After a thorough inspection, everyone sat in the grass and sighed in disappointment.
At the moment, they were not sure whether they could safely break the Heavenly Demon Forbidden Rule without triggering its backlash. After all, it was the power of a Mahayana Heavenly Demon, and they, the Divine Transformation cultivators, were powerless against it.
Jiang Yuebai was not disappointed at all and comforted everyone, "Don't worry, I am still useful to Shen Mingjing at the moment, he won't kill me easily."
Xie Jingshan said anxiously, "But this is too dangerous. Who knows if the mad dog will suddenly have a seizure and then..."
"cough!"
Pei Shengyue coughed hard to interrupt Xie Jingshan's frustrated words and asked Jiang Yuebai, "So what are you going to do? Are you going to the Demon Realm?"
Jiang Yuebai snorted and laughed, "I'm not a dog. If he asks me to go, I will go. I won't go! Since he wants to find me, it means he needs me now. The more I don't let him find me, the less likely he will dare to touch me easily."
Feng Zhuxin nodded, "Yes, this will help us counter him, but we can't just leave it alone. For now, I'm afraid the only way to solve the Heavenly Demon Forbidden Rule is to find the human Mahayana who died in the Great Wilderness."
Everyone nodded in agreement. Jiang Yuebai had the same idea at first, but he always felt it was risky.
"Further south is the largest city of the human race, Yan Di City. Let's go there first and then decide what to do next."
Jiang Yuebai stood up with a relaxed smile on his face, not looking like his life was hanging by a thread at all.
This mentality alone is enough to make everyone admire him. They still have a lot to learn from Jiang Yuebai.
*
At that time, Yan Emperor City was ten miles away.
Zhao Fuyi, Wen Miao and Xing Tuozi stopped at the fork in the road again.
Zhao Fuyi sighed helplessly, leaned against the willow tree, took out a book and looked at it. It was given to them by the young man they met before.
It was all in tortoise shell script, which was obscure and difficult to understand, but it involved the evolution history of formations from nothing to something, which made Zhao Fuyi particularly interested.
Zhao Fuyi couldn't help but think of Jiang Yuebai at this moment. If that girl was here, translating the tortoise shell text with her would definitely be more efficient.
I don’t know where she is now, or whether she is safe.
Zhao Fuyi sighed quietly. Seeing that Xing Tuozi was able to successfully achieve spiritual enlightenment with the support of his master, she thought that Jiang Yuebai was no worse than Xing Tuozi. If he had not been forced to leave Tianyan Sect, he would have definitely achieved spiritual enlightenment by now.
Zhao Fuyi couldn't help laughing when her nephew became her junior sister. She should work harder, otherwise she would be surpassed by that girl in the future. She wouldn't be able to call her senior sister in public!
Jiuchuan is still the best. Once a teacher, always a teacher.
Alas! I regret it!
Zhao Fuyi laughed at himself, shook his head, and continued to look through the books.
“… The upper hexagram is thunder, and the lower hexagram is separation. This is an auspicious hexagram for reunion and peace. We should take the main road and enter the city!”
At the fork in the road, Xing the Tuozi hunched his back, tilted his head, and argued with Wen Miao.
Wen Miao reeked of alcohol, her hair was loose and askew, and she casually threw three copper coins on the ground, glanced at them, and kept clicking her tongue.
"What kind of auspicious omen? If we enter the city, something unpleasant will happen. It is better to take the small road, bypass Yandi City, and go directly to Kunlun Hill to see the style of the Taoist celebrities in ancient times."
Xing Tuozi was not convinced and was about to speak when Wen Miao rebuked him.
"I, your aunt, have drunk more wine than you have drunk water. Listen to my advice. Fortune-telling is just a reference when you are confused. If you rely on the fortune-telling for everything, you will be harmed by it sooner or later. It's better to be casual in life."
Xing Tuozi was speechless, thinking about the previous arguments which always ended in failure because Wen Miao acted like a rogue or pretended to be drunk. He could only give up and not argue with this young lady.
Xing Tuozi turned his body and tilted his head to look at Zhao Fuyi under the tree, hoping that she would say something fair.
Zhao Fuyi closed the bamboo slips and walked straight onto the main road, "Enter the city first, then go to Kunlun Hill, so as not to delay anything!"
Xing Tuozi: … …
Wen Miao hurriedly caught up with Zhao Fuyi, "Junior Sister Fuyi, please slow down. My eyelids are starting to twitch. Can't we just go to Kunlun Hill?"
Zhao Fuyi kept walking, "Sister, don't you want to taste the fine wine in the city?"
Wen Miao was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "Okay, okay, let's go together!"
Xing Tuozi: … …
The three of them soon arrived outside the west gate of Yan Emperor City and discovered that many local Qi Refiners had taken a detour from the north, causing congestion at the entrance of the west gate and people lined up to enter the city.
"Why are you closing the North Gate?"
"Haven't you heard yet? After the Zhu clan of Zhangwei Mountain unified the entire Wu clan with an iron fist, their ambitions swelled. They called themselves the Heavenly Wu clan and are even expanding into the territory of our human race. They have already reached Kunlun Hill!"
"Are they crazy? How can the Qi cultivators of Kunlun Hill allow them to act so recklessly?"
"The main reason is that I didn't expect them to be so bold. They recently raided hundreds of mines in Kunlun Hill, burning, killing and looting, causing heavy losses to the Taoist sects in Kunlun Hill. They also pretended to be humans in an attempt to disguise themselves. They deserve to be killed!"
"Then Yandi City blocked the north gate. Could it be because the Wu Clan is going to attack us?"
"That's not the case. We are just taking precautions to prevent any disaster. We will seal the North Gate first and concentrate our forces to strictly control the other three gates."
Zhao Fuyi frowned, feeling that a storm was about to come. She turned her head to look at Wen Miao, wanting to postpone her trip to Kunlun Hill, but her eyes passed over Wen Miao's shoulder and saw a figure that she could recognize even if it turned into ashes.
Zhao Fuyi glanced at Xing Tuozi and thought that his divination was really accurate!
"What are you looking at? Your eyes are so wide open. Ouch, my right eyelid is twitching again."
Wen Miao pressed her twitching right eyelid, turned around and looked in the direction Zhao Fuyi was looking. Her eyes suddenly widened in disbelief.
The hunchback also turned around and tilted his neck to take a look. "Hey! This is really a sign of reunion and peace!"
In the distance, Jiang Yuebai and his group came around the blocked north gate and spotted Zhao Fuyi, Wen Miao and Xing Tuozi in the crowd. His hunchback and crooked neck were very conspicuous.
Jiang Yuebai was overjoyed, and immediately performed the Xiaoyaoyou technique, transforming into a gust of wind and rushing to Zhao Fuyi and Wen Miao.
Xie Jingshan followed closely behind, and Pei Shengyue and the others also smiled happily when they saw their acquaintances.
When Wen Miao saw Jiang Yuebai clearly, she felt it was extremely unreal for a moment. She couldn't help but reach out and pinch Jiang Yuebai's face and pull it. Seeing Jiang Yuebai grimacing and crying in pain, Wen Miao was shocked.
"You are such a stinky girl. When did you become a god? Xie Jingshan, you stinky boy, also became a god. Are you little things trying to force us old guys to death?"
Wen Miao gritted her teeth and knocked on Jiang Yuebai and Xie Jingshan's foreheads one by one. She caught a glimpse of Zhao Fuyi's stiff expression from the corner of her eyes, and with a teasing smile on her lips, she nudged Zhao Fuyi with her elbow.
"Junior Sister Fuyi, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and say hello to your Junior Sister Yuebai and Junior Brother Jingshan."
Xie Jingshan was a little timid. After all, in the past in the Tianyan Sect of the Earthly Spirit Realm, the majestic image of Master Fuyi was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. He could only laugh dryly and scratch his head, not daring to be presumptuous. However, he had to make Master Fuyi... Now that she was a True Venerable, he could let her call him Junior Brother. Just thinking about it made him feel excited!
Zhao Fuyi was happy to see that Jiang Yuebai and Xie Jingshan had both become gods, but she couldn't help feeling embarrassed when she thought about how they would be addressed in the future.
Jiang Yuebai had been waiting for this moment for a long time. He immediately shook his sleeves exaggeratedly and clasped his hands together, "Yuebai greets Senior Sister Fuyi."
Wen Miao was watching the fun with her hands in her pockets and smiling. She saw Zhao Fuyi looking at a rare look of helplessness, but unexpectedly Jiang Yuebai suddenly turned his head.
"Yuebai has met Senior Sister Green Ant."
Boom!
Wen Miao hit Jiang Yuebai on the head with a wine gourd, and was furious.
"You little bastard, you are really rebelling. I am your master and I will always be. Call me again!"
“Grandmaster…” Jiang Yuebai held his head, feeling aggrieved.
“That’s more like it!”
Xie Jingshan watched this scene from the side, grinning foolishly. He still felt like he was at home with the elders of Tianyan Sect.
Xie Jingshan suddenly felt that someone was staring at him. He turned his head and saw two familiar faces at the foot of the city wall.
One of them turned out to be his grandfather Xie Tianbao, and the other was Cang Huo, who had changed his hair to black but was still pregnant. He was holding a jade image in his hand, and was secretly looking at Zhao Fuyi, Jiang Yuebai and the others.
Seeing this scene, Xie Jingshan's mouth twitched.
All the people from the Tianyan Sect and the geniuses from the upper realms were basically gathered together, except for Ye Tianlang and Wu Chao Wuyang, who were imprisoned in an unknown volcano by a group of strange people with animal faces and human bodies, working on iron and casting tools without seeing the light of day.
See you tomorrow~
