Chapter 309: Chapter 308 Who Comes Here to Do Evil

The Lin Family’s movements were quite subtle, but they couldn’t escape the attention of those with vested interests.

The news first reached the Tianxu Sect’s Danfeng.

The Lin Family was selecting a future Dao companion for Lin Wangchen, and they soon made a decision.

"The Lin Family is going to propose an engagement to the Xie Family in Yunmu City?"

When Mo Chuan heard this news, his brow furrowed slightly. "Do you know who the engagement is with?"

"It’s unclear, but it’s said that the one going to propose is the old ancestor of the Lin Family."

Employing a Divinity Transformation to propose marriage meant they were either harboring malicious intentions or they valued this marriage greatly.

To outsiders, the Xie Family of Yunmu City was a minor family of no consequence. Not to mention the former glory of the Xie Family and how many families in the Cultivation World owed favors to the Xie Family, as of now, the Xie Family didn’t have a Divinity Transformation.

But the descendants of the Xie Family were remarkable.

Three outstanding juniors had emerged: one was a disciple of True Lord Chongzhen, another a disciple under Lord Ziyang, one under Lord Chaoyan, and one had a Divinity Transformation Master Qiansha and even a Sect Master from the Tianxu Sect as his mentor. In addition, he was the Young Master of the Demon Emperor’s Palace, having the Demon Emperor’s Palace as a backing.

Even though there were rumors that Xie Jiuniang was somewhat detached from the family.

But there was also a saying that if the family was in trouble, she would intervene.

Most importantly, Xie Jiuniang was the Child of Destiny.

After some thought, Mo Chuan decided to do Xie Jiuniang a favor, "Discreetly pass this information to Zhengyang Peak."

"Uh, the other party may not acknowledge your favor."

"Whether she acknowledges the favor is her business, just pass the message on."

"Yes, Young Master."

This person was Mo Chuan’s confidant and also a disciple of Danfeng.

It wasn’t long before the message reached Bai Mudan, who immediately relayed the news to Xie Jiuniang. However, the messenger did not reveal who was behind the communication.

Xie Jiuniang’s face turned ashen, "Who gave you this message?"

Bowing her head, Bai Mudan replied, "A disciple from Danfeng."

Who from Danfeng would send her a message?

After pondering for a while, Xie Jiuniang thought of Xing Luan and her master. The only ones from Danfeng who had dealings with her were this master and disciple. However, since the last time she returned to the sect, Xing Luan had been in seclusion, and they had not met.

And the favor Xing Luan’s master owed had also been repaid.

The secretive nature of the message didn’t seem like Xing Luan’s style.

In the end, Xie Jiuniang thought of Mo Chuan.

There was no urgent need to investigate this matter.

Did the Lin Family intend to follow the path of the previous life, wishing to have her marry Lin Wangchen once again?

"The Lin Family shouldn’t be so brainless..."

What worked in her previous life might not work in this one.

Xie Jiuniang’s identity was now different from before.

She was someone backed by a Divinity Transformation Master and a Grandmaster; the Xie Family simply couldn’t call the shots for her. Her previous life was different; she had no master and relied on her family, with only average aptitude. Her family made decisions for her, and she had no power to refuse.

In this life, she had already distanced herself from the family.

This matter was not a secret, and the Lin Family must have known.

Then, whom should the Lin Family be proposing to?

Xie Jiuniang turned to Bai Mudan, "Send a message to your brother, get him to contact Old He, and ask him about the situation in Yunmu City. Also, investigate who the Lin Family in Yaoguang City wants to propose to."

"Yes, I’ll take care of it right away."

Bai Mudan turned and hurried off.

The pressure from Xie Jiuniang was becoming increasingly intense.

Jian Lingyan held Little Fatty as they shakily retreated a good distance away.

This made Xie Jiuniang notice Broken Sword, "Little Jianjian, was the Heaven and Earth Reversal Technique of Tianji Building not completely destroyed?"

"It was destroyed though," Jian Lingyan knew about this.

Xie Jiuniang had indeed seen it destroyed, "But it seems that the Lin Family still retained it. How the master of Tianji Building obtained the Reversal Technique is unknown; it’s possible that it was provided by the Lin Family."

When it came to her enemies, Xie Jiuniang didn’t mind suspecting them with ill intentions.

The Lin Family was as repulsive as ever.

She reactivated the formation of her dwelling.

Xie Jiuniang removed the Time Leaf and stared at it gloomily, "Time Leaf, how come you’ve gotten fatter again after such a short time since I last paid attention to you?"

Time Leaf, "..."

That cheap sword wasn’t wrong, the master is indeed a dog.

Xie Jiuniang wasn’t expecting the Time Leaf to respond, she channeled spiritual power to activate foresight—

[Invisible, leave Zhengyang Peak, then sneak into Fafeng.

Arriving at Lin Wangchen’s cave abode, throw out Little Fatty to infiltrate the cave, deploy the sleeping drug, then shut the formation, Xie Jiuniang swaggeringly goes in, and activates the formation again.

Looking at the unconscious Lin Wangchen.

Xie Jiuniang gives a thorough beating, all sorts of beatings.

She applies all eighteen kinds of cruel punishments known in the Mortal Realm to him, followed by a bout of dismemberment execution. Just when she’s excitedly slicing him up, she accidentally activates a Jade Token on Lin Wangchen’s body.

"Who dares to commit evil here?"

A furious shout, buzzing in Xie Jiuniang’s ears, leading to a successful deafening...]

She exited the foresight!

Xie Jiuniang cleaned out her ears, the repressed malice in her heart somewhat alleviated.

Can’t really beat him? Just give him a thrashing in foresight first.

The activation of the Time Leaf foresight didn’t last long, so the spiritual power that Xie Jiuniang consumed was minimal.

She channeled spiritual power again.

The direction of foresight was based on what she had in mind before entering foresight; otherwise, every foresight would not be different. This time, Xie Jiuniang wanted to leave the Sect to test if a Divinity Transformation from the Ao Family leaving the Eastern Region would impact the family clans’ layout.

Retreating is hardly possible.

Those people have exerted great effort to lay down an earth-shattering kill formation.

How could it simply fail midway?

[Xie Jiuniang leaves the Sect openly, exits Xi’an City, gets followed, and two days later, encounters two masked Divinity Transformations attempting an assassination. Four great Demon Guards intercept.

The Demon Guards transform into their beast shapes, battling one of the masked Divinity Transformations.

The other one attempts to kill Xie Jiuniang.

Xie Jiuniang crushes a Jade Talisman for help, then retreats into the Small Tortoise Shell.

Qiansha arrives in time, fighting with the masked Divinity Transformation.

The fierce battle attracts Divinity Transformation masters from the Sect, the two attacking Divinity Transformations flee...]

The foresight ends.

Just by briefly using foresight like this, she knows the kill formation set against her outside the Sect is yet to be broken.

These people are drawing ever closer to the Sect.

Xie Jiuniang wonders if in some time, the opponents might attempt an assassination within the Sect itself?

She didn’t make another prediction and began to meditate and regulate her breath.

The skies outside gradually dimmed, and occasionally the chirping of insects could be heard.

Xie Jiuniang invisibly sat upon Broken Sword, stealthily arriving at Fafeng without a sound.

Having lived here for over a hundred years in her past life, even though she hadn’t visited this life, she still knew her way around and found Lin Wangchen’s secluded cave abode.

Naturally, Fafeng was home to mighty practitioners.

But with the effects of the Hiding Jade Talisman combined with an Invisibility Talisman, it was too effective. As long as she didn’t recklessly use spiritual power, the Invisibility Talisman’s effect would not be lost.

Whether there was someone inside was confirmed by Jian Lingyan.

Xie Jiuniang then communicated with Little Fatty, "Can you handle the formation of this cave abode?"

"Handle, handle handle."

Little Fatty waved his hand.

Those big gleaming eyes looked so innocent.

But Xie Jiuniang understood him, that meant he could handle it, then she handed him a bottle of powdered medicine, "Just like last time, you know how?"

"Know know," nodded Little Fatty.

"Good boy, go do it."

This was just like a big grey wolf coaxing a little lamb.
