The Game with Fairies - Chapter 415

Chapter 415: The Aura of the Evil God

The matter of attending the Hehuan Sect’s Dao Discussion Conference was thus settled.

Yan Xiaoru had no objections to the invitation from the Hehuan Sect, but Li Muyang wasn’t particularly interested.

He even felt that the trip would be a waste of time, better spent playing games at home.

Perhaps after clearing “Dragonkin Awakening,” he might break through to the Divine Travel Realm.

But the allure of the Hehuan Sect’s Beauty-Preserving Pill was strong, and Yan Xiaoru really wanted it.

Plus, attending the Dao Discussion Conference was an order personally signed by the sect leader, so Li Muyang found it hard to refuse.

Thus, he and Yan Xiaoru roughly finalized the details of attending the conference and returned to their residence.

But not long after Li Muyang had returned to his residence, his little sister Li Yuechan came back again.

“Hehe… Brother…”

The little girl, previously upset about the theft of the Fairy Qinghe statue, now had a face full of ingratiating smiles.

Li Muyang looked at her speechlessly and said, “What do you want to say?”

The girl had “I need a favor from you” written all over her face, not even bothering to pretend.

Upon hearing Li Muyang’s question, the girl immediately became excited and hurriedly said,

“Brother, I heard from Xiaoshun that the young sect leader of the Hehuan Sect has invited you to attend the Dao Discussion Conference, and they will give you a Beauty-Preserving Pill!”

“Brother, this Beauty-Preserving Pill…”

The girl’s eyes were filled with little stars.

However, Li Muyang directly interrupted her.

“Forget about it, someone has already reserved it, it’s not your turn.”

Li Muyang mercilessly shattered his sister’s fantasy.

It seems that the allure of the Beauty-Preserving Pill is indeed great, even the little sister was tempted.

Upon hearing Li Muyang’s refusal, Li Yuechan immediately pouted unhappily.

“I knew it…”

She was aware of the relationship between Li Muyang and Yan Xiaoru, but which female cultivator could resist the temptation of the Hehuan Sect’s Beauty-Preserving Pill?

Li Yuechan’s eyes darted around, and she leaned in to say.

“How about this, when we attend the Dao Discussion Conference, let’s make an effort to try and get you to become the protector of the young sect leader of the Hehuan Sect.”

“If you become the protector, wouldn’t the Beauty-Preserving Pill from the Hehuan Sect be easy to obtain…”

Li Muyang rolled his eyes.

“For the sake of a Beauty-Preserving Pill, you’d even sell out your brother, huh?”

Saying this, Li Muyang shook his head.

“Stop daydreaming, we’re just going to join in the fun this time, I’m unlikely to be chosen.”

Li Muyang had a clear understanding of himself.

Although he was handsome and strong, as Yan Xiaoru said, his personality was too capricious and he acted on whim, which was Li Muyang’s biggest weakness.

Moreover, in this world of music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, Li Muyang didn’t know how to do any of it, didn’t understand any of it.

From the inside out, he was a complete country bumpkin.

Although he was handsome, which of the young talents attending the Hehuan Sect’s Dao Discussion Conference wasn’t handsome?

According to Yan Xiaoru, among the younger generation of disciples in the Demon Refining Sect, there were several whose strength and talent were not inferior to Li Muyang.

But why didn’t the others receive an invitation?

It was simply because Li Muyang had the highest looks among this group.

The Hehuan Sect’s techniques for preserving beauty and health were unparalleled in the world, and all the past sect leaders were beauties, naturally attracting a bunch of people who favored looks.

Only the handsome ones got to go.

Everyone has a great appearances, so the competition was about other things.

Others could speak eloquently, were versed in elegance, excelled in both the literary and martial arts, and had an extraordinary demeanor.

And Li Muyang?

Not to belittle himself, but just by standing there, he, a commoner without a single literary cell in his body, would definitely be the first to be eliminated.

He waved his hand in disgust, telling his sister to give up her fantasies early and to go back to prepare and pack.

This time, Yan Xiaoru was personally leading the team, and naturally, the disciples from the Hall of Enforcement would accompany her.

Guan Xiaoshun, Li Yuechan, Cheng Feiyang, and other acquaintances were naturally on the list of attendees.

Of course, Ning Wan’er, who was Yan Xiaoru’s true direct disciple, would also accompany them.

According to Yan Xiaoru’s arrangements, they were to set off at noon the next day, so today was the day to prepare and pack.

But while Li Muyang and his sister were chatting idly, a commotion suddenly arose outside.

The disturbance started off inconspicuously but quickly spread throughout the entire Hall of Enforcement, and it seemed like all the disciples from their respective rooms came out, pointing and discussing outside.

Even faintly, Li Muyang saw that disciples from other nearby floating islands of the Demonic Sect were also coming out, talking animatedly.

The vast Demon Refining Sect was suddenly as noisy as a marketplace.

Li Muyang and his sister, who were chatting, became slightly curious and were about to get up to check when a maid hurriedly ran in and informed Li Muyang of the cause of the commotion outside.

“Young Master, something terrible has happened. Elder Ge Hongshan from the Artifact Refining Hall has been attacked and is critically injured, on the brink of death, and has been carried back!”

The news brought by the maid was shocking.

Elder Ge Hongshan was a great powerhouse of the Purple Mansion and also had the status of an elder in the Demonic Sect, a notorious demon in the deminic path.

He was powerful and backed by the mountain that was the Demonic Sect, who would dare to harm him? And who could harm him?

To be so seriously injured to the point of being on the brink of death… the news was so absurd it seemed like a joke.

Li Muyang and his sister exchanged glances, both with expressions of astonishment.

They immediately left the courtyard and went outside, only to see that the disciples of the entire Hall of Enforcement were crowded at the edge of the floating island.

Li Muyang and Yuechan also went to the edge of the floating island and, following the gaze of the crowd, saw a glowing semi-transparent cocoon hovering in the sky not far away.

Within that cocoon, the figure of Elder Ge Hongshan from the Artifact Refining Hall lay still.

But at this moment, Ge Hongshan was covered in wounds, his appearance withered, looking as if he was not far from death.

Around him, a terrifying and unsettling evil aura swirled.

That cocoon was tightly protecting him, and many disciples from the Artifact Refining Hall flew up to try to rescue their elder, but they were repelled as soon as they approached the cocoon.

Senior Brother Cheng, standing at the forefront of the crowd with a serious face and cold gaze, as always, was putting on airs like the wind.

Seeing Li Muyang and his sister coming over, Cheng Senior Brother spoke.

“That is Elder Ge’s protective magical artifact, the high-grade spiritual weapon, the Xuan Kong Mirror. It can transform into a mirror to reflect a person’s soul when attacking, and into a cocoon to protect oneself when defending.”

“Unexpectedly, with Elder Ge’s cultivation, he has suffered such serious injuries… I wonder who the audacious person is.”

Cheng Senior Brother’s face was serious.

The entire Demon Refining Sect’s disciples were stirred up, and the edges of the floating islands were filled with people.

Everyone was astonished as they looked at the cocoon in the sky, discussing fervently.

Soon, elder-level figures finally appeared.

Several elders appeared high in the sky, joined forces to stabilize the cocoon, and rescued the unconscious Ge Hongshan from within, rushing him for emergency treatment.

With that, the onlooking crowd gradually dispersed.

Everyone was discussing who had injured Elder Ge.

However, Li Muyang in the crowd was staring in the direction where Ge Hongshan was carried away, a flash of astonishment in his eyes.

When Ge Hongshan was rescued from the cocoon, the evil aura on his body suddenly erupted, spreading in all directions.

Others might not recognize this evil aura, but Li Muyang felt it was incredibly familiar and intimate.

It was clearly the aura of an ancient evil god!
