After being homeless, he was picked up by God and brought home to be his husband.

南荒

As night falls, stars are faintly visible behind the mountains. There are several fires lit on the top of the mountain, and a few people are scattered here and there, walking around alternately.

A figure slowly walked out of a cave entrance on the top of the mountain. The man guarding the door immediately came forward. The fifth elder was dressed in a black cloak. He raised his hand to remove his wide hood, handed the crutch in his hand to the man, and said slowly :

"It's still not time yet."

Mu Yan frowned, looked at the cave entrance behind the fifth elder, and said with worry: "But now there is not much time. Tianjing has assembled an army at the border of Wuxu, and may invade Southern Wasteland at any time. We cannot lose Li. With Yuan’s support, if the young master doesn’t wake up, the Elder Council will definitely attack Wuxu.”

The fifth elder sneered coldly and said:

"That group of trash has always only looked at what's in front of them. They are willing to linger at the feet of Tianjing. The young master's soul has been scattered for thousands of years. It is unexpected that he can raise a soul body. They can't find it here yet, let Shen Qi control it. The people under him are on guard, and if the news leaks out, ask him to raise his head and come to see him."

After finishing speaking, the fifth elder turned to look at Mu Yan. The fire crackled, reflecting a fire in his eyes.

"Don't worry too much. The young master has not yet been fully born. It would be a good thing if they really invade the Southern Wilderness."

Mu Yan pondered for a moment and asked doubtfully: "You mean, you want to take advantage of the east wind of this battle?"

There are countless innocent souls on the battlefield. If they can nourish their bodies with resentment and evil thoughts during the battle, and if their souls and bodies are broken, there will no longer be any resistance in this world. At that time, no one in the three realms can stand shoulder to shoulder with them.

That is the most resentful existence in the world. If one day, the soul body is revived in the Tianchi, it will be enough to destroy everything in the world.

The fifth elder sighed calmly, looking up at the sky full of stars, with an inevitable desire in his eyes. He had been planning for this for many years, and he did not hesitate to run away from Liyuan to get a chance of survival.

He spent all his efforts on that secret technique and hid Ning Yi's remnant soul to this day. Wuxu was severely damaged by Tianjing and had to stay in seclusion. He had been waiting for this opportunity for too many years.

He wanted to avenge Liyuan's former humiliation and support Ning Yi to return to the position of Liyuan's sage.

Back then, he watched helplessly as Ning Yi was crushed to ashes in the Dali Palace, and his body was shattered into pieces. He also watched Li Yuan be defeated in the Immortal Killing Campaign, his foundation was lost, and he became a subordinate of Tianjing.

The position of Holy Lord of Liyuan has been vacant till now. When Ning Yi returns to Liyuan, it will be a time of avenging his previous humiliation.

"Does anyone know the whereabouts of Ding'an Zhang now?"

Mu Yan shook his head and said: "Not yet. Ding'an Zhang's whereabouts are still unknown. Shen Yixiao has sent people to investigate inside Tianjing. I believe there will be news in the near future."

"This old immortal, it's not enough for him to die, he still gives such important things to outsiders!"

The fifth elder had a stern look on his face. He took off his cloak and handed it to the man. The silver bell hanging on his waist automatically made a clear sound without any wind.

"After you get the Ding'an seal, don't hurt him first. If the young master wants his body, it must not be damaged. He must be captured alive. Remember?"

Mu Yan nodded and answered yes.

There have been a lot of things going on in Tianjing recently, and everyone in the Metropolitan Procuratorate has been extremely busy. Seeing that a battle is imminent, all the major and minor matters in the Procuratorate Division fall on Yao Zaiyu alone. He is extremely busy and miserable.

He couldn't remember how long it had been since he saw Chu Yitang.

Yao Zaiyu also tentatively asked a few times, but his superiors only asked him to submit all official affairs to the Criminal Division and let Han Yin handle it. As a deputy envoy, he had no say in the matter, so he could only do as he was told.

After staying in the yamen until midnight, his waist almost broke. He put down his pen, stretched out with a hiss, and thumped his back. Everyone in the procuratorate had left. Han Yin disappeared today. , he had to do many things by himself, which wasted a lot of time.

Yao Zaiyu sighed and closed the remaining case files. The yamen was empty. He closed the door and happened to bump into a colleague. He looked tired and weakly greeted Yao Zaiyu: "Deputy Ambassador Yao hasn't left yet? "

"No, I'll go back now."

"Alas," the colleague let out a long sigh, as if he was distressed. He looked back for a while, then approached Yao Zaiyu and complained softly:

"What kind of day do you think it is every day? The admiral barely lives in the Metropolitan Procuratorate. I haven't seen him rest for a moment! Even those of us who are subordinates have to suffer. Who dares not to reach this point? Let’s go!”

Yao Zaiyu patted his shoulder and said comfortingly:

"Admirals have always been like this, and it's hard for you. The brothers in the main office have been working hard recently. Let's get together some other day and have a good time."

"What a gathering! Who has the time to come out for a gathering like this? Besides, the Admiral was not like this earlier. He was more anxious to go back than us. I don't know who has recruited him recently. I am here every day I'm so scared, I'm afraid that if I go in standing up and come out sideways that day, if this continues, who will be able to eat this bowl of rice, so I can go back and take care of myself as soon as possible!"

Yao Zaiyu smiled bitterly and walked with him to the gate, saying as he walked:

"Isn't this our fate as subordinates? The war is about to start, and we won't be allowed to rest much. When this incident is over, you will definitely be promoted to the main office. The admiral has clear rewards and punishments, and he will not treat us badly. Yes, please say less."

"That's true, but that's it..."

The colleague rolled up his sleeves, waved his hands, and said, "I won't say it anymore. It won't be easy for you either. Your adults have been away all day long, and you are tired too. Go back and rest early."

"Okay, please go slower on the road."

Yao Zaiyu stood at the door for a while. The night wind still made him feel a little chilly. Just as he was about to step out of the threshold, he saw a vague figure in the distance walking towards here quickly. His long hair was messy and there was a long road behind him. In the endless darkness at the end, he was dressed in a snow-white robe, like a bright moon cutting through the long night.

He squinted for a long time to identify the person. It wasn't until the person was almost in front of him that he opened his eyes in disbelief. He almost fell down the steps when he lost his balance.

Yao Zaiyu was stunned, jumped down the steps and ran over to stop the person, his face full of surprise.

"Sir? Why are you here in the middle of the night?!"
