Fairy, don't try to mess with my filial piety

Green Snake's heroic eyebrows twitched, and he stood with his arms crossed, staring at Ning Xianzhi with unfriendly eyes. He didn't know why she brought this up, so he sneered:

"Are you planning to use this as a threat to tell Wuji about me? It's useless. Even if you reveal my identity, that kid won't be hostile to me.

And I also know that you are using your sister's body to deceive Wu Ji's feelings!"

Ning Xianzhi was really unhappy with the attitude of the snake demon sisters. Bai Sujin didn't know what to think. This green snake was really fierce and aggressive, and was fearless.

Although the green snake held back at the time, it still hit Chu Wuzhi pretty hard. This was said by Yun Qingying, an eyewitness.

Isn’t the Green Snake afraid that Chu Wuji is resentful?

He is close to the White Snake, not you, the Green Snake!

Bai Sujin raised him and saved his life, but the green snake did not have that, so it just had a certain relationship with Bai Sujin.

Ning Xianzhi had a lot of complaints in her heart. She took a long breath, and her bulging breasts rose and fell. She remained calm and said:

"But Qing Snake, you're not trying to be recognized by Wu Ji, right? Otherwise, why would you pretend to be dumb and be so sneaky when you meet him?"

Green Snake nodded frankly. She also disliked those complicated conversations, which were too brain-consuming. She admitted:

"I really don't want to, but it won't matter if I'm recognized. I just want to wait a few months before we can meet formally. So why did you keep me here? What do you want to talk about?

Is it just an identity reveal?"

Ning Xianzhi looked at her seriously, temporarily omitted the prelude, and said concisely:

"Don't disturb Wuji from seeking the truth and practicing here."

"...?"

This request was beyond the Green Snake's expectation. She sent Chu Wuji away just to tell her this?

The green snake thought that it would be a fight where he could concentrate on it.

Ning Xianzhi saw her puzzled expression and explained:

"I know about the White Snake Temple. Although you sisters are demons, you are also kind. You don't collect wealth, eat people, or do evil. You have protected the local area for hundreds of years. You have a good foundation.

He probably found it difficult to teach Wu Ji to practice, so he let him find his destiny alone. I will guide him in his practice!"

The green snake was silent for a while, feeling a little uncomfortable.

I was about to fight with her just now, why is it that Ning Xianzhi is trying to make peace with me now?

"I don't quite understand. You are indeed very advanced in your cultivation, so why are you so kind as to want to be Wu Ji's master and guide him in cultivation?

Even if you knew about the White Snake Temple, it has nothing to do with you, right? You are not a local there, so you have done us sisters a disservice by taking such good care of us, right?

Ning Xianzhi snorted in her heart, thinking that this green snake really knew how to save face for herself. She spoke as if she was taking care of Chu Wuji because she felt indebted for the affairs of the White Snake Temple.

Mentioning the White Snake Temple was to express that Ning Xianzhi would not have any prejudice against the White Snake and the Green Snake because of their demon identities, and would not implicate Chu Wuji.

"Wu Ji has a good talent, and we have a connection, so I want to guide him on his path of cultivation. If I'm not in that mood, no matter how good his talent is, I won't be interested!

If he misses me, it will be hard for him to find a better guide than me, and he might even run into some unorthodox wild cultivators!"

Hearing this, the green snake nodded in agreement with Ning Xianzhi's words and said:

"Okay, I won't interfere with his training here with you, but there are some things I'm unclear on."

"ask."

"Are you sure you're teaching him cultivation? Why does he still look like a mortal child? He can't use any spiritual energy at all?"

Ning Xianzhi frowned, not understanding how Qing Snake could have the nerve to ask such a question, and replied coldly:

"A few months ago, I wanted to take him back to the Shenxiao Sect to practice Taoism. Who kidnapped him? Wu Ji and I were separated for a long time, and we only met again a few days ago!"

...Oh, so it’s only been a few days since you became my disciple. I guess you haven’t had time to guide me in my practice yet. That’s understandable!

The green snake was just irrational in her actions, but she was still able to listen to reason in her mind. She felt a little guilty at the moment, so she didn't argue much.

But this is not right!

"Wait a minute, Wu Ji hasn't even started practicing yet, so why did he come all this way to defeat a river dragon? What if he encounters a sea dragon? He hasn't even started practicing yet, and this demon-slaying mission is so arduous?"

Ning Xianzhi would not take the blame for anything, she clarified:

"This is all your fault. It wasn't my arrangement. I was only responsible for sending him here. After you left him in the waterfall pool, Wu Ji met the spirit of the little fox's ancestor and avenged the little fox."

Ning Xianzhi then explained the fate of the little fox tribe in Liufeng Mountain and said:

"Wu Ji's physical refinement clearly required some guidance. It was probably the vengeful spirit that the little foxes invited through sacrifice. He came to assassinate the city lord in order to repay the spirit's guidance.

He prepared for the worst, considering the dragons that protected Jieshi City, but he still chose to come and assassinate without hesitation."

The worst-case scenario was that a dragon escaped from the sea, and Chu Wuji must have thought of a route for escape at that time.

As a result, the actual situation was neither good nor bad. There was no sea dragon protecting Jieshi City, only a fallen river dragon, and it was the lord of Jieshi City.

After learning the cause, Qingshe felt even more guilty, and her momentum weakened during her earlier confrontation with Ning Xianzhi.

Strictly speaking, Chu Wuji’s current expedition to hunt the dragon was inseparable from the attack by the green snake at that time.

Before setting off on this trip, Green Snake was extremely panicked when she heard her sister say that "blessings and misfortunes are interdependent" and she hurried out to check on the safety of her younger generation.

Now that I've inquired about it, it seems that the biggest crisis Chu Wu Ji has encountered in recent times was caused by her, the Green Snake!

"...Ahem." The green snake cleared its throat awkwardly, and finally asked, "What about Wuji's hair? He has so much vitality, how could his hair turn white for no reason?"

Ning Xianzhi politely remained silent and looked at the green snake calmly.

She found that the green snake did not seem to understand the meaning of her gaze, and she was staring in vain. The fairy held her forehead in annoyance to relieve her headache.

Now I see clearly that this green snake is a python.

Reckless.

"When you kidnapped the child from me, his hair was black. When I met him again, his hair had turned white. Miss Green Snake, who do you think is responsible?"

“…cough cough cough.”

Maybe it’s because of the vengeful spirit of the fox clan?

Qing Snake made up an excuse in her heart to ease the embarrassment, but she would not really say it out loud, as that would be too shameless.

It’s bad, the child has been caught in the heaviest rain ever, and it seems to be caused by her green snake!

Aunt Green Snake no longer had the nerve to stand up. She reviewed the conversation, sorted out her thoughts for a moment, and said:

"I came out to see Wu Ji because I was worried about his safety and wanted to know about his recent situation. Since he has chosen you as his spiritual guide, I have no objection.

This doesn't mean selling the child, so please don't alienate Wu Ji from us!"

Ning Xianzhi wanted to say something similar.

Ning Xianzhi was indeed jealous of the relationship between Chu Wuji and the white snake mother, but he also knew that it was impossible to persuade her.

If she said today, "Wu Ji, if you want to practice, you have to stay away from that snake demon," Chu Wu Ji would definitely sneak away in the middle of the night without even a thought.

Even if Bai Sujin herself came, she might not be able to convince her son. Ning Xianzhi had tried similar persuasion when he was briefly possessed by the remains, but it was completely useless.

Therefore, what she could do now was to first establish a relationship between herself and Chu Wuji, so that Chu Wuji would not follow the Green Snake to find Bai Sujin before they had time to get familiar with each other.

Then Ning Xianzhi would really be angry to death.

"Of course I won't alienate you. My other disciple, Yun Qingying, even brought her mother over to practice and live together. Why should I let Wuji alienate you?

Just don't distract him from his cultivation, or I'll have to watch helplessly as his lifespan dwindles and the elders die before the younger generation."

The green snake nodded with relief: "This is the best!"

At least on the point of "not wanting him to die young", White Snake, Green Snake and Ning Xianzhi had the same idea.

Even though their identities and positions are a little different, their targets are all on Chu Wuji!

Ning Xianzhi had previously inquired about the White Snake Temple and had some questions she wanted to know. She happened to meet one of the parties involved, so she took the opportunity to ask:

"Regarding the White Snake Temple incident, you and the White Snake should not have any intention of revenge against those people, so what are your plans for the Buddhists?"

"Every wrong has its perpetrator, how can we pretend nothing happened! We will naturally hold that beastly monk accountable later. Over the past few years, my sister has been trying to recuperate and raise her healthy, so this matter has been delayed!"

"I understand..." Ning Xianzhi sighed in his heart.

This is what the snake demon sisters are planning. Now that Wu Ji has the power, he will definitely not stay out of it...

Ning Xianzhi's thoughts ended early, as Jiuwu Taoist and Chu Wuzhi came back.

Chapter 122: Aunt, the body was stolen!

Chu Wuji saw the woman in green dress from afar and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The first thing he wanted to do when he landed was to eagerly walk forward and confirm the other party's identity again, but after calming down, he suppressed his anxiety and remained calm.

"Master, what did you talk about with this girl?"

Aunt Green Snake subconsciously wanted to speak out of habit, but luckily she reacted quickly and closed her lips again, feeling relieved:

"It almost got exposed. If I had said something out of the blue, I wouldn't know how I would have explained it. Was it a temporary cure?"

Ning Xianzhi was much calmer. Chu Wuji came back earlier than expected, but that didn't stop her from preparing an excuse. She said calmly:

"I wanted to know about the past of Jieshi City. I wanted to see if this girl knew what spirits existed in the East China Sea that were worthy of the river dragon making such a fortune that he would abandon his cattle and sheep to offer them as a token of his goodwill. Unfortunately, she hasn't been back to Jieshi City in so long. Everything has changed, and it's hard to find any trace of her past."

Chu Wuji nodded and didn't ask any further questions. He judged that it shouldn't be that simple, but as long as there was no fighting, it would be fine as long as they stayed peacefully.

"So what are the plans for this girl next?"

Aunt Green Snake thought for a moment, quickly made a decision, and wrote:

"Go take a look at this female immortal's cave, see the immortal's holy land, and then leave."

At least I should take a look at the child's training residence so that I won't feel lost. Only by taking a look can I leave with peace of mind and return to my sister.

Ning Xianzhi glanced at the green snake and did not object or refuse, which was considered as tacit approval of the green snake's presumptuous decision.

Anyway, just take a look and leave...

The drunken and dancing Taoist was completely oblivious to the thoughts of others. She continued to lie on the clouds, lamenting and lamenting listlessly:

"Xianzhi, the wine I didn't even have time to buy was stolen by the evil thief from the Hehuan Sect!"

Ning Xianzhi suddenly realized, no wonder he came back so soon.

If he went to the treasury to look for wine normally, Taoist Jiuwu would definitely not leave immediately after leaving the money, but would taste a few bowls before leaving.

The elegant and graceful female fairy in a plain dress looked at him with a deep gaze. After thinking for a moment, she said:

"I guess Jieshi City is just a place where the Hehuan Sect makes money. It seems to be making this place prosperous, but in fact, all the nutrients have been stolen by the Hehuan Sect."

"The most important thing is that you stole my wine!" Taoist Jiuwu was indignant.

Chu Wuji recalled the empty treasure house just now, and now he felt a little frightened, even more so than when he killed the river dragon.

The Lord of Hejiao City could not be innocent. He disguised his identity, amassed wealth and enjoyed himself, and fought against the army of the sea-going country. He was involved in every incident. However, while Jieshi City developed into a place of extravagance and prosperity, the greatest fruit was secretly taken away by someone without anyone noticing.

The price the Hehuan Sect paid was just the life of a woman!

If Chu Wuji had not intervened unexpectedly, the Hehuan Sect would have continued to extract the oil and water from this area. One day, when it could no longer extract anything and there was nothing left to be extracted from Jieshi City, the people of the Hehuan Sect quietly left.

Merchants began to retreat and move away, and the entire city gradually declined and decayed, without anyone noticing, as if waking from a dream.

Whether Chu Wuji kills Jieshi City or not, the outcome here will not change.

He asked Ning Xianzhi:

"Master, I dislike this Jieshi City, but it has nothing to do with ordinary people. Once the river dragon dies, the collapse of Jieshi City will come early. What should we do with this place in the future?

How will the righteous monks deal with the aftermath after dealing with the rebellious demons? "

The Taoist Jiuwu answered:

"The situation in Jieshi City cannot be resolved. It was discovered too late. It is likely that the people of the Hehuan Sect helped to hide the news here, which has caused too much damage to the surrounding areas.

All we can do is drive away those wild cultivators to prevent them from taking advantage of the chaos to harm the people. For further follow-up, we will have to see how effectively the Sea Nation handles the situation."

Chu Wuji estimated that the situation was very uncertain. He remembered that before he entered the city, he listened to the words of passers-by at the tea stall. Most of them praised the Lord of Jieshi City and despised the monarch of the sea-going country. The monarch might not treat the people of this place well in the future.

Let Lihuo Kingdom regain its lost territory?

That's probably difficult, because the existence of the Lihuo Mountains is too abstract, like a big piece of poop stretched by God, running east-west, across the earth without any interruption.

Along the way, there were long stretches of deep mountains and old forests, making it difficult for the Fire Nation to extend its front line to Jieshi City, and the supply of food and fodder was easily interrupted. To conquer Jieshi City, they had to conquer the Chuhai Nation as well.
