Chapter 3: The Source is Drained
Time seemed to stretch exceptionally long, and I had no idea how long I had been tormented. Finally, a pair of light footsteps arrived with the wind, and a faint fragrance accompanied by soft light fell from the cave entrance.
Rong Yan suddenly opened his eyes, and when he saw who was coming, his eyes were filled with ecstasy.
Ye Wange was wearing a purple robe and holding a flowing umbrella, looking like a fairy descending from heaven.
Rong Yan almost crawled to her, holding onto her skirt with one hand.
"Save me... I'm willing... I'm willing to become your disciple, as long as you save me..."
In her previous life, Fairy Wangyue said that if he had passed away a step later that day, she would have brought him to Xialing Peak and used the best elixir to treat his injuries, and would never have let him suffer so much with Ye Zhao.
Unexpectedly, he was really reborn. This time, he would not let the regrets of his previous life happen again.
Ye Wange raised her eyebrows slightly. She didn't know this person.
But she recognized the extremely pure demonic energy in him. It was a special aura that only the royal bloodline of the demon clan possessed, and it contained extremely strong magical power.
If this kind of demonic energy could be extracted and refined, it would be enough to increase her power by decades.
Thinking of this, Ye Wange took out a magic weapon made entirely of red gold from his sleeve.
It was a palm-sized incense burner with a demon-devouring array pattern engraved on the body. She lifted up the magic weapon and directed the demonic aura from Rong Yan towards it.
The violent evil energy in the body was drawn out bit by bit by the incense burner, and the feeling of erosion was alleviated a lot.
Rong Yan only felt a sense of relief in his sea of consciousness, and the burning pain in his dantian was slightly relieved.
His eyes were moist and hot, and he looked at Ye Wange infatuatedly.
In his previous life, after Ye Zhao brought him back to Qingyue Peak, he fed him something that made him suffer so much that he wished he were dead.
In comparison, Fairy Wangyue is much gentler and can calm his evil spirit without him realizing it.
His decision to stay here and wait for Fairy Wangyue to come and rescue him was absolutely the right one.
Rong Yan showed a relieved smile on his face. He was happy that he had finally gotten rid of Ye Zhao, but at the same time he felt sad that he had wasted so much time in his previous life.
But soon, he realized something was wrong.
As the spiritual light of the incense burner grew stronger, the foundation of the demonic energy in his body began to be affected. The demonic veins that he had stabilized through ten years of hard training gradually dissipated, and his soul consciousness began to shake continuously, as if it was torn apart by some force.
"Wait..." Rong Yan's eyes widened, "...are you, are you draining my essence?"
Ye Wange pinched the magic formula and said nonchalantly: "You are a demon."
"I am the Peak Master of Xialing Peak and a candidate for the Leader of Wenxin Sect. How should I react if you accept me as your disciple?"
"Why don't you give me your magic power to help me reach the summit."
Rong Yan's eyes were originally full of anticipation, but he didn't expect to be greeted with such an extremely cold and indifferent remark, and the color instantly drained from his face.
No, no, that’s not what the Moon-gazing Fairy in the previous life said!
She had to be kidding him, she had to be!
Rong Yan stared at Ye Wange intently, but he was unable to salvage anything, nor could he find any sign of a joke on her face. He just felt as if all the bones in his body were limp as if they were falling apart. Not only did his violent demonic aura stabilize, but his spiritual center also became as still as stagnant water.
In the end, he had to accept the fact that the Moon-Watching Fairy, whom he had always admired in his previous life and wanted to follow in this life, not only failed to save him, but instead absorbed his essence!
Ye Wange absorbed enough magic power and then, satisfied, retracted her magic weapon. The sect competition was approaching, and she had to improve her strength as quickly as possible. As for this demon...
It would be better to take it back and make it a container to provide her with magic power.
Having made up her mind, Ye Wange summoned her flying sword and flew towards Xialing Peak with Rong Yan.
Rong Yan was finally able to regain consciousness after being blown by the cold wind. At this moment, his brain felt like a mess and he had no idea what was going on.
He absolutely did not believe that Fairy Wangyue would harm him. After all, in her previous life, the master of Xialing Peak had always been known for her gentleness and kindness, and many disciples wanted to become her disciples.
Fairy Wangyue must have a backup plan. When she returns to Xialing Peak, she will definitely save him.
After the two left, Ye Zhao also walked out of the cave. She glanced in the direction Rong Yan left, and a hint of sneer appeared in her eyes.
In this life, Rong Yan finally got his wish and followed Ye Wange back to Xialing Peak. He hoped that in the days to come, he could fully appreciate the time he spent with Ye Wange...
Outside the gate of Xialing Peak, Shen Yubai was still standing there, with traces of light blue under his eyes, but his eyes were getting brighter.
He must wait for the Moon-Watching Fairy, definitely!
I don’t know how long I stood there, but finally I heard the sound of a gust of wind.
The morning light penetrated through the fog. Ye Wange stood on the sword and saw Shen Yubai still standing there. Her brows immediately frowned.
Shen Yubai's eyes lit up, and he immediately took two steps forward and bowed solemnly to her, "Disciple Shen Yubai, I beg Master Ye Feng to accept me as your disciple."
Ye Wange lowered her eyes and looked at him, as if she was looking at a broken stone.
Didn't she have someone send him away last night? Unexpectedly, this guy actually refused to leave.
"Didn't I tell you? I have no plans to accept a disciple for the time being."
This was already said very tactfully. If it weren't for Shen Yubai's special identity, she would have been unable to hold back and cursed.
"Although my talent is dull, my heart is firm." Shen Yubai's eyes were blazing. "Now I am only in the early stages of foundation building, but I will definitely reverse my destiny and reach the pinnacle of the Great Dao. If I can become the Peak Master's disciple, I will definitely live up to my learning and bring disgrace to the Peak Master's name."
Ye Wange snorted softly, as if she had heard something funny.
"In the initial stage of foundation building, three spiritual roots..." She held her forehead with her jade hand, feeling both amused and annoyed.
But this Shen Yubai is different from the demon in the cave. He has some connection with the sect master, and it is for this reason that he can enter the inner sect of the Wenxin Sect to practice.
She couldn't be too harsh, otherwise she would have beaten him up and thrown him into the Warcraft Forest.
Ye Wange was too lazy to talk any more, so she casually flicked her sleeve, and with a flash of light between her fingers, a brown-covered martial arts booklet flew out and was thrown in front of Shen Yubai.
"I really don't have any plans to accept a disciple. This book, 'The Divine Control Chapter', is a guide to introductory techniques I wrote in my early years. You can use it."
After saying that, Ye Wange brushed her sleeves and prepared to return to the peak, fearing that Chen Yubai would pester her again.
In fact, this book of martial arts was written by Ye Wange herself for practice when she was young. At that time, she did not have a deep understanding of cultivation, and what she wrote was full of loopholes and could not be practiced at all.
Of course, she was reluctant to give out the good things she had, so she threw a rubbish martial arts book to Shen Yubai.
But Shen Yubai's eyes immediately turned red, especially when he saw Rong Yan lying on Ye Wange's sword, his heart was even more moved.
It seems that Rong Yan has successfully gotten rid of Ye Zhao in this life.
He also obtained the martial arts technique bestowed upon him by Fairy Wangyue, and no longer had to practice the slow and troublesome low-level martial arts technique given to him by Ye Zhao.
Their good days are coming.
