Chapter 210: Wang Qinghe's Encounter!

"The Northern Front has been breached, and I suspect it has an inseparable connection to the Great Wilderness!"

Liuyu looked at the World Honored whose face remained unchanged before him, and at the Master's Wife Jiu Jiu who was frowning and pondering something, yet he voiced his suspicions without the slightest hesitation.

And following Liuyu's words, the small courtyard fell into a silence once again.

Gu Jiangming felt even more helpless in his heart at this moment; the Great Wilderness, which had been drawn into this by his changing of the past—even if he did not yet know their objective, Gu Jiangming could imagine that their designs were likely immense.

But what Gu Jiangming could not quite fathom was that since the Great Wilderness had Immortals residing in the world, and Heaven and Earth had gestated an Immortal Dao Principle, they could simply take it if they wanted to; why go to such great lengths? It was just a pity that the information Gu Jiangming possessed at this moment was truly too scarce, and he was unable to discern what the Great Wilderness was actually plotting.

And as Gu Jiangming frowned in confusion, the entire courtyard fell into a state of silence once again.

As for Liuyu, after informing Gu Jiangming of the intelligence known to the Shushan Sect, and with Gu Jiangming not concealing the fact that he had investigated the sea regions, he only stayed in Leping County for a few days before departing.

And before Liuyu left, he carried Gu Jiangming's instructions, telling the Shushan Disciples that they should descend the mountain when they ought to.

After all, the Shushan Sect was also a part of the Human Race; if the Human Race suffered a calamity, how could the Shushan Sect stand by and watch?

Besides this, Jiu Jiu gave Liuyu a few more instructions, telling Liuyu to keep it as secret as possible—to keep secret the intelligence that Gu Jiangming had returned to the world.

After Liuyu left, Gu Jiangming and Jiu Jiu discussed it several times, but the result of the discussions was fruitless.

Helpless, Gu Jiangming and the others ultimately decided to proceed according to the previous rhythm; after all, no matter what shape the era evolved into, mastering strength was certainly never wrong.

It was just that Gu Jiangming could not temporarily take Jiu Jiu and Long Xi into the Qilin Grotto-Heaven, so after several subsequent discussions, Jiu Jiu and Long Xi decided to divide the work.

Long Xi began to summon the living beings within the Dragon Palace sea regions in the name of the True Dragon, attempting to gather the power of the sea creatures to block the Great Wilderness's erosion of Heaven and Earth.

As for Jiu Jiu...

Jiu Jiu prepared to go and take a look at the territories further away for the Human Race, and even prepared to go and take a look at the Northern Front.

For a time, only Gu Jiangming remained at home in the entire Leping County; at least in the eyes of those in Leping County who were familiar with Gu Jiangming, there was no difference between Gu Jiangming and the past.

But only Gu Jiangming himself knew that his cultivation was increasing rapidly every single day.

The abundant resources within the Qilin Grotto-Heaven were sufficient to support Gu Jiangming in rapidly elevating his strength in a short period of time.

As for Wang Qinghe...

It was not that Gu Jiangming had not thought about looking for Wang Qinghe, but Jiu Jiu had also said before she left that the Human Race's territory was undergoing great changes, and it was unclear where in the Human Race's territory Wang Qinghe was; she would help Gu Jiangming try her best to find traces of Wang Qinghe.

Even though Jiu Jiu did not like Gu Jiangming's other women, in the Heavenly Human Era, Wang Qinghe was, after all, a part of the family; what Jiu Jiu disliked was Wang Qinghe competing with her for a man, but it was not to the point of watching Wang Qinghe drift alone outside.

It was just that neither Gu Jiangming nor Jiu Jiu knew that at this moment, Wang Qinghe was looking at her father with a sorrowful expression.

"Do you really want me to join this so-called Tianquan Sect?"

"Father, I feel that cultivating by myself at home is already enough..." In Beiping Prefecture, Wang Qinghe looked at her father with a helpless expression; ever since last month, Wang Qinghe had noticed that not only was her father becoming increasingly busy, but he was even arranging many matters in the household.

That state and appearance were as if Wang Qinghe's father was arranging his own funeral affairs? "You must join the Tianquan Sect!"

"Also, have some respect for the Tianquan Sect; within the Human Race's territory, Longhu Mountain and the Shushan Sect are undoubtedly the strongest sects."

"But within my Great Jing territory, the Tianquan Sect is also the top-tier sect!"

"My Great Jing has several deities, two of whom originated from the Tianquan Sect; now that we are facing troubled times, even the major cities are no longer safe, yet the Tianquan Sect has two deities sitting in command."

"As long as you join the Tianquan Sect, at least I won't have to worry about your safety!"

Wang Qinghe's father, who had always doted on his daughter, had an unquestionable expression on his face this time; he also held a position in the imperial court of Great Jing and knew more about the current plight of the Human Race than those outside.

The Northern Front had collapsed, and it was said that ten billion of the Demon Race had entered the North; yet after Wang Qinghe's father did a little calculation, he became increasingly terrified.

Just within the Great Jing territory alone, the number of the Demon Race that had entered had already reached an inconceivable level.

Even in the calculations of Wang Qinghe's father, it was likely that those people in the North had greatly underestimated the number of the Demon Race that had entered.

Under these circumstances, Wang Qinghe's father's judgment of the situation was already extremely pessimistic.

It was just that Wang Qinghe's father was merely at the Nascent Soul Stage, and even within the entire Great Jing, he could not be considered outstanding, let alone protecting his own family in such troubled times.

And after much thought, Wang Qinghe's father chose to send Wang Qinghe into the Tianquan Sect.

At least in the eyes of Wang Qinghe's father, this was the most favorable path for Wang Qinghe.

But how could Wang Qinghe's father know, how could he know that his daughter had once taken a shortcut to step into the Supreme Realm? Even if she had stepped into the Supreme Realm with the help of others' Dao Principles, Wang Qinghe still had over a thousand years of accumulated Supreme experience.

For Wang Qinghe, what she lacked was not anything else, but likewise, it was time.

Given sufficient time, wanting to re-prove the Supreme Realm in this current End of Dharma era was naturally harder than ascending to heaven, but if it were merely stepping into the Heaven and Earth Enlightenment Realm, Wang Qinghe still had great confidence.

Under these circumstances, Wang Qinghe did not feel that she needed to join any sect.

But looking at her father's stubborn eyes, Wang Qinghe also knew that she was afraid she could not persuade, nor could she persuade, her father...

In order to put her father at ease, after thinking it over several times, Wang Qinghe could only helplessly accept her father's good intentions.

In the four directions of Heaven and Earth, the Northern Border was in constant turmoil, and countless territories in the Northern Border outside the North had turned into desolate dead lands; as for beyond the Western Lands, how much better could it be? It was just that compared to the special nature of the Northern Border and the North, the Western Border at least had not yet been stepped into by the powerhouses of the Great Wilderness.

This also meant that the Western Border outside the Western Lands was only being eroded by the Great Wilderness because it was constrained, thus forcing the powerhouses of the Western Border to tear out a piece of land from the Human Race's territory.

Even if they could not tear out a piece of land, those powerhouses in the Western Border were determined to consume some of the living beings of the Western Border.
