Joining the Joyful Union Sect, My Life in the Grip of My Senior Sister

Chapter 543: How Dare You Scheme Against This Empress? Such Audacity!

Lin Fengmian was unaware that Jun Yunshang was already planning to defeat him three times a day. Instead, he was filled with anticipation for the wonderful life that lay ahead of him.

A faint smile curled up at the corners of his lips. In three days, he would be able to head for Junlin City.

“Yunshang, I’m coming.”

But for now, he still had to deal with that old bastard Jun Chengye!

With a wave of his hand, he boarded the carriage and returned to the prince’s residence under the protection of You Yao and the other guard.

Jun Yunshang followed him resolutely. Whether he was Young Master Ye or not, she couldn’t let him be possessed by someone else.

She was also very interested in who the mastermind behind him was.

“How dare you plot against this empress? Such audacity!”

At this moment, she had a vague guess in her heart, although she wasn’t entirely sure yet.

Lin Fengmian returned to the prince’s residence, hurried into the study, and activated the teleportation array.

Jun Yunshang was momentarily stunned when she saw the teleportation array, but she acted quickly, leaving a mark on Lin Fengmian’s body.

With a flash of light, Lin Fengmian disappeared from the study.

Jun Yunshang sensed the location of the mark, and her expression turned somewhat peculiar.

This mysterious cave dwelling was actually located under the royal palace. A cold glint flashed in her eyes as she decisively gave chase.

Inside the mysterious cave dwelling, Lin Fengmian looked at Jun Chengye, who still showed no reaction, and heaved a long sigh of relief.

He searched the cave for books that could activate the Blood Sacrifice Array, but found nothing.

Lin Fengmian gritted his teeth, pulled out the Dragon Slaying Sword he had just obtained, and began hacking away at Jun Chengye.

He wanted to confirm once again whether he really couldn’t do anything to this old bastard.

Meanwhile, Jun Yunshang arrived in front of the underground cave dwelling and carefully sensed her surroundings.

She detected the aura of the Heavenly Fiend Hall here, but she didn’t sense the presence of the Heavenly Fiend Sovereign.

It seemed that the Heavenly Fiend Sovereign hadn’t expected this plan to fool her, so he hadn’t paid much attention to it.

Jun Yunshang smiled self-deprecatingly, but the fact that she was here suggested that she wasn’t as clever as he had imagined!

To avoid alerting anyone, she carefully broke a corner of the cave’s formation and quietly sent a strand of her Divine Sense inside.

Her powerful Divine Sense swept through the entire cave, and the horrifying scene within caused her expression to change slightly.

The master of this cave was truly insane, and their actions were absolutely despicable!

Enraged, Jun Yunshang searched for the culprit and soon saw the only living person in the cave cursing and hacking at a desiccated corpse.

In this scene, if Lin Fengmian had a hint of a crazed smile on his lips, he would look exactly like a murderous demon.

“Huh?”

Was this the wrong way to approach this?

Soon, Jun Yunshang noticed the powerful aura emanating from the desiccated corpse and immediately realized that this was the true master of the cave.

Looking at the blood sacrifice arrangement in the cave, Jun Yunshang quickly figured out most of the situation.

Had the master failed in his attempt to possess someone, and instead gotten trapped in this withered body, almost being sent to his doom by the very blood sacrifice array he had prepared?

Jun Yunshang couldn’t help but feel a mixture of amusement and pity for the mastermind.

A Void Realm expert, after all their meticulous planning, had been defeated by someone at the Foundation Establishment Realm?

Since the master of the cave was already a lifeless corpse, Jun Yunshang did not hesitate any longer and began to violently break the formation to enter.

After all, with Lin Fengmian’s cultivation level, there was no way he could detect her.

As expected, Lin Fengmian was completely oblivious. Jun Yunshang floated in midair, watching him with interest as he busied himself.

Was he unable to activate the Blood Sacrifice Array and worried that the desiccated corpse might revive, so he was trying to eliminate the threat once and for all?

A quarter of an hour later, Lin Fengmian threw the Dragon Slaying Sword aside and kicked Jun Chengye in frustration.

“Jun Chengye, you are something else. Truly a thousand-year-old tortoise, stubborn and tough as nails!”

He had tried every method he could think of, but he still couldn’t do anything to Jun Chengye’s body. He was exhausted.

Jun Yunshang was momentarily stunned, and her heart was thrown into turmoil.

Jun Chengye?

“Fourth brother, so it really is you!”

Since Lin Fengmian couldn’t do anything to Jun Chengye, he had no choice but to pin his hopes on Luo Xue to activate the Blood Sacrifice Array. Otherwise, she might not be able to do anything either.

After all, no matter how strong Luo Xue was, given his current cultivation level, it would still be difficult to harm this old ghost.

“No, I can’t completely rely on Luo Xue. I have to think of another way.”

Suddenly, Lin Fengmian had an idea and thought of Ye Yingying. His eyes lit up.

This infamous Poison Master was known for her ruthlessness. Perhaps she had some kind of pill that could deal with this old ghost.

If all else failed, he could just feed him a few poison pills, laxatives, or even aphrodisiacs!

Since there was still some time before nightfall, Lin Fengmian immediately left through the teleportation array to find Ye Yingying.

After Lin Fengmian left, Jun Yunshang revealed herself and pressed a finger against Jun Chengye’s body, examining it carefully.

She found no trace of the Jun family’s bloodline in this body, meaning that it wasn’t his original form.

However, she detected two familiar auras within the chaotic sea of consciousness.

The Heavenly Fiend Sovereign… and Young Master Ye?

Jun Yunshang looked at the glowing reincarnation seal, her expression complex.

“Was this seal placed by Young Master Ye back then?”

If that was the case, then the person before her was really the Fourth Brother.

No wonder he had faked his death before she achieved sainthood – he was afraid that she would remember his soul’s aura.

A sharp sword intent gathered at Jun Yunshang’s fingertip, but after a moment of hesitation, she suppressed her killing intent.

She could easily turn Jun Chengye’s fake death into a real one.

But if he died under mysterious circumstances, the Heavenly Fiend Sovereign would surely notice, which would only alert him.

If the Heavenly Fiend Sovereign turned his attention here, that boy-who might or might not be Young Master Ye’s reincarnation-would be in trouble.

“Fine, I’ll let you linger a little longer.”

Jun Yunshang extended a thin finger and lightly tapped Jun Chengye’s forehead.

A powerful surge of soul energy flowed from her fingertip, condensing into a soul blade that pierced Jun Chengye’s consciousness.

Jun Chengye let out a muffled groan, his body twitching a few times before falling completely still.

Originally, Jun Chengye would have regained consciousness in a few days, but after this blow, it would take him at least a year or two to recover.

Jun Yunshang looked at the motionless Jun Chengye and smiled with satisfaction.

“Fourth brother, you probably haven’t had a good night’s sleep in centuries. You can rest well this time!”

After finishing this task, she hesitated for a moment but decided not to continue tracking Lin Fengmian.

By now, Jun Yunshang had figured out Jun Wuxie’s origin and realized that this was all Jun Chengye’s plan.

If everything had been fake, it would have been easier to handle, but it seemed that Jun Chengye had turned fiction into reality?

This left Jun Yunshang in a bit of a dilemma.

Although the Heavenly Fiend Hall didn’t seem to place much importance on this matter, they were clearly aware of it!

They had gone to great lengths to create a fake Young Master Ye, all to deceive her into revealing the secrets of the Heavenly Abyss.

She had to show some interest, but she couldn’t appear too eager, lest she expose her weaknesses.

Once they believed that she had accepted him as Young Master Ye, and if they failed to extract the secrets, they would surely use him to manipulate her.

If she appeared too indifferent, the boy would lose his value and likely be killed soon.
