The ancient giant bear hiding in the world of immortal cultivation

Chapter 469 It turns out I wasn't the murderer.

"Huh? This is it—"

Wang Wu was completely bewildered. "Little sister, what are you thinking? Logically and emotionally, everything here belongs to Lord Frost Lord, even me. From now on, I will live as a person of Frost Domain and die as a ghost of Frost Domain. I swear this to the Great Dao..."

“No need to swear.” Qingxue stopped Wang Wu. “My master said that you did very well this time. She is very grateful to you and doesn’t even know how to thank you enough. So, she can grant you five requests.”

"Can five things be exchanged for one of yours?" Wang Wu laughed heartily, half-jokingly, not thinking it was too outrageous.

Cultivators are free and unrestrained. Can't they even take a joke? What's wrong with flirting?
He wasn't insisting on marrying Qingxue, but he felt she was very suitable to be his wife.

That's it.

"I—I haven't thought about it yet. Could you give me some time to consider it?" Qingxue finally gave a positive response to the matter, which was a huge step forward.

"No problem, it's fine if you don't want to. Just take it as a joke. I just feel like we click. Okay, let's leave this topic aside and get down to business. Shall I help you activate the Vermilion Bird Array Soul now?"

"No need, you can just watch this time."

Qingxue seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and then began to take out all sorts of things from her Qiankun bag, and one by one, very formally, she arranged them on each of the Heaven and Earth Needles.

Wang Wu couldn't understand it, and neither could the four clowns; they could only watch the spectacle.

After Qingxue had set up all forty-nine Heaven and Earth Needles, she turned to Wang Wu and said, "This is a special immortal array that can match the Vermilion Bird Array Soul. It is also the most important part of cultivating the Vermilion Bird Array Soul. However, because of this, there is only one chance to operate it. In other words, there is no need to build any more Heaven and Earth Needles in the future. These forty-nine are enough."

"Is it because of the war? But it's entirely possible—give me a little more time, and I'll get you sixty-four." Wang Wu was completely confused and felt it was a pity.

Because 36 is a multiple of 6, 49 is a multiple of 7, and 64 is a multiple of 8, these are all fundamental variables that can make the Vermilion Bird Array Soul stronger.

"No, it's too late. In five days, my master will be going back to the battlefield. At that time, she will be the focus of the Tian Shu Immortal Alliance. Without the Vermilion Bird Array Soul, she will die."

At this point, Qingxue seemed to have made a decision, as if she had thought of something. She immediately said softly, "You may not know, but you saved my master's life. So, I am truly grateful to you, and therefore, I agree to your request."

"That's my honor—ah?" Wang Wu was stunned, almost unable to react.

At this moment, Qingxue suddenly removed her three-defense armor, rose into the air, and began to activate her special immortal array.

Wang Wu was pleasantly surprised, but that was all. He didn't pay any attention to the so-called immortal array. He simply admired Qingxue's appearance in mid-air. Her long hair danced, her clothes fluttered, and she was elegant and dignified, a perfect match for a family. What a wonderful marriage and a good Daoist partner!

It wasn't until Qingxue's immortal array was halfway through its operation and began to form a huge phantom of a Vermilion Bird that he blinked. No, this wasn't the one he had created before. This one looked big and majestic, but it was actually quite silly.

Of course, it's not particularly dull either; it's quite good, much better than the Azure Dragon Array Soul next door.

Wang Wu wanted to remind him that he had summoned the Vermilion Bird array spirit with forty-nine Heaven and Earth Needles, so it couldn't be inferior to the small one he had created before.

However, after glancing at the almost one-time use special immortal array, Wang Wu obediently shut up.

He knew that the Frost Domain had almost gone bankrupt because of this huge project, and the Frost Lord's family was also running out of food. It would be cruel and heartless to offer a reminder at this time, and it would be shameful to waste resources.

Okay, actually it's not bad.

Wang Wu began stroking his chin, and in one breath, he found a full 982 merits in this Vermilion Bird Array Soul.

Really, although there are still 724 shortcomings, the Frost Lord is so powerful that he can make up for them. As long as he doesn't encounter a Taiyi True Immortal who has mastered the ability to see through spiritual essence, is of equal strength, and also possesses a formation soul, it will be fine.

So it's not so bad after all!

As time passed, the special immortal array was fully operational, and the Vermilion Bird array spirit grew to the size of a peacock, looking magnificent and incredibly agile.

It's absolutely perfect; even with the most subtle spiritual techniques, you can't see any flaws.

It's done, and the overall power of this Vermilion Bird array spirit is indeed greater than the previous one.

"Wang Wu, thank you."

"These words are on behalf of my master." Qingxue was clearly very happy and let out a long sigh of relief, looking at Wang Wu with bright eyes.

"That's great, but there's no need to be so polite. From now on, your master is my master..."

Unexpectedly, Qingxue's face hardened. "Shut up, don't talk nonsense! Um, I mean, the title of master and disciple cannot be used to spread nonsense. My master will be very angry if he hears this."

"I know, I know. Your master looks so scary. Although she tries her best to appear approachable, I'm really terrified when I see her. My liver trembles. Haha, don't talk bad about me. By the way, you didn't tell your master about our secret, did you?" Wang Wu was still a little worried because he was genuinely afraid of Shuang Jun.

Qingxue blinked, finally unable to suppress a slight laugh.

"What secret? You killed Qin Yu? No, how could that be? Besides, three days ago, Old Gray supposedly performed a divine calculation, saying that it was Feng Muhan who killed Qin Yu! So, don't try to take those undeserved titles upon yourself."

"Huh? Killed Qin Yu? Just for show?"

Wang Wu was completely bewildered. "That's right, it wasn't you who killed Qin Yu, it was Feng Muhan. Old Gray's level 27 divine calculation couldn't be wrong."

Qingxue's smile grew even brighter, and she couldn't resist giving him a light kick.
"I almost fell for your trick before. You're quite the actor. But I never expected Feng Muhan to do something like this. That kid usually keeps a low profile, but it really was him. That's why Elder Hui came to my master's door to reconcile."

"What?"

Wang Wu's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.

Heavens above, earth below, this shouldn't be happening!

"Because the Qin family had an affair with the Heavenly Pivot Immortal Alliance, their patriarch and direct descendants have fled to the Heavenly Pivot Immortal Alliance, and the rest of the Qin family have all been executed. Elder Hui came to express his gratitude and even gave Feng Muhan a celestial artifact..."

"Damn it!" Wang Wu didn't even want to say anything more.

"Alright, the war outside is dangerous right now, so don't rush out. It's definitely safe here. I'll take you out after the war is over. Now, I need to take the Vermilion Bird Array Soul to report back."

"Take care of yourself and stop talking nonsense. If you get into trouble while I'm gone, no one will be able to protect you. Oh, right, there's one more thing. Elder Hui has redeemed himself through meritorious service and has now officially become a second-rank elder, listed in the Hidden Origin Elder Council. Last time he reconciled with my master, he even asked you if you wanted to go back and be his only disciple at the moment."

"Huh? How could that be? Even a good horse doesn't turn back to eat the grass it already grazed. Why would I go back? All his disciples are dead now. This guy is a jinx to his disciples. I'd only go back if I were tired of living."

Wang Wu shook his head immediately, "What a joke."

Qingxue looked at him seriously for a few moments, her gaze as calm as a still lake and as deep as a pool, making Wang Wu feel a chill down his spine. Fortunately, in the end, she smiled gently, her beauty unparalleled in an instant.

“That’s right, my master said that Wang Zhige is dead.”

After saying that, Qingxue jumped onto the three-proof boat and quickly left, leaving Wang Wu standing there in a daze. The changes outside were really too great.

The Qin family betrayed them, Gray Elder was promoted, and all his disciples died. But then, Gray Elder, who was promoted, came to reconcile with Frost Lord? Surely Frost Lord wasn't promoted too?

Also, what about Gray Elder's level 27 divine calculation? How come he didn't predict that the Qin family would betray them?
Furthermore, Feng Muhan actually became the hero who killed Qin Yu.

Moreover, it was calculated by Gray Elder's level 27 divine calculation, and even Qingxue believed it.

This...this...where do I even begin!
Could it be related to that Greatest Common Pill?

Wang Wu blinked, thinking that this was probably the answer: he indirectly killed Qin Yu with the Greatest Covenant Pill, and then saved Feng Muhan with the Greatest Covenant Pill.

So that's why Gray Elder designated Feng Muhan as his level 27 diviner!

This is really what a coincidence.

At last,
Feng Muhan said this was a celestial elixir. Could it be that he couldn't even distinguish the nature of the Greatest Common Pill?

Doesn't he have any doubts? Why doesn't he refute them?

Impossible. Feng Muhan is a fifth-level Taiyi True Immortal, how could he be so foolish? It's most likely because of the overall situation. The higher-ups hope that the two factions, Gray Elder and Frost Lord, can maintain the most basic peace.

After all, if even second-rank elders continue to fight amongst themselves, it will cause enormous damage to the foundation of the Hidden Origin Society.

Therefore, the best approach is to let bygones be bygones.

After thinking for a long time, Wang Wu smiled slightly. It was all good. Everything was going well. He could be considered to have achieved success in both family, love, and career.

It's a pity about Snake Nineteen and the others; their dragon tendons were extracted. If he had stayed in Dragon Head City, he probably wouldn't have been able to avoid this fate either.

So what's next—wait?

Wang Wu suddenly had a thought, and saw that the Heaven and Earth Needle not far away slowly disappeared into the ground, becoming one with the earth, or even ceased to exist. Even if he tried to dig it up immediately, all he found was the most ordinary soil.

It's gone, it's disappeared.

Wang Wu hurriedly activated his spiritual energy absorption technique, but the result was the same: the Heaven and Earth Needle disappeared—no, all forty-nine Heaven and Earth Needles disappeared.

What is the principle?
He hurriedly went to check the other Heaven and Earth Needles, but they were gone, truly gone, except for the ruins of the remaining Heaven and Earth Needles.

At this moment, he even felt that the Yin and Yang energies within the Great Wilderness Prison Tower had become much more stable, as if—could this be related to Qingxue taking away the Vermilion Bird Array Soul?

Wang Wu hurriedly rushed towards his neighbor's house, but of course he didn't dare get close. The other party didn't care who he was; anyone who dared to approach would be killed without mercy.

However, he soon noticed that the Heaven and Earth Needle combination next door, which was mainly composed of Azure Dragon Array Symbols, had a total of eighty-one complete Heaven and Earth Needles, and they were also deploying related immortal arrays.

The method is exactly the same as Qingxue's.
