Jiang Wanyue's Old Grudge
"The secret of the 'Corpse King Blood Refinement Art' is actually the reason why I captured the two of them alive. Those who cultivate this Cultivation Method can devour each other's cultivation to enhance their own cultivation," Song Wen said.
Jiang Wanyue's charming expression froze instantly.
Song Wen's words were undoubtedly difficult for her to accept.
She explored the secret realm of "The Corpse King Blood Refinement Art" because:
Nine-Thunder Profound Lord's cultivation was stuck at the Peak Profound Immortal Yuxiao Stage and he could not break through, but he went to great lengths to have her trick others into cultivating the "Corpse King Blood Refinement Art".
Her own cultivation was stuck at the Lingxu Dao Immortal Peak, so she thought that the "Corpse King Blood Refinement Art" might contain some unknown secrets that could help people break through their bottlenecks.
But Song Wen told her that only those who cultivate the "Corpse King Blood Refinement Art" can devour each other's cultivation. However, what she cultivated was not the "Corpse King Blood Refinement Art," but a righteous Cultivation Method.
In that case, wouldn't she have wasted her time?
Jiang Wanyue raised her hand and shoved Song Wen's chest, breaking free from his Song Wen.
Her face immediately darkened, and she stared coldly at Song Wen.
"Gu Huang, you're not lying to me, are you?"
"Absolutely no exaggeration," Song Wen said.
"Since you knew that the secret of the 'Corpse King Blood Refinement Art' was useless to me, why didn't you tell me sooner? Instead, you used it to take advantage of me," Jiang Wanyue said.
Song Wen wanted to respond.
"Hahaha..."
Ji Jinglun's laughter rang out.
"Jiang Wanyue, you've actually met your end..."
Before he could finish speaking, the crimson tentacles wrapped around him melted into blood plasma, forming a blood cocoon that covered his entire body, rendering him unable to utter a sound.
The same thing happened on the side of the Corpse Daoist Yin.
After the surroundings quieted down, Song Wen spoke.
"It's not that I intentionally lied to you, but we were irreconcilable enemies back then, and I had no choice but to resort to this tactic. Furthermore, the destruction of your son's body was indeed caused by me, and I feel deeply remorseful."
As soon as he finished speaking, Song Wen flipped his wrist, and a Soul Bottle appeared, slowly floating towards Jiang Wanyue.
"Your son's spirit is here; I hope Madam will accept it."
Jiang Wanyue took the Soul Bottle and examined it with her Divine Sense. The coldness on her face lessened slightly.
She tucked the Soul Bottle into her sleeve and hesitated for a moment before speaking.
"Gu Huang, I can let bygones be bygones regarding the 'Corpse King Blood Refinement Art.' But please do me another favor as compensation."
What is it?
Song Wen did not immediately agree.
Jiang Wanyue is no longer of much use to him; she's just a charming beauty. Helping her would come at a great cost, Song Wen would naturally refuse. But if it's just a small favor, he wouldn't mind lending a hand.
"Do you know why, after you destroyed Kui'er's body, I was initially furious and wanted to kill you to avenge myself, but later I no longer hated you and even willingly devoted myself to serving you?" Jiang Wanyue asked.
Song Wen shook his head and did not reply.
"There are two reasons. First, your strength is too great; I cannot kill you and had no choice but to sacrifice myself to retrieve Kui'er's soul. But this is not the real reason. The real reason is..."
As Jiang Wanyue spoke of this, her gaze wandered, as if she were lost in some memories.
"As you know, my dao companion to Xiao Wenyan was ordered by the Purple Star Immortal Sect, Non-Self own volition."
"The Purple Star Immortal Sect has shown me kindness in raising and nurturing me. I was originally an orphan, and it was the sect that saved me, gave me food, and taught me cultivation. Therefore, I do not resent the sect."
"However, before I got married, I had a sworn enemy in the sect named Yi Runan. She was no less beautiful than me in terms of looks and cultivation talent, but she liked to oppose me at every turn and compete with me in everything. The gossipy people in the sect often compared the two of us. Over time, we became rivals, both openly and secretly."
"Our personalities are also very different. She is warm and friendly, always smiling, and everyone in the sect praises her for her approachability. I, on the other hand, am aloof and taciturn, never speaking more than necessary. Even our Cultivation Method are contrasting; she cultivates Fire Element, and I cultivate ice. Some people in the sect say, 'Yi Runan is a spring breeze, Jiang Wanyue is frost.'"
"Of course, I didn't care about these rumors. However, later, a large number of Evil Spirit Cultivator emerged in various parts of the Purple Star Immortal Domain, causing trouble and disrupting the peace of the Purple Star Immortal Domain. In order to suppress the endless stream of evil spirits, the sect had to win over the second-rate forces in the Immortal Domain, so it selected a group of women to marry the leaders of various forces. Among them were me and Yi Runan."
"At that time, none of us women had any intention of getting married, but for the sake of the sect, no one dared to disobey. Since we had to get married, the only thing we could fight over was who to marry."
"Many women were initially attracted to Yuan Zhe of the Cloud Pill Sect. Yuan Zhe was not only tall and handsome, but also possessed profound cultivation and outstanding alchemy skills. Furthermore, he had dao companion, but unfortunately passed away, and he never became intimate with any woman again, demonstrating the depth of his affection. He was undoubtedly the ideal husband of countless women in the world."
As if recalling something that angered her, Jiang Wanyue's hands gradually clenched, and her eyes turned fierce.
"However, in the end, I married Xiao Wenyan, while Yi Runan married Yuan Zhe as she wished. Moreover, although my son Xiao Yuankui was quite talented and, under my careful guidance, successfully advanced to the Immortal Realm, Yi Runan's son, Yuan Yuze, was even more outstanding in talent, and his cultivation had already reached the Mid Lingxu Dao Immortal Stage; furthermore, his alchemy skills had been True Disciple by Yuan Zhe, and he was now a famous Immortal-grade Alchemist."
Upon hearing this, Song Wen found it difficult to understand.
They compare cultivation, beauty, husbands, sons...
I don't understand why these women compare themselves to each other in everything.
Everyone should live their own life; why compare yourself to others? It's utterly absurd!
"Madam, is there anything I can do to help?" Song Wen asked, puzzled.
"Kui'er's physical body has been destroyed, so naturally she needs a new body to possess. Yuan Yuze is the body I chose for Kui'er. I have personally experienced the pain of losing a child, and I know the suffering it causes. I also want Yi Runan to experience it, and her son will be completely destroyed, beyond saving," Jiang Wanyue said.
"This..." Song Wen looked troubled. "The Cloud Pill Sect's power is no weaker than the Xiao Household's. Moreover, the Cloud Pill Sect is skilled in Alchemy and has good relations with the major powers of the Purple Star Immortal Domain. Offending the Cloud Pill Sect will inevitably lead to endless troubles."
Jiang Wanyue frowned, revealing a hint of displeasure.
"Gu Huang, you don't want to help me."
Song Wen shook his head and said, "Madam, Non-Self standing idly by, but the Cloud Pill Sect is too powerful. Even if your son possesses Yuan Yuze's body, I'm afraid he won't be able to keep his physical form. Instead, the Cloud Pill Sect will hunt him down and he'll end up with his soul scattered. I'm only thinking of your son."
"Don't worry about that, I already have a plan," Jiang Wanyue continued. "I have already found a Secret Method. After Kui'er possesses Yuan Yuze's body, she can cultivate according to this technique, and her appearance will change drastically. She can also completely erase all traces left by Yuan Yuze, so no one will be able to trace her."
