Cultivation: I Can Reincarnate Into Various Worlds

Chapter 428 - 231、I am suitable for practicing demonic techniques_2

"Who are you?"

"How dare you attack one of Seventh Prince’s people?"

Although her Magic Power had suddenly vanished, Luo Ying quickly calmed herself. Her willow-like eyebrows rose sharply as she questioned the burly man before her.

She had weathered numerous trials and tribulations since defecting from the Flying Feather Immortal Palace to the Seven Sufferings Demon Domain, which was under the Mingquan Sect’s control. Even now, faced with this unexpected peril, her mental fortitude prevented her from panicking.

"Immortal Luo..."

"I am looking for you on behalf of the Twelfth Miss of the Demon Lord’s Mansion. As long as you help me..."

Xu Xing had no intention of reminiscing with Luo Ying, as they were hardly acquainted. Thus, he directly and candidly stated his purpose.

After speaking, he once again employed the Other Shore Ghost Spring, a divine power of fate, to lay a curse upon Luo Ying.

"No wonder Sister Cui is willing to submit to you."

Sensing the deathly aura materializing within her and how her cultivation had teetered on the brink of collapse only moments before, Luo Ying abandoned her defiance. A look of submission finally graced her features.

"As for the Twelfth Miss," Luo Ying mused, "this concubine has never had any contact with her. However, if it is merely to pass on a message, this concubine can manage it..."

"We are the Seventh Prince’s people, so it’s not appropriate for us to be too close to the Twelfth Miss," Lady Qionghai also interjected.

"No matter."

"Just passing the message will suffice."

Xu Xing nodded. "As long as this letter is delivered to Nan Lu, I do not intend to interfere with other matters."

After saying this, Xu Xing dismissed Lady Qionghai, leaving him alone with Luo Ying. "Immortal Luo, regarding the Soul Devouring Insect you previously handed to me, do you know how to deal with it?"

The Soul Devouring Insect bore the Divine Sense Brand of the Demon Lord’s Mansion, as well as a Positioning Array. Should a cultivator carrying the Soul Devouring Insect venture more than a thousand miles from Seven Sufferings Island, they would be detected and hunted down by the Demon Lord’s Mansion. And if it were discarded, cultivators from the Demon Lord’s Mansion would discover this immediately as well.

Xu Xing had originally planned to use his Magic Power to accelerate the Soul Devouring Insect’s maturation and hand it over to the Demon Lord’s Mansion before departing. But now that Luo Ying had fallen into his hands, he naturally wouldn’t be so foolish as to expend effort maturing the Soul Devouring Insect.

"The Soul Devouring Insect, this serial number..."

"You are that cultivator in the black cloak..."

When Luo Ying saw the Soul Devouring Insect revealed in Xu Xing’s palm, she froze for a moment, then exclaimed in surprise. She hadn’t expected that the burly man who had enslaved her was someone she had encountered once before.

"Senior Yan, please wait a moment."

Luo Ying regained her composure and, not daring to slight Xu Xing, hastily employed a Secret Technique to remove the Soul Devouring Insect from his person.

"Immortal Luo is not a demonic cultivator?"

Xu Xing glanced at Luo Ying’s Magic Power. Seeing that it was tranquil and lacked the violent nature typical of demonic techniques, he asked casually.

"This concubine was once a cultivator of the Flying Feather Immortal Palace, and only came to the Seven Sufferings Demon Domain later..."

"In the Flying Feather Immortal Palace, this concubine suffered constant bullying, my spouse was killed by Aristocratic Young Masters, and I too was defiled. After arriving in the Seven Sufferings Demon Domain, I caught the eye of the Seventh Prince and became his exclusive concubine..."

Luo Ying seized the opportunity, recounting her sorrowful experiences in an attempt to elicit some sympathy from Xu Xing.

"Immortal Luo says all this... could it be you mistake me for one of those gentlemen of the Righteous Path?" Xu Xing said with a half-smile.

If he hadn’t known about the conduct of the Luo Ying Two Immortals in the Flying Feather Immortal Palace, he might have actually believed Luo Ying’s one-sided account.The Luo Ying Two Immortals had received Jiang Yan of Lu Shi Pavilion’s aid, yet afterward, they had moved to seize his network of connections, revealing their far-from-virtuous nature.As for the death of Luo Ying’s spouse, there was likely another hidden story behind it.However, this had nothing to do with him.He didn’t plan to intervene more than necessary.

He was merely conversing with Luo Ying to glean more intelligence. After instructing Luo Ying, Xu Xing did not linger in the Seven Sufferings Demon Domain. Instead, he journeyed southeast, eventually reaching the Outer Sea of the Wangchuan Sea.

Upon reaching the Outer Sea of the Wangchuan Sea, he consulted his Sea Map and located a large Spirit Island: Yanmo Island.

The Wangchuan Sea’s Outer Sea was vast. Although its Resources were not as abundant as those of the Inner Sea, there were nevertheless numerous well-known large islands. Both Huge Mastiff Island and Yanmo Island belonged to this category. The only difference was that Huge Mastiff Island was closer to the Flying Feather Immortal Palace, while Yanmo Island was closer to the Mingquan Sect.

These large Spirit Islands were not under the jurisdiction of the Higher Teachings; instead, they housed various commercial Organizations.

For instance:

the Hundred Treasures Pavilion, specializing in the sale of Treasures;

the Cloud and Flower building, where traveling cultivators could rest and dine;

and the Red Dust Pavilion, where one could enjoy the pleasures of dual cultivation.

Xu Xing arrived at the Market on Yanmo Island. The familiar layout of the market and shops immediately gave him a sense of ease. He proceeded to the Cloud and Flower building, rented a Guest Room, and then settled in, making all necessary preparations while awaiting Nan Lu’s arrival.

The Seven Sufferings Demon Domain was Nan Lu’s home ground. Remaining there would be perilous for him, irrespective of the transaction’s success.Yanmo Island was a more suitable choice.

Time passed day by day.

The day Xu Xing had appointed in his letter was fast approaching.

"Xu Daoist truly trusts me," Nan Lu remarked, a mocking smile on her lips as she knocked and entered. "He even explicitly stated he was in a box at the Cloud and Flower building on Yanmo Island..."

Given her status, if she were to learn Xu Xing’s precise whereabouts, his fate would undoubtedly be grim.

"Immortal Nan, you overthink things," Xu Xing replied, his expression serene. "This is merely a light and shadow array technique arranged by Xu Mou."

"As for Xu Mou’s true location, Xu Mou naturally wouldn’t dare to reveal it so readily."

Xu Xing, his expression indifferent, lifted his arm and moved it slightly as he spoke. As he moved, his form flickered, revealing a slight misalignment of light and shadow.

Witnessing this, the triumphant expression on Nan Lu’s face froze. She snorted coldly, closed the door, and seated herself before Xu Xing.
