This Is Not the Female Demon Lord I Remembered

Under everyone's watchful eye, Bai Sheng's mouth slightly opened as if wanting to say something more, but as Liang Yi and Su Youyi withdrew their longswords, his pupils finally shifted from being filled with murderous intent to lifeless.

Seeing this, Wan Tinggui immediately expanded her Divine Sense, enveloping the entire Secret Realm with the power of the Secret Realm Key to monitor it.

"How is it?"

Liang Yi, Su Youyi, and Yue Bai turned their gaze towards Wan Tinggui, not daring to let down their guard before getting a definite result, for cultivators of the Eighth Realm were indeed too hard to kill.

"No more problems!"

After repeatedly confirming that Bai Sheng had not abandoned his physical body to fuse with the laws for the sake of survival, a beaming smile finally appeared on Wan Tinggui's face as she looked towards Liang Yi.

Hearing Wan Tinggui's confirmation, everyone finally completely relaxed.

Su Youyi quietly leaned against Liang Yi, now in a state so exhausted she had no more strength, as if her oil was drained and her lamp extinguished. If her senior brother hadn't come to her rescue at the critical moment, she might have not lasted any longer even before then.

Wan Tinggui had previously informed everyone of the method to kill an Eighth Realm cultivator. This Secret Realm only restricted the White Tiger Envoy's escape, but to truly corner him, it was necessary to shatter his law-enveloped Secret Realm.

Every step in their plan aimed at this purpose, whether it be the traps outside the Secret Realm or the previous Qianyuan Sun-Shutting Nine Frost Array.

Unfortunately, Bai Sheng had escaped before the peak power of the Black Sun Storm hit, and the damage to the laws of the Secret Realm was also different from what they had expected, leading to Bai Sheng having some other means to resist Su Youyi's fatal sword strike.

"It's outrageous, Uncle Orange even destroyed that guy's Storage Ring."

Wan Tinggui sighed softly, looking at Uncle Orange who had returned to his normal size and was now deep in slumber in the half-air.

"During battle, situations can vary infinitely, it's impossible to account for everything."

Liang Yi, seeing Wan Tinggui's somewhat guilty expression, could only bitterly smile and comfort her like this.

"Brother Liang Yi is right. If it weren't for Sister Wan's detailed planning, we couldn't have succeeded in killing the White Tiger Envoy."

Yue Bai also spoke up in support.

"Sigh..."

Wan Tinggui smiled and put away her guilt. If it hadn't been for the extraordinary strength shown by Liang Yi and Su Youyi this time, they might have ended up completely destroyed.

Although she had some preparations for plan failure before the operation started, considering the previous circumstances, those preparations might not have saved everyone.

"Don't think about all those pointless things anymore. After all, the outcome is good, isn't it? Everything has risks, and a plan merely greatly reduces them."

Su Youyi weakly lifted her head, her face showing a bright and beautiful smile.

At this moment, Su Youyi truly felt an indescribable happiness. Having avenged a great enemy and being able to continue her journey with her senior brother, this outcome was undoubtedly due in no small part to Wan Tinggui.

"Alright, alright, let's quickly begin healing,"

Wan Tinggui said irritably looking around at everyone. She was only momentarily shaken, yet it felt like they thought she was on the verge of something more serious.

With no great enemy at hand, everyone's behavior became much more relaxed.

Wan Tinggui and Yue Bai were in relatively good condition. The two went together to assess the damages to the Secret Realm and began the repairs of the Blood Purification Sect's Inheritance Land, while Liang Yi stayed behind to watch over Su Youyi and Uncle Orange.

Su Youyi and Uncle Orange were both severely injured, with Uncle Orange even being in a comatose state from his grave injuries.

However, aside from the damage caused by Bai Sheng's constant counterattacks, most of Uncle Orange's wounds were actually caused by the two swords from Su Youyi and Liang Yi.

Such injuries were relatively easier to treat. Liang Yi removed the complicated Sword Qi remaining in Uncle Orange's wounds one by one, and even though still in his slumber, Uncle Orange's furrowed brows relaxed, finding a more comfortable position to continue his rest.

Liang Yi then looked towards his little sister, who was sitting inside the array with a Qinglian hovering above her head.

Her injuries were even more severe than Uncle Orange's. After all, she had actually started fragmenting her Divine Soul in preparation to perish together with Bai Sheng. Even though she had only just begun, the injuries caused were extremely serious and had even slightly touched her foundations.

Considering the various severe wounds she had endured, it was a miracle she had lasted until now.

But even with such severe injuries, Su Youyi's recovery was much faster than Uncle Orange's.

"Elder Qinglian was really powerful this time..."

Liang Yi chuckled softly, wondering if Elder Qinglian had been drained dry.

This time, both he and his junior sister had borrowed a vast amount of Qinglian's Origin from Elder Qinglian. It was as if Elder Qinglian knew they were in crisis, selflessly giving Liang Yi and his junior sister the Qinglian Origin, making Elder Qinglian a great contributor to this success.

"With the Spirit Pills from Medicine Valley, the arrays of the Blood Purification Sect, and the presence of Qinglian Creation, I suppose it won't take too long for my junior sister to recover to her original state, right?"

Liang Yi diverted his gaze from the picture-perfect face of his junior sister and after a careful investigation, he wasn't worried about her condition anymore.

Having some free time, Liang Yi finally took a look at his mission panel. The tasks displayed were now showing as completed.

"Is this the White Tiger Authority?"

Not yet looking at the mission rewards, Liang Yi weirdly took out a miniaturized version of a little white tiger from his backpack.

If the White Tiger phantom cast by Bai Sheng was full of an intimidating oppressive force, making one's heart palpitate just from a single glance, then the young version of the White Tiger that Liang Yi held in his hands now seemed like it had just been born, lacking any grandeur but instead full of cuteness from head to toe.

The White Tiger appeared to be deep in slumber now, and Liang Yi was even a bit unsure whether this White Tiger was a real living creature or the manifested White Tiger Authority. Either way, it seemed to be sleeping pretty soundly.

Liang Yi gently rubbed the little white tiger's body with his index finger and then rubbed the side of Mr. Tangerine with the palm of his hand, finding the feel of both to be surprisingly similar.

"Got Mr. Cat, should I make it a complete set with a dog? Although they're different species, training them should be no problem, right?"

Holding the White Tiger that had just been extracted by the system in one hand and stroking his chin with the other, Liang Yi fell into contemplation.

"'White Tiger Seven Kills Technique', looks mighty impressive, too bad it's not suitable for me."

Liang Yi flipped through his backpack. The White Tiger Seven Kills Technique that Bai Sheng himself practiced had now fallen into his hands. This cultivation technique was extremely deadly and indeed perfectly suited for cultivators like the White Tiger Envoy.

Moreover, once the authority of the White Tiger was assumed, its power could reach a whole new level, upgrading from a second-grade killing technique directly to a first-grade technique. Liang Yi had never seen such a situation before.

"I wonder if Senior Zhou Yuqing also followed this kind of path."

Liang Yi skimmed through the White Tiger Seven Kills Technique. Some parts could be used for reference, but to expend experience to cultivate it wasn't worth it.

Creating a cultivation technique from scratch that perfectly matches one's own power conception indeed enables a cultivator to utilize their strength to the fullest. Unfortunately, one has to navigate the future path of such technique by themselves, and one wrong move could lead to total loss, making the risk incredibly high.

"Keep it as a last-ditch treasure for the players."

Liang Yi casually put away the White Tiger Seven Kills Technique. Although he didn't value it, it was indeed treasured by players. Throwing it into the sect's exchange list and he wouldn't believe if players wouldn't go crazy for it.

After all, who doesn't like a technique that's both cool and powerful?

"And there's also this mass of World Origin..."

Liang Yi helplessly looked at the World Origin he had acquired. Not knowing what to say.

This time, thanks to their combined effort, the World Origin was divided into five parts, and each of them got a share.

And perhaps due to some special reason related to the White Tiger Envoy, the World Origin that fell from his body was initially very generous.

"Why does this distribution method feel so familiar?"

Holding the World Origin that was of no use to him, Liang Yi suddenly thought of the feeling of a team in his previous life gaming and defeating a BOSS.

When a BOSS is defeated, every player who participated in the fight gets a share of the experience and loot rights.

"I don't get it..."

Although he always felt there might be some connection between the two, Liang Yi thought it over and over and couldn't figure it out, so he could only shake his head and temporarily give up, confident that as long as he diligently cultivated, one day in the future he would come to understand the truth of the world.

"The first phase of the task is completed, a rich harvest of both experience and techniques, and the hierarchy of the Devouring Spirit Sect is almost leaderless now, greatly reducing the risks for Wan Tinggui and the others in the Abyss."

Liang Yi played with the White Tiger in his hands, which resembled a young kitten, while thinking about the implications of killing the White Tiger Envoy.

"Using Wan Tinggui's people as a nail driven into the Abyss might have an unexpected effect at some critical moment. Now with the release of the White Tiger Authority, this might add another top combatant to our side."

According to the information from Wan Tinggui, Tian Anyu was mostly preoccupied with seeking a breakthrough, attempting to ascend to a higher level with the countless resources of the Abyss, basically having no time to deal with the Devouring Spirit Sect.

For the ambitious Tian Anyu, the Ninth Realm could not be his end, because he knew there were stronger beings and new realms above that.

But the biggest difference between the Abyss and Mystical Mechanism Continent was that the Abyss would never allow a cultivator they couldn't control to exist, the Great Perfection of the Ninth Realm was already the limit.

To break through the Ninth Realm and reach the Tenth Realm and get out of his control was utterly unacceptable.

On Mystical Mechanism Continent, there was no such restriction; as long as you roll far enough away during the breakthrough, don't use him as a shield, there would be no problem.

It's like what happened with Senior Qinglian; trying to secretly break through within Mystical Mechanism Continent would alarm its Heavenly Dao.

"Aroo~"

A very weak and tender sound pulled Liang Yi's thoughts back to the present.
