The Villain has Perished

It took Saintess Qian Yufeng more than 2 hours to finish her speech and when it was Saintess Sheng Feiyan's turn, she took another 2 hours.

By now, everyone was quite stunned by all the rules and other minor details that they had to know in the newly formed holy land.

Shen Lie had also finished reading the cultivation cores of all the protégés in the place.

He divine whispered to the two holy saintess: I've found 30 protégés that have the slave marks. But none of it matched the one that I've found. There is a limit on the number of slave seals that a cultivator can form. Even for me, I cannot form more than 7 slave seals. I don't think that Divine Emperor Murong Jinshan is able to plant more than 4 slave seals.

Saintess Sheng Feiyan secretly asked Shen Lie: Did you plant a slave seal on each of us in the past?

Shen Lie: …

As they were secretly transmitting to one another through their divine whispers, there were three powerful bursts of profound auras that had suddenly appeared in the horizon.

This startled everyone, including Shen Lie, Saintess Qian Yufeng and Saintess Sheng Feiyan.

Appearing were two extremely beautiful maidens that were in front and another beautiful maiden at the back.

The extremely beautiful maiden that was leading the other two had the most formidable profound aura and her profound aura automatically proclaimed her to be at the saintess cultivation realm!

Shen Lie was startled.

It was because the saintess that had suddenly appeared was actually the Holy Saintess Beitang Fang of the Saintess Palace!

The extremely beautiful maiden that was behind her also startled Shen Lie; it was because he had recognized her as Maiden Yun Xiang.

However, she is really Fairy Xiang Yun and is from the Saintess Palace.

The other beautiful maiden that had appeared behind them was Yao Chi.

Both Fairy Xiang Yun and Yao Chi were both the protector elders of the Saintess Palace and they reported directly to their Saintess Beitang Fang.

These 3 approaching maidens tiptoed lightly as they flashed rapidly toward Saintess Sheng Feiyan and Saintess Qian Yufeng.

Saintess Sheng Feiyan displayed her profound voice, "So it is Holy Saintess Beitang Fang. I wonder who it is."

When she had said that, all the 10 000 protégés were greatly startled.

"What? One of them is the Holy Saintess Beitang Fang herself?"

"The Saintess Palace is one of the top 3 holy lands…"

"The holy land of the Saintess Palace is 3 times bigger than our combined holy land and they have numerous cultivation experts and cultivation resources…"

"Why is Holy Saintess Beitang Fang here today?"

"Holy Saintess Beitang Fang only has 2 others with her. Surely she didn't come to fight with us, right?"

"Maybe Holy Saintess Beitang Fang is stronger than our two holy saintesses and hence, she only brings 2 others…"

"Maybe the 3 of them are stronger than our two holy saintesses…"

The faces of both Saintess Sheng Feiyan and Saintess Qian Yufeng had both turned quite ugly when they saw that one of the intruders was Saintess Beitang Fang.

When the Saintess Beitang Fang was closer now, many of the protégés of the Holy Carnation Sanctuary was all gasping breathlessly; it was because they had all thought their two holy saintesses were astonishing enough and even outranked most of the 12 great beauties of the Fenghua Great Continent.

But Saintess Beitang Fang appearance was like a heavenly maiden that had just descended upon the mortal realm and her enticing mesmerizing beauty awed almost all the onlookers save for Saintess Sheng Feiyan and Saintess Qian Yufeng.

The maiden just behind her, Fairy Xiang Yun was like a heavenly fairy as well or else she won't be given the title of Fairy to her name. Her great alluring beauty was on par with Fairy Yue Shuwen as well.

It is said that the Saintess Palace is an only female cultivation sect and there are numerous great beauties in the Saintess Palace.

Seeing is believing now.

Shen Lie was very startled to see Fairy Xiang Yun: It is Maiden Yun Xiang? She is also here today?

Saintess Sheng Feiyan repeated herself again as she said coldly, "Hmph! I wonder what brings the renowned Holy Saintess Beitang Fang here today?"

Even Saintess Qian Yufeng was hummed coldly as well, "I wonder what bothers our Sister Saintess Beitang Fang to bring the trouble of coming to our insignificant holy land here today?"

Beitang Fang chuckled softly and her smiles were extremely mesmerizing, "Naturally I am here to offer my heartfelt congrats to my two sister saintesses. I just didn't expect for the two of you to be giving a speech here or you have already known that I am coming and have prepare your protégés to take me down?"

Saintess Sheng Feiyan giggled softly, "Thank you for reminding me of that."

Then she shouted, "Everyone, take her down!"

When she had ordered this, all her protégés were stunned, including Elder Hua Zixia, Nangong Shu and Fairy Yue Shuwen; this was no different from a suicide attack. The ones that attacked first would be the ones that would usually be the first to be killed.

All her protégés were stirring but they did not make dare to move first as they were all watching one another.

Saintess Qian Yufeng cough weakly to get Saintess Sheng Feiyan's attention, "Erm, she is after all a guest. We don't attack our guests or the envoys from the other holy lands, do we?"

Saintess Sheng Feiyan laughed weakly, "I was only joking just now…"

When all her protégés had heard that their holy saintess was only joking, they were all looking quite relieved.

Saintess Sheng Feiyan turned to ask Saintess Beitang Fang coldly, "So, why are you here?"

Saintess Beitang Fang giggled softly, "Naturally I am here to look for Shen Lie."

When she had said this, Fairy Shuwen was startled: Why is she looking for Shen Lie?

Jie Ying was also curiously looking at Shen Lie: Is she looking for another Shen Lie or my Brother Shen Lie?

Quite a few protégés that know Shen Lie were also looking at his direction but they quickly dismissed that he was not the Shen Lie that Saintess Beitang Fang was looking for. After all, this Shen Lie that they know was just a low level protégé.

Saintess Sheng Feiyan blinked her golden eyes innocently, "What Shen Lie? I don't know any Shen Lie at all."

When she had said, many of her protégés almost flipped on the spot; it was because they all know that their Holy Saintess Sheng Feiyan had been flopping a protégé name Shen Lie quite often.

Saintess Qian Yufeng was also saying quite innocently, "What Shen Lie are you talking about? Is it the name of a profound wine that you are talking about?"

Shen Lie had suddenly stepped forward and grinned to Saintess Beitang Fang, "I am Shen Lie."

Saintess Qian Yufeng, Saintess Sheng Feiyan: …

The two of them were cursing Shen Lie for not keeping quiet in their hearts.

Fairy Xiang Yun was quite startled to see Lie Shen: Isn't he Lie Shen? He is Shen Lie?! Lie Shen, Shen Lie…"

She was suddenly looking very startled.

Yao Chi who was a spy for the Divine Emperor Murong Jinshan stared at Shen Lie: Beitang Fang is looking for this beautiful looking man? What for?
