Both Refined Features and a Bear's Back
Helm Master Jing Mo returned to his cave and activated a communication array used to contact the 'Limitless Demon Sect Branch' —because the Limitless Demon Sect's Guardian Sect Formation was always active, it was impossible to contact the outside world via mobile phone from within the sect.
Steward Chen from the branch connected to the communication array and cautiously asked, "Master, what are your orders?"
The members of this branch were incredibly unlucky to have encountered a leader like Jing Mo. Every member of the branch had been beaten up, and all of them were extremely afraid of Jing Mo, fearing that they might accidentally anger him and be beaten half to death.
"Check for me. After Gongzi Hai Blood Sacrifice the Moon Saber Sect half a month ago, a low-level cultivator stole a Blood God Diamond from him. Can we find that low-level cultivator now?" Helm Master Jing Mo, said in a deep voice.
"Yes, I will check immediately," Steward Chen replied quickly.
"Tell me when you find the result." Although Helm Master Jing Mo an extremely volatile personality, he can still maintain an average level of rationality when he is not enraged.
Within the branch, Steward Chen immediately instructed his subordinates to begin investigating the Gongzi Hai incident.
The Limitless Demon Sect has a vast intelligence network, with every branch scattered throughout the world forming part of this network. Each branch also has the authority to access this vast intelligence network to find the information it needs.
Soon, they found useful information from the intelligence network of the 'Limitless Demon Sect'.
After Gongzi Hai had his 'Blood God Diamond' taken away, he commissioned the intelligence network of the 'Jiangnan Limitless Demon Sect Branch' to investigate the information about the low-level cultivator who was 'under great pressure from the mountain of books'.
Five days ago, the branch responsible for the Jiangnan area submitted a report on the "immense pressure from studying".
However, many parts of this intelligence report were marked with significant problems, indicating that there are still many doubts surrounding this information.
For example, this person, who was under great pressure from studying, had always appeared in front of the world as an ordinary student before this year.
However, the alchemist 'Medicine Master,' who was somewhat famous in the Cultivator World, had somehow developed a good friendly relationship with him. His relationship with Su Clan’s Seven also appeared out of nowhere.
Besides, it seems that behind this person who is under great pressure from books, there are several powerful senior cultivators.
However, when the Limitless Demon Sect branch responsible for the Jiangnan tried to conduct further investigation, an unexpected incident occurred.
Three days ago, the Demon Sect branch in Jiangnan was completely eradicated.
It was Su Clan’s Seven who did it; with just one sword, he wiped out the entire branch of the Demon Sect.
Afterwards, A-Qi left in a carefree manner. Then, the logistics personnel of the Heavenly River Su Clan arrived at the Demon Sect's branch and emptied it of all its treasures and resources. Even some of the data and intelligence that hadn't been destroyed in time were taken away by the Heavenly River Su Clan.
Fortunately, the intelligence data stored in the branch was not highly classified and would not involve the Limitless Demon Sect itself.
"That madman Su Clan’s Seven!" When Steward Chen saw this, his heart trembled. One man, one sword, wiped out a branch of the Limitless Demon Sect!
A branch of the Demon Sect, composed of at least eight hundred disciples, along with its Guardian Sect Array, was even capable of holding off some newly promoted 'Sixth-Grade True Lord'! Yet, it was defeated by Su Clan’s Seven, a mere Fifth-Grade Spirit Emperor.
"Speaking of which... our branch seems to be quite close to the branch in Jiangnan." Steward Chen was startled and immediately contacted the leader.
Helm Master Jing Mo of the helm, spoke through the communication array, "Have you found the intelligence about 'the pressure of the mountain of books'?"
"Yes, Master. I'll pass on the information about the pressure on Shushan now—also, the Limitless Demon Sect branch in Jiangnan has been wiped out, by Su Clan’s Seven. And our location is quite close to the original Jiangnan branch. Shouldn't we take precautions?" Steward Chen carefully organized his words, trying his best not to anger Helm Master Jing Mo.
"Tsk, it's that Gongzi Hai guy who caused trouble again, getting involved with that madman Su Clan’s Seven! Don't worry about Su Clan’s Seven, someone from the sect will go and deal with him soon! I just need to find that 'Book Mountain Pressure' guy, and I'll make a decision after I've reviewed his information." Helm Master Jing Mo, said in a deep voice.
When Steward Chen heard that the sect would deal with Su Clan’s Seven, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Helm Master Jing Mo hung up the call, a cold smile playing on his lips—Would the sect deal with Su Clan’s Seven? Who would they send?
Even the Frenzied Tyrant Demon Lord suffered a hidden loss under A-Qi's ultimate move and fled back with Gongzi Hai and the other two juniors.
I wish my branch could be destroyed by Su Clan’s Seven. Only then would I have a chance to return to the main branch of the 'Limitless Demon Sect'!
He wished his branch of the family would die.
Afterwards, Helm Master Jing Mo took out the intelligence report about the 'great pressure of the mountain of books' sent by Steward Chen and read it carefully.
"Heh, full of doubts? That's hilarious. I can tell at a glance that this 'Book Mountain Pressure' is just a lucky kid who got involved with the Medicine Master and thus became a cultivator, right? And Su Clan’s Seven already had a good relationship with the Medicine Master, so it's normal for him to hook up with Su Clan’s Seven." Helm Master Jing Mo believed that he had unique insight and saw through the truth of the matter at a glance.
Then he contacted Steward Chen again.
"Steward Chen, send a shrewd person over there to find that 'Book Mountain Pressure' guy and find an opportunity to capture him alive and bring him back to the branch. Don't worry, the Medicine Master and Su Clan’s Seven aren't with him. Capturing a mere cultivator who just completed the Foundation Establishment stage is a piece of cake. Then, when I get back, I'll extract the information about the 'Blood God Diamond' from him." Helm Master Jing Mo laughed triumphantly.
Steward Chen nodded and said, "Yes, Master, I will arrange for men to go there immediately."
After severing contact with Helm Master Jing Mo, Steward Chen sighed inwardly and asked his subordinates, "Has anyone from our branch been active in the 'Jiangnan University Town' area recently?"
"Reporting to you, sir, I remember 'Little Kui-Kui' volunteered to go to the Jiangnan area yesterday, saying she wanted to investigate something." The subordinate beside him couldn't help but feel the hairs on his arms stand up when he mentioned the name Little Kui-Kui.
Little Kui-Kui is First-Grade Cultivator who is currently at the critical juncture of attempting to break through the 'Dragon Gate Leap'. She is tactful and adept at concealing her aura, making her a very reliable intelligence gathering disciple in their branch.
However, despite the adorable name "Little Kui-Kui," the real person is a towering giant, standing two meters tall, with bulging muscles all over his body. What's even more disheartening is that he also has a delicate-looking face.
Who says someone with delicate features can't be broad-shouldered and muscular? Little Kui-Kui has defied people's perceptions.
"Little Kui-Kui ... um, I feel it would be better if you called him by his Daoist name, 'Sunflower Cultivator'," Steward Chen said seriously.
"Yes, Sunflower Cultivator." The subordinate felt that this title wasn't much better; it was still unbearable to look at directly.
"Let Little Kui-Kui... ah! Let the Sunflower Cultivator contact that Book Mountain Pressure guy and see if we can find an opportunity to abduct him. He's just a cultivator who has just completed Foundation Establishment; Little Sunflower Cultivator is more than capable of taking him down!" Steward Chen said forcefully.
"No problem, I'll contact him right away." The subordinate took out his phone and dialed the Sunflower Cultivator's number.
After a pleasant ringtone, the call was answered.
"Sunflower Cultivator, I have a mission," the subordinate Dao Initiation.
"Ugh, calling me Little Kui-Kui!" a gruff voice came from the other end of the line.
The subordinate looked up at the sky, his face constricted, then gritted his teeth and said, "Ahem, Steward Chen wants you to contact the next Foundation Establishment cultivator named 'Book Mountain Pressure'. If possible, capture him and bring him back to the sect. I'll send you his information in a bit!"
"Book mountain pressure? Oh, I've already looked into his information, no need to send it. Leave the task to me!" The Sunflower Cultivator hung up the phone.
"Hahaha, just as I thought! This guy under so much pressure will definitely attract the attention of the higher-ups of the Limitless Demon Sect. As long as I take him down, my chance to rise to prominence will come!" The Sunflower Cultivator laughed heartily, his chest muscles trembling with each laugh.
After laughing, he made another phone call.
"Hello, is this Young Mistress Tang? Haha, it's me Little Kui-Kui! I need your help with something; I need you to steal something for me," said the Sunflower Cultivator.
"Young Mistress Tang" is her nickname; she is a member of the Empty Thieves' Sect and has a strong talent for breaking restrictions and formations. Since her debut, she has accumulated numerous achievements.
One should not be single-minded and go down a dead-end path; one should always be prepared for both possibilities.
The Sunflower Cultivator himself had to confront the "immense pressure from the mountain of books" head-on.
Then, we'll ask Young Mistress Tang to go to that family with so much academic pressure and look for the 'Blood God Diamond'! Young Mistress Tang owes him a favor, and now we can use it!

At this moment, Song Shuhang led Senior White onto the bus.
"Strange, I feel like the buses are especially crowded today?" Song Shuhang felt that the number of people on the buses today was several times higher than usual, and the carriages were packed to the brim.
Moreover, the crowd always seemed to be crowding towards where he and Senior White were?
Wait! Shake your way to your seat?
Song Shuhang immediately looked up and gazed at the crowd around him—sure enough, among the ever-pushing crowd, most people were staring intently at Senior White, some even with flushed cheeks and rapid breathing.
Is it because of the strange charm that Senior White possesses?
Wait a minute, Senior White seemed to have suppressed his charm after he emerged from seclusion, didn't he?
After he emerged from seclusion, Song Shuhang no longer felt that uncontrollable heartbeat when looking at him. Why had that strange charm reappeared?
Song Shuhang quickly looked at Senior White.
Then... he saw Senior White's eyes glazed over, lost in thought.
After looking at him for a while, Song Shuhang's heart began to beat faster involuntarily.
"I'll never take Senior White on the bus again," Song Shuhang vowed to himself.
Fortunately, they arrived at their stop soon.
"Senior, we've arrived!" Song Shuhang patted Senior White, waking him from his daze.
Senior White snapped out of his daze and chuckled, "Oh? So fast?"
The two of them finally managed to squeeze off the bus.
"Let's go, we'll go buy you a cell phone and a SIM card first," Song Shuhang sighed.
When I return to Jiangnan University Town, I will definitely choose a less crowded route!
Song Shuhang thought to himself.
There are indeed a few sparsely populated roads, but they involve taking a long detour...
