Chapter 263: Chapter 157: Three Other Shore Flowers

The crimson wooden armor seemed as if it had been soaked in a blood pool, emanating a potent aura of violence and wickedness. The intricate patterns carved on its surface sketched out bizarre designs, resembling flowers from the other shore.

The Demon Venerable stretched out slender and fair fingers, lightly touching the crimson wooden armor.

Suddenly, the armor rippled with peculiar waves, and the patterns, as if alive, writhed and spread. Gradually, they peeled off from the armor’s surface, forming a pale red flower from the other shore.

The flower from the other shore floated in the air, its color enchantingly vibrant and vivid.

"Old friend, you’ve been waiting for me for a long time, haven’t you?"

As the Demon Venerable cradled the flower from the other shore in her palm, her beautiful eyes sparkled repeatedly, "You shouldn’t have seen me this early, what a pity. Someone let me down, so I had no choice but to arrange things ahead of time."

As the flower from the other shore slowly released a faint glow, strands of blood energy were drawn out from all the corpses in Muling County.

Whether they were demons or cultivators, their bodies instantly shriveled as if drained of water, rapidly withering into emaciated husks clinging to wrinkled skeletons... The blood energy intertwined from all directions, converging upon the flower from the other shore.

In an instant, the flower from the other shore grew even more resplendent, emitting an enthralling, ghostly glow.

The Demon Venerable waved her hand lightly.

The flower from the other shore divided into three.

One resembled as if it had been dyed in ink from the Netherworld, enveloped by layers of dark miasma, exuding an aura of sinister and ferocity.

One was shrouded in pure white light, as pure as snow after a clearing storm, holy and flawless.

The remaining flower from the other shore was veiled in a hazy pink gauze, as if blushing with the most romantic red in the world, coquettishly reminiscent of swirling mists, filled with an enervating charm.

"Come out!"

The Demon Venerable suddenly shouted coldly.

A glamorous woman emerged from the shadows.

The woman’s appearance was not too stunning, but her figure was particularly voluptuous, especially her daring attire; a long dress of elegant green with a slit on the side revealed long and lustrous white thighs as she moved.

Below her neck was a clearly defined cleavage, majestic peaks, the kind that meant one couldn’t see their toes when looking down.

Her hair was extremely long, nearly reaching her ankles, undulating and fluttering with her steps.

She shared some qualities with the Demon Venerable.

"Blood Spirit Cave Master Lou Wanmo, greets the Demon Venerable," said the woman, kneeling respectfully on the ground, bowing her head.

The Demon Venerable sized up the woman, speaking indifferently, "Not bad, to cultivate my ’Heavenly Prison Skill’ to thirty percent is somewhat talented. I’ve heard people say you’ve given yourself a little nickname, ’Little Demon Venerable’?"

"Little demon presumes to stealthily learn the great Demon Venerable’s divine skill, a crime deserving of death."

In the face of the Demon Venerable’s praise, Lou Wanmo showed no joy, instead, her face turned pale, her delicate body trembling slightly, revealing fear and unease, even the mountains at her neck trembled.

The Demon Venerable waved her hand, "That’s enough, the ability to learn demonstrates your skill and shows you’re suited for cultivation. I’m assigning a task to you. From today onward, your Blood Spirit Cave must fully cooperate with that young miss from the Qu family in reorganizing the Demon Clan. However, externally you must continue to maintain the illusion of opposition to the Sky Demon Sect, and this matter must not be disclosed to that girl surnamed Qu. Make sure there is a difference between how you deal with things internally and externally."

Seeing that Lou Wanmo made no response, the Demon Venerable’s lips curled into a mocking smile, speaking lightly, "What’s the matter? Unwilling, are you? Does Blood Spirit Cave also want to replace Sky Demon Sect?"

"The little demon wouldn’t dare!"

Feeling the overwhelming press of the indomitable aura, Lou Wanmo was extremely panic-stricken and quickly bowed deeply.

The Demon Venerable, with his hands clasped behind his back, gazed intently at the other’s curvaceous and alluring body with a deep look in his eyes, and laughed, "It’s good to be ambitious, it shows you have a drive to improve, otherwise you would not have lived until now. Once I return to the Demon Clan, I will then teach you the last volume of the ’Heavenly Prison Skill’ and take you to cultivate on the ice plain."

A pie in the sky?

Who could surpass the Demon Venerable in making such promises?

Lou Wanmo’s expression became extraordinarily excited, "The little demon will definitely cooperate fully with Mr. Qu."

"There’s one more thing."

The Demon Venerable said indifferently, "There’s a girl who is quite remarkable, take her under your wing and cultivate her carefully. Qu Hongling may be decisive in action, but sometimes she is inevitably entangled by her emotions, too soft-hearted. Therefore, someone is needed to do the dirty work for her."

"May I know who is the girl the Venerable one has taken a liking to?"

Jealousy and envy surged in Lou Wanmo’s heart as he asked with curiosity.

The Demon Venerable waved his hand lightly.

A black netherworld flower flew on its own to face Lou Wanmo.

"It will lead you to her, but now is not the right time, she still needs to be tested. You just wait. If the girl can’t make it through, then there’s no need to bother with her,"

the Demon Venerable said indifferently.

Having said that, he waved his hand to signal the other to leave.

Lou Wanmo did not dare to ask more questions, carefully picking up the black netherworld flower. He stood up respectfully and left, his figure vanishing into the night.

Not long after Lou Wanmo left, a woman in red, Mengniang, appeared before him.

"Mengniang pays her respects to the Demon Venerable." The woman knelt on the ground.

"Rise."

"Thank you, Venerable one."

Mengniang stood up, her charming eyes filled with admiration and awe.

Looking at the woman radiating a seductive, serpentine charm, the Demon Venerable’s lips curled into a sardonic smile. He stepped forward leisurely, his slender and fair jade finger lifting up the other’s sharp and delicate chin as he spoke calmly:

"As the first demon to awaken after the revival of the Demon Energy, in a sense, you could be considered an ’ancestor’, pitifully though, trapped by a sense of gratitude, you wasted the opportunity. Now that your demon soul’s origin has been destroyed and you’ve lost your freedom, finding Jiang Mo with his special half-dead constitution is quite lucky indeed."

"Mengniang is ashamed, having missed the god-given opportunity,"

realizing the other could see through her current plight, Mengniang felt a sourness in her heart and a glimmer of faint hope emerged. She once again knelt down, "Mengniang earnestly begs the Venerable one to grant her a way out. If Mengniang could regain her freedom, she would always remember your kindness and never forget it in all her life."
