Su Jiuli nodded and tossed the Boundary-Breaking Brush to Ye Shubai, who was staring at her expectantly: "Here you go!"
Ye Shubai happily accepted it. The Boundary-Breaking Brush! That's a magical treasure that can silently break through any barrier. Countless array masters would want to obtain such a treasure. As expected of the senior brother, his wealth is too abundant!
Ye Sisi and Bai Luochen both looked at Su Jiuli expectantly. They had already given their fourth senior brother such a big treasure, so they couldn't possibly be biased towards one another!
Su Jiuli shook his head and smiled, then took out an exquisite long box and handed it to Ye Sisi: "Open it and take a look!"
Ye Sisi opened it and found it was also a pen. Although it wasn't a spiritual treasure, it was still a top-grade spiritual artifact. Drawing talismans with it would definitely be easier. She happily took it out and played with it, then said, "Senior Brother, why didn't you give it to me sooner!"
Su Jiuli tapped her on the forehead: "If I had given it to you earlier, you would have studied the talismans so diligently! Tools are important, but the most important thing is the painting itself!"
Ye Sisi happily put the talisman brush into her spatial ring. It's so great to have such a domineering senior brother. Bai Luochen, standing to the side, had red eyes. He looked at Su Jiuli with resentment and asked, "Senior brother, what about me?"
Su Jiuli smiled slightly: "What?"
Don't I get a gift?
"Ah... I forgot!"
Bai Luochen felt heartbroken. Why was the world so unfair to him? So he turned his head away angrily, and Lin Shuanglu patted his shoulder to comfort him.
He had a very good mindset. He was already in so much debt that he couldn't pay it all off, so he didn't have the face to ask for gifts. Perhaps this is what they mean by "being invincible when one is without desires"?
After Ye Shubai recognized the spiritual treasure as his master, he stared intently at the barrier in front of him. He casually touched the barrier with the barrier-breaking pen, and a hole was opened in the barrier. However, apart from this hole, the entire barrier was intact. In other words, the people inside could not even realize that the barrier had been broken!
The five filed in, eager to see what the Ouyang family was up to. They'd even set up a clan-protecting formation to prevent them from entering—they'd never seen them do this before, unless something had happened to Ouyang Yanyu! They were feeling guilty!
After passing through layers of arrays, the group finally arrived at the gate of the Ouyang family. Ye Shubai walked in front and pushed open the tightly closed gate.
With its red walls, green tiles, pavilions, and towers, the Ouyang family's overall style is luxurious, yet it differs from the extravagance of nouveau riche; in short, it exudes class.
Strangely, there wasn't a single person in the huge Ouyang family compound. Such a bizarre situation would be hard to believe without something fishy going on.
Why is there nobody here?
As soon as Ye Sisi finished speaking, she sensed a trace of demonic energy deep within the mansion. Of course, the others also sensed it, but Lin Shuangluo reacted the most, since the demonic energy was the culprit that had ruined his cultivation.
Next was Su Jiuli, whose eyes flickered with panic, his exquisitely handsome face filled with worry.
Ye Sisi's heart skipped a beat. She had just pulled Lin Shuanglu back from the brink of demonic possession. What if one of them came back and another one fell into the same trap? Their Tianling Sect really couldn't afford that!
No wonder Ouyang Jia activated the clan's protective formation in broad daylight; it turns out there's something fishy going on in his family. But why would a cultivation family that relies on alchemy to establish itself in the cultivation world be involved with demonic energy?
Ye Sisi immediately affixed several defensive talismans to Lin Shuangluo, as she was too fragile to withstand any further damage. Of course, she didn't show favoritism; Bai Luochen and Ye Shubai also received talismans. As for Su Jiuli, he was now a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, so using a defensive talisman of her level would be pointless.
Lin Shuangluo, who was being given special care by her junior sister, was not too happy. Instead, she was a little depressed. Back then, even her senior brother could only be suppressed and beaten by her. Now, she had been reduced to being protected by a little girl. This damn heaven, one day she would make him pay back all the grievances she had suffered!
The five of them quickly approached the direction from which the demonic energy was coming, with Su Jiuli taking the lead. Before long, they arrived at the place where the demonic energy was the most concentrated.
The source of the demonic energy was the stone door of a secret chamber. Outside the stone door were circles of cultivators, all gritting their teeth and making hand seals. Threads of spiritual energy intertwined and wove together to form a large net, as if trying to suppress all the surging demonic energy.
However, Ouyang Yanyu was nowhere to be seen among the group. Ye Sisi had thought that Su Jiuli would first help stabilize the demonic energy here before inquiring about Ouyang Yanyu's whereabouts, but he directly grabbed an old man's shoulder and said in an icy tone, "Where is my second junior sister?"
Ye Sisi remembered the last time she saw him with such an expression was when she said Xu Sichen wanted to take her back to be his wife. It seemed that her senior brother was really angry. She wondered how her second senior sister was doing! What exactly happened inside!
The old man whose shoulder was being held was stunned. When he saw that Su Jiuli's eyes were red, he spat out a mouthful of blood and roared, "You still have the nerve to come here? If it weren't for that jinx, how could our Ouyang family have suffered such a calamity!"
Su Jiuli's face was filled with unease, and the others also looked coldly at the old man who had spoken. He dared to slander Ouyang Yanyu in front of so many of them, so they wondered how much suffering she had endured when she was alone!
Ye Shubai stepped forward, and with a light tap of his Boundary-Breaking Brush, a large hole was torn in the spiritual energy net. Without telling them Ouyang Yanyu's whereabouts, he wanted their painstakingly maintained barrier to collapse instantly.
The rest of the Ouyang family members were green with envy. The sealing array they had painstakingly built had been broken so easily by this kid. What kind of freaks were the people of the Heavenly Spirit Sect!
Su Jiuli tightened his knuckles, and a crisp cracking sound echoed all around. The old man grunted and shouted, "Hey you, stop right now! If you don't seal the forbidden area, the demonic energy will escape, and our Ouyang family will be finished!"
