I am just a mortal, why do you all worship me as a saint?

Chapter 225: The little girl is so calm

Chapter 225: The little girl is so calm

But I've never heard of it, so it doesn't matter.

She didn't know how much time had passed since her death, and now she didn't know or recognize any of those so-called "supernatural forces".

Moreover, she had rarely paid attention to these so-called sects and factions before.

Sects and aristocratic families have long ceased to be important figures in Qin Yiyao's eyes.

After all, under the rule of the "Holy Yao Emperor," imperial power was supreme.

In the vast Xuan Tian Realm, there is simply no force capable of directly confronting the Great Qin Dynasty in a one-on-one battle. The Great Qin Dynasty, which occupies half of the Xuan Tian Realm, possesses a vast foundation and strength far exceeding that of other forces. Even the emperors of the demon race must obediently bow their heads and pledge allegiance before the imperial palace.

As for now... Hmph, for example, this Sunfire Dynasty. Qin Yiyao found it hilarious from the very first day she heard about it.

With such a small territory and limited resources, how dare they call themselves a "dynasty"?

I'm not afraid of losing face if I tell anyone.

"I never imagined that the only thing I could do back then was to seal you away, which would lead to such malicious actions by those who came after me."

Qin Yiyao frowned as she looked at the bubbling pool of blood.

Keeping such a dangerous thing around is simply a disaster.

Currently, there is at least one force called the Evil Soul Hall attempting to rescue the soul of the Crimson Flame Demon. Once the Crimson Flame Demon's soul escapes, it's only a matter of time before it regains its physical body.

Once this great demon obtains a physical body...

That would be a huge problem. Back then, she was already at the ninth level of the Saintly Realm, and there were five others who came with her to kill this demon, all of whom were the strongest in their respective cultivation paths at the time.

However, the Crimson Flame Demon has been following the "Crimson Flame Demon Immortal" for many years. When mortals spend a long time with immortals, they will naturally be nourished by the "immortal intent" without realizing it.

Therefore, even though the Crimson Flame Demon ultimately failed to reach the Immortal Rank and its cultivation was only at the eighth level of the Supreme Saint, its power was so strong that it could even cause the heavens and earth to change color and shake the long-vanished boundary wall!

That was a real tough battle.

Qin Yiyao didn't mind doing it again, but her current cultivation level was still a little different from her peak.

Moreover, according to her own understanding, the seventh level of the Supreme Saint realm seems to be the strongest in the world right now... Even those at the fifth level or above are extremely rare, there seem to be only three or four...

Damn it, how did the world become like this?

From the primordial era to the Great Void, then to the era in which she became emperor, and now to this era, it seems that she has been on a downward spiral all along.

"It's time to go back to see Master."

Qin Yiyao had mixed feelings.

Fortunately, with the best master in the world by her side, she wasn't entirely without comfort.

She glanced at the corpses on the ground and sighed.

I need to get stronger quickly.

She can't always rely on her master. After all, she wants to catch up with him, not always fall behind him and receive his favor and protection. She's not good at playing that kind of role.

She hurried back a few steps and then ran into Gu Heng coming down the stone steps. She had actually heard Gu Heng cursing, "Damn, why are these stairs so long?"

"Girl!"

Seeing Qin Yiyao walk up from below, Gu Heng was overjoyed. However, she wasn't completely unharmed; her white dress was covered in dust, the sleeve was torn, and there were some red marks on her cheeks, which pained Gu Heng to see.

The girl was covered in dirt and had suffered some minor injuries.

However, he noticed that the girl was quite calm, and seemed to be humming a tune off-key, clearly in a very good mood...

"Are you alright?" Gu Heng asked with concern.

"What can I do?"

Qin Yiyao smiled and said, "Didn't Master give me poison? I used it properly."

Master was indeed very worried about her.

But she's not that delicate. With such a powerful poison in her hands, dealing with these overconfident guys will be a piece of cake.

Although Gu Heng had given her a rather challenging task, he was still very concerned about his safety. Qin Yiyao felt quite touched.

"..."

Gu Heng's eye twitched slightly.

That's fine too. At least my life is saved, so it's all negotiable.

"Let's go first, or we'll miss the celebration in the capital."

He didn't want to linger any longer. Since Qin Yiyao had already swaggered up here, Gu Heng didn't care what was down there. Although he was scared, he should stay calm, otherwise the little girl would panic too.

"Uh... well."

Qin Yiyao originally wanted to take Gu Heng down with her and tell him that those cultivators were not the real trouble; the real trouble was the soul of a great demon, which she was currently unable to deal with.

But Gu Heng pulled her away resolutely.

So she simply stopped mentioning it. Oh well, it won't be long since she becomes stronger again, and she'll handle it herself then.

Since the seal hasn't been broken yet, let's leave it at that for now.

Having left the underground and entered the deep valley, Gu Heng looked at the setting sun and then at the completely unfamiliar wilderness around him.

Damn, I thought I'd get a nice room at an inn tonight, but it seems I'll be spending the night in the wilderness with that little girl.

"Meow~"

A rustling sound came from the nearby bushes, and a small silver cat darted out.

"Oh dear, I'm so sorry to have kept you waiting."

Gu Heng picked up the little silver cat again, held her in his arms, and brushed the grass off her body.

Actually, Su Jinxi didn't wait outside for long.

It seems this master had a good time, not only releasing everyone, but those members of the Evil Soul Hall who kidnapped people are probably getting a taste of their own medicine now.

"Master, where is this place?"

Qin Yiyao asked.

"Uh, I'm not really sure either... How about this, let's get out of this deep valley first, maybe there's a main road outside."

Faced with her question, Gu Heng could only smile awkwardly.

He was abducted halfway through his journey, and there was nothing he could do about it.

We'll have to go out first and figure it out later.
