The Aloof Lord's Mysterious Wife-Chapter 900: Asura of the Demon Clan Never Bows to Anyone Outside the Royal Family

Cinian originally had no intention of revealing Nanli’s privacy, but at this moment, he had to defend her name. He spoke coldly, "Half true, half false! Master Nanli is not incapable of defeating those few. It’s just that she and the Celestial Sovereign jointly repaired the Demon Ruin crack, which caused her divine power to be weakened!"

Upon hearing this, Ximen Chuan felt even more sour inside. He curled his lips and said, "So she’s quite magnanimous, huh? The entire Immortal World only remembers the contributions of Jifeng Celestial Sovereign, where does it acknowledge that she also played a part in repairing the Demon Ruin?"

Chu Yang, however, understood Nanli’s character well and said, "Sixth sister doesn’t care about these empty reputations. Back then, as a deity, she surely believed it was her duty to do so."

Ximen Chuan lowered his eyes and muttered two words: "Foolish, she’s truly foolish... No wonder Qingwu called her stupid until his dying breath." He couldn’t help but glance at Yun Yubai, his eyes filled with a piercing gaze. That was her blood and inner pill... It was quite a bargain for Yun Yubai. If it had been him, Nanli would definitely not have used her own power to save him.

Cinian, thinking about Nanli having already lost one Glassy Bottle, couldn’t help but feel sad. He nodded in agreement: "Indeed, Master Nanli never revealed herself back then; she simply didn’t care about these empty reputations. But that doesn’t mean..." He lowered his head and stared at Yan Luo, "you can slander Master Nanli!"

Yan Luo had gone mad; her eyes were filled with resentment and ferocity. "Cinian! What are you being so righteous about? The Spirit Tree flourishes, don’t you benefit from it too? You should be more polite to me!"

Seeing Yan Luo’s monstrous appearance, Cinian, as a Buddhist cultivator, actually felt disdain towards her. However, her repeated nonsensical words and insults were too much even for a monk to endure. He unleashed a Demonic Subjugation Seal. freёnovelkiss.com

Yan Luo’s Demon Core shattered completely within her body. The pain was unbearable. It felt as if her body was being torn apart. She curled up on the ground, vomiting several mouthfuls of blood, and was too weak to speak.

Cinian straightened his sleeves and said, "This favor should be remembered as bestowed by Master Nanli. Qingwu, Valley Lord Yang, Palace Master Du, Ji Chengyi, Yan Buxiu, and their wicked disciple Shanhai—all of them were vicious individuals. I wish I could grind them into minced meat! If you utter another word of nonsense, I will show no mercy."

At this moment, Crimson Glow Peak Master finally believed that her Sect Leader had truly committed such heinous acts. She was not particularly close to Nanli, and her sense of guilt was minimal. As Yan Luo had said, they were all beneficiaries...

However, as cultivators, to act so ungrateful and ruthlessly cruel was truly unforgivable. Moreover, the person in question was her own eldest master brother. Nanli had killed two of her fellow disciples in a row; it would be a lie to say she didn’t harbor resentment. But now that she knew the truth, she could only sigh, "Well, it seems the Sect Leader and the others deserved their fate."

She was also one of the beneficiaries. Speaking more high-sounding words would make her appear pretentious and ungrateful. Now, she could only hope that Nanli and the Celestial Sovereign would successfully retrieve the Glassy Bottle.

Jialan Celestial Mountain.

The ancestor of the Jialan lineage was indeed an immortal. However, after the great battle between immortals and demons, this immortal’s spiritual power was severely diminished. His status was not high, and Jialan was his immortal residence, so it didn’t matter whether it sank or not. Before he ascended, he had descendants. After passing on everything to them, the immortal also perished. Because of this inheritance, Jialan has always been superior to other sects in the Immortal World. The Venerable Master of the Immortal World has always come from Jialan.

Later, when Siheng was born, he reached the Great Achievement stage at a very young age, which further solidified Jialan Celestial Mountain’s unshakable position. However, Jialan is different from other sects. Jialan emphasizes bloodline inheritance, and its successive Venerable Masters never take on disciples. But the elders can take indoor disciples. However, because Jialan’s rules are strict and the requirements are not low, whether it is inner or outer disciples, their numbers are very small.

However, in this thousand years when Siheng was not present, Qingwu forgot the teachings passed down by Jialan and actually took on many outer disciples. When Nanli and Siheng arrived, most of those outer disciples with low cultivation were either dead or injured.

They headed straight for the Spirit Tree. Qingwu had already set an ambush near the Spirit Tree, letting an elder poison the Glassy Bottle according to the situation. At this moment, that elder was already dead. The poison was still in his hand. The man was dressed in a black robe and was not very tall.

When Qing Feng arrived, he happened to see the man take out the Glassy Bottle and was about to put it into a bag. "Stop!" he shouted and immediately attacked with his sword. However, the man’s strength was far beyond this. With just a few simple moves, he injured Qing Feng and kicked him away. Qing Feng smashed into the wall and immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.

He watched the man leave under the Spirit Tree. How could he bear to fail in his mission? So---

He immediately used the Telestone to call for help! Fortunately, he notified in time. As soon as Nanli and Siheng arrived under the Spirit Tree, they saw the black-robed person come out. The black-robed person’s steps paused. Seeing that Siheng had arrived so quickly, he subconsciously put the bag into the inner layer of his clothes.

"Zhai Xing, this backup, is really useless. He actually let you come here unscathed."

She spoke coldly. A woman?

Nanli, hearing her tone and seeing the clean wounds on the disciples’ bodies, knew that this person’s strength was far above Zhai Xing. This person might be one of the protectors. However, the interval was too long, and coupled with her memory loss, she couldn’t remember who this person was just by her voice.

Siheng stared at the black-robed person and said, "Please put down the Glassy Bottle." He took a step forward and exuded endless pressure. The black-robed person, who had long been in this spiritual place and whose cultivation could hardly advance, was forced to take a step back by him.

She raised her head. Under the black robe’s hood, a face with signs of aging at the chin was visible.

"Siheng, you rarely went out when you were young. If you left Jialan Celestial Mountain, you would also cover your face with a mask. Later, you went to the North Sea and said that your appearance was damaged, so you never removed the face-covering spell afterwards," the black-robed person smiled, "I didn’t expect that you are so stunningly beautiful."

With that, she actually bowed respectfully to Siheng, using the etiquette of the Demon Clan. Siheng frowned slightly, unable to fathom her meaning for a moment. Nanli also found it strange: "Your Demon Clan Asura has always been arrogant and never bows to anyone outside the royal family... So? Are you not one of the protectors?"

The black-robed person remained calm and said, "I am merely showing respect to Venerable Master Siheng, who has been struggling to support the Immortal World for so long and is the first person to ascend in ten thousand years."

"Cut the nonsense," Siheng said directly, "Will you return the Glassy Bottle or not?"

"I am showing respect, not submitting to you."

Before the black-robed person could finish speaking, Siheng had already moved. In the blink of an eye, they had exchanged several moves, as if they were going to turn Jialan Celestial Mountain upside down. Nanli watched with a pounding heart. After all, this black-robed person was at the second level of the Demon Venerable’s six realms!
