The mastermind behind the scenes has been identified.
Chen Huaian was pondering that as long as he killed this old dog.
Li Qingran’s survival rate in this scenario must increase to one hundred percent, right?
However, the system did not provide an option to directly kill this Demon Cultivator.
It seemed either the distance was too far for precise guidance or it didn’t belong to the main storyline.
But so what?
This was a real world, and everything here could be influenced by his every word and action.
Chen Huaian paused his fingertips for a moment, finally lightly tapping the soft cheek.
Although he couldn’t feel the specific sensation, just looking at the indentation suggested the feeling of fingertips sinking into cotton.
“Hmm…” Li Qingran mumbled with her lips pouting, her dimples rippling as she frowned, her eyelashes fluttering, murmuring, “Master, please stop swaying… the flying boat is about to fall into the star sea…” Her muttering was sweet like osmanthus candy, scattered into fine light points by the night wind. A section of lotus-colored silk stockings embroidered with crooked rabbits was revealed under her crimson blouse, hitting the edge of the bamboo bed with a slap as she turned over.
Still dreaming about the flying boat falling into the star sea? She fell asleep after only a few minutes.
He originally wanted to wake up Li Qingran and have her call Su Qinian.
But seeing her sleep so soundly, he didn’t have the heart to disturb her.
For a period of time, Li Qingran had been working very hard on cultivation. Her cultivation level was already close to the later stage of Foundation Establishment. Such a cultivation speed would be considered a genius anywhere, which was inseparable from her practicing eight or nine hours a day.
“But without Li Qingran informing me, how am I supposed to notify Su Qinian?”
Chen Huaian opened the game view outside the hut. Even when he maximized the view, he could only see the top of Sunset Peak. Although he could drag the map, the places he dragged to were all covered in fog.
Without recharging or having special plots, his spiritual awareness range seemed to be limited to this small area.
[Would you like to recharge 998￥ to enhance your spiritual awareness coverage to the entire Sword Pavilion?]
[Next enhancement requires: Li Qingran’s cultivation realm reaches the Golden Core Stage]
When drowsiness comes, send a pillow.
Chen Huaian smiled slightly and recharged directly. Was 998 even money to him?
Money disappeared, spiritual awareness expanded, and the dark map instantly lit up a large area.
“Is this the feeling of strong spiritual awareness scanning around?” Chen Huaian looked left and right, feeling that every blade of grass and tree was under control. Looking casually at a figure, the lens automatically zoomed in, just catching Yue Qianchi, that little wench.
After realizing what Yue Qianchi was doing, Chen Huaian quickly moved his gaze away.
“Do not look at inappropriate things, do not look at inappropriate things… but it really is quite big…”
Li Qingran said Yue Qianchi liked to sleep naked, and unexpectedly she was completely undressed. No wonder there were so many formations outside her cave dwelling.
He locked his perspective on Su Qinian inside the sect leader’s hall, continuously enlarging it.
He saw Su Qinian lying half on a bamboo couch, one hand supporting his cheek, the other holding a private communication jade tablet, looking relaxed with a foolish smile.
Faint sounds could be heard:
[Little Moon, this seat misses you terribly. How have things been recently? Has your cultivation fallen behind? Hehe, one day this seat will personally come to inspect your body… By the way, this seat is a bit short on spirit stones recently. Can you lend some to this seat? Not much, just a little will do~ Ah, Little Moon, you’re the best~]
Chen Huaian: “…”
Now he finally understood why Sword Pavilion was so poor yet always managed to afford the spirit stones resources needed by disciples.
This Su Sect Leader contributed a lot behind the scenes.
“Hem!” Chen Huaian coughed lightly.
Su Qinian was startled, almost dropping the jade tablet in his hand.
“Donkey day… ahahaha, it’s the Ancestor. When did you come?”
Chen Huaian watched as this Sword Pavilion Leader awkwardly hid the jade tablet behind his back, his smile extremely strained.
[I’ve been here for three breaths… I didn’t expect the Sect Leader to have so many female friends, truly admirable.]
Su Qinian was startled internally, feeling like thorns were pricking his back.
He wondered, how did the Ancestor know what he was doing?
Even the spiritual awareness of a Cave Void cultivator shouldn’t be able to see that much.
His entire Sword Pavilion was protected by the sect’s grand formation.
That formation had been reinforced by generations of sect leaders and had already developed its own consciousness, not only providing protection but also safeguarding the privacy of the disciples.
Could it be that the Ancestor’s strength had reached the point where he could ignore the sect’s formation shielding effect?
Thinking about this, Su Qinian felt chills run down his spine.
Did that mean that all his actions of using the jade tablet to flirt around and borrow spirit stones were seen by the Ancestor?
Even though he was older, Su Qinian still blushed and sweat poured down his forehead.
“Old Su, I just calculated a divination and found that the masterminds behind these Demon Cultivators are in an ordinary town in the Eastern Continent. Right now, he is disguised as a merchant. You take some people and help me eliminate him.”
Silence in the void for a moment:
[Just now, this immortal sat alone in the Purple Micro Palace and deduced the heavenly fate, seeing the Greedy Wolf Star’s light plummeting to the mortal land of the Eastern Continent. That apricot flower ferry with curling smoke might have a “leisure person” dressed as a merchant, who holds the causal line of the thirty thousand killing calamities!]
Su Qinian was confused: “???”
“No, Ancestor, what are you saying?!”
He understood each word separately, but when put together, he was a bit lost.
Had the Ancestor’s cultivation reached such a heavenly level?
To use the Purple Micro Star as a cushion for divination?!
Silence again in the void:
[This immortal wants you to go to an ordinary town in the Eastern Continent and kill a person. This person is the mastermind behind the demon power incident!]
Su Qinian suddenly understood.
Isn’t that right?
If he said it like that, wouldn’t he understand?
“May I ask, Ancestor, what cultivation realm is this Demon Cultivator?”
[Grand Completion of Transformation Realm.]
“Si—!” Su Qinian sucked his teeth: “Ancestor, this junior is no match for this Demon Cultivator. How about you enlighten me, boosting my cultivation to Grand Completion of Transformation Realm? I’ll go straight with my sword and exterminate him!”
[Nonsense! Can’t you notify the masters of sects like Danzong and Spirit Intuition Valley to go with you? And enlightening you? This immortal wouldn’t mind airing out this sect leader’s hall for you!]
Su Qinian shrank his head and chuckled, “Yes yes yes, Ancestor, you teach well.”
He was just making a joke, not expecting the Ancestor to be so serious.
It seemed the Ancestor had a very strict character… worthy of being the peak master of Ten Thousand Swords Peak.
Then he heard the void say again:
[By the way, take Qingran with you. Let that little girl see the world, but you must wait an hour before calling her.]
Su Qinian was surprised, “Ancestor, why wait an hour?”
The void coldly humphed, then said faintly:
[Because this immortal’s disciple is sleeping. Let her sleep a little longer!]
[What? Do you have any objections?]
“I dare not…”
…
…
