Whose heretical cultivator relies on a rich woman to attain enlightenment?

"She's gone mad! She's gone mad! This crazy woman!"

Her alluring face immediately changed color.

"Hasn't her cultivation level already dropped? She just had a fierce battle with me at Zhennan Pass not long ago. Even an iron man needs to cultivate and recuperate for several years, yet this crazy woman still has the strength?"

"If I really fight you to the death, you..."

He couldn't help but mutter a few curses.

Despite the cursing and running, she turned and left without a word or any lingering feelings. Being slashed by this crazy woman was no joke. Just as Ji Xiaoxiao herself said, she was indeed not the kind of person with a likable personality in the cultivation world.

Because she put all her attribute points into "Attack".

Its body retreated swiftly, transforming into a fox demon during the retreat. After twisting and turning in the air a few times, it vanished into a wisp of mist.

"Farewell, young master."

After leaving those words, he fled in a panic. Before Lu Cheng could react, the terrifying sword energy had already landed in front of the boy, carving a shocking trench in the ground. Just as he was about to speak, he found that the sword energy that had reached him suddenly dissipated and transformed into a giant hand.

They grabbed the boy and dragged him back forcefully!

The surrounding scenery and buildings rushed past, making it impossible to see them clearly with the naked eye. However, he could still vaguely sense that he had arrived in the city. He closed his eyes and began to recall the woman's appearance. He saw her for a moment when the last sword aura struck down.

But when he opened his eyes again, he found a refreshing fragrance wafting towards him.

"Senior sister?"

Lu Cheng felt that his voice was a little strained.

He had never seen what it looked like for high-level cultivators to fight. He had only overheard the conversation between the two at Zhennan Pass. But this time, he realized just how terrifying the gap between himself and his senior sister was.

Mortals and immortals are worlds apart.

Ji Xiaoxiao, her face veiled, stood motionless, her eyes filled with exhaustion, and even her breathing was abnormally disordered, showing that using sword energy had taken a considerable toll on her body.

However, she quickly adjusted her breathing rhythm, and her voice remained as ethereal and calm as ever, though it was not hard to hear the satisfaction in her voice.

"Junior brother, well done."

The boy was taken aback, but immediately guessed what it was.

"Senior sister, do you know that someone lured my soul out of the city?"

Shake head.

No, I don't know.

"I was just recuperating before. This heavy rain was brought by that fox demon. It was not harmful, but it would restrict people's movement and block their senses. At first, I did not want to dispel the dark clouds."

"Although that fox is a demon, I had dealings with her years ago. She shouldn't be the kind of person who doesn't know her place. Perhaps she just wanted to infiltrate Jingnan and that's why she used such magic."

"My injuries haven't healed yet, so I try to avoid trouble as much as possible. But later I sensed sword energy from your house."

"It's my sword energy."

A sudden realization dawned on his eyes.

Last time, his senior sister gave him her sword. This time, he was taken out of the city by the Soul Hook, so he couldn't use the trump card his senior sister left him. But he still had someone else at home.

Contains light.

It's likely that Han Guang sensed he was in danger but didn't know how to notify Ji Xiaoxiao, so he deliberately moved his sword.

"Since you are a member of your family, I naturally won't pursue the matter. I only took action after learning the news and cleaved the magic used by that fox demon. Sure enough, you have been taken out of the city."

"Senior sister, your injuries..."

Her eyes revealed concern. Although they hadn't known each other for long, this senior sister was indeed very attentive to her and considered everything carefully.

He waved his hand casually.

"Don't worry, I didn't use my full strength in that sword strike just now. I only intervened to force that fox demon to retreat because it was trying to attack you. As for why I didn't act immediately, it's because of the rules of the Sword Sect."

"Our Sword Sect disciples always uphold fairness and justice. If anyone takes advantage of their age or power to bully others, the sect elders will not stand idly by and will certainly seek justice."

"But if the cultivation levels are similar, losing means that one's skills are inferior, and the elders of the sect will not intervene. So even I will not take the initiative to make a move."

"Fortunately, Junior Brother has learned some skills during this time. If I'm not mistaken, they should be a peak initial realm cultivator and a second realm cultivator. Junior Brother's ability to fight two people and kill them is truly remarkable."

Although her face couldn't be seen, it wasn't hard to tell from Ji Xiaoxiao's tone that she was very satisfied.

An embarrassed smile appeared on his face. He was used to being manipulated by a certain fallen fairy at home every day, so he was a little caught off guard by such a straightforward praise. Ji Xiaoxiao's personality was just like that. She spoke her mind and never hid anything.

"It's all thanks to my senior sister's teaching. If it weren't for her swordsmanship... Oh, right!"

This reminder suddenly brought back memories for Lu Cheng.

"Senior sister, I have something important to report. It concerns the mastermind behind the recent outbreak of demonic energy in Jingnan, who is suspected to be a high-ranking figure in Jingnan."

He raised an eyebrow and gestured for her to proceed.

After mentally refining her words, she erased the fact that she could see memories by absorbing other people's spiritual roots, and attributed everything that had just happened to the villain's sudden illness when he gained the upper hand, swaggering out all his conspiracies and plans.

He nodded repeatedly, his brows furrowed. When he heard that someone was trying to shift the blame, he didn't show much shock, but rather remained unusually calm.

At first, she also thought it was the work of the demon race, but as time went on, she began to vaguely sense that something was wrong.

While battling the vixen at Zhennan Pass, she sensed that the other party was merely testing her, not trying to ascertain whether she was injured. Moreover, the demon army had not yet invaded their territory and remained within their own demon territory.

Furthermore, cultivators at her level are already in contact with the Heavenly Dao. If they do something that goes against the natural order, they will inevitably suffer calamity in the future.

Is it worth sacrificing your future just to disgust yourself?

It's like injuring the enemy by a thousand while also losing fifteen thousand of your own, right?

This is why she remained indifferent even though she knew the other party was using magic to infiltrate the city; she basically turned a blind eye.

If possible, she actually hoped to confirm it herself. If the other party hadn't ultimately tried to kidnap Lu Cheng, she probably wouldn't have taken action.

The moonlight illuminated the earth again, as if the torrential rain had never happened.

It wasn't until the first light of dawn appeared on the horizon that Lu Cheng was able to explain everything to his senior sister. Of course, this included some of his speculations. The only thing that was a little worrying was that his senior sister would be going into seclusion for a while again.

Despite his senior sister's attempts to reassure him, he was certain that his actions had taken a considerable toll on her body.

By the time Lu Cheng dragged his weary body home, it was already getting light.

He pushed open the door very gently, afraid of waking the sleeping girl inside. But when he entered the room, he found the familiar woman with a graceful figure lying on the table, breathing evenly.

"Master...you're back?"

As if sensing someone returning home, Han Guang barely opened his eyes, his pale face a sight that tugged at the heartstrings.

With a gentle smile, he picked the girl up by the waist and placed her on the bed.

"Okay, you're back. Go to sleep."
