The blood slowly seeping from under the ring... meant that Tianli had already set its sights on Shiyan.

Moreover, this time... the immortal who fell from the heavens to the mortal world would definitely not mistake anyone.

The master's words have been locked in by the threads of heavenly principles.

Even though she knew it would be futile, the tavern owner still tried to grab Shi Yan's hand and take the ring off his finger.

But... the ring seemed to have grown into Shi Yan's flesh and blood.

Even if a finger is severed, it may not be possible to remove it.

"You know it's no use..." Slowly pulling his hand away from the tavern owner's, Shi Yan clenched his fist.

The tavern proprietress remained almost dazed, holding Shi Yan's hands in a daze, her expression more unpleasant than ever before.

Even if Yunmeng had stormed the tavern and demanded her life in exchange, the tavern owner wouldn't have looked this grim.

But a teacher's words are not enough—

Simply relying on a teacher's words is not enough.

"Relax..." Shi Yan grabbed the tavern owner's hand with his other hand, wanting to comfort her.

"Didn't you say..."

"You have monopolized the mortal world for a thousand years. Since the war between immortals and demons a thousand years ago, there have been no cultivators in the mortal world above the Enlightenment Realm."

"No one ascends—"

"Even if Heaven wanted to send immortals down to the mortal world to kill me, wouldn't it have no soldiers to use?"

Shi Yan smiled at the tavern owner.

“No…” The tavern owner shook her head gently. “Actually, after the war between immortals and demons, there was still one person in the mortal world who successfully ascended to immortality.”

Shi Yan blinked.

She thought of something.

"The founder of the Azure Lotus Sword Sect—"

“That fool who ultimately followed the Fairy of Yaotai…” The tavern owner hesitated, struggling to find the right words, “She still managed to ascend to heaven.”

As expected, just as his teacher predicted.

However, Shi Yan was somewhat surprised by the way the tavern owner described the founder of the Azure Lotus Sword Sect.

"Master..." The tavern owner looked at Shi Yan, "Back then, someone told me about the idea of ​​locking away the mortal world—"

"After that..."

“She told me.”

"If the mortal world is truly and completely sealed off, leaving Heavenly Justice with no soldiers to command..."

"Then it's hard to guarantee that Tianli won't do anything else dangerous."

"So in the end, we chose to let one person ascend to heaven."

"Willing to become a soldier in the hands of justice."

Shi Yan knew that the person the tavern owner was talking about must be Loulan.

As for how they knew that the vast "Immortal Realm" was completely empty and devoid of any immortals before the founder of the Azure Lotus Sword Sect ascended to immortality.

It was probably... told to Loulan by the Fairy of Yaotai.

After all, the relationship between these two could almost be described as one of love and hate, and Loulan ultimately died "willingly" under the sword of the Fairy of Yaotai.

Even... the ancient zither that accompanied the Lord of Loulan back then.

It still lies quietly in the cabinet of Yinghua City, accompanying Hua Xiangrong.

“But—” The tavern owner frowned slightly.

"I never expected that, even in this situation..."

"In the end, the principles of Heaven were created in the mortal world through the interaction of Heaven and Earth."

"Yunmeng Fate?" Shi Yan looked at the tavern proprietress.

The tavern owner nodded gently.

"Yunmeng's destiny is the embodiment of the laws of nature."

"Although--"

"She's a bit rebellious and disobedient."

"But when it really comes down to it, she will show no mercy when she comes to you."

"So you have to be careful, don't think about how to kidnap a pretty girl just because you see her."

Shi Yan stared wide-eyed, looking at him with a questioning expression that said, "I look exactly like that kind of lecher."

The tavern owner had a "aren't you one?" look on her face.

The atmosphere in the tavern suddenly became somewhat awkward.

Finally, Shi Yan broke the awkward silence, saying, "Didn't you send someone up as well?"

"Why did Heaven have to create a Yunmeng Fate?"

Upon hearing Shi Yan's words, the tavern owner's expression gradually became somewhat strange. "Guess why the person sent up was Qin Ge?"

"Qin Ge?" Shi Yan didn't think much about why the person sent up was the founder of the Qinglian Sword Sect, but was thinking about the name of the girl who sent it up.

Is this the name of the immortal who is about to come and hunt me down?

I noted down what the teacher said.

Imagine it—

"The last person you entrusted with an important task was someone with hidden face blindness."

"After you cast her down to earth, make the first person she encounters her the one she is meant to kill."

"result……"

"Not only did she fail to kill the target, but she also unexpectedly became her best friend."

"even……"

"It can be said that the fact that the target was able to successfully ascend to immortality and transcend the mortal world was all thanks to that love-obsessed person you sent out."

"but--"

"She ultimately accomplished your task..."

Looking at the tavern owner, Shi Yan could roughly guess that the face-blind person she mentioned was the Fairy of Yaotai from a thousand years ago.

Was Loulan the first person the Fairy of Yaotai encountered after falling into the mortal world?

As a result, they did not recognize Loulan.

Two people who were both alone in the world became close friends who confided in each other.

It's really quite a twist of fate.

Tianli is really unlucky.

Although... the most unlucky person should be the Fairy of Yaotai.

"And then—" the tavern owner's expression grew increasingly strange, ""Next... when the second target you were supposed to kill appeared right under your nose..."

"The only person you can use is..." the tavern owner pondered, thinking of the prototype, "...Little Pixiu."

What would you think?

Shi Yan's eye twitched.

Although the little Pixiu is very powerful and obedient to me.

But... if I were to ask the little Pixiu, who's good for nothing but eating, to do something important, I'd better forget about it.

"I might as well do it myself."

After thinking for a moment, Shi Yan added, "This matter really cannot be blamed on the laws of nature."

The tavern owner shrugged, giving her an "that's just how it is" look.

After careful consideration, Shi Yan realized that the principles of Heaven were truly tragic.

After all... according to the tavern owner, the third agent of justice also seems to have a naturally rebellious nature.

So what's there to worry about?

Shi Yan grasped the tavern owner's hand, trying to comfort her, "The next person to fall from the mortal world to hunt you down is... Qin Ge, right?"

"If she has the personality of a little Pixiu."

"See, I can easily persuade her."

"Persuade?" The tavern owner raised an eyebrow.

"Cough cough..." Shi Yan coughed, trying to ease the atmosphere.

There's no need to bring this kind of thing into the open.

Even the fairy of Yaotai was persuaded by Loulan back then, so she believed that she would definitely not fail.

After all, compared to the solitary Loulan, he still had the advantage of having a favorable reputation.

If Qin Ge is a disciple of the Fairy of Yaotai, then... she must have a very close relationship with Hua Xiangrong.

She had already maxed out Hua Xiangrong's favorability.

The initial favorability rating shouldn't be low.

Furthermore... judging from this surname, she is Qin Suhuai's ancestor.

Qin Suhuai herself also garnered a lot of goodwill.

The entire Qinglian Sword Sect, even the little Pixiu... all had a high degree of favorability towards him.

He believed that his "Ninety-Nine Hands of Spring Rejuvenation" and "Snow Cold Skill" would surely win people over with virtue.

"It's not that simple." The tavern owner's expression didn't seem as calm as Shi Yan's.
