"Refining a Soul Puppet... well, I've read the refining manual too. It's indeed some complicated skill. It usually takes a few decades to refine one, and people often fail in the end. Now, if the Venerated Supreme Devil succeeded, I'm afraid he's learned from a master who had done it."
Tianpi retracted his idle face and replied sternly.
"Yes, Gnawing Devils Sect is a real evil sect. They've been lying low all these years, but at the same time, the orthodox sects couldn't defeat them back then. So, in the past years, we haven't get into any trouble. But now, the Venerated Supreme Devil is about to come out of his practice. Hua Qiyue frowned because he would be a difficult character to handle.
Tianpi felt tender for her in his heart. If he could leave here, he could help Hua Qiyue and save her a lot of trouble. She wouldn't have been so frustrated like now.
Collecting himself, Tianpi also felt hopeless for him being concerned abo
The people above saw this and were shocked. Yun Shimo cried out involuntarily, "Qiyue!" Before his voice had faded, she had already disappeared from the ground, leaping down into the abyss. Since that bloody battle, everyone had been extremely shocked. Accidents often happen when people are at their least prepared. After all, the first Soul Puppet had managed to reach the opposite side. Everyone thought that Hua Qiyue should not face any more problem. Yet this had happened! "Everybody, take a step back!" Ji Feng's face was grim. "You people wait here. I'll go down too." "Me too!" Huangfu Xuan quickly stepped out and walked over to the cliff. He saw that it was pitch-black below, but still leaped down fearlessly. Ouyang Youche quietly stood out. A solemn look was on his handsome face. "Brother Ji, you stay here. If anything happens to Brother Yun, you will be the one in charge of pill-refining... "
"Aren't you eager to get out? Why come into this place?" The hare which had slept so soundly inside Yun Shimo's robe sleeve woke up. It spoke in some surprise. After falling down the abyss, the hare had experienced waves of exhaustion and decided to nap. It was not worried that Hua Qiyue and Yun Shimo would face any danger. It knew quite well how powerful these juniors were. Hua Qiyue pursed her lips, not answering. The hare gave a cold snort. It bounced upon its feet and instantly leaped up onto Hua Qiyue's shoulder. "Lass, why are you angry and ignoring me?" The hare's noisy voice started to resound. Hua Qiyue shushed it. "Don't make a noise. If another tenth-level demonic beast comes out... " "Humph, what's so scary about a demonic beast. I will unleash a lightning bolt and incinerate it!" The little hare said arrogantly. Yun Shimo gave it an icy stare and started to sn
Hua Qiyue was conquered by Yun Shimo's crazy kiss. In the cave, there was only the sound of their frantic breathings. Luckily, the hare was nowhere to be found. Otherwise, it would cover its mouth, pretending to vomit blood... A mistiness was in Hua Qiyue's eyes. She felt that her soul had been abducted. The eyes of the jade phoenix hairpin in her right hand suddenly glowed with a resplendent light. Unfortunately, Yun Shimo and Hua Qiyue could not detect it. When Yun Shimo's mouth departed from Hua Qiyue's lips, there was a trickle of blood by its corner. He wiped away that trickle of blood and started to gently caress Hua Qiyue's flushing face. "Qiyue, no matter what I do, you are the only one... in my heart. Princess Qianyang is an extremely dangerous person. Don't get too close to her. That's all I have to say." Tenderness and solemnity were interlocked in Yun Shimo's eyes. Hua Qiyue gave a start.
After returning to the capital, the company rested and practice, waiting quietly for Venerated Supreme Devil to emerge from his retreat. Chou Tianhen had been killed. This meant one fewer powerful helper for the Venerated Supreme Devil. Upon their return, Hua Qiyue discovered that some members of the Divine Eyes Organization had joined the alliance. Yun Shimo to grab time to refine his pills. He tried his best to refine more Qi-gathering Pills and Recovery Pills. Everyone had one Heaven and Earth Revitalizing Pill—in other words, they each had only one chance to recover from the brink of death. If there was a second time, the Heaven and Earth Revitalizing Pill would not work like in the first. Its effect would be greatly diminished. On the other hand, Princess Qianyang's heart was aching for Yun Shimo. She decided to see him once every three days. In other words, they would have a rendezvous every three days. Alth
Yun Shimo's face was grim. He immediately gave Bingyi some antidote powder which could counteract some of the aphrodisiac effects of the laced soup. Bingyi took it and gradually, the energy racing around his body finally calmed down. Yun Shimo poured out a bowl of soup and dipped his fingertips into it. He brought it to his nose and sniffed. Then he sneered. "Aphrodisiac Powder—what a powerful drug. But... Qianyang shouldn't be this sort of a person." Bingyi's forehead was breaking out in cold sweat. Although he had taken the antidote powder. its effects would only be felt gradually. Right now, he had to bear with the pain. "Your Highness... I don't understand... wasn't you in love with Princess Jinghua? Why... have you fallen for Princess Qianyang so suddenly? And you trust her so much. Why... " Yun Shimo was rendered momentarily speechless by Bingyi. He shook his head. "Bingyi, for some things, you don't need to
Hua Qiyue was an extraordinary granddaughter. Her words surely could be trusted. "Tell Father the same thing for me. Don't let anyone else know this." Hua Qiyue said in a whisper. The Old Madame nodded heavily. "Don't worry, Grandma won't let you worry." "Well, I've shielded Hua's Mansion with a powerful Protection Array. Ordinary people won't be able to enter. At least... no one from the capital can." Hua Qiyue gave a faint smile. Two days ago, she had got the servants to purchase plenty of grains and necessities for storage in the house. After she bid farewell to the Old Madame, Hua Liting stared quietly at Hua Qiyue. He was a great general. Yet, in front of his daughter, he now seemed so insignificant. "Father, you must take care of yourself. Best listen to Grandma." Hua Qiyue gave a faint smile, a mysterious look in her eyes. Then, she went up the carriage with Tianci. The company s
The man was in a blood-red robe, his hair disheveled, with a face so haggard that one could clearly discern his cheekbones. His eyes were bloodshot and full of ruthless cruelty. The man was emanating an aura of someone who feasted on blood. He so shocked his two disciples that their legs began to wobble. They slumped onto their knees with a thud. "Our respects to Sect Leader!" "You mean... they are all dead?" The man asked coldly. His voice resounded as if from the depths of hell, shuddering the heart. "Y... yes..." The man was the Venerated Supreme Devil. He had just broken into the Great Completeness of Round Sun. During his cultivation, he felt extremely uneasy, as if something momentous had happened. Therefore, the moment he broke into the Great Completeness of Round Sun, he emerged from his retreat, although he had not consolidated the level. He did not expect such astounding news the moment he
"Left Custodian, what do you mean by this?" Huangfu Shenglin's countenance turned grim. He did not expect his man to act against him. "His Majesty ordered me to protect Your Royal Highness! The situation's too critical now. Please stay over there, Your Royal Highness!" The Left Custodian shouted. Hua Qiyue could already stand. She stood beside Yun Shimo, ignoring that Left Custodian. Everyone knew the Emperor's thoughts. He must have some even more powerful Qi Artists by his side. To preserve the royal line, he must have left himself room for contingencies. He could not reveal to Hua Qiyue all his trump cards. "Outrageous! Release me at once!" Huangfu Shenglin was frustrated and angry. But the Left and Right Custodians picked him up and hurriedly retreated to the woods by the side. The halo above the Venerated Supreme Devil's hand became bigger and bigger. The hare, which
