After noticing Yang Wei had fallen asleep, Elder Jing opened her eyelid slightly to nce at him.


    ''This Yang Wei actually got furious for once…'' Elder Jing eximed inwardly as she was surprised by his fierce attitude toward Lian Xinyue.


    She pretended to be unconscious to see what Lian Xinyue was trying to do and was surprised to see her bombarding Yang Wei with questions regarding his rtionship.


    ''Who would have thought Yang Wei got angry because Lian Xinyue''s tone was too loud?'' Elder Jing smiled briefly as she stared at the calm and rxing expression of Yang Wei.


    He was sleeping soundly yet his hand remained on her shoulders, almost like he was afraid of losing her during his sleep.


    Shortly after, Elder Jing decided to truly sleep this time as she received some warmth from Yang Wei''s body.


    Sometimeter, an unknown number of unknown hours had passed before Elder Pao Huang came rushing toward Elder Jing.


    "E-Elder Jing… there''s an emergency-" Elder Pao Huang shouted as he tried to ask Elder Jing for help but halted his words when he saw the scene in front of him.


    His eye socket seemed to pop out as he quickly rubbed his eyes to check if he was seeing some illusion.


    ''What is Yang Wei doing? He''s leaning on Elder Jing''s shoulder…'' Elder Pao Huang was shocked speechless as he saw this ambiguous scene that would cause a lot of rumors and gossip


    Meanwhile, Elder Jing opened her eyelid as she nced at Elder Pao Huang in a confused expression.


    "What are you shouting so early in the morning?" Elder Jing then asked, disregarding Elder Pao Huang''s shocked expressionpletely.


    Elder Pao Huang twitched his mouth as he coughed slightly and signaled her something with his eyes to tell Elder Jing her current position.


    Elder Jing noticed his meaning as she tilted her head slightly and saw Yang Wei sleeping calmly on her shoulders.


    Afterward, Elder Jing smiled briefly at Yang Wei''s cute face before looking back at Elder Pao Huang.


    "Yang Wei is sleeping soundly so what about it?" Elder Jing said, causing Elder Pao Huang to vomit blood as he wondered if he was still dreaming in his sleep.


    "Y-Yang Wei is sleeping on your shoulder, Elder Jing. H-How is that not a big deal to you?" Elder Pao Huang said, hoping his direct words can help Elder Jing understand the current situation.


    It was considered taboo for a sect elder and disciples to have such close intimacy and Elder Pao Huang did not want Elder Jing to be a topic of gossip.


    Although he was afraid of Elder Jing, he also deeply respected her from the bottom of his heart.


    "Elder Jing… I don''t want to be a nosy person but I believe your rtionship with Yang Wei shouldn''t be this close. After all, he''s a disciple in our sect whereas you are the respected sect elder." Elder Pao Huang then said.


    Elder Jing chuckled softly at Elder Pao Haung''s words.


    "Have you ever seen me care about other people''s opinion about me?" Elder Jing asked calmly as she showed a nonchnt expression.


    Elder Pao Huang shook his head and sighed softly. Since he knew Elder Jing was someone who would do something as long as she decided on it, there was no way to change her mind.


    Thus, Elder Pao Huang gave up convincing Elder Jing to stop the ambiguous rtionship with Yang Wei and started rying the information that he came here for.


    "Elder Jing, there are other people seeking help and hoping to live in the cave as well to avoid the demons." Elder Pao Huang said.


    Elder Jing raised her eyebrow slightly as she wondered who was able to find the cave when she concealed it perfectly.


    "Who are these people seeking help. And more importantly, just how did they find this secretive cave?" Elder Jing asked as she ced Yang Wei''s head slowly on the wall to lean on.


    Afterward, she stood up and started tidying up her clothes as she became serious.


    Elder Pao Huang didn''t dare to dy as he quickly said, "It was Elder Pan Cheng and Elder Fang Yunru with their disciplesing in here to seek help. At the same time, they have spotted a demon who started eating and consuming a magical beast when they were dropped from the sky."


    "Drop from the sky?" Elder Jing ignored the part about them seeking help and was instead curious about how they managed to re-appear when she couldn''t sense their presence at all.


    Elder Pao Huang was dazed for a bit before he exined their situation, "Uh- Yes, they have mentioned about reaching the inheritance area but there was nothing but an empty chest. Afterward, they were all teleported outside and the first thing they saw was a demon."


    Elder Jing nodded in understanding and asked, "So where are they currently located?"


    "They are near the entrance as I didn''t allow them to enter further inside since we were the first one here. Of course, they tried to argue but given their current condition, they could only ept my arrangement."


    "Hmm, let''s go meet them then and see how they are faring." Elder Jing smirked as she started walking ahead.


    Elder Pao Huang nodded as he followed closely behind Elder Jing.


    Meanwhile, Yang Wei was still calmly sleeping without realizing that he was left alone.


    Sometimeter, Elder Jing arrived near the entrance and startedughing when she saw Elder Pan Cheng and Elder Fang Yunru''s state that seemed to have crawled out from a graveyard.


    "Didn''t expect two elders from a prominent sect to turn out like this," Elder Jing teased as she calmly walked toward them.


    Elder Fang Yunru kept quiet as he was ashamed to even try to rebuke her words since he was nothing but a disgrace for running away as soon as he spotted a demon.


    Elder Pan Cheng wasn''t any better as he was normally arrogant and prideful but this time, he got nothing else to back up his arrogance.


    Elder Jing sneered when she saw their lifeless expression and said, "So I heard from Elder Pao Huang that you wanted to seek help from us?"


    Elder Fang Yunru and Elder Pan Cheng nced at each other before staring at Elder Jing as they nodded their heads in acknowledgment.


    Currently, demons were scattered everywhere and only Elder Jing''s cave was the safest.


    They wanted to stay here until the end of the mysterious realm where they would be automatically kicked out.


    "P-Please allow us to stay here until the end of the mysterious realm," Elder Fang Yunru gritted his teeth as he begged Elder Jing.


    As much as he wanted to forcefully stay here and wait for the end, he knew Elder Jing was more powerful than him and his condition wasn''t even suitable for another fight.


    Elder Jing remained silent as she tilted her head slightly and nced at Elder Pan Cheng for his response.


    Elder Pan Cheng clenched his fist in anger for a moment before releasing it.


    Afterward, he held a defeated expression and begged as well. "Please let me and my disciples stay here until the end of the mysterious realm."


    Elder Jing smiled briefly as she nodded her head.


    "Letting you stay here isn''t a problem but there must be something that you two must offer. After all, there are no such things as free lunch in the cultivation world."


    Elder Fang Yunru knew it wasn''t going to be easy to stay here but at least Elder Jing didn''t go overboard with her condition.


    Hence, he directly took out his spatial ring and threw it toward Elder Jing.


    "Inside the spatial ring contains multiple rare and unique herbs. Also, there are some spiritual treasures in it so please allow me and my disciples to stay here." Elder Fang Yunru said.


    Elder Jing sensed the items inside the spatial ring and nodded her head. "As expected of Elder Fang Yunru, fast and decisive in his action."


    Afterward, Elder Jing nced at Elder Pan Cheng without speaking at all.


    None of the people here were stupid to not notice what Elder Jing''s stare means.


    Thus, the disciples from the Tyrant Lion Sect stared at Elder Pan Cheng because his decision would decide their life and death.


    If Elder Pan Cheng does not know what to do and gives the wrong answer, they would most likely be kicked out to fend for themselves.


    The chance of survival would be less than 1% because none of them have the energy nor capability to fight a demon, much less multiple demons that were scattered around.


    Elder Pan Cheng twitched his mouth as he realized Elder Jing was a bloodsucking demon as well.


    She was ruthless in her action that can match other scheming men in the cultivation world.


    "Hmph, I will remember this when we get out," Elder Pan Cheng snorted as he threw his spatial ring toward Elder Jing.


    "Thank you for the offering," Elder Jing said once she saw the items contained in the spatial ring.
