Join the Server“Junior Brother, why are you here!”
The moment Ye Cha’s voice resonated, Xiong Ni’s expression shifted dramatically. Disregarding the immediate peril to her life, she urgently turned her head towards Ye Cha, who was slowly approaching. Her heart pounded with intense anxiety.
Demonic cultivators acted without scruple. For female cultivators like them, encountering such individuals usually meant a swift death.
However, if a male cultivator fell into their hands, a fate worse than death awaited them!
Especially since the demonic enchantress before them was from the Ziyan Sect. The mere thought of the Ziyan Sect’s notorious rumors made Xiong Ni desperate enough to stomp her feet in frustration.
Fourth Junior Sister’s sound transmission had already been sent out. So why was Junior Brother Ye Cha still here?
****
In stark contrast to Xiong Ni’s worries, Ke Qian’s eyes lit up the moment she saw Ye Cha appear.
Though only a few days had passed since their last meeting, seeing Ye Cha again, Ke Qian found her longing for him had intensified rather than diminished. She no longer had the mind to deal with the others; her sole desire was to quickly take Ye Cha away from Lingtian Sect.
Her purpose in attacking Xiyun Peak this time was to leave with Ye Cha.
Having learned that Shen Ruotong had already departed Lingtian Sect, and knowing that the sect’s reclusive elders would not intervene unless the sect faced annihilation, Ke Qian’s courage swelled. This allowed her to devise a particularly audacious plan.
She deliberately left enough time for the women of Xiyun Peak to send sound transmissions to Ye Cha. Afterward, she intentionally tore open a breach in the barrier enveloping Xiyun Peak.
Everything was meticulously orchestrated to lure Ye Cha to her.
Initially, Ke Qian had countless questions she wanted to ask, but seeing Ye Cha unharmed, she suddenly lost the desire to voice them.
Before, Ke Qian had always regarded men as mere playthings. However, Ye Cha was different.
Ever since their separation that day, whenever Ke Qian closed her eyes, Ye Cha’s gentle smile would immediately surface in her mind, preventing her from getting any proper sleep.
To combat this, Ke Qian did not meekly surrender to her thoughts. Instead, she tried even more rigorously to suppress them. Alas, her efforts yielded minimal results.
Consequently, after only three days, Ke Qian could no longer resist. She activated a secret art, intending to summon Ye Cha. He did arrive, but the person who appeared was not Ye Cha.
It was another male cultivator.
Ke Qian swiftly subdued this male cultivator, Wang Li. From his lips, she learned that Ye Cha had been forcibly taken by Shen Ruotong, now a registered disciple kept constantly by her side.
Due to his existing conflict with Ye Cha, Wang Li spoke a great deal of ill about him.
In his words, Ye Cha had successfully risen through the ranks by virtue of his good looks, gaining the favor of Sect Master Shen Ruotong—a truly cunning schemer.
Yet, when these words reached Ke Qian’s ears, their meaning transformed entirely.
She imagined the Lingtian Sect Master as a bully, exploiting her power. Infatuated with Ye Cha’s beauty, Shen Ruotong had forcibly taken him as a disciple against his will, keeping him on Xiyun Peak to do this and that.
At the mere thought of these possibilities, Ke Qian’s heart burned with anxiety; she could not tolerate it any longer.
Thus, after Wang Li delivered the books, Ke Qian immediately and impatiently released herself from the binding of the Spirit-Sealing Rope. She then hid in a corner of Lingtian Sect, awaiting her opportune moment.
Ke Qian mused that the agonizing days had finally yielded results, and a sense of relief washed over her. An involuntary, faint smile graced her lips, and her dark eyes twinkled like stars in the night sky, full of sparkling light.
“Ye Cha, you’re finally here.”
There were no ugly women in the cultivation world, and a woman as delicate as Ke Qian was particularly unlikely to inspire ill will.
At this moment, she appeared utterly devoted, devoid of her earlier murderous frenzy. If it were any other male cultivator, their heart would likely swell with unstoppable pride.
After all, to emotionally tame such a woman was certainly something to be proud of.
However, Ye Cha was unlike ordinary male cultivators. His ambition was vast, as evidenced by his direct aim for the Sect Master of Lingtian Sect. Even as a Ziyan Sect Protector, Ke Qian could not become his prey.
She was merely a tool for him to leave Lingtian Sect.
Since he had sacrificed his true desires to overcome the myriad difficulties set by the heavens, why would Ye Cha abandon the root for the branch and waste his time?
It was like playing a game with superb equipment and skills, yet instead of challenging stronger bosses, he chose to slay chickens in the novice village.
“If you only wished to see me, please do not harm anyone else on Xiyun Peak.”
Facing Ke Qian’s affectionate gaze, Ye Cha’s expression remained largely unchanged. Yet, his eyes seemed to hold an inexplicable sorrow, making him appear as ethereal as mist, and as elusive as the wind.
This sent a pang through Ke Qian’s heart. Without a word, she simply nodded to Ye Cha and slowly spoke her truest thoughts: “If you come with me, I won’t kill them.”
Whatever Ye Cha wished to do, as long as he desired it, she would do her utmost to fulfill it.
Though she felt a twinge of regret at not being able to eliminate future powerhouses of Lingtian Sect, she found herself unable to refuse Ye Cha’s request.
Alas.
She was probably smitten. Smitten with Ye Cha.
“Junior Brother Ye Cha, no… *cough*, she’s a demonic cultivator, don’t be deceived! If… *cough*, if you’re doing this for us, we’d rather be killed by the enchantress than have you endure such humiliation for our sake.”
However, just as Ke Qian finished speaking, the heavily wounded Senior Sister Lu Xi suddenly interjected.
Despite her severe injuries, her mind remained clear.
Initially, Lu Xi had harbored a slight animosity towards this newly arrived junior brother, believing he wasn’t as innocent and harmless as he appeared. She had already prepared for a long period of observation to discern his true nature.
But before her assessment could even begin, the demonic enchantress had abruptly launched an attack.
Now, seeing Ye Cha step forward for their sake, Lu Xi felt a profound gratitude. She could not bear to watch her junior brother leap into a pit of fire.
Before Master left, she had entrusted her several junior sisters and brothers to Lu Xi’s care. If something were to happen to her junior brother now, how could she ever account for it to Master?
With this thought, a flicker of resolve crossed Lu Xi’s eyes. With her life already on the line, she could no longer hold back. Even if the after-effects were severe, she had to act now. As long as her junior sisters and brothers were safe, that was all that mattered…
“Senior Sister, only by living can hope be preserved. Ye Cha does not wish for any harm to befall you all. Originally, Ye Cha was merely a minor outer disciple of Lingtian Sect. To have the good fortune of becoming Master’s registered disciple is already Ye Cha’s honor, and my Senior Sisters have always been very caring towards Ye Cha. Therefore, Ye Cha hopes everyone can stay safe and well.”
However, just as Lu Xi made her decision, Ye Cha suddenly turned his head to look at her. As he spoke, the clear and resolute expression in his eyes plainly conveyed his determination. Having reached this point, he wished to see no one die.
This caused Lu Xi’s expression to freeze for a moment, and then her eyes welled up with tears.
Junior Brother Ye Cha was truly too kind!
