The spirit boat glided through the clouds, and Qin Yu kept his divine sense locked on the rear to make sure no tail was following.

Kui Wu sat in the corner of the spirit boat, his hands clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white.

"Boss, my sister has been in the Xuan Yin Sect for a year now. Those beasts not only cultivate with her, but also draw her blood every day. The blood of our demon race is a great tonic for cultivators."

Qin Yu frowned upon hearing this.

Kui Wu's younger sister also inherited the bloodline of the Kui Niu, a rare bloodline even among demons. The Xuan Yin Sect held onto her tightly, not only for dual cultivation but also for her demon blood.

"What is your sister's cultivation level now?"

"He was a third-rank demon cultivator before he was captured; I wonder how many of him are left now."

Kui Wu's voice was somewhat hoarse.

“Those bastards draw blood every few days. Even if my sister has a good constitution, she can’t withstand that kind of torture.”

Three hours later, the spirit boat landed on a desolate mountain twenty miles outside the Xuan Yin Sect.

Qin Yu scanned the surroundings with his divine sense and found that the Xuan Yin Sect's protective array was fully activated, and the entire mountain gate was shrouded in a light purple light curtain.

"Boss, Huang Lingtian must have returned. The mountain-protecting formation is so fully activated to prevent anyone from causing trouble."

Kui Wu analyzed.

Qin Yu didn't speak. He took out the Thousand Machine Veil from his storage ring and put it on his face, instantly transforming into a different persona.

This face belonged to an outer disciple of the Xuan Yin Sect whom he had seen in the city yesterday. He was in his thirties, with an ordinary appearance—the kind of person you wouldn't notice in a crowd.

"You all go into the spirit tower first, I'll go in alone to scout ahead."

Qin Yu took Kui Wu and Ye Qingxue inside, then circled around to the main entrance of the Xuan Yin Sect from another direction.

The mountain-protecting formation had opened a gap at the main gate, and quite a few disciples were going in and out, so it seemed that the mountain was not completely sealed off.

"Stop, what are you doing?"

The gatekeeper stopped Qin Yu.

"Reporting to Senior Brother, I have been ordered to go out and gather herbs, and I am now returning to the sect to report back."

Qin Yu pulled out a token from his pocket and showed it to him. He had taken this token from an unlucky fellow yesterday, and it would come in handy.

After the gatekeeper verified the token, he waved his hand.

"Go inside. Something big has happened in the sect recently, and they're searching for people everywhere. Behave yourself."

Qin Yu walked into the mountain gate with his head down, but he was pondering the words spoken by the gatekeeper.

Something terrible has happened? Could it be that news has spread that Huang Lingtian was injured by Zhu Zhen?
The Xuan Yin Sect was much larger than Qin Yu had imagined, with thirteen main peaks, each with its own halls and pavilions, and at least three to four thousand disciples.

As Qin Yu walked, he used his divine sense to explore and quickly located several key positions.

Kui Wu's sister was imprisoned on the innermost mountain peak, which was called Demon Locking Peak. It was used to imprison demon cultivators and demon beasts and was the most heavily guarded.

Huang Lingtian and Zhuge Chuchu were on another mountain peak, in a place called Xuan Yin Palace, which was the sect leader's bedroom.

However, to Qin Yu's surprise, besides Zhuge Chuchu, there was another acquaintance by Huang Lingtian's side.

Dreamy Clouds.

She was wearing a very light and thin long dress, and she looked beautiful and alluring.

"interesting."

Qin Yu curled a cold smile at the corner of his lips and quickened his pace toward the Xuan Yin Palace.

He decided to go to the Xuan Yin Palace to check the situation first. If he could kill Huang Lingtian while he was weak, rescuing people later would be much easier.

As they approached the Xuan Yin Palace, Qin Yu suddenly stopped.

A woman's cries came from ahead, along with Huang Lingtian's sinister laughter.

"Zhuge Chuchu, you think you can escape? Those two good-for-nothings from the Shenwang Sect have already been wiped out by me. Now no one can save you." "Let me go! I am the young lady of the Shenwang Sect. If you dare touch me, the Shenwang Sect will not let you get away with it!"

"Shenwangmen is nothing! I'll show you right now what the rules of Xuanyin Sect are."

Qin Yu scanned the situation inside the hall with his divine sense. Huang Lingtian was pressing Zhuge Chuchu down on a bed, and her clothes were already half torn open.

Standing to the side, Meng Qianyun remained calm, even with a faint smile on her lips, as if she were watching a play.

Qin Yu frowned.

Qin Yu had already guessed that Zhuge Chuchu possessed the Profound Yin Sacred Body and that Huang Lingtian was eager to cultivate with her to restore his cultivation.

But to his surprise, Meng Qianyun was just watching from the side, without making any attempt to stop him.

This woman is more cunning than he imagined.

Just as they were about to rush in, the palace doors suddenly opened, and Meng Qianyun walked out.

Her gaze seemed to casually sweep over the spot where Qin Yu was hiding, paused for a moment, and then looked away.

"Sect Master, there seems to be some commotion outside. I'll go check it out."

Huang Lingtian's voice came from inside.

"Go and come back quickly, don't ruin my good time."

Meng Qianyun responded and walked towards Qin Yu.

Qin Yu's heart sank. This woman's perception was stronger than he had anticipated. He had clearly concealed all his presence; how had she discovered him?
"Come out, Qin Yu."

Meng Qianyun walked behind the artificial hill where Qin Yu was hiding and said softly.

"Your Thousand-Mechanism Veil may fool others, but it cannot fool me. You possess a unique scent, one that is distinctly worldly and cannot be detected on the people of Martial Emperor City."

Knowing he couldn't hide any longer, Qin Yu simply stepped forward: "Meng Qianyun, are you saying you're prepared to go all the way with Huang Lingtian?"

"What do you mean by going down a dead end? I was just using him."

Meng Qianyun's lips curled up slightly: "Huang Lingtian has the Ten Thousand Soul Banner, and he is also the Reincarnation Martial Emperor. He has many secrets. I can get more benefits by following him than by following the Sword Sect."

Qin Yu sneered: "So you just stood by and watched him force himself on Zhuge Chuchu?"

"So what? What does Zhuge Chuchu have to do with me? She deserves her bad luck; it's her own fault for being targeted by Huang Lingtian."

Meng Qianyun's tone was very calm, as if she were talking about something perfectly normal.

"Besides, Huang Lingtian's cultivation will increase greatly after he cultivates with the Xuan Yin Sacred Body. Wouldn't it be more worthwhile for me to find a way to absorb his cultivation at that time?"

Qin Yu narrowed his eyes.

This woman is indeed ruthless; she even schemes against her own allies, let alone others.

"Aren't you afraid I'll tell Huang Lingtian all this?"

"You will not."

Meng Qianyun shook her head.

"Because you and Huang Lingtian are mortal enemies, you can't wait for him to suffer. I'm telling you this now because I want to make a deal with you."

"What deal?"

"You help me hold off Huang Lingtian so he can't cultivate with Zhuge Chuchu. In return, I'll tell you about the situation at Demon Locking Peak and help you rescue Kui Wu's sister."

Qin Yu stared at Meng Qianyun for several seconds.

How did you know I was going to save Kui Wu's sister?

"Qin Yu, you have a minotaur with you. The whole Martial Emperor City knows that Kui Wu's sister is imprisoned in the Xuan Yin Sect. Why did you come here if not to rescue her?"

Meng Qianyun's analysis was flawless: "So, are you going to make this deal or not?" (End of Chapter)
