Jiang Youning and the other two were not in a hurry to leave. After a while, when the aftermath of the explosion had dissipated a little, they came to the bottom of the cliff again.

Fu Yunsheng used herself as a fuse to blow up the entire valley, so she would definitely not survive.

But just because she couldn't survive didn't mean that others would definitely die.

So Jiang Youning and the other two came down this time specifically to finish off the enemy.

Killing someone without finishing him off is a sign of stupidity. Fu Yunsheng is already dead, so she will come to help.

"Master, master, there is a living person in front." Bai Bai's voice sounded in Jiang Youning's ears.

Following Bai Bai's instructions, Jun Qingyu and Gu Wuwang worked together to dig through the rubble, and sure enough, they found a dying person inside.

Because of the explosion, the man's body was covered in blood and his original appearance could not be seen.

But this person seemed to know Jiang Youning. The moment he saw her, he first widened his eyes, then opened his mouth and stretched out his hand as if to ask for help.

Seeing this, Jiang Youning didn't hesitate at all, raised his hand and stabbed the man in the throat with his sword.

Next, with Bai Bai's help, they found several people who were seriously injured in the explosion, and then killed them one by one.

At the same time, inside Xing Zhicheng.

Qiu Yue came to the secret base located underground in the Xingzhicheng City Lord’s Mansion.

Looking at the environment here, Qiu Yue frowned and said with disdain, "Does it have to be so horrible here?"

The environment of this secret base was very dark and claustrophobic, and the only light came from a few scattered candles on the wall.

Through these faint lights, one can vaguely see various evil spirit decorations hanging on the surrounding walls, each of which is terrifying enough to be described as horrifying.

In this dim environment, the horror of these decorations increases exponentially, to the point where ordinary people would be so frightened that they couldn't sleep after just one look at them.

However, if you observe for yourself, you will find that these decorations are not ordinary decorations, but are made by real people one by one.

In front of Qiu Yue, a tall young man in a long robe with sunken cheeks walked out from further inside.

The young man slowly came to Qiu Yue and bowed respectfully, "Greetings, Saint Lady."

Qiu Yue looked at the man in front of her, and a hint of disgust flashed across her eyes.

"What is the matter that called me here?"

Hearing this, the young man smiled slightly and said, "Of course I want to show you my research results, Saint Lady."

Qiu Yue frowned slightly, forcibly suppressed the disgust in her heart, and said coldly, "Then hurry up, don't waste my time."

The young man seemed not to notice Qiu Yue's impatience and a bright smile appeared on his face.

Then he shouted from the direction behind him, "Come out quickly and show it to the Saint Lady."

As soon as he finished speaking, a heavy sound of footsteps suddenly sounded.

A moment later, a man with a swollen body and gray-green skin walked out.

From this person's facial features, Qiu Yue could barely recognize that this person should be a woman, but there were only two or three sparse hairs left on the top of her head, and the facial features were squeezed together due to swelling.

"You called me here just to show me a monster?" Qiu Yue took a few steps back and said angrily.

"How can this be a monster? It is a perfect puppet that I have cultivated with countless efforts and is specially dedicated to Her Majesty the Saint." Hearing the man's words, Qiu Yue was angry at first, but then she caught a key piece of information in his words.

puppet!
The last time I heard about puppets was when Dean Yun Zong mentioned them.

The talisman genius who had once become famous in Yunzhou was turned into a puppet by his teacher, who provided them with talismans continuously.

The final result was that Qiu Shui College was wiped out overnight.

But if this matter really needs to be investigated, it can only be said that Qiu Shui Academy has brought it upon itself.

After all, if you put yourself in their shoes, anyone who is turned into a puppet would want to chop the instigator into pieces.

Qiu Yue hid the doubt in her eyes, looked up at the man, and sneered, "It's specially given to me, why do I need such a thing? It's so ugly?"

Hearing this, the young man smiled brightly and said, "Don't worry, Saint Lady. She won't stay like this forever. In two days, she will be able to recover to her normal human appearance."

"Since it will take two days to recover, why do you give it to me now?" Qiu Yue looked at the man coldly, with murderous intent in her eyes.

This murderous intent was not fake; the person in front of her really disgusted her.

"The Saint Lady is about to return to Yunzhou, so I can't wait to... ask the Saint Lady to punish me."

Qiu Yue frowned, "When did I say I wanted to return to Yunzhou?"

"You don't know?" The young man looked up. "Two days ago, the Great Elder sent a message, saying that you should return to Yunzhou as soon as possible."

Hearing this, Qiu Yue sneered, "If he tells me to go back, I will go back. Is he the Saint or am I the Saint? He likes to give orders so much, why not let him be the Saint?"

Having said that, Qiu Yue turned around and walked outside.

He returned to the room and drove all the maids out. Then the sound of something falling and fighting was heard in the room.

The sound continued for half an hour, until there was no more room for noise. Qiu Yue finally stopped and sat down on the chair exhausted, with a calm and cute expression on her face.

At this moment, there was a voice in Qiu Yue's mind urging her to return to Yunzhou as soon as possible, as there was no mission she had not completed.

It was this voice again. It was because of this voice that she chose to leave the Demon Realm and return to Yunzhou alone.

She originally wanted to find her parents to find out what was going on, but after learning about her situation, her parents seemed like a different person.

Then, she was brought before an old man, whom her parents respectfully called the Great Elder.

Under the auspices of the Great Elder, she was semi-forced to participate in a memory revival ceremony.

After the ceremony, there was an extra memory in her mind that did not belong to her, or rather, consciousness.

As soon as this consciousness appeared, it tried to take over control of her body. Even though it failed later, it still had a certain impact on her.

Somehow, she felt that she should be responsible for the future of Yunzhou and Xing Zhicheng, but she was not sure what kind of responsibility she should take.

Because of this mysterious guidance, Qiu Yue became a saint unknowingly.

From the few words of the Great Elder and her parents, Qiu Yue understood that they wanted to restore Yunzhou's former glory and complete what Yunzhou had not accomplished before, and they wanted to do it under her leadership.
