Chapter 295 Junior Sister Gets Closer, Saintess Abdicates Overnight?
Mo Chengyue carefully folded the half-carved talisman and put it into a hidden pocket close to his body, then carefully placed the Feather Scripture Jade Slip close to his body.
He stretched lazily, listening to the occasional chirping of insects outside the window.
The exhaustion that followed the life-or-death struggle then surged up like a tide.
He lay flat on the simple wooden bed, his hands folded over his abdomen.
The newly generated true essence within his body, driven by the Feather Scripture, was still circulating slowly and spontaneously, continuously nourishing the bruises inflicted by Xie Buci.
The mask that always wore a fawning smile was completely removed under the cover of night.
He revealed a calmness and composure that he only displayed when he was absolutely alone.
Mo Chengyue didn't have any grand ambitions to dominate the cultivation world; he just wanted to survive in this cruel world of cultivation.
To live long enough to have the absolute ability to protect oneself in this dark forest, to live long enough to be able to lie comfortably in the sun.
He closed his eyes, but his mind became unusually active.
That array, originating from the ruins, can not only be used on oneself, but can also be fed back to one's partner through the array connection.
The moment this thought crossed his mind, Mo Chengyue's breathing slowed down considerably.
He recalled how he had used the spirit pool and the remnant array to cure Lin Miaoyin's love poison in that cramped cave in the ruins.
If the principles of the Feather Scripture could be integrated into the upgraded Yin-Yang Virtue Harmony Array.
Then he can perfectly solve the problem of the absorbed spiritual energy being impure and mottled.
This means that as long as he doesn't actively provoke trouble.
By simply maintaining his existing cooperative relationship with those powerful female cultivators, his cultivation level can steadily increase.
This is the ultimate level of being a kept man.
He smiled with satisfaction, which aggravated the injury near his eye, causing him to gasp in pain.
But this did not affect his pleasant mood at the moment.
The night breeze outside the window rustled through the bamboo leaves.
Even the violent demonic energy emanating from the iron tree pavilion next door seemed much more palatable.
-
The morning mist, carrying the unique moisture of the mountains and forests, permeated the mountain paths of Hehuan Sect.
Mo Chengyue used his wide sleeves to cover the bruise on the corner of his left eye.
He slowly walked up the dew-covered bluestone steps toward the scripture pavilion.
A cacophony of voices could be heard nearby.
Several young disciples dressed in outer sect attire were whispering among themselves in the pavilion at the crossroads.
Passerby A lowered his voice and said.
"Have you heard? That guy from Zizhu Peak sent a note to the council hall last night."
Passerby B shook his head in disbelief.
"How could we not have heard? The news spread throughout the inner sect in the middle of the night."
"That is our Hehuan Sect's highly respected Holy Maiden. She has gone to great lengths to secure that position."
Passerby C also stepped forward to add the gossip he had just heard.
"This is what they mean by 'Man proposes, God disposes'."
"So many people died in those immortal and demonic ruins, it's already a blessing from our ancestors that the Holy Maiden was able to return alive."
"I guess she must have suffered irreversible injuries in the ruins, and couldn't even maintain her original level of power."
Mo Chengyue listened to those pointless guesses.
He walked quickly past the pavilion with his head down.
In his heart, however, he scoffed at the speculations of these people.
He personally witnessed Lin Miaoyin's abundant blood and energy on the flying boat yesterday.
That woman's cultivation level had already been stabilized at the peak of the late Core Formation stage through the power of dual cultivation.
He's only one opportunity away from reaching the Nascent Soul stage.
She voluntarily relinquished the coveted throne of sainthood.
They are definitely plotting something bigger.
When Mo Chengyue stepped onto the threshold of the second floor of the Sutra Repository.
His honest, unassuming face immediately gave off a harmless, wry smile.
Lin Wanqing was already waiting by her private worktable by the window.
She changed into a light yellow fitted long dress today.
Her ponytail drew a beautiful arc in the air with her hurried steps.
"Senior Brother Mo, why are you so late today?"
"Please sit down and try the Jade Snow Spirit Tea that I just got."
Lin Wanqing deftly pushed a warm teacup to Mo Chengyue's side.
Mo Chengyue sat down and picked up a teacup to warm his hands.
"Don't even mention it."
"I wasn't looking where I was going last night and bumped into a tree."
He made up a lie to cover up the injuries on his face.
"Junior sister is so excited so early in the morning, is there some earth-shattering gossip again?"
Mo Chengyue continued the conversation, following the other person's lead.
Lin Wanqing looked around.
He confirmed that the disciples around him who were reading the classics were all far away.
She then pulled over a bamboo chair and sat down close to Mo Chengyue.
A faint, sweet fragrance of lilies wafted over.
"Senior brother, you've come to the right person this time."
"Just as dawn broke today, Lin Miaoyin from Zizhu Peak personally went to the main hall of the peak."
"In front of the sect leader and all the peak masters, she solemnly requested to relinquish the position of Holy Maiden."
Lin Wanqing's eyes were wide open, her small face filled with a thirst for knowledge.
Mo Chengyue blew away the tender green tea leaves floating on the teacup.
He then feigned surprise.
"How is that possible?"
"In order to win the position of Saintess, Senior Sister Lin defeated the geniuses of the twelve peaks in succession with the Heavenly Demon Dance."
"The title of the peerless barefoot enchantress was earned through sheer strength."
"With her personality that so craves respectability and is extremely narcissistic, how could she bear to give up such supreme glory?"
Lin Wanqing nodded repeatedly in agreement with Mo Chengyue's opinion.
"Yes."
"No one in the sect understands why she did this."
Even the sect leader Jiang Wei advised her to think twice before acting.
"But Senior Sister Lin was very determined, even going so far as to make a vow to her inner demons to show her determination to step down."
"The higher-ups discussed the matter in the main hall for two whole hours, and finally, after weighing the pros and cons, they granted her request."
Lin Wanqing spilled out the core intelligence she had gathered.
Mo Chengyue took a sip of the spiritual tea.
The warm tea flowed down my throat and into my stomach, bringing a sense of comfort.
His brain began to work at high speed, piecing together these fragmented clues into a complete picture of the power shift.
This woman truly deserves her reputation as a top-tier seductress who climbed her way up from the bottom.
This person has a truly shrewd eye for political maneuvering.
The news that Ye Wushang died in the ruins will soon be impossible to keep secret.
Without its leader, the Tianqing Peak faction is bound to turn into a pack of mad dogs that bite indiscriminately.
In addition, the major demonic sects suffered heavy losses of their elites in the ruins, and the situation outside was extremely tense.
The title of Holy Maiden of the Hehuan Sect is no honor at all; it is a shining target.
"Senior brother."
"You read a lot of books, so can you analyze this for me? What exactly is Senior Sister Lin up to?"
Lin Wanqing gently nudged Mo Chengyue's arm with her elbow.
This brought Mo Chengyue, who was still deep in thought, back to reality.
Mo Chengyue put down his teacup.
He pulled out a tattered scroll of array formations from under the table and spread it out in front of him.
"This is actually a brilliant move that puts you in a do-or-die situation."
"The fall of the Night Saint is a foregone conclusion."
"There is a huge gap in the high-end combat power of the younger generation in the Hehuan Sect."
