After her identity as a divine beast was revealed, Han Yue became the object of covetousness in the lower immortal realm.
They killed her Daoist partner and tortured and enslaved so many of her children.
Anyone would go crazy if they encountered something like this.
At that time, Han Yue stole the Xuan Tian Sect's magical treasures and killed indiscriminately to avenge her family.
But what followed was a thousand years of imprisonment.
If it weren't for a few people noticing that she was carrying a divine beast with spiritual roots, they might have divided her up right then and there.
Just thinking about her experiences made Zhao Xi feel suffocated.
Now Han Yue has finally left the Wind and Thunder Grassland, but she can no longer find her old enemies.
Over the past thousand years, alchemy in the lower immortal realm has advanced by leaps and bounds. Enemies have either achieved immortality or ascended to the middle immortal realm.
She gave all her cultivation to Linglu, and had no chance to leave.
Yin Wuji is nothing but an opportunist. He has only been the leader of the Wuji Sect for three hundred years, so he could not possibly be the mastermind behind the incident back then.
After he was killed by Hoshino, the only clue to the mastermind behind the scenes was lost, and the Purple Crystallization Pill was unknown and could not be investigated.
"The day before yesterday I flew to the Xuantian Sect, but it's now a barren mountain, not a trace of jade bricks left. I also went back to our home, but the river has changed course, and that place has become a desert... Ha..."
Han Yue held up the wine jar and shook it. There wasn't much wine left. She picked up the jar and poured it into her mouth, but only a few drops came out.
The whole jar of wine was finished just like that.
"chessboard--"
She casually tossed the wine jar on the ground, broke the mud seal on the second jar, and began chugging it down her throat.
It's just homemade rice wine, it's just a bit too rich in flavor, but it's not exactly delicious.
Monks don't get drunk unless they want to.
Zhao Xi, chewing on peanuts, looked at her but did not stop her.
The peanuts were freshly roasted and kept warm on a plate with a fire talisman on it. They were topped with seaweed and sesame seeds, and smelled wonderful.
The marinade for the braised dishes was carefully prepared by her, with ingredients such as Sichuan peppercorns, chili peppers, ginger, scallions, and cooking wine. It was braised to perfection, resulting in tender and juicy meat.
She rested her chin on her hand and asked Hanyue, "Have you observed enough? Is the Hundred Beasts Garden up to standard?"
"Hmm?" Han Yue's slightly tipsy face showed surprise. She laughed a few times, then her bright eyes regained some clarity. "I thought you hadn't noticed~"
Zhao Xi blinked and smiled.
She's run a restaurant for so many years, and she's encountered both genuinely mentally ill people and those who are just pretending to be crazy.
People have far too many misconceptions about mental illness.
Qingluan was never crazy before; she's just testing the Hundred Beasts Garden.
She observed the outer mountain, tested the cubs, and wanted to see how she, as the head of the kindergarten, would protect the cubs.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Xi had already seen through it all.
She was initially worried that the Beast Garden was too comfortable, preventing the little ones from seeing the intrigue and scheming, and Han Yue had done a good job.
If the little ones can't even resist this and will sulk, how will they overcome their inner demons when they form their core?
Zhao Xi smiled and said, "This place is spacious, and there are very few demon cultivators. You can stay here as long as you like. I heard that your primordial spirit was damaged, but you can try to recuperate here. Luo Haiqing's spiritual platform was damaged by someone using drugs, but now it's fine, and he's almost at the Nascent Soul stage. Take it slow, and maybe there will be a turning point!"
Let alone demon cultivators, even the human body is miraculous; many incurable diseases may suddenly be cured.
Han Yue nodded and praised, "The food you made is delicious. Ling Lu has been much more lively these past few days."
Zhao Xi thought, "It's not necessarily all thanks to the food; there are many companions here who can play with him."
My cheeks were burning from drinking, and the gentle evening breeze felt cool on my face.
The planet Venus was very bright in the sky, and the ethereal mist of the array occasionally obscured the night sky.
"It's getting late, and we've almost finished eating, so why don't we..."
I brought Hanyue up to see the scenery; I just wanted to chat with her.
Now that I've said what I wanted to say, there's nothing more to talk about.
Zhao Xi planned to run away, then set up a tent at Lingquan and wait for Lin Che.
Han Yue then brought up a new topic: "Xiao Jia is a good person, but he's too kind-hearted and sentimental. His brothers have changed a long time ago. If he meets that kid again someday, he might foolishly lose his life."
That's hard to say.
Hoshino recently let the demon cultivators go, but he can't guarantee what will happen in the future.
Even Zhao Xi herself didn't know what he would do to her if he caught her again.
Han Yue continued, "The three fire beasts must be five thousand years old."
Zhao Xi asked in surprise, "Huh?"
Han Yue: "Their lifespan is no more than a hundred years. Their cultivation progress is not limited by their spiritual roots, but by old age. There's no need to waste our energy making them cultivate."
Lin Che didn't mention this, did he?
He usually teaches these kids together, and then promotes a few who have the opportunity to form their core quickly.
"I don't understand, how could they be five thousand years old? Five thousand years ago, the Myriad Beasts Sect didn't even have many people..."
Han Yue stood up, looked down at her, and instead of explaining about the Firelight Beast, she started a new topic, talking about Lin Che: "We don't believe in the Water God, no... I should say, the cultivators in the entire Lower Immortal Realm cultivate on their own and don't care about the legends of the Great Immortals, they are too far away. If the Water God is really your Daoist partner, there is something you don't seem to know."
Zhao Xi thought she could forget about the Firelight Beast in the blink of an eye, stood up, and frowned: "Please speak."
Han Yue: "The spiritual energy in the lower immortal realm is turbid, and even cultivators with high cultivation levels avoid it for fear of damaging their cultivation. What about the immortals? The cleaner the water source, the easier it is to be polluted. I heard that he even laid out a water source in the Wind and Thunder Grassland to save you."
