Chapter 452: Succubus (22)

Two days later, a final decision was made: they were willing to use the Linghua Pearl. Master Yuanhui then personally contacted the head of the Buddhist sect and arranged for him to come to the Chen family. As for the favor owed, that would be repaid by her master. Moreover, according to her master, he had once saved the head of the Buddhist sect, so it was not unreasonable to offset the favor. Besides, her master was a medicine cultivator; who could guarantee their own safety for life? Therefore, befriending a medicine cultivator was entirely beneficial.

The head of the Buddhist sect was a kind-faced monk named Master Liaoting.

Soon, Chen's father withdrew all the servants from the mansion, telling them to leave and not to come to the Chen mansion to work for the time being.

Even Chen's father himself left. Although he wanted to stay, he couldn't; staying would only be a burden.

When he heard this, he already knew the purpose of his trip. He looked at Chen Guangyuan standing next to Chen's mother and then nodded.

Then he turned to Wen Wan and her group and said, “If I were to help Benefactor Chen with this matter, the person who brought him here back then would not let it go. So you should protect him outside and not let anyone interrupt you. Otherwise, not only will the two benefactors be in danger, but even I might not be able to get away completely.”

Wen Wan: "Master, don't worry, no one will disturb you."

Then Wen Wan took out her array bead. Looking at the array bead in Wen Wan's hand, Liao Ting said, "This is... I've never seen it before. It doesn't look like an ordinary array bead."

Wen Wan: "My master gave it to me for self-defense."

This is the Yin-Yang Separation Pearl. According to Qi Feng's advance notice, there will be a tough battle to fight. Chen Guangyuan is very important. Although Qi Feng did not elaborate on why Chen Guangyuan is so important, after all, so many demon seeds are being born, why would someone have to come out and obstruct them just for Chen Guangyuan?

Wen Wan could only barely maintain the Yin-Yang Separation and Union Formation for one hour.

Meanwhile, Chu Feng, Qi Ling, and Li Sha guarded the four corners of the Chen residence. Qi Feng and Wen Wan looked at Qi Feng, "If you are unwilling, I..."

"Does Miss not trust me? I will not do anything that Miss dislikes."

Wen Yan: "..."

In the end, Wen Wan still let Qi Feng guard a noodle.

Wen Wan also had the system report the situation inside and outside to her in real time, as she did not want any accidents to happen.

...

Soon, Linghua Pearl was activated.

Chen Guangyuan and his wife entered together.

At the same time, the weather suddenly changed. Just moments ago, the sky was clear and sunny, but in an instant, it turned gloomy, and there were even faint flashes of lightning on the clouds.

This was the first time Wen Wan had ever seen such a scene.

They dared not slacken their efforts even for a moment. Soon, a quarter of an hour passed, and nothing happened. However, a thick layer of thunderclouds gathered above the Chen residence, comparable to a cultivator undergoing tribulation.

Wen Wan originally thought that no demons would come, but she was wrong. Soon, a group of men in black appeared around the Chen residence. Their faces were not clear. They rushed over without saying anything. Most of them were blocked by Qi Ling and the others, while a few that slipped through the net entered Wen Wan's formation and were also trapped.

Wen Wan breathed a sigh of relief.

However, it was too early to relax. This was just a harmless appetizer; soon another batch would arrive, much stronger than the previous one.

A war of attrition.

This is really something; these demons are going to great lengths for a single demon seed.

Soon, everyone in Qiling was exhausted, especially Li Sha. She hadn't been cultivating for very long, and her bloodline was suppressed. Soon, a gap appeared. Wen Wan was worried that something might happen to her, so she quickly controlled the formation to absorb her and then threw her into the Chen residence. After that, she focused on the gap that had been missed, and the pressure instantly increased a lot.

An hour has passed.

Lightning had already begun to strike faintly, and Wen Wan's heart jumped into her throat.

Before Wen Wan appeared an old man in black robes.

“You can’t stop me. Although your formation is very powerful, if I can completely control it, even if I have a lot of people, I will suffer and I won’t be able to break through. It’s a pity that you are too young and cannot control the formation at all. So give up and let me take Chen Guangyuan away. I will spare your life and the lives of the others.”

Wen Wan: "Do you know who I am? I may not be able to beat you, but I am a disciple of the Mingyuan Sect. If you dare to make a move and I am injured in any way, the Mingyuan Sect will not let you off the hook, and Immortal Venerable Gu Yuan will raze your demonic den to the ground."

"Hahahahahaha..."

The other person laughed loudly.

"Little girl, you think you can scare me with Gu Yuan? Too bad, I'm not falling for that."

As he spoke, he attacked Wen Wan. Wen Wan immediately defended herself and then instantly felt the huge difference in strength.

She was just a beginner, a complete noob, and compared to this ancient monster who had lived for hundreds of years, the difference in their abilities was obvious. If the Yin-Yang Separation and Union Formation wasn't so powerful, even if she could only control a fraction of it, it would still give her some strength to resist the opponent.

Otherwise, they would definitely be doomed.

"If you're going to put up a stubborn resistance, then go and die."

Wen Yan: "..."

Under its attack, Wen Wan felt as if her internal organs were about to be crushed, and a sweet, fishy taste rushed into her throat.

"System, help me!"

System: [Hang in there a little longer, it will be over soon.]

Wen Yan: "..."

The next second, just as the man in black was about to unleash a fatal attack on her, the system was about to forcibly send the host back when a person suddenly appeared in front of her. It originally thought it was the male lead, as that kind of setting would fit, but it wasn't; it was... Chiffon.

Chiffon blocked the attack, but in doing so, she also released the demonic energy within her.

Looking at the person in front of him, he said, "Do you know who the young master is? If you hurt her today, the Blissful Sect will send people to destroy your stronghold tomorrow."

The man in black stared in shock at the two people before him, especially Wen Wan. "You're from the Blissful Sect? How could you possibly use a celestial sect's formation? And how could you be involved with disciples of the Bright Abyss Sect?"

Qi Feng: "This is a task given to the young master by the sect leader. There's nothing else to tell you. Get out of here now, or you'll die."

Wen Yan: "..."

Knowing what to do immediately, he quickly said, "Yes, my mother is the sect leader of the Blissful Sect. I am her only daughter. If anything happens to me, she will definitely send people to destroy your demonic den. If you have any eyes, get out of here."

The other party was clearly hesitant.

"Since you are a demon, why do you want to help the demon seed get rid of its demonic nature? I planted it, and I don't want to end up with nothing."

"He's the person Immortal Venerable Gu Yuan wants, and this is my mission for this trip down the mountain. So if you give him to me, the Blissful Sect will owe you a favor. Besides, you don't only have one demon seed, do you? People like you who spread your net far and wide must have plenty of demon seeds, right?"

"I only want him."

"Why?"

The other party didn't say anything, and the atmosphere instantly became tense. "Excuse me."

The old man said, "I will go to the Blissful Sect to apologize, but I must take this demonic seed with me today."

As she spoke, she attacked Qi Feng directly, and Qi Feng was instantly knocked down in front of Wen Wan.

Holy crap, this guy has no sportsmanship. Does he not eat black or white?

"Let me in, or I'll... kill him."

Wen Yan: "..."

That bastard, he actually threatened her! He clearly thinks that since he can't hurt her, he'll use the chiffon cake to threaten her. What a treacherous and cunning bastard!
