Chapter 611: Chapter 305: A Familiar Demon
Yelü Miaomiao tossed the Jade Pendant back and, with her beautiful eyes fixed on the woman in black, said with a smile, "We saved you, senior. Shouldn’t you say some words of thanks?"
The woman in black looked down at the rope on her body and said indifferently,
"The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. In your hands, I am merely prey. What thanks are there to speak of."
Yelü Miaomiao clapped her hands lightly and said, "Speaking with senior is refreshing. Since you understand your situation, then... would you hand over the True Bone?"
The woman in black’s gaze swept back and forth between the two young women, and the corners of her mouth curled into a cold smile:
"The two of you girls are not bad in cultivation, but it’s a pity you don’t use your brains. The elder of the Yin Yang Sect obviously tricked you, claiming the True Bone was on me, but in fact, it’s not at all, and by now he has already gone to look for the treasure."
"Is that so."
Upon hearing this, Yelü Miaomiao said with a smile, "Since the True Bone isn’t on you, senior, it means you’re of no use to us anymore. Do you have any last words?"
The woman in black looked proud: "You dare to kill me?"
However, no sooner had the woman spoken than she was choked by the neck by Yelü Miaomiao, the intense feeling of suffocation overwhelming her in an instant.
The woman tried to struggle but could only emit a low, intermittent moan.
"Don’t kill her!"
Qu Hongling’s pretty face changed, and she quickly spoke up.
After all, she was a fellow sect member of her sworn sister, and she did not want to brew more grudges.
But Yelü Miaomiao, as if she hadn’t heard, lifted the woman straight up, her fingers tightening around the woman’s neck, each inch of skin feeling the pressure from her palm.
Seeing this, Qu Hongling instinctively wanted to stop her.
However, at that moment, Yelü Miaomiao secretly gestured to her, and the girl was startled but then instantly understood.
Qu Hongling feigned displeasure and said to Yelü Miaomiao:
"You’ve killed enough people already, always so hasty each time. Even if she’s no longer useful, we can still use the ’Cloudy Abyss Divine Skill’ to drain her power first, at least not wasting it."
As she spoke, a black mist similar to fireworks emerged from the palm of the young girl, emanating an ice-cold aura.
The pupils of the woman in black contracted slightly.
Cloudy Abyss Divine Skill?
Could these two girls be from the Demon Clan’s Ghost Gu Forest?
Yelü Miaomiao said coldly, "We are short on time; we don’t have the luxury to waste our energy on her."
Qu Hongling shook her head helplessly and said to the woman in black:
"Senior, everyone who comes to the forbidden area of the Myriad Phenomena God Sect is here to kill for treasure. Do you think that just relying on the name of the Xuanji Sword Sect will scare us?
We don’t have time to dilly-dally with you. You have two choices.
First, we drain your power and then kill you.
Second, we cooperate. You take your treasures, and we get what we want. How about it?"
After she finished speaking, Qu Hongling gestured for Yelü Miaomiao to loosen the grip a bit.
The woman in black took a breath and, staring at Qu Hongling, more precisely at the black ’flame’ in her palm, after confirming it was the sinister skill ’Cloudy Abyss Divine Skill,’ a trace of apprehension appeared in her eyes.
In both the Demon Clan and Human Clan, sects were divided between righteous and evil.
She was not afraid of the likes of Sky Demon Sect or Thousand Beasts Forest, but she was quite wary of evil sects like Ghost Gu Forest and Blood Spirit Cave.
Such demons do not hold onto any sense of morality or sentimentality.
Seeing the woman waver, Qu Hongling struck while the iron was hot and said:
"Senior, the people of the Myriad Phenomena God Sect will not stand idly by and watch as we take their treasures. The longer we linger here, the more dangerous it is for both you and me. The True Bone is on you, but we can’t find it. It’s not a solution to keep dragging this on, right?"
"Cooperate with you? Once the treasure vault is opened, I’ll probably become a corpse, right?" the woman in black scoffed.
Despite her mocking words, it was clear that the woman was considering bargaining.
Qu Hongling laughed, "You can rest assured about that. The True Bone is on you, and there’s no need to hand it over to us. At least the initiative is in your hands. Once the treasure vault is opened, the Myriad Phenomena God Sect will definitely attack us. With your cultivation, escaping wouldn’t be difficult."
The woman in black was internally struggling.
After hesitating for a moment, she finally nodded lightly: "Alright, then I’ll cooperate with you."
Although beings of the Demon Clan were not trustworthy, the chance to enter the forbidden area was a rare opportunity, and just as the other party said, the longer they delayed, the worse it was, so she had to take a risk and make a bet.
...
Half an hour later, the three arrived at the entrance of the treasure vault in the forbidden area.
A shocking and horrifying scene suddenly came into view.
One could see the disarray all over the place, with many bodies lying askew, their conditions ghastly, an unbearable sight to behold. These victims, some were missing limbs; others had maimed bodies, and some were even peeled alive into a single sheet of skin.
Among them were just those from the Yin Yang Sect who had previously surrounded the woman in black.
The elder’s right shoulder was violently torn apart, half his body shredded.
What surprised them the most was that the outer gate of the treasure vault was half-destroyed, seemingly chiseled open by something massive.
"What happened here?"
The bloody and gruesome scene made the three women gasp in shock, causing their scalps to tingle.
Qu Hongling said in amazement, "Could it be the doing of the Myriad Phenomena God Sect?"
The woman in black frowned deeply: "It doesn’t seem like it."
Yelü Miaomiao sent the Flower Fairy to inspect the surroundings and found no anomalies. But given such a bloodcurdling, eerie scene, they dared not proceed rashly.
Looking at the battered door, the woman in black clenched her teeth and said sternly, "We can’t worry about that now. If others enter the treasure vault before us, the things you and I want will be lost."
With that, the woman in black charged towards the door.
Clearly, the contents of the treasure vault were extremely important to her.
Yelü Miaomiao and Qu Hongling glanced at each other, nodded slightly, and followed cautiously.
Entering through the broken outer door, they found themselves in a great hall.
