surrounding Cang River County are inhabited by mortals.
Due to the scarcity of Spiritual Qi and being a border between two sects, cultivators are rare.
Even during wars between the two sects, this place is seldom affected.
Seaview Courtyard, a long-abandoned mansion facing the turbulent Cang River.
Night winds are chilling, stirring mists from the river surface, carrying a biting coldness.
In the main hall of the courtyard, candlelight flickered.
"Haha... Simple. Can’t wait to see Xu Qingjun’s expression then."
The girl gently sipped her tea, lifted her lips in disdainful laughter.
She was dressed in an extremely luxurious brocade gown, cinched at the waist with a silver-threaded belt, accentuating her budding graceful figure.
Her long, shiny black hair was not completely tied up, part draped smoothly over her shoulders, part arranged into two delicate, charming buns on top.
At first glance, she appeared graceful and elegant, completely unlike a vile kidnapper!
As Zhang Chuxi thought more, she felt more pleased with herself.
Direct revenge on Xu Qingjun, what fun is that?
That girl is shameless, even if beaten, she’d probably be indifferent.
But to humiliate her sacred like master in front of her...
Tsk tsk, Xu Qingjun’s expression of despair would surely be especially delightful!
For she once...
Thinking of this, Zhang Chuxi tightly gripped the teacup with her slender, fair hand, her expression slightly grim.
Behind her stood four black-clad Foundation Establishment Cultivators with deep breaths, respectfully.
"Miss, if he reports to the sect, what should we do..." one of them hesitated to say.
"No matter."
Zhang Chuxi’s pink lips slightly parted, her small face arrogant,
"What can they do to me? Besides, I have Aunt Lan separately watching Xu Qingjun. As long as Xu Qingjun is in my hands, Chen Ye still has to obediently cooperate!"
She had her plans all figured out.
Now Lingyin Mountain and Moon Rhinoceros Lake are isolated in communication, mother does not know her actions.
And the Peak Masters at Moon Rhinoceros Lake District, what can they do?
Anyway, she wouldn’t reveal where Xu Qingjun was, could they torture her?
By that time, Chen Ye would be at her mercy!
The more she thought, the more she felt clever.
Ingeniously isolating Xu Qingjun somewhere.
Hmph, that girl probably thinks they’re engaged in some role-play!
Now still seriously studying Gomoku, waiting to compete with her...
Meanwhile, Chen Ye received her forged Demon Cultivators’ letter, would certainly feel panic and come alone.
"Time is about right."
Zhang Chuxi expertly brewed tea, excitement flickering in her eyes.
Can’t wait to see Chen Ye’s reaction later.
Will he obediently submit?
Endure humiliation and become a tamed hound under her control...
Just then, a staggered sound of footsteps came from outside the courtyard.
A man wearing Lingyin Sect’s Guardian robe, pale-faced like paper, stumbled into the courtyard.
Exactly appearing as Chen Ye.
"Here he is!"
Zhang Chuxi’s smile grew brighter, feigning astonishment as she covered her mouth,
"Guardian Chen... How did you get here?"
The man lifted his head, his eyes were bloodshot: "I’m here."
"Guardian Chen’s affection for his disciple is commendable."
This young lady’s face of surprise turned to mockery, she slowly and deliberately brewed the tea, saying with a smile,
"But to see your disciple, you must first pass my test."
Zhang Chuxi was unwilling to waste words with him, she signaled to her four Foundation Establishment guards behind:
"It’s him, colluding with Xu Qingjun, openly humiliating me at the Martial Arts Pavilion. Teach him a lesson! Break his legs, make him kneel!"
