Chapter 136 Visitors from Fengzhou

Night soon fell over the magnificent Shengjing City, and a sky filled with stars emerged from both sides of Mount Ni.

The tea is slowly drunk, and its bright color gradually fades.

During this time, Ji You sat under the osmanthus tree in the yard and wrote a letter back to Yuan Caiwei, telling her about his recent situation.

He said that he had forgotten the scene of that day, and used delicate brushstrokes to describe what kind of scene he had forgotten.

Meanwhile, Pei Ruyi, Wen Zhengxin and others had finished their tea and decided to leave. Before leaving, they reminded him to stop looking for a fiancée and focus on the autumn fight in the inner courtyard.

Among them, Pei Ruyi's expression was the most serious and earnest.

She also came from Fengzhou and was admitted to the hospital with a place to cultivate immortality, but she was not from a family of immortal cultivators.

Because of the similar experience, she didn't want Fengzhou to finally produce a person with outstanding talent, only to be blocked from entering the door in the end.

Just like her, even though she has entered the upper five realms, she still cannot leave the Tianshu Academy.

Because she did not have the status of an inner court member, even if she entered the upper five realms, she did not have the qualifications to establish a family in Fengzhou relying on the Tianshu Academy.

It is precisely because Fengzhou has no aristocratic families that it will always have the least say in Kyushu.

As a result, the annual taxes are the heaviest, the resources within the territory are also controlled by the other eight states, and the private repair and banditry problems are also the most serious.

Therefore, now Ji You not only represents himself, but also represents Cao Jinsong, Pei Ruyi, and the entire Fengzhou.

If he entered the inner courtyard of Tianshu Academy, according to the Qingyun Immortal Rules, he would be qualified to establish a family and immortal manor registered with Tianshu Academy in Fengzhou.

According to the immortal rules, the aristocratic families established with the support of the immortal sects, in addition to paying their share of taxes to the seven major immortal sects, all other taxes, spirit stones, immortal seedlings and other resources will be controlled by these families.

And the disciples accepted by these noble families and immortal villas will also be eligible to enter the immortal sect to practice Taoism.

Pei Ruyi knew that his junior fellow apprentice had a pure heart and liked to meddle in unfair things.

But no one can rule the world, not even the headmaster of Tianshu Academy.

But if my junior brother can establish a noble family or a fairy manor in Fengzhou, at least he will be able to control Fengzhou. After all, there are no other noble families in Fengzhou, so he is the only one in power.

"Although Junior Brother's temperament is a bit eccentric, he is still very serious in doing things. There is no need to worry too much about him entering the inner courtyard."

Wen Zhengxin has full confidence in Ji You: "He is now in the Tongxuan realm, and he has also learned the sword art of Lingjian Mountain. I don't think there will be any accidents."

Ban Yangshu couldn't help but say after hearing this: "Yes, in the past, I really wouldn't have dared to say that Junior Brother Ji would definitely be able to enter the inner courtyard, but who can match him now?"

"I always feel uneasy..."

"Sister Pei feels uneasy because her expectations are too high. But with Junior Brother Ji's ability, even if I were to take his sword, I might not be able to escape unscathed."

Pei Ruyi nodded slightly, knowing that what Ban Yangshu said was true.

Ji You's fighting ability has never been figured out, whether it was in Qiling, in the previous duel at Baiyutai, or in Lingjian Mountain.

But even what has been demonstrated is beyond the reach of ordinary people in the Tongxuan realm.

Even those who are at the Rong Dao realm would feel nervous when facing his sword intent.

Chu He has not returned to the hospital yet. She has been in Youzhou preparing for the Autumn Fight, but she can't think of what other tricks the Chu family has.

In the dark night, Shengjing, which was under curfew, was already a little deserted, with only the cold moonlight spreading over the streets and alleys.

The summer heat is constantly dissipating, but it still makes it difficult to sleep.

It was not until the second watch that a figure suddenly jumped up from the west gate tower.

His clothes were torn into pieces and he was terrified. He quickly hid in the stove of an abandoned house, his face as pale as earth.

But even though he was so exhausted, he continued to send out his spiritual thoughts to detect any movement around him.

At this moment, the excessive consumption of his spiritual power made his head feel like it was being pricked by needles.

He didn't breathe a sigh of relief until he confirmed that there was no approaching sound, and then endless fatigue surged into his heart.

It felt like a mountain was rushing towards him, crushing all his muscles and bones, and weighing his head down heavily.

After a long time, he finally couldn't control his fatigue and fell asleep accidentally.

At this moment, endless nightmares began to surge into his mind.

"Master, where is my son? Didn't he follow you to Xuanyuan Immortal Mansion to deliver the goods? Why hasn't he returned yet?"

"He has good aptitude and has been left in Xuanyuan Immortal Mansion to cultivate. Don't worry, because you will be sent there in a few days."

"Thank you, Master. I just wonder what kind of skills are being practiced in the manor recently?"

"What's wrong?"

"I always feel that the atmosphere is a bit scary."

"This is a technique bestowed by the Holy Son of the Immortal Palace. Commander Bao, don't worry."

Then the conversation in his dream became countless hazy and uneasy fragments.

Every disciple continuously exuded a faint black aura and numb eyes.

The whole mountain was surrounded by black fog, and countless cattle and sheep died tragically in the dark pits.

There was also the cave that he had accidentally entered, where the disordered flesh and blood stuck to the stone walls kept jumping, each and every strand of flesh spurting out sticky blood.

In an instant, Bao Yongsheng suddenly opened his eyes, his whole body was trembling, and his upper and lower teeth were chattering.

He has this kind of dream every day.

But this was not a delusion caused by his mental disorder, but something he had actually seen.

At this time, Bao Yongsheng was curled up behind a water tank. The bones of his hands holding the long knife were stiff, and his whole body was shrouded in a chill.

Then he looked up in the direction of the bright moon, knowing that further ahead would be the Great Xia Holy Sect's Heavenly Academy.

He was not a disciple of Tian Shu Yuan, so he could not pass through the protective formation of Tian Shu Yuan. He could only wait until dawn to find a disciple of Tian Shu Yuan to take him in.

Disciples of the Heavenly Academy...

Thinking of this, Bao Yongsheng couldn't help but think back to the second year of Taiwu, which was last autumn.

He was coming down the mountain from Fengxian Villa and on his way to Yuyang County to collect tribute, he saw a girl with a brilliant aura on the bank of Baishui River and wanted to take her away and send her to Xuanyuan Immortal Palace.

But who would have known that on that day in the Yuyang County government office, a young man in snow-white clothes, with spiritual energy bursting all over his body, and a surging aura.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Later, the young man entered Tianshu Academy and was brought to Shengjing.

Since then, Bao Yongsheng thought it would be difficult for him to hear news about him again. After all, Shengjing was not very close to Fengzhou, and it was not big news enough to be spread to that remote place.

But who would have thought that not long after, the news that Ji You sensed the heavenly book after being admitted to the hospital spread throughout Yuyang County.

He was in a daze for a long time at that time, not knowing that he had met such a heaven-defying person. He was also worried that his cultivation would become higher and higher, and that he would retaliate against him when he came back.

"Ji You..."

Bao Yongsheng took a deep breath and laughed miserably for a while.

He was now leaning against the wall with his waist in a suspended position so that he could bounce up instantly and silently if he heard the wind.

But precisely because of this posture, his chest and whole body couldn't help shaking when he laughed, and the knife wound on his heart broke free, and blood spurted out.

At the same time, a sharp pain continued to rage in his body, but it did not come from external injuries, but from spiritual energy.

Bao Yongsheng gritted his teeth and hit his lower abdomen hard. The energy almost burst through his body, causing him to spit out a mouthful of black blood uncontrollably.

He didn't know what kind of evil magic this was, he only knew that there was something inside his body that was constantly destroying his spiritual energy.

"Commander Bao's injuries are somewhat fatal."

"But why did you travel all the way to Shengjing even though you were so badly injured?"

Bao Yongsheng's body suddenly froze. He slowly raised his head following the sound and saw a slightly hunched old man standing on the tiles of the deserted house opposite, which were covered with leaves.

The old man had a very conspicuous hooked nose. Although his eyes were very gloomy, he spoke in a pleasant manner.

Bao Yongsheng clenched his knife tightly: "It turns out to be Elder Hong. I came to Shengjing to visit my relatives..."

He knew that Elder Hong was a guest official of the Chu family and had entered the Xuanyuan Immortal Palace with the Holy Son Chu Xian more than ten years ago.

Fengxian Villa was founded by Xuanyuan Immortal Mansion, so it is not wrong to call him elder.

Their owner would send some spiritual treasures to Elder Hong every year, so Bao Yongsheng had met him many times.

"You are seriously injured. Come back with me. My young master will heal you."

"Then can you wait until my family visit is over..."

The old man standing on the roof did not speak, but stood up and landed on the ground, walking towards him step by step.

Seeing this, Bao Yongsheng straightened up, grasped the long sword with both hands, and his voice became extremely trembling: "Elder Hong, what kind of evil magic are the owner of the manor practicing..."

"A new way of immortality, a way of immortality that transcends the way of heaven."

"Since it is the way of immortality, why didn't the Holy Son allow me to come to Shengjing, but instead sent people to chase me all the way here?"

Hong Sisha looked at him expressionlessly: "Because I was afraid of others getting jealous, I didn't want the news to leak out. Do you remember Qiling? So many immortal sects are flocking to it, how can I let them know about this?"

Bao Yongsheng swallowed nervously and said, "Can Elder Hong tell me where this new way of immortality came from? I want to learn it too."

"You have too many questions."

Seeing the person opposite approaching little by little, the knife in Bao Yongsheng's hand trembled constantly.

His realm was not high to begin with. He could act arrogantly in a remote place like Yuyang County, but it was just a pipe dream for him to fight against masters in the upper five realms.

So he knew that he would die tonight.

But he still wanted to figure out what those things were.

He did not believe that it was the so-called new way to immortality, because when he first saw the disordered flesh and blood in the cave, he felt only vicious resentment.

But Hong Sisha did not give him the chance to speak. He suddenly waved his hand violently, and a huge wave of air instantly poured into his forehead.

The powerful energy penetrated directly into his brain, and Bao Yongsheng's eyes broke, blood gushed out from his energy orifices, and his whole body became limp like mud.
