Liu Shunyi promptly handed over the blood puppet master’s Storage Bag to Ji Suying.

Ji Suying was taken aback.

“Aren’t you concerned that I might truly covet your Storage Bag?”

Liu Shunyi shook his head.

“Senior Sister, please don’t jest. As the Eldest Senior Sister of Hidden Sword Peak, you’ve seen it all. Even if the blood puppet master had valuable possessions, I doubt they would impress you.”

Ji Suying smiled.

“You’re absolutely right!”

She immediately opened the Storage Bag and began searching through its contents.

Eventually, she found a small box.

Without opening it, Ji Suying simply removed the box from the bag. Then, she transferred everything else back into another Storage Bag and handed it to Liu Shunyi.

Liu Shunyi quickly accepted it.

“Are you wondering why I went to this extra effort?”

Liu Shunyi shook his head. “Not at all!”

Ji Suying took a deep breath.

“Yes, you are! Say it!”

Liu Shunyi hesitated for a moment before conceding.

Alright then…

This senior sister’s old habit was surfacing again.

Liu Shunyi feigned confusion and asked, “Senior Sister, I am indeed puzzled. Why would you go to such trouble?”

Ji Suying nodded with satisfaction.

“Hmm, I received information just now that although the blood puppet master is dead, his Storage Bag contains a Tainted Object. The Heavenly God Cult seeks to reclaim this vile artifact.”

“Therefore, carrying the blood puppet master’s Storage Bag makes it highly unsafe for you!”

Instantly, Liu Shunyi understood her concern.

However, he promptly bowed in gratitude.

“Many thanks, Senior Sister!”

Ji Suying sighed.

“Although I’ve taken away the blood puppet master’s Storage Bag, I cannot guarantee that members of the Heavenly God Cult won’t still target you. You must be extra cautious in the coming days.”

Liu Shunyi nodded.

“Thank you for your warning, Senior Sister. I’ll keep that in mind.”

Ji Suying looked at him skeptically.

“Why do I feel like you’re not even slightly worried?”

Liu Shunyi momentarily froze.

Liu Shunyi hastily shook his head.

“No, no, no! I may appear calm, but inside, I’m incredibly anxious!”

Ji Suying nodded reassuringly.

“Don’t worry too much. Regardless of their audacity, the Heavenly God Cult wouldn’t dare cause trouble within Qinglian Sect’s territory. However, when you enter the Heavenly Fire Secret Realm, be cautious. There might be one or two Cultivators at the Peak Foundation Establishment stage among the participants.”

Liu Shunyi acknowledged her advice with a nod.

“I understand, Senior Sister. But, if I may ask, what exactly is inside this small box?”

Liu Shunyi observed Ji Suying closely examining the tiny box, genuinely curious about its contents.

Ji Suying maintained a composed expression.

“It’s a type of evil aura. If a person comes into contact with it, they’ll succumb to wicked thoughts and transform into ruthless devils, capable of indiscriminate killing.”

“Moreover, there’s something terrifying about this aura – it rapidly grows by absorbing a person’s evil intentions.”

“Due to these properties, such artifacts are highly valued by Demon Cultivators and other evil practitioners!”

As she spoke, Ji Suying swiftly cast several seals on the small box.

After completing the seals, Ji Suying placed the box back into the blood puppet master’s Storage Bag.

“Alright, it’s taken care of. Let’s go!”

Liu Shunyi nodded and followed Ji Suying towards the direction of Qinglian Sect.

However, while walking, Ji Suying kept fiddling with the Storage Bag, seemingly intrigued by it.

Throughout this encounter, Shi Changxin had been closely observing Liu Shunyi and Ji Suying.

As they walked away together, Shi Changxin was left dumbfounded.

“That Storage Bag is now in Ji Suying’s hands!”

The crow perched on his shoulder nodded. “I saw it too!”

Shi Changxin glanced back at the crow.

“So, do we still kill Liu Shunyi?”

The crow fell silent for a moment before responding.

“Yes, we must eliminate him. We can’t be certain if the item truly remains with Ji Suying. Besides, killing a Qi Refining ant like him means nothing!”

Shi Changxin nodded.

“What about Ji Suying then?”

The crow remained quiet once again.

Liu Shunyi was insignificant to the crow, barely worth considering.

However, Ji Suying was different.

As the Eldest Senior Sister of Hidden Sword Peak, her cultivation depth was unfathomable. From what the crow observed, Ji Suying typically resolved battles with just one strike; never had he seen her use more than a single sword move.

On the surface, she appeared to possess only a Golden Core cultivation base. Yet, no one knew her true realm.

After pondering for a while, the crow finally spoke:

“First, eliminate that ant called Liu Shunyi. If he truly doesn’t have it on him after his demise, we’ll then consider our next move against Ji Suying.”

Shi Changxin couldn’t help but roll his eyes.

“Killing Liu Shunyi isn’t an issue, but can you really handle it? Don’t let the Qinglian Sect elders interfere!”

The crow grew visibly irritated.

“Relax, this matter is well within our capabilities!”

Shi Changxin nodded.

“What about my Cultivation Technique? Not only am I frequently feeling anemic lately, but I’m also experiencing some physical discomforts!”

Crow stared, puzzled.

Physical discomforts? What’s going on with that?

Shi Changxin explained his current condition in detail.

After listening, the crow fell deep into thought. It was unclear how much time passed before the crow finally spoke up.

“To be honest, your situation is unlike anything I’ve heard of before. Even…I find it quite difficult to assess!”

Shi Changxin felt anxious.

“I can’t stay like this indefinitely, right? Is there any solution?”

The crow shook its head.

“Not at the moment, but give me some time to study it further!”

With that, the crow flew away immediately.

Shi Changxin watched the direction the crow had taken, his gaze filled with anger.

“Damn you, Heavenly God Cult! This is all your fault!” Shi Changxin deeply regretted ever joining their treacherous path.

Now, his very foundation felt shaken.

However, having taken the wrong road, there was no turning back.

Resuming his disguise as a beggar, he lay down on the street once more.

In the blink of an eye, another month had passed.

During this time, Liu Shunyi enjoyed considerable comfort. He didn’t have to work, and no oblivious Outer Sect disciple dared to disturb him. Moreover, he even prepared everything needed for Foundation Establishment.

Suddenly, he found himself with ample free time.

However, Liu Shunyi took out the Primordial Bead, contemplating deeply.

“If I truly end up exploding from the surge, can my body withstand it for at least three seconds?”

The thought alone made Liu Shunyi anxious.

“No, I must be well-prepared. Even with my golden finger, enduring those three seconds will rely solely on me!”

With this realization, Liu Shunyi began refining top-tier Healing Pills.

For his own safety, he held nothing back. Striving for perfection, each pill was meticulously crafted.

Finally, Liu Shunyi amassed over a dozen Healing Pills, all radiating their distinctive dawnlight aura.

Just as he completed the alchemy process, Ji Suying approached.

“Shunyi, it’s time to depart for the secret realm!”

Liu Shunyi hastily gathered his belongings.

“I know, I know, coming right away!”
