He couldn't figure it out. Xiahou Longcheng could even report bullshit between men. What else could he not say to this woman? Would he still dare to talk to that bear in the future?
In short, Miao Yi only had one thought in his mind, 'Why doesn't that bear just kill himself?'
"I'm asking because I'm afraid you'll reveal our relationship and affect your relationship with Xiahou Longcheng." Miao Yi gave a forced reason.
'Huangfujun?' Y asked sarcastically, "I pretended to be unwell for Xiahou Longcheng to see. I'm sure someone must be surprised to see that I'm fine?"
Actually, she was really haggard at first. Later, she accidentally heard from Xiahou Longcheng that Miao Yi was asking about her, so she immediately perked up. It was indeed an act.
"Think what you want." Miao Yi didn't say anything else.
Zhan Ruyi was just here to look around and didn't stay for long. The two of them weren't friends, but rather enemies. This trip was more than enough.
After the two women left, Miao Yi entered the underground tunnel. It was originally sealed, but after dealing with Gao Guan, he had Pi Junzi dig it open again.
He had received a message from Yun Zhiqiu's star bell earlier. There was some progress on the item he brought back from the Purgatory Zone. Because of Xu Tangran's wedding, he had to postpone it until the evening.
The two of them sat down in the paradise. Yun Zhiqiu took the tea from Qian 'Er and placed it in front of Miao Yi, then sat down and asked worriedly, "I heard Zhan Ruyi is here. What does she want?"
Miao Yi replied, "What else? She suffered a loss at my hands, so she wants to regain her dignity. She knows she can do it the hard way. I'm just afraid she'll do it in the dark."
Yun Zhiqiu frowned. "Marquis Tianyuan is Heavenly King Ying's old subordinate. It's hard for Madam Biyue not to help her."
Miao Yi said, "I've already had people in hell control Madam Biyue. Looks like I'll have to put some effort into Biyue."
"Uh …" Yun Zhiqiu was speechless. Even Qian 'Er and Xue' Er looked at each other. They hadn't heard Miao Yi mention it before, but now they remembered that he was one of the rebel leaders in hell.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. We'll think of a way later." Miao Yi smiled at the three. "What's the progress?"
Yun Zhiqiu said solemnly, "I've found the whereabouts of the Unparalleled Demonic Art's Heaven section. It's in the Western Paradise!"
Miao Yi was shocked. "The Buddhist Master's lair, the Realm of Pure Bliss?"
Yun Zhiqiu nodded. "Even the entrances and exits of that place are guarded by Buddhist disciples. It won't be easy for outsiders to enter that place."
Miao Yi fell silent for a moment before saying, "Master White's plans are layered in layers. Even the traitors of hell were dragged into this mess. I really don't know what else will happen next. I can clearly feel that the deeper I go, the more dangerous it will be. With my current cultivation, I'm unable to control it at all. I still don't know how to deal with the rebels of hell. Sister Qiu, even if there's a way to enter the Western Paradise, I'm planning to postpone it for now. I want to wait until my cultivation level increases. "
Yun Zhiqiu smiled bitterly. "You should have done this a long time ago. I've advised you before, but you wouldn't listen!"
Miao Yi shook his head. "You were indeed frightened in the rebel's lair. Any random guard from that place could easily kill me. There was no place for you to exert your strength at all. You had no choice but to be a coward for so many years. How could you not learn your lesson?"
"If you want to show off in public, you have to suffer a little in private. Let's not talk about this for now." Yun Zhiqiu grabbed the red metal ball that she brought out of hell and said, "It took me a lot of effort to find the four stargates in here. So far, I've only managed to confirm the location of one stargate. I'm still in doubt about the location of the other one, and I don't even know where to start looking for the other two. I suspect that they're not even within the range of the known star charts."
Miao Yi's interest was piqued. He took the red metal ball and invoked his transcendence energy to examine the four stargates inside. At the same time, he asked, "Hurry up and tell me where the one we know is."
Yun Zhiqiu replied, "It's the first star chart on the far left. You probably won't be able to figure it out even if I tell you. Do you still remember the place my grandfather and the others robbed?"
Miao Yi pulled himself out of the metal ball and asked in surprise, "Could it be the Dingyu Domain's Nanzi Star? The stargate in that place is the entrance to the Purgatory. "
Yun Zhiqiu shook his head. "It is indeed the entrance to the Purgatory, but it's not the one in the Nanzi Star. Instead, it's far away from the Nanzi Star, beyond the Dingyu Domain and further into the barren starry sky. It's not marked on the star chart. In fact, it's the stargate my grandfather and the others fled into after killing the three Great Commanders of Heaven Avenue."
"…" Miao Yi was dumbfounded. After a while, he asked in disbelief, "Could it be that all four stargates are passageways to the Purgatory? If they're not marked on the star chart, how did you find them? "
Yun Zhiqiu smiled bitterly. "It was a complete coincidence."
Qian 'Er smiled. "If it weren't for Madam's quick wits, I'm afraid we would've missed it. Last time, the Nebula Sect's shopkeeper's wife came to Heaven Avenue. She heard that our accessories were famous here, so the shopkeeper accompanied her here to look at the accessories. While they were chatting in the private room, she accidentally mentioned that their store had updated a new batch of star charts. They talked about the newly discovered stargate to the Purgatory. At that time, Madam suddenly had an idea. She remembered that Milord's map was brought out from the Purgatory, and she suspected that the stargate might be related to the Purgatory. She pretended to be interested in the star charts and asked the shopkeeper if he had a star chart from there. The shopkeeper gave Madam a copy, and because of that, Madam gave them a discount on their accessories. "
Yun Zhiqiu sighed. "I really had no choice. I searched everywhere but couldn't find it. At that time, I was just trying my best to give it a try. I even found an excuse to do Shopkeeper Quan a favor. Who knew that when I brought it back and compared it to the nearby star charts, it really matched up with the first star chart on the left, and I was able to confirm the location of the stargate."
Xue 'Er interrupted, "At first, we realized that the star charts around the main star were different from the ones Milord brought back. At first, we thought there was an error in our judgment, but after a closer look, we realized that this stargate map was completely different from the treasure map from before. The stargate map is actually a road map, but it's condensed into a single piece. At first glance, it looks like a complete star chart, but in reality, it's not. I reckon that the person who created this map didn't have the time to take note of the entire region's star chart. Or perhaps it was because the star chart of that region hadn't been discovered yet, and they were afraid that it would be useless even if they marked out the star chart. Thus, they marked out the location they had passed along the way to reach their destination. "
Qian 'Er smiled. "So, the two of us retraced our steps from the destination using reverse reasoning, and discovered that the starting point was at the top left corner of the map. The starting point was the Dingyu Domain. With this discovery, we had a clue, and things became much simpler. We then started comparing the second stargate from the top left corner of the map, and finally determined that the starting point of the second stargate map was the Domain of Aged Gui. As we continued our search, we were only able to confirm the starting point of the second stargate map. Since the second stargate had also left the Domain of Aged Gui and entered the desolate starry sky, we couldn't continue our search without a star chart to compare with. I'm afraid we'll have to compare the starting point on the spot to find it. "
Miao Yi suddenly understood. "So that's how it is. Thank you for your hard work, beauties."
Qian 'Er and Xue' Er smiled, but Yun Zhiqiu shook his head and said, "There's really nothing we can do about the remaining two. We can't find the starting point at all, and we have every reason to suspect that it's not in any known Star Domain."
Miao Yi held the red metal orb in his palm and muttered, "The first stargate leads to the Inferno Realm. Since the Celestial Court has already discovered it, there's nothing we can do about it. Where do the other three stargate maps lead to? What is this Master White up to? Just where is he trying to lead the treasure hunters to? Qian 'Er, Xue' Er, help me copy the other three star charts. "
Yun Zhiqiu frowned. "Are you going to go investigate again? We were just talking about you earlier. Let's talk about this after our cultivations have improved. "
Miao Yi waved his hand and said, "I just want to take them back and study them when I'm free. I want to see if I can find any clues. Madam, it's late!" He tossed the red metal orb to Qian 'Er and Xue' Er, then grabbed Yun Zhiqiu's hand with the other.
Yun Zhiqiu immediately glared at him. How could she not know what he was trying to do? She quickly pulled her hand back. The two girls were still watching.
However, Lord Miao Yi didn't hold back at all. "Ah!" Yun Zhiqiu cried out in shock. Miao Yi had already grabbed her by the waist and carried her away. She struggled as he beat her up and scolded, "Niu Er, you're getting more and more shameless. There are people watching."
"What's there to be afraid of? We're all family. I'll have them go to the City Guard Palace some other day. Why don't you come along as well?"
"Go to hell!"
Inside the room, Yun Zhiqiu had finally calmed down. She tilted her head to look at the person beside her. After a moment of hesitation, she asked, "Niu Er, there are rumors out there that you allowed Xu Tangran to forcibly take Xue Linglong."
Miao Yi was silent for a moment. "Xu Tangran has always liked Xue Linglong. I just didn't object to it."
"You don't like her? Which man doesn't like beauties? That's not a reason. " Yun Zhiqiu was silent as well. She sighed softly, "If it were the old you, you wouldn't have done something like this even if I forced you. Niu Er, you've changed. You've changed ever since you returned from the Purgatory. "
Miao Yi flipped over and sat up. Yun Zhiqiu immediately followed suit and pressed her voluptuous breasts against his arm. She wrapped her arms around his neck and whispered in his ear, "Are you angry?"
