Chapter 659: Chapter 659 Tiger Demon Emperor Mansion
Because she remembered.
Last night she was lazy; she went to bed without lighting the lamp or taking off her dress.
It was said that she climbed into Jiang Fan’s bed.
It seems… not incorrect.
But women are never wrong.
“Then how do you explain that time you peeked at me bathing?”
“Despicable, shameless, vulgar!”
Concubine Yunxia angrily glared at Jiang Fan.
I…
Jiang Fan was speechless.
That incident couldn’t be explained.
He waved his hand: “Then let’s call it even!”
“I accidentally entered your Spirit Pond, you accidentally climbed into my bed.”
“Neither of us suffers a loss.”
“Put away your Demon Core.”
Concubine Yunxia moved her wrist, tightly held by Jiang Fan, and said:
“Then why don’t you let go?”
Only then did Jiang Fan realize he was pinning Concubine Yunxia down.
His face flushed with embarrassment, and he quickly let go.
Then rolled to the side, swiftly putting on clothes.
Concubine Yunxia also blushed, her rosy lips slightly parted, and she popped the large Demon Core into her mouth.
Then, with her back to Jiang Fan, she hastily dressed.
However, the more she thought, the more she felt something was amiss.
What does it mean to be even?
Clearly, she was the one suffering both times!
Jiang Fan, that bastard, was he acting wronged?
She ground her teeth, furious: “I don’t care how you got here.”
“Leave quickly before my clansmen wake up!”
“And never let me see you again!”
If the clan found out.
That she spent the night with a man.
There’d be no explaining it even if she jumped into the Yellow River!
Jiang Fan sneered: “I don’t want to see you either.”
If not for the circumstances, he wouldn’t have come to this damned place!
“You!” Concubine Yunxia’s teeth ground audibly.
Thud, thud —
At this moment.
An unexpected knock on the door resounded, making her heart race.
“Yun Xia, are you in there?”
A feeble old woman’s voice came through.
Concubine Yunxia was startled and said: “Clan Leader? Why, why are you here?”
Her heart was instantly in turmoil.
It must have been her earlier scream that alerted the Clan Leader, who came to investigate.
“It’s nothing, just checking if you had a good rest.”
“May I come in?”
The Clan Leader rasped while leaning on a cane.
Jiang Fan felt a chill run down his spine.
Through the stone door, it felt as if a pair of deep eyes were staring at him.
Making him feel suffocated.
This Clan Leader was probably no simple character!
Before Concubine Yunxia could urge him.
He quickly wrapped himself in the Turtle Breath Cloak, not fully dressed, standing silently by the wall.
Concubine Yunxia was secretly flustered.
If the Clan Leader found out, the consequences would be unimaginable.
She glanced at Jiang Fan in his Invisibility State.
His form and breath were concealed, but the blood aura surrounding him was still visible.
With no choice.
She released waves of demon power to fill the room.
This would interfere with the presence of the blood aura.
“Yun Xia?” The Clan Leader inquired once more.
Concubine Yunxia quickly responded: “Ah, I’m here.”
She stepped forward to open the stone door.
An elderly woman with gray hair and wrinkled skin stood leaning on a cane outside.
She wore a black dress and had a stern expression.
Giving off an unapproachable feeling.
“Clan Leader.” Concubine Yunxia was extremely apprehensive.
The old woman showed a hint of concern: “Did you sleep well last night?”
Concubine Yunxia felt even more panicked inside but appeared calm on the surface: “Quite well.”
“Thank you for your concern, Clan Leader.”
The old woman stepped into the room and said: “Come in, I have something to discuss with you.”
Concubine Yunxia felt relieved.
Thinking the Clan Leader had discovered something.
She looked around and saw no other clan members awake, so she was fully at ease.
She closed the stone door and turned back into the room.
“Clan Leader, what are your instructions?” Concubine Yunxia asked, looking at the Clan Leader sitting on the stone stool.
Her heart skipped a beat.
Jiang Fan was hiding invisibly just a step away.
If the Clan Leader extended her arm, she might touch Jiang Fan.
The old woman said: “You should make a trip to the Tiger Demon Emperor Mansion.”
“If you miss it, you’ll have to wait another five years.”
Concubine Yunxia’s expression darkened, and she smiled wryly:
“Last time, I failed to break through to the Nascent Soul and was entangled by evil Qi.”
“Even if I find another chance to breakthrough, it’s useless.”
“Unless I can completely cleanse the evil Qi from my body.”
The Tiger Demon Emperor Mansion opens for a brief interval only due to flaws in the array, every five years.
Only then can one sneak in to seek opportunities.
In a few days, the gap will be at its largest.
It’s the only chance to enter.
The old woman lightly tapped her cane, meaningfully said: “One must strive, not wait.”
“Life is like a journey.”
“You find the carriage crowded and wait for the next one.”
“The next one’s crowded, you still wait.”
“When you finally board the carriage and start moving.”
“Others have already reached the destination and enjoyed the scenery.”
“Cultivation is even more so.”
“Opportunities are never awaited, they’re fought for!”
Concubine Yunxia bowed slightly: “Yun Xia has learned a valuable lesson.”
“I will set off for the Tiger Demon Emperor Mansion soon.”
Her heart was full of bitterness.
The Tiger Demon Emperor Mansion is divided into inner and outer mansions.
Anyone can enter the outer mansion.
In fifty years, it has opened more than ten times.
Five years ago, she entered once when it opened.
But quickly withdrew.
Because she found the stone lions by the roadside had been touched till they shone brightly by predecessors.
Clearly.
In the past fifty years, countless people have entered.
How much useful resource could be left inside?
In reality, it was indeed like that.
The last twenty years, it opened four times.
No one has reportedly gained opportunities from the outer mansion.
All important resources are in the inner mansion.
But the inner mansion.
They can’t enter.
Only with the twenty-four Pill Book Silver Scrolls crafted by the Tiger Demon Emperor, can it be opened.
Once used, the Pill Book Silver Scroll disperses.
In fifty years.
Ten Pill Book Silver Scrolls have been used.
The remaining ten have long vanished amidst a century’s historic turmoil.
The old woman nodded slightly.
She took an object wrapped in a red cloth from her bosom.
“Man conquers nature.”
“Since you dare try, this item won’t be wasted.”
“Take it.”
Concubine Yunxia paused, then took it, feeling its weight.
She uncovered the red cloth.
What caught her eye was a silvery metal piece, shining splendidly!
About palm-sized, radiating with silver light!
Engraved with Demon Race characters.
What could it be if not a Pill Book Silver Scroll?
“Pill Book Silver Scroll?”
Concubine Yunxia asked incredulously:
“Clan Leader, how could there be a Pill Book Silver Scroll within our clan?”
“Who gave it?”
This Pill Book Silver Scroll definitely didn’t belong to the Silver Fox Clan.
Otherwise, five years ago when it opened, she wouldn’t have sighed in regret.
The old woman rasped: “A high figure from the Demon Emperor Court.”
Concubine Yunxia immediately became vigilant: “Which high figure?”
“Why give our clan such a precious thing?”
If a Pill Book Silver Scroll is used correctly, it can change a clan’s fate.
If heavenly fate is found.
The rise akin to the past Demon Emperor could re-occur.
There could appear a second Demon Emperor in the Demon Race!
The old woman’s eyes were calm and deep.
“No need to worry, he bears no malice towards us.”
“Of course, he bears no particular goodwill either.”
“Just take it and use it.”
Concubine Yunxia thought it over, then earnestly tucked it into her bosom with excitement.
This isn’t just a Pill Book Silver Scroll.
It’s also her hope for a second attempt to reach Nascent Soul!
Cough, cough…
The old woman suddenly coughed violently, and a trace of fresh blood was expelled.
Concubine Yunxia’s expression changed, she said: “Please wait, Clan Leader!”
“I’ll go get the medicine from your room now.”
She quickly left.
The old woman watched her figure disappear into the distance.
She slowly turned her head, observing the air beside her, rasping:
“Now.”
“It’s time for us to have a talk.”
“Young man.”
