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

Inside the tunnel, the dignified Peak Master of Qinglian Peak, Qinglian Shangren, was crawling along, with Meng Qingchen right in front of him.

After entering the tunnel, the master and apprentice proceeded with extreme caution.

Meng Qingchen had been injured before, and now, as she crawled, she felt as if ants were gnawing at her body, causing unbearable pain.

But thinking of his second senior brother and junior sister's injuries, he felt ashamed and secretly annoyed that he had been so careless. How could he, a person who had been reborn, have been deceived by a mere Long Jiuqing?

Fortunately, just as Master Qinglian had predicted, they crawled for about a mile before discovering a hidden three-way intersection.

“Master, there really is a fork in the road here, a three-way intersection, with three paths in total. We didn’t notice it when we came here before.”

When Meng Qingchen saw the fork in the road, cold sweat began to pour down his forehead.

He cursed Long Jiuqing in his heart for being utterly despicable and shameless.

"Just as I predicted, Long Jiuqing must have discovered that you were following him from the very beginning, so he deliberately had his half-human demon beasts dig this tunnel to lure you to the Misty Valley so that we would both be injured."

Master Qinglian had an expression of complete understanding.

His gaze lingered on the three forks in the road for a moment. He had no way of knowing which fork Long Jiuqing had gone down. If he was too late, Long Jiuqing might escape.

"We will split into two groups. I will go to the first fork in the road, and you will go to the third fork."

If you discover any trace of Long Jiuqing, remain still and immediately inform your master. Your master will then come to your aid.

Master Qinglian gave him instructions, and Meng Qingchen nodded. This time, he was determined to make amends for his past mistakes.

He couldn't help but clench the Seven Killings Flags hidden in his sleeves again.

Later, he wanted to let Long Jiuqing experience the power of the souls within his Seven Kill Formation.

The master and apprentice immediately split up and went down two separate paths.

Master Qinglian climbed a few steps, and then he felt something touch the ground beneath his hands and feet.

That thing was cold and round.

Master Qinglian was slightly surprised and looked down.

But just as he was about to take a closer look, a series of loud explosions came from the side road that Meng Qingchen had gone to, not far behind him.

"not good."

Master Qinglian's expression changed drastically. Almost simultaneously, a deafening explosion came from beneath his hands and feet.

The thunderbolt exploded.

When Ye Yunong ransacked the storeroom of Lihuozhuang that night, in addition to the spirit stones and spirit treasures, she also saw boxes of fire thunder.

Those fire bombs were unique mid-level spiritual weapons of Lihuo Manor. Each one was about the size of a ping-pong ball, and their power was an enhanced version of modern gunpowder.

Ye Yunong then put them all away.

Just now, when she and the half-human demon beast were retreating, she deliberately had the half-human demon beast remove the illusion of the three-way intersection. In this way, as long as Master Qinglian and the others catch up, they will definitely find the intersection.

At that time, Ye Yunong did not hesitate and buried dozens of fire mines on the first and third forks in the road.

Only after burying the fire mines did she leave with peace of mind.

When the explosion occurred, the ground in the tunnel where Ye Yunong was located trembled violently.

She immediately lay down on the ground, and with a thud, the gray soil and rocks on both sides of the tunnel fell to the ground.

A moment later, there was another deafening explosion.

"The fire and thunder from the Volcano Village are quite powerful. Once they explode, in addition to causing serious injuries, all these side passages will be destroyed and collapsed."

It was no longer possible for Master Qinglian to catch up using the underground passage.

Ye Yunong pondered to herself until the explosions subsided. Then, she spat a few times and dusted herself off.

Compared to what Master Qinglian did to her before and after her rebirth, all of this was nothing.

Ye Yunong remained calm and continued crawling forward.

After climbing another half mile, she finally saw a cave entrance, which should be the entrance that the half-human demon beast had dug to the vicinity of Long Jiuqing's residence.

Ye Yunong crawled out of the cave.

As she climbed out, she saw a misty fog all around her, an environment that was somewhat similar to the Misty Valley.

Ye Yunong was secretly surprised, "Could it be that Long Jiuqing also lives in a place similar to Misty Valley?"

Ye Yunong walked forward, and after only a few steps, she heard a rushing sound of water.

The next moment, she saw it...

Ye Yunong covered her mouth to stop herself from crying out, but her eyes were wide open like copper bells, and she saw the scene in front of her through the fog.

"No wonder film and television directors love to shoot pictures of beautiful women emerging from the bath. This same principle applies to men as well."

Before Ye Yunong's eyes was a vivid and sensual picture of a handsome man emerging from a bath.

The man had skin as smooth as cream, broad shoulders, and a slender waist with several lean and powerful muscles. Further down... his long, silvery-white hair floated on the water like fine silk, perfectly concealing the alluring scenery below his waist.

"Have you seen enough?"

Through the mist, the man's voice was wet and carried an indescribable allure.

Long Jiuqing sat as if on a throne, his arms outstretched, leaning comfortably against a steaming hot spring pool.

Holy crap!

Ye Yunong cursed the half-human demon beast inwardly for being shameless. Why did you have to dig a hole in Long Jiuqing's bathhouse? Of all places to dig a hole, why did you have to dig one in the middle of the bathhouse?

"Don't look at what you shouldn't see. I didn't expect you to be taking a bath in broad daylight. You can continue, I'll come back later."

Ye Yunong hurriedly stepped back; was this a scene she could watch for free?

This man is so dangerous!

"stop,"

In the hot spring, the man's voice sounded like a powerful immobilization spell; just two words were enough to freeze Ye Yunong in place.

"Did I let you go?"

Long Jiuqing's lips, which looked so inviting to kiss, curved slightly upwards.

He reached out his hand and beckoned to Ye Yunong with his finger.

Ye Yunong felt as if her hands and feet were being pulled by strings, and she had become a puppet, stumbling and staggering towards the hot spring.

"thump!"

Ye Yunong plunged headfirst into the hot spring.

Her hands and feet still wouldn't obey her commands, and she gulped down several mouthfuls of hot spring water.

Just when she thought she was going to become the first pitiful cannon fodder female to drown in the villain's bathwater, a hand appeared around her waist, and she was pulled out of the water.

Ye Yunong spat out a mouthful of water and reached forward with both hands. As she touched it, she suddenly felt that the skin under her hands was incredibly smooth and elastic.

She then realized that after being pulled out of the water, she was sitting on Long Jiuqing's lap in a very ambiguous position.
