God-Slaying Blade

Half an hour later.

After eating the spiritual porridge and regaining their strength, the women expressed their heartfelt gratitude to everyone before heading back in the direction from which Qin Jue and the others had come.

About fifty miles behind is a town.

Half of these women possessed cultivation, and one of them even had a ninth-grade cultivation level.

There shouldn't be any danger if you're traveling normally.

Qin Jue and the others did not delay any longer and sped up their journey towards the location of the Cloud Mountain Secret Realm.

After a stick of incense had burned, the two groups of people who had gone their separate ways were already quite far apart.

In the group of women, the woman with a ninth-grade cultivation level suddenly stopped in her tracks.

"Sisters, I have something to say!" the ninth-rank woman said in a deep voice.

"What's wrong, Sister Wang?" The women stared blankly at Wang Xianzhi.

Wang Xianzhi pursed her lips, which had regained some color, and said in a deep voice, "Sisters, can we really go back? We were kidnapped by bandits and violated by demonic cultivators. Even if we go back, can we live like normal people?"

"Waaah..."

Many women, upon being asked this question, felt their eyes well up with tears and quickly raised their hands to cover their mouths, which were about to burst into tears.

Yes, can they ever go back?

Once I go back, will I be able to live like a normal person?

Those who had even given birth to Nie Hengtian's children were especially unsure how to face the future.

"Sister Wang... what do you mean by that? We finally escaped their clutches, don't we even have the right to continue living?" A woman whose heart had been broken gritted her teeth and choked out.

She had been trying hard not to think about these issues, but Wang Xianzhi brought them up at this crucial moment.

These problems are like knives, cutting into my heart.

Wang Xianzhi said in a deep voice, "Of course we have the right to live! Moreover, we have survived with great difficulty, and from now on, we must not only live, but also make our lives as better as possible!"

The women's eyes widened in surprise.

But how easy is that?

Wang Xianzhi took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Going back will be difficult, but we have similar experiences, and we can definitely stick together and start a new life! If you are willing, you can choose to come with me, find a desolate mountain, and we can settle down together! We can not only clear the land and grow food to be self-sufficient, but I can also teach you martial arts techniques so that you can have a certain level of strength!"

Many women were tempted upon hearing this.

"But, but where do we go to start over?" a woman asked.

Wang Xianzhi said, "Let's go to the vicinity of Fengzhou City! The area around Fengzhou City is relatively safer. As long as we don't provoke any powerful forces, survival won't be a problem."

"Fengzhou City? It seems that there are people from the city lord's mansion among my benefactor's group."

"I vaguely heard that my benefactor was also from Fengzhou City!"

"Our benefactor is a truly kind person; let's settle down near Fengzhou City!"

"Sister Wang, we'll go with you!"

"Our village was massacred by thugs like Boss Liu a long time ago. I have no family left when I go back. Sister Wang, I'll go with you!"

"Sister Wang, from now on you're our big sister! Wherever you go, we'll go!"

"Sister Wang...I...I want to go home."

"I also want to go back and check... just in case, just in case, the situation isn't so bad?"

Wang Xianzhi said, "I respect your choices, but I don't have time for you to hesitate. Those who are willing to come with me, follow me to Fengzhou City now. Those who have other ideas, go ahead and do as you please."

After Wang Xianzhi finished speaking, she turned around and strode away.

Nearly two hundred women quickly followed.

Only a dozen or so women remained, standing there, their red lips pursed, tears welling in their eyes.

Hopefully, their cherished family members won't extinguish the last glimmer of hope that keeps them alive...

……

The next day.

Qin Jue and his group finally arrived at Qifeng Valley, the outer edge of the Yunshan Secret Realm.

People from other factions had already arrived a day or two ago.

"Haha, young friend Qin, you've arrived just in time! The gate to this secret realm will open in a little over an hour." Zhu Baishi laughed heartily upon seeing Qin Jue and the others arrive, and together with another white-robed elder, they came to greet them.

Qin Jue smiled faintly and said, "As long as we can make it in time."

As he spoke, Qin Jue glanced at the other people.

He mainly wanted to see the people from the Lingshan Sect.

Su Youmou met Qin Jue's gaze, his heart tightened, and he forced a dry smile, bowing respectfully from afar.

Sima Xiang smiled and said, "Everyone, please rest for a while. This old man and the young city lord will go and check the number of people who entered the secret realm."

Qin Jue's eyes flickered slightly as he reminded him, "Mr. Sima, the Ling Shan Sect only has three Grandmasters left at most. But they seem to have quite a lot of people over there. We should double-check."

Sima Xiang was taken aback and said, "Doesn't the Lingshan Sect still have five Grandmasters? Supreme Elder Leng Yuqiu, Sect Master Leng Xuanting, and three other Grandmaster elders..."

Qin Jue's lips curled up: "It seems Mr. Sima is unaware that Leng Xuanting was expelled from the Lingshan Sect long ago. Furthermore, Cao Yifeng, the Third Elder of the Lingshan Sect, died two months ago."

Sima Xiang was surprised: "Cao Yifeng is dead? How does Young Master Qin know about this? Are you sure?"

Huang Gang rolled his eyes and said, "Mr. Sima, is there even a question? My elder brother said Cao Yifeng is dead, so Cao Yifeng must have died at my elder brother's hands."

Qin Jue nodded and said, "That's true."

"Alright, I understand." Sima Xiang chuckled and went with Ling Heng to check the number of people in each sect.

Twenty feet away, Feng Wuji, his face cold and angry, snorted, "Miss Chen, did you see that? That person is Qin Jue, the great scourge of Fengzhou. He is wicked and ruthless. Once you enter the secret realm, you must stay far away from him."

Chen Guo'er's eyes flashed, and she smiled faintly, "Thank you for the reminder, Second Master Feng, but I have no grudge against him, so he shouldn't make things difficult for me, right?"

Feng Wuji hurriedly said, "That's hard to say. The secret realm is isolated from the world. Who can guarantee that he won't have any bad intentions? In short, it's best to avoid him."

"Yuanxi, Yaoran, Baizhi, you must remember this well: you must protect Miss Chen!"

"Second Brother, don't worry. Guo'er is a distinguished guest of our Feng family. How could I let her suffer even the slightest harm?" A beautiful woman beside Feng Wuji said with a light laugh.

This beautiful woman was none other than Feng Chihua's youngest daughter, Feng Yuanxi.

Although she and Feng Wuji are siblings, she is the same age as Chen Guo'er, so she can naturally enter the Cloud Mountain Secret Realm.

"Haha, with you keeping an eye on things, Second Brother can rest assured," Feng Wuji grinned.

Chen Guo'er completely ignored the loud and boisterous brother and sister, and instead secretly glanced at Qin Jue.

Seeing Qin Jue surrounded by beautiful women, she couldn't help but feel secretly annoyed.

"How come this guy has so many women around him, and they're all so beautiful? No wonder none of them even glanced in my direction."

Chen Guo'er was very depressed. These days, she had been thinking about seeing Qin Jue again.

But Qin Jue seemed to have forgotten about her as a friend.

"Qin Jue, come here and face your death!"

Suddenly, a cold voice came from the nearby mountains and forests.

Immediately afterwards, a figure in black robes, exuding a violent and powerful aura, emerged from the forest.

The person who came had their head down, their face half-hidden in shadow under the brim of their hat, making it impossible to see their full features.
