Perfect Double Agent

As the Holy Maiden of the Heaven-Mending Sect, she truly has money and can do whatever she wants.

"If you can find immortal gold and precious seeds with this kind of map, why can't I buy them?"

white night:"……"

Good heavens, those two old fogies actually leaked this kind of information. It's not surprising that Yuechan would fall for it. If it were the witch, she probably would have bought even more!

"Is my immortal seed in your hands?"

"It's not on me." Yuechan shook her head. This ambiguous answer made Bai Ye guess what was going on.

It might be true that it wasn't with her, but she didn't say whether she brought it to the Upper Realm or not.

"Give it a try. I don't know if it will work, but you'd better not have too high hopes." With that, Bai Ye tossed the ancient map over and prepared to head south.

Holding the ancient map, Yuechan glanced up slightly and said, "The witch is in the Heavenly Palace, seemingly chosen. You cannot find her."

"Chosen?" Bai Ye was surprised by this sudden news. Yue Chan had no reason to lie to him, but he wasn't surprised that a witch could obtain an inheritance. In terms of talent, the witch was no worse than Yue Chan.

But is she inviting me?

Yuechan didn't speak, but took the initiative to walk forward. It was unclear whether she acquiesced or if her innate pride prevented her from offering an invitation.

After all, they were enemies. Although they had cooperated once, the antagonistic relationship between the two major religions meant that they were inherently on opposite sides.

……

The mountains stretched endlessly, and a startling chaotic energy flowed across much of the land. The sky was overcast, devoid of sun or moon, hazy and indistinct, like a gloomy realm filled with an oppressive atmosphere.

Two figures came from afar, one after the other, and landed on this land, gazing at the distant mountain ranges.

It was even darker there, and the oppressive, gloomy atmosphere was like a tide, pressing down on the sky and the ground, making it hard to breathe, as if a super ferocious beast was lurking inside.

"This should be it. Black mist appears in the sky, and chaos surges from the earth. It matches the supreme purgatory depicted in the scroll!" A clear voice rang out, bringing a glimmer of life to this land.

"you sure?"

"Trust my judgment, it can't be wrong!" Holding the ancient map, Yuechan compared it several times before taking the initiative to move forward.

It must be said that serious and confident women always possess a special charm, even if they are not old.

But before they had even walked ten miles, Yuechan suddenly felt a pang of fear. She turned around abruptly, her beautiful eyes blinking rapidly in the darkness as she looked at the person so close to her. "What... are you doing!"

"It's too dark. I'd like to borrow some light, since your body emits light."

These sudden words made Yuechan gasp for breath, her mind going a beat slower than usual. She lowered her eyes and glanced at her own body.

Hmm... she is indeed very fair-skinned, glowing, and flawless. However, these somewhat ambiguous words suddenly reminded her of a scene from the past, where the two of them faced each other without any secrets between them.

Although it was an accident and no one mentioned it again, for a woman, whether she is a noble fairy or an ordinary mortal, she will have a complex feeling about the first person to see her body.

"You... stay away from me."

Yuechan whispered and quickened her pace, which puzzled Bai Ye. Why did she suddenly turn on him? Was she planning to abandon him after using him?

However, as they gradually approached deeper into the area, the world became increasingly quiet, as if a primordial beast was lurking ahead, utterly silent.

Bai Ye was hanging behind Yue Chan, more than ten meters away. For some reason, he felt uneasy, and the feeling grew stronger as they went deeper.

The feeling didn't come from the front, but from behind. Ever since entering this area, it felt like something was watching them, giving him goosebumps.

Bai Ye always trusted his intuition. This area was too strange. The black mist and chaotic fog intertwined, making the whole world dark. Even divine sense could not penetrate very far. In addition, his cultivation was suppressed. If there were any ferocious creatures, it would be absolutely catastrophic.

"Don't you think we seem to be in danger...?" Bai Ye looked back, glancing around repeatedly.

But after waiting for a while, there was no response. Turning around, he saw that Yuechan, who had already climbed halfway up the mountain, was slowly retreating, as if she had seen something incredible.

"boom!"

A sound rang out, and a soft body, cool and fragrant, with smooth, glossy black hair wafting around as she moved, made Bai Ye's neck itch.

But the next moment, the body suddenly tensed up, like a real dragon turning over, with immense strength, almost knocking him away.

Fortunately, his physical body was very strong, and his strength was also considerable. He quickly pinned down the violently reacting Yuechan. "It's me. What did you see?"

Hearing the voice beside her, Yuechan quietly breathed a sigh of relief and whispered, "There's someone there..."

Chapter 69 You're Shameless

"Someone?"

Bai Ye immediately became serious. Only eight people entered this small world back then. Gu Changfeng and two others were killed, the witch and Feng Wu disappeared, and Li Yuncong was not with him.

Logically speaking, there should be no one left.

But what horrified him was that there was indeed a shadow behind a large rock halfway up the mountain in the distance.

The shadow was only half-hidden, pitch black, and shrouded in mist. From a distance, it looked like a swaying ghost, seemingly wandering back and forth. In this silent world, it was truly eerie.

In fact, if you don't look closely, you can hardly see that there is a shadow in the darkness!

"Go take a look in the mirror; it might just be fog. Don't scare yourself unnecessarily."

"You go."

"Hmm?" Bai Ye turned around, making Yue Chan feel uncomfortable. Her beautiful eyes kept darting around and avoiding eye contact, showing both cuteness and a little timidity.

"I don't emit light, what's the point of going up there and shining it on me?"

Yuechan: "..."

Okay, when it comes to shamelessness, she thinks ten of hers combined might not be a match for this guy. But what she's afraid of is that if something happens, this guy will run away faster than her.

The moon moved, cautiously yet brightly, its holy radiance completely illuminating the area around it, making it resemble a small, human-shaped moon—beautiful indeed.

However, it was faintly visible that the body, which was lying on a rock and constantly stretching its little head, was extremely tense, as if it was ready to retreat at any moment.

"So you can be timid too?" Bai Yexin said, as if she had discovered a new continent. There are very few people who can witness such a scene.

But just as he was about to step forward, suddenly, an invisible wave swept across the sky, causing the space to ripple.

The sensation was so intense, it was as if some ghost was drifting away above him, causing his scalp to twitch suddenly, followed by a wave of chills washing over his entire body.

"Don't move, I haven't seen it clearly yet... stay away from me!" Yuechan felt an itch on her neck, as if someone was blowing cold air on it. Her snow-white swan neck was clearly visible and instantly turned red.

However, what she didn't know was that Bai Ye was staring at her in a daze from a distance, and even his figure was slowly retreating.

"white night……"

Suddenly, Yuechan's body stiffened, and an unprecedented chill swept through her entire body, causing her to instantly shift dozens of meters to the side.

In the instant she turned around, a sharp, long horn gleaming with a cold light appeared in her original spot. If she had reacted any slower, it was hard to imagine what terrible consequences would have occurred.

Meanwhile, in another location, things were also changing. A figure in white robes quickly put on a black garment, blending seamlessly into the surroundings. Under her gaze, the figure revealed a bright smile with small white teeth, then hid behind a large rock, motionless, completely disappearing without a trace.

Yuechan pursed her lips, made a teleportation talisman, and flew down from the mountainside like a streak of light, her speed astonishing.

She didn't know what kind of ferocious beast it was, but judging from its aura, it was at least at the early stage of the Formation Realm, and might even be a Venerable One.

Bai Ye, who was hiding in the shadows and watching this scene, nodded to himself. Compared to the witch, Yue Chan still had some pride; at least she didn't trick him.

Look at him, so young yet so responsible, he lured that ferocious beast away all by himself.

However, just as this thought crossed his mind, he saw a luminous white shadow emerge from the distant mist, and judging from its trajectory, it seemed to be heading towards the location where he was hiding.

"You...don't come any closer!"

Bai Ye was giving frantic hints, his eyes almost twitching, but the beautiful eyes behind the veil remained unmoved. Clearly, this little fairy had a strong desire for revenge.

"Can we still have fun together?"

Bai Ye got up, put on a black trench coat, and ran away. He was incredibly agile, and it was difficult to spot him if you weren't careful.

However, Yuechan seemed determined to fight him head-on, shrouded in a pure white, holy halo that illuminated and purified everything in her path, making her his natural nemesis.

At this moment, Bai Ye stopped pretending and ran away. However, above his head, Yue Chan was like a dazzling and radiant light, kindly illuminating the dark road ahead for him.

What an understanding woman! She was even afraid he couldn't see clearly, so she took the initiative to lower the height.

So the two of them kept running with their heads down, but as they ran, they suddenly realized that the world had changed.

The smog is still thick here, but what's truly terrifying is the overwhelming aura of death. It's as if an immense resentment permeates the entire world, making this area eerily silent and chilling.

"Where is this place..." Yuechan landed, her gaze extremely solemn.

This place seemed to be an endless plain, with a chilling wind blowing across the land, which was a crimson expanse. Occasionally, some blood-red sand grains could be seen rolling on their own and disappearing into the mist. The scene was extremely eerie and creepy, giving them goosebumps.

"Didn't you bring me here? You claimed you trusted my judgment, but I almost got chased to death by that thing."

"How can you be so sure this is a curse? What if it's a blessing in disguise!" Yuechan took out a high-level escape talisman and placed it in front of Baiye.

“Yes, it’s definitely a blessing. Please continue.” Bai Ye reached out his hand, polite and extremely gentlemanly, provided one could ignore his nimble hand as he quickly took away the escape talisman.

To be honest, this is definitely a big customer. In such a short time, he has already obtained half a sacred herb and a talisman that is suspected to be made by a true god. Either of these two things, if released, would be enough for any Venerable to fight tooth and nail for, and even divine fire would be scrambling to collect them.

Yuechan pursed her lips, her eyes crinkling with a smile. She knew that beneath this seemingly mature exterior lay a mischievous heart.

Within a great sect, most people wear a veil of secrecy. Some are arrogant, some are cold, and some are domineering, but these are mostly influenced by the environment. Within the sect, there exists a cruel reality unknown to outsiders, where competition and infighting are no less intense than outside.

Like Yuechan, she was also lonely. Her innate transcendence and nobility made her seem to have a special mission from birth.

She was never short of flatterers or suitors. People marveled at her beauty and envied her talent. Wherever she went, she was the center of attention, like a fairy standing high above the clouds.

But in reality, she was just an eleven-year-old girl, far from having the same single-minded devotion to the Dao that she would later possess, nor the future arrogance and aloofness; she was simply somewhat indifferent and serene.

"Tell me, what would the witch think if she knew you accepted my things?" Yuechan seemed a little playful, and also a little mischievous, staring intently at Baiye.

"Who said I received this? I clearly stole it from you."

"You...you're shameless!"

Chapter 70 Void Beast

The blood-red sand plains stretched endlessly, as if without end. The earth was a deep crimson, as if it had been drenched in blood, and occasionally one could see exposed bones and broken weapons.

This place resembles an ancient battlefield, its origins lost to time, evoking both the chilling atmosphere of war and the quietude of bygone eras.

Two figures walked on the sand, one observing their surroundings, the other constantly looking back.

They had already traveled more than twenty miles, but the unknown creature behind them was still following them, which was rare. Since they came to this world, that creature was the first living being they had encountered.

According to Yuechan, the three of them were in a cluster of celestial palace buildings when she and the witch were fighting over the sacred medicine. As a result, she accidentally stepped on an array pattern and was teleported away. When she reappeared, she was already at the edge of the world.

However, not a single living creature was ever seen.
