Chapter 6, Do Not Speak of the Past

Only Rong'er fell behind, and she pulled on Ling'er, calling out to Yue'er

Ethereal and majestic, a moment of commotion ensued as numerous masters from the Lingjiu Palace surged forward in unison

The disciples of Lingjiu Palace remained silent. The witch has always been the highest symbol of authority in Lingjiu Palace, a status that no other disciple can compare to. Even Mo has yet to receive the honor of being promoted to witch by Xi'er.

Le'er slowly relaxed her fist, raised her palm, and lightly placed her slender, green onion-like index finger against her lips. She bit down hard on her fingertip, allowing the bright red blood to flow down her lips and drip...

Pah

The celestial decree has been issued, and the various sects of the martial world are reminded of the events from twenty years ago, particularly the long-standing conflicts with Lingjiu Palace prior to the decisive battle at Piaomiao Peak. After the battle, the sects of the martial world focused on combating the demons, resulting in few large-scale conflicts among them. Lingjiu Palace suffered significant losses during the decisive battle, and being situated at the border with the demon territory, they were preoccupied with dealing with the demons, which left them with no substantial conflicts of interest with the other sects. After the battle, the sects of the martial world continued to combat the demons, and large-scale conflicts among the sects were rare. Lingjiu Palace, having sustained heavy losses in the decisive battle, was also busy dealing with the demons, leading to no significant conflicts of interest with the other sects.

For twenty years, she has been killing everywhere, seeking only to anger the heavenly court to open the gates of hell and take her inside. Apart from her, all disciples of the Lingjiu Palace have followed the decree of the killing legend, practicing the path of universal mastery. However, over the years, all sects in the martial world that have cultivated the realm of universal mastery have successfully ascended to the celestial realm, yet not a single person from the Lingjiu Palace has been able to ascend successfully.

Mo Lengleng stared coldly at the newcomer and snorted, "What brings you here, dog of the white dusk? Looking for death?"

"It has been thirty-three years..." Daji murmured to herself. Thirty-three years, for her and the other beings and spirits who arrived here earlier, is a brief span. But what about for those who have persevered and never given up their struggle over these thirty-three years

However, after this slap, she smiled and began to read. "Do you think I need your reminder? Of course I know Xier's intentions! This slap is for everyone under the gate of Lingjiu Palace, and it must be delivered."

The magic confinement area remains unchanged; since the reign of the Overlord, no other individuals or fairies have been sent here.

Over the years, he has said all the words he wanted to curse, and he no longer knows what else to say, nor does he wish to curse anymore. Perhaps the hatred of the past has been completely vented through his curses, or maybe the indifference of the other party, who never responds to his transparent attitude, has made him feel extremely bored

Mo once voluntarily took on a mission, adopting the alias Ning Wang, infiltrating the Qian Gang and becoming its leader. She also served as a substitute for the Vice Envoy of the Tianmeng, dedicating herself greatly to the Lingjiu Palace. Xi'er had once instructed Rong'er that if she were not present, Mo would be responsible for the affairs within the Lingjiu Palace. Although the position of the palace master is currently held by Le'er, it is actually Mo, in her capacity as Deputy Palace Master, who handles the day-to-day matters.

Daji held her breath, gazing intently at the last remaining thread of ancient metal connecting the magic-sealing chain. She watched without blinking, waiting for the next strike of the sword. Kong Xuan was also watching; proud as he was, he sincerely admired the perseverance and resilience of Yiyun and Xi'er, who refused to give up. If the magic-sealing chain were to break, it would be an event that even the deities in the Heavenly Court would find hard to believe.

Ling Er smiled, her laughter filled with joy, yet tears slowly streamed down her face, hot and burning...

What else is there to think about! Le'er angrily surveyed the crowd, her fists cracking with tension. The Lingjiu Palace fears neither bloodshed nor battle! Regardless of who the enemy is, the Lingjiu Palace is unafraid—be it the demon clan, various sects of the martial world, or even those damned celestial beings from the Heavenly Court. Whoever dares to invade the Lingjiu Palace, we will kill them!

The sound of resentment echoed through the clear sky

Batian forced a smile, speaking in a tone that was almost pleading, and said, "Have you really forgotten the past? Are you unwilling to say even a single word to me again?"

Thirteen years ago, the heavenly court sent messengers to announce that evil demons in the mortal realm who defy heavenly laws could earn merit. This news brought great joy and celebration among the people. However, the Lingjiu Palace was shrouded in a gray mist. This was because the heavenly messengers also declared that the evil sect of Lingjiu Palace, which indiscriminately killed the innocent, could not be tolerated by heavenly principles. They were deemed to possess a demonic heart within a human body, and both humans and demons could eradicate them. Anyone who killed a member of the evil sect of Lingjiu Palace would earn the merit to ascend to the celestial realm.

A beautiful shadow soared from the edge of the cliff, floating gracefully to the ethereal summit, and gently landed before Le'er

The Lingjiu Palace fears not bloodshed! The senior sister will surely return, kill, kill, kill!

Le Er's expression was cold and her eyes seemed ready to burst into flames from rage. With Xi Er absent, she was the leader of the witches. Although she usually did not manage the affairs of the sect, when faced with a significant matter, it was only natural for her to take on the heavy responsibility. "For twenty years, no one from our sect has been able to ascend. It turns out that the celestial realm has long regarded our sect as evil and has already blocked our path to ascension to the immortal realm!"

At this moment, she finally spoke. "The first slap was for yourself, right? The second slap was for Yue'er, wasn't it? Who else do you want to hit?"

The world

I have something to say to you all

It is not good; a large number of people from the five sects of the martial world are coming to attack, and reinforcements are urgently needed at the foot of the mountain. Without haste, he immediately bowed and said: "Please give the order, Palace Master"

The masters of Lingjiu Palace could not help but recall the leader from several years ago, Xi'er. One by one, their fair fingers rested upon their lips, as blood flowed slowly...

The Night Charm Snow Leader Witch and over a thousand seasoned masters arrived late to report: "Quan Quan and Rou Shui are currently holding off a group of intruders from the Huashan Sect and are unable to free themselves for the time being"

Until the celestial messenger brings the divine decree, everything will remain shrouded in mystery

I remember that when I first became a witch, you said that the only requirement for witches is: no matter what happens, we can fight each other for any reason, but after it all, we remain the closest of sisters. This is the bond between witches. Chi'er did not revoke my status as the Fifth Witch because she knew that after I repaid the favor I owed to Xiao Jian, I would still be the Fifth Witch of Lingjiu Palace. I have only one home, which is Lingjiu Palace, and it will always be!

"Heh..." Le Er scoffed, raising her hand to strike again, but was merely caught by Rong Er by the arm. "What are you doing!" she couldn't help but glare at Rong Er in anger.

However, there is still a witch in Lingjiu Palace who has been indiscriminately killing innocents for twenty years, slaying demons when encountering them and killing humans when encountering them. She is the second witch of Lingjiu Palace, known as Xiaoyun Le, under the legend of slaughter associated with Xi'er.

Do not clasp your fists in greeting, and spoke: "I believe this matter must be closely related to the Heavenly Alliance. The Heavenly Alliance harbors hatred towards our sect and will naturally not wish for us to ascend to the Immortal Realm. They will undoubtedly conspire and scheme in the Heavenly Court, ensuring that Lingjiu Palace has no place to be buried. Although the Senior Sister once mentioned allowing us to ascend to the Immortal Realm, the current situation is something she could never have anticipated. I think we must seek another way out..."

Summit of the Ethereal Peak

Pah

Lingjiu Palace

The sky of hell, devoid of day and night, is only a sea of blood-red color

One could see that the newcomer had long hair casually draped, an oval face, and a pair of beautiful eyes that radiated a subtle smile, slowly sweeping across the faces of the crowd

In rhyme, do you still remember the time in the growth institution? We, along with Liuzi and the others, would gather together every morning after waking up, dreaming of our lives in the chaotic era as adults... Do you still blame me for Sha? In fact, I have been regretting it for many years; Sha was merely a beautiful woman. How could I have been so unable to control myself, thinking that I couldn't live without her? In the years after she left me, although I occasionally thought of her, didn't I live quite well? In fact, I have been regretting it for many years; Sha was merely a beautiful woman. How could I have been so unable to control myself, thinking that I couldn't live without her? In the years after she left me, although I occasionally thought of her, didn't I live quite well?

Many years ago, I once said, in the past, I have long forgotten and have no interest in recalling. Yiyun only uttered this one sentence, a sentence once spoken. He had no interest in responding to Batian's insults, as he was now wholeheartedly focused on his efforts to escape. He was even too lazy to remind Batian of what he had said back in the growth center.

The sword mark on the magic-sealing chain has already penetrated two inches deep. After observing it for a moment, Yi Yun calmly said to Xi Er, "One more sword strike is still needed"

Led by the four sorceresses Le'er (Xiaoyun Le), Rong'er (Xiaoyun Rong), Yue'er (Xiaoyun Yue), and Ming'er, many martial arts experts gathered, including Leng Aoshang, the leader of the second largest sect in the martial world, Xianling Valley, and several top masters from Lingjiu Palace, such as Ming Xue and others.

The moon embraced her shoulders, her voice slightly choked. "Ling'er, I have always been waiting for your return. I know you will definitely come back, you will definitely..."

Batian continued to ramble on and on, speaking for a very long time until he was parched and hoarse, almost unable to utter a word. Meanwhile, Yiyun remained focused on her own cultivation, diligently channeling her internal energy into the sword, preparing for the next attempt to sever the chain

The gaze of Yi Yun finally slowly settled on Ba Tian's face, which caused the latter to show an expression of excitement and exhilaration. However, when Yi Yun spoke, he felt as if cold water had been poured over him, and he could not help but burst into a torrent of curses. "You cold-blooded, heartless murderer, you bastard, ungrateful and oblivious to kindness, a despicable scoundrel..."

This is my home, of course I should return. Before Xi'er left, I do not recall her ever canceling the qualification to compete with the Fifth Witch in the library

On that day, he suddenly ceased his scolding and, gazing at the blood-red sky of hell, began to speak of the past with a sense of nostalgia and tranquility

In the crowd, the continuous sound of spitting lasted for a full quarter of an hour. Everyone knew that this Fifth Witch, Zero, was a trusted confidante of the leaders of the White Twilight, namely Xiao Jian and Zi Shan. Initially, she had infiltrated the Lingjiu Palace merely as a spy. During the decisive battle at the peak of Piaomiao, she had used her body to block an attack from the Legend of Justice for Xiao Jian

Not a single word in response

... ...

She calmly surveyed the crowd

Le Er suddenly broke free from Rong Er's hand and slapped Ling Er across the face

Le Er swung her hand again, and instantly left a clear five-fingered imprint on the left cheek of the woman.

Eliminate them all!" Le'er exclaimed angrily, leading her beloved with a blend of cruelty and tenderness. They leaped off the cliff together, while the masters of the Lingjiu Palace at the peak of the Misty Mountain followed suit, jumping off the cliff in succession.

Numerous disciples of Lingjiu Palace, many of whom miss Xi'er, are filled with grief and anger over their current situation, each one with red-rimmed eyes, and some even gritting their teeth while shedding tears of indignation...! ... Twenty years, twenty years of mastering all methods, only to end up as a colossal joke!

As she spoke, Le'er swung her hand and delivered a heavy slap to the woman's face, instantly leaving a clear imprint of five fingers. The woman, unfazed, straightened her head and face, continuing to gaze at Le'er with a pair of eyes that held a faint smile.

Rong Er grasped Le Er's arm and calmly asked in a low voice, "What are you doing here?"

Before the Legend of Slaughter fell into hell, it instructed the other witches to cultivate all methods and achieve ascension to the celestial realm. All under the command of Lingjiu Palace were to heed this order, practicing all methods to eliminate killing intent. Only Le'er was determined to descend into hell to accompany Xi'er, unwilling to let her endure suffering alone in the Abyss of No Return
