She is the Holy Daughter of Desire Sect, Chu Xuexin, a name famous in both the righteous and evil paths of Chongzhou.
"So it's Miss Chu, please come in quickly,"
At the same time, hearing the commotion, Di Xiu used his movement technique to appear in front of the mansion, his face bearing an enthusiastic smile.
"Uncle Di, how is Brother Chang doing?"
Chu Xuexin entered the mansion, her eyes showing a hint of worry.
As Di Xiu led Chu Xuexin to the quiet room where Chang Shiyang was recuperating, he said, "He's much better now, but because his Divine Soul is damaged, he still needs to rest for a few days."
"Divine Soul? To think that Su Jie would go so far as to harm the Primordial Spirit, can't even you do anything, Uncle Di?"
Chu Xuexin's brows were tightly knitted, and even though she was angry, her face was stunningly beautiful.
"We were indeed arrogant. The reputation of Qingzhou's number one genius is well-deserved,"
Di Xiu sighed, feeling somewhat embarrassed.
After all, he was of an older generation, and it was truly embarrassing to have been beaten by a youngster.
"This is too much; I will pay him a visit another day,"
Chu Xuexin quickened her pace, her delicate skirt fluttering like mist, as if she couldn't wait to see Chang Shiyang and check on his injuries.
Both Blood Demon Cave and Desire Sect were located in Chongzhou, and these two Demon Sects truly had generations of amicable relations. Moreover, in terms of scale and strength, Desire Sect was much stronger than Blood Demon Cave.
They say that one drop of semen is worth ten drops of blood. The cultivators of Blood Demon Cave practice the Blood Nether Demon Scripture, and their blood, rich in Spiritual Power, offers them substantial resistance against the Desire Sect's Yin supplementing Yang Charming Skills. In moderation, it can assist the female cultivators of Desire Sect in their cultivation.
And when the cauldrons captured by Desire Sect were squeezed dry, many would then be handed over to Blood Demon Cave, to extract their remaining vitality—an extraction in its most literal sense.
The cultivation of the Blood Nether Demon Scripture, absorbing the blood of more powerful individuals, aids in the progression of one's Cultivation.
Chu Xuexin and Chang Shiyang had met several years prior, and their relationship had developed into that of close friends who could talk about anything.
The door to the quiet room was pushed open, and Chu Xuexin's voice rang out softly, like an orchid echoing in an empty valley, the sound of a mountain spring flowing.
"Xue Xin, why are you here!"
Chang Shiyang, who had been meditating inside, opened his eyes and brightened at the sight of Chu Xuexin, promptly disabling the protective Formation.
"Uncle Di just told me. I did not expect Su Jie to be so ruthless. If I had known, I would not have discussed him in front of you,"
While speaking, Chu Xuexin took out a bottle of elixir and tenderly said, "This is the White Crane Soul Cleansing Pill, excellent for nourishing the Divine Soul and repairing its damage. You must recover soon, Brother Chang!"
"Su Jie, I will surely seek my revenge against him sooner or later,"
Chang Shiyang's forehead veins bulged at the mention of Su Jie's name.
His intention to test Su Jie came after a chat with Chu Xuexin when she had casually mentioned him. Chu Xuexin's praise of Su Jie made Chang Shiyang burn with jealousy, leading to the altercation that followed.
Chang Shiyang harbored affection for Chu Xuexin. Although she was from Desire Sect, she was like a lotus that rises untouched from the mud. Having been in the cultivation world for several years, there had never been any unsavory rumors about her. She kept herself pure and clean, completely different from the vulgar desire-filled women of Wan Hun Sect.
"Ah, it's all my fault. I didn't want any of this to happen; I'm the one who harmed you, Brother Chang."
Chu Xuexin, seeing how infuriated Chang Shiyang was, had a look of self-reproach in her eyes. Her beautiful face was like the most exquisite flower of spring, inadvertently stirring up others' compassion.
"It's not your fault, and it's not related to you. It was my own choice to seek out Su Jie; don't take the blame on yourself,"
Chang Shiyang reassured her repeatedly, holding her in comfort. Seeing Chu Xuexin's sorrowful expression, he felt an even deeper hatred for Su Jie, and at the same time, a secret satisfaction.
Chu Xuexin's concern for him—didn't that indicate she might have feelings for him as well?
"Brother... Brother Chang, you're holding me too tightly."
Chu Xuexin struggled slightly, her fair skin showing a faint blush. This shy, timid demeanor made Chang Shiyang's heart race.
Upon realizing what he had done, Chang Shiyang quickly let go, clearly indicating he had no other intentions.
He had never been so gentle with any other woman, not even with his own mother. But the woman before him was Chu Xuexin.
For Chang Shiyang, Chu Xuexin was a goddess to be admired from afar and not to be tarnished. He feared that any clumsy advances on his part might upset Chu Xuexin and incur her disgust, something he would regret immensely.
However, what Chang Shiyang did not see was the hint of a dark, cold smile at the corner of Chu Xuexin's lips, her eyes showing no warmth at all.
