123: Two women meet

The sky was clear and bright, without a single cloud in sight.

Ning Sui finished her cultivation, left the White Space, and came outside the cave dwelling.

She wore a white palace dress, her long hair cascaded like a waterfall, her figure was tall and slender, and a white veil covered her face, obscuring her features. However, her aura made people feel somewhat out of reach.

She held a thumb-sized crystal shard in her hand, her lips pursed slightly.

"Master... are you alright?"

Ning Sui couldn't help but think of Xu Qi'an, who was far away in Qinghe City.

Along this journey, Ning Sui had seen too much, and her state of mind had also changed considerably.

She finally understood the words Xu Qi'an had spoken that day.

"If it weren't for the resources Master gave me, I probably wouldn't even have reached the Foundation Establishment Stage."

She looked at the storage bag at her waist; the resources inside had been used up.

The resources Xu Qi'an had given her were only enough to support her Breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment Stage.

But after experiencing so much, Ning Sui also understood Xu Qi'an's cultivation level.

"Master is probably a Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator, but also a top-tier one among Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivators!"

"I didn't expect that nearly three years have passed in the outside world, and now my cultivation is similar to Master's!"

Thinking of this, Ning Sui couldn't help but smile sweetly.

Originally, she wouldn't have broken through to Foundation Establishment so quickly, but during her training and while killing demon Cultivators, she unexpectedly obtained this crystal shard.

She accidentally discovered that there was a space inside, and not only that, but the flow of time in the space was vastly different.

Including the time spent cultivating in the White Space, it had been a full twenty years or more.

Not only that, but Ning Sui also unexpectedly entered a cave dwelling and obtained the inheritance of a Core Formation Stage Cultivator.

She obtained a large amount of pills for Foundation Establishment Stage cultivation, as well as some second and third-tier Talismans.

"Now I am at the False Dan cultivation level!"

"Perhaps Master's cultivation level isn't even as high as mine!"

"When the time comes, I must go back and make Master look at me with new eyes!"

Ning Sui pursed her lips and smiled. When she thought of her Master, she smiled like a child.

Besides cultivating, the thing Ning Sui had done most during this time was kill demon Cultivators.

Moreover, Ning Sui was extremely ruthless when killing demon Cultivators, and because of this, the demon Cultivators in Qinghe Country had specifically given Ning Sui a name: White Fiend.

Conversely, some righteous Cultivators called Ning Sui the White-Clothed Sword Immortal.

Ning Sui rode a white jade sword and headed towards a Cultivation Qingzhu Market.

As soon as she entered the Qingzhu Market, she went into a private room in a pavilion.

There were already many Cultivators in this private room.

There were a total of five, three men and two women, all at the Foundation Establishment cultivation level.

As soon as they saw Ning Sui arrive, they immediately stood up and cupped their fists in greeting: "Greetings, White-Clothed Sword Immortal!"

Ning Sui raised her right hand, indicating that they didn't need to do so.

Then she took her seat.

A young male Cultivator in a green robe with an extraordinary demeanor then spoke to Ning Sui: "Ning Guniang, we have found the person you have been looking for."

"That person is now one of the Elders of the Demon Spirit Sect, and also one of the False Dan Cultivators second only to the Sect Master. He is known as the Fire Devil, and his name is Duan Chengxi."

Ning Sui was slightly startled, but she had already expected it in her heart.

She had now traveled throughout Qinghe Country and had also investigated traces in the village from back then. The only place she hadn't been to was the territory of the Demon Spirit Sect.

"I didn't expect that the demon Cultivator who killed my parents back then would now become one of the False Dan Cultivators of the Demon Spirit Sect!"

The young man in the green robe beside her couldn't help but smile when he saw Ning Sui's slightly stunned expression.

He then said: "Ning Guniang, the Qinghe Country Royal Family now has a plan to destroy the Demon Spirit Sect. Do you want to participate?"

Ning Sui then turned her face and thought: "Although I can kill that Fire Devil by myself now, there are many demon Cultivators in the Demon Spirit Sect, and it is definitely not suitable for me to go alone. Perhaps before I even encounter that Fire Devil, I will have already consumed a large amount of spiritual energy."

"Since the Qinghe Country Royal Family has this plan, I can indeed use their power!"

She then pursed her lips slightly and nodded.

"I agree to participate in this matter!"

The young man in the green robe was immediately overjoyed and then said.

"With Ning Guniang's participation now, the chances of winning this great battle have increased by a few points!"

"Oh, by the way, this matter is being handled by the Long Princess of the Qinghe Country Royal Family, Li Miaozhen. Why doesn't Ning Guniang meet her?"

"The Long Princess has heard about Ning Guniang's deeds and has admired you for a long time. She has always said she wants to meet you."

"Li Miaozhen?"

Ning Sui then nodded slightly.

The young man in the green robe smiled: "The Long Princess is next door. I'll take Ning Guniang there."

Then the young man in the green robe took Ning Sui to the private room next door.

The young man in the green robe opened the door for Ning Sui, and Ning Sui then walked in.

She immediately saw a beautiful woman wearing a golden palace dress.

"You must be Ning Guniang! Please sit!"

The woman in the golden dress in front of her immediately stood up, extended a hand, and invited Ning Sui to a seat.

Ning Sui was slightly startled, and then bowed.

"Greetings, Long Princess."

Li Miaozhen waved her hand, carefully sized up Ning Sui in front of her, and smiled: "White-Clothed Sword Immortal Ning Sui, you are indeed just as the rumors say, not only possessing breathtaking beauty, but your cultivation is also exceptional!"

Ning Sui shook her head: "Long Princess, you are too kind. Did the Long Princess look for me about the Demon Spirit Sect?"

Li Miaozhen nodded: "The Demon Spirit Sect is a tumor in our Qinghe Country, harming many Cultivators and common people. Our Qinghe Country Royal Family naturally wants to eliminate them quickly!"

Ning Sui nodded in affirmation. Her gaze then turned cold, and she said coldly.

"That is natural. Every demon Cultivator in the Demon Spirit Sect deserves to be executed!"

Li Miaozhen then nodded solemnly: "Our Qinghe Country Royal Family has already finalized the battle plan."

"With Ning Guniang's participation, this battle will definitely be a success in one fell swoop!"

"At that time, we will have to trouble Ning Guniang greatly!"

Ning Sui nodded: "Fellow Daoist, you are too kind. I, Ning Sui, will naturally do my best."

Li Miaozhen then took out a jade token and handed it to Ning Sui.

"This is my sound transmission token. If Ning Guniang needs anything, you can contact me at any time."

Ning Sui cupped her fists in greeting, then accepted the token and left the private room.

Li Miaozhen watched Ning Sui's departing figure, a smile on her lips: "As expected of Senior Lu's Disciple, reaching the False Dan Realm at such a young age."

"White-Clothed Sword Immortal Ning Sui!"

"I wish I were Senior Lu's Senior."

Li Miaozhen shook her head and laughed.

This was just a thought. After two years of contact, she found that Xu Qi'an's preferences were unpredictable and he was arbitrary.

She couldn't figure out his likes at all.

Although she had some thoughts of getting close to Xu Qi'an in her heart, after talking with Xu Qi'an, she gradually gave up on this idea.

"Opportunities are indeed not something everyone can obtain. It is a blessing that I can gain some insights and harvests from this!"

She then took a sip of the spiritual tea on the table, lost in thought for a long time.
