The Cold And Aloof Senior Sister Keeps Flirting With Me - Chapter 79.1
Qi Xianqing walked over and knelt before Mu Zhongzi, hesitantly asking: “Sect Master Uncle, did you wish to see me?”
Mu Zhongzi pondered in silence. After a long while, he turned around and handed Qi Xianqing a secret report.
Qi Xianqing was slightly startled.
The Northern Barbarian Tribes had allied with the Demon Cult.
This was not good news. Since the Great War between Immortals and Demons a thousand years ago, the Demon Race’s power had gradually waned, and the Barbarian Tribes had always remained neutral.
But if the Barbarian Tribes sided with the Demon Race, it would undoubtedly strengthen the Demon Race’s power.
It meant the return of the Demon Dao.
Mu Zhongzi slowly said: “I guessed correctly. The Demon Cult has started their activities again, and the Barbarian Tribes’ influence has begun to lean towards the Demon Dao!”
Qi Xianqing silently read the words on the secret report, saying nothing.
Mu Zhongzi: “After this Five Dragons Summit concludes, I will send you to the Northern Territory to eliminate these rebellious barbarians.”
Qi Xianqing’s expression hardened.
Mu Zhongzi: “Xianqing, never forget the hatred. Never forget that it was the Barbarian Tribes that destroyed your entire family back then.”
In the blood red sunset, the Five Dragons Sect Master’s face was grim. It seemed that mentioning the demonic evil had stung him with a matter of extreme loathing in his heart.
His emotions were particularly agitated.
“Humans and barbarians have always been two factions at loggerheads. They will only constantly betray and constantly plunge the common people of the world into suffering. They and humans can never become friends.”
Qi Xianqing frowned slightly and whispered: “Yes.”
The Five Dragons Compendium had blown up.
Yan Jue returned to her dorm, sat on her bed, and read the latest issue of the Five Dragons Compendium, feeling a little speechless.
She knew the male protagonist would eventually descend into demon hood, but she hadn’t expected the timing in the novel to be moved up.
What was the logic behind that?
He even wanted to take Qi Xianqing with him.
He should look at himself, was he even worthy?
The Five Dragons Compendium, Issue 598.
Chu Fu, the genius prospective disciple of the Five Dragons Sect, actually descended into demon hood at the Five Dragons Summit?
Was this due to secret maneuvering by others, or an insoluble Heart Demon?
The Five Dragons Sect has dispatched disciples to investigate.
Yan Jue was reading the paper when she suddenly heard a knock at the door.
Yan Jue ran to open the door, and unexpectedly saw Qi Xianqing standing there.
It was a cloudy day, and the sky had completely darkened.
Qi Xianqing, in a snow-white dress and carrying her sword, stood in the hallway outside the door, quietly looking at her.
Yan Jue was chilled by her imposing presence. She subconsciously stepped back, on guard: “What are you doing?”
Qi Xianqing: “Thank you, Junior Sister Yan, for saving me today. I have something else to tell you.”
Yan Jue: “…Oh.”
Qi Xianqing then walked in with her hands behind her back: “The Sect Elders are having a meeting. I told the higher-ups about the cliff cave, saying that there have been traces of the Demon Gate within the sect for a while. The day before yesterday during the match, Senior Sister Lin Xi’s state was strange, as if she had also fallen to the demon path.”
Yan Jue frowned slightly.
Qi Xianqing suddenly raised her hand and handed something to Yan Jue.
“These three Bone Piercing Nails are objects of the Demon Cult, but the Artifact Refining Hall has cleansed the evil spirits from them and added a layer of ice frost power.”
A few days ago, when Qi Xianqing and Yan Jue were organizing the secret treasures searched from the cave, Qi Xianqing sent some artifacts tainted with evil spirits to the Artifact Refining Hall. She hadn’t expected them to be returned so quickly.
Yan Jue’s eyes lit up as she looked at the three Bone Piercing Nails in Qi Xianqing’s hand.
Yan Jue’s spirit root had already evolved into the Variant Ice Spirit Root, and she was usually skilled in ice based spells. Qi Xianqing was aware of this.
Yan Jue took the three Bone Piercing Nails from Qi Xianqing’s hand: “Are these for me? Thank you.”
Qi Xianqing: “The Bone Piercing Nail is an extremely ruthless object. Unless you encounter a life threatening situation, you should use it with caution.”
Yan Jue naturally knew this.
Moreover, the Bone Piercing Nails were consumables. Once used, they would be gone, so they naturally needed to be conserved.
Yan Jue put the Bone Piercing Nails into her Qiankun Bag: “Thank you, Senior Sister.”
Qi Xianqing raised her hand, and an emerald-green jade seal lay in her palm: “And this seal.”
The Myriad Gu Seal.
Qi Xianqing: “After cleansing the Gu poison function, a healing function was added.”
As the two were talking, they suddenly heard the sound of rain outside the window. A faint mist of water seeped in.
Yan Jue: “…”
Qi Xianqing lifted her eyelids and looked outside: “It’s raining. What should we do?”
Yan Jue tentatively asked: “Do you know the Water Repelling Technique?”
The Water Repelling Technique is a spell where a cultivator forms a hand seal to ward off rain.
It was one of the basic supernatural abilities in the sect. The Water Repelling Technique was one of them.
But Yan Jue wasn’t sure if Qi Xianqing had learned any water elemental supernatural abilities.
Qi Xianqing: “No.”
The sky was already dark. The sound of the rain outside the window grew louder, and the wind blowing through the leaves sounded like a baby’s wail. The large trees in the distance were swaying violently.
Yan Jue was hesitating when she suddenly heard footsteps in the hallway outside.
Du Ming rushed towards her: “Yan Jue! Yan Jue!”
Yan Jue gasped, looked at Qi Xianqing, walked to the door, and only opened it a crack: “What is it?”
Du Ming: “Is this not a good time? Why don’t you open the door?”
Yan Jue: “I’m not wearing any clothes.”
Du Ming: “Oh, oh. I just received a notification from the Azure Green Manor that there will be a strong gale on Five Dragons Mountain tonight, and it has already started. Everyone is told not to go out. Be careful, don’t run around tonight.”
Yan Jue was stunned: “Okay.”
Yan Jue closed the door and turned back to look at Qi Xianqing: “A strong gale has started.”
If Yan Jue remembered correctly, the strong gale occurred once every three years, and each time it caused huge property damage and severely endangered the personal safety of the common people.
At a time like this, it would be best for Qi Xianqing not to go out.
The two were silent for a moment.
Yan Jue hesitated a little: “Why don’t you stay the night here?”
Yan Jue knew Qi Xianqing loved cleanliness and wasn’t sure if she would be willing to stay overnight here.
Since they were both women, it was no big deal. Yan Jue didn’t mind Qi Xianqing sleeping in her room.
Unexpectedly, Qi Xianqing glanced at the weather outside: “Alright.”
Yan Jue knew Qi Xianqing bathed every night, so before the strong gale intensified, she planned to go out and fetch hot water.
Just as Yan Jue was about to leave, she suddenly remembered something.
She took out a fruit plate from her Qiankun Bag: “I made this a few days ago… You can eat it if you’re hungry.”
Qi Xianqing had a habit of eating a late-night snack.
Anyway, every night Yan Jue went to the Ice Peach Garden, she saw Qi Xianqing eating something.
Since she was the host at Water Cloud Sect, she couldn’t be impolite when hosting Qi Xianqing.
Qi Xianqing was slightly surprised when she saw what was on the fruit plate.
The fiery red fruit was sliced thinly, marinated with sugar and spices. A faint sweet and sour scent could be smelled near the nose. It seemed to be the Spiritual Candle Fruit that Yan Jue had left behind that day.
Yan Jue had turned it into spiritual fruit candied preserves.
Qi Xianqing picked one up and tasted it. The sweet and sour flavor rushed onto her tongue, carrying a faint spiritual power.
Qi Xianqing’s brows curved slightly, her emotions complex.
It was delicious!
