Chapter 2242: Guiyuan Sacred Martial Arts

What the hell? Did she say something wrong?

Ning Shu’s soul gradually assimilated into the target’s soul. She sat up and shook her head, feeling a little dizzy.

This was a stone room, but the place was very luxurious. There were red silk curtains on the windows, a dressing table, and a wardrobe. That was not all. A faint white smoke from the exquisite incense burner wafted up, filling it with a light, refreshing scent.

Ning Shu kneaded her temple. She was feeling a little light-headed as she began receiving the storyline.

This story revolved around a rare martial arts book. Yes, this was a world of martial arts. When martial arts developed to its peak, it often started developing in the direction of immortal cultivation.

A rare book called ‘Guiyuan Sacred Martial Arts’ was rumored to allow its cultivators to live forever and become immortal.

People cultivated to make themselves stronger and extend their lifespans, going against the natural order of the world. As a result, everyone, good or evil, was competing for Guiyuan Sacred Martial Arts.

Once someone cultivated this technique, not only would they have strong power, but they could also become immortal. It really made people go crazy over it.

The original host’s name was Hong Ye. She was the sister of the leader of the Sacred Demonic Cult, Ye Hua. According to those righteous people, Hong Ye was a temptress.

This story revolved around a righteous young man going undercover in a demonic sect. His purpose was naturally to get ‘Guiyuan Sacred Martial Arts.’

This kind of heaven-defying martial arts book had fallen into the hands of a demonic sect. If left alone, there would surely be rivers of blood flowing in the future.

To steal the book, the righteous sects sent a young man to sneak into the Sacred Demonic Cult and gave the young man the identity of an orphan whose whole family was killed.

Hong Ye’s father, the former leader, brought him back to the Sacred Demonic Cult.

Hence, Hong Ye and Qi Yi, the protagonist of this story, could be regarded as childhood sweethearts. Qi Yi grew more handsome and confident as he got older. In this demonic sect, he was known as the jade-faced young master.

The more beautiful things were, the more poisonous they would be. Hong Ye was a young girl who yearned for love and was naturally attracted to this pretty boy.

Qi Yi pretended to become friends with Hong Ye to find out about the whereabouts of ‘Guiyuan Sacred Martial Arts.’

Qi Yi told Hong Ye that if he could obtain ‘Guiyuan Sacred Martial Arts’ and cultivate it, he would be able to be together with the one he liked forever.

Hong Ye thought that the person he wanted to be with was her. Therefore, she actively tried to help Qi Yi find the book. Her elder brother was the leader of the Sacred Demonic Cult, so her status and privileges were quite high. She used all her means and resources to help him find the book.

When her elder brother found out, he ordered eighteen tortures to punish the traitor. However, Hong Ye refused to mend her ways and even shoved the book into Qi Yi’s hands. She then stalled for time to aid his escape.

Ye Hua was so angry that he wanted to kill his sister right then and there. He had raised his hand, but in the end, she was his only living relative left.

But still, Hong Ye was locked in her house by her brother and was not allowed to step out of the room.

Mei Wu, who had been protecting Hong Ye since she was a child, pleaded with Ye Hua for leniency every day and asked him to release Hong Ye, guaranteeing that Hong Ye would not commit such mistakes again.

However, Ye Hua was busy looking for Qi Yi now. He had no time to look after his rebellious sister. She was such a selfish, unreasonable person who didn’t seem to care about her family at all. The only reason he didn’t kill her was out of respect for their dead father.

Mei Wu brought new things to Hong Ye every day, hoping that she would be happy. But Hong Ye didn’t take Mei Wu’s care to heart at all. She only looked forward to Qi Yi’s return. He would come to save her like a knight in shining armor.

Qi Yi did indeed come back, but he brought a group of renowned righteous sects to slaughter the entire Sacred Demonic Cult.

So many of her sect members fell in front of her one by one. Qi Yi stood among them, shining brightly, his figure extremely tall.

Her elder brother finally took a forbidden drug and burst out his greatest strength, squeezing out every last morsel of his potential. The meridians all over his body then ruptured.

All the members of the Sacred Demonic Cult were in despair. They only wanted to help the leader escape and couldn’t care less about Hong Ye.

The Sacred Demonic Cult shunned Hong Ye, while from the perspective of the righteous sects, she was a temptress. She was left all alone in this world.

Qi Yi even wanted to kill Hong Ye with his own hands, however, Mei Wu took the blow for Hong Ye and the blade ruthlessly pierced through his body.

Mei Wu vomited blood and urged Hong Ye to leave quickly.

Hong Ye was so scared by the series of events that it felt like her soul had left her body. She blankly watched Qi Yi walking towards her like a demon. The sword in his hand was covered with blood, dripping drop by drop along the blade to the ground.
