Chapter 159: On Moral Decay

Bai Qiulan’s idea is truly terrifying.

Chu Ling didn’t have any strong feelings about it one way or the other.

She wasn’t exactly a saint.

She just felt that the current Bai Qiulan was making her extremely uncomfortable, like…

Like…

A long-lost figure suddenly appeared in Chu Ling’s mind.

Zeng Shuiyue!

It was true; in Chu Ling’s mind, Bai Qiulan and Zeng Shuiyue’s images overlapped infinitely, both taking on that hypocritical appearance.

How could this be?

Bai Qiulan, who had always been gentle and virtuous, like an older sister, how could she be so hypocritical?

Was all her kindness just an act?

“Chu Ling?”

Bai Qiulan looked at the silent Chu Ling and felt a jolt in her heart.

Did her words come out a bit too wrong?

“Master Bai, judging by the name of the **Feminine Extreme Yin Sutra**, it can almost be concluded that this skill can only be cultivated by women. Furthermore, the monsters have already fled the world following your earlier cleansing. It wouldn’t be easy to capture any female evil cultivators,” Chu Ling said slowly.

Bai Qiulan frowned slightly.

“Indeed, how did I not think of that? The reduction of evil cultivators is a great boon for the entire **First Heaven**, but even if there are fewer, there must still be some left,” Bai Qiulan said.

“Where?” Chu Ling asked.

Bai Qiulan knitted her brows, “I can’t really think of where right now.”

Chu Ling felt puzzled but continued to ponder.

After all, letting someone else help Bai Qiulan relieve her **Chaos Yin Poison** was preferable to her obsessing over it alone, right?

However, she still couldn’t figure out where female evil cultivators might exist.

“Forget it, forget it; if we can’t think of it, let’s just drop it. Chu Ling, I’m feeling restless up here in the mountains. Would you come with me for a walk down the mountain?” Bai Qiulan asked.

Chu Ling didn’t feel that any danger might arise.

After all, Bai Qiulan had no reason to kill her.

The two left the **Grand Dao Sect**. Outside the sect, it wasn’t exactly peaceful, but at least it was a bit more free.

Bai Qiulan led the way to a city far from the **Grand Dao Sect**.

The streets were bustling, packed with people.

Shops lined the street, and many were even setting up stalls, creating a lively, prosperous scene.

Bai Qiulan bought two sugar figurines and two sticks of candied hawthorn, handing one of each to Chu Ling; they truly looked like they were enjoying a leisurely outing.

Chu Ling also let her guard down, savoring this rare moment of relaxation.

“Master, this hairpin is so beautiful! Do you want to get one?”

Bai Qiulan smiled and nodded.

“Then let’s each get one.”

“Great! It feels like it’s been so long since I’ve strolled through the city,” Bai Qiulan sighed sentimentally.

“Right? The higher your cultivation, the further you drift from the mortal realm. Returning to see the lives of the common folk really feels different,” Chu Ling echoed.

The two were having a pretty good time.

Suddenly, soft, delicate voices reached their ears.

“Fellow Daoist, come play! Our **Pleasure Sect** just received a stunning beauty, currently dancing. In three days, we’ll also auction off her first night…”

“Fellow Daoist, we have **Musk Bull** pills here. Want to buy one? They’re super cheap, only thirty **Spirit Stones**. The best part is, you can try the pills for free here…”

“Fellow Daoist, such a strong physique, radiant with Yang energy—ah, your grace has melted my heart! Quickly come in and help alleviate my heartache!”

“Come, Daoist!”

Their charming voices were like soft caresses, drawing them in.

The two came to a halt.

Bai Qiulan looked up at the **Pleasure Sect** building, where women of all kinds were dressed in colorful attire.

The young women were all stunning and had amazing figures.

Though the **Yin-Yang Sect** had been destroyed, the **Pleasure Sect** still thrived, and without the **Yin-Yang Sect** feeding off them, it seemed to be doing even better.

People exited and entered, flowing like a river.

Chu Ling glanced at the **Pleasure Sect** and then at Bai Qiulan.

At that moment, she finally understood why Bai Qiulan had taken her out.

“This is moral decay; the atmosphere in the cultivation world has been tainted by people like these. The **Yin Yang Dao** is the purest path in heaven and earth, yet these people use its name to engage in lewd acts. Ling’er, don’t you think this is evil?” Bai Qiulan said calmly.

Chu Ling nodded.

“Yes!”

“Then let’s catch a couple and see!”

“Alright!”

No matter how powerful the **Pleasure Sect** was, strong people were still few and far between.

If they encountered a **Breaking Embryo Realm** practitioner within the **Pleasure Sect**, it would be quite an exceptional threat.

Against a **Refining Void** or **Crossing Tribulation** practitioner, they wouldn’t stand a chance to fight back.

Soon, an elder from the **Pleasure Sect** and the new courtesan with the stunning beauty were both captured.

The two did not return to the **Grand Dao Sect**.

Chu Ling watched Bai Qiulan mercilessly threaten the two.

She stood above, scolding them for corrupting the cultivation world.

What could these two do?

Bai Qiulan’s cultivation level was too high; merely releasing a hint of her presence made them feel unbearable terror deep in their souls.

In order to survive,

they began to practice the **Feminine Extreme Yin Sutra**.

Chu Ling’s mind was still spinning.

Wasn’t it said that only Yue Hongling knew the content of the **Feminine Extreme Yin Sutra**? How could Bai Qiulan also know it…

Watching Bai Qiulan teach the two step by step,

the skill really wasn’t that difficult; within just six days, the elder of the **Pleasure Sect** at the **Breaking Embryo Realm** had already succeeded in her cultivation.

“Ling’er, help me guard,” Bai Qiulan said.

Chu Ling took a deep breath.

“Okay!”

At this point, she fully understood Bai Qiulan’s character.

Under coercion, the elder of the **Pleasure Sect** practiced the **Feminine Extreme Yin Sutra**. She had no idea what kind of skill this was, but even though these two didn’t look like bad people, all she could do was hope they truly weren’t.

This cultivation method wasn’t lethal at all.

The **Feminine Extreme Yin Sutra** operated.

The hands of the **Pleasure Sect** elder slapped onto Bai Qiulan’s body.

In that instant, the **Pleasure Sect** elder let out a scream.

Her soul couldn’t withstand even a second; under the **Yin Power**, she was instantly scattered into the void.

Bai Qiulan had just begun to pour **Chaos Yin Poison** into that gap, and it had already vanished.

She opened her eyes and looked at the elder, now an ice sculpture.

Her expression turned pale.

Other people’s souls couldn’t endure…

At that moment, Bai Qiulan became completely lost.

The last resort she had thought of, one that had crossed her moral boundaries, had officially failed.

To ease her **Chaos Yin Poison**, she needed those who had once reached the level of the **Great Emperor of Covering Heaven**, whose souls were resilient enough to withstand the **Chaos Yin Poison**’s assault.

Chu Ling sighed.

“Sister Bai, teach me the **Feminine Extreme Yin Sutra**…”

Bai Qiulan’s dazed eyes transformed into disbelief.

“I’ve figured it out. Helping you alleviate the **Yin Power** is indeed agonizing, but your ascension is just around the corner. Right now, all I want is to follow in your footsteps. Even if it means enduring endless pain, as long as I can improve, I’m willing.”

Chu Ling ultimately compromised.

Let’s just say… she was returning Bai Qiulan’s favor for saving her life.
