The Sect Leader Has Taken in a New Female Disciple

Yan Xiaohu cheerfully put his arm around Zhou Qing, his face full of excitement as he said, "When the time comes, you and Sister Pei Yan will be the main attackers. We'll clear the lackeys and assist you. This kind of cooperation is perfect."

"Where is he?" Zhou Qing asked.

Yan Xiaohu said, "Beimang Mine."

Zhou Qing: "..."

The base at the Beimang Mine—he had informed the Master and the others about it before.

The Master had sent several chiefs there to clean it up, so how could he still dare to stay there?

Did he really think he was under cover of darkness?

Interesting!

"Let's hurry and go, delays will bring changes!" Yan Xiaohu urged.

The three of them disguised themselves as disciples of the Cangyan Daoist Palace and headed quickly to the Beimang Mine.

About three days later, Yan Xiaohu suddenly stopped and took out an identity token.

"Sister Shi Zhen said that someone has arrived at the Beimang Mine. To avoid exposure, they quietly withdrew. They are not far ahead of us now!" Yan Xiaohu said.

Lei Luo couldn't wait and said, "Then what are we waiting for? Let's go quickly!"

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Yan Xiaohu teased deliberately.

Lei Luo immediately looked a bit embarrassed and said, "Well, men and women working together are less tired. This is my first time teaming up with two beautiful sisters."

"Look at you!" Yan Xiaohu laughed and said.

Zhou Qing said, "It seems that Sister Pei Yan is a cautious person. This withdrawal is too far; we are at least two days away from the Beimang Mine here."

"Let's go over first and discuss the strategy!" Yan Xiaohu beckoned.

They went over and soon saw a bonfire in a forest ahead in the night.

"Brother Zhou, Brother Yan!" Shi Zhen saw the three of them and immediately got up happily to greet them.

The smile that had just appeared on Zhou Qing's face froze instantly. He almost instinctively reached for the tetanus, but quickly returned to normal.

"Sister Shi Zhen!" The group also greeted back.

Shi Zhen looked happy but seemed a little embarrassed when she looked at Lei Luo and said, "I should call you Brother Lei."

Lei Luo had entered the Nascent Soul stage ten years earlier than Shi Zhen and had not taken any Nascent Soul Formation Pill; the path ahead would be much longer for him.

Lei Luo waved his hand and said, "It's just a title. And if I call you sister, it makes me feel younger."

"You mean I'm old, right?" Shi Zhen rarely joked back, causing Lei Luo some embarrassment.

"Brother Zhou, Brother Yan!" Pei Yan also got up from the fire to greet them.

Her long black hair was tied in a high ponytail, dressed in simple battle clothes, and a soft whip was tied around her waist, the tip lightly swaying, adding to her sprightly and skillful aura with every move she made.

"Greetings, Sister Pei!" The three quickly saluted.

Pei Yan smiled all over and said, "You haven't eaten yet, right? Shi Zhen and I caught some rabbits in the forest, come and join us!"

Lei Luo sniffed. Although they had already reached the level of fasting, it was still nice to occasionally enjoy a feast.

Especially under the starry sky with beautiful women for company.

Yan Xiaohu, whose mouth was watering, grinned and patted his belly, "Smells so good. I didn't expect Sister Pei's cooking skills to be so good. We won't stand on ceremony then."

Zhou Qing also smiled, but his hand clenched tightly under his robe.

He could understand the floating note above Sister Shi Zhen's head, "New Rising Star Junior Brother Zhou," but why did Sister Pei Yan also have a golden note above her head?

Moreover, the handwriting on this note was somewhat blurry, appearing and disappearing intermittently.

But it was still faintly distinguishable, revealing the characters "life" and "beast".

He had never bound Sister Pei Yan.

His Talent Skill "Heart Mirror Vision" was currently at LV4. He had bound only twelve people in total.

Among them were Lu Yaoyao, Li Daoxuan, Yan Xiaohu, Shi Zhen, Jiang Pu, Second Grandpa, Mo Xingjian, Gao Xuan, Immortal Xuan You, Master Xuanji, White Crane, and Sima Demoness.

If it were Second Grandpa transformed, he would be able to see the note clearly.

And among all the people he had bound, only the Sima Demoness, who hated him to the core a year ago, had the note "Live Eater."

This matched the two clearer characters.

Thinking of this, Zhou Qing couldn't help but swallow.

He suddenly remembered that a few days ago, when he left, Elder Jiang Pu had come to him, saying that Sister Pei Yan had encountered danger half a year ago, and her Soul Lamp had become dim. Fortunately, she was rescued in time.

Now it seemed that this was all a well-crafted act by the other side.

The Sima Demoness had indeed taken over again, but he never expected she would choose Sister Pei Yan as her target.

No, it shouldn't be a complete possession, otherwise, the note wouldn't look like that.

Furthermore, once the possession was complete, Sister Pei Yan would be completely dead, and the Soul Lamp Tower would immediately notice.

"She did all of this for today, or rather, for me!!!" Zhou Qing's heart pounded as he seemed to understand something instantly.

No wonder he hadn't heard any news from her for a year; so she had been waiting for him here.

"Fourth Brother, what are you standing around for? Come over here!" Yan Xiaohu sat next to the bonfire and, seeing Zhou Qing standing there, couldn't help but shout.

Zhou Qing forced a smile, pretending to know nothing, and with a grim face, laughed and walked over to sit down.

Pei Yan and Shi Zhen sat opposite, the group forming a circle around the bonfire, looking just like fellow disciples gathering on a normal day.

"You guys should try my senior sister's cooking!" Shi Zhen carefully took the roasted rabbit meat off the wooden rack, warmly inviting them.
