Qing Ling said helplessly, "Pavilion Master Qin's tone is harsh. The Sect Leader has yet to make a decision, but I'm afraid that Xueji will not be able to escape her doom."

I asked curiously, "But isn't Xueji the daughter of the Monarch of the snowy plains in Changbai Mountain? No matter what, she is still a princess of the Snow Demon Clan. If you kill her, the Xuanyuan Emperor won't come looking for trouble? "

Qing Ling said: "Xueji was expelled from the Snow Demon Clan many years ago, and now, no one cares about her life or death anymore. "If Duanmu Rong hadn't brought her back three years ago, she would have long since been caught by another Demon Slaying Master and used to concoct pills …"

I'm speechless... "It seems that saving Xueji will be extremely difficult."

Originally, I didn't have any relationship with Xueji, but I didn't have the heart to see Senior Martial Brother Duanmu so sad. Furthermore, having a lover who is about to part from me at the end of his life caused me to feel a little uncomfortable.

I asked, "Martial Uncle, can't you think of another way?"

Qing Ling said: "Now, if you want to save Xueji, you have to make Hall Master Qin of the Rehmannia Hall calm down. However, even if a person died, he wouldn't be able to revive. The only thing that could comfort Hall Master Qin right now was to find his daughter and disciple's souls, right? If he knew where their souls returned to, he would be able to calculate Qin Juan's next life. In any case, the lives of cultivators were long, so Hall Master Qin might be able to protect their daughter's soul until the next reincarnation … Perhaps after fulfilling his wish, he might be able to let off Xueji. "

When I heard this, my heart stirred. "Then how can I find their souls?"

Qing Ling, "The souls of the dead have disappeared. This is something that only Xue Ji, the murderer, knows."

"Then I'll go ask her!"

Qing Ling called out to me, "Wait! It's no use for you to go. She's already gone mad, isn't she? The last time you went there, she didn't even recognize Duanmu Rong's handwriting! "

"Then how can I bring her back to consciousness?"

"I'm afraid this is extremely difficult." Qing Ling frowned.

I begged, "Martial Uncle, can you think of a way for Senior Brother Duanmu to meet with Xue Ji? Right now, the person Xueji trusts the most should be Duanmu Rong. Perhaps, when they talk face to face, Senior Brother Duanmu can persuade Xueji. "

Qing Ling was extremely difficult because the Sect Leader had ordered them not to meet again … In the end, however, he gave in to my imploring gaze and came up with a compromise. "I can try to connect the Holy Tower to Yushui Hall through the water mirror and let them meet in the illusion. As for whether or not Duanmu Rong can persuade her, that will depend on their luck."

This is great!

I excitedly turned back into a fox and ran to tell Senior Brother Duanmu of this plan. His condition had not improved at all. The killing move of Hall Master Qin had seriously injured him. Now, the Hall Master of the Yushui Hall used the Spring Breeze Heart Technique to treat him every day. However, it was only prolonging his life.

Finally, in the dead of night, Qing Ling quietly circulated her skills and connected to the water mirror.

Duanmu Rong finally saw Xue Ji. Although it was just an illusion, one could tell that he was extremely happy.

His eyes were filled with deep emotions. I hid at Qing Ling's feet and looked through the water mirror with him. Looking at Duanmu Huanghun's expression, I didn't know why, but my heart felt a little heavy.

The mana of the water mirror lasted for a long time while Qing Ling was completely focused. Because the holy pagoda was different from other places, it was filled with evil and demonic qi. It had too many variables, so he had to carefully monitor it.

Until the magic power in the water mirror gradually dissipated, Duanmu Rong was still trying to persuade Xue Ji. However, what was disappointing was that Xue Ji was still unable to wake up from her berserk transformation … She did not recognize Duanmu Rong at all!

It seemed like Qing Ling was right. After the berserk transformation of the demonic creature, it was indeed impossible for her to return to its normal state.

After an incense stick of time, I heard Qing Ling sigh. She used a secret technique to transmit her voice to Duanmu Rong and said, "Duanmu, if you have anything to say, please say it quickly. I can't carry on for too long or the Sect Leader will find out."

Duanmu Rong nodded and looked deeply at Xue Ji, a helpless and bitter smile appearing in his eyes.

He muttered to himself, "Xueji, it's all my fault. I shouldn't have brought you back to the Evergreen Sect …"

Then, he suddenly looked in the direction of the water mirror and said to us, "I'm sorry, Martial Uncle Qing Ling! "Junior Apprentice Sister Wu, thank you …"

Eh?

Qing Ling and I were stunned at the same time. After which, Qing Ling's expression suddenly changed drastically as she cried out, "This is bad!" "Duanmu, don't …"

Before he could finish his sentence, the water mirror in front of us suddenly shattered! The illusionary image disappeared in an instant, and the surface of the water began to tremble violently!

Qing Ling threw herself at the basin, and it overturned. After staring blankly for a few seconds, he said to me, "Duanmu Qun gave up on his physical body and used a soul devouring technique to invade Xueji's body!"

"What?"

I was puzzled, but Qing Ling pulled me towards the Holy Tower. "Hurry, come with me to stop Duanmu Rong! Otherwise, even he will not be able to save her! "

On the way, Qing Ling hurriedly explained to me. It was only then did I realize that Duanmu Rong had used the soul-stealing technique to secretly invade Xue Ji's body while Qing Ling was still connected to the water mirror.

The Soul Search spell is a profound spell that can only be used by people with exceptionally high magic power. It can temporarily allow the caster to enter into the body of another person, sense their thoughts and heart, and pry into their thoughts and memories … Of course, this kind of spell was very dangerous, because if the opponent's spiritual force was strong enough, the intruder would be trapped inside the opponent's spiritual force. If the spirit was trapped, the physical body would lose its soul and stop breathing. He died!

At this moment, Duanmu Rong's body was very weak while Xue Ji was in a state of madness. There was no need to compare the strength of both their mental energies. Therefore, Qing Ling was so worried at this moment … What Duanmu Rong did was too risky. There was a high chance that he would be trapped inside Xueji's body!

By the time we arrived at the Holy Tower, Duanmu Rong was trapped inside Xueji's body.

He was one with her, he could feel her madness, he could feel her despair, he could feel her pain.

He read out her memory and told us the answer.

The whole matter of Xueji was revealed bit by bit …

It turned out that in the very beginning, Xueji was the princess of the Snow Demon Clan, but she was only a princess who wasn't very favored … Her birth mother was a lowly palace maid. She was the daughter of the Xuanyuan Emperor, who had spent one night in debauchery. The Snow Demon race paid great attention to the purity of one's bloodline, because the more pure a bloodline was, the more powerful one's magic power would be. And commoners like Xueji's mother, originally didn't have the qualifications to bear children for the imperial family. However, since Xueji had already been born, the Xuanyuan Emperor could only reluctantly settle the two of them. However, he had never treated this daughter of his with much respect. Xueji and her daughter were dependent on each other from then on, and although they were greatly oppressed in the palace, the little girl was still growing up. Later, her mother angered a concubine for a small matter and was sentenced to death by the emperor. Xueji then entered the path of evil overnight. Although her bloodline was impure and her demonic powers were not that profound, she had possessed an extraordinary amount of magic due to her enchantment; she had killed the concubine who had killed her mother, and she had even taken revenge on the person who had bullied her in the past. The emperor of the snowy plains was furious. He expelled her from the imperial palace and even invited a Demon Slaying Master to kill her. As it so happened, Duanmu Rong went to Mount Changbai to gain experience and met Xueji. Thus, he brought her back to Mount Changqing. In order to help her change her mind as soon as possible, to get rid of the evil element in her body, he made her cultivate in the holy pagoda …

At first, Duanmu thought that Xue Ji would be training in the holy pagoda seriously, until the day he left the pagoda.

However, Xueji had left the tower on her own accord this time, and had even killed Qin Juan and her senior brother … Why was all this happening?

As Duanmu Huanghun delved deeper into Xueji's consciousness, Xueji's memories were deciphered one by one. Qing Ling and I also found out the reason behind this.

It turned out that all of this originated from Qin Juan.

Recently, Qin Juan had cultivated an evil art called the Hundred Demons Resisting Body. This evil art made use of the demonic nature of the fiendish demons to increase one's own strength; it could allow a person to quickly increase their mana and shorten the time needed to cultivate. However, one would need to borrow the strength of the fiendish demons to accomplish this. Therefore, Qin Juan took the opportunity to secretly find Xueji while she was on guard of the Tower, and made a contract with her … She let Xue Ji use his demonic nature to help her cultivate, while she helped Xue Ji escape to find Duanmu Rong.
