195: Mysterious little girl

"What are you doing here? Are you also planning to head to the Emperor Pass?"

Hearing Lin Ye's inquiry, Xiang Tiange was just about to explain when Cheng Dezhu immediately jumped out: "Master Lin, it's like this. We are indeed planning to go to the Emperor Pass, but we encountered a group of idiots here."

"They were besieging a little girl!"

"Thinking of how I, Cheng Dezhu, have always revered Master Lin's teachings, living in harmony with my fellow Disciples within the Sect, naturally, I should be helpful when outside!"

"How could I remain indifferent when seeing such a scene!!!"

Cheng Dezhu looked righteous and awe-inspiring.

The Cultivators on the ground, who had been tied up like zongzi, widened their eyes, seemingly cursing Cheng Dezhu for his shamelessness.

Just as he mentioned the little girl, Lin Ye also turned his gaze not far away.

Sure enough, a little girl was standing there.

The little girl looked to be only eleven or twelve years old, similar in age to Lin Yueer.

She was dressed in a light pink dress, the hem swaying gently like peach blossoms in full bloom during spring, revealing a pair of calves as white as lotus roots.

Her hair was styled into two cute buns, adorned with a few delicate small flowers, making her look even more playful and adorable.

Her face was round, her skin as white as snow, with a faint blush, as if she were a ripe peach.

What was most striking were her bright, large eyes, as pure as glazed glass that had never been tainted by anything.

Moreover, there was not a trace of cultivation on her body.

This was somewhat strange; no cultivation? How did she enter this Lingxu Battlefield, and how did she survive?

Furthermore, looking at the blood and severed limbs on the ground around her, there was not a hint of fear on the little girl's face.

Just as Lin Ye was observing the little girl, she skipped over to Lin Ye, extended a snow-white little hand, and waved it at him twice.

"Hello, Big Brother!"

"Hello."

Lin Ye felt a bit of interest in the little girl before him: "What is your name?"

"I don't know!"

The little girl shook her head, seemingly a bit disappointed, but in an instant, she revealed a cute smile: "How about you give me one, Big Brother?"

"..."

Lin Ye squinted his eyes, looking at the little girl in front of him.

He felt an aura from her, just like the aura of those ancient creatures he had sensed in that mural before.

It seems this little girl is a native of the Ancient Battlefield?

But didn't creatures of the Ancient Battlefield that possess life and consciousness only appear within the Emperor Pass?

Why could this little girl be outside?

"Big Brother!"

Seeing that Lin Ye remained silent, the little girl spoke again: "I want you to give me a name, okay?"

Seeing this, Cheng Dezhu spoke to the crowd with a proud face: "Did you see that?! This is the charm of Master Lin, and he is our Saint! The direction he points his sword is our goal to advance towards!"

Lin Ye ignored Cheng Dezhu's nonsense, seemingly in deep thought, and after a moment, smiled: "I have been thinking about a name, and since you asked me to name you, I will. How about I call you Dazhuang?"

"Huh?"

The little girl's pupils constricted, and the smile that had been on her face stiffened slightly.

Then, she slowly said: "I see, so it's... Miaoxuan, right? I heard them call you Lin Ye earlier, so I will be called Lin Miaoxuan!"

"No, no!"

Lin Ye shook his head and said solemnly: "You will be called Dazhuang! From now on, you are Lin Dazhuang!"

Lin Miaoxuan's little face twitched a few times, and she spoke again: "Alright! Big Brother, I will be called Lin Miaoxuan. Thank you, Big Brother, for the name."

"Dazhuang! Dazhuang! Lin Dazhuang! How many times do I have to say it!"

"Hoo!!!"

Just then, a tied-up Cultivator crawled to Lin Ye's side like a silkworm cocoon and directly used the gravel on the ground to tear the cloth band off his mouth.

He shouted to Lin Ye: "This Cultivator! Please save me! These people are all Demonic Cultivators! They have been deceiving you, you..."

"Presumptuous!!!"

"How dare you!"

At this moment, Cheng Dezhu rushed up and started punching and kicking the Cultivator.

Because of his overly reliable nature, the Lord of Blissful Demons had specifically told him about Lin Ye.

He also told him why the Supreme Bliss Holy Land was renamed to the Righteous Qi Sect.

At this time, Cheng Dezhu naturally wanted to block that Cultivator's mouth, not to hide secrets for the Lord of Blissful Demons, but because he felt that if Lin Ye discovered he was in a Demonic Sect, his Dao Heart would easily collapse.

If a Cultivator loses their Dao Heart, they are no different from a cripple; never mind proving the Dao in the future, their cultivation would likely plummet.

They might even become a lunatic, lost and dispirited forever.

"Damn it! Let you spout nonsense!"

Cheng Dezhu cursed while kicking the Cultivator's mouth hard.

The other Disciples of the Righteous Qi Sect were also terrified.

They should have just slaughtered all these idiots earlier; if it weren't for wanting to find out the location of the Opportunity, they wouldn't have left them alive.

Although they didn't know why they had to disguise themselves as members of the Righteous Path, they figured it must have something to do with the Saint's quirks, so being exposed to his face was terrifying for them.

If the Sect blamed them, who could bear that responsibility?

Only Xiang Tiange had no reaction to this matter, and his gaze towards Lin Ye carried a hint of depth.

"Alright!"

Lin Ye walked up to Cheng Dezhu and stopped him.

"Master Lin! Do not believe him! He is spouting nonsense here. I am afraid he will pollute your ears, so let me handle it for you."

"No need!"

Lin Ye shook his head, then came to the Cultivator and smiled: "You said they are Demonic Cultivators?"

"Yes!!! Yes! They are all Demonic Cultivators!!!"

Seeing Lin Ye's kind expression, the Cultivator almost burst into tears.

Just now, this Cultivator had been far away and hadn't heard Cheng Dezhu call Lin Ye 'Master Lin', only feeling that Lin Ye's cultivation was powerful. If they were both of the Righteous Path, they would definitely fight these people together.

In that case, wouldn't he be saved!

He hadn't even gone to the previous Opportunity site yet; he couldn't just die here so inexplicably.

Seeing that Lin Ye remained silent for a long time, fearing he wouldn't believe him, he hurriedly continued: "They are Demonic Cultivators, and they are from the Jile..."

Pfft!!!

The next second, countless blood-colored thorns emerged from Lin Ye's body and pierced directly through the Cultivator's mouth.

"Wooo..."

The intense pain made the Cultivator widen his eyes, and his body twitched continuously.

He never imagined why Lin Ye, with his kind smile, would attack him!
