Seven Deadly Sins System

Chu Wuyao picked up Xia Qianyue and Li Ruoshi, and after she said goodbye to Xia Qianyue and left her in a nearby city, she didn't hesitate any longer and chose to finally leave the area that was under the Sword Palace's jurisdiction and return to the Original Desire Sect.

This was partly because she wanted to break through the Awakening Realm as soon as possible, and partly because she knew that the death of Jiang Chen and the other disciples of the Sword Palace was bound to attract the attention of the Sword Palace.

With her God Clone having to fight against the consciousness inside the Godhead and being unable to take action, Chu Wuyao wasn't willing to take unnecessary risks and stay here.

After all, although she believed that she would be able to escape if she were to face Supernatural Realm cultivators, she couldn't be 100% certain.

As one of the major forces of the Cultivation World and a sect that had a Transcending Tribulation Realm cultivator in charge, the Original Desire Sect had always been filled with disciples and was a place that every cultivator wished to enter.

Yet now, the sect was mostly silent and the atmosphere was very strange, reflecting the low mood of the sect's disciples.

The Outer and Inner Areas where the outer and inner disciples resided were still filled with people, but compared to the previous lively scenes, the differences were fairly obvious.

Such a situation was quite normal.

After all, in such a short time, thousands of outer and inner disciples had died.

At first, there was the sect competition, where many outer disciples either died under the murderous intent of their fellow disciples, or became nourishment of the Lord of Corruption, and then, there was the event of the Inheritance World, which was even more bloody.

Only a few disciples who entered the Inheritance World were able to survive, and from those who did, only a few escaped the subsequent chase of the Awakening Realm cultivators.

By now, it was hard for the remaining disciples to feel safe, and they had to wonder whether they would be next.

Thinking of this, the face of Peng Zhang, who sat at the entrance of the Inner Area, couldn't help but become gloomy.

Peng Zhang was one of the few outer disciples who survived the sect competition, and afterward, he was lucky enough to get a few opportunities and break through the Shackles Realm.

Normally, he should have been very happy with his speed of progress, a speed that he had always dreamed about.

Yet, Peng Zhang couldn't be happy.

"I don't know if the Original Desire Sect can survive or if it will be disbanded. I heard that many senior brothers and sisters from the Inner Area have chosen to leave the Original Mountain and travel outside...", he thought, and he was a little envious.

He also wanted to leave this place where danger might come the very next minute.

Unfortunately, because of his low strength and status, he didn't have the chance to do so and could only stay here to guard the entrance of the Inner Area.

Peng Zhang had fallen into deep thought and was slightly absent-minded when the sound of gentle footsteps suddenly echoed in his ears, jolting him awake.

He raised his head to look at the source of the footsteps, only to find that it was a white-haired young woman.

Peng Zhang could recognize most inner disciples despite the fact that he had only been an inner disciple for a short time, but he discovered that he couldn't recognize this woman.

"Stop! Only inner disciples and those with special permission are allowed to enter!", he spoke in a loud voice, giving the woman a warning.

But to his surprise, the young woman didn't stop nor respond, as if she didn't notice him at all.

When he saw this, Peng Zhang raised his hand, deciding to take action and stop her.

After all, if someone were to step into the Inner Area without permission and they was discovered, he would be held responsible by the sect.

Thinking of this, the Mana inside his body surged and he was about to cast a skill, but just then, the woman who was previously ignoring him raised her head and looked at him.

Peng Zhang's hunched figure was reflected in her gray eyes, and as Peng Zhang stared at them, he was shocked to discover that his soul began trembling.

His body immediately felt cold, as if a snowstorm had fallen on him, and his vision became blurry, while his throat became sore and made him unable to breathe.

Cold sweat formed on his forehead and back, and his intuition warned him of danger, urging him to escape as soon as possible.

"No! I can't die yet! I have only now become an inner disciple! I have a bright future ahead of me!", Peng Zhang roared in his mind, and wanted to break free of the woman's oppression, but no matter how hard he tried, he found that it was impossible.

His eyes became desperate and he felt that his death was near, but as if she had been satisfied with his reaction, the woman turned around and stepped forward, walking into the Inner Area.

With the previous experience, Peng Zhang no longer dared to stop her.

Instead, he cupped his hands and bowed towards her direction.

"Senior, I'm sorry. It's my fault for disturbing you.", he said respectfully, while he worked hard to suppress his inner turmoil.

He remained in this position even after he spoke, and it was only when the woman had completely disappeared that Peng Zhang finally got up.

"Who is she? I've met a few quasi-core disciples before but they were incomparable to her. Is that woman a core disciple?", he thought as he kept taking deep breaths, trying to calm himself down.

At the same time, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

He was originally a little proud to have broken through the Shackles Realm and believed that his future was bright, but just now, he discovered that the truly powerful cultivators could wipe him out with just a thought.

On the other hand, Chu Wuyao didn't know nor care about the thoughts of a mere inner disciple.

Walking through the Inner Area, she immediately noticed the changes in the Original Desire Sect, but she wasn't surprised.

She had already taken a walk in the Outer Area before coming here and had roughly understood the situation of the sect during her leave.

Of course, she had learned that many disciples had left and had heard of the rumors about the disbandment of the sect.

But unlike the other outer and inner disciples, Chu Wuyao wasn't worried at all.

She knew very well that the death of a few outer and inner disciples would not affect the sect at all.

As long as the Sect Leader, the Transcending Tribulation Realm cultivator, and the Original Desire Cauldron were still there, the Original Desire Sect would still be a major force.

She had already noticed during her walk that many new outer disciples had already been recruited, while many outer disciples had broken through the Shackles Realm and became inner disciples, replacing the disciples who died during the event of the Inheritance World.

Chu Wuyao strongly suspected that the higher-ups in the sect should be responsible for these changes and that they allowed some disciples to get some opportunities to break through, replacing the cannon fodder that had previously died.

While she thought of this, Chu Wuyao didn't stop her footsteps, and before long, she had arrived at her residence.

"It seems that the sect has some way to check the statues of the disciples.", she thought as she looked at her residence, slightly surprised that nobody had occupied it yet.

Of course, she wouldn't complain.

Pushing open the door, she walked inside, and after making sure that no one had come in during this time, she waved her hand.

The next moment, a figure appeared beside her.

The figure was a woman with pinkish-white hair and scarlet eyes, and an appearance exactly the same as Chu Wuyao.

Obviously, it was her Devil Clone, the clone that she had almost forgotten about.

Chu Wuyao didn't communicate with her clone but nodded slightly, before climbing down a staircase and walking into her cultivation room.

Without needing her instructions, the Devil Clone also followed her and stood outside the room as if it was guarding her.

Seeing this, Chu Wuyao sat on the floor and closed her eyes, adjusting her condition and preparing to break through.

Although she knew that breaking through the Awakening Realm should be very easy with her accumulation, Chu Wuyao felt that there was no need to rush and chose to calm herself down first.

At the same time, slightly curious, she brought up her system panel, wanting to take a look at her latest changes.
