After gossiping with Le Luoxi for a while, Qiyue took the completed sketchbook from Le Luoxi, along with some toys and items that the Nine-Tailed Fox had played with, and went down the mountain to hand these things over to Huo Xun.
He also took the spirit stones he had earned over the past few months from Huo Xun.
After carefully storing the spirit stones, Qiyue received a message from Jin Linshu that Mu Linghan had come down the mountain and was at Wanbaolou, so she went there.
Mu Linghan was no longer the gloomy boy he once was. After half a year apart, he had grown much taller and had become more reserved and composed.
"It seems that something has changed in the three holy lands. A few days ago, elders from Yunzong, Kunlun Holy Land and Holy Sect came and implied that Liuyunzong should choose a side and submit. I learned from the inner sect elder that the sect leader has decided to submit to Holy Sect."
"I'm worried they might be up to you."
Qi Yue said expressionlessly, "It's alright. They're just a bunch of rabble. They won't be able to cause trouble for long."
Mu Linghan was somewhat surprised: "Could it be that you had already guessed the current situation and already had a plan?"
Qiyue looked at him expressionlessly: "I want to know, what are you thinking?"
Mu Linghan was slightly taken aback. Was she concerned about his opinion?
He lowered his eyes and said, "I'll do whatever you say."
"Do you still want revenge?" Qi Yue looked at him, her dark eyes unfathomable.
Mu Linghan's eyes flashed with murderous intent: "I think about it all the time."
"Alright, now your chance has come." Qi Yue smiled, looked at him, and handed him a pill.
"This pill can open the sacred ground of the Liuyun Sect's inheritance. Once you enter the sacred ground, you can become the sect master of the Liuyun Sect, and no one can resist you. But you must also understand that this path is destined to be full of difficulties and dangers. You may have the life to take this position but not the life to sit on it, unless..."
At this point, she changed the subject: "Unless you have your own power and backing."
Mu Linghan's eyes widened in surprise: "Who?"
"Kunlun Sacred Land"
Qi Yue slowly uttered these four words, and Mu Linghan was stunned. Wouldn't that mean he would still become someone else's puppet?
What Qiyue wanted was for him to become a puppet of the Kunlun Holy Land.
Only in this way can she truly control the chaotic battle among the five sects.
A mountain cannot hold two tigers, let alone three.
"Do you still remember what I taught you before?" She stared intently at Mu Linghan.
Mu Linghan's heart stirred, and he immediately understood her meaning, and put the pill away.
Next up is Nalan Qing.
Nalan Qing was clearly troubled when she arrived. When she spoke of this matter, she sighed deeply and no longer wanted to call her father "father": "Nalan Hu is neutral on the surface, but in private he has already given me to Luo Wuji so that I can cultivate with him."
She practically spat out the last two words through gritted teeth.
Qi Yue raised an eyebrow: "What did the other elders of the Free and Unfettered Sect say?"
"That's because the elders' attitudes were inconsistent on the surface, but they had secretly submitted to the other two sects. The current Xiaoyao Sect is simply a mess."
Nalan Qing clenched her fists, her eyes filled with barely suppressed killing intent: "If I weren't outmatched by Luo Wuji, I would have killed him!"
Qiyue handed her some pills for breaking through to higher levels: "Don't rush, you'll have plenty of opportunities to take revenge. Right now, your priority is to break through."
“But… what about Luo Wuji and Nalan Hu…” There was hesitation on her face.
Qiyue patted her hand: "You don't need to worry about this. The most important thing right now is that you must break through to the Nascent Soul stage as soon as possible. Only in this way can you truly control the Free and Unfettered Sect."
“Nalan Hu would not agree to this,” Nalan Qing shook his head.
Qi Yue narrowed her eyes: "Things aren't over yet, how do you know he won't agree? As for you, after all this time, how many people in the sect truly trust you?"
Upon hearing this, Nalan Qing's tightly furrowed brows relaxed: "After the incident in the secret realm, many elders of the sect no longer have a high opinion of Li Ze. In addition, my cultivation has improved very quickly. Although the elders have their own ideas, they still have high hopes for me."
Qi Yue curled her lips, a strange smile playing on her lips.
Nalan Qing didn't say anything more; she vaguely understood her master's meaning.
"Master, your junior disciple has arrived and wishes to see you," Jin Linshu's voice came from outside.
Qiyue waved her hand, and Nalan Qing hid. Not long after, Ji Su rushed in and knelt down as soon as she saw him.
"Junior Uncle, if you don't come soon, my master will die..."
"What!?" Qiyue was shocked.
He immediately grabbed Ji Su by the collar, lifted him off the ground, and asked urgently, "Tell me! What happened? How did Seventh Senior Brother get injured!"
Ji Su swallowed hard.
His face looked rather grim: "You'll understand once you come with me."
Qi Yue suppressed her anger and hurriedly followed Ji Su to where Yun Huai was, but the road seemed to be getting worse and worse.
Looking at the dense forest, she frowned.
He grabbed Ji Su and said, "Didn't you say that Seventh Senior Brother was going to die? Could it be that he was injured in a place like this?"
Ji Su didn't speak. A sweet, cloying, and fragrant scent wafted through the air. Qi Yue's eyes widened immediately, realizing what was happening. She eagerly ran towards the source of the scent.
I witnessed a scene that made me blush.
Two figures were intertwined within the crimson gauze curtains, one hand hanging limply, its thin frame bearing a faint red mole on its wrist.
"Iris! Let go of my senior brother!!!" Qi Yue roared as a completely naked, alluring woman got off the bed.
Her eyes lit up when she saw Qiyue: "It's you! Little Feifei, we've met before~".
July's face turned green: "I'll see your mother!"
Iris was displeased: "Why are you yelling at me? I didn't mean it. You know I'm in heat right now and can't control myself~".
Iris's voice was soft and seductive, but Qiyue got goosebumps all over. She rushed over and stuffed a handful of pills into Iris's mouth.
Iris shuddered.
The pink all over her body faded, and her eyes became serious. She calmly put on her clothes and looked at Qiyue with shining eyes: "Little Feifei has really learned some skills now. She even has such powerful pills. You must give your older sister more in the future."
"Get lost!" Qi Yue shouted irritably.
Yun Huai finally peeked out from under the gauze curtain. He was extremely pale and thin, with dark circles under his eyes. He looked at Qi Yue with a helpless expression.
"Junior sister, save me..."
Qi Yue punched him in the head and yelled, "Tell me! Why the hell are you here?!"
Yun Huai rubbed his head, which was sore from being hit, and looked completely innocent: "Speaking of this, I really meant well..."
"Tell the truth!" Qi Yue punched again.
Iris chuckled and stepped in front of Yun Huai, pulling Qi Yue aside to speak well of him: "You really can't blame him for this. He was genuinely trying to be kind. If he hadn't saved me, I'd probably be captured by those righteous disciples by now."
