After transmigrating into the body of a junior sister of a celestial sect, the cultivation world wen

The Soul-Seizing Technique paused, realizing that Ning Yue was telling the truth, and then struggled to speak.

"I can provide you with... the secrets of the Purgatory Sect!"

"Oh, right!" he said urgently, "You don't know the secret of those giant rats from the Purgatory Sect, do you? I'll tell you everything—"

"That was formed from the demonic energy that a disciple of the Purgatory Sect sacrificed himself to feed the demon! Its beast core can help the disciple improve his cultivation..."

Ning Yue and Shi Yinghan's expressions changed drastically at the same time, and they became interested: "Continue."

Elder Soul-Seizing breathed a sigh of relief.

"In order to restore his prestige in the Upper Realm, Qi Bei shifted all the blame for his collusion with the demons onto me..."

His eyes were filled with resentment.

"He clearly promised to send someone to pick me up when the demons invaded, but he just left me here to fend for myself."

Ning Yue interrupted him with a cold laugh: "I'm not interested in your complaints. Can you say something useful?"

The Soul-Seizing One revealed a humiliated expression: "Qi Bei has long been colluding with the Demon Clan."

"Although it was my idea to have Chu Zhi and you switch fates, it was Qi Bei who fully assisted in making it happen."

"There isn't a single normal disciple in the Purgatory Sect right now; they're all giant rat trainees, meant to be food for disciples with high aptitude."

Ning Yue remained noncommittal, knowing he wasn't lying.

This situation matches the condition of the Purgatory Sect disciples she had seen before.

...It's all demonic energy.

Shi Yinghan asked incredulously, "So the reason Chu Zhi knows your magic is because we exchanged fates...?"

As the senior disciple, this was the first time he had ever heard of this matter.

Ning Yue nodded, without denying it.

"However, changing my fate is not an easy thing. Look at Chu Zhi, this is the consequence of using crooked methods."

He was too weak to withstand Ning Yue's power and died.

Ning Lian knew about this, after all, it was part of her daughter's tribulation.

But he had to pretend to be extremely shocked and wanted to smash Elder Soul-Seizing to death, only to be stopped by Ning Yue in a nonchalant manner.

"If nothing unexpected happens, Chu Zhi is probably dead..." Shehun looked at Ning Yue, his eyes full of understanding.

"I can't feel her presence anymore."

"Otherwise what?" Ning Yue turned to look at him and said, "...Why would I spare her life?"

Soul-Stealing shook his head: "That's true..."

"Chu Zhi was also deliberately sent down by Qi Bei. Even though Chu Zhi won at the time, Qi Bei instructed the Twelve Seats to kill Chu Zhi."

"Qi Bei has completely taken control of the Upper Realm and no longer needs Chu Zhi. He plans to perish in the Lower Realm along with the secrets she carries."

"Heartless and insane." Shi Yinghan was once again shocked by the other party's lack of decency, and wanted to say something but couldn't find the right words.

Ning Yue lowered his gaze, looking at the hunched-over Elder of Soul Seduction.

"Even if you don't say anything, I will settle accounts with Qi Bei sooner or later."

The Soul-Seizing One remained calm and showed no reaction.

"I know."

Ning Yue tilted her chin to one side: "Even if you've said all that, I'm still going to kill you."

"I have all the evidence that Qi Bei colluded with the demons and exchanged fates," Shehun said calmly, appearing very composed.

"Qi Bei has already staged a drama in the Upper Realm, where he was forced to submit to the Demon Clan."

They've pinned all the blame on me, but I have evidence that he was the mastermind.

"I'm willing to sacrifice my life to bring down Qi Bei and the Purgatory Sect. It seems like a very good deal." He raised his face and looked directly at Ning Yue.

Ning Yue couldn't help but laugh, somewhat surprised: "Are you trying to negotiate with me?"

Elder Soul-Seizing remained expressionless, saying nothing, but staring intently at Ning Yue.

it goes without saying.

He certainly believed that what he offered was extremely valuable, to the point that Ning Yue would definitely be tempted.

After all, who wouldn't want the person who ruined their sect to be disgraced?

"No need," Ning Yue said coldly.

Her tone of voice changed so quickly that even the Soul-Stealing One felt a little overwhelmed.

His face went blank for a moment, almost unable to believe that Ning Yue had said those words.

"...This is irrefutable evidence; everyone who sees it will absolutely believe it!"

"Why should they believe me?" Ning Yue interrupted him, casually twisting her fingers as she looked directly at Elder Soul-Seizing.

Elder Soul-Seizing felt all the blood in his body surge, almost as if his internal organs were being churned up.

"I can kill whom in an instant, so why bother trying to convince others, and why waste my breath on you?"

Ning Yue's eyes darkened, and an almost bone-chilling coldness tightly enveloped Shu Hun.

It gave him the illusion that he was being entangled by a cold-blooded animal.

The next moment—

A spurt of blood erupted from his body.

Elder Soul-Seizing's face was blank, he was in a daze, and he covered his wound, not knowing what to say.

"How...how is this possible..."

How could I have hurt him without even lifting a finger...?!

Ning Yue turned to Shi Yinghan and said, "Senior brother, turn your head away, it's too bloody."

I was afraid of scaring him...

Shi Yinghan: "..."

Shi Yinghan obediently turned around.

Junior sister is afraid of scaring him, so she'll just have to cooperate.

Just as he turned around, a sticky sound came from behind him, accompanied by the splashing of water and the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.

Ning Yue casually tossed an ice crystal arrow behind him: "Alright, that's settled... Let's go back."

Shi Yinghan didn't turn around, and Chong Ningyue smiled and said, "Let's go."

Back at the palace, another bombshell announcement came.

Ji Liyan is back!

Ning Yue and Shi Yinghan were naturally overjoyed and immediately went to find Ji Liyan.

Ji Liyan has been properly taken care of. He has many wounds on his body, and they look quite serious.

His complexion was a little pale, but he looked to be in good spirits.

Shi Yinghan immediately asked, "How are you feeling, Senior Brother?"

Jiang Yishen had already fed Ji Liyan the pills, and all the wounds on his body had been properly treated.

"I'm fine physically, just some minor injuries. I've successfully obtained the key to open the sect."

"It's good that you're healthy," Shi Yinghan said.

"Now that we have the key, will we be able to return to our sect soon?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Liyan fell into deep thought.

Ning Yue immediately asked, "Senior brother, what's the situation in the upper realm?"

"Not good. In short, now is not a good time to return to the sect," Ji Liyan said.

"Qi Bei completely portrayed himself as a victim, even though he was the one who met the demons' demands to go to the lower realm to eat people in order to preserve the upper realm's fighting force from the demons' invasion."

"But they insisted on saying that it was to protect the upper realm and that he single-handedly drove the demons away."

"The upper realm now completely believes Qi Bei's words, or rather, they have no choice but to believe him."

"Moreover..." Ji Liyan paused, his expression turning somewhat somber.

"Qi Bei has already integrated the surrounding small sects and merged them all into the Purgatory Sect. It seems he wants to become the only dominant sect."
