The Journey of Immortal Cultivation

Chapter 1113 - 607: Changtian Returns

He had always thought that, in this game of clever strategy, in the face-off with Changtian, he was the victorious side.

Ning Xiaoxian couldn’t help but smile bitterly. This was truly an overt plot, even though she knew Yin Jiu You was here, even though she knew a Heavenly Net had been set here, yet the attraction of the Nanming Lihuo Sword exceeded everything, and she had to willingly jump into it. From the Bai Yujing auction to now, she thought she had been in control everywhere, but little did she know there was always someone beside her watching her every move, scheming in the dark.

She understood now, he wanted her and Changtian to savor the taste of failure when victory was near, when happiness was within reach, and then push them back into the abyss of despair.

An extraordinary person has extraordinary qualities; Yin Jiu You’s extraordinary quality must be an extremely distorted mindset, right?

Outside the barrier, a person suddenly stood up, rigidly saying: "Remove the barrier! No matter who you are, I have something to ask her."

Naturally, this person was Jin Wuhuan.

Yin Jiu You turned to look at him, frowned, and actually removed the barrier to let him in.

Jin Wuhuan also knew time was precious, and ignored "Steward Wu," only staring at Ning Xiaoxian, saying: "Since you can’t escape death, why not do a good deed before dying, and tell me who harmed Jin Manyi, and how did she die!"

Ning Xiaoxian turned her eyes towards him; Jin Wuhuan immediately tensed up.

She looked at him for a while before shifting her gaze back to Yin Jiu You, then smiled meaningfully.

Jin Wuhuan was slightly startled, his expression quickly turned ferocious. Was she accusing the man in front of her as the culprit behind the daughter’s tragic death?

The change in the atmosphere behind him was naturally known to Yin Jiu You. He sneered gloomily: "So old and still being used as a pawn by a girl on the verge of death? — who do you think told you about Ning Xiaoxian and Miluo’s relationship, and the box number?"

So it was him, not Juan Niang!

Both Jin Wuhuan and Ning Xiaoxian suddenly realized.

Before Jin Wuhuan could speak again, Yin Jiu You had already set the barrier back around them. His barrier was quite peculiar; once a cultivator tries to break through, their spiritual power would be siphoned. Jin Wuhuan tried twice but couldn’t break through, losing quite a bit of spiritual power, so he dared not try again.

He was stunned for a moment but then convinced himself: the murderer of Jin Manyi must include Miluo!

Ning Xiaoxian refused to confess him until death. And the reason a woman would protect someone so devotedly can only be one.

She must have loved that person to the depths of her soul, extremely!

Within the barrier, Yin Jiu You looked at Ning Xiaoxian and said: "Actually, I’ve never really understood. Years ago, who actually stole the God Demon Prison from my hands? Changtian, could you enlighten me? In exchange... hmm, I may let this little pet die swiftly before you. Otherwise, I will extract her divine soul, refine it into a human puppet, then torture her daily, letting you listen to her screams every night as you fall asleep; wouldn’t you enjoy that? Haha, you’ve even given her the Tusk; looks like you quite fancy her."

His gaze swept lightly across Ning Xiaoxian’s face, then he elegantly coughed gently and said: "There’s not much time left, I can wait, but she cannot. She can only live, at most, hmm, let me calculate... fifty seconds?"

He laughed heartily. But just as his voice fell, he saw a mocking smile rising at Ning Xiaoxian’s mouth, contrasting against the pink blood, with an indescribable sense of sarcasm.

She whispered a few words.

Yin Jiu You leaned his head closer to her and said: "Louder, I didn’t catch that."

"I said..." she coughed up several mouthfuls of blood before weakly saying, "All your charming gestures in recent days... were... were for the blind to see."

"Oh? I’d like to hear more." He raised his eyebrows with interest, showing not a trace of anger.

She laughed hoarsely a few times: "You think you’ve beaten him? Haha, Changtian, Changtian... he’s not at home at all."

Yin Jiu You’s smile froze unconsciously. Not at home, what does this mean?

She widened her eyes as if to savor his expression at this moment: "Don’t understand? You think you, with your intelligence, are fit to be his opponent? At this moment, he is not... not in the God Demon Prison."

Yin Jiu You finally stopped smiling. His gaze wandered for a moment before he fixedly stared at her, saying in a deep voice: "He’s already out? Where is he!" This woman is too frail right now, afraid that a touch would kill her, otherwise he would certainly make her take back those words.

If Changtian has indeed escaped from the God Demon Prison, with his proud nature, seeing his little pet tortured by Yin Jiu You in various ways, how could it be that there’s still no reaction until now? Step back and say, without the Nanming Lihuo Sword, how could he have managed to escape?
