Outside the Wuliang Poison Valley, Ling Yi and Bai Suzhen walked side by side.
Ling Yi watched as Bai Suzhen ate small cakes one by one, her cheeks puffed out in cuteness, and felt his romantic idealism shatter.
Of course, these little cakes are not poisonous.
Instead, they were genuine, delicious snacks, specially made by Huang Rong for Ling Yi, as part of her preparations for this trip to the ice cave.
Huang Rong's poisonous little cakes are quite powerful; although they might not harm Bai Suzhen, they would definitely make her feel unwell.
However, now that Ling Yi has the Ice Silkworm and Little Poison Maiden, she can go offline and become a full-time cook.
After stuffing the last bite of cake into her mouth, Bai Suzhen stretched contentedly, displaying her perfect figure to the fullest.
However, Ling Yi's focus was on Bai Suzhen's clothes.
Clearly, her dress was no ordinary garment; it had remained intact for centuries without a single scratch, a feat impossible to achieve with ordinary materials.
At this moment, Bai Suzhen threw a red ball to Ling Yi.
Ling Yi instinctively caught it; it looked like an ordinary embroidered ball, and felt like silk to the touch.
"This is the God Stone. I have already touched the imprint of my will on it. You can imprint your own will on it and then you can use it," Bai Suzhen said.
Ling Yi scratched his head. "Mind imprint? How do I do that?"
The idea of imprinting one's mind sounds incredibly sophisticated, but Ling Yi doesn't understand it!
"Yes, you just need to try to drive it with your Spiritual Sense sense and will. Once you successfully drive it, the imprint is successful. It's not difficult. You'll understand after trying a few times."
So, what should we do?
Fine, since Bai Suzhen said to try it a few times, then I'll try it a few times.
"Are you planning to return to Feng Yun Domain?" Ling Yi asked.
"Yes, Xu Xian is still alive. I'm going back to take revenge."
"Is Xu Xian strong?" Ling Yi asked.
"Having learned the Heaven-Shifting Divine Art and survived for hundreds of years, even if you're a piece of trash, you should have reached the Grand Master Realm by now!" Bai Suzhen's voice was full of Taunt.
The Heaven-Shifting Divine Art? Since it's a technique from the God of Immortal God of Longevity that grants Longevity, theoretically, as long as one constantly changes heads, one can achieve eternal life?
There are quite a few ways to achieve Longevity in this world.
"Why isn't it the Land Immortal Realm?"
Bai Suzhen scoffed, "He feels guilty and has long harbored inner demons. He wants to Intent Condensation without eliminating those demons? Hah!"
"If you feel guilty, can't you enter the Condensed Intent Realm?" Ling Yi asked curiously.
"According to Buddhist School teachings, only by resolving all Karma can one Intent Condensation. Although I don't like Buddhist School, this Buddhist School explanation is the most accurate."
"If you wish to reach the Condensed Intent Realm in the future, you must remember this."
"Avoid karmic Karma?" Ling Yi shook his head. As long as you're human, how can you avoid karmic Karma?
Ling Yi felt that this statement was very inaccurate.
Take Di Shitian, for example. He's lived for thousands of years; what bad things hasn't he done?
They're stirring up trouble in all sorts of underhanded ways.
It could be said that he caused all the Karma in the entire Feng Yun Domain, yet he's still not Land Immortal?
However, thinking about these things was useless for Ling Yi.
In any case, he'll most likely never reach the Land Immortal Realm in his lifetime.
Although his cultivation level couldn't be improved, it didn't mean Ling Yi wasn't curious about those powerful techniques.
Bai Suzhen glanced at Ling Yi, then floated up slowly like Fairy. She couldn't wait to go back and take her revenge.
" Ling Yi, thank you for saving me. When I return from the Feng Yun Domain, I will definitely present you with a generous gift."
"No need, it's just a transaction," Ling Yi said, holding up the embroidered ball in his hand.
Bai Suzhen didn't say much.
Is it just a transaction?
But for Bai Suzhen, it was not so.
If Ling Yi hadn't appeared, she would have died within two or three months at most.
She endured for hundreds of years; if it weren't for the hatred in her heart, she would have long since collapsed and her soul would have been scattered.
However, facing imminent death, the feeling of being utterly helpless and desperate filled Bai Suzhen with utter despair, as if she had fallen into Abyss.
Ling Yi's appearance was like a ray of light suddenly appearing in Bai Suzhen's extreme despair.
In Bai Suzhen's eyes, a mere God Stone was far from enough.
"Little one, until we meet again!" Bai Suzhen gave Ling Yi a deep look!
Ling Yi rolled his eyes. "Until we meet again!"
"See you later" is fine, but why add "little one"? Are we little? We're over 30 years old across two lifetimes!
After Bai Suzhen disappeared, Ling Yi checked the Map in his mind, and his figure vanished as well.
When they reappeared, they were already ten miles away at the foot of a cliff.
Before us lies a stone gate cave, which must be the Legend Mount Wuliang Cave.
Ling Yi stepped inside, and came out again just a few minutes later.
The inside was long gone.
Forget about the Northern Darkness Divine Art Graceful Steps upon the Waves; even that statue is gone.
Ling Yi didn't mind; he was just curious and came to take a look.
With the Map entry, Ling Yi can finally deploy assassins at will within a ten-kilometer radius, and then use the conversion entry to switch positions with the assassins, achieving instantaneous Teleportation at will within a maximum radius of ten kilometers.
Moreover, the Map's functions go far beyond these.
Ling Yi gained a great deal from this trip to the Mount Wuliang Ice Caves.
With all the stats maxed out, the assassin's level also reached level eight, resulting in a massive increase in strength.
Ling Yi finally had the confidence to rescue Ling Shuang.
Meanwhile, Dali City, Ling Yi's manor was surrounded by thousands of elite soldiers from the Dali Kingdom.
These thousands of elite soldiers from the Dali Kingdom were mostly archers.
Behind the archers were ten elevated siege crossbows.
Each of his siege crossbows was over ten meters long and was made of fine iron and solid wood.
The crossbow bolts, resembling javelins, were already installed and ready to be fired.
Behind the siege crossbow was a makeshift high platform.
On the high platform, Murong Fu sat in the main seat, his phoenix eyes slightly narrowed as he looked in the direction of the manor.
A Tibetan monk dressed in a red robe sat next to Murong Fu.
"It seems Ling Yi has died in the ice cave," Murong Fu said with some disappointment.
"Hmph, I've wasted Half Moon my time with you for nothing," the Tibetan monk said, equally dissatisfied.
"Master, if we cooperate, you will not suffer any loss, since you have already obtained the Six Meridian Divine Sword, haven't you?"
"I must thank you for your scheming; otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to capture Duan Yu so easily, and use that brat as Duan Yu to obtain the One Yang Finger and the Six Meridian Divine Sword." The Tibetan monk did not refute this.
He was simply dissatisfied with waiting for Half Moon without getting anything in return.
"We didn't see Ling Yi at Mount Wuliang. He must have really died in the ice cave. It's such a pity about his entire legacy," Murong Fu said with some disappointment.
"Then let's just kill these women and be done with it. This humble monk has other matters to attend to, so I won't waste my time with you here." The Tibetan monk was known for his fiery temper.
Now that Half Moon has been wasted, I'm already impatient.
But Murong Fu still had some hesitation in his heart.
Yaoyue Murong Fu didn't care whether Yaoyue and the others lived or died, but Wang Yuyan was still in the manor.
"What, you can't bear to part with your cousin?" the Tibetan monk Taunt.
"Your cousin betrayed you long ago, and her heart probably belongs to another. Besides, you now control the Dali Kingdom. As long as you operate cautiously, success won't be difficult. She's just a woman; why bother with her?"
Murong Fu's expression twisted slightly.
In truth, the reason Wang Yuyan betrayed him was entirely her own doing.
To Intimidation Yaoyue, Murong Fu Ignore Wang Yuyan's life or death and deployed siege crossbows.
This siege crossbow was an absolute weapon of mass destruction for the Dali Kingdom.
Even Grandmaster would be severely injured if hit.
However, he underestimated the strength of Yaoyue and Lianxing.
The two women were quite skilled in light Qinggong, and together they changed the direction of the siege crossbow bolts. Although it looked like a difficult feat, they did manage to do it.
It was precisely because of this that Wang Yuyan and A Zhu were saved from being killed by the siege crossbows.
This is the real reason why Wang Yuyan betrayed him, well, one of the reasons!
Secondly, it was because of Murong Fu's exploitation of them.
About a month ago, Yaoyue sent Wang Yuyan and her two daughters to Duan Zhengchun to be recognized as relatives.
This matter came to the attention of Murong Fu had been secretly observing.
Subsequently, Murong Fu, posing as Wang Yuyan's cousin, successfully made contact with Duan Zhengchun.
It just so happened that the Tibetan monk Jiumozhi was there to challenge, or rather, to seize the Six Meridian Divine Sword.
Murong Fu was indeed quite resourceful; he secretly found Jiumozhi and persuaded Jiumozhi to cooperate with him in just a few words.
Jiumozhi wanted the Six Meridian Divine Sword and the One Yang Finger Divine Skill, while Murong Fu wanted to take over Dali.
So they kidnapped Duan Yu, Duan Zhengchun, and Dao Baifeng together.
Using Wang Yuyan and A Zhu's identities, they entered the backyard of the Dali royal palace and poisoned all the high-ranking officials of the Dali Kingdom with the Sorrowful Crisp Breeze".
They temporarily took control of the Dali Kingdom.
Of course, some methods will be needed to completely control the Dali Kingdom.
However, given the current situation, it's not impossible if Murong Fu manages things properly.
If Murong Fu was merely using Wang Yuyan, given Wang Yuyan 'Wang Yuyan character of being a naive and love-struck woman, she wouldn't have completely betrayed Murong Fu.
But during this process, Duan Yu suddenly displayed his Duan Yu and got into a fight with Murong Fu.
After unleashing his full Duan Yu, Duan Yu's strength exploded, causing Murong Fu to suffer a series of defeats and nearly die.
In an attempt to turn the tide of the battle, Murong Fu actually attacked Wang Yuyan directly.
This made Duan Yu timid and hesitant, and he was eventually defeated by Murong Fu, severely injured, and his martial arts were crippled before he was imprisoned.
It was because of this incident that Wang Yuyan finally saw through Murong Fu's true colors. That very night, she took A Zhu and A Bi and fled the Dali Palace.
Murong Fu was furious when he found out and personally gave chase, but he happened to run into the three women, Yaoyue were out shopping.
Yaoyue easily defeated Murong Fu and brought Wang Yuyan and the others back to the manor.
After that, Murong Fu seized the military tally from Duan Zhengchun, mobilized the elite troops of the Dali Kingdom, and besieged the manor.
The reason they surrounded them without killing them was partly because Yaoyue and Lianxing too fierce.
If they run away, Murong Fu won't be able to stop them.
But while Yaoyue and Lianxing could run away, Huang Rong and the others couldn't.
With the added threat of siege crossbows, once the manor is besieged for a period of time and runs out of food and water, it can be easily taken over.
On the other hand, it was naturally to wait for Ling Yi to come out of the ice cave.
