Gu Qin, like Wen Yi, was completely awestruck by the Demon Sect after arriving.
It was unbelievably beautiful with lush mountains, crystal-clear waters, birds singing and flowers blooming. Was this really the infamous Demon Sect from the legends?
Before she could even process it, Tang Guo handed her a cultivation technique suited to her. Once she started cultivating smoothly, the little girl, who had never experienced such rapid progress before, became completely immersed in her training.
Seeing this, Wen Yi thought that as the senior disciple, he couldn’t afford to lag behind. The two of them became the most diligent cultivators in the Demon Sect, and their dedication quickly influenced the other disciples.
No matter what, they couldn’t let themselves fall behind two kids.
Meanwhile, Feng Feiling soon received word that the Tianhuo Sect had also been taken over by the Demon Sect and had even been renamed the Tianhuo Branch.
“Brother Yeling, what exactly is going on with the Demon Sect?” If the incident at Tianhuo Sect wasn’t the result of what she had set in motion, then the Demon Sect’s takeover shouldn’t have anything to do with her.
This was the second time now. Every time she made a move, the Demon Sect would swoop in right after and claim the territory. She couldn’t help but be suspicious.
“The Demon Sect is expanding its territory,” Leng Yeling wasn’t wrong. Mo Yuntian had previously mentioned plans to extend the sect’s influence. “They probably just happened to run into the chaos at Tianhuo Sect and took advantage of the situation.”
Hearing Leng Yeling’s confident response, Feng Feiling’s suspicions eased a little. If something like this happened at Tianhuo Sect, it wouldn’t be just the Demon Sect taking action. Any ordinary sect that saw such an opportunity wouldn’t sit back and do nothing. They would certainly try to seize it.
She frowned slightly. What really concerned her was Gu Qin, who was still in Tianhuo Sect. She had stolen Gu Qin’s destined opportunity. Without it, would that so-called genius still be able to grow?
She had already destroyed the Five-Element cultivation technique.
Leng Yeling noticed Feng Feiling deep in thought, and a slight doubt arose in his mind. Once or twice could be a coincidence, but he couldn’t shake the feeling that something wasn’t right.
But he didn’t dwell on it. He had his own secrets and had no intention of telling Feng Feiling. The Demon Sect was thriving now. If he revealed that Tang Guo was in the sect, given Feng Feiling’s personality, she would definitely stir up trouble, making it impossible for the sect to have any peace. That would be letting his master down.
As long as Tang Guo didn’t go after Ling’er or threaten the Demon Sect, he had no reason to intervene.
Ever since returning and seeing Tang Guo, his mind had become clearer. He had thought it over many times and there were too many suspicious things about Feng Feiling. But maybe she had her own difficulties.
“Ling’er, are you planning something?” Leng Yeling finally asked.
Feng Feiling’s heart skipped a beat. Thinking back, she realized that she had been letting too much emotion slip lately. Being constantly thwarted by fate had made her careless.
“Brother Yeling, what are you thinking? What could I possibly be planning?” She kept her tone light, unwilling to let him grow suspicious. At least not until she had grown strong enough that no one could stand in her way. “I was just curious. I thought the Demon Sect was up to something major. If they provoke the righteous sects, it won’t be good for you.”
Seeing the sincerity in Feng Feiling’s eyes, which didn’t seem like a lie, Leng Yeling forgot his previous doubts and pulled her into his arms. “If there’s anything you want to do, Ling’er, you can ask me for help.”
“Brother Yeling, I’ve heard that a secret realm is about to open. Let’s go explore it together.”
“Alright.”
Meanwhile, Tang Guo gave Mo Yuntian a smile. Bai Wuqing’s fingers twitched slightly, his gaze never leaving Tang Guo’s face, choosing to believe that her smile was meant for him.
“Let’s go explore a secret realm. One’s about to open soon.”
