The arrow spirit, who was still standing next to Zhu Yao earlier and was charred black by the heavenly lightning bolt, simply felt a flash of red light in front of his eyes, and he instantly appeared in a foreign land.
This place was beautiful, divine herbs were everywhere, and divine energy was dense. It was a treasured land for cultivation. If not for a man emitting a cold aura and a demonic beast baring its fangs, the arrow spirit's legs trembled.
The arrow spirit's legs trembled, and he knelt on the ground in fright from the aura of the man and the beast. He could not see through the man's cultivation, but he could clearly feel a killing intent that he could not resist.
As expected, with a loud boom, a heavenly lightning bolt struck straight towards him. The arrow spirit, whose original body was made of metal, still had some natural resistance towards electricity. However, he could not withstand the continuous strikes.
The arrow spirit felt that he had suffered the most inhumane abuse ever since he gained his human form. The lightning bolts struck him back to his original form, and he lost consciousness.
"Master?" Zhu Yao's doubtful voice sounded from the sky. After looking within herself, she realized that the space had instantly shrunk by a lot. It was initially a boundless world, but now, it was only the size of a small farmhouse. "Just what's going on?"
Yu Yan frowned. "It's probably because this world has already recognized this person as its master."
"Recognized? That pig-headed arrow!? "
Yu Yan nodded. "A mustard seed space is also a spiritual object, so it will naturally recognize its master. However, I never expected that the method to activate this space would actually be through a blood contract, and only a drop of blood from the other party's heart is required. "
Zhu Yao instantly recalled the blood that covered her entire face from the pig-headed arrow, and she instantly felt like crying. Who said that good people would be rewarded? Come out! I don't want to see injustice in my entire life anymore.
"Then, why did the space become so small?"
"It's probably because this spirit's cultivation is too weak, and is unable to fully utilize the space. That's why it's like this."
"Is there any way to remove it?"
"Not for now."
"Could it be. I'm going to bind this pig-headed arrow to myself in the future! "
Yu Yan did not reply, and simply lowered his head to look at the half-broken arrow that had been struck by him, revealing its original form. Thinking that in the future, an arrow spirit like this would follow his disciple, he suddenly felt that he should strike him a few more times.
— — — —
When the arrow spirit woke up, he was no longer in that terrifying place. Even the wounds on his face had disappeared. As for the little girl who had beaten him into a pig's head … He was sitting not far away. She looked at him with a smile.
"You're awake?" The little girl patted him on the shoulder and smiled even wider.
The Arrow Spirit still hadn't come to his senses and nodded in a daze. "I … you?" Suddenly remembering the thunderbolts that had almost killed him, the arrow spirit trembled and knelt down with a thud. "Great Immortal, please spare me. I won't dare to do it again. "
"What are you trembling for!?" Zhu Yao rolled her eyes at him. Otherwise, I wouldn't have saved you and helped you regain your human form. "
The Arrow Spirit was stunned. He seemed to understand the meaning of her words and was instantly moved to the extreme. "Great Immortal saved me?"
To be precise, it was her master who did it. She was only responsible for pulling him out. That's right. Only this Arrow Spirit could freely enter and exit the space.
"Yes, it's me. You mean it … Why are you crying? "
The Arrow Spirit was moved to the point where his tears and snot were mixed together. That miserable look gave Zhu Yao a fright. "Great Immortal actually saved this little one … Thank you, Great Immortal. Wuuuuu …"
Do you have to be so moved so easily? What happened to your basic professional ethics as a little hoodlum? It's very scary to cry like this, alright?
"Wuuuuu, great Immortal's great kindness, this little spirit is unable to repay it. I can only repay it with my body …"
"Stop." Keep dreaming. "There's no need for me to repay you. It's fine as long as you don't backstab me again."
"Backstab?" The Arrow Spirit was startled, his ugly face twisted. "This little one has never backstab great Immortal?"
"You're still denying it? What's with that talisman earlier? " If he had not thrown the talisman at her, she wouldn't have summoned the heavenly lightning to strike him, and she wouldn't have been bound just like that with his face covered in blood.
"Talisman?" The Arrow Spirit was startled. His extremely savage face instantly revealed a hint of sincerity. "Back then, this little one wanted to present a treasure to great Immortal. That was a talisman. Back then, great Immortal spared this little one's life, and this little one wanted to present the treasure. Who knew that Immortal would … "
"Do you think I'm stupid?" Zhu Yao glared at him. "That talisman was clearly an explosion talisman. The moment it is opened, it will automatically explode. If I did not coincidentally disperse it with the heavenly lightning, I would have long been blasted into smithereens by you."
"Explosion talisman? Impossible. This talisman was clearly personally bestowed to this little one by a Gold Deity senior to aid in my cultivation. "The Arrow Spirit's face was filled with confusion and disbelief.
Zhu Yao frowned. Looking at him, it seemed like he really did not know that the talisman would explode. Recalling the position he was standing at earlier, if the talisman had truly exploded, he would have been implicated as well.
"Why did that Gold Deity give you a talisman?"
The Arrow Spirit was stunned for a moment, and for a moment, he began to feel a little embarrassed. He chuckled a few times. "I heard that dual cultivation is fast, so I have always been looking for a dual cultivator. That great Immortal told me that I can find one in the city, and even gave me this talisman. He said that as long as I can find a dual cultivator, I can use this talisman to increase my cultivation speed. "
"So, you're sincerely looking for that woman for dual cultivation, and not because you want to capture her as a furnace?"
"That's right, that's right."
"That's right, your sister!" Zhu Yao slapped his head. "Is this how you pick up girls? If you want to dual cultivate with someone, why don't you talk about it properly? Instead, you're acting like a hoodlum. "
"Great Deity is right."
From the looks of it, this Arrow Spirit was being used by someone. That Gold Deity clearly wanted to use him to kill that woman, and that talisman was meant to silence her.
However, most likely, that Gold Deity himself did not expect that this guy was just an empty shell. Although he was filled with a fiendish aura, his martial strength was only at the trashy level of five. And she was an innocent passerby who was implicated.
That woman's cultivation was not even stable as an Earth Deity, most likely, she had just ascended not too long ago. So, why would she form a grudge with a Gold Deity? "Are you still able to find that Gold Deity?"
The Arrow Spirit rubbed the place where he was slapped, and shook his head. "But, I just saw him in the city yesterday. Perhaps, he's still there."
"Come, let's enter the city." Zhu Yao summoned her divine sword. Grabbing onto the Arrow Spirit, she flew towards the city that was filled with multicolored lights.
"Great Deity Po, this little one saw that Gold Deity in the south of the city."
"Great Deity Po?" What the hell was that?
"Great Deity's great name, isn't it 'Throat Po'?"
You're Throat Po, your entire family's Throat Po. "My surname is Zhu."
"Ah?"
Your sister's' ah '! "What's your name?"
"This little one's transformation time is short, so I have yet to name myself. Everyone calls me Arrow Spirit. Why don't Po … Great Deity Zhu give me a name? "He had long changed his name, it was just that he could not find a suitable one.
"Lowly, and cunning. Indeed, it doesn't sound good. Alright! I'll help you find one then. "Zhu Yao patted on her chest, her face was filled with confidence. What name? She was the best at it.
The Arrow Spirit's eyes instantly shone. "Thank you, Great Deity."
"Mn …" Zhu Yao pondered for a moment. "Look at the fiendish aura you're emitting, and you're even in the form of a weapon. Your body is constructed from divine crystals. Although it's damaged, it's still considered a divine grade weapon. Why don't you call yourself … "
"What?"
"Li Goudan!"
"…" The Arrow Spirit's face, which was filled with anticipation, instantly stiffened. "Great … Great Deity, I'm not a dog spirit." Why did he have to be called Goudan? And where did his surname Li come from?
"Haah. Don't mind these details. Goudan sounds so nice. He's domineering, easy to raise, and catchy too. "
"But …" Why did he feel that something was a little strange?
"You must know, it's very dangerous for a little spirit like you to roam the Divine Realm. With a domineering name, it can increase your chances of survival, you know? In the future, you won't have to be afraid of being beaten up by others."
"I see!" The Arrow Spirit's face shook, as he heavily nodded his head. He looked at her excitedly. "Goudan thanks Great Deity for bestowing a name. I will definitely work hard in my cultivation."
"Mn, you're worth teaching!" She was definitely not trying to find a sense of balance with the name Blossom Jade, nor was she trying to take revenge on the dimensional space that was suddenly bound to her.
For some reason, when she heard the name Goudan, she suddenly felt that the entire world had become a little fresh!

The two of them did not fly for long before they arrived at the city entrance. This city did not have any city walls, and its surroundings were surrounded by a layer of transparent, barrier like formations. At the entrance, there was a gigantic wooden plaque floating in the air, and the name of the city was written on it.
Two simple and crude words – Divine City.
Mn, it was rather fitting.
The city entrance did not have many guards, and there were many Deities coming and going. The moment they entered, it was a completely different world. There was a gourd floating here, a pumpkin floating there, a corn floating on the left, and a watermelon floating on the right.
However, those objects were all incomparably huge, as though they were the size of buildings. Only when she saw the Deities walking in and out of the buildings, did she realize that they were really buildings.
The standard of construction in the Divine Realm was pretty advanced, huh. Zhu Yao felt as though she had transmigrated into some sort of fruit fantasy world.
Student Goudan, the Arrow Spirit, brought her directly towards the south of the city, and only stopped when they arrived in front of a winter melon building. Don't ask her why the south of the city was a winter melon, and not a pumpkin. What was there in the east of the city? She could not do anything about the plants growing in the wrong place.
Goudan brought his things in, and asked the owner of the building. As expected, that Gold Deity was no longer here. Most probably, in order to not expose his identity, he even thought of using someone else to do his dirty work. Naturally, he would not stay and wait for someone to settle the score.
They then went around the city to ask around, but no one had seen that Gold Deity. Zhu Yao suspected that even that person's appearance was a human form. Seeing that she had suffered a loss this time, she could only admit that she was unlucky.
After running around for a day, the sky was already dark. Zhu Yao decided to stay in the city for a night, and stayed in a building that looked especially like a sugar cane. She had to admit that the owner was pretty creative. The sugar cane was divided into sections, and every section was a room on the first floor.
That was a place similar to an inn. However, these were not ordinary rooms, but cultivation caves filled with dense divine energy. She could stay there for a short period of time, and she could also cultivate there for a long period of time.
She stayed in the fifth section, and Goudan was downstairs. Just when Zhu Yao was about to close the door and rest, she saw a familiar figure in front of her.
Wasn't that person …
What a coincidence, fate! (To be continued)
