Chapter 945 - I Became a Villainess and Was Pestered by Beautiful Girls
Five against three. Yu Ling Zi, the sect master, was unlike the seven elders, including Ling Hua. Her arrival in the Hell Realm indicated she had prepared in advance. In the past, a sect master from Xuan Ling Sect would naturally not be able to mobilize such tremendous energy. However, since surviving the three-nine heavenly tribulations, Yu Ling Zi had become quite famous not just in Qingzhou, but across the entire cultivation world of Jiuzhou. Perhaps this validated her previous notion that to reign over the destinies of the younger generation, she had to break through to the Tribulation Crossing stage. Otherwise, in face of situations like this, she would probably have no choice but to stay in the sect, crying her eyes out... "Demonic Sonic Attack!" Confronted by five Tribulation Crossing cultivators capable of wielding the power of supreme commands, Vice Palace Lord Mo Yin lost her previous composure and immediately resorted to her strongest attack. Her attack targeted the soul directly and was extremely effective against enemies of lower realms. In such large-scale battles, the abilities of the Fifth Vice Palace Lord were even more useful than those of higher-ranking vice palace lords. "Thunderous Orthodox Law!" An elder from Wen Tian Sect roared, and the Hell Realm resonated with booming thunderclaps that shook the spirits, causing cultivators on both sides to involuntarily shiver. The thunderclaps completely drowned out Vice Palace Lord Mo Yin's sonic attack, rendering it ineffective. "What?" Mo Yin's complexion turned even uglier. Was this a Tribulation Crossing expert who also specialized in sonic cultivation? "Hmph," Yu Ling Zi folded her arms and said, "Our Jiuzhou continent is full of talents. Finding someone to counter you is not difficult." Being the foremost sect in Yongzhou and the entire Jiuzhou cultivation world, Wen Tian Sect had the most Tribulation Crossing experts, hence they could send the most targeted individuals. Mo Yin had demonstrated her strength in the Northern Three States, thus finding a counter strategy was feasible. "The Sect Master is truly wise! Unrivaled under the heavens!" The two Xuan Ling Sect cultivators waved their flags and cheered. "Leave this to us," Yu Ling Zi glanced back at them and said, "Quickly take them to a safe place!" When Tribulation Crossing experts fought, it could destroy heavens and earth. In the Hell Realm, they wouldn’t have the same reservations as on the Jiuzhou continent, and who knew how much collateral damage might ensue. Ling Hua and Tang Xin didn’t dare linger and fled the battlefield as if their lives depended on it. On the ground and in the skies, cultivators from the Jiuzhou continent were locked in fierce combat with the members of the Blood Sovereign Hall. Seeing Tang Xin holding Fei Yao and Ling Hua carrying Nan Xi, all Blood Sovereign Hall cultivators, as if receiving a deadly command, abandoned their current opponents and swarmed towards them. Compared to the offensive against the realm of cultivation, securing Vice Palace Lord Fei Yao was apparently the more pressing matter. "Don't even think about it! For the reward of Yu Ling Zi! I'm not into little girls... I just think Yu Ling Zi is very charming!" One after another, cultivators, whether they had encountered her before or not, familiar or strangers, rushed over to carve a path for them to the outer regions of the Hell Realm. Tang Xin, holding Fei Yao, sped through the dim space, but a different scene emerged in her mind. It was of a "Senior Sister" who hadn’t followed the righteous path, leading an army, annihilating every living being seen along the way. Men and women, old and young, one after another, like moths to a flame, came at her wanting to take her life... Instead of protecting her like now. For some reason, this moved Tang Xin. "Tang Xin, are you sure you won't exchange? Look at the girl in my hands, isn’t she plump? Huge... breasts and twin tails, with an almost sickly pale complexion. Isn’t this exactly your type?" Ling Hua continued nagging beside her. Without this path, there wouldn’t be so many people coming to their aid, nor would there be people like Ling Hua by her side. With the joint efforts of these cultivators, the two women successfully escaped the Blood Sovereign Hall's encirclement, reaching the outside. Bai Zhang Men from Tian Yan Sect had been waiting there for a long time. "I lack the inheritance of the power of supreme commands, so I won’t join the battle," Bai Zhang Men said, "Yu Ling Zi asked me to meet you here and safely escort you back to Jiuzhou." Bai Zhang Men was adept at transformation and formation, capable of hiding their tracks to prevent pursuit and constructing teleportation arrays to hasten their journey. Entrusting them with escort duty couldn't be safer. 【Guide Assistant Iv3: My task is completed.... However, if the host is interested, I can work overtime.】 "Overtime?" Tang Xin was startled, "You’re willing to work overtime?" 【Guide Assistant Iv3: There’s a critical experiment related to the host in the Hell Realm. Gathering information on it could be beneficial in the future. The interior of the Hell Realm is currently highly chaotic and dangerous. It's up to the host to decide whether to return or not.】 The crucial experiment... must refer to the "Third Phase Experiment Plan" mentioned earlier. With the Blood Sovereign Hall already having created a terrifying creature capable of mimicking almost all of Senior Sister’s abilities in the second phase, it was impossible to guess what the third phase might bring. You are a fragment meant to awaken the Master. The words of the Blood Master echoed in Senior Sister’s mind. After a moment of consideration, Tang Xin handed Fei Yao over to Bai Zhang Men. "Please take her and Nan Xi to a safe place." "What are you planning to do?" Bai Zhang Men asked, puzzled. "I'm going back to the Hell Realm," Senior Sister said solemnly, "there are things still unclear." "Are you crazy? Going back now?" Ling Hua cursed, "If you're really looking to die, let’s make it warm first!" Tang Xin didn't argue. After handing over the person, she silently turned around to leave. "Wait, you’re really going? Are you trying to kill me? Alright, alright, I'll go with you." Elder Hua, despite cursing, followed Tang Xin after handing off the person. "No," Tang Xin frowned, "I'll go alone." After battling with Fei Yao, Ling Hua was severely depleted, and her strength might not even surpass Tang Xin's. Besides, if real danger arose, having Ling Hua or not wouldn’t make much difference. "You..." Ling Hua’s expression changed, she wanted to say something more, but Tang Xin decisively vanished without giving her a chance to speak. Returning the same way, Tang Xin once again stood on the land of the Hell Realm. 【Guide Assistant Iv3: Searching... Important locations and high-rank enemy positions are marked.】 In the distance, the sky was littered with explosions' aftermaths, with Tribulation Crossing experts fiercely battling on both sides. Elsewhere, an inconspicuous Blood Sovereign Hall squad was quietly moving an "item". To avoid attracting the attention of Jiuzhou cultivators, this squad didn't even include any experts above the middle stage of Union Path. They carefully loaded a well-bound chest, about a meter in radius, into a spirit boat equipped with invisibility features, intending to stealthily leave unnoticed. 【Guide Assistant Iv3: Target confirmed, the spirit boat contains an undetectable item.】 Tang Xin's gaze turned cold, she picked up her divine artifact, and with a swoop, smashed it down. Bang!
