Chapter 29: Witch and Fairy

"Not here."

The fiery witch felt a bit annoyed. Where on earth did that damn lucky person run off to?

The precious treasure of the Canghai Sect was lost and stolen by an inner disciple. Despite the Canghai Sect's full efforts to retrieve it, the news had long spread throughout the Great Qian Dynasty.

The Yin Yang Sect was adjacent to the Great Qian Dynasty and not far from Qingzhou. This news had also reached them, and many people had their own thoughts.

As one of the eight major forces in the Xuan Domain, the Yin Yang Sect also coveted the Soul Refining Furnace. However, they had been hesitant to seize it due to their fear of the Great Qian Dynasty. But now, an opportunity had arisen.

After analyzing the intelligence, the Yin Yang Sect discovered that the lucky person's escape destination was within their territory. As a result, the higher-ups issued corresponding tasks.

Numerous disciples of the Yin Yang Sect accepted the tasks and went to the border to lie in wait, hoping to catch the lucky person by chance. Whoever had the good fortune to encounter them would claim the Soul Refining Furnace.

The lucky person's entry into the Yin Yang Sect's territory had nothing to do with the sect itself, nor did they intend to offer the precious treasure to the Yin Yang Sect. They simply wanted to take advantage of the situation to evade pursuit.

The Yin Yang Sect was a demonic sect that acted according to their own desires, using any means necessary. Even if the lucky person truly wanted to offer the treasure and receive the Yin Yang Sect's great cultivation support, many disciples of the Yin Yang Sect would still resort to killing to obtain it.

The Yin Yang Sect only needed the Soul Refining Furnace and didn't care who possessed it.

After waiting for half a year, the numerous disciples of the Yin Yang Sect hadn't even caught a glimpse of the lucky person, let alone any trace of them.

Half a year ago, there was intelligence suggesting that someone resembling the lucky person had appeared in the Fengshui Mansion. According to reason, they should have escaped to the Yin Yang Sect's territory within three months, considering the powerful pursuers from the Canghai Sect behind them.

But they still hadn't arrived. Some people believed that the lucky person was hiding elsewhere in Leizhou and wouldn't come to the Yin Yang Sect. They might have been secretly captured by the Canghai Sect and taken back. As a result, they withdrew.

Some people continued to wait, believing that the lucky person would eventually come over to the Yin Yang Sect. Hiding in Leizhou was useless; the Canghai Sect would turn Leizhou upside down.

Finally, some people took a more radical approach and were willing to take the risk of infiltrating Leizhou. They secretly searched for the whereabouts of the treasure. The fiery witch was one of them.

"Damn it!" The fiery witch muttered under her breath.

After infiltrating Leizhou, she immediately began her search. She searched from the border all the way to the Fengshui Mansion, thoroughly searching the entire mansion, only to discover that the person carrying the treasure had long entered the Fengyang Mansion.

She returned to the Fengyang Mansion and searched in secret. She had already found several clues, and this place under her feet was the last clue, but it abruptly ended.

She didn't know if the person had been killed and the treasure taken, or if they had gone deeper into hiding to evade pursuit.

During her search, she also discovered that many others were doing the same thing as her, which made the fiery witch even more frustrated. Could it be that someone had already beaten her to it?

She didn't dare to search openly. After all, she was a witch of the Yin Yang Sect. If her identity was exposed, it would definitely attract the official suppression of Leizhou.

With her cultivation at the early stage of the Soul Refining Realm, it was almost impossible for her to escape back to the Yin Yang Sect. But she couldn't just give up like this. She had put in so much effort and was unwilling to let it go to waste.

Just as the fiery witch was about to leave and continue her secret pursuit, a figure quickly flew over, alerting her.

"Jiang Baiye, why is she here?" The fiery witch's figure flashed and disappeared from her original position.

Three breaths later, a woman dressed in palace attire and a white dress descended, carrying a divine sword on her back.

She had a fair oval face, rosy and luscious lips, a straight and delicate nose, phoenix-like eyes filled with autumn water, exquisite and three-dimensional features, and flowing silver hair. She exuded an elegant and extraordinary aura, like a stunning female sword immortal walking out of a painting.

She was Jiang Baiye.

After landing, Jiang Baiye carefully surveyed the battlefield and finally stood where the fiery witch had been standing before, lost in thought.

"A Vital Spirit Realm cultivator, huh?" Jiang Baiye's red lips parted slightly, gaining some understanding of the situation on this battlefield.

Being able to kill a Sea Opening Realm late stage with a single palm strike, and almost simultaneously shoot and kill six Sea Opening Realm cultivators, this level of strength is definitely at the Vital Spirit Realm.

From what she knows, Lu Renbin only had a cultivation level of Sea Opening Realm Ninth Layer when he stole the body-nourishing furnace, and his talent was only at the seventh grade. It's unlikely for him to advance so quickly. Could it be because of the body-nourishing furnace's effect?

After escaping to Fengyang Prefecture, someone discovered their whereabouts and wanted to kill them and take the treasure. Or perhaps these people just happened to encounter Lu Renbin by chance and failed to assassinate him, resulting in their own deaths?

But Lu Renbin is skilled in knife techniques, while these people were killed by palm techniques and archery.

If the cultivator who killed Lu Renbin is not at the Vital Spirit Realm, could Lu Renbin have been killed by this Vital Spirit Realm cultivator? There are no traces at the scene. Is it because the bodies were completely destroyed, or is it possible that Lu Renbin participated in the gathering of wandering cultivators and left without ever coming here?

Jiang Baiye feels that the latter possibility is more likely. If that Vital Spirit Realm cultivator is skilled in destroying bodies and leaving no traces, then there wouldn't be seven bodies left here.

Of course, it's also possible that this person did it intentionally to create a diversion.

Suddenly, the divine sword behind her, "Kengqiang," unsheathed itself and a sword qi swept across.

"Bang!"

A stone turned into powder and drifted away with the wind.

"Jiang Baiye, you're still so heartless. I just came to say hello, and you directly stab me with a sword."

As the voice sounded,

A girl dressed in black leather clothes, with a hot figure, appeared not far from Jiang Baiye, her face full of resentment, as if Jiang Baiye was an unfaithful person.

Before Jiang Baiye could speak, she continued, "Have you considered whether you want to come back with me to the Yin Yang Sect to cultivate? The Canghai Sect will only bury your talent. Besides, the Canghai Sect has even lost its town sect treasure, the body-nourishing furnace."

Jiang Baiye's face turned cold, and she said in a cold voice, "Yun Miaoyi, give up on this idea. I will find the body-nourishing furnace myself."

"And also, get out of the Daqian Empire!"

Yun Miaoyi didn't care and chuckled, "Tsk tsk, why are you protecting the Daqian Empire now? The Canghai Sect losing the body-nourishing furnace outside the Daqian Empire is definitely related."

Jiang Baiye pursed her lips and remained silent.

If it weren't for the Daqian Empire's interference, the body-nourishing furnace wouldn't have been lost, and Lu Renbin wouldn't have been able to escape from Qingzhou for so long.

While the Daqian Empire was interfering with the Canghai Sect, they were secretly searching for Lu Renbin, wanting to seize the body-nourishing furnace before anyone else.

For the Daqian Empire, they couldn't let the Canghai Sect find the body-nourishing furnace, and of course, they couldn't let Lu Renbin bring it into the Yin Yang Sect's territory. If it fell into the hands of the Yin Yang Sect, it would pose a greater threat than the Canghai Sect. The best choice would be for the body-nourishing furnace to fall into the hands of the imperial court.

"The Daqian Empire has treated your Canghai Sect like this. Don't you want to seek revenge?"

"Now there's an opportunity. As long as the Canghai Sect cooperates with our Yin Yang Sect, with internal and external collaboration, we can disrupt the Daqian Empire. By then, the Daqian Empire will be destroyed, and the Canghai Sect might even inherit the position of the Daqian Empire."

Yun Miaoyi tempted and secretly used her secret techniques to try to influence Jiang Baiye.

If Jiang Baiye is an immortal, then Yun Miaoyi is undoubtedly a witch.

Her appearance is extremely beautiful, with a melon seed face, a red dot on her forehead, and a pair of charming peach blossom eyes. Her fiery red lips and charming face exude a seductive charm with every frown and smile.

Coupled with her beautiful black hair and the hot figure under the black leather clothes, it makes people unable to forget.
