Because they were staying inside the Litang Sect, the numerous sects and powerful Families would not dare to impose all kinds of restrictions and barriers ostentatiously.
How could a guest put locks on the host's house, and several at that?
Besides, no matter how suicidal one was, they wouldn't dare come here looking for death.
With the seven great sects, plus the Litang Sect and other forces, practically the most powerful fighters of the southern part of the Nine Heavens Continent were gathered.
So this time, the surveillance... no, rather, the infiltration was quite smooth.
Carrying a high-level magical treasure, and using the Aura of Ice and Snow to conceal his presence.
Tang Yu took a walk around the palace where the disciples of the Maiden Sect resided, and felt full of nostalgia.
Nostalgia for those days when he pretended to be a cat.
"What a pity that now it's not appropriate to come pretending to be a cat, otherwise I could still greet them."
Tang Yu sighed regretfully. After living with them for a while, he even knew by heart the positions of some moles on their bodies.
After somewhat regretfully finding Ning Qingyan's room, Tang Yu opened the door and entered directly.
At that moment, Ning Qingyan was sitting on the bed, holding a scroll and familiarizing herself with knowledge about mermaids.
Tang Yu's sudden appearance startled her greatly while she was sitting.
Currently, she still had some way to go to reach the Divine Transformation Realm.
Moreover, Tang Yu had deliberately suppressed his presence.
If he hadn't entered directly, she wouldn't have even noticed.
Once she recovered from the fright, she used a spell to quickly close the door, and deployed several barriers to prevent being spied on inside her room.
"Don't get nervous, don't get nervous, it seems like we're having a forbidden romance."
Seeing how cute she looked when nervous, Tang Yu smiled sweetly.
"Y-y-y... do you want to die or what!"
Ning Qingyan was so scared that she even stammered. This guy really wasn't afraid of death.
If someone found out they were meeting secretly...
Maybe nothing would happen to him, but to her... she probably wouldn't have any choice but to be expelled from the sect.
"Don't worry, don't worry, I brought a treasure that hides my presence, they won't discover us."
Tang Yu gently pulled her to his chest while laughing: "Are you still afraid your husband will harm you?"
"You're not my husband."
Ning Qingyan rejected him with a blushing face, but her body, very honestly, allowed Tang Yu to hug her.
They hadn't seen each other for quite some time, and honestly, she had missed him a lot; sometimes, when she thought about it, she even felt a little hurt.
After all, they couldn't see each other openly.
"I already knew you were playing with my feelings. You're only interested in my pure and immaculate body. Ah, well, as long as you're happy..."
Tang Yu sighed dramatically.
"Who asked you to?!"
Ning Qingyan looked at him with disdain: "What kind of treasure or technique did you use to hide your presence so well? Surely it's not with good intentions."
"Who has bad intentions? And you even accuse me, your husband...!"
Tang Yu hadn't finished speaking when footsteps were heard outside the door.
Noticing someone was coming, Ning Qingyan suddenly became very nervous: "Hide quickly, they've come to look for me!"
"Alright, alright, I know."
Tang Yu quickly lay down on the bed, took out a talisman, stuck it on himself and his body became transparent, disappearing.
He had just finished using the invisibility talisman.
Then there was a knock on the door. Outside, a sweet female voice called:
"Sect leader, may I come in?"
"Sister Yu Jie, if you want to come in, come in. Don't call me that."
A resigned expression appeared on Ning Qingyan's face; lately these girls kept joking by calling her sect leader.
"Eh, sooner or later you'll be, and we just want to enjoy some of that future glory."
A mature and curvy woman entered with a provocative smile in every gesture.
With her, several cultivators of the Maiden Sect also entered.
Seeing that all had arrived, Ning Qingyan didn't dare move on the bed, lest someone sat on top and discovered the scoundrel lying there.
"Stop joking, what business do you have?"
Ning Qingyan asked quickly, wanting to get rid of them as soon as possible.
"Can't we come to see you if there's nothing? Just because you're going to be the sect leader are you going to forget the sisterhood bonds?"
Said a slim young woman smiling, causing all the others to burst out laughing.
Ning Qingyan was about to reply when suddenly she felt someone touch her butt unexpectedly.
Her face blushed slightly; she immediately knew it was Tang Yu fooling around.
But now she didn't dare react. She even had to pretend nothing happened, and in the calmest tone she could manage, said:
"Alright, alright, if you have something to say, say it. This time we didn't come for a visit."
"It's about the demonic beasts. According to the Litang Sect, the first wave of attack has already ended. By custom, that first offensive is just an appetizer. The second will be much fiercer. In the battle zone we have to defend, it would be best to form a formation to fight. After all, we didn't bring many experts this time..."
The voluptuous cultivator named Yu Jie started talking to Ning Qingyan about the combat plans.
While listening, Ning Qingyan nodded occasionally.
"Sister Ning, why is your face a little red?"
After finishing speaking, Yu Jie asked with a slightly doubtful expression.
"Lately I want to practice a fire technique, and I just activated it a bit earlier. That's why I feel some heat."
Ning Qingyan lied with a little guilt.
"Then it surely doesn't suit your constitution. If you can't practice it, don't force yourself. That would be the plan. Do you have any other opinions?"
After expressing her concern, Yu Jie asked her that question.
"I'll give you an answer later. First, I want to think carefully about the details."
Ning Qingyan smiled bitterly.
That answer made the girls nod; no wonder she was the younger sister Ning, always so prudent and sensible in her actions.
—Then we'll go back first. If there's any problem, just call us —they said before saying goodbye.
After the young women left, Ning Qingyan waited a while before jumping off the bed. Her face was so red she almost cast a spell directly at the bed.
That guy!
He had dared to attack her by surprise!
While fixing her skirt, she grumbled furiously:
—Tang Yu!! You're a pervert!!
—Hey, don't say it like that. Look at yourself in the mirror —said Tang Yu, suddenly appearing, his body ceasing to be invisible, and pointing to the nearby mirror.
—What's wrong with me?
Ning Qingyan looked at herself in the mirror.
—You're so beautiful, you have an amazing body... If I could resist, then I wouldn't be a man. And I'd be denying your beauty! —said Tang Yu with a fake seriousness.
"..."
Ning Qingyan lunged at him and gave him a hard bite on the arm. That guy always used those twisted theories to fool her!
Tang Yu let her bite without moving. A moment later, Ning Qingyan released him on her own. Seeing that she had left such a deep bite mark that it even bled, she got alarmed:
—Why didn't you use your energy to protect yourself!?
—I didn't want to. I'll bite you now! —exclaimed Tang Yu, picking her up in his arms and biting her lips in retaliation.
After a while of struggling, Ning Qingyan, panting, pushed him away, embarrassed and annoyed:
—You're a damn... you only know how to annoy me.
—It's your fault for being so beautiful. If you looked like Fang Meiyun, I would have killed you in our first fight —joked Tang Yu with a cheeky smile.
With so many compliments in a row, Ning Qingyan didn't know how to react.
Since she was little, Fang Meiyun never allowed her to have contact with men.
With someone as skilled as Tang Yu, she, who was a complete innocent in love matters, had no way to defend herself.
Silently, she took out some medicine from her storage ring and offered it to him:
—Take this, put it on.
—I don't want to. It's a gift from you! I'm going to keep it. No one will know this mark was left by the future leader of the Maiden Sect, only the two of us! —said Tang Yu, winking at her.
—I don't want to hear your nonsense —snorted Ning Qingyan, putting the medicine back. Then she took out a jade scroll and threw it to him.
—Actually, I wanted to look for you these days. Look at this.
—What is it?
Tang Yu received it and scanned it with his spiritual sense. It was a divine technique that required forging a special artifact with certain materials and sealing part of the soul inside. If the main body died, that part of the soul could survive.
—Don't tell me this belonged to Fang Meiyun...
Although he said it, in his heart he was already certain.
And just as expected, Ning Qingyan nodded:
—I found it while going through the master's belongings. I myself went to buy the materials when she began forging that artifact. Although the master's soul tablet broke, she's probably still alive…
Remembering all this, her mood became complicated.
The master-disciple relationship between them was already completely broken. Knowing that Fang Meiyun was still alive did not bring comfort, but worry.
Knowing her character, if she had the chance, she would undoubtedly seek revenge against Tang Yu.
—It's not a big problem. It's just a fragment of the soul. It will take years for her to return to her former level. I'll be fine —said Tang Yu with a carefree smile.
Ning Qingyan thought about it. He was right. Even if her master managed to return to her former power, with Tang Yu's talent, by then he would have far surpassed that level.
—Well... if there's nothing else, go. I have to talk with the girls inside in a while —said Ning Qingyan, pointing to the door in a farewell tone.
—I'm not leaving.
—Why?
—You.
—????
—Come cultivate! I'm going to help you train! —said Tang Yu as he pulled out an ancient zither and gave it to Ning Qingyan. Then he himself took out a flute and placed a barrier in the room so the sound wouldn't escape.
Ning Qingyan, with a flushed face, hugged the zither. She hesitated for a moment but finally placed it on her lap and began to play.
Mmm... it wasn't that she felt very comfortable, she just wanted to reach the Divine Transformation cultivation level as soon as possible.
…
In the Wild Beast Mountain Range.
A middle-aged cultivator, at the peak of the Golden Core Realm, searched tirelessly through the mountains.
Beside him flew an elderly woman of a similar level.
—Zhou Yunsheng, we've been searching for three days. We still haven't found any trace of that pig demon. His level isn't high, but he's very cunning.
The old woman murmured as they flew.
—That demon is extraordinary. If we catch him and train him as a spiritual beast, it would be wonderful!
Zhou Yunsheng's eyes shone. His sect was a beast taming sect.
For him, that demonic beast was more attractive than a supreme beauty.
He, Zhou Yunsheng, had to catch it at all costs!
