Primordial Divine Emperor

Chapter 388 - 191: Divine Maiden Sect’s Unspeakable Secret, Spiritual Essence Realm Peak, Main Battle Domain_2

After a short while, Ye Xiaofan suddenly looked up. These secrets could perhaps become leverage against the Divine Maiden Sect Leader in the future. Having seen them, even if I choose not to probe further now, I’ve already incurred a deathly threat.

I can’t just run to the Divine Maiden Sect Leader and say that I did soul-search the sisters, but not your secrets. Who would believe that?

Nonetheless, looking at those incomplete memories, Ye Xiaofan’s heart was still stirred with endless emotions.

Of course, these memories weren’t directly related to him. At most, they might become crucially important in the future, whether for good or bad. The best strategy is to hold the other party in check, preventing any reckless actions, while the worst is facing unimaginable lethal suppression.

However, none of this matters anymore since the moment they acted against Ye Xiaoyue, they were already enemies.

Thinking so, Ye Xiaofan didn’t reveal the soul-searched information but instead searched for everything related to Ye Xiaoyue in the sisters’ memories.

Not long after, deep within Mu Xin and Mu Yan’s memories, he saw his sister Ye Xiaofan’s image. This was his first ’meeting’ with his sister after three years, albeit in someone else’s memory. Still, upon seeing that familiar silhouette, Ye Xiaofan couldn’t help but feel a pang of emotion.

Time passed slowly.

A quarter of an hour later.

A strand of Ye Xiaofan’s Divine Sense slowly withdrew from the sisters’ bodies, yet he stood there silently for a long time.

"Celestial Snow Divine Body?"

Ye Xiaofan murmured, his eyes filled with murderous intent. In Mu Xin and Mu Yan’s memories, he finally understood his sister Ye Xiaoyue’s current situation.

It turned out Ye Xiaoyue was born with the Celestial Snow Divine Body, which perfectly matched the Celestial Snow Technique cultivated by the Divine Maiden Sect Leader. And the old hag, nearing her twilight years, was ’nourishing the body,’ implying that she was grooming Ye Xiaoyue’s body to become her new vessel for rejuvenation once it reached a certain level of growth.

This was an evil technique, forcibly seizing another’s body to extend one’s life.

What ignited Ye Xiaofan’s murderous rage was discovering that, in order to fully activate Ye Xiaoyue’s body, the old hag was having ice worms gnaw at Ye Xiaoyue’s flesh every day. After the ice worms devoured her flesh, new flesh forcefully regenerated, thus enhancing the perfection of the Divine Body’s awakening.

This perverse method of refining the flesh was generally only used by evil cults, and the person being ’nourished’ had to endure unimaginable torment, unable to die yet living a fate worse than death.

"Divine Maiden Sect!"

"Old hag——!"

"I will fight you to the death——!!!"

BOOM——!!!

All of a sudden.

Ye Xiaofan erupted in a surge of murderous intent that shocked Mo Shiyi and Nangong Jianchen.

At this moment, Ye Xiaofan had lost all favor for the Divine Maiden Sect, especially those Supreme Elders. Those people, knowing that the sect leader took Ye Xiaoyue to ’nourish the body,’ not only didn’t oppose but even helped raise the worms for that old hag.

The reason the old hag hadn’t forcibly taken Ye Xiaoyue at the start and instead waited for years was because of the ice worms.

These spiritual worms are very selective; the first time they devour flesh and blood requires the person’s consent. Once the ice worm’s essence enters the body, subsequent worms won’t resist, mistaking that the host accepted them.

As for Ye Xiaoyue’s first insect bite, she was unsuspectingly coaxed into the Insect Breeding Cave, accepting the first ice worm’s invasion.

After all, who would suspect that a master who had always shown extreme affection would harm them, especially when they’re the Divine Maiden Sect Leader, one of the top ten Divine Sect Leaders?

That identity alone suffices to make a sheltered young girl put down all her guards.

"Ye brother...?"

Seeing Ye Xiaofan’s murderous intent soar into the clouds, Nangong Jianchen opened his mouth, unsure what to say.

In the end, it was Mo Shiyi who spoke, lightly patting Ye Xiaofan on the shoulder and sighing deeply, "Junior Brother Ye, now isn’t the time for anger and sorrow. What’s most important is to become stronger. To rescue Xiaoyue, you must grow terrifyingly powerful, powerful enough to suppress the entire Divine Maiden Sect."

"In their hearts, they’re certain you pose no major threat, which is why they dared to choose Xiaoyue. To them, killing you is an easy matter, and any minor threat can be swiftly eradicated."

Mo Shiyi’s words were indeed factual. The Divine Maiden Sect disregards this point, acting without fear.

Ultimately, a young man yet to mature is seemingly easy prey for the sect.

Simply put, the ’younger brother’ isn’t seen as capable of shaking the sect’s foundation.

If Ye Tiannan were not missing and their mother hadn’t been forced to leave, the outcome might have been different.

Given Ye Father’s talent and their mother’s status back then, even the Divine Maiden Sect would hesitate before acting against their daughter.

Listening to Mo Shiyi’s words, Ye Xiaofan gradually calmed down. Regardless, at least until Ye Xiaoyue’s ’nourishment’ is complete, she should be out of immediate danger.

However, thinking of Ye Xiaoyue’s current suffering, Ye Xiaofan felt his heart wrench with pain.
