From the moment Shi Yueyao saw Sheng Ning, a high-grade spiritual sword appeared in her hand.
This time she wasn't wearing that black robe, though her face was still the same as before.
But the hand holding the spirit sword was just a skeleton.
"Sheng Ning, you still dare to come to the Demon Realm?"
A voice as hoarse as the Demon Lord's echoed within the palace.
Sheng Ning raised an eyebrow upon hearing this and smiled, "You should ask him that; he's the one who captured me."
Shi Yueyao didn't care how Sheng Ning came to the Demon Clan.
She only remembered the humiliation she suffered at Sheng Ning's hands each time.
The resentment had been brewing for a long time.
She now wished she could chop Sheng Ning into pieces to vent her anger.
Those pupils, which were originally brown, had turned dark red after he joined the demon race.
Unlike Kongwu's red eyes, Shi Yueyao's eyes were no longer as lively as before; instead, they were lifeless, like those of a puppet.
When Sheng Ning realized this, she tapped her fingers lightly on her knee.
Pretending not to see the murderous intent in the other person's eyes, she turned her head to look at the Demon Lord, "Is it worth it for you to do this for a puppet?"
"Sheng Ning!!!"
A piercing scream rang out inside the palace.
The moment Sheng Ning sensed the sharp sword intent, her mind raced, and she quickly retreated.
Just as she stepped back, a gleaming sword tip pierced the spot where she had just been sitting.
Judging from the angle, Shi Yueyao intended to pierce her heart directly.
The smile didn't reach her eyes. Sheng Ning stood in a corner of the palace, coldly watching Shi Yueyao not far away. "Did I hit the nail on the head?"
"Because my rocket launcher blew your body to shreds. If it weren't for the Demon Lord's intervention, who took your soul away and then used a puppet as a vessel to put you inside."
"So you cast the goddess statue not only to gain more faith power, but also to reshape your physical body."
"Who taught you all these crooked and unorthodox methods? It couldn't have been the Taixu Sect, could it?"
Sheng Ning's voice echoed within the palace.
Her eyes were fixed on Shi Yueyao, a seemingly nonchalant smile playing on her lips, but her eyes held a chilling coldness that sent shivers down one's spine.
She has read many books and has also learned a great deal of knowledge that is not found in books during her travels.
She knew of a elixir called the Bone-Regenerating Flesh Elixir, which could reshape one's physical body.
That is why this elixir is extremely difficult to obtain.
However, as the Demon Lord of the Demon Clan, how could Shi Yueyao not obtain this pill if she wanted it?
However, she did not choose to regenerate flesh from bones, but instead chose to deceive the masses, to gain the power of faith from all people, and to become a goddess in their hearts.
Such a method was unfamiliar even to the newcomer Sheng Ning, and even to Su Daiyuan and the others when they heard about the power of faith.
In other words, this was the first time they had ever heard of such a method of collecting faith.
Shi Yueyao has now begun to gain the power of faith, and her cultivation has reached the perfect stage of the Integration Realm.
What she will become after gaining more faith power in the future is unknown.
After hearing what Sheng Ning said, a mocking glint flashed in Shi Yueyao's dark red eyes.
Holding her long sword, she did not rush forward to kill Sheng Ning.
Instead, they looked at each other as if they were looking at an ant.
"Sheng Ning, you should thank me."
"Thank me for not letting Qin Chuan and the others kill you directly, but for letting you leave the Taixu Sect, which gave you the opportunity to go to the Invincible Sect."
"But you shouldn't have done that, you shouldn't have tried to sow discord between me and my fellow disciples, causing us to drift apart."
"You must have secretly rejoiced many times, right? You got nothing in the Taixu Sect and almost starved to death, but you are so favored in the Wudi Sect."
"Have you ever considered that you're taking away something that rightfully belongs to me!"
Shi Yueyao got more and more excited as she spoke.
Blood vessels gradually appeared in her dark red eyes.
However, she was only possessing the puppet's body, and the power of faith she collected from all living beings was only enough to barely restore her face.
Therefore, even though she was angry, jealous, and resentful at this moment, her face remained expressionless.
Sheng Ning could only detect these emotions from her tone of voice.
"Isn't all of this your own fault?"
Upon hearing her almost out-of-control tone, Sheng Ning's ambiguous smile faded, replaced by a contemptuous expression.
"Nonsense!"
"I'm talking nonsense?" She looked at the puppet that had flashed in front of her and scoffed, "Have you ever thought about why the Invincible Sect would suddenly become hostile towards you for no reason?"
"Do you want to hear what you did to them in your past life?"
Sheng Ning's words made Shi Yueyao stop her from taking action.
On that face that couldn't express too many emotions, Shi Yueyao's eyes widened. "What do you mean?"
"What did you do to your senior brothers in your past life?"
Shi Yueyao couldn't understand what Sheng Ning was saying.
All she knew was that ever since Sheng Ning was inexplicably taken in by Lu Qing'an and brought back to the Invincible Sect, all her senior brothers had changed.
He began to despise her, and sometimes his eyes were filled with resentment as if he wanted to devour her alive.
She thought about many things, but she couldn't understand why her senior brothers had become like that.
Ultimately, she blamed everything on Sheng Ning's arrival, which sowed discord between her and her fellow disciples.
Now, Sheng Ning is telling her about her past life.
What could have happened in my past life?
How could Sheng Ning possibly know anything about her past life?
My mind was a complete mess, filled with questions.
Shi Yueyao immediately raised her long sword and placed the blade against the shoulder of the person in front of her. "Sheng Ning, stop talking nonsense!"
Feeling the chill on her neck, Sheng Ning tilted her head slightly.
Upon seeing the longsword on her shoulder, she curled her lips into a smile. "I haven't even said anything yet, so how do you know I'm talking nonsense?"
"Shi Yueyao, do you want to ascend to immortality?"
"After you were sent to the Invincible Sect, you kept complaining, both openly and secretly, that the Invincible Sect was a small sect with poor resources. So you went to the Taixu Sect, thinking that a big sect would have better resources and could give you more."
"Indeed, if I hadn't appeared, you would have gotten more and better resources, because those idiots in the Taixu Sect would have listened to you and given you all the good resources."
Unfortunately, my appearance has shattered your expectations.
The atmosphere inside the palace remained cold.
Even after Sheng Ning finished speaking, she could clearly feel the temperature of the surrounding air dropping further.
He seemed oblivious to the murderous aura emanating from the person in front of him.
She continued, "It's precisely because you want the resources of a major sect that you always run to the Taixu Sect."
"Although the Invincible Sect is a small sect, why does my junior sister keep running to other sects?"
"Your senior brother and the others tried everything to keep you here, but you always felt that they were holding you back."
"Guess what you did to them in your past life?"
