CHAPTER 526: CHAPTER 314: JUNIOR BROTHER, CAN YOU ACT LIKE A HUMAN? _2

"The final battle involved the joint efforts of the human, demon, and monster clans to take him down. That battle mobilized seven Immortal Monarch-level figures and countless experts from the Cultivation World to finally and utterly destroy him."

"And..."

He glanced at Jiang Feng.

Indeed, even in such circumstances, the Demon Night True Monarch didn’t use his full strength and always left an escape route, masterfully using the tactic of ’shedding the golden cicada.’"

He awkwardly rubbed his nose.

Although he didn’t have much fondness for that Demon Lord, he held great respect for strong individuals, especially for someone who dared to challenge the entire Cultivation World—an act that could only be described as insane.

A gentle breeze brushed past, bringing a hint of coolness. Liu Xianzi, acting a bit like a young girl for once, curled her body entirely into Ao Qing’s thick and dense fur.

Seeing this, Jiang Feng naturally moved a bit closer, a fawning smile on his face as he extended his hand. Though Ying Ling, that little girl, was inexperienced and didn’t know how to serve others, it didn’t mean he lacked perception.

"Senior sister, you’ve worked hard. You must have expended quite a bit of energy in this battle."

In the eyes of others, Liu Tangxi seemed to sweep through directly with overwhelming force, effortlessly. But as her junior brother, he knew his senior sister well.

She was someone whose emotions and feelings were never expressed on her face; she always appeared calm and composed, no matter the situation.

Under normal circumstances, she would definitely choose to leave directly. But this time, she summoned a demon beast she had played with since childhood, indicating that she was indeed a bit tired.

"Yes."

"Fighting those two simultaneously was not difficult. Though they were renowned experts, they were old and lacked in the realm department."

"I could have used a more reliable method to defeat them, but this time I didn’t just want to win; I wanted to kill. From the beginning of the battle, I kept luring them to use those methods of summoning evil beings so that they had nowhere to hide."

"I thought using the Eight-Edged Han Sword could execute them on the spot; even if not executed immediately, it would trap them and completely strip them of resistance. I took such a great risk just for that one strike."

"But I didn’t expect the two of them to have the Sumeru Ruler in their possession. It seems the Sect Leader of the Xuanyin Sect couldn’t quite rest easy about his grandson."

"The two elders, along with Xuan Yinzi, had six Magic Treasures between them, all of the Earth Rank."

"With such pampering, it’s no wonder they aren’t skilled in their arts."

Liu Tangxi shook her head, her face showing for the first time an expression called ’speechless.’

It was clear she was a bit dissatisfied with this educational approach; it was too abstract. Even Jiang Feng couldn’t hold back.

"You’ve failed in your attempt to attain the Nascent Soul realm, yet you brought along an entire bodyguard team. You got beaten up badly by someone of a much lower realm and had to call for your elders when on the brink of death."

"Then your elders joined you in getting beaten. Arms and legs getting chopped off, and they lost all their Magic Treasures to save you, such a wastrel, destroying three in the battle and having two confiscated."

"Truly a waste, more destructive than constructive."

"Indeed, it’s quite abstract. I’ve seen many clan disciples, but never one like him with a bodyguard team."

"Even when Yue Yue once went far away to the Central Plains to play, the most she had was a token from her father to save her life in emergencies."

"As for Xuan Yinzi... speaking of which, senior sister, after I destroyed that boy’s physical body, he shouldn’t be able to stir up much trouble, right? Though I really didn’t expect he had already formed a Nascent Soul, albeit only a nascent one."

Sitting proactively behind her, he kept elbowing his senior sister’s shoulder and neck as if facing an enemy, seemingly wanting to break her neck.

The strength of his strikes was so great that they made a pounding noise, intimidating to hear.

"Put some effort into it, didn’t you have breakfast?"

"... I really didn’t."

Only Liu Tangxi would complain about the lack of force; anyone of similar realm would probably be lying on the ground from such an elbow.

Though she complained, she answered any of Jiang Feng’s queries directly, never beating around the bush—a unique personality traits people admired, especially straightforward individuals.

"He can’t stir up much trouble, but with the Xuanyin Sect’s abilities, finding him a new body is no big deal."

"For a cultivator at the Nascent Soul Stage, they can transfer to a new body by virtue of specialities and cultivation. However, unless necessary, it’s not recommended."

"No matter how good a new body is, it’s never as good as your own. Typically, only those whose paths are hopeless or lacking talent have such thoughts. But generally speaking, having reached the Nascent Soul Stage indicates decent aptitude."

"Xuan Yinzi’s body was destroyed, and Xuan Jiuzi I cut off an arm and a leg. With their skills, they can certainly refine new bodies, but their strength will significantly decline."

"For a couple of years, be a bit cautious when you go out. The Xuanyin Sect is different from the Purple Cloud Palace. Their moral baseline is very low."

"Given their nature, if confronting you openly doesn’t work, they might turn to hidden schemes. Moreover, two years later in the Phoenix Heavenly Cave, they won’t let you off easily, I’m sure."

"Being hunted by the Third and Fourth Generation Disciples of an entire sect, an enemy to the world, does suit you well."

He rolled his eyes while listening.

Though the tone was calm, Jiang Feng detected a hint of gloating. But he didn’t react much, merely poking his head outside for a look.

"Isn’t this the wrong route, senior sister? Shouldn’t we be going to Fish City? Since we’re already here, why not finish off those dozens of young Xuanyin Sect disciples? With you and senior sister Xiao Qing here, those bastards won’t escape."

"... Almost forgot, you really have no moral baseline."

"That’s not true!"

The shameless man puffed his chest and said with good reason, "Senior sister, these remnants of the Xuanyin Sect are hidden threats. If we let them go, what if they cultivate a master in the future?

"What if your dear junior brother is killed by someone inside the Phoenix Heavenly Cave?"

"I say it’s better to eradicate them, wipe out this batch who would be the main force in the Phoenix Heavenly Cave. Ideally, the sect should send a few elder veterans."

"They are all old already, half dead, so why not contribute more to the sect before dying? Send them as a suicide squad to Xuanyin Sect, and you declare war openly."

"Meanwhile, let those elders infiltrate and assassinate behind enemy lines, killing talented disciples instantly. When encountering rivals with similar realm, withdraw immediately."

"See, as they run and get beaten, they slaughter the young disciples. Ideally, bring some Magic Treasures. Oh, yes, senior sister, I’ve prepared quite a bit of C4. It’s pretty powerful. Can’t guarantee it will kill masters, but it’s enough trouble for them."

"This way, the Xuanyin Sect’s strength will drop dramatically, leaving them with no successors. Retreat our sect’s disciples, barring them from engaging, focusing on cultivation to wear the opponent down.

"If they dare attack the sect, activate the Purple Cloud Formation immediately. To put it simply, within a hundred years, our Purple Cloud Palace will win without a fight, and we’ll outlast them!"

Silence.

Truth be told, Liu Tangxi knew her junior brother’s character, knowing Jiang Feng had no moral scruples or psychological burden.

But.

Neither she nor the entire Purple Cloud Palace could come up with such a plan that would cut off the problems at the root. Truly, even in the past traitor incidents, no one dared target young disciples directly.

No one with any humanity would think of such an idea.

"Junior brother."

"Can you act like a human?"
