Chapter 693: Killing the Beloved to Verify the Dao
(The ending paragraphs of the previous chapter were written incorrectly; Ye Lin went to the Hall of Indulgent Joy, not the Hall of No-Thought.)
"Tsk, tsk, tsk!"
Ye Lin couldn't help but shake his head, thinking to himself that the people in this Hall of Indulgent Joy were truly perverted.
He took some slips of paper out of his storage space; when he was surrounded by senior sisters outside the Punishment Hall, some of them had stuffed their cave abode addresses into his hands.
Ye Lin randomly chose a senior sister named Lin Qingqing and began knocking on the door once he arrived outside her cave abode.
Knock, knock, knock.
"Who is it?!"
A vigilant voice came from inside the cave abode.
"It's me, Senior Sister, I'm Ye Xiehong."
"Oh, it's the little junior brother! Wait a moment, I'll be ready right away!"
A rustling sound came from inside the cave abode, as if the owner was tidying something up.
A moment later, the cave gate opened, and a scent of photinia flowers mixed with the smell of sea waves rushed into his nose, along with the fragrance of rouge.
Lin Qingqing had clearly dressed up specifically; her graceful and exquisite figure was faintly visible under a layer of thin gauze, enough to make one's blood boil.
"Little junior brother, I thought you weren't coming. Come, sit down~"
Lin Qingqing grabbed Ye Lin's hand and, twisting her waist, pulled him into her cave abode.
Taking advantage of the fact that Lin Qingqing had her back to him, Ye Lin activated the Soul-Hunting Underworld Pupils, his eyes turning pitch black.
After activating the Soul-Hunting Underworld Pupils, he quickly discovered a shriveled male corpse lying quietly in the corner.
The corpse was skin and bones, just like a mummy.
Furthermore, he also saw the man's soul body, which was wailing in constant agony.
Ye Lin couldn't help but sigh; this Joyous Union Sect was truly a sect that devoured people without spitting out the bones.
Although his Yi Hong Zoo also practiced dual cultivation, it emphasized mutual benefit and sustainable development.
The Joyous Union Sect, on the other hand, sucked people dry into mummies in one go; while this cultivation method was fast, it was essentially draining the pond to catch the fish.
"Come, little junior brother, Elder Pei must have hurt you today, right? You can hit me to vent your anger."
After pulling Ye Lin to sit down, Lin Qingqing fished a long whip out of a cabinet and looked at Ye Lin with affectionate eyes.
Ye Lin took the long whip, his lips curling in a frivolous smile, and said in a deep voice.
"Senior Sister, turn around."
"Okay~"
Lin Qingqing turned around with great anticipation, displaying all the graceful curves of her back before Ye Lin.
However, what she waited for was not a stinging whip, but a bronze tripod weighing more than a mountain!
Ye Lin grabbed the Bronze Dragon Vein Tripod and swung it down, instantly shattering Lin Qingqing's bones.
Lin Qingqing had never expected Ye Lin to suddenly attack her and was immediately struck into a state of severe injury.
Spitting blood, she scrambled in terror into the corner.
"Little junior brother, what are you doing?"
"Strip away the skin, and there are but two hundred and six bones; put on the clothes, and there are eighteen thousand appearances."
"Monster! I need you to assist my cultivation!"
Ye Lin shouted while swinging the Bronze Dragon Vein Tripod.
"Cultivation is cultivation, why are you smashing me?" Lin Qingqing was completely baffled.
"Oh, I practice the Heartless Dao, which requires killing one's beloved to verify the Dao," Ye Lin explained.
"But you don't even love me!" Lin Qingqing was about to go insane.
"What love or not? I'll kill you first, then we'll see—take this tripod!"
Ye Lin chased after her, swinging the Bronze Dragon Vein Tripod; Lin Qingqing wanted to dodge, but how could she escape after being severely injured by Ye Lin's sneak attack?
She didn't run far before Ye Lin smashed her again, nearly bursting her bladder.
"Ultimate Charm Heavenly Art!"
Lin Qingqing let out a loud cry, and an indescribable force of enchantment surged toward Ye Lin, intending to corrupt his mind.
But Ye Lin was completely unmoved; he just threw his mind into the smashing.
A moment later, this beautiful senior sister from the Hall of Indulgent Joy became a soul under Ye Lin's tripod.
Ye Lin waved the Ten Thousand Soul Banner, collecting the poor man who had died under her pomegranate skirt into the banner as well, giving him a home.
After finishing all this, Ye Lin began to select his second lucky senior sister.
Given his pure-hearted performance during the day, the senior sisters had almost no defenses when they heard it was him, and they opened their doors for him.
He was just a little junior brother who had been wronged and targeted by Elder Nu; what kind of bad intentions could he possibly have?
This night was destined to be sleepless.
Ye Lin was like the Grim Reaper; whoever's door he knocked on, that person died.
During this time, he also encountered quite a few powerful senior sisters, and the fighting was intense.
But fortunately, the cave abodes of the disciples of the Hall of Indulgent Joy were basically equipped with soundproofing arrays, so the sounds of the fighting didn't attract much attention.
After all, there was no need to say what the disciples of the Hall of Indulgent Joy were doing at night.
When some people go "bang, bang, bang," the noise is indeed quite loud.
Early the next morning, Ye Lin walked out of a cave abode looking refreshed.
In just this one night, over a hundred senior sisters had assisted his cultivation, directly pushing his cultivation from the middle stage of the Heavenly Gang Realm to the late stage.
This feeling was simply wonderful.
Moreover, he didn't have to worry about the matter being exposed; if he were caught, he would just say he was practicing the Record of No-Thought and No-Heart.
The only pity was that the slips of paper those senior sisters had given him were basically used up; if he were to just knock on someone else's door, they might not necessarily be willing to open it for him.
However, heaven never closes all doors.
Soon, Ye Lin thought of what to do.
At the entrance of the Hall of Indulgent Joy, a beautiful scene soon appeared.
A young man in white, his black eyes clear and innocent, like an immortal who had fallen into the mortal world.
He stood at the entrance of the Hall of Indulgent Joy, holding a wooden sign in his hand with words written on it.
"I am Ye Xiehong, sincerely looking for a cultivation partner, CP seeking a partner."
This move by Ye Lin quickly attracted many Joyous Union Sect disciples to watch.
What kind of place was the Hall of Indulgent Joy? And someone was actually coming here to look for a cultivation partner?
However, Ye Lin's almost monstrously handsome face still aroused the interest of many people.
"Little junior brother, you come to the Hall of Indulgent Joy to find a partner, aren't you afraid your body won't be able to handle it?" a senior sister asked with a smile.
"You can insult my intelligence, but you cannot insult my muscles!"
Ye Lin immediately imitated his idol, the founder of raw rice and carbon, and began to show off his muscles—front poses, back poses, bicep displays—he did them all.
This comical scene made the senior sisters of the Joyous Union Sect laugh out loud; it was the first time they had seen such a silly junior brother.
Everyone didn't take it to heart, just treating Ye Lin as a source of amusement.
Seeing that more and more people were gathering, Ye Lin directly used his "money power."
A mountain appeared in front of the disciples of the Hall of Indulgent Joy.
It was a mountain made of Immortal Source Stones! The dense Immortal Source Qi left everyone stunned on the spot!
Ye Lin scratched his head and said shyly.
"If anyone is willing to become my cultivation partner, I am willing to offer 388, 00 high-grade Immortal Source Stones as a betrothal gift."
