That Mangfu, Guimei, and Yin Qiu were seriously injured and had their energy channels sealed, collapsing on the ground was understandable, but kneeling on the ground was incomprehensible.
Zhao Doudou looked completely bewildered.
The three brothers had been hung up, their eyes showing such determination that he’d identified them as pure men like Dai Lü. Who would have thought they’d become cowardly so quickly!
Or was it… that the girl who entered was very formidable?
Zhao Doudou secretly glanced over and found that although Yao Mengying was very cute, there was nothing particularly special about her. He couldn’t help thinking to himself, “Could it be these three brothers were moved by what I said and decided that rather than hold out to the end, they should directly surrender?”
“Could it be because the little girl has the Innate Demon Body and can invisibly suppress demonic cultivators?” Jun Changxiao speculated.
Yao Mengying walked over, her hands behind her back, standing before the three kneeling men like a supreme sovereign. “Who gave you the courage to come cause trouble at my Eternal Sect?”
“Little Junior Sister has great presence.” Li Fei thought to himself.
Mangfu, Guimei, and Yin Qiu didn’t dare raise their heads, kneeling on the ground trembling.
Yao Mengying hadn’t released her cultivation, but the supreme majesty emanating from around her body that only they could sense pressed down on them so they didn’t even dare breathe heavily.
“Speak!”
“Thump! Thump!”
Mangfu and the other two were so frightened they directly collapsed flat on the ground.
“…”
Zhao Doudou’s mouth twitched.
This girl’s voice was clearly very sweet—how could it scare them into such a state?
“Girl.”
Jun Changxiao transmitted his voice. “First ask them about their identities.”
“Mm.”
Yao Mengying said coldly, “Who are you? What sect or faction do you come from?”
Mangfu, Guimei, and Yin Qiu were engaged in intense internal struggle, but the fear coming from the depths of their souls forced their thoughts to open their mouths uncontrollably and say in unison, “We… we’re from the Demon Emperor Gate.”
“Where is the Demon Emperor Gate located?”
“At… at… the Dark Crow Mountain Range…”
The three desperately wanted to keep their mouths shut, but with their hearts constantly shrouded by supreme pressure, they could only choose to confess.
“Dark Crow Mountain Range?”
Jun Changxiao thought to himself, “One of the three great forbidden lands?”
There were many forbidden lands on the Star Meteorite Continent, with three being the most terrifying. The Dark Crow Mountain Range was one of them.
The Dark Crow Mountain Range was the continent’s most extensive mountain chain, spanning multiple great provinces. Inside it was pitch dark, filled with fierce beasts, and even had miasma that blocked spiritual sense. Even Martial Emperors would become lost if they entered.
“The specific location.” Yao Mengying said.
“The… the sect has a Star-Shifting Great Formation reinforcing it. Every so often it automatically transfers. The… the specific location we also cannot determine…” Guimei’s voice trembled.
“Holy shit?”
Jun Changxiao thought to himself, “That impressive?”
The sect reinforced with formations, able to take a trip-as-you-please journey anytime, anywhere—that was way too carefree.
“With your current cultivation levels, achieving them was quite difficult. My sect master, mindful of heaven’s virtue to preserve life, asks whether you will submit to him?” Yao Mengying said.
Jun Changxiao was startled.
The previous questioning was at his instruction, but this sentence he hadn’t said.
The little girl now had quite good awareness.
Not bad, not bad!
Mangfu and Guimei’s faces became twisted, their hearts engaged in intense struggle, clearly extremely resistant to submitting to Jun Changxiao!
“Answer me!”
A trace of eerie light flashed in Yao Mengying’s eyes. Her entire being seemed to transform into the great hero from ten thousand years ago who dared to contend with heaven and earth, dared to compete with the sun and moon!
Mangfu and the other two were so frightened they prostrated with all fours on the ground, every hair standing on end.
This girl’s aura was too terrifying, giving them the feeling of being in the presence of a supreme king on a mountaintop!
After experiencing the Demon Man Valley, Yao Mengying had already begun to possess the bearing of a Demon Emperor. Three pure demonic cultivators would naturally feel fear upon seeing her.
“We… we submit!”
“Hand over your soul essence.”
…
When Jun Changxiao held the soul essence in his hands, the expression on his face showed some surprise, because he hadn’t expected the three would become cowardly so quickly and so thoroughly!
Of course.
He also realized that Yao Mengying would have such miraculous effects when dealing with demonic cultivators!
“If I’d known this, I should have had her go to West Yun Province to find the Demon Emperor Gate, then directly recruit this force.” Jun Changxiao thought to himself.
“Sect Master.”
Yao Mengying smiled. “There’s still one woman locked in the prison. Your disciple will go convince her.”
“Go ahead.” Jun Changxiao said.
He didn’t leave the prison, looking at Dai Lü who was facing the wall in meditation. “Kid, have you thought it through?”
“…” Dai Lü remained silent.
Even though three demonic cultivators had surrendered in front of him, his heart to never join the Eternal Sect remained unshaken in the slightest.
Various protagonist-fated individuals here were repeatedly enacting the law of true fragrance, but only Brother Green Turban still firmly defended the spirit of iron bones and integrity.
“Sect Master Jun!”
Zhao Doudou cried out, “I want to join the Eternal Sect!”
He had said this sentence many times, each time receiving no response.
This time, Jun Changxiao said, “You’ve become so experienced at being in prison, you’re also a talent. Just stay here and counsel the prisoners.”
“Notify the dining hall to deliver three meals a day on time. Don’t let him go hungry.”
“Yes!”
“Take these three to Medicine Peak and hand them over to Sun Bukong for treatment.”
“Yes!”
“Creak!”
The prison door closed again.
Zhao Doudou, shrinking in the corner, looked dazed. He hadn’t become distressed over losing three cellmates, but rather after a moment, began dancing and laughing loudly.
Before it was one meal a day, now it was three meals a day.
Happiness!
“Stay here and counsel prisoners properly?”
Recalling what Jun Changxiao said before leaving, Zhao Doudou gradually calmed down. “Is this showing regard for me?”
“Sect Master Jun!” He stood up, his gaze firm. “I definitely won’t disappoint you. I’ll definitely counsel the prisoners well!”
“Baldy.”
Zhao Doudou appeared before Dai Lü and earnestly advised, “Sect Master Jun has been very benevolent toward you. As a person, you must know gratitude. Stop being stubborn and quickly pledge loyalty to the Eternal Sect.”
“Life is like a cup of tea. It won’t be bitter for a lifetime, but it will always be bitter for a while. As long as you maintain a good mindset, as long as your heart and thoughts don’t fade, no matter how far the road, you’ll eventually reach bitter’s end and sweet’s beginning!”
Ding!
Chicken Soup for the Soul mentor Zhao Doudou is now online.
…
Yao Mengying had her own methods for dealing with demonic cultivators. Shortly after entering the women’s prison, she brought Ying’s soul essence to the great hall. “Sect Master, that woman has submitted.”
“Amazing!”
Jun Changxiao gave a thumbs up.
Without Yao Mengying’s Innate Demon Body, relying solely on torture and interrogation, it would probably be very difficult to make the four demonic cultivators yield.
“By the way, girl.”
Jun Changxiao said, “The Demon Emperor Gate’s sect master has an Innate Demon Body. What do you think?”
Yao Mengying said with a certain tone, “Only your disciple inherited the Innate Demon Body. There won’t be a second one in the world.”
Jun Changxiao stroked his chin. “If that’s the case, this Demon Emperor Gate is deliberately lying to the outside world that they have an Innate Demon Body, then attracting demonic cultivators from across the realm to come pledge loyalty.”
“Sect Master.”
Yao Mengying said, “If you go to the Dark Crow Mountain Range, please bring your disciple along.”
She was very curious about who had such audacity to impersonate the Innate Demon Body that only she possessed.
“Mm.”
Jun Changxiao nodded.
Suddenly, the system notification sounded in his ear.
“Ding! Sect members: 50000/50000.”
“Ding! Sect mission opened.”
In the Mission Pavilion, brand new sect missions appeared, representing that once the disciples completed them all, the construction level could be upgraded.
“Hall Master Li.”
Jun Changxiao transmitted his voice. “Notify the Certification Hall to send people to certify the sect’s level.”
