  As for the girl on the right, she looked more mature but with the same pure and beautiful appearance as the other girl.

  However, Ning Cheng knew it very well that neither of the two women was pure and innocent. The mature-looking girl on the right was the younger one, while the naive looking girl on the left, the one who looked like a porcelain doll, was actually the ancestor of the girl on the right.

  He knew both women, the woman on the left was Xu Binglan, and the woman on the right was Xu Yingdei. Xu Binglan was the founder and progenitor of the Severing Emotions Dao Sect, a sect of perversions and the same faction that nurtured Xu Anzhen and Xu Yingdei. So perverted, that people refused to comprehend it.

  When Ning Cheng’s gaze fell on Xu Binglan’s face, he didn’t speak a word for a long time as Yu Qing’s figure had suddenly appeared in front of his eyes. Back then, when he had first seen Xu Binglan at this place, and because of the uncanny resemblance between Xu Binglan and Xu Yingdei, he had gone into a daze unable to find an excuse to get out of this situation. But at that very moment, Yu Qing helped him out. “Replying to senior, this is my friend Ning Cheng. We were supposed to meet here.”

  This place remained the same, and that person also remained the same, but Yu Qing was the only one missing.

  Why didn’t Xu Binglan go missing instead of her?

  As for Xu Yingdei, she never expected to see Ning Cheng here. She had chosen him to sever her emotions and had presumed him dead back then. However, this man did not die. He not only managed to keep his life, he even came to the starry sky and even seemed to know his grandmother[1], Xu Binglan.

  No one knew that she truly had fallen in love with Ning Cheng. Back then, if not for Yin Kongchan’s sudden and abrupt appearance, she would have already become Ning Cheng’s woman. If she had become Ning Cheng’s woman, she would have never used Ning Cheng to sever her emotions. But nothing of that sort happened, which doomed everything to oblivion.

  She kept staring at Ning Cheng, the man she once liked, the man who she used to sever her emotions[2].

  In the Severing Emotions Dao Sect, it would already be a miracle for a man who experienced emotion severing to even stay alive, let alone grow strong enough to enter the starry skies. But Ning Cheng might have been the first, perhaps the only one.

  However, no one knew that when she learned that Ning Cheng and her master Shi Qionghua became Dao Companions, it had caused extreme jealousy and torment to erupt from the depths of her heart. Regardless of her man dying or not under her, she couldn’t bear the idea of another woman holding him.

  “Little Dei, do you know him?” Since Xu Binglan could enter the void, and as the progenitor of her sect, how could she be a simple person? Therefore, when she looked at Xu Yingdei’s eyes, she instantly understood that Xu Yingdei knew Ning Cheng.

  Xu Yingdei spoke up with a dry voice, “Yes, he was the man I used for my emotion-severing.”

  “Oh, with my Xu Clan’s woman, yet daring to sleep with other sluts, you kid, sure are something.” Xu Binglan raised her eyebrows, and her porcelain doll-like face showed a trace of anger.

  Ning Cheng’s tone suddenly turned cold, “Xu Binglan, originally, I only had a hatred for Xu Yingdei and Xu Anzhen. But if you dare say even half a disrespectful word about her[3], this father wouldn’t mind turning you into ashes.”

  “Hehe, this Xu Binglan wants to see how you would turn me into ashes… Believe it or not, even if I killed you here in Lucky Heaven City, nothing would happen to me at all.” While talking, Xu Binglan’s murderous aura also started to spread out. Almost like a blade about to come out of its sheath.

  Ning Cheng didn’t respond. Back then, Xu Binglan’s cultivation originally was at the Celestial Bridge Realm, but she managed to advance to the Undead Realm by now. Presumably, in her opinion, it would only be a matter of a few moments to kill an ‘ant’ like him.

  “Sister Lan…. Don’t kill him.” Xu Yingdei anxiously stopped Xu Binglan.

  Xu Binglan looked at Xu Yingdei in surprise and asked, “Why not kill him? This man did not die under your emotion severing. I don’t mind if you pity him, but this man dared to sleep with other women and even protected other women…..”

  “Sister Lan?” Ning Cheng looked at Xu Binglan and Xu Yingdei in surprise. Just how many generations separated them, why did she call her ‘Sister Lan’?

  “Ning Cheng, let’s talk about it in private. I have a few words to say to you.” Xu Yingdei looked at Ning Cheng and spoke with a soft voice.

  Ning Cheng only glanced at Xu Yingdei with disdain before calmly replying, “A perverted sect indeed only brings up perverted women.”

  “Ant looking for death….” Xu Binglan’s killing intent burst out. However, before her killing intent and domain could press down on Ning Cheng, they suddenly disappeared.

  Then, her angry expression suddenly turned into a soft, lovable smile as she took a few steps forward and spoke, “What brings the Heavenly Emperor here?”

  She could see that Striking Order Heavenly Emperor had come here in a hurry. But in any case, she had to first greet Striking Order Heavenly Emperor.

  Striking Order Heavenly Emperor apparently saw that she wanted to deal with Ning Cheng; therefore, he immediately slapped Xu Binglan’s face the moment she looked up, “Get lost, Sect Master Ning is my most honourable guest. Yet, a woman like you dares to act with such disrespect. If you don’t apologise to Sect Master Ning immediately, you better end yourself quickly.”

  Striking Order Heavenly Emperor’s words came with absolute authority; it even contained a hint of chill.

  Ning Cheng sighed in his heart on hearing those words. He could tell that Striking Order Heavenly Emperor had a soft spot for Xu Binglan. Otherwise, with Striking Order Heavenly Emperor’s nature, Xu Binglan would have already died. Why would he just slap Xu Binglan and force her to apologise to him?

  Xu Binglan and Xu Yingdei stood still as if time had frozen for them. They never expected Striking Order Heavenly Emperor to attach so much importance to Ning Cheng. He even explicitly mentioned that Ning Cheng was his ‘most honourable guest’. From this, they could tell that Striking Order Heavenly Emperor had hurried over to this place to greet Ning Cheng especially.

  Just what was going on?

  [1]

  I’m not completely sure if it’s ‘grandmother’ or ‘maternal ancestor’ here. But since the author makes several references to Xu Binglan being Xu Yingdei’s grandmother in the future chapters, I decided to use it here, instead of using ancestor.

  [2]

  Some people had previously asked me if ‘desires’ would be an appropriate term here instead of ‘emotions’, but ‘severing emotions’ here refers to the part about cutting off the ‘seven emotions’ out of the ‘seven emotions and six desires’ that every human is born with. It’s the main reason why the women from Severing Emotions Dao Sect look and feel so cold and detached, yet have an insatiable sex drive after cutting off their emotions.

  [3]

  Just to be clear, ‘her’ here refers to ‘Shi Qionghua’.

  Xu Binglan reacted faster than Xu Yingdei did. Despite Striking Order Heavenly Emperor slapping her, she quickly came up and bowed to Ning Cheng, “This Binglan spoke inappropriately just now. I hope Big Brother Ning would find it in his heart to forgive me. This Binglan is willing to accept any punishment; even if Big Brother Ning asks for Binglan to die, this Binglan will not hesitate.”

  By the time she finished speaking those words, her expression had changed to a look of regret and horror. Combined with her already beautiful and innocent-looking face, it truly made people feel pity for her.

  After apologising to Ning Cheng, she didn’t stop there; she turned around and started cryi
ng silently in front of Striking Order Heavenly Emperor. “This Binglan brought shame to the Heavenly Emperor’s name and asks the Heavenly Emperor to punish her. Because Big Brother Ning was once Little Dei’s Dao Companion, I wanted to stop him from holding Little Dei responsible, so….”

  Ning Cheng felt speechless. Looks like this woman truly had no shame at all. However, he also knew that he couldn’t deal with Xu Yingdei right away. He and Striking Order were currently in the testing phase of their ‘friendship’. At this time, if he did anything to Xu Yingdei, even if Striking Order remained silent today, it would be equivalent to slapping Striking Order’s face in public.

  With Striking Order’s calculating character, if an ordinary woman had dared to treat him this way, Striking Order would have killed her long before giving her the chance to talk, rather than just slapping Xu Binglan and letting her apologise. From this, he could also tell that Striking Order Heavenly Emperor felt very concerned about Xu Binglan. Moreover, with the Mysterious Yellow Celestial River just established, not only did Striking Order need him as an ally, but he also required Striking Order as an ally.

  When Striking Order heard Xu Binglan’s words, his eyes flashed in surprise. He already had a thing going on with Xu Binglan. But if Xu Binglan’s sister Xu Yingdei and Ning Cheng could rekindle that flame, wouldn’t they come even closer?

  Seeing that Striking Order wanted to speak, Ning Cheng quickly guessed the intentions and immediately stopped him, “Brother Striking Order, let’s go in and talk.”

  He and Striking Order thought of the same thing. But he didn’t want to voice those words in front of these two, lest they got some ideas. Besides, he would flat out reject Striking Order Heavenly Emperor’s offer. Regardless of what thoughts Striking Order had in his mind, now that he stopped Striking Order from raising the matter openly, it was much better than rejecting it outright.

  As a Heavenly Emperor, playing around with women was quite a regular thing. Besides, why would he willingly refuse a chance to ‘deepen’ friendships by using such women? It’s just that Striking Order didn’t understand much about Ning Cheng’s personality.

  However, Striking Order Heavenly Emperor controlled the Striking Order Starry Sky for many years. Therefore, as soon as Ning Cheng spoke those words, he immediately understood that Ning Cheng had thought nothing of Xu Yingdei. Because of this, Striking Order didn’t mention it again. Showing a smile, he spoke up, “Yes, yes, let’s go in and talk. Brother Ning, please….”

  Having said that, Striking Order Heavenly Emperor led the way and personally escorted Ning Cheng inside.

  “Little Dei, what’s going on?” Xu Binglan finally asked in a shocked voice, looking at Ning Cheng and Striking Order Heavenly Emperor’s backs.

  “I don’t know either.” Xu Yingdei was also at a complete loss. She also couldn’t figure out what was going on. Even if Ning Cheng grew powerful, reaching a level where Striking Order Heavenly Emperor addressed him as a ‘brother’, shouldn’t be possible, right?

  Xu Binglan’s expression turned heavy, pulling Xu Yingdei to a remote corner, she asked her again, “What is Ning Cheng’s origin? Don’t you know anything about it?”

  Xu Yingdei hesitated for a while before speaking, “He is a bit mysterious and has always been strong. The Forsaken Land had sealed Yin Kongchan and my cultivation, we couldn’t even stretch out our spiritual consciousness, but he could. He always seemed to have some means to utilise whenever in danger, which I couldn’t grasp at all.”

  After Xu Binglan heard Xu Yingdei’s words, she frowned, and only spoke up after a while, “This kid definitely has a huge secret on him. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be possible for Striking Order Heavenly Emperor to not only address him but also treat him as brothers. Strangely, with Striking Order Heavenly Emperor’s character, he didn’t use any hard tactics to look into him. Instead, he’s actually using such a method…..”

  Xu Binglan looked she was talking to herself. Only after a long time did she raise her head. She stared at Xu Yingdei, and spoke with a quivering voice, “Striking Order definitely is not a kind-hearted man, nor is he a person influenced by feelings. For him to treat Ning Cheng this way, the only possibility is that…..”

  Xu Yingdei also understood Xu Binglan’s implication, and spoke up in disbelief, “This, this shouldn’t be the case, right? How long has he been in the starry sky?”

  “What’s not possible? I know Striking Order, that old sack, too well. If I couldn’t please him in bed, that son-of-a-bitch would have certainly killed me today. Ning Cheng has to be on the same level of power as him if not higher, it’s the only explanation to his attitude towards Ning Cheng. At the very least, Ning Cheng is as powerful as he is. For Ning Cheng to reach the level of strength no less than Striking Order, this Ning Cheng definitely is a monster……”

  The more Xu Binglan spoke, the brighter the light grew in her eyes.

  Xu Yingdei recalled the strength showcased by Ning Cheng in Graceful Star Mainland, and somewhat started to believe in her ancestor’s speculations and muttered, “It’s also possible that he was already powerful during his time in Graceful Star Mainland. He not only destroyed a major sect, and strengthened the Rainbow Fall Sword Sect, he also killed his way into our Severing Emotions Dao Sect, challenged the Heaven Alliance, and eventually reached the point that no one would even dare to get in his way…..”

  “He killed his way into my Severing Emotions Dao Sect?” Xu Binglan looked at Xu Yingdei in amazement.

  Xu Yingdei couldn’t keep it hidden anymore, and spoke about it, “Yes, he not only killed his way into the Severing Emotions Dao Sect, but he also successfully managed to get out…..”

  The root cause of this incident was Xu Yingdei herself. Back then, she had truly fallen in love with Ning Cheng and had even wished to give up her little life to Ning Cheng. If she had not left the Forsaken Lands, she believed that she and Ning Cheng would have already become husband and wife. But unfortunately, fate itself didn’t want her together with Ning Cheng. When she was about to consummate with Ning Cheng, Yin Kongchan had suddenly interrupted them, and eventually, the three of them came out of the Forsaken Land. But because of the cultivation method she practised, she could not hesitate to perform emotion severing on Ning Cheng the moment they came out.

  She didn’t say this before, but she really didn’t want to kill Ning Cheng after successfully completing the emotion severing, which was why she had left.

  “You really are stupid. Why did you use Ning Cheng for emotion severing? You should have taken hold of him. If you had taken control of his heart, how could we be so miserable now? I have to take off my clothes to sleep with others, and use various means to please them, yet what does it bring us? People can still slap us around, force me to apologise.” Xu Binglan’s tone grew worse with each word she spoke.

  Xu Yingdei weakly spoke up, “I was at the tipping point of emotion severing. If I hadn’t performed the emotion severing, it would have become tough for me to make any progress, even if I gave in to him later.”

  “Bah, emotion severing, severing those damn emotions, you had a good man right in front of you, and you still felt afraid that you wouldn’t find a better cultivation method than that?” Xu Binglan cursed a few times under her breath and spoke with a gloomy voice.

  Xu Yingdei mumbled in her heart

  ‘wasn’t this cultivation left behind by you?’

  But how could she dare to talk back?

  Xu Binglan remained angry for a long time before she suddenly said, “Little Dei, maybe you can go and rekindle things with him, maybe he will……”

  Xu Yingdei didn’t wait for Xu Binglan to finish and immediately shook her head, “It’s impossible. I know a little about him, he eats soft food but refuses hard food[1]. It would be even more impossible with a woman who betrayed him. If I hadn’t protected him with my life a few times in that place, then even if I took off my clothes right in front of him, he wouldn’t show even the slightest of temptation
or care.”

  Xu Binglan grabbed Xu Yingdei’s hand and eagerly said, “It doesn’t matter, I will teach you some skills that will make his little man not want to stop. You saw how proud and arrogant Striking Order is, yet didn’t I put him under me? If not for that, he definitely would have killed me today.”

  Xu Yingdei just shook her head and didn’t speak. Instead, she suddenly found a renewed hate for Yin Kongchan. If it weren’t for Yin Kongchan, she would have been Ning Cheng’s woman right now.

  Seeing Xu Yingdei not speaking, Xu Binglan spoke with an almost feverish tone, “Maybe I should go take the lead first. I don’t believe that he would remain indifferent under my means…..”

  “Ah….” Xu Yingdei looked at Xu Binglan in shock. She couldn’t believe what Xu Binglan just said. She was the founder of Severing Emotions Dao Sect;

  did she truly have no shame?

  Seeing Xu Binglan about to say something, Xu Yingdei resolutely shook her head. If she let Xu Binglan continue, she might just come up with even more outrageous ideas. “I would rather die. I won’t do it.”

  Seeing Xu Yingdei’s firm refusal, the frantic look in Xu Binglan’s eyes disappeared, and she gave a sigh, “In that case, we need to leave this place. If we continue to stay in Striking Order Starland, it truly will become a dead-end for us. Striking Order Heavenly Emperor is a ruthless person. The only reason he didn’t kill me right away is that he still has some affection towards me. In the future, he might actually decide to kill us to please that person surnamed Ning. Only when our cultivation reaches the Eternal Realm can we return and talk about revenge.”

  Xu Yingdei looked in the direction Ning Cheng left and murmured after a long time, “Let’s leave.”

  She understood what Xu Binglan wanted to say. If the two did not leave immediately, they would definitely face death in the future. For people like Striking Order Heavenly Emperor, killing people like the two of them was as easy as killing an ant.
