The man and woman sent by the Hehuan Sect this time seemed to be in a Daoist couple, judging by their intimacy. While Hehuan Sect disciples didn't necessarily rely on sexual intercourse for cultivation, most of the sect's techniques still required the harmony of yin and yang. Therefore, after finding their ideal partner in the Hehuan Sect, they quickly became Daoist couples, their lives bound together and shared common destiny.
"Who are you two?" Xiong Qi stepped forward and asked.
"Senior, I am Li Xunji, a disciple of the Fourth Elder of the Hehuan Sect." Li Xunji said, gently pulling the gentle woman who was a step behind him over and introducing her, "This is my Taoist partner, Yu Jiaojiao."
"Jiaojiao greets you, Senior." Yu Jiaojiao bowed in Xiong Qi's direction, her voice soft and gentle, like a seductive cat, making people look at her sideways. She looked like a pampered woman in the boudoir of the mortal world, not a cultivator.
Xiong Qi nodded to the two younger generations, and scanned the crowd that had gathered around him. Seeing that everyone's attention was on him, he spoke, "Everyone, since I said there is a way to pass through the barrier, I will definitely not break my promise."
"However, before entering the demon world, I have a few things to explain to everyone."
"Before we set off, I've already told your elders that I, Xiong, haven't been back to the demon world in nearly ten years. This time, I'm only responsible for leading you through the barrier. As for your safety, I can't guarantee it. But your elders still sent you here. They should have explained some things to you before you set off, so everyone should be clear about their current situation."
"One more thing. If the demon world remains the same as before, I can guarantee that the demons will not harbor any ill will towards you. If something unexpected happens there, you will all just have to leave it to fate."
"I've finished what I've said. If anyone has changed their mind, just stay in this boat. In half a month, the people from the Tianji Pavilion will come to look for the boat. If nothing happens by then, I'll escort you out, and then you can all take the boat back to the Tianji Pavilion together."
"This matter concerns your own life. I hope everyone will consider it carefully. Tomorrow morning, I will lead everyone into the demon world."
After Xiong Qi finished speaking, he turned around and exchanged a glance with Song Xunbai and Yan Baibai, and the three of them quickly left the deck, leaving everyone space to think and discuss.
After the three people left, the deck was quiet for a while, and then someone began to express his thoughts to his companions, and the noise gradually became noisy.
——
What no one, including Yan Baibai, the strongest person present, noticed was that there was a group of vague human-shaped smoke standing quietly on the terrace at the top of the spaceship, watching everything below.
This figure was composed of a grayish-white mist. After Yan Baibai's figure disappeared, the mist gradually turned black, and a shadow slowly appeared under his body. Then, a tall and thin figure wearing black tights appeared.
He wore a demonic mask, beneath which complex black demonic patterns snaked from his neck down to his body. His waist-length black hair was tied high back with a gleaming black jade, and atop his head were two sharp black demonic horns. His lean waist was tightly bound by a black jade belt. He wore a black jade ring on his right index finger, and in his right hand, he clutched a blood-red sword that radiated murderous intent.
If Yan Baibai saw it, she would definitely recognize it. The black jade ring was the storage ring that she took out from the sect's treasure house and gave to Lu Wuxiu when she went to the sect's treasure house, and the blood sword belonged to Shi Yan.
"Boy, Baibai followed that pretty boy in again." Shi Yan started to make a big fuss in Lu Wuxiu's mind: "I say, boy, you followed her from Wuzhi Mountain to Tianji Pavilion, and now from Tianji Pavilion to here, why don't you dare to go out and meet her?"
Lu Wuxiu suddenly tightened his grip on Shi Yan's hand, and veins popped out on his arm, but his scarlet eyes just stared gloomily in the direction where Yan Baibai disappeared. After a long time, just when Shi Yan thought he would remain silent as before, Lu Wuxiu finally spoke.
"She wouldn't want to see me after I did something like that."
At this point, Shi Yan was silent for a while, then quickly cheered up: "You are not her, how do you know she doesn't want to see you."
"Besides, Baibai is so nice, she wouldn't...she wouldn't be so cruel, right..." Shi Yan felt guilty as he spoke.
"Senior Sister...she likes the guy from the ghost world." Only Lu Wuxiu knew how much courage he had to say this.
"But Baibai's condition was obviously not right at that time. It was that hateful ghost cultivator who took advantage of the opportunity to sneak in. It doesn't count. It doesn't count." Shi Yan was so angry that he jumped to his feet.
"Why not?"
Senior sister didn’t refute it at that time, did she?
At this time, Lu Wuxiu fell into endless sadness and despair.
"Boy, you're only boosting others' morale and destroying your own prestige. That ghost cultivator will definitely agree and like this." Shi Yan wanted to continue scolding him, but seeing Lu Wuxiu so depressed, he couldn't bear it and changed the subject: "Anyway, you just can't let her go, so why not show up and pester her in every possible way?"
"This... will only make Senior Sister hate me even more." Lu Wuxiu said silently.
"Boy, do you really want to continue like this? Bai Bai is going to the demon world this time. Song Yu will not let her go easily. Do you really..."
"So, I want to kill Song Yu before they meet."
Before Shi Yan could finish his words, Lu Wuxiu interrupted him.
Shi Yan did not refute. He knew in his heart that no matter what he said now, it would not change Lu Wuxiu's decision.
On the system side, it looked at the Lu Wuxiu exclusive panel that suddenly popped up in front of it, looked at the sudden increase in the blackened value, and fell into a deep silence...
