Chapter 597: Meeting Jiang Yan Again

"Miss Jiang?"

Li Rui was a bit surprised.

The Prime Minister of the Guniu Immortal Dynasty, Du Ming, who walked up, reacted quickly and laughed: "So you two know each other."

Seeing Li Rui, Jiang Yan was also stunned, then revealed a joyful expression: "Senior Li?!"

Ever since Jiang Yan came to the cultivation world, the two had basically lost contact.

Now that they had reunited after a long time, they naturally had many things to say.

After some conversation.

Li Rui finally learned.

It turned out that ever since Jiang Yan came to the cultivation world, she had been cultivating in the Biyu Tower of Bai Yujing.

This Biyu Tower was one of the Twelve Towers of Bai Yujing; although the number of people wasn't as many as Shenxiao City, the top combat power wasn't weak at all, and it was extremely special, all women.

Traveling here, she heard about the demonic chaos and came specifically to slay demons.

Jiang Yan pointed to a cold and icy woman beside her: "Senior Li, this is my master."

Just after speaking.

That woman opened her vermilion lips and said in a flat tone: "Qingluan greets Fellow Daoist Changqing."

Li Rui's eyes lit up.

He didn't expect that this Qingluan Huofeng Xianzi was actually the master Jiang Linxian chose for his own daughter, and he even bestowed creation specifically.

"Greetings, Huofeng Xianzi Qingluan."

He had heard of this Huofeng Xianzi Qingluan long ago.

She was the most famous female elder of Biyu Tower.

The reason why she was so famous was for two points.

One, she was a rare female sword cultivator.

Two, she didn't want her life when fighting.

Well, that could also count as one point.

Which sword cultivator doesn't want their life when fighting?

That's why there is a conventional rule in the cultivation world: detour when encountering a sword cultivator.

Besides that.

Li Rui knew that Huofeng Xianzi Qingluan was also because of some rumors; it was heard that this Huofeng Xianzi Qingluan's Great Dao was extremely special, and now she was at the peak of the Dao Body Realm, coupled with her identity as a sword cultivator, her combat power could be said to be extremely strong.

And Bai Yujing had once invited this Huofeng Xianzi Qingluan to join, but she refused.

An opportunity that others begged for, Huofeng Xianzi Qingluan actually refused directly.

It spread throughout the Twelve Towers and Five Cities of Bai Yujing.

Li Rui cupped his hands slightly: "Over these years, thank you, Huofeng Xianzi, for taking care of... my nephew's daughter."

Jiang Yan didn't know yet that Jiang Linxian was a reincarnation, so Li Rui had to choose not to poke it.

It is said that it is difficult for an honest official to judge family affairs; such things can only be told by Jiang Linxian himself. If he, an outsider, said it, it would be difficult to avoid the suspicion of overstepping.

Li Rui naturally wouldn't do such a rule-breaking thing.

No matter how good the friendship is, one must understand propriety, otherwise, even if they are biological brothers, they will still fall out.

"Yan'er is intelligent; I accepted her as a disciple because I valued her original heart, unrelated to other things, what is there to thank?"

Li Rui was speechless; this Huofeng Xianzi Qingluan was truly the protective type as rumored.

This was very good.

At least Jiang Yan wouldn't suffer.

Du Ming clapped his hands and laughed at the right time: "Everyone coming to help, my Guniu Immortal Dynasty is deeply grateful; the Holy Emperor has set up a banquet to welcome everyone, please."

Soon.

The group arrived at a garden behind the imperial palace.

Strange flowers and immortal plants could be seen everywhere.

It could truly be called: the spring colors of a country, half of which are in this garden.

Making Tan Yu and Ning Zhongtian dumbfounded.

Truly luxurious.

Not worthy of the Emperor's life.

The Holy Emperor of the Guniu Dynasty was a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties, mighty and solemn, looking like an Emperor at a glance.

The Holy Emperor of the Guniu Immortal Dynasty laughed loudly: "Everyone, please sit, taste the fine wine and food of my Guniu Immortal Dynasty."

One could see pretty and lovely palace maids walking out, among them even male servants.

Obviously. The male servants were prepared for Huofeng Xianzi Qingluan and Jiang Yan.

It's just that under Huofeng Xianzi Qingluan's icy gaze, those male servants were too timid to step forward.

"Thoughtful indeed."

Li Rui smiled and shook his head in his heart.

The palace maids danced gracefully, and the Holy Emperor was extremely talkative, from the customs of the Guniu Dynasty to the interesting things of the entire Taihua Continent, truly eloquent.

Li Rui and True Lord Master Changgeng were also extremely cooperative, and for a time, the guests and host were happy.

Finally.

Huofeng Xianzi Qingluan lost her patience and said coldly: "I wonder if the Guniu Holy Emperor knows about the demonic chaos."

As soon as these words came out.

There was silence for several breaths, and then the Guniu Holy Emperor let out a light sigh: "Everyone, this is a long story..."

Afterward, he recounted the things that had happened in the Guniu Immortal Dynasty recently.

The process was not much different from the information Li Rui had obtained.

Roughly, it was that the Guniu Immortal Dynasty's ancestor went out and fell, and without the only Heavenly Human ancestor to sit in town, the Guniu Immortal Dynasty lost its biggest reliance, and then was taken advantage of by the demonic cultivators of the Wanfa Hall, stirring up demonic chaos.

After listening.

Huofeng Xianzi Qingluan stood up first: "Then just sweep away the demons; I'll go one step ahead, farewell."

After speaking, she took Jiang Yan and left.

Swift and decisive.

Seeing this scene, the wine naturally couldn't be eaten, Li Rui smiled and smoothed things over: "Holy Emperor, don't blame her; Huofeng Xianzi Qingluan just has this temper. We also know the matter; tomorrow we will find the demonic cultivator leader and behead him, which should settle the demonic chaos. This wine will be saved, and we will drink happily with the Holy Emperor after the demons are destroyed."

"Very good!"

Li Rui's words were beautiful, and the Holy Emperor originally wanted to find a step down, so naturally, they hit it off.

The next morning.

Li Rui and True Lord Master Changgeng agreed to split into two paths to search for the demonic cultivators' lair, and then join forces to wipe them out in one go.

"Elder Li, those demonic cultivators have a full five Dao Body Realm experts; the ancestor fell, and my Guniu Immortal Dynasty truly couldn't defeat them, so we had to seek help from the Immortal Masters."

"Now they are entrenched in the Black Longshan area."

The person speaking was the Great General of the Guniu Immortal Dynasty.

He was also one of the three Dao Body Realm experts of the Guniu Immortal Dynasty.

Speaking of which, the Guniu Immortal Dynasty was actually quite good before the ancestor fell, with combat power not much different from the Yu Kingdom, but now it is going downhill, and if there isn't a Heavenly Human Realm expert in a hundred years, I'm afraid the position of a third-rate immortal dynasty won't be kept.

Not long after.

The Great General Chu Hu led a group of people to the outer perimeter of Black Longshan.

Unlike the Ten Thousand Mountains of the Yu Kingdom, Black Longshan is not big; it is an isolated peak, a dangerous peak.

As for why those demonic cultivators entrenched on the mountain couldn't be eradicated, the reason is very simple, because they couldn't defeat them.

This time, splitting into three paths is precisely to join forces to encircle and suppress these demonic cultivators.

To be precise, splitting into two paths.

Huofeng Xianzi Qingluan cannot be controlled.

Both sides have five Dao Body Realm experts, and with the pressure of the Guniu Immortal Dynasty's luck, it is not difficult to break them.

But just as Li Rui and Chu Hu were about to lead people into the mountain.

Suddenly!

A loud phoenix cry rang out from the peak of Black Longshan, and a huge ball of fire exploded.

Seeing this scene.

Chu Hu was shocked, saying in a lost voice: "It's Huofeng Xianzi Qingluan!"

Obviously.

Huofeng Xianzi Qingluan had already taken action in advance.

Chu Hu couldn't help but curse in a low voice: "Truly a crazy woman, sword cultivators' brains are all sick."

But just after speaking.

Another fire light rushed into the sky from the peak, almost illuminating half the sky.

Seeing that strange fire appear.

Li Rui's expression changed for the first time, blurting out: "Nanming Li Fire?!"
