Chapter 487 Reminiscing about the past
Master of Cang Ming Hall?

Li Chuan thought of the thin old man with sunken eyes.

The old turtle's expression changed again, and he seemed a little disappointed and asked, "Master Cang Ming, why is he here?"

"You haven't seen each other for a long time, so it's a good opportunity to catch up." Wen Guying said.

When Li Chuan heard Wen Guying start to speak in a sarcastic tone, he knew that the game was won. He moved his body to make himself more comfortable.

The water around seemed to light up.

Wen Guying stood up and said, "Brother Li, Master Wukong, Senior Sister Yao, it's time for us to go."

"Ah? Oh..." Li Chuan stood up, and Wu Kong stood up too.

Wen Guying looked at the old turtle again and said, "Senior Yanyun, then we won't disturb you guys from reminiscing about the past?"

The old turtle seemed not to hear Wen Guying's voice. He raised his head and looked somewhere above.

Li Chuan followed his gaze and saw someone walking towards him from a long distance.

"Let's go." Wen Guying said, then turned around and walked to the other side. Li Chuan immediately followed him, and after two steps he found that Wukong was still in a daze, so he reached out and pulled Wukong, who came to his senses and followed him.

When they reached the water curtain where they came from, a black shovel appeared in Yao Shuang's hand. She dug at the water curtain, and then Wen Guying pulled out a piece of sword. Red light flowed in the cracks.

Li Chuan felt that he was wrapped by a stream of water, and then he and Wukong the Mage were tossed in the water ball. The water ball seemed to have rolled into a crack, bouncing up and down, jumping left and right, and soon rolled out.

After rolling out, the water ball scattered.

Li Chuan sat up with a dusty face, and then saw the soaked Wukong Master wiping his face. After staring at each other in silence for a moment, Wukong asked: "Did we escape?"

As soon as he finished speaking, they saw an orange-red light spreading from the sky above the forest, illuminating the night like day. Then, they heard a series of delicate and long sounds, which were not as shocking as thunder, but its tremors seemed to come from the bone marrow and soul. It spread slowly and unstoppably, and every grain of dust began to tremble with it.

Then, Wen Guying and Yao Shuang fell from the air on both sides. Yao Shuang put her hands together, opened the barrier, and isolated the sound.

But Li Chuan could feel the tremor.

He finally understood why Wen Guying had fled away from the battlefield before Hall Master Cang Ming arrived.

He asked: "Well, Yanyunke and Cangming Hall Master don't have any old ties, but rather a grudge, right?"

Wen Guying turned around and said, "Do you remember what I told you about the eldest disciple of Cang Ming Hall Master, who took all the disciples of Jiuli Hall away?"

Li Chuan thought about it and asked, "I remember. Could this be related to the turtle monster?"

"That's right. At that time, he accused the Cang Ming Hall Master, saying that the Four Gods Palace was originally a sect of demon cultivators, and it was because he repeatedly gave in that the human cultivators took away the demons' luck and continued to ascend. The Cang Ming Hall Master's eldest disciple believed him, so he took all the disciples away to seek a way to immortality." Wen Guying explained the inside story, "I think the immortality road they saw was the road that the demons took."

"Ah, the Four Gods Palace just let people go like that?" Li Chuan was very confused.

Wen Guying said: "Of course not. You can leave, but you must return your cultivation." "The people he said he would entrust to Hall Master Cang Ming, could they be those disciples?" Li Chuan asked.

"What do you think?" Wen Guying said.

"Then, didn't Hall Master Cang Ming go looking for his successor? Did he find him?" Li Chuan asked.

"Probably not yet." Wen Guying said, "Senior Yanyun just wanted to deceive us to achieve his goal. You should listen carefully to what he said. He wants to use the things of the demon clan to ascend again, and the appearance of the demon spirit may have some impact on his plan. Maybe he wants to use us to kill the demon spirit completely."

"I was thinking just now that we should tell him about his plan, get Jiang Mei and the others out first, and kill all the evil spirits together." Wen Guying said with some regret, "At that time, I felt the divine consciousness of Cang Ming Hall Master, so I had to give up."

"I just thought I was going to fight him to the death." Li Chuan was still a little scared. He found a dry place to sit down, then took out a set of clean clothes from the Bishui Ring, threw them to Wukong and said, "Master Wukong, just wear them."

"Okay." Wukong took the clothes and started changing.

Wen Guying said, "Brother Li, you haven't improved in other aspects, but you have really improved in courage. You even dared to fight Senior Yanyun. It seems that from now on, I should call you Brother Xiaochuan."

"How powerful is he?" Li Chuan asked.

Wen Guying said: "He is a demon cultivator, and also a casual cultivator. If we are at the same level of cultivation, he will be three or four times more difficult to deal with than the cultivators from the sect. On the surface, he is about the same as Elder Xiao, but if we really have to fight, I'd rather fight Elder Xiao for a few moves."

Li Chuan asked: "Didn't you fight him twice before?"

"That's just a test between each other. Even the shadow has become his puppet. What do you think?" Wen Guying said.

"Haven't we already defeated all the evil spirits?" Li Chuan said.

"If Senior Sister Yao, I and you use all our strength, we may have a chance, but the best chance we have is to seriously injure him," Wen Guying said, "A demon cultivator like him is too difficult to deal with."

"He is different from Elder Xiao. Elder Xiao lost his heart and had no hope of ascending to heaven, which led him to start to distrust everything he had cultivated for thousands of years. He did not trust his strength and techniques, which led to him being unable to exert his full potential even though he could still use them. As for Senior Yanyun, his strength may not have declined too much."

"Ah, what about Hall Master Cang Ming?" Li Chuan became worried again.

Wen Guying just said: "Master Cang Ming, please be more stable."

"Why? Hasn't he reached the stage of ascension yet?" Li Chuan asked.

"When he finds a successor, he will be able to overcome the tribulation of ascension." Wen Guying replied, "Just like... when I can support the Four Gods Palace, the old palace master can also overcome the tribulation with peace of mind."

After Wen Guying finished speaking, he looked toward the horizon for a while and said, "It's hard to tell who will win for a while. Let's go to the stone platform."

"Okay." Yao Shuang said.

When Li Chuan was about to stand up, he saw Wen Guying and Yao Shuang picking him and Master Wukong up one by one. There was a gust of wind in his ears. Li Chuan calmed down and admired the scenery around him. He felt that it was not very fast, just like a high-speed train.

In a blink of an eye, they came to the stream again. Wukong pointed ahead and said, "The stone platform is right there."
