Ugly Cultivation Notes

Chapter 337 Open and honest

After Shangguanxue's master, Sheng Qingjun, was trapped in Wuwang Mountain, only Ye Chengan, the ancestor of Yuanying, was left in Xiaoyaozong.

Shangguan Xue was one of the few people who could get close to the ancestor besides the suzerain and others.

Controlling a foundation cultivator is far easier than controlling a golden core cultivator.

Xu Chunniang looked down at him, "When did you collude with Wuwangshan?"

Xie Chang Yuan was silent for a moment, "I only found out in the past two years."

Although he is the parent and son of Hunyuan Daoist, his cultivation level is not even a golden core, and he doesn't understand some core things.

He failed to get important information from Xie Chang Yuan, but he also got a lot of news here and there.

She didn't leave the small world until she couldn't ask much, and found Zhuge Yun.

"What are you talking about, suspecting that Shangguan Xue has a problem?"

Hearing these words, Zhuge Yun couldn't help feeling a little weird in his heart.

His two junior sisters didn't get along well in private, they ran to him one by one to complain.

Xu Chunniang didn't say much, and with a light wave of her hand, she saw a faint black mist wrapped around her wrist, adding a bit of treachery out of thin air.

Zhuge Yun's pupils shrank suddenly, and he stared at Heiwu with unprecedented seriousness.

He had never seen this black mist before, but he had a vague premonition that this thing might be the demon soul that Shangguan Xue was talking about.

"The day my brother went to challenge the City Lord's Mansion, I was contaminated with this thing."

Xu Chunniang's expression was calm, and she told the whole story about someone secretly attacking her.

"So, the demon soul didn't succeed in possession, and was imprisoned by you?"

A strange color flashed in Zhuge Yun's eyes, as if meeting her for the first time, he sized her up several times from beginning to end.

He doesn't know much about demon souls.

He only knows that this method is extremely difficult to guard against, and once possessed, it is difficult to get rid of it.

Shangguanxue might as well have been possessed by a demon soul back then, but it was Ye Chengan, the elder of Yuanying Taishang, who personally shot it.

If this is the case, it can only be suppressed, not completely expelled.

Because the demon soul is entangled with part of Shangguan Xue's soul, if it is forcibly expelled, it will damage her soul.

Xu Chunniang nodded, "Anyway, I'm not possessed by a demonic soul. But I felt the same movement of a demonic soul in Senior Sister Shangguan before."

"How can I trust you?"

Zhuge Yun has actually believed more than half of it, but the matter is of great importance, so he remains cautious.

Xu Chunniang remained silent, but saw a cluster of small flames rising from her fingertips, burning strands of black mist into ashes.

At the same time, the demon soul in her body screamed loudly.

"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts, don't burn it, don't burn it!"

Xu Chunniang frowned, but she didn't want to burn the demon soul, so she stopped.

The flames disappeared suddenly, and the black mist took the opportunity to shrink back with a "whoosh".

"Now, brother, should you believe me?"

Zhuge Yun stared at the fire with scorching eyes, and did not look away until it completely disappeared.

He smiled softly, "Since junior sister has been cleared of suspicion, I can trust it. But you can rest assured that the demon soul in Shangguan junior sister's body has been suppressed."

As he spoke, he briefly explained the ins and outs.

From accidentally discovering the demon soul on Shangguan Xue, to having doubts about Hunyuan City, and finally coming here to find out.

"So, the senior brother fought in the city lord's mansion that day, was he acting?"

Xu Chunniang raised her eyebrows. She had some vague guesses before, but she didn't fully understand until now.

As soon as this matter was mentioned, Zhuge Yun became very angry, and always felt that he had lost a lot.

"I originally thought that the City Lord's Mansion was just trying to test it out, and took advantage of Xie Chang Yuan's hand to take the opportunity to abolish me, but it turned out to be against you."

"Then brother's Dao heart is damaged?"

"Of course it's pretending."

Zhuge Yun rolled his eyes, "How can a cultivator indulge in love? If the talent is poor, it's fine if you can't make an inch of practice. I don't want to ruin my journey to immortality."

Xu Chunniang nodded with a smile, "Since it's an act, is the injury that has been lying on the bed for half a year also an act?"

Hearing this, Zhuge Yun's eyelids twitched violently.

He forgot about it.

He coughed dryly, his eyes were a little vacant, "It's not all, I was seriously injured at the time, so my junior sister probably didn't forget it."

However, Xu Chunniang, who was sitting opposite, refused to let him go easily.

"Then senior brother did not hesitate to pretend to be sick and went to Tianyuan Secret Realm with great effort. What did he do?"

Zhuge Yun paused for a few breaths, then smiled and said, "I also want to know what will be gained from my junior sister entering the secret realm even if she pretends to be dizzy."

The two stared wide-eyed, and finally Zhuge Yun took the lead in choosing to be open and honest.

"So, you and Senior Sister Shangguan are partners in cheating on Xie Changyuan?"

Xu Chunniang's eyes were strange, thinking of the captive who was still lying in her small world.

"Tricking him was just incidental. I mainly went there to find things, but unfortunately something happened in that place... You know, I didn't find anything anyway."

"Then how did the juniors who followed Senior Sister Shangguan die?"

Zhuge Yun showed a hint of helplessness.

"It's not safe for the three of them to stay in the City Lord's Mansion, so Junior Sister Shangguan brought them into the secret realm and failed to protect them. But I also gave Xie Chang Yuan a hard time and made him lose a lot of people, which is my revenge."

Xu Chunniang inexplicably remembered the time when Xie Changyuan and his party met those two golden core stage snakes.

Originally, they had a chance to get rid of the two big snakes. It seemed that the female cultivator in red caused some commotion and fell into a fierce battle.

Thinking of this, the way she looked at this senior brother suddenly became subtle.

Zhuge Yun didn't notice it, and just sighed lightly.

"The evil cultivators at Wuwang Mountain used formations to trap people from the five major sects in a secret realm. Right now, Hunyuan City has attacked my Xiaoyao Sect several times, and the plan is very big.

I missed this time, I don’t know when I will be able to get the Breaking Talisman, and rescue the Supreme Elder and Suzerain from the secret realm..."

"Boundary breaking talisman?"

Zhuge Yun glanced at her, "Oh, I forgot you didn't know. Apart from my Xiaoyao Sect, many monks from the other four major sects also came to go to the secret realm to obtain the boundary-breaking talisman, but those who accepted this task , mostly true..."

Having said this, he suddenly froze, staring blankly at the golden talisman in front of him.

"Is this it? I happen to have it in my hand."

Zhuge Yun's heart was beating so fast that it almost overwhelmed his voice, "How did you get it?"

He guessed that Junior Sister Xu had benefited from the Heavenly Dao Palace, but he didn't think about the boundary breaking talisman at all.

After all, those who received this task were all true disciples of various sects, and Junior Sister Xu was not a true disciple, so naturally she did not receive the task.

But why does she have this thing in her hand?

Xu Chunniang put away the boundary breaking talisman as usual, "I just asked if there is anything that can break through the secret boundary by force, so I got this."

Due to the rules of Tiandao Palace, outsiders are not allowed to talk about matters related to it, so she was vague, but Zhuge Yun understood.

There is no way out again in the poor mountains and rivers, and in the blink of an eye, the willows are dark and the flowers are bright again.
