Quick Transmigration: Survive to the End

The people from Yaochi Palace were led inside by the steward. After a few steps, they saw Ye Yu, the disciple of the leader of the Sect of All Beings, come out to greet them.

"Greetings, Venerable Xuan Nu."

Yin Yin listened to Ye Yu saying sweet things in front of her, but her attention was completely elsewhere.

She was curiously observing this place, which was known as the number one gate in the world, through the cover of the light gauze on the curtain.

The steps of the front plaza were made of white marble, and the main hall was illuminated by large expanses of skylight. The pillars were adorned with carved beams and painted rafters, making it appear even more luxurious than some imperial palaces.

Upon reaching the main hall, the Night Master of the Sect of All Beings finally appeared and exchanged pleasantries with the Mysterious Woman.

After exchanging a few words with Xuan Nu, the Night Sect Master turned his attention to the Yin Yin sisters who were beside her.

"Are these two the esteemed disciples of the Palace Mistress of Xuan Nu?"

“Indeed,” Xuan Nu tilted her head. “Jingjing and Yinyin, come and pay your respects to Master Ye.”

Upon hearing this, the Yin Yin sisters removed the curtain and stepped forward.

Both sisters are beautiful, but compared to Yin Yin, Lin Jing Jing, who is about to turn fourteen, is more strikingly beautiful.

Not to mention young people like Ye Yu, even the sect leader of the Night Sect, who had seen many beauties, couldn't help but linger on her face for a few more seconds.

The Night Sect Master quickly came to his senses and saw that Ye Yu was still staring intently at Lin Jingjing. He said, "Yu'er, go and fetch the gift I prepared for our meeting."

Ye Yu was brought back to her senses by his shout. Her ears turned red. She realized what he meant, went out to give instructions to change the casually prepared gift to something more lavish, and then came back in.

The Night Gate Master looked at the two sisters in front of him, smiled and asked their ages, then turned his attention to Lin Jingjing.

“Jingjing is about the same age as my little disciple. If she weren’t the beloved disciple of the Xuan Nu Palace Master, I would definitely snatch her back to make her my disciple’s wife.”

He said this as if he were joking, but it also seemed to carry a hint of genuine inquiry.

Although the two sisters felt disgusted by his words, they didn't show it on their faces.

Because they knew that no matter whether it was a joke or a sincere statement, Xuan Nu would never agree.

As they expected, the Mystic Maiden completely ignored the issue.

Upon seeing this, the Night Gate Master didn't say anything more and first had Ye Yu lead them to their resting place.

Perhaps because he had seen Lin Jingjing's beauty behind the curtain, Ye Yu was more talkative than before, and he always tried to curry favor with Lin Jingjing, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

However, he knew his limits and while talking to Lin Jingjing, he also introduced a lot of things to the Xuan Nu Sect members.

Ye Yu told them everything, such as which sects they had visited and where they were staying, saving them the trouble of asking around.

Ye Yu kept talking the whole way, but the accommodations arranged for Yaochi Palace weren't very far away, and they arrived in no time.

He stopped speaking with regret: "The sword appreciation event is scheduled to begin the day after tomorrow. If Yaochi Palace needs anything, just send someone to find me."

After Ye Yu left, Yin Yin and the others finally had a good look around the courtyard.

This courtyard is quite large and closer to the center; it's a large courtyard with smaller courtyards inside, which is more than enough for living.

As you walk further out from here, the courtyard gets smaller and smaller, and the sects that live there become more and more marginalized.

Because the accommodations were spacious, and all the people in Yaochi Palace had their own rooms, the two sisters, Yin Yin and her sister, rarely had such an opportunity, so they specially stayed together.

After tidying up and turning off the lights, the two sisters lay down together intimately for the first time in a long while, but neither of them could fall asleep for a while.

"Yinyin," Lin Jingjing called out, "This Sect of All Beings is really big, but I think the Sect Master Ye seems to be getting a bit old."

Yinyin turned towards her through the darkness and whispered, "It's normal for the Night Gate Master to look a bit old after dominating the martial arts world for so many years."

"Yinyin, you know what I'm talking about," Lin Jingjing said with some dissatisfaction, but quickly whispered to her sister, "Martial artists are not afraid of getting old, but they are afraid of the heavy aura of old age. I can tell from the looks of it that the aura of old age on this Night Sect Master is already starting to show."

It wasn't just a sense of gloom; Yin Yin observed that what emanated from this Night Sect Master was an even stronger aura of death.

If it were before, Yin Yin might not have understood why the Sect of All Beings would send invitations to so many sects with just a single sword, inviting heroes from all over the world to admire it, and even attaching some kind of destiny to this sword. Now, however, she roughly understands.

The Night Gate Master probably sensed his own aging and was somewhat afraid.

They fear that after he leaves, the Sect of All Beings will lack a capable leader and will be divided up by other forces that are already eager to seize power.

Therefore, I want to take advantage of this sword appreciation event to show my prowess to the martial arts community and warn them not to have any wicked thoughts.

But the sword appreciation event hasn't even taken place yet, and the outcome is already obvious.

Even Lin Jingjing could see the aging of the Night Gate Master, so how could other sharp-eyed martial artists not notice?

Considering that the sword appreciation event, which should have been held in spring, was inexplicably postponed for half a year, I wondered if there were even more people with other ideas.

It seems that this sword-rewarding gathering will not only fail to achieve the Night Gate Master's goal of intimidation, but will also accelerate the decline of the All Beings Sect.

"In the end, it has nothing to do with us," Yin Yin said meaningfully. "Anyway, after seeing each other these past few days, we probably won't have this opportunity again in the future."

Lin Jingjing burst out laughing upon hearing her words.

“When I was inside the house, my aunts often said I was mischievous. They should really come and hear what you have to say.”

“I would say the same thing even if they were here,” Yin Yin whispered back to her, “because he dared to set his sights on my sister.”

Lin Jingjing was taken aback upon hearing this, and then hugged Yinyin tightly: "As expected, my sister is still the best to me."

Although the two sisters had faith in the Goddess, it didn't stop them from disliking the covetousness of others.

The reason the Night Gate Master said that was probably because of Lin Jingjing's beauty and her status as the disciple of a top-tier master.

It couldn't possibly be because he was interested in Lin Jingjing.

Besides, listen to what he's saying.

If Lin Jingjing isn't Xuan Nu's disciple, then we should take her back.

Whether he was joking or not, ever since the incident with Zhuo Sikong a couple of years ago, the two sisters have felt uncomfortable with such words.

The two sisters chatted for a while, then went back to sleep head to head and foot to foot.

The next morning, the two sisters woke up early and, seeing that there was no movement in the courtyard, began practicing their internal martial arts inside the house. Only when their aunts started moving around in the courtyard did they take their swords and go out to spar.

Although the opponents we fought along the way weren't particularly tough, it was still real combat.

Through sparring with different people, the two sisters' abilities have both increased significantly, which can be considered as achieving the deeper purpose of Xuan Nu and others in not directly announcing the renaming of Xuan Nu Sect.

Their duel at this point was far more interesting than their competition in Yaochi Palace.

As the two exchanged blows, their swords became even sharper, and their auras grew even more imposing.

The two sisters, caught up in the moment, decided to take this opportunity to settle their differences once again.

But before they could even unleash their true abilities, they heard the Mystic Maiden cough lightly.

The two sisters exchanged a glance and understood that this meant they disagreed. They immediately changed their moves and returned to the previous back-and-forth exchanges, which did not cause much damage.

Once their muscles and bones were relaxed, the two sisters stopped fighting on their own. There was no point in continuing; it would be better to go back to their room and exchange blows with their palms.

When they sheathed their swords, some people nearby started clapping.

Ye Yu emerged from the corridor: "You two junior sisters Lin are truly amazing, far surpassing me at my age."

Ye Yu was five or six years older than Lin Jingjing. At this time, he could barely be considered a second-rate expert, but outside, he could already be called a young prodigy.

In truth, he was inferior to the Yin Yin sisters, but at this moment, he was just saying it; he didn't really think so.

"Since Junior Sister Lin is visiting our sect for the first time, would you like to show me around?"
