Novel Full Chapter 442 Underground
Aelina left the Crimson Slayer Sect without ever asking about Mira. Of course, there was a good reason for this. For one, that wasn’t the reason she made this little trip. No matter how talented Mira was, that’s all she was: a talent. Sure, her potential is limitless, but until she reaches that potential, she’s just like every other disciple.
If she had to leave the Sect to confront every person who dared to kill one of her disciples, she’d never be free!
Sure, she can order the other elders to go in her place, but why should she do that to them? Most of them are busy cultivating, researching, concocting, creating, or on some other mission, she’s already given them.
They don’t have time to take care of every casualty in the Sect, nor should they have to.
Now, if Mira were a Core Disciple, Direct Disciple, or Elder, that’d be a different story. Everyone who possesses one of those titles is unique and irreplaceable to the Sect.
However, Mira is only a talented Outer Court Disciple. Even if her strength has reached the bare minimum for the Inner Court, she’s barely contributed anything to the Sect.
Not to mention, Aelina has never seen Mira before.
Therefore, why should she make a move personally for a disciple she knows little to nothing about?
Going to the Crimson Slayer Sect to look for her was only secondary.
The second reason she didn’t ask Cyrus about Mira is that she could not sense anyone who looked like Mira in the entire Crimson Slayer Sect. This isn’t only limited to their headquarters but all the branch sects.
The Elders know to keep an eye out for anyone who looks like Mira, but they all reported there is no such person.
So, Aelina concluded that Mira was not in the Sect, but if it were just that, then she would’ve asked Cyrus about Mira’s status.
However, she didn’t feel a need to inform the old man that Mira had been successfully captured and was currently en route to the Crimson Slayer Sect. Wouldn’t that only put Mira in more danger?
It’s better to have old man Cyrus think that Mira was safe and sound in the Battle Maiden Sect.
Plus, according to Maria’s knowledge of Mira, the latter was most likely fine, to begin with.
Thus, she just got what she wanted and left. Maybe when she gets back, she’ll have a few disciples or Elders keep an eye out for Mira’s whereabouts, but other than that, she’d leave Mira’s status up to fate.
Once the clone appeared in front of Aelina’s main body, she reabsorbed the Qi, took out the talisman, and said, “Mission accomplished. Let’s head back to the Sect.”
“Understood, Sect Master!” x15
With a slight smile, Aelina sped off towards the Battle Maiden Sect, excited to research the two techniques she came here for.

Cyrus sat in his study, clutching the sides of his head. Despite his earlier thoughts, he knew that the Sect had taken a hit today. It wasn’t anything reversible, but losing Late and Peak Grade Spirit Stones isn’t exactly something they can recover because they want to.
They don’t have very many of them, to begin with, but Aelina dropped in, took a few, and left. So, now their already limited reserves have been decreased, and for what?
His disciple going insane? The Crimson Slayer Sect’s disciples being killed? Barely trespassing on Battle Maiden Sect territory?
Bullshit!
‘It’s only my Sect suffering losses, yet that thieving bitch still came in and demanded so much just because someone walked a little too far on her mountain?!’
A seed of hatred slowly formed in old man Cyrus’ mind.
‘I’m a Sect Master, for fuck’s sake! Yet she dares to treat me like some random servant?!’
“Battle Maiden Sect, huh… Are they truly as invincible as history makes them out to be?” Cyrus muttered as a plan slowly formed in his mind.
After a while, a sinister smile appeared on his face.
“I guess we’ll see soon enough! ahahaha-Hahahahaha!”
***
Going back in time by about a day, deep underground in an unknown location, Number Two, who was holding Mira, suddenly appeared.
Number Two immediately checked out his surroundings as he was hoping he’d either be inside the Sect or at least close to it, but…
“Where the fuck is this?!”
The talisman he used to escape the Battle Maiden Sect’s territory was something he found in an ancient inheritance site. It was the only thing he was able to take from the site since he was too weak to get anything else at the time.
The description of the talisman was quite mysterious. All it said was, “It’ll teleport you where you need to go.”
Naturally, the word ‘teleport’ caught his attention, and since the other items he could choose from weren’t all that good, he picked this talisman.
However, he didn’t use it right away.
Why?
Because who knows where it’ll teleport him!
What if it sends him to a place full of Rank 8 beasts? Wouldn’t he die without a grave? So, he planned to save it and use it either when he gets stronger or as a means to escape.
But what’s with this? Why is he in a fucking cave?!
He NEEDED to return to the Crimson Slayer Sect! He didn’t need to end up in a cave!
“Haaaa… Let’s calm down. What’s done is done. At least I teleported away from the Battle Maiden Sect and kept my life intact. Who knows, there might be something good down here. This could very well be a blessing in disguise!”
He thought like this because the Qi in this cave is much denser than it was on the surface.
Mira, who still acted like she was unconscious, noticed this as well and began refilling her core with Qi while focusing on recovering. She wanted nothing more than to kill this fool and leave this place.
Her intuition was telling her this place was incredibly dangerous. Even worse, she couldn’t sense the presence of anything other than Number Two.
Once Number Two was done inspecting the surrounding area and was unable to find anything, he turned his gaze towards Mira.
It had to be said that even though Mira wasn’t quite as voluptuous and seductive as one might expect despite her relation to the fox race, her body and natural aura made Number Two have the urge to conquer.
A tall, domineering, and prideful woman like Mira… What man wouldn’t want to have a woman like that under him, at the mercy of his c*ck?
‘Should I? I mean, I don’t sense any dangers nearby, and this might be my only chance to enjoy a beauty of this caliber. Plus, I really want to see what kind of face is under that mask! I don’t believe that this girl is not a heaven-defying beauty!’ Number Two tried justifying himself in his mind as he slowly walked over to Mira.
Sensing this, Mira’s mind stirred.
‘Fuck! This idiot! Are all people from whatever power this guy came from brain dead?! First, it was that young man two months ago who never used his full power, and now it’s these fools who can’t think before they act! I thought this guy would be smarter than his companions, but it seemed I was wrong!’ Mira became infuriated just thinking about it.
She wasn’t worried that she would get r*ped because she still had her black tail, but she didn’t want to use it against this idiot as she’s in an unknown environment with unknown dangers lurking about.
In a few seconds, Number Two hovered over Mira’s body. He lowered his body and stretched out his hands to begin stripping…
Sensing this, Mira roared in her mind.
‘You motherfucker! Are you really going to force my hand?! I would rather not use my trump card on a cretin like you, but you are really pushing your luck here!’
…
Number Two’s hands slowly touched the hem of Mira’s clothes and the bottom of her mask.
Suddenly, something appeared above them. Neither Mira nor Number Two were able to sense it, but a shadow had appeared above them.
The shadow seemed to look at Mira for a second before its gaze fell on Number Two. It sensed that Number Two was the stronger of the two people below it, so without hesitation, it struck!
A black claw descended from the ceiling and swiped at Number Two, blowing up his head like a watermelon!
The claw then grasped Number Two’s body and carried it toward the ceiling.
*Crunch* *Crunch*
*Gulp*
The shadow’s ‘gaze’ then fell on Mira’s body, causing the latter to stiffen.
She could feel that Number Two had just died, but she didn’t know how or who did!
However, she could feel something look at her after Number Two died. Something much more dangerous…
‘Ah… It seems I might be forced to use my trump card anyways.’ Mira bitterly thought to herself, ready to kill whatever was looking at her.
