Seeing that Ning Fan still remembered her, Yu Chong 'er felt a sweetness in her heart. She lowered her head and her ears felt a little warm.
Fang Sheng and Fang Si calmed themselves down from their initial shock. They stepped forward and cupped their fists at Ning Fan politely. "We have been waiting for Marquis White Robe for a long time under the Sixth Prince's order to lead the way to Heavenly Cloud."
"The Sixth Prince's order, huh …?"
Ning Fan was slightly surprised. He did not expect that Yun Youmu would send someone to greet him.
Ning Fan could not see through Yun Youmu at all. He could only vaguely feel that this person was extremely shrewd but did not follow the rules when doing things.
Was the reason why Yun Youmu sent someone to greet him purely to express his goodwill or was there another reason …?
Ning Fan withdrew his thoughts and politely cupped his fists at Fang Sheng and Fang Si. No matter what, since they greeted him with a smile, he would not treat them coldly.
"Ning Fan greets the two palace masters and fellow Daoists of the Serene Heaven Palace. It has been many years since we last met. How have you been?"
He was at most polite to Fang Sheng and Fang Si. However, he felt a sense of closeness towards Yu Bai, Yu Chong 'er and the others.
Yu Chong 'er lowered her head even more. She did not dare to meet Ning Fan's eyes at all. Her cheeks became even hotter.
"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it … I can't breathe just by looking at him … Am I sick? Yes. That must be it …"
Yu Bai and the others cupped their fists to return Ning Fan's greeting one after another. It was truly an honor to be asked by the dignified Marquis White Robe, 'I trust you'.
"Cough cough cough … If Marquis White Robe wants to catch up with your old friends, you can do so later. Why don't you follow us to the 'Serene Heaven Realm' first? The Sixth Prince has already set up a banquet with spiritual fruits and spiritual wine in the Serene Heaven Palace. He intends to entertain Marquis White Robe. Now that something has happened to the Scarlet Heaven Palace, it is temporarily uninhabitable. Fellow Daoist, you don't have to rush to the Scarlet Heaven Realm. You can stay in my Serene Heaven Realm … "Fang Sheng said.
"Something happened? What happened? "Ning Fan was stunned.
"It's a long story. If Marquis White Robe wishes to know more, you can head to the Scarlet Heaven Territory to have a look … Cough, cough, cough. The Seventh Prince seems to want to give Marquis White Robe a show of strength …" Fang Sheng replied with a sigh.
"If that's the case … Since the Scarlet Heaven Palace has encountered an accident, as the Scarlet Heaven Palace Master, I should go to the Scarlet Heaven Palace to see what's going on. I have no choice but to disappoint the two of you and go to the Serene Heaven Palace's banquet in the future."
Ning Fan stared at Fang Sheng and Fang Si meaningfully. He had a vague guess in his mind.
"Since Marquis White Robe insists on going to the Crimson Heaven Territory, we won't force you to go to the Nether Heaven Territory. If Marquis White Robe encounters any difficulties in the Crimson Heaven Territory, you can seek help from the Sixth Prince. The Sixth Prince and Marquis White Robe hit it off the moment they met, and he will definitely do his best to help Marquis White Robe overcome any difficulties. "Fang Sheng smiled meaningfully.
"Farewell!"
Ning Fan cupped his fists at everyone and stepped on a ray of travelling light. He was actually going to enter the Heavenly Cloud Nation alone and head to the Scarlet Heaven Territory.
He was still wondering why Yun Youmu had specially welcomed him, but now he understood the reason behind it.
Yun Youmu was reminding Ning Fan that the Seventh Prince, Yun Jinghong, wanted to target Ning Fan.
If Ning Fan wants to deal with the Seventh Prince, he can seek help from Yun Youmu. The Serene Heaven Palace would be Ning Fan's friend.
The reason why Yun Youmu showed goodwill to Ning Fan was probably because he was not on good terms with Yun Jinghong. He wanted to use Ning Fan to deal with Yun Jinghong.
Is this Yun Youmu's motive …? It seems like there are also open and veiled conflicts among the princes of the Rain Palace.
Ning Fan's thoughts raced. Just as he was about to leave, Yu Chong 'er boldly rushed out of the crowd and said to him. "Ning Fan, you have just arrived at the Heavenly Cloud Nation. You probably don't know the way. Let me bring you to the Scarlet Heaven Territory!"
"Chong 'er! The guardian of the Scarlet Heaven Territory, 'Cloud Lion', has all gone out of control. It's very dangerous for you to go there with your current cultivation base … Besides, you don't have Void Refinement Realm cultivation base like Marquis White Robe … "
Yu Bai's expression was anxious. He tried to dissuade Yu Chong 'er. Yu Chong' er, however, did not take his advice seriously. She pointed at Ning Fan and said. "He will protect me. Probably …"
Yu Chong 'er looked at Ning Fan with uncertainty. Without Ning Fan's protection, she would not dare to go to the Scarlet Heaven Territory.
"Alright. I have just arrived at the Heavenly Cloud Nation and I'm unfamiliar with this place. Having Miss Yu to lead the way is naturally the best. Don't worry, Brother Yu. With me around, no matter what happens in the Scarlet Heaven Territory, your sister will not be harmed at all. "
Ning Fan cupped his fists at Yu Bai. Then, he displayed his teleportation technique and brought Yu Chong 'er into the territory of the Heavenly Cloud Nation.
Looking at the two of them leaving, Yu Bai shook his head and sighed. Didn't this younger sister of his always hate Ning Fan? Why is she so enthusiastic towards him now …?
The Scarlet Heaven Territory was located in the northwest of the Heavenly Cloud Nation. Ning Fan needed to travel across a few other territories in order to reach the Scarlet Heaven Territory.
Yu Chong 'er rode on Ning Fan's travelling light as if she was stepping on a black rainbow.
She did not dare to raise her head. Her cheeks were burning hot. She would only lift her head and sneak a peek at Ning Fan occasionally when she was guiding him.
However, whenever she saw Ning Fan, she would recall the past when she gave him a kiss in the past.
In the past, in order to give the blood of an Insect Sovereign to Ning Fan to heal his injuries, she had given him her first kiss …
"I must be sick … Otherwise, why would I volunteer to lead the way for him … Am I crazy? The Scarlet Heaven Territory is so dangerous and yet I still ran over there …"
"I'm finished. I'm so nervous … What should I say to him … My mind is completely blank now …"
The way she lowered her head made her look like a frightened ostrich.
Ning Fan could not help but find it funny. Was this still the Yu Chong 'er he knew?
In his memory, Yu Chong 'er hated devil cultivators to the core. She often mocked and ridiculed him. She even kissed him forcefully and used him as a pillow when she was asleep … Today, however, she was very obedient and quiet. She did not say anything unnecessary.
He secretly used the Mind Reading Technique to read through Yu Chong 'er's thoughts. He did not know whether to laugh or cry. It turned out that Yu Chong 'er did not become quiet. She was just too nervous and did not know what to say to him.
"Aren't you going to introduce me to the local conditions and customs of the Heavenly Cloud Nation?" Ning Fan reminded her.
"That's right. Let me introduce you to the Heavenly Cloud Nation. It's the capital of the Rain World. In terms of prosperity, none of the eight hundred cultivation countries in the Rain World can compare to it."
Yu Chong 'er nagged and began to introduce the local conditions and customs of the country to Ning Fan.
The Heavenly Cloud Nation was a country of clouds and mist. All the palaces and pavilions in the country were built with clouds and mist. Clouds could be seen everywhere in the sky.
The entire Heavenly Cloud Nation was enveloped by layers of formation light made of clouds and mist. The formation light was at the Peak Immortal Void Realm. Even an ordinary Void Fragmentation Realm cultivator would not be able to break this country's protective cloud formation.
"This formation is called the 'Cloud Sea Mist Formation'. It is a grand formation that was set up by a certain Rain Sovereign in the previous generation. It can use the light of the clouds to eliminate enemies. It is said that several hundred thousand years ago, millions of bandits attacked the Heavenly Cloud Nation. There were even three First Heavenly Layer Void Fragmentation Realm cultivators among them … In the end, all of them were killed by this formation …" Yu Chong 'er explained. When she imagined the scene where millions of people died, she felt a little scared.
"It can even kill Void Fragmentation Realm cultivators …?" Ning Fan's gaze swept across the grand formation. Even with his Heart Formation Realm cultivation base, he still could not see through all the changes of this formation.
"The Heavenly Cloud Nation is divided into ten territories. Each of them is as big as an entire Void Grade Cultivation Country. The cultivators here not only build their houses using clouds but also use them to create escape treasures … In the ten territories of the Heavenly Cloud Nation, each of them has a nine hundred thousand zhang * tall cloud. On the peak of the cloud mountain, a branch of the Rain Palace is built … The Heavenly Cloud Nation is very vast. We have just reached the Yang Heaven Realm. "
As soon as Yu Chong 'er finished speaking, she pointed to the surroundings.
Far away, they could vaguely see a towering cloud mountain. On top of that mountain, a magnificent palace was built. It was the Yang Heaven Palace.
Cultivators could be seen everywhere in the sky. Most of them were riding on immortal clouds and using them to escape.
Each of those immortal clouds had different colors. Each of them was engraved with cloud patterns. The more cloud patterns there were, the faster they would be able to escape.
A Two-Mark Immortal Jade was equivalent to the escaping speed of a Harmonious Spirit Realm cultivator. A Three-Mark Gold Core, a Four-Mark Nascent Soul, a Five-Mark Immortal Cloud was equivalent to the escaping speed of a Divine Transformation Realm cultivator. As for Six-Mark Immortal Clouds, they were very rare.
These immortal clouds did not need any magic power to drive them. Without a doubt, they were spiritual equipment.
"These are the Immortal Cloud Spiritual Equipment produced by the Flowing Cloud Valley. It's a technique unique to the Rain World. Cultivators from other worlds often purchase immortal clouds from the Flowing Cloud Valley …" Yu Chong 'er introduced.
"The Flowing Cloud Valley of the thirteen sects, huh … I wonder if there are any Seven Marks Immortal Clouds for sale there?" Ning Fan inquired.
A Seven Marks Immortal Cloud should have the speed of a Void Fragmentation Realm cultivator. Moreover, it would not consume any magic power to fly.
If he could buy a Seven Marks Immortal Cloud Spiritual Equipment and refine it into his body, it would be a wonderful thing.
"Tsk. You wish. A Seven Marks Immortal Cloud is a Profound Divinity spiritual equipment. Even if the Flowing Cloud Valley has such a supreme treasure, they won't be willing to sell it. They won't be able to buy it!" Yu Chong 'er gradually became cheerful and no longer felt nervous.
"That's really a pity …" Ning Fan did not mind it. It was not like he had to buy an immortal cloud.
In the past, he had heard that the Rain World was rich in immortal clouds. Today, he finally got to see the scene of tens of thousands of cultivators riding on clouds.
If he goes to the Sword World, he should be able to see the scene of tens of thousands of cultivators riding on swords.
If he goes to the Tree World, he wondered what kind of scene he would see …
Ning Fan's speed was not slow but the Heavenly Cloud Nation was just too vast. Three days later, the two of them arrived at the border of the Scarlet Heaven Territory.
With a beauty accompanying him along the way, he would not feel lonely.
As soon as he entered the Scarlet Heaven Territory, a group of cultivators flew up and blocked his way. They shouted coldly.
"Halt your steps! According to the Seventh Prince's order, all the cloud lions in the Scarlet Heaven Territory are now out of control. No one is allowed to enter the Scarlet Heaven Territory to avoid being killed by the cloud lions! "
Each of the cultivators in this group had a Mid Divine Transformation Realm cultivation base and above. The leader was a Late Divine Transformation Realm cultivator.
Each of the cultivators' clothes had a scarlet cloud emblem on it. It was the emblem of the Scarlet Heaven Palace.
Without a doubt, these cultivators were the members of the Scarlet Heaven Palace.
Ning Fan stopped and glanced at the Scarlet Heaven Territory. He saw hundreds of thousands of stone lion statues flying in the sky that was surrounded by clouds and mist.
The qi of these stone lions varied in strength. The weak ones were only equivalent to the Harmonious Spirit Realm while the strong ones were even at the Divine Transformation Realm.
Ning Fan spread out his spirit sense and found that there were at least one thousand Divine Transformation Realm stone lions in the sky above the Scarlet Heaven Territory.
These stone lions were not living creatures. Instead, they were stone lion puppets that were made from a kind of hard cloud called 'Stone Cloud'.
Ning Fan had once entered the seclusion grounds of the previous Rain Sovereigns in the Blood Dragon Pool. There were twelve stone lions guarding the entrance and each of them had Void Fragmentation Realm qi …
The stone lions in the Blood Dragon Pool looked similar to the stone lions in this place. However, they were much stronger.
Besides, the stone lions in the Blood Dragon Pool must be rooted in the ground and could not move. The stone lions in this place were more like puppets. Even though their limbs were stiff, they could fly and move.
"So these stone lions are called cloud lions …?" Ning Fan muttered to himself.
"Yes. Cloud lions are a secret technique unique to the Rain Palace. There are two types of them. One of them is the cloud lion puppet. It can move but its cultivation base cannot exceed the Divine Transformation Realm. The other type is the cloud lion statue. Even though it can't move, it can step on the ground and is very powerful. I heard that there are several Void Fragmentation Realm cloud lion statues guarding the place where the Rain Sovereign is in seclusion … "
Yu Chong 'er looked at the sky with a hint of fear.
Hundreds of thousands of stone lions had lost control and were flying in the sky. Once any cultivators enter the depths of the Scarlet Heaven Territory, they would join forces to kill them.
Ning Fan's eyes narrowed and a cold light flashed across them.
Hundreds of thousands of stone lions of the Rain Palace had gone out of control. This could be considered as a major incident but no one could deal with these stone lions …
Even though there were many stone lions, the strongest among them was only at the Divine Transformation Realm. If a true expert were to take action, it would not be difficult for them to subdue all of the stone lions.
Was there someone who purposely did not allow anyone to deal with these stone lions? Was he trying to intimidate Ning Fan with these stone lions?
Ning Fan smiled disdainfully. Just one thousand Divine Transformation Realm cloud lions wanted to intimidate him? Yun Jinghong seemed to have underestimated him.
Descending from the sky, Ning Fan led Yu Chong 'er and slowly walked into the Scarlet Heaven Territory.
"How dare you! Who are you? How dare you defy the Seventh Prince's order and trespass into the Scarlet Heaven Territory?! "
"Take him down!"
The group of Divine Transformation Realm cultivators surrounded Ning Fan and spoke arrogantly.
Ning Fan did not say much. He just released his baleful qi and immediately dyed the clouds of the entire Scarlet Heaven Territory red!
At this moment, the Scarlet Heaven Territory really turned into a world with a red sky!
That baleful qi contained all of Ning Fan's killings in his life. It even contained the baleful qi left behind by Bone Sovereign.
At the moment when the baleful qi spread, the group of Divine Transformation Realm cultivators was greatly shocked. They felt a sharp pain in their chests and retreated while coughing out blood. Their faces were filled with shock.
Even the Cloud Lion puppets that were flying in the sky without any spiritual intelligence began to tremble in fear!
At this moment, a black crescent mark rose in Ning Fan's left eye. His expression became stern and cold.
With just a single gaze, the bodies of the hundreds of thousands of Cloud Lions that had lost control trembled. They descended to the ground and knelt down respectfully towards Ning Fan. They no longer showed any signs of losing control!
The reason why these Cloud Lion puppets had lost control was because they were secretly attacked by someone.
However, with just a single gaze, Ning Fan made all of them return to normal and willingly serve him as their master!
"Mar-Marquis White Robe!" The group of Divine Transformation Realm cultivators finally recognized the identity of the intruder from Ning Fan's extremely terrifying baleful qi. Each of them was extremely terrified!
...
On the peak of a mountain far away, a middle-aged man in green robes stood proudly. His body was surrounded by swirling clouds of light. His cold eyes were looking in the direction of the Scarlet Heaven Territory.
He was the Seventh Prince of the Rain Palace – Yun Jinghong! He was the Void Fragmentation Realm expert who guarded the Scarlet Heaven Palace!
Originally, he was quietly watching Ning Fan enter the Scarlet Heaven Territory, waiting to see the scene where Ning Fan was exhausted from dealing with the hundreds of thousands of Cloud Lions.
Among the hundreds of thousands of Cloud Lions, there were more than one thousand Divine Transformation Realm Cloud Lions. Even a Void Pierce Stage expert would not dare to recklessly face this army of Cloud Lions!
From Yun Jinghong's point of view, if Ning Fan goes against this army of Cloud Lions with his low cultivation base, he would certainly be severely injured if not dead.
Of course, he would not watch Ning Fan die. After Ning Fan is severely injured, he would take action to protect him from death. Ning Fan still had some value to him. Even though he could not kill him, he could still teach him a lesson!
"There's no need to watch anymore. This young man has already entered the Scarlet Heaven Territory. The hundreds of thousands of Cloud Lions are fearful of him. He certainly won't be able to escape!"
Yun Jinghong smiled coldly and closed his eyes in a conceited manner. However, at the next moment, he suddenly opened his eyes and saw a scene that he could not believe!
With just a single gaze, Ning Fan made the hundreds of thousands of Cloud Lions that had lost control return to normal and kneel respectfully on the ground!
The Cloud Lions were just puppets. Their spiritual intelligence was even lower. They would not kneel to anyone at all. Why would they kneel to Ning Fan?!
Why was Ning Fan able to make all the Cloud Lions return to normal in just a breath's time?!
What made Yun Jinghong even more astonished was that the blood-red clouds that covered the sky of the Scarlet Heaven Realm were dyed red by Ning Fan's baleful qi!
At this moment, Ning Fan who was standing in the Scarlet Heaven Realm suddenly turned his head and looked at Yun Jinghong coldly.
Just a single gaze contained all the killings that Ning Fan had committed in his entire life!
Just a single gaze gave Yun Jinghong a sense of danger that he had never felt before. It was as if the young man in front of him was not Ning Fan but a peerless ferocious beast that could tear the Void Fragmentation Realm apart!
With just a single gaze, even the Heavenly Dao could no longer tolerate the sins that he had committed!
Yun Jinghong was caught off guard. When he met Ning Fan's extremely cold baleful gaze, he immediately felt a sharp pain in his chest. His blood and qi were in a mess and he nearly fell off the mountain peak!
"How is this possible?! Why does this young man have such a terrifying baleful qi? Even I can't withstand his aura force! "
"Could it be that he has killed Void Fragmentation Realm cultivators before?! No. This is absolutely impossible! There are no Void Fragmentation Realm cultivators who have fallen in the Rain World. Besides, Void Fragmentation Realm cultivators are renowned throughout the entire world. How is it possible for him to kill them? He is just an ant! "
Even though Yun Jinghong's tone was cold, his eyes no longer dared to look in Ning Fan's direction.
The pain in his chest gradually intensified. It was actually a sign that his mind was being invaded by the baleful qi.
Yun Jinghong no longer dared to stay in this place. He immediately turned into a ray of travelling light and left. He must immediately enter seclusion and erase the baleful qi in his mind to prevent it from being tainted …
In the Scarlet Heaven Realm, Ning Fan looked at Yun Jinghong's travelling light that was getting further away. He withdrew the baleful qi that filled the sky and his eyes gradually darkened.
"As expected, it's Yun Jinghong … That Yun Youmu didn't lie to me."
Then, he turned his head and said to Yu Chong 'er with a faint smile. "Let's go. Bring me to the Scarlet Heaven Palace."
His smile was as warm as the spring breeze. There was not a single trace of baleful qi in his eyes.
"Oh … Oh …" Yu Chong 'er was still covering her lips with her hands. She was still in a state of shock.
It had only been more than ten years since they last met. However, Ning Fan was able to subdue hundreds of thousands of spiritual puppets with just a single gaze … It was just too unbelievable!
"How did you do it?" Yu Chong 'er asked curiously.
"It's a secret … If you want to know, come to my room tonight. We can talk in private." Ning Fan teased.
"Tch. Get lost!" Yu Chong 'er's pretty face was filled with anger and embarrassment. Her heart was about to leap out from her throat.
Go to hell! Go to hell! She would rather die than to be alone with Ning Fan in a room and have a private chat with him … The righteous path and the devil path are irreconcilable, alright?
Perhaps … Maybe, just maybe …
It doesn't seem too bad to have a private chat with him … If Ning Fan promises not to kiss her …
