Ye Qinghan thought to herself, as expected, Su Cheng didn’t guess wrong—it was Cheng Liang’s doing!
“Did Cheng Liang mention what comes next? I don’t have that much time to waste on that useless thing!”
“Y-Yes, Sect Master Cheng said, as long as Su Cheng is killed, you’ll be able to be with him.”
“Hmph, what is he? I possess the Fox Demon King Bloodline, a reincarnated Demon Emperor. Did he really think I couldn’t see through his petty tricks?”
Ye Qinghan just spouted nonsense. Since everyone says she carries the air of an Emperor, then fine—she would stop pretending! She was done hiding!
“He just wants to sleep with me? Hah, he should take a look in the mirror first. Does he deserve it?”
“Yes, yes, the immortal lady is right.”
At this moment, Qiao Yun couldn’t even tell who the real boss was anymore, but he knew one thing for sure—he couldn’t afford to offend this woman! A reincarnated Demon Emperor—no wonder one strike nearly annihilated his entire Tranquil Cloud Sect, and even he himself was seriously injured…
What Qiao Yun didn’t know was that if Ye Qinghan hadn’t wanted to ask more questions, that earlier Heaven-Crushing Tablet would’ve wiped them all out in a flash…
“That bastard dared to covet my body? He’ll die sooner or later!”
“Absolutely! The immortal lady speaks the truth!”
“So he still plans to send someone to kill Su Cheng?” Ye Qinghan narrowed her eyes and asked coldly.
“Yes, Cheng Liang is deeply infatuated with you. To kill Su Cheng, he’ll stop at nothing.”
“Good. This kind of thing isn’t suitable for me to handle personally. Killing one’s master brings no benefit to one’s Cultivation Level.”
Ye Qinghan found it quite entertaining. Whatever nonsense this man was thinking, at least his mouth was being honest enough.
“Naturally. How could an immortal lady be tainted with the karma of master-slaying?”
“Who has Cheng Liang arranged this time? Is it reliable? If they mess it up again, I won’t mind wiping out another sect.”
Just one glance from Ye Qinghan made a Nascent Soul Realm sect master tremble uncontrollably…
Qiao Yun didn’t doubt her words at all. The Tranquil Cloud Sect might as well already be wiped out, and this kind of slaughter from the immortal lady seemed effortless.
“The Liu family.”
“Hmm. I see.”
“If the immortal lady is willing to give me another chance, I am willing to go personally this time. I will not disappoint you.”
At this moment, Qiao Yun seemed to see hope. If the destruction of Tranquil Cloud Sect was already set in stone, then wasn’t this immortal lady standing before him his opportunity?
Ye Qinghan glanced at Qiao Yun and smiled.
“Hmph, I could give you one more chance.”
“Thank you, immortal lady.”
“Next life, be smarter. Don’t make this kind of mistake again.”
Before Qiao Yun could react, Ye Qinghan had already flown away.
In an instant, another Heaven-Crushing Tablet fell from the sky… This chapter is updated first at g.com.
Compared to the previous one, this one was more than twice the size…
Qiao Yun’s pupils shrank sharply—this time, he was truly finished…
Ten minutes later, once the dust had settled, Ye Qinghan returned to sweep the battlefield. She wanted everything valuable!
But at that moment, she felt a little disappointed. She should’ve asked Master if there were any gentler Immortal Techniques. All the valuable treasures had been smashed!
All the expensive vases, antique scrolls—smashed to pieces by the Heaven-Crushing Tablet…
She did collect quite a few natural treasures and storage rings, but Su Cheng didn’t care for those!
The only thing missing was money. What now?!
Returning empty-handed was not an option—Master definitely wouldn’t be pleased!
Ye Qinghan couldn’t bother with that anymore!
The next day, the Heavenly Dao Pavilion received news of the Tranquil Cloud Sect.
“What did you just say?” Cheng Liang was stunned. The Tranquil Cloud Sect might not be a top-tier sect, but it wasn’t some back-alley sect either. And now, it had vanished overnight.
“The other party was extremely ruthless. Nothing remains of Tranquil Cloud Sect…” Lu Cheng said with regret, though his eyes were filled with curiosity.
“No, what do you mean by ‘vanished’?”
“I mean completely gone…”
“That was still a proper sect. How could it just vanish?”
“Yes, Sect Master. I went to inspect personally. That entire plot of land is now bare—not even a single corpse remains…”
Cheng Liang leaned forward, face buried in his hands. After a long sigh, he raised a hand and pressed on his temples, massaging the acupuncture point between his eyes…
After completing a full round of eye exercises, Cheng Liang was silent for a long time. “Are you serious?”
“Yes, only a few pillars and the foundation are left…”
“What do you think happened?”
“I wouldn’t dare make a reckless conclusion, but if it was a grudge killing, they wouldn’t have taken the buildings too, right?”
At that moment, someone came from outside the hall and whispered something into the Second Elder’s ear…
“Sect Master, now I think it’s very likely a grudge killing… I fear it was Ye Qinghan, the one you’ve been thinking about…”
“Qiao Yun was in the mid-Nascent Soul Realm. How could Ye Qinghan possibly be a match for him?”
“My men saw the artificial hill that used to stand outside the main hall of Tranquil Cloud Sect for sale in the marketplace. It was sold by a very beautiful woman at a low price.”
Cheng Liang felt his head swelling…
“Wardrobes, tables… even the glazed tiles from the roof are now in the market… everyone says a beautiful woman sold them cheaply, saying she was in urgent need of money and wouldn’t have sold them otherwise…” Read the latest chapters at novelping . com.
“This damned fox… is a little beyond what I anticipated…”
Another round of eye exercises. This Ye Qinghan…
“And that’s not even the worst part…”
Cheng Liang picked up a teacup and took a sip. He figured there was nothing left that could surprise him now…
“Go on.”
Lu Cheng had a dark expression, as if he couldn’t even imagine what Qiao Yun must’ve done to provoke such a living King of Hell.
“Ye Qinghan may have even dug up Qiao Yun’s ancestral tomb. The burial goods were all sold… even the bracelet his wife was buried with is now in the market…”
PFFT!
Cheng Liang spat out his tea—every last drop!
“What on earth has Su Cheng been teaching Ye Qinghan?!”
Cheng Liang truly couldn’t hold it in anymore! Just how broke was Su Cheng?! Did he send his disciple out to loot houses?
Looting was one thing! Selling an artificial hill was one thing! Even the glazed roof tiles?!
Fine! Let’s say you’re short on money!
But you even robbed the grave of someone’s dead wife?! You took her bracelet too?!
Ye Qinghan isn’t even human, fine! But you, Su Cheng—you’re even worse!
Meanwhile, at the Soaring Immortal Hall, Ye Qinghan returned just as dawn broke.
She had just opened her mouth to speak when she saw Su Cheng practicing with a spear in the courtyard.
That spear must be the God-Slaying Spear.
Ye Qinghan was amazed. Even without Cultivation Level, her master could wield the long spear so handsomely.
Each movement flowed smoothly into the next, like a well-rehearsed dance. Even dressed in a long robe, he still carried the air of a military general.
Her master was always like this. On horseback, he exuded the style of a warrior general. Seated in the hall, he had the grace of a scholar. Whatever role he played, he did it with perfection!
“Qinghan, you’re back.”
Su Cheng had already heard the system broadcast. Ye Qinghan had wiped out the entire Tranquil Cloud Sect, yet it had taken her all night to return.
“Mm. These are the natural treasures collected from Tranquil Cloud Sect, and also the money Qinghan earned…”
“Those don’t matter. As long as you’re safe, that’s enough. Now that you’re back, I’ll go rest for a while…”
“If there are any treasures you like, keep them. If not, just toss them in a room somewhere. I’ll deal with them when I wake up.”
“As for the money you earned, no need to report it. You’re in charge of finances now—you decide.”
