Demon Emperor's Defiant Love

“I am just making a suggestion. We don’t necessarily have to use your Red Paper Doll. We just have to use any object with sufficient Yang Qi for this purpose.” Yun Jiuge had only put forward this possibility for their consideration.

Liu Tian’er’s eyes brightened suddenly. She said, “I know of a thing that contains a great deal of Yang Qi.”

“Are you referring to Yang Essence?” As expected, Liu Mei’er and Liu Tian’er were twins. She could read her sister’s mind immediately.

“That’s right.” Liu Tian’er nodded before smiling impishly and saying, “As long as we can collect enough Yang Essence and store it in a Yang Containment Canister, we can definitely attract those little devils.”

“Wait a minute!” Yun Jiuge held up her hand and asked hesitantly, “Please don’t tell me that the Yang Essence that you are talking about is the Yang Essence that’s just crossed my mind!”

“Uh-huh. It is exactly what you think it is!” Liu Tian’er laughed gleefully and said, “Senior Yun Jiu, why don’t you become the first guy to donate your Yang Essence?”

Yun Jiuge thought: Except that I don’t have the male organ you need.

“Cough, cough. Senior, please don’t be offended. She was merely joking.” Liu Mei’er coughed twice, hinting to her younger sister to look at the thousand-year-old Corpse standing behind Yun Jiuge.

Actually, Zi Shang was quite amused by this exchange. However, since he was acting as a thousand-year-old Corpse, he could not show expressions on his face. Therefore, to the Liu Sisters, he always seemed angry.

“That’s right. I was teasing you.” Liu Tian’er straightened her face at once.

It would be extremely reckless of them to flirt with the male partner of a thousand-year-old Corpse.

“I will entrust the two of you with the responsibility of collecting the Yang Essence. After you have an adequate amount of Yang Essence, please notify me.” Yun Jiuge waved them away wearily. She did not want to continue discussing such an explicit topic with the Liu Sisters.

“Senior, don’t worry. You can rest assured that we will accomplish this task!” The Liu Sisters vowed vehemently.

“By the way, you should purchase another two bottles of Rank Two Yin Qi Bottles as spares.” Yun Jiuge planned to maximize their gains.

“Noted.” After the Liu Sisters accepted their assignment, they left and started to work on their tasks with vigor.

Yun Jiuge was about to train herself when Zi Shang suddenly pulled her into his embrace. He winked flirtatiously at her and chuckled, “Do you need me to give you some Yang Essence? I have been accumulating it for some time, waiting to give it to you.”

“Haha. You should keep something so precious to yourself!” Yun Jiuge pushed Zi Shang away and began to train with a focused mind.

While the Liu Sisters were busy gathering the Yang Essence, Yun Jiuge did not laze around.

She brought the White Bone Monkey with her and snuck into the depths of the Yin Qi Graveyard. She managed to pluck plenty of Three Serenities Herb.

After two days, the Liu Sisters had obtained a large canister full of milky white liquid. They went to meet Yun Jiuge.

The lid was carefully designed in a way that the liquid flowed one direction only. When Yun Jiuge looked at it, she felt like a pervert.

“Senior, do you want to inspect it?” Liu Tian’er made a move to open the canister.

“There is no need for that. I trust your judgment.” Yun Jiuge refused to go near that canister of little tadpoles.

“Then, when should we catch the Yin Moths? If we leave this canister of Yang Essence for too long, it will not be fresh anymore.” The Liu Sisters had shed much blood, sweat, and tears to obtain this canister of Yang Essence.

“Let’s go now,” Yun Jiuge stated decisively. She’d decided to head to the Yin Qi Graveyard to kill some Yin Ghosts first. After one o’clock in the morning, they could start catching the Yin Moths.

One hour after midnight, the eerie Yin Qi Graveyard was shrouded with Spectral Aura.

Yun Jiuge perched on the tall locust tree where she had last performed Dual Cultivation with Zi Shang. Beneath her, the terrain was concave. The canister was placed in the middle of the land, surrounded by six White Bone Spurs.

“When the Yin Moths swarm around the Yang Containment Canister, that’s when we will attack. Can you both handle it?” Yun Jiuge looked at the Liu Sisters.

Her plan was straightforward.

When the Yin Moths gathered near the canister, they would use the White Bone Spurs to kill all of them at once. At that time, it would be imperative that the Liu Sisters cooperated with her.

If the White Bone Spurs could not inflict harm on the Yin Moths at the same time, their total damage would be significantly reduced. She was afraid that the Yin Moths would take this opportunity to flee.

“Senior, don’t worry. I can guarantee that none of them will escape from us.” Since the Liu Sisters were twins, they had the innate ability to synchronize their actions. It was not difficult for them at all.

“Then, let’s start!” Yun Jiuge nodded at Liu Mei’er.

Liu Mei’er tossed a Red Paper Doll toward the Yang Containment Canister. The Red Paper Doll opened the canister without any delay.

A faint, foul odor trickled out, exciting the Yi Qi from a distance. A large group of Yin Ghosts lunged for the canister. However, the White Bone Monkey lured them away.

After that, a gray swarm of Yin Moths flew eagerly toward the canister. They were so fast that the speed was terrifying. In the blink of an eye, they entirely covered the Yang Containment Canister.

When Liu Tian’er saw those Yin Moths, it was as if she was looking at many Contribution Points. Her heart filled with excitement.

Liu Mei’er could not stop herself from sending a questioning glance toward Yun Jiuge.

Yun Jiuge shook her head. It was still not enough. They needed more Yin Moths.

When they increased in number to the point that those Yin Moths, which had finally come after some time, were about to leave because they could not smell any more Yin Qi, Yun Jiuge finally nodded.

The Liu Sisters performed a hand gesture simultaneously while reciting an incantation. The six White Bone Spurs emitted blood-red beams, which pierced the Yin Moths with an explosive sound.

The Yin Moths shrieked. In an instant, more than half died from their injuries. The remaining moths scattered, intending to fly away.

Yun Jiuge’s sharp eyes spotted them. She commanded the White Bone Spurs with her deft fingers to kill any that slipped through the net.

They managed to kill more than four hundred Yin Moths in one round. This was just enough to produce one batch of Yin Gathering Pills.

There was still a great deal of Yang Essence remaining in the Yang Containment Canister. They could continue attracting the Yin Moths.

By repeating the same process over and over again, Yun Jiuge and the Liu Sisters killed all night.

The canister of Yang Essence lured two thousand Yin Moths to them in total. Although they were satisfied with the result of their hard work, they were also completely worn out.

While Yun Jiuge was carrying five heavy Yin Qi Bottles, she lavished praise on the Liu Sisters, “You did a great job!”

“Senior, you flatter us.” Although the Liu Sisters enjoyed the compliments, they also knew that they would not have achieved such a result if it hadn’t been for the White Bone Monkey and thousand-year-old Corpse, which had protected them from harm.

“Alright, let’s return to our rooms.” Since they’d used up the Yang Essence and the sun was about to rise, there was no point for them to remain at Yin Qi Graveyard.

The Liu Sisters and Yun Jiuge returned to the residential area together. After they greeted each other good morning, they left for their respective rooms.

Yun Jiuge brought the heavy Yin Qi Bottles back to her room. She was so exhausted that she could not even raise her arm.

However, if she did not refine these Yin Moths immediately, they would be wasted.

She pulled herself together and prepared the furnace to produce pills.

After the Yin Moths were refined into dark grey Yin Qi, the Yin Qi Liquid that was extracted from the Yin Moths was black in color with a thin viscosity. However, if she added the Three Serenities Herb, it would become very sticky.

The Three Serenities Herb had the appearance of a mushroom. There were three rhombi indented with thick, black lines on the ash-colored mushroom head.

The pattern of these three rhombi was actually the essential ingredient for producing Yin Gathering Pills.

Yun Jiuge sliced the pattern of the three rhombi from the mushrooms and threw them into the Yin Qi Liquid. The thin Yin Qi Liquid became viscous immediately.

After she prepared the ingredients, Yun Jiuge poured the thick, medicinal liquid into a small bronze cauldron.

The production of Yin Gathering Pills required exceptional fire control skills. It was very easy for those with no experience to fail. However, it was a piece of cake for Yun Jiuge.

She only spent a total of two hours producing the Yin Gathering Pills from the medicinal liquid.

Ten batches of Yin Gathering Pills meant a total of three hundred pills. The pills were dull in color. Although they did not look attractive, they definitely contained a high concentration of Yin Qi.

Yun Jiuge stared at the Yin Gathering Pills and sighed, “Every time I think about how these Yin Moths were lured by Yang Essence, I feel like throwing up.”

Disgusting as it was, she had to tolerate it for the sake of her cultivation.
