Ye Tianxin was confused. "Brackish Mountain? Where are we? "
She had never heard of this place before. It sounded like a small, unknown place, or a remote mountain village.
Yu Shangrong said honestly,
"That's my hometown … a place that has lost its taste. Apart from coldness and darkness, there's nothing left."
Ye Tianxin was even more puzzled.
He didn't know why Second Senior Brother would describe his hometown as cold and dark.
At the very least, he could return to his hometown.
The Bai people had nowhere to go.
Thinking of this, Ye Tianxin sighed and said, "Second Senior Brother, will you blame me?"
"I've heard about you," Yu Shangrong said.
Ye Tianxin was delighted to hear that.
This meant that Second Senior Brother did not blame him.
She suddenly recalled her conversation with her Seventh Junior Brother, Si Wuya. She asked, "Second Senior Brother, do you believe that there are people in this world who can live for 2,000 years?"
Yu Shangrong was slightly stunned.
This question was somewhat heartless to the people of the Nobleman Nation.
A thousand years of cultivation was already a luxury, what more two thousand years?
"You believe me?"
"Second Senior Brother … I've been looking for something all this time. Its name was Cheng Huang. Many people say that once you have Cheng Huang, you'll be able to live up to 2,000 years old … However, I've been looking for it for a long time, but to no avail. "
If this question was asked by anyone else, they would probably advise her to stop persisting.
However, Yu Shangrong was different.
People didn't necessarily have to reach a certain goal in life.
The greatest driving force in life was to always keep hope in one's heart.
Yu Shangrong smiled.
"Then I shall persevere and search slowly …"
"Even if the chances are slim?"
"It's better than having no hope at all."
Ye Tianxin was at a loss for words.
Little hope was better than no hope at all.
"Thank you for enlightening me, Second Senior Brother …" Ye Tianxin bowed.
Yu Shangrong nodded. "The sun's about to set … You should head back soon, junior sister."
"En, take care, Senior Brother."
Ye Tianxin bowed and turned to leave.
The sun was about to set … The area below the mountain peak was plunged into darkness.
Yu Shangrong did not move. Instead, he watched the sun set.
Everything fell into darkness.
Yu Shangrong gripped his Longevity Sword tightly and planted it on the ground.
Bang!
A crack appeared on the stone.
The Longevity Sword was stuck in the gap.
He sat down cross-legged.
He folded his palms in front of him …
Buzz!
His Hundred Tribulations Insight avatar appeared … However, it was not big. In fact, it was half a head shorter than him.
Yu Shangrong suppressed his avatar and shrunk it to a very small size.
He raised his palm, and his avatar floated above his palm.
He was like a golden man, stepping on a golden lotus. However, the golden lotus was no longer golden. Instead, there were purple spots on it.
Those spots were slowly spreading.
It was like a lotus leaf with worms. Those purple energies were the worms.
He circulated his Primal Qi. The golden lotus spun swiftly and shone brightly.
Buzz!
After a round of treatment, the spreading speed of the purple energy was only suppressed by his powerful cultivation, but it did not disappear.
Yu Shangrong frowned slightly.
He had not won this battle easily … At the very least, compared to many of his previous battles, it had been somewhat difficult.
Even when he sparred with his First Senior Brother in the Radiant Cloud Forest, he did not have to go all out like he did today.
In his impression, Zhang Yuan Shan was just a Sect Leader of a second-rate sect … a coward who was afraid of death. It was also the kind of target that could be killed with a single strike.
But now, he had become so powerful.
"Grand Wizard of Loulan?"
Yu Shangrong muttered. Then, he chuckled softly. "You're lucky you met me …"
He did not finish his sentence.
He retracted his avatar, tapped the ground with the tip of his feet, and flew north.
…
After the battle on the Green Jade Altar.
The Nether Sect disciples sent a letter to their sect master, Yu Zhenghai, who was far away in Yi Province.
"Notify the other branches. Tell them that the battle between Mister Second and Zhang Yuan Shan bodes ill."
At the very least, based on their judgment, it did not bode well.
However, the meaning behind the word 'ill' was many.
Injured.
Gravely injured.
Defeated.
Moreover, it was possible that Zhang Yuan Shan would die in battle.
Hence, the rumor was born.
The major sects in the cultivation world sighed in relief at the same time.
Public opinion could melt gold. As more and more people spread the rumor, there was no longer a need to verify its authenticity.
In the following period of time, the rumor grew more and more exaggerated.
The rumors became more and more exaggerated, and even some storytellers would exaggerate.
"During the battle on the Green Jade Altar, the Sword Devil, Yu Shangrong, was no match for Zhang Yuan Shan and was gravely injured."
"Why did the cowardly Zhang Yuan Shan suddenly show his strength?"
"The Sword Devil thought too highly of himself. In the end, he died."
"The Evil Sky Pavilion's era is coming to an end …"
Yu Shangrong did not appear again. This further confirmed the rumor.
…
Under the night sky.
Inside a graveyard.
A black figure hovered in the air. His feet were only half a foot above the ground.
He flew above the graveyard at a low altitude.
His body emitted a thick purple gas.
Rustle.
Rustle.
The soil loosened.
The black figure flew back and landed on the ground.
He nodded in satisfaction. He picked up two ropes with one hand.
At the end of the ropes were Kong Yuan in monk robes and Zhang Yuan Shan in Daoist robes.
"The gu spell has taken effect … Yu Shangrong will vanish from this world. The Evil Sky Pavilion is next … Junior Sister, I'll bury the entire Evil Sky Pavilion with you. "
…
Seven days later. Inside the great hall of the Evil Sky Pavilion.
After meditating on the Heavenly Writing scrolls for some time, Lu Zhou's extraordinary power was fully replenished.
He was still thinking about the Nine-leaf stage when Mingshi Yin walked in with a letter in his hand.
Little Yuan 'er was still practicing her control over the Nirvana Sash in the great hall.
"Fourth Senior Brother, look … I can use the Nirvana Sash to form various shapes! Master taught me … "
"That's amazing."
Mingshi Yin gave a perfunctory reply before he hurried into the great hall.
"Master, a letter from Jiang Aijian."
As Mingshi Yin spoke, he tore the letter open.
Jiang Aijian's ability to handle matters was indeed outstanding. He had only been away for seven days, and he had already replied.
The old men in the Old Age Pavilion could only brag and flatter Mingshi Yin. They could not be of much help.
Mingshi Yin read it aloud, "Old senior, there's no need for me to find out what you've asked me to find out. There's a rumor going around the world that the Sword Devil was defeated by Zhang Yuan Shan and that the odds are against him. However, I'll investigate further. Also, I have to tell you that the Nether Sect has taken over Yi Province. Wei Zhuoyan is an impostor, after all. He doesn't have the ability to conquer Yi Province. There's also news. There's not enough paper. Please flip it over … "
Mingshi Yin frowned when he read this.
'What's this fellow up to? Does he know how to write on the back? I didn't notice it when I tore it open earlier … '
Mingshi Yin cleared his throat and continued to read, "Golden Court Mountain's barrier is gone, Mister Second is in trouble, and your time is up. You must be careful of the Noble Sects, old senior. It's been a long time since I've written to you, old senior, and I'm a little rusty. If you can compensate me with a good sword, I'll be more motivated.
Hahaha … "Mingshi Yin's expression was slightly unnatural after he finished reading.
Only the first part of the letter was useful. He should not have read the second part.
"Rumors, they're just rumors … With Second Senior Brother's cultivation base, how could Zhang Yuan Shan have touched him? Zhang Yuanshan is a coward, "Mingshi Yin said.
Lu Zhou did not think so.
Based on the merit points reward, the matter was not as simple as it seemed.
He was certain that Zhang Yuan Shan was dead. As for Yu Shangrong, he had no way of knowing.
After all, up until now, the system had not notified him of his disciple's death. Perhaps, the system would not even notify him if his disciple was dead.
…
Lu Zhou rose to his feet slowly. He stroked his beard and paced as he said, "Your Second Senior Brother prefers to be alone. He doesn't like to send letters."
"You're right, master. How old is he? He doesn't even know how to send a letter back when he's out," Mingshi Yin said.
"Let him be."
Although Lu Zhou said that, he really did not want anything to happen to Mingshi Yin.
After all, he was a great helper. If he were to lose him because of this, he would feel very guilty.
"Master … Should we do something about Eldest Senior Brother? He's taken over Yi Province now. It's clear he's going against the palace, "Mingshi Yin said bluntly.
Lu Zhou did not answer the question.
'I'd like to teach this rascal a lesson and ask him about what happened back then.
The problem is, it's not that easy … The Nether Sect has many branches and many hidden bases. ' After the battle with Yu Shangrong in Radiant Cloud Forest, Lu Zhou did not know where Yu Shangrong was hiding. Yi Province was huge. They could not go door to door to search for him.
Moreover, the Nether Sect had grown from tens of thousands of members to hundreds of thousands in such a short time.
There were also the Four Great Protectors with extraordinary strength. Moreover, Si Wuya was secretly advising them. It would not be easy to capture them.
'Am I that terrifying?'
Lu Zhou stroked his beard and thought about it.
Ever since he transmigrated here, he had never met Yu Zhenghai.
He was always so close to meeting him.
The master of the greatest fiend sect under the heavens ran away faster than anyone else.
"Tell Jiang Aijian to pay more attention to Yi Province … When the time is right, I'll go to Yi Province to capture this rascal."
"Yes, master."
As soon as Lu Zhou finished speaking …
Mingshi Yin's eyes darted about as he said, "Master, rumors are spreading. Everyone thinks the Evil Sky Pavilion is a pushover. I'd like to go down the mountain and teach them a lesson."
At this moment, Duanmu Sheng walked in with his Overlord Spear in hand.
He said, "You want to go out and play, right?"
"Of course not." Mingshi Yin was about to kneel to show his loyalty when …
The sound of kneeling rang in the air.
"Greetings, master!"
