"Weren't you dead?"
Asahi blurted it out.
Wen Zhixuan traveled back in time, but he did not belong to that era. Therefore, after his death, all records related to him were erased.
In the vast expanse of history, there has never been such a person.
Thus, Wen Lingyi had nowhere to go.
The journal he left behind could not be opened until Wen Zhixuan was reincarnated and, through the bond between father and son in their previous life, was able to open it.
Wen Zhixuan: "..."
Jiang Shumiao remained calm, "You two have mistaken me for someone else."
Fuqu: "..."
Aren't you gods afraid of being struck by lightning for lying through your teeth?
Oh, right, you're not afraid.
Qianli had calmed down and asked, "Is there a great calamity in the mortal realm that you have descended here?"
As expected, Asahi's intelligence is still on point.
Jiang Shumiao then briefly explained the cause and effect, and revealed the purpose of summoning them.
"You two go and steal back the ancient musical score." After assigning tasks to Fuqu and Qianli, she looked at Baimin and said, "You go and destroy that dilapidated shrine that enshrines war criminals."
They even hold ceremonies there.
Go to hell.
No, we'll throw them all into the River of Oblivion.
Wen Zhixuan finally found an opportunity to speak, "That place has a formation and is guarded by vengeful ghosts. They are all demons, and you will be annihilated before you even get close."
Fuqu couldn't help but roll her eyes.
This guy is starting to discriminate against demons again. The camaraderie they once shared in battle has been completely dissolved by the Meng Po soup.
Jiang Shumiao hummed in agreement, "So you're going with them."
Wen Zhixuan glared, his voice rising, "How can the righteous Xuanmen associate with demons? Don't you know that the catastrophe was caused by the demons invading the human race?"
?
No wonder I've always been prejudiced against demons.
We've found the root of the problem.
"What's wrong with demons?"
Jiang Shumiao glared back, "Your ancestor's master was the Demon Lord, what are you so high and mighty about?"
Wen Zhixuan was struck dumb, instinctively taking a few steps back, his eyes almost shattering.
Fuqu felt a little sorry for him.
Qianli sighed, but added insult to injury, "Lingyi called us 'brother' and 'sister' when he was a child. How come his descendants are so old-fashioned and inflexible?"
Bai Min also said, "Although we are demons, we have never done anything that is against heaven and reason."
Fuqu pouted, "Human hearts are far more wicked than demons."
Wen Zhixuan was greatly shocked.
As a successor of the orthodox Xuanmen sect, he has always taken it upon himself to slay demons and eliminate evil.
Now they are told that their ancestors associated with demons, worshipped demons as their teachers, and even the gods they worshipped protected demons.
His long-held beliefs were shattered in an instant, and he couldn't accept it.
Jiang Shumiao thought for a moment and said, "Humans can be good or bad, and demons can also be good or evil. Those who cultivate the Dao should have an open mind and be able to distinguish right from wrong. If they are too concerned with trivial matters and have a narrow vision, their Dao heart will be damaged sooner or later, and they will fall into the evil path."
Wen Zhixuan's eyes flickered slightly, and he struggled to say, "But demons are inherently ferocious, can they truly be benevolent?"
"Why not?"
Jiang Shumiao said solemnly, "They could have secluded themselves in the mountains to cultivate, but they stepped forward to protect humanity when it was in trouble. Bai Min even served as a county magistrate, and his achievements are clearly recorded in the county government's register. When I took him away, the entire city's people knelt and begged him to stay. Can't you see the merits they have accumulated?"
Wen Zhixuan saw it.
That's why he wavered.
Merit and virtue cannot be faked.
"Let's go, we don't have much time left."
Jiang Shumiao didn't say anything more.
The path of cultivation is long and arduous. Wen Zhixuan is still young, inexperienced, and pure of heart. As he experiences more in the future, he will understand that the world is not just black and white.
In the end, Wen Zhixuan compromised.
The group quietly infiltrated the island nation.
Jiang Shumiao sat cross-legged on a cloud in the air, drawing a mirror in the air with her finger. There was a pile of snacks around her, and she ate while watching.
With Tian Shu Xuan Ji by his side, breaking the formation was not difficult for Wen Zhi Xuan. Fu Qu and Qian Li were very experienced in combat, and the group worked together quite well.
There are a lot of vengeful ghosts, and even a few ghost kings.
Seeing that the authorities had been alerted, Jiang Shumiao finally made her move. Cangyuan emerged from between her brows, buzzing twice in the air. With immense divine power, it swept across the battlefield.
All the vengeful ghosts were instantly annihilated.
Jiang Shumiao sent a message from afar.
"Don't linger, just bring the goods back."
Without the obstruction of supernatural forces, everything becomes much easier.
The situation is more complicated with Bai Min; most of the war criminals' souls haven't disappeared and remain there to guard the area.
His cultivation level was high, so he handled the situation with relative ease. However, Wen Zhixuan and his group had achieved a great victory, which had already attracted the attention of the Japanese military, who had begun to issue warnings and pursue them. He might not be able to hold out for long before being surrounded and attacked.
As Jiang Shumiao was looking around, a familiar presence suddenly approached.
"Master."
Sun-yeon watched her retreating figure and called out softly.
Jiang Shumiao sighed helplessly.
She didn't say anything, she didn't care what happened.
Seon-yeon didn't dare to speak again, and just stood silently in place.
Suddenly, a loud bang was heard.
The sanctuary collapsed.
Bai Min temporarily blocked the evil spirits and ghosts with a barrier, then transformed into his true form, a white fox as large as a mountain. He sat down on it, and the toilet instantly turned into powder.
At the same time, the barrier was broken.
"Hidden Abyss".
With a soft shout, Jiang Shumiao unleashed a sweeping sword aura, destroying all the evil spirits that had rushed forward to tear Bai Min apart.
The special department members waiting for reinforcements noticed the unusual activity immediately and quickly received confirmation. Before they could even be shocked, Wen Zhixuan and his team appeared before them with the musical scores and ancient books they had snatched back.
