1238: Chapter 1238 Trace of the Demonic Path 1238: Chapter 1238 Trace of the Demonic Path “No…
no…
impossible…”
Her throat was clutched by Su Chengyu, yet Bei Tang Qi ng still couldn’t believe everything before her eyes.
It had only been about a year, so why had the Loose Cultivator from Longjiang far surpassed her own realm?
“Who…
who are you really?”
Although Bei Tang Qi ng had located Su Chengyu, she hadn’t conducted thorough investigations at that ti.
After being defeated by Yu Feng of the Ancient Clan, she returned to the north of Wei to avoid further troubles, truly unaware of Su Chengyu’s identity and na.
However, right now, Bei Tang Qi ng was not exactly asking that; she just couldn’t believe that the man before her was the sa individual she had encountered that day.
“Su Chengyu, that’s enough,”
Bei Tang Qian Xiao, standing to the side, spoke with so worry.
She had guessed that a conflict was inevitable upon their eting, but considering Bei Tang Qi ng’s past actions, Bei Tang Qian Xiao didn’t have much to say.
As long as Su Chengyu didn’t kill Bei Tang Qi ng outright, in Bei Tang Qian Xiao’s view, it was acceptable.
This was not only due to Bei Tang Qian Xiao’s personal feelings, but it was also true for the Bei Tang Family as a whole.
This was precisely why Bei Tang Ru ng had not made any moves until now.
Su Chengyu gave Bei Tang Qi ng a cold look, “You’re really lucky to be born into the Bei Tang Family, having others to protect you against opponents you cannot defeat.
Otherwise, you would have been dead a long ti ago.”
Bei Tang Qi ng looked at Su Chengyu and, still defiant, scoffed, “So what if you are a Nascent Soul?
Do you really dare to kill here?”
“Bei Tang Qi ng, enough!”
Bei Tang Qian Xiao spoke urgently.
She knew Su Chengyu well, knowing he was soone who could be swayed with gentleness rather than hardness.
Bei Tang Qi ng’s words would have no effect other than to further infuriate Su Chengyu.
Sure enough, Su Chengyu’s grip tightened instantly as he narrowed his eyes and said, “If I dare to kill Long Li, who do you think you are?”
Bei Tang Qi ng was taken aback upon hearing this na.
Her mind imdiately connected the man before her with the na she had just heard the night before, and she finally realized Su Chengyu’s identity.
The previous arrogance instantly vanished, and she looked at Su Chengyu again, her eyes filled with nothing but terror.
“Auntie…
Auntie, save …”
Bei Tang Ru ng, who had been watching all this with a detached gaze, paused her eyes on the other party for a mont before finally looking at Su Chengyu and saying, “Young Master Su, for my sake, could you spare her life?”
After discussing the matter between them, Bei Tang Qian Xiao had inford Bei Tang Ru ng of Bei Tang Qi ng’s past grievances with Su Chengyu, so Bei Tang Ru ng knew that Bei Tang Qi ng was at fault here, which was why she had allowed Su Chengyu to take action.
But if Su Chengyu really started killing, as an elder of the Bei Tang Family, she couldn’t just stand by and watch.
“When she wanted to kill back then, did she ever think of giving a way out?”
Su Chengyu’s cold words made Bei Tang Qi ng feel as if she had fallen into an ice pit.
She believed that Bei Tang Ru ng could suppress Su Chengyu if she intervened, but she feared that the madman before her might just act recklessly and kill her first, considering her life was currently in his hands.
“Rest assured, Young Master Su, the Bei Tang family will definitely give you a proper explanation for this matter.”
Bei Tang Ru ng spoke, then looking at Bei Tang Qi ng with narrowed eyes, she added, “Besides, I also have so questions for her, and it would be troubleso for if she died now.”
Su Chengyu, sowhat surprised, turned to look at Bei Tang Ru ng and asked, “Elder, did you figure sothing out?”
Upon hearing these words, Bei Tang Ru ng was similarly surprised, but soon he spoke, “If young master Su can perceive it, I’m certainly not so old as to have dimd vision.”
At these words, Su Chengyu’s murderous intent gradually began to subside, and he grabbed Bei Tang Qi ng and threw her forcefully beside Bei Tang Ru ng.
Landing awkwardly on the ground, Bei Tang Ru ng struggled over to Bei Tang Ru ng and said, “Aunt, you must stand up for , this man…”
“Shut up!
Even if young master Su had not taken action today, I would have held you accountable myself.
Behave yourself and stay with the team; I’ll handle your affairs after the Demon Subjugation Conference is over.”
Bei Tang Qi ng, startled, then looking sowhat panicky, rose to her feet, dusted herself off, and mingled into the crowd.
Noticing the reaction of the two, Bei Tang Qian Xiao found it strange and, recalling the earlier conversation between Bei Tang Ru ng and Su Chengyu, softly asked, “Elder, what happened?”
Bei Tang Ru ng’s expression was impassive as he spoke softly, “Bei Tang Ru ng is no longer a virgin.”
“What?”
Bei Tang Qian Xiao paused for a mont, then glanced at a distant Bei Tang Qi ng and asked, “Was it last night?”
“It seems so.
She probably found soone in Capital City to utilize the Dual Cultivation thod to break through the Golden Core bottleneck.”
Bei Tang Qian Xiao fell silent.
The Beitang Family’s family rules were not especially strict, but for a direct descendant to intermarry outside the family was never a small matter.
“She was probably just confused montarily; Su Chengyu’s intervention could be seen as a lesson for her.”
“You think it’s just that?”
Bei Tang Qi ng scoffed, glanced at Bei Tang Qi ng, and said, “This girl probably doesn’t even know; the technique used was not proper Dual Cultivation but purely the Yin Yang Replenishing Technique!”
“Techniques of Demon Path?”
Bei Tang Qian Xiao exclaid instinctively, and a look from Bei Tang Ru ng imdiately silenced Bei Tang Qian Xiao.
There are many Dual Cultivation thods in the world, but they generally emphasize Yin-Yang balance so that both parties can achieve a Taiji complentary state.
However, those Dual Cultivation Techniques that benefit only one party, while the other serves rely as a cauldron, are classified as Demonic Cultivation Techniques.
Since the Demonic Path vanished from sight, these malignant techniques also disappeared from public view, so it was normal for Bei Tang Qian Xiao to be unaware.
But Bei Tang Ru ng, having lived through the great war a century ago, realized sothing was off with Bei Tang Qi ng the mont she appeared.
Whether Bei Tang Qi ng knew or not, engaging with Demonic Dual Cultivation could potentially brand the Beitang family as conspirators with the Demonic Path once word got out.
Do not forget, the great noble families and the Nine Ancient Tribes gathered here are all aiming at the Demonic Path.
“The mont Qi ng appeared, I sensed sothing was wrong.
When she fought with the Su family’s boy, I was certain of it,” Bei Tang Ru ng said, his eyebrows tightly furrowed.
Consorting with the Demonic Path was a cri punishable by death; however, considering the Demonic Path might have infiltrated Capital City with them, Bei Tang Qi ng was an important clue and indeed could not die.
Bei Tang Qian Xiao took a deep breath, not daring to discuss further for fear of eavesdroppers, and changed the subject.
“Did Su Chengyu also notice this?”
“Yes, but the young man is clever and knows the gravity of the matter, so he did not reveal it directly.
Otherwise, even before the Demon Subjugation Conference could start, our Beitang family might have already beco the target of all.”
