Chapter 49: You had no choice and got shown off again


    Which one of the three saintesses of the Demon Pce did you meet?


    On the te, a few lines of text appeared. Li Su looked at the Sect Leader as they both returned to the underground chamber. Li Su activated the stone b using his own blood, stopping the Sect Leader from using hers. He believed a man bleeding a little was no issue.


    The Sect Leader nned to pose as a monk named Bai, iming that he encountered one of the saintesses from the Heavenly Demon Pce during the search for the blood venerable. The saint discovered the holy decree and sent people to hunt him down, resulting in a narrow escape.


    I dont know her. She was dressed in ck, Li Su replied, making up the answer.


    In truth, the demon cultivator didnt cooperate like the Bai n cultivator and revealed only some information after being provoked using various methods by the people from the Flying Immortal Sect. He remained tight-lipped about other matters.


    The Sect Leader knew the reason behind the silence. The demon cultivators had no inhibitions and wouldnt hesitate to kill even their own if necessary. To control them, some major demon sects imnted certain measures in the souls of their disciples.


    The demon cultivator was particrly arrogant, suggesting that once the saintess from the Heavenly Demon Pce arrived, the Flying Immortal Sect would be doomed. The Sect Leader didnt know much about the Heavenly Demon Pce, prompting this journey.


    The Sect Leader nodded upon seeing the words written by Li Su on the te.


    Li Su withdrew his spiritual power, and the text on the te faded away.


    After wearing ck clothes? Does he have a moon mark on his forehead when casting spells? More words appeared on the te after a while.


    Li Su responded with a simple Yes.


    Hmph, young kid, you think you can deceive me? Youre still too inexperienced. The next line on the te caused the Sect Leaders expression to change.


    He saw through!


    The Sect Leader said that the opponent had seen through their use of the stone b, realizing that the one using it wasnt the monk named Bai.


    These demon cultivators were extremely cunning, detecting something amiss with just a few words.


    It must be rted to the blood, the Sect Leader remarked.


    Li Su gazed at the stone b, realizing that cultivator Bais blood likely activated it. If he used his blood to activate it, the other party would detect the difference.


    Dont worry, Sect Leader, leave it to me, said Li Su confidently.


    Although the other party saw through the ruse, Li Su remainedposed. He quickly manipted the stone b.


    Thats right, the person named Bai has already been killed by me. Now, you can only rely on me to escape. You have no other choice! After bringing forth this statement, Li Su waited for it to dim for over ten seconds before manipting the te again.


    If you dont cooperate, I willpletely seal off the underground passage, and no one will find this ce.


    How much longer do you have to live? A few hundred years? A thousand years? Even if its ten thousand years, its useless. You will be trapped here to die, he added.


    Li Su continued to manipte several more sentences.


    Beside him, the Sect Leaders eyes brightened. Li Sus persistence had hit the demon cultivators weak spot. This person had waited countless years, only to encounter a monk named Bai. This ce was incredibly hard to find. If Li Su truly destroyed the underground passage, he might end up trapped and die in the killing array.


    Finally, after several minutes, writing appeared on the te. Interesting. Its been a long time since I met anyone who dared to threaten me like this.


    Li Su remained silent, and the Sect Leader disyed great patience.


    After a few more minutes passed and Li Su still hadnt responded, the other party couldnt hold on any longer.


    What do you want to know? appeared on the te.


    Li Su still didnt answer. Instead, he stored the stone b in a storage bag and flew a mile away with the Flying Immortal Sword.


    This stone tablet had lost its connection.


    Sect Leader, lets wait for a few days, Li Su suggested.


    He wasnt in a hurry. Instead, he wanted to make the other party anxious, letting them know that his fate rested in Li Sus hands. Waiting here for a few days would also allow Li Su to continue studying the killing array.


    Alright, the Sect Leader replied, settling herself on a white cushion.


    Li Su, I havent taught you much all these years. If you have any doubts about your cultivation in these few days, feel free to ask me, she offered.


    Taking this chance, Li Su immediately asked some questions, not about cultivation but rted to certain techniques. While the system rewarded him with cultivation, he also learned some techniques on his own due to his goodprehension and determination.


    However, advanced techniques often came with doubts and questions. So, Li Su spent a day asking and the Sect Leader patiently exining.


    Thank you, Sect Leader, Li Su expressed his gratitude.


    Li Su, improving your cultivation is fundamental. Do you have any doubts about cultivation? the Sect Leader inquired.


    Dont worry about my cultivation, Sect Leader. Let me tell you a secret, Li Su said, leaning closer in a mysterious manner.


    The Sect Leader emitted a faint and alluring fragrance, a true deodorant that could only be smelled when one got close enough. It was the first time Li Su had experienced such a scent.


    Turning her head, the Sect Leader looked at Li Su with her bright eyes.


    Li Su then released his aura, revealing his progress. Sect Leader, as you can see, I have already reached the third level of the Golden Core stage.
