Two Realms Shuttle Gate: Don t Call Me a Demon!

Chapter 82: Chapter 80: Ning Xinyue (Please Follow)

After finishing all this, Su Jie continued his inspection, sparing no criticism for the disciples who were carelessly performing their duties.

Soon, all the disciples stationed on the Third Level of the cabin knew there was a superior who liked to reprimand them.

As Su Jie went on with his corrections, he reached the end of the cabin and saw a sealed single cabin.

The door of the cabin was covered with a layer of frost that sealed it with ice, the cold air freezing the surrounding walls as the white frost made Su Jie tighten his clothes.

“That Amber Girl, huh!”

Muttered Su Jie. Since the Third Level cabin was closest to the bottom of the ship and Xu Yihu lived in the upper level, he had thrown her into this most marginal cabin to imprison her in order to keep the chill emitted by the Ice Crystal Amber from disturbing his rest.

“I wonder what her story is.”

Shaking his head, Su Jie turned to leave, planning to check if the other disciples had corrected their behavior according to his rules.

But as Su Jie had just taken a few steps away, an unusual sensation of being watched arose in his heart.

“Hmm?”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Su Jie quickly turned back, the ice-sealed door flashed, and an icy crystal butterfly retreated back into the crack of the door.

“Interesting.”

After thinking for a moment, and seeing no one around, Su Jie left a Reconnaissance Dragonfly on guard and walked toward the ice-sealed door.

The closer he got, the more a chill eroded his organs.

Su Jie extended his right hand, and the Thousand-Handed Centipede wriggled out from his sleeve, with several pale corpse hands exerting force to smash the layer of ice.

Pushing open the door, Su Jie went in alone.

The room was only about one hundred square feet. In the center, a girl with bright eyes and white teeth was sealed within the Ice Crystal Amber, her body curled up, eyes closed, seemingly completely dead.

Even through the thick Ice Crystal Amber, Su Jie still felt a strong wave of Spiritual Radiance. The clothes, shoes, necklace, and earrings she wore were all emitting this ripple, none of them ordinary items.

Circling the Ice Crystal Amber, Su Jie tapped it with his finger, and the next moment his hand jerked back as if electrocuted. The Ice Crystal Amber had nearly frozen his blood solid.

“Tch, such a cold sleeping beauty. Is she alive or dead? She can’t breathe in there, can she?”

After studying for a moment, Su Jie breathed on the part of the Ice Crystal covering the girl’s cheeks and used the Thousand-Handed Centipede as a hand warmer, rubbing it on the ice to get a clearer view, wanting to see if she was dead or alive.

Sizzle!

The Thousand-Handed Centipede shivered and curled up, clinging tightly to Su Jie’s palm, squeaking in protest against Su Jie’s inhumane act.

Su Jie leaned closer, observing the girl in the Ice Crystal Amber who had her eyes tightly shut.

Her facial features were delicate and her skin was as white as snow, with slightly curved eyelashes and a hint of playfulness, yet also a faint shyness around her eyes and brow.

The air was very quiet, and as Su Jie stared for several minutes, the girl did not even flutter her eyelashes, apparently completely unconscious.

“Looks like she really is dead, how boring.”

Su Jie shook his head and sighed as he pounded his knees. Two pale arms grew out from his waist, hit the ground, and mimicked the footsteps of a walking person as they stepped one by one toward the door.

At last, he walked out of the room, the two arms also conveniently closing the door behind him.

Bang!

The room fell into silence, with only the chill spreading through the air.

Several more minutes passed, and inside the Ice Crystal Amber, the girl’s eyelashes trembled slightly, followed by her moist, bright eyes slowly opening.

“Yah!”

The girl’s eyes widened, like a startled deer, thinking the room was empty when in reality, there was a man staring at her with a half-smile.

“Yo, I thought you were dead. Turns out you were just pretending to be asleep!”

Su Jie stroked his chin and chuckled lightly, “She’s still too green, duped so easily.”

“You’re the one who’s dead, tricking me like that.”

The girl wrinkled her nose, her crisp voice coming through the Ice Crystal—surprisingly, she could still make gestures and facial expressions inside it.

“What is your name?”

Su Jie sat on the ground, in no hurry to leave, as the girl before him clearly came from no ordinary background.

“Why should I tell you?”

The girl had a fierce expression, but it didn’t scare anyone. Instead, it seemed somewhat cute.

Su Jie raised an eyebrow, pretending to stand up, “Not telling, huh? Well then, I might just inform the others so we can figure out how to break your little ‘turtle shell.'”

At these words, the girl immediately became anxious and shouted, “Wait, my name is Ning Xinyue, there, I told you, what do you really want?”

Su Jie pointed to himself and asked, “Do you know who I am?”

“A villain, a thug, a filthy kidnapper!”

Ning Xinyue blurted out a string of words that could infuriate anyone.

“Ha, ha, all you said is correct, but still not quite accurate. My official title is a demon cultivator who has killed countless people. Now, do you understand what I want?”

Su Jie sneered twice, unintentionally revealing a murderous aura that was enough to silence a crying child.

“You want to rob… rob me of my… my dignity…”

It was clear that Ning Xinyue was truly frightened, her pale face tightly clutching her own collar.

“Wrong!”

Su Jie shook his finger, correcting Ning Xinyue’s mistaken assumption, and said, “You must come from a major cultivation power, right? Share the Cultivation Techniques you know, and I will keep your awakening a secret. Otherwise… right now, this ship is surrounded by demon cultivators. If they discover you’re awake, they will use every means to capture you, and then you’ll really be in trouble.”

Ning Xinyue’s clothes and jewelry all sparkled with a spiritual charm, characteristics of someone from a significant power and likely of no ordinary status.

“You promise you’ll keep your word?”

Biting her tender lips, Ning Xinyue appeared visibly relieved upon hearing that Su Jie wasn’t after her body, and showed little resistance to his request.

“Of course, I am very trustworthy.”

“A demon cultivator’s trustworthiness?”

“Do you have a choice right now?”

Su Jie’s remarks made Ning Xinyue realize the direness of her situation, reluctantly parting her lips slightly.

“Fine, I’ll tell you, but don’t blame me if you can’t remember it yourself. This is called the Mysterious Shadow Secret Technique, which is based on the principle of yin and yang, initiating the bright path, naturally flowing, hidden within the Heavenly Guardian Technique, requiring golden threads to weave veins, winding silk into wind…”

Su Jie took out paper and pencil, jotting down everything Ning Xinyue said. Besides just the spoken words, he had Ning Xinyue explain the detailed pathways and related nodes.

After recording everything, which amounted to thousands of words, and listening to Ning Xinyue explain it once more, Su Jie released the Thousand-Handed Centipede for protection and said, “I’ll try it first. If something’s wrong, see this? This Three Refinement Poisonous Insect, don’t blame me…”

“Humph, I’m not like you, I have no interest in deceiving others.”

Ning Xinyue was very haughty, clearly holding a grudge about the earlier deception by Su Jie.

After checking the Reconnaissance Dragonfly and confirming no one was approaching, Su Jie sat cross-legged and attempted to cultivate the Mysterious Shadow Secret Technique Magic Skill Ning Xinyue had just taught him.

No sooner had he begun than his shadow abruptly lengthened, his chest felt stifled, spiritual power within him became chaotic, and a trickle of blood seeped from the corner of his mouth.

Ning Xinyue was dumbfounded, staring bewilderedly at Su Jie, wondering if she had somehow relayed the Cultivation Technique incorrectly.

A moment later, Ning Xinyue finally understood what was happening and couldn’t help but burst into laughter, tears streaming down her face:

“Hahaha, what kind of cultivation aptitude is this! You actually made yourself vomit blood, so silly, so silly!”
