There are countless geniuses in the world of cultivation, but only my junior sister Sha Diao

the other side.

Completely unaware that he had been forgotten by his disciples, Yue Ming looked extremely disheveled at the moment.

He originally thought that although Qu Yimian's cultivation level had advanced by leaps and bounds, she was still just a pill cultivator. As everyone knows, pill cultivators are not strong in combat. Even if he couldn't defeat her, he should be able to deal with her temporarily.

But after the fight, Yueming realized that he was wrong, and very wrong.

Qu Yimian had somehow learned to wield a sword, and her sword techniques seemed quite impressive. Yue Ming, being the sect leader of sword cultivators, was no pushover; he recognized at a glance that the sword techniques she used were not those practiced by the disciples of the Qingyun Sect.

It is unknown where it originated, but the sword technique has a sinister and unpredictable quality. Although their sect's sword moves are somewhat similar, the two are quite different.

Qu Yimian's sword techniques were more vicious and didn't seem to follow the path of cultivation at all.

Having been the sect leader for so many years, he had never seen such a sword technique before.

Moreover, Qu Yimian's current level is already above his. If Yue Ming hadn't been so experienced, he would probably be more than just injured right now.

"Haven't you come to terms with reality, Master?" The girl smiled, and seeing him struggling to support himself, a hint of vengeful pleasure flashed across her beautiful face. "I am no longer the person I used to be. With your current strength, you are no match for me at all."

"You can't stop me."

Yue Ming's face was grim. More than being defeated by his former disciple, he was concerned about, "Where did you learn your swordsmanship from?"

"I have my own way." Qu Yimian's smile remained unchanged. "Master, do you see? There are many more sword geniuses in this world than just Senior Brother and his group."

Although she didn't answer, Yue Ming had already guessed what was going on. Sword cultivators never knew how to be tactful, and he coldly pointed out, "If I'm not mistaken, it must be a sword technique you obtained from the demon race, right?"

"Don't make it sound so nice. You're not even worthy of being compared to your senior brother."

Gu Lanyi is his first disciple, carrying the future of the Qingyun Sect. In Yue Ming's eyes, a former disciple who betrayed his sect, colluded with two clans, and was hated by everyone is naturally not worthy of being compared with him.

Moreover, in a fair comparison, Qu Yimian's sword practice time was naturally not as long as that of other people who had been personally taught and trained since childhood. Yue Ming could also see that her swordsmanship was only superior in its versatility and unpredictability. Compared with those who had cultivated their skills step by step, her foundation was unstable.

As expected, his words instantly enraged Qu Yimian.

"so what?"

Her eyes turned cold. "Even if you say that, Senior Brother isn't here right now, and even if he were, there's nothing he could do."

Qu Yimian still harbored resentment towards the cultivation world and was expelled from the Qingyun Sect, something that had never happened in her previous life.

She never reflected on her actions. In her view, she just wanted to become a genius in the spotlight and to gain the favor of her master, senior brothers, and more people. What was wrong with that?

It's all because those five sects are blind and foolish that they made such a quick decision to abandon her.

Qu Yimian's temperament had already undergone a tremendous change under the influence of the Heavenly Demon. After the complete memory fusion, apart from Gu Xia, the culprit who caused everything, she now saw everyone in the Qingyun Sect who chose to abandon her as equally guilty.

It just goes to show that people are all hypocritical.

When Gu Xia left Qingyun Sect, she was the center of attention, watching him leave in sorrow from a high and mighty position.

Now, if I were the one being expelled, I wouldn't be able to accept such a huge drop in status.

To be honest, Yue Ming, the sect leader, is indeed ruthless.

Both she and Gu Xia were once direct disciples of the Qingyun Sect, and were also his disciples.

But the other party still said no and that was it.

But it doesn't matter. Qu Yimian clenched her palms, feeling the power flowing through her body.

She is no longer the person she used to be.

Qu Yimian originally had no intention of doing anything to Yue Ming. Although she resented him, she only wanted him to suffer some pain and injury.

But Yueming's words, "You are not worthy to be compared with your senior brother," completely enraged her.

A hint of red appeared in the girl's eyes as she released demonic energy, and a murderous intent quietly surfaced within them.

Yue Ming naturally sensed the danger and quietly took precautions.

Following Gu Lanyi, the other three members of the Qingyun Sect finally remembered that their master was still in dire straits. The battle here had already been decided, and the experts of the three clans had all been killed. The remaining cleanup work, such as cleaning up the battlefield and eliminating any survivors, did not need to be taught personally.

All they need to do is solve the problems.

Therefore, without much hesitation, the other disciples followed suit.

I almost forgot, they also have a master.

A group of filial sons-in-law only realized this belatedly.

On the way, Gu Xia suddenly remembered to ask Jiang Chaoxu, "Fourth Senior Brother, what did you do to make all those demons come after you?"

Jiang Chaoxu glanced at her and smiled, "It's nothing really."

He moved his fingertips and slowly took out something. "After you self-destructed, the sect was in chaos. I sensed the aura of my clansmen, so I secretly hid something."

A mermaid pearl lay prominently in the boy's fair palm.

Unlike any Gu Xia and the others had ever seen before, this mermaid pearl had an unimaginable luster, with a vibrant blood-red color within its perfectly round shape.

"This is not just a single mermaid pearl, but rather the result of the refinement of many energies."

"Junior Sister," Jiang Chaoxu said softly, "they are in great pain."

Those were actually... his clansmen.
