Sage of Humanity Chapter 921 919: Understanding and Considerate Good Junior S

"Lu Yiye, for this trip you need to disguise a bit. After all, your current look is quite famous on our side, so you'd better impersonate Niu ng." Ying Wuji reminded him.

Nian Yuexian couldn't help but be puzzled, "Niu ng?"

Lu Ye explained, "It's my other identity."

Nian Yuexian understood, with a smile at the corner of her eyes.

When traveling, who doesn't have another identity? Just like her na, Water Fairy, there are tis when Lu Ye transforms into Niu ng.

Going with the flow, he put away the Boulder Mountain Saber. However, the Crimson Dragon Battle Suit complented Lu Ye's physique, making him look unlike a magic cultivator, but it didn't matter; not all magic cultivators in the Nine Provinces wear wide-sleeved robes. There are always so who wear clothes similar in style to the Crimson Dragon Battle Suit.

There wasn't much to prepare. Ying Wuji asked, "Where are we headed?"

He also ca to terms with it in his heart; since resistance was futile, cooperating sincerely was the only option. Moreover, having already obtained three drops of Soul Cleansing Water, the gains were massive.

"Liyuan!" Lu Ye reported the destination of this trip.

Ying Wuji's eyebrows furrowed, "That's not close."

Silently marveling at the audacity of these two, wanting to venture deep into Liyuan, no wonder they needed him as part of their team, evidently aiming to use his identity as a Ten Thousand Demons Ridge cultivator to clear obstacles for them along the way.

He also felt relieved; Liyuan's broad expanse, though not ideal in environnt, ant no sect from Ten Thousand Demons Ridge was established there, implying Lu Yiye wasn't looking to cause trouble for soone there.

That made things much easier.

"Let's go then, but let say upfront, on the way, both of you need to follow my instructions and avoid any extre actions. Otherwise, I will risk my life to leak your whereabouts."

"Don't worry, now it's we who should be concerned."

Ying Wuji thought, indeed that's true. He summoned his Flying Spirit Artifact and swiftly landed on it.

Lu Ye summoned his spirit ark, but before he could leap onto it, Nian Yuexian had already seated herself on it.

Lu Ye was montarily stunned, considering that Nian Yuexian wasn't particularly suited to channeling spirit force at the mont, he left her be.

Soon after, the two artifacts transford into flowing light, soaring skyward in the direction of Liyuan.

Having progressed several hundred miles, they had entered the domain of the Ten Thousand Demons Ridge's sphere of influence, soon encountering a patrol squad from the Ten Thousand Demons Ridge.

"It's a patrol from Gushan City, I'll go negotiate, don't do anything rash," Ying Wuji said briefly, then proceeded straight ahead.

Lu Ye directed his spirit ark to halt in place, fingers lightly caressing, while Nian Yuexian watched Ying Wuji's back with her beautiful eyes, poised to strike with thunderbolt if anything went awry.

A short distance away, Ying Wuji spoke a few simple words to the patrol squad, and the patrol squad then departed.

"Let's go." Ying Wuji called out.

Lu Ye steered his spirit ark to follow.

They continued forward.

Occasionally encountering local checkpoint patrol teams along the way, Ying Wuji handled matters each ti, ensuring smooth progress.

"This guide is rather reliable. Senior Brother, what leverage do you have over him?" Nian Yuexian turned to Lu Ye.

Because she was seated and Lu Ye was standing, Nian Yuexian's posture was sowhat skewed, head tilted up, plus her crisp, playful tone added a cute charm.

Lu Ye felt as if on pins and needles, softly saying, "Master..."

What's wrong with this woman? Wearing a mask gives the impression she's a completely different person.

"What master or servant, this trip you're Senior Brother Niu ng, I'm Junior Sister Water Fairy." Behind the mask, Nian Yuexian playfully glanced at Lu Ye.

Alluring indeed!

If you say so, then I guess...

Lu Ye felt resigned.

Ying Wuji's cooperation is owed first to the rit of the three drops of Soul Cleansing Water, and secondly, as he ntioned, during their ti on the Unparalleled Continent, Lu Ye saved his life twice. Ying Wuji, hailing from a top sect, isn't one to forget favors.

But strictly speaking, it was his assessnt that this trip, Lu Ye likely wouldn't do anything harmful to the Ten Thousand Demons Ridge, otherwise he wouldn't be so cooperative.

After passing several layers of patrol checkpoints, ahead, the number of Ten Thousand Demons Ridge patrol teams decreased, as they had now penetrated deep into the heart of Ten Thousand Demons Ridge's territory in Bingzhou.

With nightfall, the three found a sheltered spot to rest.

Ying Wuji lit a bonfire, roasting beast at, while Lu Ye set up a protective array nearby. Upon returning, he found Nian Yuexian had already started eating.

Due to the impracticality of removing the mask, she simply lifted it slightly while eating, yet her speed of consumption was quick.

Moreover, Ying Wuji seed to have told her sothing that made her laugh continuously.

From the viewpoint of Lu Ye, coming back from array setup and witnessing this scene, he couldn't help but feel anxious for Ying Wuji, fearing that he might accidentally say sothing inappropriate and find himself killed by Nian Yuexian.

"Senior Brother, for you!" Nian Yuexian held a roasted piece of beast at, offering it to Lu Ye who had returned.

Although she'd repeatedly called him Senior Brother along the way and he had already reminded himself to get used to her disguise, Lu Ye's action of taking the at remained sowhat stiff.

"Senior Brother, you guys have had so many interesting experiences together, why haven't I heard about them before?"

Ying Wuji grumbled, "What's so interesting? It's clearly him bullying people all the ti."

"And you don't resist?" Nian Yuexian tilted her head, looking at Ying Wuji with an innocent expression.

Ying Wuji's expression was awkward, "Can't beat him..."

Nian Yuexian raised her hand and patted Ying Wuji's shoulder, speaking earnestly, "Then you must cultivate diligently, strive to defeat my Senior Brother soon, and vent your grievances."

Ying Wuji was deeply moved, finally eting soone who understood his difficulties.

And it was a female cultivator!

Darn it, why do all the good things in the world happen to Lu Yiye, and why don't I have such an understanding junior sister!

At night, the two took turns keeping watch and continued on at dawn.

With the guidance of the ten-part map, and with Ying Wuji, a Core Disciple of the Senluo Hall in Bingzhou, acting as their guide, the journey went smoothly. Occasionally, they encountered one or two Ten Thousand Demons Ridge cultivators flying by, but Ying Wuji dealt with them.

This thod was much more efficient and safer than Nian Yuexian originally planning to sneak in with Lu Ye.

Ti flew by, and three days later.

A vast plain entered the view of the three.

Liyuan, they had arrived!

The entire area of Liyuan was enormous, but due to its lack of resources, such as minerals or other cultivation resources, no sect had ever established their headquarters there since ancient tis.

According to the ten-part map, Liyuan occupied nearly a tenth of the land of the Ten Thousand Demons Ridge in Bingzhou, showing its vastness.

The wind blew the grass low.

The three looked ahead together, and the atmosphere was inexplicably heavy.

Ying Wuji said, "I guess, if I want to leave now, you definitely won't allow it."

"Keep up!" Lu Ye couldn't be bothered to argue, controlling his spirit ark to glide forward. Ying Wuji sighed and resigned himself to his fate.

Although they had reached Liyuan, he knew clearly that Lu Yiye wouldn't just let him leave like that. He didn't know what Lu Ye and his senior sister wanted to do, but letting him go now posed a risk of leaking information.

Moreover, who knew if they wouldn't encounter more Ten Thousand Demons Ridge cultivators ahead, at which point he'd still have to deal with them.

They continued onward, and soon, Lu Ye noticed so abnormalities below and frowned, "Was there a war here before?"

Along the way, many places bore traces of past battles, and these traces seed aged, not leftover from recent tis.

The remnants of battle covered a vast area, indicating that if a war had erupted here, it was definitely not a minor skirmish.

"Have you not heard of the battle of Liyuan thirty-eight years ago?" Ying Wuji looked at Lu Ye curiously, puzzled as to why he hadn't heard of it.

"No," Lu Ye shook his head.

"That's odd. You're a disciple of the Righteous Blood Sect. How could you not know?"

"What does that have to do with being a Righteous Blood Sect disciple?" Lu Ye frowned, vaguely suspecting sothing.

"Because Liyuan is the burial ground of your renowned senior brother! Back then, millions of cultivators from both major camps fought a brutal battle here..."

Ying Wuji recounted the story, while Lu Ye listened quietly, glancing at Nian Yuexian sitting composedly before him.

No wonder Nian Yuexian had been silent since they entered Liyuan.

"You must know that Bingzhou had fallen completely under the control of your Haotian Alliance, but since the battle of Liyuan, half of Bingzhou has returned under the Ten Thousand Demons Ridge's control. If not for your Haotian Alliance quickly establishing a defense line, the entire Bingzhou might be under the Ten Thousand Demons Ridge, leaving nothing for your Haotian Alliance."

This was the first ti Lu Ye had heard about these things; no one had ever ntioned it to him before. Mainly in the Righteous Blood Sect, above him were only the sect master and Senior Sister Shui Yuan, and usually, when Lu Ye wasn't cultivating, he wasn't at the sect headquarters. Even when he occasionally returned, the sect master was as elusive as a divine dragon, and Shui Yuan only cared about his well-being and any dangers he might've encountered.

Who would tell him about these past events?

According to Shui Yuan's previous words, there was a historical connection between Nian Yuexian and his senior brother. It seed that Nian Yuexian once served under his senior brother's command. Hence, it's evident she was present during the battle of Liyuan. Returning to this place now, it undoubtedly brings back mories.

To accomplish what exactly she ca to Liyuan now, Lu Ye never asked. But it now seed highly likely related to past events.

Could it be that his senior brother left so treasures in Liyuan?

That shouldn't be the case, for if so, Nian Yuexian would've retrieved them long ago and wouldn't have waited until today.

She needs to utilize his strength to achieve her purpose, suggesting she cannot accomplish it alone, implying an elent of risk.

Luckily, now that they had entered Liyuan, whatever Nian Yuexian planned to do would soon be revealed.

Although she remained silent, she was secretly channeling her spirit force, altering the spirit ark's direction at a critical mont, clearly searching for sothing.

Four hours later, a black line beca visible on the horizon ahead.

As they drew closer, Lu Ye realized it was not rely a black line, but a vast, bottomless chasm stretching across Liyuan, as if it were a heavenly abyss dividing the entire Liyuan in two.
