140: Chapter 140 Sisters in Misfortune
Looking at the petite and clinging Long Feifei beside him, Xu Que chuckled inwardly.
"Little thing, do you really think there is only such a thing as an exhausted ox?"
"Oh, Little Xu, you're finally back. Can you teach us cultivation techniques now?" Long Meili walked out of the Space Capsule and excitedly approached Xu Que.
"Of course!"
Seeing Liu Ruyan and Liu Mei walk out of another Space Capsule, Xu Que nodded with a smile.
Immediately, with a wave of his arm, two streaks of light shot into the foreheads of Long Meili and Liu Mei.
"Babies, I am passing this 'Xuantian Transformation Scripture' to you. It is for the men in your families to study. As for the women, pass on the cultivation techniques you are practicing to them. I need to go to the outside world to handle some important matters, so I will leave these things to you!"
"Hubby, are you going to go catch women again?" Long Feifei hugged Xu Que's arm and asked, pouting.
Liu Ruyan stood to the side, looking at Xu Que tenderly with a smile on her face.
"What do you mean 'catch women'? Is your husband that kind of person? I'm going out to handle serious business!" Xu Que suddenly reached out and slapped Long Feifei on her bottom, saying with a straight face.
"Th... then alright!"
"That's a good girl. Come here, let hubby give you a kiss."
Pulling Liu Ruyan and Long Feifei into his arms and kissing them on the cheeks, Xu Que's figure vanished.
...
Wangqing Sect.
Two female figures appeared outside the Mountain Protection Array.
"Mother Empress, we..."
Before the woman in the moon-white long dress could finish, the woman in the peach-colored palace attire raised her hand to interrupt her.
"A-Li, do not call me Mother Empress from now on!"
The woman in the moon-white long dress was slightly stunned, then asked in confusion: "Mom, has something happened to the Wangqing Sect? Why is there not a single disciple outside the Mountain Protection Array?"
The woman in the peach-colored palace attire furrowed her delicate brows, feeling a wave of confusion in her heart.
Logically speaking, as one of the four major powers of the Yunhuang Continent, there should be disciples guarding outside the Mountain Protection Array!
Why was there not a single person?
Could something have really happened?
Just then, the Mountain Protection Array was suddenly opened from the inside.
Following that, a woman wearing a fire-red glazed long dress with a cold and glamorous aura walked out.
"Little Sister Yueli, what brings you to our Wangqing Sect?"
"Senior Sister Wuxia, could you let my mother and me stay in the Wangqing Sect for a while?" the woman in the moon-white long dress, Eldest Princess Chu Yueli, asked.
Hearing this, Senior Sister Xue Wuxia felt a wave of confusion, but still nodded gently: "Let's go, let's go inside and talk."
Subsequently, Pei Xueyi and Eldest Princess Chu Yueli followed behind Senior Sister Xue Wuxia and walked into the Mountain Protection Array.
"Senior Sister Wuxia, why can't we see any of your sect's disciples? Has something happened?"
Listening to Eldest Princess Chu Yueli's words, Senior Sister Xue Wuxia fell silent for a moment, then slowly recounted the plight the Wangqing Sect had faced during this period.
Unknowingly, the three of them had walked in front of Wangchen Hall.
"The entire sect's disciples were actually abducted by a lecher named Xu Que? This... how is this possible? Senior Sister Wuxia, with the cultivation levels of Junior Sister Wumian and the others, how could they have been abducted by a thief?" Eldest Princess Chu Yueli asked, dumbfounded.
Pei Xueyi also found it unbelievable.
A massive Wangqing Sect, actually bullied to this extent by a guy at the early stage of the Nascent Soul Realm? This is...
"That lecher Xu Que claims to be a disciple of Immortal Venerable Beixuan and possesses various bizarre methods that are impossible to guard against!"
Senior Sister Xue Wuxia sighed and continued: "I had captured him previously and sealed his cultivation. Later, when Junior Sister Nalan Yanran was undergoing her tribulation, I left the sect. I didn't expect that upon returning, all the sect's disciples had been abducted by that lecher. He even left behind a projection stone..."
As she spoke, the flames of anger in Senior Sister Xue Wuxia's eyes rose again!
The things that lecher Xu Que did were truly infuriating!
Sigh!
With the junior sisters now in the hands of that lecher, I fear that they have already...
Waves of heartache suddenly struck, and Senior Sister Xue Wuxia's face turned pale again!
"Senior Sister Wuxia, with such a major event happening in the sect, why hasn't your Sect Master come out of seclusion?"
Hearing this, Senior Sister Xue Wuxia said softly: "No one can enter the place where Master is in seclusion; we have no way of notifying her. However, Master should be coming out of seclusion in these next few days!"
"There is one more thing. A few days ago, a man in a black robe appeared in the forest a thousand miles away from the sect. His name is Ye Hei, and he claims to be the twelfth disciple under Immortal Venerable Beixuan. He also said that Xu Que is his junior brother. He... he abducted the girl Shiya."
As soon as Senior Sister Xue Wuxia finished speaking, Eldest Princess Chu Yueli stood up abruptly: "What? Shiya was abducted?"
Looking at Eldest Princess Chu Yueli's worried and shocked eyes, Senior Sister Xue Wuxia sighed helplessly!
She couldn't even handle Xu Que, and now another Ye Hei had appeared!
It was too torturous!
Sigh!
She sighed helplessly: "It was already too late when I discovered Shiya. That Ye Hei took Shiya and vanished instantly, just like that lecher Xu Que, disappearing into thin air without leaving any trace of aura."
"This... I shouldn't have sent her to collect the spirit stone mine. It was I who harmed Shiya!" Eldest Princess Chu Yueli slumped into the chair, murmuring to herself with a sorrowful expression.
"Little Sister Yueli, this is not your fault. The ones at fault are that lecher Xu Que and Ye Hei."
"That's right, A-Li, it's all the thieves' fault, you shouldn't blame yourself."
Watching Eldest Princess Chu Yueli's self-reproachful appearance, Senior Sister Xue Wuxia quickly changed the subject: "By the way, why did you suddenly come here? Has something happened?"
After saying this, Senior Sister Xue Wuxia looked at Pei Xueyi and Eldest Princess Chu Yueli in confusion.
As the Eldest Princess and Empress of the Great Yan Dynasty, why would they suddenly run to their Wangqing Sect?
It was truly puzzling!
"Sigh!"
Pei Xueyi let out a long sigh and slowly recounted a secret of their Great Yan Dynasty.
It turned out that their Great Yan Dynasty's Old Ancestor Chu Cangxuan had his cultivation stuck at the peak of the Integration Realm for thousands of years, unable to break through due to limitations in his innate talent and aptitude.
Now, seeing that his lifespan was nearing its end, he could only sleep to reduce consumption. However, he awoke once every sixty years and needed to cultivate using special physique cauldrons to maintain his vitality, and even hoped to use this to break through to the Lianxu Realm.
Empress Pei Xueyi and Eldest Princess Chu Yueli both possessed the Profound Yin Physique, containing extremely Yin power within their bodies. Their Yin energy was pure and abundant. For male cultivators practicing evil arts, harvesting this type of physique could quickly replenish their Yang energy and break through bottlenecks.
Therefore, whenever the Old Ancestor of the dynasty awoke, the two of them would inevitably bear the brunt of it.
Listening to Pei Xueyi's account, Senior Sister Xue Wuxia couldn't help but frown, a trace of worry flashing in her eyes.
The Old Ancestor of the Great Yan Dynasty was at the peak of the Integration Realm, while her Master, if she succeeded in breaking through this time, would only be at the early stage of the Integration Realm. Although her Master was young and had vigorous blood and energy, the difference in cultivation was there. Could her Master resist?
If the Supreme Elder were still alive, there would be no need to worry about a peak Integration Realm cultivator.
But the Supreme Elder had passed away a hundred years ago!
"Wuxia, we..."
"Aunt Pei, as long as your whereabouts haven't been exposed, it's impossible for him to find this place so quickly! You and Yueli should stay in our sect for now, and we will discuss this after Master comes out of seclusion in a few days!"
"Then thank you, Wuxia!"
Subsequently, Senior Sister Xue Wuxia arranged for the two of them to stay in the side courtyard to the right of the courtyard where Xu Que had been detained.
Nalan Yanran remained in the secret chamber of the left side courtyard, cultivating in seclusion and quietly waiting for Xu Que to appear.
She had made full preparations; as long as Xu Que dared to appear, she would definitely make him pay the price.
...
In the Cangyun Mountain Range, one thousand kilometers away from the Wangqing Sect, Xu Que's figure appeared again in the forest.
I only have three sticks of 'I Love One Stick of Wood', and it would be too wasteful to use one on Senior Sister Xue Wuxia!
Now that the Wangqing Sect is being guarded by Senior Sister Xue Wuxia again, it is truly a bit difficult to go in and abduct Nalan Yanran.
I must think of a way to first lure Senior Sister Xue Wuxia out of the Wangqing Sect.
