After the mind-reading cripple junior sister, the entire sect rose to prominence.

Chapter 126 I’m coming
"Indeed, you are very fortunate to have witnessed the brilliance of the Black God Spirit Fire."

The fake maid then revealed a genuine smile. She spoke while looking at the spirit fire, which was clearly ominous and eerie, yet her gaze was both ardent and affectionate. "This kind of spirit fire is one of a kind in the world."

"Is this what you call good fortune? If you worship it so much, why don't you sacrifice yourself?" the long-faced female cultivator said angrily.

Mo Jiuwei had never really liked this long-faced female cultivator, but at this moment she wanted to applaud her.

[Well said, haha, that's so satisfying!]

"How dare you!" He Fei shouted angrily at the long-faced female cultivator, "How dare you offend my patriarch!"

"Patriarch? Patriarch of the Yue family?" The long-faced female cultivator was stunned. "How is this possible..."

"This is impossible!" a male cultivator suddenly exclaimed. "The Yue family's 'Medical Heart and Skilled Hands' may not be considered healers, but they are still renowned. How could they possibly do such a thing! Who exactly are you people?!"

The Yue family has stood strong in Shihan City for many years, and many people in the city and nearby cities have heard of their reputation. The Yue family's name has always been quite good.

But what are they doing now? They're harming innocent cultivators, all to obtain this spiritual fire!

"That's right, where is the old master of the Yue family? He is the head of the family. Who are you?"

"Hmph, the old master is muddle-headed and inflexible. Since he won't take my advice, I have no choice but to take his place," the maid, or rather, Yue Qi, said coldly.

Everyone gasped in shock.

"You actually..."

"Alright," Yue Qi said impatiently. "My family's affairs are none of your business. You know what you need to know, so you don't need to play dumb anymore. He Fei, go ahead."

"Yes, Master."

He Fei clasped his hands in a fist salute, then drew his sword and placed it against the long-faced female cultivator's neck. "You, go!"

The long-faced female cultivator's face turned deathly pale. She shook her head frantically, "No, I won't go..."

If there was any sliver of hope that I might be the one destined to receive the spiritual fire, that hope is now gone.

She has no hope; it's all part of these people's plan!
As for myself, I will only become fertilizer for the spirit fire, ultimately benefiting the Yue family!
"It's not up to you!"

He Fei sneered and, without saying a word, pushed the female cultivator onto the stage.

The long-faced female cultivator screamed and tried to escape, but she was poisoned by the Nether Orchid Fragrance and had no power to fight back. She was pushed onto the stage like a little chick.

Then the same scene repeated itself. The female cultivator seemed to be choked, her voice stopped abruptly, and then the fire on her body reignited, and she disappeared from the stage in an instant.

The remaining people all looked grim. Some, unable to resist, collapsed to the ground in grief and indignation and began to cry. Some tried to draw their swords for a final counterattack, while others looked around, trying to find a way to escape.

After the long-faced female cultivator died, He Fei's gaze swept around before settling on the red-clad female cultivator.

This was the same person Yue Qi had praised as "a rare find among the intelligent ones." He Fei felt that this person might be in danger, so it was better to get rid of him sooner rather than later.

[Hmph, how arrogant!]

Did they really think their scheme would succeed?

No, I'll do it!

"me!"

Mo Jiuwei acted immediately upon thinking of it, struggling to get down from Chen Lan's arms, "I'll come!"

Hurry up, let me do it!

Chen Lan was stunned for a moment, then she was so scared that her soul almost flew out of her body.

"What are you doing, my ancestors? Don't move!"

She grabbed Mo Jiuwei and pulled her back as she was about to climb down, saying, "It's too dangerous, you can't go!"

Mo Jiuwei's sudden shout successfully stalled He Fei and the red-clad female cultivator, and everyone present looked over in surprise.

Yue Qi's expression was strange. He chuckled and said, "What a stupid child, actually trying to throw his life away?"

I've never seen anyone willing to die to grab something like that!

Yue Chao also found it strange. Although Mo Jiuwei was a child, she was quite quiet the whole way, neither crying nor making a fuss, and only knew how to eat.

She's been quite well-behaved since she arrived today, not crying or screaming at all, but I didn't expect her to be so eager at a time like this. Could it be that she thinks the spirit fire on the stage is something delicious, which is why she volunteered to go over there?

You're the stupid one! Your whole family is stupid!

[To die? How could I do such a thing?]

Mo Jiuwei rolled her eyes, then struggled to get down, "I want to go, Lan, let me go."

Chen Lan couldn't help but look at Liu Feng, her face full of embarrassment.

Sending Mo Jiuwei to face the spiritual fire is dangerous just to think about, so it's absolutely out of the question.

However, she has always unconditionally trusted Mo Jiuwei, and over the years Mo Jiuwei has proven with her actions that she has such convincing abilities and has never made a mistake.

So today... should we listen to her, or not?
Chen Lan was unsure and could only wait and see what her Uncle Liu thought.

Liu Feng's heart skipped a beat, and he looked at Mo Jiuwei, "Jiuwei, are you serious? You want to face the Spirit Fire?"

Yes, only I can wield the spirit fire!

【I got it, so the Yue family is out of luck!】

Mo Jiuwei's eyes were bright, and she met Liu Feng's gaze without flinching.

Liu Feng had long known that beneath this weak exterior lay a far from weak soul, but he had never felt it so profoundly at this moment.

In that moment of eye contact, he seemed to be confronting a powerful figure; where was the child in sight?

Liu Feng clenched his fist, then relaxed it; his palms were sweaty.

Should we send Jiuwei on this dangerous mission? What if something happens...?

"Let her go."

Liu Feng suddenly spoke up.

Chen Lan opened her eyes wide.

"Uncle-Master..." Du Yue and the others exclaimed in alarm, looking at Liu Feng, "How can this be? That's too dangerous!"

“I believe her,” Liu Feng said.

Mo Jiuwei saw through the Yue family's conspiracy long ago, so she must have her reasons for doing this now.

If I make the wrong bet, I will fight to the death to avenge her!
Tears welled up in Chen Lan's eyes, and her hands trembled.

“Jiuwei…”

Her voice was choked with sobs, but she still hugged Mo Jiuwei and walked step by step toward the edge of the stage.

"You all get up first," Yue Qi said to He Fei.

He Fei responded and then led the red-clad female cultivator to the side.

Chen Lan placed Mo Jiuwei on the stage, and Mo Jiuwei took a step to go up, but Chen Lan grabbed her hand.

"Jiuwei, do you really have to go?" Chen Lan asked softly.

Mo Jiuwei nodded without hesitation, "Don't worry, I can do it!"

Chen Lan smiled, but tears fell from her eyes. "Okay, I'll wait for you here."

"Ok!"

Mo Jiuwei nodded, and then took small steps, gradually approaching the stage.

"Has this kid gone mad?"

"I think these adults have gone mad; they actually sent her there."

"I guess they figured they were going to die sooner or later anyway, so it didn't matter who took their place."

"These people are despicable; they don't even spare children!"

The other cultivators couldn't bear to watch any longer.
