Chapter 353: Chapter 353: Erasing the Mark, Outer Sect Affairs Manager (Three Updates)
 

“Yun’er!” the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch cradled Chu Yun’er’s face, his eyes brimming with deep affection, “Be my cultivation partner!”

“So direct?!” Ye Feng was stunned.

We’ve only known each other a few days, and now you want to become dual cultivation companions?

Thousand Faces Demon Monarch, you really are quite brazen!

Feeling shy, Chu Yun’er turned her face away, saying angrily, “You… you libertine, get your hands off me!”

“We’re as good as an old married couple, why be shy?” the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch chuckled.

“Who’s an old married couple with you!” Chu Yun’er tried to break free.

But she was only at the first level of the Element Gathering Realm, while the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch was a middle-rank Demon General who could easily subdue her.

“Me, I’m as good as an old married couple with you,” the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch said with a smug smile.

“Shameless!” Chu Yun’er gave up struggling, “I’ve had a dual cultivation partner before, although he perished.”

“I don’t mind,” the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch said with a smile.

“I once had three dual cultivation partners!” Chu Yun’er’s face stern, she said solemnly.

“I quite like that!” the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch made a peculiar chuckling sound of “gei gei gei.”

“Enough, let’s not waste time. We’re still near the Black Stone Wasteland, be wary of the old Sect Master of Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect catching up,” Ye Feng’s voice sounded.

Chu Yun’er looked at the “Young Master Misty” in front of her in surprise, exclaiming, “You… Why do you have another man’s voice?”

“Oh, almost forgot!” the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch hurriedly reverted from his ever-changing state.

In Chu Yun’er’s astonished gaze, the person who had been posing as Young Master Misty now had wisps of white smoke rising from him, creating another figure nearby.

This man, of course, was the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch.

And the one still standing there was Ye Feng.

However, at this moment, Ye Feng was wearing a special mask, so Chu Yun’er couldn’t see his face.

“Bi Lian’er was fake, Young Master Misty was also fake? Are both of you impersonating them?” Chu Yun’er was greatly shocked, not expecting the two to be able to merge into one person.

Even the old Sect Master of Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect couldn’t tell.

This technique was truly magical.

“Indeed, my name is the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch, and this person beside me is my Sect Master Ye…”

“Cough, cough!”

The Thousand Faces Demon Monarch was interrupted by Ye Feng’s coughing in the middle of his sentence.

“It looks like this mysterious Sect Master doesn’t trust me,” Chu Yun’er murmured, looking at Ye Feng wearing the mask.

“My identity is not suitable for exposure,” Ye Feng said.

Chu Yun’er looked back at the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch, finding him not as suave as before, but still not bad.

Especially when she thought about her experiences inside the Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect, she couldn’t help but blush.

“Yun’er, come with me, I’ll treat you to delicacies and spice!” the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch said as he wrapped an arm around Chu Yun’er.

“You… Let go!” Chu Yun’er quickly tried to break free.

“What? You still want to remain in the Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect? You know, that old fellow was trying to kill you,” the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch said somberly.

Chu Yun’er stopped moving at once.

Remembering the old Sect Master’s cold stare, her heart was thrown into disarray, and she let out a long sigh.

“So, come with me,” the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch said.

He realized he had almost “persuaded” Chu Yun’er, and success was within reach.

“I have a mark left by the Sect Master on me. If I go with you, it will surely bring disaster. Moreover, Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect’s foundation is immensely strong; together, you’re merely at the peak of Element Gathering Realm, not a match for them,” Chu Yun’er said, shaking her head.

“A mark?” the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch’s face showed concern.

Ye Feng turned to Chu Yun’er, “If you join our Sect, I could indeed erase that mark for you.”

“The mark is quite special, I’m afraid you can’t erase it, and even if you could, your Sect is unlikely to be a match for the Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect,” Chu Yun’er shook her head.

Now, she saw herself and the people with Thousand Faces Demon Monarch as grasshoppers on the same rope and did not want to harm them.

“That’s not necessarily true!” Ye Feng took off his mask, revealing a handsome face.

Chu Yun’er’s pupils shrank as she looked at Ye Feng’s face. “You… you are the Misty Sect’s Sect Master, Ye Feng!”

As a steward, Chu Yun’er often had the opportunity to go outside and was naturally aware of the recent stir caused by the Misty Sect in the Southern River Basin.

The rumors had it that this power had risen rapidly, with Sect Master Ye Feng having slain two peak-level Demon Generals, and ultimately, even the Demon King of Demon City.

As for Protector Fox Consort Feifei, she had even shattered a Spirit Sea Realm one-horned demon.

Moreover, with the Misty Sect becoming a Star-Level Sect, it was akin to standing within the camp of the County King City’s sect’s main hall.

Such strength was indeed capable of contending with the Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect.

“If Sect Master Ye can erase the tracking mark on my body, I am willing to join your sect,” Chu Yun’er finally changed her mind.

Ye Feng extended his hand and, using a strand of Wind Element Spirit Energy, moved around Chu Yun’er’s body, found a mark in her sea of consciousness, and effortlessly erased it.

From that moment, Chu Yun’er became truly free.

Hundreds of miles away.

The old Sect Master burst out of the ground, ready to track and kill Chu Yun’er following the mark but suddenly discovered that the aura of the mark had disappeared.

“It’s been erased so quickly?”

The Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect’s old Sect Master stiffened in place.

This sort of mark was very special; at least a Spirit Sea Realm cultivation level was needed to remove it, yet the Young Master Misty seen earlier was merely at the peak of the Element Gathering Realm, which could not possibly erase it.

“It seems that Young Master Misty has already met with a powerful figure from the faction behind him. Continuing the pursuit will lead to an earlier encounter and disrupt our Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect’s plans.”

Left with no choice, the old Sect Master could only return to his home base.

In a valley.

Chu Yun’er felt the breath on her body and, finding that the mark had completely vanished, was overjoyed.

“Disciple Chu Yun’er pays respects to Sect Master!”

She quickly knelt before Ye Feng.

“Wait! I have accepted you into the Misty Sect, not as a sect disciple but as a steward,” Ye Feng waved his hand, correcting Chu Yun’er’s words.

“What? A steward? Can I, with merely the first level of the Element Gathering Realm, take on the role of a steward within your esteemed sect?”

“Of course, you can!”

Ye Feng nodded.

He just wanted to say, you’re too old to be a disciple, so you can only be a steward.

Ye Feng quickly took out the sect’s Book of Names, registered Chu Yun’er, and then stamped it with the Sect Leader’s Seal.

“Ding, received Outer Sect Affairs Manager ‘Chu Yun’er’, of middle-rank roots, Element Gathering Realm Level One.”

Upon receiving the system prompt, Ye Feng’s lips curved slightly upward.

He had just inquired with the system and found out that Chu Yun’er met the conditions to be accepted into the Misty Sect.

However, due to her age, she could not become a disciple and could only become a member of the Elders’ Hall.

But because her cultivation level was low, she could only become a steward, which was a rank below an elder.

“From today onwards, you are an Outer Sect Affairs Manager for our Misty Sect. As for the specific duties, arrangements will be made later,” Ye Feng put on his mask again and flew with the two of them towards the Nanlu Mountain Range.

“Sect Master, am I to return with you to the Misty Sect? But once the people from the Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect discover that I’m in the Misty Sect, they will surely become suspicious,” Chu Yun’er had defected from the Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect to join the Misty Sect, and naturally had to consider the interests of the Misty Sect.

“Yun’er, return to what Misty Sect? Follow me back to my hidden retreat in the Nanlu Mountain Range,” the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch hurriedly grabbed Chu Yun’er’s hand.

“Scoundrel, don’t touch me!” Chu Yun’er promptly shook off the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch’s hand and stood on the other side of Ye Feng.

Ye Feng couldn’t be bothered with the matter between the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch and Chu Yun’er.

“Sect Master, how about this—I’ll find a place to hide,” Chu Yun’er suggested.

“It would be best to hide in my retreat,” the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch immediately interjected.

Chu Yun’er gave him an immense glare and said, “I would never hide in your retreat. Seeing how slick you are, you must have harmed countless maidens.”

The Thousand Faces Demon Monarch scratched his head, seemingly admitting to it.

Ye Feng’s lips twitched with amusement, silently noting that Chu Yun’er had good judgment, recognizing that the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch was not the type to be faithful.
