My transformation into a beautiful girl started with a hemorrhage.

Blood and flesh were scattered everywhere, and the nauseating stench of blood could be smelled from dozens of meters away.

Looking at the dozen or so dead people, Hui murmured to herself, "I never thought Xiong Chuan would be so successful in his dealings with people, that so many people would be willing to die for him. But it's all meaningless."

Hui is undoubtedly the focus of everyone's attention right now.

At that moment, Nangong Bingqing, who was not far away, finally recognized Hui and exclaimed in surprise, "It's her!"

Xiahou Dun asked, "Nangong's niece-in-law, do you know this woman?"

Ancestor Tianji chimed in, "She wouldn't happen to be your senior sister, would she?"

As experts at the Innate Realm, they could naturally tell whether Hui was an old monster or truly young, whether he had broken through to the Innate Realm or was simply recovering his cultivation.

The result was that, although it was hard to believe, they were certain that Huizhen was just a young woman who had reached the age of marriage and had just broken through to the Innate Realm.

At first, they thought: This woman might be a disciple of Tiandaozi!

At such a young age, the only person in the world who could achieve this would probably be Tian Daozi, who is at the Celestial Realm.

Although I've heard that Tiandaozi only has one disciple, Nangong Bingqing.

But how can hearsay be considered absolute?

And just by looking at Nangong Bingqing, you can tell that the old monster who has lived for hundreds of years likes such a pretty girl.

It wouldn't be surprising if Nangong Bingqing had more junior sisters or senior sisters.

This is also why they didn't immediately take action against Hui after Xuan Tian and Yu Feichen were killed, because they were afraid of harming her.

Nangong Bingqing said, "Senior sister?! Don't joke around. She is just a lowly maid. She was a dancer raised by my Nangong family since childhood. She tried to poison me because she was jealous of Brother Wei's affection for me, but Brother Wei beat her to death. I just don't know why she didn't die."

This statement came out.

The news spread like wildfire, and soon everyone knew, causing an uproar among the crowd.

"A dancer?! Using a master of innate level as a dancer, just what kind of power does the Nangong family have?"

"Hey, you're focusing on the wrong thing. Didn't you realize? Nangong Bingqing is talking about Consort Hui, who's rumored to be a seductive woman who brought ruin to the country."

"Consort Hui? It really is her. No wonder she looked so familiar."

Some noticed, "If she is Consort Hui, doesn't that mean she's only...fourteen years old this year?! A fourteen-year-old with innate talent! Wow—"

"Me too. I thought she was a seventy or eighty-year-old woman who used some special technique to pretend to be like this."

"How exactly did she break through to the Innate Realm at the age of fourteen? Even a Martial God descending to earth wouldn't be this powerful!"

"Who knows? Maybe she's obtained some incredible inheritance. She just killed two Xiantian cultivators using such bizarre methods!"

"That's true, such methods are simply unheard of..."

"Speaking of which, don't you find it strange that a grandmaster would try to poison Miss Nangong out of jealousy, and most importantly, he actually failed?"

"Yeah, and even beating someone to death?! That's a joke. Who's so powerful as to beat a grandmaster to death?"

"I don't understand, I really don't understand."

······

Leng Yichen stared intently at Hui. Just now, he was still unable to let go of the matter of the Xuan Tian Ancestor's death and vowed to avenge him.

But hearing the whispers of those around him, his heart was filled with bitterness: 'A fourteen-year-old at the Innate Realm! He himself entered the ranks of first-rate martial artists at twenty-four, considered by the world to be the most talented person in a thousand years, with a fifty percent chance of breaking through to the Innate Realm. But…'

Thinking of this, Leng Yichen looked at the petite figure in the distance again, and suddenly seemed to have aged ten years.

Qian Chuanxue also looked at the figure in the arena, her heart filled with mixed feelings.

In the past, she might have gloated or been jealous of Hui, but now, she had no such thoughts at all.

The gap is too large. She herself is still far from becoming a Grandmaster, while the other party... has already reached the Innate Realm.

The difference was so great that she couldn't even muster the desire to compare.

······

Xiahou Dun was somewhat at a loss after hearing Nangong Bingqing's words. At this moment, Li Fuguo came to his side and secretly used his internal energy to transmit his voice to Xiahou Dun, telling him the whole story.

This method of transmitting sound through internal energy was also something that Xia Yuyu, the founding emperor of the Xia Dynasty, plundered from the eight major sects.

After learning the whole story, Xiahou Dun looked at Xia Wuwei with the same look he had when he looked at a dead man.

He had already decided that once everything was settled, his good-for-nothing nephew could be buried in the imperial mausoleum.

At this moment, with many hints, Xia Wuwei finally remembered who Hui was. However, he wished he hadn't remembered.

He was so frightened by Xiahou Dun's murderous gaze that he trembled and leaned back, hoping to minimize his presence as much as possible.

Xiahou Dun and Tianji learned of Hui's identity.

Although I don't know how she was able to break through to the Innate Realm at the age of fourteen, since she has nothing to do with Tiandaozi, then the score from earlier should be settled.

The Celestial Elder questioned in a loud voice, "Was it you who killed Xuan Tian?"

After Tianji finished speaking, his sword intent became so tangible that it enveloped the entire world, and the scene was about to erupt.

Chapter 232 Heavenly Blade Battle Technique

Hui glanced at the hostile-looking Tianji Ancestor and the critically injured Ji Dachuan beside him.

After regaining her memories, Hui now fully understands her purpose in coming to this world—to collect souls.

She just hadn't expected that this world was an ancient one. In a world lacking weapons of mass destruction, it would be impossible for her to collect souls on a large scale by herself alone.

Hui originally wanted to leave this world, but after absorbing Yu Feichen's soul and obtaining information about the dragon vein, she wanted the dragon vein.

Because, if I'm not mistaken, a dragon vein is an extraordinary thing!

However, Hui glanced at Tianji and Xiahou Dun, knowing that the two of them would not let her leave.

'Since we're going to make a move, fine, I'll take care of you as quickly as possible, then go devour the dragon vein. But before that, I need to…'

Having made up her mind, Hui Yanran smiled and looked at Ancestor Tianji, raising her slender, jade-like finger to her lips: "Could you wait a moment?"

"Wait a moment?!"

Neither Tianji nor Xiahou Dun knew what Hui was up to.

Hui stood there motionless, her beautiful eyes fixed on Ji Dachuan.

Upon seeing this, everyone turned to look at Ji Dachuan, their minds racing with various thoughts.

"Could this Ji Dachuan be having an affair with Consort Hui?"

"This guy is so lucky with women! How come he's involved with all the most beautiful women in the world?"

"Do modern beauties really like Ji Dachuan's style?"

······

Nangong Bingqing pouted and asked Ji Dachuan with an unfriendly expression, "Brother Ji, what's going on? Do you know that vixen?"

Ji Dachuan recognized Hui as well. He coughed up another mouthful of blood and bits of flesh, and his weak voice rang out: "I saved her once from a local thug."

Everyone was stunned.

He saved her once?!

It still came from thugs and hooligans. Hey, are all thugs and hooligans this powerful these days?

Daring to flirt with a grandmaster.

Many people speculated that this might be a tactic used by the beauty to deliberately attract Ji Dachuan's attention.

Why didn't I have such good fortune?

·······

Tianji and Xiahou Dun were unsure of Hui's intentions, but Xiahou Dun was very patient. He wanted to wait until Hui and Tianji were both severely injured.

After his earlier outburst of anger, Tianji calmed down. Although he still stared at Hui with a hostile expression, he remained vigilant towards Xiahou Dun.

At this moment, Ji Dachuan finally ran out of energy and his life came to an end.

He should have died long ago. His heart was shattered, and his internal organs had been rotted into a pile of flesh by the fire poison. He was still alive only because his wish was not fulfilled. He had been holding on until now with just a breath of life. Now, Nangong Bingqing, whom he had been longing for, had returned to his side. Although the time they had together was short, he was already satisfied.

"Qing'er, I may not be able to walk with you any further. You'll be alone from now on..."

"No, Brother Ji, you'll be alright. Oh, right, there's also the Spirit Soul Pill." Nangong Bingqing was at a loss and directly asked the Heavenly Ancestor beside her, "Senior, where is the Spirit Soul Pill?"

Tianji looked troubled. This Spirit Soul Pill was Xuantian's treasure. How did he know?

"Well, I don't know where Xuan Tian put the Spirit Soul Pill either."

"You don't know?! How could you not know? Aren't you all in cahoots?"

It was only because she went to Nangong Bingqing that she dared to speak to a Xiantian like that; otherwise, she would have been dead long ago.

Ji Dachuan held Nangong Bingqing's hand one last time and said, "Qing'er, don't make things difficult for your senior anymore. After I die, don't stay in the palace anymore; it's not suitable for you. Don't stay by Emperor Xia's side either; he's not the right person for you. If you meet someone who truly cares about you in the future, never let go. If you can't tell if he's sincere, test him for ten years... Qing'er, it's so good to have met you in this life!"

"Brother Ji, don't say anything. You'll be alright. Didn't you say you were going to marry Qing'er?"

However, Ji Dachuan never responded again.

He... is dead!

After devouring the soul of the Xuan Tian Ancestor, Hui knew that the so-called Spirit Soul Pill had been used up hundreds of years ago. It was just an expedient measure by the Xuan Tian Ancestor to invite Nangong Bingqing to the Xuan Tian Sect.

Therefore, Ji Dachuan's death was inevitable.

Furthermore, when Ji Dachuan heard about Nangong Bingqing's news at the tavern, he abandoned Hui and left. From that moment on, the two became like strangers.

As soon as Ji Dachuan died, his soul was enveloped and completely digested by a mass of darkness that spread from Hui's body as it dissipated. However, without being in a higher dimension, one cannot see what happened.

'I've got it, the inheritance of the Heavenly Blade.' Hui felt the new sword technique inheritance in his head.

Hui, who had never learned how to use a knife before, suddenly became a master of the way of the knife.

Hui and Ji Dachuan died not for anything else, but for the Heavenly Blade inheritance he possessed.

After Hui devoured the souls of Xuan Tian and Yu Feichen, two masters of the Innate Realm, he learned that Innate Realm martial artists needed special combat techniques, known as Innate Combat Techniques.

A good battle strategy plays a crucial role in the combat power of a martial artist with innate abilities.

For example, Yu Feichen, who was born with no innate skill in offensive combat, was given only the Ethereal Willow Floss Movement Technique by Xiahou Dun after breaking through to the innate level with the help of the dragon vein, hoping that he could buy time.

It's not that this movement technique is useless; on the contrary, it's very advanced. It's just that without offensive combat tactics, relying solely on dodging means that even a single mistake will come at a heavy price, and defeat will be inevitable sooner or later.
