The voice of the Corpse Immortal fell silent, and her presence completely vanished from Yu Chan’s body.
Every appearance of this Corpse Immortal consumes her own power.
Last time, to rescue Yu Chan from the Refinement Demon Sect, she fell into a long slumber.
This time, having just awakened not long ago, she was forced to make a move again, obviously suffering a huge loss.
As she fell into deep sleep, only Li Muyang and Yu Chan remained in the mist.
The siblings exchanged glances, and Yu Chan let out a deep sigh, her eyes filled with complexity.
But Li Muyang was not prone to such sensitive and sentimental emotions.
He has always been very straight-forward.
So, upon seeing Yu Chan wake up, Li Muyang directly asked: “Yu Chan, why did you elope with the Netherworld Saint Spirit?”
“Moreover, you just said you wouldn’t be a ghost god of the Netherworld, yet you ran off with the Netherworld Saint Spirit, and halfway through, you left the Netherworld Saint Spirit… What exactly are you thinking?”
Li Muyang was totally confused, suspecting this girl’s brain might be damaged.
Why act all over the place like that?
But the girl gave a bitter smile, saying, “Brother, you didn’t get my point.”
“When I told you I wouldn’t become a ghost god of the Netherworld, it was a reminder for you not to worry or bother about me when I get captured.”
“I had other plans when I seemingly went with the Netherworld Saint Spirit.”
“That’s why I found a way to escape from Him after reaching the Misty Sea.”
“Fortunately, that Netherworld Saint Spirit didn’t make things difficult for you… ah…”
Yu Chan sighed, feeling somewhat relieved.
Li Muyang, however, was utterly baffled, “Then why didn’t you make your words clearer, who could understand you?”
Guessing a girl’s mind and riddles, he was never good at it.
The girl shook her head and said, “If I directly told you that I wanted to go to the side of the Netherworld Saint Spirit, you definitely wouldn’t have let me go, saying it’s too dangerous, so I could only speak cryptically…”
The girl seemed to want to say something else.
But Li Muyang, having understood, did not dwell on this anymore.
He directly skipped this topic, continuing to ask, “So what did you go to the Netherworld Saint Spirit for? What did He bring you there to do? And how did you get away from Him?”
Li Muyang was very curious.
Yu Chan sighed and said, “That Holy Spirit took me to the Misty Sea, where He collected many remnants of divine power from dead Netherworld ghost gods, intending to let me accept these remaining ghostly powers.”
“What interested me, however, were the things He showed me in the dream world.”
“Brother, do you still remember what I told you before? Fairy Qinghe had left a Magic Artifact ten thousand years ago, prepared for her brother’s resurrection ten thousand years later…”
Yu Chan brought up this matter, and Li Muyang was slightly startled.
“Could it be that the Magic Artifact is with the Netherworld Saint Spirit?”
Wasn’t it supposed to be in the Ancient Resentment Well?
He even came across it in the game!
The Magical Treasure in the capital of Great Zhou, it might just be left by Little Wild Grass for him.
Yu Chan shook her head, saying, “That Magical Treasure is not with the Saint Spirit, it should still be in the Ancient Resentment Well.”
“I’m talking about clues to Fairy Qinghe’s resurrection. Brother, didn’t you say that Fairy Qinghe’s statue was key to her resurrection?”
As she spoke, Yu Chan raised her hand, and from the Qiankun Ring emerged thirty-two lifelike statues of Fairy Qinghe.
Each statue of Fairy Qinghe carried the aura of Little Wild Grass.
Looking at Li Muyang’s astounded face, Yu Chan said, “In the dream world unfolded by the Netherworld Saint Spirit for me, I saw the ghostly powers He sealed on the Misty Sea, as well as the collected Fairy Qinghe statues.”
“This Netherworld Saint Spirit, he actually collected so many Fairy Qinghe statues, and made many fake ones that were scattered in the Mortal World.”
“If I didn’t get close to Him and took these statues back, then Fairy Qinghe would never be able to resurrect.”
Yu Chan sighed as she explained, “I approached Him for these statues. Brother, you said the statues are key to Fairy Qinghe’s resurrection.”
“And our teacher told me, Fairy Qinghe was incredibly talented, comparable to ancient sages. If she could be resurrected, she would surely solve the current dire crisis.”
The thirty-two statues of Fairy Qinghe that Yu Chan presented left Li Muyang speechless.
“…you mischievous girl.”
So that’s how it was.
Then the one who forged the Little Wild Grass statues and nearly schemed against Li Muyang has also come to light.
It was none other than that damn Netherworld Saint Spirit.
This old creature is truly crafty.
Secretly collecting thirty-two statues of Fairy Qinghe, without visiting His lair, it’s feared that Little Wild Grass could never be resurrected.
But with the Netherworld Saint Spirit’s formidable power, Li Muyang thinking of forcefully retrieving them from His lair seems like a hopeless cause.
Not to mention that the lair is atop the Misty Sea; without the directions from a Netherworld ghost god, Li Muyang couldn’t even find the Netherworld Saint Spirit’s lair, let alone navigate the Misty Sea without getting lost…
Yu Chan’s risk this time was indeed worthwhile.
Li Muyang carefully stored the thirty-two statues of Fairy Qinghe, plus the ones he had collected before, and those given to him by the snake monster, making a total of one hundred and nine Fairy Qinghe statues now in his possession.
He didn’t know the total number of statues of Little Wild Grass, but with this many, there should not be many left.
Li Muyang sighed with a complex tone, “But for you to put yourself in danger, it was still too risky. Staying by the side of the Netherworld Saint Spirit, It could have killed you at any moment…”
Yu Chan shook her head, “No, It wouldn’t take my life. Even if It figured out my purpose, It would at most imprison me.”
“After all, I have the bloodline of the Netherworld…”
Saying that, Yu Chan’s emotions seemed somewhat low.
But before Li Muyang could comfort her, she asked, “Brother, how did you know I was in danger and came to rescue me?”
Yu Chan was slightly puzzled and amazed, “Logically speaking, even if my mother sensed that I was in danger, it would be difficult to notify you. You always appear and disappear unpredictably, and my mother couldn’t influence beyond the boundaries of Jiuyuan City…”
Yu Chan asked curiously.
Li Muyang said, “It was Xiao Ru who sent the message.”
Li Muyang sighed, “She was tracking your whereabouts, trying to use your location to track me. She didn’t expect to end up in a perilous situation with you.”
“Heavenly Machine Pavilion’s Star Traction technique seemed to have a similar method to astral projection and tracing enemies.”
“Now that you have escaped safely, she is safe too, and is probably on her way to find us.”
Li Muyang said this, looking towards the mist ahead with a complex expression.
By saving Yu Chan, he also inadvertently saved Xiao Ru. Soon, Xiao Ru would bring Chou Yuyan to trouble him.
He would have to face this former lover in a fight once again.
Yet, as soon as Li Muyang spoke, Yu Chan exclaimed in disbelief, “Elder Yan tracked me and fell into a perilous situation with me? That’s impossible!”
“I have awakened part of the Divine Power of the Ghost Moon Fox, and I am extremely sensitive to the spiritual essence. If someone really did astral projection and tracked me here, I couldn’t have been completely unaware!”
These words from Yu Chan caused Li Muyang to startle.
“…So, Xiao Ru didn’t use the Star Traction technique to track you?”
Then Chou Yuyan coming to warn…
Li Muyang’s heart suddenly leaped, acutely sensing the scent of some conspiracy.
At this moment, a divine light flickered across Yu Chan’s forehead.
The next second, the Yin Life Book hovering above Li Muyang dimmed.
The power that guided their flight disappeared.
Li Muyang immediately looked towards Yu Chan, seeing her pallid face.
“Not good! Something happened to my mother over at Jiuyuan City!”
As Li Muyang was about to speak, the core of The Peaceful Realms suddenly sensed something.
His consciousness immediately returned to his body, sitting up atop the Green Saber Mantis.
In the mist ahead, Chou Yuyan’s shadow appeared with a cold laugh.
“…Congratulations, Jiang Xiaoyu, you must have saved your sister, right?”
Seeing Chou Yuyan emerge, Li Muyang’s gaze turned icy.
“You used me to drain the Divine Power of the Ghost Moon Fox and then took advantage of the situation?”
In the mist, the shadow of Chou Yuyan coldly laughed, saying, “Don’t include others; your concubine, unable to stand even herself after failing last time, has already left. She seems to care more about you. Though she spoke of changing targets, not to waste time in one place, I guess she went to find you.”
“Of course, she might have become maddened by demons and wanted to see you one last time before dying.”
“After all, when she left, she was already delirious, about to turn into someone else, speaking and acting all over the place, with not much time left to live.”
“But her appearance did provide me with some direction.”
“I couldn’t find my way in The Peaceful Realms, unable to retrieve my master’s corpse, but it’s not important! Killing a Netherworld ghost god, then refining Its corpse, and like you, controlling the corpse puppet to search in the mortal world, isn’t that feasible too?”
“Netherworld ghost gods won’t get lost in the mist of The Peaceful Realms, and Xiao Ru just helped me find a living one.”
“Everything just fits.”
Chou Yuyan coldly laughed as he threw a talisman paper, saying, “This is what your concubine left for me when she departed, she said I could use this talisman to find her.”
“But now I have no use for it, though you might still have a chance?”
“If you go with this talisman to find her now, perhaps you could still save her before she completely succumbs to the insanity; at least you could see her one last time.”
“But if you go to save your concubine, your sister’s mother will die.”
“If you come to Jiuyuan City to save the Ghost Moon Fox, your concubine will die… hehehe…”
At this point, the shadow of Chou Yuyan coldly laughed, laughing wildly and joyously, “A dilemma of choice, whom will you choose? I am really looking forward to it.”
“For someone as cold, ruthless, and selfish as you, which is more important? The so-called family sister or the lover concubine?”
“I am looking forward to it, Jiang Xiaoyu! Struggle in your decision and pain!”
“Whichever you choose, you will regret it in the future! Hahahaha!!!”
