Yuan Dongrun swallowed his anger because of Shu Jianyue's finger. The strong prey on the weak; if you can't beat them head-on, you can fight them from behind.
Shu Jianyue put away the Giant Mountain Bull, looked at Gu Dingyang and raised an eyebrow, "Is the Heavenly Saint Sect nearby?"
It seems that the Tian Sheng Sect was among the team that caused trouble for Fuchen Mountain last time.
Gu Dingyang nodded. "It's about two hundred miles from here. Is Miss Shu going to visit the Tiansheng Sect?"
"No, we have to get going, so we won't bother you any longer. We'll definitely visit again next time." Shu Jianyue waved to Yan Xi after she finished speaking.
When Yuan Dongrun saw Yan Xi, his dark eyes lit up.
"Junior Brother Gu, we still have a mission to complete, let's go quickly."
Gu Dingyang forced him to take him away.
Shu Jianyue didn't see the scheming in Yuan Dongrun's eyes, but the shorter Yan Xi did. Although she couldn't make out what it was, she knew that the man had ill intentions.
Yu Chuan played with Dou Dou for a while before returning to find Shu Jian Yue. Tian Kong and Zi Yu went to the other side. The two beasts had been detained for three days and were now running wild.
Shu Jianyue and Yan Xi, mother and daughter, were chatting while picking herbs, and this conversation startled Shu Jianyue.
Her daughter is only six months old, but it seems like she knows everything.
This child is not six months old; he should be five years old.
The cultivation techniques she and Yuchuan practiced were inherited from their memories, like a form of inheritance.
Even though Shu Jianyue was somewhat prepared, she was still taken aback.
So it's confirmed once again that the children's father is not human.
"Mother, we're back." Yu Chuan, wielding his trident, lunged at her.
Shu Jianyue caught him. "Be careful, don't worry about falling."
"Mother, let's go. I sensed Father again just now. He's in the southwest." Yu Chuan hugged her neck and shook her.
Shu Jianyue looked at him speechlessly, "Don't worry, your father won't run away if you leave him there."
Yu Chuan continued shaking her neck, "Mother..."
"Alright, let's call Tiankong Ziyu back and then set off." Shu Jianyue reluctantly pulled him off.
Sky returned first, and Ziyu was a little later.
Seeing the little spirit beast cub in Zi Yu's mouth, Shu Jianyue frowned. "Zi Yu, why did you bring that little one here?"
Zi Yu put down the cub in his mouth and said, "Just now, a human tried to steal this Crimson Flame Tiger cub, but I saved it. The Crimson Flame Tiger wasn't in its cave, so I brought it here."
Shu Jianyue stepped forward to check on the newborn cub, but as soon as she squatted down, she sensed a group of spirit beasts rushing towards her.
"Sky."
The sky looked in that direction and immediately understood, releasing its oppressive aura.
A group of galloping spirit beasts sensed the pressure of the divine beast and were so frightened that they all slammed on the brakes.
The ones in front stopped in time, but the ones behind didn't, so they piled on top of each other, one end on top of the other.
Shu Jianyue flew to the group of spirit beasts, which numbered over a thousand.
Where are you all headed?
The Crimson Tiger at the bottom of the stack struggled to raise its neck and said, "My child was stolen. When I heard that he was in your hands, I brought my brothers here."
The Crimson Flame Tiger looked at the sky pitifully and said again, "Venerable One, really, I'm not lying to you. These brats can testify."
"If I had known it was a Venerable One, I would never have dared to do it even if you killed me."
Seeing the spirit beasts in front of her nod in unison, Shu Jianyue returned the cub to him, saying, "Take good care of your children from now on. If you lose them again, you won't be as lucky as you are today."
Then he looked up at the sky and said, "The news must have been spread by the person who stole the cub. Sky, go and see if that person is still in the mountains. Throw the cub into the Crimson Flame Tiger's cave."
"Since he likes the Crimson Flame Tiger so much, then he should get along well with it."
What she dislikes most is being blamed.
They want her to take the blame but also want to mess with her, as if she's made of clay.
Sky nodded and led the group of spirit beasts away.
The Crimson Tiger, carrying the child in its mouth, kept thanking them. Only after all the spirit beasts had retreated did it turn around and run away.
Shu Jianyue was also waiting for him in the same spot, but instead steered the spirit boat ahead.
As dawn approached and Sky still hadn't returned, Yu Chuan leaned against the railing of the spirit boat, looking out. "Mother, why hasn't Sky returned yet?"
Shu Jianyue frowned. There was nothing unusual in the contract image. Where did Tiankong go?
Sky isn't someone who doesn't know his limits; he should be back once he's done his business. Is that person really that hard to catch?
If it's difficult to catch, he won't be able to rescue the spirit beast cub from its owner.
"Mother, look, let Yu'er take my sister to eat some spirit fruit or mashed potatoes."
After Shu Jianyue finished speaking, she used her mental power to search the place where Tiankong had left. Tiankong was heading north, but it was possible that he would change direction later.
Shu Jianyue searched for him for a long time with her spiritual power but couldn't find him. She closed her eyes and entered her sea of consciousness, wanting to ask him through telepathic communication, but she didn't get a response for a long time.
Something happened.
"Yu'er, you and Xixi go into the space. Mother will go find the sky."
Seeing that her expression wasn't good, Yu Chuan obediently nodded. "Mother, is there any danger?"
Shu Jianyue patted his head, "Mother is now at the second level of the Nascent Soul stage. There are few people in the Eastern Continent who can rival Mother. Don't worry."
"You and Xixi go inside and help your mother pick the spiritual fruits from the trees and harvest the spiritual vegetables from the ground. When we get back, we'll make Spirit Nourishing Pills for Chaotian."
"Yes, Mother." Yu Chuan nodded with a smile.
Shu Jianyue put them into her spatial storage and looked at Ziyu.
He had always known that she had a space that could accommodate people, and since he was born, she had never let him go in.
Zi Yu looked at her and said, "Don't worry, once I take human form, I will form a contract with Yu Chuan and I won't betray him or reveal it."
Shu Jianyue didn't say anything and took her in as well. She was in a hurry to find Zai Kong now, and they could talk about it after she found him.
Shu Jianyue stowed the spirit boat and flew north.
I asked spirit beasts and passersby along the way, but none of them had ever seen the sky.
This living person... this living beast, can't just disappear into thin air, can it?
Shu Jianyue headed north out of the mountains and looked at Maofeng City ahead.
People came and went at the city gate, all ordinary people bustling about.
Shu Jianyue probed inside with her spiritual power and found that there were very few cultivators inside.
Just as I was about to go in and take a look, Chongjiu pulled me into a dream.
Looking at Chong Jiu, whose expression had darkened considerably, her thin, pale lips were slightly pursed, and her dark eyes were fixed on her, as if trying to suck her in.
Shu Jianyue pinched her palm slightly and asked, "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing." His voice was lower than usual, with a slightly tired hoarseness.
"Did something happen that you suddenly pulled me in here?" Shu Jianyue was afraid that Tiankong might be in danger, so she wanted to find him as soon as possible.
Even though it is a divine beast, it is not invincible.
Chong Jiu's eyes turned slightly cold. "I can only call you when I need something? Or are you in a hurry to reunite with your husband who abandoned his wife and children?"
He didn't say it aloud, afraid of hearing an answer he didn't want to hear from her.
Afraid!
He never expected that he would use this word one day.
It's utterly ridiculous.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but chuckle.
