Marry the Demon Sect Girl with No Bride Price

Chapter 524 - 184: Nightmare Returns

Sun and Moon Mountain’s western peak.

Joyful Union Sect’s Sect Leader’s cave residence.

"Why hasn’t Elder Yue returned? Elder Lin, go take a look."

Yin Zhen sat on a chair made from Flying Wing Tiger hide, propping his chin with one hand and holding a wine cup in the other.

He wasn’t too worried about the situation below; the Joyful Union Array was something he painstakingly set up, consuming countless Joyful Jade Dragon Pills and Celestial Awakening Locking Essence Pills.

Unless the opponent sends several Nascent Soul Realm experts simultaneously to suppress the pill’s effects with overwhelming cultivation.

Otherwise, anyone who comes will be trapped in the array, at his mercy.

Yin Zhen was anxious because he couldn’t wait to enjoy these fairies that delivered themselves along with Xu Caihe and Zhou Ling’Er in the prison.

These fairies from Zhenyang Sect will aid my cultivation, and this time I will break through to the Nascent Soul Realm!

As for Zhenyang Sect coming for revenge afterward?

That’s impossible!

No one from those who came, male or female, will escape.

I’ll kill them all to silence, and no one will know so many disciples died in Sun and Moon Mountain.

And that Phoenix Maiden, who has always looked down on me and bullied me.

When I reach the Nascent Soul Realm, I’ll crush Celestial Phoenix Mountain, and make you kneel at my feet, to be ravaged!

Thinking of Phoenix Maiden’s extremely full figure, Yin Zhen felt a heat in his dantian and couldn’t wait any longer.

"Sect Leader, I’ll go urge Elder Yue."

Complying with Yin Zhen’s command, Elder Lin agreed and headed out. The other elders chuckled:

"Could it be that old Yue couldn’t resist the temptation of those fairies’ beauty and enjoyed himself first?"

"The Sect Leader hasn’t touched them yet, would he dare?"

"Haha, Sect Leader, if Elder Yue truly dares to steal your prey, I’ll be the first to castrate him!"

"Don’t say that, I watched from the mountain, and there are quite a few among them who are as beautiful as a celestial, making me nearly drool!"

"Sect Leader, after you enjoy, save us some leftovers!"

Yin Zhen laughed heartily and pointed towards the direction of the dungeon: "That alluring girl inside is yours!"

He was referring to Zhou Ling’Er, who, in terms of looks, was slightly inferior to Xu Caihe, but her coquettish demeanor was quite enticing.

Hearing Yin Zhen’s generosity, the group was overjoyed: "Thank you, Sect Leader!"

They were waiting for Elder Yue to capture everyone so they could dig in.

The cave was filled with joyful anticipation when suddenly, a scream echoed from outside.

It was the very Elder Lin who had just gone out.

Everyone froze, and Yin Zhen’s expression changed slightly: "What’s going on? Elder Lin, Elder Lin?!"

He called out a few times, but there was no further response from outside.

The group looked at each other in confusion; there were over a hundred disciples outside, along with Elder Lin’s Golden Core Realm cultivation. Even if an enemy attacked, there would be sounds of a fight.

How could there be just one scream, and then nothing else?

Yin Zhen had a vague ominous premonition and pointed to someone: "Elder Luo, go see!"

"... Yes."

Elder Luo wasn’t willing but under Yin Zhen’s glare, had to summon over a dozen magical artifacts, gathering all his spiritual power, and cautiously exited.

A moment later, he left the cave, and his voice disappeared too.

"Elder Luo? Elder Luo!"

Yin Zhen called twice, yet there was no response from outside.

"What... what is this?"

The remaining people were getting goosebumps; could it be that an Ancient Demonic Beast that devours humans was lurking outside, eating whoever exits?

A radiant gourd appeared in Yin Zhen’s hand; it contained various poisons he had carefully collected. In the face of a strong enemy, the poisonous substances would spray out, ensuring death to those who touch them!

This was Yin Zhen’s ultimate life-saving magical treasure.

"You, up front!"

He pointed to the remaining dozen people, who were at the Foundation Establishment Peak or the Golden Core Realm and had their own secret techniques. Should they join forces, even a great Nascent Soul cultivator wouldn’t dare provoke them lightly.

Upon hearing Yin Zhen’s command, these ten or so people grimaced, summoning their own magical treasures as they slowly moved towards the cave entrance.

Step, step, step.

Suddenly, footsteps sounded from outside the cave.

Everyone stopped instantly, spiritual energy surged, magical treasures hovered mid-air, all aimed at the cave door.

Step, step, the footsteps were unhurried, seemingly toying with them, each step striking directly at their hearts.

"Who are you, Daoist? Why not show yourself? Sneaking around is no behavior of a cultivator!"

Yin Zhen swallowed, couldn’t help but shout outside.

"Do you even deserve to be called cultivators?"

There was finally a response outside, a crisp female voice.

The voice sounded ethereal and distant, like an oriole in a secluded valley, akin to pearls dropping onto a jade plate, incredibly pleasing to the ear.

Yet, within that exquisite voice lay overwhelming killing intent, causing shivers and involuntary trembling.

"Damn, it’s a woman!"

"If you dare, come in!"

Upon hearing it was a woman, the elders sighed in slight relief and started cursing outside.

Yin Zhen’s face turned deathly pale!

He had heard this voice once and dared not forget it.

There was a time he passed by Celestial Fall Mountain and witnessed two Celestial Fall Sect elders killing a Cyan Lotus Sect disciple.

Then that woman appeared.

He was watching from afar at that time but was still scared out of his wits.

Later, that terrifying figure frequently appeared in his nightmares, almost becoming his heart demon.

Fortunately, Cyan Lotus Sect was eventually annihilated, and the female demon was also declared dead.

Yin Zhen finally freed himself from the nightmares.

Yet now, the nightmare reappeared.

With the woman’s voice, a tall, striking figure appeared before them.

"What a stunning woman!"

"It’s the first time I’ve seen such a beautiful woman in my life!"

"Brothers, let’s capture her together and present her to the Sect Leader!"

"Sect Leader, let’s join forces and take this woman... Sect Leader?"

Thud!

As the elders spoke, they heard a thud and turned to see the magical gourd in Yin Zhen’s hand falling to the ground.

The Sect Leader of Joyful Union Sect looked ashen, eyes dazed, muttering:

"It’s over."

In the dungeon.

Xu Caihe and Zhou Ling’Er were trying to break free from their bindings, but with their cultivation suppressed, it was futile.

"Ling’Er, it’s been so long, and Senior Brother He still hasn’t come. Did something happen?"

Xu Caihe leaned weakly against a stone pillar, her face full of worry.

Zhou Ling’Er fell silent, exchanging a glance with her, seeing despair in each other’s eyes.

"Ah!!"

"No, no!"

"Ah!!"

Suddenly, harsh screams pierced the air outside, as if humans had descended into the Eighteen Layers of Hell, suffering endless torment.

Xu Caihe and Zhou Ling’Er exchanged looks, "What’s happening outside?"

Moments later, a series of crisp footsteps echoed, halting at the dungeon entrance.

"Who... who’s there?"

They were startled and uncertain, then two strands of spiritual energy flew in, effortlessly cutting through the Immortal-Binding Rope holding them.

Xu Caihe and Zhou Ling’Er froze momentarily before realizing, quickly rushing out of the dungeon.

Yet outside was empty.

They followed the passage upwards, reaching the Sect Leader’s cave residence.

In the next moment, they stood frozen, dumbstruck, gazing into the cave.

"This, this is..."
