So even though he had arrived at the entrance of the Floating Immortal Palace, he left the Supreme Divine Palace before he could even go inside.
Chaotian had already planned to build a new auction house in Sihai. Knowing that she had returned, he wanted to show it to her, but she found no one there.
He could only send her a telepathic message: "Master, didn't you come back?"
[Yes, they didn't even go inside before coming out again. Jiang Yiqing was kidnapped, so they went to rescue her.]
"Chaotian, what do you want with me?"
Looking at the manuscript in his hand, Chaotian said helplessly, "Master, I've drafted the auction house plan. I'm waiting for your review."
Shu Jianyue waved her hand dismissively and said, "No need to show me. Do you think I wouldn't trust you to do things?"
[You can handle it yourself. If you're too busy, just get those other people with free time to help out. Don't let them be idle.]
Chao Tian sighed and had no choice but to agree.
The master is doing a great job of being a hands-off manager!
Indeed, at this moment, Shu Jianyue was still comfortably leaning in Chong Jiu's arms, letting him carry her and follow Kong Xuan without her having to exert any effort.
[By the way, Chaotian, keep an eye on Fu Laosan and Cheng Lin from the Fu family. Their daughter died in the Fanhu Mountains, and they're taking their revenge on our Supreme Divine Palace and Yu'er.]
While they themselves are not to be feared, it is difficult to guard against petty people.
Chao Tian's brow twitched slightly. [Okay, I'll be careful. Should we take action against the Fu family?]
[The sky has already gone over to the Fu family's place. Just keep an eye on them and don't let that couple take advantage of any loopholes.] After transmitting her thoughts, Shu Jianyue took out some fruit, tossed two to Kong Xuan, and asked, "Where have you been having so much fun while you were away?"
Kong Xuan glanced back at her and said irritably, "What do you mean by 'carefree'? You're just going through the motions."
I spent most of this time in the mountains.
Kong Xuan teleported them in the opposite direction from the Fanhu Mountains, and after walking for a while, they arrived at the place where Jiang Yiqing had been kidnapped.
“We were resting here when that person suddenly appeared and took Jiang Yiqing away.”
Shu Jianyue looked around and began to examine her surroundings using her spiritual power.
They traveled for hundreds of miles before finally spotting Jiang Yiqing.
When Shu Jianyue saw him submerged in a large vat with a fire burning underneath, she immediately moved.
Holy crap, this is really going to get boiled!
Chong Jiu reacted quickly and followed.
Kong Xuan was a step too slow.
Shu Jianyue arrived in front of a dilapidated bamboo house and announced loudly, "Shu Jianyue, the Palace Master of the Supreme Divine Palace, has come to visit."
A series of crackling sounds came from inside the house, as if someone inside had broken something in a panic.
Chong Jiu landed beside her, looked at the bamboo grove and said, "This bamboo house is interesting."
"What's wrong?" Shu Jianyue didn't notice anything different.
“The entire bamboo house is covered with arrays. If you haven’t reached the Tribulation Transcending stage, you won’t be able to find this bamboo house.” Chong Jiu said as he stepped forward and deactivated the arrays on the bamboo house.
As soon as the formation was broken, the people inside the bamboo house immediately opened the door and ran out. "Hey, what are you doing? I didn't mean you couldn't come in, why did you break my formation?"
Upon seeing the white-haired, youthful-looking old man emerge from the bamboo house, Kong Xuan immediately stepped forward and asked, "Where is Jiang Yiqing?"
"What Jiang Yiqing? I don't know him." The white-haired, youthful-looking old man pushed him aside and walked up to Chong Jiu. When he saw him, his original imposing manner instantly vanished.
"Jiu, Jiu Ze God, what are you doing here?"
Chong Jiu glanced at him expressionlessly and said, "Why can't I be here?"
"Tell me, how did you end up in Sihai, Lord Nangong?"
Shu Jianyue glanced at Nangong Shenjun, also known as Gong Funan, and asked, "Is this person from the Upper God Realm?"
Chong Jiu nodded, "Gong Fu Nan, the God Lord of the Upper God Realm, used to work in my Chong Yao Palace."
Gong Funan scratched his head, looked at Shu Jianyue and smiled, saying, "Greetings, Madam. My name is Gong Funan."
Seeing that Chong Jiu was staring at him, Gong Funan knew that he couldn't stay silent, so he said, "I was forced to leave. I originally wanted to stay in the Holy Spirit Sect, but I didn't like the sect leader of that sect in the Holy Spirit Sect, so I came to the Four Seas. It's quiet here."
"Who?" To be able to squeeze out a God-King, the other party must either be a God-Emperor or have a powerful backer.
Gong Funan sighed and said, "Lord Lanqiu, Duan Lanqiu."
Chong Jiu frowned. "Duan Lanqiu, how come I've never heard of this person?"
Gong Funan shook his head and said, "He is a newly promoted God Venerable promoted by the Emperor. He is domineering and ruthless, and there is nothing he cannot get if he sets his sights on something."
“I have something he wants, and it’s also very important to me, so naturally I can’t give it to him. That’s why I had to leave the Upper God Realm to avoid him, and I don’t even dare to stay in the Divine Continent.”
Chong Jiu sneered, "Heh, he's just raising a dog. He won't be arrogant for long."
Seeing that they were talking so enthusiastically, Kong Xuan went into the bamboo house by himself. When he saw Jiang Yiqing soaking in the vat, he was furious.
Just as he was about to go up and bring the person out, he heard Gong Funan say, "If you drag him out, you'll get him killed."
Kong Xuan turned and rushed out of the bamboo house, standing in front of Gong Funan and demanding sharply, "What did you do to him?"
"I didn't do anything. His spiritual veins are special, so I just helped him modify and heal them."
Kong Xuan frowned. "What makes a spiritual vein so special?"
Gong Funan laughed and said, "In this life, I can only reach the Tribulation Transcending stage, and there is no possibility of further advancement."
"Hmm?" Shu Jianyue looked at Chong Jiu. "Wasn't it resolved?"
Chong Jiu shook his head. "At that time, I only removed the servitude mark from his body; I didn't solve their problems."
“They have been subject to this limitation since their ancestors, and it is naturally passed on to the next generation. At first, it may be the mildest, but over time it becomes deeply ingrained in their blood.”
“So, all the clansmen have this hidden danger in this battle.” Shu Jianyue frowned.
Chong Jiu pulled her close and shook his head, saying, "Don't worry, their problems will gradually be resolved as my servant seal deepens."
"But there are still many who haven't been branded with the servant mark, right?" Jiang Jingyi and the others who surrendered first didn't have the servant mark.
"It's alright, I have a way to help them get rid of it, it just takes some time." Since he brought them out, he naturally wouldn't let them stop at the Tribulation Transcending stage.
If they stop at the Tribulation Transcending stage, what use are they to him?
Kong Xuan looked at Chong Jiu and asked, "So, you knew about Jiang Yiqing's problems all along?"
"Hmm, what's the problem?" Chong Jiu glanced at him, displeased with his questioning attitude.
Kong Xuan seemed to snap out of his daze the moment he saw that look, and shook his head, saying, "No, it's just that the Venerable One never mentioned it before."
Chong Jiu withdrew his gaze and said calmly, "Why should I tell you this matter? In what capacity do you need to know about this?"
Shu Jianyue smiled when she heard his words.
She hadn't thought of it that way before, but after hearing about the heavy moxibustion, she couldn't help but think of it in a different light.
