Junior Sister is too competitive, she drastically alters the Joyful Union Sect.

Chapter 258 Hey, everyone's here?
three days later.

All the relatives and friends gathered at the oasis.

The remaining ten disciples were not separated from their group, and they arrived at the oasis without any major incidents.

When they learned that Shen Youqing and Jiang Chenying had gone to infiltrate the demonic cultivators, their minds went completely blank.

Have those two lost their minds?!
"Hey, everyone's here?" A sinister voice suddenly rang out.

The group, who were about to discuss going to the rescue, all turned around and saw Shen Youqing standing on the sand dune, her beautiful and charming brows furrowed with a cold and murderous aura.

and many more!

What's going on with Shen Youqing being six months pregnant?!
Seeing the shocked and bewildered looks on his disciples' faces, Shen Youqing raised his hand and patted them on the shoulder.

The three hostages were pushed forward by several demonic cultivators.

Qi Bumian, who had already discussed the plan, acted accordingly. He pointed at Shen Youqing and shouted angrily, "Witch! Release my senior brother!"

"Release those three and I'll spare your lives!" Xie Changyan said, drawing his longsword and pointing it at the group of demonic cultivators.

Qu Lian glanced at Shen Youqing.

Shen Youqing's delicate brows furrowed immediately, her tone turning unfriendly, "You want me to help you catch people?"

Having spent the last few days with Shiliu, Qu Lian had a deep understanding of her unpredictable temper. Seeing her like this, he could only say, "I'll trouble Madam Shiliu to keep an eye on these hostages."

Shen Youqing slightly raised his chin, his arrogant demeanor signifying his agreement.

Qu Lian led a group of demonic cultivators forward, while Shen Youqing glanced sideways at Jiang Chenying.

Upon receiving the signal, Jiang Chenying easily broke free of the chains, then drew her sword and severed the spirit-binding chains binding Jiang Zhi and Gu Xingluan.

Jiang Chenying's sudden attack caught several demonic cultivators off guard.

By the time they realized what was happening, Jiang Chenying's longsword was already slashing at their faces.

Without the suppression of the Spirit Binding Lock, Jiang Zhi broke the chains binding him and drew his sword to kill.

Gu Xingluan threw the magical artifacts in her hand as if they were free.

As the three men rioted, Qu Lian and his group were immediately surrounded.

"Pomegranate!"

Qu Lian looked at Shen Youqing with a bloodshot, venomous gaze, the words squeezed out between her teeth as if she wanted to tear her to pieces.

Shen Youqing seemed to only just realize what was happening. She pretended to dodge Jiang Chenying's attack, her face contorted in a grimace, and muttered, "These cunning disciples!"

Jiang Zhi and Gu Xingluan knew that the two of them were putting on an act; their target was the demonic cultivators.

Seeing that Shen Youqing was also attacked, Qu Lian didn't know what the problem was for the time being, but the important thing at the moment was to capture this group of personal disciples. If he couldn't capture them, he would kill them all!
"I told you to act at night, but you didn't listen. Nannan is a ghost baby; her strength will be greatly reduced during the day," Shen Youqing scolded Qu Lian while awkwardly dodging.

Fearing that Jiang Chenying might actually hurt Shen Youqing, Xiao Ke drew his sword and weaved through the crowd, slashing down several demonic cultivators along the way.

Seeing this, Jiang Chenying turned around and went to kill the demonic cultivator.

Faced with Shen Youqing's rebuke, Qu Lian didn't know what to say. He unleashed a move to repel several disciples who were attacking him, and then turned his head to see Shen Youqing being held hostage by one of the disciples, who was choking him.

This waste!

The man standing behind Shen Youqing placed his five fingers like claws on her neck.

At first glance, it looks like a fierce chokehold, but in reality, there's not a shred of force.

Qu Lian instantly abandoned Shen Youqing and then began to fight these disciples with great force.

Shen Youqing tilted her head slightly, just as Xiao Ke looked down at her.

Shen Youqing's pale face was reflected in her peach blossom eyes, and the heartache and worry in her eyes were almost undisguised.

The intoxicating fragrance of camellias filled the air, and Xiao Ke's anxiety, which had been hanging in suspense for several days, finally subsided.

Withdrawing his gaze, Shen Youqing formed a hand seal with both hands.

A cyan light array lit up, instantly reviving the disciples who were struggling in the fight!

Their spiritual and physical strength instantly returned to their peak, and the disciples continued to fight with their weapons.

A healer?!

How can there be a therapist?!

With a healer present, the disciples were like they'd been injected with adrenaline, constantly at their peak. The demonic cultivators, however, were different.

As time passed, more and more demonic cultivators lay on the ground.

Jiang Zhi and Gu Xingluan not only killed demonic cultivators, but they also casually gouged out their eyeballs.

It's not that they're cruel, it's just that they're disgusted by what they've been through.

Finally, Jiang Chenying and Liang Shimu attacked from both sides and captured Qu Lian alive.

A fierce battle has temporarily come to an end.

By this time, the setting sun was almost at its zenith.

Knowing that demonic cultivators were cunning, Wei Ningguang used three or five spirit-binding locks to tie Qu Lian up, which was practically a complete straitjacket.

Lin Youran took out a bottle of pills and handed it over, saying, "Give her some more pills."

Yang Yousheng took the porcelain bottle, walked over, dislocated Qu Lian's jaw, and poured the entire bottle of pills into it.

"..." Lin Youran's lips twitched slightly.

There's no need to waste so much.

Lin Jinyao had already run towards Shen Youqing.

"Junior Sister, are you feeling unwell anywhere?" Lin Jinyao reached out to pull Shen Youqing over to check, but Xiao Ke had already wrapped his arms around her waist and dodged to the side.

Xiao Ke said to Lin Youran, "Third Senior Sister, the antidote."

Lin Youran walked over, poured out a pill, and handed it to her.

After Shen Youqing took the pill, she said, "It will take some time for my stomach to shrink."

Shen Youqing nodded, and then walked towards Qu Lian.

The other disciples found a clean place to sit down and prepare to rest.

Seeing that his junior sister seemed to have something to ask, Yang Yousheng pressed Qu Lian's chin back down and then stood beside her in a protective posture.

"Are you a therapist?"

Qu Lian understood everything. Looking at the ghostly woman, his frustration and anger were mixed with a subtle emotion.

It's not that he's stupid, it's just that his protégé acted too convincingly.

Besides, who would believe that the Five Sects would raise ghost infants through direct lineage?

"How did you get in?" Shen Youqing asked instead of answering.

These past few days she's been trying to probe him openly and subtly, but Qu Lian seems to have his mouth sewn shut, not revealing a single word.

Qu Lian chuckled sinisterly, "You took a fake pregnancy pill? Fake pregnancy pills can damage your body!"

Lin Youran crossed her arms over her chest.

Who do you look down on?
She's not that good at alchemy, but she's amazing at making strange and unusual pills!
If the fake pregnancy pills were harmful to her junior sister's body, why would she give them to her?

Shen Youqing stepped forward and stomped on Qu Lian's face, his tone cold and sharp, "You only have two choices now: hand over the things yourself, or I'll force you to hand them over."

"What can you do?" Qu Lian looked at Shen Youqing with disdain and threatened, "Don't fall into my hands, or I'll make you wish you were dead!"

Shen Youqing curled her crimson lips slightly.

……

"So ruthless?" Jing Liang sat by the fire, her gaze towards Shen Youqing revealing a complex expression.

However, he would not sympathize with a demonic cultivator; he was only worried about Shen Youqing's reputation, since this place was full of image-recording stones.

"Is it ruthless?" Jiang Zhi asked coldly as he sat to the side wiping his longsword.

Seeing Jing Liang's gaze, Jiang Zhi spoke up, "If it weren't for Junior Sister Qing lurking among them, do you know what Fellow Daoist Gu and I would have gone through?"

If it weren't for Junior Sister Qing arriving just in time, she and Gu Xingluan wouldn't have dared to imagine what they would have faced in the days to come.

Because of Junior Sister Qing, the demonic cultivators had their attention diverted, so they weren't too upset these past few days.

Jing Liang looked at the two good-looking people and immediately understood.
