As a member of the Taoist sect, Xie Peng was familiar with the affairs of the Taiyi Sect and had certainly heard of the Demon-Slaying Platform.
All those heinous demons who were captured by the Taiyi Sect would be thrown onto the Demon-Slaying Platform.
At that time, the Taiyi Sect's mystical masters will jointly perform a wondrous mystical technique called—the Lightning Summoning Technique.
The great demons on the Demon-Slaying Platform will be shattered into flesh and blood by the lightning they attract, and then slowly refined on the Demon-Slaying Platform, eventually turning into the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
In the words of those mystical practitioners of the Taiyi Sect, this is called making use of waste.
If they were to cultivate directly using the demon cores and flesh of the demon race, they would surely fall into evil ways.
If they could use the special Demon-Slaying Platform to transform the demon cores and flesh of the demon race into pure spiritual energy, there would be no taboos.
However, only the most heinous demons would be treated this way by the Taiyi Sect.
Today, it's Xie Peng's turn.
"Seniors, I...I am not a demon, I am a human!" Xie Peng shouted in terror.
"I am not a demon, I am human, I am the princess of Jiyuan Kingdom, you cannot kill me!" Yan Qingwu hurriedly said.
“Our Demon-Slaying Platform can refine all evil spirits, so you can go with peace of mind!” Sun Yunwei sneered.
Now that things have come to this, these two culprits still dare to think they can live? They're dreaming!
"Activate the formation on the Demon-Slaying Platform!" With Yue Youcang's order, Sun Yunwei quickly used his mystical arts to activate the Demon-Slaying Platform.
Dozens of inner disciples followed Sun Yunwei in casting the lightning-summoning technique.
Purple lightning bolts appeared in the originally clear sky, but they didn't strike anywhere else; they only struck the Demon-Slaying Platform.
Xie Peng and Yan Qingwu only had time to let out a few screams before they turned into a blood mist, and even their soul power was completely obliterated.
Before long, the lightning slowly dissipated, leaving only abundant spiritual energy on the Demon-Slaying Platform.
Yue Youcang quickly used his mystical arts to guide the spiritual energy to the back mountain.
The back mountain is planted with many spiritual flowers, herbs and fruits, and it is the area that lacks the spiritual energy of heaven and earth the most.
"I really wish I could capture all those demons, throw them onto the Demon-Slaying Platform, and refine them all into spiritual energy." Sun Yunwei still felt unsatisfied.
Yu Yanzhong was his apprentice, and he had put a lot of effort into training Yu Yanzhong over the years, but in the end, Yu Yanzhong passed away.
“The demon race is powerful. If it weren’t for our Martial Aunt scaring them away, you would all be dead by now.” Yue Youcang said, frowning slightly. “Restarting the path to ascension is more important than anything else. Our Martial Aunt said she needs the help of these demons. She probably wants those demon kings to go and die first. In any case… as long as our Martial Aunt recovers her strength, they will not have a good end. You’ll have to wait a few years!”
Sun Yunwei nodded upon hearing this, and didn't say anything more.
Two days ago, he and the Grand Elder went to pay their respects to the Supreme Elders, hoping to persuade them to come out of seclusion and kill the demon kings, but they refused.
Of the ten elders, only the First Elder and the Tenth Elder were willing to help him.
With just the three of them and the sect leader, it would be very difficult for them to kill those six demon kings.
Moreover... the demon race had been hiding their strength beforehand, so perhaps... the six demon kings who appeared that day were not their last trump card.
Sun Yunwei certainly dared not act rashly.
“My martial aunt is back. Everyone is hoping she can restart her path to ascension. At this time, everyone is naturally afraid to risk their lives. Although I am the sect leader, I cannot force the Supreme Elder and the elders to kill those demon kings.” Yue Youcang shook his head and said.
As the sect leader, he was not like Ye Xianya from decades ago, who had absolute authority in the Taiyi Sect.
After all, the Taiyi Sect values strength above all else. His strength is comparable to that of the elders, so he probably can't defeat the Grand Elder.
As for those few supreme elders, they are even more formidable.
Only when her martial uncle Ye Xianya was in charge of the Taiyi Sect, from the oldest to the youngest, no one could rival her, and they all obeyed her completely.
I still need more experience.
"I know the sect leader has his difficulties, but I can wait a few years!" Sun Yunwei said with a sigh, "I hope Sect Leader Ye can recover his strength soon!"
"Don't worry, my martial uncle is no ordinary person. He will soon be stronger than us." Yue Youcang had complete confidence in Ye Xianya.
Back then, his father had been pestering his martial aunt for a while. Relying on his handsome face, which was unmatched in the Taiyi Sect, he wanted to become her Daoist partner. However, his martial aunt was not a shallow woman who only cared about looks. She not only rejected his father but also beat him up, leaving his face swollen.
Later, his father and mother got married and had him.
In Yue Youcang's memory, his father was always very afraid of his martial uncle.
Even on his deathbed, he told him that if his uncle were still alive, he would be willing to beat him up every day.
Now that my uncle has returned, my father is long gone.
Thinking of the past, Yue Youcang couldn't help but shake his head.
...
Tomorrow is the Lunar New Year's Eve family dinner.
Ever since learning that her daughter had been injured and would need to recuperate at Taiyi Gate for a month or so before returning, Ye Miaoyun had been extremely worried and had no interest in dealing with palace affairs.
A few months ago, their family's life changed dramatically after their daughter showed extraordinary talent for cultivation.
If it weren't for her daughter, Qi Jiu wouldn't have been able to become the Crown Prince so smoothly, and she wouldn't have been able to become the Crown Princess.
In Ye Miaoyun's heart, her daughter had always been incredibly strong and omnipotent, but now she was injured and would need a month to recover before she could come back.
In the past, she would worry terribly if her daughter got hurt occasionally, let alone now that she needs a month to recover.
Ye Miaoyun has been unable to eat or sleep well for the past two days, and is restless.
Qi Jiu was very worried when she saw this, and she told the servants not to bother her with palace matters anymore, but to let Ye Miaoyun rest well first.
“My lady, I asked Chengshuo, and he said that Xianya’s injury is not serious. The reason she has to stay at Taiyi Sect for a month or so is to improve her strength. When the time comes, Zhengzheng will go to bring her back. Don’t worry!” Qi Jiu entered the bedroom and looked at the somewhat thin Ye Miaoyun, and said softly.
"Really? You're not lying to me?" Ye Miaoyun asked quickly.
"Really!" Qi Jiu nodded. "Since we got married, when have I ever lied to you?"
Ye Miaoyun thought about it after hearing this.
It seems he really didn't lie to himself!
Thinking of this, Ye Miaoyun finally smiled: "As long as the injury isn't serious, it's fine. Although it's a bit of a pity that I can't spend the New Year with Xianya this year, there's plenty of time in the future, it doesn't matter!"
"If you're worried, you can prepare some food and supplies, pack them in a bundle, and have Zhengzheng deliver them to Xianya at Taiyi Sect," Qi Jiu quickly suggested to Ye Miaoyun.
I'm sure Zhengzheng won't refuse.
If the little one doesn't want to go, then I'll open the royal storehouse, especially the wine cellar, which is filled with countless fine wines. Zhengzheng can choose whatever she wants as payment.
