Let's Eradicate the Heavenly Demon Sect

On the other hand, after leaving Su Luo, Li Siyi had no idea where to find her master.

She simply called out, "Master?"

Nangong Xiyun appeared before her almost instantly.

"Master."

She still had to show the proper respect.

Nangong Xiyun's first words were, "I owe you an apology."

"Why do you say that?"

"I've fallen for Su Luo."

Even though she already knew, hearing it directly still felt hard to accept.

Though it was disrespectful, Li Siyi couldn’t help but feel it was like an old cow eating tender grass.

But this was her master—she shouldn’t think that way.

"Why would Master fall for Su Luo?"

This was what Li Siyi truly wanted to know. In her eyes, her master had always seemed indifferent to most things.

And hadn’t Su Luo’s diary described Nangong Xiyun as difficult to handle?

How did they end up together without anyone noticing?

"It’s actually because of you. Back when Su Luo was at the Seven Stars Sword Sect, you often visited him. I got curious, so I started observing him in secret."

Nangong Xiyun reminisced—at first, it was just for amusement, but somehow, she ended up falling for him.

"Before I knew it, I was already in love," Nangong Xiyun sighed.

So that’s how it was.

"Master, are you serious about this?"

"Of course."

"Then that’s good."

Hearing her master’s confirmation, Li Siyi felt somewhat relieved.

Her master wasn’t at fault—falling for Su Luo wasn’t wrong.

Li Siyi just regretted not making her move sooner. If she had, Su Luo wouldn’t have overlooked her because of others.

But since Su Luo had just called her someone precious to him, she felt at ease.

Li Siyi asked Nangong Xiyun about Su Luo’s time at the Heavenly Demon Sect, wanting to know how her master saw him.

"Him? He’s always lounging in the sun, occasionally chatting with us about amusing things."

"Usually lazy, but when something important happens, he never hesitates—he acts when he needs to."

"Sometimes, unexpected things catch him off guard, but he always finds a way to handle them."

...

The two of them talked for a long time, sharing stories about Su Luo.

Su Luo had mentioned some of these things to her before, but his perspective was different.

At the very least, Li Siyi now knew more about his time at the Heavenly Demon Sect.

"Master, to be honest, even now, I still find it hard to believe you fell for Su Luo."

"I’m serious about this."

"Mm, I can tell from what you’ve said about him. But there’s one thing I want to say to you, Master."

Li Siyi spoke solemnly, "If Su Luo ever does something that disappoints you, don’t get angry. If you can’t accept it and don’t know what to do—leave it to me."

Because of the diary, Li Siyi felt she could understand Su Luo, but her master might not.

"Mm, I will."

Nangong Xiyun didn’t expose anything—Li Siyi deserved to have her own advantage.

"If Su Luo is at the Heavenly Demon Sect, please take good care of him, Master."

"I will."

After that, Nangong Xiyun had to return to the Heavenly Demon Sect—it was time to resume her role as the East Extreme Demon Lord.

Watching her master leave, Li Siyi still found the whole situation surreal.

But remembering how intimate she had just been with Su Luo, her heart swelled with sweetness again.

Someone precious… hehe…

...

The battle between Lin Xuan and Su Luo grew increasingly fierce.

Lin Xuan still had allies around him, all of them confident in him.

Su Luo thought it was hard to put on a show with so many people watching, but with fewer, it would work.

Besides, the fight had gone on long enough.

To put it bluntly, Lin Xuan was weak right now.

Su Luo kicked him away, then followed up.

He kept kicking Lin Xuan while retreating, pulling him away from the others.

Once they were alone, Su Luo immediately collapsed to the ground.

Lin Xuan understood—again? Seriously? He was just about to go all out.

You kick me this many times and now you’re leaving?

But Su Luo didn’t care what Lin Xuan thought. He shouted dramatically, "Damn you, Lin Xuan! How do you keep surpassing me again and again? I hate this!"

Then he fled in a deliberately pathetic manner.

The others who caught up were confused—why did it end so abruptly?

But this was a good thing.

"As expected of Lin Xuan! He took care of that little demon in no time!"

"Su Luo, you coward! Don’t run!"

"Don’t let him escape! After him!"

A crowd chased after Su Luo, none of them suspecting a thing.

They truly believed Lin Xuan was that strong.

Lin Xuan could only smile wryly—Su Luo ended things way too quickly. He had wanted to show off the strength he gained from the wildlands.

As the chase continued, the group grew larger—filled with disciples from sects Su Luo had recently antagonized.

Lin Xuan started worrying Su Luo wouldn’t be able to escape.

But he needn’t have. Su Luo was completely at ease, even slowing down to wait for them.

Lin Xuan noticed this odd behavior—Su Luo was trying to convey something.

But what?

The Heavenly Demon Sect?

Deliberately provoking hatred?

Could escape but choosing not to?

A series of realizations connected in Lin Xuan’s mind.

Could it be… the time has come?

Yes, it must be. The Heavenly Demon Sect was no longer what it once was—this was the perfect opportunity.

"Everyone, I have an idea," Lin Xuan stopped running.

The others halted as well, listening.

"Let’s destroy the Heavenly Demon Sect."

Lin Xuan had considered this before—the Heavenly Demon Sect’s arrogance during his time in the north had been unbearable.

And now, Su Luo had given him the confidence to act.

His words shocked everyone present.

They had all dreamed of destroying the Heavenly Demon Sect, but its strength had always seemed insurmountable.

Yet, looking at Lin Xuan, they inexplicably felt it was possible.

Yes, if they succeeded, it would be a glorious achievement.

"If Lin Xuan leads, I’ll follow!"

"Let’s join forces and wipe out the Heavenly Demon Sect!"

"It’s time to end their tyranny!"

The crowd’s fighting spirit was ignited.

"Then let’s make a plan."

There wasn’t much of a plan—just find and kill any Heavenly Demon Sect members they encountered, while gathering forces for a full-scale assault.

Each of them returned to their sects to rally stronger fighters.

Lin Xuan also prepared to persuade his own sect.

On the way, he ran into the sect master, who readily agreed to the plan.

He had already received a message from Nangong Xiyun—it was time to attack the Heavenly Demon Sect.

With Lin Xuan leading the charge, most sects quickly pledged their support.

Those who initially hesitated joined in the end, fearing isolation if they refused.

Everything went suspiciously smoothly.

So smoothly that Lin Xuan began to doubt—were these sects always this united?

But regardless, the assault began.

If they succeeded, Su Luo could finally return to the Seven Stars Sword Sect.

When the time comes, I'll definitely raise a toast to him.
