The next day…

“Well, last night, Mother sounded like she was in pain. Xiao Gu was scared, so I went to ask Elder Sun!”

Uh… You little guy, if you were not my child, I would really want to slap you to death! “Xiao Gu, who else did you tell about what happened last night?”

“Just the ninth elder. What’s wrong, mother? Do you want me to tell others?”

Damn, you want to tell others? Do you still want your mother to live?! “Xiao Gu, you are not allowed to tell anyone about this matter; do you understand?”

“Can’t I tell the other elders?”

“No.”

“Well, Mother, when are you and Father going to give me a brother or sister?”

“Xiao Gu, you can’t be anxious about a brother or sister. When Father and Mother had you, Gu, it took a very, very long time.”

“Xiao Gu, don’t worry; Father and Mother will give you a brother or sister.”

“Okay.”

Time passed quietly, and soon it was dusk. Ye Qingcheng stood quietly at the top of the mountain, watching the sunset, with Xiao Gu standing on her shoulder.

Although she was just standing there casually, Ye Qingcheng could still feel that the surrounding spiritual qi was constantly gathering towards them. Needless to say, it must be because of Xiao Gu.

Xiao Gu had been with them for a long time, but she still didn’t know where Xiao Gu came from, nor did she know what his original body was. But it was indeed the right choice to bring Xiao Gu with her, as it was very beneficial to her cultivation.

Ye Qingcheng was surprised that she went from the early Nascent Soul stage to the middle Nascent Soul stage in one night, but she didn’t stop because of this. Now that she had Xiao Gu gathering the spiritual qi, she quickly entered a meditative state under the setting sun.

The power in her body began to merge with the surrounding spiritual power, forming a state where she was in you and you were in me.

However, her state didn’t last long, as the sect bell suddenly rang out. Whenever the bell rings, something big must have happened in the Holy Maiden Sect. As the strongest disciple of the Holy Maiden Sect, Ye Qingcheng naturally wouldn’t stay here after hearing the bell.

She rose into the air and flew in the direction of the main hall.

When Ye Qingcheng arrived at the main hall,the vice sect master and the eleven elders were all present.Seeing Ye Qingcheng coming over, the Ninth Elder’s gaze quickly fell on Ye Qingcheng’s body. Discovering that there was something subtle about her and feeling that the current Ye Qingcheng was even more charming than before!

Ye Qingcheng glanced at the elders in the hall, but when she saw the Ninth Elder, she bit her red lips awkwardly and looked away. “Vice sect master, why did the bell suddenly ring?”

“The demonic sect is attacking. Everyone, prepare for battle!”

“What? They are here again?” Ye Qingcheng’s expression turned serious. Could it be that the Abyssal Demon Venerable knew that she and Qin Lu were the ones who killed the two hall masters, so he came to kill?

The demonic sect didn’t come during the day or afternoon. Instead, they chose to come at dusk. Were they planning to fight at night?

“Yes, the people that the Abyssal Demon brought this time are very strong. Qingcheng, where’s Qin Lu? Why didn’t he come with you?”

“He…”

“Elder, Father hasn’t woken up yet!” Xiao Gu hastily said from Ye Qingcheng’s shoulder. However, as soon as he spoke, the Ninth Elder couldn’t help but laugh.

The others didn’t understand why the Ninth Elder suddenly laughed, but Ye Qingcheng’s face turned red because of the Ninth Elder’s laughter.

“Qingcheng, the situation this time is very dangerous. There are three Demon Venerables and fourteen Nascent Soul Realm cultivators, not to mention the other realms.”

“This time, our Holy Maiden Sect is in great danger!”

“Three Demon Venerables?!” Ye Qingcheng’s face was deathly pale.

One had to know that all the Demon Venerables were all in the Out of Body Realm. Last time, it was extremely difficult for them to defeat one Out of Body Realm cultivator. Now that there were three Out of Body realm cultivators, how could they fight this battle?!

“Vice sect master, when will my master come out of seclusion?”

“This, I’m not sure either!”

“Qingcheng, if the situation turns bad, I hope you and Qin Lu can leave the Holy Maiden Sect.”

“Leave? Why should I leave?”

“You are the most talented disciples of the Holy Maiden Sect. As long as you are alive, the Holy Maiden Sect still has hope.”

“I won’t leave. I want to advance and retreat with you.”“Qingcheng, the vice sect master, is right. You and Qin Lu are the hope of our Holy Maiden Sect. You can’t die here.”

“This time, your responsibility is to evacuate some of the weaker disciples. We can block the demonic sect experts in front.” The First Elder also gave his own suggestion. As long as Ye Qingcheng was still alive, she would definitely reach the Out of Body Realm in the future, or even the Spirit Severing Realm.

As long as she remains strong-willed, even if the Holy Maiden Sect were destroyed today, it could still be reborn in the future.

“Elders, I want to fight with you all!”

“Qingcheng, listen to me. Take the disciples and retreat first.”

“After those disciples have retreated, you can come and help us,” the Ninth Elder suggested.

“But…”

“Qingcheng, this is an order. Are you not going to listen to this elder’s orders? Before your master went into seclusion, she told you to listen to me. You want to go against your master’s wishes?”

“Ok elder. Then, I will take the disciples to retreat first.” Ye Qingcheng nodded, then decisively turned around and left.

“This child, how good would it be if she had more time to grow!”

“Elders, this time, I’m afraid that our Holy Maiden Sect is doomed. If you don’t want to die, then leave with Qingcheng. I won’t blame you.”

“Vice Sect Master, what are you saying? The Holy Maiden Sect is our home. How can we leave?”

“Since the demons are coming, then we will fight them to the death.”

“That’s right. Let’s fight to the death!” The other elders also agreed.

“In that case, let’s go and meet those demonic sect people.”

“Vice Sect Master, we are so close to the Xiao Clan. Should we ask for help from them?” The Tenth Elder suddenly asked

The Xiao Clan had three Out of Body realm experts. If they could send one, it would reduce a lot of casualties.

“I’ve already sent people over. It’s hard to say whether they will come or not. After all, when the demonic sect attacked last time, the Xiao Clan, which was the closest, didn’t send anyone to help.”

“I can’t be sure whether they will come or not. The most important thing is to rely on ourselves.” Tantai Yue reminded everyone, then walked out of the hall. Because the situation this time was not optimistic, Tantai Yue directly ordered all the Foundation Establishment and Qi Refinement realm disciples to retreat.

They only brought the Core Formation and Golden Core realm disciples along with them for the battle.

In the One-Line Sky, the demon army of five thousand stopped there. Three Out of Body Realm Demon Venerables stood at the front. Their eyes were fixed in the direction of the Holy Maiden Sect, and it was unknown what they were thinking.

“Abyss, we have so many experts this time. Why don’t we just fight our way in? How can a mere Holy Maiden Sect stop us?” A beautiful Demon Venerable with her head full of red clothes, suggested.
