After leaving the Izumo Secret Realm, after everyone said goodbye, they catapulted away in all directions.
There are those who travel together, and there are also lone rangers.
"Senior Sister, that space is actually the Izumo Secret Realm."
"The secret realm can actually be controlled by monks? Before this, it was almost unheard of!"
"Hey, tell me, that Immortal Shen, how strong is he now?"
"I heard that when he left Cloud Firmament Sect, his strength was only at the stage of Mahayana."
"But? How many Mahayana monks are there in our entire cultivation world?"
"I don't know now, maybe... Maybe he has broken through to the tribulation stage?"
"If it's true, then in our immortal cultivator camp, there are two great powers who can overcome the tribulation period!"
"And they are all members of Yunxiao Sect."
"To be more precise, there are three of us here! Have you forgotten that the man next to Shen Xianchang, if I guessed correctly, that man must be the Demon Emperor Pei Zhiyu!"
"Huh? So the relationship between the two of them is actually real? I thought it was all deliberately arranged by his rival!"
"Well, if you think about it this way, the two of them can be regarded as talented and handsome."
Suddenly, a hesitant voice thought, "As far as I know, it seems that only real immortals can open up such a secret realm."
Everyone looked at the girl who spoke just now. She had an ordinary appearance and was easily overlooked. However, at this moment, everyone looked at her very passionately.
"really?"
For monks of low strength like them, the monks of the Mahayana period, in their impression, are basically no different from immortals.
And those people who went to the transcending tribulation stage, loose immortals, and even ascended to immortals were basically no different from the mythical figures in the legends.
So, they don't understand the difference.
"Me too... I heard from the elders." The plain-looking girl said unhurriedly, "The monks in the tribulation stage can open up their own space, just like... the storage bags we often use , but it is many times more advanced than the storage bag. And it is not afraid of losing it."
"It's so convenient." Someone sighed with emotion.
The others also nodded in agreement, "Yes, it's really convenient..."
"However, this kind of space can only hold dead objects. If you put a living person in it, you will be suffocated to death."
"Yeah—so dangerous?"
"The space opened up by Sanxian is better, but if it takes a long time, it is basically difficult to survive. Only real immortals can even form a new small world in the space opened up by them."
"Huh? Then you mean, our world may be a world that was randomly opened by a certain immortal many years ago?"
"I can only say that there is such a possibility." The plain-looking woman nodded, "So, now that I look at the Izumo Secret Realm, it is very likely that it is the inheritance of a fairy, and this secret realm is what he told himself. A gift from a disciple."
Everyone looked at each other for a while, and finally, someone hesitated and said, "But...we already knew about this matter?"
"Then have you thought about another possibility?"
"What is possible?"
"Since it is an inheritance secret realm opened up by an immortal, if someone inherits his inheritance, then... wouldn't this immortal also come to our world through this Izumo secret realm?"
"How is this possible!" Yes, it has never been heard that a fairy who has ascended can return to the lower realm. "
"If it was in the past, I wouldn't believe it." The plain-looking woman said slowly, "But, have you ever thought about how Shen Xianchang returned from the time-space rift?"
"Because... he is the master of this secret realm, so he can..."
"Yes, Immortal Shen is the master of this secret realm now, but who was the master of this secret realm in the past?"
"That... unknown fairy."
"That also means," she said slowly, "now, behind Immortal Shen, there may be an immortal who can come to the lower realm at any time to support him."
"But... what are you telling us... what are you going to do?"
"It's nothing." The woman said softly, "I'm just afraid that some people will be ungrateful."
"What are you talking about? How can we be so heartless?"
"People's words are awesome. I hope you can remember who saved us at the risk of being in the secret territory of the demons."
After finishing speaking, the woman said no more, turned around and left quickly.
After walking away, the ordinary-looking woman suddenly stopped in her tracks. She smiled softly, "People's hearts are changeable, and there is only this that I can do."
-
Shen Guantang and Pei Zhiyu didn't know this. After leaving the Izumo Secret Territory, the two of them rushed to Ye's Garden as soon as possible without wasting any time.
Pei Zhiyu really wanted to have some more tenderness with Shen Guantang, but...Shen Guantang was worried that the night would be full of dreams, so he pushed him away.
Pei Zhiyu felt very unhappy, but he also understood Shen Guantang's temperament, so he could only follow in the end unhappy.
It was already night when they arrived at Ye's Garden.
The bright moon hangs high, and in Ye's Garden, only a few rooms are lit.
In this deep mountain, it looks more and more weird.
"I remember that there are quite a few people in Ye's garden." Shen Guantang said softly.
Pei Zhiyu clasped Shen Guantang's hand, nodded and said, "It's weird."
"Then Liu Ye and Cen Luo..." Shen Guantang's heart skipped a beat, "Will they be in danger?"
"Don't worry." Pei Zhiyu comforted, "The more anxious you are, the more mistakes you will make, A Tang, you taught me this before."
"I know." Shen Guantang held Pei Zhiyu's hand tightly.
He thought with some annoyance, knowing that Ye Fengshan was deeply involved with the Shi family in Guanghua Mansion, why did only Liu Ye and Cen Luo remain?
However, who would have imagined that the plan could not keep up with the changes, and after the design was taken away, he and Pei Zhiyu also experienced too many things.
-
Inside Ye's Garden.
There was a young man sitting opposite Ye Fengshan. He had a bit of arrogance in his eyes, and he was quite gracious in his gestures. He seemed to be the son of a big family.
Ye Fengshan asked worriedly, "Brother Shi, I still feel..."
Hearing this, the man opposite him put down the teacup in his hand and laughed, "Brother Ye, you were scared out of your wits by those two people, right?"
Ye Fengshan was silent.
Shi Zheng smiled, "Brother Ye, don't worry. Now that your strength has recovered, won't you run if you can't beat it? What's more..."
After a short pause, the man said meaningfully, "Before, you suffered a big loss because of the sudden incident, but now..."
"Hmph." Shi Zheng snorted coldly, "You Yunxiao Sect and our Guanghua Mansion are a strong alliance. Even if you can't catch him, you can definitely inflict a heavy blow on them!"
"Besides, I still have a secret weapon."
"What secret weapon?" Ye Fengshan was curious.
However, Shi Zheng deliberately made a detour, "I can't tell you this in advance, in short, as long as Shen Guantang and the others dare to come, they will wait to stay here completely today!"
Ye Fengshan still hesitated to speak.
He really wanted to say that Shi Zheng might not have seen the power of Shen Guantang before, so it was so easy to talk about it now.
The more Ye Fengshan thought about it, the more he felt that Shi Zheng's so-called plan was very unreliable, but because of the relationship between them, he couldn't say it outright, so he could only make insinuations.
However, Shi Zheng seemed to be completely dazzled by that plan. No matter what Ye Fengshan hinted, he didn't seem to understand. He just kept comforting Ye Fengshan and let him relax.
But the more this happened, the more Ye Fengshan felt like he was sitting on pins and needles.
He has even started to think about it, otherwise, why not run away by himself when Shi Zheng is not paying attention?
Anyway, the dantian that was destroyed before has been completely restored. Although he had to turn to cultivating demons afterwards, it was better than becoming a useless person.
And when Ye Fengshan lowered his head, thinking about the possibility of his escape, Shi Zheng's mouth showed a sneer, and there was a little more pity in his eyes looking at Ye Fengshan.
It's so pitiful, Shi Zheng thought in his heart, at this moment, he doesn't even know that he has become a victim.
However, it's a brotherhood anyway, don't worry, after you die, I will definitely avenge you.
-
"I really didn't expect that I would be counted twice when I came to this Ye's garden twice." Shen Guantang said helplessly.
Pei Zhiyu chuckled, looking at Shi Zheng as if he was looking at a dead person.
"Since they want to play so much, Ah Tang, why don't we play with them, how about?"
"Let's rescue Liu Ye and Cen Luo first." Shen Guantang reminded Pei Zhiyu.
Pei Zhiyu laughed lightly, "Of course, I listen to A Tang."
"Actually, I'm also quite curious about what Shi Zheng's secret weapon is." Shen Guantang said thoughtfully, "He seems to be very confident that that secret weapon can deal with a monk at the Mahayana stage and a monk at the tribulation stage .”
The corners of Pei Zhiyu's lips curled up slightly, "A Tang and I thought about going together."
The two looked at each other, then laughed slowly.
"Shi Zheng really doesn't have a long memory." Pei Zhiyu said slowly, "I just don't know if the magic heart stone can make up for his dantian that was broken twice."
"However, the most urgent task right now is to find out the whereabouts of Liu Ye and Cen Luo." Shen Guantang said.
For Shen Guantang, this is not a difficult task.
Because Liu Ye and Shen Guantang's fingertips are bound by a contract, it is natural to find someone faster at this time.
Following the contract, Shen Guantang and Pei Zhiyu came to the capital of Guanghua Mansion.
Looking at the luxuriously decorated Guanghua Mansion, the two of them did not force their way in. Instead, they found a tea shop nearby, ordered a pot of tea, and sipped it slowly.
The reason why Shen Guantang didn't force his way in was because of Cen Luo.
There was a contract between him and Liu Ye, and he could quickly locate her location, but he and Cen Luo didn't have such a contract, so naturally he couldn't locate Cen Luo's position.
And they were not sure that Cen Luo and Liu Ye would be locked in the same place.
Therefore, the best way at present is to find out the exact location of the two people's detention before making any plans.
Before coming, both Shen Guantang and Pei Zhiyu had disguised themselves, so after entering the tea shop, no one recognized them.
While drinking tea and observing the situation in the inner mansion, Shen Guantang's hand drinking tea suddenly paused, and he heard his name.
Not far from them, several tea drinkers were chatting while drinking tea.
"I heard that Elder Shen who fled from Yunxiao Sect recently got news again."
"Oh? What's the news?"
"Ahem, I just heard, I heard ha!" The man took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, and then continued, "I also heard that my wife's cousin's cousin's aunt's brother What my brother-in-law said, it seems... this elder Shen has something to do with the demons again."
"Hiss—the Demon Race?"
"Could it be that Elder Shen is bewitched?"
"I don't know about that," the man took a sip of tea, and said unhurriedly, "I just heard that someone was caught in the secret realm of the demons, and I happened to see him driving black vines, killing many people. Grab it and throw it somewhere."
"I heard that almost all the sects and families of those monks went to Yunxiaozong, clamoring for Yunxiaozong to give an explanation."
"But hasn't Shen Guantang already left Cloud Firmament Sect?"
"Yes, yes, they will go to Yunxiaozong to make trouble again, it will be unreasonable, right?"
"Hey, who said it wasn't?" The narrator threw a piece of tea into his mouth, swallowed it slowly, and said, "The Yunxiao Sect is indeed righteous, although Shen Guantang has betrayed the sect, but After being approached by others, they did not refuse, saying that they would definitely give them an explanation."
"Did you give me that statement?"
"I'm not sure about that, I don't believe it yet."
"Hey, it's just talking, what's the big deal, if you really want to say it, I will too!"
"Don't yell, anyway, I heard the news soon, maybe... there will be a Ten Thousand Sects Conference with the other two sects!"
"Eighty percent of this matter will be discussed at the Wanzong Conference."
-
Shen Guantang put down the teacup in his hand, thinking silently, he didn't know whether what the man said was true or not.
"It's simple." Pei Zhiyu communicated with Shen Guantang with his spiritual sense, "After the man leaves the tea shop later, I will tie him up. Come to think of it, he dare not tell the truth."
Shen Guantang: ...
He sighed silently.
How should I put it, Pei Zhiyu's methods are always very simple and crude, but useful.
But what neither of them expected was that after the man left the tea shop, he sneaked into the Shi's house in the inner mansion through a small door.
"So it's from the Shi family." Shen Guantang was slightly taken aback.
Seriously speaking, there are many grievances and grievances between Shen Guantang and the Shi family.
Ye Li and the others were once harassed and hunted down by members of the Shi family, while Shen Guantang directly abolished a very potential heir of the Shi family.
But if you look into it carefully, if the Shi family didn't take the initiative to provoke them, they would not step by step, and the hatred would deepen and deepen.
"We still have to act as soon as possible." Shen Guantang whispered to Pei Zhiyu, "Although Liu Ye is still alive, but..."
Who knows what the Shi family will do to Liu Ye?
Being alive and being alive are completely two different concepts.
And with Shi Zheng's hatred for him, Shen Guantang was really worried that something bad would happen to Liu Ye.
As for Cen Luo...
Shen Guantang has quickly passed on his whereabouts to Wan Jianmen, and made two-handed preparations.
It would be better if Cen Luo and Liu Ye were locked together.
When Shen Guantang was seriously making plans, Pei Zhiyu suddenly said, "Ah Tang."
"Huh?" Shen Guantang raised his head and looked at Pei Zhiyu suspiciously.
Seeing that Pei Zhiyu remained silent, Shen Guantang asked strangely, "What's wrong?"
Pei Zhiyu was silent for a while, then suddenly said slowly, "A Tang, it is probably their greatest luck to have entered into a contract with you."
Shen Guantang was slightly stunned, "Why do you say that?"
Pei Zhiyu sighed, and said slowly, "Ah Tang, do you know what the end result will be for other demon cultivators who have made contracts with the human race?"
"Since you asked this question, their ending... probably isn't very good?"
"Yes." Pei Zhiyu nodded, "Ah Tang."
Pei Zhiyu seemed to want to say something, but in the end he endured it. This node is not suitable.
Although Shen Guantang felt a little strange about Pei Zhiyu's strange behavior, he didn't take it too seriously.
He only thought it was Pei Zhiyu's property and hurt him.
But there are some things that cannot be easily changed by one person.
The hatred between the human race and the monster race did not form overnight, but after thousands of years of accumulation, it resulted in the current consequences.
And even Shen Guantang himself didn't know where to start to resolve this hatred.
However, since other people cannot be changed, Shen Guantang felt that he should start with himself.
-
In fact, with their current strength, it is not difficult to save people.
The strength of the Palace Master of Guanghua Mansion is at most only in the out-of-body stage, and in front of the two of them, it is really not enough.
However, to be on the safe side, Shen Guantang still made a detailed plan.
Pei Zhiyu didn't pay attention to the people in Guanghua Mansion, and even felt that Shen Guantang's so-called plan was a bit redundant.
Thinking about it, Pei Zhiyu carefully wrote down the contents of the plan.
After all, it was the first time that two people acted together in such a formal way after confirming their relationship, and Pei Zhiyu felt that it was very commemorative.
Everything is going on in an orderly manner.
But before the plan officially started, Shen Guantang suddenly felt restless.
"Ayu." Shen Guantang grabbed Pei Zhiyu's hand.
"What's wrong?" Pei Zhiyu grabbed Shen Guantang's hand suddenly, and asked with concern, "What's wrong? Or..."
"No." Shen Guantang frowned, "I'm fine, it's just that... I suddenly felt flustered for no reason."
"Panic?" Pei Zhiyu's eyes flickered, and he said in deliberation, "A Tang, why don't I go in person this time, and you stay here and wait for me, how about it?"
"Then how can I do it?" Shen Guantang raised his head, frowned and said, "We clearly agreed..."
"But look at your current appearance." Pei Zhiyu brought Shen Guantang's hand to his lips, kissed it lightly, and said seriously, "Ah Tang, the higher the realm, the stronger the prediction of oneself. "
"Although that won't let you know what will happen next, it will allow you to instinctively avoid some life-threatening dangers."
"You mean, I'm flustered because my instinct foresees danger?"
"Yes." Pei Zhiyu nodded affirmatively.
"Then I can't let you go alone!" Shen Guantang grabbed Pei Zhiyu's hand suddenly, and said firmly, "I know that there may be danger, but let you take the risk alone, Ayu, I can't do it."
Pei Zhiyu sighed softly, "But, Ah Tang, if I don't go, what will happen to Liu Ye and Cen Luo?"
Shen Guantang suddenly fell into a dilemma.
He must save Liu Ye, but he can't just watch Pei Zhiyu take risks.
After hesitating for a while, Shen Guantang said cautiously, "Since I know that this plan may be dangerous, then... I will be more vigilant, maybe it's just a..."
"No."
Before Shen Guantang finished speaking, he was directly rejected by Pei Zhiyu.
"Ah Tang." Pei Zhiyu tightened his grip on Shen Guantang's wrist, his golden eyes fixed on him, "You know, I definitely won't agree."
Being able to make Shen Guantang have that kind of dangerous prediction is enough to show that there is a danger that can threaten Shen Guantang inside Guanghua Mansion.
How could Pei Zhiyu let Shen Guantang take risks?
Don't say that the person inside is Liu Ye, even if the person trapped inside is himself, at this moment, Pei Zhiyu will not allow Shen Guantang to act.
Shen Guantang also did not expect that things would develop like this.
The two suddenly fell into a stalemate.
When it came to Shen Guantang's safety, Pei Zhiyu's attitude became extremely tough in an instant. In a word, he either went by himself or avoided talking about it.
Shen Guantang was out of breath, and simply kicked Pei Zhiyu's calf, "Pei Zhiyu!"
After being called by his full name, Pei Zhiyu didn't back down, he even grabbed the ankle that Shen Guantang kicked over, and moved it up, "Don't kick there, it's all bones, be careful that your foot hurts."
Shen Guantang: ...
He crushed his foot a few times angrily, and pulled his foot back forcefully.
-
After calming down for a while, Shen Guantang coughed lightly, breaking the silence between them.
"Ayu, do you still remember the conversation between Ye Fengshan and Shi Zheng?"
"remember."
"Shi Zheng said that the Shi family has a secret weapon. What do you think is the secret weapon they are talking about?" Shen Guantang lowered his eyes, "I guess, it may be some kind of magical weapon against me, or even... an immortal weapon .”
Pei Zhiyu frowned, "Why can't it be a human?"
"I have thought about it," Shen Guantang nodded, "but in this cultivation world, there are very few people who can pose a threat to us. And these people are all powerful in various sects, would they make such an easy move? What else can the family offer to attract these people?"
"They really do."
"Ah?" Shen Guantang turned his head, "What is it?"
I do not know how?
"A Tang, have you forgotten?" Pei Zhiyu said seriously, "Magic Heart Stone."
Shen Guantang froze for a moment, his eyes widened instantly.
"The magic heart stone can help repair the damaged dantian and meridians. This alone is enough to make countless people flock to it." Pei Zhiyu's voice was very calm.
However, to Shen Guantang's ears, he felt a little shuddering.
"Shi Zheng is abolished, everyone knows it, but now, he is the best advertisement."
After a modern trip, when Pei Zhiyu chatted with Shen Guantang, a few modern words would come up occasionally.
"Not only Shi Zheng, but also... Ye Fengshan." Shen Guantang murmured.
"That's right." Pei Zhiyu lightly stroked Shen Guantang's finger, "If this is used as bait, there is no guarantee that no one will bite."
"So, Ah Tang, let's take a long-term view." Pei Zhiyu said.
Shen Guantang weighed it for a while, then suddenly jumped off the table.
"A Tang?"
"Go to Ye's Garden." Shen Guantang said, "They don't know that we have returned, maybe... they can learn something from Ye Fengshan."
After finishing speaking, he turned his head back, "This...shouldn't it be regarded as personal accusation?"
Pei Zhiyu chuckled, held Shen Guantang's hand, and said softly, "It doesn't count."
-
The reason why Ye Fengshan and Shi Zheng were not moved before was to avoid alarming the enemy, and to prevent the Shi family from transferring the place where Liu Ye and the others were imprisoned.
This time, the snake had to move.
However, when they came to Ye's Garden again, Shen Guantang and Pei Zhiyu noticed a strong smell of blood.
The two looked at each other, seeing shock and doubt in each other's eyes.
"Go and have a look first." Shen Guantang said.
Pei Zhiyu nodded, took Shen Guantang's hand, and said solemnly, "There must be something weird about this."
As the distance gradually narrowed, the bloody smell suddenly became more intense.
The entire Ye's Garden was brightly lit, almost every room was lit up, and the lanterns on the porch were next to each other, emitting a pale light.
The yard was strewn with dead bodies.
On their faces, the expressions of the moment before they died remained, including shock, fear, and bewilderment.
"They shouldn't have died for too long." Shen Guantang squatted down, his feet were covered with blood, and the hem of his clothes was also stained by the blood on the ground.
"Yeah." Pei Zhiyu stood up, frowning tightly, "The people who attacked were very vicious, almost cutting their throats with a knife."
After carefully examining the expressions on the faces of the corpses and the fatal injuries, Shen Guantang pondered, "Most of them were shocked, and some were at a loss, probably...the attack this time was very unexpected."
"It's also possible...they knew the person who did it, and they believed that the person who did it would not hurt them, that's why they were so shocked before they died."
"According to the order in which these corpses fell, the massacre should have started here at first."
Shen Guantang and Pei Zhiyu walked into the main hall.
Ye Fengshan was sitting at the top, his throat was slit, a large amount of blood gushed out, soaked his clothes, and dyed most of his upper body red.
Surprise and disbelief remained on his face.
Shen Guantang glanced around, and said slowly, "The murderers should be a group of people."
Pei Zhiyu agreed with Shen Guantang's judgment. He pointed to Ye Fengshan and then to the corpses outside, "These people should have been killed at the same time. There is no trace of resistance."
"It seems that the strength of those people who caused the tragedy cannot be underestimated." Shen Guantang bent slightly and observed Ye Fengshan carefully, "This is the only fatal injury on his body."
Although Ye Fengshan's dantian was abolished once before, after Shen Guantang and Pei Zhiyu came back from the modern world, he had already repaired his dantian with the magic heart stone. As for who provided the magic heart stone... except for the people behind Ye Fengshan he thinks.
"Perhaps... the people behind Ye Fengshan deliberately silenced it?" Shen Guantang guessed.
Now that Liu Ye and Cen Luo were imprisoned by the Shi family, Ye Fengshan had no scruples and might pass on news to the people behind him.
"If you think so, then what happened to us in the secret territory of the Demon Race can also be explained." Shen Guantang pondered.
"Knowing that you and I got in, so...they would rather destroy that demon secret realm directly than kill us."
"It's just a pity that they failed."
"But there's another thing that doesn't make sense."
Shen Guantang frowned, "How do they know we're back?"
If it is confirmed that he and Pei Zhiyu have died in the secret realm of the demon clan, there is no need to silence Ye Fengshan.
"Perhaps... those monks who were rescued leaked the news." Pei Zhiyu said.
After the two of them left, they rushed directly to Ye's Garden, and made a disguise when they went to Guanghua Mansion. Logically speaking, they shouldn't be known?
"contract."
"what?"
Pei Zhiyu looked at Shen Guantang, and said in a deep voice, "The contract between you and Liu Ye."
Shen Guantang hesitated for a while, "But, that contract is one-way..."
Next, Shen Guantang didn't speak again, he also understood what Pei Zhiyu meant.
They can confirm Shen Guantang's safety by monitoring the status of Liu Ye.
If Shen Guantang dies, then Liu Ye, who signed the one-way contract, will completely get rid of the contract's control.
When Shen Guantang and Pei Zhiyu were in modern times, the contract reaction between Liu Ye and Shen Guantang was very subtle, like a silk thread that was stretched to the limit, and it seemed that it would be completely broken with a little force.
At that time, almost everyone thought that Shen Guantang would not last long in the space-time rift.
However, Shen Guantang's vitality was beyond everyone's expectations.
The thread connecting the contract is very thin, but it has never been completely broken.
When Shen Guantang and Pei Zhiyu returned from the real world, the originally weak contract suddenly stabilized again.
"He is back."
-
"In that case, wouldn't Liu Ye and the others be very dangerous?"
"A Tang!" Pei Zhiyu grabbed Shen Guantang's wrist and said in a deep voice, "I'll go with you."
"Don't refuse." Before Shen Guantang could speak, Pei Zhiyu said quickly, "You know, I can't let you go alone."
Time was running out, Shen Guantang no longer hesitated, both of them increased their speed to the extreme, but in the blink of an eye, they came to the door of Shi's house.
Relying on the contractual relationship with Liu Ye, Shen Guantang and Pei Zhiyu went straight to the place where Liu Ye was being held without any pause.
In the dark night, suddenly, a large piece of light lit up.
A familiar female voice sounded slowly, "Fellow Daoist Shen, I have been waiting for you for a long time."
There are those who travel together, and there are also lone rangers.
"Senior Sister, that space is actually the Izumo Secret Realm."
"The secret realm can actually be controlled by monks? Before this, it was almost unheard of!"
"Hey, tell me, that Immortal Shen, how strong is he now?"
"I heard that when he left Cloud Firmament Sect, his strength was only at the stage of Mahayana."
"But? How many Mahayana monks are there in our entire cultivation world?"
"I don't know now, maybe... Maybe he has broken through to the tribulation stage?"
"If it's true, then in our immortal cultivator camp, there are two great powers who can overcome the tribulation period!"
"And they are all members of Yunxiao Sect."
"To be more precise, there are three of us here! Have you forgotten that the man next to Shen Xianchang, if I guessed correctly, that man must be the Demon Emperor Pei Zhiyu!"
"Huh? So the relationship between the two of them is actually real? I thought it was all deliberately arranged by his rival!"
"Well, if you think about it this way, the two of them can be regarded as talented and handsome."
Suddenly, a hesitant voice thought, "As far as I know, it seems that only real immortals can open up such a secret realm."
Everyone looked at the girl who spoke just now. She had an ordinary appearance and was easily overlooked. However, at this moment, everyone looked at her very passionately.
"really?"
For monks of low strength like them, the monks of the Mahayana period, in their impression, are basically no different from immortals.
And those people who went to the transcending tribulation stage, loose immortals, and even ascended to immortals were basically no different from the mythical figures in the legends.
So, they don't understand the difference.
"Me too... I heard from the elders." The plain-looking girl said unhurriedly, "The monks in the tribulation stage can open up their own space, just like... the storage bags we often use , but it is many times more advanced than the storage bag. And it is not afraid of losing it."
"It's so convenient." Someone sighed with emotion.
The others also nodded in agreement, "Yes, it's really convenient..."
"However, this kind of space can only hold dead objects. If you put a living person in it, you will be suffocated to death."
"Yeah—so dangerous?"
"The space opened up by Sanxian is better, but if it takes a long time, it is basically difficult to survive. Only real immortals can even form a new small world in the space opened up by them."
"Huh? Then you mean, our world may be a world that was randomly opened by a certain immortal many years ago?"
"I can only say that there is such a possibility." The plain-looking woman nodded, "So, now that I look at the Izumo Secret Realm, it is very likely that it is the inheritance of a fairy, and this secret realm is what he told himself. A gift from a disciple."
Everyone looked at each other for a while, and finally, someone hesitated and said, "But...we already knew about this matter?"
"Then have you thought about another possibility?"
"What is possible?"
"Since it is an inheritance secret realm opened up by an immortal, if someone inherits his inheritance, then... wouldn't this immortal also come to our world through this Izumo secret realm?"
"How is this possible!" Yes, it has never been heard that a fairy who has ascended can return to the lower realm. "
"If it was in the past, I wouldn't believe it." The plain-looking woman said slowly, "But, have you ever thought about how Shen Xianchang returned from the time-space rift?"
"Because... he is the master of this secret realm, so he can..."
"Yes, Immortal Shen is the master of this secret realm now, but who was the master of this secret realm in the past?"
"That... unknown fairy."
"That also means," she said slowly, "now, behind Immortal Shen, there may be an immortal who can come to the lower realm at any time to support him."
"But... what are you telling us... what are you going to do?"
"It's nothing." The woman said softly, "I'm just afraid that some people will be ungrateful."
"What are you talking about? How can we be so heartless?"
"People's words are awesome. I hope you can remember who saved us at the risk of being in the secret territory of the demons."
After finishing speaking, the woman said no more, turned around and left quickly.
After walking away, the ordinary-looking woman suddenly stopped in her tracks. She smiled softly, "People's hearts are changeable, and there is only this that I can do."
-
Shen Guantang and Pei Zhiyu didn't know this. After leaving the Izumo Secret Territory, the two of them rushed to Ye's Garden as soon as possible without wasting any time.
Pei Zhiyu really wanted to have some more tenderness with Shen Guantang, but...Shen Guantang was worried that the night would be full of dreams, so he pushed him away.
Pei Zhiyu felt very unhappy, but he also understood Shen Guantang's temperament, so he could only follow in the end unhappy.
It was already night when they arrived at Ye's Garden.
The bright moon hangs high, and in Ye's Garden, only a few rooms are lit.
In this deep mountain, it looks more and more weird.
"I remember that there are quite a few people in Ye's garden." Shen Guantang said softly.
Pei Zhiyu clasped Shen Guantang's hand, nodded and said, "It's weird."
"Then Liu Ye and Cen Luo..." Shen Guantang's heart skipped a beat, "Will they be in danger?"
"Don't worry." Pei Zhiyu comforted, "The more anxious you are, the more mistakes you will make, A Tang, you taught me this before."
"I know." Shen Guantang held Pei Zhiyu's hand tightly.
He thought with some annoyance, knowing that Ye Fengshan was deeply involved with the Shi family in Guanghua Mansion, why did only Liu Ye and Cen Luo remain?
However, who would have imagined that the plan could not keep up with the changes, and after the design was taken away, he and Pei Zhiyu also experienced too many things.
-
Inside Ye's Garden.
There was a young man sitting opposite Ye Fengshan. He had a bit of arrogance in his eyes, and he was quite gracious in his gestures. He seemed to be the son of a big family.
Ye Fengshan asked worriedly, "Brother Shi, I still feel..."
Hearing this, the man opposite him put down the teacup in his hand and laughed, "Brother Ye, you were scared out of your wits by those two people, right?"
Ye Fengshan was silent.
Shi Zheng smiled, "Brother Ye, don't worry. Now that your strength has recovered, won't you run if you can't beat it? What's more..."
After a short pause, the man said meaningfully, "Before, you suffered a big loss because of the sudden incident, but now..."
"Hmph." Shi Zheng snorted coldly, "You Yunxiao Sect and our Guanghua Mansion are a strong alliance. Even if you can't catch him, you can definitely inflict a heavy blow on them!"
"Besides, I still have a secret weapon."
"What secret weapon?" Ye Fengshan was curious.
However, Shi Zheng deliberately made a detour, "I can't tell you this in advance, in short, as long as Shen Guantang and the others dare to come, they will wait to stay here completely today!"
Ye Fengshan still hesitated to speak.
He really wanted to say that Shi Zheng might not have seen the power of Shen Guantang before, so it was so easy to talk about it now.
The more Ye Fengshan thought about it, the more he felt that Shi Zheng's so-called plan was very unreliable, but because of the relationship between them, he couldn't say it outright, so he could only make insinuations.
However, Shi Zheng seemed to be completely dazzled by that plan. No matter what Ye Fengshan hinted, he didn't seem to understand. He just kept comforting Ye Fengshan and let him relax.
But the more this happened, the more Ye Fengshan felt like he was sitting on pins and needles.
He has even started to think about it, otherwise, why not run away by himself when Shi Zheng is not paying attention?
Anyway, the dantian that was destroyed before has been completely restored. Although he had to turn to cultivating demons afterwards, it was better than becoming a useless person.
And when Ye Fengshan lowered his head, thinking about the possibility of his escape, Shi Zheng's mouth showed a sneer, and there was a little more pity in his eyes looking at Ye Fengshan.
It's so pitiful, Shi Zheng thought in his heart, at this moment, he doesn't even know that he has become a victim.
However, it's a brotherhood anyway, don't worry, after you die, I will definitely avenge you.
-
"I really didn't expect that I would be counted twice when I came to this Ye's garden twice." Shen Guantang said helplessly.
Pei Zhiyu chuckled, looking at Shi Zheng as if he was looking at a dead person.
"Since they want to play so much, Ah Tang, why don't we play with them, how about?"
"Let's rescue Liu Ye and Cen Luo first." Shen Guantang reminded Pei Zhiyu.
Pei Zhiyu laughed lightly, "Of course, I listen to A Tang."
"Actually, I'm also quite curious about what Shi Zheng's secret weapon is." Shen Guantang said thoughtfully, "He seems to be very confident that that secret weapon can deal with a monk at the Mahayana stage and a monk at the tribulation stage .”
The corners of Pei Zhiyu's lips curled up slightly, "A Tang and I thought about going together."
The two looked at each other, then laughed slowly.
"Shi Zheng really doesn't have a long memory." Pei Zhiyu said slowly, "I just don't know if the magic heart stone can make up for his dantian that was broken twice."
"However, the most urgent task right now is to find out the whereabouts of Liu Ye and Cen Luo." Shen Guantang said.
For Shen Guantang, this is not a difficult task.
Because Liu Ye and Shen Guantang's fingertips are bound by a contract, it is natural to find someone faster at this time.
Following the contract, Shen Guantang and Pei Zhiyu came to the capital of Guanghua Mansion.
Looking at the luxuriously decorated Guanghua Mansion, the two of them did not force their way in. Instead, they found a tea shop nearby, ordered a pot of tea, and sipped it slowly.
The reason why Shen Guantang didn't force his way in was because of Cen Luo.
There was a contract between him and Liu Ye, and he could quickly locate her location, but he and Cen Luo didn't have such a contract, so naturally he couldn't locate Cen Luo's position.
And they were not sure that Cen Luo and Liu Ye would be locked in the same place.
Therefore, the best way at present is to find out the exact location of the two people's detention before making any plans.
Before coming, both Shen Guantang and Pei Zhiyu had disguised themselves, so after entering the tea shop, no one recognized them.
While drinking tea and observing the situation in the inner mansion, Shen Guantang's hand drinking tea suddenly paused, and he heard his name.
Not far from them, several tea drinkers were chatting while drinking tea.
"I heard that Elder Shen who fled from Yunxiao Sect recently got news again."
"Oh? What's the news?"
"Ahem, I just heard, I heard ha!" The man took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, and then continued, "I also heard that my wife's cousin's cousin's aunt's brother What my brother-in-law said, it seems... this elder Shen has something to do with the demons again."
"Hiss—the Demon Race?"
"Could it be that Elder Shen is bewitched?"
"I don't know about that," the man took a sip of tea, and said unhurriedly, "I just heard that someone was caught in the secret realm of the demons, and I happened to see him driving black vines, killing many people. Grab it and throw it somewhere."
"I heard that almost all the sects and families of those monks went to Yunxiaozong, clamoring for Yunxiaozong to give an explanation."
"But hasn't Shen Guantang already left Cloud Firmament Sect?"
"Yes, yes, they will go to Yunxiaozong to make trouble again, it will be unreasonable, right?"
"Hey, who said it wasn't?" The narrator threw a piece of tea into his mouth, swallowed it slowly, and said, "The Yunxiao Sect is indeed righteous, although Shen Guantang has betrayed the sect, but After being approached by others, they did not refuse, saying that they would definitely give them an explanation."
"Did you give me that statement?"
"I'm not sure about that, I don't believe it yet."
"Hey, it's just talking, what's the big deal, if you really want to say it, I will too!"
"Don't yell, anyway, I heard the news soon, maybe... there will be a Ten Thousand Sects Conference with the other two sects!"
"Eighty percent of this matter will be discussed at the Wanzong Conference."
-
Shen Guantang put down the teacup in his hand, thinking silently, he didn't know whether what the man said was true or not.
"It's simple." Pei Zhiyu communicated with Shen Guantang with his spiritual sense, "After the man leaves the tea shop later, I will tie him up. Come to think of it, he dare not tell the truth."
Shen Guantang: ...
He sighed silently.
How should I put it, Pei Zhiyu's methods are always very simple and crude, but useful.
But what neither of them expected was that after the man left the tea shop, he sneaked into the Shi's house in the inner mansion through a small door.
"So it's from the Shi family." Shen Guantang was slightly taken aback.
Seriously speaking, there are many grievances and grievances between Shen Guantang and the Shi family.
Ye Li and the others were once harassed and hunted down by members of the Shi family, while Shen Guantang directly abolished a very potential heir of the Shi family.
But if you look into it carefully, if the Shi family didn't take the initiative to provoke them, they would not step by step, and the hatred would deepen and deepen.
"We still have to act as soon as possible." Shen Guantang whispered to Pei Zhiyu, "Although Liu Ye is still alive, but..."
Who knows what the Shi family will do to Liu Ye?
Being alive and being alive are completely two different concepts.
And with Shi Zheng's hatred for him, Shen Guantang was really worried that something bad would happen to Liu Ye.
As for Cen Luo...
Shen Guantang has quickly passed on his whereabouts to Wan Jianmen, and made two-handed preparations.
It would be better if Cen Luo and Liu Ye were locked together.
When Shen Guantang was seriously making plans, Pei Zhiyu suddenly said, "Ah Tang."
"Huh?" Shen Guantang raised his head and looked at Pei Zhiyu suspiciously.
Seeing that Pei Zhiyu remained silent, Shen Guantang asked strangely, "What's wrong?"
Pei Zhiyu was silent for a while, then suddenly said slowly, "A Tang, it is probably their greatest luck to have entered into a contract with you."
Shen Guantang was slightly stunned, "Why do you say that?"
Pei Zhiyu sighed, and said slowly, "Ah Tang, do you know what the end result will be for other demon cultivators who have made contracts with the human race?"
"Since you asked this question, their ending... probably isn't very good?"
"Yes." Pei Zhiyu nodded, "Ah Tang."
Pei Zhiyu seemed to want to say something, but in the end he endured it. This node is not suitable.
Although Shen Guantang felt a little strange about Pei Zhiyu's strange behavior, he didn't take it too seriously.
He only thought it was Pei Zhiyu's property and hurt him.
But there are some things that cannot be easily changed by one person.
The hatred between the human race and the monster race did not form overnight, but after thousands of years of accumulation, it resulted in the current consequences.
And even Shen Guantang himself didn't know where to start to resolve this hatred.
However, since other people cannot be changed, Shen Guantang felt that he should start with himself.
-
In fact, with their current strength, it is not difficult to save people.
The strength of the Palace Master of Guanghua Mansion is at most only in the out-of-body stage, and in front of the two of them, it is really not enough.
However, to be on the safe side, Shen Guantang still made a detailed plan.
Pei Zhiyu didn't pay attention to the people in Guanghua Mansion, and even felt that Shen Guantang's so-called plan was a bit redundant.
Thinking about it, Pei Zhiyu carefully wrote down the contents of the plan.
After all, it was the first time that two people acted together in such a formal way after confirming their relationship, and Pei Zhiyu felt that it was very commemorative.
Everything is going on in an orderly manner.
But before the plan officially started, Shen Guantang suddenly felt restless.
"Ayu." Shen Guantang grabbed Pei Zhiyu's hand.
"What's wrong?" Pei Zhiyu grabbed Shen Guantang's hand suddenly, and asked with concern, "What's wrong? Or..."
"No." Shen Guantang frowned, "I'm fine, it's just that... I suddenly felt flustered for no reason."
"Panic?" Pei Zhiyu's eyes flickered, and he said in deliberation, "A Tang, why don't I go in person this time, and you stay here and wait for me, how about it?"
"Then how can I do it?" Shen Guantang raised his head, frowned and said, "We clearly agreed..."
"But look at your current appearance." Pei Zhiyu brought Shen Guantang's hand to his lips, kissed it lightly, and said seriously, "Ah Tang, the higher the realm, the stronger the prediction of oneself. "
"Although that won't let you know what will happen next, it will allow you to instinctively avoid some life-threatening dangers."
"You mean, I'm flustered because my instinct foresees danger?"
"Yes." Pei Zhiyu nodded affirmatively.
"Then I can't let you go alone!" Shen Guantang grabbed Pei Zhiyu's hand suddenly, and said firmly, "I know that there may be danger, but let you take the risk alone, Ayu, I can't do it."
Pei Zhiyu sighed softly, "But, Ah Tang, if I don't go, what will happen to Liu Ye and Cen Luo?"
Shen Guantang suddenly fell into a dilemma.
He must save Liu Ye, but he can't just watch Pei Zhiyu take risks.
After hesitating for a while, Shen Guantang said cautiously, "Since I know that this plan may be dangerous, then... I will be more vigilant, maybe it's just a..."
"No."
Before Shen Guantang finished speaking, he was directly rejected by Pei Zhiyu.
"Ah Tang." Pei Zhiyu tightened his grip on Shen Guantang's wrist, his golden eyes fixed on him, "You know, I definitely won't agree."
Being able to make Shen Guantang have that kind of dangerous prediction is enough to show that there is a danger that can threaten Shen Guantang inside Guanghua Mansion.
How could Pei Zhiyu let Shen Guantang take risks?
Don't say that the person inside is Liu Ye, even if the person trapped inside is himself, at this moment, Pei Zhiyu will not allow Shen Guantang to act.
Shen Guantang also did not expect that things would develop like this.
The two suddenly fell into a stalemate.
When it came to Shen Guantang's safety, Pei Zhiyu's attitude became extremely tough in an instant. In a word, he either went by himself or avoided talking about it.
Shen Guantang was out of breath, and simply kicked Pei Zhiyu's calf, "Pei Zhiyu!"
After being called by his full name, Pei Zhiyu didn't back down, he even grabbed the ankle that Shen Guantang kicked over, and moved it up, "Don't kick there, it's all bones, be careful that your foot hurts."
Shen Guantang: ...
He crushed his foot a few times angrily, and pulled his foot back forcefully.
-
After calming down for a while, Shen Guantang coughed lightly, breaking the silence between them.
"Ayu, do you still remember the conversation between Ye Fengshan and Shi Zheng?"
"remember."
"Shi Zheng said that the Shi family has a secret weapon. What do you think is the secret weapon they are talking about?" Shen Guantang lowered his eyes, "I guess, it may be some kind of magical weapon against me, or even... an immortal weapon .”
Pei Zhiyu frowned, "Why can't it be a human?"
"I have thought about it," Shen Guantang nodded, "but in this cultivation world, there are very few people who can pose a threat to us. And these people are all powerful in various sects, would they make such an easy move? What else can the family offer to attract these people?"
"They really do."
"Ah?" Shen Guantang turned his head, "What is it?"
I do not know how?
"A Tang, have you forgotten?" Pei Zhiyu said seriously, "Magic Heart Stone."
Shen Guantang froze for a moment, his eyes widened instantly.
"The magic heart stone can help repair the damaged dantian and meridians. This alone is enough to make countless people flock to it." Pei Zhiyu's voice was very calm.
However, to Shen Guantang's ears, he felt a little shuddering.
"Shi Zheng is abolished, everyone knows it, but now, he is the best advertisement."
After a modern trip, when Pei Zhiyu chatted with Shen Guantang, a few modern words would come up occasionally.
"Not only Shi Zheng, but also... Ye Fengshan." Shen Guantang murmured.
"That's right." Pei Zhiyu lightly stroked Shen Guantang's finger, "If this is used as bait, there is no guarantee that no one will bite."
"So, Ah Tang, let's take a long-term view." Pei Zhiyu said.
Shen Guantang weighed it for a while, then suddenly jumped off the table.
"A Tang?"
"Go to Ye's Garden." Shen Guantang said, "They don't know that we have returned, maybe... they can learn something from Ye Fengshan."
After finishing speaking, he turned his head back, "This...shouldn't it be regarded as personal accusation?"
Pei Zhiyu chuckled, held Shen Guantang's hand, and said softly, "It doesn't count."
-
The reason why Ye Fengshan and Shi Zheng were not moved before was to avoid alarming the enemy, and to prevent the Shi family from transferring the place where Liu Ye and the others were imprisoned.
This time, the snake had to move.
However, when they came to Ye's Garden again, Shen Guantang and Pei Zhiyu noticed a strong smell of blood.
The two looked at each other, seeing shock and doubt in each other's eyes.
"Go and have a look first." Shen Guantang said.
Pei Zhiyu nodded, took Shen Guantang's hand, and said solemnly, "There must be something weird about this."
As the distance gradually narrowed, the bloody smell suddenly became more intense.
The entire Ye's Garden was brightly lit, almost every room was lit up, and the lanterns on the porch were next to each other, emitting a pale light.
The yard was strewn with dead bodies.
On their faces, the expressions of the moment before they died remained, including shock, fear, and bewilderment.
"They shouldn't have died for too long." Shen Guantang squatted down, his feet were covered with blood, and the hem of his clothes was also stained by the blood on the ground.
"Yeah." Pei Zhiyu stood up, frowning tightly, "The people who attacked were very vicious, almost cutting their throats with a knife."
After carefully examining the expressions on the faces of the corpses and the fatal injuries, Shen Guantang pondered, "Most of them were shocked, and some were at a loss, probably...the attack this time was very unexpected."
"It's also possible...they knew the person who did it, and they believed that the person who did it would not hurt them, that's why they were so shocked before they died."
"According to the order in which these corpses fell, the massacre should have started here at first."
Shen Guantang and Pei Zhiyu walked into the main hall.
Ye Fengshan was sitting at the top, his throat was slit, a large amount of blood gushed out, soaked his clothes, and dyed most of his upper body red.
Surprise and disbelief remained on his face.
Shen Guantang glanced around, and said slowly, "The murderers should be a group of people."
Pei Zhiyu agreed with Shen Guantang's judgment. He pointed to Ye Fengshan and then to the corpses outside, "These people should have been killed at the same time. There is no trace of resistance."
"It seems that the strength of those people who caused the tragedy cannot be underestimated." Shen Guantang bent slightly and observed Ye Fengshan carefully, "This is the only fatal injury on his body."
Although Ye Fengshan's dantian was abolished once before, after Shen Guantang and Pei Zhiyu came back from the modern world, he had already repaired his dantian with the magic heart stone. As for who provided the magic heart stone... except for the people behind Ye Fengshan he thinks.
"Perhaps... the people behind Ye Fengshan deliberately silenced it?" Shen Guantang guessed.
Now that Liu Ye and Cen Luo were imprisoned by the Shi family, Ye Fengshan had no scruples and might pass on news to the people behind him.
"If you think so, then what happened to us in the secret territory of the Demon Race can also be explained." Shen Guantang pondered.
"Knowing that you and I got in, so...they would rather destroy that demon secret realm directly than kill us."
"It's just a pity that they failed."
"But there's another thing that doesn't make sense."
Shen Guantang frowned, "How do they know we're back?"
If it is confirmed that he and Pei Zhiyu have died in the secret realm of the demon clan, there is no need to silence Ye Fengshan.
"Perhaps... those monks who were rescued leaked the news." Pei Zhiyu said.
After the two of them left, they rushed directly to Ye's Garden, and made a disguise when they went to Guanghua Mansion. Logically speaking, they shouldn't be known?
"contract."
"what?"
Pei Zhiyu looked at Shen Guantang, and said in a deep voice, "The contract between you and Liu Ye."
Shen Guantang hesitated for a while, "But, that contract is one-way..."
Next, Shen Guantang didn't speak again, he also understood what Pei Zhiyu meant.
They can confirm Shen Guantang's safety by monitoring the status of Liu Ye.
If Shen Guantang dies, then Liu Ye, who signed the one-way contract, will completely get rid of the contract's control.
When Shen Guantang and Pei Zhiyu were in modern times, the contract reaction between Liu Ye and Shen Guantang was very subtle, like a silk thread that was stretched to the limit, and it seemed that it would be completely broken with a little force.
At that time, almost everyone thought that Shen Guantang would not last long in the space-time rift.
However, Shen Guantang's vitality was beyond everyone's expectations.
The thread connecting the contract is very thin, but it has never been completely broken.
When Shen Guantang and Pei Zhiyu returned from the real world, the originally weak contract suddenly stabilized again.
"He is back."
-
"In that case, wouldn't Liu Ye and the others be very dangerous?"
"A Tang!" Pei Zhiyu grabbed Shen Guantang's wrist and said in a deep voice, "I'll go with you."
"Don't refuse." Before Shen Guantang could speak, Pei Zhiyu said quickly, "You know, I can't let you go alone."
Time was running out, Shen Guantang no longer hesitated, both of them increased their speed to the extreme, but in the blink of an eye, they came to the door of Shi's house.
Relying on the contractual relationship with Liu Ye, Shen Guantang and Pei Zhiyu went straight to the place where Liu Ye was being held without any pause.
In the dark night, suddenly, a large piece of light lit up.
A familiar female voice sounded slowly, "Fellow Daoist Shen, I have been waiting for you for a long time."
