Holding the space chat group, the cannon fodder female supporting role ascended

Chapter 723 The Third Way
Xuanyuan Wei glanced at Yun Xi and recognized her as one of the cultivators who led the entire realm to ascension. Moreover, she seemed to be the leader of the team. In less than a hundred years, she had already advanced to the mid-stage of the Integration Realm. Truly, the younger generation is formidable.

He thought his newly accepted disciple, Xun Kun, was already cultivating fast enough, but he didn't expect there to be someone even faster, so he said with a smile:

"Xun Kun, is this an old friend of yours from the Weiyu Realm?"

"Yes, Master. This is my good friend Ranxi, a junior of Haoran Zhenzun."

Yunxi also obediently stepped forward and bowed:

"Junior Ranxi greets the True Venerable."

"Tsk tsk, I never expected that old geezer Haoran would have such an outstanding junior like you."

Xuanyuan Wei's voice was as loud as a bell, and all the cultivators around him heard it, some of whom had already begun to chuckle.

Yunxi's lips twitched as she said:

“Senior, my ancestor has fully recovered from his injuries and is no longer a decrepit old man.”

"Really? Then it must be thanks to you!"

Xuanyuan Wei actually knew some inside information; he had said that on purpose just now.

"Our ancestor was just lucky."

Yunxi would never take credit for herself.

Just as the two were exchanging veiled words, Han Yang flashed to Xun Kun's side, first bowing to Xuan Yuanwei, before saying:

"Xun Kun, you should go and check on him! Your little disciple is about to give up."

Upon hearing this, Xun Kun immediately looked at Xuan Yuanwei.

Xuanyuan Wei knew about Xunkun's acceptance of a disciple, but he hadn't expected such a major twist. His young grand-disciple hadn't even entered the sect yet and was already being targeted by evil cultivators. Therefore, he said in a deep voice:
"You go and take a look first. Leave this heretical cultivator to me."

"Yes, Master (True Venerable)!"

The three agreed in unison and then slipped into the half-destroyed Pisces City.

As Yunxi passed by the evil cultivator who had been smashed to the ground, she waved her sleeve and stored the Frostbite Needle and Purple Smoke into her dantian. With the Great Ascension True Venerable present, she figured the other party wouldn't be able to resist.

Xuanyuan Wei chuckled and came to the evil cultivator's side. This time, he directly pulled the other's nascent soul out of his body and then began to roughly search his soul.

Han Yang led the two into the half-collapsed city lord's mansion and headed straight for the dungeon.

The moment they entered the dungeon, Yunxi and Xunkun smelled a strong stench of blood, mixed with a sinister and resentful aura. Then they saw Liao Ziqian floating above a pool of blood.

The malevolent and poisonous energy within the blood pool was slowly seeping into his body. Liao Ziqian was in great discomfort, his brows furrowed, and he occasionally groaned, but he was unable to regain consciousness.

Han Yang said with a very ugly expression:

"Those two guys killed all the cultivators in the city lord's mansion, drained their blood and put it into this pool, and then used evil magic to pollute the blood pool. Then they put Liao Ziqian into it, trying to use the blood cleansing method to defile his foundation and meridians."

When I arrived, he had already sunk into the blood pool. I could only pull him out, but I couldn't sever the connection between him and the pool. He must have been entangled in an evil formation. I dared not act rashly, fearing I would destroy the little guy's foundation, so I hurriedly went to find you.”

Han Yang finished explaining his findings in one breath and then looked at Yun Xi and Xun Kun.

Without saying a word, Yunxi sent Ziyan into the blood pool. Since they couldn't break the bond, they would deal with the blood pool first.

The moment Ziyan fell into the blood pool, it was like adding fuel to the fire. Purple flames instantly covered the entire blood pool, and all three heard a series of shrill cries and screams, but they could not stop the blood in the pool from dropping.

Just as Ziyan was burning towards Liao Ziqian along with that wisp of blood energy, she was summoned back to her dantian by Yunxi. If Ziyan were to touch Liao Ziqian, he would only face certain death; he was currently a mortal without cultivation. Xunkun waved his sleeve, pulling Liao Ziqian to his side, then flicked a wisp of magic energy into Liao Ziqian's body, before withdrawing it a moment later. He then said to Yunxi with difficulty:
“His meridians and dantian have been corrupted by evil energy. Only his spiritual root is undamaged, but he cannot hold on for long in his current condition.”

"Since the evil cultivators are going all in, they certainly won't let us solve the problem easily."

Han Yang, who was standing to the side, also spoke up:

"There are only two solutions now: either let the little guy practice evil arts, or kill him outright, otherwise there will be endless troubles."

Xun Kun shook his head and said:

“He is the master’s disciple, how could he possibly practice evil arts? Even if we eliminate him, it’s only a temporary solution. There will be a second Liao Ziqian in the future.”

Yun Xi also nodded and said:

"Then let's choose the third path."

"The third one?"

Han Yang and Xun Kun said in unison.

Yunxi said seriously:
"Yes, the third option, but this path is not easy. It is up to Liao Ziqian to decide. Neither you nor I have the right to decide his future."

Han Yang's affectionate eyes were filled with surprise. He raised an eyebrow and said:

“I had the little ice cicada wake him up.”

"it is good."

Han Yang flicked a ball of spiritual energy into Liao Ziqian's body. A moment later, a burst of white light appeared on Liao Ziqian's body. After the light disappeared, Liao Ziqian's eyes began to move. Three breaths later, he opened his eyes.

Upon seeing the familiar face, he forced a smile and said:
"Master."

Xun Kun responded and helped Liao Ziqian sit up, unsure of what to say.

Knowing that time was limited, Yunxi first told Liao Ziqian about what he had experienced after being arrested and his current situation.

Liao Ziqian's eyes reddened, and he asked stubbornly:
"Your Excellency, am I no longer allowed to cultivate? If I do, I will become a heretical cultivator, so Master must..."

He couldn't bring himself to say the rest.

Yun Xi sighed and said:

"Ziqian, there's a reason why your master accepted you as a disciple. This matter dates back more than a hundred years, to your master and me."

After hearing about his connection with his master, Liao Ziqian finally understood why his master had traveled so far to that small place to take him as a disciple. So he gritted his teeth and said:
“I did nothing wrong, and Master’s decision was not wrong either. If I am destined to become the shell of a great villain, it would be better to kill me now, at least it will not implicate the sect.”

Yunxi sighed again, feeling as if she had sighed out all the pent-up frustration of the past hundred years, but she still said:

"Now there is a third path for you to choose from, but this path is not easy. Although you can cultivate and grow smoothly, you may still not be able to escape the fate of becoming the body of an evil god."

However, you can choose to trap part of the evil god's body within yourself, sealing him away forever, and then continue cultivating, ascending to the immortal realm to find an immortal who can completely solve your problem.

However, during this process, you may be controlled by the body of the evil god, assimilated by him, and completely lose yourself. You may also perish under a tribulation of lightning because of the evil god's body within you. You may even be hunted down by righteous cultivators. Many cultivators are willing to eliminate you in order to stabilize their Dao heart.

"The first problem you'll face is being burned by the strange fire. I will use this strange fire to burn away the evil energy within you, allowing you to cultivate righteous techniques. However, this process will cause you unbearable pain, and you may even die. What do you want us to do?"

　See you tomorrow, my darlings~ Goodnight~
