My Demonic Cult's Holy Maiden

If you unfold a map, the Dayun Dynasty is located in the remote north. 30,000 miles further north lies an endless snowfield, devoid of any trace of human activity.

The sea is about 100,000 miles to the south.

Further south, about 20,000 li away, lies a fragmented archipelago, which is essentially an endless sea. Navigation was not advanced in this era, and 20,000 li of sea was a difficult distance to traverse.

This is not Earth. Earth is not as big as this. The circumference of Earth's equator is only over 40,000 kilometers.

Qi Yu frowned as he walked out of the secret passage, and what came into view was an endless sea.

It really is the sea!

Qi Yu couldn't help but look at Su Chengying beside him.

"The Earth Shrinking Seal, a precious Taoist treasure given to me by your grandmaster, can shorten the distance between two places!" Su Chengying said indifferently.

Qi Yu looked completely bewildered. Did such a thing even exist?

Are you sure this isn't a world of cultivation?

"Father-in-law, will martial artists become immortals in the end?" Qi Yu asked.

After thinking for a moment, Su Chengying shook his head and said, "I don't know. Even in the era of the saints seven thousand years ago, no one was able to become an immortal, so I think he probably isn't an immortal."

After thinking for a moment, Qi Yu asked, "Then are there immortals?"

This time, Su Chengying nodded in agreement.

"some!"

"Father-in-law, how can you be so sure?" Qi Yu asked in surprise.

Su Chengying turned to look at Qi Yu, a smile playing on his lips, and said, "You want to know?"

Qi Yu saw the smile on Su Chengying's lips and felt a bad premonition. He quickly shook his head.

"I don't want to know!"

Su Chengying turned around and walked towards the stone steps beside her.

"When you stand high enough, you'll be able to see further. You'll understand these things when you truly become the leader."

Qi Yu frowned. What did this mean?

Could there really be gods?

Maybe there really are gods!

True Qi, extraordinary techniques, my own inexplicable perception, and the 'Shrinking Earth Seal' that my father-in-law Su Chengying mentioned earlier—none of these can be explained by science.

Qi Yu shook his head, feeling a bit conflicted, and decided to stop thinking about it.

Following Su Chengying, we walked up the stone steps, and after about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the sound of the waves gradually subsided.

After crossing a small hill, a thatched hut came into Qi Yu's view.

Su Chengying led Qi Yu outside the thatched hut and looked through the fence at the only source of light.

"You're here? Then come in!" A strong voice came from inside the thatched hut.

Hearing this voice, Su Chengying sighed helplessly, looked at Qi Yu, and said, "That old man has a very strange temper, be careful!"

Hearing his father-in-law's solemn words, Qi Yu's heart skipped a beat.

"Is Grandpa scary?" Qi Yu asked cautiously.

Su Chengying recalled her past experience, nodded, and said seriously, "He is a very petty person. Petty old people are very scary because he takes advantage of his age and is shameless!"

Qi Yu blinked, listening to his father-in-law's words, it seemed that there were many stories between him and his father-in-law!

He led Qi Yu into the thatched hut, where an old man with gray hair sat by the window, carving a giant, coiled dragon.

The dragon was carved with great lifelike detail, and the entire wooden sculpture was forty centimeters long. However, Qi Yu's gaze did not fall on the dragon, but rather on the old man's right arm.

His right arm was empty, clearly indicating that he had lost an arm.

"Sit down!" the old man said casually as he focused on carving.

Su Chengying was quite impolite. He actually sat down, picked up the teapot, poured himself a cup of tea, and didn't even bow or greet the old man.

Qi Yu dared not be as unrestrained as Su Chengying, and bowed respectfully to the old man.

"Grandson-in-law Qi Yu greets Grandfather!"

Xu Yangyu glanced at Qi Yu, nodded, but said nothing.

Qi Yu felt a little embarrassed, and then looked to Su Chengying for help.

Su Cheng, ignoring the film and television production, continued drinking his tea.

With a worried look on his face, Qi Yu forced himself to approach Xu Yangyu.

"Grandpa, how about I help you?" Qi Yu said.

Xu Yangyu stopped what he was doing, and Su Chengying also looked at Qi Yu.

This is no ordinary carving!

"Okay, you do it!" Xu Yangyu handed the carving knife to Qi Yu, then stepped aside.

Qi Yu took the carving knife and looked at the half-finished wood carving on the table, feeling somewhat moved.

This carving can be described as a masterpiece, and it was carved entirely by hand by a one-armed old man.

Chapter 239 A Reprimand

Xu Yangyu wanted to see Qi Yu, which is why Su Chengying brought Qi Yu to this small courtyard.

Qi Yu took the carving knife, took over Xu Yangyu's task, and began carving the wooden dragon.

The carving was very successful and lifelike. When Qi Yu was learning to be a chef, he also learned carving. Although there were some differences in wood carving, they were not significant.

The wood carving was completed quickly, and Xu Yangyu nodded, very satisfied.

"For the sake of this wood carving, I won't hold it against you, a mere child, for not coming to pay your respects to me for so long!"

Hearing this, Qi Yu felt ashamed; he had wanted to come before!

But Su Yue wouldn't allow it!

"I heard Qin'er say that I will soon have a great-grandson?" Xu Yangyu asked.

Qi Yu nodded and said respectfully, "My lady is three months pregnant!"

Xu Yangyu glanced at Qi Yu, then his gaze fell on the wooden dragon, and he said calmly, "I just don't understand how a demon cultivator could fall for a poor scholar!"

"That's why I've always wanted to meet you, but you're such a busy person, it's really difficult to see you!"

Qi Yu could only lower his head and smile bitterly; there was no way to answer that!

Because Xu Yangyu was clearly being temperamental, and it seemed that he harbored a prejudice against him.

Su Chengying picked up her teacup, but instead of drinking, she kept looking at Xu Yangyu. Then, her eyes flickered as she looked at Qi Yu, and she pouted helplessly.

The old man disliked him and made things difficult for him in his youth, constantly finding excuses to torment himself.

If I hadn't broken through to the Grandmaster level, I might have actually been killed by that old guy.

When he asked to see Qi Yu, Su Chengying knew that the old man wanted to torture Qi Yu and then threaten him.

"I heard the other day that you've been getting quite close to a girl surnamed Qin?" Xu Yangyu asked casually.

The words were casual, but the underlying meaning was turbulent.

Su Chengying, Su Yue's father, hadn't even stood up for Su Yue yet, but Xu Yangyu, her maternal grandfather, had already started to question her.

"That rumor is false. My relationship with Miss Qin is completely innocent. From beginning to end, my heart has only been with my wife!" Qi Yu hurriedly defended himself.

Xu Yangyu ignored him. Having experienced so much, he naturally knew that all men were the same.

"Don't be nervous, I'm just asking. Even if you and that little girl surnamed Qin have something going on, it doesn't matter."

Xu Yangyu turned to Qi Yu and smiled, "I just want to tell you that my granddaughter is not someone anyone can bully. Do you understand what I mean?"

Qi Yu nodded with a forced smile and said, "I understand, I understand!"

I never intended to remarry!

Whether you say it or not, it doesn't really matter.

Xu Yangyu nodded, then looked at Mu Long and said, "Originally, I looked down on you because you have always been a good person, both in the past and now. In my life, the kind of person I despise the most is a good person."

"However, since you are the husband Yue'er chose, I won't say anything. But there is one thing you must remember."

"My granddaughter, Xu Yangyu's granddaughter, will only become a widow after losing her husband; there is absolutely no possibility of her being divorced or divorced. Grandson-in-law, don't say you weren't warned!"

Qi Yu was speechless; the old man was clearly threatening him!

In other words, if he divorced Su Yue, he would die.

Involuntarily, Qi Yu looked at Su Chengying, wondering if his father-in-law had also been threatened by Xu Yangyu back then.

So all these years, my father-in-law has been living in humiliation under the tyranny of my mother-in-law, Xu Shuqin, and dared not resist.

He never even took a concubine in his entire life.

A master who has attained the Dao is still afraid of his wife!

you can!

Very powerful!

Su Chengying felt uncomfortable under Qi Yu's sympathetic gaze. Was this brat gloating?

Am I being too soft-hearted?

I should have let him experience how that old man treated me back then!

……

After meeting with Xu Yangyu, Qi Yu returned to the Blood God Sect headquarters, but Su Chengying did not return. It seemed that Xu Yangyu had something to discuss with him.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Qi Yu finally saw the sacred relics of the Blood God Cult, or rather, the sacred relics of Taoism.

This is the Shrinking Earth Seal, a treasure that allows one to travel long distances regardless of distance.
