160: Arrival at Bai's house

And without this secret method to advance her Aptitude!

Old Demon Bai’s cultivation path in this life would likely be as difficult as in her previous life, even with those precious memories and various resources.

But the disparity from what she imagined was quite significant!

As soon as she sat down in a tavern, her servant, who had been out gathering information, returned.

“Young Miss!”

“All the members of the Bai Family Stockade have been killed by Yang Yucheng!”

“Now, where do we go from here? We have no home!”

Little Winter Melon said, filled with fear and dread.

If not for Old Demon Bai, her Young Miss, being right in front of her, she would truly be at a loss right now.

Though the world was vast, there was no place for her to belong!

“Sit down and eat.”

Old Demon Bai glanced at her and spoke simply.

But while her own mood could calm down, the Little Winter Melon in front of her, being just an ordinary person, absolutely could not.

He was heartbroken, tears and snot streaming down his face!

Seeing that Old Demon Bai, her Young Miss, was unwilling to bring up the matter, he assumed it was because her Young Miss was grieving, which was why she looked this way.

However!

Little Winter Melon still couldn’t help but whisper.

“Young Miss, that Yang Yucheng is definitely not a good person.”

“I heard that he previously used the blood of all the Bai family members from our Bai Family Stockade to refine a Demonic Path Magic Treasure, acting no different from those villains, yet he calls himself a Righteous Path Disciple!”

“So many of our Bai Family Stockade members all became his blood sacrifices; he’s simply a big bad guy!”

Little Winter Melon wiped her tears, her mouth full of accusations.

Fortunately, her voice was relatively low, and most of the people in this small tavern were Mortals.

Cultivators generally didn't pass through this remote, backward place, so she didn't cause any trouble. Occasionally, passersby who overheard, seeing Old Demon Bai's cultivator status, dared not speak a word more.

The world of immortal cultivators was not something these Mortals could touch.

“What?”

Suddenly.

Upon hearing this, Old Demon Bai’s heart, which had just calmed down, rippled once more.

Her expression was slightly agitated.

Old Demon Bai turned and grabbed Little Winter Melon’s collar, asking repeatedly.

“What did you just say?”

“Everyone in our Bai Family Stockade is dead!”

Little Winter Melon thought her Young Miss had gone mad, so she cried out even more sorrowfully.

“Not that sentence!”

Old Demon Bai narrowed her eyes and asked in a stern tone.

This instantly scared Little Winter Melon quite a bit!

Little Winter Melon was so scared that she immediately stopped crying and tremblingly repeated her earlier words.

“That Yang Yucheng is just a bad person!”

“Not that sentence.”

Old Demon Bai spoke again, and the force in her hands was much greater than before, as if she had the urge to beat Little Winter Melon severely if he didn’t comply.

Little Winter Melon was terrified.

So, she repeated sentence by sentence.

“That Yang Yucheng is truly detestable; he used all the members of our Bai Family Stockade as his blood sacrifices to refine a Demonic Path Magic Treasure; he’s simply a big bad guy!”

“Yes, that’s the one!”

Old Demon Bai’s lips curved into a slight, vivid smile.

Her right hand couldn’t help but clench into a fist!

Old Demon Bai was still confident.

Yang Yucheng surely didn't know the importance of the Bai family's blood Qi to her, so she only needed to seize the Opportunity.

This Magic Treasure, she might not be unable to obtain it.

Most of the blood Qi from the Bai Family Stockade, most of its members, were at most in the Lower Three Realms, or even at the lowest Spirit King level of the Middle Three Realms.

“Truly, Heaven does not wish for my demise!”

Old Demon Bai thought to herself.

This Blood-End Heavenly Splendor method was simply too important to her, so even with her thousand-year-old state of mind, she still couldn't completely calm down at this moment!

“Hahahahaha! Heaven truly treats me well!”

“Since that Yang Yucheng is performing such Demonic Path deeds, it saves me a lot of effort! The Righteous Path Sect, I, Old Demon Bai, can certainly go there!”

From beginning to end, Old Demon Bai!

All she wanted was the Magic Treasure and the blood Qi of the Bai Family Stockade members; she didn’t care about anything else!

Whether it was the Demonic Path or the Righteous Path.

As long as it could achieve her goal and make her stronger, everything else was merely incidental, just simple formalities!

If one were trapped by these formalities, these superficial things, and even ignored the most important essence within them.

Such a person would be extremely foolish!

But as soon as the two of them walked out of the small tavern, a flurry of news, like a raging storm, swept over them.

It was all about Yang Yucheng.

The rumors of her previous rampage and cunning schemes within the Fengyun Sect, ultimately emerging as the victor!

On the spot.

Little Winter Melon was stunned, even the bad words she had spoken behind his back were stuck in her throat, not daring to utter a single syllable.

She even fought with the air here, fearing that Yang Yucheng would send people to hunt down her, a remnant of the Bai Family Stockade!

Moreover, she couldn’t help but.

Lean her body close to Old Demon Bai, seeking some much-needed sense of security.

“Young Miss, are we going to die?”

Little Winter Melon asked.

Old Demon Bai wasn’t in the mood to bother with her; instead, she felt a sense of urgency.

“I need to hurry; one month? I don’t know if I can make it.”

The distance between the Bai Family Stockade and the Fengyun Sect was not as far as that between Town-Guarding Northern King City and the Bai Family Stockade, but it was still a considerable journey, and even more frightening was—

With her current strength.

Even if she met Yang Yucheng, she might not be able to obtain that Demonic Path Magic Treasure.

The premise for an exchange between two people is equality in strength and status; otherwise, if she rashly went to demand it, it would likely only arouse his vigilance, not to mention.

From the news and intelligence she had just received, it was not difficult to see Yang Yucheng’s terrifying aspects.

Gradually, Old Demon Bai came back to her senses.

Her heart was startled, and her eyes instantly became much sharper.

“What exactly is going on? In this destined battle, the person of reversed fate actually defeated the Child of Destiny? Is this storm caused by my butterfly effect?”

“Or, has this world itself changed?”

Old Demon Bai was puzzled for a moment.

This matter should not be because of her.

Since her return, she had done nothing.

And the news of Yang Yucheng destroying the Bai Family Stockade was even a little earlier than the time she returned.

It simply didn’t make sense!

“How truly interesting!”

“I used the Years Gu worm to return a thousand years ago. Do others perhaps have similar methods, or is it an extraterrestrial demon?”

Old Demon Bai had extensive knowledge, so the possibilities she could think of were certainly not few.

Old Demon Bai looked up, gazing at this world.

“Perhaps!”

“This world is already different from what it was before; it’s just another similar world. It’s normal for there to be differences, but I just hope those Opportunities don’t have too great a disparity.”

“Otherwise, I’ll still have to go through this long and bitter path of life again, which is quite troublesome!”
