Having been given a second chance at life, I choose to join the Demonic Sect!

Chapter 143 Three Years of Protection!

“┭┮﹏┭┮Waaah!”

Shishi hugged Cao Meng, tears streaming down her face as she cried incessantly.

Shishi was filled with regret, regretting that she was not strong enough to protect her food!
"Cao Meng, you've got some skill. You actually managed to make a living corpse shed tears for you."

Chi Liyu was somewhat surprised to see Shishi crying, because in her understanding, zombies shouldn't cry!

However, Chi Liyu was too lazy to care about all that now. She had gotten what she wanted, and she was ready to leave this place.

"break!"

"Open it for me!"

Chi Liyu forcibly connected to the bronze gate and summoned an exit using her own strength. Then she swept up Shishi and Cao Meng and left the secret realm.

……

"Crack!"

A cracking sound came from the Bronze Sword Gate, and Chi Liyu led Cao Meng and Shi Shi out of the gate.

“It’s quite lively!”

Chi Liyu glanced at the various sects and sneered.

"I'm returning your apprentice and your apprentice's lover to you!"

Chi Liyu noticed Duanmu Fei's cold gaze and directly threw Cao Meng and Shishi to Duanmu Fei.

"What did you do to that traitor?"

Seeing Shishi holding Cao Meng and falling into a coma, looking like she was on her deathbed, Consort Duanmu was instantly consumed by rage.

"It was just a little bit of his heart's blood!"

After answering Duanmu Fei, Chi Liyu turned her gaze to the various sect's Void Refinement Ancestors and shouted:
"From this day forward, if Cao Meng does not reach the Nascent Soul stage within the next three years, no cultivator above the Nascent Soul stage from any sect is allowed to attack him. Otherwise, don't blame me for slaughtering your sects and destroying your cults!"

As soon as Chi Liyu said this, the old ancestors of the various sects who were about to speak up felt the terrifying pressure emanating from Chi Liyu and immediately shut their mouths.

These stupid disciples say that Chi Liyu is at the Void Refinement stage, but this pressure is clearly beyond the Void Refinement stage!

……

Because of Chi Liyu, the Longevity Sword Sect's secret realm ended prematurely.

Before any of the sects could settle accounts, the Void Refinement stage elders ordered a hasty retreat and headed back to their respective abodes.

If we don't run, we'll be turned into corpse puppets by Chi Liyu!
On the return journey of the Hehuan Sect's flying boat, Cao Meng, who was unconscious, was resting on his bed. Shishi stayed by his bedside, watching over him.

An Yingji and Duanmu Fei, along with the Void Refinement stage ancestor Xi Feng, were also guarding Cao Meng.

"Master, we've already given Cao Meng the pills, but he's been unconscious for several days. Why hasn't he woken up yet?"

Because Cao Meng had been unconscious for several days, An Yingji was worried that he wouldn't make it through.

Not only An Yingji was worried, but even Consort Duanmu was concerned about this issue.

"If this kid had only had his heart's blood extracted, he would have woken up long ago after taking the pill."

Xi Feng, the Void Refinement stage elder, had already investigated Cao Meng's situation, and then continued:

"The key point is that when this kid was asking about the sword, he was seriously injured by that sword. His internal organs, bones, and tendons were all injured by that sword!"
Furthermore, having her heart's blood extracted by Chi Liyu only added fuel to the fire.

"Cough cough!"

Just as they were talking, Cao Meng woke up and coughed up a mouthful of foul blood.

"┭┮﹏┭┮!"

After seeing Cao Meng wake up, Shishi lay on his lap and wept:
"Cao Meng, I... will no longer... suck your blood!"

"for you!"

Shi Shi took out a string of storage rings. These dozens of storage rings were spoils she had obtained from slaughtering members of various sects in the secret realm. Cao Meng had always wanted them, but she hadn't given them to him. Now, she was taking the initiative to offer them up to curry favor with him.

Cao Meng did not take the storage ring, but instead reached out and ruffled Shi Shi's hair. Shi Shi did not resist and rested peacefully on Cao Meng's lap.

"You two are truly devoted to each other even in the dead!"

An Yingji gave a sarcastic sneer. She was originally happy that Cao Meng had woken up, but this bastard junior brother actually fed her a piece of dog food.

If this bastard junior brother pushes me too far, don't blame me for not showing any mercy and exposing his beastly behavior in front of Master Duanmu Fei.

"Traitor, you're actually willing to have your heart's blood drained for a living corpse! How generous of you!"

Consort Duanmu felt uncomfortable after being fed dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection).

This disobedient disciple has no respect for her master and elders, actually forcibly feeding her dog food (a euphemism for being promiscuous), she deserves to die!

"Forehead!"

Seeing the female demon and her sworn sister jealous, Cao Meng was immediately embarrassed, then forced himself to say:
"I, Cao Meng, have always been generous to my own people!"

Cao Meng then gave the fourth-tier mid-grade spirit sword he obtained while climbing the tower to his senior sister, Yuanzhong, and handed over the cultivation method of the low-grade Heaven-rank technique "Three Thousand Starfall" to the female demon.

After receiving the gifts, the female demon master and the vengeful senior sister finally suppressed their jealousy.

"Cough cough!"

Xi Feng coughed, feeling a bit resentful. She knew that after Cao Meng was brought back, she had done a lot to help the boy suppress his injuries.

As a result, this kid not only fed his grandmaster dog food (a Chinese slang term for being promiscuous), but he also didn't know how to respect his elders.

This kid is flirting with other women behind his disciple Xia Yulan's back. As long as I, Xifeng, am here, I will never agree to this kid and Xia Yulan getting together.

Seeing that his grand-uncle Xi Feng was somewhat dissatisfied, Cao Meng quickly addressed his female demon master:

"Master, please quickly make a copy of the cultivation method for 'Three Thousand Starfalls' and give it to Grand Uncle!"

At this moment, Cao Meng finally understood the designer of the "Seeking the Dao through Swords" ladder; indeed, giving gifts and cultivation techniques was the cheapest option.

After obtaining the cultivation method for "Three Thousand Starfalls," Xi Feng nodded in satisfaction, thinking to himself:
This kid is teachable. He's just like my rebellious disciple Xia Yulan, they're a perfect match.

Xi Feng has a different opinion regarding Cao Meng's loss of vital essence and severe damage to his health:

"Cao Meng, actually you didn't lose out. You got the protection of a Nascent Soul stage expert for three years. At least during these three years, if you don't advance to the Divine Transformation stage, no Divine Transformation or Void Refinement stage expert will dare to make a move against you!"

Now that the news of Cao Meng possessing the innate Gengjin body and the furnace physique of the Ten-Day Sacred Body has been exposed, he has become a hot commodity in the eyes of female cultivators. In addition, his astonishing talent was demonstrated when he reached the top of the Sword Inquiry and Dao Seeking Ladder.

To put it bluntly, Cao Meng's talent is too extraordinary. Some sects have already decided to kill him and can no longer tolerate him!

Xi Feng felt that with Chi Liyu, a Nascent Soul cultivator, as a deterrent, at least for the time being, the Nascent Soul and Void Refinement cultivators from those sects would not dare to attack Cao Meng.

"Grandmaster Uncle, I've suffered a huge loss!"

Cao Meng looked miserable, then explained:
"Actually, I'm hiding within the Hehuan Sect. Even the Nascent Soul and Void Refinement stage elders from other sects can't do anything to me!"

Cao Meng felt that sometimes being too gifted could be a problem, since everyone wants to be a prodigy themselves, but not others.

"That seems to make sense!"

Xi Feng felt that Cao Meng's words made some sense, but after thinking about it carefully, she was puzzled.

Demons and monsters throughout history have never been afraid of trouble; they always fight if they disagree with something.

Why is it that Cao Meng, a peerless genius, can so confidently say something like "staying in the sect"?

Is it appropriate for someone of his caliber, a peerless genius, to say such a thing?

When Consort Duanmu heard Xi Feng say that Chi Liyu was in the Integration Stage, she asked:
"Uncle-Master, are you sure that Chi Liyu is at the Integration Stage?"

Even though Duanmu Fei was the sect leader of the Hehuan Sect, she had never seen a Nascent Soul cultivator, so she seriously doubted the authenticity of Chi Liyu's claim that he was a Nascent Soul cultivator.
