Chapter 103: Chapter 75: Going Home

Xu Qing finished speaking and, seeing Su Lianqing’s mind even more disarrayed, took immediate action, swiftly dismantling her limb joints and rendering her incapable of resistance.

She did possess some kung fu skills, but in Martial Arts, unless a female cultivator’s Cultivation Technique especially matched her own characteristics, it was hard for her to compete with men.

Despite Su Lianqing’s quick reactions, she was no match for Xu Qing’s superior kung fu, stronger Divine Soul, and his ability to cheat and deceive.

"Shameless!" Su Lianqing couldn’t help but curse.

Now that her physical body was restrained by Xu Qing, she dared not let her Divine Soul leave its shell.

Apart from cursing, she had no other options.

And she knew, as long as she still had value to him, he wouldn’t kill her; cursing allowed her to vent out some air of grievance.

"Miss Su, it’s not that I am unsympathetic to the feminine virtues, but your identity is special, and I want you to cooperate with me, which is why I had no choice," he said politely, but his mind kept the state of ’Absolute Focus’.

The opponent was a real demoness after all; should she find a chance to counterattack, the situation could escalate greatly.

Thus, the Yaksha King had been visualized by Xu Qing and was guarding beside Su Lianqing.

Should she show any sign of using Dao Skills, he would suppress her mercilessly.

Su Lianqing sensed this evil aura. Now reduced to a prisoner, she was like a dead pig not fearful of boiling water, not like at Wuding Prefecture where she dared not use her Divine Soul to scout around.

Briefly letting her Divine Soul out, she immediately saw the Yaksha King.

"The Five Great Demons!" Su Lianqing was shocked as her Divine Soul returned.

Just now, she had seen the image of the Yaksha King in Xu Qing’s eyes. Due to the oppression by Xu Qing’s Qi-Blood, she had no time to think deeply. And given the small size of the eyes, she couldn’t see clearly.

Now, through her Divine Soul, she truly saw the existence of the Yaksha King, the impact was completely different, and she immediately recognized the origin of the Yaksha King.

No wonder Elder Yun, before his death, loudly exclaimed, "Saint Heir harms me!"

She had previously made an unreliable guess, but did not expect this guess to actually be true.

Xu Qing indeed knew the Five Great Demon Gods Visualization Method.

She almost blurted out everything about the Lotus Sect, then asked Xu Sanyuan to burn some incense.

"She knows about the Five Great Demons?" Xu Qing couldn’t help but be curious; the Yaksha King was a fragment of the Five Great Demon Gods Visualization Method, and he had learned of it from the evaluation of the bronze mirror. He did not expect Su Lianqing to recognize it.

Because, after the Yaksha King stabbed Mother Yun, he was overwhelmed by evil thoughts and went straight to Marquis Wuding. Thus, Xu Qing did not hear Mother Yun’s last words through the perspective of the Yaksha King.

This was the disadvantage of the Yaksha King growing strong and easily losing control.

If it were Xu Qing himself, he would make sure the opponent was dead beyond doubt before leaving.

Xu Qing then gestured for Su Lianqing to let her Divine Soul out for communication.

Since Su Lianqing saw Xu Qing had cultivated the Five Great Demon Gods Visualization Method, she was even more astonished than Xu Qing and had no intention of hiding; under the Yaksha King’s watch, she let out her Divine Soul and discussed the relationship between the Five Great Demon Gods Visualization Method and the Lotus Sect.

This Divine Soul communication was very convenient and stealthy, without worry of eavesdropping.

Moreover, another advantage is that it is extremely difficult to hide emotions through Divine Soul. Thus, Xu Qing could use this to judge whether Su Lianqing was lying.

"So, the Five Great Demons are indeed a heritage of the Lotus Sect. How was it lost?"

"You can ask Elder Fang about that," Su Lianqing, being the Holy Maiden of the Luo Sect assigned to the Lotus Sect, certainly knew some insider information.

Xu Qing said lightly, "You tell me what you know, and naturally, I will go verify with Elder Fang."

Of course, he was bluffing Su Lianqing.

Anyway, it’s fine as long as he appeared unfathomably profound.

This also served to continuously create psychological pressure on Su Lianqing.

Su Lianqing assumed Xu Qing had connections with Elder Fang; after all, interactions between scholars, between seniors and outstanding juniors, were too common.

She even suspected that Xu Qing’s Visualization Method came from Elder Fang.

But this was in conflict with previous information, as according to reliable intelligence, the Five Great Demon Gods Visualization Method had been sent away by Elder Fang.

Could it be that Elder Fang had the capability to replicate those Visualization Methods himself?

It is known that cultivation of Visualization Methods, even when passed down from master to disciple, verbally from one to another, lacked a clear and explicit written or artistic representation of the essence.

Furthermore, cultivating Divine Soul was inherently very dangerous; if the transmission was not precise, it was very easy to devolve into madness.

That was also why the previous Sect Hierarch of the Lotus Sect couldn’t pass down the Five Great Demon Gods Visualization Method.

Besides, Su Lianqing received intelligence from Elder Yun last month stating that Marquis Wuding had found a clue to a Demon God Visualization Map, which was also the reason why Elder Yun served Marquis Wuding.

However, Su Lianqing did not find that item among Elder Yun’s personal belongings previously, not knowing whether Elder Yun had hidden it or if there was a problem at Marquis Wuding’s end and he never found it.

Her mind was full of curiosities, but Xu Qing would not offer explanations.

Now being completely at his mercy.

Su Lianqing could only honestly confess what she knew.

However, anything Xu Qing did not ask, she definitely would not disclose.

Xu Qing thus learned one thing, Elder Fang, in the eyes of these heretical and heterodox, was actually a top-notch Dao Skill master.

But how formidable a Dao Skill master’s Divine Soul Cultivation was, unless the Divine Soul was let out, others could not discern it.

This was plausible; if Elder Fang’s Cultivation wasn’t high, he couldn’t possibly seal the essence of the Demon God Map with a single seal.

It was just that Xu Qing himself currently lacked a specific framework of understanding in this area.

Luckily, he had Su Lianqing.
