Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Liao Sisi, who was originally struggling violently, suddenly paused when she heard that. The next moment, she blurted out a retort, “Impossible, Grandpa would never betroth me to you!”

Back then, her grandfather had clearly said that he valued Mu Tianyan’s potential more and agreed with her choice to become Mu Tianyan’s Dao companion.

So, it was absolutely impossible for him to betroth her to Helian Qiguang!

“Why not?”

Helian Qiguang held Liao Sisi’s face with both hands and forced her to look straight at him. “Is Junior Sister still thinking about Mu Tianyan?”

Hearing the words “Mu Tianyan” from Helian Qiguang, Liao Sisi’s heart skipped a beat and disbelief appeared in her eyes.

Apparently, she didn’t expect Helian Qiguang to see through her feelings for Mu Tianyan.

Seeing her reaction, Helian Qiguang was even more certain that his guess was right. The coldness in his eyes couldn’t help but intensify.

“Master really has a good plan. He wants to take advantage of the Helian family but also wants to gain something without risking anything of one’s own. What a good plan. Unfortunately, Master never expected that Mu Tianyan wouldn’t have such thoughts about you, Junior Sister.”

Helian Qiguang held Liao Sisi’s face with his hand and pinched her chin instead, so hard that Liao Sisi couldn’t help but cry out in pain.

However, Helian Qiguang wasn’t moved at all. His strength didn’t weaken at all.

“Junior Sister, I’ve already told you that I’m the only one who’s truly good to you, but why didn’t you believe me?” Confusion appeared in Helian Qiguang’s eyes, as if he didn’t understand why Liao Sisi wasn’t willing to believe him.

“Oh right, Junior Sister, do you not believe me because I’m a demonic cultivator?”

Helian Qiguang said to himself, as if he didn’t care if Liao Sisi replied at all. “But Junior Sister, you’re also a fiendish cultivator. We’re the same kind of people to begin with. Why don’t you believe me? One more thing. Junior Sister, you’ve wronged me. The demonic energy on you isn’t my doing. Master secretly helped you convert your spiritual power into demonic energy a few months before you entered the mystic realm. Those so-called orthodox people didn’t notice it because Master used a mystic technique to seal the demonic energy in your body. As for me, I’m just helping you unseal it.”

Helian Qiguang’s words undoubtedly contained a lot of information for Liao Sisi, so much that she couldn’t bear it at all.

And Helian Qiguang didn’t care if she could withstand that information at all. He only wanted to do what he had always wanted to do to Liao Sisi.

Not long after, Liao Sisi’s desperate voice and Helian Qiguang’s satisfied and happy groan sounded in this underground cave.

Two days later, in the mystic realm.

After the calamity at the bottom of the cliff, the cultivators who were still alive had basically woken up. At this moment, they were discussing the calamity that happened two days ago.

“Do you still remember if the demonic cultivators won or if our orthodox side won?”

“My last consciousness was only the scene of the people from the Martial Arts Department of the Hongtian Academy fighting with the two demonic cultivators. I’m not sure what happened after that.”

“I heard that our orthodox side won in the end. There seem to be only a few fiendish cultivators left. They shouldn’t be a problem.”

“That’s right. I also heard that those people from the Martial Arts Department of Hongtian Academy got the treasure under the black river. It seems to be the treasure that made us lose our minds and be controlled.”

“Isn’t… Isn’t that a demonic treasure? Aren’t those people from the Martial Arts Department afraid of being affected by the demonic treasure and falling into the demonic path in the end?”
