Ch. 527 - Sister Is Angry

One month later.

Eastern Region, west bank of the Blood River, Dry Cool Valley—

A bloody moon hung high above the silent valley, and the breeze swept over the trees in the valley, causing the grass to rustle.

Located on the top of the mountain was a demonic palace, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, with flags made of human skin hanging all around.

This palace was known as the High Demon Palace. It was the place where the Deep Dark Sect usually held banquets and discussed important matters. There were a large number of restrictions around it. It could be considered the heart of the sect.

The Deep Dark Sect was not a big sect, but not too small either.

The sect leader, Zhou Minghe, was a Sword cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage. 

There were also nearly twenty Nascent Soul Elders and seven thousand disciples in the sect. They occupied the strategic terrain of Dry Cool Valley which was easy to defend and difficult to attack. For the immortals, it was also a very troublesome location for a building.

Normally, to destroy the Deep Dark Sect, at least two Deification-stage cultivators must lead thousands of immortal disciples from the Western Region, to ensure a 100% chance of taking it down.

However...

Swoosh—

Ice blue spiritual light shot out from the High Demon Palace, shattering the silence of the entire valley. It cut a five-thousand-foot-long mountain right through the middle, like cutting tofu.

The top of the mountain slid down in the direction of the sword light, accompanied by a loud rumbling as soil and rocks flew and dust swept to the sky.

Then, the Deep Dark Sect welcomed the first snow in thousands of years.

Under the night sky, the snowflakes slowly fell down like black ash, and soon covered half of the valley.

In the hall of the High Demon Palace, the originally closed roof now revealed the moon in the sky, and the fine snow slowly fell inside and stopped on the head of a woman wearing the purple uniform of the Black Star Sect.

Thud—

A man without the upper body suddenly fell in front of her. Pei Lianxue puffed up her cheeks, flicked the remaining blood on the Snow Jade Spirit Sword aside, and then shifted her gaze to a middle-aged man who was slumped on the ground.

The middle-aged man was the leader of the Deep Dark Sect, Zhou Minghe.

Zhou Minghe had not recovered from the catastrophe that his Deep Dark Sect encountered today. He simply couldn't figure it out.

How could a girl in the early stage of Nascent Soul kill the seventeen Nascent Soul Elders of his Deep Dark Sect alone, kill all the way from the mountain gate to here, and then split his sect's Great Elder in half with a sword?

Indeed, he admitted that he did underestimate the enemy at the beginning.

When he learned that only seven immortal cultivators broke into the Deep Dark Sect, he did not open the sect formation, thinking that seven immortal cultivators could not do anything, especially since there were only two Nascent Soul cultivators among them.

Later, when he realized what was happening, he immediately summoned all the Elders in the sect to surround and kill them.

But how could this girl still kill her way up to the High Demon Palace? Pei Lianxue looked at him expressionlessly without even a trace of hostility in her amber eyes, as if killing demonic cultivators was just a routine for her. 

Step—

Zhou Minghe saw her walking toward him, gritted his teeth slightly, and flicked his sleeves. 

The blood-colored spiritual energy instantly condensed into a magic sword, shooting straight at Pei Lianxue's forehead. However, Pei Lianxue only raised the sword in her hand and waved an icy blue sword light.

Swish—

The sword light directly broke the magic sword into two and cut off Zhou Minghe's left shoulder. 

"Hiss—" 

Zhou Minghe gritted his teeth to endure the severe pain, and his heart sank as he watched Pei Lianxue calmly approach him step by step. He condensed his demonic energy at the fingertips of his right hand. 

As long as this girl took two more steps, she would enter the killing formation of his High Demon Palace. 

However, just as he was about to activate the formation, Pei Lianxue's right foot, which was about to step into the range, suddenly stopped and retracted.

Zhou Minghe's eyes widened immediately, but then he calmed down and said, "I didn't expect that the Western Region Immortal Family would produce such a monster as you!"

"I'm not a monster..."

Pei Lianxue frowned and answered in a low voice, then took out her small notebook from the storage bag and flipped through it, scanning it left and right.

Zhou Minghe saw the small notebook she suddenly took out, and he was even more confused. "What are you looking at?"

"Well... you just stared at my feet. Most likely there is a formation."

Pei Lianxue calmly analyzed, and then as if she was suddenly enlightened, she added, "Brother wrote it down for me, the Ghostly Killing Formation... Although you are a Sword cultivator, it seems that you also know the Ghost cultivator's body possession technique, so I can't get too close to you..."

"..."

Ignoring Zhou Minghe who stayed in place, Pei Lianxue exhaled a white mist, shook off the falling snow on her head, and then reversed her grip to hold the Black Ice Sword in her hand as a javelin.

Swish—

As Pei Lianxue raised her hand, the Snow Jade Spirit Sword instantly turned into an ice-blue straight line, piercing directly into Zhou Minghe's chest, pushing him to the ground, and then instantly freezing him into a human-shaped ice sculpture.

Zhou Minghe didn't even have time to react. He was covered by ice before falling silently on the spot with his eyes wide open.

Xiao Yunluo, Liang Zhu, and four inner disciples of the Black Star Sect had dealt with dozens of Deep Dark Sect disciples in the Core Formation stage at the foot of the mountain, and they hurried over to help.

However, when everyone landed their flying swords and saw that the High Demon Palace was filled with the remains of demonic cultivators and only Pei Lianxue was standing there, they all held their breath and gulped.

Those inner disciples had never seen such a scene before. Seeing their Sister Pei standing expressionlessly in the pile of corpses, but without a trace of blood on her, they were all terrified.

"Is this all Sister Pei's doing? So many Nascent Soul cultivators..."

"Well, we are so lucky... Following Sister Pei, we only need to help her set up the tent... I heard that Brother Liu and his group met a group of demonic cultivators before, and none of them came back..."

Liang Zhu heard the two people whispering and coughed lightly. The two shut their mouths quickly and dared not discuss it anymore.

Xiao Yunluo didn't say anything and quickly walked over. Seeing that Pei Lianxue had two wounds on her shoulder and ankle, she quickly took out a gauze roll to bandage her. "Lianxue, didn't we agree to wait for us to come and deal with the leader of the Deep Dark Sect together? Why did you rush in alone?"

"It doesn't matter, I can handle it. Yunluo, look, I have solved it..."

"You…" Speechless, Xiao Yunluo sighed and helped her bandage the wound on her shoulder. Looking at the corpse of the demonic cultivator that looked like someone had taken revenge on it, she asked, "Lianxue, are you angry?"

Pei Lianxue shook her head blankly. "No~"

"You are angry."

Pei Lianxue turned away and answered with puffed cheeks. "No."

"Sigh..."

Xiao Yunluo sighed again.

Since the Black Star Sect occupied the Brilliance City, the disciples of the Western Region, the Demon Clan, and the Justice Division had been divided into small teams spreading through the Eastern Region, mainly as scouts to gather information about the demonic cultivators and to do guerrilla warfare to harass the various demonic sects.

She, Pei Lianxue, Liang Zhu, and four inner disciples of the Black Star Sect were one of these teams.

Although the task assigned to them was mainly to gather intelligence, Pei Lianxue led them to kill everyone who stood in their way, all the way from Brilliance City to the border of the Blood River.

Although they did not encounter any Deification cultivators along the way, they killed nearly four hundred demonic cultivators of different cultivation levels relying only on seven people, and now they had taken down the Deep Dark Sect, which Elder Lei was supposed to take down with a large force.

Logically speaking, Pei Lianxue's murderous intention should not be so heavy.

However, when resting a few nights ago, Xiao Yunluo heard her muttering about "Big Brother", and corroborating with the experience of the past few months, she understood.

Pei Lianxue was probably very angry because Ye Anping did not take her with him but took Feng Yu Die instead, so she simply used the demonic cultivators as a punching bag.

"Lianxue, why don't we go back to the immortal boat and rest for ten days or half a month? I think something bad will happen to you sooner or later. The Eastern Region is full of dangers. How can you just rush into a demonic sect with just me and Liang Zhu just because you are in a bad mood?" 

Pei Lianxue pouted, then looked at Zhou Minghe. "I won't take you to a very dangerous place. When my brother is not here, I will only kill the weak ones."

? 

More than twenty Nascent Soul cultivators in the Deep Dark Sect-- weak ones? 

Xiao Yunluo wondered what a tough guy was for her, and at this time, Liang Zhu also came up and advised her. "Miss Pei, the other Black Star Sect disciples are still fighting with the demonic cultivators three thousand miles west of the Blood River. The seven of us have come directly to the Blood River. If the demonic cultivators find our location and surround us, no one will be able to come to our help." 

"Oh... If Brother Liang says so, then let's go back?" 

"Well, my storage bags and those of the other disciples are full, so we have to go back and make some space." 

Pei Lianxue nodded. She looked at the corpses around, took out a stack of talismans from the storage bag, then threw them out like a fairy scattering flowers before stepping on her flying sword with the others. 

"Well... Junior Sister Chen, Junior Brother Liu, let's go back." 

"Yes... Sister Pei." 

Boom–

A huge fireball engulfed the High Demon Palace, while seven flying swords flew out of it and rose to a height of a thousand feet. 

Pei Lianxue looked back at her masterpiece, then at the moon in the sky, murmuring, "What are you doing now, Brother... Didn't we agree to meet in the Eastern Region? Why haven't you come yet... And the second idiot..."

"Lianxue, let's go! The disciples of Deep Dark Sect will gather around us soon."

"Oh!"

...

A few days later—

After more than a month of cleaning up, all the demonic cultivators in Heavenly Sorrow City were wiped out. The immortal cultivators who heard the news rushed over from Seven Stars Pass and set up stalls on the streets to sell pills and magic tools.

Because there were spiritual veins all around Heavenly Sorrow City, the Southern Region immortals began to collect spirit stones and build large mines.

However, these messy things were not Ye Anping's business.

For more than a month, Ye Anping basically stayed in the Blood Prison Mansion every day. During the day, he accompanied Feng Yu Die to practice swordsmanship and condense energy, made roasted chicken for her, or took Gu Mingxin shopping on the streets to help her adjust to the hustle and bustle of the immortals' markets.

At night, after finishing her paperwork, Yun Yiyi would bring some wine and food to Ye Anping to relieve her fatigue due to the Sword Sect affairs, and Ye Anping naturally became her massage tool.

… …

The night was hazy, and there were still lights outside the window.

The moonlight poured in from the window sill, hitting Ye Anping and Yun Yiyi who were sitting face to face, hugging each other.

Chirp~~

Yun Yiyi wrapped her arms around Ye Anping's neck, her eyes hazily looking at his charming deep purple eyes under the moonlight, and she asked flirtatiously, "Anping, are you leaving tomorrow? Hmm~"

"Well, the Southern Region immortals have almost cleared out the demonic sects south of the Blood River, and I can cross the river to the Heavenly Demon Sect now... I have rested here for more than a month, and I almost forgot that the immortals and demonic cultivators are still in the middle of a war."

"So..."

Yun Yiyi suddenly felt a little disappointed, and she lowered her head, pouting.

Seeing her like this, Ye Anping shrugged helplessly and pinched her nose. "I've been your gigolo for more than a month, and you still come every day… isn't it enough?"

"How can it be enough? In the past, you and Sister Pei were together every day, but I… I have to wait for a long time every time I see you, and you basically leave after staying for only a few days… I feel that this month has passed so quickly, alas..."

"After the matter in the Eastern Region is over, how about you move to the Hundred Lotus Sect and live there for a few years?"

"...Hmm~"

Yun Yiyi looked down with a blush, then replied, "Anping, you look like a demonic cultivator now~ You abuse this girl every day..."

"It's you who comes to me every day to sleep with me, I can't drive you out, right?"

"Pervert."

"I'm not a pervert..."

Speaking of this, Ye Anping smiled gently and kissed Yun Yiyi's fair shoulder.

However, it was also at this time...

—"Ye Anping~ Is this all you can do? Hmm~~"

Gu Mingxin's mumbling voice reached their ears, causing Ye Anping and Yun Yiyi to turn their heads and look, only to see that she was now lying on the bed, already unconscious, with her legs twitching from time to time.

Before Yun Yiyi came today, Gu Mingxin came over and forced him again...

Then, she became like this.

After Yun Yiyi came in, she didn't care about her. She pushed her aside, covered her with a quilt, and left her there.

Seeing Gu Mingxin like this, Yun Yiyi pursed her lips slightly. "Anping, who is she..."

"The adopted daughter of Heavenly Demon Sect's Lord of Hell, who wants to screw me all day long, and I can't fend her off..."

"A demonic cultivator, what will you do with her in the future? Will you marry her?"

"Let's talk about it later. Anyway, after the matter is settled, there is a high probability that she will live in the Hundred Lotus Sect..."

"Oh, so it's like this..."

In fact, Yun Yiyi had sought out Gu Mingxin privately before to talk, but Gu Mingxin gave her a very scary feeling as if she would draw her sword and chop her directly if she took a step closer.

But now, looking at Gu Mingxin who was lying on the side, she wondered if this person was the type who was strong on the outside but weak on the inside.

At this time, an eagle's cry came from outside the window.

In front of the half-opened window, a black-feathered eagle poked its head in.

Seeing the eagle, Yun Yiyi raised her eyebrows. "It is Miss Li's pet... Hmm~"

Boo~~

Yun Yiyi quickly moved off Ye Anping and climbed over Gu Mingxin's back. Then, she took off the jade slip on the eagle's feet and let it fly. She checked the jade slip with her spiritual sense.

Ye Anping also moved to her side and asked, "What is it?"

"It's the news about Sister Pei and Miss Xiao. They..." Yun Yiyi frowned, as if she felt that she had seen it wrong, and read slowly word by word. "Pei Lianxue and Xiao Yunluo brought Liang Zhu and four Black Star Sect disciples from Brilliance City, killing their way to Deep Dark Sect beside the Blood River."

Hearing this, Ye Anping also frowned.

The Deep Dark Sect was a secondary plot in the Eastern Region. In his impression, the sect leader Zhou Minghe was quite difficult to deal with. After all, he was also a gatekeeper BOSS of a dungeon.

"Something happened?"

"No... Miss Li said that the seven of them killed all the people in the Deep Dark Sect... Elder Lei of the Black Star Sect was shocked."

"..."

Hearing this, Ye Anping fell silent.

Although it was a second-rate demonic sect, seven people alone destroyed a whole sect...

"...Huh--"

Ye Anping took the jade slip and glanced up with his spiritual sense. He frowned, feeling that something was wrong.

His sister had made great achievements, and as a brother, he was very pleased, but in the current situation, being famous did not mean wealth and glory.

Back then, Immortal Yun Jian, like his sister now, led a dozen people to kill everyone they encountered in the demonic region. In the end, he even divided the four regions just with his sword, shocking the immortals and demons alike.

Yun Jian was known by the immortals and demonic cultivators because of this incident.

However, it was precisely because of his fame that he was ambushed and killed by many demonic cultivators.

Once this news reached the ears of the Heavenly Demon Sect, they would certainly send many cultivators to inquire about the whereabouts of his sister, and then lure them into a trap, surround and kill them.

For the Immortal Family, this was good news.

After all, the Immortal Family would have again a figure like the Immortal Yun Jian, which would surely boost the morale of the disciples.

However, for him as a brother, this was bad news.

His sister was outstanding in both cultivation and sword skills, but she was still inexperienced. He was really worried that Pei Lianxue might be ambushed...

However, before he left, he specifically asked Xuanji to look after his sister, so there shouldn't be any problem.

But that...

Ye Anping could vaguely sense from this message that his sister's actions seemed to be like throwing a tantrum...

Was it because he took Feng Yu Die with him instead of her?

"Hmm..."

Yun Yiyi looked at Ye Anping's worried expression. "Are you worried?"

"A little, but it shouldn't be a problem. I was planning to meet them later." Ye Anping nodded slowly. "Anyway, we'll take one step at a time. I have to leave tomorrow."

Yun Yiyi nodded, then climbed back in bed and sat back on him.

"Anping, you can use some strength today. Anyway, you are leaving tomorrow, and I only have to deal with paperwork... I have prepared a wheelchair."

"Don't... It's not good."

"No!" Yun Yiyi pouted and pinched Ye Anping's chin. "I told you! I want to sit in a wheelchair!"

"Ah..." Ye Anping lowered his head and shook his head, sighed, and buried his face in her breasts. "As you wish, then..."
