Chapter 286: The One Who Lifted Her Up for Rebirth, the High Priest (2nd update)

The Wei San Niang who rushed up was directly bitten into nine pieces!

She didn't even leave a last word…

Jiu Ying had already chewed her to pieces and swallowed her.

"Eat them,"

Shen Qingli has never let Jiu Ying eat people, because of her principles.

But now, Wei San Niang and the others don't even regard her as a person.

Moreover, the infant who swallowed Jiu Ying's beast core obviously needs a "sacrifice".

"Go ahead and eat."

"Eat freely."

Shen Qingli's eyes were dark and deep.

In the face of her own survival and the safety of her own people.

She no longer needs to keep her principles…

"Older sister."

Di Jin not only held her hand, but also covered her eyes.

His sister has always been a very kind person.

That's why the Azure Jade Sect could bully and humiliate her.

— A gentleman deceives with propriety.

If she weren't too kind, how could she have endured and sacrificed for so long?

After all, in the eyes of the virtuous, most people in the world are also virtuous; she didn't want to judge others with malice, yet she didn't realize that others were exploiting this, scheming against her and trampling her.

"It's fine."

Shen Qingli wanted to pull Di Jin's hand away.

She didn't think there was anything she couldn't bear to see.

But Di Jin still didn't let go.

Back then, at the Azure Jade Sect, he had scolded her for being stupid.

Later, especially now, he hopes she remains as she originally was.

Because that would mean she had never suffered those bullying, humiliation, trampling, and hardships.

She has changed, naturally becoming more decisive, confident, composed, and shining…

But her change was entirely bought with blood.

"Sorry, I was young back then; I shouldn't have called you stupid."

Di Jin apologized, truly having many faults; how could he scold her?

How could he, just because she pushed him, stay angry and stop seeking her?

If he had gone again, how could it have come to this?

Di Jin's eyes reddened as he suppressed his emotions.

Shen Qingli faintly sensed, "Do you remember even more now?"

"Hn." Di Jin replied hoarsely, just in that moment.

"So it's you who let me be reborn?" Shen Qingli had always wanted to know this answer.

Di Jin looked at her face, only lips and jaw visible from his cover, "Let us both be reborn."

Indeed it was him! Shen Qingli gripped his hand, able to smell a strong, strong scent of blood.

Around them, the cries of fathers and mothers rose and fell…

After all, Jiu Ying has come of age! It needs a large amount of flesh and blood.

Not a single person of the Wei clan could escape!

All were bitten apart, chewed, and swallowed by it mouthful after mouthful.

It didn't gulp them down whole; Jiu Ying liked the crisp, crunchy feeling of biting people, and the sensation of blood spurting out.

"Waa waa waa~"

The cheerful infant's cries truly are the voice of a devil!

Jiu Li covered their eyes, unable to watch, "How terrible."

But this strong bloody feeling is exactly what she felt at the moment of her death in her previous life.

Shen Qingli, after all, has turned to the demonic path; even without bones! She could still cultivate herself back to the royal level.

Zhao Yue and the others are much stronger than her, but she doesn't care about her life! She has counter-killed many of them.

All around are corpses, those of the righteous anti-demon forces summoned by the Azure Jade Sect…

It feels as if we've returned to that time.

But this time is different; she is the one who possesses absolute power!

Behind her, there is also a warm, reliable chest to lean on.

"What price have you paid?"

Shen Qingli asked softly, her hand trembling slightly.

"It's nothing; as long as we win the battle, I win."

"What if we don't?"

"There's no 'if'."

Di Jin is very resolute!

Shen Qingli didn't ask further.

The result of losing would surely be tragic.

Fortunately they won, and she tightly gripped Di Jin's hand.

Di Jin also tightly held her; all the blood mist fell not on her, but on him.

That day, the Wei clan of the Great Formless Death Realm saw rivers of blood! Not a chicken or dog left; all went into Jiu Ying's mouth.

But Shen Qingli and the others did not find what they wanted within the Wei clan's territory.

"No formation?"

"Relying purely on flight between them?"

Shen Qingli was astonished; if so, wouldn't they be blocked?

"Burp~"

Jiu Ying was already hiccuping, but……

It was also especially excited, its eighteen eyes all gleaming with ferocity!

"Master! Anyone else?"

"Can you still eat?"

"Of course!"

Jiu Ying excitedly rubbed its head.

"Watch out, you'll burst!"

Jiu Li was truly impressed; the Wei clan numbered tens of thousands up and down!

"I'd be happy to be a full-to-bursting ghost!"

Jiu Ying knew very well: after this village, there'd be no more shop!

Once outside, the kind-hearted master would surely not feed it people again!

"Sister, Star Chart Mountain." Di Jin said.

Shen Qingli slapped her forehead, "Right, how did I forget it!"

"It can't return without being summoned, but look here."

Shen Qingli followed Di Jin's gaze to the ground, faintly making out a clue.

She immediately flew up, and indeed saw a star map from above!

"Little star." Shen Qingli produced the Star Chart Mountain in her hand.

As soon as it appeared, the star map below indeed stirred.

Gleaming starlight flickered softly, not bright, and in this blood-soaked realm it even looked gloomy.

But to Shen Qingli and the others, it was a brilliant light of hope!

"Hum."

"Hum, ……"

The star map grew brighter, even projecting a star map upward into the sky.

Di Jin immediately pulled her, "Let's go."

"Me too!" Jiu Li hurriedly clung to Shen Qingli's legs.

Jiu Ying also quickly entered the star formation, and the starlight immediately surged upward.

The originally dim, wailing Great Formless Ghost Realm became unprecedentedly bright!

Only then did Shen Qingli notice that there were mountains near the Wei clan, and their shape seemed somewhat familiar?

Thanks to the starlight, she saw the three allied forces rushing in! One of them actually had wings!

"Bird people?" Jiu Li's eyes widened in astonishment!

Jiu Ying licked the blood at the corner of its mouth, "Looks delicious."

"Formless Clan." Di Jin recognized them, "The guides of the Buddhist Realm's Great Formless Realm; the land of life and this place are indeed interconnected."

The Great Formless Realm had always given him a bad feeling; the Formless Clan, though seeming to shine with divine light, always gave him a gloomy sense, which was no coincidence.

"Zhao Yue's dark arts were likely taught by them."

"Then she isn't dead yet?"

Shen Qingli had never seen Zhao Yue's corpse before.

"She's dead."

Di Jin was quite sure, after all it was "he" who devoured her.

"But with no remains and no reincarnation, isn't that letting her off easy?"

"A bit." Shen Qingli felt a little regret, still wanting to send her to the newly opened Hell Path for torment.

"They look really anxious!" Jiu Li had already relaxed; it could sense the star map beginning to transport them! These people can't catch up~

"Stop!"

"Stop!"

The rushing Formless Clan and Youxiong clan members all attacked the star map halo!

However it was useless; the starlight shot into the heavens, already having transported Shen Qingli, the two of them, and the three beasts upward.

Fearing mishap, Shen Qingli recalled Jiu Li and the others, herself tightly gripping Di Jin's hand.

"Shen Qingli!"

Outside the star map, someone actually could shout Shen Qingli's name!

Hearing it, she was utterly astonished, "Does anyone else know me?"

Di Jin had already frowned, instinctively looking toward the source of the voice!

He wanted to see clearly who was shouting Shen Qingli's name! How could they know her?

Damn it!

Shen Qingli!

Come back!

Outside the star chart, a person utterly unfamiliar to Shen Qingli roared and howled!

The starlight had gradually faded, and Shen Qingli and their group's silhouettes had already vanished from above the Wei clan.

Damn it! Let her get away!

Why didn't the Fifth clan come? Did the Wei clan not send them word?

Hmph! The Fifth clan puts on airs, why bother informing them! Damn it, letting Shen Qingli escape! The Grand Priest was truly spot‑on; the goddess he sacrificed for really does exist! Shen Qingli, indeed this person exists!

Both clans were hopeful and angry, only after a long while did they reluctantly disperse.

At that moment——

The moment the star chart appeared.

In fact, an ancient gaze was watching.

That was the Fifth clan's elder chief: "The Grand Priest's life‑sacrifice divination was indeed accurate. Too bad the Wei clan fell out with them, and the savior goddess departed."

"These idiots!" the clansmen beside him bowed respectfully, saying, "Fortunately, the clan chief's divine foresight means the passage will open soon! We'll be able to leave right away!"

"Not exactly stupid, we were too desperate, already having allied with evil gods, we can no longer walk the righteous path, only able to go down a dark road to the end." The Fifth clan chief sighed gloomily, his eyes the same eerie green as Zhao Yue's before.

"Chief, please. Everyone is waiting for you." The clansmen bowed again.

The Fifth clan chief withdrew his gaze, turned and entered the clan; the next moment——

Sheng Long Tian, within the ancestral grounds of the Changshui Shen clan, gloomy light ran rampant! Evil energy raged.

The so‑called passage of the Fifth clan actually led into the Changshui Shen clan! Moreover, the moment the evil energy appeared, the surrounding vitality and spiritual energy rapidly depleted! And that's not all…

The Shen clan guards outside the ancestral grounds instantly turned into skeletons.
