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

Chapter 23 Experience Baby - The Comatose An Yingji!
Cao Meng noticed that Xia Yulan didn't make any move, as if she didn't understand social etiquette at all!
So, he grabbed Xia Yulan's delicate hand and cried out:

"Uncle Xia, I may not have two or three years left to live. I will miss you!"

I gave Xia Yulan a recipe for a fifth-grade spiritual dish, so I have to ask her about the actual benefits.

However, being too direct is not good; you have to be more tactful.

Xia Yulan understood the meaning behind Cao Meng's words and asked:

"What about your challenge to Liu Ruyan, Su Qingyue's prized disciple, three years later?"

Xia Yulan had also heard about this matter, as it had already spread throughout the sect.

"Ok!"

Cao Meng nodded; he was now just waiting for Xia Yulan to bring him the things.

"I don't know what Senior Sister Duanmu was thinking, making you, a Foundation Establishment Stage 1 cultivator, challenge a Golden Core cultivator three years from now!"

Xia Yulan felt that this three-year agreement was completely unreasonable.

Although she wasn't very clear about the situation of the Xuantian Sect, she had heard that Su Qingyue's disciple, Liu Ruyan, was the most beautiful girl in the Xuantian Sect.

The publicly disclosed cultivation level of Liu Ruyan appears to be at the second level of the Golden Core stage!

Xia Yulan estimated that Liu Ruyan's true cultivation level was at least the fourth level of the Golden Core stage.

She felt that the gap between Cao Meng and Liu Ruyan was too great, and three years was simply not enough time for Cao Meng to grow.

Cao Meng dismissed this with disdain, saying that although Liu Ruyan was somewhat similar to the template of a chosen one, he himself was someone who had cheated!
The chosen one is no match for a cheater!
Xia Yulan comforted Cao Meng, saying:
"Nephew, once your master has finished researching this fifth-grade spiritual dish, your master will give you a good boost to help you increase your cultivation."

Cao Meng had encouraged her before, so naturally she wanted to encourage Cao Meng now.

Give yourself a good boost!
Help yourself increase your cultivation level!
These two keywords combined, plus the fact that this place is the Hehuan Sect, make a difference.

Cao Meng couldn't help but wonder what method Xia Yulan had used to help him improve his cultivation.
Uncle Xia is being far too generous!

She was willing to sacrifice herself to not help herself.

Xia Yulan noticed that Cao Meng's eyes were off, and she immediately knew that he had misunderstood.

She reached out and flicked Cao Meng on the forehead, scolding him:

"What nonsense are you thinking? I meant I'd get you some spiritual food to nourish you!"

Xia Yulan took some items from her storage ring and handed them to Cao Meng, saying:
"Here are 30,000 low-grade spirit stones as compensation for letting you taste the dishes this time!"
This fourth-tier low-grade attack talisman possesses the power of a full-force strike from a second-level Nascent Soul cultivator; it might just save your life in a critical moment!
In addition, I'm also giving you this top-grade local-level cultivation technique, "Sound Killing Sword Art." Study it carefully!

After receiving the items, Cao Meng quickly thanked Xia Yulan:
"Thank you very much, Uncle Xia!"

Cao Meng thought Xia Yulan was a good person, generous and magnanimous, and that they should communicate more in the future.

Especially this fourth-grade low-level talisman; with this, I can do many things in the future.

At this moment, a mischievous smile flashed across Xia Yulan's stunningly beautiful face, and she softly asked Cao Meng:

"Cao Meng, I'll give you another treasure that can rapidly increase your cultivation level. Do you want it?"

Xia Yulan felt that although the treasure was not hers, it was now in her hands, so she could give it to Cao Meng.

Upon hearing that there were more good things, Cao Meng quickly asked:
"Uncle Xia, where are you?"

Although I have a cheat code that allows me to spend money to upgrade my cultivation, it consumes spirit stones!

Therefore, it's a good thing to increase one's cultivation level, so why not take it?

With a mischievous grin, Xia Yulan stretched out her delicate hand and pointed at the unconscious An Yingji.

"she!"

"My senior sister?"

Cao Meng was stunned; he didn't immediately understand what Xia Yulan meant.

Seeing that Cao Meng didn't react, Xia Yulan explained:
“Nephew Cao Meng, Yingji is at the sixth level of the Golden Core stage. If you were to consume her essence, your cultivation would surely advance by leaps and bounds!” The treasure that Xia Yulan spoke of for increasing cultivation was none other than the unconscious An Yingji.

Cao Meng quickly shook his head, refusing:

"Uncle-Master, my senior sister will fight me to the death after she wakes up."

"Besides, if my master finds out, she'll kill me too!"

Cao Meng felt that Xia Yulan was a bad woman who had given him dirty tricks.

In his previous life, he intercepted and killed An Yingji once, and was subsequently hunted down by her nearly a hundred times.

If I were to take advantage of someone's vulnerability and steal their essence, that person would likely be relentlessly pursuing and killing me.

If it were just An Yingji, it would be fine, but what if Consort Duanmu also wanted to deal with me?
It's not worth sacrificing all the senior sisters and uncles of the Hehuan Sect for one An Yingji!

Moreover, they might be hunted down by Duanmu Fei, a female demon in the Nascent Soul stage. What a huge loss!

I, Cao, absolutely cannot do this kind of unprofitable business!

Just as Cao Meng was settling accounts, Xia Yulan threw the unconscious An Yingji into his arms and then said:

"Cao Meng, I've already told you the method, and I'm handing Yingji over to you as well!"

Xia Yulan has basically forced out all the poison from An Yingji's body.

The remaining bit of poison would probably only make An Yingji suffer for a while, which could be considered her punishment as her senior uncle!

It's all because An Yingji doesn't trust her martial uncle. She made a huge fuss over letting me try a dish. She deserves to be punished!
Looking at the unconscious An Yingji in his arms, Cao Meng had no thoughts whatsoever.

It's because when An Yingji vomited earlier, her clothes were also stained with some vomit, and it smelled bad!

“Nephew Cao Meng, now that Yingji is unconscious, you have the opportunity to replenish your essence from her.”

If she regains consciousness, it means she's going to drain your essence; you'd better hurry!

"By the way, Yingji is a virgin, so remember to be gentle and considerate towards her!"

After Xia Yulan finished speaking, she gestured to Cao Meng that he could carry the person away.

After bowing to Xia Yulan, Cao Meng scooped up the unconscious An Yingji in his arms and quickly fled the scene!
After Cao Meng left, Xia Yulan smiled and said:

"Greedy for money, lustful but cowardly, what an interesting little fellow!"

Although Xia Yulan and Cao Meng hadn't known each other for long, she had a general idea of ​​his personality.

It was precisely because Cao Meng wasn't a bad person that Xia Yulan dared to hand over the unconscious An Yingji to him.

After all, if An Yingji really got into trouble and her cultivation was drained, she wouldn't know how to explain it to Consort Duanmu.

"Speaking of which, this little guy's yang energy is far beyond that of ordinary people, he must have a special constitution!"

When Xia Yulan was helping Cao Meng detoxify, she noticed that Cao Meng's constitution was unusual, but she couldn't be sure what kind of constitution Cao Meng had.

The only thing she was certain of was that Cao Meng had an excessive amount of yang energy, which was not something one should have at the first level of Foundation Establishment.

Fortunately, Consort Duanmu left a mark on Cao Meng's body to conceal his physique; otherwise, his identity as a furnace cauldron saint would have been exposed.

After Cao Meng carried An Yingji back to Suqin Peak, he put away his flying sword.

Cao Meng looked at An Yingji, who was as still as a dead fish, and cursed:

"An Yingji, you dog of a woman, you tried to trick me, but I'm fine."

But you've become like a dead fish, and I still have to hold you!

Cao Meng felt fortunate to be alive, otherwise he would definitely have ended up like An Yingji, a pair of dead fish, fellow disciples.

Fortunately, An Yingji couldn't hear Cao Meng's complaints, otherwise she would definitely have scolded him:
Cao Meng, if you had eaten more of that Stargazing, I could have eaten less, and I wouldn't have been poisoned like this!
