Capítulo 87: Chapter 86: Devious Scheme
Jiang Cui Yi greeted Wan MianSu as she sat on the seat in in front of Cui Yi. She skipped the pleasantries and clasped her hand on top of the other.
"Cui Yi did you uphold your promise?"
"Yes Mistress. But I don't know if you uphold yours?"
MianSu just rolled her eyes and scoffed.
"Right now, Tiger Swallow may have had killed the Xuan Lang. Now, show me the thing."
"Yes Mistress."
With her hands, Cui Yi took a serpent-shaped bracelet from her sleeve and threw it on the floor. The snake bracelet came to life and crept on the floor up to the table top. The snake made it's way to MianSu's arm and it rested on her palm. MianSu looked at the snake intently staring into it's pair of emerald green eyes. After a while, the snake curled into her hand circling her wrist turning into a jade bracelet with signs engraved on it's body.
A powerful aura filled MianSu's body. The green flame engulfed her whole body and she writhe in pain. For a while, Cui Yi witnessed her suffering the poisonous qi of the snake. Finally, MianSu had absorbed the qi of the snake and with her success, she looked at the snake bracelet on her wrist and laughed hysterically.
"Finally, I have now the power to control the beacon! The mortal realm and the realm of immortals will now bow to me! HA HAHAHAHA!"
"Mistress, mind if I ask? What is the beacon for?"
MianSu raised an eyebrow and smirked. She didn't make a mistake into coaxing Cui Yi into her plans since she knew that Cui Yi was a little bit dumb.
"The beacon comes for the later part Cui Yi… Do not worry, soon… Old Jianghu will fall and you will be rewarded as my left hand commander."
Cui Yi couldn't refuse a good offer. Hearing her words, she graciously bowed in front of her. MianSu thought that she would make Cui Yi want to side with her since she's a deranged person with no hint of conscience at all. She knew that she was the one who let men inside Emei for Acolytes to be molested. Cui Yi sensed lust and evilness inside MianSu as she moved towards her holding out the snake bracelet on her hand.
"Cui Yi. Do you want to be my left-hand commander?"
"Y—Yes." Cui Yi gulped a lump of saliva seeing MianSu in such a state.
"Very well then… You want to become my faithful servant? Then you have to first go through something."
MianSu's eyes gleamed in bright red as she caressed Cui Yi's pale white face.
"W—What is it Mistress?"
MianSu laughed softly and smirked while looking at Cui Yi.
"I want you to become my slave forever and swear to me your loyalty by letting yourself submit your body, mind and soul."
Cui Yi felt shivers on her spine as MianSu gripped her arms forcefully. Lust enveloped MianSu as she grabbed Cui Yi and dragged her inside the Sawtooth Spirit's room. Cui Yi tried to struggle free from MianSu's grasps but it was too late. One of the snakes that came creeping from the bracelet that she gave to MianSu bit her and she fell weak on the floor. The snake venom makes the victim obey every master's wishes.
"W—What did you do to me, Mistress?"
"I told you… If you want to be my loyal servant, you need to submit yourself first. Now, Cui Yi… Strip your clothes."
With expressionless face and empty eyes, Cui Yi undressed herself revealing her beautifully honed body. MianSu looked at her with her tongue almost salivating on her body. She was very lust driven and wanted to molest her body in pretense of making her as her loyal servant.
Using MianSu's hands, she trailed around her body. Back and forth until it reached her right shoulder. MianSu felt a scar on it and her lustful face turned into a face full of rage.
"What is this?! Who gave this scar?"
"Na YingLuo… The eldest daughter of JiuTian XuanWu."
"XUANWU!" MianSu clenched her hands in anger. She wanted to kill XuanWu a long time ago since XuanWu was against her plans and wanted to help Asuro reclaim back his glorious era as a high immortal.
'This b*tch is totally preventing me to start a war and I would be glad to dispose her later.'
MianSu smirked putting her hands all over Cui Yi until it reached the bottom. Cui Yi's face was still expressionless along with dead eyes due to the poison.
'You will never stop the war that's coming XuanWu.'

XuanWu looked around as she ate her soup. She bit her tongue hard and was bothered by the pain that it caused.
Chang 'e entered inside the study where XuanWu was eating her soup when she noticed that XuanWu stopped eating.
"Why'd you stop eating?"
"I bit my tongue."
"Hold your tongue out."
XuanWu held her tongue out and Chang 'e casted a spell to heal the pain.
"Now… Are you feeling better?"
"Yes. Thank you."
XuanWu resumed eating when she noticed Chang 'e holding a scroll on her other hand.
"What's that for Chang 'e-jie?"
"This? It's about a detailed report on one of the high immortals that were observed."
XuanWu's eyes grew large and decided to peer inside the scroll but before she did that, she looked around and afterwards closed the door from behind Chang 'e.
"Show me." She gestured Chang 'e and Chang 'e opened the scroll. XuanWu 's jaw almost dropped on the floor as she saw the immortal that was under observation.
"XuanWu, you know this woman?"
"Yes… A long time ago. Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to go to the mortal realm Chang 'e-jie."
"Huh? Why are you in such hurry?"
"My son and daughter are in grave danger. That person in the scroll, she's a walking lump of danger."
"Really? If so, I should warn the other immortals."
"Yes, please do."
XuanWu headed on the gate heading for the mortal realm while Chang 'e headed for the 15th cloud calling the other immortals for a meeting.

Jin Ren busily helped QingHai on picking wild berries at the forest's edge. As he had been in a human form after Wei Yue undid the spell of banishment on him, his divine prowess is slowly returning inside him making him stronger every single day. He never loved a human so much as he felt right now.
'QingHai promised me that she'll protect me but with her body, who would protect her? I'd better cultivate and get my divine prowess up to it's optimal power for me to protect her.'
As they arrived back at the entrance of the forest, a shadow of a masked man wearing a straw hat stood from afar. Jin Ren looked at the man and sensed divine prowess in him and asked QingHai to step back.
"Ah Qing please step back."
"Jin Ren what's wrong?"
The man leapt against Jin Ren with vicious claws and left a small cut beside Jin Ren's face which also healed quickly because of his divine prowess.
With ample divine prowess inside him, Jin Ren called out his divine weapon and crossed blades with the stranger. Jin Ren gasped as he noticed that the stranger's weapon and his were almost the same. The only difference was, Jin Ren's divine weapon had chains while the stranger's haven't.
"I see you're banished but you still have the prowess to call your divine weapon. You sure are worthy to be called a high immortal."
"And you dare challenge this immortal?"
Their blades crossed like clashing of the leaves and the wind. QingHai witnessed a different Jin Ren. He was much fierce and much braver different from the traits that he used to show her back when he was a Xuan Lang… Gentle and caring. QingHai closed her eyes hoping that all were just a nightmare when…
She heard Jin Ren's voice.
"Ah Qing… Run to Wenxi city and find the Na siblings. They will keep you safe. Hurry!"
His voice were filled with concern. QingHai was moved into tears after hearing him. Her little legs moved after she heard him. She don't want Jin Ren to die.
'I must find the Na siblings quickly.' She inwardly said as she ran heading to Wenxi city.
