Ji Xiaoxiao was very satisfied with the current results and quietly told Old Man Gui'an a few words. Old Man Gui'an pondered for a moment and then called Ming Yuehui and Zhao Yu to whisper in his ear.
"Bring the Longevity Grass, Black Pearl, and Soul-Connecting Netherworld Water from Yue Ran's hands to the master."
Old Man Gui'an kept repeating this sentence, making Ming Yuehui and Zhao Yu dizzy and swaying like candles in the wind.
Ji Xiaoxiao suddenly realized and added, "Bring Yue Lingling to Yin Hun Mountain as well."
If we gather Yue Lingling, Mingyuehui, and Zhao Yu together, we should be able to summon the dragon.
...
It's unclear whether Old Man Gui'an's brainwashing techniques can fool Yue Ran's discerning eyes. Ever since Ming Yuehui and Zhao Yu left, Ji Xiaoxiao has been restless.
The original owner aspired to become a renowned demon lord, but Ji Xiaoxiao is currently only at the Nascent Soul stage. Above her, there are still countless high-level cultivators who could crush her with a single finger.
If you don't want to be killed, you have to kill others.
Time and state of mind are crucial for improving one's cultivation. Ji Xiaoxiao has traveled through time several times, playing all sorts of characters and experiencing a variety of fascinating lives, so her state of mind is naturally not lacking.
For Yu Ji Xiaoxiao, the most important issue is time.
Throughout history, every powerful being who could move mountains and overturn seas had spent millions of years cultivating their unparalleled magical power. Ji Xiaoxiao, a newcomer, wanted to commit murder, arson, and all sorts of evil deeds in this world of cultivation, yet no one dared to pursue her—it was nothing but wishful thinking.
Before she could act recklessly, Ji Xiaoxiao needed a powerful backer, and the original owner's deceased mother, Kagura, was undoubtedly the best candidate.
Blood relatives, bound by blood, and both belonging to Yin Hun Mountain. With the powerful demonic cultivator Kagura protecting Ji Xiaoxiao, she could practically do whatever she wanted. To revive Kagura, a Soul-Returning Pill was essential, and the rare and precious materials needed to refine it were even more indispensable.
Ji Xiaoxiao wandered around Yinhun Mountain for several months with a heavy heart. News came from the Longyou Mountain Range that Zhao Yu, Mingyuehui, had defected from Haotian Sect.
"Okay!" Ji Xiaoxiao couldn't help but shout.
Thanks to Ji Xiaoxiao's arrangement, Ming Yuehui and Zhao Yu managed to escape the pursuit of the Haotian Sect.
Looking at the longevity grass, black pearl, soul-connecting water, and the gift Moon Spirit in the jade box, Ji Xiaoxiao's lips never drooped that day.
After handing the longevity herb and other items to the astonished Sikong, Ji Xiaoxiao returned to the Abyss with Mingyuehui, Zhao Yu, and Yuelingling. She patiently played with the three of them for seven days and seven nights, but ultimately ignored the old man Gui'an's tearful pleas and resolutely turned them into puppets.
Brainwashing always has an end; it's safer to live like a zombie.
Ji Xiaoxiao is not one of those self-righteous people who ignore danger around them and arrogantly believe that they can control everyone and everything.
There's always a way out. Mingyuehui and his two companions are not simple. If we don't stop their potential counterattack soon, Ji Xiaoxiao will eventually suffer the consequences.
Having crafted three exquisite puppets in just one year, Ji Xiaoxiao was overjoyed. She walked around the puppets a few times, beaming, and patted the shoulder of the Yinhun Mountain crafting master.
"We have the puppets, we have the thugs, but I wonder if our backer has been resurrected?"
Ji Xiaoxiao touched her smooth chin, and a creepy smile appeared on her face.
"Let's go to the shrine and ask."
Without further ado, Ji Xiaoxiao gave the weapon-refining master a pep talk, patted her behind, and left the weapon-refining tower without giving him any reward.
Reviving Kagura was a matter of utmost importance for Yin Hun Mountain, and Sikong dared not slack off. The entire temple was surrounded by Sikong's sacrificial dead and the Thousand-Handed Yin Ghost.
"Young Master, please wait."
The person who called out to Ji Xiaoxiao was the next Holy Priest of Yinhun Mountain, and also Sikong's prized disciple—You Ran.
Ji Xiaoxiao didn't want to ruin Sikong's plans. If Kagura's resurrection failed, it would hurt both herself and others!
As she descended from the towering stone gate of the Divine Palace, Ji Xiaoxiao stood before You Ran and smiled gently as a greeting.
"How is it?"
You Ran should have a gentle and refined appearance and a mild and elegant personality, but he did the opposite, standing there like a big, taciturn bottle, not moving an inch.
Ji Xiaoxiao blinked and looked at You Ran a few times, only to see that he was oblivious to what was happening outside and remained calm. Ji Xiaoxiao was anxious and had no choice but to ask.
You Ran paused for a moment, then replied, "I don't know, Lord Sikong has not stepped out of the Divine Palace for a year."
Ji Xiaoxiao didn't know how to react, so she took a few steps back.
Two years later, just as Ji Xiaoxiao was consolidating her mid-Nascent Soul stage without making any further progress, dark clouds gathered over the Divine Palace, thunder roared, and a deafening roar shook the heavens and the earth.
Ji Xiaoxiao rushed over and saw a woman in purple holding Sikong, who had fainted from exhaustion, fighting against the menacing Nine Heavens Thunder with her bare hands.
Sensing the power of the woman in purple, Ji Xiaoxiao gained some insight, and the barrier loosened slightly.
After a long while, the dark clouds dispersed and the sunlight shone down. The woman in purple had withstood the power of the Nine Heavens Thunder. She was dressed in black, her clothes were tattered, yet she was elegant and noble, and not to be profaned.
The woman in purple glanced indifferently at Ji Xiaoxiao and You Ran, then walked barefoot into the divine palace. Her figure gradually disappeared into the depths of the palace, and the palace gates suddenly closed automatically.
The tribulation lightning alarmed the major sects of both the righteous and demonic paths, who all dispatched spies to investigate Yin Soul Mountain.
Good news doesn't travel far, but bad news travels fast. Ji Xiaoxiao didn't hide the facts of that day, and the news spread like wildfire, with one person telling ten, ten telling a hundred, and the great demon Kagura's resurrection spreading like wildfire.
The world, which had been calm for some time, was once again in turmoil.
A month has passed since the day of the tribulation.
On this day, outside the Divine Palace, the elders, disciples, ghosts, and minor sects affiliated with Yin Hun Mountain stood together, all dressed impeccably.
