Chapter 1174: That is Xu Que's Father

Walking out of the market, the crowd became even denser!

Most of the cultivators were concentrated here, constantly paying attention to the situation at the entrance of the ancient battlefield ruins. Everyone who walked out from inside would bring the latest progress.

However, when Bai Cailing appeared with several Golden Core stage guardians and more than a dozen Yaochi disciples, and just approached the crowd, it immediately attracted the attention of many people.

After all, Yaochi was a giant in the Tianxiang Immortal Realm, equivalent to the master of this Immortal Realm and the most powerful force. Now that other forces had sent people over, as the host of the Tianxiang Immortal Realm, there was no reason for Yaochi to sit still.

Now that they had finally appeared and arrived, the many cultivators present were not surprised, but the focus of their attention was Bai Cailing!

As the Saintess of Yaochi, most people usually only understood her from various rumors. Opportunities like today to see the real person at such close range were really rare!

And Bai Cailing did not disappoint everyone. Her ethereal temperament and exquisite appearance were very much in line with everyone's fantasy of the Yaochi Saintess. Even though she had once yielded the position of Saintess to Jiang Hongyan, now that she was back as Saintess, everyone felt she was worthy of the name. With such cultivation strength, appearance, and temperament in all aspects, she was indeed qualified to be the Saintess!

"I originally thought Yaochi would send a few deacons this time, but I didn't expect this Saintess to come in person. It is truly our good fortune to see her!"

"Indeed, hearing of her is not as good as seeing her. This Yaochi Saintess is so perfect, truly as beautiful as a painting!"

"Eh, wait a minute, something seems a bit wrong. Why is there an old man among them?"

Everyone had been praising Bai Cailing's appearance and temperament until someone suddenly exclaimed, and everyone discovered that there was really a sickly-looking old man in Bai Cailing's group.

The key was that this old man wasn't sneaking into the Yaochi disciples, but was being protected in the middle by more than a dozen Yaochi disciples and was treated with great respect by them, which was really a bit unfathomable!

"What's the situation?"

"What is the background of that old man? Only at the Half-Immortal stage, yet he makes so many Yaochi disciples treat him with such respect and love!"

"Eh, I remember now. A while ago, a young heavenly pride of the Shennong Clan, Yi Zhong, was beaten up by an old man in the Yaochi Holy Land. It seems it was this old man."

"Yes, yes, yes, I remember now too. I also saw the recording crystal at that time. It really is this old gentleman; it's Xu Que's father!"

"So it's Xu Que's father!"

"Haha, your information is all outdated. As far as I know, Xu Que's father is the father-in-law of the Yaochi Saintess. Saintess Bai is about to become the daughter-in-law of Xu Que's father!"

"Wait, what you said is a bit convoluted. Let me sort it out. Saintess Bai is about to become the daughter-in-law of Xu Que's father, so wouldn't Saintess Bai be marrying Xu Que?"

"That's exactly it. I heard that Xu Que's father took the marriage contract between Saintess Bai and Xu Que to Yaochi. Now that Yaochi treats him with such respect and love, it's clear they have recognized that marriage!"

"Damn, this..."

Everyone present was shocked. Discussing until the end, they hadn't expected to learn such a shocking piece of news.

No wonder a Half-Immortal stage old man could receive the respect of so many Yaochi disciples, and even from Bai Cailing's expression, it could be seen that she also respected that old man very much. So it turned out she was going to become that old man's daughter-in-law!

However, Bai Cailing and the many Yaochi disciples couldn't hear these discussions from the crowd. Long before everyone was discussing Xu Que's identity, the group had already stepped into the entrance of the ancient battlefield ruins.

At this moment, a dim room was filled with a faint smell of blood.

At this moment, a dim room was filled with a faint, bloody scent.

"This place is a place of great evil!" Xu Que couldn't help but say. Even without encountering any danger, he couldn't help but feel a tingling sensation on his scalp. This place made him very uncomfortable.

Bai Cailing's group heard this and nodded. It wasn't their first time here, and they had gradually become accustomed to this feeling.

"Elder Xu, are you sure you want to go in? The deeper you go, the more danger there will be. Even on the road further ahead, more dangers that even we don't know about will appear." Bai Cailing looked at Xu Que, feeling somewhat worried.

Back then, they and the major forces had entered, but they had never been able to find the correct path to go deeper, basically turning around on the periphery. In the end, they triggered many restrictions and suffered heavy losses, having to return empty-handed. Only Er Gouzi and Duan Jiude successfully broke into the interior, obtained the inheritance, and ran away.

Now that the Shennong Clan and the remaining forces forced Er Gouzi and Duan Jiude to appear and rescued Liu Jingning, their whereabouts were exposed. The Shennong Clan and the remaining forces only needed to follow behind them to go deeper into these ruins and find the place where they could obtain the inheritance.

"Rest assured, this old man knows what he's doing. If there is danger, remember to take care of yourselves. This old man doesn't have much else, but I do have ways to save my life!" Xu Que nodded and replied, but his weak voice sounded so unconvincing to the many Yaochi disciples!

However, if they really encountered danger, they would indeed prioritize their own safety. Although Xu Que made them respect him, it wasn't to the point where they would disregard their own lives to protect Xu Que.

Bai Cailing saw that Xu Que still insisted on walking in, so she didn't say anything more and continued forward.

On the way, many cultivators were rushing back and met Xu Que's group. At first, when they saw the many female disciples of Yaochi and Bai Cailing, they all showed surprised expressions, then enthusiastically bowed and greeted them.

But as they walked further inside, the expressions of the cultivators coming out gradually became solemn. In the end, several cultivators actually rushed out from inside together, their faces pale, blood spilling from the corners of their mouths, clearly having suffered heavy injuries.

"Are you... people from Yaochi?" One of them seemed to recognize Bai Cailing's group and exclaimed in surprise.

Afterwards, another person also spoke: "Fairies, Saintess Bai, you must not go in anymore. The inheritance has already been divided and snatched up by them. Now there is only slaughter inside."

"What? What happened inside?" Bai Cailing asked immediately upon hearing this.

They came to this place precisely to see what the Divine Spirit inheritance was like. If there was a chance to obtain it, that would be even better.

But now someone actually said the inheritance had been snatched up, which was a bad piece of news for the Yaochi group. Not obtaining the inheritance was actually nothing; after all, it was a matter of luck. But these ruins were in the Tianxiang Immortal Realm and belonged to Yaochi's territory.

Now that all the other major forces had obtained the inheritance, and only Yaochi was a step late and had no gains, if this spread out, wouldn't Yaochi lose all face and become a laughingstock?
