Chapter 568 - 568: Heavenly Ascension Cave! Bandit Jun Tianyun
*GASP!*
Qin Yuyue’s eyes snapped open as she looked at herself. The sky was already dark, with moonlight shining upon her. She touched around her body, feeling that the pain had vanished.
In front of her was a bonfire, with Jun Tianyun sitting casually, roasting some meat. The aroma of meat and herbs made her nose twitch.
*GRUMBLE! GRUMBLE!*
” You know, if you are hungry, just say so.” Jun Tianyun chuckled, spinning the meat on the fire.
” Water.”
” Yes?” Jun Tianyun looked at her. Qin Yuyue nodded as she asked in a clear voice, ” I said, I want water. I feel thirsty.”
With a snap of a finger, a glass of water appeared before Qin Yuyue. Qin Yuyue gulped down the water. Magically, the glass filled once again, letting her keep drinking from it.
” You… You are really from the Jun Family?”
Qin Yuyue placed the glass down, looking at Jun Tianyun with complicated expression. However, rather than answering, Jun Tianyun handed her a leaf platter with sliced cooked meat on it.
” Here, eat something. You have to restore some energy after all.”
Without any hesitation, Qin Yuyue blew the smoke and stuffed it in her mouth. She closed her eyes, her body slouched.
” MMMMGH! No way! Why is this…Tastes so good?!” Qin Yuyue couldn’t help but moan, only to pause the next moment. A faint blush appeared on her, but she realized Jun Tianyun wasn’t even looking at her, he was eating his own fill.
‘ Gosh, he isn’t even noticing me.’ Qin Yuyue complained in her heart, but the reality of the moment sombered her once again.
” Ahem, thank you for saving me from such a dire situation. Without you, perhaps I might have died.” Qin Yuyue wiped her lips and cupped her face.
” What are you looking at?” Qin Yuyue saw Jun Tianyun staring at her, making her feel a bit awkward.
However, Jun Tianyun felt perplexed as he saw the oozing pitch-black aura around Qin Yuyue.
‘ Wow, what are the chances that my fiancé turned out to have the fate of a super villainess?’
Other than Zi Yanrou’s misfortune, Jun Tianyun only met Jun Ronghua having the villainess template like his own. But now, it turned out her childhood fiancé is also carrying the same aura.
‘ Hmm, As expected, she wouldn’t have died today, but captured. After that, she would have faced torture till she had broken free. Then probably retaliate against some Son of Heaven or his harem member.’ Jun Tianyun pondered.
” I asked you something.”
” Ah, it’s nothing.” Jun Tianyun returned to his senses, looking at Qin Yuyue, ” Elder Ding came to our clan, seeking help for you. Well, as your fiancé, my family and I are eligible to support you openly in the struggle of cult leader.”
” I…” Qin Yuyue looked at Jun Tianyun for a moment, ” Do you not think you are talking a bit…weird?”
” Weird as in?” Jun Tianyun was confused for a moment before understanding, ” Ah, I see… We are meeting for the first time after all. Though I don’t think we have anything more than basic gratitude amidst us.”
Qin Yuyue was speechless; however, she couldn’t retort either. She had almost forgotten she was betrothed till recently, the elder reminded her. Hell, she even considered marriage annulment quite some time ago.
“It just feels so…odd to suddenly…meet the person who you are supposed to marry.” Qin Yuyue sighed, ” Do you really have to…”
” Don’t take me wrong.” Jun Tianyun spoke casually, ” I am here because in a sense, we are bound by engagement. If you wish, we can annul it right now.”
Qin Yuyue’s face stiffened when she heard Jun Tianyun. A hint of annoyance flashed in her face, but she composed herself.
‘ Wh-What the hell is with him?! No, Yuyue, you can’t be angry with him. No matter what, he has the strength.’ Qin Yuyue muttered in her heart, ‘ If Elder Ding trusted him, there must be a reason.’
” Do you wish to know about the Sun Moon Sacred Cult?” Qin Yuyue looked at Jun Tianyun. Jun Tianyun threw a piece of meat in his mouth, ” Not really. I have more or less, a grasp on the situation.”
” So this Song Mingwu is the biggest obstacle, huh? Say, once he is gone, that means everything will return to normal?”
” Unfortunately, No.” Qin Yuyue sighed, ” The Sun Moon Cult has been split. And after Cult Leader’s sudden death, many factions that stayed low before now baring their fangs.”
” Only by gaining the approval of two third of the elders, I could become the Cult Leader.”
Jun Tianyun nodded, ” Very well. Then what are you doing here?”
” I came here to find the… Wait, why do you wish to know?” Qin Yuyue suddenly became vigilant. However, Jun Tianyun shrugged, ” I don’t think there would be any benefits if you hide it. I have heard of the Heavenly Ascension Cave.”
Qin Yuyue was speechless. ‘ Why did you ask then?’
But she sighed and explained, ” The Heavenly Ascension Cave is where the Ancestor became the First Heavenly Demon. He ascended to the realm beyond the Xiantian Realm, unifying the southern planes, western mountains, and beyond the Thousand Demon Mountains.”
” It’s said he left behind something for his predecessors in the cave. Only those who qualify or bear his bloodline can enter the cave.”
” So, your plan is to enter the cave, increase your strength and return to the cult for revenge?” Jun Tianyun pondered, ” I doubt it will work.”
” Why do you think so?” Qin Yuyue narrowed her eyes, ” Are you disrespecting The Heavenly Ascension Cave?”
” You are at a high stage of the Grandmaster Realm. Sure, with the help of the cave, you can reach the Houtian Realm. But reaching it will take time.” Jun Tianyun warmed his palms on the flames.
” But can you wait until then? Not to mention, Even if you reach Houtian Realm, can you defeat the cult elders? Because, even if Song Mingwu’s strength would be less than yours, he won’t fight fairly.”
” Then what do you want me to do?” Qin Yuyue gritted her teeth, ” Because, even if I return right now, they will try to kill me again. Even the Fourth Elder, who supported me earlier, defected to that bastard.”
Jun Tianyun looked at Qin Yuyue for a moment before patting his thighs. ” Ah yes, what you said is also true.”
” Very well, let’s go to the Heavenly Ascension Cave.”
” Wh-What?”
Qin Yuyue was stunned. But a few minutes later, she found herself standing before a massive wall.
” Ahem, opening the gate is no joke. Hmph, even Xiantian realm Masters can’t break through it.” Qin Yuyue spoke haughtily. ” Now, stand aside. I have to…”
Before she could finish, the gate rumbled as countless bright cracks appeared on the wall. With a burst of radiance, the portal opened.
” Should we go in?”
Qin Yuyue almost felt her jaws hitting on the ground. ” HO-HOW DID YOU…”
” Well, in the end it’s just a sealing formation.” Jun Tianyun explained as he was holding his Heavenly Luopan Compass. ” Did you forget? I am from the Jun Clan, the bandits of three realms.”
Before Qin Yuyue could say anything, Jun Tiayun stepped inside. Instantly, his figure vanished, making Qin Yuyue chase after her.
Suddenly, their surroundings changed as a vast expanse of narrow hall appeared before them. Blue flames lit up, illuminating the space in a creepy way.
” So, this is the Heavenly Ascension Cave.” Qin Yuyue murmured, ” Even the air is filled with pure demonic qi. Practicing internal energy arts here would be so beneficial.”
” Well, I believe you should focus on that.” Jun Tianyun pointed before him. At the end of the hallway, skeleton figures emerged, holding swords and shields. ” Looks like the trial is on. Best of luck.”
” Huh??”
Qin Yuyue turned around, but Jun Tianyun suddenly vanished. When she turned away again, the skeletons had already reached her.
” Fuck! What a bastard!” Qin Yuyue pulled out her sword as she jumped to the fight.

” Sister Qingyao, what do you think?” Jun Tianyun walked in a dark space before it suddenly opened into a vast chaos.
” This… This is immortal qi!”
Su Qingyao stepped out, crying out in surprise.
