Chapter 993: Chapter 65 Dangerous City [Two in One]

"Wow——"

Chu Liang’s mouth puckered, his face twitching several times before he finally couldn’t restrain himself and burst into loud sobbing, overwhelmed with grief.

"That was the Pan God Bone, a divine artifact for exorcising evil spirits, an invaluable treasure that money can’t buy." He murmured softly, leaning into Jiang Yuebai, circling her waist, and acting like a clingy bird.

"Stop crying, stop crying," Jiang Yuebai could only pat his shoulder, softly comforting him, "This time we owe you a big favor for our family’s sake."

Chu Liang said quietly, "How could I haggle over favors with you? As long as I can help your family reunite, even if I have to give away all my possessions, it’s okay. It’s just... I’m feeling a little heartache."

"I know," Jiang Yuebai continued to pat his back, slowly consoling him.

The massive Black Whale shuttled through the Cloud Sea, the surrounding winds and thunder were fierce, indeed resembling a stormy sea, yet those winds and thunder seemed to have spirituality, avoiding the Black Whale.

Immortal Qi Jing conversed with Bai Yuxian at the whale’s head, husband and wife meeting after decades with possibly endless things to say, and the rest did not disturb them. Chu Liang and Jiang Yuebai talked at the whale’s tail, with Chu Liang in extreme emotional distress, also in need of proper consolation.

The Sword Emperor of the Western Sea sat alone on the whale’s back, towering above, watching the embracing couple at the whale’s head and another pair at the tail, he couldn’t help but cross his arms over his shoulders, wondering if it’s an illusion... he always felt a bit superfluous.

After a while, as the Black Whale broke through Shenxu’s barrier, Immortal Qi Jing and Bai Yuxian came to the whale’s tail.

"Are you upset?" Immortal Qi Jing asked.

"Who?" Chu Liang lifted his head and already had a sunny smile on his face, "Seeing your family reunion, I am too happy to be upset."

Jiang Yuebai, standing beside him, was amazed at the speed of his change of expression, which was simply astonishing.

Bai Yuxian stood against the wind, eying Chu Liang satisfactorily, nodding and said, "My daughter has good taste."

"That trait comes from you," chuckled Immortal Qi Jing.

Bai Yuxian gave him a glance before turning to Chu Liang, "The Pan God Bone is a treasure of the Mortal Realm. This time it indeed all depended on you; otherwise, our family might have stayed at the observatory. We just discussed it, and there really isn’t anything that can compensate for its value. In the future, we can stay at Shu Mountain and work for your Red Cotton Peak, as a way to offer some compensation."

"Why speak of such things...?" Chu Liang was somewhat flustered. Although he truly paid a heavy price, it didn’t make sense to have his future in-laws working for him, even if it was Immortal Qi Jing returning to Shu Mountain, it shouldn’t be in such a capacity.

Moreover, if they really stayed in Shu Mountain for good, he also had some concerns about Daoist Yan, what if they didn’t get along?

Of course, Uncle Yan was respectable and wouldn’t act out over once having feelings for Jiang Tiankuo. But what about her extremely disrespectful best friend? Their master had once made a drunken commotion at Jiang Tiankuo and Bai Yuxian’s wedding ceremony; if she decided to take a stand for her dear Yan Zi, who could stop her?

So after much thinking, Chu Liang still felt it was better for them not to reside permanently in Shu Mountain.

But he found it difficult to voice this sentiment.

Before he could think of a reason to refuse, he saw Immortal Qi Jing wave his hand, "After this trip back, you and Yue Bai’s wedding can also be arranged."

"Dad..." Jiang Yuebai suddenly heard this and softly called out.

"What, you don’t want to?" asked Immortal Qi Jing smiling at her.

"Of course, I am willing," Jiang Yuebai said with clear eyes, without hesitation, and turned to look at Chu Liang, "But he is busy with many affairs now, naturally, his career has to take precedence."

Chu Liang suddenly shook his head, took Jiang Yuebai’s hand, looked at her and smiled, "Naturally, Senior Sister Jiang is my priority."

It had been a long time since he had called her Senior Sister. Hearing this title, Jiang Yuebai was momentarily taken back to the moment they first met in the cave on Pagoda Peak.

Who would have thought? In just a few years, that unknown young boy had become a titan in the world, a person who could command the winds and clouds at the snap of his fingers.

It seemed as if everything had changed, yet it also seemed as if nothing had changed.

While the two of them were smiling at each other, suddenly they heard Sword Emperor of the Western Sea exclaim in shock, "What’s going on?!"

...

Inside Yu Capital City, a great disaster was unfolding at this moment.

Infinite ghosts, driven down from the sky, all landed within the city walls first, turning Yu City into a nocturnal playground for ghosts. The Regent Residence acted immediately, dispatching a large number of cultivators to exorcise the ghosts and establish prohibitions.

The City Protection Array of Yu City, unused for many years, was also activated. Like a giant beast awakening on the wilderness, it began to devour the surrounding Spiritual Energy, transforming into a shield of chaotic hue, temporarily stopping the further descent of ghosts. Any ghost touching the prohibitions would hiss and dissipate in a puff of smoke.

These ghosts were merely fleeing for their lives, and once they arrived in the Mortal Realm, they didn’t necessarily attack the array. As long as the Regent Residence methodically eradicated the ghosts that had entered the city, the crisis in Yu City could, for the time being, be resolved.

But at that moment, a wave shaped like a sickle rose from the Yu River that ran through the city, connecting both inside and outside the city walls. Suddenly, the giant wave rose and lodged itself within the city’s protective barrier.

Clank—

The large array covering the vast city had too vast an area to defend, and so the strength of any single point was inevitably weaker. As the sickle-shaped wave wedged in, with a violent sweep, it opened a gaping hole.
