I have the best bloodline

Su Yan's eyes widened at the sight. Not believing it, she went to pick up the other musical instruments that were placed on the spot, but just like when she tried to pick up the panpipes, she couldn't get her hands on them.

The only thing Su Yan could lift was the erhu, also known as the xiqin, which was placed in the corner. The erhu had the character "Ze" engraved on the side of its soundbox, so it was likely that the xiqin Su Yan was carrying belonged to Bai Ze.

"Turtle."

Su Yan held the erhu. Although he wasn't very skilled, he knew a little about how to play it. He subconsciously played a piece called "Erquan Yingyue" (Moon Reflected in the Second Spring), and exclaimed in surprise:

"The Red Cloud Ancestor's attack on the Wilderness Palace was probably aimed at these musical instruments."

Su Yan put the erhu into his storage ring and quickly ran towards the small stone building. The door was obviously something Su Yan couldn't open, but he climbed to the open window on the third floor and went straight into the room.

There was no alchemy room or cultivation room where cultivators stored pills inside. It was just a residential building. The largest main room was occupied by women, because Su Yan saw several undergarments in the wardrobe.

"boom"

Just as Su Yan was about to pull out the storage box at the bottom of the wardrobe, a loud noise suddenly came from outside the stone building, accompanied by a feeling of the earth shaking.

Su Yan yanked open the storage box, hurriedly grabbed a large stack of coarse paper, stuffed it into his storage ring, and without even reading the contents, quickly returned to the third floor, climbed out of the living room window, and looked toward the source of the loud noise.

As Su Yan looked up, he saw a faint light appear above the Wilderness Palace. On the array outside the dojo lay a female cultivator with a slightly flushed face and dazed eyes, seemingly drunk. She appeared to have crashed into the Wilderness Palace's protective barrier and was unable to get up.

"Why is it so small? Why is Bai Ze getting smaller and smaller? The horns on its forehead are gone. Did that old man Yan Di cut them off to nourish his kidneys?"

"Hahaha, I knew it! Those horns on Bai Ze's forehead are especially good for kidney health and male virility. I told you not to flaunt them when you're out and about. Now they've finally been cut off, haven't they?"

The female cultivator who crashed into the barrier had a dazed look in her eyes. She was clearly so drunk that she couldn't tell which way was which. In her eyes, Su Yan had turned into a tangled mess, and his figure seemed to be changing like a phantom.

After muttering to herself while lying on the barrier, the female cultivator managed to stand on the hemispherical barrier. She hadn't even taken two steps when the barrier tilted, causing her to lose her balance and fall to the ground, tumbling down into the forest of withered corpses.

"???"

Upon seeing this, Su Yan's face showed great shock. He quickly dove out and caught the female cultivator who was rolling down from the barrier in mid-air.

The Plains of Corpses are connected to the Red Cloud Ancestor. If large-scale damage occurs, the Red Cloud Ancestor, who is far away in Gu She City, will be able to sense the abnormality.

Su Yan couldn't even imagine how many withered corpses would be blown away by the impact of a cultivator weighing over a hundred pounds falling straight to the ground from a height of several hundred meters.

"How much did you drink?!"

He wrapped his arms around the female cultivator. The pungent smell of alcohol filled Su Yan's nostrils. With each breath, his head began to spin slightly. Just smelling the alcohol on the female cultivator made Su Yan feel drunk.

"who are you?"

The woman who landed in Su Yan's arms immediately realized, because of the close proximity, that the little fox in front of her did not seem to be the Bai Ze she knew. He only exuded the aura of Bai Ze, but was not Bai Ze himself.

The woman lay in Su Yan's arms, her eyelids half-closed, her eyes hazy as she reached out her hands to pinch and pull at Su Yan's unfamiliar cheeks, as if she had some dissatisfaction.

Ruonv was naturally dissatisfied that she didn't see her friend and instead, due to drunkenness, she slipped and fell from the starry sky, crashing onto her own roof.

"How much did you drink?"

Su Yan used all his strength to carry the female cultivator out of the withered forest and brought her to the front of the Wilderness Palace. Finally, he could no longer hold on and felt dizzy. He kicked the steps and threw Ruonv onto the steps.

This female cultivator was no ordinary person. The smell of alcohol she exhaled hit Su Yan's cheek, and Su Yan was already unable to hold on and fell into a drunken state. His internal magic power was also somewhat out of control due to the massive intake of spiritual energy.

What she was drinking was probably not spirit wine, but rather celestial brew from the immortal realm.

Even the strongest spiritual wine in the cultivation world, Su Yan could only drink a small cup before getting drunk, but for the woman, just the residual breath of the wine was enough to make her drunk.

Left with no other choice, Su Yan could only open his palm and let the activated sacrificial knife hilt emerge from his storage ring, its black and red veins piercing his palm, using its special ability to absorb the excess spiritual power within his body.

"How much did you drink? How would I know how much? I've just been drinking all this time. Do you want some?"

Ruonv slumped on the steps, her elbows resting on them, her shapely breasts bulging high in front of her as if to push open her collar.

As Ruonv spoke, she took out a snail-shaped wine pot filled with wine from the void and handed it to Su Yan.

Su Yan glanced at the wine pot pressed against his cheek and was about to speak when he inhaled the smell of alcohol and his whole body stiffened. His little fox form manifested, with his limbs and tail stiffening, and he fainted.

"what?"

Ruonv let out a questioning sound, looking at the little white fox whose limbs were stiff and outstretched, and whose tail was stiffly extended parallel to its back, completely unconscious:

"He passed out before he even drank any; how can the Bai Ze descendant have such a poor alcohol tolerance?"

Ruonv swayed as she propped herself up, pinched the stiff fox's mouth shut, turned her head to the side, took a deep breath to expel all the alcohol from her mouth, then took the stiff and unconscious Su Yan in front of her, placed her mouth on the circle formed by her thumb and forefinger, and blew into the fox's mouth nestled on the other side of her palm.

Ruonv exhaled a breath through her palm, and Su Yan's body immediately softened, the little fox's body swaying with the wind.

Seeing that Su Yan, who had been drunk to the point of death, had come back to life, Ruonv put Su Yan aside and took a swig from the wine pot.

The special blend of liquor that Ruonv drinks is a divine brew made by repeatedly compressing and liquefying celestial energy.

Even immortals would fall into eternal slumber after just one sip, but Su Yan, with his cultivation level, didn't fall into eternal slumber after just one sniff. This was entirely thanks to the several tubes inserted into his palm and the sacrificial knife hidden in his storage ring, which helped to absorb the explosive aroma of the wine, which was enough to burn his brain.

"Well"

After an unknown amount of time, Su Yan, who had been lying drunk on the steps, slowly woke up, looking completely bewildered. After glancing around, she immediately jumped up:

"Oh no! How long have I been drunk?!"

"Huh? About three or four days? Anyway, I saw Xihe chasing her son and hitting him three times." Ruonv climbed up the steps with a confused look on her face, looked at the little white fox who was jumping up and down, covering her head, and had an expression of utter disbelief, and casually said a word.

Xihe is one of the supreme beings residing in the celestial realm, inside the sun and the moon.

The golden crow that hangs in the sky now is one of the offspring of Xihe.

Xihe chases after her cub a few times, usually as the Holy Spirits tease each other about the rising and setting of the sun and moon.

After all, Jinwu is really mischievous and likes to play pranks.

"It's ruined."

Upon hearing this, Su Yan was immediately startled and quickly ran up the steps to the gate of the Wilderness Palace. He started pushing from the inside to close one of the bronze doors, then went around to the other side and dragged both doors to close them.

What are you doing?

Ruonv rested her arms on the steps, her head tilted back, watching Su Yan busy himself there.

"You'd better get out of here quickly! If you don't run now, you won't be able to escape when Ancestor Hongyun comes back."

Su Yan closed all the doors, and the little fox stood up upright, its slightly comical pigeon-toed stance as it hopped down the steps, keeping a slight distance from the female cultivator, afraid that the alcohol fumes from her breath might make it faint again.

"Ancestor Hongyun?" Ruonv muttered to herself, pondering who Ancestor Hongyun was.

"Is the Red Cloud Ancestor you're talking about the guy who wears a long red robe without sashes or a bodice, with two lumps swaying inside, and... well, it looks like he has red ice shards growing on his eyebrows and below?"

Ruonv thought for a moment: "About three zhang tall?"

"Yes! Do you know him, senior?"

"I don't recognize him!"

"?"

Su Yan slowly typed a question mark, feeling a little puzzled by the contradictory words of the drunkard in front of him.

You don't know her. How do you know that she described her clothes, height, body shape, and even the color of her hair so clearly when she slaughtered Gushe City?

"etc."

Su Yan shifted his gaze from the drunkard to the sky above the edge of the Corpse Plain, where a large red cloud was drifting towards the Wilderness Palace.

The Crimson Cloud Ancestor floated at the front of the blood cloud, spreading his arms to look at himself and the drunkard beside him.

Su Yan looked dazed. Without thinking, he bit the drunkard's collar and dragged him up the steps to the gate of the Wilderness Palace. He kicked the gate open with his fox paw, dragged the drunkard into the Wilderness Palace, and then closed the bronze gate.

"what!?"

Upon seeing this, Old Ancestor Hongyun's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets, his face showing an expression of utter disbelief.

The barrier of the Wilderness Palace and the bronze gate, which was said to be invincible below the level of gods, were kicked open.

what?

Ah!

Chapter 548 Nine Netherworld Maiden

"what!?"

Seeing that Su Yan had successfully passed through the barrier, the Old Ancestor Hongyun kicked open the purple copper gate with his back foot and then smoothly closed it with his other hand. The Old Ancestor Hongyun couldn't help but let out a surprised exclamation.

The Red Cloud Ancestor knew how strong the restrictions on the Wilderness Palace were, and the materials used to forge the purple copper gate. She understood very well that beings below the level of gods could not open the restrictions and gate of the Wilderness Palace no matter what.

But how come that Nascent Soul fox and that drunken woman who was nearly dead from alcohol could freely enter and exit the Wilderness Palace, which I had spent hundreds of years trying to access but failed?

"fox!"

With bloodshot eyes, Ancestor Hongyun unleashed a furious attack, sending a torrent of blood-red ice crystals crashing directly into the restrictions of the Wilderness Palace.

A deafening explosion rang out as crimson ice crystals slammed into the barrier. No matter how fierce the Red Cloud Ancestor's attacks were, they could not shake it in the slightest. A large number of red ice crystals crashed into the barrier and shattered into a sky full of red ice crystal dust that scattered across the withered corpse plain.

"I'll give you three incense sticks' worth of time. If you don't tell me how to open the barrier, I'll go in and pluck every single hair from your diaper!" Driven by jealousy, the Red Cloud Ancestor launched a futile barrage of attacks on the Wilderness Palace's barrier to slightly quell his anger and jealousy before threatening it.

The nearly ten-meter-tall Hongyun Ancestor looked fiercely at Su Yan, who was perched on the wall.

After speaking, Ancestor Hongyun flicked his blood-red robe and turned away, returning to the sky. Blood-red clouds drifted by, and blood-red rain fell gently from the sky onto the plain.

A foul, bloody stench, mixed with the greasy, oily smell, gradually spread.

The withered corpses that were kneeling on the ground gradually regained their vitality under the blood-red rain. They slowly got up from the muddy ground and began to walk according to a certain pattern, their hands forming hand seals.

"Senior, come and take a look. Do you know what kind of bewitching spell that witch is casting?"

Su Yan couldn't understand Hong Yun's plan, but she could tell that she was probably setting up an array, preparing to break the restrictions outside the Wilderness Palace and enter the palace.
