Chapter 1238: Chapter 1238 Trace of the Demonic Path

"No... no... impossible..."

Her throat was clutched by Su Chengyu, yet Bei Tang Qi Meng still couldn’t believe everything before her eyes.

It had only been about a year, so why had the Loose Cultivator from Longjiang far surpassed her own realm?

"Who... who are you really?"

Although Bei Tang Qi Meng had located Su Chengyu, she hadn’t conducted thorough investigations at that time. After being defeated by Yu Feng of the Ancient Clan, she returned to the north of Wei to avoid further troubles, truly unaware of Su Chengyu’s identity and name.

However, right now, Bei Tang Qi Meng was not exactly asking that; she just couldn’t believe that the man before her was the same individual she had encountered that day.

"Su Chengyu, that’s enough,"

Bei Tang Qian Xiao, standing to the side, spoke with some worry.

She had guessed that a conflict was inevitable upon their meeting, but considering Bei Tang Qi Meng’s past actions, Bei Tang Qian Xiao didn’t have much to say.

As long as Su Chengyu didn’t kill Bei Tang Qi Meng outright, in Bei Tang Qian Xiao’s view, it was acceptable.

This was not only due to Bei Tang Qian Xiao’s personal feelings, but it was also true for the Bei Tang Family as a whole.

This was precisely why Bei Tang Ru Meng had not made any moves until now.

Su Chengyu gave Bei Tang Qi Meng a cold look, "You’re really lucky to be born into the Bei Tang Family, having others to protect you against opponents you cannot defeat. Otherwise, you would have been dead a long time ago."

Bei Tang Qi Meng looked at Su Chengyu and, still defiant, scoffed, "So what if you are a Nascent Soul? Do you really dare to kill me here?"

"Bei Tang Qi Meng, enough!"

Bei Tang Qian Xiao spoke urgently. She knew Su Chengyu well, knowing he was someone who could be swayed with gentleness rather than hardness. Bei Tang Qi Meng’s words would have no effect other than to further infuriate Su Chengyu.

Sure enough, Su Chengyu’s grip tightened instantly as he narrowed his eyes and said, "If I dare to kill Long Li, who do you think you are?"

Bei Tang Qi Meng was taken aback upon hearing this name. Her mind immediately connected the man before her with the name she had just heard the night before, and she finally realized Su Chengyu’s identity.

The previous arrogance instantly vanished, and she looked at Su Chengyu again, her eyes filled with nothing but terror.

"Auntie... Auntie, save me..."

Bei Tang Ru Meng, who had been watching all this with a detached gaze, paused her eyes on the other party for a moment before finally looking at Su Chengyu and saying, "Young Master Su, for my sake, could you spare her life?"

After discussing the matter between them, Bei Tang Qian Xiao had informed Bei Tang Ru Meng of Bei Tang Qi Meng’s past grievances with Su Chengyu, so Bei Tang Ru Meng knew that Bei Tang Qi Meng was at fault here, which was why she had allowed Su Chengyu to take action.

But if Su Chengyu really started killing, as an elder of the Bei Tang Family, she couldn’t just stand by and watch.

"When she wanted to kill me back then, did she ever think of giving me a way out?"

Su Chengyu’s cold words made Bei Tang Qi Meng feel as if she had fallen into an ice pit.

She believed that Bei Tang Ru Meng could suppress Su Chengyu if she intervened, but she feared that the madman before her might just act recklessly and kill her first, considering her life was currently in his hands.

"Rest assured, Young Master Su, the Bei Tang family will definitely give you a proper explanation for this matter."

Bei Tang Ru Meng spoke, then looking at Bei Tang Qi Meng with narrowed eyes, she added, "Besides, I also have some questions for her, and it would be troublesome for me if she died now."

Su Chengyu, somewhat surprised, turned to look at Bei Tang Ru Meng and asked, "Elder, did you figure something out?"

Upon hearing these words, Bei Tang Ru Meng was similarly surprised, but soon he spoke, "If young master Su can perceive it, I’m certainly not so old as to have dimmed vision."

At these words, Su Chengyu’s murderous intent gradually began to subside, and he grabbed Bei Tang Qi Meng and threw her forcefully beside Bei Tang Ru Meng.

Landing awkwardly on the ground, Bei Tang Ru Meng struggled over to Bei Tang Ru Meng and said, "Aunt, you must stand up for me, this man..."

"Shut up! Even if young master Su had not taken action today, I would have held you accountable myself. Behave yourself and stay with the team; I’ll handle your affairs after the Demon Subjugation Conference is over."

Bei Tang Qi Meng, startled, then looking somewhat panicky, rose to her feet, dusted herself off, and mingled into the crowd.

Noticing the reaction of the two, Bei Tang Qian Xiao found it strange and, recalling the earlier conversation between Bei Tang Ru Meng and Su Chengyu, softly asked, "Elder, what happened?"

Bei Tang Ru Meng’s expression was impassive as he spoke softly, "Bei Tang Ru Meng is no longer a virgin."

"What?"

Bei Tang Qian Xiao paused for a moment, then glanced at a distant Bei Tang Qi Meng and asked, "Was it last night?"

"It seems so. She probably found someone in Capital City to utilize the Dual Cultivation Method to break through the Golden Core bottleneck."

Bei Tang Qian Xiao fell silent. The Beitang Family’s family rules were not especially strict, but for a direct descendant to intermarry outside the family was never a small matter.

"She was probably just confused momentarily; Su Chengyu’s intervention could be seen as a lesson for her."

"You think it’s just that?"

Bei Tang Qi Meng scoffed, glanced at Bei Tang Qi Meng, and said, "This girl probably doesn’t even know; the technique used was not proper Dual Cultivation but purely the Yin Yang Replenishing Technique!"

"Techniques of Demon Path?"

Bei Tang Qian Xiao exclaimed instinctively, and a look from Bei Tang Ru Meng immediately silenced Bei Tang Qian Xiao.

There are many Dual Cultivation Methods in the world, but they generally emphasize Yin-Yang balance so that both parties can achieve a Taiji complementary state.

However, those Dual Cultivation Techniques that benefit only one party, while the other serves merely as a cauldron, are classified as Demonic Cultivation Techniques.

Since the Demonic Path vanished from sight, these malignant techniques also disappeared from public view, so it was normal for Bei Tang Qian Xiao to be unaware.

But Bei Tang Ru Meng, having lived through the great war a century ago, realized something was off with Bei Tang Qi Meng the moment she appeared.

Whether Bei Tang Qi Meng knew or not, engaging with Demonic Dual Cultivation could potentially brand the Beitang family as conspirators with the Demonic Path once word got out.

Do not forget, the great noble families and the Nine Ancient Tribes gathered here are all aiming at the Demonic Path.

"The moment Qi Meng appeared, I sensed something was wrong. When she fought with the Su family’s boy, I was certain of it," Bei Tang Ru Meng said, his eyebrows tightly furrowed.

Consorting with the Demonic Path was a crime punishable by death; however, considering the Demonic Path might have infiltrated Capital City with them, Bei Tang Qi Meng was an important clue and indeed could not die.

Bei Tang Qian Xiao took a deep breath, not daring to discuss further for fear of eavesdroppers, and changed the subject.

"Did Su Chengyu also notice this?"

"Yes, but the young man is clever and knows the gravity of the matter, so he did not reveal it directly. Otherwise, even before the Demon Subjugation Conference could start, our Beitang family might have already become the target of all."
