Chapter 113 113 You are just a chatterbox.
Xie An thought he was being very secretive about his curiosity.
The small wooden box was very ordinary.
Who gave it to Master?
He was able to avoid the patrol of Xuanyin Immortal Sect and sneak into the master's immortal residence to deliver something. Why did he feel so familiar with this behavior?
A light bulb went off in my head.
Xie An's eyes widened.
Wei, Wei Shizhou?
It couldn't be what he thought, could it? But he was the only one in the world who would openly pursue his master. This kind of sneaky behavior seemed like something he would do.
"Master, this thing is strange, I'd better destroy it..."
"Need not."
Shi Hua closed the lid and the smile on his lips faded.
"With the demons fleeing, the immortal world will face uncertainty for the next few years. Go back and heal your wounds, and don't neglect your cultivation. If that ever comes to that, the young people of your generation will need to step forward and fight the enemy together with the immortal sect."
Xie An's eyes were firm: "Master, don't worry, I will practice diligently when I return!"
He has been protected by the immortal sect for many years. When the world of immortal cultivation encounters danger, they must stand up and contribute their own strength.
Bidding farewell to Shi Hua, he went to the spiritual spring with great vigor to soak in it to expel the cold poison, and at this time he did not forget to practice his mental method.
As for Shi Hua, after he left, she opened the wooden box again, picked up a jade hairpin inside, and stroked it carefully.
The jade material is warm and smooth, and it feels like a wisp of spiritual energy is flowing when you touch it. The jade lotus on the hairpin is carved very realistically, which shows the care of the sculptor.
There was also a letter in the wooden box.
"Painting, this is a thousand-year-old jade crystal I stumbled upon. I thought it would go well with the painting, so I asked a craftsman to teach me the craft and carved it myself. I hope you don't mind it being ugly."
This jade hairpin is not as ugly as he said.
If it was really ugly, Wei Shizhou would not have sent it secretly. Given his personality, he would rather destroy it than let her see it.
Shi Hua didn't know what he had been doing during this period, and the system couldn't reveal it either. It was only responsible for the plot on Shi Hua's side.
The blood pact has also been very calm.
Touching the jade hairpin, she suddenly walked to the mirror and held it up for comparison.
She doesn't like gaudy things, and the jade hairpin just suits her temperament.
"You have a good eye."
Shi Hua couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth.
She then put the jade hairpin back into the wooden box and placed it on the dressing table.
After some time, she went to find Chi Qingxuan.
Chi Qingxuan was busy with the sect's affairs. He had just cut off the communication with the Jianchen Sect when he looked up and saw her figure.
"Senior Sister?"
He stood up and walked over to her, pouring her a cup of hot tea.
During the past ten years, the demons were rampant. Chen Quan searched everywhere for his own soul and took Ye Zhenqiu and a few others to commit evil and wreak havoc in many places.
The fragment of soul imprisoned in the Xuanyin Immortal Sect is still there.
As long as he fails to collect all his soul fragments, his power cannot be fully exerted.
Chi Qingxuan has already discussed with several immortals and has decided to strictly guard the place where Chen Quan's soul is imprisoned.
"Sister, are you here to tell me to do something?"
Shi Hua shook his head: "Although the teleportation arrays of each sect have been restored, we cannot estimate the number of demons that have escaped. I need to go to the Endless Realm to guard it for a while. I will leave the Immortal Sect to you."
As if she thought of something, she added a few more words.
"Yun Yao has a cheerful personality, but she's never vague when it comes to serious matters. If you encounter any difficult issues, you can contact her. The Jianchen Sect is already in a state of panic, so it's good that they can handle their own affairs."
After the Jianchen Sect's leader and Cang Yan eliminated the demons in the sect, they were severely injured and needed time to recover.
The number of demons hidden in other sects is far less than that of this sect.
Lingyuan Pavilion was almost gone. The demons wanted to secretly control Lingyuan Pavilion, but they were caught by Mo Huai before they could last a day.
Chi Qingxuan nodded: "Okay. If you are going to the Endless Realm, I will send some people to go with you. The Demon Lord is cunning and I am worried..."
"No, right now, the Immortal Sect is more important. Ying Xing will be here in a few days, so you don't have to worry."
With Ying Xing around, Chi Qingxuan could naturally feel more at ease.
Ying Xing's divination skills are the most powerful among all the leaders of Lingyuan Pavilion.
"Okay, Senior Sister, be careful on this trip."
"Well, everything in the sect is left to you."

The Endless Realm is far away from the Immortal Gate.
Back then, Shi Hua used a sword to cut off the cliff and seal the demon, splitting the Immortal Gate from the Endless Realm. Under the bottomless sword mark, there were countless sealed demons.
The demons were sealed at the bottom of the cliff, and were constantly affected by the demonic energy around them, so no grass grew around the Endless Realm.
Shi Hua's sword stopped in the air.
Sensing her breath, the demonic energy above the cliff became fierce and the demons at the bottom of the cliff screamed.
The shrill roars continued to ring out.
They clamored and hated her for sealing them here, depriving them of their freedom all day long.
Shi Hua's eyes turned cold, and murderous aura emanated from his body, frightening the demons so much that they trembled in fear and dared not utter a word.
"Shuyu, you are here after all."
The hoarse voice of the Demon Lord pierced through the bottomless abyss.
Shi Hua raised his foot and stepped down in the air, with pieces of frost condensing under his feet.
"Demon Lord, you have lived comfortably at the bottom of the cliff for the past ten thousand years."
"Haha, compared to Immortal Master Shuyu, he even has the leisure to talk about love."
Shi Hua said nothing, and the frosty air instantly covered the endless area, turning the area within a hundred miles into an ice sculpture.
The Demon Lord was in a good mood, humming a smile as he continued, "I was trapped by Chen Xu, which gave you the opportunity to seal us away. The scene outside is much more interesting than it was ten thousand years ago. I never thought that the dignified Shuyu Immortal Lord would condescend to toy with an ignorant boy. The ferocity with which you pulled out the Golden Core is even greater than when you swung your sword back then."
Shi Mo's expression was calm.
The outside world still didn't know the truth about what happened in the Floating Cloud Secret Realm. Wei Shizhou deliberately concealed it, so Chi Qingxuan stopped harping on it. The Demon Lord had been trapped for ten thousand years, which was really boring. Although this space magic couldn't let him escape, it could still send out some spies.
There are many birds and beasts in this world, and wherever they exist, they are his eyes.
"I didn't know that you, a great Demon Lord, would actually imitate those peeping behaviors."
"Same here."
Shi Hua chose a relatively clean place to stay.
With a wave of his sleeves, a pavilion appeared out of thin air.
Since she would be staying here for a while, she brought a lot of things, tea set being one of them.
Actually, she doesn't like tea.
When she became Chenxu's disciple, she loved to drink tea and admire the moon in her spare time. Shi Hua once asked her why she loved drinking tea. She said it was not because she loved drinking tea, but because drinking tea could give people a feeling of remaining calm even if Mount Tai collapsed in front of them, which was very suitable for her identity.
She always liked to pull her and Chi Qingxuan to drink tea together.
The tea was bitter and she didn't like it, but because she liked it, she learned to accept it.
Shi Hua subconsciously brought out the tea set.
"Oh, you still like to drink."
A dark body suddenly appeared opposite the stone table.
It was condensed by the Demon Lord using demonic energy.
His voice came along with the evil spirit.
Shi Hua ignored him and changed his wine utensils.
"You should have met Chen Xu, right? It's been a long time since we last met, master and disciple. Are you very moved?"
"If I hadn't sent Chen Quan to find you, you would still be foolishly deceived by her. You should be thanking me."
Buzz!
The Qingshuang Sword flashed by.
The evil energy on the opposite side was instantly dispersed.
Shi Hua drank slowly, "Noisy."
The evil energy gathered again.
"Don't you like it? The immortal Chenxu, whom the world believes to be a benevolent lover of mankind, is actually a fallen demon who practices forbidden techniques. How ridiculous."
Shi Hua didn't raise her eyebrows. "You sent the demons to tamper with the teleportation array. Did you expect I would destroy it? Let me think, those arrays you tampered with should have been completely cleared away. Your people won't be able to escape. How great would that be."
“…”
The evil spirit was swaying, as if it was very angry.
"Oh." He gritted his teeth, "Chenxu is inside you. She wants to take you over. Your beloved master wants your life. Shuyu, you are the one who is pitiful."
"You're just a chatterbox."
His soul was trapped by the Gu Yuan Curse. Others could come out of the seal, but he couldn't.
His body was sealed by her in the endless realm, and his soul was tied up in his body by Chen Xu. Who could be more miserable than him?
Shi Hua was too lazy to argue with him, as he couldn't win the argument anyway.
Waste of breath.
The Demon Lord couldn't defeat her and was so angry that he lost his temper and dissipated his demonic energy.
Shi Hua glanced sideways.
Lingyuan Pavilion does not need Xuanyin Xianzong, as there are many people in charge. Ying Xing wants to leave for a while, as there are too many things to be handed over, so he will come back a few days later.
Shi Hua could take charge alone, but Ying Xing said he had something important to discuss with her.
She couldn't help but wonder, compared to the fusion of death and love, what else could make Ying Xing so serious?
*
That night, dark clouds covered the sky and the ground was dark.
Affected by the demonic energy, the sky above the Endless Realm lost the brilliance of the stars and the moon, and was filled with pitch black and deathly silence.
Shi Hua closed his eyes and meditated.
After a while, he suddenly opened his eyes, and a trace of evil spirit flowed in his eyes.
She came to the edge of the cliff and gazed down at the deep cliff.
The cliff split by the Qingshuang Sword has a sharp edge and magnificent momentum.
"Demon Lord."
The floating demonic energy swayed towards her.
Squeak!
Before they made contact, the evil spirit was burned by the flames on her body.
"Why don't you speak your true self?"
The evil energy condensed into a black shadow.
"Didn't you see everything?"
The Demon Lord laughed, "Yes, I saw it clearly... Chen Xu."
The woman who tried to die with her was finally devoured by her inner demons and turned into this horrible appearance.
The current Chen Xu is not the real her.
"Why are you looking for me? Aren't you afraid that your good disciple will find out?"
Chen Xu's face remained calm. "I sealed my five senses, so she can't detect it. You've been sealed at the bottom of this cliff for ten thousand years, and now her plan has been blocked... Do you want to cooperate?"
The Demon Lord remained silent for a long time before speaking: "What makes you think that I would cooperate with someone who wants to kill me?"
Chen Xu corrected him: "It was she who killed you, not me."
"Is there any difference?"
When Chen Xu fell into the devil's trap, the only bit of rationality she had told Shi Hua to kill herself, but unfortunately Shi Hua hesitated for a step too late, and the inner demon devoured her first.
On the surface, there was still a trace of Chen Xu's soul left, but in fact it was the soul of Chen Xu's inner demon that devoured him.
Chen Xu lost his patience: "I don't mind if you want to continue being sealed."
The Demon Lord looked unhappy after being hit in the sore spot.
"How do you want to cooperate?"
"I know her secret. I'll help you leave here, and you help me kill her."
The Demon Lord raised his eyebrows: "Oh, tell me about it."
As for cooperation, this person is Chen Xu's inner demon, and there is no such thing as honesty between him and the inner demon.
Who can guarantee that she will not succeed in taking over Shi Hua's body after his death and then turn around to kill herself?
Speaking of which, he was curious about what this inner demon that devoured Chen Xu was and now resided in Shi Hua's body.
Chen Xu didn't know his twists and turns.
"She has two life-defining magical instruments."
