28: Demon Lord

Revered Master is still too shy!

Gu Yuan sighed helplessly.

Every time he took advantage of Revered Master, Revered Master would hide for several days. How could this be allowed!

Gu Yuan decided that next time, he absolutely couldn't let Revered Master be so shy.

Hmm... what method should I use?

"Hello, Senior Brother! Hehe~"

Several Junior Sisters walking towards him greeted Gu Yuan with smiles.

Although Senior Brother was now the Young Sect Master, they were used to calling him Senior Brother and couldn't change their address for a while.

Gu Yuan naturally didn't mind this. He smiled and nodded at them.

"What are you all going to do? You look very busy."

The cute little Junior Sisters, hearing this, put on a pitiful expression.

"It's because the Qiong Yue Grand Assembly is about to start, and we all have to go around helping out."

"Yes, yes~ But then Senior Brother will officially be the Young Sect Master, hehe~"

"Oh right, oh right, Lord Young Sect Master~ Please take good care of us in the future."

Gu Yuan found it amusing and ruffled each of their little heads.

Then, he took out many different Medicinal Pills from his storage ring and gave them to them.

"Here, I, your Senior Brother, wouldn't mistreat my own Junior Sisters. Take these to eat and play. I'll trouble you all with the Qiong Yue Grand Assembly."

The Junior Sisters all accepted the Medicinal Pills with smiles, then nodded their little heads vigorously.

"Senior Brother, don't worry, we'll work hard!"

Gu Yuan watched their hopping figures and shook his head with a smile.

Junior Sisters, this kind of creature, are indeed cute and adorable.

"Pfft~ Little brother, you're really popular in the Jade Moon Sect~"

When Gu Yuan arrived at his courtyard, a soft voice suddenly sounded.

The next moment, Devilish Qi surged all around, and then a charming figure appeared before him.

Hiss... Gu Yuan couldn't help but gulp when he saw the other party's face.

Mingyue... why is she here?

Could it be that she recognized me!?

No, it shouldn't be. If she recognized me, her reaction wouldn't be so calm.

Thinking this, Gu Yuan's heart also calmed down a little.

He cleared his throat lightly and asked, without batting an eyelid:

"May I ask why Lord Demon Venerable has come to my Jade Moon Sect? This is not a place where Lord Demon Venerable can come and go as she pleases."

Nether Moon's brow furrowed slightly when she heard him call her Lord Demon Venerable again.

When she first saw Gu Yuan, an inexplicable feeling had surged in her heart.

Now, hearing him call her that again, the strange feeling in her heart intensified.

What Nether Moon didn't know was that although she had Gu Yuan's blood in her body,

the System's powerful hand obstructed all of it.

However... even with the System's help in concealing him,

Nether Moon had Gu Yuan's blood in her body, and that natural closeness was the reason Nether Moon felt strange.

Nether Moon showed a look that would make anyone pity her.

"Little brother, why are you so wary of me, your elder sister? You should know that the rapid progress in your relationship with your Revered Master is all thanks to me, your elder sister."

Uh... I'm speechless... This is actually true!

Gu Yuan spread his hands and said somewhat helplessly:

"Then, may I ask what matter Lord Demon Venerable has? Just say it directly, otherwise, if my Revered Master notices later, you won't be able to leave."

Eh...?

Nether Moon was stunned when she heard this. This little brother was actually quite considerate of her?

"Putting other things aside for now, why do you always call me Lord Demon Venerable? Your Revered Master and I are rivals. Logically speaking, shouldn't you and I be like fire and water?"

As Nether Moon spoke, her gaze also became somewhat suspicious.

And Gu Yuan's body instantly shivered.

"Cough, although our positions are different, Your Excellency's status is, after all, the same as my Revered Master's. I don't think there's anything wrong with calling you Lord Demon Venerable."

Gu Yuan found a perfect reason, and Nether Moon nodded after hearing it. That was indeed not wrong.

"Hmm, Lord Demon Venerable, please speak directly, otherwise, Revered Master might really come over."

Gu Yuan continued to quickly change the subject, not allowing the other party to think too deeply.

Because Gu Yuan always felt that Mingyue might notice something amiss.

The System had already warned him that the Fated Heroines were starting to become suspicious.

This made Gu Yuan have to constantly pay attention.

Otherwise, what if she suddenly said, 'Gu Yuan, you're the one who saved me, aren't you?'

Wouldn't he be exposed then...? Nether Moon merely chuckled upon hearing this, and then a blood-red light appeared in her hand.

"As for me, your elder sister, of course, I have no other business. I just want to invite you, little brother, to come with me~"

Sure enough, this person still wanted to use him to put Revered Master in danger, thereby forcing him to appear and rescue Revered Master.

Gu Yuan sighed helplessly.

He really didn't expect Mingyue to be so persistent.

"Lord Demon Venerable is joking. As the Young Sect Master of the Jade Moon Sect, how could I possibly go with you?"

As Gu Yuan spoke, he had already thought of a countermeasure in his heart.

Nether Moon chuckled, her enchanting face now full of smiles.

"Little brother, this Venerable has already revealed herself. Do you think you can still escape? Obediently come with me, otherwise, I might have to make you suffer some physical pain~"

As Nether Moon's words fell, the surrounding Devilish Qi grew even denser.

But Gu Yuan, facing Nether Moon's threat, merely showed a sunny smile.

Coupled with Gu Yuan's world-shaking appearance, which was like a Succubus,

for a moment, Nether Moon felt a trance, as if the person in front of her overlapped with the figure of the one who had rescued her many times before... But before Nether Moon could think further, Gu Yuan took out a Scroll and then directly crushed it.

The next moment, his figure actually disappeared from the spot.

"Wait..."

Nether Moon's words were not yet finished, but Gu Yuan's trace was already gone from before her.

This... how is this possible.

She was a Great Dao Realm cultivator. How could he escape right under her nose?

Moreover... Nether Moon pursed her lips.

That moment of trance just now made her feel very complicated inside, even an unspeakable sense of loss.

What's wrong with me...?

Nether Moon's beautiful eyes flickered with a complex expression, and then she left the place.

Since the plan had failed, there was no need for her to stay.

After all, although her stealth ability was unparalleled,

it would still be very troublesome if That Woman, Dongfang Yingxue, got entangled with her.

Moreover... Nether Moon, who had left the Jade Moon Sect, revealed a meaningful smile.

Perhaps this time, she wasn't returning empty-handed.

Gu Yuan... truly a mysterious person.

You've successfully caught my attention.

Nether Moon had a hunch that by sticking close to Gu Yuan, she might be able to find him.

This was an intuition unrelated to cultivation or Realm, simply a woman's sixth sense.

But Nether Moon had always trusted this intuition.

"This time, I will definitely find you..."

Nether Moon said softly, her voice filled with undeniable determination.
