After Faking Her Death and Escaping, the Junior Sister Fell to the Demonic Path - Chapter 80

Traveling at maximum speed, Qin Qingyi wished she could immediately reach Qidong Mountain where True Person Wen Qing was located.

The communication jade slip in her hand had been lit up, and she learned from Xie Su’s words—

True Person Wen Qing was not the only one ascending; Elder Wei was also ascending.

As for why they suddenly ascended, Xie Su could not explain clearly.

Thus, Qin Qingyi became even more anxious.

Normally, if Master had any matters, she would definitely notify her beforehand. It was impossible to keep such a major event like ascension a secret…

Moreover, the path to ascension in the Heaven Profound Realm had been broken for a long time. There had been no ascending cultivators for a thousand years. Why was Master suddenly about to ascend?

There must have been some kind of unforeseen change.

The thought of this possibility made Qin Qingyi unable to suppress the worry in her heart.

Seeing this, Zhou Zhixue, who was beside her, could only comfort her: “Sister, don’t worry too much. Senior Brother just said that Master is still waiting for us, so there must be some things she wants to tell us. I think the matter won’t be too complicated.”

But these words were ultimately powerless.

After all, even she herself did not really believe such words.

Qin Qingyi remained silent.

She tried to contact True Person Wen Qing’s communication jade slip, but all the way there, she never connected even once, as if the message had sunk into the sea.

Master is not answering the communication.

What is it that is holding her up, making it impossible for her to even connect with her disciple’s communication, only able to wait for her to go there?

Qin Qingyi dared not imagine.

After several hours of fast travel, her spiritual energy was almost depleted. Qin Qingyi and Zhou Zhixue finally arrived at Qidong Mountain.

What they saw before them caused Qin Qingyi to nearly collapse.

As far as the eye could see, True Person Wen Qing was suspended in mid-air. Golden thunder clouds were rolling above her head, brewing the Heavenly Tribulation for the Mahayana Ascension stage.

But if it were just the Heavenly Tribulation, Qin Qingyi would definitely be delighted that her Master could ascend. Master had been stuck at the Half-Step Ascension for a long time, and now that she had finally achieved ascension after much hardship, she would naturally be happy for True Person Wen Qing.

However, the current situation seemed to be more than just ascension.

Under the rolling thunder clouds, her Master, True Person Wen Qing, was entangled with several strands of demonic energy.

Qin Qingyi saw clearly that those were Demon Seeds!

Demon Seeds with the same aura as the one that had once been parasitic on her arm!!!

“Master!!!”

Her eyes were splitting with anger. In an instant, she disregarded everything and flew toward True Person Wen Qing.

Why was Master being parasitized by a Demon Seed?!

Why did it have to be Master?!!

She frantically called out to Immortal Venerable Wu Wang in her heart, hoping she could figure out a way for her.

Seeing that she was getting closer and closer to Master, Qin Qingyi also saw her clearly: an extremely pale face, tightly closed eyes, and weak breathing—

A frailty that a person nearing ascension should not have.

In contrast, the demonic energy swirling around True Person Wen Qing was constantly surging.

It seemed to be consuming True Person Wen Qing’s spiritual energy to strengthen itself.

Watching Master weaken inch by inch before her eyes, while the demonic energy seemed to be flaunting itself, brandishing its claws at her, Qin Qingyi’s eyes were almost spitting fire.

“Master, Master!!”

“Your disciple is here to save you!!!”

She desperately called out to True Person Wen Qing, wanting to wake her from her coma.

But she could not get too close to True Person Wen Qing. The protection of the Heavenly Law restricted her, forcing her to watch from afar.

Qin Qingyi was blocked outside the restriction, frantically crashing into it, trying to rush in.

But the next second, the Heavenly Law brought down its punishment, causing her internal organs to instantly feel like they were being scorched, throwing her back heavily.

“Senior Sister, you can’t get in.”

Zhou Zhixue steadily supported her, her voice filled with worry.

She was rational enough and did not lose her mind like Qin Qingyi.

But—

Looking at the Master whose life and death were unknown in mid-air, she was also extremely worried.

Master, what exactly happened?

Qin Qingyi bent over and coughed up a mouthful of blood. The tearing pain in her chest reminded her of the strictness of the Heavenly Law.

But Master was right there, life and death unknown. Was she supposed to do nothing as a disciple?!

Waving her hand to push away Zhou Zhixue, Qin Qingyi stood up again, swaying.

“Get out of the way!”

“I’m going to save Master!!”

Qin Qingyi wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and looked up at the sky again.

Even though lightning flashed and thunder rolled in the air, warning her not to approach again, she did not retreat at all.

Seeing her like this, Zhou Zhixue naturally could no longer persuade her.

She knew she could not be persuaded.

So, the next moment, under Qin Qingyi’s confused gaze, Zhou Zhixue slowly drew her Chang Le Sword.

“Since Senior Sister is determined to do this, Junior Sister naturally cannot stop you. Since we are going to save Master, please allow Junior Sister to accompany you, so that Junior Sister can clear the way for Senior Sister first!”

Her words were firm, and the look in her eyes as she looked at Qin Qingyi was calm enough.

Qin Qingyi knew she was not joking with her.

“Then, thank you, Junior Sister.”

Her voice was hoarse. That strike from the Heavenly Law just now had caused her considerable injury.

After a couple of light coughs, the two moved together, flying toward True Person Wen Qing.

However, before they could get close to True Person Wen Qing this time, they were intercepted halfway.

This time, it was not the Heavenly Law, but Shangguan Yu.

Master’s Senior Sister, their Sect Master Martial Aunt.
