Chapter 347: Chapter 347: Probing the Enemy, Gong Qingqiu’s Crisis
“Ouch, you’re hurting me!” the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch changed his voice and deliberately spoke in a coquettish tone.
Upon hearing this, the three disciples of the Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect’s eyes lit up, and they couldn’t help but let out a creepy chuckle.
Ye Feng felt a shiver down his spine.
He really wanted to say, “Thousand Faces Demon Monarch, you’re truly provocative!”
However, given the circumstances, the more provocative the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch was, the better, as this would bewitch the disciples of the Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect and allow a successful infiltration into the underground to begin the covert mission.
“Immortal Master, that seems to be the Black Stone Wasteland over there, it’s very dangerous, can we not go that way, pretty please?” the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch cooed again in the voice of a flirty woman.
“The fairy does not know, our Sect is located underground,” a disciple named “Xiao Wang Cui” said.
“Ah!” the girl feigned shock and fear, “You’re not normal people, are you?”
Xiao Wang Cui immediately said earnestly, “What are you talking about, fairy? We are a legitimate Sect. Though we are called the Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect and might sound a bit overbearing at first, we actually live in peace with the world, focusing solely on cultivation, which is most suitable for a genius girl like you.”
“Yes, yes, yes,” the other two disciples bobbed their heads in agreement.
“Oh, then I’m relieved!” the girl cooed in response.
Upon hearing this, Ye Feng was speechless and realized he had severely underestimated the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch’s provocativeness.
Since the Demon Monarch had disguised himself as a woman, he acted even more feminine than an actual woman.
Before long, the group arrived at the center of the Black Stone Wasteland.
Xiao Wang Cui took out a Spirit Talisman, opened the passage to the underground, and led everyone into the Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect’s territory.
“Wow! There really is such a magical underground world here, look at that, they even have a man-made sun, how amazing!”
“And those few stone pillars, so tall and thick, holding up the entire underground sky, it’s really impressive!”
The Thousand Faces Demon Monarch kept acting provocatively.
Ye Feng felt that he could probably win this mission while lying down.
Because the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch was on fire!
All he had to do was watch the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch flirt, and the secrets behind the Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect would be easily revealed.
Sect Main Hall.
Several black-robed Elders saw the tall and elegant girl, their eyes lit up, and they praised, “What a beautiful girl, truly as lovely as lotus flowers rising above the water, naturally without need of embellishment!”
“Elders, this girl has superior innate talent, from now on, she could become the genius of our Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect, possibly even more incredible than the highly esteemed ‘Li Mo Huang’ elder brother,” said Xiao Wang Cui and the other two disciples as they quickly recommended her.
Hearing “Li Mo Huang” these three words, Ye Feng nearly burst out laughing.
“Let me see,” a black-robed Elder came over, grabbed the girl’s wrist, and after checking for a while, his eyes immediately lit up, “Excellent, indeed a superior innate quality. Well done, you’ve served your purpose, you may leave now.”
“Yes,” the three disciples withdrew.
Soon, only the girl and several black-robed Elders were left in the hall.
Ye Feng took the opportunity to scrutinize the hall.

He found that the cultivation level of these black-robed Elders wasn’t weak, with the weakest being at the Fourth Layer of the Element Gathering Realm and the strongest having reached the Seventh Layer of the Element Gathering Realm.
One had to admit, the Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect was quite strong.
“What’s your name?” one of the black-robed Elders asked in a low voice.
“Replying to the Elder, my name is ‘Bi Lian’er.’ I don’t know if my talent is good enough, do the Elders want Bi Lian’er or not?” the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch went further down the path of flirtation.
Hearing this, Ye Feng really struggled to hold back his laughter.
“Of course we want you.”
“Right, Bi Lian’er, you are a talent, how could we not want you?” the Elders said with beaming smiles.
The girl’s eyes sparkled: “Does that mean the Elders want Bi Lian’er? That’s wonderful, thank you, Elders! So, can I start cultivating now?”
“Of course, I’ll take you to your living quarters first,” said an Elder as he held the girl’s hand and walked toward a nearby courtyard.
Here, Ye Feng and the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch saw the various specific layouts of the Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect, including the Martial Arts Grounds, the Spiritual Medicine Garden, the Spirit Beast Garden, the Artifact-refining Pavilion, and other areas.
However, there were very few Cultivators in the Demon Sect, totaling less than two hundred.
“Is this all the people in our Sect?”
The girl asked in her coquettish tone.
“Our Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect has over a thousand people, but most of them aren’t in the Sect. Also, the Sect Master’s whereabouts are unpredictable, and he’s not here right now. When he returns, he will meet you,” explained the Elder.
“Alright, Elder.”
Soon, the girl was settled into a small individual courtyard.
Throughout the day, numerous male disciples rushed over, wanting to “take care” of the girl, but were chased away by the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch under the pretext of ill health.
“Finally, those flies have stopped bothering me,” the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch muttered, “Sect Leader, what should we do next?”
“Wait for now, no rush,” Ye Feng transmitted his voice.
…
County King City.
While Ye Feng and the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch were on an undercover mission, within the Sect Main Hall, Gong Qingqiu finally met with Hall Master Liu Ming.
“So it’s to purchase the Shuiyang City Ruins, which once possessed a Miniature Spirit Vein as its foundation. The original selling price was tens of thousands of Spirit Stones, and one had to participate in the Sect’s grand competition to obtain it. However, the Spirit Vein has been destroyed, and its value and status have plummeted. Now, it can be bought for merely two thousand five hundred Lower Grade Spirit Stones for the permanent Sect Territory Deed,”
Liu Ming said with a smile.
Gong Qingqiu felt relieved and asked, “Does this mean I can get the Sect Territory Deed today?”
“Yes,” Liu Ming nodded in agreement.
He took out the Shuiyang City Ruins Deed, registered it in a thick directory, stamped it, took Gong Qingqiu’s two thousand five hundred Spirit Stones, and completed the handover smoothly.
“So, the process is this simple.”
After obtaining the deed, Gong Qingqiu let out a sigh of relief.
From today on, Misty Sect could legally take possession of the Shuiyang City Ruins and operate there freely, even County King City would not interfere in any way.
“Thank you, Lord Liu. I will take my leave now,”
Gong Qingqiu put away the deed and left the Sect Main Hall.
“Take care,” Liu Ming waved goodbye.
Leaving the Sect Main Hall, Gong Qingqiu strolled around County King City, purchasing some alchemy materials, talisman-making materials, and some exquisite spells for the development of the Sect.
“I should have brought some disciples along to broaden their horizons,”
Gong Qingqiu murmured to herself as she shopped.
At the far end of the nearby street,
A strange figure crouched on a wall, squinted his eyes, staring at Gong Qingqiu, his pupils narrowed slightly, brimming with coldness.
Before long, in a hidden hall,
“Big brother, I saw Elder Gong Qingqiu from the Misty Sect arrived in County King City, and she’s alone. Should we…?”
Han Er made a throat-slitting gesture.
On the couch,
Han Yi sat up weakly, saying, “The backlash from the previous fight was severe, and I’ve only just recovered. Moreover, I’ve ascended to the Seventh Layer, so I’m too conspicuous. It’s not appropriate for me to make a move.”
“How about hiring an assassin from the Assassin’s Hall?” Han Er suggested.
“Yes!” Han Yi nodded, “But remember, we must keep it secret and not reveal any traces.”
“Got it!” Han Er immediately exited the hall.
In the afternoon sun,
Gong Qingqiu finished her purchases and boarded the Spirit Snake Flying Boat, leaving County King City through the south gate.
Behind her, a burly figure with a long blade on his back walked out, his face scarred with centipede-like vicious scars.
He took out a sign and hung it at his waist.
It clearly bore three blood-red characters:
[Open for Business]
“It’s the tenth-ranked Mad Blade from the Assassin’s Hall!”
“Open for business? My god! He’s going to strike again. Who on earth is so unlucky to be hunted by this fierce man with the Blade Intent of the Mad Blade?”
“I don’t know, but we’d better not get involved in such matters.”
The cultivators of County King City saw Mad Blade, their eyes filled with dread.
Mad Blade watched the direction in which Gong Qingqiu had left, reached out his hand, took out a bizarre Spirit Talisman, and stuck it on his body. In an instant, he transformed into a sharp blade light that tore through the sky.
Atop the city wall,
The numerous cultivators were tempted to watch the show.
The Assassin’s Hall rankings, created by a certain reclusive powerhouse of County King City, listed a hundred assassins.
Their names were all made public.
However, the assassins were doing legitimate work.
Because County King City had an Assassin’s Hall, where cultivators who needed to stay anonymous would send others to hire the assassins with hefty sums to kill strong enemies.
And the assassins wouldn’t kill indiscriminately in their free time.
They had professional ethics.
No money, no service!
As Mad Blade left County King City, the cultivators there began to buzz with talk and speculation.
