Extra: The Valley of Unfeeling (V)

Duan Feng had been the Sect Master for so many years, and she still had some direct subordinates.

She arranged for someone to send Jue Ran and Zhongli Mei to the dungeon, then her gaze swept sharply around.

"Listen up, everyone! From today onwards, I am the Sect Leader of Jueqing Valley, and everyone must obey my orders."

"I refuse! I only recognize Sect Master Jue Ran!"

A Great Ascension Stage Disciple expressed his defiance, but just as he stepped forward, a flash of sword light appeared before him, and the Black-Clothed Man sliced him in half with a single sword stroke, completely eradicating his body and spirit.

There was no sound, everything could even be said to be silent, but at this moment, silence was more powerful than words; this move completely intimidated everyone present.

Whether it was Jueqing Valley or the Cultivation World, strength had always been revered.

And now, Duan Feng was at the Early Stage of Undergoing Tribulation, making her the strongest in the entire Sect.

Not to mention that incredibly powerful Black-Clothed Man—no one knew what level his strength had reached.

Even though many people were unconvinced, at this moment, they dared not say anything more.

Since Sect Master Jue Ran and Zhongli Mei were both imprisoned, what could they do?

Stepping forward would only bring disaster upon themselves.

"Is no one opposing? So it's settled then?"

A smug smile played on Duan Feng's lips.

"Guard the dungeon well.

If those two escape, I'll hold you accountable."

After speaking, she turned and walked into the Sect, entering a secret room with Fu Haitao and the other two.

After closing the door, she turned to look at the Black-Clothed Man.

"Husband, thankfully you arrived in time, otherwise this trouble would have been huge!"

Before the Black-Clothed Man could speak, Fu Haitao impatiently blurted out, "Father, why didn't you kill Jue Ran and Zhongli Mei? Why did you let those two little sluts escape?"

"Useless fellow, why don't you use your brain more?"

The Black-Clothed Man glared at him.

"Jue Ran and Zhongli Mei are both Ye Bufan's people, and those two Little girls are his biological daughters.

If we were to kill them openly like that, I'm afraid none of us could bear the consequences."

"Ye Bufan, Ye Bufan, I really don't know what's so great about him.

He hasn't been seen for so many years, I guess he might have died in some corner somewhere."

Fu Haitao pouted.

"What Immortal Saint Emperor? I think it's just made up to scare people.

Who has ever seen how powerful he is?

If he were as strong as the legends say, how could he not show his face for over twenty years?"

The Black-Clothed Man said, "There's a possibility of what you said, but it's still better to be careful."

Fu Haitao's face was filled with urgency.

"Father, are we just going to let those two little sluts go?

And what about Jue Ran and Zhongli Mei, those two old dogs?

How can Mother secure her position as Sect Master if they aren't killed?

There are still many people in the Sect who are loyal to them.

Furthermore, if that 'Ye' fellow truly has some abilities, we've already torn off our masks with him.

Even if we let these people go, it's useless; it will only bring us trouble."

"Who said we're letting them go!"

A cold glint flashed in the Black-Clothed Man's eyes.

"All these people must die, but not in plain sight.

We will kill them, but silently, without anyone discovering it."

Fu Haitao was a bit confused.

"Father, what do you mean?"

Duan Feng said, "Can't you see? Your father deliberately let those two Little girls go.

What can they do after they leave?

They'll definitely come back to rescue people.

Although I've taken over Jueqing Valley again, many people are not convinced and even side with Jue Ran.

As long as the three of us don't interfere, they will inevitably secretly let them go."

As she spoke, Fu Haitao's eyes instantly lit up.

"I understand!

If Jue Ran and Zhongli Mei are rescued, the entire Sect will know, and then their disappearance will have nothing to do with us.

Father's plan is truly brilliant!"

The Black-Clothed Man gave a cold smile.

"Jue Ran and Zhongli Mei must die.

As for those two Little girls, I'll catch them for you then.

You can do whatever you want with them, just kill them in the end."

Ten thousand li away from Jueqing Valley, Ye Luoshan stopped and looked at Ye Yaomei hesitantly.

"Sister, is it a bit unrighteous for us to just run away like this?"

"You're still young, don't be impulsive about some things.

You need to use your brain more."

Ye Yaomei said, "That sneaky guy is too strong; even I am no match for him.

What if we stayed?

Not only would Jue Ran and Zhongli Mei be captured by them, but we wouldn't be able to escape either.

Where there's life, there's hope.

If we were all wiped out, then it would truly be over.

Now, Sect Master Jue Ran has sacrificed herself for our escape.

We must seize this opportunity so that we can go back and rescue them."

Ye Luoshan's eyes lit up, and her previous guilt vanished.

"Sister means we're going back to save them?"

"Of course.

How could descendants of our Ye family be ungrateful?

If we really abandoned Sect Master Jue Ran and Zhongli Mei and ran away, Father would surely break our legs."

Ye Yaomei said, "We'll go back now, but we must be careful and hide our Qi perfectly."

After speaking, she began to circulate the Heaven-Defying invisibility Cultivation Technique passed down by Ye Bufan, and she stealthily led Ye Luoshan back.

The atmosphere in Jueqing Valley was somewhat strange now.

Although Duan Feng had temporarily suppressed everyone and ascended to the position of Sect Master, the people below had different mindsets, each harboring their own little thoughts.

Relying on the Heaven-Defying invisibility Cultivation Technique, the two searched little by little, finally finding the location of the dungeon at midnight.

Compared to other places, the defense here was much tighter; the four guards at the entrance were all powerful Void Tempering Stage cultivators.

However, these people were all distracted, closing their eyes and dozing off, completely half-hearted in their duties.

This made things much easier.

The two slowly approached, then easily sealed the acupoints of the four people and quietly snuck into the dungeon.

Everything went more smoothly than expected.

There weren't many people locked up in the cells.

They quietly subdued several more guards and found Jue Ran and Zhongli Mei in a cell on the lowest level.

The two had their cultivation sealed and were originally leaning against each other.

When they saw the two girls, their expressions suddenly changed, and they sprang up.

Zhongli Mei urgently cried out, "My two Young Misses, why are you here instead of running away quickly? Hurry up and leave, don't worry about us!"

Jue Ran followed, saying, "That's right, my two Young Misses, hurry up and leave, go back and find Medical Immortal Ye Yixian, otherwise it will be troublesome if you fall into that person's hands!"

"Don't worry, no one discovered us.

If we're leaving, we're leaving together."

Ye Yaomei said as she opened the cell door.

After entering, she quickly unsealed the acupoints of the two.

"Let's go!"

She called out.

At this point, Jue Ran and Zhongli Mei no longer refused, and the four prepared to leave.

But at this moment, Ye Luoshan looked at the opposite wall, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes.

"Why is there a hidden Formation here?"

Her strength was not as good as Ye Yaomei's, but in terms of Formation, she had inherited half of Ye Bufan's true teachings.

The dungeon originally had some defensive Formations, but they were useless in front of her, which was why she had arrived here so smoothly.

When she said this, even Jue Ran was full of surprise.

She had been the Sect Master for over twenty years, yet she didn't know there was a hidden Formation in the dungeon, nor did she know what was inside.

Hearing her words, Ye Yaomei's eyes instantly lit up.

"Could it be that someone hid some treasure here?

Let's go in and take a look!"
