“Bang—”
Cao Dian’s soulless body smashed into the ground of the central square with a deafening sound, causing a large spiderweb crack to appear on the ground.
“The Sect Master won!!!”
When they saw that the person who died on the ground was Cao Dian, all the Heaven Earth Sect Cultivators in the square cheered excitedly.
In contrast, the Xuanhuang Sect Cultivators had despair on their faces.
When Xiao Qingyue and the other upper echelons of the Heaven Earth Sect caught sight of this scene before them, they felt as though they were dreaming.
Cao Dian was already dead, and the remaining Xuanhuang Sect Cultivators were just small fries. Soon, they were all suppressed by the Cultivators of the Heaven Earth Sect. What awaited them was death and judgment.
After the battle between the two sects ended, Chen An did not choose to stay any longer.
He used ‘Through the Looking Glass’, causing all the Cultivators in the central plaza to fall into a temporary illusion. Then, he changed back to his appearance and brought Shen Qingyi to the ‘Stable’ cave abode on his sword.
Xiao Qingyue was not under the illusion. Seeing that Chen An had changed back to his original appearance and left with his wife, she also changed back to her original appearance at the same time.
Not long after, she heard Chen An’s voice transmission in her mind.
“I’ll give you three days to deal with the aftermath of the war between the two sects. Three days later, I’ll personally come to your cave abode to look for you. I hope you’ll be ready by then.”
Logically speaking, he should have been given at least a month to deal with it.
This was because the war between the two sects was not a small matter. There were too many things to deal with after the war. It was not something that could be done overnight.
However, Chen An could not wait that long.
In at most three days, he would eat Xiao Qingyue up.
If not for the fact that the Heaven Earth Sect was really too chaotic after the battle and needed to deal with the aftermath urgently, he would have wanted to possess Xiao Qingyue on the same day.
To be able to give her three days to deal with it was already quite humane.
After all, a man in heat was no different from a ferocious beast.
In the ‘Stable’ cave abode.
After Chen An returned home, he simply told his wives about the battle situation. After saying that, he went to his room to count the gains he had obtained from Cao Dian.
There were only two gains. One was the Soul Nurturing Banner, and the other was the storage ring.
He was more interested in the Soul Nurturing Banner and was filled with curiosity.
He sized it up a few times.
It was a little like a small flag.
The color was pure black.
It looked very sinister.
After sizing it up for a while, an item notification popped up in front of him.
[Soul Nurturing Banner: This is a rare spiritual treasure. It can absorb the soul of living beings and refine them into soul puppets for its own use.]
“It’s actually a spiritual treasure?!”
Chen An was a little surprised and could not stop smiling.
As expected, experts in the Soul Formation Realm were rich.
This time, the two sects had profited greatly.
At this moment, wisps of black smoke suddenly appeared from the Soul Nurturing Banner.
Chen An was shocked and subconsciously threw the Soul Nurturing Banner out.
The Soul Nurturing Banner was thrown to the ground. The black smoke that emerged from it quickly condensed, turning into the figure of a woman with a graceful figure.
The woman only had an outline and no facial features, but she could still see Chen An in front of her. She said in a sinister voice, “How dare you kill the puppets from the Yin Domain in the Great Thousand Domain. How dare…”
“… Swoosh!”
Before the woman could finish speaking, Chen An raised his hand and slashed with his sword, instantly killing her.
He did not dare to let this woman stay in the room for too long, afraid that she would locate him and find him.
Then, he immediately released his spiritual qi and crazily scrubbed the Soul Nurturing Banner on the ground, removing any aura on it to prevent the other party from finding him.
After all, even Cao Dian, who was in the Soul Formation Realm, was just a puppet in this woman’s eyes. This woman’s cultivation must be extremely high, and she knew many tricks. He had to be careful.
[Yin Ji has developed hatred towards you. Current Hatred Points: 5 stars.]
That woman was called Yin Ji?
Curse her!
Chen An was very vengeful. As soon as he learned the woman’s name from the notification, he immediately took out the Book of Curses and started cursing.
Previously, the hint information regarding the Book of Curses had mentioned that using the Book of Curses to curse a target would not be traced back to the source. He could take revenge on the other party without worry.
Yin Domain.
In a cave abode filled with Yin qi.
A woman in a long black dress with a naturally gloomy face was sitting cross-legged on a pitch-black stone coffin with her eyes closed. She was remotely controlling a wisp of her soul.
Suddenly, a trace of bright red blood flowed out of the corner of her mouth, and her slender phoenix brows furrowed slightly.
Her wisp of soul had been destroyed, causing her main soul to be injured.
Fortunately, the damage was not big. Basically, she would recover completely in half a month.
“What kind of sword is that?”
“It can actually easily destroy the wisp of my soul that I split out?”
“How can there be such a sword in such a low-level place?”
The woman’s face was filled with surprise.
Soon, she closed her eyes again and used a secret technique to locate the Soul Raising Banner. She planned to find Chen An and kill him. She would return to the Soul Raising Banner and take away the Yin-Yang Sword that Chen An had used to destroy her soul.
In just a moment, she opened her eyes and said regretfully, “This person is quite cautious. He instantly erased the mark 1 left on the Soul Nurturing Banner.”
After saying that, the corners of her mouth curled up. “But it doesn’t matter.
After a while, I’ll personally go to the Great Thousand Region and find you even if I have to dig three feet into the ground.”
Cao Dian was in the Great Thousand Domain. She thought that Chen An would also be in the Great Thousand Domain.
She did not know that Cao Dian had brought more than half of the Cultivators of the Xuanhuang Sect to attack the Heaven Earth Sect recently.
This was because she had allowed Cao Dian to be her puppet and had never paid attention to him.
“Ahhh!”
Suddenly, the woman gasped in pain and frowned again.
Just now, her slightly damaged soul’s injuries inexplicably worsened.
It was as if the wound that had just been caused had suddenly torn open. The pain was very obvious.
“The Book of Curses?”
“What’s the situation?”
“It’s just a mere Book of Curses. How can it hurt me?”
The woman’s face was filled with disbelief.
Yin artifacts like the Book of Curses were everywhere in Yin Domain. There were several of them in her storage ring alone.
Magic artifacts could only be used on Nascent Soul realm Cultivators at most. In front of Cultivators above the Soul Formation realm, they were like scrap metal.
However!
The woman whose cultivation had reached the refined Void Refinement Stage had just been successfully cursed by the Book of Curses.
Although the damage was not great, she was indeed cursed.
The woman was puzzled.
After calming down, she hurriedly used a secret technique to trace the source of the curse.
However, what shocked her next was that the source of the curse could not be traced!
“What’s going on?”
“What the hell is going on?”
The woman’s face was filled with doubt.
Mountain Sea Region.
Heaven Earth Sect.
In the three days after the war between the two sects ended,
As the Sect Master of the Heaven Earth Sect, Xiao Qingyue could not be idle for a single second.
On the first day.
Xiao Qingyue was instructing everyone to clean up the battlefield and count their gains.
The greatest gain was that she had gathered the two tokens, Heaven and Earth and Xuanhuang. She could open the treasures of the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Sect that had yet to split back then.
With this treasure, the losses in this war between the two sects would be worth it. It could even be said to be a huge profit.
The next day.
Xiao Qingyue began to deal with the captured Xuanhuang Sect Cultivators.
Those who should be killed were killed, and those who should be incorporated were incorporated.
Most of them were thrown into the dungeon of the Law Enforcement Hall and locked up. They would be dealt with after interrogation.
On the third day.
Xiao Qingyue drove the sect’s flying ship and brought the remaining few higher-ups of the sect to the Great Thousand Domain to take over the Xuanhuang Sect. She took all the Cultivators and treasures inside for herself and prepared in advance for the next two sect mergers.
During these three days, the Great Elder, who was a deserter, returned.
After he returned, he was still the Great Elder from before. It was just that his status in the sect was now far inferior to that of Xiao Qingyue’s..
