Chapter 14 The Tragic Fate of the Second Uncle
Chapter 14 The Tragic Fate of the Second Uncle
For the next month, Lin Que would participate in every hunting operation.
Several hunting trips into the mountains allowed Lin Que to make rapid progress in combat skills, and even his cultivation level was steadily raised to the third level of Qi Gathering, while his combat awareness was also constantly improving.
Gradually, Lin Que was about to master the second move of the Azure Lotus Sword Technique, but to his regret, there was still no news of his second uncle, Zhang Mengde.
He had asked the village chief for help before, but several months had passed, and even after he went into the mountains, there was still no news. Lin Que guessed that his chances of survival were very slim.
These speculations still saddened Lin Que, considering he was his second uncle after all.
......
On the mainland, in the woodshed of a certain sect, someone was constantly chopping wood and starting a fire.
While chopping wood, he complained, "Damn it! They actually made me chop wood, start a fire, and cook. I hope they don't let me go out. If I go out and achieve some success in my cultivation, I'll wipe you all out!"
"Oh! My poor nephew! Where are you? Your uncle misses you so much! I should never have gone to rob that damned tomb."
That's right! This person is Zhang Mengde.
When Zhang Mengde was taken back to the sect by two stunningly beautiful women, he thought he had escaped a calamity by sheer luck.
Who knew!
They were taken back to a demonic sect called the Heavenly Demon Sect.
Later, I learned that the two stunningly beautiful women were actually the sect leader and deputy sect leader of the Heavenly Demon Sect. They were twin sisters who cultivated demonic arts and acted without restraint.
They are masters of murder and robbery, yet they claim it's all for the sake of robbing the rich to help the poor, and that their sect is absolutely righteous.
Righteousness has turned into evil!
If it weren't for the fact that one day a group of men were seen being abducted into the door.
After being brought into the house, the screams never stopped.
It took them half a day to stop, and Zhang Mengde almost believed their lies.
The two stunningly beautiful sect leaders originally brought Zhang Mengde back to the sect because they saw the special nature of his bloodline.
She planned to use his bloodline to help her own cultivation after he achieved success in his cultivation.
Strangely, he was unable to practice any of the sect's techniques.
I don't know if it's because this is a demonic cultivation technique that Zhang Mengde is unable to practice.
Strangely enough, neither of the two sect leaders killed him. Instead, they let him stay in the sect as a menial disciple, where he was often bullied by other disciples, which was quite miserable.
"Damn it! You dog... Oh dear! Isn't this my most beloved Sect Master Lin? What brings you to the woodshed today?"
Zhang Mengde was chopping wood and cursing when he suddenly felt a fragrant breeze coming from behind him. He immediately turned around and looked up, and sure enough, he saw Lin Qing'er, the Grand Master of the Tianmei Sect, standing behind him.
He was standing with his arms crossed, his captivating eyes looking at me with a half-smile.
"Keep cursing! Keep cursing! Why did you stop? You start acting up as soon as I don't kill you, huh?"
Zhang Mengde quickly stood up, his face full of flattery: "How could that be? Sect Leader Lin is a saint who is higher than the heavens. In my heart, I naturally have the utmost respect for Sect Leader Lin."
"Like a surging river, it flows endlessly!"
"Since I came to the Heavenly Demon Sect, I have a great appetite and feel fantastic! I've never felt so comfortable before, and it's all thanks to you, Sect Master!"
"Hehehe~~~!!! Little one, you're quite the talker!" Lin Qing'er raised her hand to lightly cover her delicate red lips and laughed. "But I think you seem to be saying one thing and meaning another, don't you?"
"How could that be! My heart is as clear as heaven and earth, as clear as the sun and moon!" Zhang Mengde patted his chest and assured him.
Lin Qing'er smiled slightly, her red lips parted: "Alright, stop joking, I came to see you for something else."
"Sect Master, please tell me what it is! I guarantee I'll complete anything you ask!"
"Hehehe~! Then please...go die."
"Um...can I not go?"
Zhang Mengde immediately lowered his head, pleading with a bitter expression: "Sect Master, look! I may not have done anything meritorious, but I have worked hard. I'm the one who chops wood, starts fires, and cooks every day. Can you find me another job?"
Lin Qing'er stopped joking and said seriously, "I'm not teasing you anymore! Since I didn't kill you back then, you can rest assured. I'm here this time to discuss your cultivation."
"Since you cannot cultivate the sect's techniques, it means that your bloodline is extremely special."
"We can't tell what kind of bloodline you have, but we've come up with a way to activate your bloodline power."
"That means you should go and stay in the Heavenly Demon Cave!"
"Go inside and exercise to activate your blood circulation."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Mengde's expression changed drastically, and he shouted, "Sect Master, how is this any different from killing me! Can't I not go?!"
He had overheard the disciples of the sect mentioning the Heavenly Demon Cave; it was located in the back mountain of the Heavenly Demon Sect and was a training ground for the sect.
I've heard that it's incredibly dangerous inside, with not only many ferocious beasts but also some strange creatures.
Even disciples at the Qi Gathering stage would find it difficult to last three days inside, let alone an ordinary person like myself with no cultivation.
A sly smile flickered in Lin Qing'er's alluring eyes, and she said with a smirk, "Hehe~! That won't do! Your bloodline is special, so we have to give you a strong dose of medicine."
"Sect Master, look! We still need someone to help with the woodshed, otherwise who will chop wood, start a fire, and cook for you?"
"Don't worry, someone among those arrested today has taken your place."
"Anyway, your cooking isn't very good, so Qian'er brought back a chef this time."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Mengde's heart sank.
"Hehehe~! Just come with me obediently."
There was no other way but to go along, and the two of them arrived at the back mountain one after the other.
Zhang Mengde still hung his head, looking unwilling.
Unfortunately, this is already a done deal and cannot be changed.
Upon reaching the entrance to the Heavenly Demon Cave, one sees a massive, pitch-black cavern with a chilling wind blowing outwards, its howling sound quite eerie.
Zhang Mengde, his legs trembling, walked to the cave entrance. He glanced back at Lin Qing'er, but it was no use; Lin Qing'er was still looking at him with a charming smile.
"Go for it! My dear little brother, I believe in you! Go for it!"
"Add my ass!" With no other option, Zhang Mengde could only grit his teeth and walk into the cave, praying to find a safe place to hide.
As Zhang Mengde's figure gradually disappeared into the cave entrance, a figure suddenly appeared beside Lin Qing'er. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be her younger sister, Lin Qian'er.
"Sister! Do you think he can activate this bloodline? What if he dies as soon as he goes in?"
"Hehehe~! I'm rooting for him, and besides, you're here, aren't you?"
"Hmph! My sister is always causing trouble for others. Why don't you go and see him yourself?"
"There's no other way. This huge sect needs people to keep it running, and you're unwilling to help manage it, even though you're only a vice sect leader."
"Hehe! I don't have the talent to manage a sect. I'll just focus on cultivating. The rest is none of my business."
"So I guess I'll have to trouble my lovely little sister to look after him."
"Alright, alright! Leave it to me, but is his bloodline really that important to us?"
Lin Qing'er raised her beautiful face and looked up at the sky. Her brows furrowed slightly, and she said thoughtfully, "I have a vague feeling that one day in the future, there will be a great change in the Fengtian Continent."
"But coincidentally, at this time, we met someone with special bloodline, which made me wonder if it was fate."
“I have a feeling that whether the two of us can survive that upheaval in the future will be related to this person.”
The alluring voice hesitated for a moment before ringing out again.
"So I'm going to bet on him..."
