Even when the city defense encountered attacks from the Demon Dao, handling them was now quite effortless.
Because within the Alchemy Square, there were more forces that could be mobilized.
As for Liu Yuan’s demon-hunting squad, they had been replenished once again.
However, this ti, there were no people from the dicine King Valley.
The remaining northern Corpse Transporting Mountain and Spirit Control Sect sent out another Peak Foundation Establishnt Cultivator.
They occasionally ventured out, perhaps due to past experiences, so they acted more cautiously.
In any case, for most of the next half year, nothing else went wrong.
Yet, in such circumstances, Ji Yuan increasingly felt sothing was amiss.
Because now this world... was too peaceful.
Yes, it was too peaceful.
Shang Dong clearly had given up Shang Mountain, letting the Demon Dao in.
But the result?
The Demon Dao indeed ca in.
Now it had been almost a year since they ca in, yet they hadn’t done anything major.
They hadn’t even broken into one of the many markets, let alone done sothing as catastrophic as destroying one of the Six Sects.
The Demon Dao of the entire Shangxi seed to be playing house.
Completely lacking the montum when attacking Shang Mountain before.
Does this make sense?
Ji Yuan discussed with Liu Yuan and Li Changhe, and the three of them ca to the unanimous conclusion that... the Demon Dao was holding in for sothing big.
They were preparing for a big move.
But what exactly it was, was unknown.
Since Ji Yuan and the others could think of this, let alone other cultivators in the world.
They were all waiting, or rather... investigating.
To see what kind of huge play the Demon Dao was preparing.
...
On that day.
The sky was clear and bright.
Shang Dong, midstream of the Starfall River, on the south bank, by an ordinary small river.
Lu Corpse, who arrived early, was already fishing there.
The remaining Kong Xifeng had a sullen face, saying nothing.
From the Sword Ruins ca Xu Sheng again, as the One Sword Master, the number one cultivator of Shang Dong, had never left the Sword Ruins even for a step.
"Old lady, is your Water Dragon Sect alright? I always feel that the Demon Dao will likely target one of our six sects this ti, just don’t know who they’re eyeing."
Lu Corpse had been fishing for a long ti, but not a single fish took the bait, so he turned around and made so small talk.
"Heh, thanks to you, Lu Corpse, everything is fine."
As soon as Kong Xifeng opened her mouth, Lu Corpse lost his desire to speak, and instead looked towards Xu Sheng, sitting cross-legged on a giant rock, eyes closed in ditation.
"Xu Daoist, how is your Sword Ruins? I heard you’ve been the most under attack from the Demon Dao."
Xu Sheng spoke with his eyes still closed.
"The Sword Ruins has always been like this, long accustod."
Lu Corpse slightly nodded, "I wonder if anyone went to inform i Manor, their Shang Court hasn’t had any news recently, could it be they’ve joined with those people from Shangxi?"
"Heh, don’t worry, even if your Corpse Transporting Mountain and Shangxi’s Demon Dao united, our Shang Court would never join them."
A mocking voice ca from beneath the water.
Upon hearing this, Lu Corpse glared and said, "You know it, now get out, damn it, I’ve been fishing for half a day and you ssed it all up!"
i Manor appeared out of thin air, clapping his hands.
"If I can’t catch one while you fish, neither can you."
Having said that, he turned to look northward.
Ten Spirits Ancestor had arrived.
He was an ordinary-looking man, crossing the water surface, and finally landed in front of them, smiling:
"For the past few hundred years, it’s been hard for us to et each other, but now we’ve t twice in three years."
After that, another person ca from the south.
Lady of Joy was still dressed provocatively, and as soon as she appeared she rolled her eyes at i Manor.
"You cad, you didn’t even wait for on the way."
i Manor: "Haha."
"What has the old useless dicine King been up to, clearly he’s the nearest, yet he’s the last to arrive."
Kong Xifeng, as always, opened her mouth and went full fire mode.
"Did he die in so corner?"
"The world is so chaotic now, you old lady better accumulate so virtue."
Ten Spirits Ancestor couldn’t stand it anymore and retorted.
Thus making Kong Xifeng unable to sit still.
But before she could reply, Xu Sheng, who had been sitting cross-legged on the giant rock with closed eyes, suddenly opened them.
"It’s coming!"
Having said that, he quickly turned his head to the south.
A white light flickering in the sky, at first far on the horizon, a figure quickly arrived close by.
The dicine King... had arrived.
Everyone who saw him was stunned.
Even Kong Xifeng, who most wanted to curse him, was now looking at him with disbelief.
"Old dicine Dog? What happened to you?"
Kong Xifeng may curse, but seeing the dicine King beco like this, she was genuinely worried.
Lu Corpse urgently asked as well:
"Could it be the Blood Luo King ca? Or the White Bone Demon Monarch, did you fight with them?"
It was no wonder they were shocked, after all, the dicine King looked... incredibly old.
Originally, the oldest among them was Kong Xifeng, who was nearing her end.
Yet now, the oldest one seed to be the dicine King.
Head full of white hair, wrinkles on his face that looked like deep grooves, his body bent as he walked, as if he could fall over at any mont.
Unlike his previous look of white hair but youthful appearance, full of vitality, there was a world of difference now.
And this change happened in just a few years.
For a Nascent Soul Cultivator, a few years... really is just the ti of a nap.
The dicine King felt everyone’s gaze, slowly shook his head, and finally sat down on the sand beside them.
"It’s nothing, continue with your discussion."
"Impossible, could it really be those from Shangxi acted against you?"
