I made the entire cultivation world cry

Chapter 587 Bad News from Dongzhou (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
In the third month of the year Wuyin, spring returned.

"Master, we have arrived in Dongzhou."

Jiang Yi returned from the deck and told Danxi and the others that the Eastern Continent was already in sight, and they had been adrift at sea for more than a year.

"It's not over until we reach the shore, Nine of Bamboo!"

Xuanhui draws and plays a card, "Little Chicken!"

"Bang!" Long Ri reacted quickly. "Yeah, what's the rush?"

Unfortunately, before Long Ri could get a tile to meld, Jiang Yurong silently pushed away her tile.

Unlike the other three, who were already swaying and slouching with an air of roguishness, Jiang Yurong always sat upright and meticulously.

Upon hearing this, Danxi and Xuanhui both widened their eyes. Seeing Jiang Yurong's hand of pure single-suit hook, Danxi turned around and slapped Xuanhui.

"Do you even know how to fight? You're the one who always sets the shots!"

Long Ri nodded hurriedly, "Yes, I bet big this time, and I lost all the gifts I brought for my apprentice."

Xuan Hui said with a mournful face, "Your Majesty, why don't you let me go and cultivate? I am now at the same cultivation level as Hua Gu, and I am not at peace with myself!"

While the three were arguing, Jiang Yurong had already silently activated the talisman array on the table and started shuffling the cards to prepare for the next round. No one would believe she was forced to join them in playing cards.

Seeing this, Jiang sighed, shook his head, silently closed the door, and left, not wanting to disturb their enjoyment.

Mahjong is addictive; even Jin Wanguan of Fuguanghai couldn't resist it and bought two more sets from Jiang Yi before they parted ways.

Finally, they simply signed a contract. For every set of mahjong sold in Fuguanghai, Jiang Yi would receive 10% of the copyright fee, settled every five years. The Jubao Guild would send someone to Jiuxiaoyun Pavilion, where she could collect the payment from any location in Dongzhou.

This trip to Fuguanghai took three years in total, including the time spent on the road.

Even Hong Li didn't have many spirit stones left, but she had plenty of various materials hunted from the Floating Light Sea. Jin Wanguan had also given her quite a few.

As Jiang Yi leaned against the railing, pondering how to sell these materials, she noticed that the Golden Core cultivator from Jubaohang, who was in charge of the ship, was secretly watching a person sitting silently on the deck.

That was Tianxin Xibing. When they boarded the ship, Jiang Yi had Tianxin Xibing disguise himself as someone from another place and board the ship as well. There were also many rogue cultivators on board, so they were not conspicuous at the time.

In fact, Jiang Yi had noticed the manager looking at Tianxin several times along the way.

The ship's docking point in Dongzhou was located in Lizhou Border City, which was Xia Changying's territory.

From the Floating Light Sea to Dongzhou, it was not yet time for the route to open, but the winds at sea were raging, and only their master could ensure the safety of the ship.

Over the course of the year, Jiang Yi had become quite familiar with this manager. He immediately leaned over and gestured with his chin towards Tianxin, who was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed on the deck.

"Doesn't she look familiar?" Jiang Yi asked telepathically.

The middle-aged cultivator bowed respectfully to Jiang Yi, a Nascent Soul cultivator, before replying, "I dare not say, but she does indeed resemble the person the Ziyang Sect of Lizhou has posted a notice to find."

I knew they recognized me. Good thing they did.

"Are you from Lizhou?"

The middle-aged cultivator nodded, "Yes, I grew up in Lizhou. When I reached the Foundation Establishment stage, I went to Fuguanghai with my family. Over the years, I have been in charge of this merchant ship, traveling between Dongzhou and Fuguanghai."

Jiang Yi nodded and didn't say anything more.

Once the ship docked at the border town pier, Jiang Yi immediately ordered Tianxin to cease hostilities and disembark, disappearing into the crowd.

She urged them again before Danxi and the others reluctantly put away their cards and came out of the cabin.

Having not seen the sunlight for a year, one by one they had to raise their hands to shield their eyes and squint to see people.

Xuan Hui glared at Jiang Yi through gritted teeth, feeling that Jiang Yi was trying to harm his master. Jiang Yi smiled, "Senior Brother Xuan Hui, why are you looking at me like that?"

Jiang Yi emphasized the word "senior brother," which made Xuan Hui glare angrily. He snorted and left.

Danxi stood on the dock and surveyed the border town of Lizhou. "This dock in Lizhou doesn't even look as good as the Nanguan Ferry in our Beixuan."

Jiang Yi said in a low voice, "Master, let's keep a low profile. We'd better go back to the Cangling Sect in Zhongzhou via the teleportation array first, and talk to our grandmaster and the others before we talk about this."

Danxi did not object to this, as she had not seen her master for several hundred years.

Not long after Jiang Yi and the others left, two Golden Core cultivators dressed in Ziyang Sect attire appeared outside an inn at the dock. After entering, they inquired about Tianxin's room and cautiously approached.

Unaware of the presence of any living person behind the door, the two boldly entered, only to find the room indeed empty except for a piece of paper with red writing on it, with a dagger stuck in the table.

I'm coming to see you

……

After a long journey, Danxi and her group finally returned to the foot of the Cangling Sect in Zhongzhou.

The scene before us is vastly different from what it used to be. The Cangling Sect is now flourishing and becoming increasingly powerful.

As she traveled, Danxi noticed that in the nearby cities, demon tamers could be seen everywhere with their demon spirits, making her feel as if she had been transported to another world.

Xuan Hui couldn't help but sigh, "Are there already so many demon tamers in Zhongzhou? A quick glance reveals more than sword cultivators."

Witnessing this scene, Long Ri sighed softly, "I left when the sect was established, and not much time has passed since then. How come it feels... like we've returned to the time in Bei Xuan?"

Danxi patted Jiang Yi's shoulder heavily, "Thanks to you, the Cangling Sect is what it is today."

Jiang Yi smiled and said, "I dare not take credit for this. It is all the result of the hard work of Grandmaster Su Hua and everyone else. But why didn't Grandmaster Su Hua come? I clearly sent her a message saying that I would meet her at the mountain gate."

Jiang Yi turned to look around, and Xuan Hui excitedly flew into the sky to survey the current Cangling Sect.

Only Jiang Yurong, gazing at the thriving Cangling Sect before her, revealed a deep sense of melancholy and loneliness in her eyes, and felt an indescribable bitterness and envy rising in her heart.

She was filled with mixed emotions; the Xuan Ying Sword Sect... was finally gone.

Times have changed, and it is probably impossible to rebuild it now.

"The Cangling Sect...how fortunate they are."

Jiang Yurong gripped her sword tightly, her eyes lowered, lost in thought.

Jiang Yi and Long Ri both had Cangling Sect tokens. They led a few people into the sect first. As they walked on the mountain path, they saw Chisongzi rushing down the mountain path in a hurry.

In just three short years, Chishongzi has successfully formed his core, which must have been thanks to the help of his grandmaster, Suhua.

Upon seeing Danxi and the others, Chisongzi was overjoyed and quickly stepped forward, saying, "True Lord Danxi, Demon Lord Xuanhui, True Lord Yurong, True Lord Longri, it is fortunate that you were able to return safely."

Before Danxi could speak, Xuanhui put his hands on his hips and said, "Look carefully, now you should address him as True Venerable."

Chisongzi was taken aback, then looked at Danxi again, overjoyed. "Congratulations to True Venerable Danxi on your transformation into a Nascent Soul. It's just a pity that the timing is so unfortunate, otherwise I would definitely hold a grand welcome banquet for True Venerable Danxi."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yi and Dan Xi both sensed that something was wrong. Dan Xi asked, "What happened? Where is my master?"

Chisongzi sighed heavily, "I shouldn't be saying these things on such a joyous day, but the current situation... Half a year ago, the Sea-Stabilizing Array set up in the northern sea area of ​​Dongzhou encountered the first invasion of the demonic tide."

"Who would have thought that the boundary-stabilizing array, which was set up by numerous Nascent Soul cultivators and several Void Refinement cultivators using a massive amount of materials, couldn't even stop the demonic tide in a single encounter? The Sea-Stabilizing Array has been broken, and the demonic tide is rushing towards the Eastern Continent at an extremely fast speed!"

　There are two more chapters today. I'll update later this afternoon; I have something to do at noon.
