Chapter 48: Leave in Three Breaths, I’ve Changed My Mind

Ren Qirui was chatting casually with Wang Yan, waiting for the secret realm to open.

The people of the Northern Region didn't interest them in the slightest.

However, the sudden appearance of Leng Yanran caught his eye!

He didn't care in the least that Leng Yanran had casually killed a first layer Profound Sky Realm cultivator.

Even Leng Yanran, who was at the seventh layer of the Profound Sky Realm, didn't seem particularly strong to him.

In this barren Northern Region, even if there were geniuses, their combat abilities would be greatly hindered by inferior cultivation technique.

He was confident that, at the same cultivation level, he could suppress ten Northern Region cultivators with ease!

"Hm?"

Hearing the voice, Leng Yanran turned her gaze and noticed that the mountain closest to the secret realm had already been occupied.

What's more, the young man there had already reached the ninth layer of the Profound Sky Realm at such a young age. She had never heard of such a genius in the Northern Region.

If she had known the mountain was already taken, she might have chosen another place to settle.

But the words of the young man just now annoyed her greatly!

Especially after just experiencing an incident of harassment, her disgust was still fresh, and now she was being provoked again.

Leng Yanran's face remained calm as she walked slowly toward the mountain.

"Haha, sensible indeed."

"That's good. I've never liked using force."

"By the way, Wang Yan, I might need to borrow your palace for something later. Is that alright?"

Ren Qirui chuckled as he saw the woman approaching, then spoke to Wang Yan beside him.

"No problem. Feel free, Brother Ren."

Wang Yan's expression was indifferent as he responded nonchalantly.

However, when his gaze fell on Leng Yanran, he couldn't help but feel a surge of wicked desire.

If not for wanting to maintain his image in front of the saintess Li Shenruo, he might have already claimed this woman for himself!

No way he was going to let this Ren Qirui have her so easily!

It had to be said, this woman from the Northern Region was just as beautiful as the saintess Li Shenruo!

However, their temperaments were entirely different. Both were cold and aloof, like icy mountains, but Li Shenruo exuded a sacred and untouchable aura.

In contrast, this woman from the Northern Region had a faint murderous air, carrying an aura of danger. Her figure was more voluptuous than Li Shenruo's, making her a stunning beauty of the mortal world!

When Leng Yanran approached, both men froze.

This woman… had horns on her head? She wasn't human?

"A demon from the Northern Region?"

"Heh, even better. This young master could keep her as a pet," Ren Qirui remarked, his grin widening.

"A demon..."

Even Li Shenruo, who had been meditating silently on a boulder, opened her eyes upon sensing Leng Yanran's presence.

"Saint-grade talent, and not from a low-level demon bloodline!"

She was genuinely surprised.

Li Shenruo cultivated a divine technique that allowed her to perceive a person's talent and innate talent.

When she used it on Leng Yanran just now, she found that Leng Yanran had the same Saint-grade talent and possessed a high-level demon bloodline.

This was peculiar.

How could there be a demon of such caliber in the Northern Region?

After the Demon War, the Demon Clan had retreated to the Western Region, rarely appearing elsewhere.

Puzzled, Li Shenruo decided to stop cultivating for the moment. She looked at Leng Yanran with interest, curious to see if she possessed any extraordinary methods—or if she would really end up as a plaything for Ren Qirui.

Li Shenruo made up her mind: if the situation allowed, she wouldn't mind stepping in to rescue Leng Yanran and bringing her back to the Holy Mountain.

A genius with Saint-grade talent, if nurtured as a future ally, could become a significant asset for her!

"An Extinction Realm avian beast?"

As Leng Yanran approached the mountain, her gaze flickered toward the flying beast radiating Extinction Realm energy.

Her brows furrowed slightly. This could be a problem.

Leng Yanran had intended to rely on her own strength to temper herself in the secret realm, avoiding excessive dependence on her master's power.

But the presence of an Extinction Realm beast created a massive disparity in strength, leaving her with no guarantee of victory.

If a fight broke out, her only option might be to use the Demonic Heaven Finger stored in her master's jade pendant to destroy it.

"Hehe, Wang Yan, look at her staring at your avian beast."

"She's probably never seen an Extinction Realm creature before, completely dumbfounded!"

Ren Qirui laughed smugly, pointing at Leng Yanran, mocking her lack of exposure.

He assumed she was terrified of the Extinction Realm beast.

Little did he know, Leng Yanran wasn't afraid. She was merely debating whether it was worth using her master's power to kill the beast.

From beginning to end, she never considered the Extinction Realm creature a real threat.

"You have three breaths to vacate this mountain."

Leng Yanran snapped out of her thoughts and cast a cold glance at the few people on the mountain.

A young woman and two men, all at the ninth layer of the Profound Sky Realm, exuded formidable auras. They seemed capable of rivaling Unity Realm experts.

But in Leng Yanran's eyes, they were insignificant. After two months of intense training with her master, her Demonic Heaven Finger had reached a proficient level.

She was confident she could crush any Profound Sky Realm opponent effortlessly.

The only person she couldn't gauge was an old man, who appeared to be a mere coachman. Based on her assessment, he was at least at the eight or the ninth layer of the Extinction Realm.

Still, it didn't matter. Her master had instructed her to never bow her head, not even to immortals.

These people were no exception.

"Did I hear that right?"

"Fair maiden, do you know what you just said?"

"Wang Yan, see this? It's your Extinction Realm beast's fault for scaring my new pet out of her wits!"

Ren Qirui froze for a moment before laughing exaggeratedly, slapping Wang Yan's shoulder.

He couldn't fathom how this Northern Region demoness had the audacity to demand they leave.

In his mind, Leng Yanran was already his possession, a mere toy at his disposal.

"I've changed my mind. The rest of you can leave, but this disgusting guy stays."

Leng Yanran frowned deeply at his words, baffled at how the world could harbor so much trash.

But it was clear neither Ren Qirui nor Wang Yan took her seriously. They remained calm and composed, curious to see what she would do once her "three breaths" were up.

Even the Northern Region factions nearby stretched their necks, nervously watching the scene unfold.

Earlier, the Eastern Region genius had demanded they leave within ten breaths. Now the tables had turned, with Fairy Leng giving them three breaths to leave.

The only question was—could she really pull it off?
