"Miss, you donât remember who you are, do you?"
Lin Changâsheng asked curiously.
He saved her, not because he wanted her to call him Master, but so she could safely return to the Eastern Wilderness.
That way he could avoid a major battle.
If the Eastern Emperor Demon Emperor thought she died in the Southern Realm, heâd go insane with vengeance against the Southern Realm.
How many innocent lives would be lost then?
"Master, this humble oneâs name is Yun Chan. You can call me ChanâEr. Of course I remember my own name."
Yun Chan slowly sat up, looking Lin Changâsheng over with curious eyes.
As soon as Yun Chan sat up, her prominent assets became even more obvious.
Laid down she hadnât been so eye-catching, but standing up? Forget about it.
Is it true the Demon Race develops better than the Human Race?
This was hands down the largest Lin Changâsheng had ever seen.
"Ahem, ahem..."
Lin Changâsheng coughed awkwardly to hide his embarrassment.
He nearly couldnât tear his eyes away.
"Do you still remember your family?"
Lin Changâsheng kept asking.
He wanted to figure out what was wrong.
Why did this silly girl wake up calling him Master? He thought maybe sheâd lost her memory, but she didnât seem like it!
"My father is Lord of the Eastern Wilderness, my mother is the Fire Fox Queen, and I have two younger brothersâoneâs Yun Shan and the otherâs Yun He. Why do you ask, Master? ChanâEr did have a long dream, but I didnât forget everything!"
Yun Chan replied, starting to wonder if maybe Lin Changâsheng was the one whoâd lost his memory and forgotten her.
"So what exactly happened?"
Lin Changâsheng muttered to himself, at a bit of a loss.
He could only go to a deserted corner and summon Lu Yunchangâs soul.
After all, this demon corpse was refined by Lu Yunchang.
In the end, Lu Yunchang explained heâd used a special secret technique in refining the demon corpse, which produced this side effect.
But luckily, Yun Chan truly was resurrectedâshe just formed this weird bond with him.
She thinks Lin Changâsheng is her Master.
"ChanâEr, donât call me Master anymore, youâre not a servant. Go back to the Eastern Wilderness Demon Race now!"
Lin Changâsheng said to Yun Chan after returning.
This was really for Yun Chanâs own goodâit was dangerous around him.
But Yun Chan looked totally pitiful when she heard Lin Changâshengâs words.
"Master, you donât want me anymore? Did I do something wrong? Is Master disgusted with me?"
Yun Chan said pitifully, tears already gathering in her eyes.
Lin Changâsheng had never seen this kind of sceneâhis heart instantly softened.
"Okay, okay, you donât have to go back, but you gotta hide in the Spirit Beast Bag, alright? I have a lot to take care of!"
Lin Changâsheng said helplessly.
He could only keep Yun Chan with him for nowâmaybe someday this bond would disappear.
And sheâd leave.
"Sure! As long as Iâm with Master, Iâll do anything!"
Yun Chan instantly beamed with joy.
Lin Changâsheng just shook his head and put Yun Chan in the Spirit Beast Bag for now to let her keep Xiaobai company.
"Time to get out of the Demon Evil Sea!"
Lin Changâsheng mused.
Heâd achieved all he came to Demon Evil Sea for.
Heâd gotten the Myriad Ghosts Pulling Technique and brought Yun Chan back to life.
"Lin Changâsheng, you think you can escape?"
Just as Lin Changâsheng was preparing to leave Demon Evil Sea, Su Changkongâs voice echoed from afar.
This time wasnât Nascent Soul sound transmission.
His real body arrived.
As soon as his words fell, Su Changkongâs figure landed on the deserted island, just thirty feet from Lin Changâsheng.
"Sect Leader Suâno wonder you absorbed the Body of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy. In such a short time, youâve almost fully recovered!"
Lin Changâsheng said mockingly.
Hearing "Heaven and Earth Qi," Su Changkongâs rage boiled over.
This guy was clearly mocking him for stealing Murong Tianâs fortune by underhanded means.
But today, Su Changkong hadnât come to spar words with Lin Changâsheng.
He came to kill.
"My sect had intended to groom you, but since you donât know whatâs good for you, donât blame me for being ruthless. Todayâs the day you die!"
With those words, Su Changkongâs Nascent Soul Magical Power surged wildly within his body.
At any moment, he could strike.
Seeing this, Lin Changâsheng knew not to be careless.
After all, he was facing a Middle Stage Nascent Soul expert.
Even though Su Changkong wasnât at peak strength, he was still dangerous.
"Come on thenâletâs see what happens!"
Lin Changâsheng said fearlessly, summoning his Spirit Treasure into his hand, ready for battle.
"No need for you two to fightâtoday, you both die here!"
As Su Changkong and Lin Changâsheng were about to clash, a furious shout rang out from above.
Nie Buping of the Corpse King Sect had arrived, bringing tributor and all the elders.
Beside him were Jiu Wushang, Sect Leader of Celestial Ghost Sect, and all the other Celestial Ghost sect powerhouses.
The strongest from both sects had gatheredâkilling Su Changkong or Lin Changâsheng wouldnât be hard.
Seeing the Demon Evil Seaâs two great sect leaders appear, Lin Changâsheng frownedâlooked like a brutal fight was about to go down.
"Jiu Wushang, Nie Buping, Iâm just here to take care of my sectâs traitor, Lin Changâsheng. I have no desire to get tangled up with youâif you want payback, wait until Iâve killed him first!"
Su Changkong spoke slowly.
Even with two Middle Stage Nascent Soul masters present, Su Changkong still wanted to kill Lin Changâsheng and seize his fortune.
So long as he could get Lin Changâshengâs creation, he could break through Hao Zhix.
In the future, heâd flatten Demon Evil Sea.
Jiu Wushang and Nie Buping exchanged glances, instantly understanding each other.
If they jumped in now and Su Changkong joined forces with Lin Changâsheng, they might struggle.
If the two fought first and burned through their magical power, finishing off whoever survived would be a breeze.
"Donât say we never gave you a chanceâa stick of incenseâs time. If you canât kill Lin Changâsheng by then, heâs ours!"
Jiu Wushang threw out the ultimatum.
Heâd love nothing more than to personally slaughter Lin Changâsheng.
After all, Lin Changâsheng had killed plenty from his Celestial Ghost Sect.
But if he could use someone else to get rid of Lin Changâsheng, well, thatâs fine too.
After using the Celestial Ghost Devouring God Technique, his magical power hadnât even fully recovered yet.
"Lin Changâsheng, prepare to die!"
Seeing both Corpse King Sect and Celestial Ghost Sect leaders agree, Su Changkong moved against Lin Changâsheng.
He knew that even after killing Lin Changâsheng, they wouldnât let him off easy.
But Su Changkong had his own life-saving tricksâso he dared make the gamble.
With a furious shout, Su Changkong charged up a palm strike, blasting straight at Lin Changâsheng.
The sky filled with rolling white clouds.
Two giant Celestial Vault Palm Seals came crashing down on Lin Changâsheng.
"Break!"
Facing a Middle Stage Nascent Soul expert, Lin Changâsheng didnât hold back for even a second.
He slashed with his bladeâa Demon God Celestial Fury Slash.
With two Nascent Soul powers infused, the might of the attack multiplied.
The blade aura transformed into a colossal Demon God phantom, sword in hand, ready to split heaven and earth.
BOOMâ
The Celestial Vault giant palms and the blade aura collided, detonating in a deafening explosion.
Violent impactâthe blade aura shattered the palm seals and surged toward Su Changkong.
Everyone stared dumbfounded.
Lin Changâsheng actually had this kind of power?
Golden Core Late Stage cultivation battling a Middle Stage Nascent Soul masterâhe wasnât falling behind at all?
Su Changkong couldnât believe itâeven after recovering seventy percent of his magical power, heâd still lost to Lin Changâshengâs strike?
Seeing the blade aura coming close, Su Changkong could only retreat, dodging the brunt of it.
The blade aura grazed his clothes, slicing off a corner.
"Such a domineering blade aura!"
Su Changkongâs heart raced with dread.
Heâd underestimated Lin Changâsheng after all.
But only Lin Changâsheng knew that after unleashing that one blow, he couldnât throw out another just as strong.
So after that move, Lin Changâsheng set his mind to fleeing.
If he burnt all his magical power fighting Su Changkong, the two other Demon Sect leaders would slaughter him anyway.
Better to lay low for now, break into the Nascent Soul Realm, and then killing them wouldnât be hard.
"Su Changkong, you think if you kill Lin Changâsheng, youâll get out of here?"
Just as Lin Changâsheng prepared to escape,
a feminine shout rang out from the horizon.
By the time the figure arrived,
it was Jiaoyue Fairy from Yanyue Immortal SectâLing Yue.
Ling Yue had used the Escape Light Technique to race to Demon Evil Sea in time.
Sheâd burned through more than half her magical power.
Luckily, sheâd made it before Lin Changâshengâs demise.
"Looks like Demon Evil Seaâs real lively today! You two Southern Domain Immortal Sect leaders came all this way just to die? Fineânone of you are leaving alive!"
Nie Buping from Corpse King Sect flashed cold eyes, flinging out three golden talismans.
They were Communication Golden Talismansâsoon, the other three major sects of Demon Evil SeaâYin Yang Hall, Celestial Demon Sect, and Taiyin Islandâwould get the message and rush over.
When all five Demon Evil Sea sect leaders assembled, Su Changkong, Ling Yue, and Lin Changâsheng wouldnât escape.
Once two sect leaders fell, what would the Southern Domain Cultivation Realm have left to fear?
"You really couldnât have come at a worse time!"
Seeing Ling Yue arrive, Lin Changâsheng was moved.
Heâd absorbed all the spiritual energy from her Holy Landâs Spiritual Spring.
Not only did she not come after him, sheâd even come to helpâtrue testament to her generosity.
But now, Lin Changâsheng was thinking of having Xiaobai take him away, yet Ling Yueâs arrival meant sheâd be caught in Demon Evil Seaâs crossfire.
"Ling Yue, donât forgetâLin Changâsheng stole your Holy Landâs spiritual energy not long ago, and now you want to help him?"
Su Changkong couldnât understand it. Were these people stupid?
They actually helped Lin Changâsheng?
If Celestial Sword Sectâs Wang Chonglou hadnât protected him last time, Su Changkong would have killed Lin Changâsheng already.
Would Lin Changâsheng have reached this kind of cultivation otherwise?
And now, Ling Yue was here to defend Lin Changâsheng too?
"Sect Leader Su, Lin Changâsheng is a rare genius our Southern Domain hasnât seen in centuries. Heâs the hope of the Southern RealmâI canât sit by and watch him die. I hope you wonât recklessly side with the Demon Dao!"
Ling Yue made her stance clearâshe would shield Lin Changâsheng, even if it meant turning against Su Changkong.
"That depends on whether you can actually protect him!"
Su Changkong was truly pissed now. Heâd tried to kill Lin Changâsheng again and again, only to be stopped at every turnâthis time, no matter who tried, they werenât getting between him and his goal.
If Lin Changâsheng broke into the Nascent Soul Realm, Su Changkong would have even less chance to deal with him.
