Lie Yun walked behind him, and the disciples automatically made way for him.
What happened?
The male disciple looked at the notoriously strict Elder Lieyun and stammered out the whole story.
"That woman in white has appeared in my Fire Heaven Valley before?" Lie Yun asked repeatedly to confirm.
"Yes." The male disciple answered respectfully, "Two years ago, my junior sister and I went out of the valley to train. We accidentally rescued the woman in white from the hands of bandits. My junior sister took pity on her and took her in as a maid, bringing her back to the valley. Who knew that two months later, the woman in white suddenly disappeared without a trace, and my junior sister's spirit stones and magical artifacts also vanished."
"A scammer?"
The male disciple looked at his unconscious junior sister and shook his head. "She has a very sweet tongue. Those spirit stones and magical artifacts that disappeared must have been a gift from her."
"So that's how it is. She's not just a simple con artist."
There's a barrier at the entrance to Fire Heaven Valley. The woman in white disappeared into thin air without alerting anyone. She must be quite something!
Lie Yun glanced at the unconscious female disciple with interest before returning to a distance.
After watching Ji Xiaoxiao's massacre video, the four major righteous sects were furious.
"The root of the problem lies with that woman in white."
Lie Yun shook his head and earnestly explained the cause and effect to the other three people.
The woman in white was a thief who engaged in illicit activities, and Ji Xiaoxiao was the fat sheep she had set her sights on. Instead of fleecing her, she was killed by Ji Xiaoxiao herself. She brought this upon herself, dragging thousands of innocent people of Fengkang City into the mess; the woman in white deserved to die.
"Lie Yun, you're wrong. The woman in white is at fault, but she doesn't deserve to die. Feng Kang City has suffered this disaster unjustly. The reason for all this is that the demoness Shen Yin is vindictive, petty, and treats human life like ants and weeds."
The righteous have long hated the demonic, so Elder Li's words are perfectly normal.
Master Kongkong and Abbess Yiyi sighed and began chanting the Rebirth Mantra.
Moments later, the four major righteous sects decided to issue a "Demon-Chasing and Killing Order" against Ji Xiaoxiao.
...
Yin Hun Mountain, the Divine Palace, in the Lotus Pond.
"What trouble has that scoundrel Zhengdao gotten himself into this time?"
The lotus pond was crystal clear, the lotus flowers were pink and tender, and the lotus leaves were emerald green, making Kagura look as beautiful as a demon princess.
Sikong shed his heavy clothes and slowly stepped into the lotus pond.
"They've issued a decree to hunt down and kill the demon," Sikong said worriedly.
The Demon-Chasing Kill Order was the culprit behind the tragic death of Kagura back then.
"Another Demon-Chasing Kill Order." Kagura curled her lips. "In less than a hundred years, those hypocrites of the righteous path have issued another Demon-Chasing Kill Order. Their fate is sealed."
The Demon-Chasing and Slaughtering Order is no mere rhetoric; it is a decree issued by Heaven, sacrificing the entire fortune of the righteous path. The decree commands all righteous disciples to slay demons; those who disobey will be struck by lightning and their souls scattered.
Back then, Kagura's cultivation was profound. To defeat and subdue a cultivator, one either needed to be detached from worldly affairs, closed off from life and death, and comprehend the secrets of heaven, or be too old and frail to be anything more than a mascot. Yet, Kagura still suffered a crushing defeat because of that Demon-Chasing Killing Order. The laws of heaven are supreme and silent, and righteous people have no choice but to obey. Ants and grasshoppers swarmed onto her, and Kagura, exhausted from dealing with them, died from her exhaustion.
"If you can't ask Heaven to kill people yourself, then you use a despicable trick that hurts the enemy a thousand while harming yourself eight hundred to deal with us demons. If the righteous path doesn't perish, Heaven will not tolerate it."
Patting Sikong's groping hand, Kagura belatedly asked, "Who is this Demon-Chasing Kill Order targeting? It's not me again, is it?"
Sikong looked worried and said, "It's not you, it's your daughter."
"Divine sound? Impossible."
Kagura's impression of "Kamine" is still that of "Kamine" when she was a cute little girl.
Sikong knew his wife well and poked her forehead. "You should pay more attention to your daughter." Whether he was happy or worried, Sikong told Shenle about the destruction of Fengkang City.
"Destroy the city? Slaughter tens of thousands of people in Fengkang City? And Shenyin did it herself?"
Kagura was startled awake, but the rushing water could not mask Sikong's raging anger.
"Impossible." Kagura shook her head, vehemently denying it.
How could my lovely daughter be so cruel?
impossible!
The facts are right in front of you, Kagura has no choice but to believe!
Like Sikong, Kagura's feelings at this moment were complicated, unsure whether she was happy or sad.
The couple exchanged a glance and sighed heavily.
"Once the Demon-Chasing Order is issued, all evil spirits and heretics will surely perish. Sikong, I'm afraid Shenyin won't be able to handle it. You must send someone to bring her back immediately. With a million vengeful ghosts and countless followers from Yinhun Mountain, no matter how relentlessly the righteous people pursue her, they will never be able to harm my daughter." Shenle hurriedly pulled Sikong along, forgetting her own situation.
Sikong grasped Kagura's hand and reassured her, "Kagura, don't worry. Our daughter is very lucky and has high cultivation. She'll be fine for a while."
Clearing his throat and coughing, Sikong said uncomfortably, "You should put your clothes on first."
Having a daughter makes her forget her husband; Kagura is like that.
After obediently putting on her clothes, Kagura pulled Sikong outside again.
Sikong remained rooted to the spot, motionless, while Kagura was filled with surprise, anger, and unease.
"Sikong, let's go. Shenyin is waiting for us," Kagura said.
Sikong gripped Kagura's hand tightly, as if trying to meld her into his very bones.
"Kagura, you must calm down after you finish speaking, absolutely calm down, don't act impulsively." After a pause, Sikong said, "Shenyin has disappeared."
"What's the meaning?"
"As soon as I received the Order to Pursue the Demon, I sent someone to inform Shenyin to return to Yinhun Mountain immediately, but the scouts reported that they could not find Shenyin."
Sikong felt that Kagura's hands were trembling and cold.
"What do you mean by 'can't find'?" Kagura asked in a low voice.
"After Shenyin left Fengkang City, she disappeared without a trace."
Before Sikong could react, Shenle snatched her away and flew towards Suxin Gate, the closest gate to Yinhun Mountain.
"Kagura, wait a minute..."
Enraged, Sikong smashed a pillar and chased after it without stopping.
...
It was dark, gloomy, damp, and had a pungent musty smell.
"Hehehe... such tender skin."
