Recruit demons to become heroes, hunt demons to become gods

Chapter 244: Effortless Gain, Eastern Ukraine Changes Owner

"Okay! Princess Nine, please come into the mansion!"

Xiang Jiangyun welcomed Sun Jiuniang and her two daughters into the mansion, but he was not in a hurry to find out the purpose of the Ninth Princess's visit. Instead, he set up a grand banquet to entertain them.

However, there were only three women at the banquet. No senior members of the Xiang family came to accompany them, nor did they send any representatives to pay their respects or present any gifts.

As the saying goes, after three rounds of wine and five kinds of dishes, people will start talking naturally.

At first, the topics that the three of them talked about were still irrelevant topics that were of interest to the female monks, such as commenting on the young talents of Eastern Ukraine.

Unconsciously, the spiritual fruit wine they were drinking was replaced by Zhenshu Lingcui wine.

Zhenshu Lingcui Wine is a spiritual wine specially brewed for female cultivators. Its color is as crystal clear as morning dewdrops, and its aroma is rich, as if you can smell the fragrance of hundreds of different kinds of flowers blooming.

Normally, it is used for female practitioners to discuss scriptures and truths. Whenever they raise this glass of wine, they feel as if they are in a Taoist realm and their souls are purified.

It not only enables female practitioners to think actively and generate inspiration during discussions on scriptures and doctrines, but also makes it impossible for them to conceal or tell lies, making every conversation full of the collision of sincerity and wisdom.

After Xiang Jiangyun and Sun Jiuniang drank a cup together, she leaned over and asked:
"The Ninth Princess said she had a chance to see me off. Is this true?"

"Absolutely true! This opportunity to help you break through your current bottleneck is crucial to your life!"

Sun Jiuniang said it without thinking.

"how do I say this?"

"Sister Yun, have you ever considered finding a Taoist companion?"

Sun Jiuniang changed the subject and asked Xiang Jiangyun.

"How dare I be the Ninth Princess's sister? I occasionally fantasize about being a Taoist couple, but I never take it to heart."

"I, Miss Jiu, accept you as my younger sister! The opportunity I mentioned can not only help you break through the bottleneck and reach the Refining Void Realm, but it is also related to finding Sister Yun a good match for you in this life..."

While Sun Jiuniang was trying to sell Dou Eqing to Xiang Jiangyun, Li Widow was adding to her comments and agreeing with her from time to time.

The two women almost praised Dou Eqing to the point that he was the most unique person in the world. They used all kinds of words to praise him, as if he was the perfect match for all the female cultivators in the world.

However, Xiang Jiangyun did not seem moved at all.

Her eyes were still as calm as water, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, as if all this had nothing to do with her. Deep in her heart, she seemed to have more determined goals and pursuits.

"why?"

Sun Jiuniang finally had no choice but to ask directly.

"Let it be. If it's really that good, then it must be destined for me. After all, the red thread you tied wasn't tied in vain. It has already woven me and him together."

After Xiang Jiangyun finished speaking, Sun Jiuniang and Li Widow looked at each other, their eyes meeting in the air, as if they had the same doubts.

"So you were just pretending! You're clearly moved but you're still pretending to be stubborn. How unstraightforward!"

Widow Li was secretly dissatisfied with Xiang Jiangyun.

"Okay! It all depends on fate."

Sun Jiuniang saw through it but didn't say anything. There was a hint of deep wisdom in her eyes, and the corners of her mouth were raised, as if she was savoring some unspeakable secret.

When she was matchmaking for Xiang Jiangyun in Xiba City, Ye took further action.

Because of the influence of the situation in Dongwu Country and Ye Die's worries about her father, she actually began to reject the Demon Slave Seal that Dou Eqing had planted on her.

Because all signs indicate that Sun Jiuniang's side has formed an alliance with Ye Die to compete with the leader of the Eastern Wu Kingdom.

But Dou Eqing was their center.

In other words, Dou Eqing opposed Ye Die becoming the empress, which indirectly hindered her from saving her father.

Although Ye Die cannot do anything to directly harm Dou Eqing, she can fight against Dou Eqing indirectly.

Ye Die used obscure means to let Ye Xieshun know that Dou Eqing did not die in the last attack, and that Dou Eqing was the key to the whole incident of Sun Jiu Niang's connection with Li Widow and Xiang Jiangyun.

Therefore, Ye Xieshun decided to kill Dou Eqing again.

And this time we must make full preparations and set up a tight net.

For this reason, the Ye family pretended not to notice Sun Jiuniang's secret actions and waited for Dou Eqing to appear.

In addition, Ye Nashi was ordered by Ye Xieshun to protect Ye Duba.

Ye Nashi was originally not going to obey the order, but she could not resist Ye Die's pleading, so she had to leave Jianye City and pretend to go to the Cave of Ten Thousand Demons.

Fortunately, Sun Jiuniang persuaded Shi Li Yuqiu, otherwise, if the Ye family wanted to fight to the death, all of Sun Jiuniang's actions would be in vain.

The Jade Puppet's clone left Ye Na's residence and waited at the ruins for the original to appear.

Three years passed in this defense.

A lot of things happened during these three years.

The conflict between the Ye family and the side allied with Sun Jiuniang became most intense after the news of Ye Duba's death came.

Half a year ago, it was confirmed that Ye Duba had unfortunately died in the Cave of Ten Thousand Demons. Various conspiracies were connected, and it was rumored that Ye Duba's death was related to the Xiang family.

Rumor has it that it was the Xiang family cultivator who leaked Ye Duba's whereabouts during the mission, which led to him being ambushed by the demons and unable to even escape.

When Ye Nashi returned, Ye regarded her as a traitor and wanted to punish her.

Sun Jiuniang led the Li family to stand up and protect Ye Nashi, saying that she was the pillar of the East Wu Kingdom.

Since then, the two sides have been in complete opposition.

Although there was no open fighting, they were secretly killing each other and assassinations were happening every day.

At this time, Shi Li Yuqiu was only the regent and seemed to be in a neutral attitude. He had not yet publicly supported Sun Jiuniang.

Therefore, the overall combat power of both sides seemed to be evenly matched, causing some members of the royal Sun family to secretly defect to the Ye family.

After a series of bloody battles, both sides suffered heavy losses.

Originally, because the Ten Thousand Demons Cave had drawn away a large number of cultivators from the Eastern Wu Kingdom, the on-site confrontation had greatly reduced the strength of the Eastern Wu Kingdom.

Fortunately, the Baishan Sect, which is hostile to the Eastern Ukrainian State, did not intervene, otherwise the consequences would be unpredictable.

Of course, it was also because the Baishan Sect carried out the orders of the Judgment Hall more thoroughly, and the combat effectiveness of the remaining Baishan Sect was very low, so they did not seize this good opportunity to attack the Eastern Ukrainian Kingdom.

When both sides were preparing to stop fighting and ease the situation, Dou Eqing appeared.

When Ye Nashi took advantage of the dusk when no one was paying attention to her and secretly went to see Dou Eqing, she was followed by Ye Xieshun.

When she arrived at the ruins, Ye Xieshun suddenly attacked and wanted to kill Dou Eqing.

Three-meter-deep weeds had grown among the ruins. Dou Eqing hid among them, but he could not escape Ye Xieshun's spiritual detection.

Ye Xieshun first controlled a bone sword to break through the air and kill Dou Eqing, but the first wave of attacks was blocked by the Xuanmo Holy Armor's autonomous protection.

The combat experience of the powerful Lianxu warriors is so rich that if the first attack fails, the next attack will follow.

Therefore, it took Ye Nashi a while to react to his second attack.

The pressure from the Refining Void Realm was like a mad dragon emerging from the abyss. Before Ye Xieshun closed his left palm, his right sleeve had already rolled up a strong wind!
The palm print that could destroy mountains and break peaks was still vibrating on Dou Eqing's chest when the second soul-stirring cold light had already torn through the void and pierced towards him.

When Ye Nashi's pupils suddenly shrank, the bone sword was controlled by Ye Xieshun and reversed to attack, less than three inches away from Dou Eqing's throat.

In a split second, she instinctively twisted her body to block the blow, and her right shoulder blade exploded into a bloody mist—Crack! The sound of bone cracking drowned out the sound of the weapon breaking through the air!

"How dare you, you rat!
"As Ye Xieshun roared, a cold light flashed from his sleeves, aiming straight at Dou Eqing's throat!
Ye Nashi gritted her teeth, and her blood-stained sleeves rolled up like a blood waterfall hanging from the sky. She used her flesh and blood body to intercept the fatal trajectory.

The moment the murderous intent from the Lianxu realm passed through his body, his slender body flew backwards three feet like a kite with a broken string, but it drew a scarlet arc of light in the air, protecting Dou Eqing firmly behind the blood curtain!
Ye Nashi was originally inferior to Ye Xieshun in strength, and now that she was injured by Ye Xieshun, her combat power was greatly reduced, and she was no match for Ye Xieshun at all.

Fortunately, the Jade Puppet's clone reacted quickly. After the original body felt that it was being targeted by murderous intent, it immediately contacted Sun Jiuniang.

"Too little offering! Our Dou Lang is going to be killed by that old bastard Ye Xieshun! Go and rescue him!"

Sun Jiuniang had no choice but to contact Shi Li Yuqiu for help urgently.

Not long after, a battle between three powerful masters of the Void Refinement Realm broke out in the sky above the East Wu Kingdom.

The sky was covered with dark clouds and spiritual power, as if foreshadowing an earth-shattering showdown.

Shi, Li, Yuqiu and the other two each displayed their unique skills, and the powerful spiritual power fluctuations swept across most of the capital of Dongwu Kingdom like a tsunami.

Shi, Li, Yuqiu and the other two moved like lightning, shuttling between the clouds. Every confrontation caused a violent explosion that was deafening.

The low-level cultivators in Jianye City all looked up, their eyes filled with awe and fear. They had never seen such a shocking battle scene.

Although Shi Li Yuqiu's cultivation is higher than Ye Xieshun's, he lacks practical experience, and his combat effectiveness in battle is comparable to Ye Xieshun's.

But it always seems a little unfamiliar, as if every step is testing the other party's reaction.

Ye Xieshun, on the other hand, appeared to be very experienced. Each of his attacks was extremely precise, as if he had already calculated every possible move of his opponent.

Before Shi Li Yuqiu arrived, Ye Nashi was hit by Ye Xieshun's sword again in order to protect Dou Eqing, causing her combat power to drop to the lowest level, only slightly stronger than a cultivator who had reached the great perfection of the Spirit Transformation Realm.

Her figure swayed in the sword light, blood stained her robes red, and her eyes revealed that she was somewhat powerless.

Despite this, she still protected Dou Eqing tightly and prevented him from getting hurt.

In fact, he just didn't want Dou Eqing to be injured by the aftermath of the battle.

In this battle between the three Void Refining cultivators, Ye Nashi could only play a restraining role and had no way to join forces with Shi Li Yuqiu to defeat Ye Xieshun.

Ye Nashi also advised Dou Eqing many times to hide in Ziwei Fairy Mansion first, but he refused.

After seeing the situation of the war clearly, Dou Eqing felt that he needed to take action himself to end the war to avoid any changes in the end.

He was going to try to cast the Soul-Eating Curse.

In more than five years, with the help of the Soul-Eating Butterfly, Dou E had basically mastered the attack method of the Soul-Eating Curse.

However, his Soul-Eating Curse has not yet been used in actual combat, so it is unknown how powerful it is.

What's more, now he has to cross levels to deal with Ye Xieshun who is in the Void Refinement Realm.

The favorable situation for Dou Eqing was that the target of his attack was restrained by Ye Nashi and the other two, and there was no one to prevent him from casting a spell.

Not long after the Lianxu War began, the Jindan cultivators on both sides also restrained each other.

The air in Jianye City was filled with strong fluctuations of spiritual energy, as if every breath brought a biting chill.

In addition, many Jindan cultivators who had deep grudges against each other also started fighting.

Swords flashed, spells intertwined, and every collision caused a violent energy explosion, and the deafening sound echoed over the battlefield.

Dou Eqing didn't care about these things, his eyes were fixed on Ye Xieshun's figure.

The first time he cast the Soul-Devouring Curse, it was not successful and failed to cause any harm to Ye Xieshun, but it attracted Ye Xieshun's attention.

After all, the Soul-Eating Curse was Ye Die's specialty, and Ye Xieshun was very familiar with it.

He had witnessed the power of the Soul-Eating Curse in countless battles. It was a terrifying curse that could penetrate deep into the enemy's soul, tear it apart, and even devour the opponent's soul.

Whenever the Soul-Devouring Curse is activated, the air seems to be filled with an icy breath, which makes people shudder.

Ye Xieshun knew very well the horror of the Soul-Devouring Curse. That kind of soul attack that could cause a person to collapse instantly was enough to make any opponent lose their combat effectiveness in an instant, or even kill them instantly.

He immediately contacted Ye Die and asked her to find the monk who cast the soul-devouring curse.

Ye Die knew who was using the Soul-Devouring Curse on Ye Xieshun without even looking.

"Grandpa, I don't want to be the queen anymore. Let's stop. I don't want to lose you, my only relative."

Ye Die did not try to stop Dou Eqing from casting the spell, but instead tried to persuade Ye Xieshun first.

Because she knew better than Ye Xieshun that the Soul-Devouring Butterfly was now even more powerful, and the power of the Soul-Devouring Curse was unimaginable.

Even though Dou Eqing had just started practicing the "Soul-Devouring Immortal Art", with the assistance of the Soul-Devouring Butterfly, the power of his Soul-Devouring Curse would not be weaker than Ye Die's.

All things considered, there is a high possibility that Ye Xieshun will lose.

Under such circumstances, Ye Die persuaded Dou Eqing to stop, and the only condition she could propose was that both sides stop fighting.

Since both sides are going to stop fighting, if Ye Xieshun can stop early, it will be easier for both sides to reach a settlement.

Of course, after Ye Die persuaded Ye Xieshun, she immediately contacted Dou Eqing.

"Dou Lang, I am already your woman. Can you spare my grandfather's life?"

She asked Dou Eqing directly.

In fact, what she said has two meanings.

Another meaning is that Dou Eqing is responsible for her father's death.

This is equivalent to Ye Die's request and blame.

Ye Nashi blocked two attacks from Ye Xieshun for Dou Eqing and once said to Dou Eqing strangely:
"Die'er is innocent, Dou Lang must treat her well."

Ye Nashi didn't know that Shi Li Yuqiu was on Sun Jiuniang's side. After being seriously injured by Ye Xieshun, she made the worst plan, which was that she might die at Ye Xieshun's hands.

If she was killed by Ye Xieshun, Ye Nashi knew that Dou Eqing would definitely avenge Ye Xieshun for her.

She believed that Dou Eqing could avenge her, but she was afraid that after Dou Eqing killed Ye Xieshun to avenge herself, he would harm Ye Die.

Therefore, even in such a situation, we still have to speak for Ye Die.

When Dou Eqing heard Ye Die's words, she couldn't help but think of what Ye Nashi had said for her. After some thought, she replied to her.

"Tell your grandfather to stop attacking Sister Na. She's been seriously injured. As long as the Eastern Ukrainian people obey my orders from now on, we will be one family, sharing prosperity and wealth."

He inexplicably admitted that Ye Die was his woman. Although he said it very vaguely, it was enough to show his desire for Ye Die.

After practicing the "Soul-Devouring Immortal Art" for five years, Dou Eqing felt that he had no talent in this area.

This feeling is especially profound when I compare myself with Ye Die.

During the practice, he kept asking the Soul-Devouring Butterfly a question, that is, whether it was also so difficult for Ye Die to practice the "Soul-Devouring Immortal Art".

The answer that the Soul-Eating Butterfly always gave him was that for Ye Die to practice the "Soul-Eating Immortal Art" was as easy as eating and drinking water.

Therefore, after practicing for a while, Dou Eqing came up with an idea, which was to let Ye Die control the Soul-Devouring Butterfly and use her to cast the Soul-Devouring Curse.

Therefore, at this time he would subconsciously admit that Ye Die was his woman.

In addition to being a beautiful woman herself, Ye Die also has extraordinary wisdom and unique charm.

Her smile looked very sweet, and her loveliness once made him feel pity.

Ye Zai has excellent talent in practicing the "Soul-Devouring Immortal Art", which is of extraordinary value to him.

This is also because Dou Eqing's current consciousness is not the original consciousness. Many decisions are based on interests without too many emotional elements.

"Grandpa, let's stop. The Soul Devouring Butterfly may have grown to the sixth level now. We can only look forward."

Ye Die didn't know how to convince Ye Xieshun to stop, so she had to bring out the Soul-Eating Butterfly, hoping that Ye Xieshun would give up.

When Ye Xieshun learned that the Soul Devouring Butterfly had broken through to the sixth level, he was also a little troubled. At the same time, he felt a little fortunate that the person who had cast the Soul Devouring Curse before was not a cultivator like Ye Die who had completely mastered the Soul Devouring Curse.

Otherwise, his life would have been in danger long ago.

"You can stop, but what are their conditions?"

Ye Xieshun showed an attitude of not admitting defeat.

In fact, he is strong on the outside but weak on the inside. His heart is no longer at peace, but he just can't bring himself to show weakness.

As for the grudges between forces, he has lived for so long that he has already seen through them.

He knew very well that the grudges in this world were nothing more than pawns in the game of power and interests. In the end, evil would be swallowed up by the torrent of time. The only rational choice was to survive.

For the sake of each other's interests, it is not necessary to fight to the death. There is also the option of compromise.

This is the way for a force to survive in the long run.

Ye Die didn't want to ask Dou Eqing about Ye Xieshun's question.

Because Ye Die felt that they did not have enough bargaining chips against Dou Eqing and others, and could not make better demands.

"Immortal-level skills."

She had no choice but to ask Xiang Yexie Shun to lie and give her a condition for stopping.

If he really couldn't get a suitable immortal-level technique from Dou Eqing, Ye Die would use the "Helong Yufeng Jue" that he had practiced to take the blame.

When Ye Xieshun heard that it was an immortal-level martial arts technique, it was like a big pie fell from the sky and hit him.

In his imagination, the pie exuded a faint fairy air, as if it also carried a hint of mysterious light, which made him feel excited.

He could hardly believe his ears. This was the skill that countless cultivators had dreamed of, and now it was right in front of him so easily.

"If he had told me earlier that he had a fairy-level technique, wouldn't it be natural for us to submit to him?"

Ye Xieshun kept criticizing Dou Eqing in his heart.

Then, the battle of Lianxu in the air ended without Ye Na and her two maids knowing why.

"I'm so sorry, fellow Taoists. It was all my fault before. I hope you can forgive me in the future."

Ye Xieshun acted politely, bowed slightly, and apologized to Ye Na and the other two maids.

"Did Dou Lang and Die'er reach a reconciliation?"

Ye Na sent a message to ask Dou Eqing.

"Well, you can stop fighting and make peace now."

"That's great……"

Ye Nashi wanted to say something positive, but she didn't know what to say.

Her mind paused, and the injuries on her body were revealed. She could no longer suppress her internal injuries. She felt a sharp pain in her chest and couldn't help coughing up blood. The blood quickly spread on her white clothes, which was particularly glaring.

"Friend Ye, are you okay?"

Shi Li Yuqiu hurried to Ye Nashi's side and asked.

She then followed Ye Nashi's gaze and saw Dou Eqing.

Although this was the first time they met, she felt that Dou Eqing was extremely familiar to her.

Especially Dou Eqing's peach blossom eyes seemed to be sending her a secret glance, which made her heart flutter.

At this moment, she truly felt the wonderful taste brought by love. For the first time in her life, she felt that the black hair wrapped around her fingers was more enchanting than a sword.

Dou Eqing was initially attracted by Ye Nashi's coughing up blood, and then he noticed Shi Li Yuqiu's tender gaze.

His first thought was that his romantic luck had returned.

The second thought was that this female cultivator in the Lianxu realm could be used.

Dou Eqing discovered that Shi Li Yuqiu's cultivation level was higher than Ye Xieshun's.

After all, she has reached the peak of the middle stage of the Refinement Realm, and the next step is the late stage of the Refinement Realm.

If he had a woman in the late stage of the Void Refinement Realm to protect him, he would be very confident in returning to the Demon Hunting Sect.

He couldn't help but think of the plan to plot against the Demon Hunter Sect, and the Demon Hunter's ancestor Yu Fengxian...

Thinking of this, Dou Eqin suddenly realized that time passed very quickly. It had been decades or even hundreds of years since he left the Demon Hunting Sect.

He recalled the brief but unforgettable time he spent in the Demon Hunting Sect.

He has two women in the Demon Hunting Sect. One is Luo Chuyan, a very special person who was transformed from a girl into a woman by him.

The other is his nominal master Liao Yinshu, a woman who brings him a special feeling.

Even though he is not as sensitive to emotions as his original consciousness, recalling these two people still makes his mood fluctuate strongly.

He then thought of the sisters Zhong Liu and Zhong Li from Liao Yinshu.

The twin sisters are now in a strange state.

They originally became special clones of the demon Xu Ci. Later, Xu Ci merged with the Jade Buddha Peony Flower. The two sisters seemed to be completely independent, but because they inherited many of Xu Ci's memories and even merged with part of Xu Ci's spiritual consciousness, they were no longer the original loli twins.

Dou Eqing doesn't know what this pair of loli twins will eventually look like, so he can't help but feel a little bit of anticipation.

……

Although many things flashed through his mind as quickly as lightning, only a few breaths had passed in the outside world when Shi Li Yuqiu's gaze seemed to look over at him.

Because of these memories, Dou Eqing shifted his attention from Shi Li Yuqiu Zhan, and when he came to his senses, he focused his mind on the injured Ye Nashi.

"Sister Na, are you okay?"

Dou Eqing asked anxiously.

"Originally, her injury was not serious, but the problem was that it affected the key spiritual point on her left shoulder, causing the entire meridian in her left hand to be disconnected.

If she can't get treatment in time, her arm might be crippled. The only way to heal it is to cut off her hand and then use a high-level elixir for limb regeneration to grow a new one..."

Shi Li Yuqiu, who was standing by, explained Ye Nashi's injuries to Dou Eqing.

"No, it's not that serious."

Ye Nashi was afraid that Dou Eqing would worry, so she quickly retorted.

Although she wanted to refute Shi Liyuqiu's words, her actual situation made her words seem weak.

"What kind of treatment is needed? What kind of medicine?"

Dou Eqing asked Shi Li Yuqiu hurriedly, his tone showing his worry, his brows furrowed, and a hint of anxiety in his eyes.

"Sixth-level Huiling Pill. The royal family's personal alchemist can refine it, but it requires a relatively rare main ingredient."

"Do you know what the main medicine is? Where can I find it?"

"The elixir of the Spirit Mother from the outer sea. The Spirit Mother is a spiritual beast in the sea..."

Shi Li Yuqiu also introduced Lingmu to Dou Eqing.

Legend has it that a half-acre glazed dome is suspended deep in the Xuhai Abyss, where there lives a spiritual beast called Lingmu.

The Spirit Mother has hanging ice tentacles that can control spiritual mist in the sea.

Its umbrella-shaped body glowed with a cold blue light, and its six layers of translucent umbrella membranes expanded and contracted with the waves. Spiritual energy like star fragments flowed between each layer of folds.

Thousands of icy tentacles hang from the edge of the umbrella cap, with pearly spots at the ends, leaving fluorescent blue traces when they pass over the coral reefs.

It has three pairs of diamond-shaped crystal eyes on the top of its umbrella, arranged in a triangular shape. Its irises are like ice marrow that has been tempered for thousands of years, and they emit the silver glow of the moonlight over the ocean.

When sensing fluctuations in spiritual energy, his pupils cracked open, revealing the swirling, nebula-like spiritual core within. Two crescent-shaped crystal spikes sprouted from his brow bones, emitting frost as his emotions fluctuated.

When the Spirit Mother is cruising, the umbrella membrane will expand into the shape of a twelve-petal lotus, and a light purple spiritual mist wrapped in fine snow will spray out from the center of the umbrella.

Tentacles brushed against injured spirit fish, and where the phosphorescence fell, thin films of ice crystals grew. Occasionally, they hovered among the glowing crystal clusters to feed, and when their tentacles penetrated the cracks in the crystal ore, iridescent ripples appeared, and the surrounding water condensed into suspended ice beads.

When threatened, the umbrella membrane instantly shrinks into a sphere like a glass lampshade, and dazzling aurora bursts out from inside.

All the tentacles curled up into a cocoon of light and wrapped around the main body, refracting thousands of prismatic phantoms. The entire abyss was instantly covered with swimming spots of light, which had already disappeared into the void cracks when the strong light faded.

Very few Spirit Mothers would leave the depths of the Xuhai Abyss, as they are rarely seen outside.

Its inner elixir has extremely high value as medicine and alchemy.

"Alright! Without further ado, let's gather our men and head out to the sea to find the Spirit Mother."

Dou Eqing made a quick decision.

"What about the arrangements for Eastern Ukraine?"

Shi Li Yuqiu blurted out the words and asked Dou Eqing as if it was natural.

What she meant was that Dou Eqing was already in charge of the Eastern Wu Kingdom, and that the Eastern Wu Kingdom seemed to belong completely to Dou Eqing.

After all, her identity is the regent of the Eastern Ukrainian State. Her words not only represent herself, but also have different meanings.

Ye Xieshun, who was not far away, heard Shi Li Yuqiu's words, but not only did he not stand up to refute, he also looked at Dou Eqing seriously, as if waiting for Dou Eqing to give orders.

"I heard there are many opportunities in the outer sea. Would you like to go with us, Ninth Lady?"

Dou Eqing asked Sun Jiuniang who was walking towards them.

"I can't ask for it."

Sun Jiuniang responded to Dou Eqing's invitation without any hesitation.

"Since Jiu Niang has given up being the empress, then Ye Die will ascend the throne and become the queen."

Dou Eqing decided the ownership of the imperial power of the Eastern Wu Kingdom with a casual attitude, as if he was just flipping through an old book. With a light stroke of his finger, he rewrote the fate of various forces in the Eastern Wu Kingdom.

Since Sun Jiuniang herself agreed, it was naturally difficult for other forces in her faction to refute it.

After finding a doctor to stabilize Ye Nashi's injuries, she announced to the public that she was in seclusion to recuperate, but in fact she was taken in by Dou Eqing to the Ziwei Immortal Mansion to heal her injuries at Yangyuanquan.

Then, led by Dou Eqing, accompanied by Sun Jiuniang, Li Widow and Xiang Jiangyun, they headed to the open sea under the protection of Shi Li Yuqiu.

In addition, the female cultivator from the Demon Island that Sun Jiuniang found for Dou Eqing was also taken into the Ziwei Immortal Mansion in case of emergency.

There are both dangers and opportunities in the open sea. In addition to searching for the Spirit Mother's Elixir, everyone also plans to find an opportunity to help Li Widow and Xiang Jiangyun break through the bottleneck during this trip.

The most important thing about this opportunity is the sixth-level spiritual vein.

The spiritual veins of the Baishan Sect were used by Ye Nashi and Yue Fen to break through one after another, and it is not available for a third person to break through the spiritual veins and overcome the tribulation in a short period of time.

Otherwise, it will damage the foundation of the spiritual vein, which will not be worth the loss.

To help Li Widow and her two daughters break through to the Void Refinement Realm, apart from the sixth-order spiritual veins needed to survive the tribulation, all that was left was to break through the bottlenecks in their bodies.

This method is to utilize Dou Eqing's pure yang body, combined with the secret method of breaking through the realm in the immortal-level dual cultivation technique.

But after all, Dou Eqing has only reached the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm. In order to maximize the effect of dual cultivation, he needs the assistance of one or more furnaces with special physical conditions to increase the success rate as much as possible.

Therefore, in addition to the three female cultivators from the Demon Island, the Xiang family and the Li family had made preparations for this, each providing two female cultivators with pure yin bodies in the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm.

In fact, with the help of Shi Li Yuqiu's vital energy, Li Widow and Xiang Jiangyun could also break through the bottleneck.

However, Shi Li Yuqiu's vital energy had to be saved for her own breakthrough.

The same goes for Sun Jiuniang, Li Widow and Xiang Jiangyun.

Otherwise, if one of them doesn't break through, he can contribute his own essence and yin to help the other woman break through.

Although their physiques do not have the quality of a cauldron, their Yuan Yin is extremely pure and has also reached the level of a female Dinglu Yuan Yin.

So, a fifth-level Yunqiong treasure ship carried Dou Eqing and the others to the Xu Sea in the east.

The fifth-level Yunqiong Treasure Ship and the Yunqiong Flying Ship are similar in appearance, but there are essential differences between them, just like the difference between a goshawk and a skylark.

The fifth-tier Cloud Sky Treasure Ship glowed with a cold dark green light. The dragon pattern on the bow emitted a three-foot-long lightning. The hull, engraved with the nine-layered Heavenly Gang formation pattern, glowed with starlight in the sunlight.

Although the Cloud Sky flying ship was also covered with dragon scale armor, only a faint green light of spirit stone was lit at the stern.

The most critical part of both is the muscles and bones.

The former uses dragon bones as its beams, and the thirty-six dragon spines correspond to the celestial constellations. Deep in the dragon bones is embedded a thousand-year-old spirit stone furnace; the latter is just a frame cast from black iron, and although it also has a replica of the Big Dipper formation diagram, it does not have the might of dragon roars when it is in operation.

If it encounters the gale from the nine heavens, nine purple lightning bolts will burst out from the treasure ship's body to form a lightning net, while the defense of the Yunqiong flying ship is relatively weak, and it can only support three green lightning bolts at most.

There were about twenty people on Dou Eqing's trip, but there were only twelve people on the Yunqiong treasure ship, one man and eleven women.

Only Dou Eqing is a male cultivator, the others are all female cultivators.

It can be said that this is a boat full of handsome men and beautiful women.

Dou Eqing is handsome and elegant, with picturesque features, and his every move exudes the demeanor of a masculine god.

The others were all female cultivators, each of them was as beautiful as a flower, with an elegant temperament, like fairies descending to earth.

It was truly a boat full of handsome men and beautiful women. The boat was filled with the fragrance of blooming flowers, as if even the air was stained with their charm.

These eleven female cultivators are Miss Sun Jiu and her two personal maids, Shi Li Yuqiu, Li Widow and the two female cultivators of furnace and cauldron prepared by the Li family, Xiang Jiangyun and the two female cultivators of furnace and cauldron provided by the Xiang family, and a female cultivator in the late stage of the Spirit Transformation who is familiar with the Xuhai sent by the Zhang family.

The female cultivator in the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm sent by the Zhang family is also a favored one of the Zhang family. She said that she was there to lead the way for Dou Eqing and the others. The real intention of the Zhang family was the same as that of Li Widow and Xiang Jiangyun. It can be said that they had other intentions.

Although the various forces in Eastern Ukraine do not know who Dou Eqing is, it is an indisputable fact that Eastern Ukraine is currently in his hands.

Dou Eqing is now equivalent to the defending emperor of the Eastern Wu Kingdom, and every family wants to send beauties to his harem.

Now, Dou Eqing and her crew's Yunqiong treasure ship is like a blooming flower attracting a swarm of bees.

However, the greatest danger comes from Hong Duxiu, the leader of Baishan Sect.

Hong Duxiu has been searching for the female cultivator from the Demon Island. Although he has made some gains, it is still a drop in the bucket for him to break through to the middle stage of the Void Refinement Realm.
