Chapter 840: Premeditation (Seeking Subscriptions)_1
After the howl of the wolf had died down, the previous disciple of the Evil Spirit Sect had evidently become the food of the Silver Moon Wolf King!
Shangguan Lin by his side pursed her delicate thin lips and had roughly guessed the fate of that Evil Spirit Sect disciple just now…
Thereupon, she who was sitting paralyzed on the ground, trembling, stood up…
Xu Sheng looked at her feeble appearance and said softly, "Where do you plan to go?"
Shangguan Lin glanced at him with her beautiful eyes and replied coldly, "It's none of your business, stop following me!"
Xu Sheng sighed and looking at her body full of wounds, sighed, "How can you leave in this state now?"
Shangguan Lin did not answer him but instead, clutching her chest, staggered towards the outside of the forest…
Xu Sheng shook his head helplessly, then flashed to her side, and with steady arms picked her up…
He then teased, "Stop pretending to be strong; with you in your current state, who could let you leave on your own with peace of mind?"
He still couldn't bear to just watch Shangguan Lin get into trouble…
The petite body of Shangguan Lin, being held by him, struggled continuously, and she gritted her teeth, "Why are you picking me up? Put me down immediately! I don't want to have anything more to do with you!"
And to treat her with this kind of gentleness again, knowing full well she couldn't resist!
In the end, it's always herself who felt heartbroken!
Looking at Shangguan Lin causing a commotion in his arms, Xu Sheng said softly, "Alright, alright, let's go back to the Evil Spirit Sect first…"
As he spoke, he burst forth with a terrifying speed and dived towards the direction of the Evil Spirit Sect…
Since he had to keep Shangguan Lin in the Evil Spirit Sect, he must make sure she stayed with him at all times…
Shangguan Lin, in his arms, was stunned for a moment, and still with a cold voice turned her head to say, "Go back to the Evil Spirit Sect? Didn't you want me to leave? What's the point of going back now?"
Xu Sheng glanced at her with his dark eyes and replied, "Of course, it's for you to heal. However, for the next few days, don't you leave my side!"
Although Shangguan Lin's face was expressionless, a hint of joy rose in her heart…
Before long, Xu Sheng, holding Shangguan Lin, had already arrived outside of the Evil Spirit Sect…
The Elder of the Evil Spirit Sect in charge of guarding, upon seeing Xu Sheng holding the injured Shangguan Lin, his pupils suddenly constricted…
Xu Sheng and this woman had come back, which probably meant that the disciples he sent out were…
He suppressed the throbbing in his heart, pretending to be nonchalant, and said, "Elder Xu, weren't you supposed to send this disciple away? Why have you come back?"
Xu Sheng, seeing him like this, didn't expose him, but instead replied with a smile, "As you can see, she is injured. Naturally, I couldn't possibly let her leave on her own, right?"
Although Xu Sheng answered with a smile, his intuition told the Elder that things were not so simple!
Taking a deep breath, the Elder nodded, "Yes… yes, you are truly concerned for this disciple, Elder Xu. You both should enter quickly."
As he said this, he quickly opened the gate of the Evil Spirit Sect…
He didn't want to talk with Xu Sheng at all, not even for a second; the oppressive presence emanating from the former made him feel frightened every second…
Xu Sheng said indifferently, "Thanks, oh, and I just saw the bodies of some Evil Spirit Sect disciples over there. I'm afraid they weren't careful enough and got eaten by monster beasts…"
As he finished speaking, he carried Shangguan Lin in his arms into the Evil Spirit Sect…
The Elder, watching Xu Sheng's departure, secretly swallowed and thought, "Is Elder Xu blatantly warning me?"
It seems that this incident has caused Elder Xu to lose trust in us!
…
When Xu Sheng, holding Shangguan Lin, entered the sect and was walking toward the direction of the rooms…
The surrounding gathered Evil Spirit Sect disciples were exclaiming, "Isn't that Elder Xu and Shangguan Lin? How did they come in from outside the Evil Spirit Sect?
"Who knows! But Shangguan Lin is covered in wounds; it couldn't be Elder Xu..."
"I envy Elder Xu, to be able to make a woman like that submit!"
"Right, if it weren't for Shangguan Lin practicing the Yang Harvesting and Yin Nourishing Technique, those disciples with stronger cultivation levels would have treated her as a plaything long ago!"
And Shangguan Lin, who was in his arms, felt her ears redden upon hearing these explicit words...
She muttered softly, "Men are no good thing!"
These Xieling Sect Disciples are, and so is Xu Sheng!
Hearing Shangguan Lin muttering to herself, Xu Sheng asked curiously, "Shangguan, what did you just say?"
Shangguan Lin's beautiful eyes flickered, and she pouted, "Nothing... nothing."
Xu Sheng seemed to remember something and said with a hint of tenderness, "Shangguan, open your mouth!"
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Lin showed a skeptical look on her face, "What for?"
She had stopped fantasizing by now, and definitely didn't imagine Xu Sheng kissing her...
Xu Sheng raised an eyebrow, "Stop talking nonsense, open your mouth!"
Shangguan Lin "hmphed" coldly, but still opened her small mouth, and the next moment, a round and fragrant elixir shot into it...
After swallowing it, she thought to herself, "I knew it would be like this!!"
...
At this moment, in the palace of the Sect Master of the Evil Spirit Sect!
Aside from Xu Sheng, the Elders and the Sect Master were seated...
One of the Elders, full of confusion, said, "Sect Master, aren't we waiting for Elder Xu?"
Another Elder glanced at the former, "The Sect Master must have his reasons for this!"
Fear gripped them that the upcoming matter was targeted at Elder Xu, otherwise, why was he the only one not present?
The rest of the Elders kept quiet, their gaze fixed on the Sect Master of the Evil Spirit Sect!
The Sect Master of the Evil Spirit Sect, wearing a skull mask, said in an icy tone, "Actually, there's one more thing I forgot to tell you, after the sacrifice of the Xieling Sect Disciples, the number of people who can gain an increase in cultivation level is limited!"
Upon hearing this, the complexions of the other Elders turned grave...
Then, they all started asking with great confusion, "Sect Master, do you mean to say..."
"Could it be that Elder Xu was not called because of this matter?"
"So that's it, if Elder Xu were here, one of us wouldn't be able to enhance our cultivation level, right?"
They seemed to have understood the Sect Master's intention...
Compared to the old guards of the Evil Spirit Sect, this newly promoted Xu Sheng was an outsider, which was why this matter was revealed!
The eyes of the Sect Master of the Evil Spirit Sect turned colder as he spoke indifferently, "Correct! If Elder Xu were here, one of you would not be able to enhance your cultivation level! Therefore, when the time comes, I will take action to kill him!"
Most importantly, he did not trust Xu Sheng in his heart...
If the latter were to do something at the critical moment of the sacrifice, it would mean all their efforts thus far had been in vain!
Besides, although his cultivation level had reached the Mahayana Realm, he was completely unaware of "that place."
This was very rare!
