When already in a state of anger and annoyance, feeling someone trespassing on his wards would undoubtedly make him even more unhappy.

He wanted to kill that lowly ant as soon as he raised his hand.

But fortunately, he did not.

On the contrary, he calmed down.

This thought of ​​easily stomping someone to death was wrong, even if it could be done with just a flick of a finger it was still wrong.

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

So it seemed that although the memory was gone, many of the things that had been changed still remained?

He looked at his slender fingers and seemed to detect a faint bloody scent on them.

The greater the ability, the more one must practice restraint, just like what he did in his previous life.

Thinking of this, he decided to go and reprimand this disciple who didn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth. Was this a place one could come and go so casually?

The big wards were made by the predecessor, and if one carelessly entered, only bones would be left.

He stretched out his hand and pressed a finger somewhere on the side of the bed. Fortunately, he already understood the usage of the wards.

A disheveled woman in a sorry state staggered from the void and almost fell in front of him, but was supported up by an invisible force which disappeared soon afterwards.

He looked at her lightly.

He did not speak, but he also did not restrain his aura.

The true aura of power, belonging to Kun-Lai’s Sect Leader.

Regardless of status or demeanor, the cultivation of the Master of the Western Continent was definitely not something that ordinary cultivators could look directly at.

Under such pressure, the woman barely dared to raise her head as she knelt in front of him. She prostrated herself three times, and knocked her head on the ground thrice at each prostration. Only then did she barely manage to say: “This disciple has been negligent, and a hundred Foundation Establishment disciples of the sect have fallen into danger in the secret realm. Please forgive us, we hope that the Sect Leader will undertake the task of rescuing them.”

Is that so? Then it was excusable.

After Ji Yunlai’s divine consciousness swept the area, he found a bunch of people surrounding a celestial flying peak that was next to Yangshuo Peak. They were discussing anxiously, saying that it had been three days of not knowing what was going on inside.

It had been three days? This kind of thing should have been made known to him earlier, why had it been delayed for so long?

Practically without a second thought, Ji Yunlai was already there.

Pulling his aura into himself, he walked to the entrance of the secret realm. Behind a pavilion, the rocks were as flat as if it had been shaved by a knife. From the texture of the surface left after splitting the mountain, he could also see the cultivation level and technique as well as deduce the posture of the method used.

And the seals on there were similar to the seals he had learned.

After reading the seals making up the ward at a glance, he got a good idea of their function. This ward was triggered by a defense mechanism due to internal reasons.

It was likely those children did something inside to result in this effect.

It was not difficult to crack, but damage to the data was inevitable if done forcibly, and in order to solve it, permission was required.

One Trojan horse was enough.

The hardware was right there, so there was no need to send the Trojan horse to the console.

Ji Yunlai stretched out his fingers and drew in the air, embedding hundreds of new seals in the original ward of seals.

After a small flash of light, the entire ward seemed to be infected, the color changing from black to blue and spreading across the whole ward.

Then.

The entrance was opened again.

Ji Yunlai walked in.

He didn’t realize that a large bunch of people were already kneeling around the area.

“Did you record it down! Did you record it down!” An older cultivator stabilized the hairpiece holding his hair that had slipped down, and roared at the disciples around him.

A middle-aged disciple supported himself on knees that could hardly stand up, and smiled bitterly, “I only managed to record the part written on the left by the Sect Leader.”

“What I recorded is the one on the right.” Another disciple smiled bitterly.

“Xiao Ting, you are the most talented, how much did you record?” The older cultivator asked his youngest apprentice.

“I recorded two-thirds, but some of the seals seemed to be new, I mostly paid attention to those…” The young disciple responded a little guiltily.

“Quickly, we must match our results.”

“Um, shouldn’t we send people in for rescue?” A disciple asked weakly, and pointed to the entrance that had been opened.

“The Sect Leader has already gone inside, what need is there of us?”

***

In the secret realm, Feng Qingxiu glanced over and saw that there was only a small area of the secret realm that could be stood on. He frowned slightly.

This whole time, they cooperated more and more tacitly, killing all the beasts and the like that had fled over, but many of them were still injured on their side.

The senior sister from Yushou Peak looked at her red snake with the tip of its tail cut off, and shed tears of distress.

Several junior brothers were seriously injured and unconscious, and were placed on the ground under the care of other junior brothers.

As for the others, they all had varying injuries.

After all, hundreds of fierce beast demons in desperation were not easy for Foundation Establishment cultivators like them to deal with. If they didn’t cooperate with each other, it would definitely not just be a matter of coming away injured.

The only exception was Ye Han.

It seemed that the fierce beast demons didn’t even see him, passing by him as if he wasn’t there. He killed many of their numbers along the way and saved several senior brothers and sisters, which caused the others to change their negative opinions of him.

However, the secret realm had almost completely collapsed now, and there was only a small stable spot remaining. If they stayed any longer, they would be completely swallowed up.

His butterfly talismans had gone under the abyss more than once, but there was no news coming back, which caused him to not have much hope that they could survive.

This place they stood was the last place where the secret realm had yet to collapse, but they still didn’t have a clue on how to escape.

Fortunately, they were all disciples chosen out of thousands. Only a few of them had to be knocked out due to emotional breakdowns, while the rest were still able to persevere.

After all, everyone could feel what it was like to wait for death.

Feng Qingxiu suddenly thought of something and looked at Ye Han.

Ye Han’s hair stood on end: “What are you looking at?”

Feng Qingxiu suddenly held up his sword and made a bloody cut on his hand, letting the blood fall to the ground. The ground became slightly wet, but nothing else was unusual.

Then he grabbed Ye Han and made a bloody cut on his hand regardless of his struggle.

“What are you doing, are you crazy?” Ye Han said angrily.

Then he paused, finding that everyone around him was looking at him.

“Your blood…” Someone spoke up.

His blood dripped to the ground and disappeared without a trace, as if it had never landed on the ground in the first place.

Ye Han felt a little spooked.

Feng Qingxiu thought about it, calculated where the center of the spot of land was, and pulled Ye Han over.

As the blood fell, several seals slowly emerged.

There were finally clues! Everyone was overjoyed, and several senior brothers smiled amiably as they drew their swords and walked towards Ye Han.

“Alright, the disciples good with seals come here, let’s decipher the seals here first, this should be the core of the secret realm.” Feng Qingxiu only tried it after seeing that Ye Han was ignored by the fierce beast demons and his blood would not show up on the ground. But who knew that it worked!

He had always had prestige among his peers so more than a dozen disciples soon came over.

But the wards obviously surpassed their beginners’ expectations, and progress was slow.

Two hours later, their spot shrank even more.

Several senior brothers inevitably looked at Ye Han’s wound again, and wondered if it was a little too small.

“Are you even able to solve the problem!” Ye Han was also anxious, having encountered this situation for the first time.

The equally anxious senior brothers around him glared at him, and if they weren’t worried about distracting Feng Qingxiu, they would go over and beat him up.

Feng Qingxiu discussed with a few disciples of Taiyi Peak, and finally smiled bitterly: “We can only gamble, this should be the channel to other secret realms.”

“We just don’t know where it leads.” The person next to him continued, meaning that all they could do was to hand over their lives to fate.

“But if we want to open the channel, it needs more spiritual power, but we don’t seem to be enough.” Someone spoke with worry.

“Let me try.” Feng Qingxiu thought for a while, and finally took out a piece of talisman paper.

The snowy white talisman paper was smooth like white jade, and the red seal on top shone brilliantly. Just looking at it caused one to feel carefree and relaxed.

“This—” A female Taiyi Peak senior sister almost screamed, “This is a spiritual seal!”

Regarding spiritual seals, she had only seen it once in the main hall of the inner peaks, and one must pay spiritual stones in order to have a chance to observe. It was extremely expensive, but the number of people lining up to observe it was still amazingly large. The queue was so long, she had yet to reach her turn despite waiting a month!

“Junior Brother Feng, who wrote this?”

“Junior Brother Feng, I’ll pay ten thousand spiritual stones for it, my family is rich!”

“Junior Brother Feng, don’t listen to them. If you sell it to us talisman seal disciples, Taiyi Peak will provide you with free talismans for your entire lifetime!”

“Junior Brother Feng, can you let me have a look?”

“Please let me bask in immortal energy!”

“I want to bask in immortal energy too!”

***

“What time is it now!” Feng Qingxiu scolded angrily, and then paused. He did not expect this piece of paper to have such an origin, let alone explain the source of it, so he just stuck it on where the entrance of the secret realm was supposed to be.

As if hearing the instructions, enormous spiritual power poured in, and the entrance that shone with starlight opened.

“Go!”

They all rushed in.

In a matter of seconds, the remaining spot of land was left completely empty.

Only a mess of litter that they had no time to pick up could be seen left remaining in the collapsing secret realm.

In the next second, a figure in obsidian robes appeared silently.

He looked at the entrance that was closing, feeling slightly satisfied.

That child was quite clever, he only taught him a bit on identifying and modifying seals and he managed to absorb the essence of the knowledge.

Although his techniques were still a little green, it was full of potential.

The thinking of those people outside the secret realm door just now was too rigid, unable to even find a bug after so long, and it was likely that they usually engaged in conventional development.

This child had just studied with him for a day, and yet he had figured out deciphering and code cracking methods. Although he relied on the tool he gave, it was still very remarkable.

Back in his previous life, this child would be senior engineer material!

He couldn’t help but smile. However, the foundation needed to be strengthened and strengthened some more.

He raised his head and glanced up at the sky.

In the next second, it was as if a switch was pressed, and the light sources in the sky suddenly lit up.

The entire secret realm was restored as if it had been rewinded. The land gradually recovered and spread to the surroundings, but the previous green grass, birds and beasts were gone.

This was always the case, lifeforms could not be copied.

Such knowing suddenly flitted across Ji Yunlai’s mind.

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

This was an ordinary secret realm of Great Xuan, but also not ordinary.

If one was of the inperial family, one could escape through this realm, and at the same time destroy the secret realm and block any pursuers.

He should go and bring them back.

He walked into the entrance of the new path.

The paralysis from the poisonous fumes did not last long, and after half an hour, Ye Han could move freely.

He decided to continue with robbery. This time, he increased his vigilance and did not show himself ahead of time. This way he felt that he would not lose to a sneak attack.

However, it turned out that of the three people he encountered in a row, he lost to all of them.

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

He was left with a newly bruised and swollen face to show for his efforts.

Self-esteem having been seriously pummeled, he developed a trace of doubt on the truth of Mingyu’s belief that he was a genius.

How could a genius lose like this?

His power was clearly far superior than theirs. How could they be so despicable? They clearly discovered him a long time ago and yet pretended not to have noticed him, using all kinds of underhanded means, pretending to be dead or pretending to have lost.

There was not a speck of dignity to be had at all!

Just as he was feeling depressed, a person suddenly appeared in his sight.

The person who he hated so much that he wanted nothing more than to kill off.

The young man who came from afar had a relaxed expression, a handsome face, and an elegant demeanor, completely different from his current sorry looking state. The difference was that of one between heaven and earth.

Silently, the jealousy in his heart sprouted up again, but Ye Han didn’t even know what he was jealous of. He was clearly more talented and had a higher status than him now.

Ye Han very quickly psyched himself up and decided to rob his pouch.

There was an agreement made earlier to avoid him before, but for Mingyu… no, not even for Mingyu. His mother said that promises must be kept, otherwise it would always be oneself who regretted it in the end.

Hmph, I’ll let you go for now.

Ye Han decided to turn around and leave. He glanced around and decided to go in the opposite direction of Feng Qingxiu.

But at that moment, a sudden shift occurred.

The entire sky of the secret realm was originally clear and cloudless, with more than a dozen light sources that looked like small suns covering the sky, so night did not exist.

But at that moment, the light sources suddenly all snuffed out.

The whole world fell into darkness.

There was not a trace of light at all.

Ye Han could only stumble his way forward. He fell several times along the way and was cut all over by sharp leaves.

Then he was pulled to a stop by a person.

A person behind him took out a spiritual stone. The glow from the spiritual stone was weak, but it was enough for him to see what was in front of him clearly.

What he saw before was a wide stretch of grassland, but what he saw in front of him now was clearly an abyss without an end in sight.

Despite Ye Han’s usual daring, he couldn’t help but feel a little frightened.

Although Mingyu said he would not die, he did not want to fall into unknown depths either.

“Take this.” Feng Qingxiu handed him the spiritual stone.

“I don’t need your help, looking at you, you must only have this one spiritual stone in your possession.” Ye Han said coldly, “I will also save you once in the future, but I will not…”

“Do we have hatred between us?” Feng Qingxiu finally looked at him.

“Of course, we—” Ye Han paused suddenly, realizing that he really couldn’t find any reason, “It was you who forced Ah Luo to marry…”

“If I was not engaged to her, would you even have the chance to know her?” Feng Qingxiu asked him.

“…” Ye Han was startled.

Of course not, if it weren’t for Madam Feng who would often go on outings with the young lady of the Bai family, it would be impossible for him as a slave to know the young lady of the Bai family.

“If you didn’t know her, I would have married her already. Although I am not familiar with her, I believe I would have treated her well.” Feng Qingxiu glanced at him, “Who did she die for? Did her father really want to kill her?”

“…” Ye Han was struck speechless.

Of course not. Her father threatened her that if she didn’t go back he would kill him, but if she was willing to go back he would let him go. She had agreed, but he himself refused to accept it and took the initiative to charge over with a sword. But at that time he was too powerless, so in order to save him Ah Luo pushed him down the river and took the blow from her father’s anger-filled sword strike.

“We are now in a secret realm and we are all in danger. We are all disciples of the same sect. Is it embarrassing for you that I saved you?” Feng Qingxiu asked again.

“…” Ye Han said angrily, “We won’t die anyway, who asked you to save me.”

“Well, actually, we can’t get out of the secret realm anymore.” Feng Qingxiu said suddenly, “My talisman is already looking for an exit. The previous one is gone. And the edges of this secret realm are collapsing. Look at the abyss in front of you.”

Ye Han lowered his head and found that the abyss just one step away from him had now reached his feet, and the surrounding land seemed to be gradually swallowed up by the darkness.

He stepped back in a hurry.

“Okay, let’s go.” Feng Qingxiu turned around.

“Where?” Ye Han followed him.

“To tell the others that it is dangerous here and it is safer for everyone to be together.” Feng Qingxiu explained.

Ye Han did not say anymore.

Along the way, Feng Qingxiu seemed to have night vision, finding several fellow disciples before long, and under his lead, everyone began to search separately.

In a short while, more than a dozen people had gathered around them.

However, Ye Han was the only one who used a spiritual stone as a lamp, while the others were completely unimpeded in the darkness.

So Ye Han quietly went to Feng Qingxiu to ask why it was like this.

“We often had various classes when we were in the outer peaks, not only learning spiritual incantations, but also field practice. This kind of lightless environment is common in mining areas, and we have all learned how to navigate in such conditions.”

“Then the reason they could easily ambush me is also something you all learned?” Ye Han told him about his various defeats from earlier.

“Yes, all kinds of small techniques for detecting enemies are taught by instructors who specialize in this. After all, there are countless dangers in the Outlands, and all kinds of monsters and beasts are good hunters.”

As he was talking, a junior brother came over and asked for a few empty talisman papers.

Feng Qingxiu gave him two, and the other thanked him and left.

“Hmph, you sure know how to conduct yourself to gain goodwill.” Ye Han’s tone was a bit sour when he thought of that group of disciples who had laughed and heckled at him before.

“Ha,” Feng Qingxiu chuckled lightly and suddenly patted him on the shoulder before taking the lead to walk away, “In truth, conducting oneself is also a kind of cultivation.”

***

“It still won’t let us go in?” Outside the mountain wall, the stern woman frowned and looked at the young instructor.

“No.” The young instructor’s head was covered in sweat, but his heart gradually felt as if it was dipped in icy waters, “Taiyi Peak’s senior brothers have already notified the peak master of Taiyi Peak, but this is the secret realm of Great Xuan, and towards such changes they can’t figure out how to decipher the wards so quickly.”

“Can it be entered forcibly?” The stern woman asked.

“No, if we enter forcibly, once the entrance collapses, it will be difficult for the disciples to come out.” A Taiyi Peak disciple hurriedly stopped that train of thought.

“Then who can decipher the wards?” The woman frowned, “Their cultivation level is still too weak and they must not stay inside too long. The longer this is dragged on, the greater the danger.”

“This… I am afraid that there is only the Sect Leader.” The disciple smiled bitterly. In this world, if one spoke of the peerless master of talisman seals and wards, without a question it must be the Sect Leader.

“Then I will go.” The woman turned around and left.

“The Sect Leader is still in Seclusion and we can’t disturb…” Someone tried to stop her.

“Compared with so many disciples’ lives, so what if I assume responsibility for disturbing the Sect Leader!” The woman turned into light and flew away.

When she arrived at the Sect Leader’s dwelling, the big spiritual wards instantly blocked her way. She had always been hot tempered, so she directly charged in.

***

Ji Yunlai was currently sulking.

He encountered a pitfall.

Data recovery could be difficult or easy. Unlike hard disk storage, hard disk deletion was actually just deleting the address of the file. The specific file would still be in place, but the address would no longer be known. It was like the courier not being able to deliver things to people’s homes without their address. What was needed at this time was to circle an approximate range, and then go to each house one by one to look for the correct one, until the right place was found, only then would the file be restored.

The jade tablet was more like a blackboard. Everything you write was on it so deleting meant erasing the written words. Whether you could restore it depended on whether the eraser’s actions were thorough or not.

Regrettably, that person erased everything very cleanly, and there was not a single word left.

After three days this was the only conclusion to be reached, which really made him very unhappy.

But this gave him a hint as well, were there any other jade tablets around him that were deleted?

So he searched every corner of the surrounding rooms, and he really did find a seal on the head of the bed that did seem incongruous.

After solving a few common logic problems, he got a jade box.

After opening it enthusiastically, he found a book inside.

What book should be hidden so deep? And not put online and backuped?

He turned the pages of the book.

Blank paper.

Ji Yunlai almost wanted to chuck it out the window, however, a thought came to him and he reached out and stroked the blank page of the book.

A slight electric static danced on his fingertips, revealing that this was actually a codebook.

There were a variety of different passwords in the front, and at the end, there were a few lines of scribbled handwriting.

“After a thousand years of dreams and a hundred tribulations, when the deadline is approaching, there is still one person who remembers me.”

“If the past is forgotten, I am me, I am not me.”

“The supreme ninth heaven, overcoming past tribulations.”

What was this gibberish, Ji Yunlai complained, how come he didn’t know that he could be so cryptic?

“Idiot, don’t look for the past, if you find it and forget it again, see if you won’t be vexed to death!”

“Simply put, I met a scumbag, and voluntarily invited myself to be abused, then I came back to my senses, killed him and started a new family again.”

“…”

“I can’t hold on anymore, I thought I could.”

“I didn’t leave any trouble behind, I cleaned up all the mess already.”

“There is no need to practice the Supreme Nine Heavens Calamity Sword. We can come up with a better killing method. That was just a choice made out of helplessness at the time.”

“The road to cultivation is very difficult, and once you step onto it you can’t stop at all.”

“I have forgotten what it was like to yearn for knowledge, but you are still whole.”

“I miss the me in the beginning.”

“By the way, artificial intelligence can be made here. But if you recall the whole story, you won’t want to do it. Don’t say I haven’t warned you. In any case, I have made one already.”

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

“Don’t ask me where the manuscript is, I am more adept at deleting data than you!”

“The 983-year-old Ji Yunlai’s last words (I have indeed become old).”

***

This was the reason for his anger and the cause of his sulking away half the day.

Then he heard a loud sound.

Feng Qingxiu first heard of secret realms when he just reached the Foundation Establishment Stage. At that time, his teacher once asked him seriously if he was afraid of death, and if not then he would help him apply to training in a secret realm, and then explained to him what secret realms were.

In short, cultivators seized the authority of heaven and earth and hid a piece of land into the void, leaving only an entrance, and thus became a secret realm.

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

There were three characteristics that a secret realm possessed: 1. Other than the entrance, it was impossible to return to the normal world by other means. 2. Generally a secret realm was a dwelling created by a powerful cultivator, so these realms contained a lot of goodies. 3. Dangerous, very dangerous, extremely dangerous.

The Wuling Sea Secret Realm was a less dangerous secret realm suitable for novice cultivators during the Foundation Establishment Stage.

However, its appearance accompanied a disturbance in the Outlands, and the secret realm was located on the Kun-Lai border and it was not safe, so utilizing the secret realm was temporarily put on hold.

This was all the information that Feng Qingxiu learned from his teacher, and he relayed it to everyone without reservation.

Of course, everyone was grateful, and within just a short while, he faintly regained his prestige as the head student that he had been back then while still studying in the upper school.

Only Ye Han showed disdain when he heard these words, as if he had heard a joke.

Soon it was chenshi (7-9am), and the team was ready to set off. The leader of the team was a serious-looking female cultivator wearing a high jade crown and a cold expression. She was the peak master of Yangshuo Peak and the headmaster of the upper, middle and lower three schools. All of the disciples here were basically her students. Seeing that she was about to speak, they were all very respectful—as for Ye Han, he was completely ignored by everyone.

“Since everyone is here, I will make things clear first,” The female cultivator glanced around sternly. “You are all future pillars of the sect. The secret realm is not the same as previous training grounds. It is extremely dangerous and deaths are to be expected. Now, you all have an opportunity to train inside. Anyone who only wants to be a scholarly cultivator, it’s not too late to quit now.”

A scholarly cultivator only studied and researched cultivation and spiritual incantations. Although the income was not high and the resources were not many, its advantage was safety. It was the first choice for many cultivators with mediocre talent and no self-motivation.

After the female cultivator finished speaking, and seeing that these young cultivators had firm eyes and no one flinched away from her gaze, she could not help but nod slightly: “If this is the case, let us set off!”

The hearts of all the young cultivators jumped, what kind of mount would it be for so many people?

Just as they were thinking about this, they saw a mass of hanging trees, huge rock formations slowly flying over.

“Actually a small celestial flying peak?” Someone exclaimed.

The cost of a celestial flying peak was extremely high. Generally, only the wealth of an entire inner peak could afford the cost and upkeep. This time one was sent specially for them, causing them to all feel overwhelmed and flattered.

“It’s only the entrance to the secret realm.” The stern female cultivator explained lightly, “Since the secret realm came into knowledge, there have always been small-time thieves and trespassers, so we simply unearthed the entrance to make it easier for our Kun-Lai disciples to enter.”

Everyone was speechless for a while.

After a long while, a young female cultivator whispered: “What if it got broken?”

“It’s just a secret realm, if it breaks, it breaks, what is there to pity?” The female cultivator spoke with a cold expression, “Don’t waste anymore time, I ask again, does anyone want to back out?”

No one moved.

“Then go ahead! The one who gathers the most resources is first place!” With this, her long sleeves whipped out, transforming into a celestial river, and almost instantly these young cultivators were rolled up into the sleeves and blasted into the mountain wall. Of course, the disciples’ shocked yells couldn’t be helped—Not everyone could keep calm when seeing oneself being thrown face forward into a mountain wall.

Afterwards, the female cultivator shook her sleeves and sat cross-legged in the main hall, waiting for the end of the competition/training.

“Senior Sister is still so rough towards the little disciples.” There was a chuckle from nearby.

“Hardship leads to success; do you think coddling them all day long is the right thing to do?” The female cultivator said coldly.

“Naturally not, but being too rigid is also not good,” The male voice responded, “every time you scare them, there is always a bit of guilt, you and I know it.”

This Great Xuan Secret Realm was used for imperial examinations. Although there were many dangers in it, people would not truly die inside. If someone died in the secret realm, they would turn into starlight and automatically return to the entrance, and thus end the test. Taiyi Peak had tried many times to decipher this secret realm and find out the structural principles, but failed many times—when Great Xuan ruled the world back then, they had collected and gathered many books on ancient talisman seals and spiritual wards of the world, and the dynasty’s power could be glimpsed from this secret realm.

“On matters of life or death, there is great horror but also exceeding of one’s limits. If they know that it is harmless, then the point of this secret realm will be half lost.” The female cultivator said.

The world was chaotic. Their Kun-Lai Immortal Mountain guarded an entire continent. If their disciples could not even pass the life or death barrier, how could they succeed in the immortal way?

“Looking at Ye Han’s expression, it seems that he already knows about the inner workings of the secret realm.”

“No matter, there is Feng Qingxiu.”

“Yes, that’s right, now that the Sect Leader has left Seclusion. We must report the matter regarding Feng Qingxiu.”

“Naturally!” A dark look flashed across the female cultivator’s face, “If we don’t stand up for our students, what’s the point of being a teacher?”

The male voice let a sound of agreement.

After a while, the male voice suddenly spoke up in a solemn tone: “It seems that something has gone wrong!”

***

The green grass bent in the wind, the plains were vast and endless.

This was the first time Feng Qingxiu had entered a secret realm.

For someone who had seen only ​​clouds and high mountain forests for more than ten years he couldn’t help but feel surprised. So this was the grassland?

He heard that the Western Continent was originally only grassland and desert back then, so it was sparsely populated. Later, the Xing Dao Master cut off the spiritual vein of the main mountain with his sword, and a huge gap appeared in the main mountain range that surrounded the Western continent in the shape of a horseshoe. As a result, the South Sea was no longer obstructed, and lush forests began to cover the previously barren land. The whole continent now looked very different from hundreds of years ago.

Since then, the main mountain was named Kun-Lai and became the foundation of Kun-Lai Sect.

What a truly spectacular sight indeed.

The only problem was that this place was completely different from what the cloud tortoise had told him. He had said the entire secret realm was a desert!

He raised his hand and drew several topographic maps in the dirt, carefully comparing it to the current environment.

Fortunately, the topography did not seem to have changed much, only some grass had grown out from the ground.

But he didn’t come to see the scenery, but to hunt and gather spiritual resources!

There were spiritual resources in this place, and the more they gathered, the higher quality spiritual resources they found, the higher the final evaluation. And for him, whether he could stay or be forced to leave, it all depended on this one chance.

Feng Qingxiu smiled slightly, took out a few pieces of black talisman paper with seals, knelt down on the ground quietly, and began to fold them.

The colorful seals jumped nimbly on the tips of his slender fingers, and the talisman paper seemed to come alive in an instant.

After a few breaths, a beautiful black butterfly fluttered at his fingertips. Apart from having no antennae, it was difficult for people to distinguish it from a real butterfly.

He raised his hand and let it go.

Then he began to fold a second one.

Raising his hand again he let that one go as well.

Then a third.

***

After finishing folding all of it, he looked at the few talisman papers left in his hand. After making some calculations, he estimated that two hours had passed.

Then he got up unhurriedly, and after looking around, he walked in one direction.

In his mind, he could feel the colorful butterflies flying to the corresponding positions one by one.

It was about time. He raised the standard long sword given to the disciples and thrusted it into the grassy ground.

“Hiss—” There was a huge hissing sound, and the earth suddenly shook. A huge beast as tall as a ten story tower burrowed out of the ground, its large mouth with sharp jaws dripping with rotten smelling mucus snapped forward like lightning.

The sword energy suddenly bloomed like a chrysanthemum.

A shadow appeared in Feng Qingxiu’s eyes, the body of the beast filling his vision.

He didn’t retreat but advanced, the sword energy cleverly avoiding the fierce jaws, like a light breeze blowing by.

The giant beast froze in mid-air, and after a breath, it fell to the ground.

Though he was only in the Foundation Establishment Stage, Feng Qingxiu’s swordsmanship which had received pointers from the Sect Leader himself had already possessed a trace of pure sword intent.

The Rift Sword was simplified from the Supreme Nine Heavens Calamity Sword, and that kind of fierce sword intent was beyond comparison with ordinary opponents.

Feng Qingxiu carefully recalled the structure of this sand worm, and began to peel off the skin. The sand worm’s tendons were valuable, its core was also a good thing. Its poison sac could also be useful, and the fangs could be used as chopsticks. He also heard that the skin was quite popular with the sand spirit demon clan of the Outlands…

After packing up all spoils of war, Feng Qingxiu bounced the slightly heavier pouch in his hand and then walked to the right.

For his next target, he must be quick. The cloud tortoise said that there were nineteen dangerous places to avoid.

***

Ye Han walked by a river, worrying about his already full pouches.

His journey was too smooth, meeting only a few harmless water beasts, but the spiritual plants and rocks he picked up along the way could no longer fit in his expanded pouch.

It was his mistake, he should not have used the standard pouch handed out by the sect.

So… he could only defeat a disciple and take their pouch away.

In any case, Mingyu said that no one could truly die here.

It would be great if he could come across Feng Qingxiu, he had wanted to kill the other many times.

But if he really encountered him in this secret realm—hmph, forget it, he had agreed to avoid the other last time, and he kept his promises.

Then he’ll find other people instead, no matter what, he must defeat him this time to make Mingyu happy.

As he was thinking about this, he sensed the presence of someone downstream.

Walking over carefully, he saw a female cultivator in a red robe preoccupied with taking out a small red snake with the thickness of a finger from her pocket and feeding it water.

The little snake rolled up its tail in satisfaction and stretched out a tiny forked tongue to lap at the water.

It’ll be her then. Ye Han coldly announced in an arrogant tone: “Hand over your pouch and I won’t kill you.”

The girl looked at him in surprise.

Ye Han didn’t bother to talk nonsense. He circulated his spiritual energy, and attacked: “Take that!”

However, mid-way through, his body suddenly stiffened, all of his strength seemed to disappear, and he fell to the ground.

The girl petted the little snake with a smile on her face and kissed it in reward. Her snake had discovered him a long time ago, and its poisonous fumes had also been released a long time ago as well. She was just waiting for him to walk right into the trap.

She stepped forward and picked up Ye Han’s pouch, and let out an exclamation. There were so many things!

“You put that down!” He roared, trying desperately to circulate his spiritual energy and break through the immobilizing effect of the poison in his body.

“You are not Ji Mingyu, as if I’ll listen to you.” The girl’s voice was soft and had an accent, “You are not that powerful after all. I will be taking this pouch yo~.”

The little snake slithered down and bit his finger, and the energy he had just managed to gather dispersed again.

Then she walked into the stream and disappeared from Ye Han’s sight.

Ye Han was extremely angry for a while, trembling with rage, and vowing to find and make that girl know just how powerful he was.

However, he did not notice that a drop of blood fell from his finger and was then instantly immersed in the grassy earth.

This drop of blood with the blood of the Great Xuan imperial bloodline disappeared as if it had fallen into the void.

Daily life in Shennong Peak

1. Incantations

When Feng Qingxiu was brought to Shennong Peak to do miscellaneous work, a group of disciples who were new to Shennong Peak were drooling at the Cloud Talsiman Dao Seed placed in the main hall.

“In our Shennong Peak, those with Earth and Wood spiritual roots cultivate the Qingque Profound Law, and by placing the Cloud Talsiman Dao Seed in one’s sea of consciousness, it becomes a world of its own, and the body will act as the connection between the two worlds.” The manager introduced the Cloud Talsiman Dao Seed to the new disciples. “Of course, depending on how much spiritual energy your body absorbs to supply this small world, the better the crops will grow, and the better the crops grow the more spiritual energy it can produce to expand the land, and if the more land the more you can plant spiritual plants…”

“Then we can only farm? How do we use spiritual incantations?” A disciple asked.

“Incantations? What kind of thing is that, just farming is enough.” The manager calmly said, “When encountering danger, just hide in your spiritual realm. If not at least two cultivation levels higher than you, then they can forget about catching you. Only those afraid of death come to Shennong Peak. Did you think this was just a joke?”

The disciples looked dumbfounded.

Several disciples who were not selected by other peaks and were transferred to here instead bursted into tears.

2. People

“Senior Brother, why are there so many other peak disciples outside?” Feng Qingxiu asked a cultivator while weighing the rice.

A junior brother was mobbed just as soon as he went out. It was quite a frightening sight.

“They are here to place advance orders for rice,” The senior brother was not surprised, “Our Shennong Peak rice, you can’t buy it just because you want to.”

“Won’t they be angry?”

“If they aren’t satisfied then they can plant it themselves!”

3. Fate

“The sea of consciousness is surrounded by the natural breath of chaos. The larger the land, the wider the scope of the sea of consciousness, the stronger the soul, the higher the cultivation base. Of course, the Cloud Talsiman Dao Seed is shockingly small at the beginning, and you can only plant two cabbage at most. You little brats should take care not to go overboard, if you plant more than you can take, your life force will be sucked dry. Don’t say I haven’t reminded you.” The instructor said as he opened a bag of stones.

“My family has been farming for several generations, and just as I thought I could escape the same fate you tell me that I must go back to farming. Feels like there is no hope left in this life…” A disciple said sadly.

“Stupid, is the land you farmed done in vain?” The instructor was angry, “The bigger your spiritual farm field is, the heavier a blow you can deal out. The Peak Master’s spiritual farm field is thousands of acres large, and even cultivators in the Demigod Stage can’t take a hit from him!”

“But that’s only if he could even land a blow in the first place… ah! Why are you here, Peak Master? No, I didn’t mean—ah!”

4. Injury

“How come the Peak Master walks so silently despite being such a heavy person!” The injured disciple cried sadly.

He was practically a mountain of flesh!

“The Peak Master is a rabbit spirit demon, have you ever seen a rabbit who makes noise when walking?”

“Can rabbits farm land?”

“Rabbits are most afraid of death.”

“…”

That made a lot of sense.

5. Field

“I want a Cloud Talsiman Dao Seed…” A disciple said shyly, and the group of cultivators behind him also looked eager.

“Recently, it’s 30% off, so it’s now nine thousand spiritual stone points.” The manager said coldly.

The faces of this group of cultivators behind him pale in shock.

“That’s…” The disciple turned his head, only to see the group of cultivators behind him all avoiding his gaze.

“Only Nascent Soul cultivators and above can afford it.” The manager said without any surprise, “Cultivate your spiritual farm field to the Golden Core Formation Stage, and then look for a rich Nascent Soul cultivator to sponsor you.”

“…”

6. Rice

“Azure Rice! I want Azure Rice! Give me one hundred thou—” A spirit demon felt the rest of the words get stuck in his throat under the glare of a firebird next to him, “Give me one hundred catties.”

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

“Three catties of Crystal Rice… ai, it’s getting more and more expensive. I miss the time we were studying in the outer peaks, getting to eat free rice for ten years. I really ate a mountain of gold.”

“One catty of Yin Yang Blood Rice and one catty of Fragrant Blue Grass.” The person who next took out a jade box and said, “I already made an advance order, this is the payment.”

“…Your Excellency, are you in need of a servant? No money needed, just feeding me a few grains of rice each day is enough.”

Dawn approached, the sea of ​​clouds was roiling, and the high peaks stood tall and rugged amidst the clouds.

A giant tortoise as big as a palace slowly swam out of the sea of ​​clouds and stopped at the mountain cliffs.

“Why are you so late? I’m nearly late to morning class.” A female cultivator rushed onto the turtle’s back holding a booklet bound by white jade and complained.

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

“It’s cold.” The cloud tortoise opened its huge mouth and said slowly.

“It’s cold, we are also cold!” The cultivators who came up behind also voiced their complaints, “It really delays our cultivation.”

“That’s right, Elder Bai’s class! If we arrive even a little late there won’t even be any ground to sit on, we can only find a spot on the pine branches!”

“At least empty pine branches means that it is not too late. But I bet we can only listen to the lecture at the foot of the mountain now.”

“Senior Brother, I already said that we can’t be stingy with money! Cloud tortoises have no concept of time.”

“If it weren’t for the other fast-moving ones already taken, I wouldn’t have chosen cloud tortoises.”

“If you need to hibernate, then don’t come out to do transit!”

The cloud tortoise calmly remained parked next to the cliff, turning a deaf ear to the complaints.

After a few breaths, the people on the cliff had all arrived, and a faint light radiated from the periphery of the tortoise shell, enveloping the entire crowd. The cloud tortoise shook its head and tail, swimming slowly towards the distant sea of ​​clouds.

After about an hour, the cloud tortoise stopped at another lush mountain peak.

“That will be 5 spiritual coins.” The cloud tortoise said.

The crowd on the turtle’s back had no time to complain, one by one they went up to place their passenger fees in a cavity in the tortoise’s shell. They all gracefully jumped down from the tortoise’s back, and along with the other passengers getting off from the surrounding cloud tortoises they all rushed to the top of the mountain in the distance.

“Aren’t you going?” The cloud tortoise turned its head and asked the last passenger still sitting on its shell, “Elder Bai only holds a lecture once a year. It’s a pity to miss it.”

The young man glanced enviously at the distant mountain top, then retracted his gaze: “I have other important things to do. I am going to Yangshuo Peak, please transport me a while longer.”

“I like the word ‘please’ that you said. Those little brats are not polite at all,” The cloud tortoise moved its body with satisfaction, meandering among the clouds, and said leisurely, “Looking at the vast and beautiful world, how can one be anxious about everything and ignore the scenery around us?”

The young man nodded and praised: “Mr. Tortoise, you have a long life span, so you naturally follow your heart’s way. After all, the life span of my senior brothers and sisters is short, and it is common to be anxious occasionally.”

“That’s true. Us cloud tortoises live for tens of thousands of years. It’s a pity,” The cloud tortoise sighed faintly. “The world is difficult and dangerous. No matter how long the lifespan is, it can’t be matched by the greed of the world. Life can be long but fortune can never last long. Of those in my tortoise clan, how many have actually died of old age?”

“You must be joking with me, are you not ten thousand years old, Mr. Tortoise? You have a strong cultivation base, and will live for another 100,000 years.” The young man said sincerely.

“What’s the use of living long? In regards to cultivating, your human race is blessed, like the Sect Leader, who is but a thousand years old, and yet could already easily kill Great Sages of the spirit demon race a hundred years ago. Indeed, it is the truth that the heavens are always fair.” Even though the cloud tortoise said this, he was still a little proud of his race’s talent, “but why do you want to go back to Yangshuo Peak, child? After entering the inner peaks, you little brats rarely return to the outer peaks.”

“We will set out from Yangshuo Peak for the Foundation Establishment competition, and I am going to participate in the competition.” He said politely.

“The Foundation Establishment competition… I remember that the inner peaks have someone to send you off, why didn’t you go with those birds?” The cloud tortoise wondered. Kun-Lai provide spiritual birds and cloud tortoises for Foundation Establishment disciples who have yet to reach the Golden Core Formation Stage and couldn’t fly far on their own power. It’s just that the cloud tortoises were much slower, but relatively, also much cheaper.

“I am Feng Qingxiu.” The young man smiled, not embarrassed by his strange way of gaining fame, “I have not yet entered the inner peaks and cannot ride for free. It is too expensive to pay directly, and I must be frugal.”

“Ai, you are the unlucky person who was taken off the Dao Disc. On this matter, Ji Mingyu has gone too far. A lot of people are discussing this,” The cloud tortoise said with contempt. “Earlier, that Ye Han had actually grabbed a firebird and declared that he wanted to make a spiritual pet contract with it and was almost burned into a crisp by the firebird.”

Feng Qingxiu was slightly surprised: “Why did that happen, did no one tell him that the spirit demon races are not beasts?”

When Kun-Lai was first established, many spirit demon races were captured by the Sect Leader and contracted as servants. Those who performed well later had their contracts cancelled and allowed to go back home.

However, these spirit demons felt that Kun-Lai had very good benefits and they did not want to leave, so they eventually stayed.

Many of these spirit demons were even now negotiating with Kun-Lai high-level cultivators for their descendants to participate in the Dragon-Phoenix Selection, and there were often small-scale conflicts regarding this matter.

Although the firebird race was small, their speed was comparable to Nascent Soul cultivators, and they were widely used and paid. So Ye Han was truly lucky not to be burnt to death from trying to make a master and pet contract.

“His nostrils are stuck higher up towards the sky than even the ox spirit demon clan. Who wants to even talk to him more than necessary.” The cloud tortoise snorted with disdain, “It’s not easy for us to find work in Kun-Lai, so we can’t antagonize other people because of him.”

“That’s why I found you for transit.” Feng Qingxiu smiled.

“That’s true. Earlier, us cloud tortoises weren’t so slow. It’s just that in recent years, many little ones have grown up and are not greedy, willing to transit passengers for just a coin. Ai, with the chaotic prices, no one can make much of a living. So some slack off,” The cloud tortoise complained, “I heard that those birds have a similar situation. Recently, they have all begun to carry goods as well.”

“It should be fine, they can’t carry too many goods.” Feng Qingxiu comforted.

“I hope so,” The cloud tortoise didn’t want to continue talking about this either, and changed the subject, “By the way, is the secret realm you mentioned the one in Wuling Sea?”

“Exactly, do you know about it Mr. Tortoise?” Feng Qingxiu asked curiously.

“Of course, when I was a tender young tortoise, the secret realm was already there. Great Xuan still existed. Wuling Sea was a Great Xuan prince’s territory. Later, he was killed by the spirit demon clans and his tomb was built there. That’s why it’s called Wuling Sea.” The cloud tortoise said proudly, “That secret realm was first opened at that time, and many Xiu Cai came to take the test. It was very lively back then.”

“Mr. Tortoise is really knowledgeable!” Feng Qingxiu exclaimed.

“If you live a long time, you naturally know a little bit more.” The cloud tortoise looked left and right checking whether there were any other people. He felt that this child was indeed pleasing to the eye, so he said a few more words, “Later, when the Wuling Sea Secret Realm was discovered, I went there together with the first team of Kun-Lai investigators because I knew somewhat about it. I can tell you a little bit about what to pay attention to.”

“This is not good, it’s better to not say more about it.” Feng Qingxiu refused.

“What’s not good, that Ye Han will also go and he must know more than you. Let me tell you, you go and kick the butt of that entitled brat who can’t even distinguish between spirit demons and spirit beasts, understand?” The cloud tortoise stretched his neck and turned his head one hundred and eighty degrees.

“This…” Feng Qingxiu still hesitated.

“Then, from the entrance of the secret realm, there is…” The cloud tortoise spoke slowly, elaborating on the situation inside the secret realm.

Feng Qingxiu also listened carefully.

Two hours later, the cloud tortoise stopped on the cliff of Yangshuo Peak.

Feng Qingxiu thanked him and prepared to pay the fee.

“No need, just teach that brat a good lesson.” The cloud tortoise put away the money on his back.

“I will try my best.” Feng Qingxiu walked down the cloud tortoise, thought for a moment and then took out a small bag, saying sincerely, “This is the Azure Rice of Shennong Peak. It has the effect of unlocking wisdom. You can take it back and give your grandchildren a taste, Mr. Tortoise.”

“This is good, this is good!” The cloud tortoise stretched out his head and accepted the small bag with great satisfaction. Shennong Peak planted many grains for humans but few grains suitable for spirit demons. There were only so many quotas for Azure Rice every year. The spirit demon race had many descendants and it took a lot of effort to buy all that they need, “I won’t delay you. Next time you need my help, come to Yushou Peak to find me, just ask for Gui Qi. My granddaughter has just grown up and is at the perfect age to act as your transit. No money is required. Just feed her some food. I can also introduce you to any spirit demon clan you like, so remember to come.”

“I will definitely go to visit.” Feng Qingxiu nodded and agreed.

The cloud tortoise had already zoomed off, as if he was afraid of Feng Qingxiu regretting giving that small bag of Azure Rice.

Feng Qingxiu smiled slightly, and ticked off the strategy “Ask an elder of the spirit demon race for the details of the secret realm” in his head.

The results were gratifying, and it was not in vain that he waited a whole night for the oldest cloud tortoise.

Walking up to Yangshuo Peak on the ancient bluestone road again, he saw many disciples rushing towards morning class by shortcut, flying and leaping up the cliffs. From a distance, it was like a pilgrimage of a hundred birds. This was a famous sight in Kun-Lai. Looking back on the past, Feng Qingxiu felt a bit nostalgic.

He walked to the familiar main hall, and as he expected, the hundred or so Foundation Establishment disciples of his class had already arrived in advance.

When they saw him, their expressions were complex, some sympathetic, some gloating, but only two were willing to come forward and talk to him. After all, he was now a person who “offended the daughter of the Sect Leader” and those who did not have a strong friendship with him would not take the initiative to invite trouble.

Feng Qingxiu didn’t mind, and chatted with the two friends about the current situation, reassuring them that he still had a chance. Soon they started to talk about which peaks the surrounding senior brothers were recently.

And then examined the characteristics of each peak one by one… Before, when he first got the Net Charm, he did a lot of homework to select the peak most suited for him, pondering on his future for several months long. For example, the senior sister on the right had just entered Yushou Peak. They would choose a favorite beast for protection in the early stage, and if one had no backing, the choice of beast were usually insect or reptilian beasts like bees, scorpions, and snakes. They were cheap and didn’t need too much food. Moreover, upgrading them was also easier and even if they died one wouldn’t feel too much heartache. They were the first choice for novices… so he had brought a lot of realgar today.

As for the two friends who had been chatting with him, he had beaten them too many times, so he didn’t need to be familiar with their fighting style.

He did not see any newcomers, except for…

“Thump!” 

A young man in a fancy robe jumped off a huge firebird and landed in the open space in front of the entrance. The firebird didn’t waste any time, turning and flying away immediately.

“It’s better for you guys to give up early,” The young man looked arrogant, exerting his spiritual aura over the crowd, the pressure of a full level Foundation Establishment cultivator pressing down on everyone without reservation. “This time’s competition, I will be taking first place!”

Those who had reached low or mid-level Foundation Establishment were already considered very good for their age, but in the face of his peerless talent, they couldn’t help but be overshadowed.

But like this, it undoubtedly stoked everyone’s ire.

“Ye Han, I’m surprised the firebird was actually willing to carry you just now, you must have had to pay a lot of money, right?” Someone laughed.

“I hope you can still say the same when we are in the secret realm.” Ye Han glanced at the speaker coldly, and then turned back towards Feng Qingxiu again.

Feng Qingxiu smiled. He did not mention the previous agreement that the other should avoid him.

Ye Han snorted, and said to the presiding teacher who had just entered the door next to him: “Call me when we depart!”

Then he walked out of the door.

The surrounding Foundation Establishment disciples immediately gathered around Feng Qingxiu.

“What a rude person!”

“Senior Brother Feng, you must teach him a lesson this time!”

***

Feng Qingxiu nodded his head in agreement while exchanging brief words with them. He had a good demeanor and along with their past acquaintance, everyone naturally chatted happily with him.

“A group of inferiors using each other, nothing more than that!” Ye Han looked at them from outside coldly and disdainfully said, “Only power is everything!”

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

His voice was not small, and they were all cultivators so they naturally glared at him in displeasure.

Feng Qingxiu sighed in his heart, he couldn’t feel any pressure at all~

Ye Han made it so easy, it truly took away any feeling of accomplishment.

Ji Yunlai left this remark and left, ignoring the complex expression on his junior sister’s face.

He had more important things to take care of.

Finally, he now had a little access to the memory of the past. If not to make a copy of it right away then what was there to wait for?

Important information that was not backed up was never safe information!

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

When he returned to his residence, he eagerly opened the jade talisman without stopping even for a moment.

Sure enough, the above not only introduced the Li family, but also introduced the Great Xuan Immortal Dynasty.

After reading over the information, his horizon was indeed expanded by this terrifying force of power.

Different from today’s many sects and many big and small states and kingdoms that had the backing of these sects. Thousands of years ago, the human race was unified by the Great Xuan Immortal Dynasty. It was said that this was the only period of great unity since the reign of the Celestial Emperor…

It was simply an awe-inspiring phenomenon!

Just looking at this history caused Ji Yunlai’s blood to rush with a sense of excitement.

***

The Great Xuan Immortal Dynasty cultivators cultivated themselves with the fortune of the human race, gathering millions of human faith and conviction to cultivate. So long as the officials of Great Xuan could gather the popularity and support of the common people, their cultivation path was without any obstacles, and not even heart demons posed a problem.

The more fortune of the human race one possessed, the faster their cultivation would be, and one could even cross cultivation stages without facing any heart demon tribulations.

The only flaw was that the higher the cultivation stage, the more human fortune one required.

As for the people’s faith, it came from the merits you received as a result of your governance. So long as the people under your jurisdiction were grateful to you, there would be blessings in the form of the people’s faith, protecting you from all demons and misfortunes.

In addition, because the Great Xuan’s cultivation was that of the imperial examination method, the stages of cultivation were divided into Tong Sheng, Xiu Cai, Ju Ren, and Jin Shi, corresponding to Qi Condensation, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core Formation, and Nascent Soul (TN: Tong Sheng=candidate who has not yet passed the county level imperial exam; Xiu Cai=a person who has passed the county level imperial exam; Ju Ren=successful candidate in the imperial provincial examination; Jin Shi=successful candidate in the highest imperial civil service examination). The higher the level the more cultivation resources and fortune one could get, and thus practically gathering all the unaffiliated cultivators in the world. From then on, the Great Xuan Immortal Dynasty soared into the sky. For thousands of years, Great Xuan swallowed, split, attacked, implemented all kinds of methods, and basically captured and integrated all the cultivation sects in the world.

Anyone or sect who didn’t submit would be branded with a puppet seal and then thrown into the mining area as slaves, and those who submitted were broken up and scattered among the imperial army.

They also stipulated that all cultivators must be registered. If an unregistered cultivator was found, they would be arrested immediately, and those who were arrested could be killed on the spot.

After that, among these big sects, they either went underground one after another, not daring to reveal their presence, or immigrating to faraway lands, not daring to fight against Great Xuan.

And as a result, Great Xuan also collected countless manuals on cultivation methods and practices from other sects, their great library basically filled with the inheritance of the entire human race.

The cultivators all over the world could only practice the cultivation method of the Great Xuan.

***

Seeing this, Ji Yunlai frowned. Going too far could often be worse than not doing enough, and a sole dominating force could never last long. It was very easy to go wrong if one did things this way.

Even in his previous life, from ancient times to the present, vassal states of old imperial China were allowed to remain to serve as a warning buffer. Besides, the act of collecting and seizing books from all over the world was practically the same as burning books.

***

After conquering and unifying the human race, in order to obtain more resources and dominate the world, Great Xuan began to wage war on the lands of the spirit demon race and other foreign races.

At that time, Emperor Shang captured the spirit demon race’s Qingqiu State with almost no resistance. The Celestial Fox family that lived there dispersed into the lands of the Outlands. The fox spirit demon race’s Great Sage, the Queen of the Celestial Foxes, Su Wan was seriously injured and her whereabouts became unknown.

Great Xuan continued to march, but at this time dozens of spirit demon tribes and Great Sages had come to their senses. Originally, spirit demon tribes had always kept to their own kind, but Great Xuan had been too overbearing for thousands of years, so for the first time, seven Great Sages united to oppose the Immortal Dynasty. The Celestial Fox Queen and the other Great Sages did not launch direct attacks on Great Xuan’s terrifying forces, but carried out guerrilla attacks, dragging down Great Xuan’s main fighting force in the Outlands, and at the same time driving rats, insects, snakes and beasts to spread plague among the humans.

What they spread were not terminal illnesses, but ordinary ones such as typhoid, leprosy, black fever, filariasis…

They did not lead to immediate deaths, but the illnesses affected a large number of people and a wide range of areas.

This did not come to the attention of the cultivators at first.

But when they finally paid attention, the herbs used to treat these plagues and illnesses had all become extinct.

For a time, there were tragic casualties all over, shaking the fortune of the human race.

And another huge problem had also surfaced.

There were too many officials in the  Great Xuan Immortal Dynasty.

Cultivators had a long life span. In a dynasty that had lasted tens of thousands of years, there had only been three emperors, not to mention the various officials in the court.

The imperial examinations were held every ten years, so after being held hundreds of thousands of times the number of cultivators in incumbent official positions accumulated more and more.

A large number of Tong Sheng, Xiu Cai, and Ju Ren were unable to hold positions. If they were unable to hold positions, they would not be able to use the fortune of the human race to cultivate, and thus could not reach higher cultivation stages…

However, the fortune of the human race was ultimately limited, and there were too many cultivators and not enough fortune to go around, causing unease and conflict within the Great Xuan.

If they withdrew from the Outlands at this time and went back to settle internal affairs, there might have still been a chance. However, Emperor Shang did not want to leave a smudge on his undefeated record. He insisted on continuing with the war campaign, thinking that only more land would yield more fortune.

Soon after, the Celestial Fox Queen Su Wan, who disguised herself to be a human, entered the palace harem. She changed her name to Shu Wan’er, and no one knew what she had done in the palace.

But just a hundred years later, Emperor Shang died violently in the imperial palace, Great Xuan’s imperial family split into two factions, the spiritual wards protecting the imperial capital were taken down, and the city was ransacked by the hidden Great Sages who had been waiting for that moment. The imperial family was killed in a bloodbath in the palace, and only a dozen grandchildren of the imperial family survived. In order to prevent the cultivation books from being seized, Great Xuan’s High Priest activated the spiritual wards and destroyed all the books, the fire lasting for as long as three months.

Since then, Great Xuan split into several territories, each ruled by an imperial grandson.

With the nation’s fortune in decline, the cultivation practices and manuals of ordinary sects far surpassed that of Great Xuan’s, and thus these sects took the opportunity to return to power.

Subsequently, the power of these individual sects rose, and conflict between fortune cultivators and the orthodox cultivators lasted for a hundred years, with the latter winning in the end.

The accumulated resources of the Great Xuan Immortal Dynasty were soon divided up, and the imperial blood and fortune cultivators still to this day remain enemies of the world to be killed by all cultivators.

A thousand years ago, the Xuan Kingdom ruled by the last imperial grandson was destroyed, and the Great Xuan Immortal Dynasty officially ended.

***

Ji Yunlai sighed. If after the unification they continued to develop, there might have been a chance for the flourishing of the human race. However, the Great Xuan Immortal Dynasty was too domineering, and the emperor was too immersed in personal grandiose deeds. It was no wonder that when he just transmigrated a thousand years ago, there were barren and bleak scenes everywhere. After all, war had lasted thousands of years.

It was no wonder that Ji Yunlai picked up so many refugee children back then, even the cultivators died easily, so one could imagine just how miserable the lives of the common people were.

And those cultivation books, gone up in flames just like that!

Did they know just how much he suffered to buy just a basic talisman seal dictionary???

Burned just like that! Burned!

It was simply… simply too much, didn’t they know that all important data should be backed up?

He only just barely suppressed his anger and kept reading.

***

In order to avoid being hunted down, Great Xuan’s imperial surname changed from Yin to Li, known as the Li family, their goal being the restoration of the Great Xuan.

The Celestial Fox Great Sage Su Wan came to the human territory to hunt and kill the Li family several times, wounding countless innocent people along the way, and thus was cut in half by the Master of Kun-Lai’s sword, no longer daring to enter the Western Continent again.

The End.

***

Ji Yunlai was stunned!

Too caught off guard!

Hey! How could it end like this?

What about afterwards? Where was the rest?

He almost screamed at the sky. Where was the most important part?

What about the love-hate story between Ji Yunlai and Li Xianjing?

How could it cut off in the most critical place???

***

Bai Shuixian raised her head as if having felt something, and sighed quietly. The Sect Leader must have remembered the past. She was right to delete the information that the Sect Leader knew.

“What is it, does Junior Sister have any more to add?” Next to her, Yan Zhao asked. They had been discussing the rewards for the disciple competitions.

“Nothing, the competitions in the inner peak are decided as such.” Bai Shuixian reluctantly said, putting thoughts of the Sect Leader aside for now. “But there is one thing, each peak competition has learned the manuals and incantations, but the new Foundation Establishment disciples are all beginners and it is difficult for them to be selected to participate. It would be a pity for them to miss this opportunity.”

“Matters of chance are inevitable.” Yan Zhao was too lazy to think about those little disciples, after all it was their own fault for not being born early enough.

“Why don’t you give an opportunity for these Foundation Establishment disciples, open a Great Xuan Immortal Dynasty secret realm, and choose the top three winners to attend the ceremony?” A cold-looking young cultivator asked slowly.

The secret realm they discovered was supposed to be for the Xiu Cai examination, or the Foundation Establishment Stage, used by the Great Xuan. Great Xuan’s imperial examination was known for its fairness and equality. After all, there were advantages that came along with thousands of years of accumulation. After the exam, the first, second, and third place would be clear at a glance.

This was a good idea. Bai Shuixian and the others looked at each other, and they all nodded: “Excellent!”

She raised her hand, added a few strokes to the notice recording the details of the competitions, and then threw it out the window.

The notice rolled around in the air, turned into countless golden birds, and flew off to the many peaks.

Immediately, news of the competitions were updated on the announcement bulletin board at each peak.

Kun-Lai instantly bubbled like a boiling pot of water!

***

Shennong Peak.

The news of the Kun-Lai disciple competitions had spread throughout the sect.

In the main hall, a group of people were drooling over the prize list, and Feng Qingxiu was no exception.

“Rewarding 10,000 spiritual stone points just for being selected to attend the ceremony…” A senior brother had already begun to count how many good things he could buy with that kind of money.

“Yin Yang Blood Rice seeds, that is something I can’t afford to buy even if I sold myself…” A disciple swooned when he saw the list of rewards.

“As if you’re even worth a lot of money.” The senior brother next to him kicked him away, “Cloud Talisman Dao Seed, if one has the money to buy then one must buy the Cloud Talisman Dao Seed. With it, there will be one more spiritual field, one more spiritual field, you fools!”

They were all given their own spiritual fields, but only after gradually refining it into their foundation could they plant spiritual grass and rice at will, but what was the situation with possessing two spiritual fields? The speed of harvesting would be doubled, and the output would also be doubled!

“That’s something that the chief disciple of Shennong Peak is determined to get, besides isn’t one spiritual field enough to hollow you out?” One person sneered, and everyone around nodded in agreement. They couldn’t even absorb that much spiritual energy for cultivation of spiritual plants so how many spiritual grains could one more spiritual field produce?

“That’s right, have some self-awareness on whether you have a solid enough foundation, Shennong Peak is full of greedy and exhausted oxen, but never is there any land that has been worn down from too much plowing.” The disciple who had been kicked sneered.

“Just because you can’t do it doesn’t mean others can’t. At worst, I’ll leave it to my apprentices in the future!”

“Enough already! Why aren’t you guys talking about being able to see the Sect Leader at the grand ceremony?” Feng Qingxiu felt his heart race with excitement and raised his voice. “To be able to see the Sect Leader in our lifetime, how fortunate we are! All those external possessions, we’ll have other opportunities to get them!”

“Uh…” Some disciples felt guilty.

“Xiao Feng, you’re overthinking it. We’ll only be able to stand in the outer hall, we probably can’t even enter the front hall.”

“Wanting to see him but also feeling a bit scared.”

“That’s something the best disciples worry about. As for us, let’s just see if we can grab a spot in the outer hall.”

“That’s true,” not wanting to embarrass his senior brothers, Feng Qingxiu stepped down, but he disagreed in his heart.

He looked over the Foundation Establishment competition details below, a spark of enthusiasm igniting within him.

This was his greatest opportunity to stay in Kun-Lai.

He just needed to get first place.

He was familiar with all the current Foundation Establishment competitors—except for Ye Han, but he was now generally familiar with him as well.

The Foundation Establishment competition would be held in a secret realm, gathering at Yangshuo Peak three days later at chenshi (7-9am).

From Shennong Peak, they had to take a flying beast to get there. The cost of the trip, the preparation of talismans, and all sorts of other necessities—they should be able to make it in time if they start now.

Also, make some emergency pills and pack some personal tools for setting up spiritual wards. For the competition, there’s no need to be as courteous as usual.

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

Then there’s the analysis for each opponent and the corresponding battle response to made.

That Ye Han would definitely make a lot of preparations and have a lot of nonsense to spout.

At that time…

Under the solitary lamp, Feng Qingxiu wrote down his plans and preparations, his smile gentle.

TN: bonus chapter💕

When he saw Ye Han again, Feng Qingxiu was actually a little envious.

Because after just a few days, he was already in the Foundation Establishment Stage, and it seemed that his foundation was also very stable. At least it was now impossible to flap his sleeves and send him flying like before. With such a comparison, he who took ten years to reach the Foundation Establishment Stage was as slow as a snail.

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

But then thinking about it again, if this talent was to come at the cost of his brain—he would rather give up such a talent.

“If I lose, I will naturally admit that I am inferior to you in front of everyone.” Feng Qingxiu had no complaints on this request. If it was the truth then he was not afraid of others saying so, “If you lose, I don’t want your life. Just don’t bother me for a month.”

“Hehe, if I lose then I’ll avoid you this entire year, but can you win?” Ye Han was very contemptuous. He had learned the basic talisman seals in just a few days, and could even integrate them into spiritual wards—something that the upper school didn’t teach at all, so there was no question he could defeat him.

“Then I accept,” Feng Qingxiu asked the manager for a quarter of an hour’s leave.

The manager was very reasonable, and asked if he needed more time, how about an hour?

Feng Qingxiu refused, a quarter of an hour was actually already a bit too much.

The seals written by Ye Han were wild and unrestrained, no one could recognize what he wrote, but the seals were still effective, and the speed of his writing was also very fast.

Feng Qingxiu took a look, and then picked up a talisman brush to mark Ye Han’s seals.

“What are you doing, can’t beat me so you want to cheat?” Ye Han asked angrily, reaching out to stop him.

“I don’t have talisman paper, so I will borrow yours.” Feng Qingxiu lifted his wrist and nimbly avoided Ye Han’s outstretched arm. With a flick of the brush tip, a drop of ink fell on the white paper.

The light of the seal flashed.

“This is changing the seal!?” Some onlookers exclaimed.

The strokes of a seal could be changed and added, but the requirements for the artist’s skill were simply too high. It was like adding a new instruction to a program. If one was not careful, a bug would cause the entire process to crash. Or to put it another way, the original author drew a simple stick figure, and the illustrator could use these few strokes of the stick figure to build on, creating a sketch with more vivid details. This was the advantage of possessing strong foundational skills.

Whether the change was good or not could also be seen through direct observation—if the change was correct, the seal would glow, which was a valid proof, and if the seal was incorrectly changed then there would be no glow or it would directly explode (not running or the system crashing), of course, the onlookers could only judge it to this extent. If you asked them to find out why it didn’t run or where it went wrong it would be really difficult.

“It’s just a coincidence!” Ye Han roared. It’s impossible. How could Feng Qingxiu be better than him?

So Feng Qingxiu added a few more changes to his other seals.

All were effective.

Ye Han’s face shifted between blue and white, and the onlookers watched happily and whispered to each other.

“Can’t accept a loss, huh?”

“The way I see it, Feng Qingxiu is too unlucky, not only was his wife stolen, the guy who stole her turned around to bite at him like a crazy dog.”

“What does Fairy Mingyu see in him, sure she doesn’t need to treat her eyes?”

“I heard that he has been knocking back Fasting Pills recently. Fairy Mingyu’s soft rice must be delicious, right?” (TN: someone who eats someone else’s soft rice=usually referring to men who don’t work and are supported by women)

“How long will it be till the Sect Leader leaves Seclusion? The demonic wind in Kun-Lai can no longer be suppressed. Are the people of the Mountain Patrol Bureau dead or what?”

“At least the dead don’t take up space. They pretend to be dead and still rake in spiritual stones. No wonder it is so difficult to pass their recruitment test and yet there are so many people who want to get in.”

“Don’t speak ill of us in our presence, alright. We are just in charge when there is bloodshed and conflict. This is a challenge Feng Qingxiu has accepted. Besides, you guys holding bets is a violation of the rules, okay?”

“There is no suspense at all, the odds are too low, it’s just for fun, didn’t you also bet?”

“I’m here to support righteousness! Hey, someone betted on Ye Han, is his brain flooded with water?”

“Don’t say it in such a bad sounding way, it’s just a little bit of pocket money, it doesn’t matter if I lose, but if I win it would be like entering heaven.”

***

“You—you all, shut up!” Ye Han turned his head and roared at the crowd.

“Who are you? Are you hoping to scare us to death~?”

“Yes, my health is not good, I can’t breathe…”

“Look at how you scared him into having breathing problems, make compensation quickly!”

“That’s right, think you’re so powerful just cause you got a loud voice?”

Ye Han took a deep breath, his nails digging into his palms so deep they bled, only in this way could he keep himself from rushing over and fight to the death—of the inner peaks disciples, reaching the Foundation Establishment Stage was just the most basic, and only reaching the Golden Core Formation Stage were you truly considered qualified, so if he were to pick a fight he wouldn’t even last a second.

“I lost this time, and I will do what I said,” Ye Han looked cold and resentful, “You wait for me, I will come again in a year, you can’t escape.”

“Why does it sound like a woman threatening a heartless cheating man?” Someone next to him joked.

There was a burst of laughter all around, and Feng Qingxiu also couldn’t help smiling resignedly.

Ye Han was furious, turning around he attacked the jokesters with a palm technique.

However, a bright light suddenly appeared in the sky, breaking through the clouds and landing in front of him.

Ji Mingyu no longer appeared the gentle and beautiful young lady in a white dress and veil from before, instead a white flame surrounded her like white armor.

And the anger in her eyes was far more fierce than the flames surrounding her body.

Without giving people time to respond, she grabbed Ye Han’s collar and flashed away.

Only leaving behind a crowd of gossipers.

Feng Qingxiu shook his head slightly and turned back to weigh the rice.

On the other side, when Ji Mingyu brought the captured Ye Han back, her father had already left.

She was so aggrieved that she bursted into tears.

She waited for 20 years, and finally found the courage to have her father notice her.

Just when everything had been going so well before, but now it was ruined by this idiot!

How could she reconcile with this reality!

Her father was gone again, and she didn’t know how long it would take for him to come back.

For so many years and so many days, she stood outside of her father’s wards, and could only imagine what her father looked like through the woods separating them. No matter how kind her uncles and aunts were to her, they were still not her family!

The more she thought about it, the more angry she got, punching and kicking Ye Han over and over.

Crying while handing out a vicious beating.

Ye Han also felt guilty, he didn’t dare to fight back and could only obediently take the beating and scolding, but it really did hurt…

After finally having tired herself out, Ji Mingyu walked over to another spot to cry alone.

In truth, she hadn’t cried for a long time, but this time she was really too devastated.

From childhood to adulthood, what she had heard was the greatness and the amazing deeds of her father. She had always been proud that she was his daughter. Even if her father did not care about her, she could still comfort herself with the thought that her father was just too busy cultivating.

But today, today, how could Father leave without saying a word to her, did she really disappoint him?

What to do, Father didn’t want her anymore…

“Don’t cry, there must be other ways.” Ye Han comforted her clumsily.

“What other ways?” Ji Mingyu was extremely lost, feeling as if there was nothing left to live for.

“Uh…won’t there be a big competition soon?” At this time, it was enough for him to understand what had happened. Although he was sorry to miss out on meeting the Sect Leader, he believed that so long as he got a good ranking in the Foundation Establishment Stage competition, he would definitely be able to re-enter into the sights of the Sect Leader.

“This time, I will definitely make up for it.” Ye Han promised.

Ji Mingyu looked at him with suspicion. It was not that she didn’t believe him, but that Ye Han’s assurance usually had the opposite result.

Reasonably speaking she should just throw Ye Han aside and think of other ways, but in the end she gave in.

She’ll try again, but this time if he disappointed her again she’ll throw him to the secret realm to feed the beats and monsters!

Ji Mingyu thought privately.

***

Ji Yunlai didn’t go far, but after seeing his daughter enacting domestic violence on a good-looking young man, he felt that he should not get involved with the affairs of young people. This was why he left. It was a matter of his daughter’s privacy, and it wouldn’t be good for him to eavesdrop.

He went elsewhere and checked Ye Han’s Dao Disc.

As he expected, every Kun-Lai disciple could be checked.

Ye Han, a native of Yanzhou in the Western Qin State, his father was unknown, and his mother, Ye Shu (identity still tracing), was a poor refugee who arrived in Yanzhou and then sold herself as a slave to the local Feng family. From childhood he was in charge of caring for the Feng family’s horses and on one occasion he caused the “Yufeng Beast” to recognize him as its master and no longer obey the orders of the Feng family’s young master. He was punished with a whipping and missed the Dragon-Phoenix Selection. Later, when accompanying the madam of the Feng family on an outing, he rescued Bai Qingluo from a startled horse and captured her attention. Moreover, he would weave grasshoppers and dragonflies from grass to make the young Bai Qingluo happy, and their affair gradually progressed.

Because Bai Qingluo’s marriage date with the Feng family’s young master was approaching, after Bai Qingluo objected to no results, she eloped with Ye Han. The patriarch of the Bai family personally pursued them with the intention of killing Ye Han and bringing back his daughter. In the middle of the conflict, Bai Qingluo blocked the sword strike meant for Ye Han and died at the hands of her father. Later, Ye Han was pushed into the Huaijiang River, but then rescued by Fairy Mingyu who had gone to the Huaijiang River to hunt beasts and monsters and was then brought back to Kun-Lai.

His qualifications were superb, possessing water and fire spiritual roots, in addition his innate divine ability had also been awakened. It only took three days for him to go from the Qi Condensation Stage to the Foundation Establishment Stage. Thus, he received key attention.

***

No matter how one looked at it, this was the beginning of a stallion protagonist story.

Ji Yunlai was a little unhappy. This world was real, but the book called “Kun Lai” still made him a little worried. As we all know, the main power in the plot location usually did not get a good ending.

And the hardest hit area in cultivation novels was the cultivation sect, which was simply equivalent to the protagonist’s large warehouse. No matter subordinates or women, it was always the sect providing them all for the protagonist. Moreover, there was always a rich and handsome villain there for the protagonist to faceslap.

And also, according to story logic, the Sect Leader’s daughter seemed to have always been a member of the protagonist’s harem?

Ji Yunlai couldn’t help but “hehe” twice.

He also read over the information about Ye Han’s mother, Ye Shu. There was a scroll of painting included, which was said to have been drawn by a painter who liked her.

With just a glance, he immediately felt a sense of familiarity.

“Li Shu.”

A familiar name and a familiar face, but he couldn’t remember exactly.

This was very embarrassing.

He didn’t remember, but someone must definitely remember.

Yan Zhao appeared to be someone very difficult to fool, and moreover in Kun-Lai he was not in charge of the Dao Discs.

So the target was very clear

As a result, he went to find the female cultivator in white and showed her the scroll of painting, recalling that her name was Bai Shuixian.

This junior sister let out a laugh.

“I thought you were really heartless, but now, it seems you still care about Xiao Yu.” She was very pleased, and even her eyebrows and eyes smiled. “About Li Shu, I have been aware all along. These years, we looked the other way and let her live.”

Ji Yunlai did not speak, his expression as calm as always.

When one didn’t know what expression to put on, nothing worked better than no expression.

“After you killed Li Xianjing, the power of the Li family was greatly reduced. These years, they have also been relentlessly pursued after by Su Wan.” Bai Shuixian took out a jade talisman, engraved with a dragon pattern, “This is the information I collected. Yes, back then that matter was a poisonous thorn in your heart, but it has been hundreds of years since. Senior Brother, it’s time to pull it out.”

Such a good junior sister, what he was in need of now was this, Ji Yunlai picked up the jade talisman, face expressionless but heart full of excitement.

When handing it over, Bai Shuixian suddenly snapped her hand forward, trying to grab his palm.

But naturally she couldn’t catch it.

However, what he didn’t expect was that this female cultivator would suddenly fly into a rage after.

“Still the same, I thought you changed, but you are still the same!”

This anger was inexplicable, and Ji Yunlai didn’t know how to respond.

“Before, you used to say that because the Calamity Sword energy cannot be controlled, from then on you refused to get close to any of us.” Bai Shuixian sneered with a trace of grief and anger, “But you already took Xiao Yu’s hand yesterday, and yet you still don’t want to touch us.”

Um, so there was such a case?

“You still blame us for not protecting Master and the others, don’t you?” Bai Shuixian asked sharply, her palms involuntarily squeezing into fists. Yes, she should have let it go, but she couldn’t. The past was like a net. It trapped them and they were unable to break free, unable to face it.

Ji Yunlai didn’t want to talk at first, but thinking that even if he lost his memory, he was still himself, which meant that there should be no problem voicing his thoughts.

So he said lightly: “The past cannot be traced.”

“Senior Brother,” Bai Shuixian’s voice softened a lot, even containing a hint of pleading, “What happened back then, you cannot be blamed. It’s not your fault you didn’t recognize Li Xianjing’s true character, nor know his true motives. He killed Master and everyone. Not you, so it’s not your fault!”

Ji Yunlai couldn’t respond for a while. He was thinking that if all of this were true, then there was indeed a reason for his violent behavior back then.

“Senior Brother! It’s been six hundred years! Look at Kun-Lai, look at us! Yes, Kun-Lai was destroyed, everyone died, only a few of us survived, but you have already gotten revenge, Li Xianjing is dead, how long will you live in the past?” Bai Shuixian spoke earnestly.

Ji Yunlai looked at her; there was actually such a thing?

“At that time, Li Shu secretly let us go. In the end, although most of us were caught, I still have to pay her back for the favor.” Bai Shuixian whispered, “After all, that person wouldn’t dare to come and kill her in a place where you are.”

Who’s “that person”? Ji Yunlai nearly sighed, this past thousand years of life was really colorful, but he had forgotten it all!

“So I also acquiesced to Mingyu’s rescue of Ye Han, as a way to pay her back for her mercy back then.” Bai Shuixian continued in a soft voice.

Ji Yunlai did not know how to respond, but he agreed with her in his heart.

“Senior Brother, can you change back and stop living in the past.”

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

“Is it really me who lives in the past?” Ji Yunlai suddenly felt deeply wronged, “Or are you only willing to accept the Ji Yunlai from the past?”

People would always change, and all kinds of experiences and various reasons could change their attitudes towards people and things.

Like this, did that mean he was still not himself anymore?
