"If you act recklessly again this time and don't follow the plot, then at worst we'll both be doomed! I won't serve you anymore."

Yu Xiang did not respond, as if she was not listening to what it was saying. She just stared blankly in the direction where Chen Yin left.

After a long while, she said to herself, "Is this... the last time we meet?"

"Brother. Although I don't have time to tell you in person."

"But Xiang'er is really happy to meet Senior Brother."

The time spent on Yushan Mountain was the happiest time in Xiang'er's life.

"Xiang'er actually only had one wish in the end."

Her eyelashes slowly closed, and she murmured silently:

"I hope that you can meet a girl you like enough in the future."

"Love her as much as you love Xiang'er."

"Let her take Xiang'er's place... and stay by Brother's side forever."

She recited very quietly, as if talking to herself.

This time, the system didn't make a sound to disturb her.

After saying all this, Yu Xiang slowly opened her eyes, and it was as if a star had died in her eyes.

"Let's go." Her tone became slightly cold, and she turned around expressionlessly and put the mask on her face.

"...Go to the Demonic Sect's main altar."

54. No one can save a soft-hearted person

Not long after Chen Yin left, he stopped again, turned his head and stared at the restaurant thoughtfully.

...Xiang'er sent me away in this way, obviously she was going to take the next step.

If I'm not mistaken, it should be related to the magic way.

Now that Luo Qiaoqiao and Shen Shuanglian have not brought any news about Changli Palace, it is time for him to focus entirely on the Demonic Path.

So he found an empty corner, put on a mask, and disappeared into the street.

A moment later, in a very hidden antique shop in Xiangcheng.

The store was deserted, with only an old man wearing reading glasses sitting at the counter.

The old man's eyes and ears seemed to be not very sharp. People came and went at the door, but he remained unresponsive as if he was asleep.

The door was gently pushed open, and a gentle voice asked, "Old man, are there any treasures in the store?"

The old man seemed not to hear it, so the owner of the voice repeated it again.

The old man slowly opened his cloudy eyes, glanced at the visitor, and said in a hoarse voice: "Nothing, please go back."

"Can I just walk around?"

"...please."

Chen Yin, wearing a mask, nodded slightly, then wandered around the store aimlessly.

Although this antique shop looks small, it is actually very deep. A long and narrow corridor goes all the way to the back of the store, with rows of shelves on both sides.

Chen Yin pretended to be bored and wandered around, moving back and forth between the shelves. After a moment, he stopped in front of a hidden shelf.

There is a jade sculpture on the shelf.

Chen Yin twisted the sculpture slightly, and a narrow passage appeared behind it. Chen Yin turned his head to look at the old man at the door, and then slowly walked into the passage.

The old man seemed not to see it and continued to doze off.

The passage is very long and narrow, a bit similar to the magic branch in Liuyun City, and leads to a place deep underground.

Chen Yin walked up the long stairs slowly and then stopped in front of a hall at the end of the passage.

...It is more impressive than the Demonic Sect's altar in Floating Cloud City. Chen Yin made a comparison in his mind.

Pushing open the door of the hall and entering, the entire hall was empty, except for an empty main seat, there were only some sound-transmitting jade stones and scrolls placed on the ground on both sides.

After Chen Yin entered the hall, a figure jumped out of the void beside him and said, "Master, you are here."

"Has no one come here?"

"Yeah. The Demonic Sect's altar here is really deserted. It doesn't even have guardian elders guarding it like the Floating Cloud City."

Chen Yin casually picked up the sound transmission jade and scroll on the ground and began to look through them.

After flipping through it for a while, his expression gradually changed.

"……I see."

"Hmm?" Luo Luo wagged his tail curiously.

"It's not that there is no one guarding the branch altar here."

Chen Yin said word by word: "They all left a few days ago."

On the scroll in his hand, there were a row of bright red characters written:

...The afterlife sacrifice is about to be held, and all elders and above should quickly return to the main altar.

"Underworld Sacrifice?" Luo Luo tilted his head, "What does this mean?"

"I don't know." Chen Yin shook his head, "Maybe it's some kind of ritual activity of the devil."

Being able to recall all the demon cultivators above the rank of elder to the main altar, it seems that the scale of this activity is quite large.

"I just don't know if there are any clues to the location of the Demon Sect's main altar here."

Having said that, Chen Yin flipped through the scroll again, trying to find some clues from it.

At this moment, an old voice sounded behind him: "Young man, are you lost?"

Chen Yin raised his head and saw the hunchbacked old man who was at the door before.

"Yes." After just one glance, Chen Yin retracted his gaze and continued to flip through the scroll aimlessly. "The location of the Demon Sect's main altar is really hidden. I don't even know where to find it."

"If you can't find it, why bother looking for it?"

The old man's dry smile was somewhat sinister: "Aren't you afraid...of losing your life?"

The next moment, an overwhelming pressure emanated from the old man, and pressed down towards Chen Yin with great momentum.

But as soon as the surging momentum touched Chen Yin, it was instantly melted away, just like fire meeting water. Chen Yin was still flipping through the scroll with a calm expression, as if he hadn't noticed it at all.

Hmm? The old man frowned.

What was going on? How could a little fellow who was only at the Upper Cloud Realm be able to withstand his pressure?

Especially Chen Yin's disdainful attitude made him even more confused.

"Who are you? How did you know the location of my demon sect's altar?"

"It doesn't matter who I am." After seeing that there was nothing valuable in the scroll, Chen Yin closed it, sighed, and turned to look at the old man:

"But...you are very important to me."

The old man's pupils shrank, and an instinctive sense of crisis made him subconsciously want to run away.

But before he even had time to move, a milky white sword light flew past and turned into a transparent long sword, floating in front of the old man, blocking his retreat.

"Tell me the location of the main altar and I will spare your life." Chen Yin said calmly.

"Oh, arrogant!"

The old man spat lightly and said viciously: "As a kid in the Upper Cloud Realm, I don't know what kind of rare treasure you have that can allow you to bully others, but don't really think you can scare me!"

Chen Yin seemed not to hear what he said, but lowered his head and whispered to Luo Luo:

"Cover your ears and turn away. Don't look."

Luo Luo said "oh" and covered her ears obediently and turned away.

The next moment, a suppressed roar sounded.

It was like he was in great pain, but someone was covering his mouth and he couldn't shout out.

It was as if all the meridians and bone marrow in the body were being cut into pieces by tiny sword qi.

After a long while, Chen Yin wiped the blood off the sword and gently rubbed the little fox's head: "Okay."

Luo Luo then turned around, but did not see the old man. The ground was empty, with only a small hole left.

"Huh? Where's that guy from before? I thought the young master would ask him to take us to the Demon Sect's main altar."

"No need." Chen Yin lowered his head and brushed off the dust on the sword, and said lightly:

"I know where the Demonic Sect's main altar is."

Luoluo seemed to understand and couldn't help but stick out her tongue.

"Young Master is so cruel..."

"No one can save a soft-hearted person."

Chen Yin didn't explain too much, but said seriously: "Put the things back where they were, and then go."

"Where are you going? The Demon Sect's main altar?"

"No rush. The funeral ceremony they mentioned won't be held for half a month. We will stay in Xiangcheng for the next two days and wait for news."

"Besides." Chen Yin smiled softly: "I promised you that I would tell you a story tonight."

55. The Secret of the Sect

In a valley filled with fairy air, there is a huge pool in the middle of the valley.

This fairy pond is very famous and is known as one of the most spiritual places in the world. It is called Jinluo Pond.

Tianluo Sect is a sect built on the Jinluo Pond.

The entire sect was suspended above the fairy pond. The rich spiritual energy was enough to condense into mist all day long, making the entire sect look ethereal and mysterious.

In the deepest part of Tianluo Gate, a middle-aged fat man with a big belly was lying comfortably on a chair with a lot of fruits beside him.

He just picked up a piece of grape and was about to eat it when he heard a clear shout behind him: "Dad! Where's my mom? I need her help!"

The man was so frightened that he almost choked to death on the grapes. After choking for a long time, he said with difficulty:

"Ahem...my girl, can't you be more ladylike? Stop making so much noise all the time."

Luo Qiaoqiao, in a fluttering red dress, glared angrily, with her hands on her hips: "Do you have any objections?"

The man immediately shrank his neck in dismay: "No, no."

...Alas. I am the great master of Tianluo Sect, Luo Daxian, but I never expected that I would be so humble in front of my daughter.

Although it might be a little worse in front of my wife.

Luo Daxian was still sighing secretly. Luo Qiaoqiao, who had not found her mother, came back and grabbed Luo Daxian's beard: "Dad, my mother is not here. I have something to ask you."

"Hey hey hey...if you have something to say, just say it nicely, don't pull my beard!"

Luo Daxian grinned and said, "What do you want to ask?"

"Have you heard of the Changli Palace?"

Hearing this, Luo Daxian, who had been playful, suddenly became more serious. He asked in a serious tone, "Where did you hear this name?"

"Oh, don't worry about it, just tell me."

As soon as Luo Qiaoqiao saw her father's expression, she knew she had asked the right person. She immediately lay down beside her father and ate the fruit, waiting to hear the story.

Luo Daxian asked cautiously: "Can I not tell you about this?"

"No! Otherwise I will complain to my mother! Last time you said you were going to Wanxiang Pavilion for a social event, but you actually went with your bad friends——"

"Okay, okay, I'll tell you."

"…But this matter has nothing to do with our Tianluo Sect, and I don't want you to get involved." Luo Daxian sighed silently.

"Strictly speaking, this matter is a private matter of Wuling Sect."

A private matter that was enough to bring disgrace to the Wuling Sect.

Luo Qiaoqiao tilted her head curiously.
