he lowered his voice, “Disciple Ming Yuanji’s actions last night seemed to be troubling Si Chen on the surface, but in reality, his intention was to harm the Miss.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Geyu tapped her hand lightly, her tone nonchalant, “There’s no need for elaboration on this matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I had guessed his intent the moment he took action.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chai Ye nodded and continued, “However, what Miss may not know is that if someone harbors ill intentions towards the Miss, how could there be only one move made?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ming Yuanji’s intentions were too obvious and easy to guess, nearly seeming like bait that was deliberately set out.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then…” Fang Geyu looked at the bloodstain on his sleeve.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chai Ye gave a slight smile, “Then naturally, the real blade is hidden in a deeper darkness, closer at hand.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His smiling expression suddenly turned solemn, “It was Junior Brother Li.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Geyu didn’t show any surprise but nodded lightly, “No wonder last night Si Chen said to me that even if we lose a few Guest Elder Cultivators, it’s not necessarily a bad thing…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>a few…” She chuckled softly, “His insights are indeed sharp.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chai Ye looked helpless yet cold, “Under Si Chen’s hint, I’ve captured him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a night of torture, he finally confessed that he was from the Wandao Immortal Alliance.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Wandao Immortal Alliance?” Fang Geyu sat up straight but quickly relaxed again, her cold laugh returning, “It makes sense, and it’s no wonder.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although now the whole Mortal World’s Immortal Path is divided into three parts, controlled by Tianxi, Taixuan, and Cangwu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, there are so many Cultivators in the world, the power of the Three Sects is certainly strong and deeply rooted, but they can’t accommodate all the cultivators from various nations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And those who enter the Three Sects are subject to extremely stringent requirements.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whether it’s Spirit Root, character, morality, state of mind, or knowledge, all aspects must be up to standard, in addition to having a clean background and upright behavior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those who are chosen for these Three Sects, among millions of Cultivators, are few and far between.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And those who are not lucky enough to be affiliated with the Three Sects’ power have no choice but to seek other allegiances.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone knows that the Hundred Immortal Sects each have their strengths and many magical and sacred places, yet where do they compare to the three thousand-year-old Immortals that control the holy lands of the Three Sects?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Outside of the Three Sects, there is no shortage of accomplished individuals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But they are far from matching the geniuses cultivated by sacred places like Tianxi, Taixuan, and Cangwu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those who join an Immortal Sect and succeed have to serve their Sect day and night, with limited freedom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Over time, the Mortal World saw the rise of Loose Cultivators.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Loose Cultivators are not affiliated with any Immortal Sect; they come and go as they please, enduring hardship to cultivate themselves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Until five hundred years ago, during the golden age when the Three Sects were at their peak, among Loose Cultivators emerged a remarkable figure who founded the Wandao Immortal Alliance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wandao, like Senluo’s myriad phenomena, thrived in prosperity, gathering the forces of Loose Cultivators from all regions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Joining the Immortal Alliance, they were not restrained in their freedom and were not required to make annual contributions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunes and treasures obtained by disciples themselves all belonged to them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Immortal Alliance had a vast collection of Immortal teachings and scripts and taught them to the disciples without reservation, and they were also generous in handing out spirit pills and treasures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Loose Cultivators banded together into a new force, not bound by Sects, and were able to receive significant nurturing from the Immortal Alliance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The number of people willing to join was countless, coming endlessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the Wandao Immortal Alliance, in terms of true strength, is not equal to any one of the Three Sects.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But their number of disciples is more than ten times the combined total of the Three Sects.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not to mention, its Alliance Hierarch is a greatly benevolent character known for building good connections; he does not confine his disciples’ contributions to freedom, all relying on voluntary devotion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, many Loose Cultivators willingly offered their services and sincerely pledged allegiance to the Immortal Alliance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Over time, the Wandao Immortal Alliance grew stronger day by day, yet it had not been officially recognized.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although its Alliance Hierarch was a Daoist Immortal of the Tribulation Realm, he was not granted the title of Golden Immortal by the Emperor on the day of his ascension as the three-thousand-year-old Immortals were, nor was he favored by the Immortal Path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But regardless, their status in the Mortal World was certainly not low.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even predictions were made that the Wandao Immortal Alliance would become the fourth major Sect that would awe the ages and be renowned for all time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Shifang City also had intricate business dealings with the Wandao Immortal Alliance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Geyu looked out at the cold night, where moonlight illuminated the snow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The chill seemed to gradually erase the last trace of a smile in her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, there appeared a bone-chilling, eerie ferocity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She spoke indifferently, yet her words carried a chilling solemnity, “Then let him live a good life.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chai Ye was taken aback, not understanding why she would not exterminate the threat at its root.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Geyu turned her head towards him and smiled lightly, a departure from her usual wild and proud demeanor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her smile was like thin snow on the branches, with an ethereal grace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The more she smiled in such a way, the more Chai Ye felt a chill run down his spine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beside Fang Geyu’s fingertips, unbeknownst to him, a Jade Bottle had appeared, its green color transparent and pure, holding within it a large red Zhu Pill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the object in the Jade Bottle, Chai Ye felt an inexplicable tingling in his scalp, “Miss, is this…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Geyu said, “Sometimes, ruthless torture is a common practice, but the object of inquiry is nothing more than the truth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today, I have been victim to schemes, treated as if my Tiangge City is not worth considering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Killing one or two people…” Her laugh was sharp and enchanting, “It’s not enough.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chai Ye instantly understood and complicatedly took the Jade Bottle resting quietly on the railing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I never knew that the Miss possessed such a soul-dividing Evil Pill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to the city records, the creator of this pill is Gu Qi, the Master of the Tenth Hall from Cangwu Palace a hundred years ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This pill can forcibly separate half of a Cultivator’s soul from their body without injuring their life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through that extracted half of the soul, one can control all the actions and consciousness of the individual’s main body.”\u003C\u002Fp>",1364,"2026-06-06T15:16:24.481Z",1,"novelbin.me","ff1afcf42bf8ce7c9fd9ac0a72e09aff0aabdb111bfed8781c10cf6a31857648","journey-to-the-end-of-the-night-chapter-202","journey-to-the-end-of-the-night-chapter-400",1594,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fjourney-to-the-end-of-the-night-cover.jpg"]
