After Demoness Ji’s words, Su Zimo had a new understanding and impression towards her and fiend sects.
Just like immortals and Buddha, fiends had a Dao of their own.
After pondering for a while, Su Zimo suddenly thought of sothing and asked, “A few months ago, I t a cultivator in a spirit mine with ruthless thods. He massacred an entire city of living beings and uses a vile cultivation technique that can suck a living person into a dry corpse. Is he soone from the fiend sects?”
“From what I know, there’s no such cultivation technique in the fiend sects,” Demoness Ji shook her head.
She paused for a mont and continued, “The reason why the reputation of fiend sects is bad in the cultivation world is all because of you people from the orthodox path. As long as it’s sothing that goes against humanity, you guys accuse us of the fiend sects for it. It’s truly despicable!”
“If it’s not done by the fiend sects, you guys can co forth and explain yourselves,” Su Zimo frowned.
“Fufu.”
Demoness Ji scoffed coldly, “There’s no way the fiend sects will do that. Demons have their pride.”
She thought for a mont and said, “A senior in the fiend sects once gave an example to describe the difference between immortals and demons. I think it’s rather apt.”
“For the sa treasure, cultivators of the fiend sects would fight for it openly. However, cultivators of immortal sects would vie for it in secret and fra it onto those of the fiend sects.”
“That’s a little extre.”
Su Zimo shook his head. “I don’t wish to argue with you anymore.”
With that, Su Zimo turned to leave.
Demoness Ji followed him again. But this ti round, Su Zimo did not chase her away.
“Where are you going?” She asked.
Su Zimo remained silent for a while before replying, “Back ho to take a look.”
...
As Su Zimo sped towards the capital of Yan Country, more than ten cultivators arrived at a small town on the border of Yan Country.
They were led by a man and woman.
The man wore sparkling white robes. He had a smile on his face, looking handso and elegant.
The woman was dressed in a long, erald dress. Her black hair swayed in the wind and she had beautiful features, looking gentle and quiet.
The both of them rode on their swords and their clothes fluttered in the wind. Like a match made in heaven, they were dazzling and could not be ignored.
More importantly, both of them were at perfected Foundation Establishnt realm!
The ten odd cultivators that followed them were all Foundation Establishnt Cultivators as well, varying from early to late-stage.
On their waists hung a badge with the words ‘Iridescent Clouds’.
It was dayti at the mont with many citizens walking on the streets. Their expressions changed starkly with the sudden appearance of the many Foundation Establishnt Cultivators above them.
The citizens hurriedly knelt on the ground and shouted, “Greetings, immortals!”
Soone in the crowd with sharp eyes recognized the gentle woman and whispered, “It’s that girl from the Shen family!”
“It’s really her! I wouldn’t have been able to tell if you hadn’t said it. She’s changed drastically after four years. She’s just like a fairy now!”
“Shh! Shut up! Stop looking at her! She’s an immortal now! If you anger her, she’s going to gouge out your eyeballs!”
The gentle woman in the erald dress was none other than Shen ngqi who was taken away by Perfected Being Cang Lang four years earlier to join Iridescent Clouds Palace.
The white robed cultivator beside her was her senior brother, Xu You.
“So this is your ho, junior sister?” Xu You looked at Shen ngqi beside him with a gentle gaze and asked softly.
“I see.”
She seed distracted as she responded. Looking at the small town beneath her, she sighed in a dazed manner, letting out a reminiscing expression.
Unknowingly, four years had passed.
Four years ago, she stood with Perfected Being Cang Lang in midair looking at Ping Yang Town the sa way.
However, that afternoon, a stubborn youth stood with his chest puffed and head held high on this familiar long street. He did not kneel nor fear.
At the thought of that youth, Shen ngqi smiled faintly.
Right after, she sighed gently and shook her head.
No matter what, immortals and mortals were different – she was no longer on the sa level as that youth.
Decades later, her youth would still be present and she would be in her pri. However, that youth would have entered his later years and await death of old age.
Even though they had unforgettable mories together, that could only fade and disappear along with ti.
“Junior sister, junior sister?”
Xu You’s voice pulled Shen ngqi back from her mories.
“Ah, sorry,” She replied apologetically, neither too intimate nor unfriendly.
Xu You was considered as one of the top ten inner sect disciples of Iridescent Clouds Palace. He had courted her for a long ti, but she never agreed to it.
She made the decision to return ho for a visit in a low profile. However, Xu You volunteered to accompany her and brought more than ten juniors along.
Before long, Shen ngqi and the others descended at the Shen residence.
She only had a single kin – her brother, Shen Nan.
The Shen family had changed drastically. Even though the Zhao and Li families were eradicated and removed from Ping Yang Town, Shen Nan had benefited greatly from following the two families in the past. As such, he had long expanded into a luxurious mansion.
Because of Su Xiaoning’s kidnapping incident back then, Su Zimo went on a killing spree and killed many people, except Shen Nan.
Even so, Shen Nan did not dare to continue being brazen.
After all, Su Hong’s confernt as king happened in Ping Yang Town. Although no one knew what was going on behind the scenes, everyone witnessed the outco.
“ngqi?”
When Shen Nan caught sight of Shen ngqi, he was rooted on the spot with a look of disbelief.
“Brother, it’s ,” Shen ngqi smiled and nodded.
“It’s good that you’re back, it’s good.”
Facing more than ten Foundation Establishnt Cultivators from Iridescent Clouds Palace, Shen Nan’s heart was trembling with fear. He looked uneasy as he remarked with a smile.
From Shen ngqi, Shen Nan could feel an unfamiliar aura.
It was as though their relationship through blood had faded after she entered the path of immortality.
“The family has changed quite drastically.”
Shen ngqi walked around the Shen residence casually with a smile. Shen Nan followed behind her, not daring to walk in front.
After walking around, Shen ngqi asked in a seemingly casual manner, “Shen Nan, are the four major families of Ping Yang Town still around? Such as the Su family?”
“Ah?”
Shen Nan froze for a mont and shook his head with a strange expression on his face. “N-Not anymore.”
“The Su family is not around anymore?”
Shen ngqi stopped in her tracks and suddenly turned around, frowning.
“Yeah, they’re all gone.”
Shen Nan nodded and related everything that happened four years ago.
Shen ngqi listened intently.
“That Su Zimo must have taken on an expert in the pugilistic world as his master. His strength grew by leaps and bounds and he destroyed the Zhao and Li families almost singlehandedly!”
Shen Nan glanced at Shen ngqi. “However, he did not kill . I think it’s on account of your relationship.”
Shen ngqi did not reply.
She knew very well why Su Zimo did not kill Shen Nan. Even though it had sothing to do with her, it was definitely not because of their relationship!
“Junior sister, who is that Su Zimo? Where is he now?”
At the side, Xu You could vaguely tell that Su Zimo seed to have a close relationship with Shen ngqi in the past. Because of that, he was long frustrated and asked with a scowl.
