Ye Sisi admired her natural ease and familiarity, and then she observed the maids and guards around Duanmu Zi without making a sound. If Duanmu Zi was really as simple as she appeared, then the people around her must be extraordinary.
But if she's faking it, then she must have another purpose in getting close to them. Although she's confident she can save her life, it's still better to be careful!
She noticed that both maids looked helpless, most of the guards were expressionless, but several of them looked helpless, and only two of them looked at them with some hostility.
Judging from these details, Duanmu Zi really is as harmless as she appears. Moreover, Xiao Liuli said that her aura is not unpleasant, which is rare, since Duanmu Zi is a native of the demon race. So after discussing it, the group decided to return to the Holy Demon City with Duanmu Zi and then sneak away to participate in the Holy Maiden's blessing.
However, Ye Sisi couldn't agree to Duanmu Zi's request so easily, otherwise she would be watched even more closely. So, after Duanmu Zi pleaded with her for a while, she reluctantly agreed.
Even though she seemed very unwilling, several guards still glanced at them subtly. Ye Sisi pretended to be nonchalant, then bid farewell to the reluctant Duanmu Zi and returned to her room!
Now she has to admit that Duanmu Zi and the others are really thoughtful. They even set up a barrier when they were fighting, otherwise they would have to find a place to stay now.
To prevent eavesdroppers, Ye Sisi asked Xiao Pang to keep an eye on the outside before the five of them re-entered the space.
As soon as they entered, Ye Sisi and the other two stared at Su Jiuli. Su Jiuli remained expressionless, glancing at them indifferently and asking, "What? Is something the matter?"
The group shook their heads again in unison. The eldest brother was indeed the eldest brother. He could remain calm even if Mount Tai collapsed in front of him. He could still be so composed after death.
Ye Sisi continued, "We can infiltrate the Holy Demon Palace the fastest by using Duanmu Zi's connections, but you must have noticed that Duanmu Zi has two very unusual guards. We will definitely be closely watched, and it will be difficult for us to move around!"
Everyone's expressions turned serious. After thinking for a moment, Bai Luochen said, "Why don't we think of another way to sneak in? I have a feeling it's dangerous to be with that Duanmu Zi! Besides, she's really unreliable!"
Su Jiuli thought for a moment and then shook her head: "I always felt that the Holy Maiden's Blessing was not a good thing. We must take Second Junior Sister away as soon as possible. We don't need to participate in that Holy Maiden's Blessing. As long as we infiltrate the Holy Demon Palace, with Junior Sister's talisman and Fourth Junior Brother's array for concealment, finding Second Junior Sister shouldn't be difficult. We can just take her away then. Even if we are discovered, it won't matter. The Holy Demon Palace only has two Nascent Soul cultivators, and they haven't come out for a long time. With me and Third Junior Brother here, what if we turn the Holy Demon Palace upside down!"
Their current problem is how to get into the Holy Demon Palace. As far as they know, the Holy Demon Palace is very mysterious, just like the nameless island of the Tianji Sect, which is an independent small space. This is why they don't just sneak into the Holy Demon Palace to steal people. They don't even know where the door is!
Moreover, the souls of disciples and believers from powerful forces like the Holy Demon Palace are all bound by restrictions, making it impossible to forcibly obtain information through soul searching. This is why Ye Sisi was so happy to see Duanmu Zi.
Once you can follow her into the Holy Demon Palace, things will be much simpler from here on out!
As she was lost in thought, Bai Luochen suddenly said, "Senior Brother, you said it yourself, the Holy Demon Palace has two Nascent Soul cultivators. Even if you and Third Senior Brother are powerful, can we really take Second Senior Sister away safely? Don't get too cocky!"
Su Jiuli smiled slightly, then turned to look at Lin Shuangluo: "Third Junior Brother, let our Junior Brother know how powerful you are!"
Lin Shuangluo was itching to fight. He had finally recovered his cultivation, and he hadn't had enough of the fake fight he had just put on. Teaching his junior brother a lesson was a good idea. He could just suppress his cultivation level if necessary!
Seeing that Bai Luochen was really about to be beaten by his third senior brother, Ye Sisi quickly said, "Senior brother, I think what the fifth senior brother said is also true. After all, they have two Nascent Soul cultivators guarding them, so we still have to be careful!"
Su Jiuli smiled confidently: "Junior Sister, although the two from the Holy Demon Palace are both Nascent Soul cultivators like our master, they have remained hidden away and haven't gone to the Upper Realm for so many years. What do you think is the reason?"
Ye Sisi quickly realized that any cultivator with ambition and sufficient talent would continue their cultivation in a higher plane after leaving their body. Whether it was the cultivation world or the demon world, the conditions in the lower plane were insufficient to support the spiritual energy or demonic energy required for high-level cultivators to cultivate.
Since the lifespan of a Nascent Soul cultivator is so short, it's naturally better to go to the Upper Realm as early as possible. Regardless of their talent, those who remain below are unlikely to have much ambition. Furthermore, after years of honing their skills, their combat strength is definitely not what it used to be, and they might not be able to defeat spirited young men like Su Jiuli and Lin Shuangluo!
After thinking it through, Ye Sisi stuck out her tongue, paused for a moment, and then said with some worry, "Senior Brother, what if... what if Second Senior Sister doesn't want to come with us?"
She had thought of this before. Given the power that forced them out of the secret place, Ouyang Yanyu's cultivation level must be strange. If they wanted to take her away by force, she might not be able to win if she didn't cooperate!
Su Jiuli also fell silent for a moment. He and Ouyang Yanyu had grown up together since childhood, and in terms of understanding, none of them combined could compare to him.
Given the current situation, and considering Ouyang Yanyu's personality, she definitely wouldn't want to drag Tianling Sect down with her, and she might actually refuse to cooperate with them!
Ye Shubai suddenly spoke up: "Have you ever heard of spirit-absorbing stones?"
Ye Sisi seemed to be deep in thought. She seemed to have seen information about spirit-absorbing stones somewhere before. It was said that spirit-absorbing stones could directly absorb other people's spiritual roots, but such things were forbidden in the cultivation world, just like heroin in modern times. After all, spiritual roots are something people are born with, and forcibly taking them away for others to use would be against the natural order.
Moreover, I've only ever heard of spirit-absorbing stones being able to absorb spiritual roots, I've never heard of them being able to absorb demonic roots!
However, she only saw a few lines of records in the ancient book and was not very sure, so she asked, "Fourth Senior Brother, do you mean that the Spirit Absorption Stone can absorb the demonic root in Second Senior Sister's body?"
Before Ye Shubai could explain, Little Fatty said urgently, "Ye Sisi, there's a commotion outside, hurry up and go out!"
The group's expressions changed, and they quickly left Little Fatty's space.
