Soul Changqing was somewhat dissatisfied with Xingxiu for messing up the figurines he had painstakingly created, but he didn't dwell on it too much. After all, these were minor matters, just some of his hobbies, insignificant compared to the cave dwelling of the Dry Wood Saint.
Hun Changqing arrived at the room and slowly pushed open the light wooden door, where he saw Xingxiu sitting quietly by the bed, gazing up at the twinkling stars in the dark night sky.
Hun Changqing noticed that Xingxiu was no longer wearing the slightly transparent black veil he had left her before he left. Instead, she was wearing a tight-fitting black dress, with wisps of faint black energy swirling around her. After carefully sensing her appearance, Hun Changqing's eyes revealed a thoughtful expression.
"Qi transforming into veil, huh? She really is that genius from the Soul Clan a hundred years ago. She's already broken through my seal a little in the past few days. If I hadn't damaged her bloodline before, she probably would have broken through the seal while I was still in my weakened state."
Hun Changqing thought to himself. Although he was somewhat surprised that Xingxiu had broken through some of his seal and recovered some of her cultivation, it wasn't a big deal. He had already passed his weakened state and even refined the Yin Soul Banner. Even if Xingxiu had fully recovered her strength, she couldn't cause any trouble.
Hun Changqing stopped worrying about Xingxiu's recovered strength and slowly approached Xingxiu, whose expression was now incredibly cold, radiating an extremely chilling aura, like a giant iceberg.
Upon getting closer, Hun Changqing was somewhat surprised to find that Xingxiu's temperament seemed slightly different from before, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it. However, the change in Xingxiu's demeanor piqued Hun Changqing's interest.
But Hun Changqing suppressed this interest; at this moment, the most important thing for him was the cave of the Saint of Dry Wood. Beauty was merely one of his hobbies, and he wouldn't let it interfere with his duties.
Hun Changqing directly reached out and gently touched Xingxiu's heart. As Hun Changqing's finger touched her, a battle aura several times larger than before surged from Xingxiu's body, and Hun Changqing loosened the seal within Xingxiu's body slightly.
After all, if Xingxiu's cultivation remained sealed and she couldn't fly, their travel speed would be significantly slower. Therefore, Hun Changqing unsealed Xingxiu's cultivation to the Dou Zong realm. This way, their travel speed wouldn't be slow, and Hun Changqing could still control her at will.
Xingxiu sensed her body rapidly filling with energy due to the recovery of her cultivation, and a slight change finally appeared in her icy eyes.
"Now that my business is almost finished, you can take me to the cave of that Dry Wood Saint. Although I've unsealed you to the Dou Zong realm, you'd better be sensible and not make any trouble. I could suppress you in your prime, and your current Dou Zong cultivation is even less of a threat to me," Hun
Changqing said indifferently after sealing Xingxiu's cultivation. Upon hearing Hun Changqing's words, a strange expression appeared on Xingxiu's face, several emotions flashing in her beautiful eyes, before she coldly replied...
"Is it over already? I thought you were going to torture me again after you came out. So, what are you going to do with me after we leave the cave?" After
hearing Xing Su's words, Hun Changqing gave Xing Su a meaningful look, his eyes flashing with a cold, dark light. Then he turned away and stopped looking at Xing Su, saying coldly,
"After all, we have a relationship. Considering our friendship over the past few dozen days, I will naturally not make things difficult for you after I get what I want. You can leave at any time and reunite with your brother." "However, I still hope that after you return to the Soul Palace, you can conceal my affairs. Otherwise, at worst, I can spend two or three years collecting souls to replenish the souls from this branch palace. Naturally, I won't be punished anymore. But then, your brother... hmph!"
After Hun Changqing finished speaking, he heavily flicked his black sleeve and snorted coldly, the threat in his words self-evident.
As for Xing Su, after spending these dozens of days with her, Hun Changqing's murderous intent towards her had long since dissipated. He was relatively tolerant of the women he had harmed.
Therefore, he did not intend to kill Xing Su. Moreover, Xing Su's bloodline had been destroyed by him, and after returning, she would no longer have the same influence as when she had a ninth-grade bloodline. She would only be considered an ordinary five-star Dou Zun, and naturally, she would not be able to gain the support of any powerful figures.
Even if Xing Su really exposed him, he... he only needed to work for a few years to make up for the lost souls, and she could naturally be exempt from punishment. However, at that time, he, being vengeful, would definitely not show any mercy to Xingxiu. He would definitely do as previously said, letting her and her brother thoroughly experience the Ten Cruelest Tortures of the Soul Palace before they went to the Underworld to meet again.
Behind Hun Changqing, Xingxiu's delicate body trembled violently upon hearing Hun Changqing's words. She bit her lip, staring intently at Hun Changqing's back, a chilling black light flashing in her beautiful eyes. Black mist swirled around her, and her delicate face gradually became somewhat ferocious.
"Won't make things difficult for me? Let me leave? Ghost! You think things are too simple! Do you really think I, Hun Tong, am so lowly and despicable? You think you can provoke me and then abandon me as you please?
Aren't you high and mighty, believing you have everything under control?" "Don't worry, the cave of the Drywood Saint will satisfy you, and it will even give you a huge surprise. At that time, you will be as humble as I was before, reduced to dust! Hehehe!" Xingxiu
stared intently at Hun Changqing's back, roaring wildly in her heart. At this moment, her heart was completely twisted. The countless emotions and desires that she had deeply hidden in her heart were completely released, no longer suppressed.
"Hmm?"
Hun Changqing noticed the energy fluctuations of Xingxiu behind him and turned around with some doubt. He looked at Xingxiu, whose face was obscured by her head, and sensed the waves of emotions emanating from her.
"Could it be that she was so excited to hear that she could go back and reunite with her brother that she lost control of her emotions?"
Hun Changqing scratched his head, somewhat puzzled.
