327: Chapter 327: Capturing a Demoness

Sunset Sect, mountain gate.

Night had fallen, the moon was dark and the wind was high.

The mountain wind carried a chill as it passed through the treetops; the night-watch Disciple yawned, leaning boredly against a stone pillar.

This was one of the outermost Sects of the Righteous Path Alliance, located in a remote area where even passing Yao Beasts were rarely seen on ordinary days.

Suddenly, a burst of hurried footsteps came from the distance.

The night-watch Disciple raised his head in alarm, only to see a colorful figure flash through the night, as fast as a gust of wind.

"Who goes there!"

The night-watch Disciple had just shouted when the figure landed before the mountain gate, sending him flying with a single palm strike.

Liu Ruyan wore colorful robes with a light veil covering her face, her eyes and brows carrying three parts enchantment and seven parts arrogance.

Behind her followed dozens of Demonic Path Disciples, each radiating Killing Intent.

"Sunset Sect? Tsk, such a small Sect, how boring."

Liu Ruyan pursed her lips.

"But since it is a mission, then... smash it!"

The Demonic Path Disciples swarmed forward; the runes of the mountain-guarding formation had just lit up before being shattered by several streaks of black light.

The Sunset Sect's bells rang urgently, waking the Disciples from their sleep as they rushed out in a panic.

"The Demonic Path is attacking! The Demonic Path is attacking!"

Sunset Sect Sect Master Zhou Tianxing rushed out from the inner hall, his heart skipping a beat when he saw that alluring figure before the mountain gate.

Liu Ruyan?

She was an enchantress of the Demonic Path; why would she come to attack his small, remote Sect?

"Liu Ruyan! What is the meaning of this!"

Sect Master Zhou Tianxing shouted.

"The Righteous Path and the Demonic Path have already ceased hostilities; are you trying to tear up the Alliance treaty?!"

Liu Ruyan scoffed: "Treaty? That thing was written by you people of the Righteous Path; what does it have to do with our Demonic Path?"

"This lady is in a good mood tonight and wants to smash a Sect for fun."

Sect Master Zhou Tianxing's face turned livid, but he knew that with the Sunset Sect's strength, they could not stop this Demonic Path enchantress at all.

He made a prompt decision, taking out a communication jade talisman and injecting Qi into it.

"Sunset Sect is under attack! The Demonic Path's Liu Ruyan is leading an assault! Requesting reinforcements!"

The jade talisman lit up, and the message was transmitted to the Supreme Dao Palace.

...

Supreme Dao Palace, Li Changsheng's bedchamber.

He was sitting cross-legged on the bed, a law seed floating before him, its purple-gold light illuminating the entire room.

When the communication jade talisman lit up, he opened his eyes, the corners of his mouth curling slightly upward.

"It's here."

He put away the law seed and rose to walk out of the bedchamber.

Ling Jianxin was already waiting outside, his expression grave: "Alliance Leader, the Sunset Sect is under attack, and Liu Ruyan is leading the team personally."

Li Changsheng nodded, his tone indifferent.

"Understood. I will return shortly."

Ling Jianxin was stunned: "Alliance Leader, you are going?"

"It is merely a Demonic Path enchantress; there is no need to make a big fuss."

As Li Changsheng spoke, he had already transformed into a streak of white light, disappearing into the night sky.

Before the Sunset Sect's mountain gate, the battle had not yet officially begun.

The Demonic Path Disciples brought by Liu Ruyan were still attacking the Sect and plundering resources.

Sect Master Zhou Tianxing led his Disciples in standing guard, and the two sides remained in a standoff.

Suddenly.

A streak of white light descended from the sky, landing in the center of the mountain gate.

Li Changsheng, dressed in snow-white robes, stood with his hands behind his back, looking at Liu Ruyan with calm eyes.

"Liu Ruyan, you have crossed the line."

Seeing him, Liu Ruyan's lips curled into a smile.

"Yo, Alliance Leader Li has come personally? What, are you worried about your little Sect being demolished?"

"I am worried that you will be beaten to death." Li Changsheng's tone was very light.

"I will give you three breaths of time to take your people and leave; otherwise, do not blame me for being impolite."

Liu Ruyan feigned disdain: "And what if I don't leave?"

But as soon as her voice fell, Li Changsheng had already moved.

His speed was as fast as a ghost; before Liu Ruyan could react, he pressed a palm onto her shoulder.

The aura of the Mahayana Stage law seed was released and immediately retracted, but that momentary pressure made Liu Ruyan's legs go slightly weak.

Liu Ruyan struggled a few times, but she was defeated and captured.

Seeing their boss captured, the Demonic Path Disciples she brought immediately scattered, running faster than rabbits.

Sect Master Zhou Tianxing watched all of this in a daze.

Alliance Leader Li made a move and subdued the Demonic Path enchantress within three breaths? This is just too strong...

Li Changsheng did not even glance at Sect Master Zhou Tianxing, grabbing Liu Ruyan by the collar and disappearing as a streak of white light.

Sect Master Zhou Tianxing stood in place, unable to regain his senses for a long while, and finally muttered.

"Alliance Leader Li... truly is a Divine Being."

...

Supreme Dao Palace, dungeon.

Though it was called a dungeon, the environment was actually better than the rooms where ordinary Disciples lived.

The stone bed was clean and tidy, and there was tea and snacks on the table.

Liu Ruyan sat on the edge of the stone bed, crossing her legs and peeling peanuts leisurely.

Li Changsheng pushed the door open and entered, closing it behind him.

Liu Ruyan looked up at him and smiled: "You are quite fast."

"Nonsense, who told you to invade the Righteous Path without authorization?"

"Are you not afraid of death?"

Li Changsheng sat opposite her and poured a cup of tea.

Liu Ruyan chewed on a peanut and said with affectionate eyes.

"If I did not do this, would I be able to see you?"

"Alliance Leader Li is a very busy man now; you must have forgotten about this little woman!"

"I even gave my body to you."

Li Changsheng was about to drink tea, but nearly choked upon hearing this.

"What is that supposed to mean?"

"What kind of talk is this?"

"When did I ever ask for your body?"

Liu Ruyan smiled indifferently: "I have saved the recording from that time; Alliance Leader Li, you wouldn't want to ruin your reputation, would you!"

Li Changsheng was silent for three seconds, then put down the teacup.

"You are ruthless!"

"If this gets out, wouldn't you be seen by everyone?"

Liu Ruyan indicated it had no impact.

"I am from the Hehuan Sect anyway; in the eyes of the world, am I not already debauched?"

"What if I am seen? What can be done?"

"I can only blame my hard fate for giving my body to someone not worth trusting."

Li Changsheng's mouth twitched involuntarily upon hearing this.

"Are you addicted to acting?"

"See how I deal with you!"

Li Changsheng stopped pretending; he stood up directly and approached Liu Ruyan.

Liu Ruyan struggled symbolically.

Afterwards, she could only submit to the lewd might of the Integration Stage expert.

"Ah~"

The two enjoyed themselves for a while.

Liu Ruyan lay on Li Changsheng's shoulder.

"During the time I was away, have any little Fairies seduced you?"

Li Changsheng shook his head hurriedly.

"I am an upright person; you know that."

"Pfft~"

Liu Ruyan scoffed in disbelief.

Li Changsheng shook his head helplessly: "Alright, I really haven't."

"You stay here for a few days, and in a few days, change your appearance and stay by my side; that should put your mind at ease, right!"

Liu Ruyan stretched: "Sure, anyway, it is much more comfortable here than in the Demonic Path."

"There is food and drink, and someone to chat with; it is quite good."

Li Changsheng couldn't help but chuckle, then rose to leave.

Li Changsheng strode away, stepping out of the dungeon; the night breeze blew, carrying a hint of chill.

He looked up at the moon in the sky.

In the Soul Link, Xiao Ran's voice came through.

"How is it? You got the person, right?"

Li Changsheng: "Got her?"

Xiao Ran: "Then aren't you comfortable again?"

The two laughed at the same time.

Moonlight spilled onto the peak of the Supreme Dao Palace, illuminating the entire palace in silver-white.

And in the distant Eternal Night Demon Sect, Xiao Ran stood on the main peak, looking in the same direction, also smiling.

The next day, news spread from the Supreme Dao Palace.

The Demonic Path enchantress Liu Ruyan had been personally captured by Alliance Leader Li.

Rumors outside claimed Alliance Leader Li's methods were ruthless, and Liu Ruyan had been tortured beyond recognition.

In reality, at this moment, Liu Ruyan was sitting in Li Changsheng's private tea room, crossing her legs and drinking tea, with a plate of osmanthus cakes placed before her.

"The snacks on the Righteous Path side are indeed better than those of the Demonic Path."

Liu Ruyan commented as such.

Li Changsheng sat opposite her and rolled his eyes.

"If you like them, come by more often in the future."

Liu Ruyan nodded with a smile: "Sure, as long as you provide the food."

The sunlight outside the window was just right, shining on their teacups as steam curled upwards.
