Chapter 81:

Master, you see, she was pretending, Li Su chuckled, confirming his suspicion.The origin of this chapter's debut can be traced to N0v3l--B1n.

The sect leader looked at the angry Holy Maiden of the Silent Moon and couldnt help but admire Li Sus cunning.

Li Su, how do you plan to deal with her? the sect leader asked, clarifying that she had no intentions of claiming any spoils of war from this point onwards, leaving the decisions to Li Su.

Master, do you think that after the Holy Maiden of the Silent Moon, the Demonic Sect will still send anyone else? Li Su inquired.

Li Su asked the sect leader, who took a moment to consider before responding, In the short term, its unlikely. The Holy Maiden of the Silent Moon was quite powerful, and even she suffered losses here. The situation within the Demonic Sect is complex, and even if it has a few Nascent Soul cultivators left, its unlikely they will send them out again.

This assessment aligned with Li Sus thoughts. There should be more than one Nascent Soul cultivator within the Demonic Sect, possibly even some at the mid-Nascent Soul stage. However, the existence of late-Nascent Soul cultivators remained uncertain. Advancing beyond the Nascent Soul stage became progressively more challenging, with significant variations in strength.

As a Nascent Soul cultivator, the Holy Maiden of the Silent Moon held a high status within the Demonic Sect, and her strength was formidable. She had brought eight Golden Core stage demonic cultivators with her, including two at the peak of the Golden Core stage. Such a force was impressive even within the renowned Demonic Sect. Her presence underscored her significant status within the sect.

If even she had suffered losses during this encounter, it raised questions about the level of cultivators the Demonic Sect might deploy next. Moreover, given the distance from their headquarters to this location, they seemed unlikely to return anytime soon. Until the situation within the Holy Alliance improved, the Demonic Sect was unlikely to make another move. Nevertheless, they could send infiltrators to await the right moment.

Elders like Xue and Huang knew very little about the Demonic Sect. The sect leader had been in the Flying Immortal Sect all this time, but she still had some understanding of the general situation within the Holy Alliance.

This piqued Li Sus curiosity. The sect leader said, Occasionally, I cross the Mangkang Mountain. Theres an organization on the other side that specializes in selling information. You can obtain valuable intelligence from there.

Li Su understood and didnt ask any further questions. He realized that delving too deeply into this matter wasnt currently meaningful. The most important thing for the present Li Su was to achieve the Nascent Soul stage and elevate his cultivation. Moreover, with the Holy Maiden of Silent Moon now captured, her secret techniques had certainly caught Li Sus interest. Those techniques greatly boosted her combat power, albeit with a limited duration, but they could be highly effective during critical moments.

Li Sus hands moved, and within the killing formation, he glared towards the Holy Maiden of Silent Moon, causing her to lose consciousness truly. The Holy Maiden of Silent Moon was naturally unaware of his presence. She gazed from where the flying sword had come earlier, where Li Su was undoubtedly located. This time, the Holy Maiden of Silent Moon was truly unconscious. As expected, trying to deceive me, Li Su muttered.

In her palm, Li Su discovered a small coin-sized object. Upon closer inspection, he realized that this small, diminutive item was indeed perfect for subterfuge. It contained a potent poison, likely collected from some poisonous creatures fangs or venom sacs. After securing the item, Li Su scanned the Holy Maiden of Silent Moon with his divine sense. He ensured she didnt possess anything else. The sect leader had already placed numerous seals on her.

Meanwhile, Li Su began searching for the spoils of war. On the ground, there were scattered items from the storage bag. So many spirit stones! The quantity of spirit stones was overwhelming, and they were all sizable. The region where the Demon Sect was located has a denser spiritual aura than the three major sects. These spirit stones were equivalent to twenty pieces from the Flying Immortal Sect. They were about the size of soap bars. The Holy Maiden of Silent Moon carried many spirit stones with her. It would be worth several hundred thousand pieces if converted into the Flying Immortal Sects terms.

Master

Li Su, all of these belong to you, the sect leader interrupted Li Su before he could speak further. Considering her significant efforts, Li Su wanted to offer some to the sect leader. Even though the sect leader didnt lack spirit stones, her need had increased now that she had reached the Nascent Soul stage. However, she declined Li Sus offer. Li Su still wanted to insist, but the sect leader had already turned and left. She went to help Li Su gather the items that burst out of the other demonic cultivators storage bags.

The bodies of the demonic cultivators were now reduced to dust, and there wasnt much left of their belongings either. It was only due to the thunderous attack that the items in their storage bags burst out. Reluctantly, Li Su accepted the items the sect leader insisted on giving him.
