Wait… I’m a Druid in a Cultivation World?! - Chapter 114

According to Meng Yan, these twin demon girls were from the Mo Xiao Sect.

The Mo Xiao Sect was a major sect on par with the Qingyuan Sect and the Heaven Fire Pavilion. However, it wasn’t located next to the Qing Tian Domain but was separated from it by several other major domains.

In the cultivation world, a single major domain was already vast enough. Being separated by several domains meant that even Foundation Establishment cultivators couldn’t easily cross them, as they risked encountering dangers at the borders between domains.

There were rumors of sects acting as rogue cultivators, specifically targeting and killing non-local cultivators.

There were even records of quite a few Golden Core cultivators being ambushed and killed.

Therefore, for the Mo Xiao Sect to cross several major domains to reach Qingyuan Sect territory undoubtedly required significant effort. Once war broke out, whether they could simultaneously manage the war in the Qing Tian Domain and their own sect’s security was a serious issue.

Under normal circumstances, sects rarely waged war across domains.

For the Mo Xiao Sect to cross domains this time made their motives rather intriguing.

This pair, known as the “Black and White Twin Scourges,” had quite a reputation within the Mo Xiao Sect.

It wasn’t that their innate talent was extraordinary; in fact, their natural aptitude could only be considered decent. But they were quite resourceful and excelled at coordination.

Through certain well-known methods, they had become the “pets” of a certain elder in the Mo Xiao Sect, receiving a significant tilt in resources which allowed them to progress step by step to their current level.

Recently, in a sect war, they had defeated a rather famous genius even within the Mo Xiao Sect, relying on their highly skilled coordination.

They were consequently assessed as having the potential for Foundation Establishment. If they didn’t fall prematurely, they were destined to become famous among Foundation Establishment cultivators as the Demonic Twin Scourges, and they even had a chance to firmly secure their position in that Golden Core elder’s favor.

After all, who could refuse a twin pair at the Foundation Establishment stage?
In the current battle between these twin demon girls and Meng Yan, their performance was nothing short of impressive.

Meng Yan had comprehended the True Intent of Fire and was not far from consolidating a Dao Heart mental realm. His physical body’s strength was also exceptionally powerful.

Under his masterful hammer techniques, an ordinary ninth-level Qi Refinement cultivator wouldn’t last long.

Yet, even under Meng Yan’s ferocious assault, this twin demon girl pair managed to hold their ground completely, showing only the slightest hint of decline.

The two demon girls had practiced a coordinated set of techniques; the swords in their hands formed a special array, moving with extreme speed. They forcibly withstood Meng Yan’s terrifying brute strength, and occasionally their coordination even forced Meng Yan to retreat, posing a significant threat to him.

Especially since they had prior battle experience against Meng Yan, their responses this time were even more refined.

If not for Qi Ping’s involvement this time, it was possible these demon girls might have truly escaped again.

Moreover, with the Heaven Fire Pavilion disciple joining in, they might even have found an opportunity to seriously injure or kill Meng Yan.

It’s a pity all of that was just a hypothetical.

Because Meng Yan had brought Qi Ping along.

And that Heaven Fire Pavilion disciple had been killed by Qi Ping and Ya Ya joining forces.

After killing the Heaven Fire Pavilion disciple, Qi Ping and Ya Ya immediately joined the battlefield where Meng Yan fought the twin demon girls.

Ya Ya, covered in Yang Fire flames, swiftly plunged into the fray. With the Yang Fire flames and its highly defensive feathers, it feared the demon girls’ sword Qi attacks not at all. At least until Ya Ya’s innate spirit fire was exhausted, their attacks couldn’t pose much threat to it.

Especially with Meng Yan wielding his great hammer, relentlessly pursuing and attacking them.

Qi Ping also executed the same tactic as before, condensing even more powerful Exploding Fireballs and hurling them down at opportune moments.

Under the triple assault from Meng Yan, Qi Ping, and Ya Ya, the twin demon girls’ combat rhythm was quickly disrupted, revealing significant openings.
While the white-clothed demon girl was forced back after taking a direct hit from Meng Yan, she was struck by one of Qi Ping’s Exploding Fireballs. Her already strained protective robe directly shattered, and her back instantly became a bloody, charred, and mangled mess.

Severely wounded, she vomited a large mouthful of blackened blood.

Then, Meng Yan closed in again and smashed the white-clothed demon girl into pulp with his hammer.

With that, the white-clothed demon girl had fallen. The black-clothed demon girl’s combat power plummeted by seventy percent, posing no further threat to anyone.

“No!”

As the white-clothed demon girl was smashed to death by Meng Yan, the black-clothed demon girl let out a heart-wrenching scream. Even before Meng Yan or Qi Ping could attack, she herself was already vomiting blood and severely wounded.

She completely abandoned resistance, rushed to where her sister fell, and gathered the pieces of her sister’s flesh. Bloody tears streamed from her eyes, and her expression became utterly deranged.

Despite their cruelty and blood-stained hands, the bond they shared was absolutely irreplaceable.

For these sisters, as long as the other was still there, nothing else truly mattered.

Even if they lost their chastity, reputation, dignity… even if they bore countless slanders and infamy, it was all irrelevant.

As long as the two sisters were still by each other’s side.

But with the white-clothed demon girl dead without a whole corpse, it was all over. For the black-clothed demon girl, at this moment, nothing seemed to matter anymore…

Yet, facing this tragic scene, neither Meng Yan nor Qi Ping felt the slightest sympathy.

Especially Meng Yan, who seized the opportunity without hesitation and smashed the black-clothed demon girl into pulp with his hammer.

Sympathize with them?

Then who would sympathize with the Qingyuan Sect brothers and sisters who died by their hands?
Who would sympathize with the cultivators of the Qing Tian Domain who fell to them?
When they came to wreak havoc in the Qing Tian Domain, they should have long been prepared to die.
Furthermore, from Qi Ping’s perspective, he saw something on a higher level. In this war, perhaps not everyone participated willingly.

Especially the Qi Refinement disciples who were mere pawns.

But could the strategies of the Golden Core and Nascent Soul higher-ups be decided by ordinary disciples?

Even for Nascent Soul Venerables, talented disciples weren’t that crucial; that was merely the threshold to gain their attention.

Take Meng Yan, for example. A genius who comprehended the True Intent of Fire and was nearing a Dao Heart mental realm at the Qi Refinement stage, with high innate spiritual roots and physique talent too – yet even he was caught up involuntarily in such a war.

“It seems that even becoming a talented disciple within a sect doesn’t free one from the whims of fate. If you want to control your own destiny, you can only rely on yourself…” Qi Ping sighed inwardly.

This further strengthened his resolve to stay out of the fray. Unless absolutely necessary, lying low was best. Only if he couldn’t obtain cultivation techniques and resources otherwise.

Only by possessing powerful hidden advantages that go far beyond what is apparent can one avoid being outmaneuvered.
“Brother Meng, you take the storage pouches. Let’s get away from here quickly!” Qi Ping suggested.

Hearing this, Meng Yan was slightly taken aback.

In such situations, most people would actively compete for the storage pouches. Yet Qi Ping proactively suggested that he take them?

Brother Qi, you trust me too much!
What he didn’t know was that Qi Ping was simply afraid – afraid of being tracked by some strange circumstance or method. Qi Ping was extremely wary of the bizarre methods possible in the cultivation world.

Compared to potential gains, Qi Ping feared the risks more. After all, Qi Ping felt he didn’t have a powerful backer like Meng Yan did…
