Chapter 0767: 0767
“Don’t you have a younger sister named Ning Ruolan? How come she’s not with you?” The red-robed woman asked something unrelated .

“Ruolan is in secluded cultivation right now . But it’s none of your business . Just remember not to ask unnecessary questions . Otherwise, I’ll not let you follow me . ”
“Then, can I be your younger sister, Ning Ruolan?” The red-robed woman asked again . But when she saw Ning Cheng’s unhappy expression, she quickly spoke up . “I don’t like the name, Shiluo Xin . I just didn’t want to forget that I came from Lost Mountains . But since I’m leaving this place, I feel like I should change to a nice-sounding name . If you think it’s not good to take your younger sister Ning Ruolan’s name, then let me be your big sister, um, also named Ning Ruolan . ”
Ning Cheng felt that she must have damaged her brain when crossing through positional planes’ interfaces . So, he patiently replied, “I don’t need a big sister, and it’s not appropriate for you to become my big sister either . If you want to change your name, then let it be Ning Ruo… . Ning Ruoqing . It’s similar to my sister’s name . ”
The red-robed woman didn’t care about it initially . But halfway through, she grabbed Ning Cheng’s hand in surprise and exclaimed, “Good, I’m your younger sister Ning Ruoqing from today . ”
“Okay, now that you have a good name, we need to go to a place before leaving . ” Before the red-robed woman accepted the name Ning Ruoqing, Ning Cheng only wanted to take her out of Graceful Star Mainland out of sympathy and some worry .
But after this red-robed woman changed her name to Ning Ruoqing and expressed her desire to become Ning Cheng’s sister, Ning Cheng started to feel a little more connected to her . He felt as if his feelings towards this red-robed woman had changed entirely . This feeling, even Ning Cheng found it very strange . It was as if this red-robed woman was truly his younger sister Ning Ruoqing and that Ning Cheng truly was Ning Ruoqing’s elder brother .
Ning Cheng didn’t know it yet but letting this red-robed woman call him ‘big brother’ was the most arrogant and ignorant thing he had ever done in his life .
The Hidden Mist Cemetery looked the same as before, still covered in a cold and gloomy mist . However, unlike then, Ning Cheng’s spiritual consciousness could now directly sweep through everything within this Hidden Mist Cemetery . No matter the spiritual consciousness-hindering array formations, restrictions, or other obstructions within Hidden Mist Cemetery, nothing could hide under his gaze .
“What are you looking for in this place?” Ning Ruoqing kept following Ning Cheng and copied everything Ning Cheng did . Now that she saw Ning Cheng suddenly stopping, she asked a question out of curiosity .
Ning Cheng gave a reply . “Right, when I returned to this place, I couldn’t help but think that there is something strange about this place . ”
Ning Cheng, at his current level, could easily tear apart any Isolation Array Formations and restrictions covering the Forsaken Land with just a wave of his hand . But he suddenly had a strange thought . Why did Graceful Star Mainland have so many fallen powerhouses? In all respects, it was just a low-level interface .
Just beside him was Ning Ruoqing, who wanted to be his younger sister . Then there was Cang Wei, who he rescued from the Blood River Mountains and Taishu Shi’s ancestor Taishu Yi . Plus, there was also that soul-devouring old fogey .

Not only those fallen experts but this mainland also contained many strange places, like the Forsaken Grounds, Angry Axe Valley, and quite a few Immortal Mansions . He had even obtained the Celestial River Flame from one of these Immortal Mansions’ entrances . Thinking of Immortal Mansions, Ning Cheng also recalled that woman with white hair[1] .
Ning Cheng had found no trace of that white-haired woman or even any traces of that old fogey . But regardless, both the old fogey and that woman had some tricks up their sleeves .
Fortunately, or unfortunately, the old fogey confused him with someone else and got scared . So, Ning Cheng believed that this old fogey had already gone into hiding, which was why he couldn’t find any trace of it . As for the woman, he didn’t have any idea about her .
“What is it?” Ruoqing casually asked .
Ning Cheng thought for a while before looking at Ning Ruoqing and asking a question . “Do you have any recollection of what happened before you came to this place?”
Hearing Ning Cheng’s words, Ning Ruoqing started pulling at her hair again .
Ning Cheng quickly replied, “Forget it . Don’t think about those things . In the future, you can slowly uncover it step by step . ”
Finished speaking, Ning Cheng lifted his hand and tore away all the isolation restrictions and array formation in front of him . The Forsaken Land’s desert then suddenly appeared within the range of Ning Cheng’s spiritual consciousness . Seeing that, Ning Cheng took one step forward and shouted, “Don’t think about it . Just come in quickly . ”
Ning Ruoqing truly stopped thinking about it and followed Ning Cheng into the Forsaken Land .
In the beginning, anyone entering this place would find their cultivation sealed . But when Ning Cheng came again, he couldn’t feel anything at all . Even Ning Ruoqing, who came in behind him, felt no pressure . It once again proved that her cultivation exceeded Ning Cheng .
“There is an eye at the bottom of the lake . But I don’t like that dagger . ” Standing next to the white-robed ghost lake, Ning Ruoqing frowned .
Ning Cheng’s spiritual consciousness fell on that eye and once again felt the same aura coming from it like that from the sealed giant . However, he also felt quite lucky with his timing . A different aura had already invaded this eye . If he had not come here, someone would have already refined this eye in a few more years .
Ning Cheng couldn’t see the dagger initially, but now he could feel the power coursing through this dagger .

Ning Cheng’s spiritual consciousness swept out and quickly reached Princess Mann in Yaren City . As for the original City Master Yi Zhonghuan, he had long since disappeared, even his son had vanished . The great hall of the city master’s mansion now only had Princess Mann, with two maids standing near the entrance .
The two maids had a deathly look on their faces, looking as if their hearts had already died .
On the outermost edge of the City Master Mansion stood rows of expressionless bodyguards, as well as some more maidservants with similarly pale faces .
The entire Yaren City felt as if it had lost its original life force with a deathly aura filling up each corner . Even a living person looked like a walking corpse .
As for Princess Mann, her face had turned entirely blue, and the cyan crystal point on her forehead had significantly expanded, looking like a smoky third eye .
Ning Cheng gave a cold snort and raised his hand . This woman hadn’t changed at all . Besides, just like he guessed back then, someone else occupied Princess Mann’s empty shell . Using the protection offered by the City Master’s Mansion in Yaren City, she wanted to refine the eye at the bottom of the lake slowly .
Princess Mann, sitting in the City Master’s Mansion, suddenly stood up and gave a cold snort . The two maids standing at the door, on hearing the cold snort, quickly walked inside .
“Ready the Thousand Chestnut Flowers, I want to take a bath . ” Princess Mann spoke without any expression .
The slightly taller maid replied with a very respectful voice . “Replying to the lord, the original Thousand Chestnut Flowers are all used up, and the collection of the new batch of Thousand Chestnut Flowers is still underway . The servants are collecting them as we speak… . ”
“Slap… . ” The maid hadn’t finished speaking yet when Princess Mann slapped her face . The slightly taller maid opened her mouth and spat out a few teeth and mouthful of blood .
However, Princess Mann didn’t stop there; she grabbed the maid’s collar and raised her in the air . With a ripping sound, she then tore off the maid’s robes, revealing her white skin .
When Princess Mann saw the white skin, a trace of strange light flashed across her eyes, and she stuck her tongue out to lick her lips . However, she didn’t take the next step, but glanced at the other trembling maid and spoke the same words . “Ready the Thousand Chestnut Flowers, I want to take a bath . ”

The other maid quickly bowed her head and said, “Replying to the lord, I’ll get it ready . I’ll get it ready right away… . ”
She had already steeled herself . As long as this King Mann agreed, she would go out and commit suicide . Staying by this woman’s side would eventually result in her death anyway, so better to die on one’s own accord .
“Slap, rip… . ” However, another slap resounded in the hall along with ripping noises as Princess Mann tore off the other maid’s clothes .
“Bitch, daring to lie to this King . ” Princess Mann’s eyes started to glow red, looking more and more like a demon .
At this time, a sarcastic voice came over . “Princess Mann, I haven’t seen you for quite some time, and you’ve already become a king . Not only did you become a king, but you also wield quite a lot of power now . ”
This abrupt voice not only surprised Princess Mann, but even the two maids also looked around in horror . They couldn’t see anyone around them, so where did this voice originate?
“Who is it?” Princess Mann asked with calm composure . However, her voice trembled slightly . She had become used to controlling the life and death of everyone around her, so she never expected such a thing to ever happen to her .
“You forgot me this quickly, huh . Back when I saw you, you made me open six holes with three knives… . ”
Upon hearing this voice once again, Princess Mann’s face grew pale . She immediately understood who spoke those words . After appearing in Yaren City, she had suffered only one loss, to Ning Cheng . She did not cultivate a complete cultivation method, so she understood that she wasn’t Ning Cheng’s opponent .
“I have nothing to do with you… . ”
Princess Mann only said a few words when Ning Cheng interrupted her . “Wrong, you not only have a grudge against me, but you’re also trying to refine my friend’s eye……”
When Princess Mann heard Ning Cheng talking about his ‘friend’s’ eye, she became even more confused . Without waiting for her to reply, an invisible hand grabbed her neck and took her away from the City Master’s Mansion .
The two maidservants, who Princess Mann had slapped around and ripped their robes, fell to the ground . Everything they saw just now had thoroughly shocked them .
It took a while for the tall maid to react . She eventually managed to stand up and said, “Yue Min, let’s leave immediately . Let’s take advantage of this opportunity to escape . ”
The other female cultivator wiped the blood off from the corner of her mouth, pursed her lips and spoke up . “Sister Lu, with her means, if she doesn’t die, escaping to any place wouldn’t be of any use . But I’ve heard of this Ning Cheng . He had once taught Princess Mann a lesson in the past . Since this Ning Cheng took away this woman, I bet that she most likely will not return . ”
“You want to bet?” The maid called Sister Lu asked in exasperation .
“Let’s replace that woman and take control of this Yaren City . ” The maid named Yue Min, stared at the tall maid and spoke word-for-word .
The tall maid hadn’t spoken yet when they heard Ning Cheng’s voice again . “Princess Mann won’t be returning, so you can take control of Yaren City . But keep in mind how you obtained that power . If you also act the same as Princess Man, sooner or later you’ll also face the same retribution . ”
When the two maids heard Ning Cheng’s words, they quickly fell to their knees and agreed .
Ning Cheng naturally didn’t care how these two women would take control of this Yaren City . He also didn’t care as to what they did with it . Ning Cheng only left behind those words to help the innocent civilians currently residing within the city . As to whether the two maids would listen to him, he wouldn’t stay here to monitor it anyway .
[1] It refers to the woman who had taken Ning Cheng to the immortal mansion under the scorching river, back when Ning Cheng hadn’t yet come out of the Hua Continent .
