The Black Lotus Reborn: The Entire Sect Kneels and Begs for My Forgiveness

Upon hearing this, the junior disciples in the room all suddenly raised their heads.

They hurriedly looked towards the door, just like Master Qinglian, thinking that Ye Yunong would definitely be frightened by Han Yuan and kneel down to apologize and beg for mercy.

That's the Cold Abyss! Not to mention Ye Yunong, whose cultivation is inferior to theirs, even they wouldn't dare to approach that area.

"Ye Yunong, accept the punishment."

Ye Yunong uttered a sentence softly, no longer looking at the tall figure with his back to her.

Her heart was at peace, no longer filled with the anguish she felt before her rebirth.

That mountain-like being she relied on and trusted is dead.

With his back to Ye Yunong, Master Qinglian clenched his fists tightly behind his back when he heard those words.

She still refused to beg for mercy.

Ye Yunong moved slowly, gradually disappearing from everyone's sight.

"Master, my..."

Lu Jinxin was overjoyed to see Ye Yunong punished to guard the Cold Abyss, but that wasn't enough; she still hadn't gotten her Ziwei Star Hairpin.

"go out."

Master Qinglian gave a low shout, and his body temperature dropped sharply, startling Lu Jinxin.

This was the first time her master had ever been harsh with her!

She was fierce to Ye Yunong!

Tears of grievance welled up in Lu Jinxin's eyes. She bit her lip and ran out.

Junce and several junior brothers also withdrew, their steps heavy.

It's all Ye Yunong's fault, she will definitely not let Ye Yunong off!

Lu Jin thought for a moment, then immediately went to the Internal Affairs Hall...

The scenic Biluo Sect has a forbidden area called Hanyuan. Ordinary disciples would immediately detour if they accidentally approached it.

The Cold Abyss was discovered by the founding ancestor. It is a bottomless abyss that never sees sunlight and is filled with extremely heavy yin energy.

Ordinary people wouldn't survive an hour there, and even cultivators would suffer greatly if they came here.

In modern times, the highest temperature in the Cold Abyss is only around -10°C, and the temperature gets lower the deeper you go.

"Have you heard? There's an unlucky disciple who angered the master and was punished to guard the Cold Abyss."

"Is a place like the Cold Abyss only for imprisoning beasts and prisoners?"

"Then you are ignorant. The sect has rules and regulations that punish disciples who commit serious mistakes by sending them to guard the Cold Abyss."

"What's that unlucky guy's name? He should be the first person in the entire Biluo Sect in the last hundred years to be punished and sent to guard the Cold Abyss."

"Ye Yunong, the eldest disciple of Qinglian Peak."

The day the decree from Master Qinglian was issued, Ye Yunong became an instant sensation in the Biluo Sect. Almost everyone knew that the eldest disciple of Qinglian Peak had been punished to guard the Cold Abyss.

Ye Yunong did not reach Hanyuan; to be precise, she fainted on the way before she even arrived at Hanyuan.

She was already injured, and Qinglian Shangren's attack shattered all five of her spiritual roots.

Two disciples from the Enforcement Hall found Ye Yunong, picked her up, flew to the entrance of the Cold Abyss on their swords, and threw her directly onto the teleportation array.

"That's Ye Yunong. She's quite good-looking, what a pity."

"It's because she offended the senior brother in charge. He said he'd take advantage of her illness and kill her."

Both law enforcement disciples had received bribes from their senior brother in charge and wanted to teach Ye Yunong a lesson, so they tampered with the teleportation array.

Logically speaking, since Ye Yunong was punished to guard the Cold Abyss, she should have been sent to an open area outside the Cold Abyss, where she could cultivate nearby.

The Cold Abyss is protected by a barrier, preventing the prisoners and monsters inside from escaping, making it relatively safe.

But now, the teleportation array has changed; as soon as it activates, Ye Yunong disappears.

Deep within the frigid abyss, somewhere.

The air was thick with the stench of blood, and there were severed heads and feet all around.

A monster the size of a lion, with wolf-like fangs and skin harder than rock, was gnawing on the corpses of several other monsters.

At that moment, it smelled the scent of a living person, just like a cat smelling fish, and its eyes lit up.

So many years have passed... and no living cultivators have been seen in the Cold Abyss.

No, there's another one at the very bottom of the Cold Abyss.

But that person... even low-level demonic beasts with little intelligence tremble at the thought of that person and dare not approach that person's territory.

The monsters searched everywhere and finally found Ye Yunong, who had suddenly appeared, in a corner.

The man remained motionless, as if he were dead.

Eat it while it's hot...

Her blood aroused the monster, causing it to become extremely savage, and a large amount of saliva dripped from the corner of its mouth.

The monster pushed off with its feet and pounced on Ye Yunong, about to bite off her neck.

laugh--

At the critical moment, Ye Yunong, who had been unconscious, moved with the agility of a rabbit. She suddenly stood up, thrust her hand forward, and the hairpin pierced the monster's heart.

When the hairpin pierced the monster's body, it trembled violently and its light shone brightly once more.

A flicker of disbelief flashed in the monster's lantern-sized eyes, as if it couldn't believe that this tiny cultivator, as insignificant as an ant, could take its life.

The monster's corpse crashed to the ground and remained motionless.

"They actually sent me to the depths of the Cold Abyss. It must be the Internal Affairs Department's doing. I'll remember this debt."

A ruthless glint flashed in Ye Yunong's eyes.

She was a low-key person, practically invisible in the Biluo Sect, and the only person she had offended was the senior brother in charge of the Internal Affairs Hall.

She was awakened by the icy chill after being thrown into the depths of the abyss.

She wiped the blood off the purple hairpin. The hairpin remained unchanged, except that it emitted light for a longer time than before.

"I guessed right, this hairpin is indeed bloodthirsty. To make it recognize its master, it must be fed."

She deliberately provoked her master so that he would punish her.

The Cold Abyss has no advantages, except for one thing: there are plenty of monsters.

Demon blood, enough to fill you up.

This wasn't her first time visiting Han Yuan; she was quite familiar with the place.

However, before her rebirth, she was punished to guard the Cold Abyss, which happened ten years later. It was because she accidentally discovered a painting in her master's room that revealed the secret her master had always kept hidden in his heart: why he favored Lu Jinxin.

When her master discovered this, he was furious and punished her by making her guard the Cold Abyss...

Returning to the same place, Ye Yunong did not venture deeper into the Cold Abyss.

She cleaned up the scene, made sure there were no monsters nearby, and then checked her injuries.

After the examination, a smile finally appeared on her pale face.

"The Chaos Spiritual Root appeared ahead of schedule. My five spiritual roots were destroyed, my true energy dissipated, and that Jade Vein Pill took effect. The Chaos Spiritual Root grew a little, and my cultivation was also broken down into smaller parts, so I had to start from scratch."

Spiritual roots are not something that can be broken easily, especially since Ye Yunong has five elemental spiritual roots.

She had no choice but to use her master's hand to destroy the five spiritual roots.

Cultivators value cause and effect. If they break the law of cause and effect, it will damage their Dao heart and give rise to inner demons. This is why Ye Yunong did not leave the Biluo Sect immediately.

Master Qinglian saved her, that was the cause; he destroyed her spiritual root, that was the effect.

The great karmic connection between her and Qinglian Peak began to change.

Ye Yunong closed her eyes. The Cold Abyss was filled with yin energy, but for a chaotic spiritual root, it was an excellent place for cultivation. Strands of yin energy swirled around her...

The moment Ye Yunong appeared, a pair of eyes suddenly opened.

At the very bottom of the Cold Abyss, the bones of the dead are piled up like mountains.

This is a forbidden area for demonic beasts; not a single demonic beast in the entire Cold Abyss dares to approach this place.

On the snow-covered mountain of white bones, stood a person.

The man stood like a lone pine tree, his silver-gray hair cascading down to his ankles. Perhaps he had been in the icy abyss for too long, for his skin had taken on a sickly white hue.

"It smells so good."

Something small has wandered in; the smell is so tempting, it looks delicious.

He swallowed twice, then stuck out his tongue and licked his lips. A touch of blood-red hue appeared on his perfectly shaped lips, making him look both alluring and sexy.

The long-lost smell of blood made him happy.

The man chuckled softly, his eyes curving like crescent moons.

His laughter sounded like a sigh and a reproach, like the strings of an ancient zither that had been sealed away for many years being suddenly plucked.
