White-Robed Zither Demon

The Great Void Secret Realm.

Wang Baole and Nangong Yu gathered together with several fellow disciples at the True Fate Realm.

As the group spent more time in the Great Void Secret Realm, they began to huddle together for warmth and support.

That day, the group saw many cultivators flying towards a certain place. Without thinking much of it, they followed behind them.

After flying for a while, they saw a huge vortex of spiritual energy above a valley several miles away, with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth continuously converging towards that valley.

Nangong Yu turned his gaze to the cultivator who was hesitating not far away.

"Fellow Daoist, may I ask what valley lies ahead? Why have I not seen such a spiritual place on the map of the Great Void Secret Realm?"

Upon hearing this, the disciple turned around disdainfully. However, when he saw that Nangong Yu was wearing the robes of the Dao Dao-Seeking Academy, his expression changed, and he became extremely respectful, saying:

"Reporting to the fairy, ahead lies the Supreme Yin Valley. Originally, there were only Supreme Yin Stone there, but a female cultivator named White-Robed Zither Demon used some unknown technique to absorb all the Spiritual Qi within a radius of dozens of miles for her cultivation, and it became like this."

"The White-Robed Zither Demon?"

Upon hearing this address, Wang Baole's expression changed slightly, and the image of his third senior sister immediately came to mind.

This is indeed something that the Third Senior Sister would do.

Nangong Yu then asked, "Wouldn't such a grand display attract attention, thus disturbing her cultivation?"

The cultivator said, "What the fairy says is very true. However, nowadays, most people dare not disturb the White-Robed Zither Demon's cultivation. Many unlucky people in the Great Evolution Holy Land were wiped out because they provoked the White-Robed Zither Demon. It seems that more than 30 cultivators have perished, including some Heavenly Origin cultivators."

Besides the Great Evolution Holy Land, many people from other forces were also suppressed by the White-Robed Zither Demon.

The prodigies of the Great Evolution Holy Land are now rallying their sect disciples, along with cultivators from other forces, to exorcise the demon.

Which of these exceptional talents have passed by?

Wang Baole asked, his voice tinged with excitement.

The cultivator said, "Dugu Ming, the Sky Sword Master of the Great Yan Holy Land, Wang Lie, the Black Tiger Venerable, and Chao Xiu, the Pagoda-Bearing Warrior, have all arrived, except for Lei Aojie, the candidate for Holy Son. This is going to be quite a show."

Upon hearing this, Wang Baole said to the crowd, "Let's go, hurry to Supreme Yin Valley."

This was the first time Nangong Yu had seen Wang Baole so agitated, but she didn't ask any questions and simply followed him.

Seeing this, the other disciples of the Dao-Seeking Academy had no choice but to follow.

After a short while, the group arrived outside Supreme Yin Valley, where disciples from various factions were already standing.

Besides the White-Robed Zither Demon mentioned by everyone, there were also more than a dozen disciples from the Dao-Seeking Academy in the valley.

Upon witnessing this scene, Nangong Yu subconsciously murmured, "Wasn't it said that the White-Robed Zither Demon killed many disciples from various major forces? How come my fellow disciples from the Dao-Seeking Academy are still safe and sound?"

A bystander remarked, "It's strange, really. The White-Robed Zither Demon didn't kill any of the disciples from the Dao-Seeking Academy. Even when he did, he only threw them into the lake, and after the battle, he had them bury the bodies."

"Could the White-Robed Zither Demon be someone from our Dao-Seeking Academy?"

After listening, Nangong Yu muttered to himself.

Wang Baole, standing to the side, said calmly, "If I'm not mistaken, it should be my third senior sister. No one else harbors such deep hatred for the Great Evolution Holy Land."

Upon hearing this, everyone around was stunned, and the members of other factions instinctively kept their distance from them.

Nangong Yu asked, "Then shall we lend Senior Sister Qin a hand?"

Wang Baole said, "Of course, but I won't force you fellow disciples to lend a hand. Third Senior Sister has caused such a commotion, so Senior Brother and Second Senior Brother should be on their way."

Several inner disciples who were hesitant about whether to withdraw immediately brightened up upon hearing this.

That's right, how could they forget about Senior Brother Xiao? With Senior Brother Xiao around, what are the people from the Great Evolution Holy Land?

Everyone said in unison, "We are willing to lend a helping hand to Senior Sister Qin."

"Good!"

After Wang Baole responded, he led everyone and flew into the valley.

As soon as they landed, their fellow disciples from the Dao-Seeking Academy came to greet them.

"Junior Sister Nangong, what brings you here?" A true disciple stepped forward somewhat awkwardly and asked.

Although he already knew that the person in the pavilion in the middle of the lake was his Junior Sister Qin, losing to the True Fate Realm in the Heavenly Origin Realm still made him lose face.

Nangong Yu smiled and said, "Naturally, we're here to help Senior Sister Qin, so that the world knows that our Dao-Seeking Academy is not to be trifled with!"

Before she could finish speaking, a cheer erupted from the horizon. "Senior Brother Dugu is here!"

Everyone subconsciously looked up at the sky and saw a dashing and elegant swordsman flying towards them on his sword.

Before he even landed, a powerful pressure swept towards the pavilion in the middle of the lake.

Qin Qin seemed completely oblivious and continued playing the zither.

Thump...

A melody from a zither rang out, and the oppressive aura instantly dissipated.

"Snort!"

Dugu Ming sneered, "You do have some strength. No wonder you dared to slaughter my Great Evolution Holy Land disciples so ruthlessly. Today, I, Dugu Ming, will show you the methods of my Great Evolution Holy Land!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he took a step forward, his aura becoming even more imposing.

Wow!!!

A tiger's roar suddenly echoed through the sky, interrupting Dugu Ming's actions. He glanced disapprovingly in the direction from which the roar came and said indifferently, "Wang Lie, what do you mean by this? I was here first!"

"Senior Brother Dugu, don't misunderstand. I'm just giving you an extra layer of insurance. After all, this woman is skilled at killing with her zither music, and a straightforward swordsman like you might not be able to gain the upper hand."

As the sound rang out, a magnificent Black Tiger came riding the wind from the horizon, with a carefree young man sitting on Black Tiger back.

Holding a folding fan, he wore a mocking expression, completely disregarding Dugu Ming and Qin Qin.

"You..."

Dugu Ming was furious that this guy would insult him in front of so many people.

"With two formidable enemies at hand, let us not spoil the harmony."

A rough voice suddenly rang out, which greatly reduced Dugu Ming's anger.

The crowd looked in the direction of the sound and saw a burly man with a resolute face sitting cross-legged on the hilltop.

He seemed to blend into the mountain; if he hadn't spoken up, no one would have noticed him.

Dugu Ming asked, "Chao Xiu, are you going to get involved too?"

"No, no, no, don't misunderstand. I just don't want outsiders to laugh at me. If the two of you can't reach an agreement, I have a good idea. Let's fight according to the rankings of the competition. Whoever ranks last in the competition goes first."

Chao Xiu spoke with a half-smile, and it was hard for outsiders to imagine that a body cultivator could be so cunning.

Upon hearing this, Dugu Ming's face instantly darkened. In this competition, he had been defeated by both of them. However, he accepted his defeat to Chao Xiu, but Wang Lie had only won because he was still recovering from serious injuries. He was extremely dissatisfied with that.

Wang Lie clapped his hands and said, "Great idea! This is an excellent idea! Dugu Ming, you're the weakest, you go first!"

Dugu Ming's face was ashen. The only way for him to regain his dignity now was to kill the White-Robed Zither Demon.

"Alright, don't be too smug for too long, I'm going to take her down right now!"

After saying that, he suddenly drew his long sword, and a dazzling sword light flashed, drawing everyone's attention to him.

Just then, a disdainful voice rang out, quite inopportunely.

"The Great Evolution Holy Land has lost all shame! Three grown men beating up a woman, and they even need to discuss it for so long—it's truly laughable!!!"
