Ji Hanhan made a series of arrangements.
Digging deep caves, accumulating vast provisions, stirring up trouble…
The wisdom of the ancestors was played out by him with perfect clarity.
Upon hearing that the place Wang Wanjian had gone to was inhabited by countless agile and delicate fox spirits and shapely, alluring snake demons, Xuanyang's heart ignited with desire. He was eager to go there.
He specially brewed a potent wolfberry tea to present to Ji Mo, hoping to seek true love at the Qingqiu Demon Gate.
Despite his feminine appearance, being more alluring and beautiful than most girls, Xuanyang harbored a deep-seated obsession with finding a partner due to past heartbreak from a deceitful woman.
In the room.
Ji Mo was teaching Yue'er to practice the "Ode to the Dead."
It had to be said that the young girl possessed considerable talent in this area, having mastered the "Ode to the Dead" to a perfect degree. She could now skillfully control the Blue Blood Skeleton Legion as if it were an extension of her own limbs.
The image of a harmless young girl plucking strings while ferocious skeletons surged like a tide was truly inspiring.
Furthermore, with the Blue Blood Skeleton Legion, the Void Sword Sect would have a foundation to stand upon, ensuring that no one would dare to offend them easily, even if he were no longer present.
Of course, the greatest trump card remained the Sky City, but it was best not to use it unless absolutely necessary.
It was a pity that the Land of Buried Gods had been destroyed; otherwise, bringing out the divine corpses from within would have been incredibly satisfying.
"Sir, I brewed you a cup of good tea myself. Please drink it while it's hot."
Xuanyang knocked and entered, a fawning smile on his face. It was obvious to everyone that his intentions were impure.
Ji Mo initially thought his student was thoughtful and showed excellent filial piety and respect for his teacher. However, when he discovered that the wolfberries were more abundant than the water, his entire face darkened.
What was the meaning of this?
Who was he looking down upon?
"Brother Ji, why do you like such strong wolfberry tea? Are you weak?"
Yue'er asked with a puzzled expression.
She had heard that only those whose bodies were depleted or whose kidneys were failing drank wolfberry tea. Why had Brother Ji developed such a problem at such a young age?
Ji Mo's face darkened further as he retorted, "How could I be weak? I'm super strong, alright!"
Although his body indeed lacked energy and his evolution progress was less than 30%, he absolutely refused to admit he was weak, striving to maintain his masculine dignity.
"Sir is naturally the strongest, unmatched by anyone. The wolfberry tea prepared by your student, along with Wang Wanjian's vitality pills, must have played a significant role. Now, you cannot favor him exclusively by rewarding only Old Wang with a trip to the Qingqiu Demon Gate for enjoyment. I also wish to go there to practice the 'bold, dark-hearted, and thick-skinned' method of wooing girls that you once taught me."
Xuanyang's face was filled with eagerness, feeling neglected and actively seeking benefits.
He had been under pressure from the Nine Transformations Heavenly Silkworm to cultivate diligently for the past period. Now that he had become a Heavenly Immortal with greatly increased strength, it was time for a balance between work and rest, and to relax properly.
Ji Hanhan's face darkened further. Could he not be more mindful of the occasion with Yue'er present?
He felt embarrassed to admit that his true intention was to steer Wang Wanjian straight. He vaguely explained, "Wanjian's trip is not for pleasure, but for cultivation, to comprehend the profound mysteries of the Great Dao."
After speaking, without giving Xuanyang a chance to say more, he directly kicked him out.
Xuanyang, treated with such double standards, felt deeply hurt. Cultivating among a den of foxes? Who was he trying to fool?
Could it be the art of dual cultivation!
But Wang Wanjian was as straight as a blade, completely oblivious to romance. Wasn't that a waste?
In the end, unable to decipher the reason, he couldn't help but send a message to Wang Wanjian, inquiring about his cultivation progress.
"If you have difficulties, I will help. I live next door, my name is Wang!"
Wang Wanjian, a model youth, had been in Qingqiu for several days. He was utterly bewildered, unable to understand Ji Mo's deeper intentions in sending him there. He had not discovered any opportunities to break through his bottlenecks.
Fortunately, he was Ji Mo's student and was naturally honest and kind, always willing to help the demon immortals of Qingqiu. As a result, he received an extremely warm reception.
One day, he suddenly received a message from Xuanyang.
"What! Sir wants me to come here to comprehend the profound mysteries of the Great Dao!"
Wang Wanjian's expression was one of deep dejection, feeling he had failed to live up to Ji Mo's earnest intentions.
He lamented his poor talent and low comprehension. For days, he had been like a headless fly, with no clue whatsoever.
"I am a foolish student. Since Sir sent me here, there must be a profound meaning. How can I not betray Sir's cultivation?"
Wang Wanjian scratched his head and paced through Qingqiu, deep in thought.
In a secluded valley.
Two figures, a man and a woman, hid within, plotting.
The woman was scantily clad, with a very voluptuous figure.
Someone had once described her as: a young girl of sixteen with a body like soft jade, a sword at her waist to slay mortals; though no heads fell, she secretly withered your bones.
The men who had fallen for her charms numbered no less than eight hundred, if not a thousand. With a heart of a viper and unparalleled malice.
She was Chi Mei of the Scarlet Serpent tribe, the beautiful snake demon who had almost left Sima Hongfeng bedridden.
"Chi Yi, give up. I will never collude with you and hint at Tu Shan Shushu."
Chi Mei shouted sternly, righteously refusing the man's request.
Although the Scarlet Serpent tribe had been destroyed by Ji Mo and the Tu Shan lineage, she harbored no great resentment. Moreover, Tu Shan Shushu treated her very well now and held her in high regard. She would not betray her benefactor.
"Chi Mei, are you going to betray your ancestors? Think about how the tribal chief died and how many of our kin perished at Tu Shan Shushu's hands. We should join forces and seek revenge. Furthermore, I'm not afraid to tell you, there is an Immortal Emperor willing to help us avenge ourselves."
Chi Yi continued to coerce her, unleashing his powerful aura. "That Immortal Emperor is all-knowing. Following him brings immense benefits. Previously, I was only at the early stage of Golden Immortal realm, but now I have advanced to the peak of Golden Immortal realm. If you agree to join, you will not be shortchanged. Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite."
At this point, if she refused, she would die. Chi Yi would not let Chi Mei go easily.
"Chi Yi, I advise you to turn back while you still can and not do anything foolish. What does it matter if he is an Immortal Emperor? That Mr. Ji is unfathomable. If he dares to lay a hand on Qingqiu, he will surely face dire consequences."
Chi Mei had witnessed Ji Mo's methods. Even when facing an Immortal Emperor, she dared not betray Tu Shan Shushu, lest she face a terribly grim fate.
"Stubborn and unyielding, then I cannot spare you."
Seeing Chi Mei's utter lack of sense, Chi Yi's ferocity erupted, his face filled with murderous intent.
He ferociously attacked, intending to silence her.
"Ah…"
A painful scream echoed, which Wang Wanjian happened to hear.
Without a second thought, he immediately rushed into the valley.
He was met with the sight of a beautiful woman, front and back perfectly proportioned, covered in blood, her face pale with fear as she fled.
"Miss, what happened?"
Wang Wanjian stepped forward, steadying the staggering Chi Mei, and inquired about the situation.
Qingqiu had always been peaceful; how could such a thing occur?
"Brother Wang, go, quickly go and tell Mr. Ji that someone is targeting Qingqiu."
Chi Mei, having interacted with Wang Wanjian before, anxiously revealed the inside story.
