47: Chapter 47 Yang Weile's Abilities
"I am Ji Aotian!"
"I came to the Qingyun Sect today to visit an old friend, but I never expected to encounter a Devil Head, so I dealt with it while I was at it."
Ji Taichang stood with his hands behind his back, looking up at the sky at a forty-five-degree angle. His silhouette was profound and imposing, his aura ethereal and majestic!
"Now that the Devil Head has been eliminated and your Qingyun Sect Sect Master is dead, let her take the position of Sect Master."
Ji Taichang pointed at Lin Xueyue and added, "Yang Yao shall assume the position of Grand Elder of the Qingyun Sect. You must follow their arrangements and fully assist them in managing the Sect. Do you have any objections?"
Ji Taichang's words sent a shock through Zhang San and the others!
Such a powerful expert... was actually an old friend of Lin Xueyue?
Zhang San, Li Si, and the others, who had originally coveted the positions of Sect Master and Grand Elder, could not help but abandon this thought.
It was not just because they could not afford to offend such a powerful expert.
It was also because the two strongest members of the Qingyun Sect had fallen one after another, causing the Sect's strength to plummet. The Qingyun Sect needed this powerful expert, Ji Taichang, to back them up!
"Yes!"
"We will obey the Senior's arrangements!"
"Greetings, Sect Master!"
Zhang San and the others looked respectful and hurriedly bowed to Ji Taichang and Lin Xueyue!
"Ah? Me?"
Lin Xueyue was stunned for a moment, her mature and beautiful face filled with trepidation and unease. "I only have the cultivation of the Golden Core Stage First Level. How can I serve as Sect Master? Why not let…"
"If I say you can be the Sect Master, then you can!"
Ji Taichang interrupted Lin Xueyue, patted her shoulder, and his voice softened a little. "Rest assured, with me backing you up, you can come to me if you encounter any trouble you cannot resolve."
"Remember, I will always be behind you, supporting you!"
Lin Xueyue's heart trembled, and a warm current surged within her!
Since she married into the Qingyun Sect, this was the first time someone had cared for her and supported her like this!
[Ding! Detected Lin Xueyue's favorability increased by 5 points]
[Lin Xueyue's favorability: 65 (When favorability reaches 100, a surprise will occur!)]
Ji Taichang encouraged Lin Xueyue with a few words.
Then, with his hands behind his back and stepping on Sword Qi, he left the Qingyun Sect in a very dashing manner.
When he arrived in a secluded area, Ji Taichang rubbed his chin and fell into deep thought.
"When Yang Weile died, he was only at the Golden Core Stage Ninth Level, not even the Peak of the Golden Core Stage Ninth Level. Even if I claimed all his cultivation, I probably wouldn't be able to achieve a Breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Stage. The increase in strength wouldn't be that significant; it's a bit of a loss."
"I'd better claim his abilities instead!"
As Ji Taichang made his decision, the System prompt sounded.
[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for obtaining 60% of Yang Weile's abilities!]
Boom—
A blood-red power surged within Ji Taichang's Dantian, causing his eyes to glow with blood-red light, and his aura became cold and evil!
"This is... the Blood Transformation Demonic Art!?"
Ji Taichang sensed it carefully, and his eyes widened in surprise!
This Demonic Technique was extremely powerful and domineering, containing two terrifying abilities.
The first was Bloodthirst, which could devour the blood and cultivation of Cultivators to strengthen oneself!
The second was Blood Burst, which could burn all the blood in the body, entering a berserk state that caused one's combat power to skyrocket several times over!
"This is a good thing!"
"I'll skip devouring the blood and cultivation of Cultivators. I don't want to fall into the demonic path and become like Yang Weile, neither human nor ghost."
"However, this berserk state is very useful. If I encounter an enemy I can't defeat, activating the berserk state might just allow me to win!"
Ji Taichang licked his lips, feeling somewhat excited.
...
Meanwhile.
Yang Yao had originally been resting in the Alchemy room, unaware of what had happened outside. She had been confusedly welcomed as Grand Elder by Zhang San and the others, and then she learned of the massive changes that had just occurred.
Overnight.
Her brother had fallen into the demonic path, killed her father, and was finally killed by a mysterious expert. This left her feeling mentally dazed.
Although Yang Buqiu had favored sons over daughters since she was young, lacking care and concern for her, and Yang Weile had become heartless after Cultivating the Demonic Technique—hardly even speaking to her—she lacked familial affection.
But…
They were still the last two relatives she had in this world.
Was she sad?
A little, but not much.
Yang Yao only felt a tightness in her chest, sitting alone in the room, her eyes dazed and helpless.
"Sister Yang Yao, what's wrong?"
A burly and tall figure appeared and gently pulled her into his embrace.
"Xiao Chang, my father and my brother are dead…"
Yang Yao hugged Ji Taichang, tears glistening in the corners of her eyes, as if she had suddenly found someone to rely on, pouring out her distress and helplessness to him.
Listening to Yang Yao's pouring out, Ji Taichang's expression was a bit strange.
After all, Yang Weile was killed by his own hands.
However, this could not be blamed on him; everything was brought upon by Yang Weile himself!
Ji Taichang patted Yang Yao's back, comforting her softly.
...
More than an hour later, Yang Yao, with a flushed face, lay on the bed to rest.
Ji Taichang left Yang Yao's boudoir and found Lin Xueyue.
At this moment, Lin Xueyue had become the Sect Master. Not only did she have to handle various Sect affairs, but she also had to organize the funerals for Yang Buqiu and Yang Weile, and she looked somewhat exhausted.
"Xiao Chang…"
Upon seeing Ji Taichang appear, Lin Xueyue perked up, her eyes filled with a strange expression as she stared straight at him.
Looking at Lin Xueyue's haggard and delicate appearance, Ji Taichang really wanted to pull her into his arms and comfort her properly.
However, there were too many eyes around now, so Ji Taichang suppressed the impulse in his heart.
He quietly transmitted his voice to Lin Xueyue, "Mistress, I have some business to attend to at the Lanzhou Princes Mansion, so I will leave the Sect in your care."
Lin Xueyue opened her mouth, "When... will you be back?"
Ji Taichang calculated and replied, "If it goes quickly, I can return within a day."
With his current powerful cultivation of the Golden Core Stage Ninth Level, it would only take a few hours to travel to the Lanzhou Princes Mansion.
"Mm... take care, I will wait for your return."
Lin Xueyue pursed her lips and urged him softly.
Although she knew that Ji Taichang was already a great expert at the Golden Core Stage Ninth Level, she still subconsciously treated him like a junior.
"Rest assured, Mistress."
Ji Taichang smiled. Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, Ji Taichang reached out and patted Lin Xueyue on her backside; it was very soft and elastic.
So smooth!
A flush of red immediately appeared on Lin Xueyue's beautiful face. She bit her lip slightly and glared at Ji Taichang with a hint of resentment.
[Ding! Detected Lin Xueyue's favorability increased by 1 point]
[Lin Xueyue's favorability: 66 (When favorability reaches 100, a surprise will occur!)]
The System prompt sounded in Ji Taichang's ear, making his eyes light up!
Sensing Ji Taichang's wolf-like gaze, Lin Xueyue's little heart began to pound. Fearing that Ji Taichang might lose control in front of everyone, she quickly turned and ran away, her pretty face becoming even redder.
Watching Lin Xueyue's slightly flustered yet graceful silhouette, the corners of Ji Taichang's mouth curled up slightly.
With Yang Weile forcefully killed by Ji Taichang, Lin Xueyue had clearly been initially conquered by him. She had accepted him in her heart and did not reject intimate contact with him!
In this way, raising Lin Xueyue's favorability to 100 was not a difficult task!
