The Primordial Law

Chapter 450 Princess Lantern Phoenix
Fu Wenyan said, "They are neither attached to life nor weary of death. They cultivate the 'Primordial Qi of Life and Death' passed down to them by Emperor Ji. One cultivates the life force, and the other cultivates the death force. In the Hundred Realms of Life in the southern part of Yingzhou, they can sweep through martial artists of the same level. It is an unparalleled honor to be able to withstand one of their attacks without dying."

"And you, would you consider it an honor?" Princess Lantern Phoenix asked.

Fu Wenyan, with his outstanding demeanor and eyes gazing at the sky, said: "To me, they are merely pioneers on the path of cultivation. Give me five years, and I will surely defeat them."

Princess Dengfeng nodded gently, her face full of appreciation: "Five years from now, I will be waiting for the good news that you will become the true successor of the Du'e Temple."

"I, Xie, will come to the East China Sea as soon as possible to share this joy with Her Highness the Princess. I hope that at that time, with the bright moon over the sea as our companion, and fine wine and a gentle breeze as our accompaniment, it will be the most beautiful moment of my life," Fu Wenyan said.

Li Weiyi stared for a long time in the direction where the rice man had left, but could not find that beautiful figure.

Princess Dengfeng, Fu Wenyan, and a group of powerful demons have already gone far away.

Water Beaver Fairy quietly squeezed next to Li Weiyi and transmitted her voice with her magic energy: "The Rice People have already set their sights on you, traitor. Without the protection of the East Sea Demon Clan, you won't be able to enter the old Yuzhou city at all."

Li Weiyi went to check on Yang Qingxi and Yang Qingchan's injuries.

The Water Civet Fairy followed and transmitted her voice again: "Princess Lantern Phoenix came to the rescue because of me. This favor from the demon will be repaid by me in the future, not by you."

Li Weiyi channeled his mental energy into their bodies, and the two women awoke.

The sonic techniques of the two true disciples of Inamiya, transcending vast distances, damaged their souls, directly stunning them. The terrifying power of their cultivation left the two Yangs with lingering fear; they had never seen such a powerful young expert.

Li Weiyi looked at the Water Lily Fairy: "What exactly are you trying to say?"

Water Beaver Immortal quickly made a shushing gesture and transmitted her voice, "Why don't you pretend to be my subordinates for now? There are many benefits to this. You can avoid being ambushed by the Rice People and take advantage of the situation to enter the old Yuzhou city. You should know that there are powerful figures in the Longevity Realm hiding in the East Sea Demon Clan, which is why they dare not act rashly."

Prince Baba walked over and said in a deep voice, "Cousin, what are you dawdling about? The princess and the others have already gone far away. We need to catch up quickly."

The water beaver fairy bowed to Li Weiyi with both paws and transmitted her voice: "Please, I beg you, Brother Ren, please help me this once, and I will listen to you from now on."

Water Beaver Fairy turned to look at Prince Baba, her expression changing, and said coldly, "I have to give them a good scolding for bringing in such a powerful enemy."

“Then just kill them!” said Prince Baba.

The water beaver fairy shook its paw: "Hey! That won't do. They are very talented and not mediocre at all."

"Oh!"

Prince Baba was immediately moved and became very interested in the talents: "What talents do they have?"

There's no such thing as too many prodigies, and we should also recruit talented individuals.

Even Princess Dengfeng took one in.

Yang Qingxi released the Long River Intent, and the water vapor in the world instantly gathered, condensing into a long river above his head. The water waterfall cascaded down onto the Water Fox Fairy and Prince Baba, causing the two beasts to howl in pleasure.

Especially Prince Baba, who was born into the capybara clan, but only has the talent for fire magic.

After getting ashore, they were always severely dehydrated.

“Excellent, excellent talent. During this campaign against the mainland, Her Highness is in dire need of such talent.”

Prince Baba looked at Li Weiyi: "And what kind of talent are you?"

The water beaver fairy tensed up, afraid that Li Weiyi would not give her face.

"Your Highness, I am a dual practitioner of martial arts and mental arts, and I am a mental arts master. I am proficient in the puppetry technique of turning beans into soldiers."

Li Weiyi was certainly not ignorant of human relationships; his brow lit up, and he picked up a handful of pebbles from the ground.

"Pro!"

He used his mental power to envelop the pebbles and then scattered them from his hand.

In mid-air, the pebbles transformed into three-foot-tall stone figures, enveloped in spiritual light, unleashing various moves.

"Wow!" Yu'er exclaimed as he carried her on his back, finding the move quite amusing.

She tried to gesture with her fingers and also called out the word "Lin".

Prince Baba was silent for a moment: "It's not very powerful... It's barely a charming trick, but I could perform it for Her Highness the Princess."

The Water Beaver Fairy breathed a sigh of relief, gave Li Weiyi a grateful look, and then said in a deep voice, "The three of you have gained your cousin's approval. He is a very important figure in the East Sea Demon Clan. Why don't you hurry up and thank him?"

"Thank you for your appreciation, Your Highness."

Li Weiyi and the other two bowed with clasped hands.

"Since we're all on the same side, there's no need to address me as Your Highness, it's too formal. Just call me Baba!" Prince Baba is a calm and composed person who values ​​talent.

"..."

Li Weiwei felt that the capybara was trying to take advantage of them.

The group of humans and demons headed towards the camp of the East Sea demons.

Li Weiyi asked, "Your Highness, what was the origin of the humans who were previously following the princess?"

Prince Baba walked at the front, his body now three feet long: "That person is no ordinary person. His cultivation and combat strength far surpass the three of you. More importantly, he has an exceptionally high talent for cultivation and is the young emperor of the Du'e Temple. Look at his speech, his appearance, his manners; he makes us look like a few groundhogs."

Waterfowl Fairy retorted, "Is it as mysterious as you make it out to be? I'm afraid it's all show and no substance." Prince Baba sneered, "He's only at the eighth level of the Dao Seed Realm, but I feel that I'm probably no match for him. This person's mental power is also quite high, and he's proficient in array formations and talismans... The talent you've recruited is worlds apart from others."

Prince Baba did not witness the duel between Li Weiyi and Huangxu and Kongxu.

It could sense that Li Weiyi was not weak.

But nothing more.

Prince Baba continued, "His name is Xie Chucai. He is said to be from a sacred dark family with extremely noble blood. In the past two days, Her Highness the Princess has spent the whole night discussing martial arts with him, praising him highly and marveling that Xie Chucai's understanding of martial arts is no less than that of an immortal. By the way, talented person, what is your name?"

"Lu Cangsheng".

Li Weiyi became even more certain that the person was Fu Wenyan.

But why use Xie Chucai's identity?
Li Weiyi doesn't use her real name because she's worried that some of the secrets surrounding her identity as "Li Weiyi" might be leaked to the East Sea Demon Clan, causing unnecessary trouble.

It seems Fu Wenyan also possesses some extraordinary treasure. His ability to escape from Yao Qian's clutches is no small feat.

Prince Baba wasn't as cunning as the Water Lily Fairy; he was more like a focused cultivator. He truly considered Li Weiyi and the other two as his own, answering all their questions without reservation.

It turns out that the reason why the East Sea demons have not yet attacked the old Yuzhou city is because multiple forces have gathered there.

Nobody wants to be the first to attack a city.

Princess Lantern Phoenix is ​​actively lobbying all parties, hoping to break the deadlock as soon as possible.

The camp of the East Sea demons was built on the shore of a lake eighty miles away from the old city of Yuzhou. The lake was connected to a large river that flowed directly into the East Sea.

After entering the camp, Li Weiyi and his two companions received waist tokens from Prince Baba, which were covered with Eastern Sea demon script.

The vast majority of the demonic beasts stayed in the lake. Only a few patrolling demonic soldiers, clad in armor and carrying spears, moved between the land-based camps.

Prince Baba and Water Lixian went to Princess Dengfeng's place to discuss the attack on the old Yuzhou city.

Inside the tent, Li Weiyi set up a defensive formation and took out a lamp from his bag for illumination.

"The situation is far more difficult and complex than we anticipated. All sides are very interested in the old Yuzhou city. Trying to snatch chestnuts from the fire is as difficult as climbing to heaven," Yang Qingxi said.

Li Weiyi said, "Miss Yang, do you want to back down?"

Yang Qingxi said, "It's only interesting to take chestnuts out of the fire."

Yang Qingchan took out paper and pen and sketched a map of the old Yuzhou city on the table. At the same time, she said, "In the old Yuzhou city, in addition to the Phoenix Blood Tree, there are also resources and wealth such as blood crystals, soul crystals, wisdom spring water, and rare minerals in the Ghost City Treasure Vault."

"The most important reason why so many forces have been attracted here is the spiritual soil and medicinal fields built on the Heavenly Law Spring."

Li Weiyi and Yang Qingxi walked over and looked at the map.

Yang Qingchan's map was very simple, with only the main street and dangerous areas, and she highlighted the locations of the Ghost City Treasure Vault and the Spirit Soil Medicine Field.

She said, "The Phoenix Blood Tree is planted directly above the Heavenly Law Earth Spring, in the core area of ​​the Spirit Soil Medicine Field. There is an ancient formation there, guarded by a large number of Ghost Clan experts, making it extremely dangerous."

"Our current advantage is that we have a clear objective and know the location of the Phoenix Blood Tree in advance, so we can rush there as quickly as possible."

Yang Qingxi said, "The formation protecting the Phoenix Blood Tree and the Spirit Soil Medicine Field must be powerful and beyond our ability to break. Moreover, there are likely a large number of powerful experts guarding it."

Li Weiyi asked, "If the spirits in the city know that the old Yuzhou city cannot be defended, what will they do?"

"Even if we can't hold on, we have to. Only by firmly believing that we can hold on can we possibly win; otherwise, we'll collapse at the first touch," Yang Qingchan said.

Li Weiyi had another idea, but he was unclear about the specific situation in the old Yuzhou city, as well as what preparations the demon race had made.

Footsteps sounded.

A demon messenger arrived outside the tent: "Mr. Lu, Her Highness the Princess requests your presence."

Li Weiyi followed the messenger to a grand hall of magical artifacts located by the water. Countless fist-sized pearls illuminated the hall as if it were daytime.

On both sides of the main hall, dozens of powerful demons sat in rows, many of whom were half-human and half-demon, at different stages of transformation.

Princess Dengfeng's true form is nowhere to be found. There is only a beautiful, human-shaped figure of light and shadow sitting at the top of the palace, dressed in white like gauze and mist, looking very elegant and otherworldly.

Without any demonic aura, he looks more like a Taoist cultivator.

Prince Baba and the Water Lily Fairy sat in the front seats, highlighting their extraordinary status.

Fu Wenyan rose from his seat and strode forward to greet him: "Junior Brother Lu, how have you been since we parted at Liu Nian Zen Temple? I never expected that we would meet here. Everyone, this is my junior brother Xie Chucai from Du'e Temple. Not only is his mental power extraordinary, but his martial arts are also outstanding."

Fu Wenyan used the "Six Thoughts Zen Temple" to remind Li Weiyi that he knew his background.

This is to tell Li Weiyi, I won't expose you, and you shouldn't expose me either.

After exchanging pleasantries with Fu Wenyan, Li Weiyi went to pay his respects to Princess Dengfeng.

Li Weiyi was quite grateful to Princess Dengfeng. If it weren't for her chivalrous help earlier, he might have had to reveal his trump card to escape.

Even if it was for Prince Baba and the Water Lily Fairy, the fact that she dared to confront the two true disciples of Inamiya head-on and valued the life and death safety of her followers so much naturally showed her personal charisma.
