Chapter 1132: Chapter 1132: We sisters advance and retreat together!

Yang Ruojun’s word within the Xuannv Sect was absolute—once she spoke, there was no possibility of change.

That meant, regardless of whether Linghu Baimei and Linghu Qian Jiao were willing, they had no choice but to follow Elder Qiu Heming and the Feng brothers to Swiftwind Valley.

Linghu Qian Jiao and Linghu Baimei exchanged a look, both with a bitter smile on their lips.

The two sisters had agreed to a one-year deadline with the Feng brothers to search for Fang Bai, merely to buy time because they knew that Swiftwind Valley would not put their heart and soul into searching for Fang Bai. They planned to use this year to further enhance their own strength and then look for an opportunity to leave the Xuannv Sect to search for Fang Bai on their own.

The indifferent attitude of their former master, Linghu Hongyan, had left the sisters feeling abandoned, disheartened, and bereft of support. In this world, the only person they felt they could rely on was Fang Bai.

However, now Elder Qiu Heming of Swiftwind Valley had proposed for the sisters to reside in Swiftwind Valley, and Sect Master Yang Ruojun agreed without hesitation, causing deep anxiety for the Linghu sisters.

As a second-grade Sect, Swiftwind Valley possessed more than a dozen Cosmic Level Experts and thousands of Vast Level Experts, its overall strength could be described as terrifying. If the sisters entered Swiftwind Valley, it would be like entering a dragon’s den or a tiger’s lair. It would be incredibly difficult to escape, and Fang Bai would be taking a great risk if he tried to rescue them after learning of their situation.

"Haha, Sect Master Yang is indeed forthright! Well then, we won’t stand on ceremony!"

Seeing Yang Ruojun agree to let the Linghu sisters accompany them back to Swiftwind Valley, a smile finally appeared on Qiu Heming’s face, and he gestured to the Feng brothers, "Shijun, Shijie, take these two young ladies, and let’s return to Swiftwind Valley!"

The Feng brothers thought that with the Linghu sisters residing in Swiftwind Valley, they would be able to see them all the time, which made them very excited.

Feng Shijun lightly shook his folding fan, smiling joyfully as he approached the cool-faced Linghu Qian Jiao and said, "Sister Qian Jiao, shall we go? In Swiftwind Valley, Spiritual Medicine is abundant, and the Heaven and Earth Origin Energy is rich—it is a rare cultivation paradise. I guarantee once you are there, you will never want to return! In the future, when we become Martial Dao partners and cultivate together, we will surely advance rapidly on the path of Martial Dao!"

As he spoke, a greedy look crossed his face, and he folded his fan, reaching out to take Linghu Qian Jiao’s hand.

"Get lost!"

Linghu Qian Jiao’s beautiful eyes turned frosty as she gave Feng Shijun a cold glance, then walked slowly to face Yang Ruojun, looking straight into her eyes which hinted at anger, and calmly asked, "Sect Master, we sisters are humans, not objects! With a single word from you, you have dispatched us both; have you ever consulted with us? Asked if we agree? Considered our feelings?"

Her demeanor, tone, and expressions while speaking showed none of the respect that a disciple typically displayed before a Sect Leader, causing many high-ranking members of the Xuannv Sect to feel nervous for her.

In fact, several of the Xuannv Sect’s high-ranking members were quite fond of the Linghu sisters, believing they could shoulder great responsibilities in the future. They privately disagreed with the Sect Leader’s decision to agree to a marital alliance between the Linghu sisters and the disciples of Swiftwind Valley.

But with Yang Ruojun holding the position of Sect Leader and possessing formidable strength, as well as being very assertive, those high-ranking members had complaints but dared not oppose her decision.

Yet, no one expected Linghu Qian Jiao to be so bold as to question Yang Ruojun publicly. Given Yang Ruojun’s temper, she might very well strike down Linghu Qian Jiao on the spot in a fit of rage to maintain her authority as Sect Leader.

"The interests of the Sect take precedence over everything. As disciples of the Sect, even death should not bring complaints, let alone an arranged marriage. Swiftwind Valley is a grand second-grade Sect of the current age, and marriage with its disciples is a great fortune for you two. Do not be ungrateful!"

Yang Ruojun said, with an impassive face.

Yang Ruojun was indeed very angry with Linghu Qian Jiao for her questioning, but since she had already agreed to let Elder Qiu and the others take the sisters away, she held back due to some reservations, and did not attack.

"Fortune? Heh... we don’t care for it!"

Linghu Qian Jiao’s lips curled with a hint of mockery as she continued coldly, "If you want us to enter into a marriage, you might as well kill us!"

Yang Ruojun was taken aback, and frowned, "Would you rather die than agree to marry?"

Linghu Qianjiao nodded.

"You?"

Sect Master Yang turned towards Linghu Baimei.

Linghu Baimei walked up to Linghu Qianjiao’s side, flashed a charming smile, and said, "We sisters shall rise or fall together!"

The two sisters exchanged a smile, their eyes revealing a decisive resolve.

"How preposterous! How utterly preposterous!"

Off to the side, Feng Shijie ranted in a fit of rage, "Just now in Reflection Valley, we spoke in good terms, how could you two go back on your word now?"

Linghu Baimei said, "What we discussed did not involve us going to Swiftwind Valley."

Feng Shijun said, "Once at Swiftwind Valley, we can just as well help you find that Fang Bai."

Linghu Baimei curled her lip and said, "But we would rather stay in Reflection Valley."

Feng Shijun retorted irritably, "There’s no trace of Heaven and Earth Origin Energy in Reflection Valley. What’s the point of staying there? Have you two gone mad?"

"They aren’t mad."

Qiu Heming looked at Linghu Qianjiao and Linghu Baimei with a piercing gaze, a sneer on his face as if he had foreseen everything, "They never intended to become Martial Dao companions with you two brothers from the start. All this talk about helping you find someone, the one-year deadline... Heh, it was nothing but a ruse to fool you! And you actually believed it?"

The brothers Feng Shijun and Feng Shijie looked at each other with anger showing on their faces.

Feng Shijie’s gaze shifted to Linghu Baimei, and he advanced towards her step by step, his voice menacing, "Is what Elder Qiu said true? Were all those words earlier nothing but lies to deceive us?"

His anger boiling over, his killing intent surging, every step he took applied more pressure on Linghu Baimei.

"That’s right!"

By that point, Linghu Baimei had thrown caution to the wind. Unfazed by the approaching Feng Shijie, she regarded him with disdainful eyes and a look of contempt, scoffing, "You two think you can become Martial Dao companions with us sisters? In your dreams!"

"You’re asking for death!"

Enraged, Feng Shijie charged forward, his left hand shooting out to grasp Linghu Baimei’s delicate neck and hoisting her into the air.

Although Linghu Baimei’s true strength was enough to contend with early Vast Level experts, she was still far outmatched by Feng Shijie, and under his surprise attack, she was left utterly defenseless.

"Baimei!"

Seeing her sister in peril, Linghu Qianjiao cried out in alarm and attempted to strike at Feng Shijie.

Before she could make a move, a torrential surge swept through, blasting her several meters away and almost smashing her into a pillar within the hall.
