Chapter 509: Chapter 87 Did I Get Bitten? Asking for Monthly Tickets!_1

"A person’s appearance and figure may change, but their eyes and temperament, those will never change."

Daoist Yan had once said this to Chu Liang. At that time, Jiang Tiankuo had also transformed himself into a completely different appearance, yet Daoist Yan recognized him at a glance.

Now, on the Mount Sealed Cliff which was filled with demonic qi, the Red Clothes Palace Master did the same. She quickly advanced forward, staring directly into the eyes of Immortal Qi Jing, not averting her gaze even for a second.

Time was fleeting, and in the blink of an eye, decades had passed. The people and scenery around her had greatly changed, yet through the light in those pair of eyes, she instantly glimpsed the original image.

She belonged to the demon sect from an early age due to her father’s position as an elder in the Underworld King Sect. She quickly grew to become one of the proud disciples of her generation. During a treasure hunt in a secret realm, she was accidentally injured. Coincidentally, a disciple of Shu Mountain entered the realm afterwards and saved her.

Due to her injuries, she did not reveal her background but hid her identity, planning to take the opportunity to kill this disciple of Shu Mountain. However, after just a day of being together, she felt an extraordinary charm from this person. So she decided to wait until she got the treasure before taking action. To wait until she left this place before taking action. To wait until her injuries healed before taking action...

She became more and more hesitant.

When the two of them left the secret realm, the demonic cultivators from Underworld King Sect who came looking for her surrounded her. He held her in one arm and wielded his sword with another, waves of sword light spread out, creating a sky full of stars.

His eyes were the same as they are now.

Even after all these years, through all the trials and tribulations, he has not changed.

He was the one she had been searching for all these years.

In the instance she stepped forward, the Red Clothes Palace Master removed her mask, revealing a cool and stunning face, her eyes tender.

She wanted to say something, but ultimately didn’t.

However, Yi Qiushui who was behind her was extremely surprised. In all the years she had followed her master, she remembered that her master would always wear a mask when she went out. Even though she would always doll herself up in the loft, she never let anyone see her face when she was outside.

But now, she had taken off her mask.

Could it be that her decades of dolling up were all for this man?

So this man is not an imposter...

However, at this moment, black snow fell across the sky. Immortal Qi Jing didn’t seem moved like the Red Clothes Palace Master. He merely bowed slightly and said, "I’ve seen the Red Clothes Palace Master. The situation is tense right now and the Sect Master is keeping an eye on us. I dare not be careless. Therefore, I won’t be able to give a detailed explanation for everything. I beg for your permission to leave first. I will come and talk in detail after... the Breath of Hades is claimed."

"Ah..." Upon hearing this, the Red Clothes Palace Master seemed to be pulled back to reality. Her hair dispersed, and her red clothes waved. After a while, she managed to say: "You may leave first, but I have something to ask you... Remember to come back."

The two of them looked at each other, separated by decades, their gazes as profound as the sea.

After one glance, Immortal Qi Jing turned around and left. His figure gradually merged into the vast shadows on the snowy mountain, becoming an unnoticeable part of them.

After a long while, the Red Clothes Palace Master was still standing in mid-air.

Yi Qiushui flew up, calling out in a soft voice, "Master..."

She was not stupid and had a rough idea from watching. That man was probably in an inconvenient position to reveal his identity and her master was unable to unburden her heart to him.

Searching for countless years, upon seeing him again after all the turmoil in her heart, but not even able to say a word, it must’ve been like a turbulent sea in her master’s heart.

As time goes by, what can be done about it.

...

"You really didn’t change at all."

Chu Liang looked at the little girl munching on the fruit and laughed helplessly.

Before Immortal Qi Jing left, he told Chu the girl’s name, Jiang Guo... Indeed, it was a very indicative name.

Luckily, as the largest berry orchard owner in the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands, Chu Liang always had plenty of stock on hand.

On one hand, these were spirit plants that could supplement qi and blood. Although they didn’t contain much spirituality, if you were trapped somewhere while traveling, eating one or two could sustain you for a while. Otherwise, regardless of how high your cultivation was, you’d run the risk of depleting your qi and blood over time.

Then you’d really be in trouble.

On the other hand, it was also convenient if he ran into any big shots in the Immortal Cultivation World. He could simply take one out for the other party to taste, promoting his own products. Perhaps the big shot could be pleased and would place a large order.

Last time he made a round to the Regent Residence, he managed to secure a long-term sales channel.

As the product that had helped him establish his business, Chu Liang had no plans to give up on the berries even though Red Cotton Peak was thriving. After all, it takes a lot of effort to build a brand and the profits are still quite substantial.

Little Jiangguo had already eaten a dozen fruits in just a short while and showed no sign of stopping. Chu Liang never imagined these treats could be so addictive?

What Chu Liang didn’t know was that, after being purified in the sacred mountain’s array, the death aura on Jiangguo had been suppressed, making her non-aggressive towards living beings. However, deep down, she still craved qi and blood, hoping to enhance her own power by absorbing it.

The spirit plants and elixirs full of qi and blood were rather precious, and surely couldn’t be wasted as her regular meals. Only the Gold Pattern Berries, each containing a hint of qi and blood that could sate her cravings, and having a delightful flavor in themselves, had naturally become her favorite.

Despite Immortal Qi Jing having stolen a large patch of fruit sprouts from Shu Mountain last time, only a small portion of them had survived on the Northern Region Holy Mountain. They had to be rationed daily and couldn’t be indulged upon by the little girl.

So when she finally encountered Chu Liang, a generous provider of berries, she naturally intended to feast to her heart’s content.

Lights or dark winds were constantly sweeping across the sky, and some people’s divine sense occasionally scanned Chu Liang. But upon realizing he was from the Underworld King Sect, they paid him no further attention.

The troops from various halls who had been stationed further ahead to intercept Granny Meng had also arrived at Sealed Cliff Mountain one after another. It seemed their previous attempts had all failed.

It wasn’t surprising, after all, Granny Meng was a powerful being of the Seventh Realm and was very familiar with the internal affairs of the Underworld King Sect after having been there for numerous years. It would be hard to capture her using these troops alone.

Suddenly, there was a shake from within his arms.

He pulled it out and found it was the Soul Summoning Order. They had already notified the Purple Gold Marquis that their location was at Sealed Cliff Mountain, and he guessed the other side had also arrived.

Upon opening it, it turned out his guess was right.

[East Road Guide]: "Where are your positions?"

[Fifty Eight]: "We are all on top of Sealed Cliff Mountain. The Sect Master decided to intercept Granny Meng here."

Although Chu Liang was not on Sealed Cliff Mountain, he had to reply in this way because the identity he was under was that of Immortal Qi Jing, while he himself was now just an outsider taking care of a child.

[East Road Guide]: "I will first go to the periphery of Sealed Cliff Mountain to scout. I can’t approach recklessly, otherwise, it could draw the attention of the four halls of the Underworld. The Marquis hopes to find Granny Meng outside Sealed Cliff Mountain ahead of time. Report any information immediately."

[Fifty Nine]: "Currently, the first wave of Yin tide is attacking the mountain, and we are doing our best to wipe them out. Granny Meng could be hidden among the chaos, or she might be watching from the outside. It’s great that the Marquis is here, we have backbone now, we will have easier days now... "

[Sixty]: "Received."

[Fifty Eight]: "We’ve been guarding near Sealed Cliff Mountain, and we don’t know much about Granny Meng’s movements. If Lord Guide Envoy would like to know more about the specifics, you can try asking people from the other halls. They are rushing over from the front and they should know more about Granny Meng’s whereabouts."

[East Road Guide]: "I understand the situation. You all be careful. I will see if I can catch someone from another hall on the outside to ask more questions."

With that, the East Road Guide dropped out of the Soul Summoning Order.

Chu Liang also put away the Soul Summoning Order, thinking to himself let the dogs bite each other.

He suggested to the East Road Guide to ask people from the other halls, with the intention to sow discord. The others certainly wouldn’t willingly tell him, as he would definitely have to use certain means.

The more intense the antagonism between the Purple Gold Marquis and the four halls of the Underworld, the more they could muddle through the chaos. He was obviously hoping for more chaos within the Underworld King Sect.

Just as he was thinking this, he suddenly heard a whooshing sound. A streak of light fell on the slope not far away.

An old man with sharp eyes, dressed in a black robe and with white hair, instantly locked onto Chu Liang with a sweep of his divine sense.

Chu Liang naturally felt the other’s arrival. Considering the other was a formidable cultivator who seemed to harbor bad intentions, he immediately became slightly guarded.

To his surprise, without any further words, the stranger suddenly lifted his arm, and unleashed a beam of dark light from his sleeve!

Chu Liang was quite familiar with this divine skill, it was the Soul Piercing Nail!

He fell victim to this move not long after he started his cultivation journey. A Soul Enforcer from the Underworld King Sect had then used this move to subdue him and Song Qingyi. This unique technique was something Soul Enforcers under the Purple Gold Marquis were proficient in.

However, there was a significant difference between the cultivation of that Golden Core Realm Soul Enforcer and this current black-robed man. When this man attacked casually now, the attack echoed with a howl and left behind a trail, appearing like a black lightning, signifying at least a cultivation of the Sixth Realm!

Wait a second...

Upon recognizing the origin of the other’s divine skill, Chu Liang immediately recalled what the East Road Guide had said earlier.

Under his instigation, he had said he would capture someone from the Underworld’s four halls to interrogate...

Oh no.

So, I’m the dog being bitten here?
