The old man's reminder made the two people who were directionally challenged very embarrassed.
Jiang Deng and Baili Chengfeng tacitly pretended not to hear and continued to fly eastward. When they were halfway there, they thought the old man could no longer see them, so they turned around and flew westward.
Well... don't ask, if you ask, it's the high self-esteem of the strong.
After walking for about half an hour, the two finally saw a very tall and ancient city.
Before entering the city, I saw several figures flashing in the sky above the city. While flashing, they released a series of attacks. Various kinds of immortal power shone brightly, making the sky dark.
"What's going on?"
Jiang Deng was a little unsure whether Jingtian was among the crowd, because he couldn't see clearly.
"How dare you come here!" a hurried female voice sounded.
Jiang Deng and Baili Chengfeng looked up and saw a female cultivator carrying large and small bags and a fairy palace on her back running out through the open city gate.
The female cultivator was quite kind. As she ran, she reminded them, "See? The fighting is still going on up there! They probably won't stop until they destroy the city. Most of the residents in the city have already fled. You outsiders should also run away quickly! Run away as far as possible!"
"Hey, wait."
Jiang Deng couldn't help but feel worried when she heard this. Since the people living in Ten Realms City were all cultivators who had ascended from the Ten Realms, then her mother from her previous life should have also lived in this city...
Thinking of this, Jiang Deng quickly asked, "Excuse me, sir, do you know a female cultivator named Jiang Qisha? She ascended to the immortal world approximately 1,500 years ago."
"Jiang Qisha?"
The female cultivator was stunned. After careful consideration, she shook her head and said, "No, logically speaking, having ascended to Ten Realm City fifteen hundred years ago, one should have some experience. However, I have lived in Ten Realm City for such a long time and I have never heard of it."
"Okay, enough talking, I have to run for my life!"
After saying that, the female cultivator ran away with her bags of things. She disappeared in the blink of an eye. It must be said that she ran quite fast despite carrying so many things.
At the same place, Jiang Deng frowned, not having found out about her mother, which gave her a headache.
She was probably also infected by Bai Sitang's nerves, but she didn't want to stick to her mother. She just wanted to get news about her mother and know whether she was doing well or not.
But unfortunately, God didn't even satisfy her request.
Jiang Deng sighed and drove the messy thoughts out of her mind. She planned to solve the chaos in front of her first and then talk about other things. After all, if they continued fighting like this, the city would really be destroyed by them.
The two men went against the crowd of residents pouring out of the city gate, and after some effort they finally squeezed into the city.
It was not until he arrived in the city and used his spiritual sense to sweep upwards that he could see the situation in the sky clearly.
There were seven people floating in the sky. Jingtian, who was trapped among them, was fighting against six alone and was not at a disadvantage at all.
Perhaps it was because Jingtian had changed her body, her physical fitness returned to its strongest period, and her combat effectiveness was unprecedentedly improved. She was able to deal with six people who were as strong as her, and fought with them for several days.
"We also..."
Jiang Deng was about to take Baili Chengfeng to join the battle above when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure out of the corner of his eye. The figure was mixed in the crowd and was leaving the city through the city gate.
"Huh?"
Jiang Deng did not fly upwards, but turned to chase towards the city gate behind.
Before leaving, she didn't forget to make arrangements with Baili Chengfeng: "Chengfeng, you stay here and guard. If Jingtian falls behind, you help her. I have something to do and will be back soon!"
After saying that, Jiang Deng followed the man's trail and went straight out of the city.
Original place.
"Alas... How could one abandon his fellow Taoist and run away?"
Baili Chengfeng sighed. Although he felt helpless, he still had a faint smile on his face as he looked at Jiang Deng's back. "Forget it, I'm used to it. But... when did Jingtian lose the upper hand?"
Baili Chengfeng looked up, blinking his beautiful big eyes, waiting for Jingtian to fall into a disadvantageous position.
In this way, he would help Jingtian according to Jiang Deng's instructions, and Jiang Deng would not be able to find any fault. As long as Jiang Deng was satisfied, he could be promoted to a regular employee sooner.
——
Meanwhile, outside the city.
Jiang Deng chased for hundreds of miles before the other party stopped.
"Who are you, sir, and why are you chasing me?"
A deep male voice sounded.
Immediately afterwards, the man with his back to Jiang Deng turned around and revealed his face.
The man was strong, dark-skinned, and looked honest. If it weren't for the strong immortal power surrounding him, others would probably mistake him for an ordinary farmer in the mortal world.
Seeing the man's familiar face, Jiang Deng couldn't help but smile, "Venerable Wei Yan? I've heard of your great name for a long time."
Just at a glance, she recognized this man as Yao Lanxin's husband, the original owner of the Eight Gates Secret Realm.
In the level constructed by Yao Lanxin in the Eight Gates Secret Realm, she saw Wei Yan in his mortal period capture a snake demon, and then believed the snake demon's slander and killed his wife to prove his truth. After that, after he achieved some success in his cultivation, he killed his master, the snake demon.
But this is not the most terrifying thing. The most terrifying thing is that Wei Yan is a very scheming person!
He actually uses the inheritance of the Eight Gates Secret Realm as a pretext to select a peerless genius to inherit his Eight Gates Secret Realm. Because there are loopholes in the Eight Gates skills in the secret realm, the latter will be driven by Wei Yan all his life, and even if he has the opportunity to ascend, he will only become Wei Yan's puppet.
If Jiang Deng hadn't finally obtained the Eight Gates Secret Realm, I'm afraid there would really be an unlucky person chosen by Wei Yan to inherit his tattered legacy...
"Do you recognize me?"
Wei Yan obviously didn't recognize Jiang Deng, and he looked at Jiang Deng suspiciously.
After confirming that the aura surrounding this person was only that of a perfect Mahayana cultivator, he couldn't help but feel relieved. However, he couldn't help but feel a bit of contempt in his heart. He didn't know how such a low-level cultivator had managed to cross the tribulation and reach the upper realm...
Jiang Deng seemed completely oblivious to Wei Yan's disdain for her. Instead, she enthusiastically replied, "Venerable Wei Yan, it's me! I inherited the Eight Gates Secret Realm you left behind in the Ten Realms, and the Eight Gates Martial Arts you left behind there. So... I am your successor!"
Wei Yan: “…”
Not quite right.
The successor he chose shouldn't be so weak and brainless.
How can this help him?
The reason why he left the Eight Gates Secret Realm in the Ten Realms was to use it to attract an unparalleled genius to serve him. In this way, after the other party ascended to the upper realm, the two of them might be able to work together to kill the original city lord of the Ten Realms City and get the position of city lord.
But now... looking at Jiang Deng's not-so-bright eyes, Wei Yan couldn't help but feel a little overwhelmed.
