Chapter 154 - Will you become my cauldron?

Grasping Evil

Will you become my cauldron?

The rain was birthed from the heavens and died upon descending to earth. The process in the middle was the life of the rain.

This life was infused with three types of domain by Ning Fan, which were killing, defying and solitude.

The Divine Rain Intent was an Eighth-Grade Divine Intent. But this Divine Intent which was infused with three types of domain, hence it is almost comparable to a common Seventh-Grade Divine Intent.

As for the man covered with crimson scales‘ Ninth Demonic Intent — Demonic Carp Intent, it was only infused with a blood-colored killing intent and nothing more. Its grade was extremely lacking compared to Ning Fan Divine Intent.

Almost instantly, the crimson-scaled man’s shadow was half-dissolved in the rain. But yet he still managed to force his body through the Purple Light Formation.

He was extremely shaken that a mere Harmonious Spirit Realm cultivator like Ning Fan was able to master an Eighth-Grade Divine Intent!

Those that are able to comprehend an Eighth-Grade Divine Intent were without a doubt, have the talent to become a Void Refinement Realm expert! If there were enough opportunity, they could even achieve the Void Fragmentation Realm!

These individuals were not to be trifled with. Even a Spirit Severing Demon General such as himself would have to regard them as their archenemy!

The crimson-scaled man became certain within just a thought… The moment he left this place and handled all the trivial matters, he would certainly send his true body to kill Ning Fan! This boy must not be left alive!

Not even a Nascent Level Intermediate-Grade Grand Formation was able to hinder this man’s advance as he forcefully broke out of the formation.

He escaped but Ning Fan did not went after him but only… sneered.

In the very moment of his departure, he looked deeply at Ning Fan. As if to memorize Ning Fan’s features for the sake of sending out assassins in the future.

“You harmed my concubine today, but in the near future it shall be you who will die!”

“I’ve said it before, you will not be able to escape!” Ning Fan did not go after him because there was no need to do so!

The crimson-scaled man broke out of the formation and were greeted with Yin Suqiu’s existence who had been waiting all along. She held the crystal bracelet and formed it into a crystal ring that was covered with golden light and black shadows. That ring was then struck towards the crimson-scaled man!

He was caught by surprise and was ambushed by Yin Suqiu. But when he saw Suqiu was just a peak Gold Core Realm expert and the ring treasure was merely High-Grade, he did not put much thought on the ambush anymore.

Even those Supreme-Grade treasures were unable to injure his Demonic Intent Shadow, not to mention a mere High-Grade.

But his expression changed drastically when the bracelet hit his body.

The golden light and black shadows that came from the ring looked like it had a wisp of might from heaven and earth. The moment it touched his shadow, it immediately created a loud bang that could shake even mountains and rivers!

The crimson-scaled man let out a pained grunt, with the blood scales that covered his body shattered by Suqiu’s strike. More than half of his shadow had disappeared from just this attack.

He laughed madly and looked at Ning Fan with extreme anger and hatred.

He did not know what the name of the ring treasure was and what divine abilities it had. But he could feel a shred of qi inside treasure. Therefore, this ring must have been refined by Ning Fan and this girl was also placed here by him to ambush him.

“Good! Good! You’ve managed to injure me today, you can now die with pride on the day you die !”

“Li Ban…”

Ning Fan’s gaze sharpen. Looks like I’ve offended a powerful guy…

I’ve offended him! So, what!

“Obliterate!”

Ning Fan pointed at his glabella and the Separation Slayer Sword flew out like a shooting star, the starlight casting a trail in midair. It ruthlessly cut the crimson-scaled man’s Demonic Intent Shadow and obliterated him into pieces.

Now the crisis at hand was finally resolved.

His fleeing light flashed and caught the weakened demon into his grasp. The demon then immediately cursed.

“You dare harm Lord Li Ban! I’ll go all out with you!”

“Hmmph!”

Ning Fan harrumphed and used the Yin Plucking Finger on the girl’s soft breast. It thoroughly put her into a state of unconsciousness and was put into the Cauldron Ring.

The reason that he did not kill the demon was because she was an excellent cauldron and the blood rune on her glabella could be taken away with a secret art and be used as one of his trump cards.

The crimson-scaled man’s mark was wiped away from the blood rune. The only thing left behind was the power of single strike of a Spirit Severing Realm cultivator… Those peak Nascent Soul Realm ‘Great Cultivators’ could even be injured by Ning Fan with this item.

Ning Fan took back the remaining Immortal Jade that were left in the eye of the Purple Light Formation after meeting up with Suqiu. They quickly retreated before the Song Country’s cultivators came to investigate.

On their journey, Yin Suqiu could not contain her surprise anymore.

The Nascent Soul Demon was unexpectedly easily subdued by Ning Fan using both Body Refining Technique and Bewitching Art.

Lastly, that crimson-scaled man gave Suqiu a terrible sense of danger. But that same man was also unexpectedly eliminated by Ning Fan.

The ring treasure that was given by Ning Fan managed to injure the crimson-scaled man with a single strike. The power of the ring had been also been able to bring forth the aura of the heaven and earth. It was one of the most powerful magical treasure she had seen. Even some Supreme-Grade magical treasure were unable to bring forth the aura of heaven and earth.

Ning Fan gave me such a precious magical treasure…

It was as if this magical treasure was just refined as there was still Ning Fan’s qi lingering within… This treasure had been refined personally by Ning Fan.

“Did he refine this magical treasure for me in the past month of his absence…”Yin Suqiu’s heart raised an unusual thought that was hard to describe.

Both her and Ning Fan soared like two rainbow light towards the border of the North Song Country. Her heart felt more and more complicated.

“Why did you save me?” She asked softly without the usual prestige of an old ancestor.

“I said that I’ll protect you, did you think it was just a joke?”

“This bracelet…”

“This bracelet is be called ‘Heaven and Earth Ring’ and was refined by me. It is my compensation for your efforts in saving Ning City and for the destroyed water ring.”

“Isn’t this compensation too over the top…” Yin Suqiu said hesitantly.

“You don’t want it?” Ning Fan’s eyelid twitches.

“N… no.” Yin Suqiu held the Crystal Bracelet tight within her hands. She liked the bracelet very much.

Both of them became silent. They then met with Jing Zhuo at the border of North Song Country’s formation three days later.

After Ning Fan left, there were old monsters coming one after another into West Song Country’s Bloody Flower Valley. All of them expressed a shocking expression after they saw the magic force qi that were left in place.

It really was a Nascent Level magic fight… But this place had no known Nascent Soul Old Monsters.

The demon is nowhere to be seen and the mysterious Nascent Soul Realm expert could not be found… Could he have already left Song Country?

This type of alertness had continued on for several months. The old monsters of Song Country all let out a sigh of relief when they found out that the demon did not make any moves for the past few months.

Song Country’s crisis had finally been resolved. But it was a pity that… none of their wives and children could be saved…

But compared to the total destruction of Song Country, this result turned out to be the best out of the worst-case scenarios…

“…”

The Seven Apricot Ship continued on their voyage towards Zheng Country after meeting up with Jing Zhuo.

Zheng Country was a low-ranked cultivator country and was similar to Song Country. The sizes of the countries were also similar.

It was infested by demons, but they were all low-ranked demons incomparable to the powerful Nascent Soul Demon.

But the swarm of demons had made Zheng Country uneasy and were on high alert. The Seven Apricot ship was only allowed to pass after it was searched by several Zheng Country’s Gold Core Realm old ancestors and was confirmed to be not hostile.

Under the sunset… five months had passed since the ship had left Ning City. They had stayed too long in Song Country…

“Sorry… I’ve taken up much of your time.” Yin Suqiu held a jade flute and stood behind Ning Fan while her pale lips pursed lightly.

“No problem, It’s not like I didn’t gain anything for the past month… ”

He could have captured the demon in a flash, but he chose not to do so. He wanted to help fulfill Yin Suqiu’s Dao and it was this intention that moved her.

He gave her the chance to personally capture the demon and even refined the Heaven and Earth Ring for her, allowing her to deliver a decisive strike unto the crimson-scaled man.

All of it was for the sake of fulfillment. Hence, the one-month delay in Song Country couldn’t be considered fruitless.

After she met with the Song Country’s Righteous Sects, Ning Fan went to rob the Seven Great Evil Sect of Song Country in a single night!

One cauldron strike to break the formation, another to smash the sect, and a third to cause the mountain to collapse!

He didn’t do it for revenge, but merely for the sake of money. He demanded Spirit Ores and Immortal Jade upon reaching each sect.

His methods were so powerful that they went far beyond the level the Song Country’s Gold Core Devils could fathom. Each and every one of them obediently offered up the items that Ning Fan requested after being beaten.

The Spirit Ores were essential for the refinement of the Heaven and Earth Ring. As for the Immortal Jade, the journey towards the Endless Sea required a lot of resources, so having more Immortal Jade would be for the better.

The amount of Immortal Jade he had received from the seven great evil sects was nearing ten thousand.

Aside from the Immortal Jade, his biggest reward was the Nascent Soul Realm Demon and those Song female cultivators.

The Nascent Soul Realm Demon was essential to advance to the second level of Yin Yang Transformation. Although he couldn’t pluck the demon right now, but after forming his Gold Core in the Endless Sea in the future, plucking this demon would allow his cultivation base to improve greatly.

As for those Song female cultivators, some of them were still virgins while a few of them already had their virginity stolen by the demon. But he didn’t care one bit since the demon herself had become his cauldron, as he had no qualms on cauldrons having ‘fun’ with each other.

Ning Fan’s help in fulfilling her Dao moved Suqiu. But the her stubborn self was still unsatisfied with the way Ning Fan  handled some things.

Yes, very dissatisfied.

“Why didn’t you kill that demon… And why haven’t you released those Song female cultivators…” She looked at Ning Fan strangely and had a few guesses within her heart.

Don’t tell me that he’s going to make all those girls into his cauldrons… and have sexual intercourse with them… plucking their cultivation… his cultivation method is the Dual Cultivation Devil Technique after all.

“Why do you even try to ask, when you’ve already guessed it?” Ning Fan smiled without turning his body towards her.

“You! Why don’t you let them go?” Yin Suqiu anxiously said.

“Let go? Let go who? The demon? Should I let her go so that she can seek the Spirit Severing Demon General to kill me? Oh, you’re talking about those Song female cultivators… why should I let them go? ”

“For no other reason! Shouldn’t you release them once you’ve saved them, isn’t that how it should be?!”

“… ”

“But if I let them go, I’ll be the one in danger… They already saw me saving you then tell me, could I really let them go? After giving them their freedom, wouldn’t they tell their husbands or fathers that the Nascent Soul cultivator who fought against the demon was me, a Yue country cultivator? Or perhaps, if my enemies caught wind of this info and somehow exploit it… don’t you have to see me die?”

“Unwilling… You! How could you confuse me with your words!”

Her cheeks blushed, and the word ‘unwilling’ seemingly revealed the inner feelings within her heart. She would not have said it through her mouth, if it weren’t for Ning Fan who lead her to say such words.

But after carefully considering, she understood his actions.

He definitely cannot release those Song female cultivators, what could I do if any misfortune were to befall upon him…? Those Song cultivators claim themselves as righteous, but they are pretentious people. They might even harbor malicious intent towards Ning Fan.

She was not stupid but just too stubborn…

Not releasing them is not a problem for me. But letting him pluck all those female cultivators is a whole different matter. All of them came from prestigious sects with the weaker ones being Harmonious Spirit Realm experts while the stronger bunch were at the Gold Core Realm. These are excellent cauldrons for Ning Fan… She was really afraid that he would go ‘thirsty’ and pluck all of them.

They were plucked by the demon and lost their virginity, but their chastity were yet to be taken. If they were ‘eaten’ by him, these girls would really lose everything…

“You not releasing them, is fine with me. But you cannot pluck them!” Qin Suqiu said with unshakeable resolve.

“Where else could I find such good cauldrons landing easily on my lap, isn’t it such a pity?” Ning Fan teasingly said.

“If you were to touch them, I will then…”

“You will then what?” Ning Fan turned around and delightedly looked at Suqiu’s anxious expression.

Her heart shook and felt upset inside. She realized she did not have anything to threaten him.

It’s not like I’m anything important to him, plus I would not need to pay a single penny for the entire journey towards the Endless Sea because of him.

It looks like I do not have anything against him but he has something to threaten me.

She became speechless and bit her lips lightly with her eyes looking sad.

She suddenly could not understand why she wanted to prevent Ning Fan on plucking those girls.

Was it merely for the perseverance of her righteous path…? Or was she simply unwilling to see Ning Fan having affairs with a lot of women?

I can’t understand…

Seeing a Yue Old Ancestor-Grade figure being questioned without being able to talk back, Ning Fan couldn’t help but laugh and said with a comforting tone.

“Relax, I will not pluck them. But I cannot let them go.”

It was not essential for him to have these mere Harmonious Spirit Realm and Gold Core Realm female cultivators that had already lost their Primordial Yin.

A single Nascent Soul Realm demon was more than enough!

Plus, he was unwilling to see Suqiu feel down on such a small matter.

Perhaps, it was not as simple as just a feeling of gratitude towards this woman.

There’s respect on top of gratitude.

Perhaps even a bit of admiration on top of that respect.  

Ning Fan agreed to let those cultivators off, making Suqiu feel slightly moved. But a single word from him changed that into boundless anger and shame immediately.

“I won’t be able to pluck them. Thus, I’ll be lacking cauldrons to cultivate with. How should I go about it? How about you become my cauldron?”

“Don’t even think about it!”

“Is it? Well then, why don’t you blow the flute for me.” Ning Fan laughingly said, he did not use the word “perform”, hence his words had a different meaning.

“Okay, this much is acceptable!” Suqiu quickly agreed and breathed out a sigh of relief. She was genuinely scared that he would pluck her.

Don’t look at how physically small he is, but once he get serious, his power is extremely terrifying… if he were to come on strong, I would have no means to defend against him…

Meanwhile, Yin Suqiu did not know that she was sexually harassed verbally again by Ning Fan. (blowing the flute, has the same meaning as fellatio)

The journey in Zheng Country lasted for four and half months. Ning Fan was busy cultivating in that period of time.

Song Country, Zheng Country, Wei Country, then… the Great Jin Country!

After passing through four Cultivation Country, getting through the Great Jin’s teleportation formation towards the Ocean Country and finally arrives at/ reaching the Endless Sea.

He could not waste anymore time in this journey… may not…
