“I’ve been here for quite a while, and apart from you and that mysterious wandering immortal, I haven’t seen any other unfamiliar immortals from outside Tiannan Immortal City. I saw you wandering around this immortal city again and again, so I couldn’t resist asking you something,” the immortal explained to Wang Yao.
"A wandering immortal? What does he look like?" Wang Yao's eyes widened.
Wang Yao naturally knew about "wandering immortals." They were a type of immortal between living immortals and mature immortals, and it was also a relatively neutral term used in the immortal world to refer to cunning immortals. But no matter what, these immortals were also destabilizing factors in the immortal world. How could Hui Shuo have gotten involved with such immortals?
Furthermore, aren't immortals supposed to be unable to see the moon and the moon? How could they have been persuaded by this cunning immortal to go to the demon realm? Although my next destination is the demon realm, it doesn't make sense. Could this be a precautionary measure, with that cunning immortal being an accomplice of Eunuch Wei, who has long planned to use the moon and the moon to blackmail me?
After hearing what the immortal said, countless thoughts raced through Wang Yao's mind. He didn't doubt that the immortal was lying, after all, it was a fact that Hui Shuo was missing. Besides, the immortal didn't know about the unclear father-son relationship between Hui Shuo and himself.
Without Hui Shuo's own confession, no one would consider him and Hui Shuo to be father and son.
"What does he look like? Just an ordinary-looking old man, neither tall nor short, neither fat nor thin..." The immortal frowned as he spoke, then flicked his finger, and an image of an immortal appeared out of thin air.
Wang Yao took a closer look and found that apart from being old, there was nothing unusual about the immortal. He had no choice but to memorize the immortal's appearance.
"Um... how do you know he's You Xian?" Wang Yao was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something important and hurriedly stopped and turned around to ask.
"I guessed," the immortal replied with a calm and collected smile.
"A guess?" Wang Yao asked in astonishment.
"Exactly. Think about it, the immortals within the system are busy with their duties every day. Where would they have the time to care if you have lost a son? Even familiar immortals have work to do. If you see an immortal wandering around aimlessly, nine times out of ten it's a wandering immortal."
The immortal spoke in a very serious tone.
"As for immortal beings, they are usually in the desolate immortal realm, so it is even less likely that they are immortal beings."
"Just wandering around aimlessly?" Wang Yao looked at the confident immortal and was utterly speechless. So, if that's the case, then I might also be a wandering immortal? And those immortals strolling around Taiqing Immortal City, are they all wandering immortals? This guy's reasoning is completely illogical.
After listening to the immortal's self-righteous deduction, Wang Yao was too lazy to say anything more to him. Since an immortal had brought news that Hui Shuo had gone to the demon realm, he naturally had to go and see. After all, he had already searched Tiannan Immortal City many times, and the possibility that Hui Shuo was still in Tiannan Immortal City was too slim.
So when Wang Yao saw the question on the registration form, he wrote down the words "searching for a person".
There were still many things to fill in on the registration form, but Wang Yao understood them all. As the saying goes, when in Rome, do as the Romans do. He didn't put on airs and filled in each item carefully before handing the registration form back to the third of his face.
He stepped back slightly, took Wang Yao's registration form with one hand, said "Please wait a moment," and left through the window above the door.
Wang Yao stood there, looking around listlessly. Behind him was a dark tunnel that led all the way to the pitch-black cave where he had taken the elevator out of Tiannan Immortal City.
He originally thought that it was like the eighteenth floor of the underworld, and that he could get out in just a few steps. He thought that there might be cliffs waiting for him after he left the cave, so he not only considered himself a "good person", but also walked very carefully in the cave.
Unexpectedly, as he walked around, he actually walked through a long tunnel, which was somewhat similar to going from the realm of gods to the seventeenth floor of the underworld.
However, the tunnel on the seventeenth floor of the underworld has been quite elaborately decorated, while the tunnel here is completely untouched, with jagged rocks on all four sides, and the traces of its original excavation can still be discerned.
He walked in the dark for a long time before finally reaching the end of the tunnel, only to be blocked by an iron gate. Wang Yao tried knocking on the gate and saw a third of the face, which led to the process of filling out a registration form.
He was looking around when suddenly a small red light by the iron gate lit up. The light kept spinning as it lit up, accompanied by a "whoosh whoosh" alarm sound. Wang Yao was startled, wondering what was wrong with his registration form.
He figured his time as a "good guy" was about to expire, so he quickly added another one for himself. He held his breath and thought to himself that he had come to the demon realm on official business, assigned by the Heavenly Court. If the demons continued to make things difficult for him, he might have to reveal his true colors.
While Wang Yao was preparing for the worst, he peered through the window in the iron gate, only to hear the iron gate creak open slowly in front of him.
"Welcome, Immortal, to the Holy Realm. Please proceed through the detection channel."
A soft female voice suddenly rang in Wang Yao's ears. Wang Yao looked into the iron gate and found that it was also a dark passageway inside, and he couldn't tell how deep it was. It was like an extension of the tunnel behind him.
However, the rotating red light on the iron gate made the surroundings appear and disappear intermittently, adding an eerie atmosphere to the dark tunnel.
"Where did that third of his face go?" Wang Yao wondered.
You know, I had just arrived at the iron gate when that third of his face appeared. It hadn't been long since I got my registration form, so how could that third of his face have disappeared? Judging by the length of the tunnel behind the gate, it doesn't seem short. Could that third of his face have some kind of speed magic?
