Only fit to be a concubine

"Huh?"

A moment later, Ji Chan'er withdrew her palm with a look of surprise, sizing up the young man before her.

The vitality in this person's body was weak, yet there was no trace of Death Qi. His Divine Soul and Physical Body were perfectly integrated, with no obvious signs of instability... but for some reason, even though he was clearly just a weakling at the Qi Refining Realm, he was able to render her Soul Searching Technique ineffective.

Something like this had never happened before!

Looking at the stunningly beautiful woman who had descended from the sky, the young man felt terrified to death. He begged for mercy in a strained voice:

"Fairy, please spare my life! I was just passing by. If I have offended you in any way, please forgive me. I hope you can show mercy..."

No matter how much potential he had, his current cultivation was only at the Qi Refining Realm. Before a Nascent Soul Cultivator, he had no room for resistance at all.

As the saying goes, absolute strength breaks all tricks. Under the suppression of absolute power, any schemes or plots appeared pale and powerless.

He just couldn't understand what kind of grudge or enmity would cause a strange Nascent Soul Realm female Cultivator to search his Soul indiscriminately upon arrival.

If not for his Soul still retaining some characteristics of a Tribulation Passing Realm Cultivator, after a round of Soul searching, he would have suffered great damage to his Divine Soul and become an idiot, even if he didn't die.

Even more terrifying was that this woman acted so ruthlessly and heartlessly; she was clearly not someone from the Righteous Path. If she discovered his secret, his end would definitely be a hundred times more miserable than death.

Thinking of this, even though the young man's Dao Heart was as firm as iron, he couldn't help but feel a chill all over his body.

Ji Chan'er glanced at the long sword in the man's hand with interest and said with a light laugh:

"Devouring the blood and essence of enemies for your own use—this sword of yours is quite interesting. Tell me, what kind of demonic path did you crawl out from? Did you slaughter the Qi family of Wangchu City?"

The Qi family?

Hearing this, the young man was startled and quickly shook his head in denial:

"I am Qi Yuan, a Concubine-born son of the Qi family in Wangchu City. The entire Qi family are my blood relatives; how could I possibly commit such an atrocious act?"

Then, he obediently placed the ningyuan sword on the ground, his face showing a look of sincerity:

"If the Fairy likes this sword, please feel free to take it. I only ask that you spare my life!"

As a legendary Loose Cultivator, his greatest strength was his decisive character and ability to assess the situation. He naturally knew that compared to his own life, no matter how precious a treasure was, it was not worth mentioning.

Moreover, he was already connected to the ningyuan sword in heart and mind. As a Spirit Treasure with its own spirit, others wouldn't be able to exert even a fraction of its power even if they got the sword.

When he had the ability in the future, he could completely snatch the ningyuan sword back and make this woman pay a heavy price... the young man thought hatefully.

Ji Chan'er unceremoniously took the ningyuan sword into her possession and then gave a cold smile:

"You are Qi Yuan? It seems you won't shed a tear until you see the coffin. Do you really think that just because you escaped the Soul search, I can't do anything to you?"

While speaking, she tapped her jade-like finger, and a ray of pitch-black light shot out, sinking into the man's body in an instant.

In the next moment, the man only felt an unbearable pain spreading from the depths of his Soul.

"Ah..."

In an instant, a pain from the inside out, like ten thousand ants devouring his heart, made him scream out in agony, and his whole body collapsed into a pile of limp mud.

This pain lasted for only a few breaths, but the man felt as if several centuries had passed. Blood sprayed from his nose and mouth, and his face was twisted and distorted:

"Stop... quickly stop... I... I really didn't lie to you... I really am Qi... Yuan..."

"Still being stubborn?"

Ji Chan'er's beautiful face turned cold, and the dark light flowed at her fingertips, increasing the intensity of the torture. "Not talking, right? Fine, I have plenty of time to skin you alive and examine you thoroughly inside and out!"

After a while, the young man finally couldn't endure this inhumane torture and cried out:

"I'll talk... I'll talk... I'm not Qi Yuan, I killed the people of the Qi family..."

"Hmph!"

Ji Chan'er snorted coldly and casually withdrew the technique. "Tell me everything from beginning to end. If there is even half a word of deception, I will let you taste a flavor ten or a hundred times worse!"

The pain on his body receded like a tide. The man gasped for breath, his eyes filled with fear as he looked at Ji Chan'er:

"Senluo Phantom Yin Great Method! You... you are from the Demonic Sect!"

"Also, how did you know I was an impostor?"

No wonder her methods were so cruel; she was a Demoness from the Baleful Yin Sect!

However, the man still couldn't understand why this Demoness was so sure he was a fake, without even a hint of hesitation before exposing his lie.

One must know that after reconstructing his body with the flesh and blood of the Qi family's immediate relatives, this new body was already flawless. Even the previous owner's fiancée hadn't seen through his identity... "That's right, I am a True Disciple of the Yin Sha Sect."

Ji Chan'er said proudly, "Furthermore, I know the real Qi Yuan. Although he isn't anything good either, he wouldn't be as stupid as you, unable to even play a part properly."

"You didn't even understand the situation before daring to use someone else's name to swindle others. You deserve to fall into my hands."

The real Qi Yuan?

The man listened with a bewildered expression. However, he had already been terrified by the state of being better off dead just now. He didn't dare to ask more and said hesitantly:

"My name is Han Lie, and I am a Loose Cultivator. I did indeed kill everyone in the Qi family. If the Fairy shows mercy, I am willing to hand over a sliver of my Divine Soul and follow your orders from now on without any complaints."

Hearing this, Ji Chan'er curled her lips in disgust. "Keep dreaming. Do you think you're worthy of following me? If I hadn't promised that person to let him take revenge personally, I would have killed you long ago."

After saying that, she didn't bother to waste any more words. With a flick of her sleeve, she instantly sealed the man's major Acupuncture points, making him unable to move.

"Fairy, spare my life!"

Han Lie was filled with horror. He never expected that after finally managing to possess a body and return to life, he would fall so haphazardly... Just then.

Swoosh!

A cold and sharp sword light crossed the Void Realm, whistling as it slashed towards Ji Chan'er in the field, its speed beyond imagination!

"Why is Qin Lingxue here?"

Ji Chan'er's brows furrowed slightly. Then, her figure became ethereal, like a fleeting shadow, easily dodging this extremely sharp Sword Qi.

Immediately after, several more strands of Sword Intent emitting an aura of destruction attacked from all directions, locking onto her firmly.

"Heh! The False Dao is just the False Dao. Usually full of talk about benevolence and kindness, but when it comes to fighting, you always like to play these kinds of sneak attack tricks."

While speaking, Ji Chan'er gave a cold laugh. Her delicate body burst into countless eerie and flickering afterimages, avoiding all attacks in an instant.

"As expected of a Demonic Sect Demoness."

After seeing the two skeletons on the ground, Qin Lingxue's jade-like face was covered in frost. "You dare to kill a Liyuan Holy Land Disciple? Pay for it with your life!"

She flicked her slender wrist, and the mingshuang sword in her hand hummed incessantly. Countless Sword Qi carrying a cold, freezing intent poured out like a storm.

"What a muddled woman. Even if that bastard takes you into his chambers in the future, you're only fit to be a submissive little concubine before me!"

Ji Chan'er sneered. Darkness gathered around her, and a tangible darkness suddenly expanded, completely enveloping her body.

Boom!

The vast and powerful Sword Qi stirred and broke the darkness, but the spot was empty. There was no sign of Ji Chan'er... Seeing this, the murderous intent on Qin Lingxue's face grew even stronger, and she gritted her teeth, saying:

"Demoness, I will surely kill you!"

Not far away, a certain person who was still unable to move breathed a sigh of relief, a hint of ferocity flashing in his eyes:

"A True Disciple of the Baleful Yin Sect, is it? I, Han Lie, will remember you!"

...Meanwhile.

After arranging the return of his fellow Disciples, Qi Yuan did not delay and immediately set off for the Liyuan Holy Land.

His experience in the Linglong Holy Land this time was truly too stimulating for him. Although it was only for two short days, it made him feel as if a lifetime had passed.

Fortunately, the rewards were also generous enough. Not only did he obtain the Pill Formula and Materials for the creation mending heaven pill, but he also gained a huge assistant.

Besides the System, the Linglong Holy Land would be his greatest trump card!

Thinking that the high and mighty Sect Master of the Holy Land of the Linglong Holy Land had become his servant, Qi Yuan felt a sense of unreality.

And that number one beauty of the Righteous Path, the Linglong Saintess... "Fellow Daoist Qi, please wait!"

Just as his thoughts were in a mess, a familiar voice suddenly came from behind him.
