I am a villain and have been captured. Why are the fairies asking me to come out?

Yi Niaoniao was extremely grateful that she had acted cautiously, not showing her true appearance in public, and never using her spiritual power in the city, and had concealed all her aura.

Otherwise, unless the other party is a fool, this investigation will definitely not yield any results.

Now, she had to wait for the ninth thunderbolt to fall, hoping that the lightning that penetrated the sky and the earth would illuminate the face of the person behind the scenes.

……

Although the case was confusing, Yi Niaoniao was very familiar with sugary desserts.

It didn't take her much effort to find out that the most famous dessert shop in the town was a small kitchen in the Penglai Pavilion Inn.

Yi Niaoniao stayed in the inn like this.

The past few days were relatively peaceful, and there was no thunder in the city. She was not in a hurry and arranged for herself to have a good meal again. She asked the maid to bring her sweet snacks every hour, so that her belly was full all the time.

After enjoying it for a short while, today... on the fourth day, the peace was finally broken.

At the inn, she met someone unexpected.

Qian Qiuxue's apprentice...

Why is she here?

How come his cultivation level is only at the Yuan-building stage...is he hiding it using some secret method?

The girl under the fox mask was full of confusion, but she didn't show it in her actions. She closed the lid of the porcelain bowl and was about to push the cart into the house.

At this moment, Yi Niaoniao heard a young man's voice: "Yu Luo, has the food not arrived yet?"

This sound...

Yi Niaoniao was stunned.

The breeze is warm and the air is as tranquil as water.

She seemed to have heard such a voice somewhere before.

Soon, footsteps were heard and someone pushed the door open and walked out of Room 2.

"It has been delivered... Why are you staying here?"

"I want to eat……"

"What do you want to eat?"

"Uh...Nothing, let's eat."

Yi Niaoniao didn't look back. She pushed the food cart into the door naturally, as if she was not interested in the man and woman behind her.

The wooden cart slid into the door. As the door closed, she turned her head and her eyes seemed to casually pass over the two people in front of Room 2.

This glance caused the amber pupils under the fox mask to shrink instantly.

Yan...Yan Mobai?

……

In room number one, Yi Niao Niao was leaning on the dressing table with her small hands, her beautiful eyes staring blankly at the table. Her delicate body under the white robe was trembling non-stop as if she had just experienced something terrible. The fox mask was quietly placed beside her, and the bronze mirror reflected her beautiful face.

It’s impossible to make a mistake, it’s him... the leader of the Demon Cult, Yan Mobai.

She took a deep breath, but still found it difficult to calm her fluctuating emotions.

Wasn’t he locked up by Qian Qiuxue?

Shouldn't he be...suffering inhuman torture in the dungeon?

Qian Qiuxue mentioned Yan Mobai's face that suddenly became distorted, and she could never forget it.

But now, he appeared in Jiuling Town with Qian Qiuxue's disciple.

No matter what the purpose of the Yuheng Sect Master was in asking the two to come here, at least Yi Niaoniao did not see any injuries on Yan Mobai, and from the sound of his voice, he did not sound like he had been tortured to the point of mental breakdown and became Qian Qiuxue's puppet.

Yi Niaoniao didn’t know what her mood was at the moment. She was stunned in confusion for a long time, and finally couldn’t help but look at the mirror.

There were no candles in the room. In the dim moonlight outside the window, the face of the person in the mirror looked a little pale, but in this paleness, there was an unconcealable blush.

Is she...happy?

……

Yi Niaoniao has always hated the Demon Cult and hated the Demon Cult's guardian Wang Shi Shen who caused her to lose her master.

But she doesn't hate everyone in the magic world.

In the entire demon cult, there is only one person that Yi Niaoniao does not feel disgusted with, and that person is the leader of the demon cult who stands at the highest position.

Yi Niao Niao had already found out a lot about what Yan Mobai did when he was in office. Not to mention the people's livelihood and society, which were far away from the immortal cultivators, there had not been a single dispute on the border between Yaoguang and the Demon Cult since ten years ago...

If he had become the leader earlier, how could my master have been brutally murdered by Wang Shishen's men in Yaoguang Territory?

Ever since her master passed away, she had been alone and helpless in the sect, and her life was even worse than those servants.

I was hungry every morning, and I didn’t dare to go to the stall to buy the remaining cold steamed buns at half price until almost noon. I couldn’t afford to rent the cheapest cave, so I built a thatched house that was cold in winter and warm in summer. It was very cold every night, and it leaked when the weather was bad. After every rainy night, my face was covered with mud and water...

The situation did not improve until she reached the stage of Yuan Building, but even so, the sect still did not leave her any cultivation resources.

Without the protection of the master, any Tom, Dick or Harry would dare to step on her head. After the spiritual stones distributed by the sect were heavily deducted by the senior brothers and sisters, they were not even enough for her daily breathing.

Chapter 68: The Master's Past

The most important thing in cultivating immortals is to cultivate external objects. Without the nourishment of a blessed land with abundant spiritual energy, and without spiritual stones and jade marrow to fill the sea of ​​​​energy, even the most flawless spiritual veins will eventually wither away little by little, and one will waste time and live a mediocre life in a place with barren spiritual energy.

For a disciple like Yi Niaoniao who had no background in the sect, being able to build her Yuan was already a huge fortune. As for the next stage, namely, the various precious spiritual herbs and medicines needed to form the Dan would have held her back.

As for the original fetus, it is even more wishful thinking.

Ordinary people might give up on themselves and blame others, but how could Yi Niaoniao, who has never given up, be willing to do this?

The lack of external materials for practicing Taoism forced her onto an extremely dangerous path.

This road is full of highway robberies, burglaries, murders and arson...

During that period, the borders of Yanyuzhou and Tiandingzhou were in a state of panic. All the ruthless rich and evil demons were terrified, fearing that they would return home to see a black-clad swordsman sitting quietly at home with a cold glow on his sword.

But... no one knows that the ruthless swordsman is actually a weak and fragile woman.

All the gold and silver that were taken away were eventually distributed to the poor people by Yi Niaoniao, while the elixirs and spiritual stones that were taken away were all used by Yi Niaoniao for her own practice.

She was already extremely talented, and those medicinal pills and spirit stones were quickly transformed into strength. Then she snatched more spirit stones and precious herbs from the demon cultivators, and used them to make her strength soar by leaps and bounds...

In fact, Yi Niaoniao knew in her heart that she was destined not to go far on this road. If you walk by the river often, you will get your feet wet. As her reputation continued to spread in Yanyuzhou, the enemies she attracted would become stronger and stronger. Who knows, the next time she made a move, there might be countless demon cultivators lying in ambush waiting for her.

But in order to find Wang Shishen and take revenge one day, she had no choice but to move forward no matter how dangerous the road ahead was.

The battle to seize the elixir that could promote the Yuantai was Yi Niaoniao's last battle in Yanyuzhou, and also the most dangerous one.

She went to the Demon Cult's branch in Wangcheng, which was the transportation hub for supplies of the Demon Cult's branches in the southern part of Yanyuzhou.

That month, there happened to be several batches of elixirs needed for the advancement to Yuantai that were to be transferred from Wangcheng to other places, protected and escorted by several demon cultivators who had reached the perfect stage of Jindan.

The only ones who could covet the Yuantai Pill are at best thieves who have reached the Jindan Perfection stage. In theory, this power is enough to scare away any ordinary Jindan Perfection cultivator. As for those unparalleled genius cultivators in the same realm, they have sufficient resources for cultivation no matter which sect they are in. How could they be interested in a few ordinary pills?

But there just happen to be sects like the Yaoguang Sect in this world, and there just happen to be people like Yi Niaoniao in those sects.

She made full preparations for this robbery.

After scouting the place for a full half month, Yi Niaoniao had never seen any Yuantai demon cultivators coming and going in the hall, nor had she discovered that they had any other arrangements.

But...there are unexpected changes in the world.

On the night she sneaked in, a leader of a branch of the Demon Cult who was at the Yuantai Realm came down for inspection and walked in right after her.

Faced with the magical power of the Yuantai realm, Yi Niaoniao had no power to fight back at all. After a one-sided battle, she finally escaped at the risk of her life and returned seriously injured.

The injuries you suffer can be recovered, but the opportunities you miss will never come back...

Previously, they only robbed the residences of the demon cultivators, which at most caused the relatives and friends of the demon cultivators to seek revenge. This time it was different...

She attacked the Demon Cult's headquarters and ended up provoking the entire cult.

It is foreseeable that in the coming days, the Demon Cult will certainly investigate who the so-called "chivalrous swordsman" is, and each branch will increase its vigilance and manpower, waiting for her to fall into the trap.

It is as difficult as ascending to heaven to continue plundering the materials needed to advance to the Yuantai stage.

But she had no choice.

The Yaoguang Sect is different from other sects. The various mountains have already divided up the resources for cultivating immortals, and the weak and isolated cultivators can only get the leftovers.

Even the master who was at the Yuantai realm had an extremely difficult time practicing back then, let alone her, a Jindan disciple who had not even reached the Yuantai realm?

In order to be able to advance to the Yuantai stage, Yi Niaoniao once again inquired about the entrance to a magic church.

This time, she spent a whole month scouting the location.

Three days before she was about to leave, a mysterious package was suddenly delivered to her door.

Yi Niaoniao was very surprised, thinking that it was a declaration of war from some unknown demon cultivator, or a trap to plot against her.

After much trouble to open it, she found that there were only three bottles of pills and a bag of spirit stones inside.

There was a piece of paper under the spirit stone.

The paper said: Don't go to Yanyuzhou in three days.

Yi Niaoniao was quite frightened.

The first shock was why the other party knew that she would go to Yanyuzhou to rob in three days.

She never told anyone about this.

The second surprise...

She stared blankly at the fine elixir in the elixir bottle and the pure spiritual stone chalcedony in the bag.

Many years later, Yi Niaoniao still remembers that it seemed like a dream. The sudden feeling of happiness made her feel like she was in the clouds.

Since her master passed away, all the resources for cultivation, even every grain of rice in her stomach and every inch of cloth she wears, were won by her own hands.

She was used to getting things at a higher price than others, but had never experienced the feeling of being given something as a gift.

Not to mention, the pills in the pill bottle are kept in the Yaoguang Sect, and even the faction to which Elder Lianshen belongs is not qualified to use them... To be precise, the Yaoguang Sect does not even have these pills.

Nine-Quenching Purple Qi Pill, Yin-Yang Purifying Marrow Pill, Seven-Aperture Pure Yuan Pill.

Any bottle taken out would be an elixir that is enough to stir up disputes among the immortals.

But now it was delivered to her by someone whose identity is unknown.

Just to convey a message.

After three days, don’t go to Yanyuzhou…

Yi Niaoniao pondered the meaning of this sentence for a long time.

Anyone who can come up with these pills must be at least a spiritual cultivator, no... at least a giant of the immortal sect.

How could such a big shot pay attention to a small Jindan disciple like her? She didn't want to go to Yanyuzhou... Even if she went, what kind of waves could she cause?

Unable to figure out the answer, she could only put it out of her mind and devote herself to practice.

After a few months, Yi Niaoniao was promoted to Yuantai and became an elder in the sect. Only then did she get some scattered news through the sect's spies:

On the third day after the pills were delivered, a group of thieves who were independent cultivators happened to sneak into the entrance of the Demon Sect that she was planning to rob, and they were all captured by the Demon Sect's guardian elder Mo Niansheng who was lying in ambush there.

She had no idea what happened after that.

However, one can guess with one's toes that what awaits those wandering cultivators is most likely a dark interrogation and a final, decisive or indirect, stabbing.

If she hadn't received the three bottles of elixirs that day, would these terrible thoughts have fallen on her...

Yi Niaoniao was terribly scared.

That sentence... was not meant to set up any tricks to disrupt the world, but was simply to save her life...

The person who delivered the elixir not only knew that she was planning to go to Yanyuzhou to rob the Demon Sect, but also accurately calculated that Mo Niansheng would ambush there in advance, waiting for her to fall into the trap.

Who...is he?

Chapter 69: Brain Master

She has thought about this question for many years.

In the following years, top-quality elixirs were delivered to Yi Niaoniao every month. She also tried to track down the people behind these elixirs, but after painstaking investigation, she only found a few puppets that looked almost like living people.
