Yu Yaozi and Liu Tianchen
"Has the Great Palace Master already refined the cursed monster?"
Li Weiyi strongly suspected that the so-called Flame Storm was created by Yu Yaozi.
Because, after she flew down from above, the seemingly terrifying Flame Storm was actually blocked. It roared behind her small body, but she couldn't get past it no matter what she did.
Yu Yaozi was already about 1.5 meters tall, her eyes shining strangely in the firelight, and she had an indifferent and taciturn demeanor. She did not respond to Li Weiyi, but looked down at the Mind Master Guard people gathered below the Fire Abyss on Yan Jue Mountain.
Seeing her like this, Li Weiyi felt a strange sense of loss, as if she had lost something important that she could never get back.
In his mind, he couldn't help but recall the first time Yu'er woke up, her murmuring sobs in her sleep on his back, the first time she called him "Master," the time he taught her to write at the inn, the time he carried her on his back as they fled, and the meals he prepared every night in Dongxu Camp... and so on.
These images sank into the dark depths of consciousness, gradually becoming blurred.
Just like the time I spent with my master, Senior Disciple Sister, and senior brother in Longevity Hill when I was young. It's over, and I can never go back.
Li Weiyi said, "The chief sentry is not at the Dongxu Camp; it is the Deputy Sentinel Lord is stationed there."
"Liu Tianchen? He can do it too!" Yu Yaozi said.
Li Weiyi said, "If the Great Palace Master goes out like this, it will probably cause a huge uproar. The Dongxu Camp is a gathering place for genius martial artists from all the major forces in the southern part of the Hundred Realms Life Domain. Why don't we go into the Blood Mud Space first?"
Yu Yaozi looked at the Dao Ancestor Taiji Fish pendant around his neck, extended her finger, then withdrew it. "What an extremely mysterious crimson star! Li Weiyi, who exactly are you?"
News of the Flame Storm had spread throughout Yan Jue Mountain.
"Splash!"
As the mountain grew, Formation Script rose up, and a misty protective Light Veil gradually appeared.
"Wait a minute, Li Weiyi is still inside."
Taishi Yu shouted and then rushed towards the mountaintop.
For the past month, all the sentries and spirits in the Mind Master Guard recruit camp have been eagerly anticipating the arrival of Li Weiyi, frequently glancing up at the fiery abyss above. Some sentries have even made bets on when Li Weiyi will emerge from the abyss.
When Li Weiyi stayed in the Heavenly Fire World for more than thirty-four days, even the reclusive and mysterious Xiaowei was alerted. A sentry saw her peering into the Fire Abyss.
"Why are you running around like that? I'm going to pick him up."
Xue Yan stood on the mountaintop, shouted at Taishi Yu, and was about to fly towards the Fire Abyss.
But then, Li Weiyi, dressed in the Provincial Governor's Official Robe, descended from above, his body ablaze with fiery light, and landed steadily on the mountaintop.
Amidst the fiery glow, Yu Yaozi, clad in Water Element Dragon Scale Armor, stood.
"Boom!"
Above the mountaintop, the Defensive Formation Light Veil condensed, blocking the heavenly fire surging from the Fire Abyss. Subsequently, the sky above the Dongxu Camp, stretching for hundreds of miles, turned crimson, and the sky seemed to be burning.
"Thank goodness, we made it back in time," Yuan Jingsan said.
Li Weiyi clasped his hands in a fist salute to the several veteran sentry spirits at the mountaintop. "I was too engrossed in my cultivation, which caused you seniors to worry!"
"To be able to stay in the Heavenly Fire World for two months on your first visit is simply astonishing. If it weren't for the Flame Storm, I think you could have stayed even longer, Xiao Li."
"How did they do that? This isn't just innate talent; they must have mastered some kind of secret technique."
Also on the mountaintop were Nangong, Qing Ziqin, and Blood Jade Material.
All three could sense that the spiritual light emanating from Li Weiyi was extremely powerful, clearly indicating that he had condensed more than the eleventh Psychic Power Stars.
Their feelings were all different.
Standing amidst the Radiant Mist, Nangong scrutinized the young man before her for the first time. Previously, whether it was Li Weiyi's contest with Blood Jade Material or the gathering of the Lesser Yang Division, Li Weiyi was no different from a wisp of air in her eyes.
Qing Ziqin truly couldn't understand how someone with such extraordinary mental abilities, and the courage to risk his life to kill the Taiyin Envoy, could collude with Taishi Yu. She had heard some unpleasant rumors about Taishi Yu and Instructor Xue Yan.
Blood Jade Material's thoughts drifted far away. With his abilities, he was indeed not qualified to say that he could represent the Sacred Dark Family to resolve the conflict with Li Weiyi.
However, he didn't think Li Weiyi would go very far in the future. His Lineage and the Crown Prince would not allow such a brilliant talent to grow up, and they would definitely eliminate Li Weiyi when he began to show his talent in Southern Yingzhou.
Who told him to get too close to Yu Yaozi?
The Sacred Dark Family is a faction within the Demon Kingdom, belonging to the Crown Prince's lineage. The Crown Prince harbors an irreconcilable hatred for Zen Sea Observing Mist, Yu Yaozi, and Lingxiao Palace.
Li Weiyi discovered that everyone present, including all the instructors, could neither see Yu Yaozi nor sense her presence. This situation was extremely strange.
"Why waste time talking to them? Let's go." Yu Yaozi glanced at Li Weiyi.
Li Weiyi had no choice but to bid farewell to everyone. Halfway up the mountain, he encountered Taishi Yu.
Taishi Yu had been waiting with a group of young male and female sentries for quite some time. They all smiled and bowed to Li Weiyi, who was coming down the mountain, offering their congratulations.
Taishi Yu was very proud. He pulled Li Weiyi aside and transmitted his voice. "Recently, many people have been asking about the Extreme Day True Pill. Do you still have any? Also, there are several sentinels of considerable background, either from the Mega-clan or from the forces of the Lord of Life Realm, who want to get to know you. Would you like to meet them?"
Seeing Yu Yaozi's impatient look, Li Weiyi quickly said, "I have important matters to attend to. We'll talk when I get back. By the way, please explain things to Qing Ziqin. She overheard everything we said at the Yan Jue Mountain that day, causing quite a misunderstanding."
"If this matter is not handled properly, it will indeed affect your reputation, Li Shenglin. In the future, even if you are famous throughout the world, you will inevitably be criticized. Don't worry, leave this matter to me. I'm not bragging, but I can easily take care of that little girl, Qing Ziqin." Taishi Yu his chest and guaranteed.
In his view, any girl who hasn't been with a man is just a little girl.
"Don't mess around, just explain yourself."
Li Weiyi gave this reminder, then enveloped Yu Yaozi in spiritual light and headed towards the Spirit Mountain where the Camp Hall was located.
At the top of Lingshan Mountain, the black Camp Hall stands solemnly, with sentries standing guard and patrolling.
The moment Li Weiyi and Yu Yaozi arrived at the mountaintop and stepped into Qingyu Square.
Sitting in the Camp Hall, Liu Tianchen's eyes narrowed slightly. He placed a secret intelligence scroll about "Chu Yutian" back on the table, and then disappeared from his seat.
He appeared outside the gate of the black Camp Hall, standing tall and straight, gazing at Yu Yaozi, who was walking with Li Weiyi in the square below.
"Whoosh!"
The square was shrouded in a misty haze of Buddhist energy, isolating it from the outside world.
Liu Tianchen's voice was neither humble nor arrogant. "What brings the Great Palace Master to Dongxu Camp?"
"Since you're an avatar, then focus on military affairs. Liu Tianchen, I'm here, why don't you show yourself?"
Yu Yaozi slightly raised her head and looked at the thirteen-story ancient Ancient Tower floating in the air.
The Ancient Tower is located in the Heaven Law Earth Spring, thousands of feet above the ground. It is a Supreme Magic Tool, and once activated, it can level mountains.
Liu Tianchen's Willow Wood Clone retreated and returned to the hall. The Ancient Tower door above opened, and a deep, resonant voice rang out. "Please!"
Yu Yaozi transformed into a streak of light, flew into the sky, entered the tower, and looked at Liu Tianchen's true form, who was sitting in the Qi Sea: "Next, I will mainly stay in Dongxu Camp for a while. Yan Jue Mountain is my cultivation ground, and I don't want to be disturbed by anyone. Everything must be kept secret."
Looking at her figure, which appeared to be only thirteen or fourteen years old, Liu Tianchen understood the reason. "That's fine! In the Southern Yingzhou, there are ten emperors Twenty-Eight Stored Sons of Heaven. You, Yu Yaozi, are ranked third among the Stored Son of Heaven. Even if the chief envoy were in the camp, he would definitely give you this face."
Yu Yaozi then said, "I want to review all the intelligence information from the Dongxu Camp."
"That might be inconvenient!" Liu Tianchen said.
Yu Yaozi said, "With the revival of the Immortal Dao Dragon Vein, the chaos in the East Sea will only intensify. Can you, Liu Tianchen, protect the Rainforest Realm? I am not interested in the Dongxu Camp, but I must know the current state of the Lingxiao Shengjing, the East Sea, and the Dongxu Ghost City, and how far this uncontrollable crisis will unfold."
Liu Tianchen pondered for a moment, "Alright, I can share some intelligence with you. How long do you plan to stay at Dongxu Camp?"
"It could take as little as one year or as long as three years," Yu Yaozi said.
Liu Tianchen said, "The Taiyin Sect and the Dongxu Ghost City may not give us three years."
"It's you! The Dongxu Ghost City wants to attack the East Sea and seize the Immortal Dao Dragon Vein, so it must first destroy the Dongxu Camp. If you can't even hold out for three years, you might as well disband as soon as possible and let all the sentry spirits go home."
Yu Yaozi then asked, "Does the Sentinel Spirit Army have any news about the Master Wu?"
Liu Tianchen shook his head. "If it were so easy to find out where Mist Son of Heaven was, she would have been killed by Fei Feng and Yu Baxian long ago."
Yu Yaozi then asked, "Where is Xianmin? Where is she?"
"A month ago, a grand wedding ceremony was held in Carefree Capital. Your Junior Sister, Xianmin, married Yu Daozhen, the Demon Country Crown Prince. It is said throughout the land that Yu Daozhen suffered incurable injuries in the battle of Lingxiao City, and his path to the throne is over. He wants to use this wedding ceremony to tell those in the Demon Kingdom who covet the crown prince's position that he has recovered from his injuries and returned to his peak."
Liu Tianchen added, "Furthermore, because of your special relationship with Li Weiyi, Yu Daozhen and Xianmin have dispatched a large number of experts, led by the New Jia Explorer Wenren Tinghai, to search for Li Weiyi throughout Lingxiao Shengjing and the East Sea. With the power of the Demon Kingdom, it's only a matter of time before they find out that he's hiding in Dongxu Camp."
Li Weiyi waited in the square for most of the day before he finally saw Yu Yaozi emerge from the Camp Hall.
After her meeting with Liu Tianchen, she began reviewing major world events that had occurred over the past decade or so, with a particular focus on intelligence information from the last year.
The two returned to Yan Jue Mountain one after the other, and were almost at the Qingyin Pavilion when...
She suddenly said, "Li Weiyi, from the perspective of a low-level Dao Seed Realm Martial Cultivator, tell me, if I were to rebuild the Lingxiao Palace and take charge of the Lingxiao Shengjing, do you think the people of the world would still believe me?"
Li Weiyi said, "I don't know. I didn't experience Xiao Tian Order, nor did any of my relatives die in the war."
Yu Yaozi stopped, turned around, and looked coldly at Li Weiyi, who was lagging behind in the distance. "In front of this Palace Master, no one dares to be as presumptuous as you."
Li Weiyi said, "I wouldn't dare to be presumptuous; I'm just telling the truth. The Great Palace Master must learn to face reality. The former Lingxiao Shengjing is gone forever. The Mist Son of Heaven can regain control of Lingxiao, but you cannot. Unless..."
"Unless what?" she asked.
Li Weiyi said, "Unless you can do what you did a thousand years ago, alone with your sword, and carve out a new realm of life from the Netherworld of the Departed."
"That makes sense. I possess the <Bright Star Book>, which allows me to completely subdue the Netherworld, reopen the world, and establish an even more glorious living realm," said Yu Yaozi.
