The Abyss Realm, the Sea of Chaos.
The blood-red seawater surged, and the blood mist, like congealed blood, almost blocked out all the sunlight, weighing heavily on people's hearts and making it hard to breathe.
The surroundings were eerily quiet, with only occasional low rumbles coming from the mist, like the breath of an ancient behemoth or the wailing of the earth's depths.
"Master, is the young master... really emerging from seclusion today?"
Leng Chan looked at Lin Youyou beside her and asked softly.
The oppressive force of the Chaotic Sea was so strong that her lips appeared somewhat pale.
"Um."
Lin Youyou looked at the surging sea and nodded slightly.
"Not long ago, an unusual phenomenon appeared above the Sea of Chaos, which was a sign that Qingyu was about to emerge from seclusion."
"She thought of it faster than I did, probably because of the disciple assembly in a little over a month."
"Chai Yanchen?"
Leng Chan asked in confusion.
"Yes, as long as Chai Yanchen lives, Qingyu's inner demons will never be eradicated."
"She entered this chaotic sea partly to enhance her strength."
"On the other hand, it is to fully absorb that drop of essence blood in the body."
As she was speaking, her eyes suddenly sharpened.
"They're here."
The next moment, the blood-red ocean, which had been as still as congealed blood, was suddenly stirred up by an invisible giant hand, creating a raging storm.
The blood waves rolled and roared in an irrational and violent manner, splashing blood-red water several meters high.
Leng Chan subconsciously took a step back, her face grim.
The next moment, a figure slowly emerged from the surging, blood-red waves.
She was a young girl with long, brown hair that reached her waist. She was breathtakingly beautiful, yet possessed an indescribable eeriness.
She wore a blood-red gauze dress as thin as a cicada's wing, and against the backdrop of the blood-red waves, she seemed to blend into the ocean.
Her gauze dress fluttered in the wind, but it couldn't conceal her snow-white, crystalline skin, which appeared even paler and more alluring against the blood-red background.
"Young Master..."
Leng Chan's eyelashes trembled.
"After not seeing her for several months, the aura around her has become so terrifying."
Qingyu stepped barefoot on the blood waves. With each step, the blood waves automatically parted, making way for her.
She walked slowly to the shore and saw the two people who had been waiting for her.
Leng Chan quickly took out a long robe and stepped forward to drape it over Qing Yu's shoulders.
After being taken into the Prison Wind Hall by Lin Youyou, she has now become Qingyu's personal guard.
"So, are there any conflicts between the two cultivation methods?"
Lin Youyou asked.
Qingyu simply shook her head indifferently; her expression had remained so cold ever since Yun Sining's death.
Seeing her like this, Lin Youyou could only sigh inwardly.
"I can sense his location."
At this moment, Qingyu suddenly spoke.
Lin Youyou was startled.
"What?"
"After absorbing that drop of essence blood, I can sense Chai Yanchen's location."
"real!"
Her words took Lin Youyou by surprise.
“Yes, that’s not Si Yiqi’s essence blood, or rather, it’s not just her essence blood.”
"What's the meaning?"
Qingyu looked at her, raised her hand, and a layer of blood-red mist slowly condensed.
"This drop of essence blood helped me perfectly fuse the Water Drawing Technique and the Spring Thunder Technique."
“If the Water-Drawing Technique is a legacy left by Si Yiqi, then her essence blood should only contain this one power, not both.”
Upon hearing this, Lin Youyou frowned slightly.
"Could there be an error in the records within the cabinet?"
She was also a little confused; there seemed to be some secrets about this that she was unaware of.
"The inheritance that Chai Yanchen obtained was not Si Yiqi's Water-Drawing Technique."
Qingyu's words are always startling and unforgettable.
"If I really had to put it in terms of something, it seems to be... a kind of power."
She pondered, trying to figure out how to express the thoughts in her mind.
"It was like a magnet that shattered into many small pieces."
“Chai Yanchen got the larger piece, while I got the smaller piece.”
“I could feel his attraction to me; in my eyes, he was as conspicuous as the sun in the night.”
"So, does that mean he can also know your location?"
Lin Youyou asked.
No.
Qingyu shook her head.
“I told you, he got a larger magnet.”
"Fireflies can see the blazing sun, but the sun itself is bright enough that it cannot see fireflies."
"Is that so?"
Lin Youyou seemed to be deep in thought.
"I will never forget his scent; it was as conspicuous as the blazing sun and as foul as a rotting corpse."
Lin Youyou pondered for a moment, then asked.
Where is he?
"In the south, due south."
"The southern part of the Central Abyss Realm is..."
"It's not the southern part of the Central Abyss Realm, it's the southern part of the Central Abyss Realm."
"Other realms?"
Lin Youyou stared wide-eyed.
"Chai Yanchen went to another realm?"
"There's no mistake, I'm absolutely certain he's outside the Central Abyss Realm."
"South of the Central Abyss Realm lies the Southern Flame Realm."
Qingyu said to Lin Youyou.
"I'm going to the Southern Flame Realm. I'll set off now."
After hesitating for a moment, Lin Youyou nodded.
She took out a communication jade talisman and said something.
"Alright, I've already sent people to prepare the flying boat."
How long does it take to get from here to the Southern Flame Realm?
"If all goes well, fifteen days."
"good."
Qingyu didn't say anything more, but just waited quietly.
"By the way, I've already investigated what you mentioned before."
Lin Youyou spoke up.
"Cheng Jinjin of Qingmu Peak was indeed once controlled by her mind."
"The message you received from Si Yiqi inside her tomb was actually manipulated by someone."
"Is it possible to find out who it is?"
Lin Youyou shook her head helplessly.
"No, the other party did it very discreetly."
"Actually, it's self-evident who did it."
Lin Youyou nodded in agreement and then continued.
"Your master's injury..."
She hesitated for a moment when she brought this up.
"How about it?"
For the first time, Qingyu's eyes showed emotion.
"It is said that there is a kind of elixir that can solve this problem, but we have not found any specific information about it."
"On this trip to the Southern Flame Realm, we might be able to search there."
After a long silence, Qingyu let out a soft sigh.
"good."
Then, all three fell silent until Liu Shengyun appeared.
"Master, Young Master, the flying boat is ready and can depart at any time."
Qingyu clenched her fists tightly.
"Chai Yanchen, Southern Flame Realm, I've arrived."
