Cangming Sect, Youluo Hall, outside the door of the Blood Kitchen.
A girl in a light pink dress stood there. She was about 15 or 16 years old.
Her hair was styled into a lively Flying Immortal bun. She had almond-shaped eyes and rosy cheeks. She was beautiful, and her skin seemed to be embedded with immortal jade. It was fair and flawless, making one can't help but wish to caress her.
At this moment, under her floral dress, the young girl rubbed her legs, which were wrapped in white silky threads, uneasily. It was as if something very serious was weighing on her mind.
"Master has always been extremely meticulous and intelligent. Could it be that… he has already discovered something, that is why… he hasn't responded to me?"
The girl's sparkling eyes drooped down uneasily, and her long eyelashes fluttered.
Gradually, her eyes turned red and teary.
"That's not right! I… Why do I still call him Master in my heart?! My two senior sisters clearly told me his true colors long ago! He nurtured me from the beginning to the end to raise me as a sacrifice!"
"Master, he… No! That person! He! He has never treated Xing'er sincerely!"
"In his heart, Xing'er is no different from the two senior sisters, no different from everyone in this world! They are just tools to be used!"
"He will always be the high and mighty Venerable Demon Qingling, someone who will disregard everyone and abandon everything for the sake of longevity!"
"Xing'er… is nothing."
"But…"
"But even though I know this, I still can't bear to part with him… Wuwuwuwu…"
In an instant, countless memories of the past flooded the girl's thoughts.
She seemed to see the tall and mighty black-robed figure again.
The man who had gently held her hand and given her a home.
The young girl could no longer hold back her tears anymore. Her tears fell like rain, ruining her beautiful face.
A moment later.
Trembling, she took out a glass-colored porcelain bottle from her pocket.
This was something second senior sister and senior brother Xiao Chen next door, had given her.
Once that person consumes it…
"Kill him, Xing'er."
"Kill that man and everything will be over."
"All three of us have secretly admired him back then, and now… Who doesn't want to kill him personally?"
At this moment, second senior sister Tantai Lingyin's choked voice sounded in the girl's mind again.
She finally made a decision.
She stretched out her pair of snowy-white hands and prepared to push open the door of the Blood Kitchen.
If nothing unexpected happened.
In the next moment, she could see the man called the Venerable Demon Qingling expressionlessly tinkering with those crazy sick masterpieces!
At this moment.
A familiar voice said, "Come in, Xing'er."
Upon hearing this, Cen Xing'er's beautiful face paled, and her entire body seemed to be frozen.
She didn't know if it was her imagination.
She felt that this time…
That high and mighty man's voice actually carried a trace of…
Gentleness!?
…
…
Cen Xing'er trembled as she pushed open the door and walked into the dark room.
"Greetings, Master!"
The young girl stepped forward to the center of the hall and bowed. She didn't dare look at the cold and terrifying demonic shadow on the throne.
There was no response.
The man who was respected by the demonic path and who made the entire Cloud Continent tremble in fear did not say a word.
In the dark room, only the girl's uneasy breathing could be heard.
[Cen Xing'er! You have to pull yourself together! There's nothing to be afraid of!]
[Senior brother Xiao Chen next door, swears on his life that Master… No, Bai Qingling is already severely injured!]
[Even if he still has energy left! That Ethereal Soul Devouring Powder will also annihilate him and prevent him from entering the cycle of reincarnation!]
Cen Xing'er clenched her fists tightly and reassured herself.
Seeing that the other party still had no reaction,
The girl's eyebrows twitched as she finally thought of something.
"Master, I was rude."
As the girl spoke, she slowly removed her shawl, revealing her fair and smooth shoulders…
As her shawl was completely removed, a Beast Taming Collar with bells embedded in it was revealed on her neck.
Then, the girl slowly took off her outerwear…
When her fair and tender arms were completely exposed, there was only a sheer shirt left…
At this point, the girl still did not stop!
He watched as she tied up her bun with a jade hairpin. The back of her snow-white neck suddenly appeared.
Then.
She prostrated herself on the ground with her limbs facing down, like an obedient kitten.
After doing all this…
Only then did she raise her beautiful oval face and say weakly…
"Xing'er greets… Master."
'Yes?'
'What the hell is a master?'
Bai Feng, who had an indifferent expression the entire time, was also surprised.
He had originally planned to act like an expert by remaining silent!
Unexpectedly!
This girl was playing such a trick!
He stared straight at the girl beneath him.
He finally remembered some of the plots about Cen Xing'er!
It turned out that Cen Xing'er came from an illustrious family in the higher realms. She had a one-in-a-billion "Ghost Repelling Spirit Body" and could repel spirits and ghost soldiers. Her potential was limitless!
Therefore, after the demon Bai Qingling learned about her background, he decisively took her in as a disciple. Over the years, he had been mentally enslaving and suppressing this little girl, trying to make her become his slave willingly!
When her soul was completely tamed, he would use a forbidden technique to forcefully devour the girl's Ghost Repelling Spirit Body and incorporate it as his own!
[You're even scheming against such an adorable little girl! Bai Qingling, you're worse than a beast!]
Although he knew that the so-called "predecessor" was just an illusory persona and didn't exist, Bai Feng still couldn't help but curse.
As an upright young man of the Earth, he naturally couldn't accept such a perverted behavior!
In fact he couldn't wait to use supreme love to warm this lost young girl!
Bai Feng calmed down, narrowed his eyes, and said indifferently,
"Xing'er, why are you here?"
"Master… Master, another batch of hundred-year-old spirit herbs in the Spirit Herb Garden has ripened. I specially came here to offer the Nine Revolutions Demon Fortifying Pill that Master asked for a while ago."
Cen Xing'er lowered her head. Her small hands trembled as she took out a glass-colored pill bottle from her bosom.
Then, step by step, she moved forward toward the supreme throne on her knees and handed over the pill bottle with both hands!
"Oh? You're done so quickly? Can the quality of the pills be guaranteed?"
Bai Feng did not reach out to take it. Instead, he pretended to be indifferent and asked.
Upon being asked this question, the girl immediately broke out in a cold sweat. Her legs rubbed against each other uneasily again, and the iron rings on her ankles clanged.
"Reporting to Master! In the past two months, Xing'er has been at the pill shop and cultivating day and night with a few elders of the Blood Refining Hall. She doesn't dare to be negligent at all! I believe…"
Cen Xing'er mustered her courage and looked up at the handsome man on the throne for the first time.
"The quality of the completed pill is at least Grade 7! Master, please rest assured!"
"Grade 7?"
Bai Feng looked at this bottle of "Ethereal Soul Devouring Pill" that was used to end his life and said coldly, "Why do I sense a nine-colored red cloud at the mouth of this bottle? This Grade 9 pill is probably not something you can refine."
"It's the effect of the supplementary medicine!"
"When it was out of the oven, Xing'er added a little bit of Cauliflower Flower, Void Spirit Flower, and Kun Peng Powder that can improve the quality!"
Cen Xing'er lowered her head and blurted out the excuse that her senior sister had prepared for her in advance.
"You added auxiliary materials?"
"Yes!"
"Did you do it on purpose or accidentally?" Bai Feng raised his eyebrows, still having no intention of taking the pill.
"Yes…"
The young girl gritted her teeth. "It was on purpose! Master, don't worry. Even with the addition of the supplementary ingredients… Xing'er still tried her best to preserve more than 90% of the original medicinal effect!"
"If the Master doesn't believe me, you can try! If the medicinal effect is reduced by even half, Xing'er… will be willing to accept severe punishment!"
"Is that so?"
Bai Feng took the porcelain bottle from the girl expressionlessly. With a flip of his wrist, a round greenish-brown medicinal pill immediately flew out of the bottle.
He placed it in his palm and looked at it quietly without saying a word.
In the Dark Hall.
The master and his disciple, one seated and one kneeling, looking at each other in silence.
The atmosphere was terrifyingly quiet.
"M-Master, do you want to take this pill immediately?"
Cen Xing'er's red lips trembled slightly. In the end, she could not help but speak.
To her, this was the most difficult moment of her life!
On one hand, she did not want to disappoint her two senior sisters. She wanted to end everyone's pain!
On the other hand, the memories of her childhood filled her head again!
No matter how evil the person in front of him was and how he had harmed the world, he was still the master who raised him!
The girl covered her face with her hands and said in a slightly choked voice, "Why don't… Xing'er take this pill back and refine it again before sending it over to Master?"
There was no response.
The tall black-robed figure turned around without any emotions.
After an unknown period of time.
A heavy sigh sounded in the dark room.
"Xing'er."
"What did I do to make you hate me so much that…"
"You can't wait to kill your master? Hmm?"
