Xue Ya stretched lazily, and her loose Daoist robe slipped off her shoulder again.

Gu Lan instinctively averted her gaze.

Xue Ya said, "I believe Fan Wubing will come back." Her smile was rich with meaning, "Dear sister, listen to me, be proactive, that silly boy won’t be able to resist. If you don’t act, someone else will snatch him away."

Gu Lan thought this woman was really wanton, with no basic self-respect, and had no good feelings towards her. But then she realized, wasn’t she also that type with a full chest and slim waist! Compared to her, Xue Ya was even more sexy and alluring.

Her neck tightened, "You wouldn’t..."

Seeing Gu Lan’s nervous and uneasy expression, Xue Ya felt a sudden sense of satisfaction, "Wouldn’t what? Say it."

Gu Lan was too embarrassed to mention such things, her face flushed red, but seeing the smile on Xue Ya’s face made her feel completely dominated by her. Perhaps it was a woman’s competitive spirit, or perhaps she didn’t believe Junior Brother Wubing would fool around with such a wanton woman, so she couldn’t help but say:

"Celestial Venerable Youxuan shouldn’t overestimate herself. Junior Brother Wubing would never like a wanton woman."

This unexpectedly hit a nerve, recalling a bad memory for Xue Ya, making her roll her eyes instantly,

"Heartless little girl. I’m teaching you how to pursue Fan Wubing, and instead, you turn against me."

Gu Lan immediately understood that this woman must have pursued Junior Brother Wubing but failed, which made her secretly delighted and her expression relaxed,

"I think if you can’t do it yourself, you shouldn’t casually teach others, lest you lead them astray."

Xue Ya almost spat out blood, "Lead them astray!" She pointed a trembling finger at Gu Lan, her body shaking, "I’ve lived for over three thousand years and have been with more men than you’ve ever seen, and you say I lead them astray?"

Gu Lan sneered, "Casual mating without love, how is that different from animals?"

Xue Ya took a deep breath and said coldly, "One day you will understand, seeking love from others is a very foolish thing. Love is a shackle, passion a cage, they will turn into bonds, invisibly binding you, making you unable to live or die. All that you do, all that you think of, are desires. Desire is human nature."

Gu Lan’s eyes sparkled, "I agree that desire is human nature. But desire comes first, then resolution; desire and resolution are just complements to the past, while love is the continuation of the future. Celestial Venerable Youxuan may want to resolve desires with Junior Brother Wubing, but I want to spend a lifetime with him."

Xue Ya suddenly laughed joyfully, with wanton delight,

"Oh my, you admit your relationship with him."

Gu Lan was stunned, then widened her eyes, "You tricked me!"

Xue Ya propped her chin, looked at Gu Lan, and said with a smiling face, "You are indeed a naive girl."

Gu Lan’s face turned red to the roots of her ears, "You would even expose yourself just to trick me!"

Xue Ya’s eyes were playful, "Expose? Little girl, who in the world doesn’t know that Xue Youxuan is wanton and unruly? What exposure is there?"

"Don’t you feel any shame at all!"

Xue Ya said seriously, "Yes. Failing to win over Fan Wubing is very shameful for me. That boy has set my standards so high that I can’t look at anyone else, my eyes are only on him." She threw a flirtatious glance at Gu Lan.

Gu Lan stepped back a few paces, clenched her fists and said through gritted teeth, "As long as I live, I will never let you get close to Junior Brother Wubing! As his senior sister, I will definitely protect him!"

Xue Ya squinted her eyes, "Just like I was back then."

"What?"

Xue Ya instead smiled, "Don’t become the next Xue Youxuan."

After saying that, she closed her eyes, her aura instantly retracted, as if she had fallen asleep.

Gu Lan snorted coldly, sat down, and waited for Fu Manman to return.

...

The Demon Lord assembly finally convened smoothly.

The aura belonging to the Flesh Demon Lord still echoed tragically in the Demon Lord Hall. At his final moments, his shrieking despair, frightening and nightmarish, collided with the walls, turning into a background music-like presence.

The demons discussed the Nether Demon Lord’s Path of the Demon Lord under such circumstances, with unchanged expressions, unaffected in the slightest.

To them, the death of a Demon Lord was nothing surprising.

Fan Wubing observed the demons.

Among these people, only Jiang Sha and the scholar-like Greedy Demon Lord gave him a feeling unlike other Demon Cultivators, as for the others, the Beast Demon Lord and Rot Demon Lord just looked like Great Demons, the Charm Demon Lord’s mind was full of depravity and seduction, and the Anger Demon Lord’s jealousy was almost dripping from his eyes.

Fan Wubing glanced at the Anger Demon Lord and couldn’t help but wonder, is this guy the same type as Ye Wuyue, likes women, why is he jealous of him then?

Only after Greedy Demon Lord elaborated did Fan Wubing understand that they also didn’t know where Lv Liang came from or how he suddenly qualified to embark on the Path of the Demon Lord.

However, Demon Cultivators were unlike righteous people who would care about someone’s background.

Regarding Lv Liang’s Path of the Demon Lord, there wasn’t much to discuss. Because the time had not come yet, the specifics of the Path of the Demon Lord were unknown.

Compared to that, they were more concerned with taking advantage of the current tense warfare in the various continents’ Fallen Immortal Land to heavily trample the arrogance of the prominent righteous sects. Previously, White Jade Capital, Wenxin Heaven, and a host of forces united to hunt demons, making their lives unbearable, unable to even show their heads, but this time, they would definitely return the favor.

The Greedy Demon Lord laughed, "So, what’s your retaliation plan?"

The Beast Demon Lord spoke first, "My proposal is simple, back then, whoever put in the most effort to subjugate my Shefa Sect, we deal with them first."
