Jia Xitong trusted Baiyu Zhenjun very much and stayed in the house obediently for many days.
Then, one night...
Just as Jia Xitong was about to rest, the door was suddenly opened. Bai Yuzhenjun, with Niu Chuanchuan slung over his shoulder, gestured to her, "Let's go!"
This is truly unexpected; we were completely unprepared.
Bai Yu Zhenjun had made many preparations beforehand, and they evaded guards all the way out of the Demon City. "Do you have a flying artifact?"
He looked at Jia Xitong and said, "They'll realize it in no more than 15 minutes (seven minutes)."
"have!"
Jia Xitong nodded and took out the Water Cloud Boat that Shang Yanting hadn't taken with him before leaving. "Let's go pick someone up first before we go."
Last time we forgot about Niu Niu, this time we can't forget Teacher Tuo. Then they quickly boarded the Water Cloud Boat and headed away from the imperial city.
Where are we going now?
Bai Yu Zhenjun gazed into the distance, a hint of bewilderment flashing in his eyes. Now, possessing the power of a demonic cultivator, he was about to return to the ranks of martial cultivators, yet he suddenly felt a sense of trepidation, as if he had failed the elders of Yimeng Academy.
"Senior, let's go find my host first. There are many people within the martial arts community who want to kill you to eliminate future troubles, so let's discuss with him what to do next."
Of all these people, she naturally trusted Shang Yanting the most.
As she spoke, she took out a communication talisman, "Dear host, are you still in the Heavenly Palace?"
"Um."
"Wait at the door, I'm back."
Jia Xitong spoke with a sense of triumph. After all, other martial arts practitioners couldn't even enter the Demon Capital, while she had brought Senior Bai Yu back unharmed.
In situations like this, it's natural to be a little bossy.
Once they reached the Heavenly Palace, they were finally free from the Demon Lord's control. Jia Xitong stood at the bow of the ship and saw Shang Yanting waiting at the entrance from afar.
"Host, dear!"
Jia Xitong waved to him, then led Bai Yu Zhenjun, Li Tuo, and Niu Chuanchuan, who had been unconscious until now, downstairs.
Upon seeing Bai Yu Zhenjun, the smile on Shang Yanting's face vanished instantly. He looked at the man behind her and said, "Child of Annihilation."
You can tell his attitude towards him just by hearing how he addresses him.
No, no, no!
Upon hearing this, Jia Xitong tensed up instantly and stood between Senior Bai Yu and Shang Yanting.
"Senior Bai Yu is fine. We were able to escape with Niu Niu thanks to him."
Before Shang Yanting could speak, an old man suddenly appeared behind him. "Child of Annihilation?! You're really bold, daring to come to our martial arts territory!"
Jia Xitong looked at the person; it was a completely unfamiliar face she had never seen before. "Who are you?"
"I am Liu Yu of Hengyang Palace."
The old man introduced himself with a touch of arrogance, brandishing his whisk and acting as if he were someone to be worshipped.
"I don't know him."
Jia Xitong could tell from his introduction that he did not hold a higher official position than Shang Yanting.
She looked at Shang Yanting again, "Just trust Senior Bai Yu this once, he's really a very good person."
"You little female cultivator, I think you've been bewitched by the Son of Annihilation. He's a demonic cultivator! How could a demonic cultivator be a good person? And he's a descendant of Annihilation. No matter how good he appears on the outside, he's evil at heart!"
Liu Yu frowned and began to curse loudly.
This sound made everyone realize that the Child of Annihilation had actually come to their Heavenly Palace on his own.
"The Child of Annihilation has appeared!"
"He is truly the Child of Annihilation!"
"Everyone, come with me immediately! Kill the Son of Annihilation! We must not let him return and wreak havoc on humanity!"
...
In an instant, the entire Heavenly Palace was filled with the sounds of killing. Bai Yu Zhenjun, who was already feeling uneasy, felt his mood plummet to rock bottom.
Jia Xitong also realized that this matter was serious. It was a mistake to have Shang Yanting meet them at the door. Most of the people here wished that Senior Baiyu would die soon.
"Dear host, let's think of another way."
Jia Xitong stood in front of them, saying, "Listen to me, Senior Baiyu is truly a good person. Have you all forgotten the people he has helped and the things he has done over the years? You can't condemn a good person because of one flaw."
She spoke with heartfelt sincerity, but she couldn't rouse the group of martial arts practitioners who were caught up in their own thoughts.
She could only place her hopes on Shang Yanting, and looked at him longingly.
"come over."
Shang Yanting waved to her, "This matter is not as simple as you think."
His words disappointed Jia Xitong.
She pouted and looked at him, her eyes slightly red. "Senior Bai Yu, I coaxed him back. Why can't you believe there are good people among demonic cultivators? There are bad people among martial cultivators too!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Yu became excited as if he had discovered something to hold against him, "You little female cultivator, you're really determined to be on the same side as the demonic cultivators."
Are you crazy?!
Jia Xitong looked at the bald old man; he was incredibly noisy. She ignored him and looked at Shang Yanting, "Actually, eliminating the Child of Annihilation doesn't necessarily require killing Senior Bai Yu. Ultimately, what everyone fears is the demonic power within Senior Bai Yu. If we take Senior Bai Yu back and eliminate the demonic power within him, we can also eliminate the hidden danger."
She tried hard to persuade Shang Yanting and the others, but he stood unmoved amidst a crowd that was verbally attacking Bai Yu Zhenjun.
The greater her disappointment was just as strong as the anticipation she felt on the way back!
She gritted her teeth to stop her tears from falling and slowly backed away.
"Tongbao, come here quickly!"
Shang Yanting watched her movements and reached out his hand to her.
"What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and capture them!" Liu Yu suddenly said at this moment, and the people behind him all rushed forward, trying to grab Bai Yu Zhenjun.
Jia Xitong reacted even faster than him.
She shoved Liu Yu, who was at the front, aside with a palm strike, rushed back to the Water Cloud Boat, and with a quick hand gesture, the Water Cloud Boat flew away instantly.
"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and chase after them!"
Liu Yu urged his men to hurry up and get moving, "Hurry up, don't let them get away!"
However, the difference in the quality of their magical artifacts meant that even with their Radiant Gold and Magic Gold artifacts, they couldn't catch up with the Earth-grade Water Cloud Boat. They could only watch as it ran further and further away.
However, besides Bai Yu Zhenjun, there were two other people on the ship who were unexpectedly caught up in the situation—
Niu Chuanchuan and Li Tuo.
They were just a little slow to disembark, and now they're considered fugitives who betrayed martial arts. Li Tuo looked at Niu Chuanchuan, who was still unconscious, and for a moment felt a sense of relief that he was so lucky to be unconscious, spared from this tragic situation.
Otherwise, he might as well have fainted too.
Alas, Xitong's reckless behavior really got him killed.
At this moment, at the gate of the Heavenly Palace, Liu Yu was so angry that he jumped up and down as he watched Jia Xitong walk away. He looked at Shang Yanting, who was standing silently to the side, and blamed him, "Dean Yan, the trouble you caused is not urgent at all."
