ninety thousand miles

Chapter 419 Drunk
Li Chuan went over Yu Wansheng's words several times in his mind. He refused and said, "Chief Yu, I am very grateful that you are willing to tell me about the half-demon girl. If you need help, I will do my best. But I am not a member of the Xuanmen, and... Chief Yu, you said that this is a hot potato. It is not good for you to drag me in and force the old palace master to take on this matter, right?"

After hearing this, Yu Wansheng was not angry, but just said, "I was mistaken." He filled Li Chuan's and his own cups with wine and said, "Brother Li, this cup of wine is to apologize to you."

After a glass of wine, the matter was over.

Afterwards, Yu Wansheng asked, "Brother Li, as far as I know, the half-demon girl has been dead for more than 20 years. It seems that all the people of Frost Leaf Sect are dead, except for the old man who followed her. You ask me this, is there anyone still alive in Frost Leaf Sect?"

Li Chuan told the truth, "I may have discovered the secret of the Frost Leaf Sect's skills, so I am investigating what happened back then."

"So that's how it is." Yu Wansheng seemed convinced.

Li Chuan felt that Yu Wansheng mentioned the old man on purpose, so he asked, "Do you know anything about the old man who followed the half-demon woman?"

Yu Wansheng said, "I do know something." He said, "When the half-demon girl came to Cangwu Wild for the second time, she told us the origin of the technique. She said that after she was expelled from Cangwu Wild, she returned to Wochi, and she wanted to prove that she was not lying. In Wochi, she met a casual cultivator, the old man. With the help of the old man, they entered the formation and obtained the technique."

"And..." Yu Wansheng looked at Li Chuan and said, "Do you remember what I told you, that a member of the Yu Clan escaped and returned?"

"I know." Li Chuan said.

Yu Wansheng's voice said: "After he came back, he said that the old man was not a casual cultivator, but rather a demon from the records of the Yu Clan."

"Well... then, what about the other male disciple? Is he also a demon?" Li Chuan asked.

Yu Wansheng said: "He didn't say anything. The male disciple should be dead."

Li Chuan nodded.

Yu Wansheng looked out the window and said, "In a few days, winter will come."

"Yes." Li Chuan agreed.

Yu Wansheng said: "For the half-demon tribe, every winter is also very difficult. As the leader of the Yu tribe, I came out at this time because according to my judgment, the thing sleeping underground will wake up in the next spring. I must solve this matter before the arrival of spring."

"This..." said Li Chuan.

“Nowadays, Xuanmen is headed by the Four Tianxuan and Three Sects, and the Four Gods Palace is one level stronger than the Tianyu Sect and the Xuanyue Sect. In addition, regarding the matter of Monk Tian, ​​the Four Gods Palace was the one I wanted to seek help from at the beginning,” said Yu Wansheng.

"Why don't you talk to the old Palace Master?" Li Chuan never understood this. The old Palace Master was not unwilling to see him, so why would he need to ask him, Li Chuan, to act as a go-between?

"I tried several times and finally said it almost openly, but the old palace master never responded to me." Yu Wansheng said bluntly.

"This……"

Yu Wansheng said: "So after I came out from the old palace master, I wanted to try to contact Wen Guying to see if I could convince him."

"He does have something to do. As for me, I can't influence him and the old palace master." Although Li Chuan didn't know what he said made the Yu clan leader think that the old palace master also valued him, he himself knew that he was just a guest in the Four Gods Palace.

Li Chuan said: "Chief Yu, you are so honest with me, I want to repay you, but I can only take care of myself."

He stretched out his hand to stop Yu Wansheng from speaking. "Listen to me first. I know that in your eyes, I am just an ordinary person who just has a good relationship with Taoist Master Wen. But I can do a lot of things. You might as well tell me what you want, and I will see if I can help. If I think that Taoist Master Wen and the old palace master must be involved in this matter, then I will do my best to convince them."

Li Chuan asked: "Chief Yu, what exactly is hidden under the ground in the Cangwu Wilderness?"

At this time, Yu Wansheng hesitated. It was already completely dark.

Yu Wansheng opened his mouth many times but still didn't say anything.

Li Chuan understood how difficult this was.

The matter of the half-demon girl was already a secret. The head of the Guyue Sect had spent three years investigating in the Cangwu Wilderness before finding out that the half-demon girl was not a half-demon from the Cangwu Wilderness, but an outsider. Yu Wansheng told him everything just to make friends with him, even telling him his guess about the old man's identity.

As for what is hidden under the ground in the Cangwu wilderness, it is only vaguely said that it is a secret realm of spiritual treasures, and no truth is revealed at all.

He didn't believe that the half-demon tribe that had survived from ancient times to the present day would know nothing.

Li Chuan suddenly remembered what Wen Guying had said, that when a cultivator reaches a certain level, the secrets of the ruins in this world are no longer secrets. Perhaps the old palace master already knew what was down there, so he didn't respond at all.

Thinking of this, he said: "It's getting late. Since Chief Yu doesn't want to talk, let's go back."

"No..." Yu Wansheng denied. He moved his mouth but still said nothing.

Li Chuan said: "I will stay in the Four Gods Palace for a while, and Chief Yu can come to see me at any time."

"Okay." Yu Wansheng agreed very readily this time.

After walking out of the restaurant, the night breeze blew on his face, and the smell of alcohol was half gone. He took out the carriage and asked the leader of the Yu tribe: "I'm going back, will you go with me, or?"

Yu Wansheng refused and said, "I want to look around a bit more."

"Okay, goodbye then." Li Chuan said, got on the carriage, and ran quickly towards the Four Gods Palace.

After entering the Four Gods Palace and reaching the nearest teleportation formation, he got off the carriage and told the disciple in charge of the formation where he was going. The disciple also recognized Li Chuan, and after he stood still, he activated the formation.

After a while, he arrived near his courtyard. After walking out of the teleportation array, Li Chuan did not take the carriage again, but walked back slowly.

There is no moonlight tonight.

The shadows of the trees swayed in the night wind. These trees were hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands years old. Li Chuan shuttled among them, thinking about the half-demon woman. When she first appeared in Cangwu Wilderness, what she said might not be false, but when she appeared the second time, she must have been full of lies.

The Frost Leaf Sect's skills could not have come from the seal. It was more likely that... after she returned to Wochi, she saw the evil spirit in the dark river through some means.

Li Chuan pushed the door and walked into the front yard.

It was very dark, every room was dark, and no sound could be heard except the sound of the wind.

Li Chuan raised his head and finally realized that tonight was a moonless night.

He felt something in his heart, so he walked into the house, opened the cabinet, took out the iron pot, then walked out again and placed the iron pot on a large rock among the flowers.

The light of the 'full moon' began to flow.
