Diao Fei followed Wang Pushi to a square room in the corner of the floor. He saw that the room was empty. The snow-white walls, floor, and ceiling were covered in runes and runes, leaving behind many grooves.
Wang Pushi placed the spirit stones in and activated the formation. With a flash of light, an illusory figure appeared in the room. It flickered for a moment before stabilizing. It was an attendant dressed in green. He bowed and said, "Sir, why did you activate the illusion formation?"
"The commander of the Clear River prefecture, Wang Pushi, has an extremely urgent matter, so I wish to meet with ma 'am Gu!" Wang Pushi clasped his hands, placing emphasis on the word' meet '.
"Sir, please wait a moment."
When Gu Yanying heard that Wang Pushi had something urgent to discuss with her and had even activated the Illusory Formation, she could not help feeling curious. When she arrived at the room with the Illusory Formation, she saw Wang Pushi's image and asked with a smile, "Old Wang, what happened to make you so anxious?"
Wang Pu bowed and pulled Diao Fei to his side. "Repeat what you said just now."
"Subordinate Diao Fei greets Lord Gu!" Diao Fei lowered his head, not daring to look directly at the white-clothed figure. He recounted everything from the beginning to the end.
At first, Gu Yanying looked relaxed, but her smile gradually disappeared. In the end, she felt helpless. There was smoke everywhere, but why did it have to be here that caught fire in the end?
"Do you know why that demon came?" He did not kill anyone else and only killed the three elders. Not only did Wang Pushi find this strange, but Gu Yanying sank into her thoughts as well. The pitch-black arm that extended from the hall and the scarlet-red eyes made her think of something.
However, he immediately dispelled this thought. How could this be possible? The leap from Daemon to Daemon General was like a chasm between heaven and earth. Even if it took a hundred years, it would still be considered fast.
"This subordinate does not know?"
"Do you remember what that monster looked like?"
"I can't remember." Diao Fei was afraid that his gaze would attract the Demon General's attention, so he didn't dare to look any further. At that time, he clearly remembered many characteristics, but in the end, the only thing that remained in his heart was that pair of charcoal-like crimson eyes.
"Isn't Chu Shidao in Clear River? Let him draw! "
Wang Pushi hurried to the Hundred Schools of Thought.
…
"Father. Why have you come? "In the Hundred Schools of Thought, Yu Zijian grabbed Yu Shukuang's hand in surprise and joy.
Yu Shukuang knew this was an important matter, so he was afraid to speak carelessly about the Green Vine mountain. All he said was, "I missed you, so I came to see you, alright? Sigh. You've really grown up. You're exactly the same as your mother. No, you're even more beautiful than your mother. "
Yu Zijian wore azure daoist robes. Her hair was tied up into a bun, and she carried the Nine Yang sword on her back. Her attire was simple. However, it seemed even more pure, beautiful, and spotless.
In just two years, she had reached the fifth layer of the Aura Training realm, and this was because the slovenly daoist wanted her to build a good foundation. Otherwise, he would have been able to cultivate even faster. His entire person was like a piece of unpolished jade that had its stone shell shaved off bit by bit. Only a trace of flawlessness was revealed, yet it was filled with boundless brilliance. Unknowingly, her figure had also become slender.
"Why not? In the past, I let you come. Why haven't you come? Has something happened at home? "Yu Zijian asked in doubt.
Yu Shukuang knew his daughter was not as easy to coax as before, so he suppressed his voice. "I can't tell you right now. I'll tell you later. "
"You're acting so mysterious. Then, have you heard about Niu Juxia's whereabouts recently?" Worry immediately filled Yu Zijian's clear face.
It was this question again!
Yu Shukuang and Yu Lian exchanged glances. Yu Shukuang smiled bitterly. "Don't worry! He's doing better than you! "
"How do you know? Do you have news of him? "Yu Zijian grabbed Yu Shukuang's arm and asked urgently.
You're the one who told me! Yu Shukuang had only obtained news of Li Qingshan from Yu Zijian's letter when she mentioned the interesting matters of the Hundred Schools of Thought. However, he could not say, "Father swears on his dignity. Alright. I do have news of him, but I can't tell you. That's what he wants. "
"Is he really fine?"
"He's really fine."
"Then why hasn't he come to find me? You've made me worry for him." Yu Zijian felt like a boulder had been lifted from her heart. She smiled and began to daydream again.
However, Yu Shukuang was worried inside. Has this girl really fallen in love with Li Qingshan? It's been two years, but she still hasn't been able to forget about him. She's already grown into a woman. Sigh, it's time for men and women to get married.
Qing Teng had said something about severing his emotions and devoting himself to cultivation, but he did not believe that. He understood the pain of being alone the best. How could a person not have a companion in life?
He had to properly watch over her when it came to this. That kid might be a little stubborn, but he's not bad. Should he tell her about his identity? Once they met, he had to discuss it with him.
Yu Zijian happily toured around Wuwei island with Yu Zijian and Yu Lian. As for Yu Shukuang, he pretended to ask about Li Qingshan unintentionally.
"Oh, you mean senior brother Li? He's already at the eighth layer, and he clashed with that senior brother Chu I mentioned to you a while ago. In the end, he defeated him in a single stroke. How impressive!"
Yu Shukuang nodded in satisfaction. Only a cultivation like that is worthy of my daughter. Now that he's my son-in-law, he won't be able to show me any respect anymore!
"He's been in the alchemy room with senior sister Ru Xin for so long. Once senior sister Han comes out, she probably won't spare him. Hehe, that's what Chenglu said."
"What's going on with senior sister Ru Xin and senior sister Han?"
Yu Zijian told Yu Shukuang about the gossip in great interest. She noticed the changes in Yu Shukuang's expression and asked in surprise, "Father, what's wrong?"
"Nothing. Oh my, what's the name of this mountain?" Yu Shukuang smiled dryly. As it turned out, Li Qingshan was quite a playboy. Fortunately, he had not told her about Niu Juxia's true identity out of impulse. He could not let his daughter become involved in this.
Gu Yanying waited for a while, and Wang Pushi brought over a young man. He reported, "Master Chu has already retired from painting. He no longer paints. This is his final disciple, Chu Danqing. He can also take on the role."
Chu Danqing was stunned when he saw Gu Yanying. He had seen Chu Shidao paint thousands of beauties, but none of them could rival even a fraction of her beauty. Instinctively, he sketched out a painting for her, but he immediately felt like he was unable to draw it. Even if he managed to draw it, it would barely have any charm. She was just a regular beauty.
"So you're Chu Danqing. Your master has hidden you really well. If you want to look, you can look later. Hurry up and paint!"
Chu Danqing returned to his senses. His face was bright red from embarrassment. He turned to Diao Fei and said, "Please close your eyes and carefully recall the situation back then. Then relax your mind."
Diao Fei closed his eyes. Chu Danqing pressed a finger against Diao Fei's forehead while his other hand moved like the wind, painting on the paper. His expression also returned to normal.
A single strand of weasel hair spat out a riot of colours. Sometimes, it would fold up and draw carefully, and at other times, it would spread out in thick, heavy colours. Immediately, a brightly-coloured painting leapt onto the paper.
Chu Danqing blew on it gently and showed the painting to Diao Fei first. "Look, it's like this."
The nightmarish, scarlet eyes filled his vision once again. Diao Fei was alarmed and took half a step back. Only then did he see the entire painting. On the ruins, there was a black silhouette, a dark-red moon, a raised ice blade, and drifting long hair. The various details that he had lost in his memories had all been retrieved. It was basically even more detailed and vivid than what he had seen back then.
"Yes, it is."
Wang Pushi could not help but look at the painting too. He wanted to see just what kind of person could kill the three elders and make Diao Fei so afraid.
All he saw was the life-like figure in the painting, as if he was about to leap out and swing his blade down. He was slightly surprised inside, What a painting! What a murderous aura! Am I supposed to be this daemon's opponent?
Then, Chu Danqing lowered his head and presented the painting to Gu Yanying. With just a single glance, Gu Yanying confirmed the identity of the person in the painting with her daemon half. It was just like how humans could not tell the difference between two magpies, but in the eyes of their own kind, these special characteristics were basically as obvious as labels.
Wasn't this that kid?
For once, Wang Pushi found a sliver of surprise on Gu Yanying's face.
Gu Yanying waved her jade folding fan gently. How strange! How strange!
On the Ice Sword cliff, just when she thought he would embark on the path of daemons, he returned to become a Hawkwolf guard. Just when she thought he would choose the path of human cultivation, he turned into a daemon again and risked his life to fight for a Daemon General.
In the blink of an eye, he had already become a Daemon General. He had surpassed many daemons and barriers that would take hundreds or even thousands of years to cross, claiming the lives of three Foundation Establishment cultivators as soon as he struck.
She had never encountered such an unfathomable person before. Interesting, interesting!
If that was the case, everything made sense. The reason why he had sought out the three elders was for revenge! Because he was originally a human, he possessed a sliver of benevolence and did not commit a massacre.
Several thousand kilometers apart, the two rooms fell silent at the same time, quietly awaiting her orders.
Gu Yanying folded her folding fan and struck her palm gently. "I might have to pay a visit to the Clear River prefecture later. I'll send someone to investigate first!"
Wang Pushi was rather troubled. "Little Hua and Qiongzhi are both in secluded cultivation. I'd better go personally!"
"It's inconvenient for you to do so. Isn't there a Li Qingshan? I heard he's in the limelight, and he's very powerful. Get him to investigate properly and write me a document when he returns. I want to hear his thoughts on the case. "Gu Yanying's eyes flickered with light as she seemed to smile.
Little bro Qingshan, are you in such a hurry to throw those words right in front of me?
"Yes, I'll summon him right now. Is there anything else you need me to do?" Wang Pushi said. As it seemed, commander Gu really did view this Li Qingshan in a new light. She had actually left such an important matter to him, even praising his strength. It was unbelievable. However, he was unable to connect the brazen, reckless daemon in the painting to the primary disciple of the school of Novels, Li Qingshan.
"Old Wang, what's bound to come will come!" Gu Yanying said slowly. Her eyes swiveled. "Very well done. Your painting skills will definitely surpass your master's in the future."
Chu Danqing was taken aback. Only then did he realise she was talking about him. He raised his head, but the figure had already vanished. He felt lost inside, but he also understood something. If he looked at the Heavenly Maiden Scattering the Blossoms again, he would definitely see her!
