A month later.
Zhou Xuanji and the group were far from Great Shang and they entered Juemo Wasteland once again.
“Will we encounter Lin Guanyu again?” The little black snake laid lazily on Small Er’s head as he said.
Small Er tried to shake him off but to no avail.
Beixiao Wangjian smiled proudly, “Our master is so powerful now. I feel that he can fight Lin Guanyu head-on!”
“What a caveman. The title of Beiba Blademaster is not a bluff.”
Daoya Old Man shook his head and smiled. This was the man who defeated him.
Chongming Demon Monarch said with disdain, “His title is a bluff. You guys did not see what a coward he was in front of Xian Xianghua. He was going to pee in his pants…”
The bull demon began boasting, which made Zhou Xuanji roll his eyes.
The coward was not Lin Guanyu, but the bull demon himself!
He never even stood up straight in front of Xian Xianghua before.
“Don’t worry. When I become the Emperor of Great Chen, Lin Guanyu will not be a problem!”
Chen Bantian walked to the back and laughed arrogantly.
This guy was totally different from before. He was fully energetic. There was a strange mark of the Yellow Dragon between his brows.
After the Yellow Dragon’s royal bloodline was awakened, he grew taller by quite a bit. His cultivation jumped three stages into Enlightening, which made the others envy him.
“Forget about it. Take a good look at yourself. No one will submit to you even if you become the Emperor!”
Chongming Demon Monarch said with disdain, which made Chen Bantian angry, but he didn’t dare to speak a word.
Since he was awakened, the bull demon continued to bully him all the more.
Although he was angry, he did not hold a grudge in his heart.
These were his saviors, after all. He had it in his heart to repay the debt.
At the center of the party, Zhou Xuanji was telling Jiang Xue and Huang Lianxin a story.
“And so, Snow White and the Seven Dwarves lived happily ever after…”
After heard this, the two ladies heaved a sigh of relief.
Jiang Xue waved her fist and said with gritted teeth, “The Crown Prince was too despicable. How dare he gang up with the Empress? Fortunately, he was defeated by the seven dwarves.”
Huang Lianxin nodded and sighed, “You are right. The more dignified a man looks, the worse the man is.”
Zhao Congjian, who was walking by the side, shook his head.
He always felt that the story was ridiculous. No Empress in Northern Wilderness Region envied the princess’ beauty.
Xiao Jinghong came back on his sword and landed before Zhou Xuanji. “Revered Teacher, no traces of Xinhao Sect could be found inJuemo Wasteland. From the information I gathered, Beiba Blademaster did not go to Juemo Wasteland recently either.”
Zhou Xuanji nodded. He rubbed his chin as he entered into deep thought.
Now that he was on the wanted list of Great Zhou, Xinhao Sect, Haoqi Alliance, he would run into countless troubles ahead for sure.
After sending Chen Bantian to Great Chen, he would help Zhao Congjian get revenge along the way.
Based on what Daoya Old Man said, as long as the Emperor of Great Chen knew that Chen Bantian awakened the Yellow Dragon’s royal bloodline, he would surely become the heir to the throne.
If the prince possessed the royal bloodline of the Yellow Dragon, Great Chen would welcome a generation of prosperity.
With their current speed, they could only reach Great Chen in three months.
Two hours passed.
A group of monks came from the West. At the forefront was an old monk, who wore a delicate kasaya, and he had a gold staff in his hand.
Daoya Old Man’s eyes brightened and he rushed over immediately.
The group was stunned.
What was happening?
“Old Baldhead, it’s been a long time!” Daoya Old Man said, smiling as he walked up to the old monk.
Seeing him, the old monk smiled. He stroked his long beard and said, “Amitābha, Old Dao, it’s been a long time… 20 years?”
He glanced at Zhou Xuanji and the others who were far away and giggled, “Since Sword God Zhou, who came to fame recently, is here as well, why don’t you introduce him to me?”
Daoya Old Man smiled proudly and waved at Zhou Xuanji and the others.
A commotion broke out among the other monks. They heard about the renowned Sword God Zhou everywhere they went, as long as there were people around.
Soon, Zhou Xuanji and his companions walked up.
“This is Chief Monk Xuanhe of Dongyuan Monastery.”
Daoya Old Man introduced Zhou Xuanji, giggling. The old monk nodded with a smile too.
Dongyuan Monastery!
Xiao Jinghong, Han Shenbo, and the others were shocked.
It was a famed Sanctum!
“Sword God Zhou, who is my grand-disciple, Zhou Xuanji.”
Daoya Old Man wrapped his arm around Zhou Xuanji’s shoulder and said proudly.
“Is he the son of that Zhao Xuan girl?” Chief Monk Xuanhe squinted his eyes and asked. “He really looked like her. No wonder after you killed the Empress of Great Zhou, Emperor Yan of Great Zhou put you on the wanted list instead of coming at you personally.”
Zhou Xuanji frowned slightly. He did not like it when people mentioned the Emperor.
The two old men began chatting.
They had been good friends since they were young. It was a friendship that lasted thousands of years. One became a land god, while the other was a Chief Monk of a noble and prestigious Sanctum.
This became a good tale of the Northern Wilderness Region.
Xiao Jinghong, Zhao Congjian, and the others were pleasantly surprised. They did not expect Daoya Old Man to have such a deep relationship.
It was a pity that none of them mentioned Zhou Xuanji being pursued for his life.
“I’m taking my disciples to Duantian Cliff. Each sect had collaborated to exterminate the remnants of Tanhua Sect. Do you want to go together? With your participation, you can build up your relationship with the upright sects, which will reduce your pressure in dealing with Xinhao Sect and Haoqi Alliance.”
Chief Monk Xuanhe looked at Zhou Xuanji and smiled as he stroked his long beard.
As a Sanctum, Dongyuan Monastery did not like to fight secular wars.
He was only on this mission because Tanhua Sect was involved.
“Remnants of Tanhua Sect? Xian Xianghua is there too?”
Zhou Xuanji asked curiously. Karma for the old demonic woman?
Chief Monk Xuanhe nodded and smiled, “Yes, she’s there. This demonic woman just slaughtered an entire city. No one knew where she found the Soul Nurturing Bead. She intends to use it to awaken her father, Ancient Diablo. Once she succeeds, the world will face a great calamity.”
Ancient Diablo!
Just from his name, one would realize that this was not a small matter.
Zhou Xuanji and the others’ expression was a little strange.
The Soul Nurturing Bead was obtained with Zhou Xuanji’s help. If the news of this was spread out, they would be great sinners.
“Xian Xianghua is the top evil cultivator, aren’t you going to get slaughtered by going?”
Chongming Demon Monarch heard about the mighty name of Chief Monk Xuanhe, but know little about him.
Daoya Old Man stared at him and reprimanded him, “My little brother is the Top Monk of the Northern Wilderness Region. Even the Fury Buddha of Great Shang came to him for help. Do you think he can’t deal with Xian Xianghua?”
“1,000 years ago, if he didn’t badly injure Xian Xianghua, do you think Xian Xianghua could remain quiet for so long?”
Top Monk of the Northern Wilderness Region!
The title sounded like a bluff!
“Amitābha, it’s just an empty name.”
Chief Monk Xuanhe shook his head and smiled. But why did that smile look so similar to Daoya Old Man?
So annoying!
“We will not meddle with this. We still need to make our way to Great Chen. You go your way.”
Daoya Old Man giggled, but he thought in his heart that Xian Xianghua would surely tell everyone that Xuanji was the one who obtained the Soul Nurturing Bead for her. By that time, they would have nowhere to go.
Chief Monk Xuanhe nodded and did not persuade further.
The group chatted a while more before departing.
Zhou Xuanji glanced at Chief Monk Xuanhe’s back and asked curiously, “Can he really defeat Xian Xianghua?”
In his heart, Xian Xianghua was someone invincible and unstoppable.
Chief Monk Xuanhe looked amiable, and even the Fury Buddha could not be compared to him.
“He might not be more powerful than Xian Xianghua, but at least he could fight her head-on. Moreover, other than him, there were other powerful cultivators. Tanhua Sect will surely be exterminated this time around.”
Daoya Old Man smiled as he sighed.
