Chapter 704: Nascent Soul Stage Demonic Beast (Part 1)

However, Amalia’s gaze clearly suggested it was time for her to leave, so she reluctantly departed.

As soon as she left, Kenny Lin intentionally revealed an opening, allowing the Golden Core demonic beast to escape.

"How did I do? Not bad, right?" Kenny Lin asked Amalia, seeking praise as he approached her.

"It would have been better if you had done the same with the first one," Amalia replied with little sincerity.

"How about this: if I can understand your intentions without you having to say a word, doesn’t that mean we’re a perfect match?" Kenny Lin responded with a smug look.

Amalia’s lips curled into a slight smile, "Yes, we are really a perfect match."

She had merely given a slight glance, and Kenny Lin had instantly understood her intentions, even though his earlier actions had made this plan less subtle.

This made Kenny Lin even more smug, as if his invisible tail was wagging with pride.

Clearing obstacles for those major factions wasn’t their initial goal—they still needed to let one of the demonic beasts go.

Amalia had thought of this at the last moment; otherwise, she wouldn’t have let Kenny Lin deal with that first demonic beast so quickly.

Knowing Amalia’s plan, Kenny Lin asked, "How do we deal with that Nascent Soul stage demonic beast?"

Amalia pondered for a moment, "All the major factions are watching the treasure closely. When the time comes, there will undoubtedly be a chaotic battle. It will be nearly impossible for a human or devil prodigy to take on a late-stage Nascent Soul demonic beast alone. It’s likely that humans and the devil will join forces together. There’s no need for us to get involved."

"The Eight Stars Of Heavenly Jade Flower is in a crack in the cliff. Anyone who tries to pick it will be noticed," Kenny Lin mused, considering the possibility of making a move while others were distracted in battle.

Amalia’s eyes gleamed for a moment, "There’s actually something I’ve been curious about."

Kenny Lin’s casual expression suddenly became serious, "Are we thinking the same thing again?"

Amalia raised an eyebrow, "What are you thinking?"

Kenny Lin smirked, "That Nascent Soul stage demonic beast must know that the Eight Stars Of Heavenly Jade Flower is valuable. How could it stay hidden all this time? With its power, it could easily deter other demonic beasts and humans just by releasing its Nascent Soul stage pressure. So..."

"So, I suspect it’s guarding something even more valuable than the Eight Stars Of Heavenly Jade Flower."

They spoke in unison.

"See? I told you we’re really a perfect match," Kenny Lin said, brimming with self-satisfaction.

As usual, Amalia ignored his comment, "Let’s investigate first. Before that, let’s ask Renshu Chang about the exact time when the Eight Stars Of Heavenly Jade Flower will mature—we don’t want him to grow impatient."

Kenny Lin tossed the communication jade slip to her.

After a moment, the light on the jade slip finally stabilized.

"Martial Aunt, are you coming over? The Eight Stars Of Heavenly Jade Flower will mature in half a day."

Before they could ask, Renshu Chang had already answered the question they were about to ask.

Amalia smiled.

Kenny Lin frowned in dissatisfaction.

"This is what true understanding looks like," Amalia said deliberately to him.

"What?" Renshu Chang asked, feeling confused.

"I’m not talking to you," Amalia replied, "We have something to take care of right now, so we can’t come to you immediately. Are there people around you?" she asked.

Renshu Chang realized that she was about to tell him something that others shouldn’t hear, so he immediately looked around cautiously before whispering, "No, but I used the excuse of finding you nearby when I came out. If you don’t come back with me, the Divine Maiden Sect might get suspicious."

"It doesn’t matter, don’t worry about them," Amalia continued, "After the Eight Stars Of Heavenly Jade Flower matures, don’t rush out. There’s a late-stage Nascent Soul demonic beast nearby. It could appear at any moment."

"There’s actually a Nascent Soul stage demonic beast in the Double Cavern Secret Realm!" Renshu Chang exclaimed in shock.

Amalia remained calm, "The Double Cavern Secret Realm has existed for many years, so it’s not unusual for a late-stage Nascent Soul demonic beast to be here. There might even be ones with greater power."

Renshu Chang quickly regained his composure, "Alright, I understand what to do. But, Martial Aunt, the matter you’re handling—is it related to finding that Nascent Soul stage demonic beast?"

Since he had already guessed, Amalia didn’t hide it.l, "Kenny and I had planned to check it out. The ones who know about this matter also include disciples from the Light Demon Sect. It was they who told us this information."

"Light Demon Sect? Can their information be trusted? Why would they be so kind? Could they be deliberately leading you into a trap?"

It was common for those people on the righteous path to distrust demonic cultivators, so Renshu Chang’s suspicion was understandable.

Amalia smiled and said, "Even if it’s not reliable, we can’t act recklessly. And how would they know that we aren’t after the Eight Stars Of Heavenly Jade Flower but are instead going after the Nascent Soul demonic beast? Let’s be honest, even if they were lying in ambush to attack us, do you think they have the strength to succeed?"

"That’s true," Renshu Chang replied, recalling the terrifying combat abilities of the two of them.

If the disciples of the Light Demon Sect tried to ambush them, it was more likely that they would end up being completely wiped out instead.

Thinking this way, Renshu Chang was no longer worried about them.

Perhaps what he should be concerned about was whether he and his fellow disciples could avoid the Nascent Soul demonic beast and stay alive.

"Just be careful," Renshu Chang reminded them despite his thoughts.

"Got it," Amalia replied, then cut off the communication.

On the other side, after reuniting with her companions, Rani Huang recounted how the disciples of the Green Lotus Sect had saved her and how she had repaid them by informing them about the Nascent Soul demonic beast.
