Chapter 37: We Will Certainly Keep Our Lips Sealed!

Pitiful.

Weak.

Helpless.

While Lin Xun was contemplating, the five Nascent Soul Realm Cultivators, who were highly respected in their respective Sects and feared by all they met, didn’t dare to breathe too loudly.

Too terrifying!

Truly terrifying!

Thinking back to the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.

They never expected that an Upper Five Realms Cultivator would be hiding in this small Mortal city!

The five of them had absolutely no room to fight back against him. He hadn’t even used any Secret Technique; just one punch per person was enough to severely injure all five of them!

They hadn’t even considered running away, because they knew that if they turned to flee, they would likely die even faster.

Fortunately, this great master was not bloodthirsty. He stated that as long as they did not cause trouble in the Zilin Holy Land and answered a few of his questions, they would be allowed to leave.

They weren’t worried that this great master was deceiving them, because their lives were already in his hands.

Lin Xun also hadn’t expected that the Demonic Path had undergone considerable changes during his years of seclusion.

First was the Saintess of the Huanxi Sect.

The Huanxi Sect cultivates through Dual Cultivation and even capturing Cauldrons. It can be said that the Huanxi Sect is extremely chaotic internally, and the Huanxi Sect even owns brothel chains in both the Mortal World and Cultivator towns.

However, every generation of the Huanxi Sect’s Saintess must maintain her virginity and practice the Huanxi Sect’s Soul Control Secret Technique!

Before the Secret Technique reaches Major Achievement, the Huanxi Saintess must not appear in the world! Even after appearing, the Huanxi Saintess is strictly forbidden from engaging in sexual relations, as she needs to use her virgin Yin essence to control a peerless expert!

This is how the value of the Huanxi Saintess can be maximized.

The target of the Huanxi Sect was naturally Lin Xun, especially since Lin Xun was “severely injured by the Dao,” making him easier to control.

They said that the Huanxi Saintess’s Soul Control Secret Technique has now reached Major Achievement and she has already appeared in the world.

With just a word, a phrase, or a glance—without even touching the Huanxi Saintess’s finger—some Righteous Path Disciples had already fallen into depravity.

However, Lin Xun didn’t think much of it.

A mere slut, does she really think she can disturb my Dao Heart?

Next was the contraction of the Black Dragon Sect’s battle lines, and the Four Great Demonic Sects seeking cooperation to jointly oppose the Righteous Factions, though the position of Alliance Leader is still under discussion.

Finally, Su Ying, the Saintess of the Ten Thousand Demon Sect, mobilized her forces and even issued the Ten Thousand Demon Command, seeking the rootless fruit from the Rootless Secret Realm!

“What is this rootless fruit used for?”

Lin Xun asked.

He truly didn’t know why Ying wanted this rootless fruit.

“Replying, Senior,”

The Huanxi Sect Female Elder said sweetly, even wiggling her tightly pressed thighs a few times.

“This rootless fruit is of Immortal Grade. Legend has it that it can not only allow Mortals to open their Spiritual Apertures and generate Spiritual Roots, but when consumed by Cultivators, it can also heal injuries, especially wounds related to the Dao. If this concubine is not mistaken, Su Ying is likely seeking the fruit for Lin Xun.”

“That’s right.” A Black-robed Elder quickly chimed in to show his usefulness. “Although Lin Xun is not in the Ten Thousand Demon Sect, it is always better to be prepared. Otherwise, setting aside the fact that the Rootless Secret Realm opens a century from now, it will take another thousand years for the rootless fruit to mature again.”

“Wait? Mortals can cultivate after eating it?”

Lin Xun immediately became alert.

“Y-yes,” the Huanxi Sect Female Elder quickly nodded.

But she was somewhat confused as to why this great master cared so much about this.

“Cough, cough, cough. Alright, your answers are satisfactory.”

Lin Xun waved his hand.

“You may leave. Also, quickly withdraw your Death Warriors. Otherwise, since I already know which Sects you belong to, if even a single person dies unjustly during the Zilin Grand Ceremony, I don’t need to elaborate on the consequences. You are welcome to test me.”

“This Junior wouldn’t dare.”

“Good that you don’t dare. Now scram.”

Listening to Lin Xun’s words, the five looked at each other, slightly disbelieving that they had truly survived.

“Still not leaving?”

Following Lin Xun’s reprimand, the five immediately knelt in a salute and vanished into the night.

Only the Huanxi Sect Female Elder felt some lingering regret.

This expert sounded like a young, robust man, and his cultivation was extremely high! If she could engage in some ‘cloud and rain’ with him, her own cultivation might advance significantly.

Unfortunately, even when she deliberately fiddled with her skirt hem, his eyes never glanced at her thighs.

The five survivors fled the city overnight, without even looking back.

“What do you all think! What is the identity of this Expert?”

After confirming their safety, the Bald Elder asked in a low voice.

“He shouldn’t be a Righteous Path Cultivator,” the Black-robed Elder stated. “Otherwise, we would have been annihilated long ago, and our Death Warriors would certainly have been crushed beforehand. This Senior seems to be giving us a chance.”

“But he is definitely not a traditional Demonic Path member, otherwise this Senior wouldn’t have stopped us,” the Yellow-toothed Elder said.

“Then could this man be…” Another Young Man didn’t finish his sentence, but everyone knew what he was trying to say.

Because there were rumors before that the Black Dragon Sect suffered heavy losses in top combat strength, and it was Lin Xun who caused it! The Black Dragon Sect even claimed that Lin Xun was in Luo City!

“It couldn’t be him,” the Huanxi Sect Female Elder shook her head. “Lin Xun failed to Merge with the Dao, and that injury is difficult to heal. Even if he miraculously survived, his strength couldn’t possibly be this formidable!”

“Indeed, we overthought it. In any case, let’s quickly withdraw the Death Warriors and avoid any further complications.”

“Mhm, please keep the events of this night confidential.”

“Of course.”

“We will certainly keep our lips sealed!”

Everyone nodded in agreement, then left separately.

However, once the five left Luo City, their first priority was not immediately disbanding the Death Warriors, but quickly sending a message via Flying Sword.

【Lin Xun is in Luo City! Realm is at least Jade Purity Realm!】

That night, atop a mountain peak, a woman stood tall and graceful under the moonlight. She wore a black dress, her face covered with a light veil, and her peach blossom eyes were moist and shimmering.

Unlike Jiang Qingshang’s clear and charming peach blossom eyes, the corners of her eyes curved slightly like willow leaves, carrying a natural light crimson hue. They were incredibly seductive and enchanting, captivating all beings and making people willing to give up everything.

A streak of sword light cut across the sky. Sensing its arrival, she slowly extended her hand, and the Flying Sword landed in her small, fair palm.

Opening the Sword Box and taking out the slip of paper, the girl’s peach blossom eyes merely blinked gently, yet it caused the Maidservants behind her to fall into a dazed enchantment.

In their hearts, the only reason Jiang Qingshang was ranked first on the se jia ranking was because their Mistress had not yet entered the world! When the ranking changes next time, the top spot is still unknown!

“Mistress?”

The time it takes for an incense stick to burn later, a Maidservant cautiously stepped forward and whispered.

Their Mistress seemed to have been looking at the short slip of paper for too long, and she wanted to share her Mistress’s worries.

“Go to Luo City.”

The girl’s lips parted slightly, and she turned to descend the mountain. Her silky words seemed to soften the breeze atop the peak.
