The group of Golden Core cultivators left quickly, and no one noticed that shortly after they left, a snowdrift that had been quietly lying by the roadside suddenly stirred.
The snow fell softly, and two people crawled out!
They were two girls, both around fifteen years old, one dressed in a blue robe and the other in a pink and white dress.
The girl in the pink and white dress, her eyes red from crying, tightly gripped the arm of another girl who looked about sixteen, and sobbed as she asked:
"Senior Sister Feng, what are they talking about? What fallen demon? What demon? I just want to know where my senior brother went. He said he was going to buy me candied hawthorns, why hasn't he come back yet?"
She looked to be about fifteen years old, but her face was full of innocent wonder, clearly indicating that she was born with mental disabilities, like a toddler.
Senior Sister Feng was another girl in green. She was half a head taller than the girl in pink. Behind the girl's back, where the girl couldn't see, a fleeting look of impatience and disgust flashed across her face.
But her voice grew even gentler: "Junior Sister Bai Tong, don't worry, shall I take you to find the Immortal Lord?"
The girl in pink believed her and was coaxed into stopping her tears. She stumbled and followed her down a small path, secretly leaving the Ziwei Heavenly Palace.
They hadn't gone far when Senior Sister Feng suddenly said, "Bai Tong, do you think that's a Celestial Lord?"
The girl in pink turned around in surprise, but all she could see was a vast expanse of white; there wasn't a single person in sight.
Just as she was about to turn around and ask, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her neck, her vision went black, and she fainted to the ground.
Behind the girl in pink, Senior Sister Feng gave a cold laugh.
"Immortal Lord Jingyang has fallen into demonic possession and has been suppressed. Let's see who can protect you now! I've been waiting for this opportunity for so many years, and it's finally here! Bai Tong, you're such a stupid idiot, yet you have the exceptional talent of a naturally born wood spirit root. Do you even deserve it?"
She withdrew the numbing needle from her hand, flipped her wrist, and pulled out a sharp knife, slashing it viciously across the pink-clad girl's back!
laugh--
Blood gushed from the wound. Senior Sister Feng, expressionless, reached out and unleashed her spiritual power, forcefully peeling off the emerald green and translucent spiritual root from the pink-clad girl's spine!
The girl in pink was unconscious, but she was trembling all over from the pain.
"Once I absorb your spiritual root, I can replace you and become the new peerless genius of the Ziwei Heavenly Palace! I will do better than you, so don't worry!"
Senior Sister Feng's eyes shone brightly, unable to contain her excitement. She stood up and casually tossed the pink-clad girl, who was on the verge of death due to excessive blood loss, into the snow. With a flick of her sleeve, she summoned a large snowfall that completely covered the girl.
The entire snowfield was instantly stained red with flowing blood.
"Bai Tong, I wronged you first. If you are not satisfied, you can come back to me for revenge in your next life."
Senior Sister Feng took several deep breaths before she could suppress her excited trembling.
She quickly regained her composure, calmly cast the Dust-Avoiding Spell to remove all traces of blood from her body, and then turned and left with composure.
...
Tongsu was awakened by excruciating pain while she was on the verge of death.
Her back felt as if it had been split in half, and her meridians were throbbing with pain. Her spiritual energy was rapidly draining away, and the results of her years of hard work had vanished in an instant. Moreover, she had already stepped into the gates of hell with one foot in the door!
She had absolutely no strength to open her eyes, and the terrified cries of 666 echoed in her ears.
[Miss! Miss, wake up! You can't sleep! Oh my god, this wound is too big, what should we do? This will kill you—Miss, I have to use a [healing card] on you. If you don't say anything, I'll take that as your consent!]
