The girl decided to play nice and introduced her to the history passed down by everyone in the Western Realm. "Do you know that thousands of years ago, the demon tribe broke through the barrier, controlled the demon beasts, caused a beast tide, and was sealed back to the demon world by the goddess?"
I don’t know, but Li Yirou knows how to lie, so she nodded slightly.
"In the 25th year of Chengping, someone damaged the seal and stole the divine seal, the Fuyao Sword, causing chaos in the four realms of the cultivation world."
In the world of cultivation, one era is one thousand years, and one year is one hundred years. The 25th year of Chengping was about 20 years ago, and now it is the 45th year of Chengping.
The two women who were chatting just now mentioned this, but Li Yirou did not interrupt her to see if she was telling the truth.
The young girl narrated, "The formation master from Wuji Palace repaired the seal. Although no major disaster occurred, for some reason he failed to completely seal it. Some ferocious beasts remained, hiding in the Hundred Thousand Mountains. As a result, small-scale beast tides still erupt from time to time today."
"The Western Realm was originally a remote place, with most of the famous sects located in the Central Plains. Later, monsters appeared in the mountains, adding to the dangers. I don't know what happened to the other three realms, but the Western Realm has been almost abandoned by the cultivation world."
Seeing that Li Yirou seemed to know about this but didn't say anything, probably to verify the truth of what she said, the girl had no choice but to continue: "Fortunately, there is Master Lu Guanqing, who was a close friend of the then head of the Yijian Sect.
After the death of the former leader, he couldn't bear to see his sect fall into decline, nor could he bear to see his friend's hard work go to waste. In the twelfth month of the 25th year of Chengping, he resolutely went here to succeed him as the leader of the Yijian Sect!
The girl was a little excited when she said this, and her pale face flushed again. There was a bit of admiration in her tone. It seemed that Master Lu was her idol.
"Master Lu had an elder who was in the Jindan stage. He felt that his great-great-grandson was a man of great righteousness, so he loved and cared for him even more. In the end, he used his connections and spent a lot of money to set up the only teleportation array in the Western Realm. This allowed us to not fall too far behind and still transport goods and trade with the Central Plains."
"But the Western Realm has never been the same since then. The spiritual energy is much thinner. Ordinary people can no longer leave, and few are willing to come here."
In this story, Master Lu made a great sacrifice. If that is true, then he is quite great?
But Li Yiru suddenly remembered that sect, which deliberately did not provide good meals for its disciples so that they could exchange or buy fasting pills, and did not even let go of small amounts of money, being extremely stingy.
In order to save some spirit stones, the disciples endured the bitter taste and ate the free meal, which made them very dissatisfied with Aunt Xiuling.
But if Aunt Xiuling was not familiar with the elders, I am afraid she would not even give them this little free food, forcing them to waste time making it themselves or buy fasting pills.
I believe that when converted, the fasting pills are always cheap and convenient, and the sect can also sell more pills.
So she always felt that this story was inconsistent and was probably made up.
I feel sorry for my friend's sect. Wouldn't it be better to move it to some developed area in the Central Plains? Is it necessary to develop it where it is?
She wasn't quite sure how much it would cost to set up the teleportation array, but it cost one high-grade spirit stone to transfer one time. It seemed very expensive to her. Couldn't she make the money back?
Not to mention, the Yijian Sect seems to have already taken control of the Western Territory. They are the local tyrants here and have a very good reputation.
Maybe because of Han Yuzhen, she had a deep resentment towards Yijian Sect, but when she thought about it and realized that there were still many normal people in it, she suppressed her resentment.
Indeed, the sect leader really gave up the opportunity to follow the Jindan cultivators and came to a remote area to guard a sect. He really has the dedication of some branch teachers.
Although she had been in the sect for several months, she had never met the Sect Master Lu. At the end of the year, the sect would hold a ceremony similar to the annual summary meeting, but she ran away before she had stayed there long enough.
But what does he look like to her? She doesn't worship him.
Although she was analyzing a lot in her mind, only a few seconds had passed. Li Yirou then asked the girl another question, "How many towns are there in the Western Territory, and which one is the largest?"
She didn't need to pretend. The girl probably saw that she knew nothing about this place and might think she was a monk who had strayed there by mistake and wanted to find out more about the situation.
"The Western Realm is very small, with only five towns. In terms of size and population, the largest is Chixia Town, adjacent to the Yijian Sect. The second is Baiguo Town, home to the Baiguo Secret Realm. The third is Yougu Town. The fourth is Qianshan Town. The fifth is Yunjiao Town. However, the latter three are now like villages, having been severely damaged by the previous attack. There are almost no people left in them now."
No wonder Han Yu was so sure that even if she ran away, she wouldn't be able to get far, so he dared to go into seclusion without any worries.
My senior sister probably didn't know the reason and thought she had run away, and my master would be completely disappointed. When he came out of seclusion, he could persuade my junior sister that she was ungrateful and let her give up her as a traitor and let her fend for herself. Then she would be free.
The Western Realm is too small to stay here! Li Yirou only knows that the great are hidden in the city. If you want to hide, it is more convenient to hide in a big place. Although there will be new dangers, the resources will definitely be richer.
But how could she get out? Saving up money to ride a teleportation array sounded so far-fetched! She struggled to earn even 100 spirit stones, and she couldn't imagine how long it would take to earn 10,000. Even stealing or robbing would be difficult.
Seeing that the girl was talking a lot, the young man quickly took off the bamboo tube hanging on his waist, let her drink some water, and answered Li Yiru's questions for her.
It turns out that even the most clueless people are always attentive to those they cherish. She had thought that this young man had no redeeming qualities except that he was not very smart and had good control.
"If you keep going west, you will find the way to the mortal world." The young man took over the topic.
The mortal world... where would she go back to? She could avenge her original self first, but that was impossible.
After a brief thought, she gave up. If she went to the mortal world, it would be completely isolated from the world of cultivation. How could she improve her cultivation? Hiding like a rat for her entire life, wouldn't her suffering be in vain?
She won't give up unless she tries her best!
The young man thought about it and continued, "The towns in the Western Realm are all ordinary and small, but the Yijian Sect that Xiaoyue just mentioned is quite good. If you want to go, you can apply from the town and visit the sect."
Li Yiru nodded, "You two must swear not to disclose our conversation!" At most, you can say that you have seen her in the secret realm, which is not inappropriate.
Li Yirou stared at them. The two of them swore seriously, but the girl named Xiaoyue had a puzzled look on her face. It was unknown what she was thinking.
"My storage bag was also stolen." Li Yiru decided to ask someone else to see if what the two said was consistent.
She put away the formation plate and stuffed it into her sleeve. After all, she had disrupted the team entering the secret realm. To make up for it, she shared the news about the thief with them. Maybe she could find the storage bag faster. She couldn't let go of a single penny now!
"That person has a long face and short legs, wears dark blue clothes, and is so much shorter than your brother." She gestured to a length of ten centimeters. "Skin color..."
Li Yirou was about to continue describing the man's skin color and appearance when she suddenly heard someone shouting from not far away, "Hurry up! Help! Someone's drowned in shit!!!"
