Chapter 356: Secret Talk

Hearing that Ming Xiu’s cultivation base had already reached Sword Saint, Lou Mu Yan revealed a rare expression of surprise.

“Your cultivation speed is so Heaven-defying.”

Ming Xiu chuckled, “It’s alright.”

Lou Mu Yan rolled her eyes. Others secretly called her little abnormal monster, but in fact, Ming Xiu was a big abnormal monster.

“Actually, when we met before, my cultivation base was sealed with a Secret Skill, so you don’t have to curse me in your heart.” Ming Xiu took Lou Mu Yan’s hand, walked to the chair and sat down, holding her on his lap.

Lou Mu Yan’s brows and eyes curled with her smile. She raised her eyes and asked: “How did you know that I’m cursing you for being an abnormal monster inwardly?”

“A guess.” The way this woman rolled her eyes just now was so cute.

“By the way, you said before that you’d tell me a secret when we met again. Is it convenient to say it now?” Lou Mu Yan knew that although Ming Xiu had sealed his own cultivation base, but his speed of cultivation definitely wouldn’t be slower than hers.

She was now more interested in the secret he had spoken of.

“In addition to Sword Cultivators on this interface, there are also the Devil Race, Sea Race and Demon Race. The predecessors of the Devil Race are actually human Sword Masters, but the interface they are on is relatively special, so they entered by cultivating the Path of the Ghost and Path of the Devil.

“But after some interfaces are corroded by the True Evil Force and the Dark Evil Force, resources such as Spiritual Items would gradually decrease, so they would invade and occupy other interfaces to snatch their cultivation resources.” Ming Xu’s voice flowed out, very melodious.

Lou Mu Yan furrowed her brows slightly, “You mean that our interface is a target for the Devil Race from another interface?”

“Yes. According to the information I collected over the past few years, the Devil Race may invade our interface and plunder resources.” Ming Xiu nodded.

“Then it has something to do with the Heavenly Secret Palace and the Eight Extremes Sect?” Lou Mu Yan didn’t forget Ming Xiu’s hint in the cultivation space.

“The place where the Heavenly Secret Palace and the Eight Extremes Sect were built on both have an Evil Pit, but they were all suppressed and sealed by an Array. But I suspect that there are Devil Race spies in the superiors of the Six Major Sects, but they’re hidden very deeply.” Ming Xiu said solemnly.

“So that’s the case. The founders of the Heavenly Secret Palace and the Eight Extremes Sect sure are bold. Aren’t they afraid that the Dark Evil Force that overflows from the Evil Pit will corrode the pupils of the Sect?” Lou Mu Yan narrowed her eyes. No wonder the Devil Cultivator in her pendant wanted her to go to the Eight Extremes Sect. So he wanted to use the Evil Pit to cultivate.

“Both Sects have the strongest Array Masters on this Continent. After the joint seal, the Dark Evil Force won’t overflow, and its benefits outweigh the dangers, so they naturally will choose the benefits.

“Although the Evil Pit is dangerous, but the resources nearby are bound to be extremely rich. It’s understandable for the two Sects to occupy it and establish a Sect. Moreover, sealing the Evil Pit in the Sect can also prevent Devil Cultivators on this interface from expanding their power and improving their cultivation.” Ming Xiu explained.

“Isn’t there a legendary True Evil Land under the cliff of the Falling Ghost River? Then why aren’t the Six Major Sects sealing that?” Lou Mu Yan asked in confusion.

Ming Xiu placed his head on her shoulder and inhaled the delicate fragrance on her, “The location is very mysterious. There will often be a Dark Evil Vortex, then a Space Rift will appear. The experts of the Six Major Sects also tried to seal it, but they didn’t know where to begin, and also lost many experts, so they could only give up after that.

“With the experts of the Six Major Sects being unable to enter and seal it, the Devil Cultivators and Ghost Cultivators naturally couldn’t go too deep either and use its power to cultivate, so the Six Major Sects just kept their pupils stationed on the periphery and gave up the idea of sealing it.”

“With Dark Evil Vortexes and Space Rifts appearing, then the bottom of the cliff with True Evil may be the spatial weak point of this interface.” Lou Mu Yan’s brows knitted deeper.

If this interface was really invaded by the Devil Race, then it could be troublesome. She had to speed up the growth of the Lou Clan. At the very least, they must have the ability to protect themselves.

Surprise flashed across Ming Xiu’s deep black eyes. His woman’s insights and intelligence really shouldn’t be underestimated.

“Yes. So if the Devil Race wants to invade our interface, then the cliff is likely to be the place where the interface’s barriers are broken.”

“There’s nothing you can do to stop it?” Lou Mu Yan asked, turning her head sideways.

Ming Xiu kissed her cheek, “None. I’ve been to that place. There are Dark Evil Vortexes and Space Rifts everywhere, and there’s even Space Turbulence. It can’t be penetrated at all.

“But even if the Devil Race really wanted to invade, it would cost a lot. If they can enter this interface through that place, then we can only fight.”

“True. We should just better guard against the future.” Lou Mu Yan thought, then asked: “Are you afraid that the two Evil Pits of the Heavenly Secret Palace and the Eight Extremes Sect are also weak points of space, so you entered the Sect to investigate?”

“Mm. And investigate the hidden spies of the Devil Race at the same time.” Ming Xiu continued: “A thousand years ago, the Devil Race invaded this interface, but they were finally expelled by the powerhouses of this Continent at a heavy price, but it also left a lot of Devil Cultivators here to lurk.”

“Do the superiors of the Six Major Sects know about these things?” Lou Mu Yan asked.

“They definitely know that the Devil Race wants to invade Tian’ling Continent. Sealing the two Evil Pits is also to prevent the Devil Race exploiting the loopholes. We only need to act according to opportunity. When the sky falls, there are still those high-level powerhouses to hold it up.” Ming Xiu said.

Lou Mu Yan nodded. With her current cultivation base and strength, she indeed couldn’t intervene in the affairs of the Devil Race. They would just ‘confront soldiers with generals and stem water with earth’.

“Do I need to do anything in the Eight Extremes Sect?”

“You don’t have to do anything. Just pay attention to whether there are any suspicious Devil Race people or not, but don’t act rashly either. Pass the news to me and I’ll handle it.” Ming Xiu wouldn’t be able to bear the woman he liked to take risks.

“Sure!” Lou Mu Yan didn’t want to deeply inquire about Ming Xiu’s identity. She knew that there must be a reason for him to be so concerned about the Devil Race.

Ming Xiu hugged Lou Mu Yan tightly, then said after a while: “Mercenaries and Wandering Cultivators are disappearing at the Falling Ghost River recently. Be careful when doing missions and pay attention to safety.”

Then he placed a golden crystal in her hand, “If we act separately, if you’re in danger, crush this crystal and I’ll arrive immediately.”

“Alright!” Lou Mu Yan held the crystal, which still contained Ming Xiu’s warmth.

In order to investigate the disappearances of the pupils of the Six Major Sects, the pupils of the several Sects would eventually have to split up to find clues.

“Yan, aren’t you curious about my true identity?” Ming Xiu asked in a low, sexy voice.

The corner of Lou Mu Yan’s lips twitched—what the hell was ‘Yan’? But it appeared that it was actually the first time someone called her ‘Yan’.

“Only I can call you ‘Yan’ in the future.” Ming Xiu naturally didn’t miss Lou Mu Yan’s expression, and he said domineeringly with a chuckle.

“As you like.” Lou Mu Yan looked at Ming Xiu with amusement.

Hearing him call her like this, she didn’t feel a sense of disagreement. Instead, because his sexy voice, that called out her name, was filled with penetrating emotional power, it made her heart tingle, unable to resist.

“You haven’t answered my question yet.” Ming Xiu’s slender fingers wrapped around a strand of Lou Mu Yan’s black hair to play with.

“I’m very curious, but I don’t want to know right now. I guess you’ll uncover it slowly.” Lou Mu Yan raised her eyes and looked at Ming Xiu seriously.

It was boring to know right now. Wasn’t it more interesting to learn it little by little herself?

“As expected of the woman I like.” Ming Xiu laughed happily.

Lou Mu Yan was like a Secret Classic that attracted him to read it page by page. Each page opened would make him fall in love with her even more. He didn’t want to turn to the last page to see the finale.

So he also hoped that he would become Lou Mu Yan’s Secret Classic, letting her read page by page to understand him.

This was their way of penetrating each other’s hearts. They were actually the same kind of people.
