Chapter 673: Chapter 673: Demon Weapon Master

"Ancestor, looking at your vibrant complexion, it’s clear that only a master from the Tiger Ranking can be worth more than a hundred women combined,"

Gong Qiliang hurried forward and glanced at the corpse drained of all its True Yuan.

Indeed, a master from the Tiger Ranking could cause quite the stir.

"Alas, it’s still not enough. I’m barely able to restrain myself from taking Fairy Xifeng into my arms. I believe that she, having practiced the Cultivation Technique, would be a hundred times more nourishing than this old hag. If we can cultivate and delight together, it won’t be long before I return to my peak. And with the unity of yin and yang, those who once sought to annihilate my clan will surely pay with blood."

Nangong Haoqin pulled up his trousers, an obscene smile on his face.

She was a master from the Divine Ranking, naturally even more powerful.

"She has agreed to absorb the True Yuan of Lin Fan, who has become a vegetable tomorrow. The boy’s energy is certainly much stronger than Master Miejue’s. Why don’t you wait until she has taken Lin Fan, then make her yours? By then, you will have acquired an additional source of power!"

Gong Qiliang quickly recounted the situation.

Hearing the news about Lin Fan, Nangong Haoqin’s mouth curled into a greedy smile.

"Very good, very good indeed. You know how to strike a good deal. Then, after she succeeds tomorrow, we’ll lure her here. With just one success in dual cultivation, I shall emerge from seclusion. From then on, the Cultivation World will surely recognize the Nangong as supreme!"

Nangong Haoqin clenched his fist, his face alight with excitement.

He, who had lived in seclusion for many years, was finally about to see the light of day again.

"Ancestor, there is another matter I need to report to you."

Seeing Nangong Haoqin in good spirits, Gong Qiliang quickly lowered his voice, "This afternoon, a mysterious person came to our house, used the secret signal you taught us, and requested to see you in person. They said they were on a mission, and if they did not meet you, they would not speak to me."

"A mission? Whose orders are they following?"

Nangong Haoqin’s expression darkened, looking at Gong Qiliang with suspicion.

He then pulled out a token made of silver from his pocket.

"The Great Demon Master!"

Seeing the nine-headed beast carved on the token, Nangong Haoqin couldn’t contain his excitement.

This was the exclusive token of his master: "Bring that person to me immediately!"

"Yes!"

Gong Qiliang dared not delay and hurried out of the secret chamber.

Shortly after, he came back with a woman dressed in black.

The woman with the conical hat was missing her right arm.

But her slender figure and swift movements revealed that she was a master.

"Are you Nangong Haoqin?"

The woman lifted the veil on her conical hat, revealing a pair of blood-red eyes staring straight at Nangong Haoqin.

"Correct, what matter does the master have you come to me for?"

Nangong Haoqin greedily eyed the woman, noting the steady breath between her inhalations.

Her strength appeared to be no less than Fairy Xifeng’s.

For him, she was an exceptionally tempting supplement.

"The Great Demon Master orders you to collaborate with me in searching for dragon bones. I’ve already obtained the dragon bone from the Heavenly Cave Secret Realm. The remaining eight pieces are hidden in eight other underground cities,"

The woman had also noticed the gleam in Nangong Haoqin’s eyes but remained unfazed.

"But I was injured some days ago and require your assistance. Let’s set off right now,"

"I’m afraid I can’t leave right now!"

Nangong Haoqin squinted his eyes, a sly smile on his lips, "Since the last great battle, my meridians have been damaged and I can’t yet recover my power. I still need time to recuperate. However, since the messenger has already arrived, there’s no need to rush back. Stay and cultivate with me here, and once I’ve fully recovered, I’ll accompany you on your quest."

"Cultivate together?"

The woman slowly removed her hat, revealing a face that was half disfigured.

The horrific scars were like snakes coiled around, making one’s skin crawl.

"It seems that you want me to become the meat in your mouth, the meal in your belly,"

"There’s no need for such words, I merely wish to spar with you to improve our skills,"

however, the greed in Nangong Haoqin’s eyes persisted.

To him, the beauty or ugliness of someone’s face had no meaning.

What he desired was her vibrant True Yuan – if he could absorb it, he would be able to recover sooner.

"Oh, really? You want to spar, do you?"

The messenger snorted coldly, and with a flick of her right hand, the fighter’s hat shot towards him at high speed.

A fierce wind suddenly rose, and even Gong Qiliang to the side couldn’t handle it.

But Nangong Haoqin simply waved his hand and sent the hat flying away,

embedding it into the stone wall like a steel blade.

"The messenger’s cultivation is indeed remarkable, it’s just a pity that you’re still too green. Perhaps I should take a hand in ’instructing’ you!"

The next moment, Nangong Haoqin moved like a specter and had already appeared in front of the woman.

He reached out with both hands and firmly grabbed her shoulders.

Next, he intended to use the Evil Skill to plunder all her True Yuan.

"Boom!"

Unexpectedly, in the next instant, the woman’s face was covered with dark red runes.

Accompanied by a clump of black Demon Fire, the overwhelming power immediately filled the entire secret chamber.

Even Nangong Haoqin was forced back several steps by this tremendous force.

The hands that had just touched her were now bloody and mangled.

The excruciating pain made him break out in a cold sweat.

Nangong Haoqin, with a face full of shock, stared at the woman and said, "The Nine Nether Demon Fire... you’ve actually transformed yourself into a demon weapon!"

It is well known that a great demon master can connect to a certain space, extract its power, and infuse it into a weapon, thus giving rise to curse masters, who stand above the Onmyoji. Regular curse masters can only use specially made weapons as a medium to enhance their own power.

But the woman in front of him had broken through that limit and directly transformed herself into a demon weapon.

That meant she had completely demonized and become a walking demon blade.

"Now, do you still wish to spar with me?"

The woman’s blood-red eyes were fixed intently on Nangong Haoqin.

The towering black Demon Fire was enough to burn him to cinders.

"I dare not... I dare not, your ability as a messenger far exceeds mine... I am no match for you!"

Nangong Haoqin had survived decades of degradation, so his ability to endure was quite high.

In the face of such a powerful adversary, he immediately yielded.

"By noon the day after tomorrow, whether or not you have recovered your strength, you must set out on a journey with me, or I won’t hesitate to destroy you, this useless waste!"

The messenger slowly retracted all the black Demon Fire and pulled her fighter’s hat out of the stone wall with a hand,

then turned to walk towards the gate.

"Yes!"

Watching her graceful figure, Nangong Haoqin reluctantly agreed,

but inside, he was nurturing an even wilder idea.

"Old ancestor... Are you alright?"

Gong Qiliang, who had just ducked to a distant corner, now approached timidly.

The woman’s fierceness far exceeded his imagination.

"I’m fine!"

Nangong Haoqin waved his hand and said, "It seems I can’t avoid this mission, so tomorrow night I must absorb the True Yuan of Fairy Xifeng. Once my powerful skill is fully developed, this sort of trash won’t be able to escape. Tomorrow night, arrange for the Gong Family’s forces to help her and ensure she gets the boy’s True Yuan!"
