Chapter 427: Chapter 429: Breakthrough to Advanced Innate (Part 2)
“Oh?” Hong Yun’s gaze swept toward Wu Yi and he spoke lightly, “You know?”
“Indeed,” Wu Yi nodded, “This Miss Lan Yue is the reincarnation of the Moon Venerate, but there has been a mishap causing her spiritual power to be lesser than before. We are now trying to restore her spiritual power, all we need is a soul.”
As he spoke, his gaze swept toward Mu Ruyue and he sneered, “This woman not only caused the death of the entire family of the Moon Venerate but also refuses to surrender her soul to the Moon Venerate. The Moon Venerate so values her soul, it is her fortune to be considered thus, yet she is so unappreciative, completely disregarding the bigger picture!”
In Wu Yi’s view, one should prioritize the bigger picture, yet she only cared about her own interests.
“What’s more important, this woman has also teamed up with the Dean to impersonate the great name of the Moon Venerate, foolishly attempting to deceive the world,” Wu Yi’s lips curled up coldly, his gaze ominous.
Hong Yun’s expression gradually darkened, as dark as the sky before a storm. However, this look in the eyes of Wu Yi made him feel that his words had had their effect, ensuring that these venerable ones would surely not let this woman off this time!
“You’re called Lan Yue?” Hong Yun raised his eyes toward Lan Yue, frowning, “What is your relationship with Zi Feng who caused the death of the Moon Venerate?”
Lan Yue’s face turned pale, her look of astonishment fixated on the withered face of Hong Yun.
“Patriarch, since you said it’s the person who caused the death of the Moon Venerate, then she must definitely be related as a victim,” Wu Yi strangely looked at Hong Yun, frowning in confusion.
At this moment, Qi Rong felt something was amiss, though she didn’t speak out as before. Yet even she herself didn’t know where this strange feeling was coming from.
It always felt that it wasn’t as simple as Wu Yi was saying…
“You shut your mouth!” Hong Yun glared coldly at Qi Rong, the smile in his eyes slowly disappearing, then he raised his head again to look at the pale-faced Lan Yue and huffed, “Girl, answer me, what is your relationship with Zi Feng! I sense that she forcibly enhanced your strength, making your power jump from a Ninth-level Martial Artist directly to Innate Perfection, but forcibly enhancing strength always has its repercussions, your strength may remain at this level for life, unable to advance further.”
All secrets were revealed by Hong Yun, causing Lan Yue to tremble.
She indeed had her strength forcibly enhanced, but her master had told her that by devouring the soul of Mu Ruyue, she could not only gain her spiritual power but also continue her cultivation, which is why she desperately wanted to obtain it!
But now it seemed she was about to fail just at the brink of success…
Lan Yue trembled uncontrollably; she had never imagined why these old folks would suddenly show up when she was just about to succeed?
Just one step away!!!
If Wu Yi still couldn’t understand now, then he really was a fool. He stared dumbfounded at the angry face of Hong Yun, his mind failing to catch up.
What… what was going on, wasn’t Senior Qi Rong saying she was the Moon Venerate? Then what was this situation?
A twenty-something-year-old at Innate Perfection indeed was a genius, today’s Mu Ruyue had only reached Intermediate Innate, but if this genius of Great Perfection had forcibly boosted her strength, yet could never advance further, then that would indeed be a separate matter.
After all, there’s nothing in this world that increases strength without needing any sacrifice.
Qi Rong, unable to believe it, turned her head to look at Lan Yue’s pale complexion, in this moment, she understood everything, and the eyes, cloudy with turmoil, welled up with deep pain.
