The sect asked me to marry, and I cultivated to the pinnacle of martial arts!

Chapter 431 Returning to the Northern Territory, preparing to head to the Demon Saint State again, and using the feedback from the stone tablet to break through to the Earth Realm!
Hearing Lu Ye's words, Sang Xiyao pondered for a moment and said, "It's not impossible, but each time a nine-headed worm grows, it requires a huge amount of resources."

"Moreover, although the nine-headed worm has some intelligence, it should not be enough to support it in making such a human-like split-up action to conserve its energy."

Does the Void Nine-Headed Insect itself lack this intelligence...?

Lu Ye fell into deep thought.

That is, if this situation really occurs, it means that the Void Nine-Headed Worm... is being raised by someone?
Who's so heartless as to keep this thing?

After bidding farewell to Sang Xiyao, Lu Ye also left the area.

Xiao Qingyin followed behind him.

Having experienced the opportunity in the Yunyao Secret Realm, Xiao Qingyin's gains were far less than Lu Ye's, but she had already reached the mid-stage of the ninth level of Martial Arts Grandmaster.

"Do you suspect that what we encountered in the white mist before might be this Void Nine-Headed Worm?" Xiao Qingyin asked.

Lu Ye looked at Xiao Qingyin with some surprise, not expecting that she could actually see what he was thinking.

Lu Ye didn't hide anything and nodded.

"I do have this suspicion, and I even suspect that the nine-headed worm they saw is very likely the same one we encountered in the valley before."

Xiao Qingyin was startled: "You mean, it escaped and is no longer there?!"

Lu Ye nodded: "What are your plans next?"

Upon hearing this, a faint hint of anticipation flashed in Xiao Qingyin's eyes.

To be honest, she didn't really know what she was going to do next.

In her original life plan, she never intended to resign from her position as sect leader.

Now that she's made this decision halfway through, she hasn't really thought about the consequences carefully, or perhaps she doesn't want to.

Originally, Xiao Qingyin's plan was to travel around Xuanzhou.

After exploring most of Xuanzhou, they moved on to other places.

But she ran into Lu Ye on the way, which caused Xiao Qingyin's thoughts to suddenly change.

"Can I... say I don't know?" Xiao Qingyin said softly.

Lu Ye: “?”

do not know?
Xiao Qingyin's words made Lu Ye feel a little uneasy.

If this had happened before, when she was still the sect leader of the Crimson Cloud Sect, would she have said something like that?

"Where do you plan to go next?" Xiao Qingyin asked.

After thinking for a moment, Lu Ye said, "I might go to the Black Tide Forbidden Area next. I'm a little curious about that place."

Black Tide Forbidden Zone...

Upon hearing this, Xiao Qingyin was startled. She hadn't expected that Lu Ye was planning to go to the Black Tide Forbidden Land.

However, considering his current strength, as long as he doesn't get too close to the Black Tide River in the Black Tide Forbidden Land, he is unlikely to be in much danger.

Nodding, Xiao Qingyin said, "I understand... I will probably continue to travel around Xuanzhou for a while."

"Then... I'm leaving?" Xiao Qingyin asked after a pause.

Lu Ye nodded: "Have a safe journey."

A moment later, Xiao Qingyin greeted Lu Ye with a smile, sighed softly in her heart, and left the place.

Lu Ye stood there for a moment, then shook his head.

He could tell that Xiao Qingyin had been somewhat tempted when she asked him what his plans were for the future.

At that time, if Lu Ye had casually invited her to join him on the next mission so that she would have company, she would most likely not have refused.

But in the end, Lu Ye didn't bring it up.

Xiao Qingyin was also very clever and didn't bring up the matter.

After all, Lu Ye didn't say it explicitly, which meant he either didn't want to or it was inconvenient for him to say so. So, if Xiao Qingyin brought it up herself and was rejected, she would lose face.

There was a rare and remarkable understanding between the two.

Watching Xiao Qingyin's departing figure, Lu Ye's eyes gradually became thoughtful.

Lu Ye already had a clear plan for what was to come.

First, return to the Northern Territory to meet a few people, then head from the Northern Territory to the Demon Saint State to continue lighting up the second Seven Star Stone Tablet.

If one returns from the Demon Saint State without relying on the stone tablet to reach the Earth Realm, then one should find a place to cultivate in seclusion and attempt to break through to the Earth Realm.

Finally, head to the crevice in the valley, use the teleportation array to enter the valley's medicinal garden and take a look.

Is the situation really as I think?

According to Sang Xiyao, a Void Worm has the strength of a Grandmaster in the Mortal Realm.

If I advance to the Earth Rank, even if I encounter a two-headed monster, I can at least run away if I can't beat it.

If it were to successfully emerge from that valley, it would undoubtedly wreak havoc in the North.

The next moment, Lu Ye's figure also disappeared from the spot.

Meanwhile, in the Demon Saint State.

It has been some time since the last time the princess of the Tianlang clan in the Demon Saint State was tied up.

During this period, the Sirius Clan's territory was searched every day, consuming a lot of demonic power and resources, but nothing was found.

Because nothing was found, and a month passed in the blink of an eye.

At each checkpoint, some people started slacking off.

At a checkpoint in the territory of the Sirius Clan, two werewolves guarding the pass are chatting.

"Do you think that daring human might have already been released by another checkpoint? That's why we've been investigating for so long without any progress."

"Hey, you know what, you really think it's possible! It must be an oversight by someone in another position who let that human escape."

Just then, Princess Qin Qingqing of the Sirius Clan, who happened to be patrolling the area, frowned and shouted, "What are you two whispering about?!"

Upon hearing the voice of the Sirius princess, the two immediately stood at attention.

Qin Qingqing walked over, frowning, and said, "What were you talking about just now? That human... got away?!"

Sensing a dangerous aura rising from the princess, the two guards immediately knelt down.

"Princess...we were just joking!"

"Yes, Princess, our territory is so heavily guarded that if he passes through it... even with eight wings he couldn't fly out!"

Qin Qingqing gritted her teeth and said, "Guard the area properly for this princess! If I find out you're slacking off..."

After reprimanding her subordinates, Qin Qingqing turned and left.

However, in Qin Qingqing's heart, there was a faint suspicion that the damned human had already left.

After all, the Demon Saint State is very large. If the first check misses the person, they might get away.

Subsequently, if others are willing to go to great lengths, they can easily bypass the territory of other demon races.

Qin Qingqing couldn't help but touch the spot where she had been whipped before, her eyes flashing with an unknown light as she gritted her teeth.

"Damn humans..."

Lu Ye did not stay in the Eastern Territory for long, as there were hardly any friendly forces there.

Most of them are in conflict, including the Tianxuan Sect and the Hidden Spirit Land, whose entrance is also located somewhere in the Eastern Territory.

Therefore, Lu Ye traversed the void and quickly returned to the Northern Territory. He then found a cave in the Northern Territory, intending to use it as a temporary seclusion location.
