Chapter 93. The Underworld’s Plan

Because Mu Yiting said she wouldn’t eat pigeon, Lin Nuo ignored her. After all, she was the beloved goddess of the Xuanyun Sect, but Mu Yiting was being hypocritical, claiming no killing and no eating within the sect. However, Qin Shili was different; she wanted to try the roasted pigeon Lin Nuo made, completely disregarding the no-kill rule. To her surprise, the roasted pigeon was unexpectedly delicious.

Mu Yiting initially observed Lin Nuo, but she ended up being lured in by the delicious roasted pigeon and was served a mouthful of dog food from the two.

As a popular female cultivator of the Xuanyun Sect, how did she end up alone, watching these two be all lovey-dovey?

What a disgrace.

But she had to endure the shame; at least this time she gained some valuable information. It turned out these two weren’t as rumored; they actually shared a peculiar bond.

Mu Yiting flashed a sweet smile, putting on an inquisitive demeanor: “Senior Brother, Senior Sister, your relationship seems pretty good, did Senior Brother win over Senior Sister and you two became a couple?”

“Are your eyes okay? I have a good relationship with her?”

Lin Nuo, with pigeon meat in his mouth, replied grumpily. Meanwhile, Qin Shili handed him a handkerchief, which he absentmindedly took and wiped his mouth.

“Isn’t this a good relationship? You seem quite in sync.”

Mu Yiting laughed awkwardly; their unspoken connection resembled that of long-time partners, though the two were a bit expressionless.

Her conviction strengthened; these two definitely had an extraordinary relationship, perhaps they had already become a couple.

Now this was trouble. These two tricky individuals had actually teamed up as a couple, making it harder to deal with them in the future.

But she was still confident; she’d find a way to handle them.

After finishing the roasted pigeon, Lin Nuo let out a long sigh of contentment. Roasting pigeons on Tianling Mountain was simply refreshing.

“So, what did you come here for?” Lin Nuo asked Qin Shili.

“Isn’t this something you should have asked when I first arrived?”

“Oh, I forgot. Is it still timely to ask now?”

“Master has ordered, I’m here to train you.”

“I refuse.”

Lin Nuo quickly got up. Training with a seventh-tier boss? No way! That could lead to his demise.

He extinguished the fire, washed his mouth by the riverbank, and quickly grabbed the box containing Meat Floss Cake to run away.

Qin Shili also got up, following Lin Nuo. She didn’t use force to compel him but merely stuck close, like a persistent shadow. With her high cultivation, even if Lin Nuo was a wind elemental boy, he couldn’t outrun her.

Previously, Lin Nuo had dreams of being chased by Qin Shili, and now it had unexpectedly come true after he became a villain!

But all he was doing was quietly cultivating a dark magic technique.

As Lin Nuo and Qin Shili walked away, in Mu Yiting’s view, they were all lovey-dovey and acting flirty.

How despicable!

Mu Yiting vowed to remember today’s humiliation and would definitely make those two pay in the future.

Endure the shame, gather strength!

【I should continue sending messages; I can leave here soon and return to my family.】

Mu Yiting kept thinking about going back; she truly didn’t want to keep pretending to be a good girl, feeling disgusted with these righteous disciples.

She’d be home soon; her family would soon rise again.

On Tianling Mountain, there were other carrier pigeons. Mu Yiting called them over, imbued them with information, performed a secret technique, and then sent them off flying.

This time she specifically directed the pigeons to fly in the opposite direction from where Lin Nuo had left, to avoid him roasting them again.

……

In Wujun, within a grand estate, there was a dimly lit secret chamber.

Inside were two men; one stood before a map, hands clasped behind his back, while kneeling behind him was another man.

“How is it going?” the standing man asked in a heavy voice.

The kneeling man responded respectfully:

“Reporting, my lord, I have retrieved the medicinal materials and treasures from the Xuanyun Sect, as well as the ‘Heavenly Rainbow Secret Method’ and the secret realm map. With the information from the four Mu sisters, the family’s resurgence is just around the corner.”

“Good. Since we have what we need, she no longer holds any value. Keeping her around would only mean sharing the credit with us.”

“Reporting, my lord, I have already devised a clever plan. Not only can it kill her, but it can also eliminate the disciples of the Xuanyun Sect. Their new generation of strength will be wiped out, and it’s only a matter of time before the Xuanyun Sect declines.”

“Oh? I’d like to hear your clever plan.”

The man called “my lord” turned around, stroking his beard, showing interest in this. Killing that little girl Mu Yiting and the Xuanyun Sect’s disciples would be a monumental accomplishment. If successful, he would surely secure a place in the family.

“My lord, please take a look.”

At this moment, the kneeling man pulled out a black stone from his pocket.

The standing man examined it with considerable interest.

“This is… Black Scale Stone? Do you intend to blow them up? The Black Scale Stone is not easily triggered, and how would you escape once it blows?”

“My lord, you can rest assured. I have become a trusted alchemist of theirs. During the alchemy class, I’ll slip the Black Scale Stone into that girl’s furnace, and when the time is right, I’ll make my exit. Once the furnace reaches high temperatures, combined with the spiritual energy from her spell, it will surely detonate the Black Scale Stone, killing everyone.”

The man expressed his confidence.
