Villain Master, my disciples all want to backstab me

A smile appeared on Xue Yan's wrinkled face. "Then it seems that the girl next to you is also a member of the demon clan? I've heard about you from Hall Master Gu and Elder Shentu a long time ago, but I didn't expect you to be here..."

"Cough cough."

Mo Zheng interrupted Xueyan and glanced calmly at Qingluo beside him. "This trip is just a personal one and has nothing to do with the tribe. So there's no need to talk about it. Elder Xueyan, please explain the situation here to us. I would be very grateful."

The fact that the four demon clans, the Shentu family, and the Blood Origin Sect were collaborating was no secret to the three parties involved. Even the four righteous sects were well aware of it; after all, when Ling Xiuya was being hunted, these three had attacked together.

However, the Shenhuang clan did not know about this.

As the imaginary enemy of the four demon clans, and the target of their annihilation, Qingluo only needed to track down Xueyuan and then obediently die at the appropriate time; Mo Zhe, on the other hand, had more to consider. For example, concealing the existence of these conspiracies and keeping Qingluo stable was one of his responsibilities.

However, Qingluo was just a little impulsive, but not stupid.

She keenly noticed the difference between Mo Zhe and Xue Yan, but did not reveal it. She just suppressed her doubts in her heart and waited for the answers from the people of the Xueyuan Sect opposite.

"This……"

Blood Nightmare was a little hesitant.

What happened tonight was indeed not glorious for the Blood Origin Sect.

The headquarters was attacked; the captives in the blood pool were released; the sect leader acted hastily but failed to capture the enemy, and instead had one of his incarnations destroyed... Even if he used "intentional" as a shield, it could not change the fact of complete defeat.

If these things were to get out, it would likely have a significant impact on the Blood Origin Sect's reputation. If things went south, everyone would turn against them, and the stalemate in the war between good and evil might even be overturned.

but……

"Why, do you have any unspeakable secrets?"

Qingluo spoke.

In the space of just a few words, a few strands of fire flew out from the surrounding ravines and abysses and returned to Qingluo's hands. Wrapped within the flames were tiny strands of hair and a scrap of cloth the size of a fingernail. Although these were extremely small objects, the aura of Bai Yuan was unmistakable.

The memories of thirty years ago exploded in my mind again.

Therefore, the murderous intent on Qingluo's face instantly solidified: "You are the demonic cultivators of the Blood Source Sect, right? Judging from your appearance, you must have been tricked by someone, right? It was Xue Yuan, right? When did she appear? How long have you been gone? Where did she go?"

boom--! !

A golden flame suddenly rose up, making Xue Yan and the others look solemn. Even Mo Zhe took a half step back.

In a sense, the flames of the Divine Phoenix Clan were the nemesis of the Shadow Leopard Clan. Ordinary flames were tolerable, but the Nirvana Fire of the Phoenix Ancestor lineage was enough to burn a Shadow Leopard, even in its shadow state, to ash.

This was one of the reasons why Shadow Leopard chose to cooperate with Black Eagle. After all, no one wanted to see their natural enemy continue to exist in peace, even if the other party was a "peace-loving" race.

"Blood Nightmare Elder."

Mo Zhe spoke slowly, "With such a big commotion tonight, it's probably unrealistic to try to keep the news secret. Since it will be known to the outside world sooner or later, why don't you ask the elders to tell us what happened and choose a few details. To be honest, we are also tracking the whereabouts of the Blood Kite Demon. If we have the opportunity, we will kill him."

"..."

Xue Yan narrowed his eyes and looked at Mo Zhe and Qing Luo silently. After a moment, he sighed pretentiously, "Alright. Since you two are so interested, I will tell you the truth."

present.

In his old voice, Xue Yan recounted the incident of the attack on the Xueyuan Sect's headquarters and the abduction of the Jiang family's remnants.

Although there were many details in the process, such as someone sneaking into the blood pool, she deliberately omitted them.

In addition, the situation of the incarnation of the Blood God was not mentioned.

But one could still tell that the Blood Origin Sect suffered a great loss in this battle.

When Mo Zhe heard the words "remnants of the Jiang family", his heart moved slightly. He then turned his gaze to Qing Luo, and when he saw that the latter didn't seem to care about this, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Blood Kite... That demon is now so powerful! Wasn't it said that she has been hunted by the righteous sects for the past year, and even her own sect was wiped out, leaving her like a lost dog?"

"This……"

To be honest, Blood Nightmare is also very confusing.

It was clear that not long ago, rumors were circulating in the cultivation world that Xue Yuan was severely injured by the Qingxuan Sect and her dantian was completely destroyed; and it was also true that after the battle in Luoxing Valley, Qing Lingzi returned safely to the mountain with the "Qingxuan Zhenhai Sword", but she disappeared for several months... How come after not seeing her for a while, this woman is even stronger than before she was hunted?

——Before being hunted, although the Blood Kite was quite powerful, he was only at the third level of the Spiritual Transformation Realm. Even though his [Path of Time] was quite powerful, he could only fight against those at the fourth or fifth level of the Spiritual Transformation Realm at most. It was absolutely impossible for him to challenge the Blood God Son who was at the late stage of the Spiritual Transformation Realm!

Even if it is just a clone of the Blood God, it is the same!

Speaking of...

Could it be that the Blood Kite and the Qingxuan Sect were in cahoots? Were they deliberately putting on a show in front of the other sects in the cultivation world?

Otherwise, how do we explain that the more Qingxuan Sect hunts Blood Kite, the stronger she becomes?

Xue Yan muttered to himself, but he made up for it dryly, "I think that demon may have found some ancient secret realm and obtained some powerful magic tools from it, so she can do this kind of thing... But she also suffered serious injuries when she broke into our sect this time, and was also hit by our sect's secret blood curse, which will definitely take effect within seven days.

"Since you two are here for her, why not join forces with our sect and jointly track down this demon? Within seven days at the latest, once the blood curse takes effect, her whereabouts will be exposed, and we can then utterly slay her."

"..."

Mo Zhe didn't say anything, but just looked at Qingluo with an inquiring look.

The latter's expression changed for a few moments, and finally he shook his head: "No need."

"?"

"I do want to kill that woman, but I haven't yet resorted to relying on the power of you demon cultivators... Humph."

As she said this, Qingluo glanced around coldly with contempt in her eyes.

In her opinion, these demonic cultivators, like Xue Yuan and Mo Zhe, deserved to die.

However, her primary target now was the Blood Kite, and its presence was already apparent. If she made any further fuss at this point, it might lead to unnecessary trouble. Therefore, Qingluo did her best to suppress the urge to burn everyone in front of her, deciding to wait until she was done with her business.

Once Xue Yuan was dead, Qing Luo planned to kill every last one of these beastly demon cultivators! Then she would grind their bones to dust!

Originally, this was just Qingluo's inner thoughts. The Xueyuan Sect did not have the ability to read minds, so it was impossible to know what she was thinking.

However, Qingluo's eyes did not conceal her disdain for the demon cultivators. And it was this disdain that made the surrounding Blood Origin Sect disciples a little nervous.

What the fuck do you mean?!

Just two monsters, dare you look down on our Blood Origin Sect? Why?!

Recalling what happened tonight, first the main hall was attacked, then the blood pool exploded, and the sect leader was also said to be injured. Now even two monsters dared to show off in front of him... Several monks of the Blood Source Sect who were originally responsible for security work, needed to be held accountable for this matter, and would most likely be executed according to convention, could not hold back on the spot.

"What's that look in your eyes? Are you looking down on our Blood Origin Sect?! How dare you disrespect the Great Elder..."

Before he could even finish the word "disrespectful".

Then I heard a "bang"!

It was Blood Nightmare who raised the dragon-headed cane in his hand at this moment, and lightly tapped it. The powerful spiritual power turned into a thick whip, which directly whipped the man who had just spoken away. His body hit the mountain wall hundreds of meters away and exploded into a ball of blood mist on the spot.

"Are you guys planning a rebellion?! Get back!"

Xue Yan shouted a few words, then looked back at Qing Luo and Mo Zheng, smiled apologetically, and said, "I, your disciple, made a slip of the tongue. I am truly sorry for causing you two such a humiliation."

"..."

Qingluo frowned and looked at the smiling old face in front of her. She finally let go of the momentum she had just built up, but her expression was still a little unhappy.

Pity……

She had originally wanted to use this conflict as a prelude to wipe out all the Blood Source Sect monks before her, but now it seemed she would have to wait until after she dealt with the Blood Kite.

opposite.

Xue Yan looked calm and composed, but he was also sweating coldly in his heart.

She had just learned through Mo Zeng's voice transmission that the golden-eyed girl in front of her was actually the eldest disciple who had been abandoned by Xue Yuan after his heart and bones were cut out! Moreover, she was now a powerful cultivator in the late stage of the Spiritual Transformation Realm!

This cultivation speed must be a cheat, how did they do it?!

The late stage of the Spiritual Transformation Realm was the ostensible ceiling of the cultivation world, a realm even the Blood God Son had to approach with caution. If the two groups truly clashed here, then everyone, including her, Blood Nightmare, wouldn't last even half a cup of tea... No, perhaps in just twenty breaths, they would all be dead! Not even a corpse would be left behind!

Therefore, even if the other party was so arrogant, Xue Yan could only swallow his anger and choose to keep quiet.

"...let's go."

"Blood Yuan hasn't been here for long. Find her as soon as possible."

Qingluo didn't spare Xueyan and the others a second glance. She turned calmly, her feathered robes moving without a breeze, exploding into circular waves of fire. She then walked on the waves, glass crystals spreading across her feet with every step.

Mo Zhe looked back at everyone from the Blood Source Sect, hesitated briefly, and then followed in the direction Qingluo left - at this time, he really didn't do anything well.

The two figures disappeared in the distance again.

Until then.

The expression on Xue Yan's face changed, and then his eyes became fierce. He stared at the direction Qing Luo had just left, as if he wanted to eat her alive: "Damn it, damn it! A half-human, half-demon mixed-blood bastard who just got lucky and dared to be so arrogant... He really doesn't know his place!"

After venting his emotions for a while, Blood Nightmare finally let out a sigh, sighing with a hint of regret: "Forget it... You guys, spread out and look around to see if there are any traces of Blood Kite left. We must dig them out as soon as possible to confirm!"

As Blood Nightmare issued the order.

Everyone present immediately became busy.

……

the other side.

Inside the [Wheel of Life and Death] derived from the [Way of Time].

In the end, Bai Yuan tried no less than nine methods, but still failed to get Gui Yuan's true thoughts when she attacked Qing Luo.

There is only one seemingly plausible answer -

"Do you remember how many elixirs you've taken?"

Well... considering there's a difference between "elixir" and "miracle elixir," it's impossible for Gui Yuan to forget a "elixir" as significant as Qingluo. So, this answer can only be attributed to the other party not wanting to talk about it, so she found an excuse. Perhaps, she actually regretted what she did to Qingluo.

Since Gui Yuan doesn't want to say more.

Bai Yuan didn't ask any more questions and instead started discussing the topic of "borrowing power" with her.

Chapter 189 Want to read?

According to Gui Yuan, she chose to show up at this time mainly because she was too bored staying in the [Wheel of Life and Death].

As a notorious demon with countless murders, she could accept being hunted by enemies and dying in battle, but she could not accept being suffocated to death in a dark prison.

and……

"Besides, you have that Return to Void Realm cultivator from the Ji family with you. If I even hint at the slightest intention of devouring you, she'll probably notice and kill me straight away, right? Humph, I don't know what that Return to Void Realm cultivator is thinking, to actually follow you around so closely."

Gui Yuan snorted coldly.

Bai Yuan remained noncommittal about this.

Although her relationship with Ji Lingyun was not as close as Gui Yuan imagined, but... the soft rice from the big sister in the Return to Void Realm was indeed very tempting. The fact that she could survive until now was closely related to the former.

also……

Although the two reasons given by Gui Yuan are true.

But Bai Yuan still felt that this was not her true thoughts. She must be hiding something.

Maybe……

Is it information related to "destiny"?

If, as previously stated, Blood Kite was chosen as the destined villain due to her cultivation of the Way of Time, then the person with the most profound attainments in the Way of Time must be Ghost Kite. After all, she had spent twenty years in Cangwu County, a place bordering life and death, while Bai Yuan had only been in this body for a year or two.

Therefore, Gui Yuan might have foreseen something, which is why he suddenly jumped out and talked to himself.

(What do you think, little idiot?)

Bai Yuan asked quietly in his heart.

[Ah? Me?]

【this……】

Well, it turns out that only my own system is still as reliable as ever. If this thing suddenly becomes stiff one day, it means that it may have been taken over by another system...

【? 】

[Host, please be careful with your words. This system is not that useless! ]

[In fact, the host's feeling is not wrong. The reason why you are being targeted by the Heavenly Dao of this world is indeed related to the "Path of Time". And after using the [Thunder Pearl] this time, the cause and effect entangled in you has become even more intense.]

"cause and effect?"

Bai Yuan raised his eyebrows.

It seems that the little waste really knows something?

[Hmm... Let me put it this way. The passage of time, the cycle of seasons, is a law established since the birth of heaven and earth. It is also the cycle of heaven and nature. However, the "Way of Time" cultivated by the host attempts to break this law, transcending the Three Realms and not being within the Five Elements. Therefore, it is not tolerated by the Way of Heaven.
