Chapter 103: Trapped in Ashes, Li Li's Mouth Sealed

Shen Qingli was shocked!

The next moment—

"It's me."

A familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar voice came over.

Shen Qingli raised her eyebrows in surprise, and indeed saw a face very familiar.

His aura was unrestrained, his eyes wanton, as if he were the supreme Dao Lord who commanded heaven, earth, gods, and demons.

The words "Shizun" on the tip of her tongue almost came out……

But he called out, "Older sister."

She didn't know if she was seeing things.

In that instant, the peerless Ultimate Dao Lord appeared before her eyes.

In the blink of an eye, he turned into a handsome, elegant youth, as graceful as a jade tree in the wind.

Shen Qingli was dumbfounded, "... A Jin?"

"It's me," he said.

Shen Qingli blinked, then looked again!

Indeed, it was that handsome youth, just taller, with sharper features.

The baby fat from before was gone; he was slender and upright, his bearing like a swaying jade tree.

Compared to her father, he had less coldness and more youthful arrogance, like a beautiful jade person.

If it weren't for the wrong demeanor……

He really was her master's true form.

Isn't this a father-son relationship?

"What exactly is the relationship between you and my Shizun, the Taiyi Divine Lord?"

Shen Qingli blurted out, "They must be related by blood; they can't just coincidentally look alike."

"Who!" a shout echoed over.

Shen Qingli then suddenly remembered she was following the Senior Martial Sister.

Di Jin had already grabbed her and pulled her to the side, and at the same time——

In the darkness ahead, a layer of faint light spread out, and Liu Yuanhong walked out from within.

By his side stood Liu Meng, who looked around anxiously, asking, "Is anyone there?"

Liu Yuanhong ignored her, carefully inspecting the surroundings, even coming up to Shen Qingli and the other person, but he was as if blind, seeing nothing of them.

Nevertheless, cautious Liu Yuanhong checked three times before retreating; the layer of faint light flickered back, and the darkness returned to obscurity.

With Shen Qingli's eyesight, she could see that layer of faint light was an exquisite seal! Yet she hadn't noticed it just now.

No, she couldn't see it now either.

Only when Liu Yuanhong closed or activated it could she see that seal; even if she activated her Taiyi Dark Pupil, the result was the same.

"See the problem?" Di Jin asked.

Shen Qingli nodded, "This seal is very ingenious."

"Not only that; if you had rashly followed in, your cultivation would have been sealed, leaving you at anyone's mercy."

Shen Qingli had no doubt about his words, "Was it specially made for me?"

"Pretty much, but it's not specifically for you; even now, no one in the Hunyuan Sect could set up a seal of this level."

"Was it set by a god descending to the realm?" Shen Qingli pondered; the Hunyuan Sect had gone to great lengths to deal with her.

"Not just that," Di Jin explained. "Even I can't break it; it must have been set by the Pei clan's ancestors, and this place is likely an ancient site."

"Ancient?" Shen Qingli's voice turned solemn. "Do they think so highly of me?"

"You're the one who just wiped out the Su Nv Sect."

"That's Li Li."

"Meow~"

A sound like a cat's meow rang out.

Shen Qingli looked at her bosom with a forehead full of black lines.

Usually fierce toward others, the Nine Dark Beast was timidly learning to meow at Di Jin.

"Good," Di Jin also praised its affected meow.

The Nine Dark Beast immediately smiled, eyes narrowed, still curled in Shen Qingli's bosom.

But Di Jin had already lifted it by the scruff, truly treating it like a cat and hoisting it onto his shoulder.

The Nine Dark Beast immediately stopped grinning, lying low like a guilty dog, not daring to move.

Shen Qingli stared speechlessly, "... Stop pretending; don't wait to sneak up and bite A Jin."

Nine Dark Beast: …

Would it dare??

Give it eight hundred courages, and it still wouldn't dare!

It just wanted to say, feeling wronged, but——

Di Jin pinched it! It instantly stiffened.

"Understood."

This person's secret, he forbids it from speaking.

"No way, it's raised by the older sister; it's definitely well-behaved."

"Heh." Shen Qingli reminded, "It's already bitten the Tenth Brother and the Senior Martial Sister's hands until they swelled."

"That's because they aren't close to my sister, so it isn't close either."

"?"

Shen Qingli didn't think so, but just a moment later she realized she had been leaning in Ah Jin's embrace all along.

The little boy from before had not only grown taller, his chest had broadened too; standing behind her, he was like an impenetrable wall, covering her completely.

"How come you've grown so much in just half a year?" Shen Qingli pushed away the chest pressed against her back, feeling it improper, "You're this big already—you can't keep being all clingy."

"You've grown up and still can't be my brother?" Di Jin's face fell; he was handsome, his features had matured, making him even more handsome; when his face drooped, his naturally drooping lashes looked pitiful, evoking pity.

"Yes, yes, yes, still!" Shen Qingli couldn't stand him, "How did you come back? Did it go smoothly? I couldn't find any news of you."

Di Jin didn't speak; the Jiu Li on his shoulder cocked its head and rolled its eyes! Pretending, what a pretentious thing!

"Not going well?" Shen Qingli worried.

"Not bad, but I sneaked out."

The Jiu Li believes it a hundred percent!

If you don't sneak out, you definitely can't make it to Sheng Long Tian.

However, the Jiu Li turned its head back and gave Di Jin a furtive glance.

To come down, the price has been huge……

"You sneaked out again! What about the two who were supposed to bring you back?"

"I ditched them." Di Jin whispered, "As soon as I slipped out, I heard you were coming to Hunyuan Sect, so I've been waiting here, and sure enough I waited for you."

"How long have you been waiting? Haven't you been bullied?" Shen Qingli said crossly, "Why didn't you first go to Changshui City to find me? Hunyuan Sect has no good people, and you aren't afraid of being caught."

"Then I'm not that useless." Di Jin said, "I can see this restriction isn't simple, and I even saved my sister."

"Eyesight and strength aren't the same thing." Shen Qingli reached out to feel Di Jin's pulse, confirmed he was indeed unharmed, then relaxed, "Come on, let's go back and see Father."

With this restriction blocking the way, Shen Qingli couldn't see the person she wanted to meet for a while; she could only think of a long-term plan.

But Di Jin said, "Sister, don't you want to go in?"

"Do you have a way?" Shen Qingli exclaimed.

"Of course." Di Jin said cheerfully, but added, "I can only help you see this restriction; opening it still requires you to do it."

"Fine." Shen Qingli said without further ado, "You speak, I'll break it."

Di Jin didn't hesitate, instead he slit his fingertip, letting blood spill out!

"What are you doing?" Shen Qingli exclaimed in shock.

Di Jin instead drew a talisman with the blood from his fingertip, a layer of purple-gold talisman light enveloping Shen Qingli's eyes.

"My bloodline is rather special; it can help you dispel the bewildering obstruction—look closely, maybe you can see it?"

Through the purple-gold talisman light, Shen Qingli also activated her Taiyi Dark Pupils; before her eyes appeared a complex restriction, actually a hundred times more complex than the one on Jiu Li's body.

"I might not be able to break it." Shen Qingli's confidence waned.

"We'll do it together." Di Jin's fingertip moved first, purple-gold light threads hooking open a restriction line.

Shen Qingli jumped in fright; a restriction of this level, if mishandled, could destroy both body and soul!

Fortunately, the restriction line he hooked open was fine……

"You scared me to death—don't move recklessly anymore, you should ask me first."

"Okay." He replied obediently.

Afterwards, before each move, Di Jin indeed always told Shen Qingli in advance.

Brother and sister working together, they finally hooked open a small opening in the ever-changing restriction net.

"Big enough for us to get in, but too large would be easily detected."

Before Shen Qingli finished speaking, she had already grabbed Di Jin's hand and darted into the restriction.

But as soon as they entered, they were immediately detected!

"Sure enough, you followed!"
