Chapter 161: Chapter 159: The Despairing Little Demoness

In Leng Ruyu’s eyes, Qin Yu was merely a junior cultivator abducted by the Hundred Sword Sect as cannon fodder.

Even though she was slightly curious about him at the time, she never intended to bring him back to the Demon Sect.

However, why would such a junior cultivator appear in the Cyan Mountain Sect?!

Leng Ruyu’s eyes were filled with confusion and puzzlement.

Could it be because he saved the Saintess Su Xiyue back then and was exceptionally admitted into the Immortal Sect?

This possibility exists.

But even if he was admitted to the Immortal Sect, shouldn’t he appear on the main peak?!

Could it be...

Suddenly, Leng Ruyu thought of a possibility.

Su Xiyue sought him out to exact revenge on her?!

As soon as this thought appeared, it instantly occupied Leng Ruyu’s entire mind, and instantly, her mind went buzzing, and her pupils showed fear and despair.

Now, she was alone inside the Cyan Mountain Sect, and there was Black Qi wreaking havoc in her body. Once Su Xiyue releases the Jade Thread, she would have no power to resist.

This situation is so similar to what Su Xiyue faced back then?!

Leng Ruyu’s little face slowly lost its color; she instinctively wanted to flee, but as soon as she released the Jade Thread, the severe pain hit her like a tide, causing her to groan and reluctantly grab the Jade Thread again.

This is the Cyan Mountain Sect, even if she wants to flee, with her unable to even maintain Foundation Establishment Cultivation, how could she escape?

Closer.

Closer.

The Sect Leader and Saintess’s Cave Mansion at the summit of the main peak, Leng Ruyu was almost certain that Qin Yu appearing here was Su Xiyue’s revenge on her!

It couldn’t possibly be just to see the Sect Leader, right?!

"Hehe!"

Leng Ruyu suddenly let out a self-deprecating laugh.

Now, she could thoroughly appreciate just how desperate and angry Su Xiyue must have been back then.

Since she did what she did, having the same revenge now upon herself might be her retribution, right?!

"Cyan Mountain Sect."

Determination flashed in Leng Ruyu’s eyes.

If worse comes to worst, perish together!

As long as something happens to her here, the Cyan Mountain Sect definitely won’t fare well either!

Just as she was coldly watching Qin Yu approach, she found that he stopped directly in front of the Sect Leader’s Cave Mansion and walked inside without any hindrance.

"???

The previously desperate Leng Ruyu suddenly felt her brain freeze.

How come?!

A junior cultivator at Qi Refining just walked into the Sect Leader’s Cave Mansion?

She recalled carefully and found that Qin Yu walked within the main peak as if strolling leisurely, naturally and without any restraint.

As if he’s already... gotten used to it?!

Could it be that he’s often summoned by the Sect Leader?

What’s the Cyan Mountain Sect’s Sect Leader seeking a junior cultivator for?

Even if he helped Su Xiyue, it wouldn’t need to go this far.

Suddenly, Leng Ruyu remembered a recent major event in the Yunlan Domain.

The Cyan Mountain Sect Leader Su Xihe took a Direct Disciple, who was said to have a bone age of around thirty and possessed Refining level Spiritual Power!

The age matches.

Really?

Could a junior cultivator from Loose Cultivator City possess such talent?!

She felt that she needed to verify it.

At the same time, she couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.

As long as it’s not Su Xiyue’s revenge, that’s still alright.

...

Qin Yu arrived at the Sect Leader’s Cave Mansion, but only Liu Zixiao was waiting for him; Su Xihe was nowhere to be seen.

He inevitably felt a bit disappointed.

"Master Liu, why isn’t the Sect Leader Master here?"

"What, is it that only your Sect Leader Master can teach you? Can’t I teach you?"

Seeing Qin Yu asking for Su Xihe immediately upon his arrival, Liu Zixiao glared at him a little irritably.

Every day, if he doesn’t see Su Xihe, he would always ask, making her feel as though she, as the second master, is nothing but a superfluous decoration.

Although Liu Zixiao acknowledged that in some aspects she wasn’t as good as the Sect Leader, she was still better than her good sister in other aspects.

Qin Yu, seeing this, chuckled and quickly apologized, "Master Liu speaks too strongly. Disciple has no other intentions, just concerned about both masters and wants to greet them both."

This Master Liu before him, her beauty and figure were also rare sights, a beauty hard to come by.

She naturally exuded an aura reminiscent of the Innate Little Mother Sacred Body, both charming and captivating.

Especially the mature fruits at the front, even the loose clothing couldn’t conceal its proud contours, visually stunning.

And below, a pair of jade legs was exceptionally long.

Longer than life.

Unfortunately, this Master Liu blocked it, not revealing anything.

"Today, the Sect Leader has business, so I will pass on the teachings to you."

Liu Zixiao merely jested, not willing to truly compare herself to the Sect Leader.

Her expression then turned serious as she calmly spoke, "Normally, a Lower Grade Spirit Bone person can only reach Initial Stage Foundation Establishment at most, to break through further is extremely difficult."

Qin Yu nodded, indicating agreement.

"However, within the Immortal Sect, breaking through to Middle Tier Foundation Establishment is no problem, but the Immortal Sect’s expectations of you go far beyond that!"

Liu Zixiao stated directly.

"You know that the quality of one’s Root Bone is the measure of a cultivator’s meridian strength and dantian resilience, so a Lower Grade Spirit Bone, if aiming to breakthrough to Golden Core, there’s only one way..."

"That is to widen the meridians within the body, enhancing the meridians and dantian’s capacity. This would not only increase cultivation speed but also raise one’s cultivation limit!"

"Oh, it can increase cultivation speed?"

Regarding Liu Zixiao’s earlier words, Qin Yu didn’t pay much attention, but the mention of increasing cultivation speed intrigued him.

"Yes."

Liu Zixiao nodded and said, "With the cultivation technique you chose now, your Spiritual Qi absorption is far faster than refining speed..."

"Indeed!"

Qin Yu nodded.

"Next, I will help you widen your meridians..."

"Wait, Master Liu."

Qin Yu stopped her, under her puzzled gaze, he repeated what the Sect Leader had said to him.

"You mean that you’re not just a Lower Grade Spirit Bone?!"

Liu Zixiao’s situation now was almost identical to that of the Sect Leader back then.

This matter was too incredible.

She didn’t want to believe it, but only this story could explain why someone with a Lower Grade Spirit Bone could live in the Outer City for twenty years.

"Yes." Qin Yu lied shamelessly to his master.

"So you mean you only need to increase cultivation speed?"

Liu Zixiao confirmed once again.

Widening meridians and increasing dantian resilience requires a tremendous cost, even the Immortal Sect wouldn’t resort to it lightly.

Thus, saving resources for the Immortal Sect.

"Yes." Qin Yu was very sure.

"If that’s the case, I’ll go by your suggestion."

Liu Zixiao hesitated for a moment, then nodded, and then waved her palm, a bath barrel appeared in the room.

"The simplest and quickest method to increase cultivation speed is a medicated bath, just as the Demon Sect sent many spirit medicines, you may use them first."
