The hosting system went on and on, but seeing that Bi Xie wasn't in a hurry at all, it couldn't help but say, "Host, aren't you going to hurry up and set off to chase after them?"
Bi Xie lay lazily on the cold jade bed, crossing his legs: "Is it too late to catch up now?"
“Uh…”, the hosting system thought about it carefully and said seriously, “It’s too late.”
“That solves it,” Bi Xie said with a smirk. “I’ve come up with a brilliant idea. Just wait for Ji Gui’s happiness level to rise. Maybe this world won’t need Jiang Jiang anymore and I can retire gracefully.”
"What idea? Host, please tell me~"
"Only a beautiful woman can charm me. Go away and cool off."
"Alas, so heartless!"
"Have they flown to the top of Immortal Guidance? Come, tell me what the situation is like on the top of Immortal Guidance now?"
"Hmph!" The hosting system snorted arrogantly, then immediately began its explanation with great enthusiasm: "That Supreme Celestial Venerable screamed all the way here. When the big boss put him down, he collapsed to the ground, his voice hoarse like a knife sharpening iron sandpaper, constantly saying that the big boss had mistaken him for someone else—"
"The big boss said he'd recognize him even if he were reduced to ashes, then he tore off the storage bag of the Celestial Venerable Chongyu, wiped away his divine sense, and poured out the contents. Wow, these treasures are practically piled up like a mountain, blinding my eyes! (Ten thousand words omitted here...)"
"The big boss placed the Soul-Nourishing Wood in front of the Celestial Venerable Chongyu. The Celestial Venerable Chongyu's expression changed drastically, and he suddenly tried to snatch the Soul-Nourishing Wood. But the big boss was faster than him, grabbing his throat and crushing the Soul-Nourishing Wood into powder with his other hand."
"The big boss was pinching really hard; the veins on Chongyu Tianzun's forehead were bulging, and he started rolling his eyes like a dead fish."
"The big boss suddenly let go of his hand, and Chongyu Tianzun gulped down several mouthfuls of the cold wind from the bottom of the cliff, coughing incessantly. Suddenly, the big boss plunged a knife into his kneecap, and Chongyu Tianzun's face turned pale with pain—"
"The big boss plunged the knife into Chongyu Tianzun's shoulder blade, sternum, thigh, and sternum again... Chongyu Tianzun bled profusely, his face ashen white, but the big boss smiled wickedly, then used vines to tie Chongyu Tianzun to the cliff at the top of Xianyin Peak, and disappeared for a while..."
The big boss was lazily leaning against a tree branch when suddenly several firebirds swooped down from the sky. My god, those birds were gnawing on the flesh of the Celestial Venerable Chongyu, poking holes in him with every bite! Waaah, so scary! Those birds have such long beaks…”
"Not only the firebirds, but also the golden-feathered vultures and gold-devouring flying ants. My god, I can't even see the head of the Supreme Celestial Venerable anymore. It's terrifying. Those gold-devouring flying ants have burrowed into the head of the Supreme Celestial Venerable and are gnawing on his brain marrow."
"Alright, alright, I need to go throw up for a bit. You can see for yourself, host... *vomits*"
Bi Xie pursed her lips, her expression somewhat indifferent. A moment later, a scene that suddenly appeared in her mind caused a flicker of horror to cross her indifferent eyes.
Although she had prepared herself and even sketched out some images through the descriptions in the hosting system, her heart still skipped a beat when she actually saw the Chongyu Tianzun being devoured by countless spirit beasts and whose physique was no longer discernible.
The screams of the Celestial Venerable Chongyu shattered the heavens, extremely mournful, one after another, like the final roar of someone on their deathbed. Bi Xie felt inexplicably annoyed.
A pine tree grows diagonally from the edge of the cliff; lying on it, one can have a panoramic view of the scene below.
She turned her gaze to Ji Gui, who was lying lazily on a tree branch, trying to discern some emotion in his eyes.
However, there was nothing in his dark eyes—no joy after revenge, no pity, no fear, no excitement, and no... relief.
His expression was blank, so blank that Bi Xie felt he wasn't watching Chongyu Tianzun being devoured by spirit beasts, but rather was deep in thought.
Ji Gui stared blankly at the cliff, his thoughts wandering elsewhere. After a long while, even Chongyu Tianzun's bones were completely devoured. The group of spirit beasts circled the vines for a while before soaring into the sky.
At the bottom of the desolate cliff, only a single vine remains, swaying occasionally.
Ji Gui remained motionless, as if petrified, but the mountain wind whipped up his fiery red robes, indicating that this was not a still painting.
After an unknown amount of time, the man's eyes flickered. He ran his slender fingers along the tree trunk for a while, then untangled the fabric that had been caught. He flew into the air, looked down at the empty cliff from above, and with a smirk, left without looking back.
After Ji Gui had gone far away, a figure suddenly appeared on the top of the Immortal Guidance Peak.
Wen Zhu was still dressed in white, like a jade figure cast from a flawless piece of jade, with a unique charm and extraordinary beauty. However, upon closer inspection, a hint of ruthlessness appeared in her gentle almond-shaped eyes.
He stood quietly on the edge of the cliff for a while, then suddenly laughed coldly, squinting at the direction where Ji Gui had disappeared and muttering, "I didn't expect you to be not only a demonic cultivator, but also the demonic cultivator Ji Gui. I underestimated you."
Clenching his fists, Wen Zhu coldly gripped the jade ring in his hand. "Ji Gui, your master is protecting you now, but I wonder if he will still protect you after your identity as the Demon Ancestor is exposed! I have been expelled from the sect, what right do you have to stay by my side!"
The mountain wind was chilly, but the boy's gaze was colder than the wind itself.
Bi Xie frowned, and after seeing the jade token in Wen Zhu's hand, he guessed what he was going to do.
Strange, didn't the hosting system say that Wen Zhu went to Xianyin Peak with Daoist He Gao? Where is He Gao?
The thought had barely crossed his mind when Wen Zhu sneered and walked toward the side of the cliff. Bi Xie's gaze followed him, and he froze when he saw He Gao Dao Ren lying on the ground, panting heavily with bloodshot eyes.
Wen Zhu broke the spell cast by the Taoist He Gao.
Daoist Hegao immediately glared and cursed, "Wenzhu, what drug did you give me? Give me the antidote! What were you doing just now? Where is the Demon Ancestor?"
Wen Zhu gave a chilling smile: "Naturally, it's a drug that will make you feel like you're in heaven. He Gao, I advise you not to waste your time. This passion-burning drug has already taken effect. The higher the spiritual power, the stronger the drug's effects. It's the same for demonic cultivators. If you tell me now how to kill Ji Gui, I'll find you a female. If you're stubborn—"
The young man glanced coldly at He Gao, whose face was flushed, straightened up and said, "Ji Gui will never go back to the Demon Realm with you to revive the demonic cultivation. As long as my master is in the Golden Light Sect, Ji Gui will never go back to the Demon Realm with you. Why don't you consider me? I know that you demonic cultivators have many techniques and secret treasures that can quickly improve one's cultivation level. As long as it can make me stronger, I am willing to give up anything!"
"You...you're dreaming! Lord Ji Gui harbors demonic ambitions! You're not even worth a single finger of Lord Ji Gui, ah—"
Wen Zhu laughed and stomped her foot hard on He Gao's face, then bent down fiercely and asked, "What did you say? I didn't hear you clearly, why don't you say it again?"
