Daoist Competition-Chapter 1044 - 262: Elder Qi

When Zhang Yan spoke this sentence, he kept his eyes fixed on the young girl’s eyes.

In fact, he did not know whether this girl had accomplices within the mountain gate; it was only after the incident with the Demon Sect Elder Cai De Yan that he realized the Demon Sect cultivators had the ability to capture divine souls. Therefore, he suspected there was more than one person within the gate, and thus he decided to deceive her. But this girl’s identity and cultivation were both not high, so he had no expectations.

However, the young girl’s expression at that moment was slightly flustered, and then immediately became very calm.

This extremely subtle change immediately caught Zhang Yan’s attention.

The young girl suddenly laughed like a silver bell and cast a charming glance, saying, "Brother Yu here takes good care of this young girl on regular days."

Yu Huo’s face instantly turned red. This girl was beautiful, with a shy temperament and good aptitude, which he greatly admired. He heard the teacher wanted to take her as a concubine, and had suffered for this for a long time. During the pursuit just now, he was feeling the mix with a sense of vengeance.

Zhang Yan thought that encountering this matter, he could not simply walk away, so he said to Yu Huo, "Take me to see your family master."

Yu Huo dared not disobey and had to initiate Xuan Guang and lead the way ahead.

As soon as he walked a few steps, Zhang Yan waved his sleeve, and a Water Element True Light flashed by, sweeping him in, then raised his hand to point, a sword light flew out, and before the girl could react, it entered through her ear cavity, instantly harvesting her vitality.

After a moment, a Primordial Spirit floated out from the body. Zhang Yan took out the Warm and Gentle Pill Jade, urged it with mana, and the Primordial Spirit was drawn into it. He stored the jade away and said to the still dazed Jing You, "You go occupy her shell."

Jing You dared not disobey, turned within the girl’s ear cavity, and moments later, the girl rose and bowed gracefully, shyly saying, "Greetings Master."

Zhang Yan saw her mimicry and expression extremely lifelike and couldn’t help but nod in satisfaction. With a wave of his hand, Yu Huo rolled out again, still dazed from his walk in the Water Element True Light.

Zhang Yan spread his sleeves, riding clouds and mist, taking the two northward rapidly. His tunneling speed was incredibly fast, and Yu Huo barely recovered when he heard a voice by his ear asking, "Is it here?" 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Yu Huo looked down and saw a long, snake-like island lying on the water, lush with vegetation, teeming with life, exactly his own Cave Mansion, surprising with joy, he did not expect in such a short period to have returned here, and he shouted, "Yes, it’s here."

Mo Tianhua did not originally live here; it was only after Refining Medicine and Condensing Pills that his master, Elder Qi, granted him this Spirit Island. But after moving, for some reason, he had not been able to break through the Shell Barrier, and his Daoist Cultivation had remained stagnant for decades.

Due to the commotion overhead, the disciples on the island immediately took notice, and a figure of a graceful woman approached from afar. Initially, there was some wariness; seeing Zhang Yan, she accelerated her tunneling speed and greeted him with a salute, saying, "Mo Ying greets Uncle Zhang."

Zhang Yan recognized her as Mo Tianhua’s niece, the leader when she joined the small demon cave for cultivation, and spoke gently, "Nephew, there’s no need for such formality; is your uncle here?"

Mo Ying’s expression darkened, "Uncle was afflicted by that magic potion and remains in a sorcery-induced sleep."

Zhang Yan nodded, believing the Mo family did not want this news to spread, or else they would have invited Elder Qi to undo the potion.

Upon hearing that this elder had a volatile temperament, should he know of this matter, even if Mo Tianhua woke up, it might not necessarily be a good thing.

Fortunately, although the secret medicine was fierce, the Demon Sect girl did not aim to take Mo Tianhua’s life right away, intending to act once back at the gate; otherwise, he might have been unable to escape death.

Yu Huo spoke up, "Senior Sister, little brother fortunately met Uncle Zhang on the road, and only with his help were we able to capture the demoness. It should not be difficult for her to revive Master."

The girl, played by Jing You, sneered, "Why should I step in to save him? I am already on a dead-end. Better to drag someone down with me."

Mo Ying looked at her and sighed, "Mei Yi, I have treated you well in the past, can you show me some favor and save Uncle."

The girl turned her head away without saying anything.

Seeing Jing You perform so realistically that even those who spent long times together could not identify the flaw, Zhang Yan was quite impressed. However, he believed Mo Tianhua would be safe; otherwise, catching and bringing her back would have been in vain, and so he said, "No rush. Who is in charge on your island now?"
