Free Web NovelChapter 583: Chapter 292: Heading to West Mountain Floating Domain
"That’s right."
Di Shenhan made another offer.
But this time Wen Jiu didn’t accept, because just now, a mysterious person rescued Bao Tiangai, who was already at the end of his rope, and even the Yin Yang Three Elements could not determine his location using the Fate Technique.
Di Shenhan didn’t mention if there was a battle, but in Wen Jiu’s view, there was clearly some contact, otherwise, Di Shenhan would not be willing to hand over all the gains from the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks sect domain to him.
Of course.
The greatest wealth of the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks is actually the entire Divine Fall Mountain Range; the foundation within the sect domain is just a drop in the ocean.
Yet Di Shenhan is willing to concede profits.
This shows a problem.
Wen Jiu immediately used the Corpse Fate Technique to divine, and as expected, it was Lin Zhuo, one of the Spirit Suppressing Generals, who rescued the person. As for why he didn’t directly act against Di Shenhan and his people, and suppress everyone, the reason is unknown, but what is certain is that after this incident, the Outer Path Hidden Demon Sect should also step in.
"We need to leave quickly."
Wen Jiu transmitted a message to reject Di Shenhan, continuing to control the Formless Demon Corpse and East Spring Undying Bone towards the Little Demon Realm.
Once the soul of East Spring Undying Bone is reshaped, Wen Jiu will control the East Spring Undying Bone to turn towards Wind and Cloud Immortal City. Since they are leaving, Ye Chen and his group should also be taken away, and sent to aid Fang Qian.
Otherwise, once the Divine Fall Mountain Range fully descends into chaos, even with the Fang Family’s protection, unexpected incidents may arise.
However, just as the Formless Demon Corpse reached Wind and Cloud Immortal City and quietly entered the city, preparing to meet Ye Chen and the others, Wen Jiu discovered an extra person in the courtyard where Ye Chen and his group were staying—it was Eastern Celestial City.
Inside Eastern Celestial City’s body was another soul, somewhat weak, most likely the fortunate survivor, Celestial Official Bai. Besides Ye Chen and Eastern Celestial City, others were also present, including Chen Daoqing.
But apart from Ye Chen and Eastern Celestial City, the rest remained silent on the side, quietly listening to the conversation between the two.
The focus was on Eastern Celestial City’s words.
Because Eastern Celestial City planned to head to the Celestial Demon Sea to rebuild Deadman Peak, whether it was Ye Chen or his disciple Chen Li, all had an emotional attachment to Deadman Peak and were reluctant to part with it.
Eastern Celestial City’s plan to rebuild Deadman Peak naturally brought joy, but the current situation was indeed too chaotic.
Therefore, Eastern Celestial City did not force anyone, only gave them time to think, allowing them to decide whether to go or not. Chen Daoqing and Wang Nian’s couple chose to stay without hesitation because they did not have such a deep affection for Deadman Peak. They had finally found some peace, and were truly willing to abandon it.
Moreover, their skills were humble; what could they contribute by following?
"Senior Brother, I will go with you." Even though he didn’t know where Eastern Celestial City’s confidence came from, after much hesitation, Ye Chen decided to go along. His master and senior brother were both going; as the junior brother, he had no reason to continue hiding at the Fang Family.
Eastern Celestial City nodded, once again looking towards Li Mu, Yanyue, and Shan Yue Ru, "Think it over well. If you don’t wish to go, I won’t force you. Staying with the Fang Family may be a much better option for you."
He knew that leaving Li Mu and the others with the Fang Family was Wen Jiu’s intention, and staying with the Fang Family would certainly guarantee protection from Wen Jiu. With Wen Jiu’s talent, as long as he didn’t perish prematurely, he would achieve the Heterodox Golden Core in the future. Receiving Wen Jiu’s protection would undoubtedly be much safer than going to the Celestial Demon Sea to establish a sect.
As to why he still asked Li Mu and the others.
It was because the Divine Fall Mountain Range was becoming more chaotic, and Wen Jiu Xu could no longer take care of himself. If Li Mu and the others remained with the Fang Family, they could only bring trouble to Wen Jiu. Wen Jiu was righteous and would surely repay kindness, but he couldn’t rely on Wen Jiu’s righteousness and do nothing himself. Being with Li Mu and the others was the start of him taking responsibility again.
Li Mu, somewhat worried, asked, "Uncle Master, Deadman Peak is my home, and you all are my family. If it weren’t absolutely necessary, I, Li Mu, would never leave you. But won’t we face danger recklessly going to the Celestial Demon Sea to establish a sect, where the situation is likely to be more severe than the Divine Fall Mountain Range?"
"I can’t elaborate on the specifics, as it involves a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator in the Three Life Gates, but what I can tell you is that with his presence, we can establish a sect in the Celestial Demon Sea in peace, as long as we don’t over-expand, we won’t have any trouble." Eastern Celestial City did not explain too much, but added, "No matter what you choose, I won’t blame you. But if you follow me, you will be the founders of Deadman Peak, and resources will definitely be tilted towards you to help you reach the next level."
"What about the Fang Family and Elder Han?" Li Mu asked again.
Eastern Celestial City responded, "I will explain to them."
He fell silent.
Eastern Celestial City swept a glance over the few people in the room.
Yanyue nodded silently, and Shan Yue Ru, beside her, did the same. To Shan Yue Ru and Yanyue, Ye Chen and Eastern Celestial City were their last family members, and compared to safely cultivating at the Fang Family, they would rather accompany their family to rise again.
"Master, what about Junior Brother?" Yanyue asked.
Eastern Celestial City interjected, "Wen Jiu’s talent is better suited to following Elder Han. Deadman Peak is not suitable for him."
"Alright."
Yanyue forced a smile and slowly nodded.
With a sideways glance, he saw Shan Yue Ru’s eyes darken, silently standing aside for a long time without speaking.
Wen Jiu observed all this through the Formless Demon Corpse and immediately controlled the Formless Demon Corpse to sneak into the room, transforming into Han Li’s appearance, "If you are willing, I can offer you a better place."
When "Han Li" appeared, everyone was shocked.
"Elder Han!"
"Elder Han!"
As the exclamations sounded, everyone hurriedly bowed to show their respects.
