Chapter 2797: Chapter 902: Nangong Yaoyao, Isolated and Helpless, Cultivates the Swallowing God Technique!
Immortal Lotus Sect, White Lotus Peak.
Nangong Yaoyao walked out from the palace of her Master, the White Lotus True Monarch, and returned to her own cave mansion.
"Miss."
The maids Huowu and Liu Yin, upon seeing Nangong Yaoyao in her white lotus skirt, her ethereal and pure demeanor yet sultry and alluring figure, immediately greeted her respectfully.
Even though they were women constantly serving at Nangong Yaoyao’s side, they couldn’t help but be captivated by her beauty.
With her National Beauty and Fragrance Face and Flawless Heavenly Fragrance Body, Nangong Yaoyao was already exceptionally beautiful, and her fame spread far and wide upon entering the Immortal Lotus Sect.
After breaking through Core Formation and increasing her cultivation level, under the effects of the Heavenly Fragrance Gu, the Immortal Beauty Technique, and the Immortal Skin Jade Bone Body, her beauty and charm were magnified infinitely, reaching astonishing levels, as if she were a woman born from a dream.
Every frown and smile brimmed with indescribable allure, making her irresistible to same rank cultivators, easily inducing affection, even causing hearts to race, and enthralling them to submit at her feet.
Through her talent and beauty, the name "White Lotus Demoness" Nangong Yaoyao became known to many over the decades.
It was known that the White Lotus True Monarch had taken another disciple of unparalleled beauty, whose methods surpassed those of her predecessors.
Not only did she convert the true inheritor "Ji Shaoyi" of the Great Sun Golden Crow Sect into a follower, but she also had several well-known Core Formation cultivators as admirers.
Especially eight years ago, when a Core Formation loose cultivator who escaped from the hands of a Core Formation Great Master succumbed to Nangong Yaoyao’s charm, astonishing many.
"Master has ordered me to go to Gusang City. Prepare yourselves and accompany me there,"
Nangong Yaoyao said to her two maids.
These two were her trusted aides, and although their talents were far inferior to hers, they had also broken through Core Formation.
"Gusang City?"
The two women immediately took on a solemn expression, inquiring why the True Monarch was sending Miss to Gusang City.
It must be noted that Gusang City is a major city under the domain of the Great Sun Golden Crow Sect.
In earlier years, not only did Nangong Yaoyao convert the prodigy "Ji Shaoyi" of the Great Sun Golden Crow Sect, but she also enchanted Ruan Qianqian, the daughter of Elder Liu Yan of the Great Sun Golden Crow Sect.
This incident incited great fury in the Great Sun Golden Crow Sect and Elder Liu Yan, leading to a bounty and pursuit against Nangong Yaoyao.
In recent years, Nangong Yaoyao had frequently been attacked by cultivators from the Profound Orthodox Sect and the Great Sun Golden Crow Sect.
In a previous secret realm contention, she even lost two admirers, narrowly escaping with the help of a secret treasure.
Now, returning to the territory of the Great Sun Golden Crow Sect, although a Nascent Soul True Lord might not act personally, top talents from the Great Sun Golden Crow Sect will certainly rise to the challenge.
"Master has arranged a duel with the Gusang City Lord,"
Nangong Yaoyao spoke, her eyes flowing with boundless charm and magic power, yet indifferent.
Having been in the Immortal Lotus Sect for years, she understood what a top-level demonic sect in the Southern Wilderness was!
While Master the White Lotus True Monarch accepted her as a disciple out of fondness for her talent, the concern wasn’t as significant as she had imagined.
Not to mention that the White Lotus True Monarch had accepted a total of eleven disciples, of whom only five remain, with one being half-crippled.
The relationship between disciples was not as mutually supportive as she initially perceived upon entering the sect, but rather one of competition!
After all, the resources every True Monarch can allocate to disciples are limited.
More disciples mean fewer resources to distribute to each individual.
Similar to the White Lotus True Monarch and the vein masters of the Immortal Lotus Sect, the peak masters only wish to nurture the Sect’s Holy Maiden.
So, not only do the true inheritors of the various peak veins within the Immortal Lotus Sect compete with one another,
but even the disciples of the True Monarchs are in a competitive relationship.
During her previous trials, she even faced ambush from her senior sister in collaboration with outsiders.
This is why she joined the Immortal Lotus Sect, to gain the favor of the White Lotus True Monarch without overly concealing her talents, causing her to be perceived as a threat by senior and junior sisters.
Currently, her situation is quite awkward.
Not only is she isolated and without support from the sect, relying solely on herself,
the incident involving the conversion of Ji Shaoyi was also known to other demonic sects, the Profound Sect, and major forces, leading to precaution against her.
Therefore, she can only obtain resources and quickly enhance her cultivation and influence through secret realm training or relatively dangerous missions.
After all, the cultivation technique inheritance of the Immortal Lotus Sect is not adept at direct combat.
In the struggle for the Holy Maiden position, aside from personal strength, external allies are crucial!
As for whether the external allies are people converted by the Immortal Lotus Pure Land or enlisted guest elders, courtiers, it’s not important!
And because she showed her edge too early, making it hard to find partners, suitable external allies, everyone is cautious of her.
For instance, in recent years, the Core Formation cultivator she subdued, injured in origin while fleeing, was actually not very combative.
Yet, with the promotion and help from the other true inheritors of the Immortal Lotus Sect, her fame and perceived threat level have been raised, leading to her increasingly awkward situation.
Nangong Yaoyao regrets showcasing her talents excessively in the past.
Or rather, showing talent is essential and inevitable.
Only by demonstrating enough talent can she gain the favor and resource inclination from the White Lotus True Monarch.
But her edges shouldn’t be too sharp; she must maintain a balance.
Exhibiting strength yet appearing weak, always having a trump card.
Like several of her senior sisters whose strength and means are no weaker than hers, they hide very well.
Yet, the nickname "White Lotus Demoness" fell on her, attracting attention and hostility for them.
Nangong Yaoyao knows that if she doesn’t continue to exhibit adequate strength and value, her Master will abandon tilting resources in her favor.
At that time, her fate as a disciple of the Immortal Lotus Sect would not be good.
"Yes, Miss."
Huowu and Liu Yin, understanding their Miss’s current plight, responded deferentially and went to make preparations.
...
Yiming Ghost Sect.
Inside Meng Xiaochan’s cave mansion.
Nangong Mili, Meng Xiaochan, and Qu Zhenzhen gathered together, looking at the fruit, shaped like a sleeping infant, on the three-foot-tall treeless and leafless tree top before them.
