Chapter 529

As for what the other matter was, Su Xuan did not say.

Seeing that Su Xuan was unwilling to mention it, Yanfei could only bury her questions deep in her heart, and she did not attempt to ask.

Because their objective was extremely clear.

Su Xuan and Yanfei headed straight for Yunmengze, and soon, they stepped into the territory of Yunmengze.

Yunmengze is called a great marsh, but it is actually a mixture of oases, swamps, and lakes. Within it, there are many lakes and many oasis lands. The only difference is that these areas all appear extremely primitive. Although many bandits and refugees hide within, compared to the vastness of Yunmengze, the existence of these people is somewhat insignificant.

After stepping into Yunmengze, the pace of Su Xuan and Yanfei's travel slowed down significantly.

If it were only Su Xuan alone, he could walk across the water when encountering it, and fly through the air when encountering swamps.

The unique environment within Yunmengze could not cause him any influence.

But after bringing Yanfei along, it could not be like that. Although Yanfei's strength was strong, and after Su Xuan's preaching, she was even half a step away from stepping into the Heaven-Man Realm, she was still quite a bit behind Su Xuan.

Essentially, she still belonged to the human category and had not reached a non-human level.

The two trekked through Yunmengze for several days.

On this day, in a lake, Su Xuan and Yanfei were riding a small boat, passing through it slowly.

Yanfei stood at the bow of the boat, looking at the pavilions in the distance, her eyes flickering, "Is that Zhanghua Terrace?"

Chu has Zhanghua Terrace, far away in Yunmengze!

Regarding Zhanghua Terrace, this number one high terrace in the world, she had only heard of it. However, within this Yunmengze, it seemed that only Zhanghua Terrace could explain that magnificent and grand high terrace in the distance.

"It seems so!"

Su Xuan nodded. Even though they were far apart, with his sensitive perception, he could still hear the lingering Chu songs emanating from Zhanghua Terrace. One could only say that the contemporary high officials of the State of Chu were unusually muddled.

The crisis of national extinction was right before their eyes, yet the high officials of Chu still had the heart to enjoy themselves in this Zhanghua Terrace, with singing and dancing never stopping inside.

However, if one looked at it from another angle, it seemed understandable.

The State of Chu was on the verge of perishing; if they didn't enjoy themselves now, they wouldn't have the chance later.

They had to seize the time and hurry to enjoy themselves.

"Why, are you prepared to go to Zhanghua Terrace to take a look~~?" Su Xuan thought Yanfei had developed an interest in Zhanghua Terrace and asked her.

Yanfei had traveled thousands of miles to accompany him to the State of Chu; if she really wanted to see Zhanghua Terrace, Su Xuan would not mind fulfilling her wish.

Yanfei shook her head and said, "I am just feeling a bit emotional. Donghuang Taiyi really knows how to find a place. Since he chose to live in seclusion in Yunmengze, wouldn't it be better to find a place with few people? He just had to choose to be near this Zhanghua Terrace. In the end, he still has greed for the mortal world!"

After Su Xuan took control of the Yin-Yang School, those who changed their minds and began to despise Donghuang Taiyi were not just the five great elders, but also Yanfei before him.

Su Xuan smiled faintly and said nothing.

They actually did not know that Donghuang Taiyi's choice to live in seclusion here was also involuntary. The first to live in seclusion here was Chu Chu Nangong.

Since Chu Chu Nangong lived in seclusion nearby, he could only stay nearby as well.

After sighing, Yanfei asked Su Xuan again, "Is Master Xuantian certain that Donghuang Taiyi is nearby?"

Su Xuan explained, "After reaching the Grandmaster level, one possesses the ability of 'locking onto a soul from a thousand miles away.' The so-called 'thousand-mile soul locking,' while an exaggeration, strictly speaking, is a Grandmaster's extreme sensitivity to energy. By grasping another's energy, one can find their tracks. But if one's strength is even stronger, achieving thousand-mile soul locking is not a difficult task!"

"Donghuang Taiyi used soul-seizing techniques to control others and send a jade pendant to me. Inside the jade pendant was the letter he left behind. Although the power within dissipated gradually after the jade broke, before it dissipated, I still grasped a portion of it. After arriving in the State of Chu, I relied on this power to finally find Donghuang Taiyi's whereabouts!"

It sounded easy, but Yanfei felt the "vast supernatural powers" from Su Xuan's words. To be able to grasp Donghuang Taiyi's whereabouts from just a trace of energy—one must know, from the State of Qin to the State of Chu, it was more than a thousand miles away.

Even if Donghuang Taiyi said he was hiding in Yunmengze, Su Xuan could only use this trace of energy to search for Donghuang Taiyi's whereabouts after arriving in Yunmengze, but even Yunmengze was extremely vast.

Of course, Donghuang Taiyi was also not simple.

He actually used soul-seizing methods to control others, sending letters to the Yin-Yang School in such a way, and even hiding the content of the letter inside the jade pendant.

This was the first time Yanfei knew how Donghuang Taiyi had sent the letter to Su Xuan.

After crossing the lake, Su Xuan and the other arrived in a wilderness. In the wilderness, there were many wild beasts, and things like snakes and insects were often seen. Because it was land, the two accelerated their speed a little.

It was mainly because Yanfei knew she was slowing down Su Xuan's progress.

She knew Su Xuan's strength very well; if it weren't for bringing her along, Su Xuan would probably have already seen Donghuang Taiyi.

They traveled a distance on flat ground.

Suddenly, a powerful force swept over.

Yanfei immediately stepped forward, her sleeves brushing, and golden light flashed out, meeting the powerful force.

The two forces collided, and the surrounding vegetation broke one after another.

Yanfei looked ahead with a solemn expression.
