Magic Sect of Beauties: The Strongest Mage is in a Cultivation World

Chapter 319 Standoff in the Great Wulong Forest!

The sun was getting tired.

Yang Wei and Mu Lingxi had been walking quietly for nearly an hour, but with Mu Lin joining them, things got livelier. The proud and beautiful lady sat on Yang Wei's shoulders, her soft thighs framing his head.

"Are you sure you're okay down there?" Mu Lin asked.

Her hands were playing with Yang Wei's snowy white hair.

"Err, don't worry, you're light as a feather..."

Yang Wei looked up, trying to catch a glimpse of her face.

Next, he grinned broadly.

Mu Lin chuckled softly, looking quite pleased with her beloved as she covered her mouth with her delicate hand.

"That's how you talk to a lady. Any other man might've said something silly like 'you're not that heavy.' Seems like my man knows how to handle things. Ohohoho~ how competent."

Anyone could tell that she was doing all this just to get under her elder sister's skin. Throughout the journey, Mu Lingxi stayed calm, but Yang Wei could sense the tension simmering beneath her surface.

She seemed like a volcano, ready to blow at any moment.

Sigh~

"Let's... just keep moving."

Now, it was clear how Mu Lingxi ended up in Yang Wei's Dragon Space Ring. Experience new tales on empire

When Yang Wei went to tell Mu Lin he was leaving for the Eastern Continent, he unexpectedly ran into He Dongmei instead.

She wasn't there to prevent anyone from disturbing Mu Lin's rest; she was actually standing guard because Mu Lin had left for the Mu Clan settlement with help from Yun Feiyan.

There, Mu Lingxi discovered the Dragon Space Ring that her father had kept as a small wedding token for Yang Wei.

That's how she ended up joining them here.

...

At the same instant...

Huang Xiuwen continued walking with her two Core disciples.

The two looked utterly exhausted??as if their souls had been sucked out of their lifeless bodies.

Despite being Nascent Soul cultivators, the journey through the 4,000-kilometer Great Wulong Forest had taken its toll on the two disciples, especially with nearly a week of patrolling.

The celestial Qi infused in the forest's earth made it greatly challenging for anyone below the Nascent Soul stage to endure even half a day of walking without struggling.

Xu Haocheng couldn't hold back anymore. "Elder... are we really going to keep going? It's been days. We've searched everywhere and found nothing. Can't we..."

Huang Xiuwen cut him off abruptly. "My orders were clear: we secure every inch of this forest before we leave. And I won't leave until I'm certain there's no Moon Nectar Flower here."

She gave Xu Haocheng a pointed look.

????Silence~

"You're not usually this lazy. We've only been walking for about two days. Why are you, a Nascent Soul cultivator, having the audacity to complain?"

With a bright smile masking the seething anger beneath his red-hot face, Xu Haocheng replied, "Elder, we've been at this for nearly ten days, almost a whole week. If we ran through the forest, we could cover more ground in less time and not be so worn out."

Completely missing the poorly hidden anger on his tense, burning red face, Huang Xiuwen remained composed as she faced forward.

"Disciple Xu, it seems you've mistaken our assignment for a leisurely stroll! We're here to patrol, not to play hide-and-seek in the Great Wulong Forest."

She misunderstood their words once more.

Xu Haocheng blinked, momentarily stunned.

To the left, He Yaqi just chuckled??at least this time, she wasn't the one dealing with their elder's bad communication skills.

Xu Haocheng refocused. "I-, I meant to say, Elder, that we could be more efficient if we altered our strategy slightly..."

Huang Xiuwen waved her hand. "Point taken. We shall stick to our patrol route. No running into through forest unless we're being forced to..."

"Eh?"

They marched onward.

The two Core disciples were silent on the matter.

They knew any words would be misunderstood, and never in a good way.

It felt like a lost cause.

Soon, Xu Haocheng spotted something ahead and pointed.

"Look, there are people up there."

He Yaqi raised an eyebrow.

"That doesn't make sense. The Hallmaster said all sect and clan members were evacuated from this forest."

"That means..." Xu Haocheng hesitated, thinking.

Huang Xiuwen's eyes narrowed sharply.

"They're spies."

Without a moment wasted, they sprinted towards the figures ahead.

ba????TOOOOM!!

Huang Xiuwen, the fastest among them, was surprised when one of the figures vanished and reappeared right in front of her in a gust of wind.

It was Mu Lingxi!

Huang Xiuwen drew her sword in a flash, but Mu Lingxi blocked with her fist, creating a powerful shockwave that trembled through the entire forest!

Both women stared at each other in astonishment.

They were both Spirit Ascension cultivators!

Meanwhile...

Xu Haocheng and He Yaqi raced towards Yang Wei, who was carrying Mu Lin. As their swords moved in for an attack, Yang Wei's Martial Black Emperor powerfully manifested, effortlessly blocking their blades with a finger each!

"Tsk, tsk. That's not how you welcome visitors..." Yang Wei quipped casually.

The two Core disciples were stunned.

"WHAT?!"

"H-, HOW DID HE??!!"

They quickly retreated to where Huang Xiuwen had positioned herself, creating a tense standoff with the other group.

Mu Lingxi narrowed her eyes at Huang Xiuwen, sizing her up.

Hrmm, she's at the Spirit Ascension stage, just like me. I shouldn't be surprised. Cultivation techniques in the Eastern Continent are way ahead of those from the other three continents. But there's something odd about her eyes... they almost resemble a dragon's eyes. And I should know, considering our sect revolves mostly around them.

She stayed alert with her spiritual senses sharp. This woman seemed to match her speed, so she couldn't afford to let her guard down even for a moment.

Without wasting any time, Huang Xiuwen tightened her grip on her sword and spoke firmly.

"We are cultivators from the Godless Star Record Sect, aligned with the Sky Kingdom. The Great Wulong Forest belongs to our nation by imperial decree. You're trespassing. Identify yourselves."

Yang Wei flashed a smile and waved casually.

"Oh, hi. We're the trespassers."

????Silence~

Silence filled the air, broken only by the rustling of leaves.

Everyone was taken aback by Yang Wei's unexpected response.

Mu Lingxi couldn't contain her disbelief. "What kind of answer is that?!"

Yang Wei shrugged nonchalantly. "Just trying to lighten the mood."

"Lighten up my ass!"

"I can do that too..." Yang Wei teased.

Mu Immediately frowned. "Husband!" she scolded him.

Offhandedly, Yang Wei chuckled and patted her thigh. "Just kidding, honey."

"Hmph!" Mu Lin huffed, turning her gaze away.

Trying to regain control of the tense situation, Xu Haocheng pointed his sword at the trespassers. "Don't move or else!"

"Or else what?"

Yang Wei gave him a dead stare.

Xu Haocheng hesitated. Something held him back from acting further.

What's happening to my body... why are my hands shaking? I clearly have a higher cultivation level than this worthless trash, and yet I can't seem to stop shaking. What's happening?!

The answer was simple.

In his past life, Yang Wei faced many moments of mortal danger and defeated numerous powerful opponents. During their tense standoff just now, Yang Wei managed to project his hidden killing intent directly into Xu Haocheng's keen spiritual senses.

In that moment, Xu Haocheng didn't see Yang Wei; he saw a savage, ancient blood-devouring beast!

The terrifying aura was mind-breaking, and Xu Haocheng couldn't resist it at all!

"No..."

The young cultivator stared down at his pants.

They were drenched in urine!
