Chapter 2475 - 2476: Immortal Platform
Chapter 2475: Chapter 2476: Immortal Platform
The Witch God Cult is located at the center of this land of sorcery and witchcraft, surrounded by five towering peaks, with a raised platform in the middle.
From a distance, it looks like an Immortal holding it with his hand, thus it is also called the Immortal’s Platform.
At this moment, Xue An and Shu Ling’er have halted a few miles away from the Immortal’s Platform.
"Is this the main altar of your Witch God Cult?" Xue An asked indifferently.
"Yes!" Shu Ling’er nodded, the look of desolation appearing in her eyes, "Unfortunately, the Witch God Cult now is no longer the same as it once was!"
"Including the Sect Hierarch, all the high-ranking members of the Witch God Cult have been corrupted and controlled by evil forces!"
"This place... is merely in name only now."
Xue An chuckled, "The so-called ’merely in name only’ is but your opinion; with the Sect Hierarch and high-ranks being controlled by evil creatures, why not just kill them all?"
Shu Ling’er was taken aback by the murderous intent shown through Xue An’s words, before asking with some difficulty.
"Master, what should we do next? Just kill our way in?"
Xue An shook his head, "I came here specifically not just to exterminate this Witch God Cult, so next you’ll need to follow my instructions, understood?"
Shu Ling’er nodded vigorously, "Understood!"
In truth, she knew better than anyone that she had no retreat at this moment, if she wanted to survive she could only cling tightly to Xue An.
So she didn’t hesitate a bit, looking fervently at Xue An.
Xue An smiled faintly, "Good, now it’s time for you to take your turn!"
The guards in front of the Witch God Cult were still the same people as before, in fact, although all high-ranking members of the Witch God Cult had been controlled by evil forces at this moment, there wasn’t much alteration in the middle and lower ranks.
After all, for a sect, as long as the upper echelon is controlled, it’s enough.
They wouldn’t go as far as to corrupt the guards at the door.
Evil energy is really valuable, you know.
Using it on those ordinary disciples would be a complete waste.
And hence, when Shu Ling’er came to the mountain gate along the mountain path, she still saw those familiar faces.
These guards were also stunned to see Shu Ling’er.
"Ho... Holy Maiden?"
Someone muttered in shock, then immediately pushed by someone beside him and suddenly remembered Shu Ling’er was no longer the Holy Maiden of the Witch God Cult now, hurriedly shutting his mouth.
The remaining guards all looked at Shu Ling’er with full vigilance.
Shu Ling’er’s expression was cold as ice, she said flatly, "Open the gate, I want to go in!"
The guards exchanged glances, then one quick-witted individual immediately ran inside, while the remaining people opened the mountain gate.
Shu Ling’er stepped inside, everything in sight remained as before, yet her mindset had undergone an enormous change.
Previously she came here as a master, now she became an enemy.
This change made Shu Ling’er’s heart tighten, but her face showed no change, walking step by step towards the main altar of the Immortal’s Platform.
Along the way, all those ordinary disciples were shocked.
"Isn’t... is this not the Holy Maiden?"
"Hush, lower your voice, she’s no longer the Holy Maiden. Didn’t you hear the Sect Hierarch say, she’s defected and is already an enemy of the Witch God Cult!"
"Then why has she come back?"
"I guess to confess, seeing her heavily injured, she must have no way out and returned to plead guilty and face the law!"
Amidst the discussions, Shu Ling’er said nothing, she walked step by step toward the main altar of the Witch God Cult.
Upon ascending the Immortal’s Platform, all the elders of the Witch God Cult had already gathered here, seemingly waiting for Shu Ling’er.
Seeing her, these elders’ eyes lit up, some even had red gleams showing in their pupils.
"Shu Ling’er, you finally know to come back!"
Shu Ling’er took a deep breath, "Of course I must return, as I am still the Holy Maiden of this Witch God Cult!"
"Holy Maiden... haha." These elders let out a cold laugh, the meaning was clear without words.
"You don’t need to be sarcastic, we both know what really happened, I’m back this time to tell the current Sect Hierarch something important, if delayed can you bear the responsibility?"
"Oh? What important matter?" one elder asked coldly.
Shu Ling’er didn’t speak, merely waved her hand, revealing an image of Xue An through Shui Jing.
"You must have come for this man! I wonder if you’re interested in him?"
Upon seeing Xue An’s image, these elders turned ashen, and just at this moment.
A solemn male voice came from the hall behind the crowd.
"Let her in!"
The crowd immediately parted, creating a path, Shu Ling’er walked with head high through it, then entered the hall.
The arrangement in the hall was just as before, not even the position of the tables and chairs had changed.
Yet the people sitting there were no longer the ones from before.
On the central high platform, a figure was seated on a chair overlooking the entire hall.
Though far apart, Shu Ling’er could still feel the utmost evil contained in those eyes.
This feeling made her shiver, she lowered her head deeply, concealing the panic in her eyes.
"Shu Ling’er, I never thought you’d dare come back alone, as I said before, if you surrender to me, I can grant you equally eternal life!"
This figure spoke leisurely, then extended a crimson tongue licking his lips.
Shu Ling’er trembled, she forcibly suppressed the horror in her heart, raising her head to look at this former Sect Hierarch.
"I don’t want any eternal life, I only hope you spare me, so I bring you an important message!"
"You mean this Xue An?" the Witch God Cult Sect Hierarch sneered.
"Sure, our arrival this time is indeed related to him, but he’s not the ultimate target, naturally there is a master to deal with him!"
"What interests me rather is you...."
"Me?"
"Indeed!"
With these words, the figure suddenly appeared in front of Shu Ling’er, then reached a finger to lightly stroke her face.
"Such a delicate and charming face would be too pitiful if peeled off, don’t you think?" the Witch God Cult Sect Hierarch’s eyes revealed a cruel gleam.
He relished the feeling of absolute control, especially enjoying the scared expressions of these Human Clan women, it filled him with the pleasure of controlling everything.
Of course, his determination for Shu Ling’er was not merely for possession, but because as the Holy Maiden of the Witch God Cult, Shu Ling’er could communicate with the ancient Witch God on the altar.
Those existences were the greatest temptation to this group of evil creatures.
As for the news about Xue An....
This evil creature didn’t care, in his view, he was just an ordinary Human Clan youth, he could deal with him at the Bai Family meeting later.
But just as his fingertip slid to Shu Ling’er’s slender neck and continued downward, a slender hand suddenly appeared and firmly grasped his palm.
