Under Zi Ling'er's guidance, Mo Tianxiao headed to the Green Mountain Sect and, with a casual wave of his hand, scattered the Bloodthirsty Gate cultivators who were attacking it.
The Green Mountain Sect was being steadily defeated under the combined assault of two Nascent Soul evil cultivators, several Golden Core elders, and numerous Foundation Establishment disciples. Relying solely on the Sect Leader, a single Nascent Soul cultivator, they simply couldn't hold out.
Fortunately, Mo Tianxiao and his companion arrived just in time. The Green Mountain Sect didn't suffer heavy casualties; at least its foundation remained intact.
"Many thanks for your assistance, Senior! I am Fang Yang, Sect Leader of the Green Mountain Sect. May I ask your esteemed name?"
At the mountain gate, Sect Leader Fang Yang, accompanied by a group of elders and disciples, looked up at Mo Tianxiao and the other figure in the sky, cupped his hands in salute, and inquired, his gaze filled with respect.
If not for the passing expert who lent a hand, the Green Mountain Sect would likely have faced a dire fate today.
Li Yu, a rogue cultivator. It was merely a convenient act.
Mo Tianxiao didn't linger. Leaving behind just his name, he departed from the place.
Although it was merely an incidental deed, his name was deeply engraved in the minds of everyone in the Green Mountain Sect.
Even decades or a century later, they would still remember that the rogue cultivator senior who saved their entire sect was named Li Yu.
Zi Ling'er continued to follow Mo Tianxiao.
"Senior Li, are you heading to the Immortal City?"
Zi Ling'er, looking in the direction Mo Tianxiao was advancing, asked.
"Immortal City? What place is that?"
Mo Tianxiao raised an eyebrow, turning to look at Zi Ling'er.
Regarding the Eastern Domain, he didn't know much, only that the Yao Chi Heavenly Palace had its headquarters there.
"The Eastern Domain Immortal City is a place name, and also the core region of the entire Eastern Domain. The major forces of the Eastern Domain—the Yao Chi Heavenly Palace, the Heavenly Sound Pavilion, as well as various great families and ancient clans—are all concentrated there," Zi Ling'er explained.
"Is that so."
Mo Tianxiao became thoughtful. Wasn't this Immortal City just like the territory near his Demon Sect? A gathering place for all the major forces and families of the entire Demon Province.
But the Demon Province wouldn't use a chuuni-sounding name like 'Immortal City'. The territory within tens of thousands of miles around the Demon Sect was under its management, so it was directly called the Netherworld Demon Sect.
Anyone entering the core area of the Demon Province was stepping onto the Demon Sect's turf.
"I plan to go to the Hundred Thousand Mountains. I'll likely pass through this so-called Immortal City."
The shortest distance between two points is a straight line. If he wanted to reach the Hundred Thousand Mountains by the fastest route, naturally he would have to pass through the Immortal City.
Moreover, he had plenty of time now and naturally wanted to explore more of the Eastern Domain. Perhaps he could even encounter quite a few talented individuals and earn some Villain Points and Fortune Points.
"Senior is going to the Hundred Thousand Mountains? That place isn't very welcoming to humans. You must be careful when you get there," Zi Ling'er kindly reminded.
It was well known that the demon beasts of the Hundred Thousand Mountains were not friendly towards humans. If a cultivator trespassed, a single misstep could mean never coming out again.
"Don't worry. I have connections in the Hundred Thousand Mountains."
Mo Tianxiao didn't mind at all.
He wasn't there to steal or rob; would these demon beasts just attack him for no reason?
If they really did, then they shouldn't blame him for not fighting honorably.
"Senior, may I follow you to the Immortal City?"
Zi Ling'er twisted the hem of her skirt, her expression appearing somewhat bashful.
She had barely managed to escape from the Zi Family and seek refuge at the Heavenly Sound Pavilion, but now her attempt had failed—she had not passed the assessment administered by the pavilion's elder.
This meant she wouldn't receive the protection of a Heavenly Sound Pavilion Saint Realm elder. In other words, she might be forcibly captured back by the Zi Family for a political marriage, to become the twentieth concubine of a young master from an ancient family.
The Zi Family was probably already sending people to look for her.
"I'm not necessarily going immediately. I'll probably wait for a while. If you can wait, then suit yourself."
Mo Tianxiao planned to wander around nearby, to see if he could find a Son of Destiny who was still in a lowly, un-grown state.
Among the Sons of Destiny he had encountered so far, he had basically already established good relations with them; at the very least, they wouldn't become his enemies.
As for that jerk Xiao Fan, he had holed himself up in the Great Thunderclap Temple. There was no chance to deal with him, so he could only wait for now.
For the time being, he hadn't placed Xiao Fan on his mind. No matter how fast the other grew, he certainly couldn't compare to Nan Gong Wan. Even if the other had the help of an old grandpa, he wasn't afraid.
A Great Emperor's remnant soul—could it compare to a reincarnated immortal?
Although Xiao Fan had the assistance of a Great Emperor's remnant soul, his good junior sister Nan Gong Wan had a master who was a reincarnated immortal.
"Then, Senior, can I follow you during this time?"
Zi Ling'er blinked her eyes, wearing a pitiful look. Although not deliberate, an aura of charm unconsciously emanated from between her brows.
She certainly didn't dare go back on her own now. With her strength, she'd probably be captured by the Zi Family before even reaching the Immortal City.
By staying by the senior's side, she could be safer.
The senior was at least a Divine Transformation realm cultivator. The people the Zi Family sent to capture her definitely wouldn't exceed the Divine Transformation level.
After all, she was just a mere Golden Core cultivator; it wasn't worth sending a family elder to apprehend her.
Mo Tianxiao narrowed his eyes, scrutinizing Zi Ling'er. His sharp, hawk-like gaze seemed to pierce through her in an instant.
Zi Ling'er tensed up, her heartbeat skipping a beat. Had her little scheme been seen through by the senior?
Oh no, oh no... If she angered the senior, wouldn't he refine her too??
Zi Ling'er was now extremely nervous. Her gaze towards Mo Tianxiao became somewhat evasive, very much like someone feeling guilty.
"Of course you can. Having a beauty for company will make the journey less boring."
Mo Tianxiao's tone shifted, a relaxed smile appearing on his face.
Being a peak Mysterious Profound realm cultivator, he could naturally see through Zi Ling'er's little schemes at a glance.
Although he didn't know exactly why she wanted to follow him, one thing was certain: she definitely had something to trouble him with, or wanted to use him.
But that didn't matter. He was just looking for an excuse to rope her in. Since she had something to trouble him with, she would have to pay a price.
He had always only helped his own people...
"Really? Thank you, Senior!"
It's settled! Everything is settled!
Zi Ling'er's heart leaped with joy. As long as she followed the senior and kept a low profile, she would surely be able to reach the Heavenly Sound Pavilion before being caught by the Zi Family, retake the assessment, become the personal disciple of a Saint Realm elder, and break free from the Zi Family's shackles!
It's settled. This future succubus will definitely become a capable right-hand underling for him.
Mo Tianxiao was also in a very good mood, even starting to hum a tune.
Among the people he was currently focusing on nurturing were Ye Chen, a Son of Destiny with golden fortune, and Zi Ling'er, a proud Daughter of Heaven with red fortune whom he would soon be roping in.
This team would only grow stronger in the future.
Having latched onto Mo Tianxiao, this rogue cultivator powerhouse, Zi Ling'er was exceptionally happy at the moment, unaware that she had already half-stepped into the trap meticulously laid out for her.
She also wouldn't know that today's decision would make her his lifelong cash cow (someone to be repeatedly exploited).
Following in Mo Tianxiao's footsteps, Zi Ling'er embarked on a path full of twists and turns. She would never forget this "wonderful and thrilling" experience.
e school belle recognized by the whole school, a genius girl from the kendo club. She also has a hidden identity, the youngest legendary demon hunter. Chen Shuo just transmigrated and found himself turned into a weak, helpless little vampire. He was caught by Su Xiyen and taken home at the very beginning. Since then, Chen Shuo's life creed only had two items. "First, classmate Su Xiyen is always right." "Second, if classmate Su Xiyen is wrong, please refer back to item one." Many years later, Chen Shuo, who had turned back into a human, led a pair of twins to appear in front of all the vampires to share the secret of how he turned back into a human. "It's simple, I tricked a female demon hunter into becoming my wife!"
ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
