Chapter 114 [Spirit Pearl] Coming Out to the World
"Brother wants your identity and your spirit body. I don't want to be labeled mediocre anymore." Ji Changan paused, "I thought I could reincarnate after I died, and I wanted to be a spirit body in my next life, but God won't allow it! Heaven won't allow it!!" Ji Changan opened his arms and looked up to the sky, "Anyone who practices forbidden techniques cannot be reborn! I have been trapped in the underworld for many years and cannot go to the earth. Do you know? I watched you, watched Mu Chi personally repair your spirit veins, you!" Halfway through his words, he pointed at Ye Musi, "You can continue to practice!"
Ye Musi tilted his head and squinted, pondering the truth of Ji Changan's words. If what he said was true, then it was Mu Chi who had forgotten everything after waking up. His master had actually done all this for him, and he didn't even know it.
"You've met such a good master. He even tolerates Hua Jin. But what about me? He Ju can't see anything I do. He even forced my senior brother to death!"
He Ju said that He Ju was too strict, but not too strict. He only looked at the results and not the process. He said he was not strict, but he could develop a paranoid character in every apprentice.
"I hate him so much!" Ji Changan's fingertips slowly moved towards Lu Lishen. He said, "Even he lives a better life than me!"
Seeing this, Ye Musi was afraid that Ji Changan would harm Lu Lishen, so he stepped forward and stood in front of Lu Lishen.
"What are you afraid of? I won't hurt the younger generation." Ji Chang'an shook his head and laughed again. The years of fighting for power in the underworld had tempered his character. He became a little crazy. He raised his hand and returned the vitality he had just absorbed to Ye Musi.
In an instant, Ye Musi's hand returned to normal.
"That's the sword he's holding, made by the Lord of the Sky, Chen Lian, a hundred years ago. Wan Gu, huh, you're so protective of a man possessed by the devil. Ah Si, what can I say to you?" Ji Changan looked along the Wan Gu Sword and immediately saw the marriage bead on Lu Lishen's wrist. He then looked at Ye Musi's right wrist, "I see, I see. Hahaha, Ye Musi, you're with your apprentice now. No wonder you're protecting him. Why didn't those old guys kill him, huh?"
There was a hint of madness and self-mockery in Ji Changan's laughter. His eyes swept back and forth between Ye Musi and Lu Lishen, as if looking for some answer.
"I heard that Mu Chi also had an affair with Hua Jin, and Hua Jin was even sealed in Shenghe Mountain. Hey, you guys, you're so infatuated with each other, I should just focus on my cultivation." Ji Changan suddenly stood up, lowered his eyes, and his toes lifted a few centimeters from the ground, hovering in the air for a moment. "I especially like children, Ah Si, you and I have been in love for a year, so I'll give you a wedding gift."
"What?" Ye Musi was not sure what good thing it was. He held Lu Lishen's hand and was ready to run away with his sword at any time.
"You know this illusion forest is made up of multiple small illusion arrays, but you certainly don't know that this illusion forest is covered by a larger array. This array will transmit the cultivation of everyone in this forest to Shenghe Mountain." Seeing Ye Musi stunned for a moment, Ji Changan continued, "The Three Realms are about to change, and Hua Jin is about to break the seal. I don't like Hua Jin, so I won't let him out. How about we work together to break this array before it's completed?"
Ye Musi was not sure how much truth there was in Ji Changan's words, but he still wanted to believe his former senior brother.
"It's not that bad. You don't have time. I'm the only one here who knows where the center of the formation is. Ye Musi, you have no choice."
Ye Musi was still hesitating. He couldn't bet on Shenghe Mountain, so he agreed. Just as he was about to speak, a voice came from behind him.
"Valley Master Ye, what are you doing down there?"
The forest was so foggy that Jiang Yao could only see three figures while flying on her sword. She put her sword away and landed on the ground. "Bai Chaoyan, why are you here?"
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Ji Changan, the Ninth King of the Underworld."
"The underworld?" Jiang Yao looked at Ye Musi who remained silent.
"It's too late to explain." Ye Musi nodded and said to Ji Changan, "Hua Jin is about to break out of Shenghe Mountain."
"We all know it. Just after you left, Hua Jin suddenly appeared in the Water Mirror, arrogantly saying he was coming out." Jiang Yao raised her sword. "Shenghe Mountain has always been under the jurisdiction of Yinyou Valley. Now Hua Jin is openly provoking us, and your disciple is holding the Ten Thousand Bone Sword, which only a Demon Lord can possess." From the moment she landed, she noticed the sword in Lu Lishen's hand. She was shocked but didn't show it. "I have reason to suspect that Valley Master Ye has long been colluding with Hua Jin to help him."
"Did the Ten Thousand Bone Sword kill your entire family?" Lu Li said deeply, the demonic aura of Fengwei leaking out.
"You are indeed a demon! Is that person outside the gate of the demon world you?!" Although he already had the answer in his heart, Jiang Yao still asked. That was Ye Musi's apprentice, and he didn't believe that Ye Musi would allow his apprentice to become a demon.
"So what?"
The tip of Jiang Yao's sword was shaking rapidly, and she might attack at any time.
Seeing this, Ji Changan clapped his hands and said, "This is really wonderful. This senior must be unaware that our Lord of Yinyou Valley is the only Spirit Pearl in the world. What he does has its own reasons. Why bother to speculate? He won't harm you. Right, Ah Si?"
Ye Musi felt that Ji Changan's words were pushing him into the fire pit. Besides, how did Ji Changan know that he was Lingzhu?
"Yes. Sect Leader Jiang, you should put away your sword first and deal with Hua Jin."
Hearing this, Jiang Yao put away her sword. She hadn't really intended to fight Ye Musi, but was merely testing which side he was on. However, he hadn't expected Ye Musi to be Lingzhu, but whether this news was true or not was still unknown.
Ji Changan's proposal was a gift he wanted to give to Ye Musi. Regardless of whether Ye Musi agreed or not, Ji Changan had to do it. He told Ye Musi the location of the center of the formation.
"Spiritual beads and alien species counteract each other. Since this is a formation for Hua Jin, just smear the blood of the spiritual beads on the center of the formation."
After saying that, Ji Changan turned into a wisp of faint air and disappeared.
Ye Musi did as he was told, and the formation was indeed broken.
…
Shen Hua looked at the water mirror and snorted.
"I didn't expect you to be so useless that you found a fool and helped Ye Musi."
Chen Hua waved his sleeves and left. He sent Bai Chaoyan to go there, fearing that Ye Musi had already had suspicions and he could no longer appear in the major immortal gates.
…
After all the disciples were found and confirmed to be correct, the major sects returned to Linghong Mountain and held a meeting.
"Where is Master Shen?" someone asked.
Suddenly, a man wearing the uniform of a disciple of Yunlie Manor appeared, carrying a person on his back with injuries all over his body. He walked steadily and his eyes were bloodshot.
He carefully put the person down, knelt in the middle and kowtowed.
"Everyone, please avenge my master!" His name was Lin Sen, and he was the new disciple that Chen Hua accepted after he expelled Bai Chaoyan. "Bai Chaoyan has gone crazy. He teamed up with Hua Jin to kill our master!"
Lin Sen looked to be only sixteen or seventeen years old. His face and body were covered with wounds, his hair was disheveled, and he was kneeling there alone, like an isolated island.
"What did you say?" Jiang Yao asked. She and Ye Musi exchanged glances. "Bai Chaoyan killed Master Chen?"
Ye Musi's heart sank. He was about to ask Chen Hua what had happened in the Demon Locking Tower half a year ago. Why did the person just disappear so suddenly? He thought Ji Changan had killed him. He was increasingly confused about what Ji Changan was going to do. Was he going to help him or hinder him?
His brows were furrowed, and the doubts in his heart were as tangled as a tangled mess. He couldn't believe all of Ji Changan's words, but he couldn't completely disbelieve them either. His eyes fell on Lin Sen. This young disciple had obviously suffered a great blow, and his grief and anger were real.
"Yes, it was him! I don't know what kind of evil magic he practiced. Master couldn't defeat him at all. He was killed to protect me!!"
Everyone present had their own guesses: was it Bai Chaoyan who had tried to help Hua Jin break the formation, but was later discovered by Shen Hua and wanted to silence him? Or was it because he held a grudge against Shen Hua that led to his mistake?
Ye Musi looked at Chen Hua's body. The mysterious aura that permeated his body could not be faked. It was indeed Ji Changan's spell. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Are you sure that Master Chen was murdered by Bai Chaoyan?"
"What does Valley Master Ye mean?" Lin Sen asked. "Oh, I understand. I heard before that you protected Bai Chaoyan the day he was kicked out. Could it be that you're in cahoots with Bai Chaoyan? Did you guys plan this all along? It was you who killed Master!!"
Lin Sen stood up and pointed at Ye Musi.
Lu Lishen, standing behind Ye Musi, unceremoniously summoned the Myriad Bone Sword and pointed it at Lin Sen, shouting, "How dare you speak to my master like that!"
When everyone saw the Ten Thousand Bones Sword, they were all frightened and immediately thought of the incident at the gate of the Demon Realm and the newly promoted Demon Lord.
"You are still holding the Ten Thousand Bones Sword! You are a demon! You are the Demon Lord!?" At this point, Lin Sen was not willing to be outdone and summoned supporting characters to fight against Lu Lishen.
Ye Musi slammed the table, stirring up a surge of spiritual energy that knocked the sword from Lin Sen's hand. He stopped Lu Lishen and said, "Calm down first."
"Valley Master Ye, what exactly is going on? Why does your disciple have the Myriad Bone Sword?"
Ye Musi had no intention of keeping it a secret. He would know it sooner or later, so he might as well tell it now. He had promised Lu Lishen to make it known to the world.
"It's just like what you see." He clasped Lu Lishen's hands tightly, their palms pressed tightly together, rubbing against each other. In just a short while, a light sweat broke out. He raised their hands, "A-Li and I have already been bound by a marriage contract."
"What!?"
Everyone was shocked.
"Valley Master Ye, how could you do this!?"
"Is Valley Master Ye going to be the next demon?!"
"Valley Master Ye!"
"Think twice before you act!"
The Three Realms cannot do without Ye Musi, Shenghe Mountain needs Ye Musi, and now Hua Jin is eager to try, and must not make any mistakes at this time.
"I've thought it over. This is a notice, not a request for your opinion." Ye Musi patted Lu Lishen's hand and smiled gently, "I promise you, I'll announce it to the world."
"You are doing this! It's unforgivable!" Jiang Yao found it unbelievable. She thought Ye Musi must be crazy to make such a decision.
"Instead of focusing your energy on me, you might as well think about how to deal with Hua Jin." Ye Musi said.
