Chapter 57: Five Hundred Years Have Passed, How Is She Still So Stubborn!

After giving instructions to Hua Bairui, Jiang Xun flew toward the Lingerie-Sect, opened the Mountain Protection Array, and before long, arrived at his small cabin.

"Senior Brother!"

Inside the cabin, Tu Qing was pacing back and forth in the courtyard, looking very anxious.

Seeing Jiang Xun return, she hurriedly ran toward him and threw herself into his arms: "Senior Brother, are you alright?"

"What could possibly happen to me?"

Jiang Xun held Tu Qing and smiled.

"It's all my fault. If I hadn't failed to notice the spy, you wouldn't have suffered this ordeal."

Tu Qing buried herself in Jiang Xun's arms and said with a sobbing tone.

"It has nothing to do with you; it was my own choice to go to the Baihua Sect, and I even went directly to their sect."

Jiang Xun stroked Tu Qing's small head to comfort her.

"Didn't I return safe and sound?"

"Hmph..." Tu Qing pulled away from Jiang Xun's arms and looked at him with resentment: "I suppose that woman Yin Ningyu wouldn't make things difficult for you; she must have captured you because she wanted to keep you all to herself."

"Five hundred years have passed, how is she still so stubborn!"

On the way back, Jiang Xun had already told Tu Qing everything that happened at the Baihua Sect.

And while Tu Qing wasn't wrong, how could Jiang Xun admit it?

"She just locked me up and never saw me; I don't even know what she meant by it," Jiang Xun laughed.

"Then, what about that Hua Bairui who saved you?" Tu Qing looked at Jiang Xun and asked.

"I arranged for her to stay at the Fairy Pavilion for now. Tomorrow, have someone build another small cabin next to mine; she will live here from now on."

"..." Tu Qing rolled her eyes at Jiang Xun: "I don't care. You brought the woman back, you deal with her yourself."

You keep another woman, and you even want me to build her a house...

What is this?

Am I easy to bully?

"Is our Tu Qing jealous?"

Seeing this, Jiang Xun couldn't help but smile.

"Yeah, I'm jealous, so what!"

Tu Qing put her hands on her waist, puffed out her chest, and shouted with a proud look.

"Smack!"

Jiang Xun didn't hold back and slapped her ten centimeters above the back of her thigh.

"Ah..."

Tu Qing immediately deflated, clutching her bottom: "I was wrong, Tu Qing was wrong, Senior Brother."

"You little vixen, you will always be my first woman, what are you jealous of?"

Jiang Xun looked at Tu Qing and smiled: "Can you get the cabin built by tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow won't work, it will take three days."

Tu Qing pouted and shook her head.

Even using techniques, building a house isn't that fast.

"Then are we still going to the Baihua Sect?"

Tu Qing then looked at Jiang Xun and asked.

"She is at the Late Transformation Spirit Peak Stage; can you beat her? By the way, has Senior Sister Yu broken through?"

Jiang Xun asked.

"She succeeded in breaking through and is currently in seclusion, stabilizing her internal power," Tu Qing nodded: "Then, shouldn't we be guarding against them coming to attack the Lingerie-Sect instead?"

"I've checked. Although Yin Ningyu's realm is higher, there are no other Spirit Transformation cultivators besides her. Chen Ning is only at the Nascent Soul Great Perfection. As for the other Elders, although they didn't appear, everyone surrounded me at the time, and I didn't sense any Spirit Transformation aura."

"So, as long as we have the Mountain Protection Array, Yin Ningyu won't make a move against us; she isn't confident either."

"Once you and Senior Sister Yu can hold her off, the people of the Baihua Sect will suffer heavy losses, and even if she wins, there will be no benefit for her."

Tu Qing nodded upon hearing this, her eyes lighting up: "Senior Brother, let me see that Purgatory Fire Bead of yours."

Jiang Xun had used the Purgatory Fire Bead to break out, so Tu Qing naturally knew of its existence.

Besides, he had taken it out in front of so many people, so it was impossible to keep it hidden.

Jiang Xun immediately took out the Purgatory Fire Bead and handed it to Tu Qing.

"So this is the Purgatory Fire Bead... I have never heard of such a treasure before."

Tu Qing looked at the Purgatory Fire Bead with burning eyes and said: "If this flame truly never stops, then we could rely on it to attack the Baihua Sect, right? And the flames can be controlled; we could surround all the people of the Baihua Sect."

"At that point, Yin Ningyu definitely wouldn't dare to fight back!"

"Did you destroy the eavesdropping Formation?" Jiang Xun asked, glancing around the room.

"Of course I did." Tu Qing nodded.

"..." Jiang Xun looked at Tu Qing with a serious expression: "A Qing..."

Hearing Jiang Xun call her A Qing, Tu Qing was also stunned for a moment.

Senior Brother only ever did that when he needed something from her.

"I know that in order to rank among the Ten Great Sects, we must merge with the Baihua Sect. I can use the Purgatory Fire Bead to surround them, but can we avoid hurting them? If they resist to the death, let's just forget it."

"... Senior Brother, you don't want to hurt Yin Ningyu?"

How could Tu Qing not know what Jiang Xun was thinking?

She hadn't expected that even though Jiang Xun was so old now, Yin Ningyu still liked him, and she was even more surprised that Yin Ningyu had actually waited for Jiang Xun for five hundred years.

"I suppose so," Jiang Xun nodded: "On one hand, I don't want to hurt her; on the other hand, we are going there to merge the sects. Once successful, they will all be disciples of our Lingerie-Sect, so there is no need to kill them all, otherwise, it will be difficult to control them later."

"I've already thought it through; when the time comes, I will plant the Linger Gu in all of them. I won't have to worry about them not obeying. Over time, they will become increasingly assimilated with the Lingerie-Sect, and then the Linger Gu will no longer be needed."

Tu Qing laughed.

The so-called Linger Gu is a unique insect of the Lingerie-Sect; after ingesting this insect, if there is no antidote within a month, one will suffer from unbearable itching and will scratch all the skin off their entire body.

Until they scratch themselves to death.

The method of death is extremely painful.

It is also possible to locate the position of every insect based on the mother insect, completely mastering their tracks.

"This... isn't that a bit too ruthless?"

Jiang Xun could not help but say.

"Oh, Senior Brother, I use the Linger Gu to make them behave. As long as they are obedient, I will naturally give them the antidote, and slowly, I will stop using the Linger Gu."

"Besides, making the antidote is a huge expense, and I don't want to spend that money."

"By the way, Senior Brother, I've noticed you've become so powerful lately. How exactly did you cultivate from Foundation Establishment back to the Nascent Soul Early Stage so quickly? Where did the Purgatory Fire Bead come from? And also, this black robe of yours doesn't look simple either!"

Tu Qing looked at Jiang Xun and asked, her little mouth chattering away.

"I had a stroke of luck and met a great expert, but he won't let me say much."

Jiang Xun laughed.

"Oh..." Tu Qing nodded upon hearing this: "Senior Brother has secrets from me now."

"A Qing." Jiang Xun looked at her helplessly.

"Alright, alright, I know, it's that great expert who won't let you talk." Tu Qing nodded repeatedly: "But Senior Brother, you must also be careful not to fall into someone else's trap."

"Rest assured, I know what I'm doing." Jiang Xun nodded.

"Since Tang Ying is no longer at the Baihua Gate, then six days from now, when the Void Heaven Secret Realm opens, we will attack the Baihua Sect with the entire sect."

Tu Qing finally looked at Jiang Xun with a serious face and said.
