Cultivation Simulator: Shocking the Academy

Even though Qi Ling was brave, she quivered, and her face turned pale upon witnessing such a gruesome sight.

Bai Ya led the two of them slowly to the front of the main hall. Ghost Howl stood there with a blank expression beneath the Imperial Palace, his slightly bent back resembling an ancient stone sculpture eroded by time.

On the seat of the Imperial Palace, half-reclined a stunning and mysteriously enchanting woman!

A bewitching purple gown wrapped around her voluptuously charming figure, and a head of red wine-colored, luxurious long hair was styled in an elegant Phoenix hairdo. Her exquisite face was as fair as snow, but because of that flirtatious smile, it seemed immensely alluring. She lazily leaned against the seat, her legs slightly bent and pressed together, revealing a length of white, jade-like calf.

The moment Su Chen lifted his head, his eyes were pierced by her beauty, and his heart, which had sunk into the depths, suddenly started pounding violently!

What a beautiful woman!

Seeing him staring at her blankly, a faint red light flickered in the woman's long, autumn-water-like eyes, and a subtle smile appeared at the corners of her mouth.

"Bai Ya, who are they?"

Bai Ya respectfully bowed slightly and said, "Report to the Sect Leader, these two are disciples of the Carefree Sect. They were eavesdropping from behind the giant rock and got caught by me."

Upon hearing this, the woman, who was lazily half-reclined, suddenly changed her expression and sat upright from the wide seat!

Su Chen's heart trembled. Sect Leader? Is she the Sect Leader of the Blood Sect? How could that be?

The woman's originally gentle eyes turned sharp in an instant, sweeping over Su Chen and Qi Ling's uneasy faces like a sword. Her expression shifted several times before she suppressed her unstable aura and said coldly, "Then why bring them down here? You could have killed them directly at the mountaintop."

"Sect Leader, Bai Ya dared not defy the instructions of the Sect Leader of the Godless Sect, your subordinate never dares to disobey..."

A hint of fear appeared on Bai Ya's face, something that Su Chen and Qi Ling found unbelievable.

"Hmph, good thing you remembered the instructions from the Godless. But you should also know, I've always hated people from the Carefree Sect, right?"

Bai Ya nodded slightly, his tone hesitant, "But the instructions from the Sect Leader of the Godless, your subordinate..."

"Enough, no need to explain, I was just joking with you."

The woman suddenly changed her stern expression, revealing a bewitching smile, "Just a test of your loyalty to the Godless, hope you don't take it to heart."

"The Sect Leader thinks too much, how dare your subordinate doubt the Sect Leader's intentions."

Bai Ya lowered his head.

The woman stood up, and her gown flowed down, covering her white, jade-like calves. She slowly walked down the hall, like a rose blooming in hell, stirring the hearts of all who saw her.

Su Chen swallowed, keeping his head down, not daring to look at her.

"Little one, what's your name?"

The woman lifted Su Chen's chin with her slender fingers, smiling as she looked at his panicked face.

At this moment, Qi Ling suddenly opened her mouth and replied, "Honorable Sect Leader, his name is Su Chen, he is the most gifted disciple of the Carefree Sect in recent years."

Su Chen looked back at Qi Ling in disbelief, his face filled with shock and astonishment, "You..."

"Hehe, quite a sharp-tongued little girl. And who are you?"

The woman turned to Qi Ling, a smile playing on her lips, but a cold, sinister light flashed in her eyes.

Qi Ling's heart jolted, but she met the piercing gaze bravely, "Replying to the Sect Leader, my name is Qi Ling, also a disciple of the Carefree Sect."

"Then you must know, anyone from a righteous sect who meets my Blood Sect is doomed, right?"

The woman spoke leisurely, as if discussing trivial gossip.

"I know, but I hope the Sect Leader can spare my life. I can keep silent and never reveal any secrets of the Blood Sect."

Qi Ling said with steady eyes.

"Oh really? And what do you offer as a guarantee, your little life? What if you escape, where will I find you then?"

Just as Qi Ling was about to speak again, Bai Ya suddenly approached the woman and whispered something in her ear. The woman's expression changed slightly, and then her smile deepened.

She looked at Qi Ling again, her red lips slightly pressed together, as if contemplating something, then she slowly spoke in a haunting tone under Su Chen's astonished gaze, "Leave this brat, kill that little girl!"

Qi Ling's face turned instantly pale!

Subordination

"No!"

When Su Chen shouted those two words, even he wasn't sure why. He just knew he couldn't watch Qi Ling die before his eyes.

Everyone stared at him in surprise for a long time before the woman smiled mysteriously and said, "She so easily pushed you into the fire pit, why do you still want to save her?"

Su Chen shook his head obscurely, "I don't know, please don't kill her..."

"If I let her go, would you be willing to do anything I say?"

The woman smiled as she looked at Su Chen.

Su Chen silently lowered his head. He was hesitating.

Qi Ling looked at him with a complex expression and yet a seemingly relieved slight smile appeared on her face.

Originally, Qi Ling thought that revealing they were disciples of the Carefree Sect would spare them from death. Unexpectedly, the Blood Sect Leader Mo Yue no longer cared about this special identity? But what puzzled Qi Ling was, from the conversation between Mo Yue and Bai Ya earlier, it was clear she hadn't abandoned the previous Sect Leader Ao Wushen's promise. So why violate Ao Wushen's final wish not to kill Carefree Sect disciples and aim to kill her?

Yes, the reason Bai Ya hadn't dared to kill them directly at the mountaintop was because of the late Blood Sect Leader Ao Wushen's final wish. Years ago, Ao Wushen competed for a woman with the former Carefree Sect Leader Zuo Qianqiu, leading to Ao Wushen attacking Three Pure Ones Mountain at all costs, only to suffer unexpected heavy losses due to the Carefree Sect's strong resistance, and he himself was severely wounded by a behind-the-scenes expert of the Carefree Sect, trapped on Yuefeng! Mo Yue, the Blood Sect's Deputy Sect Leader who secretly admired Ao Wushen, risked her life to rescue him, experiencing several failures and hardships. She finally reached Yuefeng as Ao Wushen lay dying but found that the enlightened Ao Wushen had already let go of his grudges against Zuo Qianqiu and the Carefree Sect, and requested that as long as the Blood Sect existed, no one was to kill Carefree Sect disciples. This dying wish had been carried out by the Blood Sect for more than a decade. Yet Mo Yue's hatred for the Carefree Sect wasn't something that a mere dying wish could eliminate!
