Chapter 11: The two of them actually match each other quite well [please vote]

On the other side.

At Lingxu Sect.

As one of the major powers on the Yuan Yang Continent, the Lingxu Sect does possess a certain level of strength.

The sect covers an area of more than a hundred miles, with nearly one hundred thousand disciples.

There are a total of three Divine Yuan Realm experts!

Of course, this is no match for the Demon Sect. The Demon Sect has around twenty Divine yuan Realm experts, unmatched across the world.

It is even rumored that there are numerous hidden powerhouses within the Demon Sect, and there may even be some at the Extreme Martial Realm!*

[*” Extreme Martial Realm (极武之境)” – A hypothetical high-level cultivation realm in fantasy wuxia novels, representing unmatched martial prowess.]

So even though the new Demon Lord of the Demon Sect had slept with Lingxu Sect’s Holy Maiden, who also happens to be the Sect Leader’s disciple, the Sect Leader could only come to reason with them and seek an explanation.

If someone weaker than Lingxu Sect had done such a thing, Lingxu Sect would have wiped out their entire clan.

But, the weak are prey to the strong;* being bullied by the powerful leaves no choice but to swallow one’s pride.

[*” Weak are prey to the strong (弱肉强食)” – A Chinese idiom that means survival of the fittest.]

This is the way of the world!

After Liu Wenwan returned with Yun Luoxi, Yun Luoxi shut herself off and refused to see anyone.

She locked herself in her room, not meeting a single person.

Liu Wenwan knew it was her incompetence. She had failed to protect her beloved disciple, and she hadn’t even been able to avenge her.

None of this could have happened if she had protected Yun Luoxi more carefully while she was in seclusion.

Her disciple had always been proud, and now that something like this had happened to her, how could she possibly accept it?

That bastard Lingxue! There were countless women in the world, so why did he have to target her beloved disciple?

Then again, with so many women in the world, none could surpass her disciple in beauty or grace.

Her beloved disciple was like a gift from the heavens, as beautiful as a celestial being and extraordinarily talented.

A masterpiece of the world, unique and unparalleled!

But she had been ruined just like that…

On the other hand, that bastard Lingxue is undeniably breathtakingly handsome, and his talent far surpasses her disciple’s…

Plus, he’s the new Demon Lord of the Demon Sect.

Thinking about it, her disciple and Lingxue were a good match…

If her disciple had agreed to marry Lingxue, it might have actually been a good thing.

It would have benefited the entire Lingxu Sect…

At this thought, Liu Wenwan quickly shook her head, forcefully suppressing the inappropriate notion.

Damn it! Her disciple was already in so much pain, how could she entertain such a thought?

It’s a sin, a sin…

In the two days since her return, Yun Luoxi stayed in her room, not eating or drinking, and seeing no one.

This made Liu Wenwan somewhat worried that Yun Luoxi might take things too hard.

Until Liu Wenwan suddenly heard that the Demon Sect was planning to head to Cangyun Tian Mountain to seize the ancient technique, the Qiankun Sword Art!

Lingxue was going too!

Liu Wenwan immediately shared this news with Yun Luoxi.

Upon hearing it, Yun Luoxi finally stepped out of her room.

Facing the sunlight, the ethereal beauty with white robes and white hair gently opened the door and walked out.

Her jade-like face appeared especially radiant and captivating under the sunlight.

Her cold and beautiful face showed none of the despair that Liu Wenwan had expected!

Instead, it had become even colder and more determined than before.

Seeing this, Liu Wenwan finally felt at ease.

Her disciple, no matter what, was indeed strong!

She knew Yun Luoxi wouldn’t crumble so easily!

“Is what Master said true?” Yun Luoxi asked after stepping out.

“True! The Demon Sect has already begun to act! And all other forces, after hearing about this, are also heading towards Cangyun Tian Mountain!” Liu Wenwan nodded.

“Then we’re going too!” Yun Luoxi said decisively.

“But…” Liu Wenwan frowned slightly. “Aren’t you afraid of running into him?”

“Why should I be afraid?” At the mention of him, a shadow flickered in Yun Luoxi’s eyes.

She was indeed not afraid of Ling Xue!

She only wished she could kill that bastard sooner.

People like her who weren’t afraid of Ling Xue were few and far between in the world.

After all, even her master had to lower her head in front of Ling Xue.

Who else in this world, besides her Yun Luoxi, dared to draw a sword and strike at Lingxue?

“The Qiankun Sword Art is an ancient technique left behind by a mighty expert. If I obtain it, I will surely be able to avenge myself!” Yun Luoxi said coldly.

She continued, “This was her chance to grow stronger. Only by becoming stronger, stronger than Ling Xue, stronger than the entire Demon Sect! Could she have a chance to exact her revenge? Could she personally cut Ling Xue into pieces?”

Hearing this, Liu Wenwan understood.

At the same time, she was relieved. Her disciple hadn’t collapsed; instead, she had gained more motivation to become stronger.

In a way, this was a good thing!

Liu Wenwan replied, “Good! If you want to go, I will go with you!”

Liu Wenwan immediately nodded firmly. “No matter what, I will make sure you get the Qiankun Sword Art!”

“Thank you, Master!” Yun Luoxi nodded gently.

Thus, the master and disciple prepared themselves and set off for Cangyun Tian Mountain.

They didn’t plan on taking anyone else with them. On one hand, Lingxu Sect’s top experts didn’t have the time.

On the other hand, taking extra people along would sometimes just be a burden.

With just the two of them, it would be easier to move swiftly.

At the same time, in another part of Lingxu Sect.

Here lay a clear spiritual pool.

In the clear waters, several female disciples of the Lingxu Sect were playfully splashing and laughing.

A flock of beauties frolicking in the water, a truly enchanting scene.

Their delicate robes hung from the branches by the side of the spiritual pool.

But just as they were enjoying themselves, an unwelcome hand reached out from the bushes, quietly stealing their robes away.

And the owner of that hand was none other than the protagonist of the original story!

One of Lingxu Sect’s disciples, Ye Feng!

A notorious troublemaker.

A famously perverted scoundrel.*

[*”流氓 (liúmáng)”: A derogatory term meaning “scoundrel,” often used to describe someone acting shamelessly or improperly.]

A fool who spent his days laughing and acting no different from a street thug.
