387: Chapter 387 The Witch of Desire's Little Thoughts

"Sect Master Dantai!"

"With your cultivation level, the benefits you've gained from this Spiritual Qi revival must be so immense that they are beyond our wildest imagination!"

"Currently, islands are emerging beyond the borders of the Dragon Country. We, the Hidden Sects, have already made secret contact. On those islands, there are more complete cultivation civilizations with no generational gaps!"

"Our Hidden Sects are all counting on Sect Master Dantai to take charge and lead us in search of those more profound cultivation methods!"

"This time, I specifically came here to have this unworthy Old Man Li step down. I want to support you, Sect Master Dantai, to command our Hidden Sects and even mobilize secular military forces to deter the Cultivators on those islands!"

It must be said that among the Hidden Sects, no one who could reach the height of the Sect Master of the Demonic Codex Sect was not a shrewd individual.

The moment he saw Dantai Qingyue, he abandoned any thought of offending her.

He switched to flattery instead.

He attempted to entice her with the allure of power.

He vainly hoped to cling to Dantai Qingyue's powerful support.

Not only could he escape the signed agreement, but he could even gain Dantai Qingyue's protection.

It was killing two birds with one stone.

The old man couldn't help but shake his head. "You old thing, your heart is truly too black."

"I might as well tell you, Qingyue is already pregnant with my grandson's child—that is, my great-grandchild."

"There's no need for your enticements. In the future, this family business of mine will also belong to the child in her womb."

Hearing this, the Hidden Sect Masters and Grand Elders who had come here all swallowed hard in terror.

First, there was the divinely gifted Azure Dragon,

And now there was Dantai Qingyue, who was carrying the offspring of Old Man Li's grandson.

Was Old Man Li planning to ascend to the heavens and stand shoulder to shoulder with the sun?

Such a terrifying force.

Even without the Deterrence of secular thermal weapons, it was enough to intimidate their Hidden Sects!

They had originally thought that by taking advantage of the Spiritual Qi revival, they could tear up the agreement and move unimpeded between the secular world and the Hidden Sects.

Who would have thought they would be suppressed even more ruthlessly!?

The Sect Master of the Demonic Codex Sect swallowed another mouthful of saliva, unable to speak.

Poof!

At that moment, Dantai Qingyue lightly raised her fair hand.

A beam of light pierced right through the Sect Master of the Demonic Codex Sect.

Visibly, the light in the Sect Master of the Demonic Codex Sect's eyes gradually faded.

His entire body toppled backward.

As he fell, his body gradually annihilated into dots of starlight.

The moment before he hit the ground, he vanished into nothingness.

Not even a speck of dust remained.

Witnessing Dantai Qingyue's terrifying strength, the Hidden Sect Masters and Grand Elders present all had dense beads of sweat breaking out on their foreheads; their clothes were already drenched in cold sweat.

Even the Azure Dragon showed a look of surprise. "So strong!"

"I had always heard that the Sect Master of Bright Moon Sect kept her true strength hidden, but I never expected her to be powerful to such a terrifying degree."

Dantai Qingyue ignored the Azure Dragon, an absolute Prodigy who was considered a heavenly talent even among the Hidden Sects.

She looked at the old man, her cold gaze sweeping over the people from the Hidden Sects as she said calmly, "Grandpa, these people were indeed lingering outside some of the bases earlier with unclear intentions. Should I take care of them for you?"

"Mercy!"

"Old Master, have mercy!"

"We've been wronged! We are truly wronged!"

"We only thought about tearing up the agreement; we never thought about a total fallout!"

"It was all that old fellow Old Demon Chen throwing dirty water around. He was scared out of his wits by the Azure Dragon and started talking nonsense!"

One by one, these highly respected experts knelt on the ground in panic.

At their level, reputation was sometimes more important than life.

But right now, there was Old Master Li who had long been dormant, the Azure Dragon who was slightly stronger than them, and the Sect Master of Bright Moon Sect who could kill them with a wave of her hand.

As for Yun Qing?

She had already been ignored.

In front of the Old Master and the others, continuing to put on airs would be seeking death.

They hurriedly apologized and admitted their mistakes:

"Old Master, please rest assured. From now on, we will never step outside the boundaries of the Hidden Sects and will never enter the secular world without permission!"

"If we do, may heavenly thunder strike us down and destroy our Sect's Legacy!"

The old man waved his hand. "Go."

He had never intended to wipe out the Hidden Sects.

Killing the chicken to warn the monkeys was enough.

Besides, the agreement forbade the Hidden Sects from entering the secular world, but it never said that secular people couldn't enter the Hidden Sects.

Their existence brought far more benefits than harms.

At the old man's level, he never looked at things from the perspective of personal preference.

Instead, he made decisions based on the pros and cons of the big picture.

As the Hidden Sects left along with the Azure Dragon,

Qin Ge leisurely returned to Kyoto.

Looking at the solemn atmosphere in the hall,

Qin Ge asked in confusion, "What happened?"

Dantai Qingyue brought him a cup of tea and explained everything in detail from the beginning.

When he learned the cause and effect of the matter, Qin Ge couldn't help but roll his eyes hard.

Are you kidding me?

As a Great Villain, is he really going to be deprived of the chance to show off and slap faces so bluntly?

He had stayed in Kyoto for several days, and it just so happened that the Sect Master of the Demonic Codex Sect came to the door right when he left.

By the time he came back, the matter was resolved?

Although this crisis never truly existed,

Because if Dantai Qingyue hadn't been here, he wouldn't have gone to the Doomsday World to consume the profound understanding pill.

But the long-awaited moment of showing off and slapping faces had just quietly slipped away from before his eyes.

Even Qin Ge was quite indignant!

"We didn't get any benefits at all!?"

"And you just let them go!?"

While Qin Ge was feeling indignant,

System reward notifications kept ringing out:

"Ding! The Desire Demoness feels resentment toward the Host. Rewarding the Host with +100,000 villain points!"

"Ding! The Desire Demoness feels anger toward the Host. Rewarding the Host with +100,000 villain points!"

"Ding! The Desire Demoness wanted to use the Host as the center and eighteen generations of ancestors as the radius to curse the Host's eighteen generations of ancestors. However, considering Old Man Li's presence, she refrained and felt very frustrated. Rewarding the Host with +150,000 villain points!"

Creak!

Yun Qing looked at the back of Qin Ge, who looked so well-matched with Dantai Qingyue, and clenched her small fists in impotent rage.

Hate!

She hated it!

She hated that this guy Qin Ge didn't leave at the right time!

If Qin Ge hadn't left early, how could the protagonist of resolving this crisis possibly be that wench Dantai Qingyue!?

Dantai Qingyue was already carrying Grandpa's great-grandchild, and Grandpa was already doting on her immensely.

And now, in the face of such a major issue of right and wrong, Dantai Qingyue had stepped forward to solve a big trouble for Grandpa.

How could this not make Grandpa dote on her even more?

Originally, in this entire courtyard house, she was the only one who could receive Grandpa's absolute favor.

Even knowing her identity as the Desire Demoness, nothing had changed.

Now, even as the Desire Demoness, she was being tormented to the point of desperation by this young couple, Dantai Qingyue and Qin Ge!

"I can't!"

"I absolutely cannot let Dantai Qingyue get any more of Grandpa's attention!"

"Dantai Qingyue has Qin Ge, core disciples, and people from the Hidden Sects who admire her."

"But This Demoness only has Grandpa!"

"I must!"

"This Demoness must do something to win back Grandpa's favor!"

Yun Qing narrowed her charming eyes, which slanted slightly upward at the corners, and stared at Qin Ge's back as her thoughts became increasingly active.
