Chapter 104: Yan Qingxuan's Plea

~6 min read 1,191 words

"What timing?"

Hearing these abrupt words from Yan Qingxuan, Wang Jianqiang frowned.

Yan Qingxuan stared at Wang Jianqiang, her expression grave as she said, "The timing to overthrow the Hehuan Ancestor and change the sky for this Hehuan Sect!"

Hearing Yan Qingxuan's words, Wang Jianqiang's heart skipped a beat.

Yan Qingxuan sensed Wang Jianqiang's emotional fluctuation, glanced at him, and sighed, "In the eyes of many, we Inner Sect Elders are all glamorous and hold great power, but who would have thought that we are merely a group of servants who cannot control our own fates."

"The Hehuan Ancestor is a person with an extreme desire for power and is also extremely suspicious by nature."

"Ever since he took control of the Hehuan Sect, every Cultivator who reaches the Golden Core Stage must go to the Yin Yang Hall."

Wang Jianqiang's expression shifted, "What is the Yin Yang Hall?"

This name was very unfamiliar.

He had been in the sect for so many years and had never heard of such a place in the Hehuan Sect.

Yan Qingxuan explained, "The Yin Yang Hall is located within the Forbidden Land of the Hehuan Sect and is a powerful Magic Treasure."

"This treasure can imprint Soul Tablets and control people's life and death."

"Once a Soul Tablet is imprinted, one's life and death are in the hands of the Hehuan Ancestor with a single thought."

Wang Jianqiang widened his eyes, "That is to say, all the Golden Core Stage Cultivators in the sect are being controlled!"

"Not just the Golden Core Stage; even the Nascent Soul Stage and some geniuses at the Foundation Establishment Stage cannot escape the fate of being controlled." Yan Qingxuan sighed, "Just like Senior Sister, she was also once required to enter the Yin Yang Hall, but it was delayed by Master."

"Later, the Hehuan Ancestor failed his breakthrough and went into seclusion, so he couldn't attend to these matters, and that is how Senior Sister was spared."

Yan Qingxuan's words rang out like a thunderclap, causing Wang Jianqiang's pupils to constrict.

Following that, he frowned again, "Since the Hehuan Ancestor can determine your life and death with a single thought, wouldn't being his enemy be seeking your own death?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Qingxuan's expression became sharp, "Normally speaking, we have no chance of turning things around."

"But one hundred and twenty years ago, the Hehuan Ancestor failed his attempt to reach Spirit Transformation, causing severe damage to his foundation, and since then he has been in seclusion to recover, and he has not yet recovered to this day."

"Because the Yin Yang Hall has not received his Spiritual Power nourishment for a long time, the connection between it and him has become much weaker."

"This just happens to give us a chance to break the situation; as long as we destroy the Yin Yang Hall before he reacts, we can break free from his control."

"Now, Master and I have already found a way to destroy the Yin Yang Hall."

"The only thing lacking now is that after destroying the Yin Yang Hall, we still lack the strength to deal with the Hehuan Ancestor."

"Although the Hehuan Ancestor's foundation is damaged and has not recovered, he was, after all, a Nascent Soul Stage Perfection Cultivator, and it is difficult to contend with him relying on Master alone."

"Therefore, I must break through to the Nascent Soul Stage before we begin the operation, and if Senior Sister can also break through, that would undoubtedly be the best result."

"Moreover, we do not have much time left; we must act within ten years at most, otherwise, if the Hehuan Ancestor comes out of seclusion, it will be too late."

As she spoke, she stared at Wang Jianqiang and said sincerely, "Therefore, we need your help."

Wang Jianqiang shrugged, "I want to help too, but my current alchemy cultivation is only Second Tier High Grade, and I don't have any high-level Pill Formula, so how can I help?"

"My Master will provide you with the Pill Formula, as for the alchemy cultivation..."

Yan Qingxuan looked at Wang Jianqiang with a half-smile, "Don't you have a Secret Technique that allows for rapid breakthroughs?"

"Dong Yue even told your Master about this?" Wang Jianqiang's eyes widened.

Yan Qingxuan smiled, "The success or failure of this plan determines the survival of our lineage; it is a matter of great importance, and Senior Sister dared not hide it."

Having said this, she paused and looked deeply at Wang Jianqiang, "I know that using that Secret Technique will have great side effects, but we really have no other way. Can you... help us?"

"This~" Wang Jianqiang's expression was hesitant for a moment.

Yan Qingxuan looked at Wang Jianqiang without urging him.

Logically speaking.

Regarding their plan, she should not give Wang Jianqiang the right to choose.

Even if it meant forcing him, she should make him agree.

But for some reason.

Upon seeing Wang Jianqiang, she found she could never harden her heart to force him.

Fortunately.

Wang Jianqiang was much more magnanimous than she had imagined.

After thinking for only a moment, he nodded.

"Fine, I agree."

Hearing Wang Jianqiang agree, Yan Qingxuan's expression relaxed.

A trace of joy appeared on her face, "Thank you."

Wang Jianqiang shook his head, "Given the relationship between you, Dong Yue, and me, I cannot refuse."

"I cannot watch you and Dong Yue die because the plan fails."

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, Yan Qingxuan's eyes flashed.

"Ding, Yan Qingxuan's Good and Evil Value has increased."

In Wang Jianqiang's mind, the system's notification sound came through.

She felt a surge of joy in her heart.

On the surface, she remained calm, "For your sake, sacrificing my future alchemy prospects, I, Wang, accept it."

Yan Qingxuan sighed, "It is we who have dragged you down."

"In the future, if our plan succeeds, we will certainly do our utmost to compensate you."

"No need."

Wang Jianqiang smiled indifferently, "What I, Wang, value in helping is not your compensation."

Yan Qingxuan looked deeply at Wang Jianqiang.

She nodded.

After a moment of silence, she spoke again, "Can you raise your Alchemy cultivation to Third-tier Advanced within five years?"

"I can."

Wang Jianqiang nodded.

Yan Qingxuan was delighted, "Then break through as soon as possible; if you have any difficulties, contact me and Senior Sister at any time."

Wang Jianqiang nodded.

Then, his expression shifted, "Why didn't Dong Yue come with you to discuss this matter with me?"

Yan Qingxuan paused, then said, "She refused; she feels she already owes you too much and insists on not letting you pay any more."

Wang Jianqiang nodded.

"Go back and tell Dong Yue that in the future, if there is anything she needs, she should just tell Wang."

"For Wang, I would gladly sacrifice everything."

Yan Qingxuan took one more deep look at Wang Jianqiang, "I will certainly convey it."

Having finished speaking.

Her figure flashed and vanished from sight.

After Yan Qingxuan left.

Wang Jianqiang chuckled.

He returned to the Cultivation Room, took out the Pill Furnace, and began Alchemy to accumulate Cultivation Points.
