Chapter 453: Listen to what you say. Is it human language?

The fairy ran headlong into Lin Du's arms like a deer in the forest running into bamboos, dropping a thin layer of snow all over the ground.

Ni Jinxuan looked up and put her hands on her hips proudly, "Uncle Junior Master, I'm awesome, right?! Yuan Ye hasn't even ascended yet!"

Lin Du nodded, "Amazing, super awesome."

Ni Jinxuan chuckled, and the moment she let go of Lin Du, she became a calm and composed immortal again. She smiled and said, "My eldest senior brother is now in the Thunder Department's Shenxiao Mansion, and Senior Sister Tianwu is in the Thunder Department's Huo Mansion. I am now a wandering immortal, so I came here as soon as I heard the news!"

Lin Du calculated after hearing this, "Only three of you have ascended? Have you ascended not long ago?"

Ni Jinxuan shook her head, "Actually, I was the fastest to ascend. I ascended three hundred years ago! My eldest senior brother and second senior sister ascended just a while ago. I followed Senior Uncle Cangli to ascend. Hehe, we are still in the Supreme Sect in the Immortal Realm. It's still the same."

Lin Du was not surprised at the whereabouts of others. Mo Lin originally practiced the Divine Xiao Dao, so it was surprising that he did not enter the Thunder Department. What surprised her was that Xia Tianwu entered the Thunder Department and Fire Palace instead of the Heavenly Medicine Department.

Ni Jinxuan saw her confusion and shook her head seriously, "Little Master, you don't know, Second Master is very powerful now! You will know when you meet her."

Lin Du was relieved after hearing this, as long as it was voluntary.

"I have something to do now. I'll come back to find you." Lin Du glanced at the immortal official and began to quickly reorganize his new personality in his heart.

There are quite a few people who have ascended from the Supreme Sect. Although it seems that there are only three, four, five or six people who ascend in each generation, when added together, it is too many.

Even though not many people entered the Heavenly Palace, just from this one encounter, it was clear that Lin Du's connections in the Heavenly Palace covered at least three departments.

This is not about having no connections, it is about having strong connections and a background that are not yet mature.

Wei Zhi saw Lin Du's uneasiness about the interpersonal relationships he would face in the future. He remained calm and whispered through his spiritual consciousness, "Why should you be restrained? After all, you are the thirteenth disciple of Daozu. If you cause any more trouble, the Emperor of Heaven will hand you over to Daozu to deal with it."

Lin Du shook his head. "I didn't care at first, but now that they're here, I have to think twice about getting involved with them."

If she were alone, she would just follow Wei Zhi and Chu Guanmeng, and she wouldn't have to repeatedly consider her actions.

Where there is concern there is restraint.

"To put it another way, this way the Emperor of Heaven will be more assured of your existence." Wei Zhi thought for a moment and made a serious suggestion, "Because he knows you are worried about these people, so you will not be too reckless in doing things, and the stability of the Heavenly Palace will be guaranteed. Having concerns is actually a good thing."

Lin Du's brows twitched slightly, "That's right."

In Yuqing Palace, the Emperor of Heaven was much more generous than they had imagined. He was wearing a not-so-gorgeous wide robe with big sleeves, with broad brows and eyes, and with the golden light lingering around his body, he perfectly fit the four words "the light of righteousness".

Lin Du and Wei Zhi performed the greetings, and the Emperor of Heaven walked down the jade steps and looked affectionately at the two people who stood up.

"Lingwei Daojun, I have been waiting for you for a long time. Good boy, you have achieved such success at such a young age."

The good boy smiled falsely, "I didn't enter the Heavenly Palace when I ascended to heaven before, so I didn't have the qualifications to meet the Heavenly Emperor. Then I was trapped in the ruins to study. I'm only here to pay my respects now. It's my fault."

"I wonder which ancient god did Taoist Lingwei inherit his legacy from?" asked the Emperor of Heaven with a smile.

Wei Zhi watched the two men's smiles with his peripheral vision, the curves of which had not changed, and suddenly felt that it was a good thing that he could pretend to be a warrior. If he kept talking like this, even if he was an immortal, his facial muscles would be stiff.

Lin Du said that there were many, but she did not point them all out, and said modestly, "Inherited from the Earth Official."

The Emperor of Heaven remained calm upon hearing this, "The inheritance of the Earth Official is good. The Three Yuans and Nine Prefectures are now short of talent, and they need young people to come in. Young people are full of energy."

Lin Du just smiled when he heard this.

Everyone knows that the Heavenly Palace is full of "retired cadres" who basically never leave the palace all year round. The only one who appears more frequently is an immortal who walks around everywhere to exorcise demons and monsters.

It sounds like Lin Du is going to take up a slack position.

The Emperor of Heaven looked at the smiling Lin Du in front of him and thought, how nice it would be to have some free time. The thing he feared most in the Heavenly Palace was people looking for trouble.

Lin Du's next words shattered the beautiful future that the Emperor of Heaven had just built in his mind.

"Now that I have inherited the Floating Life Fan, which has been lost for a long time, the seniors of the Three Yuans and Nine Prefectures naturally have no mission to perform and will not come out. This is not the reason for the decline of talent."

Lin Du spoke lightly, but the Emperor of Heaven was already beginning to have a headache.

"Now that the Heavenly Palace is peaceful and the Three Realms are at peace, what kind of work is there? The less tasks there are, the better." The Emperor looked at Lin Du, "Anyway, the Three Yuans and Nine Palaces have been empty for a long time. Now maybe you are the only one. If there is anything missing, tell me."

Lin Du nodded, looking very honest. "I will report any shortages truthfully. If we are short of manpower, don't we still have the Thunder Department and the Fighting Department?"

The Emperor thought about it and said, "That's fine. If you have any questions, please report them to Taixuan Province and the Heavenly Master will report to me."

After the two of them finished laughing, the Emperor turned to greet Wei Zhi.

Lin Du was still smiling and narrowed his eyes slightly. In the conversation just now, the Three Yuans and Nine Palaces were in charge of the blessings and misfortunes of the world and examined the merits and demerits of the gods, but they had become an idle government office and almost never recruited people. Lin Du pointed out the magical treasure he inherited, which was already clear.

The Emperor of Heaven did not promise her that she could take on supervisory responsibilities, nor did he grant her real power. Third, she was still a commander without troops. If she was short of people, she could not directly issue orders.

She was very familiar with this matter. She said everything on the surface, but in fact she promised nothing.

The Emperor of Heaven was talking to Wei Zhi, "You have been reluctant to take over the position of Taiyi, but that is your fate. If you did not accept the inheritance, it would be fine. Now that you have accepted the inheritance, we in the Heavenly Palace need you very much."

Wei Zhi was equally sincere, "Just now, Heavenly Emperor, you said that the Heavenly Palace is peaceful and the Three Realms are at peace. How could you urgently need me? If there is really a shortage of manpower, I think the Three Yuans and Nine Palaces are also suitable. After all, I am not talented and can only subdue demons and monsters and make clouds and rain."

The Emperor of Heaven choked when he heard this. He had summoned Wei Zhi before he ascended to heaven. Unfortunately, this real dragon had a bad temper and every word he said was like a soft knife. But what he said was indeed not wrong. There was no way he could punish him and he was completely helpless.

Now, two soft knives stood before the Emperor of Heaven, and he suddenly wanted to call the Heavenly Doctor Department to cure his headache.

Why are all the previous Taiyis such stubborn and unyielding people?

He is worried.

Wei Zhi saw that he had a helpless look on his face, and immediately added, "The inheritance of the previous Star Lord has not been found yet, so how can I be the legitimate Taiyi Star Lord now?"

The Emperor of Heaven became even more worried after hearing this.

Some thorns, even after they die, remain embedded in the flesh, causing dull pain when poked from time to time.

He responded quickly, "Okay, then I'll give you the task of finding the inheritance. What do you think?"

Wei Zhi remained calm and said, "We should do our best."

The Emperor of Heaven looked at Taiyi, who looked tired, and Lingwei, who looked like he was smiling perfectly but was ready to cause trouble at any moment, and took a deep breath. "If that's the case, then it's settled. You can go back and rest first."

The two men turned around and left, and their expressions did not change at all until they left the Yuqing Palace. The immortal official in charge of seeing them off believed it and quietly labeled them both, one a smiling tiger and the other a lazy bum.

Lin Du came out of Yuqing Palace and saw from afar Yan Ye walking out of Siming Palace, Mo Lin walking out of Shenxiao Mansion, and Xia Tianwu walking out of Fire Department.

The three of them all looked indifferent, and seemed to be going their separate ways. She raised her eyebrows and said, "I don't know how to get to Lingcheng, Immortal Officer. I'm too poor. I'm going to sell something."

The immortal official was stunned for a moment, but still pointed out the way responsibly.

Lin Du left with satisfaction.

When they arrived in the city, the group met unexpectedly.

"Oh, what a coincidence." Lin Du pretended.

Yan Ye was too lazy to pretend, so he put his hands behind his back and said nothing.

Mo Lin and Xia Tianwu smiled at Lin Du, "Uncle Master, hey, do you want to eat? Let's go! Shengyan opened a restaurant, it's great."

Wei Zhi fell behind by one step and walked side by side with Yan Ye.

"How does it feel to master the Book of Fate?"

Yan Ye shook his head, "The secret of heaven cannot be revealed."

Wei Zhi looked at him, laughed, and said nothing more.

"I haven't thanked you yet for taking care of her for me. From now on, it will be even more impossible for me to take care of her." Yan Ye said in a low voice.

"She is very strong. I am not the one who takes care of her." Wei Zhi looked at Lin Du's back, "I just followed her voluntarily."

"Because of your current position, she has already restrained herself. You two, master and disciple, have to avoid suspicion like this because you hold the most powerful innate spiritual treasure in the Heavenly Palace. You think it's for the good of each other, but neither of you is willing to speak frankly. Is it worth it?"

Given Lin Du's personality, if Yan Ye hadn't been in the Fairy Palace, she would have probably gone straight to the Heavenly Palace and started the investigation right away when the Fairy Official invited her.

Yan Ye sneered, "It doesn't matter whether it's worth it or not. Everyone has their own destiny, it's just a choice."

"Hey, how long does Lin Du have left to live?" Wei Zhi suddenly asked, "Just give me a rough estimate."

"Don't worry, when she first reached the thirty-third heaven, her life span suddenly became the same as that of a normal immortal. The Taoist was quite good to her." Yan Ye said this and paused, "But some things cannot be solved by becoming an immortal."

Just like what is not destined to happen will never happen.

Wei Zhi laughed, "You don't care about some things, and she doesn't care about her life span. She never regrets."

Yan Ye shook his head, his brows becoming more serious. "She chose the most dangerous path. Either she is completely clear-headed or she never moves. With her personality, she will definitely choose the former."

"It may not be her choice, but she must be willing to accept it." Wei Zhi pondered for a moment, "Do you know what happened before the death of the former Taiyin Star Lord?"

Yan Ye glanced at him and said, "Are you trying to get close to me? Do you want to see the fate book? She is dead, I may not have the authority to do so."

Wei Zhi remained silent, waiting for Yan Ye's answer.

"Forget it, I'll show you a way, Guixu. It is said that the last Taiyin appeared in the fairyland for the last time, and the route leads to the end of the fairyland." Yan Ye glanced at him, "Do you dare to go?"

The abyss is bottomless; it is the final resting place of countless lost gods and immortals; no god has ever returned alive.

"It's OK. After all, I have the Water God's inheritance." Wei Zhi thought for a moment, "I think I can come back."

Today, the Heavenly Palace is too harmonious, like a piece of soft dough. It is difficult to start, and nothing can be taken out. They are also silent about the Fallen Angels and the origin of the evil energy, pretending they don't exist. The death of the previous Taiyin is the only breakthrough.

The words of the Emperor of Heaven today might also be telling him that in order to find the inheritance of Taiyin, some things need to be done with a legitimate reason.

Yan Ye looked at him deeply, his tone a little stiff, "You are looking for death, don't take my apprentice with you."

Wei Zhi took a breath and said, "You are the one who controls my life, can you please not say anything casually? Do you know how to be discreet?"

"I don't understand." Yan Ye walked away, leaving behind this sentence, and took the main seat at the table in the private room of the restaurant.

Lin Du sat aside calmly, "Boss, bring us all your signature dishes."

Shengyan crossed his arms and looked at her, "This is a high-end restaurant in the fairy world. Don't act like a local tycoon. Can you be more elegant? You are already a fairy official. Why are you still so flashy like you were when you were a kid?"

Chu Guanmeng and Ni Jinxuan stared blankly at the feast, "Is it not possible?"

feast:……

"Yes, yes, I will do it."

She resigned herself to her fate and told the kitchen to prepare the dishes in individual pots, which she would do herself. She told them not to prepare the small, delicate dishes that the immortals liked, but to serve them in whole pots.

Lin Du propped himself up with his arms and listened to Ni Jinxuan excitedly recounting the many adventures she had encountered in the underworld.

After the meal was over and the wine was drunk, Ni Jinxuan's face flushed and she suddenly approached Lin Du, "Little Master, is the price of growth necessarily to be separated?"

Lin Du was startled when he heard this, "What?"

She muttered to herself, "I really hope Yuan Ye and Yan Qing will come soon, so we can be together again."

"Forget it, it doesn't matter if you don't come. I can live a happy life on my own."

When Lin Du looked again, he had fallen asleep on the table.

Wei Zhi apologized, "This wine has been brewed for a thousand years, so it is indeed a bit stronger."

Yan Ye doesn't drink, so he left long ago. Feng Chao carried the noisy Ni Jinxuan, and went back to the mountain where the Supreme Sect in the upper realm was located with Cang Li to rest.

"I was wondering why I was so good at setting up stoves when I was little. It turns out it's because my fire is really amazing! Not only can I make pills, I'm also a great fighter now, little master!"

Xia Tianwu started rambling again and was taken away by Mo Lin.

Lin Du looked at the mess on the table, and suddenly smiled, "Jin'er is still not old enough."

Otherwise, how could she be so clear-headed?

Chu Guanmeng was picked up by her and said, "Tell me something sad."

Mao Tuanzi's eyes were hazy with drunkenness. "Listen to what you are saying. Is it human language?"

"You saw the scene when Taiyin was about to die, right? I guess she is a people-oriented person, so it is impossible for her not to care about you, so the only possibility is that you are the only clue she left for me."

"So where was the place where she died?"

Lin Du asked seriously, "Use your divine consciousness to simulate it for me, and I will look for it in the fairy world."

"I know you'll be sad, but I have to take the first step based on this one clue."

Lin Du smoothed its fur, with a sense of frost and wind in his eyes.

Chu Guanmeng was silent for a long time. "I seem to have forgotten, but I seem to remember that it is... a place with nothing. I can't tell it apart. Let me show you."

Lin Du received that scene through the contract, and at that moment, Wei Zhi suddenly and rarely broke into her consciousness.

This time it was not a telepathic message, but his own consciousness, carrying a profound demonic power that was completely different from that of humans.

Lin Du was stunned for a moment and did not resist. Then he heard his deep voice.

"It's Guixu. Under Guixu is an endless sea that no immortal has ever walked out of. It's so deep that you can't see where it is. It's called the resting place of the fallen gods."

She raised her eyes, "How do you know?"

Wei Zhi withdrew his consciousness and lazily leaned against the lattice window in the corner, smiling slightly, his eyebrows and eyes were clear, just like when they first met, he was so close, but with a barrier-like insolence, "This... is a secret."

With a pre-set clue and this scene, the answer is obvious.

Yin Huaitian probably died in Guixu, where there was only endless water, so there was nothing around him when he was dying.

"Lin Du, I might need to go down and look for Yin Huai Tian's inheritance."

Wei Zhi met her eyes and said gently, "This is our only chance."

Lin Du was stunned for a moment, then quickly understood what Wei Zhi meant, "Are you alone?"

Wei Zhi nodded, "I am enough on my own. I can't let others take everything away with me. What if I can't come back?"

Seeing that she wanted to say something, he raised his hand and pointed at the pairs of bowls and chopsticks on the table, "They won't want an empty seat."

Lin Du opened his mouth and frowned slightly, "You once told me that there is more than one savior in the world..."

"You are the one who must not fall. You are the only one who has the ability to completely clean up the fairyland and eliminate the source of evil spirits."

"Let me be the one who hits the pillar, and you, be the one who changes the world." Wei Zhi interrupted her and said seriously, "This is the most rational and comprehensive way, isn't it?"

Lin Du rarely insisted on arguing a winner as usual. She leaned back in her chair and looked at him, like a leaf startled by a cold pond. "You don't have a second life."

Wei Zhi has never lost a debate, "and neither have you."

At this moment, Lin Du suddenly understood that the source of her previous hostility towards Wei Zhi might not only be the tit-for-tat confrontation, but also the consistency between him and her at many times.

His thoughts on a matter were like waves spreading out when a stone falls.

Now, undercurrents are surging beneath the calm deep sea, and they all want to be the lone boat that breaks the calm.

"I have the inheritance of the Water God. No one is more suitable to be your striker than me." Wei Zhi looked at Lin Du's thoughtful expression, and suddenly crossed a few seats and came to Lin Du. "For the sake of safety, I think you and I should sign a contract. At least, I can pass on messages to you even if I am far away in Guixu. Even if I can't pass on messages, you can still connect with my five senses and understand the truth of everything."

If he can't come back, maybe he can still give Lin Du enough news.

Lin Du closed his eyes, then leaned forward on his own initiative, causing Wei Zhi, who was approaching, to subconsciously want to step back, but he steadied himself.

“Don’t move.” Lin Du raised his hands to form a seal, and his consciousness slowly formed a seal, and then sank into Wei Zhi’s forehead.

As it was so close, the dangerous beast's eyes suddenly appeared.

The lingering consciousness that belonged to Lin Du alone was driven into his divine palace, and the silver mark of the contract slowly fell into the dragon-shaped divine palace.

The silver dragon glowing with golden light lowered its head and shook vigorously, its head and tail connected. The golden divine consciousness instantly wrapped around the brand, surged upward, and then condensed into a new golden contract brand, which followed the cold divine consciousness little by little and fell into Lin Du's divine residence.

Lin Du then opened his eyes and met those amber vertical pupils without hesitation.

She leaned back in her chair, clearly sitting down, but with the ease that only a trader could have, like the last look down at the green hills and land below the peak before ascending to heaven, with a relieved warmth beneath her endless indifference.

"Okay." Seeing Wei Zhi was a little dazed, she spoke.

Wei Zhi stood up suddenly, revealing a rare half dragon-shaped demon pattern on his neck. "Shall we go?"

Lin Du also stood up and picked up Chu Guanmeng. "No, they've all left. Have they paid? I won't have to stay and wash the dishes, will I?"

…

Wei Zhi stopped walking, and the red color of the demon pattern faded away. "Good question."

The two looked at each other with sad faces, "If it really doesn't work, let's go to the next door to sell something first..."
