Tomorrow's Big Update! Great Demonic Sect, Mu Qianqian!

The silence was so complete that you really could have heard a pin drop.

As if by prior agreement, everyone's gaze turned toward the area at the stairway entrance on the second floor.

At the sight, Lin Yang's heart rose into his throat as well.

He wondered suspiciously, What are they looking at? Could there be some beauty up there or something?!

Just as Lin Yang was mulling it over, a graceful figure in a long black dress suddenly appeared at the stairway entrance.

She looked about seventeen or eighteen, with skin as fair as snow. Her jet-black hair was casually pinned up with a simple jade hairpin, giving off the faintest trace of alluring charm.

From Lin Yang's current angle, his gaze was tilted upward—an angle that, back on Blue Star, would have been considered a death angle.

No woman could withstand that angle and still look good.

Only this woman, even from such a death angle, showed Lin Yang not the slightest flaw.

Her exquisite features seemed as though they had been carved by a god.

"Luxuriant and lovely, radiant in bloom"—those words might as well have been written for the woman before him.

"Gulp!"

As the woman appeared, Lin Yang heard the sound of people swallowing all around him.

After that, the burly mercenaries in the hall

seemed deeply wary as they withdrew their gazes and stood trembling where they were.

They looked as though they were extremely afraid of that woman.

Immediately after, two old men appeared behind the woman.

The instant these two old men appeared, Lin Yang's brows knitted tightly.

Because judging from the aura leaking from the two of them, these two were definitely experts of the Three Realms of Creation!

He had not expected that in such a remote village, experts and forces like this would actually appear.

At that moment, Lin Yang even began to suspect whether choosing this place had been far too rash.

While Lin Yang was thinking, the woman standing at the stairway entrance moved.

As she slowly descended the stairs, the old man in a black robe and the guards stationed at the stairway entrance

followed behind her like servants, walking toward the first floor.

As for the other old man of the Three Realms of Creation, he bent low and respectfully saw them off.

Lin Yang saw it very clearly.

That old man of the Three Realms of Creation was not being so respectful toward the black-robed old man.

The direction in which he bowed was toward the woman at the front.

Huff—

As the black-dressed woman and her party walked down the stairs, Lin Yang's heart tightened along with them.

Right now, he was only at the Lesser Primal Core Realm, and he had barely learned any martial arts.

If he was targeted by them at a time like this, he would not even have the chance to flee into Misty Forest.

Although Lin Yang was very strong, and possessed the Tenth-grade Purple Gold Primal Core, he was not so arrogant as to think he could contend against an expert of the Three Realms of Creation.

At that thought, Lin Yang edged toward the crowd without leaving a trace, ready to leave this place at any moment.

Clearly!

His worries were somewhat unnecessary.

After the woman in the black dress came down to the first floor, she did not linger in the slightest.

She walked straight out of the pavilion.

As the woman in the black dress and her party left the pavilion, that tense atmosphere slowly began to dissipate.

Perhaps those people's presence just now had been far too powerful.

These originally rough and rugged mercenaries were now even speaking with extreme caution.

Some mercenaries left the hall outright.

In the blink of an eye, the bustling hall became rather deserted.

However, from the discussions of the mercenaries around him, Lin Yang also learned the origins of that group from earlier.

"The Great Demonic Sect."

That was right!

Those people were from one of the three great factions of the Great Barren Domain—the Great Demonic Sect!

The Great Demonic Sect!

It was famous for tempering the physical body.

Its sect master, Mu Lei, was even a powerhouse at minor achievement in the Creation Realm.

A faction like this was absolutely top-tier in the Great Barren Domain.

"It's just that the headquarters of the Great Demonic Sect isn't in Great Puppet City? Why would they come to Great Eagle City?"

Lin Yang murmured with a pensive expression.

Suddenly, he seemed to think of something.

Among the three great factions of the Great Barren Domain, the Yin Puppet Sect was the strongest, followed by the Great Demonic Sect and the Martial Alliance.

In order to counterbalance the three great factions of the Great Barren Domain, the Great Demonic Sect and the Martial Alliance had always been in an alliance.

And Great Eagle City was under the Martial Alliance's jurisdiction.

The people of the Great Demonic Sect appearing here could be explained.

It was just that woman...

Just then, a voice interrupted Lin Yang's thoughts.

"Are you looking to form a team to enter the Misty Forest?"

Lin Yang raised his head slightly.

The mercenaries who had been lined up in front of him had all already left.

The speaker was a young man behind the counter with an ingratiating smile plastered across his face.

And this young man was actually a Lesser Primal Core Realm expert whose strength was not the least bit inferior to his own!

"No."

"I'm here to rent a room. I'll first observe the Misty Forest for a while before deciding whether to go in."

Lin Yang smiled faintly.

"That makes sense. The Misty Forest is extremely dangerous, after all. If you decide to enter the Misty Forest, you can come here. We'll provide you with a map and teammates!"

As he spoke, the young man took out a map from beneath the counter.

It was said to be a map, but what was drawn on it was only the area of Black Forest Village.

"The rooms on this map that are checked are already occupied. Where do you want to stay? If it's in the core area, the price may be a bit higher."

The young man pointed at the buildings drawn on the map as he spoke.

"I'll stay here."

After observing it for a moment, Lin Yang pointed at a house closest to the edge of the Misty Forest and said.

The moment he said this, the young man's gaze toward Lin Yang filled with astonishment, and he reminded him, "Are you sure you want to stay here?"

"Is there a problem?" Lin Yang asked.

"This place is close to the Misty Forest. Demonic beasts come out and attack from time to time. In these past two months, two Primal Core Realm experts have already died in there."

"I'd suggest you choose one of the rooms on the outer perimeter instead. The rooms here aren't expensive either, and they can keep you from being attacked by wild beasts!"

"No need. I'll take that one."

Lin Yang smiled faintly.

"All right, then. Three Pure Origin Pills a month. How long do you plan to stay?"

Seeing Lin Yang insist, the young clerk stopped trying to dissuade him. When he spoke, the look he gave Lin Yang was full of amusement.

As he saw it, with Lin Yang's strength at the Lesser Primal Core Realm, if he stayed there, he definitely would not live long.

He had seen far too many people who did not know their own limits.

As the saying went: kind words could not persuade someone determined to die. He had already said everything he should. If the other party refused to listen, then he could not be blamed.

"I'll rent it for one month first."

Lin Yang pretended to be troubled as he took out three Pure Origin Pills from his clothes and placed them on the counter.

The mercenaries around them who had yet to leave

saw that Lin Yang had actually rented the most dangerous place, and all of them, without prior agreement, cast pitying looks at him.

Their meaning could not have been more obvious.

Lin Yang would not live long!

Very soon, the young clerk finished handling the rental arrangements for Lin Yang and handed him a key.

Then he said, "If you want to change to another room, these three Pure Origin Pills won't be refunded."

"Many thanks!"

Lin Yang nodded and said, "By the way, who was that woman just now?"

"I'd advise you not to ask too much. Those people aren't someone the likes of us can afford to offend." The young clerk glanced around, his expression cautious.

Seeing this, Lin Yang took out another Pure Origin Pill and handed it to the young clerk. "Just help me out. I won't go around talking about it."

Seeing the Pure Origin Pill Lin Yang handed over, the young clerk beckoned Lin Yang closer. "That woman is the Saintess of the Great Demonic Sect, Mu Qianqian!"

Thank you, dear readers, for your support.

We've advanced to the next round. Starting tomorrow, there will be a burst of updates!

However, because I need to look up information and consider the reasonableness and direction of the plot, the update burst won't be too huge, but I'll write and update as much as possible!!!
