Cultivating Immortality: Beginning with Blessings from the Immortals

At this moment, Wei Xueqing, dressed in a purple dress, exuded a completely different aura.

The transformation from her original pure and gentle appearance to her current alluring and seductive charm gave Chen Yi a sense of unreality.

Zhou Song's wife and the two of them served tea and pastries to everyone.

Chen Yi secretly watched Wei Xueqing and noticed that she didn't show any change in expression when she passed by him, as if she didn't recognize him.

He secretly sensed the other person's aura, and apart from the drastic change in temperament, he was certain that the other person was Wei Xueqing.

Moreover, a strange aura seemed to emanate from his body, which Chen Yi felt was the opposite of the aura of the spirit insects.

If it weren't for the blessing from the Insect God, he wouldn't have been able to notice the other party's unusual behavior.

Chen Yi turned to look at Wu Yifeng, Ruan Yiqiu, and the others, but none of them noticed anything unusual.

He frowned slightly and secretly transmitted his voice to Wu Yifeng:

"Senior brother, something's not right."

Wu Yifeng, who was drinking tea, paused and turned to look at Chen Yi.

Chen Yi was drinking tea with his cup in hand, and continued to transmit his voice as usual:

"Senior brother, don't give yourself away yet."

"I wonder if you still remember Wei Wufeng, my good friend..."

Chen Yi truthfully recounted the matter between Wei Wufeng and Wei Xueqing, and Wu Yifeng's expression changed slightly upon hearing this.

"Junior brother, are you telling the truth? I didn't detect any unusual aura," Wu Yifeng transmitted his voice.

At this moment, Zhou Song began to introduce his wife, son, and Wei Xueqing to everyone.

Chen Yi looked thoughtful. Although he didn't know what had happened to Wei Xueqing, it must be related to Wei Wufeng.

Recalling the scene in the restaurant earlier, Chen Yi realized that something was amiss.

"Senior Sister Ruan, please agree to let City Lord Zhou stay and attend his son's wedding banquet," Chen Yi transmitted his voice.

Ruan Yiqiu's expression shifted slightly upon hearing this, but she did not show any unusual reaction. Although she did not know what Chen Yi intended to do, she accepted Zhou Song's enthusiastic invitation.

"Alright! Esteemed immortals, there are still many vacant courtyards in the City Lord's Mansion. I will arrange them for you right away," Zhou Song said with a smile.

Ruan Yiqiu nodded slightly and said:

"Then I'll have to trouble the city lord."

Zhou Song waved his hand repeatedly, immediately got up, and led his wife, son, and Wei Xueqing away to arrange a courtyard for everyone.

After they left, Chen Yi immediately set up a concealment array around them and then set up the Yin-Yang Wind and Thunder Array on the outer perimeter.

Ruan Yiqiu, Deng Liangyu, and the others were puzzled and immediately asked for the reason.

"Senior Sister Ruan, this matter is related to my old friend Wei Wufeng," Chen Yi said slowly.

Upon hearing this, Deng Liangyu looked surprised and immediately realized what was happening.

Chen Yi sighed and explained the whole story to everyone. Ruan Yiqiu frowned slightly, not expecting the matter to be so complicated.

"Junior Brother Chen, this matter should not be underestimated."

"Cultivators cannot participate in any matters of the secular dynasty; the other party clearly has ulterior motives," Ruan Yiqiu said in a deep voice.

Deng Liangyu, standing nearby, chimed in:

"If Wei Wufeng was possessed by the Golden Light Master, then why has Wei Xueqing also become like this?"

Chen Yi looked thoughtful. A cultivator only has one chance to possess another body; they cannot possess a body a second time.

If Wei Wufeng was possessed by Jin Guang Shangren, Wei Xueqing might have been manipulated by him and become a puppet.

"Senior Sister Ruan, Miss Deng, how about we conduct a secret investigation tonight?" Chen Yi asked.

Ruan Yiqiu, Deng Liangyu, Wu Yifeng, and others readily agreed.

Before his death, Jin Guang Shangren was at the Pseudo-Core Formation stage. Even if he successfully possessed another body, he could not recover to his former strength in a short period of time.

With their current strength, they should be able to handle the opponent if they are careful.

As Chen Yi and the others discussed when to make their move, Zhou Song walked in with a broad smile. Being a mortal, he was unaware of the two arrays set up in the courtyard.

"Everyone, the courtyard has been arranged for you. Please follow me," Zhou Song said with a smile.

Chen Yi spoke first:

"Lord Zhou, please arrange a courtyard for us, with as many rooms as possible."

Zhou Song was taken aback for a moment, but he immediately agreed.

He immediately led Ruan Yiqiu and the others to a large courtyard, pushed open the door, and invited them inside.

Ruan Yiqiu turned her head and gave Zhou Song and the others a few instructions, telling them to focus on their cultivation and not to disturb her unless it was something important.

Zhou Song nodded repeatedly and immediately left with a respectful expression.

Chen Yi and Wu Yifeng immediately inspected the entire courtyard carefully. After confirming that there were no problems, they set up a concealment formation and a Yin-Yang Wind and Thunder Formation, and then entered the room with the others.

The group agreed to act at 9 PM that evening and returned to their rooms to meditate and regulate their breathing.

Chen Yi and Wu Yifeng were in the same room.

Chen Yi recalled his past with Wei Wufeng and Wei Xueqing, never expecting that things would have changed so much by the time they met again.

A simple treasure hunt completely changed their destinies.

Seeing Chen Yi's dejected expression, Wu Yifeng took out a gourd from his storage bag and handed it to him, saying:

"Junior brother, this is my treasured immortal wine. Please have a sip!"

Chen Yi forced a smile, took the gourd of wine, and took a big gulp.

The sweet and refreshing taste exploded in his mouth, giving him a jolt of energy.

Chen Yi secretly resolved to investigate this matter thoroughly, no matter what.

He drank the strong liquor in the gourd in one gulp, then lay down on the bed and closed his eyes to rest.

Seeing this, Wu Yifeng offered a few words of comfort before sitting down on the bed to meditate and regulate his breathing.

Time flew by, and night enveloped the entire city of Huangyang.

Chen Yi pushed open the door and came into the courtyard, where Wu Yifeng, Ruan Yiqiu, and others also appeared.

"Junior Brother Chen, let's begin our operation," Ruan Yiqiu said.

Chen Yi nodded slightly and with a single gesture, put away the array plate and array flags.

He handed the concealment tokens to everyone, and miniature concealment arrays enveloped their bodies. These concealment tokens were gifts from Sun Huo.

However, these concealment tokens have a limited number of uses; they will lose their effectiveness after being activated a few times.

Chen Yi and the others slipped away from the courtyard and began searching for Wei Xueqing within the City Lord's Mansion.

After secretly investigating, they soon arrived at the courtyard of Zhou Qian, the son of the city lord.

Although it is now the hour of Hai (9-11 PM), the courtyard and rooms are still brightly lit.

Chen Yi, Wu Yifeng, and the others quietly landed in the courtyard.

Voices could be heard coming from inside the room; they were Zhou Qian and Wei Xueqing.

Chen Yi, Wu Yifeng, Ruan Yiqiu, and the others exchanged glances, preparing to step forward and investigate.

At that moment, Chen Yi suddenly sensed something was amiss.

He looked up abruptly and found that the night sky seemed to writhe as if it were alive.

The next moment, black scales silently fell.

Chen Yi felt a chill and immediately reminded everyone to activate their shields.

Everyone looked surprised as they noticed the strange thing in mid-air.

Without hesitation, Chen Yi activated the jade pendant magic artifact, and a seven-colored shield gently protected him.

He looked intently into the air and discovered that many completely black moths had quietly appeared there.

If it weren't for the perception bestowed by the Insect God, Chen Yi wouldn't have been able to discover these black moths.

Wu Yifeng and Deng Liangyu appeared in front of Chen Yi at the same time and protected him.

Ruan Yiqiu's expression was icy, and she immediately attacked the black moth in mid-air.
