Xian Ni: The God of Killing Returns, Marries Li Muwan at the Beginning

The middle-aged man loosened his grip on the immortal sword slightly, a hint of apprehension flashing in his eyes.

He had witnessed the purple-eyed python's submission, and the white-haired man in the blood-red robe before him was definitely not someone a Pure Nirvana Realm cultivator could contend with.

Suppressing his fear, he softened his tone and said, "Since Fellow Daoist Lin has come to improve his cultivation, it is not impossible to discuss this."

"However, our Guiyuan Sect has a rule that the Sect Master must make the decision regarding the arrival of distinguished guests. Please wait here for a moment, fellow Daoist, so that I may inform the Sect Master, Lü Yanfei, immediately."

After saying that, the middle-aged man gave a wink to the two disciples behind him, signaling them to be on guard. Then, he lightly touched the ground with his toes and transformed into a streak of light, flying towards the main peak deep within the Guiyuan Sect.

Lin Che stood still, his gaze sweeping over the disciples below who were trembling with fear and the purple-eyed python that still bowed its head. His fingertips casually traced the fabric of his sleeve as he said indifferently:
"It's alright, I have plenty of time. Just a reminder to your sect leader, don't keep me waiting too long."

As soon as he finished speaking, a faint aura of the Celestial Realm emanated from his body. Although the aura was faint, it caused the spiritual energy of the entire Guiyuan Sect to become somewhat stagnant.

The purple-eyed python trembled, lowered its head even further, and even its breathing became much lighter.

.........

Guiyuan Sect, in a quiet room.

At this moment, Lü Yanfei, dressed in a red dress with her hair loose, sat there calmly, her face slightly pale, with an indelible sadness still lingering in her eyes.

This made her exude beauty while also possessing a touch of vulnerability.

However, even her three fellow disciples were not qualified to appreciate her charming appearance, because their cultivation level was one level lower than Lü Yanfei's.

Lu Yanfei, who had reached the Great Perfection of the late stage of Nirvana, was considered the most beautiful woman in the Guiyuan Sect. Her reputation was renowned throughout the fifth-order star domain, and many people had designs on her.

Many others have avoided direct conflict over the years simply because of their master's perfect Nirvana cultivation.

However, his master's current state of decline has put the entire Guiyuan Sect at its weakest point.

Right now, Lu Yanfei is holding a jade slip in her hand. The jade slip is entirely purple and is being squeezed tightly in her hand, so much so that her jade-like hand is turning slightly white.

Humiliation was evident in her eyes, but she could only endure it. She even had the urge to crush the jade slip, but the thought of the consequences only intensified her humiliation.

She took a deep breath, forced herself to stay alert, and said softly to the three female disciples who stood respectfully before her with worried expressions, "Let them in."

Lu Yanfei only accepted three disciples in her lifetime, all of whom were women. Her second disciple, Xu Yun, was the most accomplished, having already reached the Yin Deficiency Realm.

Although Xu Yun was not as beautiful as her teacher, she was still very pretty and had a gentle personality.

Before long, four pale-faced teenagers walked in one after another. The four teenagers were trembling, and after entering the room, they dared not breathe, and lowered their heads, looking somewhat helpless.

Looking at the pale-faced youths, a barely perceptible hint of helplessness flashed in Lü Yanfei's eyes. She said softly, "Eldest brother, third brother, each of you should take two of them into your fold. These four youths have rather ordinary aptitudes."

"Whether they can become companion spirits depends on their fate in a month. If they are not recognized by the Purple-Eyed Python left by their master, they will be sent home."

The two female disciples respectfully agreed, and led the four boys away, each going their own way.

The room fell silent again. Lü Yanfei placed the purple jade slip in her hand on the table, her fingertips tracing the patterns on the edge of the slip, the humiliation still churning in her heart.

This jade slip was sent by the Zidao Sect yesterday. It stated that if the Guiyuan Sect was willing to send her to the Zidao Sect's young sect leader position, they would step in to protect the Guiyuan Sect through this period of weakness; otherwise... Lu Yanfei closed her eyes, her master's instructions before returning to the Void appearing in her mind, and her master's voice seemed to still echo in her ears.

"Yanfei, protecting Guiyuan Sect is more important than anything else."

But must one sacrifice their entire life to protect the sect?
Just then, hurried footsteps came from outside the door, followed by the voice of the middle-aged man from before, which sounded somewhat anxious.

"Sect Master! A cultivator in blood-red robes with white hair has arrived outside the sect. He calls himself Lin Che, and his strength is unfathomable. Even the fifth-tier purple-eyed python guarding the sect bows to him!"

Lu Yanfei suddenly opened her eyes, a hint of surprise flashing in them.

The fifth-tier purple-eyed python has recognized Guiyuan Sect as its master, and has never shown any subservience to anyone other than its master and her.

She suppressed the turmoil in her heart, stood up, straightened her red dress, and her voice returned to its usual calm: "I understand, come with me to take a look."

After saying that, Lü Yanfei stepped out of the room, and the aura of the late-stage Nirvana Realm Great Perfection quietly spread around her. Although it was not as intimidating as the Celestial Realm, it was enough to make the accompanying disciples feel more at ease.

Lu Yanfei knew very well that the Guiyuan Sect could not withstand any turmoil at the moment, and it was still unknown whether Lin Che's sudden visit would bring good or bad fortune.

.........

Outside the Guiyuan Sect, Lü Yanfei looked at Lin Che, who was only at the mid-stage of the Pure Nirvana Realm, her face devoid of any emotion.

I thought it was some powerful figure who had arrived, but now it seems he's just an ordinary Nirvana cultivator.

Lü Yanfei pursed her immature lips, looked at Lin Che, and nodded, saying, "Fellow Daoist, I am Lü Yanfei, the acting sect leader of Guiyuan Sect. May I ask what brings you to my Guiyuan Sect?"

Lin Che, with one hand behind his back, replied, "I came to Guiyuan Sect to improve my cultivation. Fellow Daoist, you wouldn't turn me away, would you?"

Lu Yanfei smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist's cultivation is at the mid-stage of Pure Nirvana, which is much higher than mine, so naturally I will not drive you away."

"However... I'd like to know where you're from, fellow Daoist?"

Currently, Guiyuan Sect and Zidao Sect are at war. If the other party is from Zidao Sect, it is naturally impossible to let him join Guiyuan Sect.

Lin Che said, "I come from the Cultivation Alliance Star Region, not the Cloud Sea Star Region."

"Cultivation Alliance?"

Upon hearing this, Lü Yanfei was taken aback for a moment, but quickly recovered and replied with a smile, "Since you are not a cultivator from my Cloud Sea Star Region, I naturally welcome you to join us."

Lu Yanfei looked at the cultivator beside her and said calmly, "I will find an auspicious place for you to cultivate, senior. All your needs will be met."

The cultivator beside him nodded hurriedly, cupped his hands in a gesture of respect, and said, "Senior, please follow me."

Lin Che and Lü Yanfei looked at each other, and then disappeared into thin air, leaving the other person stunned in place.

Lu Yanfei murmured to herself, "Although this person's cultivation is only at the mid-stage of the Pure Nirvana Realm, why do I have such a strange feeling about him? Could it be... that this is the person my master spoke of before he passed away?"

"No... Master said this person has already reached the Celestial Realm, and is not a mid-stage Pure Nirvana cultivator at all. He must still be somewhere else." (End of Chapter)
