Chapter 143: The Celestial Maiden Sect’s Trump Card

Furthermore, Ling Wanqing's disguise techniques had become increasingly superb; sometimes, if she didn't know Ling Wanqing so well, she wouldn't have been able to spot her.

Every time she went out, she would disguise herself as an ordinary person, the kind that no one would spare a second glance at in a crowd.

This also resulted in her reputation being far from what it used to be.

After all, she hadn't appeared in the Southern Region with her true appearance for a very, very long time.

Many people had begun to doubt Ling Wanqing, as they had never seen her.

She didn't care about these external matters and simply lived her own life well.

For Yue Xin, this was not a bad thing, but it couldn't be called a good thing either.

Now that Ling Wanqing had this personality, she wouldn't say much; let her do as she pleased, as long as she remained a part of the Celestial Maiden Sect, that was enough.

Being low-key was fine; currently, if she didn't say anything, no one would know that Ling Wanqing had already reached the Late Stage of Spirit Transformation, and they still thought their Celestial Maiden Sect's Peak Master Ling was still at the Late-Stage Nascent Soul Realm.

Not many people knew Ling Wanqing's true cultivation level.

That was fine too; this way, Ling Wanqing could serve as a trump card for their Celestial Maiden Sect.

Since she liked to stay at home and not go out anyway, just letting her hide away in the Celestial Maiden Sect was fine.

Yue Xin looked at Ling Wanqing. "I didn't come to ask you to deal with the Demon Race; I know you don't like fighting."

"I only came this time to catch up with you; it's been a long time since I've seen you in person."

"And while I'm at it, I'll tell you about some of our plans and the Demon Race intelligence we've gathered. You still need to be aware of these things."

Ling Wanqing nodded. Currently, she was the only one in the area where she stayed, and her disciple didn't come often either.

Her disciple was basically out cultivating to improve her cultivation level; the pressure Ye Lin and Li Yi had brought upon her was simply too great.

It caused her to not dare to rest for even a moment, all just to keep up with their pace.

Thinking back, Yun Ruyan had once defeated Ye Lin head-on, but that was the only time.

In the end, Ye Lin became someone who was invincible. She might not even be Ye Lin's match now, but she didn't care about such things.

The two sat down and began to chat about the Demon Clan members and the plans with other Sects.

At this moment, Leng Jiahang was on his way to the Liangshui Sect. On the road to the Liangshui Sect, he had also encountered a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator from the Myriad Swords Sect.

Hua Yan looked at Leng Jiahang. "I didn't expect the Profound Heaven Sect to send you this time. I thought it would be one of your seven Peak Lords."

"Perhaps the others were busy. I came because I also happened to want to meet these Demon Clan members."

"Alright, let's hurry over and take a look."

Hua Yan also sped up. "We might not necessarily have a chance to strike when we get there; perhaps by the time we arrive, others will have already resolved it. There hasn't been any news of a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator appearing yet."

"If the Demon Race's Nascent Soul Stage cultivators don't show themselves, these Golden Core Stage Demon Clan members can just serve as training opponents for them."

"As long as there is no danger to their lives, we can just watch."

Leng Jiahang nodded. If no Nascent Soul Stage cultivators came, this could indeed be done; other places without Nascent Soul Stage cultivators basically did the same thing.

But the Liangshui Sect was no ordinary place; there were four Nascent Soul Stage cultivators lying in ambush there.

Fortunately, he knew about it in advance, but he wouldn't tell Hua Yan now.

He thought he was going to provide backup, but he hadn't expected to be walking into a trap.

Hua Yan could already sense the aura of the Demon Clan members.

"Let's hurry over; it looks like they are fighting very intensely."

The two then sped forward at an extremely fast speed.

On the battlefield of the Liangshui Sect, it was clear that the Demon Clan members were at a disadvantage this time.

The Demon Clan members had all suffered significant injuries to varying degrees. The people from the Profound Heaven Sect had also been injured, but it was not as severe as those on the Demon Clan side; compared to the injuries the Demon Clan members suffered, they were much better off.

At the very least, they had more people than the Demon Clan, and their individual strength was not necessarily inferior to the Demon Clan members.

If they continued to fight like this, these few Demon Clan members would sooner or later be taken down by them.

The few Demon Clan members also knew that continuing to fight like this would be very unfavorable for them.

They could only wait for their reinforcements to arrive now.

But if they arrived too late, they wouldn't be able to hold on. If the Profound Heaven Sect and Myriad Swords Sect reinforcements arrived first, they would be finished.

They could only persist for a little while longer and see how the situation developed.

Just as they were considering their next move, their own reinforcements had also arrived.

Suddenly, they felt relieved; several more Golden Core Stage existences had arrived on their Demon Clan side.

Now, they had the advantage in numbers.

They had to seize this opportunity to finish the battle quickly. The other side's reinforcements should be arriving soon, so they needed to hurry and grasp this vacuum period.

The few people from the Profound Heaven Sect saw that victory was right before their eyes, but the Demon Clan members had suddenly received timely reinforcements. They hadn't expected them to be reinforced first.

This was troublesome; they didn't know when their own reinforcements would arrive.

In other regions, the Demon Clan members and various major Sects had also arrived one after another.

The situation on both sides was on the verge of breaking out, but there were no Nascent Soul Stage Demon Clan members appearing for the time being.

On the Liangshui Sect side, the Demon Clan members were also prepared to finish the battle quickly. Now that they had a significant advantage in numbers, these Sect members wouldn't be able to hold out for much longer.

At this moment, those four Nascent Soul Stage Demon Clan members had already appeared above the Liangshui Sect.

But they did not enter the fray immediately; the people below did not know that there were four Nascent Soul Stage Demon Clan members above them watching them.

The four of them were waiting for the people from the Profound Heaven Sect and Myriad Swords Sect to arrive.

In any case, they had learned that the major Sects had sent Nascent Soul Stage existences.

They just needed to lie in ambush here; going out now would just alert the enemy.

The battle below broke out immediately. At this time, the Liangshui Sect had been completely reduced to ruins; not a trace of any building could be seen, and the ground and the surrounding area were already riddled with holes.

Countless Spells rose up on the battlefield.

Soon, the few people from the Profound Heaven Sect were unable to hold on.

But just at this moment, a powerful aura rushed towards them.

The few people from the Myriad Swords Sect immediately felt relieved; they were very familiar with this powerful aura.

It was their Myriad Swords Sect's Peak Lord Hua. This was a Nascent Soul Stage expert; they hadn't expected him to be the one to come for reinforcements. Now it was great; not a single one of these Demon Clan members would be able to escape.

This powerful aura was not concealed at all and rushed straight at the Demon Clan members. Now, the Demon Clan members were instantly broken out in a cold sweat; a Nascent Soul Stage existence had actually arrived.

They were finished now; those of them at the Golden Core Stage were not even worth looking at by others.

At this moment, Han Ting had also arrived at the battlefield. The people on this side saw Han Ting and her group arrive to reinforce them and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Han Shi, however, was not in a hurry to reveal himself; after all, he still needed to let Han Ting fight against the Demon Clan members to gain some combat experience.

Just as Han Ting was fighting the Demon Clan members below, Han Shi also noticed the aura of a Demon Clan member, and it was a Nascent Soul Stage Demon, truly rushing towards their side.

And the Demon Clan members also sensed Han Shi's aura, so they didn't hesitate to crush their Jade Slip.

Jiang Cheng received the message, looked into the distance, and then disappeared from where he stood.
