CH 23

Mass graves outside the city.

A faint flame fluttered, and the cool evening breeze blew through the treetops, dragging down a few fallen leaves.

The temperature was low and the air was cold.

Jiang Yanlan stood calmly beside a dead tree, motionless.

Her entire body was absorbed and merged with the surroundings. If she hadn’t exhaled a white breath from time to time, she would hardly be able to sense her presence.

Youquan Sect  was not as good as before, she needed to be cautious.

Blah! Blah.

Footsteps were heard in the distance.

Jiang Yanlan stared, and an honest middle-aged man came over with a bag on his back.

She cheered up, “Come on.”

The seemingly slow movement of the middle-aged man was actually surprisingly fast.

In just a few breaths, he arrived in front of Jiang Yanlan.

“Junior Sister Jiang, what are the orders from Master?”

A very normal and unremarkable voice that no one would care to hear on the street echoed.

The only abnormal thing was that these words did not come from the man’s mouth, but from the bag behind him.

Jiang Yanlan looked at the bag, a trace of pain flashed in her eyes as she sighed.

“Senior Brother Cao, for the sake of the sect, you have suffered.”

There was laughter that reverberated from the bag. “Junior Sister, why say so?”

“You should be happy for me, I am Cao Honghua, but I am a peerless genius who has cultivated the “Netherworld Soul Manipulation” that no one in my sect had cultivated for three hundred years.

Jiang Yanlan’s mouth was a little sour, making her speechless.

In the etherworld Soul Manipulation, the cultivator could leave their soul fragment and manipulate other people’s bodies on a daily basis without contaminating the slightest yin.

It could be said that it was the first to be concealed and probed in Youquanmen.

Even if they lived in the city for many years, people would not notice.

Those Youquan Sect disciples living in the wilderness were able to avoid the inspectors of Jingyao in time by relying on Cao Honghua’s intelligence reconnaissance in the city.

So, what was the price?

Jiang Yanlan glanced at the bag, she knew that it was a sealed clay pot, and Cao Honghua was in it.

Or, at least 10% of Cao Honghua was in it.

Jiang Yanlan seemed to see the scene of that day in front of her eyes. She closed her eyes in pain and opened them again.

After a while, she spoke with a sense of disappointment.

“Senior Brother Cao, there is an order from over there to kill Gu Qing’an.”

The bag didn’t move, as if it really was an ordinary bag.

After a long time, Cao Honghua said, “I will die.”

There was no emotion in the tone, just a simple expression of a fact.

Jingyu rank who joined Jing Yao, unless one could pick all the masters of Jingyao in this county, how could he survive?

Jiang Yanlan couldn’t bear it, and didn’t speak.

The night wind blew, and the thick dark clouds parted a bit, making way for a ray of white moonlight.

“What conditions did they give?” Cao Honghua asked.

Jiang Yanlan said, “There will be a move to expand the space channel and lead everyone from Youquan sect to Zi’an Realm.”

“Leaving Tianyun Realm? It’s not bad.” Cao Honghua smiled bitterly.

“It’s quite cost-effective to take my life for the junior brothers and sisters to fight for a future without fear.”

“Senior Brother Cao…”

“Junior Sister Jiang, do you know?”

“The other day, when I spread the news that Black River had a Jingyu rank, I knew this day would come.”

“They will not let Dacheng’s talent grow.”

“After all, no matter how difficult it is to kill a Jingyu rank, it is easier than killing a great Divine master she will be in the future.”

“No need to say more.”

The middle-aged man with the bag turned around handsomely, “I will take care of this matter.”

Jiang Yanlan looked at his back and sighed again.

…

The murderous intent was approaching, but Gu Qing’an was completely unaware.

She didn’t think anyone could do something to herself under the three innate gods in the Jing Yao.

Even if there were a few night-timers…

Come on, little baby, I will show you something good.

A sword that glows purple!

Isn’t it amazing?

Swish!

She had no fear at all.

To support this fearlessness, in addition to Retribution Skill, there was also her recent assiduous practice.

Gu Qing’an’s life had been very regular these days.

Classes in the morning, exercises in the afternoon, and medicinal baths in the evening.

Among them, practice was the thing that fascinated her the most.

The surging qi and blood, and the strengthening of the flesh, made her unconsciously immersed in the cultivation.

When she heard Shang Luoyun’s

announcement that the class was dismissed, she couldn’t help being surprised.

Gu Qing’an wiped the sweat from her forehead and glanced at Li Wanbai next to her.

The clothes on her body could already wring out the water, which showed how hard she worked this afternoon.

Gu Qing’an smiled, “Wanbai, I’m leaving.”

“Well, I’ll practice for a while.”

At that time, Shang Luoyun walked up to Gu Qing’an and hugged her intimately.

“Junior Sister Qing’an, let’s go.”

Li Wan Bai looked at the two people who had gone away, her expression was a little sad, and then she showed determination.

‘Qing’an has already reached the sixth level of body forging, and I barely managed to reach the second level, so I have to work harder!”

One more practice session tonight!

Gu Qing’an comfortably soaked in the medicine bath, with her hair tied, and she kept spitting out bubbles cutely.

Ah…so comfortable.

Wow.

Gu Qing’an changed her posture, rose slightly, broke the surface of the water, and exposed her head. She placed her pillow on the edge of the bath.

She glanced at the properties panel.

Name: Gu Qingan

Cultivation: Sixth Level Body Forging (35%)

Strength: 2

Agility: 2

Constitution: 5

Defence: 2

Skill: Retribution LV.2 (1/5)

Demon Hunting Points: 0

Her attributes did not improve because of her hard work, but Gu Qing’an clearly felt that her strength and agility had increased by at least 50%. Even her physique and defence, which were difficult to directly observe, could vaguely feel a good improvement.#pleasereadthischapteratWondernovels.com

So that means this attribute is an extra bonus?

Gu Qing’an thought with confidence.

Like the equipment bonus in the game?

Thinking of this possibility, Gu Qing’an became excited.

Then as long as there are enough Demon Hunting Points and attribute points, I am absolutely invincible at the same level.

The strength of a realm could be infinitely improved, but there was always a limit.

But, Gu Qing’an’s attribute panel could bypass this limit.

“Little Qing’an, why are you so happy?” Shang Luoyun asked.

She looked at Gu Qing’an with a smile on her face, got close, and wrapped her arms around Gu Qing’an’s slender and fair neck.

Although I prefer girls to be cute to me, it’s also good to act like a baby with a gentle big sister occasionally.

Gu Qing’an thought with peace of mind.

She smiled tenderly, “I miss you, Senior Sister Shang.”

“Little Qing’an’s mouth is so sweet.” Shang Luoyun’s eyes were hot.

Gu Qingan’s heart suddenly moved. She thought about how to get the Demon Hunting Points.

Senior Sister Shang was already an inspector in the Jingyao Division, so if she askey her, it would help her.

“By the way, Senior Sister Shang, where do we usually meet demons in Jingyao?”

Where are demons?

Shang Luoyun thought for a while and smiled.

“This…”
