Chapter 101 : Ling Qing’er Arrived (6)
,000 Mastery points and 50 years of Martial Arts Evolution.
He added the 500,000 Mastery points to the Heavenly Slave Divine Finger.
After the attributes were refreshed,
Heavenly Slave Divine Finger: Perfection.
He was still 610 years away from breaking through to Level 7 of the Profound Realm for Martial Arts Evolution.
He flicked his fingers.
Apotropaic Divine Lightning shot out from his fingertips and transformed into a lightning net that decimated his corpse.
He then walked over to the girl.
With a slap of his palm on the ground, he opened up a pit and buried her.
As if sensing that Xiao Ran was in a bad mood, Dancer stuck his head out of the fold of his clothes and nuzzled his chest affectionately.
Although it was only at Level 10 of the Connate Realm, it could control the size of its physical body.
“I’m fine,” Xiao Ran said to Dancer.
Just as he was about to leave, a voice called out.
“Tiger Senior, where are you?”
“Who’s looking for him?” Xiao Ran thought with suspicion.
His spiritual soul energy gushed out and inundated the plum blossom forest. A disciple clad in the Yellow Sand Sect’s uniform shouted as he searched high and low.
“He’s from the Yellow Sand Sect? Are they colluding with each other?” Xiao Ran hazarded a guess.
After pausing for a while,
he utilized the Transformation Technique and transformed himself into the deceased tiger demon. Using the Nine Heavens Evil Spirit Purification Skill, he simulated his aura, creating a demonic aura that churned around him as he stepped out.
“Are you looking for me?” Xiao Ran appeared behind this disciple.
“Ah! Tiger Senior, how did you appear behind me?” The disciple was caught off guard.
He hurriedly explained his intentions.
“My sect master was afraid that you would forget about his wedding, so he specially sent me to invite you over.”
“How did he know I was here?” Xiao Ran asked.
The disciple smiled faintly. “Have you forgotten? Aren’t all these girls that you have been enjoying over the past few days arranged by our Sect Master for you?”
“They are very good.” Xiao Ran’s heart hardened when he heard that.
“Tiger Senior, let’s go over now. Our Sect Master is still waiting.”
“Lead the way,” Xiao Ran instructed.
They took a shortcut.
Under the disciple’s lead, they quickly arrived at the lair of the Yellow Sand Sect. In fact, they arrived ahead of Shen Yiming and Little Zhou.
An old man dressed in a bright yellow robe was waiting. He was called Huang Feng, and he was the Sect Master of the Yellow Sand Sect.
When he saw the tiger demon that Xiao Ran was masquerading as, his face was filled with effusive warmth and enthusiasm as he quickly stepped up to welcome him.
“You are here, my brother!”
“Yes, I’m here,” Xiao Ran played along with him.
“Come! We’ll talk inside,” Huang Feng ushered him in.
In the Yellow Sand Sect’s forbidden area,
in the study,
Huang Feng poured a cup of wine and placed it in front of Xiao Ran. “I know you don’t like to drink tea and like to drink wine. This is the Imperial wine that I had specifically ordered someone to collect. Have a taste! How is it?”
Xiao Ran did not move.
Huang Feng slapped his head and looked annoyed. “Look at my forgetfulness! I had totally forgotten about this. Big Brother Lei sent news that he’s on his way and will be here in two hours.”
“Oh,” Xiao Ran replied meaningfully.
He had planned to act immediately, but now there was no hurry.
When this ‘Big Brother Lei’ arrived, he would take action and capture them all.
“Are there more guests coming?”
Huang Feng shook his head. “No more! Among the demons, I only know you and Big Brother Lei. Our relationship is the strongest. As for the rest near the Qing Province, including people from the Imperial Court, those who should be invited I have already sent out the invitations.”
He then took a sip of wine.
“My brother, I’ll have to count on you guys this time. When the people from the Imperial Court arrive, give them a show of strength. Tell those disobedient people that I, Huang Feng, also have a backer. I’m not someone that they can simply push around.”
“Aren’t you afraid that our demonic aura will leak and they will see through us, which will in turn attract the old monsters in the capital city?” Xiao Ran asked.
“I bought two Aura-Concealing Talismans from the Supreme Pure Temple at a high price. As long as no Profound Realm expert comes in person, no one will be able to discover us.”
“Those stinking priests. They’re everywhere.”
Huang Feng nodded in agreement. “Their hearts are especially black. They had the gall to demand 200,000 taels from me for the two Aura-Concealing Talismans. If it weren’t for the fact that the talismans they refined were very effective, I wouldn’t have approached them.”
The deputy sect master of the Yellow Sand Sect appeared outside the door.
“Sect Master, the Divine Sword Guards have arrived.”
“Fine, I know,” Huang Feng responded.
He turned to Xiao Ran.
“My brother, wait here for a moment. I’ll go meet them. When I need you to appear, I’ll send someone to inform you. Don’t worry, when it’s all over, the thing I promised will definitely meet with your satisfaction.”
After he left,
Xiao Ran walked out of the study.
“Tiger Senior, what are your orders?” The leading disciple standing on guard outside asked respectfully.
“I’m just walking around,” Xiao Ran said.
After walking around the premises of the Yellow Sand Sect, everyone here seemed to know him. It seemed that he was a regular guest. The subordinates were all very respectful, and they did whatever he asked them to.
When he found himself at the room where the wine was stored, the disciple on duty bowed and asked, “Tiger Senior, have you finished your wine again?”
“Hmm.” Xiao Ran acknowledged with a nod of his head.
“The Sect Master has prepared high-quality wine for his wedding this time. They are stored here. I’ll go get some for you.”
Xiao Ran waved his hand. “There’s no need to go through so much trouble. I’ll go and help myself.”
“Yes.” The disciple opened the door for him.
Xiao Ran entered the room.
There were wine jars everywhere in the huge room.
“So many?” Xiao Ran was stupefied.
He took out the Spirit Calming Powder and put a little in each jar of wine. When he was done, he left the room.
Seeing that he came out empty-handed, the disciple was puzzled. “Tiger Senior, is the wine not up to your expectations?”
“Their quality is too awful,” Xiao Ran said.
“That’s true! Every time you come, the Sect Master will serve you with the best wine. Although the wine here is good, it’s far inferior to the wine that the Sect Master kept in his treasury. The difference in quality is big.”
“I’ll go ask him for some then.” Xiao Ran turned and left.
He returned to the study,
and waited quietly.
The Spirit Calming Powder had already been added to the wine. When they took action later, it would be a lot easier for Shen Yiming and the others, and the casualties would be minimized too.
As for him,
he was curious to see what kind of demon this ‘Big Brother Lei’ was.
He did not have to wait long. Although he was supposed to arrive in two hours time, Big Brother Lei arrived an hour earlier.
The person who led him over was the same disciple from the plum blossom forest.
“Brother Tiger, when did you arrive?” A brawny muscular man asked as he walked in, his footsteps making thunderous booms.
Where his footsteps were left, there was lingering thunder and lightning energy.
“I just arrived.” Xiao Ran stood up from his chair.
Activating his Spiritual Clarity Eye to check on him, Xiao Ran discovered that he was a Level 2 Profound Realm expert, and he was a Thunder Roar Demon.
These demons were born with thunder and lightning divine powers. As their evolution level increased, their strength became stronger and stronger. In the archive files of the Divine Sword Guards, there was an endnote at the back stating that this demon was very dangerous. It was impossible to take it down unless three experts of the same level as it was attacked at the same time.
However, there was a treasure inside it – the Lightning Pearl.
For those who were imbued with the essence of thunder and lightning, and those who practiced and developed skills with the lightning-attribute, if they obtained this item, it would give them a tremendous boost, sending their powers soaring sky high.
“If it weren’t for Huang Feng’s wedding, I don’t know when we would have the chance to meet again. We must have a good drink this time,” Big Brother Lei said warmly.
