From the Heavens Descended an Immortal Sister

A moment later, Jian Qi'er was the first to break the silence, saying, "I've cultivated a technique that can conceal my aura. Ordinary Cultivators can't sense the presence of my True Qi."

"What cultivation technique can hide one's Realm?" Fang Ren was still somewhat surprised. He had never heard of such a technique on Earth.

"Even if I told you, you wouldn't understand. It's complicated and unique to our organization," Jian Qi'er glanced at him and continued, "What about you? How do you hide your cultivation level?"

"I simply took a type of pill that, unless I use True Qi, won't reveal my cultivation level," Fang Ren said.

"If I'm not mistaken, did you refine that pill yourself?" Jian Qi'er asked.

"Indeed."

Fang Ren nodded. There was really no point in hiding such things, especially since Jian Qi'er had known many of his secrets for a long time but had never revealed them to anyone.

Even the fact that Wang Shuai had been turned into a vegetative state was surely something Jian Qi'er was well aware of.

Since Jian Qi'er had not publicized the incident of Wang Shuai becoming vegetative, nor had she been heard spreading the word about the Space Ring or the pills, up until now.

Including the moment he suddenly entered and Jian Qi'er held her long sword to his neck, only to immediately withdraw it and ease the hostility on her face upon seeing him.

All of this could at least prove that Jian Qi'er held no ill will towards him.

Seeing him nod, Jian Qi'er spoke up, "You're too secretive. I never would have guessed that apart from alchemy and crafting, you were also a Cultivator. Although your cultivation talent doesn't seem very good, you're a genius when it comes to alchemy and crafting."

"Who's being secretive?" Fang Ren retorted, "If I hadn't come in just now, I probably never would have known that you're a formidable Practitioner or about your other identities."

"I wouldn't have kept it from you forever. Even if you hadn't run into me today, I would have found an opportunity to reveal my identity to you," Jian Qi'er said with a smile.

"What, you feel it's unfair to know my secrets without telling me yours, so you decided to tell me?"

"No, it's just that your abilities are so strong that I had no choice but to get close to you, and eventually, I had to disclose my own identity," she explained.

"Talk about hurting feelings? It's not that serious. Just speak the truth," Fang Ren's expression calmed, and shaking his head, he replied, "I treated you as a casual friend. If you came to me, we interacted; if not, we didn't. My circle of friends wouldn't be any less without you, and with you, I just have one more buddy to chat nonsense with.

I don't think any purpose of yours in approaching me would hurt my feelings."

"But our relationship may not be as simple as just casual friends who chat nonsense," Jian Qi'er said, "I believe we can become confidants, or comrades in life and death, or we might become complete strangers, or even enemies."

"I don't understand what you're saying," Fang Ren replied, visibly displeased after hearing her words, "I think being casual chat friends is pretty good. You didn't tell me your secret after finding out about mine, which I don't mind, since you haven't done anything harmful to me.

However, from your words just now, it seems like you had an ulterior motive in approaching me, and even talked about possibly becoming enemies, which I find very off-putting."

"Of course, I don't wish for us to become enemies, but I just mentioned it as a possibility. And even if we did become adversaries, I wouldn't aim to take your life," Jian Qi'er stated.

"Explain why," Fang Ren demanded.

"Because your abilities can cause the Human Race to advance far too much," Jian Qi'er revealed.

"Have you already thoroughly investigated me?" Fang Ren asked, somewhat annoyed. He had not planned to reveal his identity as Qing'an to the public yet, having told only Liu Qianqian.

"Indeed," Jian Qi'er nodded.

Actually, she did not know about Qing'an's identity, she only knew Fang Ren was the young master of the Tianjiang Fang Family.

"You just said that even if we were enemies, you wouldn't kill me. So can I interpret that to mean, that just because I have the ability to significantly advance human knowledge on Alchemy, I can do whatever I want over your hatred, and you still can't kill me?" Fang Ren said, "After all, I can make a great contribution to humanity, so sacrificing your personal hatred is trivial, right?"

Jian Qi'er looked at him and paused for a moment before frowning and speaking, "That's not it, the enemies I spoke of are merely enemies due to different stances and not because we have any deep-seated hatred towards each other."

Fang Ren nodded and said, "I thought your thinking was the same as those people—that for the progress of human society, you'd ignore all consequences, even your own hatred and other emotions. Those people disgust me to the core."

After listening to him, a smile appeared on Jian Qi'er's beautiful face as she said, "What you're referring to is the mainstream ideology of this era, advocated by the Central District Command. They promote that all humans should achieve the goal of breaking through the Void to protect humanity at any cost.

It seems that you've already come into contact with people of that tier, and I don't want you to be assimilated by their ideology, because then we wouldn't become enemies."

"Why would I be assimilated by their ideology?" Fang Ren couldn't understand, saying, "Why should I accept such an ideology that sacrifices part of people's emotions and even their happiness for so-called human race progress?"

"I think so too," Jian Qi'er said with a smile, "After all, in their eyes, the Xuan Nv can only be with Song Mobei of the Tiandao Sword Sect, so you should feel nothing but hatred towards their ideology."

"Currently, it's not hatred to the extent of wanting to take a life, at this moment I only want to crush their viewpoints," Fang Ren said.

Jian Qi'er's smile grew wider, "I think we'll definitely be allies, if not allies then soulmates, and definitely not enemies."

"Give me a reason."

"Our organization's goals are the same as yours, we also want to crush their viewpoint, at all costs," Jian Qi'er said, "Though their ideas might sound right in the current era of Void species invasion, behind this so-called 'at all costs', how many people have sacrificed their lives?

We believe that humans, by virtue of being born human, should have human rights, even if the invasion of the Void species threatens the entire race, each person still has the right to choose their own life."

After listening, Fang Ren paused for a while before speaking, "Although I don't know what your organization is, it sounds quite appealing."

"Since we share the same goal, are you interested in our organization?" Jian Qi'er said with a smile.

"You could tell me about it," Fang Ren said.

"You might be shocked when I say it out loud, and there's one more thing I've been hiding from you." As Jian Qi'er spoke, she took out the Space Ring from her pocket and put it on her finger, smiling, "I'm very grateful for the ring and the Alchemy pills you gave me. Although I was the one who asked for them, I was genuinely surprised by your generosity, giving me such precious items so freely.

I've always remembered that I owe you, which is why that night I chose not to kill you."

"..."

Fang Ren's expression became slightly dazed, then he recovered, unable to help the surprise in his heart, his voice lowered, "You can't mean to tell me that your organization is the Nightfall Organization, are you? And you... you're the one who killed the mayor that night?"

"Exactly," Jian Qi'er nodded and said, "The Nightfall Organization is notoriously infamous on Earth, the Commander of the Central District Command personally issued an order to wipe us out, and the upper echelons have branded our entire organization as a terrorist group, as though we kill for pleasure without purpose."

Fang Ren was internally shocked and found himself at a loss for words for a moment.

He could never have imagined that a member of the Nightfall Organization, which everyone on Earth was wary of, would actually be hidden right by his side.

Jian Qi'er continued, "Just because we oppose their views, they've slapped the 'terrorist' label on us, which is ridiculous considering how many people actually believe it."

Fanning his brow, Fang Ren spoke again, "I don't quite understand why you killed the mayor?"

"The mayor of Yangming City was involved with a sinister conspiracy organization called Indra Sky, an inhumane organization determined to study the Cultivation Gene at any cost, sacrificing countless cultivators' lives in their experiments. To rescue those cultivators, we were constantly fighting against Indra Sky.

Since the mayor was a member of Indra Sky, of course I had to kill him," Jian Qi'er explained.

Fang Ren frowned and said, "Let's set aside this issue for now, but there's another question, you have an explanation for killing the mayor, but why kill an innocent witness?"
