After the time travel, my cheat program disappeared.

"A short-range teleportation talisman." Donghuang Jin gritted her teeth and squeezed out the words, looking at the talisman in her hand with a headache coming on.

"Huh?" Shi Yan looked at the talisman in Donghuang Jin's hand. She had never used such a high-end item before.

After all... this kind of talisman has absolutely no advantage in front of Shi Yan.

Not only are they expensive, but they are also only for single use.

In addition, there is the issue of inaccurate teleportation locations.

It has drawbacks such as being unusable in combat.

If you force its use in battle, you are very likely to be drawn into an abnormal void space, resulting in the destruction of the talisman and your death.

Compared to Yunshang's jade ring.

In Shi Yan's eyes, this talisman had nothing to do with anything except its flaws.

The only downside to going to Yinghua City to find Yunshang might be that it uses a lot of water.

"How far did you teleport? Can you tell me roughly where you were teleported to?" Shi Yan asked.

"For ease of use, these short-range teleportation talismans don't have a pre-set destination," Donghuang Jin simply shook his head. "Generally speaking, the teleportation distance and direction of these talismans are determined by the user on the spot."

"Really..." Donghuang Jin cried out in near anguish.

"Didn't the Sect Master clearly forbid providing Ah Li with such things?"

"Where did she get it from?"

"Short-range teleportation...isn't that very dangerous?" Shi Yan immediately imagined the scene where the girl would be teleported directly to a wall or a small hill if the teleportation location was not suitable.

Of course... it's definitely not some weird or strange development like "walls" or anything like that.

Shi Yan was worried about an even more dangerous development.

For example, a girl's flesh gets stuck in some kind of barrier or special wall, and is then squeezed into a horrific state.

“Yes…” Donghuang Jin nodded in agreement.

That's why inviting Donghuang Li back to Taiyi Sect is like inviting a little ancestor. "A similar thing happened before when she was in Taiyi Sect."

“When Ah Li finished using the short-range teleportation, she did not use her protective aura.”

"We also misjudged the teleportation distance."

"As a result, it got stuck on the barrier of the Taiyi Sect."

"My upper body and legs below the knees are outside the barrier, but the rest of my body is stuck inside." Donghuang Jin looked both amused and terrified. "If it weren't for the Celestial Feather Robe that the Ancestor gave A-Li..."

"Ah Li might be cut open by the barrier on the spot."

"Moreover... the place she chose to teleport to was a place that basically no one could go."

"When we found her, she had been hanging there all alone for half a day."

Teacher Yan nodded his little head.

Just as she thought, short-range teleportation is inherently quite dangerous.

Compared to short-range teleportation talismans, the shrinking-the-ground talisman is more popular.

That's how it is in the game.

Short-range teleportation talismans have a subtle 'failure probability'.

You may experience strange negative effects such as a 25% reduction in your maximum health.

However, compared to the Shrinking Earth Talisman, the Short-Range Teleportation Talisman has obvious advantages. It's much more useful for situations like 'escape rooms'.

Wait a minute... No, that's not right.

Shi Yan suddenly sensed that something was amiss.

Donghuang Jin said... how did Donghuang Li get hung on the barrier?

No, no, I can't go overboard with this, it's just too ridiculous.

Shi Yan could even imagine the look of utter despair on Donghuang Li's face at that moment.

Well... Shi Yan regrets that he couldn't get to the scene immediately and laugh at them.

I really don't know how the person who saved Donghuang Li managed to hold back their laughter.

If you laugh in front of Donghuang Li... it will not only cause the girl to suffer social death on the spot, but she will also definitely remember it.

Just thinking about being targeted by Donghuang Li's troublemaking nature makes Shi Yan feel terrible.

"Is there a way to track it?" she asked Donghuang Jin.

The woman simply shook her head.

“However, she should still be in Le’an City.” Donghuang Jin looked at Shi Yan, and the woman put her hands together and bowed to Shi Yan. “But... I’m afraid we’ll have to trouble you, Sister Shi Yan, until we find A-Li.”

"Oh..." Shi Yan nodded, then suddenly realized something seemed off, "Huh!??"

The 'trouble' mentioned by Donghuang Jin seems to be more than just a humble expression.

She genuinely wanted to 'make trouble' for herself.

"I will withdraw most of the elders and disciples stationed at the inn shortly," Donghuang Jin said to Shi Yan. "Then... I will disguise myself and follow you."

“As a reward—” The woman raised her right hand, revealing a storage ring in her palm.

"Huh!??" What are you doing following me?

Shi Yan was stunned. This woman... could she still be thinking about taking off his shoes and socks?

She pushed the woman's ring away.

Actually, Shi Yan wasn't that interested in snow crystal ore.

After obtaining it, aside from exchanging it for some spirit stones, it will most likely be sent by Shi Yan to Frost Rainbow Valley for Jun Qianrou.

If Donghuang Jin really needs a breakthrough.

Just like Elder Lu Renyi of the Qinglian Sword Sect, he would die if he didn't break through.

Shi Yan wouldn't mind taking off her shoes and socks to show her her feet.

Although Shi Yan felt that it was useless.

It would be better to use the [Snow Cold Technique] to promote her myself.

Donghuang Jin sighed.

“Ah Li won’t go far.” She looked at Shi Yan. “It’s obvious… she’s very interested in you.”

"As long as I stay by Shiyan's side, I believe I will be able to wait for A-Li."

Shi Yan suddenly felt a little awkward.

Donghuang Jin noticed Shi Yan's embarrassment.

“Sister Shiyan, there’s nothing to be ashamed of or worried about.” Donghuang Jin suddenly hesitated. “Because of what happened back then…”

"Our ancestors were much more tolerant of these things than our predecessors."

"In addition to Ah Li... Miss Li can also keep the bloodline of the Eastern Emperor."

It would have been better if Donghuang Jin hadn't brought this up, because it gave Shi Yan a headache.

Your Ah Li only became interested in you because her older sister influenced her.

Donghuang Li was alright to him; at least the harm wasn't too severe.

As for Donghuang Li... her affection level is at its maximum, a level of intimacy that lasts until death.

There was no way for me to escape.

Shi Yan could only respond with a forced smile.

She looked at Donghuang Jin, preparing to change the subject, "By the way..."

"Please speak, Sister Shiyan—" Donghuang Jin maintained her dignified demeanor throughout, her expression remaining unchanged.

"Why was Sister Jin in such a hurry to bring A-Li back to the Taiyi Sect?"

"Inheritance?"

"Or something else?"

Donghuang Jin's expression turned serious at the mention of this.

She glanced around.

Then he took out a compass from his storage ring and erected a barrier to isolate the world.

Shi Yan's eyebrows twitched.

Your Taiyi Sect has so many good things.

This is another treasure that is almost at the level of a celestial artifact.

Donghuang Jin took a deep breath, as if deep in thought, and then... the woman said in an almost heavy voice, "Because—"

"Someone wants Ah Li dead."

Part 296 The most dangerous place is also the safest [Second Update 2K]

Does someone want Donghuang Li dead?

To be honest... Shi Yan wasn't very surprised.

No matter what, the Taiyi Sect is one of the most famous sects in the Nine Provinces and Ten Regions.

Shi Yan still felt that it was quite normal for there to be some infighting within the sect.

The question is, who that person is.

"Does Sister Jin know who wants A-Li dead?" Shi Yan asked Donghuang Jin, who simply shook her head.

"If I had known... I wouldn't have been in such a rush to bring her back."

The teacher nodded gently.

Then I started to think.
