337: Chapter 337 Refusal to Join the Seven Emotions Sword Sect

After a brief exchange, Chen Hu took Long Yuqing and continued their journey.

Upon witnessing the speed Chen Hu displayed, Long Yuqing could not help but secretly guess what level Chen Hu's Realm had reached.

It did not take long for the two of them to officially leave the Heavenly Demon Domain and enter the July Domain.

Then, Chen Hu used his Divine Sense to discover a city a thousand miles away.

And he sensed several Soul Transformation auras from that city.

Thus, he took Long Yuqing and headed straight for that city.

Soon, the two of them arrived.

Chen Hu set Long Yuqing down: "Fellow Daoist Long, I will leave you here. There are people from your Seven Emotions Sword Sect in this city!"

This city could be considered an outpost for the conflict between the Four Great Sword Sects and the Heavenly Demon Sect, with several Soul Transformation experts stationed inside.

Seeing that Chen Hu was about to leave, Long Yuqing could not help but ask: "Fellow Daoist, where do you plan to go?"

"I don't know!"

Chen Hu said: "I will wander around for a bit first."

"Fellow Daoist, you have no Sect or affiliation. Why not choose a Sect to join? It would be convenient for your future Cultivation!" Long Yuqing looked at Chen Hu and earnestly persuaded him.

"What, Fellow Daoist Long, are you planning to persuade me to join your Seven Emotions Sword Sect?"

Chen Hu asked with a chuckle.

"Yes!"

Long Yuqing nodded: "If you are willing, I can help recommend you. With your strength, Fellow Daoist, it would not be difficult to become a Sect deacon. If your Cultivation reaches the Spirit Severing Realm, you might even be qualified to become an Elder!"

"Outsiders can become Elders too? Aren't you afraid of spies?" Chen Hu asked with some surprise.

Hearing the word "spy," Long Yuqing's expression became somewhat awkward: "That won't happen. To join our Sect, one must pass the test of the Heart-Questioning Mirror!"

"What is the Heart-Questioning Mirror?" Chen Hu asked again.

Long Yuqing explained: "The Heart-Questioning Mirror is a Magic Treasure that tests the heart. If you harbor malice towards our Sect, you cannot pass the Heart-Questioning Mirror test!"

"Does the Heavenly Demon Sect not have a Heart-Questioning Mirror?"

Chen Hu asked curiously.

"The Heavenly Demon Sect does not!"

Long Yuqing shook her head. Before Chen Hu could ask, she began to explain the reason: "The Cultivation Techniques of the Heavenly Demon Sect are quite special. Most of them are of the type that benefits oneself at the expense of others, and they progress very quickly.

For us Cultivators of the Righteous Path, wanting to achieve the Golden Core Realm, even for someone with a good Spiritual Root like a Five-Spiritual Root, it takes more than ten years of continuous Cultivation to succeed.

But by practicing the Heavenly Demon Sect's Cultivation Techniques, as long as you have enough blood and flesh, you can reach the Golden Core Realm in just a few years.

Therefore, even if the Righteous Path sends spies into the Heavenly Demon Sect, once they practice their Cultivation Techniques, it is very difficult to resist the temptation of rapidly increasing their Cultivation, and thus they walk down that path to the end.

Moreover, once you join the Heavenly Demon Sect, even if you are a spy, you must commit slaughter.

Otherwise, if you don't even dare to kill, people will suspect you are a spy. Then they will kill and refine you in the name of you being a spy. It is precisely because of this situation that Righteous Path Sects rarely send spies to the Heavenly Demon Sect."

"Then what about you?"

Chen Hu looked at Long Yuqing: "How did you avoid the Heavenly Demon Sect's suspicion?"

Long Yuqing said: "I naturally had to kill people too. However, at first, I only killed evildoers; this was intelligence provided by my Revered Master. Later, after I became strong, I went to hunt down Demonic Cultivators. After I reached the Golden Core Realm,

I started targeting people within the Heavenly Demon Sect. Within the Heavenly Demon Sect, Disciples are allowed to kill each other, but it is not allowed to kill those below one's own Realm without reason."

At this moment, Chen Hu raised a question: "What will you do with your current Demonic Path Cultivation if you return to a Righteous Path Sect? Will you just abandon it?"

Long Yuqing said: "I can only abandon it and re-Cultivate. However, my Revered Master has prepared a large amount of cultivation resources for me. Even if I abandon my current Cultivation, I can recover my current level in at most three to five years. By the way, Fellow Daoist, do you want to join our Seven Emotions Sword Sect?"

Hearing this, Chen Hu fell into deep thought. But after thinking for only a moment, he decided to refuse.

His Foundation and roots were his underlings. If he joined the Seven Emotions Sword Sect, how could he recruit underlings? Therefore, he absolutely could not join the Seven Emotions Sword Sect.

Thus, he said: "I will not join the Seven Emotions Sword Sect. How about this, I will see you inside. After all, you are currently a Demonic Cultivator, so I will prevent you from being eliminated as a Devil Head by other Righteous Path Cultivators before you even see your Revered Master!"

Hearing Chen Hu say this, Long Yuqing thought about it and realized it was indeed a valid point, so she agreed: "Then thank you, Fellow Daoist!"

"Please!"

Immediately, the two stepped into the city and arrived in front of the Seven Emotions Sword Sect's station.

Chen Hu had long since sensed that there was a Spirit Severing Realm expert inside this station, but he did not know if it was Long Yuqing's Revered Master.

Just then, a group of Cultivators happened to walk out of the station.

One of them swept his gaze over Chen Hu and Long Yuqing, immediately locking onto Long Yuqing, and shouted sternly: "Audacious Demonic Cultivator, how dare you come to the outside of our Seven Emotions Sword Sect's station to show off your power? Die!"

The next moment, the opponent raised his hand and struck out with a sword light, heading straight for Long Yuqing.

Seeing that the sword light was about to hit Long Yuqing, Chen Hu reached out and grabbed the sword light. With a gentle squeeze, the sword light shattered with a poof.

Seeing this, that Nascent Soul Cultivator from the Seven Emotions Sword Sect was greatly alarmed. Just as he wanted to continue attacking, a massive aura enveloped them.

Under the shroud of this aura, everyone felt immense pressure.

"Swish!" A figure flashed by. A woman in green appeared before the two, wearing a veil.

The veil blocked Divine Sense probing, so one could only see the parts above her eyes.

"Revered Master, it's me, I am Yuqing!" Seeing this woman in green, Long Yuqing immediately became excited.

The woman in green's cold eyes immediately softened, and she beckoned: "Good girl, you have suffered these past few years. Come to Revered Master's side quickly!"

"Revered Master!" Long Yuqing immediately went to the woman in green.

The next moment, the woman in green's gaze fell upon Chen Hu: "Who is this Fellow Daoist?"

"Revered Master, this is Senior Chen. After I escaped from the Heavenly Demon Sect, I was hunted down, and Senior Chen saved me!" Long Yuqing hurriedly explained. Because Chen Hu had just released his Soul Transformation aura, knowing Chen Hu's Cultivation, she naturally felt embarrassed to call him Fellow Daoist anymore, so she changed her address to Senior.

"I see!" The woman in green's gaze toward Chen Hu also became softer: "Fellow Daoist Chen, thank you for saving my Disciple. Why not come inside for a chat?"

"No need!" Chen Hu said indifferently: "I just happened to be there. Since the person has been delivered, I will take my leave!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Hu turned into a beam of light and soared into the sky, quickly disappearing from everyone's sight.

After flying for tens of thousands of miles, Chen Hu landed in a city with a population of several million.

Although there were Cultivators in this city, the number was small, only a few hundred, and the highest Cultivation was only the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Locking onto the Foundation Establishment Realm Cultivator with the highest Cultivation in the city with his Divine Sense, he took a step and appeared in front of her.

Song Qiuhui was startled to see someone suddenly appear in front of her.

Fortunately, the other party made no unnecessary moves, which made her breathe a sigh of relief. She immediately stood up and bowed: "Song Qiuhui greets you, Senior. I do not know what instructions you have for visiting?"

This was her cultivation chamber. It had a Formation to isolate it. Even an ordinary Golden Core Realm expert could not easily break in.

And the person in front of her had appeared directly in the chamber; there was only one possibility: the other party was at least a powerful Golden Core Cultivator, or perhaps even above the Golden Core Realm.
