Chapter 182

Earth Realm, Cangzhou Prefecture.

"Your Highness."

The old man sighs, looking at the young girl in front of him, "The Divine Gift Grand Examination is approaching; we should go back."

The young girl's expression is calm as she looks up at the tall city wall and says, "This mountain city has not been visited yet."

Hearing this.

The old man's face looks even worse, "Your Highness, over the past half year, you have led me in and out seven times, and the nearby Earth Realm prefecture territories have almost been turned over by you."

The second half of the sentence, he didn't dare to say out loud.

With Spring Realm cultivation, encountering any guarding Yin Master is certain death.

The guarding Yin Master is, after all, a Divine Palace Realm living being!

Among them are some living beings who are powerful and terrifying, not even inferior to himself.

In his view, the person the Highness is looking for died here long ago, becoming one of the countless dead.

"Go find him."

The young girl walks into the city.

On the city gate, four ancient seal characters are carved.

Jiuhua Shancheng.

The old man is full of helplessness and follows.

Just after entering the city, he notices something wrong.

The other cities in Cangzhou Prefecture are full of the dead.

In the depths of the cities, there are guarding Yin Masters.

But this Jiuhua Shancheng is deathly silent, the streets are empty, and there is not a single dead shadow!

"Your Highness, be careful."

The old man speaks in a deep voice, "It's a bit strange here."

"I can tell," the young girl says softly, "How much Dead Man Jade is left?"

The old man looks into his bosom and replies, "Your Highness, the Dead Man Jade we brought this time can last for 5 hours."

The young girl nods and walks forward along the street.

The walls of the streets around are thin, like paper.

Many houses are tilted, covered with deep sword marks.

Clearly, they were left by countless sword lights sweeping past.

"These sword marks."

The young girl stops, her fair fingers touching the sword marks, her gaze moving.

A few seconds later.

She turns around, her tone extremely certain: "This is his sword."

During the Two Prefectures Discussion, Jiang Jian descended with his sword from the cliff, and countless living beings saw it.

The sword aura marks of Han Guang were already known to everyone.

The old man is startled: "Your Highness."

The young girl waves her hand gently, following the marks all the way, her gaze becoming brighter and brighter.

Until she reaches a deep abyss giant pit.

She stops, her mind completely relaxed, and affirms: "He is not dead."

"How is this possible!"

The old man is stunned, "Every city has a guarding Yin Master!"

"When he went missing, he was only at the Spring Realm cultivation; how could he resist the Yin Master here?"

The young girl asks: "So? Where is the Yin Master here?"

The old man is stunned, looks around, senses carefully, but doesn't detect half a Yin Master aura.

The young girl says softly: "The truth is, he killed the Yin Master here alone and escaped the Earth Realm."

She turns around, smoothing her Guangling No. 1 Middle School skirt, her steps light, "Let's go back; the Divine Gift Grand Examination is about to start."

The old man is confused: "Not looking anymore?"

The young girl doesn't look back, her voice clear and pleasant, coming from afar: "Are you an idiot? It's been almost half a year; can you find him here?"

The old man shrugs, not speaking.

This was something he asked on purpose.

If he didn't ask anything, he would be seen as eager to leave, and he would be scolded just the same when he got out.

This is the valuable experience he has summarized over the past few months.

Ever since the Moon Realm turmoil half a year ago, when the surface world and the Earth Realm intersected.

Earth Realm entrances have appeared more frequently in the seventy surface prefectures.

It's just that.

The Earth Realm Research Institute of the Prayer Star Palace has gained experience and is well-prepared.

Every time an Earth Realm entrance appears, many living beings apply for Dead Man Jade, wanting to enter.

But the quota for exploring the Earth Realm is very precious.

Ordinary living beings cannot get the qualification at all.

Only the young girl can get the quota every time an Earth Realm entrance is discovered.

No matter how remote the prefecture where the Earth Realm entrance appears, she will take the old man there and enter to search.

Coming and going seven times, it has all been in vain.

This time coming to Jiuhua Shancheng in Cangzhou Prefecture, there is finally a clue.

A dozen minutes later.

The young girl has already taken the old man through the portal, left the Earth Realm, and returned to the luxury shuttle.

"Immediately fly back to Guangling City, Linjiang Prefecture; the Divine Gift Grand Examination is about to start."

She sits in her seat and orders.

The luxury shuttle starts immediately, piercing through clouds and mist, flying rapidly toward Linjiang Prefecture.

The young girl ponders for a moment, takes the identification device, and dials a real-time communication.

Beep.

Beep.

The communication is connected.

On the other side of the identification device, Jiang Zhao's voice is cold and pleasant, but it sounds tired and hoarse: "Classmate Nie Zheng, sister, is something the matter?"

Classmate Nie Zheng brews for a moment and says: "There is a clue."

Hearing this.

The other side of the communication falls silent immediately.

Classmate Nie Zheng continues: "He is still alive."

Other words, she didn't say much to Jiang Zhao.

And she has never told anyone that every time an Earth Realm entrance is discovered, she enters it herself to search.

Initially, adding Jiang Zhao as a friend on the identification device was due to forwarding notes.

After Jiang Jian disappeared, Classmate Nie Zheng took the initiative to contact Jiang Zhao, asking for a lot of information about Jiang Jian, saying she wanted to help find him.

Jiang Zhao never expected.

After a few months, there would actually be news.

"Who is this?"

Yinyin asks in disbelief, "What else did she tell you?"

Hanging up the communication, Jiang Zhao shakes her head gently and says: "She is a junior schoolmate; she had a good relationship with Jiang Jian and often forwarded notes."

"She only said that Jiang Jian is still alive."

"As for the source of the news and the accuracy of the news, she didn't say."

Hearing this.

Yinyin says: "You don't really believe it, do you?"

Jiang Zhao's expression is tired, and she shakes her head again, not answering.

She leans against the head of the bed, closes her eyes gently, and falls asleep straight away.

During this period.

Jiang Zhao seems to have lost her goal, and her heart feels empty.

Day and night, she is cultivating frantically, constantly taking on learning tasks.

She is unwilling to believe that Jiang Jian is dead.

Because in her intuition, Jiang Jian is still there.

But she has no way to prove this point.

After all, the Linjiang Prefecture government investigated.

Jiang Jian's identification device has completely disappeared, which proves that he did indeed die in the Dead Realm.

But Jiang Zhao is always unwilling to accept this fact.

She wants to go to the Dead Realm to find Jiang Jian.

But she tries every method, applies to the academy many times, and cannot get a quota at all.

It can even be said.

Every time an Earth Realm entrance appears, the quota is personally controlled by the Prayer Star Palace.

The entire Linjiang Prefecture territory does not have the qualification to get a quota.

Under these circumstances.

Jiang Zhao deeply feels her own weakness and powerlessness, and can only numb herself with cultivation.

Except for cultivation, she has no heart to do anything else.
