Chapter 239: Chapter 151 Wen Liangyu

Is it possible for two similar, mysterious women to appear at the same time within the small confines of Feng Province? The most reasonable explanation is that they are actually the same person!

It was her who helped Wen Liangyu to escape from Rock City, evading the pursuit along the way, and even facing a Great Demon at the Divine Refining Stage without changing her expression or heartbeat! Speaking of which, her heartbeat and breathing are indeed unusually slow, breathing barely over a hundred breaths per minute, and her heartbeat only ninety beats per breath, presumably because she possesses a secret technique.

However, in the cave beneath Wen Residence, the creature in the water is very powerful and has the geographical advantage. Even cultivators at the Golden Core Stage would find it difficult to get the better of it once in the water. This girl is merely a mortal, so how could she escape from it? Along the way, no one has seen Wen Liangyu, and the power of Fengtian Prefecture is immense. In just two short days, they almost had men turned Feng Province upside down searching every conceivable hiding place for Half-demons and even ransacked every house in Rock City. Where on earth did she hide him? Is Wen Liangyu still within the borders of Feng Province?

The more he thought about it, the more intriguing he found it.

If it had been before today, he might have felt deceived and then furiously angry, using various Divine Skills to search for her. But now...

That muddleheaded old man at home, who scolded him last night for not executing well, had handed the task of searching for the Spirit Tea Seedling to his elder brother and instead reassigned him to coordinate border affairs with the Immortal Sects in the Central region. Heh, his elder brother wouldn’t get a shred of information from him and naturally couldn’t imagine the many secrets Ning Xiaoxian had. Thus, he would only deviate further from the path of search.

What does this have to do with him? He just needs to sit back and enjoy the show. As for Ning Xiaoxian and Wen Liangyu, they still need to be found quickly. A treasure like Spirit Tea, in whose hands it is held, gives them the initiative. Once he’s done with his business in the Central region and returns, he intends to look for her personally.

Now, the number of people who know a part of Ning Xiaoxian’s secrets is down to one.

Da Zi.

In this game, if everyone wants to play happily together, this bad egg cannot stay.

Mmm, there’s no longer any need to keep her alive. So what if she was sent by the old man? He has ways of eliminating the problem thoroughly.

Changtian summoned Ning Xiaoxian into the God Demon Prison. On the bottom floor, there were just the two of them and a Pill Furnace; Wen Liangyu was nowhere to be seen.

"Where is he?"

"I’ve tossed him onto the Fifth Floor." Changtian’s expression was severe, "I ask you, what do you plan to do with Wen Liangyu?"

This question had also troubled her for many days, but she had been too busy fleeing for her life to have time to think about it seriously. On a whim, she had saved Wen Liangyu from Rock City, and of course, she gained benefits herself—spirit tea seeds that the whole world wanted, which she had tucked away for herself, at the cost of being endlessly pursued by the forces of Fengtian Prefecture and other Immortal Demon groups.

The person was saved, but what next? The Cat Demon Ahua is not a pet, and naturally neither is Wen Liangyu. She can’t keep him locked up in the God Demon Prison forever; what’s the difference between that and being in prison?

"Do you have any good ideas?" Her eyes sparkled as she looked at him. Since Changtian raised the issue, it indicated that he definitely had a way to solve it.

This clever ghost. He shook his head and said, "These past few days, I’ve been examining his foundation and discovered that he has a natural talent for Arrays."

No wonder a few days ago, he had her bring in some sand and stones. These past few days, it’s always been the two of them going back and forth over the sandbox, performing complicated calculations, engrossed in their work. She crouched to the side, feeling her eyelids start to fight with each other out of boredom after watching for half a moment. When she was studying, she wasn’t very good with science, and she has always had great admiration for theoretical and technical talents like them. Seeing the two of them engrossed in their work, she didn’t bother—she couldn’t understand it anyway!

She knew that when Wen Liangyu used to live at the City Lord Mansion, he relied on several incomplete arrays to protect his little courtyard thoroughly. What’s more commendable is that he was actually able to complete and improve these superficial arrays. Regardless of the final effect, what does this prove? It proves that at least he has a thorough understanding and mastery of the principles and mechanisms of arrays!

In this world, knowing ’what’ but not ’why’ is the norm for humans and cultivators alike. To use the Huaxia language she understood, it is to only remember the appearances, not the principles. Seeking immortality and asking the Dao is in fact just a method of discerning heavenly mechanisms and divining the will of heaven, which has stumped countless successors.
