My bed here feels even cozier than the giant one in my Demon Court Imperial Palace.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just at that moment, chatter from outside interrupted their conversation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t push me; I haven’t seen yet!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Slow down, slow down, don’t let Sister Feng Jiu notice us.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A group of kids’ bickering voices came through, and Feng Jiu rushed to open the door, only to see several children stacked up like Arhats right in front of her door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are you little rascals doing in front of my door?\" Feng Jiu asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t get the wrong idea, Sister Feng Jiu, we just wanted to wake you up,\" answered Little Snotty, his face beaming with a flattering smile while he sneakily peered at Feng Jiu’s neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are you sneaking peeks at?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nothing, nothing at all,\" he mumbled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then muttered under his breath in a barely audible voice, \"No marks, huh, all those books are deceivers.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Marks? What marks?\" Feng Jiu mumbled to herself, and suddenly, as if realizing something, a flush of red appeared on her face, and she scolded with hands on her hips, \"What on earth have you kids been reading?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Little Snotty took to his heels and ran, all the while shouting, \"It wasn’t my idea; they dragged me into this!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rest scattered in every direction, narrowly escaping Feng Jiu’s wrath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Fang watched the scene with a smile on his face, feeling the warmth of it. This village was like a sanctuary in a world full of deceit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Given the choice, spending his final days here wouldn’t be so bad.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, he was no longer in control of his destiny, having unavoidably become entangled in the issues of the Three Realms. Seeking tranquility had become harder than ever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He glanced at Feng Jiu, who was staring blankly beside him, guessing that the former Demon Emperor might share the same sentiment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a while, a deep sigh from Feng Jiu filled the air. Her face was full of longing as she said, \"We’re leaving this afternoon!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Leaving this afternoon? That soon? Don’t you want to stay a few more days?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Truth be told, Lin Fang had been very comfortable these past few days and felt a bit of reluctance to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, we’re not staying. I’m afraid if we linger a few more days, I’ll never want to leave,\" Feng Jiu said through clenched teeth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That afternoon, Feng Jiu quietly led Lin Fang out of the village. Just as they reached the entrance, they saw the villagers already waiting there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Grandfather, what are you doing here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Our girl is going on a long journey; of course, we have to see her off,\" said the village chief with a smile on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Granny Hua, holding Feng Jiu’s hand, added, \"I know you still have unfinished business, girl. We old folks can’t stop you, but remember to bring back a chubby little one when you come next time. It’s been a long while since we’ve had children in our village.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The villagers expressed their sorrow at the parting, all talking at once, making Feng Jiu’s eyes well up with tears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the village slowly vanished from their sight, Feng Jiu finally pulled herself together, her gaze regaining determination.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Fang looked back one last time, only to see a vast expanse of whiteness where the village had stood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The village chief and the others?\" Lin Fang hesitated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you wondering why they wouldn’t leave the village?\" Feng Jiu asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Fang nodded. He had noticed earlier that the village chief and others had only seen them off up to the village entrance and had not stepped outside the village at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Have you begun to guess at their origins?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I had a vague guess as to where Xiao Bi Ti might be, but I dared not be certain.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feng Jiu sighed and said, \"They are gods and demons who survived from ancient times, and as for Xiao Bi Ti, they were all transformations of slain Demonic Gods.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This village serves not only as the last sanctuary but also as an invisible prison. Nevertheless, the villagers find their own happiness and live freely.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Fang suddenly realized, in fact, when he saw Xiao Bi Ti’s tears invoking the change in the laws, he had a vague suspicion. It is said that only those gods and demons born innately, as incarnations of the Heaven and Earth laws, possess such power, the power to cause the laws to change with every action they take.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, after ancient times, gods and demons vanished without a trace. Many say that the Three Pure Ones, wishing to maintain the stability of the Three Realms, slew the gods and demons, and that is why none can be found in the world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two of them walked silently to the gorge, where sharp Sword Qi met them head-on, and Lin Fang took refuge behind Feng Jiu instinctively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Feng Jiu let out a gentle chuckle and, like a man, protected Lin Fang behind her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they walked slowly out of the gorge, they saw White Ape still sitting in meditation amidst the snow, maintaining the same posture until now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, the aura emanating from him had become very sharp, with an added hint of destruction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed that in this short period, he had made significant gains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>White Ape only opened his eyes when he noticed Lin Fang and Feng Jiu approaching. His gaze was as calm as a still pond, rippleless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’ve come!\" White Ape said with a smiling face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It looks like you’ve made quite a breakthrough this time!\" Lin Fang exclaimed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"To catch a glimpse of the Supreme Sword Way, even death would satisfy me. Oh right, bring Bai Su out to take a look. Her sword is inherently of the path of slaughter, perhaps she can gain deeper insights here!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Aren’t you afraid that your disciple might come to harm since this is the handiwork of the Divine Venerable?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I trust her abilities, and with all of you here, naturally I cannot let her miss this excellent opportunity,\" White Ape said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Fang smiled and nodded at these words, and with a thought, Bai Su appeared before everyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master!\" As soon as Bai Su appeared, she joyfully called out to White Ape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instantly, an intense cold enveloped her, causing her to shiver uncontrollably. Lin Fang gently pointed a finger, and a ball of flame spontaneously appeared, floating quietly in front of Bai Su, dispelling the severe cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only then did Bai Su notice her surroundings, covered in endless whiteness. Aside from the blue sky, Heaven and Earth were blanketed with pure white snow, and not a single living animal was to be seen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being born in Luzhou in the North, she immediately thought of the legendary Far Northern Land, never expecting Lin Fang to come to such a place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t think about anything else, just look at the gorge behind you!\" White Ape’s words pulled her out of her trance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She turned her head instinctively and saw the gorge that resembled a miracle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a Sword Cultivator, she sensed the Supreme Sword Way instantly, and found herself immersed in it, unable to extricate herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She seemed to see a figure gently swinging a sword, and the world was destroyed. The fearsome Sword Qi filled every corner of Heaven and Earth, its sharp aura slicing through everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blood immediately flowed from her eyes, and Lin Fang turned his head toward Feng Jiu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feng Jiu smiled faintly and gently pointed, causing Bai Su to suddenly fall to the ground, her eyes blurring, yet the corners of her mouth lifted into a slight smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In just an instant, she felt her understanding of the Sword Dao had climbed a notch, and crucially, she gained a more profound comprehension of the eerie longsword in her hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to the sword’s intent for slaughter, the Sword Intent of the Divine Venerable was purer, devoid of good and evil, merely sheer destruction—destruction of all things, destruction of the universe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This power was far more advanced; upon understanding it, looking back at the slaughtering intent hidden in the longsword felt trivial.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’d better thank the Demon Emperor quickly for saving your life. Had it not been for her pulling you from that state, you would have turned into a sword,\" White Ape said softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Su quickly got up to thank Feng Jiu, but Feng Jiu helped her up, saying, \"It was nothing, just a helping hand. If you want to thank me, you can take a position in my Demon Court someday. For Lin Fang’s sake, I won’t mistreat you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Fang stood beside her, speechless; this girl never passed up a chance to win people over. But Bai Su must have had her special qualities for Feng Jiu to take such notice.\u003C\u002Fp>",1495,"2026-06-05T19:13:35.782Z",1,"novelbin.me","e9f2172ea630db47e247ff49043c63f0c33551de1c5a8c7d2be446275701bc24","this-journey-to-the-west-is-so-terrifying-chapter-255","this-journey-to-the-west-is-so-terrifying-chapter-253",578,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthis-journey-to-the-west-is-so-terrifying-cover.jpg"]
