Jiang Shumiao didn't care.
"The gods spout platitudes about benevolence and morality all day long, but in reality they bully the weak and rule by force. The gods are in the wrong for letting the demons hide among humans. The Heavenly Emperor should come and explain to me that since he holds a high position, he should understand his responsibilities. Otherwise, I will depose him."
Having already heard her harsh words to Bai Zhu, everyone was horrified upon hearing this.
Who exactly is this person?
No one dared to ask.
Although the girl looks young, her cultivation is indeed unfathomable, and the gods are clearly making things difficult for her today. Since she is willing to step in to protect her, there is no need to pursue the matter further.
"By the way, how many people are imprisoned in Jiuyuan?"
The Nine Abyss is the prison of the immortal realm, half of it is ice and half of it is fire; one can only enter but never leave.
Jinxia Yuanjun's eyes dimmed. "The previous sect leader, along with six elders and twelve exceptionally talented disciples, were all imprisoned in the Nine Abyss. The Xuanbing Minghuo tortured them day and night, and now only two are still alive."
Jiang Shumiao said, "Take me to see it."
Let's get them out of there first.
Jinxia Yuanjun saw through her thoughts and her face lit up with joy. "Yes."
The Nine Abyss lies beneath five immortal mountains, a place of extreme cold and scorching heat. One can be frostbitten or burned from afar, and those with low cultivation levels cannot even preserve their souls. Therefore, only a barrier is set up, requiring no one to guard it.
The barrier was set up by her disciple and passed on to her five disciples, which is why it took the combined efforts of the five sect leaders to open it.
Jiang Shumiao simply waved her hand, and the barrier broke.
A mixture of icy cold and scorching heat erupted forth.
Jinxia Yuanjun and the others immediately activated their Golden Elixir to protect their bodies.
Jiang Shumiao remained expressionless. "You all step back. I'll go and bring the person out."
Having said that, before anyone could react, she vanished without a trace. She reappeared in less than the time it takes to drink half a cup of tea.
Jinxia Yuanjun and the others stepped forward, "Your Excellency."
With a flick of his sleeve, Jiang Shumiao revealed a man and a woman lying on the ground. The man had white hair and a handsome, youthful face, while the woman was cold and beautiful. Judging from their attire, they were disciples of Penglai and Yingzhou.
Jinxia Yuanjun and Zixiao Xianjun each squatted down to check on their own disciples.
"Remove dust".
"Daowei".
Both were seriously injured, with their dantian meridians damaged, making them practically useless.
Jiang Shumiao uttered two words.
"It can be saved."
Both Jinxia Yuanjun and Zixiao Xianjun showed joy on their faces, "Thank you, Your Excellency."
He Quchen and Zhang Daowei were the eldest disciples of Penglai and Yingzhou respectively, geniuses rarely seen in a century. Both had entered the Nascent Soul Realm, but were unable to break through and ascend to immortality. They both developed inner demons, injuring their elders and dozens of fellow disciples. The five sect leaders had no choice but to join forces to suppress them and banish them to the Nine Netherworlds.
Twenty years have passed since then.
It's a miracle that they survived.
Jiang Shumiao channeled her divine power into her palm and swept the two men from head to toe, rapidly healing their shattered dantian and the meridians that had been frozen and burned by the Xuanbing Minghuo.
The Golden Elixir was reformed.
Ling Quchen and Zhang Daowei opened their eyes and sat up at the same time. They subconsciously circulated their spiritual energy and found that the flow of spiritual energy was unobstructed and even better than before.
Both of them looked at Jiang Shumiao with disbelief.
Jiang Shumiao said with a smile, "You two are lucky. If you stay in there for a few more years, even a god couldn't save you."
Ling Quchen and Zhang Daowei immediately stood up and knelt down, saying, "Thank you for saving us, young lady."
Jinxia Yuanjun and the others were waiting anxiously outside when the door opened and Ling Quchen and Zhang Daowei came out. Their faces were clean, their aura was pure, and their cultivation seemed to be even greater than before.
"Greetings, Master."
The two bowed to the elders.
Jinxia Yuanjun and Zixiao Xianjun stepped forward one after another.
"Is it really healed?"
"Your dantian has been repaired and your spiritual energy has been solidified. Dao Wei, your cultivation has improved again."
All the sect leaders wore expressions of disbelief and joy, tinged with a hint of melancholy. Over the years, many powerful figures in the immortal sects had developed inner demons due to their inability to break through, but only these two juniors had managed to emerge alive from the Nine Netherworld.
Jiang Shumiao's act of kindness completely convinced the immortal sect, so they took the opportunity to introduce Lin Tingwan and tell her about her experiences.
Jinxia Yuanjun immediately made the decision to accept Lin Tingwan as her disciple and let her live with Zhang Daowei.
This shows that they have been nurtured with good intentions.
Jinxia Yuanjun privately told Jiang Shumiao, "This girl has experienced many hardships in her life. It is a blessing that she was able to meet Your Majesty. That cat demon is impulsive, but he is a romantic. He is willing to give up his entire cultivation to give her a new life. I think she is clear-headed and a pure and kind person. Your Majesty has good taste."
After Lin Tingwan awoke from her daze, everything changed, and she was filled with suicidal thoughts.
Jiang Shumiao once told her that suicide in the underworld would be punished. But in fact, she should have died six years ago. Bai Heng saved her by a twist of fate. Ghost messengers cannot summon living souls, and her destiny in the Book of Life and Death had been altered. Furthermore, due to Bai Heng's centuries of cultivation, she gained a connection with the immortals.
Fengdu told her that Lin Tingwan's name had disappeared from the Book of Life and Death.
In other words, she only has one path: cultivation. Otherwise, her soul will be scattered across the world.
This is also why Jiang Shumiao brought her to the East China Sea.
“I have a younger member in my family who has a connection with the immortal sect,” Jiang Shumiao said. “I originally brought him with me, but his father had something to do halfway through the journey, so we changed our route. It may take two or three months before we arrive.”
Jinxia Yuanjun understood.
"Since they are destined to join our immortal sect, we will naturally nurture them well."
Jiang Shumiao waited for a month, but there was no movement from the gods, so she simply spread out her divine sense.
The Protoss... well, they're in a meeting.
Did Bai Zhu not go back?
Jiang Shumiao was surprised, and then summoned Fengdu to inquire.
Fengdu stated, "After the immortals fall, their souls return to the Void, not to my Underworld."
"I know."
Jiang Shumiao seemed to be deep in thought. "His immortal body is destroyed and his divine bones are shattered. I kept his soul so that he could go back and deliver a message. After delivering the message, his soul would be scattered. But now his soul has disappeared. I suspect that it was scattered by someone."
