Three months had passed but Ning Fan had never left the Buddha Tower.
He held Mu Weiliang's hand and transferred his magical energy bit by bit, helping her to refine the seven True Buddha relics.
That's right, it was only the initial refinement. Only when the seven relics were completely refined would Mu Weiliang be completely resurrected.
Even though she was still unconscious, Mu Weiliang could clearly feel the warmth from Ning Fan's palm.
"Light, wait for me …" In her dream, she spoke in her sleep. She was looking forward to this true reunion.
A hundred and fifty million years of slumber in exchange for a glimpse of the Star Palace was far from enough to comfort him.
She missed Ning Fan very much. She really missed him …
She knew that only the real Su Sheng was qualified to stay by Ning Fan's side.
In just three months of deep sleep, Mu Weiliang's consciousness had recovered by one percent. Perhaps in another twenty or thirty years, she would completely awaken.
Ning Fan could wait. He could.
For cultivators, twenty to thirty years of time was but a blink of an eye.
The thirty years that Ning Fan had waited for her for was just too insignificant compared to the one hundred and fifty million years that she had waited for him.
He took out the ancient green jade coffin. It was the ancient coffin that accompanied Mu Weiliang for countless lonely days and nights.
With Ning Fan's current knowledge, he could see that this green coffin was as mysterious as the Heaven-Avoiding Coffin that the Old Monster used to store his beloved.
It wasn't that the materials used to make the coffin were precious, but rather that the coffin contained the variables of the Heavenly Daos. It could conceal the mysteries of the heavens, deceive the living, and possess the miraculous effect of nourishing life force.
In the coffin, there was an obscure spirit sense. That spirit sense contained a kind of melancholy emotion. With Ning Fan's current cultivation base, he could vaguely sense it.
"The aura of this spirit sense … it's Weiliang …"
Ning Fan remained silent. He finally understood why Nanyang Zi could not open the green coffin but he could directly open it.
This was because before Mu Weiliang died, she laid down in the green coffin and sealed herself in it.
This was because Mu Weiliang had set up her Divine Sense to only allow the person she was waiting for to open the coffin and bring her into this world.
She was waiting for Ning Fan.
This coffin could prevent the vitality of the body of the person lying in it from dissipating. Even after a hundred million years, the body would not rot.
To Mu Weiliang, who was waiting to be resurrected, the more life force in her body, the better.
Sleeping in the green coffin required less time than sleeping in the outside world.
Ning Fan placed Mu Weiliang into the green coffin and closed the lid. Then, he carefully placed her in the Yuan Yao World.
In order to give Mu Weiliang a quiet environment for her resurrection, Ning Fan had even moved the corpse of the Realm Beast which had been cut into two in the Yuan Yao World into a certain unused space covered in red mist in his Cauldron Ring.
In the Star Palace, Ning Fan had once found the herb garden of the ancient Heavenly Court. It was already in ruins. However, the female corpse at that time liked the herb garden very much and begged Ning Fan to take it away.
Ning Fan moved the medicinal garden into the Yuan Yao World and filled it with various spiritual herbs. He then placed the green coffin at the center of the medicinal garden where the butterflies were dancing.
If one day, when Mu Weiliang woke up, the first thing she would see would be her favorite herb garden and her favorite scenery.
Three months later, Ning Fan left the Buddha Tower with injuries all over his body. If he still doesn't come out, Yue Lingkong would probably be worried.
For three whole months, Ning Fan had always been busy with Mu Weiliang's resurrection. He actually did not have the time to deal with the injuries on his body.
The devil qi in his primordial spirit had already dissipated. He could turn into a devil again at any time.
The thousands of wounds on his body were also healed under Ning Fan's almost monstrous self-healing ability.
Only a row of tiny teeth marks remained on his arm. They were bitten by Mu Weiliang. Ning Fan was reluctant to erase those scars.
When Ning Fan left the Buddha Tower safely, Yue Lingkong who had been guarding him for three months finally heaved a sigh of relief.
Seeing Ning Fan walk out alone without bringing Mu Weiliang with him, she was a little worried.
"Little Cucumber, where's Weiliang? Is she alright? "
"Put it down. She's fine. She's much better than I imagined. As for you, after not seeing you for three months, you seem to have lost some weight. "Ning Fan caressed Yue Lingkong's face. When he saw that she looked haggard, he said with concern.
"Let's go. Let's go and have a rest. As for Fellow Daoist Xuan, I know you have a lot of questions to ask me. I will meet you three days later. "
Ning Fan knew that even if Xuan Yi did not dare to be dissatisfied with him for destroying the Buddha Tower, he would certainly ask him about the reason.
He did not want to tell Xuan Yi about him taking away the seven relics. However, he did not have the intention to hide the fact that he destroyed the Buddha Tower either.
He kept the four spiritual puppets and pulled Yue Lingkong up. The two of them left openly in front of the group of Six-Winged Clan experts. No one dared to stop them.
Ning Fan did not leave the Six-Winged Clan. He just returned to the guest house. This made Xuan Yi feel relieved. He did not give up on his plan to rely on Ning Fan.
After the life-and-death battle in the Buddha Tower, Ning Fan did not even change his clothes. His entire body was still stained with blood.
Under Yue Lingkong's service, Ning Fan took a bath and changed his clothes. Then, he slept on the same bed as her.
With Yue Lingkong's arrogance, she had never bathed anyone in her entire life. However, when Ning Fan made a request, she realized to her dismay that it was getting harder and harder for her to refuse his request.
"Damn it. I'm actually being controlled by Little Cucumber. This isn't normal!"
While she was cursing and swearing, she helped Ning Fan wash his whole body. What an awkward personality!
When she was dragged onto the bed by Ning Fan, she actually did not refuse him. This made her feel incredulous. Could it be that she subconsciously desired for something to happen between them?
"Little Cucumber, I want to sleep alone … I'm tired …" She did not mean what she said.
"I know you're tired. You've been guarding me for three months. It's been hard on you. Aren't I here to compensate you?" Ning Fan's lips curved into an ambiguous smile.
"Compensation? Humph! I don't need any compensation! "Yue Lingkong's brows turned cold. She was very dissatisfied with Ning Fan's behavior.
Could it be that I, Yue Lingkong, am an outsider in Ning Fan's eyes? Does he need compensation for helping me with some small matters? Why is he treating me like an outsider?
"Are you sure you don't want any compensation?" Ning Fan's eyes became even deeper.
"No. Get lost!" If it wasn't because Yue Lingkong was sleeping at the side of the bed, she really wanted to kick Ning Fan off the bed. How dare he treat her like an outsider? He must be tired of living!
"You don't even want to compensate me with my 'body'?" Ning Fan enunciated the word 'body' very clearly.
All of a sudden, all of Yue Lingkong's anger was suppressed in her stomach, causing her face to turn red.
"W-What do you mean by compensating me with my body …" She actually wanted this compensation.
"It's this …" Ning Fan's large hands wandered around Yue Lingkong's delicate body. He turned around and pressed his body against hers, sealing her lips.
As if she was electrocuted, Yue Lingkong's body instantly softened. Her cheeks were burning hot.
Even though she had done it with Ning Fan once, she was doing it with the body of a virgin at that time. She was only left with the pain of being torn apart. Moreover, she was completely unconscious during the latter half of the process. She did not know how to respond to Ning Fan's kiss at all.
The buttons on her clothes fell off one after another. The hem of her creased skirt was also lifted by Ning Fan. His palm had already reached the wet and tender area between her legs.
"Mm …"
Yue Lingkong let out a soft moan. Her long and narrow eyes were filled with lust as if water was dripping out of them.
"Little Cucumber, I've told you before that I'm going to f * ck you until you want nothing more. Don't even think about sleeping tonight!" Yue Lingkong had always been tough. She turned around and pressed Ning Fan under her body. She actually wanted to take over his body.
"… Up to you …" Ning Fan was speechless. He had a feeling that he would be raped by Yue Lingkong tonight.
However, a moment later, he felt the heat on his lower body piercing into a piece of soft and moist flesh. All of a sudden, Ning Fan thought, So what if I'm raped by Yue Lingkong? After all, I'm sure that I won't lose anything.
He flicked his finger and extinguished the candle flame with a gust of wind. The room became dark.
Waves of panting and moaning lit up the night sky.
…
Three days later, Yue Lingkong who looked radiant accompanied Ning Fan to look for Xuan Yi.
During these three days, Ning Fan condensed his Primordial Lightning Armor once again. He erased the Buddhist Seal of the Swastika Character and recovered the invisibility ability of the Heaven Deceiving Cloak.
During these three days, Ning Fan slept on the same bed with Yue Lingkong every night. He tried his best to serve her until she was comfortable.
Yue Lingkong's first time had left a huge shadow in his heart. This shadow had already been erased during the three nights of pleasure. What replaced it were memories that made her wish she was dead.
"Little Cucumber, not bad … You're the man whose endurance is the longest that I've ever seen!" Yue Lingkong's tone was rather boastful as if she had experienced a lot of sexual intercourse. In reality, she had only had intimate contact with Ning Fan a few times. What she said was obviously just trying to look impressive.
"… I cultivate the Yin Yang Transformation. Plucking yin is my strength. If you like to last longer, I can even last longer. I'm just afraid that you won't be able to endure it and beg for mercy again …" Ning Fan's lips curved into a playful smile. During these three nights, Yue Lingkong was considered to have received her first sexual intercourse. She had begged for mercy many times.
"Will I beg for mercy from you? You must have misheard me! Just you wait. I'm going to teach you a lesson tonight! " Yue Lingkong was so angry that she gritted her teeth. She was still unconvinced. Today, she must f * ck Ning Fan until he begged for mercy to save her face.
"Hehe. Young Master Zhou and Venerated Moon really have a good relationship. It really makes me envious."
The conversation between the two was overheard by a woman who interrupted them.
That lady was wearing a pink dress. She walked towards them in an enchanting manner with an inexplicable smile.
Her long hair was coiled into a bun. A jade hairpin was loosened and a golden hairpin was inserted into the bun. Her long pearl ornaments hung down from her head, giving off a gentle clanking sound in the breeze.
Her skin was snow-white and her cheeks were rosy. Her beautiful eyes were filled with lust and desire. On the left side of her face, there was a violet tattoo that extended into her hair, adding a bit of seductiveness to her appearance.
"Miss, you are …" Ning Fan was slightly surprised. He should have never seen this lady in the Six-Winged Clan. However, the eyes of this lady were enchanting and charming. They were obviously filled with respect and admiration for Ning Fan. Obviously, she had seen him before.
Ning Fan sensed a trace of familiar aura. After thinking carefully, he immediately understood who the beautiful lady in front of him was.
This demonic-looking lady turned out to be that lady from before.
"So it's Miss Fen Chi. I didn't expect that you have already successfully reconstructed your physical body. In just three months, you managed to reconstruct your physical body and moreover, the reconstruction is almost flawless. I'm sure the Six-Winged Clan must have paid a huge price to help you reconstruct your physical body. With your identity, I don't think you should receive such respectful treatment, right? "
Ning Fan's furrowed brows relaxed. The lady in front of him was undoubtedly the primordial spirit realm female cultivator whom he had casually saved previously – Fen Chi.
He did not expect that Fen Chi who was in her primordial spirit state would actually have such a beautiful appearance after she reconstructed her physical body which was only slightly inferior to Yue Lingkong.
Somehow, after Fen Chi reconstructed her physical body, Ning Fan faintly felt that the subtle connection between him and her had become even closer.
When he saw Fen Chi, the diagram of the six wings in the devil marks on his back suddenly became scorching hot.
"I have just reconstructed my physical body. I didn't expect that Young Master Zhou would actually not recognize me. It seems like Fen Chi is not worth mentioning in Young Master's heart … "
The women of the devil race were even more open-minded than the women of the demon race.
Fen Chi's words actually contained a hint of flirting with Ning Fan. However, the hint of disappointment in her eyes was not fake. It seemed like Ning Fan not recognizing her really made her feel a little disappointed.
As soon as she thought of Xuan Yi's order, Fen Chi calmed herself down and said with seductive eyes.
"Young Master, please follow me. The great elder has been waiting for Young Master in the Feather Forest Palace since early morning. He has something to tell Young Master."
"Fellow Daoist Xuan, are you going to tell me the secret that I mentioned just now? I'm very curious about what secret Fellow Daoist Xuan has that can move my heart and make me accept the Six-Winged Clan. "
"I don't know what the great elder wants to tell me. However, I don't think it will disappoint Young Master." Fen Chi shook her head. She did not know what the great elder was thinking.
While they were talking, the three of them had already arrived at the Feather Forest Palace. This place had always been the most secretive place of the Six-Winged Clan. However, there was no one guarding it today. All the guards had been withdrawn by Xuan Yi. Perhaps he was afraid that others might hear the secret.
Xuan Yi, on the other hand, trusted Ning Fan. He was not afraid that he would be killed by Ning Fan alone.
That's right. Currently, Xuan Yi was just a Half-Step Void Refinement Realm cultivator. If Ning Fan really has the intention to harm them, how could they stop him from harming them even if they have a few more guards?
The three of them stopped outside the Feather Forest Palace. Fen Chi bowed politely and was about to leave. Her eyes secretly glanced at Ning Fan with some inexplicable feelings.
"We've arrived at the Feather Forest Palace. Young Master Zhou and Venerated Moon, please come in. I'm only responsible for leading the way. I don't have the right to listen to your conversation. I'll take my leave first."
"Wait. Fen Chi, come in too. The matter we're discussing today is related to you!" Xuan Yi's voice resounded from the Feather Forest Palace as if he had made a difficult decision.
"Understood." Fen Chi naturally did not dare to disobey the great elder's order. She followed Ning Fan and Yue Lingkong and pushed the door open and entered the palace together. However, she took a few steps back because of her status. She did not dare to walk side by side with the two of them.
Ning Fan's eyes revealed a thoughtful look. He was trying to guess what the secret that Xuan Yi was referring to was and how it was related to Fen Chi …
Xuan Yi was not in a hurry to speak. He seemed to still be making up his mind. He waited on the small red clay stove and brewed spiritual tea. After that, he distributed the tea to everyone.
After brewing the tea and drinking the tea, Ning Fan's expression was still calm and composed. He sipped the spiritual tea with Yue Lingkong. Xuan Yi, on the other hand, smiled bitterly. He could not sit still anymore. He put down the spiritual tea and cupped his fists at Ning Fan.
"Fellow Daoist Zhou, may I ask what happened inside the Buddha Tower? Why was the tower destroyed …?"
"I don't know." Ning Fan smiled and sipped his tea. He only answered with 'I don't know' and pushed all the responsibility away.
Ning Fan believed that Xuan Yi had investigated the ruins of the Buddha Tower after the incident. However, he certainly could not find any clues about the tower's destruction.
Ning Fan also believed that even if he did not say anything, Xuan Yi would not continue to pursue the matter regarding the Buddha Tower. Xuan Yi was a smart man. The Buddha Tower had already been destroyed and the Six-Winged Clan had already declined. It was not worthwhile for him to offend a terrifying enemy like Ning Fan just because of a destroyed tower.
What made Xuan Yi hesitant was also not the matter regarding the Buddha Tower. Since Ning Fan did not want to talk about it, he was also happy not to ask about it. What he was going to say next was the main topic.
"Fellow Daoist, since you don't know the cause of the Buddha Tower's destruction, I suppose the destruction of the Buddha Tower was just an accident just like the destruction of the devil statue. It has nothing to do with you. In fact, what I want to talk to you about today is also not the Buddha Tower. Now, the Six-Winged Clan is in a precarious situation. It is in danger of being divided by the Mist Horn Clan and the Ghost Eye Clan at any time. I sincerely ask Fellow Daoist Zhou to consider and accept the affiliation of my Six-Winged Clan. "
"What benefits do I get from accepting the affiliation of the Six-Winged Clan?" Ning Fan put down the teacup and his eyes turned serious. Whether he would accept the affiliation of the Six-Winged Clan or not would depend on whether Xuan Yi's following words could move his heart.
"Fellow Daoist, have you heard of Great Emperor Mo Luo, one of the nine ancient devil ancestors?"
"I've heard a little about it."
"Then have you heard that Great Emperor Mo Luo has four great slaves? They are Ju Mo, Liu Yi, Gui Mu and Lan Jiao …"
"I've never heard of them." Ning Fan lied. The four great slave clans were a great secret. It was only reasonable for him not to have heard of them.
"Is that so? Fellow Daoist, you might not know about it but the ancestor of my Six-Winged Clan was once the slave of Great Emperor Mo Luo. Of course, the process of becoming a slave is a little unbearable. However, ever since my ancestor became a slave, every generation of my Six-Winged Clan was born with Mo Luo's slave marks. Our lives and deaths can be decided by Mo Luo with a single word. Previously, I was reluctant to hand over the devil statue slate because it might contain the method to break the slave marks … Unexpectedly, I still couldn't keep the slate in the end … "
Xuan Yi sighed. Ning Fan, however, remained unmoved and said indifferently.
"In the cultivation world, the strong survive and the weak die. If there are battles, there will naturally be winners and losers. Even though Fellow Daoist Xuan has lost the slate, at least you managed to keep the Six-Winged Clan from being annihilated. It can be considered as a blessing. "
"Fellow Daoist is right. Now that the slate has been lost, I no longer have any interest in breaking the slave marks. Even though the Six-Winged Clan is lucky enough to survive thanks to Fellow Daoist's reputation, once Fellow Daoist leaves the Six-Winged Clan, I don't know how many people will be willing to come and divide my clan. My Six-Winged Clan indeed needs Fellow Daoist's protection … "
"A straightforward person doesn't beat around the bush. Fellow Daoist Xuan, just tell me directly what secrets are you willing to give in exchange for my protection." Ning Fan shook his head and said straightforwardly.
"If Fellow Daoist Zhou is willing to accept the Six-Winged Clan, I can give an order to betroth Elder Fen Chi to you as your concubine!"
"Concubine?"
Both Ning Fan and Yue Lingkong wore astonished expressions. Could it be that Xuan Yi is planning to obtain Ning Fan's protection by offering a beautiful woman?
No, that's not right.
When Ning Fan recalled the strange feeling of connection between him and Fen Chi, he suddenly realized something. Although Fen Chi's cultivation base was not high, her identity must be somewhat special.
"Great Elder, I, I …"
Fen Chi's cheeks were thoroughly red. She immediately stood up and was at a loss of what to do. She had never thought that the Great Elder would betroth her to someone else.
Xuan Yi waved his hand and interrupted Fen Chi's words. When he saw Ning Fan's calm expression, he nodded his head.
The calmness in his eyes showed that Ning Fan was not bewitched by her beauty. If Fen Chi was just a beautiful woman, she would not be able to move him.
It meant that Ning Fan had more or less seen or guessed that Fen Chi's identity was special. That was why he did not immediately reject her request.
Ning Fan was waiting for Xuan Yi's explanation. Of course, it was about Fen Chi's identity.
If Ning Fan was not mistaken, the secret that Xuan Yi was going to tell him today was definitely related to Fen Chi.
"Fellow Daoist, do you know that all the members of the four great enslaved clans are born with the slave marks on their bodies except for one woman … Every few generations, a woman will be born in the four clans. She will not be invaded by the slave marks and she is born with a special ability that can help the devil race increase their strength. She is the key person for the prosperity of the four great enslaved clans."
"In the era when Great Emperor Mo Luo was still alive, once such a woman appears, she will be conferred the title of 'Devil Concubine'!"
"Only when a Devil Concubine dies can the next one be born. There is no direct connection between the two generations of Devil Concubines. In the same era, the four great enslaved clans can give birth to four great Devil Concubines! "
"Fen Chi is the Devil Concubine of my Six-Winged Clan. In the entire Six-Winged Clan, I am the only one who knows about this secret!"
As soon as Xuan Yi finished speaking, he looked at Fen Chi deeply and sighed helplessly. It was as if marrying Fen Chi to Ning Fan would be a great loss to the Six-Winged Clan.
"Devil Concubine?"
Ning Fan's eyes scanned across Fen Chi and revealed a surprised expression.
Fen Chi's identity was really beyond Ning Fan's expectation.
Besides, Ning Fan also wanted to know what benefits the identity of Fen Chi's Devil Concubine would bring to him and how it would allow his strength to skyrocket.
