Chapter 219: Moonlight Over Kunlun

Chapter 219: Moonlight Over Kunlun

“Yes. The demon race has existed since time immemorial, but has difficulty reproducing, so descendents with rich bloodlines must intermarry. The Master of White Night Paradise wants to marry me off to Black Tortoise Paradise, but I’m not willing.”

When Chu Luo heard this, he suddenly felt a headache coming on. “Just now, I was only—”

“Only what? Don’t tell me you’re not going to take responsibility after taking advantage of me?” the girl in the jade-colored dress said, cutting him off. Demonic power began to revolve in her palm, pulsing dangerously.

At that moment, a high-ranking provincial officer who was overseeing the harvesting of the Icy Silkworm Illusion Essence approached, interrupting their conversation. They gave the girl a quizzical glance, then said respectfully, “Lord Chu, the harvesting of the Icy Silkworm Illusion Essence is complete.”

The events that occurred not long ago had happened too far away from the mortals for them to sense what was happening. They only heard an explosion earlier, but they didn’t dare to ask about it. These people of the presiding sect were known to be extremely cruel, and treated mortals like them no differently from livestock.

The previous situation where there was no tribute and the Province was even buying spiritual items from the mortals was already no more. Things had returned to how they were in the past, with a harsh 80% tribute being levied on the goods the mortals produced. Under this ice-cold suppression, the people of the Anxi Province came to experience the hardship only their ancestors had once gone through.

As for the matter regarding their Spiritual Root Sequences… Xu Disheng had never cared about this.

Having lived through these relaxing times, any exceptional Spiritual Roots that should have emerged due to these conditions would have already appeared by this point. Even if they didn’t appear yet, they wouldn’t suddenly appear within these 10 years.

.

“Okay, you can leave then,” Chu Luo instructed, taking the large basket of Icy Silkworm Illusion Essence from the officer and storing it in his interspatial ring.

“As you command, Lord Chu,” the provincial officer said before leaving.

The soldiers didn’t seem to be as afraid of Chu Luo as they were of the other ‘lords’. Instead, they held a hint of respect for him.

The other lords had way too much free time on their hands, and many of them found pleasure in slaughtering the ordinary civilians. Only Lord Chu never participated in this and had even saved the innocent provincial soldiers several times, earning their deep gratitude.

“Not good! I got too caught up with things here. The people of White Night Paradise should have already caught on that I sneaked out. They’re definitely going to give chase!” the girl in the jade-colored dress exclaimed anxiously, repeatedly tugging on Chu Luo’s sleeve the moment she remembered what situation she was in.

Perhaps even she herself didn’t realize that subconsciously, she was trying to depend on Chu Luo, who was only at the Sea of Qi stage.

Chu Luo was still thinking about the fact that he had activated his Cloud Abyss Peak jade identity tablet not too long ago. Xu Disheng had already been notified, and he explicitly said not to look for him if there were no problems, and now, he…

“What is your name?” Chu Luo said, his tone unexpectedly already sounding resolute.

“Bai Yingxiu.”

There were no signs of the girl’s Dao Foundation stage level demon aura, and her voice was soft and cute.

“Come with me then. I will tell the Sacred Son about this and beg him to help protect you.”

Chu Luo wasn’t sure if Xu Disheng would interfere with this matter, but Chu Luo had already made up his mind. Even if Xu Disheng threw all regard for their shared roots in the Chu Territory out the window, he would still insist that Xu Disheng at least ensure Bai Yingxiu’s safety.

Ming Ruoyun no longer existed in the Human Realm. Chu Luo didn’t want Bai Yingxiu to follow in her footsteps.

But what was strange was that Chu Luo had already completely forgotten about the existence of Ma Chen. Did the resolute look in his eyes and the feeling he held inside really originate from his own heart?

… …

Meanwhile, in the Quicksand Earth Territory at the edge of the Luo River, in White Night Paradise…

A water serpent, around a hundred meters long, shot out of the surface of the river at the border of the Anxi Province, sending massive waves rolling in its wake.

Several Transformation stage demon race beings followed closely behind, standing in the air behind the enormous water serpent.

“Second Young Master, the scent of the aura suggests that Bai Yingxiu has proceeded deeper into the Shan Mountain Earth Territory,” one of the demon race said with an air of certainty, looking off toward the Anxi Province.

The water serpent’s body morphed into the figure of a youth dressed in a black robe. After pondering for a moment, he said, “This place is not only the border of our White Night Paradise, but it’s also the border of the Shan Mountain Earth Territory’s Shangqing Sacred Sect.”

A transformation stage demon came forward and said respectfully, “Second Young Master, the rules of the paradise state that we cannot enter the lands under the jurisdiction of the Shangqing Sacred Sect.”

The black-robed youth who the group of demons referred to as ‘Second Young Master’ let out a sigh and said, “I don’t know how Bai Yingxiu caught wind of it, but her running away actually almost ruined the Paradise Master’s grand plan. I will go into the Shan Mountain Earth Territory alone and search for her. If I’m not able to pick up on her trail then we’ll have no choice but to give up. Your demonic auras are all too conspicuous, so it would just be a bad idea if we all went together. You all should head back first.”

“As you wish, Second Young Master.”

… …

Xu Disheng stood up and stored the Profound Resonance Drum that he was carrying away.

The Psychic Magic Treasure had been given to him by the Peak Master of Clearheart Peak as a reward for him ascending to the rank of Sacred Son. It was incredibly powerful, and just like the White Moon Garment, it was just short of being a Profound Magic Treasure ranked item.

The White Moon Garment had great origins, possessing two forms that it could change between—the Golden Moon Garment and the White Moon Garment.

The technique imbued in it was extremely strong. It was called Moonlight Over Kunlun, which included three moves: Golden Moon Demolishing the Shadows, Boundless White Moon, and Moonlight Over Kunlun.

Kunlun was the sacred mountain that was rumored to exist in the Heavenly Court. This move, Moonlight over Kunlun, was created by an almighty powerhouse who had the fortune to glimpse a phantom image of the sacred Kunlun Mountain. The power of this move was extraordinary!

When the Clearheart Peak Master, Chen Xunming, delivered Primordial Lord Kunxu’s decree, appointing Xu Disheng as a Sacred Son, this Psychic Magic Treasure had transformed from a golden scroll into its current appearance. In other words, it was personally bestowed to him by Primordial Lord Kunxu, one of the three Yuluo Realm Masters. There was deeper meaning behind him receiving it.

Back when Xu Disheng had blocked Spirit Controlling Primordial Lord’s attack, practically all of his Magic Treasures had been destroyed. The Profound Resonance Drum came with many marvelous techniques, which meant that Xu Disheng was now countless times stronger than he was when he was at the Sea of Qi stage.

He looked over at his Peak Master token, which was emitting a black glow, and his brows furrowed.

In every Cloud Abyss Peak disciple’s jade identity tablet was a hidden array that could be activated, meant to be used to request aid in a crisis. The signal would be sent to the Peak Master, who would then be able to sense it.

When Xu Disheng was still part of Morning Dew Peak, he had never used this array before. This was because Peak Masters would normally erase this array from the Peak Master token, and Lu Changge, the Peak Master of Morning Dew Peak, was naturally no exception to this.

Xu Disheng, on the other hand, hadn’t destroyed the array. After all, if he had done this when Cloud Abyss Peak was first established, it would show complete disregard for the disciples, which wouldn’t draw any good impressions from the higher ups in authority.

However, He Qiwen, and now Chu Luo, were treating the array like some kind of plaything to be easily activated at a moment’s notice, leaving Xu Disheng feeling annoyed beyond comparison.

At that moment, Xu Disheng picked up the Peak Master token and rotated his Shangqing profound qi, erasing the array completely.
