Chen Ganliu was even more afraid.
There was only one Orthodox Heavenly Demon Sect in this world.
It was the sect that captured Heavenly Demons, refined them, and turned them into their own magical powers.
In other words, the Orthodox Heavenly Demon Sect was more terrifying than any other Demonic Cultivator.
Other Demonic Cultivators, no matter what methods they cultivated or how evil and malicious they were, were most likely still human.
The Orthodox Heavenly Demon Sect!
They were demons, Heavenly Demons, no longer human.
Seeing Chen Ganliu's pale face, his junior sister smiled charmingly and said, "You actually know what the Orthodox Heavenly Demon Sect is! You do have some background, no wonder Mad Zen defected to you."
She reached out and pressed Chen Ganliu's shoulder, channeling a wisp of demonic energy into him. Immediately, her face showed surprise as she asked, "How do you know the Azure Emperor Jia Yi Art?"
Chen Ganliu secretly cursed. If he had just focused on his cultivation, no one would have been able to recognize his techniques. But now, in the hands of the Immortal Encounter Sect, or two inheritors of the Orthodox Heavenly Demon Sect, they could easily discover his secrets by any means.
Chen Ganliu's mind raced frantically, coming up with over ten possible explanations. Just as he was about to choose one to "quibble" with, he heard his junior sister say, "Never mind, I won't ask you anymore."
"Even if fellow Daoist has some secrets, we sisters don't want to know."
Chen Ganliu immediately felt that all his mental effort had been wasted. He touched Mad Zen, which stood upright on his head, knowing that this flying blade was lost. He could only resign himself to fate.
After all, as long as he didn't try to control the Mind-Wandering Zen Blade, he wouldn't have to experience the pain of going through eighteen levels of hell and reincarnation again.
Although his meridians, bones, and muscles were still aching, he wasn't truly injured and had recovered a little.
His senior sister pondered for a moment and thought, "I must take this child back to Master."
"However, Master is currently engaged in Magical Combat with people from the Immortal Encounter Sect and cannot be distracted. We sisters will take him with us for now."
Seeing her junior sister wink at her, the senior sister was surprised. Then, she heard her junior sister's voice, transmitted through a secret Heavenly Demon technique: "This child is a bit strange. He only has one Spiritual Vein, and his aptitude is extremely poor. How could he have gained Mad Zen's recognition?"
The senior sister was also very surprised and thought, "Only one Spiritual Vein? Isn't that the standard for a handyman disciple?"
She also reached out and pressed Chen Ganliu's forehead, channeling a wisp of demonic energy into him. She immediately realized that this young man indeed only had one Spiritual Vein.
No, strictly speaking, he only had half a Spiritual Vein, as this Spiritual Vein was a Severed Vein.
With such poor aptitude, yet being able to have Mad Zen "recognize him as master" made it even stranger.
The two sisters discussed for a while. The senior sister said to Chen Ganliu, "We sisters are disciples of Master Yao. My name is Jiang Ningxue, and my junior sister's name is Xie Zhanrou."
"Since you have gained Mad Zen's recognition, we must take you to see him. However, he is busy at the moment, so you will stay with us for now."
Chen Ganliu quickly said, "This immortal flying blade is a divine object. I hope the two immortal ladies will take it back."
"I truly do not have the fortune to accept it, nor can I bear such a heavy karma."
Mad Zen came from the Immortal Encounter Sect, and it was the weapon of that Great Demon. How could he dare to keep it?
He was just a small fry at Qi Refining Layer One. If he touched this thing, he would probably die very quickly.
Chen Ganliu had lived three lives and cultivated in two. He only wanted to cultivate peacefully to the Great Perfection of Qi Refining. He had no grand ambitions.
He knew himself best. A person with only half a Spring Bloom Spiritual Vein would find it difficult to reach any profound realm in this lifetime.
Junior sister Xie Zhanrou said, "This matter is not up to you."
Chen Ganliu was speechless for a moment. These two were demonesses. Although they were smiling and chatting, they were definitely not gentle people. How could they allow him to negotiate?
After the two sisters finished questioning Chen Ganliu, they discussed where to settle down temporarily.
Yao Hanshan had brought his disciples, but he did not let them participate in the battle. He only allowed them to act freely nearby.
Jiang Ningxue and Xie Zhanrou, the two sisters, disliked crowds and did not plan to watch the battle near the Immortal Encounter Sect. They wanted to find a quiet place to cultivate in seclusion.
However, all the places near the Immortal Encounter Sect were occupied by their fellow disciples. Other areas were often swept through by the disciples of the Immortal Encounter Sect. The last time they came to Suiyang Immortal Market for a stroll, they were pursued by people from the Immortal Encounter Sect and had a fierce fight.
Jiang Ningxue frowned and said, "I wonder where we should settle down?"
Xie Zhanrou suggested a few places, but before her senior sister could say anything, she rejected them herself.
Chen Ganliu listened for a while and couldn't help but interject, "I know a place that is very secluded."
His Blazing Light Cave on Shuangyun Mountain was very hidden, and not many people knew about it.
Chen Ganliu, believing he was doomed, thought that falling into the hands of the Orthodox Heavenly Demon women would not lead to a good end.
He just wanted to open the last few "blind boxes" before he died.
After all, without him, his wife might not return to Shuangyun Mountain. Blazing Light Cave, apart from being secluded, was just an ordinary cave dwelling. For ordinary cultivators, it was a good place, but for the two Heavenly Demon women, they would definitely look down on it.
Xie Zhanrou asked, "What place are you talking about?"
Chen Ganliu then revealed the location of Blazing Light Cave on Shuangyun Mountain. The two women were very surprised. They knew that this young man must have secrets, otherwise why would Mad Zen choose him as its master?
Therefore, when Chen Ganliu knew of a secret cave dwelling, the two women were not overly surprised. They released their Escape Lights and took Chen Ganliu with them. In less than half an hour, they arrived at Shuangyun Mountain. With someone guiding them, they found Blazing Light Cave with a little searching. The two women were very pleased to see that the place was indeed quiet.
The two women knew that his cultivation was low, and he couldn't escape under the spiritual sense of a Golden Core Realm cultivator. They didn't set up any restrictions for him. Chen Ganliu chose the cave dwelling where he used to cultivate, and the two women also chose their own places.
Chen Ganliu sat alone for a moment, touched his body, touched his hands, and sighed.
Not only was his Beast Skin Pouch gone, but his Storage Ring was also missing. It must have fallen into the hands of some disciple of the Immortal Encounter Sect.
If he hadn't hidden twelve portions of "merit" in Blazing Light Cave, he would be crying tears of blood right now.
The Spirit Stones and Magic Treasures obtained that time were not important. If the White Emperor's Legacy were lost, that would be truly heartbreaking.
Even though, at this very moment, even if he obtained the White Emperor's Legacy, he couldn't escape the clutches of the two demonic women, and the White Emperor's Legacy might even be taken by them, Chen Ganliu still had to open all these Storage Magic Treasures. He wanted to die with peace of mind.
He no longer cared about these Storage Magic Treasures. Holding the Mind-Wandering Zen Blade, he took the stored Storage Magic Treasures and cut them open one by one.
He paid no attention to the rest of the items, only gathering all the Green Jade Stones.
Among these twelve Storage Magic Treasures, the Green Jade Stones were fewer than in the first five. After all, Green Jade Stone was a cheap magic jade. Although it could be used to refine Jade Talismans, it wasn't particularly precious. The higher one's cultivation, the less likely they were to carry such low-grade spiritual materials.
