Chapter 158 Letters
After appeasing the master, Jiang Lisheng asked about the demon again.
She mentioned the forbidden area, "Master, are there any ancient books about demons in the forbidden area? Are there any images?"
"Yes." Yu Wuchen said concisely, "Your uncle Chu just told me that from the description, it is most likely a demon. Although demons are ever-changing, the evil spirit on their bodies is not comparable to ordinary demons of the mind and the devil."
Jiang Lisheng sat up straight at once, "What should we do then?"
"Who knows? Be careful and don't get torn apart by the devil." Yu Wuchen warned her.
Jiang Lisheng: "..."
She couldn't help but ask: "Why don't you take action quickly?"
"What measures should be taken?" Yu Wuchen asked back: "If it is really a demon, the entire cultivation world will unite to fight against it, and there will be countless casualties. Instead of wasting time, it is better to sleep a few more times and live one day at a time."
Jiang Lisheng: "..."
She is an unmotivated master.
She was annoyed, "Shouldn't we quickly find the demon and kill it while it's weak now?"
Yu Wuchen sneered at her naivety, "Silly girl, no matter how weak a demon is, it is still a demon. Instead of looking for it to kill it, you might as well find the gods and see if there are any living gods left to deal with the demons."
Jiang Li choked, "...Then, looking for God? How do we find God?"
"Looking for shit." Yu Wuchen cursed, "Where in the world can I find him? If you have the time to waste, you might as well close the mountain gate, open the mountain protection formation, call back all the disciples, and stay in the mountain from now on."
Jiang Lisheng was speechless. "The devil doesn't look for us, and the gods don't look for us either. So what do you think we should do? Should we ignore the common people in the mortal world?"
"I didn't realize you were so responsible." Yu Wuchen said.
Jiang Lisheng took a breath, "I have eaten so much food from the mortal world, I can't eat it for nothing."
Yu Wuchen cut off the communication card and said, "Well, then you should work hard!"
Jiang Lisheng: "..."
How could she have such a master?
She tapped the communication card again, "Master, can you be more careful? Anyway, I must avenge City Lord Pei and Madam Pei. What do you think we should do if it is a demon?"
Yu Wuchen ignored her.
Jiang Li said angrily, "Master, have you forgotten your responsibility as the leader of Qingxu Sect? To protect Qingxu and to protect the common people. Look at how you are doing now? Don't you feel ashamed?"
Yu Wuchen pretended not to hear.
Jiang Lisheng used his trump card, "Master, if you pretend to be dead again, I will expel you from the sect. You only have me as your disciple. If I leave, you will have no disciple anymore."
Yu Wuchen finally paid attention to her, "How dare you!"
Jiang Lisheng threatened him, "Do you think I dare?"
Yu Wuchen was also angry, "Look at you, what are you doing when you have nothing better to do? Why did you go to Hexin City in the mortal world with Wei Qinglan? You caused such a thing. If you didn't go and didn't eat their food, wouldn't it be out of sight, out of mind?"
Jiang Li choked. This meal was indeed a great price to pay. Who knew that a demon would appear? If it were in the past, she would have immediately taken a detour, ran back to the mountain gate, and hid behind her master as soon as she knew about it. But now it was no longer possible...
She lowered her voice, "I've already eaten it, and now I can't pretend I don't know. Your words are useless." Yu Wuchen snorted, "Just go to Hexin City, collect the souls, and as for helping the Pei family to avenge, tell Pei Rong that there is a long way to go. If it is a demon, it is not just a matter for him and his family, but a major event for the entire cultivation world. How can we decide it with just one word from you and one word from me? We have to wait for Qin Fengxing of Kunlun to come out of retreat, and Pei Tanyi of Taiyi, and then the three of us will meet with the elders of the three sects to discuss. You don't even have any spiritual power, how can you worry about such a big thing? Just pray for yourself and save your life."
Jiang Lisheng thought about it and said, "Why didn't you say so earlier?"
She cut off the communication card and stopped talking to him.
When she was sending the message, she didn't avoid anyone. After she cut off the message card, she looked at Pei Rong and sighed, "You heard it too. If it's really a demon, we have to put off the revenge. It's more important to help your parents collect their souls first."
Pei Rong nodded sadly.
Jiang Lisheng asked Yu Congrong again, "Uncle Yu, since he is a demon, you and Brother Yun and the others..."
"With you. We have to investigate it to find out if it is a real demon." Yu said calmly, "Besides, will the demon only harm the Pei family? It stands to reason that the demon has no good intentions, and the people of the city are no problem."
"That's right." Jiang Lisheng lay on the table, "Then should we ask the brothers and sisters, if it is a demon, are they afraid? Should they go back? Or continue to walk?"
Yu Congrong said: "Kunlun disciples, follow orders, now that you are out, you should know that the danger is unpredictable."
Jiang Lisheng admired, "We Qingxu disciples are not like that. Most of us are very afraid of death."
Xi Jili was helpless, "Senior Sister, how can you belittle our sect like this?"
Jiang Lisheng felt that most of what she said was compliments, and she didn't say all of them, which was to save face for her people. "I'm telling the truth."
Yu Congrong smiled.
The three major sects each have their own characteristics: Kunlun strives for strength, Taiyi is competitive, and Qingxu seeks stability.
Chu Bitu said: "The main reason we followed you out is to protect you."
Jiang Lisheng nodded, "Okay!"
The three of them reached an agreement and continued to head towards Hexin City, but they still had to inform all the disciples who followed them about the evil spirit that wiped out the entire Pei family in Hexin City, which might be a demon. They had to be alert and be careful at all times. They must not be alone on this trip and must not be careless.
Lou Qianyi's face changed when she heard this. She grabbed Jiang Lisheng's sleeve and said, "Senior Sister, you have no spiritual power. Why don't you go back? We will help Master Pei collect his soul."
Jiang Lisheng patted her and said, "Maybe not. After collecting the souls, we will not stay in Hexin City for long. We will leave immediately. Listen to my master on this trip. Saving your life is the most important thing. Safety comes first."
Lou Qianyi nodded, "Okay then!"
After everyone had seen the image drawn by Pei Rong, Jiang Lisheng put the image away, yawned, and walked into the house.
Seeing that she actually went to sleep, Lou Qianyi was convinced, thinking that Senior Sister Jiang was more carefree than all of them. There were demons in the world again, but she didn't seem to be afraid at all and was in the mood to sleep. She couldn't even sit still to practice meditation.
Yu Congrong and Chu Bitumen did not leave, and neither did everyone else. They gathered in the tea room and talked about the topic of gods and demons, which had rarely appeared in the world of immortal cultivation for tens of thousands of years.
Pei Rong sat aside, listening quietly. As for the world of immortal cultivation, he only had a vague understanding of it in the past two days. Now, listening to what they said, it seemed like he was listening to a fairy tale.
Suddenly, he remembered something and stood up.
Lu Shaoling asked next to him: "What's wrong?"
Pei Rong did not answer. He immediately left the tea room and went to find Jiang Lisheng. He remembered that day, in addition to the military token, the sachet sewn by his mother, a few taels of silver, and the jade pendant, he had one more thing on him. It was the letter that Wei Qinglan and Jiang Lisheng left for them when they left. He received it himself at that time and kept it with him ever since.
Monthly ticket, huh?
