“I’m finally back.” Kong Rui took a deep breath and sighed.

Although she had gained little from the night, from Chao Bai’s recount, she had basically escaped death.

Kong Rui had just sent Chao Bai away and was about to lie down to rest when she heard a commotion outside the courtyard.

“What’s wrong?” Kong Rui asked the servant running hurriedly across the courtyard.

“T-Second Elder is in trouble!” The servant said with a trembling voice, as if he had seen a ghost.

Kong Rui frowned and asked, “What happened?”

“I heard that the Second Elder’s entire cultivation base was sucked away by someone. Now, he’s only a skeleton!” The more the servant spoke, the more afraid he became. His entire body was trembling.

Kong Rui’s expression became a little strange.

A cultivation technique that sucked away one’s cultivation?

She had heard of this cultivation technique when she was in the Demon Abyss. There was indeed someone in the world who knew how to use such a cultivation technique, but that person was currently trapped in the Demon Abyss!

Because this cultivation technique was evil and killed others to obtain cultivation, it was called a demonic technique.

This cultivation technique should have been sealed in the Demon Abyss with the person who created it!

Could it be that someone else had created such a technique?

Kong Rui was baffled. The commotion outside the courtyard became even louder. After a while, the butler ran over.

He ran to Kong Rui and said respectfully, “Miss Ling’er, something happened in the residence tonight. The Patriarch asked me to tell you to rest in your room early and not go out!”

As the butler spoke, his face was filled with seriousness. “Also, no matter what you hear, ignore it. Rest well. There’s still a competition tomorrow!”

Kong Rui nodded in agreement.

The butler didn’t delay and immediately walked towards the courtyard door.

When he reached the door, he instructed the two servants, “Close the door properly. No one is to go out! Otherwise, you will be punished!”

The servant immediately bowed and accepted the order, not daring to say anything.

The butler walked out of the courtyard and hurried to his next destination.

Kong Rui stood at the door of the room as she looked at the tightly shut courtyard door. When she heard the commotion outside, her frown deepened.

But even if she wanted to know, the old men probably wouldn’t let her.

Now, she should rest well. Tomorrow’s competition and her little phoenix were more important!

Kong Rui had just taken two steps into the room when she saw Chao Bai appear in her room.

“How did you get in?” Kong Rui glared at Chao Bai, her expression turning ugly.

Chao Bai shrugged. “That’s not the question you should be asking now!”

Kong Rui frowned and said with a displeased expression, “This question is very important!”

If Chao Bai could enter and exit her room without her noticing, wouldn’t she have no personal space?!

Seeing Kong Rui’s serious expression, Chao Bai could only answer honestly, “It’s just a basic teleportation array.”

“Don’t use it in my room again!” Kong Rui said fiercely.

Chao Bai pursed his lips and looked unwilling.

“Huh?” Kong Rui raised her eyebrows. Clearly, she had no sympathy for Chao Bai despite his pitiful appearance.

“Alright! I won’t use it in your room!” Although Chao Bai was unwilling, he couldn’t resist Kong Rui.

Kong Rui rolled her eyes before sitting down in a chair. “Tell me, why are you in my room?”

Chao Bai looked out of the room. Kong Rui knew that he had also noticed the commotion outside.

“Don’t you want to know what happened to him?” Chao Bai sounded excited.

Of course, Kong Rui wanted to know, but she didn’t want to cause trouble for herself now, so she said stubbornly, “What’s the use of knowing those things?”

“I’m afraid only that old fellow from the Demon Abyss can use a cultivation technique that absorbs cultivation!” Chao Bai shook his head and said. It seemed that he was very familiar with the matters in the Demon Abyss.

“If that person’s cultivation was really sucked away by someone, I’m afraid the Demon Abyss will be criticized again!” Chao Bai’s gaze darted around Kong Rui’s face.

Kong Rui had naturally thought of this problem too. However, the Demon Abyss had been sealed for so long. Those people wouldn’t be so stupid as to think that the Demon Abyss’ demons had escaped, right?
