Chapter 109: Zifu Saintess

Jiang Xuan never expected that Yao Xi would fall so low, and that it was actually connected to him, actually because of his coercion back then.

"So among the Ten Great Disciples, you've already killed six?" Jiang Xuan's gaze flickered with slight surprise.

Yao Xi laughed, "What Ten Great Disciples? They're just a bunch of losers competing for the Son of Saint title. How could the Holy Land's Son of Saint be matched by such mediocre people?"

Seemingly sensing her words carried a bit of pride, Yao Xi continued, "Of course, compared to you, a monster genius, who in the present world dares to claim their talent is unmatched?"

Yao Xi struggled to prop herself up, trying her best to rise, leaning her back against the stone cave wall. She was much more comfortable now. At this moment, she wore Jiang Xuan's blue-green clothes, her well-proportioned, exquisite figure revealing a heroic and graceful charm. As her body gradually rose, her round, smooth, and slender beautiful legs appeared and disappeared faintly, extremely alluring. Her feet were like the most precious mutton-fat white jade of time, crystal clear and transparent, every curve radiating a natural luster, displaying an indescribable beauty that made one yearn.

The brief conversation ended just like that, slowly drawing to a close. The two had nothing more to say, and for a while, the mountain cave fell into a brief silence.

At this moment, Xiao Nian Nian climbed onto the stone where Yao Xi was.

"Big Sister, don't be afraid, the bad guys have all been chased away by Big Brother." Although Xiao Nian Nian didn't quite understand, she thought this beautiful sister must have been bullied by bad guys. Fortunately, Big Brother was powerful and had chased all the bad guys away.

"So cute!" Yao Xi looked at Xiao Nian Nian's innocent, clear eyes, ethereal and limpid, and she herself was infected. She tried hard to raise her hand, touching Nian Nian's little face, feeling her heart was about to melt.

"Big Brother, right? You'll protect me and Big Sister, right?"

Jiang Xuan at this moment instead didn't know how to answer. Protection was impossible—he was Jiang Xuan, who suppressed Yaoguang with his sword and matched great powers with his strength. How could he possibly be a bodyguard?

Jiang Xuan laughed heartily, touched Xiao Nian Nian's little horns braid, and said, "Big Brother will of course protect Xiao Nian Nian."

"Big Brother, you exposed Big Sister! You still say you'll protect Big Sister."

"I'll protect both, I'll protect both." Jiang Xuan was helpless and could only placate her.

……

Northern Domain, Shen City.

On this day, the lingering bell sound resounded through heaven and earth, and the entire Northern Domain trembled along with the palace.

Zi Shan, also known as Magic Mountain, had endless legends about it. It was said to be the dojo of the most powerful Great Emperor of the Human Race, and his imperial weapon, the Beginningless Bell, was left behind here. This bell sound that resounded through heaven and earth came from the Beginningless Bell. For a while, the wind and clouds of Tianxia stirred, becoming the focus of existence.

Over several months, the major Holy Lands attacked Zi Shan one after another, wanting to obtain the inheritance of the Extreme Dao Great Emperor, but all ended in failure. There were even rumors that several Holy Masters were backlashed by Zi Shan's array patterns and suffered heavy injuries, and many old-generation great powers were thus destroyed in body and spirit.

Upon hearing this news, countless people were shocked and disbelieving. Holy Masters and great powers were about to fall—there truly was a Great Terror within Zi Shan.

This time, several major Holy Lands of Donghuang reached an agreement with the Thirteen Bandits of the Northern Territory. Both sides temporarily made peace and jointly activated the imperial weapon Swallowing Heaven Demon Jar, hoping to use its power to attack Zi Shan again, but it still ended in failure.

Someone saw terrifying array patterns burst forth from Zi Shan, shaking and obliterating all tangible and intangible things. If not for the critical moment when the Swallowing Heaven Demon Jar surged and blocked the terrifying heavenly sound of the Beginningless Bell, everyone would probably have fallen.

The Longwen Black Gold Cauldron, Hengyu Furnace, and Void Mirror did not appear; half an imperial weapon was ultimately no match for the Beginningless Bell.

"Hmph, can Zi Shan be entered by this group of people?" A large black dog stood upright, wearing big floral underpants, and said disdainfully.

"What treasures are inside Zi Shan?" Ye Fan looked at the big black dog. He always felt the black-yellow dog seemed to know Zi Shan very well.

"Kid, do you want the Wu Shi Sutra?"

"Do you have the Wu Shi Sutra in your hand?" Ye Fan and Pang Bo were both greatly shocked, looking at the big black dog.

The big black dog felt a bit creeped out by being looked at, took several steps back, and said, "Why are your eyes like wolves, all glowing with green light?"

The major Holy Lands of Donghuang and the great powers of Zhongzhou, to attack Zi Shan and obtain the inheritance of the Wushi Great Emperor, tried every means. Except for the imperial weapons used to suppress their foundations not coming out, they tried every means. But the big black dog suddenly blurted out such a sentence; anyone who heard it would be greatly surprised.

Ye Fan and Pang Bo, though they cultivated the complete Swallowing Heaven Demonic Art, always remembered Jiang Xuan's warning not to learn it all, Furnace Nurtures Hundred Scriptures. Hearing the big black dog suddenly say such a thing at this moment, they immediately turned pale with shock.

"This dead dog just likes to blow hot air. It won't use some Black Emperor Classic to deceive people again, will it?" Pang Bo spoke up.

The big black dog cursed, clasped his paws behind his back, raised his communication, lifted his head to look at the sky, and said, "This Emperor surveys the long river of time and space. What can be hidden from this Emperor? I have a plan to obtain the Wu Shi Sutra. It depends on whether you, Ye Kid, have the guts."

The two men's expressions changed. They stared at the big black dog, wondering how much truth there was in his boasting, and couldn't help but be suspicious, asking, "What exactly is the plan?"

"Ye Kid, you are a Holy Body. The Saintess of the Zifu Holy Land is an Innate Dao Body. The Wu Shi Sutra cannot be opened except by an Innate Dao Body Holy Embryo. You just need to kidnap that Saintess, and I will have a way to obtain the Wu Shi Sutra." The big black dog rolled his eyeballs and spoke.

……

Three Days Later, Ye Fan, Pang Bo, and the big black dog had prepared everything on the Ice Plain, and finally waited for the Saintess of Zi Fu.

Ye Fan had the Mother Qi Cauldron of All Things on his head top and carried the God-Beating Whip on his back, standing alone on the Ice Plain while the others hid themselves.

The Saintess of Zi Fu was not very old, about twenty years old. Her purple clothes fluttered as she stood in the ice and snow like a purple Immortal Flower.

Her figure was slender, her waist thin, her hair dancing lightly, enveloped in purple Qi. Her peerless face was hazy, her brow shining, radiating purple mist and blooming purple clouds—a Dao Seal.

She stood quietly in the wind and snow, calmly looking at Ye Fan, as if united with Tian Di, integrated into the Dao of self and nature.

Ye Fan felt his heart palpitate. This woman was too powerful; he could not see through her depth at a glance.

"Immortal of Zi Fu, may I ask your esteemed name?"

"Zixia." The Zifu Saintess's voice was calm, without waves or ripples. She said, "You have not entered the Four Extremes Secret Realm, yet you are fearless. You must have prepared here for a long time, right? Let your friends come out."

Ye Fan was surprised. Immortal Zixia was extraordinary; she saw through everything in an instant. Even if they had prepared early, she would probably be difficult to deal with.

"Actually, I don't want to be your enemy, but all the Holy Lands have sent Disciples to seek me, wanting my cauldron. It really makes it hard for me to face them calmly."

"So you've joined forces with experts to prepare to assassinate me here?" Zixia remained calm and composed.

Ye Fan smiled: "It's not assassination. If Immortal Zixia is willing to travel with me and be a guest for some time, I think we can get along peacefully."

"You want to place me under house arrest? Then come." Zixia's voice carried a magnetic quality, still without waves, but very pleasant to hear.

Around them, star-substance stones rose up, radiating light. Star after star twinkled, making Tian Di a dreamlike scene.
