That is, the original owner of this body once had feelings for Bai Zhiyu.
Xiao Tan had always seemed to be obsessed with magic, so it was hard to tell that she liked Bai Zhiyu.
But judging from the way she ignored him and instead talked to Bai Zhiyu, it seemed like she was jealous.
"But... what's the point of ignoring people? Is silence the best form of contempt?" Su Chen felt a little annoyed but couldn't show it.
Hearing the system notification that the task was completed, Su Chen finally gave up on putting on a show of "clinging on and on." She rolled her eyes at the two pretentious characters who had feelings for each other but refused to be together, and left without looking back.
The cultivation world has divided its own regions, which, although located within the human realm, are all located in places blessed with exceptional natural beauty and spiritual energy.
Some immortals will even return to stroll through the markets and restaurants, experiencing the sights and sounds of the human world.
Because they had not yet practiced abstaining from grains, some cultivators also took up the business of running inns and restaurants.
Attracting customers often requires some marketing strategies.
Some offer discounts, some offer songs, and some have specially contracted storytellers.
Su Chen found a teahouse, and heard that the tea and snacks there were good and there were stories to hear.
The storyteller struck the gavel, and all eyes in the audience turned to the stage.
"A thousand years ago, before the gods fell asleep and before all the demons were eradicated, there was a great war between them. The demons of that time were nothing like the demon cultivators of today; their demonic power was sometimes so pure that even the gods could not defeat them!"
"Back then, a great demon appeared and led his demon army to cause chaos in the celestial realm. It took the combined efforts of the gods to force him to the side of the Endless Abyss."
"When that demon makes his move, the sky will instantly darken. Can you guess why?"
Some audience members made guesses.
"The magic is too strong!"
"The sun doesn't want to see him!"
...
There were many different opinions, and the storytellers all shook their heads.
"He covered the entire sky with black feathers," the storyteller explained.
"Sometimes gods need to use light to reach the highest level of magic, while immortals sometimes need to draw on the spiritual energy of heaven and earth when their spiritual energy is insufficient. He covered the sky, so the immortals could not unleash their strongest immortal power."
"This is also why he almost destroyed the Immortal Realm back then."
As the storyteller finished speaking, a child in the audience asked doubtfully, "If he's so powerful, how come he was forced into the Endless Abyss?"
The storyteller stroked his beard and said, "It is said that it was because of distraction."
"Distracted? Why are you distracted?" everyone asked.
"Let's find out in the next chapter."
Su Chen saw the storyteller packing up to leave and quickly stepped forward to stop him. "Sir, do you know the whereabouts of an immortal named Jin Yu who wielded a feather fan a thousand years ago?"
"I don't know." The storyteller said with a straight face, and his hands moved even faster as he finished tidying up.
"He is Fairy Zilu's disciple, and it seems to be her only disciple. You really didn't know?" Su Chen asked quickly.
The storyteller looked impatient. "I said I don't know, so I don't know."
Su Chen: "Then, sir, could you tell me where the Endless Abyss is?"
The storyteller paused, "The demonic energy in that place is so strong that even gods can't contain it. Ordinary people who get close will fall seriously ill or even die. You, a female cultivator who has just established her foundation, want to go there?"
Su Chen: "Hmm, I heard you say earlier that the demon can summon feathers that blot out the sun, so..."
The storyteller frantically waved his hands: "Don't go! Absolutely don't go! That demon..."
"What? The demon you were talking about isn't dead?" Su Chen exclaimed in surprise.
The storyteller realized he had spoken out of turn, ignored her, and walked away with his bundle.
