Within Feng Yu Die's soul realm.
Wu Yue, who was hovering over the center of Mirror Lake , looked at the surrounding sky and water scenery in confusion.
She had practiced for so many years and had taken over hundreds of people, from elders of immortal sects to some hefty demonic cultivators.
But no one's soul had been so pure.
The soul realm was formed according to one's nature.
一A short-tempered fire root cultivator should have a sea of fire within his soul realm.
一A cultivator with a calm personality should have great rivers and mountains in his soul realm.
And so on...
But what was going on with this Mirror Lake ?
Was that silver-haired girl's heart that spotlessly clean?
Moreover, she remembered that she had attached a corpse soul to this girl before, but now there was no trace of that in this soul realm.
"This is... that girl's soul realm?"
For a moment, Wu Yue felt like she was in the wrong place but didn't think much of it. She had to find the location of the spiritual root, and from there, she would seize the silver-haired girl.
After taking over her body, she would let the two Foundation Building cultivators have a taste of what it was like to be killed by a comrade.
However, she didn't know that next to her was a small palm-sized figure, glaring at her angrily.
Xiao Tian, who followed Wu Yue inside, hovered over her with her arms crossed and head tilted to look at her.
''Old pal! There's an intruder!"
Following her childish voice, a golden light spread out from her chest, turning into a golden dragon.
Slap--
The dragon's tail flicked suddenly, knocking Wu Yue out of the air just as she had started to rise.
"Cough-- What the...?!!!"
Wu Yue, who was now pinned down by the dragon's tail, struggled to raise her head, but the only thing she saw was a bloody mouth.
"A dragon?! This girl belongs to... the Holy Emperor's..."
Before the words were finished, with a gulp, the golden dragon swallowed her, chewed her, and sent her into its stomach.
"Hiccup~~~" The golden dragon burped and looked askance at Xiao Tian, asking in a cold voice, "How did you let in so many weirdos these two days?"
"Everything's fine, it's just some demonic cultivators, okay? Your business is done now."
"Roar..."
The golden dragon exhaled like a landslide, and then its body dissolved into a halo of light, finally drilling back into Xiao Tian's chest.
Xiao Tian looked at the calm surface of the Mirror Lake , pursed her lips, and quickly flew down to clean up the remaining traces of Wu Yue's evil spirit.
--The demonic cultivator's body was so dirty that it stained the floor of her house.
...
Ye Anping stood at the edge of the sparkling lake. Looking up at the five pillars of light around him, he formed the sword fingers and concentrated.
"Collect!"
In an instant, the formation flags around him soared from the ground, flew from five directions, and landed next to him.
At this time, Pei Lianxue was meditating nearby. After all, Wu Yue had invaded her soul realm, and she needed to recover.
As for Feng Yu Die and Li Longling, they were still unconscious, so Ye Anping put them on the soft grass and let them lie down to rest.
A man in black came on a flying sword and landed next to him.
Liang Zhu watched from afar as Ye Anping started to pack up, so he also dispersed his prepared spells and rushed over on his flying sword.
"Sixth brother, is it over?"
"It was supposed to be more complicated, but it's over, thanks to that girl." Ye Anping pointed to Feng Yu Die lying on the ground. "Without her, that demonic cultivator could have lived for at least another quarter of an hour."
Liang Zhu frowned and looked at Feng Yu Die, suddenly feeling a little worn out.
Ye Anping told him before that the plan was actually very complicated. When he watched the battle, he also felt that the Ghost cultivator named Wu Yue was quite difficult to deal with.
In fact, he was prepared in case Ye Anping misstepped and was killed, to go back, take Liang Ating, and flee. He didn't expect this result, however...
A Ghost cultivator in the Core Formation stage was gone just like that?
"Never mind, I'm going back."
"Okay."
Ye Anping shrugged, watching Liang Zhu leave.
Then, he hurried to the ruins of the pavilion and dug up Wu Yue's original body with his bare hands.
When he saw the sorry state of her body, Ye Anping couldn't help thinking that it was a little excessive. He praised Feng Yu Die in his heart for her 'truly damaging' sword techniques, which were really awesome.
No matter what, this Wu Yue was still a Core Formation stage cultivator, but she actually cut her up like tofu, almost into shreds.
Ye Anping sighed, picked up the storage bag from the lower half of Wu Yue's body, and used his spiritual sense to explore the contents.
At this time, he heard a whimper behind him.
It was Li Longling, who woke up and stood up from the ground in a daze. She turned her head left and right in horror as if remembering what had just happened.
"Wu Yue?! Sister Feng?!"
"..."
Li Longling groped around with her hands, but she could only feel that she was on a lawn. Everything else was unknown to her.
Unknown means fear.
"Ah... Wu Yue!!! Sister Feng?! Where are you?... What happened?!!"
Li Longling shouted in panic, then suddenly remembered something. She touched her storage bag and took out a token from it.
Seeing this, Ye Anping narrowed his eyes, instantly transported to her side, and snatched the token away.
"Ah?!"
"..."
Ye Anping looked at the token he grabbed. Sure enough, she wanted to send a signal to the Dragon House , so he put the token into his storage bag and said calmly, "Miss Li, I just fed you a Soul Breaking pill. I recommend that you condense your energy and meditate first."
Hearing Ye Anping speak, Li Longling faced him with a horrified expression and crawled back on her butt.
"You... aren't you Sister Feng's brother? What do you want?!"
"..."
"Wu Yue! Sister Feng!!"
"Wu Yue is dead. Sister Feng is lying two feet away from your right hand. She is still sleeping."
"What?"
Li Longling couldn't believe it, so she wanted to touch Feng Yu Die, but in a panic, she slapped her face by mistake.
Slap-
"Ah?" Li Longling hastily withdrew her hand. "I'm sorry... Sister Feng, I didn't mean it."
Ye Anping sighed silently.
He wanted to explain things to Li Longling, but seeing how agitated she was now, a conversation was impossible.
After thinking for a while, he returned to Pei Lianxue, who was meditating, brought her in front of Li Longling, and whispered something in her ear.
Pei Lianxue nodded. She walked over and crouched in front of Li Longling, softly saying, "Miss Li, don't be afraid."
"..."
Hearing Pei Lianxue's gentle female voice, Li Longling's reaction was not as intense as when she talked to Ye Anping. She felt that this voice seemed to have spiritual energy, and after a moment of silence, she finally calmed down as well.
"Who are you?"
"My name is Pei Lianxue. The person named Wu Yue was a demonic cultivator. She has been killed by us."
Shocked, Li Longling frowned and asked, "Miss Pei, you said... that Wu Yue was a demonic cultivator?"
"Yes, she just tried to take over our bodies."
"..."
Li Longling was about to ask more questions, but she was interrupted by Ye Anping.
"Miss Li, when Sister Feng wakes up, she will take you to the Dragon House . If you want to know what's going on, you should know who to ask."
Li Longling frowned and turned to him. "What do you mean?"
Ye Anping smiled faintly. "After all, you just met us. For you who are blind, trusting me is not something I can ask for. I don't expect you to believe me, so it's better for the person you trust the most to tell you the truth. That's what I mean."
