Chapter 187: Nine Demoness_1
The woman was extremely beautiful, with long emerald-green hair cascading down, emerald-green, pure eyes without any impurities, cherry-red lips, a well-proportioned nose, and evenly symmetrical features that were stunningly beautiful.
She was dressed in a green female skirt armor, and the armor did not cover her entire body, revealing a vast expanse of snow-white skin. The front of her chest was covered with only a little fabric, revealing some enchanting scenery. Below the skirt, a pair of enticing legs were wrapped in green transparent silk stockings, exuding a beauty that was extremely seductive!
At the same time, Su Daji also slowly descended beside Chu Qin, still wearing that ancient robe with a plunging neckline, under which surged endless tumultuous waves.
In an instant, all the men were stunned. They had never imagined that there could be two such stunningly beautiful women in the world, Su Daji and the Nine Demoness in front of them!
Chu Qin’s pupils also contracted slightly.
"Who are you!" the Nine Demoness exclaimed in astonishment.
"You don’t need to worry about who I am. You dared to target my master, you’re dead!" Su Daji’s beautiful eyes turned cold as she spoke.
The Nine Demoness snorted coldly and stood up again.
"Master Ji, I’m here to assist you!" Ye Tianjun shouted at the same time.
As his words fell, yellow, purple, black, black, black, black, eight dazzling Soul Rings lit up beneath him, and in his hands appeared a spotlessly white flower, exactly the same as the Nine-heart Asiatic Apple that Ye Lingling had once possessed!
Quickly, the eight Soul Rings at his feet shone simultaneously, and powerful healing and mysterious forces began to pour into the Nine Demoness’ body.
It was clear to see that with the infusion of Ye Tianjun’s power, the Nine Demoness’ momentum soared.
The next moment, the Nine Demoness struck out with her palm, and her robust Soul Power was fiercely unleashed towards Su Daji.
Su Daji was unconcerned, smiling faintly, following which her slender jade fingers condensed into a pink light shield in front of her!
And when the Nine Demoness’ Soul Power struck the pink light shield, it not only failed to harm Su Daji but was instead reflected back!
It was only then that the Nine Demoness realized that Su Daji’s power was something she could not overcome, and immediately transformed into a beam of light, disappearing into the towering trees!
"Master Ji!"
Seeing the Nine Demoness flee in panic, Ye Tianjun called out in surprise.
The other members of the Jiuxin Haitang Sect were also dumbfounded. Who exactly were these people that even the Nine Demoness could not match?
"Ye Tianjun, is it?" Chu Qin didn’t pursue the Nine Demoness immediately but spoke to Ye Tianjun in a tone that was neither cold nor warm.
Let’s not forget, his aim in coming here was not to kill, but rather to lift the curse on Ye Lingling!
"Chu Qin, please don’t hurt my father!" Witnessing this, Ye Lingling immediately pleaded with Chu Qin.
"Don’t worry, Lingling, I won’t hurt him," Chu Qin said to Ye Lingling with a gentle smile.
"Spare my life, my lord!"
Ye Tianjun, too, changed from his previous arrogance and immediately begged Chu Qin for mercy. With even the Nine Demoness retreating, what could he possibly use to confront Chu Qin?
"Ye Tianjun, I haven’t come to kill you," Chu Qin said dispassionately, "I want to ask you, what exactly is the Curse of the Jiuxin Haitang Sect about?"
"Please forgive me, I cannot explain!" Ye Tianjun immediately frowned and said.
"Hmph, since that’s the case, Lingling can’t save you either," Chu Qin said with a chilling smile.
Ye Lingling was shocked upon hearing this, but before she could speak up, Chu Qin’s voice transmission had already rung in her ear, "Ling Ling, don’t worry, it’s just a threat."
After hearing this, Ye Lingling felt relieved.
Ye Tianjun’s pupils also shrank in fear, but he still insisted, "Then you, just kill me!"
Chu Qin’s expression became slightly intense upon hearing these words. Seeing how Ye Tianjun was so afraid of death, he had originally thought that Ye Tianjun would honestly confess!
"Ye Tianjun, I’ll tell you the truth!" unable to be harsh with him, Chu Qin softened his approach, "The purpose of my trip is to lift the curse on the Jiuxin Haitang Sect and to give Ling Ling her freedom!"
Ye Lingling was deeply moved upon hearing this. Chu Qin had traveled thousands of miles to come here, indeed for her sake!
A flash of surprise appeared on Ye Tianjun’s face, but he quickly said in a heavy voice, "As this concerns the core secrets of the Jiuxin Haitang Sect, I still have nothing to say!"
"You really are ungrateful!" Su Daji, angered by his response, walked up to Ye Tianjun, about to strike, but was stopped by Chu Qin.
After all, he was Lingling’s father, no matter what!
"Master Dugu, keep an eye on all of them for me!" seizing the moment, Chu Qin spoke to Dugu Bo.
"Daji, Ling Ling, come with me!" With those words, Chu Qin led Su Daji and Ye Lingling into the tree hollow!
Although Ye Tianjun refused to talk, Chu Qin knew that the Nine Demoness must know something!
"What are you doing!" Seeing Chu Qin forcefully entering, Ye Tianjun’s expression panicked, but the moment he tried to move, Dugu Bo pressed down on his shoulder, rendering him immovable!
"Chu Qin, I’ll go with you!" At this time, Zi Ji and Ah Yin spoke in unison, and immediately they too followed into the tree hollow.
Entering the tree hollow, they found an enormous space with a very comprehensive setup. Inside were many small caves resembling rooms; without a doubt, this was the Jiuxin Haitang Sect’s hidden dwelling!
Besides that, there were three giant stone doors, their destinations unknown.
However, the Nine Demoness was nowhere to be seen!
"Ling Ling, where is Nine-person?" Chu Qin asked Ye Lingling.
Ye Lingling shook her head, "The Nine-person is called the Nine Demoness, and she always appears and disappears mysteriously. Even dad does not know her exact location, but she should definitely be inside there!"
Finally, Ye Lingling pointed toward the three giant stone doors, "There, is the forbidden ground of the Jiuxin Haitang Sect!"
Hearing this, Chu Qin’s pupils turned pale white as he began to search around, but found nothing.
"It’s very deep in here!" Chu Qin frowned, "And there are three diverging paths. It seems we’ll have to split up!"
As soon as Chu Qin finished speaking, two elegant figures landed beside him, Yun Yun and Medusa.
"Yun Yun Ah Yin and Medusa Zi Ji, you two form one team, and Ling Ling, Daji, and I will be another!" Chu Qin instructed, "Once you find her trace, immediately signal to me!"
"Okay!" All the women responded in unison.
With that, everyone split up and Chu Qin, Su Daji, and Ye Lingling dashed into the middlemost giant door.
Inside was even deeper than they had imagined, but it was nothing to the trio of Chu Qin.
About ten minutes later, they arrived at the bottom of the cave, where there was an underground lake. In the center of the lake, a giant Asiatic apple was in full bloom, clearly the Nine-heart Asiatic Apple!
