Chapter 204: Nangong Mili and Meng Xiaochan
by xennovelIn a secluded cave.
Meng Xiaochan wore a white dress. Her exquisitely beautiful face showed signs of exhaustion.
She looked at her master beside her with worry.
Nangong Mili’s face was extremely pale, devoid of color. Her beautiful eyes were tightly shut as she lay unconscious.
Even in her coma, her body exuded an alluring and seductive charm.
One glance was enough to set imagination running wild, stirring desires and criminal thoughts.
There was an urge to conquer and dominate her.
Meng Xiaochan checked her master’s condition, then took out a pill and fed it to Nangong Mili.
She then used her Spiritual Energy to help digest the medicine.
“Mmm~”
Nangong Mili’s long, thick eyelashes fluttered slightly, and a soft, crisp moan escaped her lips.
“Master, you’re awake!”
Meng Xiaochan heard the soft sound and jolted, her face immediately lighting up with joy.
“Xiaochan.”
Nangong Mili’s almond-shaped eyes, like two peach blossoms, slowly opened. Her hazy eyes held a bewitching power that could captivate souls.
“Master, how are you feeling?”
Meng Xiaochan asked with concern.
“Not too good.”
Nangong Mili slightly raised her weak body and shook her head gently, asking, “Xiaochan, how long was I unconscious?”
Her figure was graceful and enchanting, voluptuous and full.
Her chest was high and prominent, straining against her clothes.
Her waist was slender enough to be encircled by one hand, and her round buttocks pressed against the ground, looking very sensual.
Under her black gauze skirt, a pair of snow-white, bloodless, delicate jade feet were exposed, incredibly alluring.
“Master, you’ve been unconscious for over two months.”
Meng Xiaochan said, her voice somewhat low.
That day, although they managed to escape from Nine Heavens Immortal City,
They still faced pursuit from the Heavenly Sword Sect.
Under Yun Jianfeng’s pursuit, Nangong Mili had to use a secret technique to escape with Meng Xiaochan.
But the aftereffects of this technique were severe, causing her to fall into a coma until now.
“Over two months…”
Hearing this, Nangong Mili’s delicate brows furrowed, her enchantingly beautiful face showing signs of gravity.
She took out a token with a celestial spider pattern from her Storage Ring.
After a moment, her solemn face turned somewhat ugly.
“Master, what’s wrong?”
Meng Xiaochan bit her lip lightly, seeing her master’s expression.
She knew that her master usually maintained a carefree and unrestrained attitude.
Only when facing serious matters would she show such an expression.
“My dear daughter, we’re in danger this time.”
Nangong Mili chuckled lightly, putting on a fake relaxed look.
“In danger?”
Hearing this, Meng Xiaochan’s heart sank, vaguely guessing what had happened.
She asked, “Master, did the Sect Leader and the Heaven Corpse Sect Leader lose?”
She and her master Nangong Mili had come to the cultivation world of Jiang Kingdom mainly to prepare for Jin Kingdom’s invasion.
On one hand, they were to contact and organize the sect’s hidden agents in Jiang Kingdom.
On the other hand, they were waiting for the Five Poison Sect Leader and Heaven Corpse Sect Leader to defeat True Lord Xuanjian Li Duanxuan.
Once Jin Kingdom’s army invaded Jiang Kingdom, they would take the opportunity to disrupt Jiang Kingdom’s cultivation world from behind, collaborating with Jin Kingdom’s three major demonic sects.
But now, three months had passed since they were surrounded by the Heavenly Sword Sect.
The Five Poison Sect from Jin Kingdom hadn’t contacted them or come to their rescue.
Now, seeing her master’s expression, she vaguely guessed that the Five Poison Sect Leader and Heaven Corpse Sect Leader might have lost to True Lord Xuanjian Li Duanxuan.
“That’s right. According to the information, the Sect Leader and Heaven Corpse Sect Leader should have lost this battle.”
“If so, Jiang Kingdom’s cultivation world is likely under complete lockdown now.”
“It’ll be difficult for us to leave Jiang Kingdom and return to Jin Kingdom.”
“Moreover, the Heavenly Sword Sect is surely still hunting us down.”
Nangong Mili didn’t hide anything, her voice weak and soft.
As she spoke, she tried to stand up.
But due to her weakness, she stumbled halfway up.
“Master.”
Seeing this, Meng Xiaochan quickly reached out to support her master’s perfect body.
“Sigh, after using the insect sacrifice technique earlier, in this condition, I’m afraid it’ll take three to five years to recover from these aftereffects.”
Nangong Mili shook her head slightly.
Looking at Meng Xiaochan’s worried face, she wrapped her fair arms around her, hanging onto her body.
Putting on a pitiful and delicate appearance, she said, “My dear daughter, in the coming days, mother can only rely on you to take care of her.”
“Master!”
Meng Xiaochan didn’t expect her master to still have the mood to joke and tease her at such a time.
“Hehe.”
Nangong Mili, with her tall and graceful figure, kissed Meng Xiaochan’s delicate white cheek and said, “Xiaochan, what’s done is done. There’s no use worrying.”
“Think back, years ago, my master, your great-grandmother, and I also had a similar experience.”
“But I was even younger than you then, having just broken through to Foundation Establishment.”
Nangong Mili’s beautiful eyes showed a reminiscent look as she spoke softly.
She had taken Meng Xiaochan as her personal disciple and treated her so well partly because Meng Xiaochan was her master’s descendant.
On the other hand, she also saw her past self in Meng Xiaochan.
Remembering how her master had taught her and cared for her like a daughter,
This also led to a mischievous desire to tease Meng Xiaochan whenever she saw her.
Meng Xiaochan bit her lips without speaking.
This was the first time she had heard about these things.
After all, she didn’t know much about her deceased great-grandmother.
“So, we’ll cross that bridge when we come to it. Let’s stay in these mountains safely for three to five years. When things calm down and I recover some spiritual power, we’ll consider our next move.”
Nangong Mili said, pinching her disciple’s delicate face.
“Yes, Master.”
Meng Xiaochan, infected by her master’s words and actions, relaxed her tense mind a bit.
For the past three months, her mind had been constantly on edge.
She was afraid that the Heavenly Sword Sect would discover their whereabouts.
After all, with her strength, trying to escape pursuit while carrying Nangong Mili was simply a pipe dream.
Now, although Nangong Mili was extremely weak, at least she gave Meng Xiaochan a pillar of support, calming her heart.
Just then.
“Buzz buzz buzz——”
A faint sound reached Meng Xiaochan’s ears.
Her delicate face immediately turned serious, and she made a gesture to her master.
Then she formed hand seals, concealing the aura around the entire cave.
Having survived in these mountains for so long without being attacked by beasts or found by the Heavenly Sword Sect was due to her methods of hiding insects in the surroundings.
As long as there was any unusual movement or sound in the surrounding area, she could quickly receive the news and seal off the cave’s aura.
At this moment, above the mountain range.
A figure flashed through the sky.
“Hmm, there was clearly a demonic aura here just now.”
This was a beautiful woman in her thirties.
She wore a gray-white dress, her face elegant, her skin as white as snow, her eyebrows like green feathers. Her black hair was tied in a simple high bun. As the breeze blew, her clothes fluttered, emanating a mature and sharp charm.
“Clang——”
Looking at the mountain range before her, the beautiful woman formed hand seals, and a clear sword chime rang out from within her body.
A blue Magical Sword flew out from her body.
After the sword danced in the air, its body burst forth with endless dazzling blue light.
Then, as the light surged, the sword seemed to merge with this world, making every wisp of air contain a trace of sword energy.
After a long while.
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh——”
Streams of sword energy shot out, killing several insects.
“Insects, these are demonic insects, indicating that there are demonic cultivators hiding here!”
The beautiful woman suddenly opened her eyes, looking at the insect corpses she had killed, her eyes sharply scanning the mountain peaks.
Just now, her River Sword Technique had merged sword energy into the world, sensing something unusual. There were many insects in this area.
Insect cultivation was a very obscure cultivation art.
Very few people in the entire Jiang Kingdom would cultivate insects.
However, one of Jin Kingdom’s three major demonic sects, the Five Poison Sect, was famous for its insect and poison techniques.
So she immediately guessed that there were demonic cultivators from the Five Poison Sect hiding in this mountain range.
“Among the three Golden Core cultivators who escaped, one is the Five Poison Sect’s Celestial Spider Envoy, Nangong Mili.”
“This person’s innate Celestial Spider was killed by Senior Brother Tianjue. Earlier, they barely escaped under Senior Brother Tianjue’s pursuit by using a life-burning secret technique. So, even if this person is Nangong Mili, they’re definitely no match for me!”
The beautiful woman’s eyes were sharp as swords as she muttered to herself.
The next moment, the azure Magical Sword above her head slashed forward fiercely!
A sword light, like a rolling celestial river, emitted an overwhelming aura as it slashed towards a mountaintop.
“Boom!”
Instantly, the entire mountaintop was leveled under this sword strike.
After flattening the mountaintop, she didn’t sense anything unusual and continued to slash at another mountaintop.
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
One mountaintop after another was sliced off, causing the entire mountain range to rumble. Countless fierce beasts and monsters trembled at this disturbance.
“Master.”
In a cave somewhere, Meng Xiaochan heard this commotion and looked at her master.
When the poison insect was killed earlier, she immediately realized that someone from the Heavenly Sword Sect must have arrived and discovered something amiss.
Previously, disciples from the Heavenly Sword Sect had patrolled and passed by here, but no one had noticed her.
Meng Xiaochan guessed that Nangong Mili must have awakened and accidentally leaked her aura, which was then sensed by someone.
After all, during such a tense period, it was normal for the Heavenly Sword Sect to create Artifacts and treasures that could detect demonic auras to hunt them down and clear out the demonic path.
“This is a Top-Tier Third-Tier teleportation talisman. Xiaochan, use this talisman and you can escape from here.”
Seeing her disciple’s expression, Nangong Mili took out a talisman from her Storage Ring and handed it to Meng Xiaochan.
Although she was weak and powerless, she could still use a bit of Spiritual Energy.
“Master, with my strength, I can’t fully activate a talisman of this level. Besides, what about you?”
Meng Xiaochan looked at Nangong Mili and asked with concern.
“Of course I’ll go with you. Don’t tell me you were planning to abandon your master and leave me behind?”
“Boo-hoo-hoo, I can’t believe you wanted to abandon your master and escape alone, boo-hoo-hoo.”
Hearing this, Nangong Mili immediately put on a pitiful face, looking so aggrieved it could melt hearts.
“Master.”
Meng Xiaochan looked utterly helpless.
At a time like this, her master was still being so dramatic.
“Silly girl, just activate the teleportation talisman. Leave the rest to me. Though I’ll probably fall unconscious again afterward.”
“When that happens, remember to seal my Spiritual Energy. Otherwise, once I wake up, my aura might leak again and be detected by the Heavenly Sword Sect.”
Nangong Mili said.
She guessed that the Heavenly Sword Sect people’s arrival was probably due to some treasure detecting her aura.
Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence?
As she spoke, she tightly wrapped her jade arms around Meng Xiaochan’s neck, hanging her alluring and graceful body completely on Meng Xiaochan.
“Master, I can’t breathe like this.”
Meng Xiaochan was half a head shorter than Nangong Mili.
In this position, Nangong Mili’s two soft peaks completely enveloped her face.
“Alright, don’t delay. Hurry up.”
Seeing her little disciple’s expression, Nangong Mili found it quite amusing and even pushed out her full, plump chest a bit more as she urged.
Meng Xiaochan didn’t dare hesitate and immediately consumed her Spiritual Energy to use this Third-Tier teleportation talisman.
“Hmm!?”
The next moment, on the mountain range, the beautiful woman in a gray-white dress immediately sensed a fluctuation of Spiritual Energy.
She immediately slashed her Magical Sword towards the mountaintop in front.
This sword strike was extremely sharp and domineering. The sword light was like an azure celestial river pouring down from the ninth heaven, overshadowing all light in the world.
“Rumble!”
Under this sword strike, the mountaintop directly collapsed, split into two halves.
The beautiful woman immediately transformed into a rainbow light, saw the cave inside this great mountain, and her face turned cold.
The Spiritual Energy fluctuation just now and the traces before her eyes let her know that the demonic cultivator had escaped from right under her nose in an instant.
“Hmm!?”
Just then, she seemed to sense something and suddenly looked in another direction, her Magical Sword gathering power, about to strike out.
“Senior, I was just passing by here!”
From a pile of rocks in the distance, a black-clad girl of sixteen or seventeen crawled out, hurriedly raising her hand and shouting loudly.
Although there was some fear in the girl’s eyes, her small face was tense, revealing a stubbornness and determination between her brows and eyes.
“Oh? Qi Refining fourth level.”
The beautiful woman looked at the black-clad girl, her brows slightly furrowed.
She didn’t know why the girl would appear in this mountain range.
Although this mountain range wasn’t overrun with monsters, there were still quite a few roaming about.
With the girl’s level of strength, she could be in danger if she encountered even a slightly powerful monster.
However, seeing the girl’s condition, she knew she had been affected by her earlier attacks.
She immediately raised her slender hand, causing the rocks around the girl to disperse.
“Little girl, this mountain range is very dangerous for someone of your strength.”
“Let me send you away.”
Lan Ruoxue looked at the black-clad girl and said.
“Thank you, senior. I want to cross this mountain range to go to the Heavenly Sword Sect.”
The black-clad girl bowed and said.
“Oh? The Heavenly Sword Sect? What are you going to the Heavenly Sword Sect for?”
Lan Ruoxue was a bit surprised to hear this.
“The Heavenly Sword Sect is a sect for sword cultivators. I’m determined to become a great sword immortal, so I want to join the Heavenly Sword Sect!”
The black-clad girl pursed her lips and said seriously, her eyes revealing a firm determination.
“It’s not easy to join the Heavenly Sword Sect.”
Hearing the girl’s words, Lan Ruoxue smiled gently and said, “Since you’ve encountered me, it can be considered fate. If you have talent in the Sword Dao, I’ll take you to the Heavenly Sword Sect.”
“Thank you, senior!”
Qin Yi heard this and immediately showed excitement and joy on her face.
She had witnessed Lan Ruoxue’s earlier actions of leveling mountaintops and splitting mountains with a single sword strike.
She knew that Lan Ruoxue before her was a senior expert.
Hearing these words now, she guessed that the other party was likely a high-ranking member of the Heavenly Sword Sect.
Lan Ruoxue didn’t say much more. She stepped forward, appearing in front of Qin Yi, and grasped her wrist to check her spiritual root talent.
On a mountaintop that reached into the clouds.
On this mountaintop, there was a Spirit Pond shrouded in mist.
A thick, misty fog surrounded the Spirit Pond, making it impossible to see clearly inside.
It wasn’t morning or night, so why was there such thick mist surrounding the Spirit Pond?
However, if a cultivator were to see it, they would realize that someone had set up a formation here, indicating that this Spirit Pond was already occupied.
“Splash splash—splash splash—”
The sounds of water splashing and waves crashing, a woman’s enchanting moans, and a man’s heavy breathing blended perfectly, composing an blood-pumping melody that echoed across the empty mountaintop.
“Ah… Lu Lang…”
In the Spirit Pond soaked a woman with elegant features and long, flowing black hair.
She was tall and voluptuous, her jade-like body partially visible in the pond water, stirring up ripples. Her luscious red lips emitted plaintive sounds.
“Don’t worry, if anyone comes, I’ll sense it immediately. Besides, Zixiao, didn’t you set up a formation?”
Lu Changsheng pressed against her jade back, circulating the Dragon Guide Technique to help Ling Zixiao refine the Dragon’s Chant Yang energy in her body.
However, just as he finished speaking, he suddenly sensed something and abruptly looked up at the sky.
They saw a ripple in the void, and two figures fell from the sky with a “splash” into the Spirit Pond.
