I'm About to Die, Can't I Buff My Junior Sister's Strength?

21: It seems like this woman has underestimated me.Kill Old Ancestor Cang Lang?

Good heavens, isn’t this the same as his own goal?

After he verified his strength in the Huang Family, his thinking changed. Why wait for Old Ancestor Cang Lang to be fully prepared to attack Yun Province?

Couldn’t he take the initiative and catch him off guard?

There was no need to keep waiting; he always felt annoyed seeing that his luck was running out.

What’s more, that was the Gray Wolf’s lair; there might be many Spirit Stones and secret treasures there.

”However, there’s something I must tell Young Master Shen in advance. The current You Mountain doesn’t just have Old Ancestor Cang Lang as a Great Demon; moreover, they are not Golden Core, but rather Half-step Nascent Soul,” Xia Youyue said coolly.

She had some good feelings for Shen Nian, both because of his actions and because he was from the Heavenly Sword Sect, so she didn’t want to deceive him.

Although she knew his Physical Body might be exceptionally strong, very likely already at the Early Stage of a Hunyuan Grandmaster.

But she knew that there were three Half-step Nascent Soul Great Demons in You Mountain now, and their physical might was probably no less than that of a Hunyuan Grandmaster.

This was also why she had been biding her time; after all, she had more important matters in Yun Province and had to pass through You Mountain... Now, the Xuan Guang Cave might send people at any time, and the Huang Family Old Ancestor was already on his way... This matter definitely had to be resolved as quickly as possible, otherwise, if the Three Sects found out, she probably wouldn’t even have the qualification to enter.

If Shen Nian didn’t agree, she could understand; it would just mean venturing through You Mountain alone, something she had grown accustomed to over the years.

Shen Nian showed a trace of surprise.

”It seems the Demon Suppression Division isn’t entirely useless; their intelligence gathering is quite good...”

Seeing Shen Nian’s expression, Xia Youyue thought for a moment and then said, ”I know this matter is dangerous. If this demon-slaying mission succeeds, the reward will surely satisfy Young Master Shen. Moreover, all Young Master Shen needs to do is help me distract the opponents.”

She had a way to deal with the three Nascent Soul Great Demons, but it would require some time. If Shen Nian went, her chances of victory would be much greater.

Hearing this, Shen Nian smiled slightly.

It seems he was being underestimated by this woman.

So, she was hiding her strength last night?

That’s right, with that Golden Finger from the immortal realm, if she used it, how could those few from Xuan Guang Cave possibly withstand it?

If that fated female protagonist didn’t have some means to kill enemies beyond her cultivation level, would she even dare call herself the protagonist?

The next second.

Shen Nian spoke, not answering the question, ”Even if Xuan Guang Cave doesn’t act, Great Xia still has Hunyuan Grandmasters, right? Just inviting one could easily resolve the Yun Province crisis. Why not ask for help?”

He had stayed on Ninth Mountain for many years, only descending once or twice in between, returning the same day. Ninth Mountain was sparsely populated, so he actually didn’t know much about Great Xia’s situation.

Listening to her tone, if a Hunyuan Grandmaster could handle a few Great Demons, then why not find their own people?

”Difficult!” Xia Youyue shook her head and explained, ”My Great Xia has been fighting the Yao Race for many years. The weaknesses, specialties, and locations of almost every Hunyuan Grandmaster have been recorded by them. If one leaves, the Heavenly Demon Cave will know and then send out even more powerful Demon Emperors...”

”By then, the battle in Yun Province will likely become even more complicated...”

As she spoke, Xia Youyue couldn’t help but clench her fist, a strong killing intent in her heart.

If the Yao Race were just a bunch of simpletons with great strength, it would be one thing, but they are terrifyingly intelligent, with even great wisdom comparable to the Human Race’s Old Man Tianji... it was that person who calculated her innate supreme bone, causing a Demon Emperor to act and dig out her supreme bone, and her most beloved younger brother died that day.

And now... Xia Youyue’s brows furrowed with a hint of coldness as she said, ”In addition, in the past two years, the demon plague in the Nine Provinces has been violently turbulent, and even Demon Kings with Vicious Beast Bloodline from the Heavenly Demon Cave have appeared. The Hunyuan Grandmasters in the nearest Lei and Feng Provinces have suffered heavy losses...”

Lei Province, Feng Province, and Yun Province, these three provinces are jointly guarded by Xuan Guang Cave. These bastards don’t treat Great Xia’s Grandmasters as people at all, using them entirely as cannon fodder, and then they reap the benefits.

The Great Xia Imperial Family has known about this for a long time, but there’s nothing they can do, as they rely on them to resist the Demon Emperors.

If Great Xia also had powerhouses who had ascended to White Jade Capital... how could they suffer such oppression!

Thinking of this, Xia Youyue couldn’t help but recall the familiar figures who died on the battlefield, and a trace of sadness appeared in her cold eyes.

If only her Cultivation speed could be faster.

Then Great Xia wouldn’t be so oppressed by others... After hearing the explanation, Shen Nian fell into thought.

He wasn’t unaware of the Heavenly Demon Cave; it was the true base camp of the Yao Race, occupying the southern desert of this continent, with Demon Emperors and Demon Sovereigns in charge, and their numbers were several times that of the Human Race.

If those Demon Sovereigns came, the Human Race’s current strength simply couldn’t stop them.

But when he was a child, he heard the Old Ancestor say that for some reason, they were temporarily unwilling to come... This was limited to Demon Sovereigns; as for the Demon Emperors and Demon Kings under them, a few would occasionally appear, especially those Demon Emperors with even stronger Vicious Beast Bloodline. One-on-one, they were invincible to anyone not of the Human Race at the same realm.

”Xuan Guang Cave...” Shen Nian murmured in his heart. He had never had a good impression of this force, even feeling some disgust.

”Then let’s discuss the reward.”

Killing the Great Demon Cang Lang was a must, and now there was a little helper, plus a reward.

It was free money, so why not take it?

Xia Youyue nodded and said, ”If Young Master Shen can help Yun Province’s Demon Suppression Division resolve the Gray Wolf demon plague this time, Young Master Shen can take as many Spirit Stones and Medicinal Pills as he wishes from the Yun Province Demon Suppression Division. I can even make an exception and contend for the Dragon Transformation Pool of the Great Xia Martial Temple for Young Master Shen...”

Is it that Dragon Transformation Pool, exclusive to the Great Xia Martial Temple?

Isn’t that something only people from the Great Xia Demon Suppression Division are qualified for?

Shen Nian immediately thought of her identity. As the Great Xia Elder Princess, it was normal for her to have such authority.

At this, Shen Nian indeed became interested. The Dragon Transformation Pool was for Body Tempering, and perhaps his Chaos Indestructible Body Refining Method could be further improved.

This deal was a profit!

Shen Nian slowly stood up and said softly, ”Then let’s go.”

”Now?” Xia Youyue was stunned for a moment. Although the matter was urgent, they should at least discuss it.

”Otherwise? As you said, those Yao Race aren’t fools. After the Sparrow Demon was killed by me, they must have made new arrangements. It’s better to go early and catch them off guard...”

Shen Nian spoke calmly, with his hands behind his back.

Hearing this, Xia Youyue found it very reasonable and also stood up.

Just as the two set off from Yun Province.

Outside Yun Province, You Mountain.

”Awoo~!”

A majestic building stood tall, Demonic Qi soaring into the sky. Thousands of wolf demons knelt on the ground in all directions, looking reverently at the front.

At this moment, deep within this palace.

Nine ferocious Great Demons stood on either side of the main hall, exuding tyrannical demonic power, no weaker than Golden Core.

And on the throne was an old man dressed in coarse linen clothes, but his neck had a wolf’s head, with white beard and white eyebrows. He was precisely Old Ancestor Cang Lang.

”Young Master Yuntian is dead, slain by Sword Intent. Among the Heavenly Sword Sect disciples near Yun Province with this strength, only Second Mountain’s Chief, Lin Qingyue, fits the description.”

”Old Ancestor, why don’t we capture her first?”
