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

In Yu Jijiu's mind, he could only think of those powerful ancient beasts. They didn't have a fixed method of cultivation, and didn't need to learn breathing exercises from their predecessors. They just grew according to their instincts and became stronger as they grew.

Chu Wuji is just a human being. Could he be such an existence?

"There is such a thing in the Lihuo Country..." She was amazed and felt that the situation was serious.

The Tianji Kingdom was able to send some death warriors for training, all because of the great influence of the Saint. The people trained there could not be called cultivators, but more of strange people.

Lihuo Nation already has such a being, and he also has a close relationship with two dragons. Is Lihuo Nation heading towards becoming a demon nation?!

The Kunlun Saint looked at her friend and said, "It's almost time for you to go back. Don't tell anyone in the palace about what happened today. Just read it and forget it."

"If such a person is hiding in the Lihuo Kingdom, and there is a conflict between the Tianji Kingdom and the Lihuo Kingdom in the future, wouldn't that be..." Yu Jijiu was worried.

It was said in the past that the immortal forces would not openly interfere in the changes of other countries. But now, there is such an exception in Lihuo country. He is not a cultivator, but he is better than most cultivators. How should this be played?

The Kunlun Saintess did not share her friend's concerns. She reminded:

"I'm no longer the Princess of Tianji Nation, so I can't help with this matter. I can only tell you one thing. Just now, when Chu Wuji was making his move, Kongtong Mountain secretly helped him set up a barrier. Kongtong Mountain is on his side. Do you understand what this means?"

How could Yu Jijiu not understand?

This means that if she leaked the secret, Chu Wuji would track her down and run to the palace of Tianji Kingdom to demolish the house. At best, Kongtong Mountain would come forward to persuade him to stop.

But it's just advice, I won't really stop him.

It's just like the folk joke - I won't watch you die, I will close my eyes.

"So, doesn't that mean the Tianji Nation can only formulate a strategy to avoid conflict with the neighboring Lihuo Nation and then arrange for a few princesses to marry there as a foolproof plan?"

The Kunlun Saint felt a little complicated as she listened to her friend's mutterings.

The Jade Maiden had just said that she wanted Chu Wuji to stay and sleep with the three Kunlun sisters, but the Saint Maiden's family was discussing arranging for the princess to go and persuade him to stabilize the relationship.

What if one of the princesses is the new imperial concubine and is suddenly arranged to marry a foreign prince, thus cutting off her path to becoming a candidate for the throne? It is really unpredictable and the imperial concubine is the one who warms the bed.

Is there any curse on the princess of Tianji Kingdom?

As the Fish Priest was about to leave, he remembered a detail and asked:

"Can you tell me how the barrier was set up when the Immortal Master from Kongtong Mountain didn't show up? I'll explain the situation when I return... and I won't reveal a single word about today's battle."

"The cultivators from Kongtong Mountain did not appear. They used magical weapons to set up a barrier from a distance, which was silent and difficult to detect. Chu Wuji was dodging the giant's attack, but he ran into a dead end and stopped when he encountered the barrier."

"...Is that the barrier of Kongtong Mountain? I thought it was a giant's blocking spell."

After complaining, Yu Jijiu left and hurried back to arrange things.

Chapter 379: Starry Sky

In Kongtong Mountain, the eldest sister came to the side of True Person Zixiang and was surprised about her itinerary.

"Master Zixiang, why are you still here? Aren't you helping Master Chu set up the formation?"

"I find Kunlun Ruins unlucky. It ruins my cultivation state. Besides, it's over."

The female cultivator who looked like an old woman took out a magic weapon in the shape of a chessboard and returned it to Senior Sister Gu. This was originally something from the sect and had to be returned after use.

This magical weapon is called [Starry Sky]. It looks like a chessboard, but upon closer inspection, it resembles a star chart. Its range is extremely wide, allowing its holder to deploy a formation from anywhere in Tianji Country. Even further distances are possible, but the power will be reduced.

It can be a barrier that traps people, or a killing array that annihilates the enemy. It is launched silently and is difficult to guard against.

However, this "silent" characteristic almost harmed Chu Wuji just now.

Senior Sister Gu Wangshu took back the [Starry Sky] and left a translucent chess piece at the corresponding position of Kunlun Ruins. That was the place where Master Zixiang had just played chess and arranged the formation.

Gu Wangshu reached out and touched the chess piece, and the scene of the fight with Chu Wuji just now appeared. The situation within the barrier would also appear on the chessboard, making it convenient for the person who set up the formation to observe the situation at any time.

Seeing that Master Zixiang almost harmed Chu Wuzhi, she looked at the sect elder unhappily. Master Zixiang was a little embarrassed and turned her head away, pretending to look at the scenery.

After a long while, Senior Sister Gu finished watching the whole thing and was filled with emotion:

"Last year in the Lihuo Mountains, Master Chu wasn't this powerful. But now, even without the power of the mountain god, his strength cannot be underestimated. I really don't know how he has grown..."

When Master Zixiang heard that the topic was no longer about herself, she started talking:

"Indeed, why not let this kid carry a dozen or twenty talismans with him? Every time we fight, we can tear off one. We can see how he got here and give the sect disciples some reference."

Gu Wangshu actually had this curiosity as well. She thought of what Xu Fu had sent to his disciples and said:

"Last time, several disciples received guidance from Master Chu. Although they mastered the essence of the magical powers, they also nearly created several new and bizarre ways for the cultivators to die."

True Person Zixiang laughed heartily. She had also been making fun of those disciples these past few days.

The two did not chat on this topic for too long, their eyes were fixed on the two people from the Wu Tomb.

"This is the true face of the Wuzhong members..."

"They've been sneaking around for so many years, and I thought they were just treacherous and weak, but it turns out they're not simple at all!"

*

Chu Wuji returned to the side of the White Snake Mother and the Sky Fox Mother, explained the identity of the woman from Erchong Mountain, and then immediately proposed:

"This is Kunlun Ruins' territory after all. If they have any ill intentions and want to interfere, we will be in more trouble for no reason. Let's leave here first and then slowly interrogate those two souls."

This suggestion is very reasonable. This place is different from the Sun and Moon Country. They really have the strength to take action at the doorstep of Kunlun Ruins!

We made such a big noise here, but it didn't attract too many passers-by's attention. We are already lucky. We must not be lucky anymore. We must retreat when we need to!

Bai Sujin was much calmer than her son. She glanced at the two corpses and said:

"What should we do? Just let them stay here? The climate in Kunlun Mountain is extremely cold, I'm afraid they won't rot on their own."

"What else can we do? Search the corpse for treasures, and then destroy the evidence!" Aunt Green Snake has already started.

She used magic to create several small green snakes, which crawled onto the corpses of the three men and scurried around looking for treasure.

But unfortunately, the result of searching the corpse was almost nothing.

They didn't even have any martial arts diagrams or magic weapons on them, only some gold and silver items of the day, which were probably looted for consumption.

Even the clothes he was wearing were not cassocks, but simply rags that had been picked up from somewhere, used only to cover his body.

This is not consistent with the wealth and property they should have given their strength. They are just like paupers crawling out of a wild grave.

"So poor? It's cleaner than the rice jar in our house. How did it get into trouble?" Aunt Green Snake was very disappointed.

Chu Wuji took a few glances and his sight fell on the broken weapons:

"These weapons look like treasures. They look very old and badly damaged. Are they made from the bones of ancient beasts?"

Judging from the color of the soil, it seems that it was dug out some time ago. It is possible that these two three-bodied people dug out this antique from somewhere specifically in order to give their colleagues a powerful stab in the back.

The Fox Goddess took a look and said with a reluctant acceptance:

“Although they are badly damaged, these items are probably buried somewhere in the earth veins and are well-preserved. Let’s take them back and see if there is anything we can use.

If you really can’t use it, just give it to the little foxes as a teething stick~"

Chu Wuji grabbed the fire from the evil pot and threw it on the corpse. The flames spread to his body like dry firewood, and the corpse soon turned into a pile of brown scorched earth.

When you look closer, you can't tell that these two piles of things were originally corpses. They look more like piles of garbage and dirt that appeared out of nowhere on the snow.

"Their bodies are made of this mud?" Chu Wuji frowned, but did not continue to worry about it. He immediately asked his aunt to lead the way back.

Aunt Green Snake did not refuse, and flew up into the sky, returning with her companions. Seeing her youngest's serious expression, she pulled him aside and joked:

"It's a rare opportunity to show off, why don't you use your wind-controlling ability to blow our skirts and whisk us all the way back?

So, is this called bragging or blowing the serpent?

This is outrageous!

Chu Wuji could understand his aunt's comforting intentions, forced a smile, racked his brains to think of a joke, and replied:

"My control isn't very good right now. I'll show it off when I'm more proficient. That way the effect will be better."

Aunt Green Snake's flying speed is not slow. After turning into a dragon, the clouds in the sky become her home ground.

Bai Sujin knew very well that Chu Wuji had forgotten one thing. He was absent-minded and did not tell Qingshe where to go back. If he didn't tell her, she might fly away.

This Xiaoqing is really like that, she doesn't talk about anything, she doesn't ask, she just flies based on her feelings...

"Wuji, where should we go back to now? Should we go to Kongtong Mountain for a chat, or return to Lihuo Country?"

Chu Wu Ji came to his senses and realized that he had neglected this matter.

Logically speaking, I should go and tell Kongtong Mountain that I am safe and that everything is going well, but I will also have to say some greetings to a group of immortal monks at that time.

He wasn't in that mood yet.

"Let's go back to the Lihuo Mountains. Our own territory is safe and secure."

"Okay." Aunt Green Snake changed direction and sent the group back to the familiar mountains.

Chu Wu Ji used the power of the mountain god and was instantly teleported to the mountain king's cave. Unexpectedly, he met Mrs. Baihu bathing by the river. Fortunately, she did not blame him and understood Chu Wu Ji's anxiety.

"Goddess Sky Fox, please release those two souls!"

Chapter 380: Rain Master Concubine

In Madam Baihu's eyes, Chu Wuzhi and his group were not outsiders, but relatives and friends who trusted each other. He had even rescued Xiaotu.

At this moment, Mrs. Baihu saw Chu Wuji's hurried pace and remembered his recent absence, so she knew what he was going to do.

The tall woman with wheat-colored skin grabbed a wisp of morning mist from the mountains, wrapped it around herself like a bath towel to cover her tight body, and walked towards Chu Wuji to watch the fun.

However, the restraining effect of the morning mist bath towel was not very good, and it only played a fixing role. When Madam White Tiger approached with a natural and sexy cat (tiger) step, the soft flesh on her body trembled, and the mist also trembled, hazy like a veil.

She paused, and drops of water slid down the delicate skin of her calves.

"Don't worry about me, just do your thing, I'll just watch from the side."

As far as I can remember, the last person dressed similarly was Senior Jiujiu. When we were taking a hot spring bath together in Huotang City, she was blurred with mist.

Chu Wuji nodded in response and looked at Goddess Tianhu.

The magic fox was so round that it couldn't walk. It opened its mouth and spit, and instantly became thin again.

Two slightly huge three-body human souls appeared on the open space in the valley. They looked confused and their vision was unfocused, but they still had the hatred and unwillingness from their previous lives, and the resentment was floating in their bodies.

The man's soul was badly beaten to pieces, so in order to save effort, the target of interrogation was first chosen to be the woman's soul.

Chu Wuji couldn't wait to ask, "Tell us everything you know about the Witch Tomb!"

The soul did not respond and remained silent.

The Fox Goddess said helplessly, "Don't embarrass these remnant souls. They don't have the ability to think. Go and help the young master to slowly sort out the intelligence thread. Ask more specifically~"

The three souls and seven spirits, some involve memory, some involve consciousness and thinking. Their self-awareness has been almost wiped out, so it is too difficult to ask them to think.

Aunt Green Snake first asked casually:

"You don't seem to be here to rescue our companions from Wuqi Nation, but rather to assassinate them. And you attach so much importance to their bone knives. Why?"

The swaying soul paused for a moment before replying:

"They sacrificed themselves to bring about the catastrophe. The bone knife is a token of their fulfillment. With it, the Lord of the Witch Tomb will help recall our old friends..."

This answer brought back everyone's memories, and some information from the previous interrogation of Wuqi was compared.

Chu Wuji pondered and said:

"The Wuqi people said that Wuzhong's actions were to make up for the calamity. If the calamity is not enough, they will not help them awaken the clan members in the ancestral tomb.

Now, it seems that not every member of the Wuzhong will receive this treatment; they must fulfill the conditions of this 'great catastrophe'."

Bai Sujin was not with her son at the time and did not experience the chaos caused by Qiongqi, but she later inquired about relevant information and understood it almost completely.

This great catastrophe most likely refers to Qiongqi.

"According to the intelligence gathered by the Immortals, the strength of the ancestral spirits in various places varies, ranging from beings like Senior Sky Fox to elderly and slow-witted old men.

From this perspective, the great calamity is the spirit of a powerful ancestor like Senior Tianhu and Qiongqi."

The upper and lower limits of the witch tomb's sacrifice technique fluctuate ridiculously widely. Some ancestral spirits are so weak that they can't even stir up any waves. It took the immortal monks visiting and asking everywhere to find out some clues.

Chu Wuzhi took off the two bone knives from his waist and placed them in front of everyone.

The bone knife of the Wuqi man seemed to be made by slowly grinding large bones, while the bone knife of the Sanshen man was made from the fangs of some strange beast.
