Junior Sister must ascend this time!

Yun Qing's consciousness disappeared for a few seconds, but quickly returned. Yes, she was in the sky again...

Looking at the humanoid ball of light in front of her, which was much fainter than before, she sincerely commented, "You're so weak..."

Heaven's Way: ………

"Are you even speaking human language? Who am I doing this for? Isn't it all to help you?"

Yun Qing raised an eyebrow, sat cross-legged in mid-air, and rested her hands on her knees: "Help me? Did you find out where the remaining fragments of the guiding array are?"

Heavenly Dao: "That's not it."

Yun Qing was speechless: "Then why did you go to all that trouble to ask me to come up here? Were you bored? Or did you miss me?"

She said cheekily, "If you really miss me, you can chat with me using the jade slip, and I'll reply depending on my mood."

"I've called you here for something important, about your senior brothers and sisters," Tiandao said in a serious tone.

Yun Qing also dropped her joking expression. "Do you know how my senior brothers and sisters died in my previous life?"

Heavenly Dao: "No, I'm talking about your senior brothers and sisters in this life. Are you going to investigate their past lives too?"

Yun Qing was briefly puzzled, then suddenly realized, "You said last time you would help me investigate the cause of death of my senior brothers and sisters, do you mean that my senior brothers and sisters in this life will also die?"

She glared fiercely at the Heavenly Dao, "You'd better explain yourself!"

The ball of light trembled slightly. "Yes...yes."

Yun Qing was so angry that she coughed up a mouthful of blood—a really large mouthful.

Seeing this, Pei Shubai immediately channeled more spiritual energy into Yun Qing, even though Yun Qing's face had turned deathly pale.

Cen Ning kept wiping her mouth, "Junior Sister, don't scare me. Where does it hurt? Tell your senior sister, okay? Why did you vomit so much blood?"

Si Mingche paced anxiously to the side, "Ling Yue, do you even know how to apply the acupuncture needles? My junior sister's condition has worsened!"

Ling Yue's hands trembled with fear. "Impossible... Why is there still no breath? Why...?"

Jiang Mian stumbled out, shouting, "I'm going to find Master! No, I'm going to find the sect leaders; they must have a way..."

Everyone was trying to find a way to bring Yun Qing back. Yun Qing, who was "in the sky," didn't know what was happening down below. She only knew that her heart didn't seem to hurt as much anymore.

Yun Qing knew that now was not the time to blame Gou Tiandao. It must be something urgent for Gou Tiandao to come to her in such a hurry.

She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and asked, "What did you 'see'?"

Heaven said, "Promise me first that no matter what you see later, you must hold on. Also... don't hit me."

Yun Qing: "Mm."

The Heavenly Dao did not speak again, but waved its hand, and a scene appeared in front of Yun Qing.

Yun Qing's gaze remained fixed on that image for a long time.

In the scene, Pei Shubai lies on an altar, his white robes stained red with blood. His once strong chest has been ripped open with a long gash, the flesh torn open to reveal the stark white bones. The spot where the sword bone once stood is now empty, with only fragments of bone roughly torn off at the edges.

Looking further down, a section of the dantian had collapsed, and the spiritual root there had been stripped away, leaving not even a remnant.

His face was as white as paper, his eyes were half-closed, and his breathing was so weak that it was almost invisible.

Screen switch.

Cen Ning stood atop a mountain of corpses, her long hair disheveled, her eyes red-rimmed, and her demonic energy surging.

The long whip she had been holding turned bright red, as if it had been soaked in countless drops of blood.

Then, countless cultivators flew towards her, their sword lights, talisman lights, and magical artifact lights simultaneously illuminating half the sky.

"Those who fall into demonic possession must be punished by the righteous path!"

Cen Ning looked up at them, the red in her eyes overflowing her pupils, her voice hoarse, "Who is the real demon?! I am the demon, and what about you?!..."

Before she could finish speaking, the cultivators unleashed a barrage of swords and blades that pierced Cen Ning's body until not a single piece of flesh remained. Only then did they reluctantly cease their attack.

All the images disappeared. Yun Qing didn't speak or move; only a chilling aura emanated from her.

The Heavenly Dao hovered before her, cautiously asking, "Are you...are you alright?"

Yun Qing raised her head, her voice trembling, "Where is my third senior brother?"

"He's not dead." Tiandao paused. "But he's gone mad..."

Yun Qing wiped away her tears, then her eyes turned ruthless. "It's the Immortal Alliance, isn't it?"

Heaven's Way: "I didn't say, I don't know..."

Did he mention the Immortal Alliance in one sentence? Why did this girl guess it so quickly, but he couldn't say it...?

When Yun Qing spoke again, her expression had calmed down. "I understand. Take me downstairs."

If it weren't for the Immortal Alliance, Dog Heavenly Dao wouldn't have been in such a hurry to find her before they were about to go to the Immortal Alliance for training.

The Heavenly Dao sighed, and then Yun Qing lost consciousness again.

The first thing she saw when she opened her eyes was five silver needles as thick as her wrists—no, they should be called silver rods.

Ling Yue: "Let me try again!"

Yun Qing quickly sat up and crawled backward, pleading, "Senior Sister Ling Yue, please have mercy! If you try, I'll really die!"

"Clatter!"

The silver needle fell from Ling Yue's hand. "Junior Sister Yun Qing... she's scared to death?!"

Cen Ning hugged Yun Qing tightly, tears and snot streaming down her face, her voice trembling, "Junior Sister, you're not dead! That's wonderful! You scared me to death..."

Yun Qing hugged Cen Ning tightly. It's so good that you're alive too.

"Senior sister, I'm not going to die that soon. They say evil people live for a thousand years, but I'm nowhere near that..."

Si Mingche, who was supporting Pei Shubai, didn't care about his senior brother anymore. He threw him aside and muttered with a heavy nasal tone, "Junior sister, can you please not scare your senior brother like that next time? Your senior brother has a heart condition."

Yun Qing smiled and said, "I know, Third Senior Brother. I definitely won't do it again next time."

She glanced at Pei Shubai, who was carelessly tossed aside. "But what happened to Senior Brother?"

Ling Yue put a bottle of pills into Pei Shubai's mouth, "He's fine. He just overexerted his spiritual energy. He'll be fine after resting for a while."

No sooner had the words left his mouth than Jiang Mian returned, bringing all the sect leaders with him...

Pu Hengzhi struggled to stay upright, his voice hoarse, "Xiao Qing, it's all Master's fault. I didn't take good care of you. Hold on, no matter what it takes, I will save you. If the King of Hell won't let you go, I'll go to the eighteenth level of the Ghost Realm and snatch you back!"

The Xuanming Sect leader kicked Gu Changfeng in, yelling, "I told you to discuss tactics with young friend Yun Qing, how did you manage to get her gone? What on earth did you two do?!"

The abbot of the Sumeru School slapped Wuzheng on the head, "Are you just going to stand there like a dummy? Can't you recite the Rebirth Mantra? What use are you!"

The sect leader of the Azure Cloud Sect led a line of medical and alchemy practitioners into the room, their expressions as serious as if they were heading to a battlefield: "Where is the person? What are the symptoms? Is it spiritual energy disorder or meridian damage? Poisoning or external injury?"
