Villain Cultivator

Chapter 105: 7th Stage Monsters

105 7th Stage Monsters

East of Mountain Goose City

Two women and a dozen men in black armors were floating 1,000 meters above the ground. Below them, mutilated corpses of 40 black-armored men became food for wild beasts.

Xu Xiuying was panting after she had slaughtered the cultivators of the imperial unit. As for Xu Lanying, she kept the leader of the black armor men at bay since they both were the only 7th-stage, who could utilize soul attacks.

The leader of the black-armored men glared at Xu Lanying with glowing black eyes. Despite his monstrous cultivation base, he was still in his 40s. His long black hair and scars could be seen from afar even though his battle helmet covered half of his upper face.

"General Hua Xiong, you've lost so many men to my daughter, but you're persisting on fighting us. Your intention is so obvious that I want to cry. Are you sure that sacrificing so much valuable manpower to ransack a Silver Phoenix branch worth it? 5th-stage cultivators take ages to train, you know?"

The scar-faced general snorted, "The space-time technique belongs to the emperor. If you don't want us to kill all of your disciples, hand over the technique!"

"We don't have the technique."

"Bullshit! Our men have confirmed that the space-time practitioner is living in your building, and you're claiming that you don't have it? Do you think I'm a fool!? Hand it over, or I'll report to the emperor that you've joined Wei Huang's rebellion!"

"We don't have the technique," Xu Lanying gave the general a bright smile.

"…"

General Hua took a deep breath. Since bluffing and directing threatening didn't work, he planned to merge his nascent soul with his body to increase his power output.

As the general was about to finish the fight, his J-Phone vibrated. He used his nascent soul to swipe the phone and picked up the call.

"What? I'm busy."

[My lord, the Xia Clan's patriarch has been a spot in the city, and he has just flown toward your direction. Please be careful.]

"The Xia Clan's head? That Marquis!?" General Hua's face changed. He glared at Xu Lanying in resentment, "What's your relationship with the Xia Clan!?"

Xu Lanying grinned. She repeated the same answer, "We don't have the technique."

"…"

Getting trolled by the woman, General Hua reconsidered his choices. As he couldn't defeat this woman without sacrificing a limb or two, he didn't want to fight another 7th-stage monster from the Xia Clan.

"Men! Retreat! Abort the mission!"

The remaining 5th-stage cultivators glared at Xu Xiuying and flew back. They turned around and flew south, heading to their rendezvous location. The general also withdrew from the fight with regret.

"I guess we're safe."

Xu Lanying sighed, "Yeah, at the cost of our disciples' lives. They should have sent another group to raid your brothel by now."

"If they did, Long Meifang would have fought back and created a commotion. She has a bit of knowledge in arrays, so everyone should be alright for a day or two even if she is fighting alone."

"Oh? You seem to have faith in her."

"As a guard dog, yeah, she's good at it. But as a subordinate, hell no. She's a lazy bum."

As they chatted, the Xia patriarch, whom General Hua Xiong was wary, arrived at the scene.

The hardened expression of the black-beard man could intimidate any human even though he didn't release his killing intent. The late middle-aged man came here with his sky-grade battle armor, which was glowing in blue light. From a glance, he looked like a general from a professional army.

The Xia patriarch stopped and looked around, searching for a trace of General Hua.

"It's been a while, Xia Dun."

Xu Lanying no longer smiled. She pulled Xu Xiuying away from the man and secretly summoned a heaven-grade longsword, preparing for a serious battle.

Xia Dun, the Xia Clan's patriarch, glanced at Xu Lanying, "Ah, it has been 200 years since I last saw you. Your cultivation strength has improved."

"You, too…"

Xia Dun was a peak 7th-stage demon, the same as Xu Lanying. He was also one of the top 10 cultivators of this continent, whom Xu Lanying could never defeat with her human form.

"Relax. I'm here to help you and Wei Huang. Demons like us should unite under one flag, so we can reclaim the continent from the human."

Xia Dun turned around, ignoring Xu Xiuying and Xu Lanying. He located the fleeing squad of Hua Xiong and flew after them.

Looking at the busybody, Xu Lanying sighed. She turned to Xu Xiuying, "Remember this, Xiuying. Never offend that cyclop."

"Who's he, mother?"

Xu Xiuying had never met Xia Dun before. She was curious about the so-called "cyclops", who could intimidate Xu Lanying.

"He was once an undying cyclop tribal chief. During the Great Invasion, he defended against Immortal Fengxian for 7 days to a standstill before his clan managed to retreat from the Aves Continent."

"I-Immortal Fengxian? That human god!? That demon is that strong!?"

"Let's talk about history when we're free. For now, let's hurry back and check your branch."

"O-Okay."

…

Xu Xiuying and Xu Lanying flew back to their sect, praying that the damage would be minimal.

But when they got there, the building was still intact. Nothing changed, except for the parked carriage of Xu Miao.

Xu Xiuying stared at the groom's carriage with a deep frown. She took out her phone to check the unread messages.

Sure enough, the phone displayed 99+ missed calls and 99+ unread messages from Wei Huang. There were several unread messages from others, but they were no longer important.

Xu Xiuying descended and strode into the brothel lobby. She looked around to find a worker, "ANYBODY HERE!? WHY IS THE GROOM'S CARRIAGE STILL HERE!? WHERE IS EVERYONE!?"

Her voice echoed inside the building. Yet, no one showed up to welcome her.

Xu Lanying entered the building. She gazed at the dirty floor and the footprints of over a hundred people rushing inside the building.

"Odd. The emergency array hasn't activated, so the brothel hasn't been attacked. Where are your disciples and workers?"

Xu Xiuying transformed into her real form, a silver-haired succubus. Two bat wings spread behind her back and two sheep horns extended from her temples. Her red eyes flashed as she scanned the entire floor.

Normally, Xu Xiuying avoided using this succubus form since it released demonic miasma, which attracted human cultivators. Experienced ones could easily identify the miasma, and they would spread words that a high-rank demon was in the vicinity.

In this situation, Xu Xiuying didn't care about the consequences anymore. Since the imperial men ambushed her and tried to ransack her sect for the space-time technique, she no longer needed to hide her identity. Even if the local human cultivators found out about her true race, they wouldn't be able to do anything since Wei Huang and the new ally, Xia Dun, would be around to eradicate all humans.

After five seconds of searching through the first floor, she yelled in anger, "FUCK!! THEY'RE ALL GONE!!"

Xu Xiuying destroyed the elder's exclusive elevator and flew through the shaft. She expanded her senses and searched through every nook and cranny, including Xu Miao's room.

Every floor, including the underground dungeons, were emptied. Only prisoners who were kept as practice targets were still there.

Seeing how furious Xu Xiuying was, Xu Lanying also scanned through the building's layout and underground floors. Without difficulty, she found the secret underground passage that Yao Lan and Xu Miao had used.

The succubus mother texted her daughter, "The elders and disciples might have run away when we're busy dealing with those imperial dogs. They shouldn't have gone far. I found a secret path under your building. We should check it out since we might find your favorite disciple."

Advised by her mother, Xu Xiuying also spread her sense and scanned the underground floors. As Xu Lanying had hinted, she also found the underground path.

"I should have done this ages ago! Fuck!"

Xu Xiuying lamented that she should have transformed into her real form and thoroughly searched the brothel when Xiong Zhenzhen went missing last week. Had she done so, she could have found a trace of the traitor and brought her back to the sect along with the hidden stash.

In frustration, Xu Xiuying rushed to the underground floor without waiting for her mother.

Xu Lanying shook her head and sighed. She was disappointed by her daughter's incompetency and her idiocy.

'She thought she was shrewd, but she's still as stupid as ever. Ruling over weaklings for a long time degrades her intelligence. I should have educated her more before I let her manage a branch. Well, losing a bit of resource is nothing. I can get those back after I kill all humans in the city.'

Xu Lanying didn't follow after Xu Xiuying. She walked out of the sect and transformed into her succubus form.

In front of the brothel, many rogue cultivators gathered as they had detected Xu Xiuying's miasma gas. Everyone thought that it was their golden opportunity to use the excuse, "A demon might be lurking inside the building", to raid the Silver Phoenix Sect's branch and abduct some women.

But when they saw a real succubus queen in front of the entrance, all cultivators were shocked.

"A REAL DEMON!"

"DEMON! A DEMON HAS APPEARED!!"

"FUCK!! I THOUGHT THEY WERE EXTINCT!"

Xu Lanying took a deep breath. She complained, "I have a streak of bad luck recently. I need you, little boys, to replenish my energy and resources…"

With a wave of her left hand, pink gas covered the entire red-light district. Over 10,000 humans in the vicinity inhaled the gas.

Female cultivators and commoners fainted. As for the men, they couldn't control their bodies. Their little brothers stood erected, and their legs automatically moved, walking toward Xu Lanying.

Xu Lanying clenched her left fist. Then, all men, who inhaled the miasma gas, ejaculated fountains of white juice. All liquid was drained from their bodies along with their yang energy.

In an instant, male cultivators became dried corpses.

The succubus absorbed the white liquid into her left hand. She obtained countless drops of Yang Qi and Yang Essence from dead cultivators.

That was not all. Xu Lanying activated her telekinesis skill and looted all spatial rings from dead and fainted humans. Within less than 10 seconds, over 10,000 rings were piling before her feet.

Xu Lanying reverted back to her human form and retracted all pink gas by inhaling them back into her lung.

The town restored its peace, but many humans had died.

'This is how you gain resources, Xiuying. You still have a lot to learn.'

Over 10,000 spatial rings floated and followed Xu Lanying into the brothel. She had finished gathering extra resources to make up for Xu Xiuying's blunder.

As Xu Lanying was walking back into the brothel, all women who had inhaled the miasma slowly stood up. They staggered forward and proceeded to the Poseidon Spa House in a trance.

These women were under Xu Lanying's hypnosis spell. As long as the miasma gas of Xu Lanying was in their bodies, they would forever be her slaves.

With just one move, Xu Lanying cleaned the eastern district. From the very beginning, she didn't need Wei Huang's help. She just needed his connection to form an alliance with other strong demons, such as Xia Dun.

While Xu Miao was busy with his quest and personal agendas, major villain clans never stopped fighting and plotting against human cultivators.

Because of Xu Miao's interference and the exposure of Xia Tian's techniques, they indirectly created a storm, which would trouble them in the future.
