A reincarnated girl, who begins by possessing a cultivator.

That attack just now caused him considerable injury, reducing his combat power by at least 50%. If Su Chun still has the strength to activate the magic weapon, then he's probably doomed.

He Lan suddenly had the idea of ​​quitting.

He killed Liang Xuance's descendants and returned to his sect, where he could still receive a considerable reward. There was no need for him to lose his life here.

"Forget it, this little girl is strange, we can't continue."

With that, he roared and channeled his power into the sword in his hand. The sword rapidly grew larger, transforming into a giant sword that fell towards Su Chun.

Su Chun frowned, just as she was about to activate the defensive magic weapon, but just as the giant sword was about to fall, it suddenly shattered, turning into streams of light that stung Su Chun so much that she quickly raised her hand to block her vision.

After the light faded, only a voice filled with resentment remained in my ears.

"Su Chun, right? I'll remember you. You'll be in big trouble next time we meet."

The sound came from afar.

That move he just made was actually a bluff; his main purpose was to escape.

"Escape?"

Su Chun was surprised because, to be honest, she was also close to her limit. If He Lan continued to pester her, even if she could win, she would have to pay a greater price.

It can only be said that He Lan was intimidated by Su Chun's composure.

The main reason is that Su Chun has acquired a series of treasures, which is not the kind of foundation a Qi Refining disciple should have.

Chapter 14 The Storm Temporarily Subsides

Still shaken, Meng Yu's face was filled with disbelief.

Su Chun actually repelled a Foundation Establishment cultivator, and even more unbelievably, this Foundation Establishment cultivator turned out to be a spy from the demonic path, who also killed Liang Xincheng.

Su Chun still had some power within her to release magical treasures, but she felt that she was being a bit too exaggerated. First, there was the talisman treasure, then the top-grade magical artifact, and then the high-grade magical artifact, so she felt that she still needed to put on a show.

So she pretended to be weak and staggered to Meng Yu's side, then released Meng Yu from her restraints.

As soon as she regained her mobility, Meng Yu, her face full of worry, helped Su Chun up.

"Senior Sister Su, are you... are you alright?"

Su Chun shook her head.

"No, it's nothing. I just used up too much spiritual energy. Help me back to the herb garden."

Meng Yu nodded, and then summoned a flying artifact to send Su Chun back.

But then I suddenly thought of the corpses of Liang Xingcheng and the others.

"Are we just going to leave like this? What about their bodies?"

Su Chun had no intention of searching their belongings. They were just Qi Refining cultivators; what could they possibly have on them? Even if they did, she wouldn't take it.

Besides, she originally intended to kill Liang Xingcheng and the others. Now that someone has done it for her, why bother making trouble for herself?

“Someone helped us with this. Remember, if the sect comes to question you afterward, just say you know nothing. Of course, you have to answer truthfully about Liang Xingcheng forcing you to engage in dual cultivation.”

Su Chun gave a reminder.

Meng Yu naturally knew this, but she was still worried that the sect would find out.

"But Liang Xingcheng went to cause you so openly, surely other people know about it. Won't they suspect you?"

Su Chun shook her head.

"Don't worry, He Lan definitely won't dare to return to the sect. He'll probably just flee back to Luo Sha Kingdom. The fact that Liang Xingcheng went to find him to deal with me can't be kept secret. But if he escapes, the sect will only think that He Lan killed Liang Xingcheng."

Meng Yu thought about it and realized that this made sense.

So he first escorted Su Chun back to the herb garden. When they returned, Meng Yu was full of apologies.

"Senior Sister Su Chun, I... I've caused you trouble again. I originally wanted to go and admit defeat to Liang Xingcheng, but I didn't expect him to use me to set a trap for you."

Upon returning, Su Chun immediately began meditating and regulating her breathing.

"The time I helped you three years ago, this situation was destined to happen today. Some troubles are unavoidable. Not to mention, as female cultivators, we are cultivation resources in the eyes of many male cultivators, and we are naturally easy targets."

Meng Yu's current attitude towards Su Chun can no longer be described as mere admiration.

Su Chunming knew it was a trap, yet he still risked his life to save her. She feared she could never repay such a debt of gratitude in her lifetime.

After giving Meng Yu some instructions, Su Chun told Meng Yu to go back first.

The night passed just like that, but the trouble certainly wasn't completely over.

The next morning, someone passing by the stone forest discovered the bodies of Liang Xingcheng and others.

The news quickly reached the ears of the Grand Elder, Liang Xuance.

At this moment, inside the main hall of the Xuan Yue Sect, a young man in brocade robes was looking at Liang Xingcheng's body lying on the ground with a gloomy face.

The atmosphere in the main hall was extremely solemn. The other elders and Li Qi, the current sect leader of Xuan Yue Sect, did not dare to utter a sound.

"Investigate! Find out exactly who killed my descendant, Liang Xuance."

Liang Xuance's voice echoed throughout the entire Xuan Yue Sect.

The order was issued in the morning, and by the afternoon, someone had arrived at Meng Yu's residence.

As the door to Meng Yu's residence was knocked open, a male and a female Foundation Establishment cultivator looked at Meng Yu with grim faces.

"Meng Yu, right? The sect leader wants to question you."

Although Meng Yu had anticipated that the sect would come looking for her, she did not expect it to be so soon. She pretended to be calm and followed the two to the sect's main hall.

Then, following Su Chun's instructions, he explained what needed to be said to Sect Master Li Qi.

Liang Xincheng's reputation goes without saying. If it weren't for Liang Xuance protecting him, Li Qi could have dealt with him according to the sect rules based on his actions.

This Li Qi is Yue Ningxuan's apprentice and Ding Yuqin's niece, but unfortunately, she is now in a bad situation.

With her master in seclusion breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage and her grandmaster away searching for a breakthrough opportunity, she had no one above her to support her, so she could only obey Liang Xuance's orders.

Meng Yu's answer was a mixture of truth and falsehood, but there was nothing seriously wrong with it.

Then she told Meng Yu to go back first and continue to send people to investigate. The investigation led to Su Chun, but Su Chun was personally brought in by her master. Although Li Qi did not know her identity, she would definitely help Su Chun cover it up.

Then the investigation led to He Lan, who has since lost contact. Logically, He Lan is the prime suspect.

Li Qi then reported the findings of her investigation to Liang Xuance.

When Liang Xuance heard that his descendant had clashed with Su Chun for being an ordinary disciple, and had even been reprimanded by Su Chun, he was shocked.

Her first thought was, could it be that Su Chun killed her descendants?

Because Ding Yuqin was no pushover, given her personality, it seemed reasonable for her to kill a junior disciple who had offended her that night.

But then he heard that Liang Xingcheng had gone to his disciples that day, wanting them to deal with Su Chun. He immediately felt that things were not so simple. In the end, he learned that because his disciples refused to help, Liang Xingcheng approached a Foundation Establishment cultivator with no background.

Since this Foundation Establishment cultivator has disappeared and cannot be contacted, everything seems clear.

They began to investigate He Lan in depth and eventually discovered that his background was problematic and that he was a fraud.

What kind of person would someone who fabricates their identity and background? It's not hard to guess.

But Liang Xuance felt that Su Chun must know exactly what happened last night.

Because he, as a descendant, wanted to deal with Su Chun, but was killed by the people he had invited, what role did Su Chun play in all of this?

So that evening, Liang Xuance came to the herb garden. She was no longer polite as usual and barged into Su Chun's residence without even saying hello.

"Ding Yuqin, shouldn't you give me an explanation for the death of my descendant Liang Xingcheng?"

Liang Xuance stormed in, looking furious, and demanded an explanation.

Su Chun had anticipated that Liang Xuance would come to find her; it wasn't something that was hard to predict.

"Oh, Elder Liang has arrived. I didn't come to confront you, but you've come to cause me trouble instead. If my cultivation hadn't fallen to the Qi Refining Realm, and if that kid hadn't been your descendant, I would have killed him long ago, given my past temper. You should know I have that kind of ability."

Su Chun opened her eyes and calmly looked at Liang Xuance.

Liang Xuance's gaze sharpened, as if he was about to be rude to Su Chun.

"So, you're saying his death is related to you?"

Su Chun shook her head.

“Last night, she tricked me into going to the stone forest outside the sect, set up a trapping formation there, and hired a Foundation Establishment cultivator named He Lan to kill me. Unfortunately, this He Lan is probably a spy from the demonic path. He took care of you and your followers as soon as he made a move, and then tried to kill me. But how could I, a Foundation Establishment cultivator, kill him?”

After listening, Liang Xuance fell silent for a moment.

He examined the wounds on Liang Xincheng and the others, and they certainly didn't seem to be the work of Su Chun.

If it were an ordinary person, even if Su Chun didn't kill them, the death of their descendants would still be inextricably linked to Su Chun.

However, Su Chun was the reincarnation of the former Grand Elder, Qu Xinyao's soul fire had not been extinguished, and Yue Ningxuan was still alive, so he dared not take the risk of attacking Su Chun.

"Hmph! It'd better not be you who did it, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless. You'll stay in this herb garden and watch yourself."

Liang Xuance raised his hand and waved it, releasing a powerful burst of magical energy that shattered everything in the room. Of course, this energy avoided Su Chun.

This attack served as a warning to Su Chun.

After Liang Xuance left, Su Chun, who had been quite calm, finally showed a hint of panic.

"Phew... Old man, I'll remember this today. You better pray that I'll never be able to form a Core or Nascent Soul, or you'll be sorry."

Su Chun clenched her fists, looking frustrated.

This matter is now considered closed.

Liang Xuance did not cause trouble for Meng Yu because of this matter, after all, it was he, as a descendant, who wanted to force Meng Yu to engage in dual cultivation.

As the Grand Elder of the Xuan Yue Sect, he still had to consider the sect's reputation.

Chapter 15 Lingyuan Blessed Land

Su Chun's return to the Xuan Yue Sect under the identity of Ding Yuqin has both advantages and disadvantages.

The advantage is that she can use her previous identity to obtain some cultivation resources, but the disadvantage is that she must also inherit Ding Yuqin's grudges with others.

The reason Liang Xuance was so rude to her was not only because Su Chun and the death of his descendants were related, but also because he had a grudge against Ding Yuqin.

In his early years, when Ding Yuqin was still the Grand Elder, she had reprimanded him for some things.
