Chapter 15: A New Storm Has Come
It was midnight.
Xiao Jinse laid on the table and poked at the bottom of the paper frog she had just made.
She pressed and the paper frog jumped.
She was bored.
In fact, her wound was almost healed, but it was better to rest for a few days longer.
At that moment, a seductive "Ah ah ah" cry suddenly came from the next room.
Xiao Jinse, who had been somewhat depressed, suddenly stood up and became very energetic.
Wasn't that Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian's room?
That cry just now…
What's the situation?!
Xiao Jinse frowned.
She was very familiar with Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian and knew that it was not her voice.
Did someone sneak up to the Qiongming Peak late at night?
Xiao Jinse shook her head slightly.
No matter what the situation was, as a member of the Qiongming peak, she couldn't stand by and ignore it.
Because of the protective magic array, she couldn't use her Divine Sense to observe the situation, so she had to go directly!
Xiao Jinse ran out of the room with her sword in hand.
In the yard, she met the jade rabbit and Yu Ying who also heard the sound.
Yu Ying said hurriedly, "Is Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian in danger?"
Xiao Jinse shook her head.
She walked quickly to the door of Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian's room. The door was open and there was no one in the room.
Xiao Jinse's eyelids shot open, and she found that there was one person missing.
"Where is the Third Younger Martial Sister?"
"Haw haw!"
The jade rabbit was also aware of this problem.
Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian and Su Youwei had disappeared.
What happened?!
Xiao Jinse's eyes fell on Su Youwei's door, which was open.
"Let's go and have a look."
She walked in front, but the jade rabbit rushed ahead of her. When her long ears pushed, the door opened with a squeak.
Xiao Jinse came over.
She lifted her right foot and pulled it back when she was about to cross the threshold.
"?"
In her field of vision, the third Elder Martial Sister was lying on the bed, while the disappeared Martial Sister Bai Lian was sitting beside her.
Right hand, right hand…
Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian, what are you doing?!
Xiao Jinse was gape-mouthed.
Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian's right hand was clearly on the third Martial Sister's chest, and there was a faint white light flashing at the contact surface.
She looked at the white light and the sword in her hand. She looked at the white light and the sword again…
Xiao Jinse felt that her mind couldn't understand this situation.
Was she dreaming?
Why did Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian sneak into the Third Younger Martial Sister's room in the middle of the night?
Damn it!
She lost miserably.
She wanted to cooperate with the Third Younger Martial Sister to deal with the jade rabbit and the fourth Younger Martial Sister. Who expected that the Third Younger Martial Sister would backstab her immediately?
She should have known that this partnership could not be secure.
The jade rabbit's reaction was no better than Xiao Jinse's.
The calmest one was Yu Ying.
"Is the Third Elder Martial Sister hurt?"
Since the second Elder Martial Sister and the jade rabbit didn't move, she was going to have a look.
So Yu Ying squeezed in through the middle.
It was as if she had pressed a special switch.
Wow.
Bai Lian's body trembled with a flash of white light.
At that moment, her soul was drawn from the sea of Su Youwei's divine sense and returned to her body.
"Puff~"
As Bai Lian let out a sigh of relief, her face lit up with a radiant smile and a faint rosy hue appeared on her white skin
After looking down, she moved her hand away from Su Youwei's chest.
She didn't know why her hand was there.
It's not her fault, really.
In fact, there was nothing to be nervous about. Anyway, the Third Younger Martial Sister didn't know.
Bai Lian shook her head secretly. As soon as she turned around, she saw the other two Martial Sisters and the jade rabbit at the door.
"！"
How did they come so fast!
The task suddenly appeared.
[Task 1: Loudly explain, "Things are not what you think!" (Reward: Secret Medicine - Peach Blossom Water)
[Task 2: Sigh, "The third Martial Sister's internal demon has finally been eliminated!" (Reward: Soft Skill+1)]
"……"
Do I need to think?
Choose Task 2 of course!
Bai Lian sighed, "The Third Younger Martial Sister…"
Eliminated her internal demon?
Xiao Jinse, who was dejected because Bai Lian was "touching and laughing", suddenly stopped.
Of course, she knew that the Third Martial Sister had been struggling with her internal demon for a long time.
It turned out that Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian was eliminating the internal demon for the Third Martial Sister!
Xiao Jinse felt guilty.
She was really stupid. She thought that Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian was doing bad things with the Third Younger Martial Sister just now!
Bai Lian wanted to say something more, but Su Youwei, who was lying in bed, also moved.
Her closed eyes suddenly opened. After a few seconds, she sat up and said in surprise:
"Why are you all here?"
Xiao Jinse switched the topic, "I heard that your internal demon was destroyed?"
Su Youwei got excited.
She nodded her head vigorously.
Yes, that's it.
Once the internal demon left, she no longer had to worry about being entangled by her internal demon during her cultivation.
She was still the weakest one on the Qiongming Peak, but she knew that she would soon be able to fly high, leaving the second Elder Martial Sister, who could only practice her strength, far behind!
Su Youwei said with a smile, "I can try to break directly through to the Golden Core Stage after my cultivation base breaks to the peak of the Foundation Establishment Stage."
"……"
This must be showing off!
Xiao Jinse bit her teeth.
Do you think this will frighten me? Naive!
She decided that she could not rely on cooperation with the third younger Martial Sister. She had to work hard to become stronger.
Su Youwei just smiled. Since Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian didn't reveal it, she didn't intend to show the other her to others. That was her trump card!
……
Bai Lian couldn't get a rest even after sending the younger Martial Sisters back to their rooms.
Because the sect leader also sent someone to ask about the screams.
Bai Lian explained that it was the third Martial Sister who successfully suppressed her internal demon and made some small noise in the process.
As for the Ten Thousand Poison Pearl, she didn't say anything.
Having been persecuted by rumors countless times, she knows the importance of keeping a low profile.
Once someone spreads the news that the Third Younger Martial Sister has a broken immortal weapon, the Duxian sect will definitely encounter a disaster.
Even the whole sect might be destroyed.
Even if An Lan can deal with these things, it will still be very annoying.
"Congratulations."
The deacon who came to ask questions bowed his head and left.
Now Bai Lian can finally have a rest.
She lay in bed, slightly tired after the battle, but she was not sleepy.
What happened not long ago passed through her mind like a slideshow.
The final result was naturally good.
After a heart-to-heart talk, the third Martial Sister and her internal demon reached an agreement. The third Martial Sister gave up the intention of expelling her internal demon, and her internal demon also gave up the intention of taking over her body.
They set their goal on the Ten Thousand Poison Pearl which had just lost its item spirit. The internal demon decided to enter the Ten Thousand Poison Pearl and become the new item spirit of the Ten Thousand Poison Pearl.
In the words of the internal demon, although she had her own consciousness, the impulse to kill was still her nature. It was a good thing for her to take charge of the Ten Thousand Poison Pearl.
There was no need to worry about her losing herself. She could continue to grow in the Ten Thousand Poison Pearl.
This was a win-win decision!
The Third Younger Martial Sister finally overcame her previous life's troubles, which made Bai Lian, who had always been watching over her, very pleased.
There was a big difference between the Ten Thousand Poison Pearl with and without an item spirit.
The most obvious one was "Whether it is easy to use".
With the cooperation of the internal demon, the Third Younger Martial Sister didn't need to learn complicated spells anymore. She could put the pearl into her body with one thought.
It was also convenient to take it out.
As for more uses, it needs to be developed slowly by the Third Younger Martial Sister herself.
Bai Lian couldn't give any useful advice, but there was another thing she can do.
She decided to take the third Martial Sister to the Sand Region after her cultivation base was firmly established at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Stage.
The immortal who brought the Ten Thousand Poison Pearl to this world died there, and most of his relics were left scattered under the yellow sand. With the memory of the third Martial Sister in her previous life, they could gather the materials needed to repair the Ten Thousand Poison Pearl as soon as possible.
……
May.
When the heat wave in summer just blew over the East Divine Land, the Nanwang Kingdom, located in the depths of the Sand Region, became lively.
"The ancestor worship ceremony will be held in half a month."
On the city wall layered with loess, looking at the black desert storm in the distance, stood a woman in cool clothes with a firm look in her eyes.
This year's ancestor worship ceremony would be different from any previous one.
In order to ensure the smooth progress of the ceremony, she was willing to pay any price!
