"Nangong... Nanxie!"
As these words left his lips, Fairy Xifeng’s complexion changed drastically.
In the Northwest Region eighty years ago, the na Nanxie was enough to make people pale with fear.
Nangong Haoqin was originally the leader of a small, unknown sect in the Northwest.
Yet, no one knew where he obtained a Yin Gathering Skill that could replenish yang with yin.
In just three short years, he rose from an obscure sect no one had ever heard of.
To beco the largest sect in the entire Northwest.
The entire Nangong Sect, under his command, learned the art of gathering yin to replenish yang.
During the twenty years of rampant actions by the Nangong Sect, countless won were reduced to their playthings.
Those who were ravaged were eventually left as nothing but dried corpses.
Their essence and blood were transford into Heavenly Gang Energy using the Evil Skill.
When you looked over the entire sect, it was filled with formidable experts.
One could say, behind the success of the Nangong clan,
Was a hell built on the corpses of won.
Such wicked conduct naturally made them a target for the Martial Alliance’s crusade.
This joint operation took place sixty years ago.
The Martial Alliance assembled three thousand Martial Artists and engaged in a fierce and bloody battle with the Nangong Sect.
At that ti, Fairy Xifeng was also one of the participants.
Until the entire Nangong Sect was completely annihilated.
Of the three thousand Martial Artists, less than a hundred survived.
After such a bloody battle, even sixty years later, Fairy Xifeng would not forget.
Thinking back, most of those who survived,
Ended up on the Divine or Dragon lists.
But it was unexpected that, in the wake of such a grand pacification, remnants of the Nangong still survived.
"That’s right, my ancestor was Nangong Haoqin. Sixty years ago, my father was carrying out a mission and led a small team away from our ancestral ho and sect, so they survived. Afterward, he brought us to Jiangning, dropped the compound surna, adopted the ’Gong’ character for our family na, and lived in seclusion here until today," Gong Qiliang narrated the past events.
"Over these sixty years, our Gong Family has also been diligent and quietly developing, not only changing our identity but truly repenting and reforming, no longer using the Evil Skill to harm people. This, you should be able to see. My abilities co from my personal cultivation. However, I do indeed have the ancestral Yin Stealing Skill hidden in my ho. I have thought it over carefully. If the Fairy is willing to cultivate it in reverse, she could use it to gather yang to replenish yin, and live an endless life."
"Nonsense!"
No sooner had Gong Qiliang finished speaking than Master Miejue vehently rebuked him.
"My master is a fairy, how could she learn such vile Evil Skills from you? It is nothing but a delusional fantasy. Since the remnants of your clan were not completely eradicated in the past, today I will finish this cleansing work and make sure the Nangong lineage disappears entirely!"
It must be said, there was still a sense of righteousness in the very marrow of Master Miejue.
Her stubborn pride was nothing more than part of her character.
The idea that soone would want Fairy Xifeng to cultivate an Evil Skill made her furious.
As a monastic, such worldly matters were absolutely unthinkable.
It was not just about breaking monastic precepts and disciplines.
It was an insult to her master and ancestors.
She could never accept it.
Yet, just as Master Miejue was about to swing her horsetail whisk, preparing to kill the father and son,
Fairy Xifeng spoke up to stop her.
"Miejue, be not reckless in your speech!"
"Master, they are insulting you!"
Master Miejue held the horsetail whisk, her face full of grief and indignation.
However, Gong Qiliang, with his head hanging low, revealed a hint of a smile.
Master Miejue was truly too naive.
She didn’t understand the attachnt and reluctance of a dying warrior to this world.
And they would never understand the intense survival desire and true face of Fairy Xifeng.
"Forget it, they ant well."
With Master Miejue present, Fairy Xifeng had no choice but to hold back her words.
She could only maintain a stern expression and say, "Since I have already promised you to not pursue any of the past events, I will keep my word. Henceforth, no one is allowed to ntion the na Nangong, and let’s turn the page on everything that has happened."
"Thank you, Fairy!"
Upon hearing this, Gong Qiliang and Gong Changjun quickly kowtowed.
Now, even if Master Miejue wanted to speak, she could not.
After all, her master had personally pardoned their capital cris.
Being a disciple, of course, she could not go against her master’s wishes.
"This experience should be heaven’s punishnt for , as much as they are evil-doers, heaven too possesses the virtue of cherishing life. The slaughter I’ve conducted has been excessive, which has led to this predicant. In a while, I will contact my master and inform her of this matter. Perhaps the master will have a good solution to help escape the suffering of both body and spirit decimation."
As Fairy Xifeng spoke, she stood up.
"Right, Gong Qiliang, although I’ve spared you from death, the Yin Stealing Skill, an Evil Skill, must not remain in this world. You must retrieve it imdiately and bring it to my room. I want to destroy it myself to prevent it from causing harm to the common folk in the future, and also to deter anyone with an agenda from taking it."
"No problem, Fairy. I will deliver the cultivation technique to you right away!"
Gong Qiliang got to his feet.
After stealing a glance at Master Miejue, he turned and walked towards the rear.
"Miejue, you’ve also been injured today, and it has aggravated your old injuries. You better go into seclusion to ditate and heal for a few days. If needed, I will have soone fetch you."
After saying this, Fairy Xifeng went to a guest room at the back on her own.
She didn’t give Master Miejue any chance to speak.
As master and disciple parted ways, Gong Qiliang walked into a secret chamber in the backyard.
He pressed a button and a hidden chanism in the wall opened imdiately.
A box appeared before him.
"How are things going?"
Just as Gong Qiliang was about to take out the Yin Stealing Skill from the box,
a hoarse voice suddenly ca from within the chamber.
"Reporting to the elder, there has been a change, but now I have obtained an even better puppet!"
Gong Qiliang, the elder of the Gong Family, actually knelt on one knee.
He recounted everything in detail.
"Very good. If Fairy Xifeng practices the Yin Stealing Skill, then the Gong Family won’t have to worry in the future. Just wait for the day I erge from seclusion, and that will be the day the Nangong Sect shall rise to glory again. I, Nangong Haoqin, shall kindle the flas of revenge on all the sects that besieged back then!"
The hoarse voice quieted down again.
The one hidden here was none other than Nangong Haoqin, the Nanxie who once was besieged.
This demon’s tenacious will to live had kept him from dying.
However, with severe injuries, he needed to gradually restore his ridians.
It was certainly not sothing that could be fully recovered in a decade or two.
Therefore, before that, the Gong Family had no choice but to continue their discreet endurance.
After taking leave of Nangong Haoqin, Gong Qiliang carried the box out of the secret chamber.
He proceeded to the guest room in the back garden.
"Fairy, the Yin Gathering Skill is here; please destroy it!"
Gong Qiliang held up the cultivation technique with both hands, standing in front of the door.
Although he said so, he knew that Fairy Xifeng would never willingly destroy such a treasure.
"Gong Qiliang, you and I are both wise. You should know what to do!"
Fairy Xifeng opened the door and took the Yin Gathering Skill in her hand.
Without Master Miejue by her side, she spoke even more directly.
"Please morize the technique tonight, and by tomorrow morning, I will prepare the dicinal prir for you to aid in your healing."
Gong Qiliang smiled faintly.
This ti, Fairy Xifeng had beco the best pawn for the Gong Family.
