Marry the Demon Sect Girl with No Bride Price-Chapter 338 - 143: Qiu Zhihe Steals Xia Qinglian’s Man
"Ah~~~"
At the back of Cloud Bamboo Mountain, Yun Wu opened his mouth wide, and after a while, inhaled all the Desolate Mist into his belly.
Qin Gengyun’s figure flickered, and he was already more than ten feet away. Without stopping, he quickly rushed towards the valley where the Cyan Lotus Sect’s relic was located.
"Sir, wait for me!"
Liu Su shouted from behind.
After seeing the words left by Qiu Zhihe, Qin Gengyun immediately found Liu Su. After some "severe interrogation," he finally pried open Liu Su’s mouth and learned that Qiu Zhihe had entered the Cyan Lotus Sect’s relic for closed-door cultivation.
Everyone heard that Qiu Zhihe had left without saying goodbye, and followed Qin Gengyun to the back of Cloud Bamboo Mountain.
Liu Su anxiously wanted to catch up. A fragrant breeze swept by, and Jian Yue, wearing a low-cut short skirt, caught up with Qin Gengyun and said with a coquettish smile:
"Master, don’t worry. The madam is gone, but I’m still here. Tonight, I’ll serve you well!"
Jian Yue’s skirt was very low in the chest and its hem was above the knee, exposing large areas of her fair skin. Her aura was both cold and alluring, making her a earthly marvel.
Liu Su stomped her feet angrily: "Little hussy! Stop seducing the master!"
A teasing laugh came from ahead: "Hehehe, Second Madam, don’t worry. I’ll surely plead with the master to allow us to serve him together."
"Shut up!"
Qin Gengyun snapped coldly. Only then did Jian Yue obediently fall silent. She feared no one except Qin Gengyun.
At this time, Mo Xiaolan, Yun Wu, Si Minglan, and Fang Xue also caught up from behind.
Qin Gengyun had a stern expression. Everyone remained silent as they quickly arrived at the secluded valley where the Cyan Lotus Sect’s relic was located.
However, the two massive stone doors had already vanished without a trace.
Liu Su opened her mouth wide: "How could this be? Where did the doors go?"
Qin Gengyun turned his head, fixedly looking at her. Everyone else also turned their gaze towards her, and Liu Su couldn’t keep pretending, surrendering with raised hands:
"I’ll tell, I’ll tell. Miss knows a kind of Concealment Array that can hide things, just like the array on Cloud Bamboo Mountain, though not as large, but enough to hide a relic."
Qin Gengyun directly pulled out the Heaven-Reaching Staff, and smashed it hard towards the spot where the stone doors originally stood.
With a loud boom, rocks flew, and a large crater was smashed into the wall of the valley.
Yet the two stone doors still did not appear.
Jian Yue approached Qin Gengyun with a coquettish smile: "Master, high-grade Concealment Arrays can transform the landscape. It seems madam doesn’t want you to disturb her seclusion. Don’t be angry, I’ll relieve your anger tonight."
Liu Su stepped forward to block Jian Yue, preventing her from approaching Qin Gengyun;
"Ye Xiyue, you little hussy, if you keep flaunting, I’ll really throw you into a brothel!"
Jian Yue giggled: "Second Madam, I’m just a humble maid. I can’t threaten your status, why such jealousy?"
"You..." Liu Su pointed at her, Jian Yue threw a seductive glance at Qin Gengyun:
"Master, I’ve just learned that to break a Concealment Array, one needs a Spirit Key, or Nascent Soul cultivation to forcefully break it."
Jian Yue’s figure flickered, and she flashed past Liu Su, arriving at Qin Gengyun’s side, puffing out her chest, her eyes teasingly seductive:
"Master, don’t you know the Co-Cultivation Method? I’m a top-grade Spirit Root, if we co-cultivate, it will surely help you break through swiftly, reaching Nascent Soul quickly, and then you can find the madam."
Liu Su was enraged: "Ye Xiyue, you little hussy, don’t think about taking advantage when the house is on fire. The master only likes the miss, he’ll never be bewitched by you!"
Qin Gengyun looked at Jian Yue, only this once, the once gentle fairy now in revealing attire, more seductive than a fox spirit.
Yet Qin Gengyun remained unmoved, his gaze still clear, and said flatly:
"If you act like this again, in three days I won’t give you any more spiritual power."
The Soul-devouring Pill was extremely toxic, acting up every three days, requiring the provider’s spiritual power to temporarily relieve it.
Hearing Qin Gengyun’s words, Jian Yue finally restrained herself, pulling up the intentionally lowered neckline, and made a respectful bow:
"Master, I dare not anymore."
Though her words said she dared not, her demeanor remained flirtatious, likely she hadn’t given up yet.
Qin Gengyun no longer paid attention to Jian Yue, turned to look at Liu Su with unprecedented seriousness, making Liu Su nervous under his gaze:
"Master, why... why are you looking at me like that?"
Qin Gengyun coldly stared at her: "What exactly is the relationship between you and the miss? Who are you two really? If you deceive me again, don’t follow me anymore!"
"Master, please, I’ll, I’ll tell."
Liu Su was frightened by his extremely serious expression and quickly said:
"The miss was originally a wealthy family’s daughter, I am her maid, but when we were young, our family was affected by cultivators’ magical combat, and everyone died, leaving only the two of us."
"Later we were taken to the Cyan Lotus Sect and made to cultivate Demon Sect Techniques."
"After the Cyan Lotus Sect was destroyed, we wandered to Yunling Town hoping for a peaceful life, and that’s when we met you."
Her story matched closely with what Qiu Zhihe said last night. Qin Gengyun steadily stared at Liu Su:
"The location of the relic should be a Cyan Lotus Sect secret, known only to core members. How did you know?"
Liu Su was silent for a moment, then sighed:
"Miss always didn’t let me say, fearing you might misunderstand, but now I must. The truth is, the miss has exceptional talent and was quite valued by the Sect Leader, who entrusted her with many tasks, including finding the relic."
Si Minglan frowned: "Since Qiu Zhihe held such a high status in the Cyan Lotus Sect, why has no one ever heard of her before?" 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢
Liu Su sighed again: "Blame it on Xia Qinglian!"
"Xia Qinglian?" Hearing this name, everyone was taken aback.
The Demon Sect Saintess Xia Qinglian, notorious for countless killings, a name feared by many.
Qin Gengyun frowned and asked: "How does it involve the Demon Sect Saintess?"
Liu Su said: "Xia Qinglian liked a younger brother in the sect, but he liked the miss, pursuing her constantly. Master, don’t misunderstand, the miss didn’t care about him at all."
"Yet Xia Qinglian thought the miss was trying to steal her love, so she became jealous and framed the miss for betraying the Cyan Lotus Sect, which led to the miss being injured by the Sect Leader and thrown into the dungeon."
"The miss’s injuries haven’t healed until now, so she needs closed-door retreat to recuperate."
Everyone was dumbfounded, Fang Xue widened her eyes in shock:
"So it was Xia Qinglian’s jealousy that caused Qiu Zhihe’s injuries?"
Si Minglan looked at Qin Gengyun: "Your wife is something else, even enchanting the man Xia Qinglian liked, but you are the real catch!"
Mo Xiaolan was also surprised, Yun Wu covered her mouth: "Sister Qiu is so beautiful, it’s really not surprising."
She was beautiful but unaware, forgetting she was the top of the Beauty Ranking.
Liu Su watched Jian Yue closely, knowing she was the only one who knew Qiu Zhihe’s true identity, fearing she’d expose them.
But Jian Yue merely smiled enchantingly, remaining silent.
Liu Su breathed a sigh of relief, having prepared this explanation long ago, just in case. Her recounting was smooth and credible, without any flaw.
Moreover, her story aligned well with Qiu Zhihe’s various manifestations.
As a seasoned liar, Liu Su was quite satisfied with her performance.
Qin Gengyun was silent for a long while before turning and walking out of the valley.
"Master, where are you going?"
Liu Su called out from behind.
Qin Gengyun did not turn his head, shouting loudly:
"To Zhenyang Sect. My wife said she’d come find me after her seclusion, so I’ll wait for her at Zhenyang Sect."
"If she’s delayed in her seclusion, I’ll cultivate diligently to reach Nascent Soul, then break the array to find her!"
