Mortals get a golden finger for immortal cultivation every year

Chapter 116: Senior Sister Nangong, You Don’t Want to…

"Master is unwilling to fight against the Ghost Spirit Sect?"

Nangong Wan frowned slightly and asked.

"After all, the Ghost Spirit Sect is one of the six sects of the Tianluo Kingdom's Demonic Path. Although they don't have a great cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage, Senior Brother Yi of the Tianluo Kingdom's Demonic Path, Hehuan Sect, will probably not let the six sects return to Yue Kingdom easily. However, it also depends on whether the Ghost Spirit Sect will ask him for help. If not, I still have your Senior Sister, two Junior Brothers, and your strength, plus the other five sects, so it won't be difficult to deal with the Ghost Spirit Sect. I just don't know if the other sects in Tianluo Kingdom will help."

The Grand Elder of the Yanyue Sect nodded slightly.

She is very clear about her own magical powers.

This time, he was able to break through to the late Nascent Soul stage and become a great cultivator, all thanks to the unremitting efforts and help of his "traitor" Zhao Shuang. However, after all, he had just made the breakthrough and many of his magical powers were not yet mastered.

Moreover, she did not want others to know Zhao Shuang's magical powers and strength, otherwise it might be a disaster instead of a blessing.

After all, no one would allow such a monstrous evildoer like Zhao Shuang to exist, and nine out of ten people would inevitably attack him.

This kind of thing has happened many times in the Tiannan cultivation world. The most famous one is Master Cangkun and the Divine Transformation Stage cultivator who wanted to unify the entire Tiannan cultivation world ten thousand years ago.

Zhao Shuang is even more evil than them. He acts capriciously and domineeringly, and most importantly, he is lustful and absurd.

Without his restraint, he would have been killed.

It might even implicate the entire Yanyue Sect, so she agreed to persuade Nangong Wan and Zhao Shuang to become Taoist partners, hoping that one more person could restrain Zhao Shuang.

As for refusing to agree to object, that was simply impossible, and the Great Elder of the Yanyue Sect was well aware of this.

Zhao Shuang is the kind of person who will not give up until he achieves his goal. If you don't agree, he will tear down the entire Yanyue Sect.

At that time, it will become awkward and affect the relationship between the two people, which is not a good thing.

"What about Junior Brother? He was able to help Master break through to the late Nascent Soul stage, and in just over a hundred years, he broke through to the middle stage. I believe his magical powers should not be too weak. Even if he is not as good as Master, a late Nascent Soul cultivator, he is probably not much inferior."

Nangong Wan felt that her master understood Zhao Shuang better than she did.

And there must be a special relationship between them. As for what kind of relationship it is, Nangong Wan didn't dare to think too much about it.

"Your junior brother's magical powers surpass mine, but I don't want him to reveal too much. Otherwise, he will become a target of public criticism, which would not be a good thing for him or the entire sect."

The great elder of the Hidden Moon Sect shook his head slightly and explained.

"What? Even more powerful than Master."

Nangong Wan covered her red lips lightly and said in shock.

This did shock her, and unbeknownst to her, it was nothing.

"That's right. So, once exposed, he will most likely become the target of public criticism. By then, the entire Tiannan cultivation world will find it difficult to tolerate the existence of such a cultivator."

"What's more, your junior brother has a capricious and overbearing personality. He won't tolerate anyone disobeying him. If a war really breaks out with the Ghost Spirit Sect, I'm worried that he could wipe out the entire Yue Kingdom Ghost Spirit Sect. No one would be his match."

"By then, there's a good chance that the Tianluo Nation's demonic sect will use this as an excuse to attack him. Even if he has great magical powers, it will be difficult for him to escape, and this won't be a good thing for the entire sect."

"I never thought that this junior fellow disciple would actually make Master so worried."

Nangong Wan's face showed a complicated expression as she smiled bitterly.

"So, Wan'er, I'm sorry I've wronged you this time. I can see that he has quite a bit of affection for you. Otherwise, I wouldn't have proposed becoming your Taoist partner. So, if the thing I'm worried about does happen, please do your best to dissuade him, so that he doesn't offend too many people and cause irreparable disaster that will harm the entire sect."

The Great Elder of the Yanyue Sect sighed and explained.

"Wan'er understands, Master, don't worry. However, Wan'er isn't sure she can persuade Junior Brother, so she can only try her best."

Nangong Wan nodded slightly, having already guessed it in her heart.

After all, the Yanyue Sect needs Zhao Shuang right now, especially since Zhao Shuang has done a great favor to his master, the Grand Elder of the Yanyue Sect.

"Try your best! I always feel that he came back this time not only to inquire about my situation and to become your Taoist partner, but also for other purposes. I just hope that I am not overthinking it."

The Great Elder of Yanyue Sect was filled with worry. If she had known this would happen, she should not have accepted Zhao Shuang. But if she had not accepted Zhao Shuang, how could she advance to the late Nascent Soul stage, not to mention extending her life by hundreds of years.

Therefore, the Great Elder of Yanyue Sect himself couldn't tell whether he was regretting or feeling relieved.

……

Taiyue Mountains of Yue State
"Nothing has changed, but people and things have changed."

Looking at everything in front of him, Zhao Shuang sighed lightly, and then a cold look flashed in his eyes.

"It's a pity that there are so many troublesome flies, which really ruins my mood."

Before he finished speaking, several black-robed monks flew over from a distance. The leader was a man in his thirties. As soon as he saw Zhao Shuang, he immediately spoke respectfully.

"I am a disciple of the Ghost Spirit Sect's True Man Shattered Soul. I wonder what orders you have for me, Senior?"

"So you are disciples of the Ghost Spirit Sect's Soul-Breaking Immortal. What were you doing just now? It seems like you were destroying the mineral veins and medicine garden in the Taiyue Mountains?"

Zhao Shuang asked curiously,
"Since you have seen it, I will not hide it from you. A senior from the Yanyue Sect of Beiliang Kingdom has achieved a breakthrough to the late Nascent Soul stage. Our master has asked us to destroy all the mineral veins and medicinal gardens within the territory of Yue Kingdom one by one before leaving the Yue Kingdom's cultivation world."

The man opened his mouth to explain.

"I see. Then do you know who I am?"

Hearing this, Zhao Shuang chuckled and asked,
"Dare I ask you, senior?"

The man's heart tightened and he spoke quickly.

"I am the cultivator who just returned from the Moon-Blanking Sect, who is in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul."

Zhao Shuang continued to smile and answered in a friendly manner.

"Go and escape."

Before he finished speaking, the man said loudly.

The next moment, countless black air suddenly emerged from his body, protecting his figure. Then two flying forks, one gold and one silver, flew out from the black air and turned into two golden and silver strange pythons, blocking the black air.

At the same time, the gray-robed monk desperately activated his escape technique, turned into a puff of black smoke, and flew backwards, not caring about the lives of the black-robed old man and several other monks.

Seeing this, Zhao Shuang waved his sleeves, and hundreds of sword lights shot out, instantly catching up with the black smoke, and dazzling green light burst out.

The gray-robed monk screamed miserably. Whether it was the golden and silver pythons transformed by the flying fork or the protective black energy transformed by the martial arts, they were all reduced to ashes by the blow of the giant sword. Even the gray-robed monk himself turned into a bloody rain.

As for the other Ghost Spirit Sect monks, they were already scared out of their wits and knelt down to beg for mercy, but unfortunately, it was still useless. They were beheaded by Zhao Shuang like cutting melons.

"Destroying the mineral veins, the medicine garden, and the Ghost Spirit Sect is really a good plan."

Zhao Shuang sneered, then turned into a beam of light and headed towards other mineral veins in Yue State.

……

Three days later, Zhao Shuang, a member of the Qingxu Sect's Mine Vein, watched the fleeing light, a strange glint in his eyes. He saw a woman in her thirties, practicing some strange technique. Although her cultivation level was only at the early stages of the Core Formation stage, her body was now glowing red, her spiritual fire pulsing, like a demonic spirit within the flames. She transformed into a massive fireball, darting away at lightning speed.

Outside the fireball, several other light bands of varying lengths extended directly from the woman's body, flashing with green light. Each movement allowed the woman to instantly escape more than ten feet away. The speed was so fast that it was truly horrifying.

The woman herself was also secretly proud of herself. Her martial arts might be inferior to other top-level martial arts when fighting against the enemy, but in terms of escape techniques, she had an extremely rare wind and fire escape.

In addition, she also practiced a wind-attributed magic weapon called "Piaolingdai", which made her escape technique even more powerful.

She believed that her current escape speed was not much inferior to that of an early Nascent Soul cultivator.

Therefore, even if the person who attacked from behind was a Nascent Soul cultivator, she was confident that she could escape with her life.
However, when the woman was secretly delighted, a rumbling sound came from behind.
Although the sound was not loud and seemed to be coming from far away, it still made the woman stunned and she couldn't help but look back in the red light.

Afterwards, there was nothing in sight, not a single ghost, but the low roar became louder and louder, as if it had already reached nearby in just a short moment.

The woman's pretty face turned pale in an instant, and she looked around in horror, but then she suddenly remembered something, turned around, and rushed away at a speed three times faster than before.

But in this moment of delay, a silver light suddenly flashed in the distance where there was no one just now, and then disappeared. When the silver light lit up again, it was only a hundred feet away.

It was the handsome young man who had killed many Ghost Spirit Sect disciples in one breath. At this moment, the man was staring at her with a smile. She knew the meaning of the fiery look in his eyes very well.

Seeing such a look, she felt relieved instead, stopped, and bowed.

"I pay my respects to you, senior. Do you need my service?" Before she finished her words, her delicate body fell into his arms and disappeared.

……

A month later, Zhao Shuang returned to Yanyue Sect and told the current Grand Elder of Yanyue Sect everything that had happened in Yue Kingdom.

As for the Ghost Spirit Sect's Soul-Breaking Master, he ran a little too fast and he couldn't catch him, so he could only kill many of the Ghost Spirit Sect's disciples in Yue State.

Of course, he didn't kill them all. There were too many of them, and he was too lazy to deal with some of them. It was impossible for him to waste time on such a small matter.

After hearing what Zhao Shuang said, the cold and beautiful face of the Great Elder of Yanyue Sect changed slightly, looking quite complicated.

"The Ghost Spirit Sect actually gave up on the Yue Kingdom's immortal cultivation world. This is unbelievable."

The cold woman originally thought that there would be a big battle, but she didn't expect that the Ghost Spirit Sect would take the initiative to leave the Yue Kingdom's cultivation world, which really surprised her.

"There must be something else going on. Otherwise, they really wouldn't give up the entire Yue Kingdom's cultivation world. Master's advancement to the late Nascent Soul stage is not enough for them to give up."

Zhao Shuang said.

"Looks like we need to send someone to investigate?"

The cold woman nodded in agreement.

"It's better not to do this. Otherwise, it will just be a waste of disciples and elders."

Zhao Shuang shook his head and said.

Because he had already guessed why the Ghost Spirit Sect gave up the entire Yue Kingdom's cultivation world.

Only by worrying about accidents in the Demon Valley would the Ghost Spirit Sect's leader Wang Tiansheng make the plan to abandon the entire Yue Kingdom's cultivation world.

"Junior brother, do you know anything?"

The cold woman asked quickly.

She had complicated feelings about the fact that the former Grand Elder of Yanyue Sect had awakened and broken through to the late Nascent Soul stage. While she sensed that the strength of Yanyue Sect had greatly increased, she was also aware that the power in Yanyue Sect had changed hands.

Even if she is still the Grand Elder of Yanyue Sect,
"I'm not sure, it's just a guess. Senior Sister, don't think too much about it. Anyway, Master is already a late Nascent Soul cultivator. We should hurry up and send someone to the Yue Kingdom to resolve the issue of the mines and medicine garden being destroyed. That way, after Master's ceremony is over, we can return to the Yue Kingdom sooner."

Zhao Shuang suggested, shaking his head.

He had no intention of telling the cold woman about the matters of the Demon Valley and the Ghost Spirit Sect. Even if he did, it would be useless.

It would be better not to tell and let the Ghost Spirit Sect solve the problem of entering the Demon Valley.

As for the opportunities in the Demon Valley, they are naturally his.

Therefore, there is no need to tell the cold woman to avoid any accidents.

"it is good."

The cold woman did not object to Zhao Shuang's words. Although they had never fought each other, she felt that she was definitely no match for Zhao Shuang, even with a magic weapon.

"Well! Then I'll trouble you, Senior Sister."

"Junior brother, you're welcome."

The cold woman smiled and said.

"If there's nothing else, I'll go find Senior Sister Wan'er first."

Zhao Shuang stood up and said goodbye and left the meeting hall of Yanyue Sect.

……

"Senior Sister Wan'er, you don't seem willing to become my Taoist partner?"

In Nangong Wan's cave, Zhao Shuang spoke directly to the point.

"So Junior Brother is not blind. Yes, I really don't want to marry you. Apart from anything else, you just brought a concubine from the Ghost Spirit Sect from Yue Kingdom, which is enough to prove that you are not a good match. However, since Master asked me to, I can only marry you and become your Taoist partner."

Hearing Zhao Shuang's straightforward words, Nangong Wan, who had originally wanted to perfunctorily answer, stopped pretending and spoke softly.

There was a hint of sarcasm in his tone.

"Yes, I did bring another concubine with me, but this is related to my cultivation method. I hope Senior Sister will forgive me. As for the perfect match, I have admired Senior Sister for many years, so how can I say she is not a perfect match?"

Zhao Shuang retorted with a smile.

He was not angry about Nangong Wan's words.

"Huh, really?"

Nangong Wan snorted lightly, unwilling to say anything more.

"Whether it's true or not, I don't want to explain too much, but Senior Sister must become my Taoist partner this time. I hope Senior Sister understands this and doesn't think about sneaking away. That wouldn't be good for either Senior Sister or Master."

"I miss my senior sister, and I don't want anything to happen to my master or the sect, right?"

Zhao Shuang said this with a threatening but smiling face.

"You...are you trying to betray your master and ancestors?"

Nangong Wanyu's expression turned cold and she scolded him.
