This was a resplendent palace.
Thin gauze curtains fluttered, offering glimpses of a graceful figure swaying gently. Behind a thin beaded curtain, a lithe woman lay lazily on a large red bed, her gossar robes half-undone. Through the undulating curtain, occasional glimpses of endless allure escaped, stirring irresistible and forbidden desires in any onlooker.
Venerable Yu Jiao was one of the Elders of the Hehuan Sect and the master of the Jade Belt Fairy. Her Cultivation Level had reached the Nascent Soul Realm many years ago. By now, she was at least a sixth-layer Nascent Soul Realm existence, with a mastery of vast Divine Skills. Her connections were boundless, and her friends were countless.
For instance, sharing the palace with her at this very mont were three other Venerable-level beings: the Seventh Elder of the Ghost King Sect, Venerable Golden Lion of the Devil Race, and Venerable Red Tiger of the Devil Race.
The Seventh Elder of the Ghost King Sect was a gaunt, middle-aged man with a sinister gaze. He wore a black robe and was shrouded in an oppressively thick Yin energy.
Venerable Golden Lion, in his human form, stood nine feet tall. He had a robust and imposing physique, and his curly golden hair was spread casually over his shoulders, exuding an intense pressure that inspired both awe and fear.
Venerable Red Tiger’s transford build was comparable to Venerable Golden Lion’s. He sat imposingly on a stone chair like a small mountain, his bare torso covered in tattoos. The "King" character etched on his forehead radiated a mighty presence.
Behind the two Devil Race Venerables stood two tall, young won massaging their shoulders and legs. Dressed in sexy, leopard-print miniskirts, their long, muscular legs and every alluring movent were a testant to their charm.
"As expected of Venerable Yu Jiao," Venerable Golden Lion said, his face full of admiration. "These leopard-girls have beco much more sensible after your training. Thank you!"
Venerable Red Tiger also clasped his fists. "Thank you, Venerable Yu Jiao."
However, although they expressed their thanks, the gazes the two Devil Race Venerables directed at Venerable Yu Jiao grew increasingly covetous.
If this Human Race Enchantress could transform originally naive leopard-girls into vivacious, leopard-print-clad beauties in just a few months, one can only imagine how skilled she is herself. The thought alone of spending a night with Venerable Yu Jiao is delightful!
Unfortunately, this scheming minx understood the principle that what you can’t have is what you desire most. She had always kept them hooked and dangling, sending them many of her disciples but never personally involving herself.
As for forcing her? Aside from the Hehuan Sect’s esteed position within the Demonic Path, which few demons or devils dared to rashly offend, Venerable Yu Jiao’s own Cultivation Level and combat strength were by no ans inferior to those of Venerable Golden Lion and Venerable Red Tiger. In a real fight, she might even gain the upper hand with her Magical Treasures.
Therefore, to have a chance to "sit and discuss the Dao" with Venerable Yu Jiao, they had to transform from proud lions and tigers into humble grovelers.
From behind the beaded curtain ca the gentle voice of Venerable Yu Jiao. "We are all family here, Brother Lion, Brother Tiger. There’s no need for such courtesy. Representing the Hehuan Sect here in Vermilion Bird City, I am alone and my power is limited. I have been deeply indebted to your help over the years. Words cannot express my gratitude."
"It was a trivial effort, hardly worth ntioning," the Seventh Elder of the Ghost King Sect laughed, a chilling cackle escaping his lips. "KEKEKEKE, Venerable Yu Jiao, you wouldn’t have called us here in such a grand manner just to reminisce, would you?"
"The Seventh Elder is refreshingly direct. For that, I am grateful," Venerable Yu Jiao said. "To be honest, I’ve invited you all here because I have been wronged. I was hoping my elder brothers would back up."
She let out a soft, pitiful sob.
No man could withstand a woman’s coquettish pleas, and if he could, it only ant the woman wasn’t charming enough. As an Elder of the Hehuan Sect, her seductive arts were honed to perfection. Every frown, every smile, every word, and every action carried a boundless allure that could instantly go to a man’s head.
The Seventh Elder of the Ghost King Sect, a practitioner of the Ghost Path’s secret arts, managed to remain sowhat composed. But the nearby Venerable Golden Lion and Venerable Red Tiger, as mbers of the Devil Race who cultivated the power of qi and blood, were naturally impulsive and hot-headed.
Seeing Venerable Yu Jiao looking so aggrieved and pitiable, they slamd their thighs and stood up. "Who dares to bully our Sister Yu Jiao? Are they seeking death?"
"Sister Yu Jiao! If there’s anything I can do to help, just say the word."
Venerable Yu Jiao said, "Three months ago, by a stroke of good fortune, I found a piece of Taiyin Jade Marrow. It has the wondrous effects of nourishing yin, restoring yang, and preserving one’s beauty and vitality.
"However, I was discovered by Venerable Wuji of the Zhenwu Immortal Sect. He is an existence at the seventh layer of the Nascent Soul Realm. How could I possibly stand against him? I had no choice but to plead with him to show rcy.
"Unexpectedly, though Venerable Wuji claid to be from the Righteous Sects, he turned out to be a despicable villain. Not only did he steal my jade marrow, but he also tried to dishonor .
"I had to detonate several of my life-saving Magic Artifacts just to escape from his clutches, and even then, I was gravely injured. After several months of recuperation, I only recently made a full recovery."
Venerable Yu Jiao’s voice was thick with resentnt. "I cannot rest until this vengeance is mine. I implore my three elder brothers to help kill Venerable Wuji and reclaim the Taiyin Jade Marrow. If this is accomplished, I will be sure to offer... a very generous reward!"
Taiyin Jade Marrow? A treasure condensed from Yin Energy, it was extrely precious and an irresistible treasure for countless female cultivators. Its value was enough to make most Venerables salivate with desire.
After listening to Venerable Yu Jiao’s tale, the Seventh Elder of the Ghost King Sect and the two Devil Race Venerables wore thoughtful expressions. They were no fools and would not believe everything they were told.
Nevertheless, the Zhenwu Immortal Sect was well-known within the Righteous Path for hating evil with a passion, and they were indeed the mortal enemies of the various demonic and devilish powers. This Venerable Wuji, in particular, took great pleasure in slaying demons and devils. Stationed in Limitless City in Nanzhou, he had nearly eradicated all fiends and ghosts within a radius of hundreds of miles.
Venerable Golden Lion and Venerable Red Tiger had also had conflicts with this Venerable Wuji in the past and would be more than happy to see him dead. Now that Venerable Yu Jiao was preparing to make a move against him, Golden Lion and Red Tiger were happy to do her a favor. After all, helping her this ti might just be their ticket into her bed.
Venerable Golden Lion smiled. "Sister Yu Jiao, what’s your plan? We’ll follow your lead!"
Venerable Yu Jiao said, "Venerable Wuji presides over Limitless City with nine Golden Core Stage disciples under his command, so his power is considerable.
"Three months ago, I sent my most talented disciple to infiltrate Limitless City and ’encounter’ his favorite junior disciple. By now, that boy is so smitten he can’t pull himself free. I’ve even managed to trick him into giving the defense layout of Limitless City.
"If you elder brothers are willing to help, in two days, I will lead the disciples of the Hehuan Sect to coordinate with my agent inside and eliminate all the alert points.
"At that ti, I will ask the three of you to help set up the Heaven Deceiving Formation to cover the entirety of Limitless City and begin a gluttonous feast."
Her voice was tinged with fanaticism. She chuckled, "Limitless City has a population of five million. If you brothers are willing to help get my revenge, the flesh and blood of these five million humans will belong to Brother Lion and Brother Tiger.
"As for the five million souls, the male souls will go to the Seventh Elder, and the female souls will go to . The city’s many other resources will be distributed according to the effort each party contributes. How does that sound?"
Five million! It was an unimaginably massive number, a temptation that even Nascent Soul Stage Venerables would find difficult to resist.
After a mont of silence, the Seventh Elder of the Ghost King Sect, Venerable Golden Lion, and Venerable Red Tiger all agreed to the operation. They stated they would bring their most elite subordinates to jointly besiege Limitless City.
...
BANG.
The vision shattered, and the soul of the Jade Belt Fairy turned to ash. Only a final speck of her True Spirit remained, re-entering Reincarnation, though its chances of a good rebirth were slim.
Limitless City. The fates of five million common people decided so casually, as if they were just carving up a cake?
Wang Xiu took a deep breath, a dense, murderous intent erupting in his eyes. These bastards... they all deserve to die!
