305: crack

A clear, cold female voice broke the movements of the Qing Luan.

Although these young Qing Luan looked on the verge of death, their situation was quite urgent.

But as soon as they heard this female voice, they all stopped moving.

They lowered their heads, quietly waiting for something.

Soon, a Green-haired woman emerged, dressed in a bathrobe.

She walked barefoot on the snow, her hair still glistening with water droplets.

The pristine white bathrobe only covered her vital areas.

As she walked, each step caused the bathrobe to part, revealing her fair, rounded thighs.

The split in the robe reached just a little below her groin.

If one observed closely, it would be almost apparent that she was wearing nothing underneath.

But the woman was completely unconcerned, not caring at all about her potentially exposed body.

As she approached the Qing Luan, their lowered heads sank even deeper.

They dared not look up at the Green-haired woman's somewhat revealing body.

They completely ignored the 'benefits' offered by the Green-haired woman.

This was because the one who had arrived was none other than their clan leader—Qing Li!

They hadn't expected that such an incident would awaken their clan leader so quickly.

And from her appearance, it was clear she had come directly from taking a bath.

However, she was not surprised that such a grave incident would draw the clan leader's attention; on the contrary, this was a normal phenomenon.

Within the clan, the clan leader could detect any slight disturbance.

It was just that the clan leader had arrived and immediately ordered them not to treat the young Qing Luan, which left them a bit puzzled.

But this was the clan leader's command, and the hierarchy among demon beasts was strict; they dared not disobey the clan leader's words.

If she said not to move, they wouldn't move; if she said to stop, they would stop.

Qing Li slowly and unhurriedly walked over, saying, "Your Excellency, won't you say a few words?"

The Qing Luan in the field were somewhat bewildered, completely unaware of whom the clan leader was speaking to.

However, what the clan leader said must be correct.

Seeing no one respond for a long time, Qing Li looked in a certain direction without speaking.

After a while, the wailing young Qing Luan suddenly stopped its cries.

"So I was discovered after all!"

A voice echoed in the field, its tone calm but carrying a hint of regret.

The Qing Luan quickly shifted their gaze to the source of the voice.

But after searching, they found that the voice was coming from the very young Qing Luan that had just been wailing.

At this moment, the young Qing Luan was completely different from its previous miserable state.

Its gaze was deep, its expression calm, with a sense of resignation.

Seeing that the other party had finally responded, a hint of killing intent flashed in Qing Li's eyes. "Your Excellency, you have calculated well. If I'm not mistaken, you should be a God Cultivation, and your realm is not low.

You knew that my clan's juniors all had methods I had laid down on them.

But you were confident in breaking my methods.

And to be safe, you first attacked and killed some of my clan's juniors, then took the opportunity to severely wound and possess a few others.

The purpose was to make the methods on them react simultaneously, interfering with the feedback sent to me.

Coupled with your God Cultivation methods, you were just a hair's breadth from succeeding, truly, just a hair's breadth.

If it were a Demon Emperor Realm triple-stage cultivator, you would have already succeeded."

As if to allow time for her words to sink in, Qing Li walked very, very slowly.

Although to outsiders, she was walking at a normal human pace.

In reality, if a normal person were to walk for that long, they would have arrived by now.

Qing Li spoke lightly, but the killing intent in her eyes grew even stronger.

After a moment of silence, the voice came from the young Qing Luan again, "Can you spare my life?"

Qing Li smiled at the words, revealing a mesmerizing, enchanting smile that could topple nations. "You are very clever!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Qing Li turned around and left in the direction she had come from.

On the spot, the life force on the young Qing Luan gradually dissipated, turning it into a complete corpse.

In fact, the other party had already committed suicide the moment she arrived.

A God Cultivation's methods on the soul were unmatched by any other system.

The other party chose to self-destruct their soul, and even she, a Demon Emperor Realm quadruple-stage cultivator, couldn't stop it.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have wasted so much time talking to him.

She would have long since extracted his soul, tormented him severely, making him endure eternal torture, unable to live or die.

The other party was decisive enough, understanding that if he didn't succeed, he would achieve benevolence. After failing, he didn't drag things out and ended his own life on the spot.

That last soft plea was merely a tactic to delay time, fearing that she might have a way to stop his self-destruction.

As Qing Li's figure slowly disappeared from the sight of the Qing Luan, Qing Li's pleasant voice echoed in the ears of all the Qing Luan,

"This matter is concluded, but do not yet notify the elders who are out searching and sealing to return.

This is a good opportunity to thoroughly search for any flies or rats, both inside and outside the clan.

Qing Guang, I'm entrusting this task to you.

Furthermore, since such an incident occurred within the clan, all of you bear responsibility. You will receive your punishment afterward!"

"Understood!"

The Qing Luan quickly accepted the order, then stood still in their positions for a while, ensuring no new commands came from the clan leader.

Only then did they straighten their backs and begin to move again.

Qing Guang was the most highly cultivated among this group of Qing Luan. At Qing Li's command, he now led the actions of the Qing Luan.

Under Qing Guang's leadership, all the elders followed him to carry out the clan leader's task.

However, one elder standing behind him still had his head slightly bowed.

From below, black, tentacle-like growths could be seen in his eyes.

But they quickly retracted from his pupils and the corners of his eyes, disappearing.

Only a mysterious smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

An elder next to him patted him, "Qing Guang, what are you spacing out for? The clan leader has left. Now we need to follow Elder Qing Guang to search the territory."

With that pat from the elder, the elder called Qing Guang suddenly looked up.

His face was ruddy, and he looked refreshed, no different from his normal state.

The elder asked, "What are you spacing out for? Let's go!"

Qing Guang followed with an embarrassed expression, "Ah, I'm sorry, I accidentally zoned out just now."

"What's wrong today? I called you for a long time, and you didn't answer."

"Nothing much, just thinking about a cultivation problem that has bothered me for a long time. I finally have a clue today, so I wasn't paying attention and zoned out!"

"Oh, I see. Then congratulations."

"Just a small gain, not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning…"

No demon noticed Qing Guang's abnormality, simply assuming he was acting as usual.

Including Qing Li, the clan leader of the Azure Glazed Jade Luan Clan, who had just left, she also didn't sense any abnormality.
