Chapter 436 - 423 Who Else but Me

Chapter 436: Chapter 423 Who Else but MeVermilion Bird ultimately didn’t take the bag with her.

Being mocked by Tang Wanju for stealing, she really couldn’t afford to lose that person.

Forget it, might as well make the most of the night for a good interrogation. Once it’s mostly done, it’s time to leave. Who wants to stay here forever, unable to get intimate with those who remove masks and serve. Should she watch him getting cozy with Tang Wanju? ... Eh, seems like it might not be impossible to watch, we’ll see.

The results of the interrogation of this "Ancient Demon Path Soul"... how to say it... weren’t surprising, but also not disappointing.

The lack of surprise was because this creature’s status was quite far below Emperor Ye and the Four Symbols. It knew very little about the Ancient Four Symbols, even less than they did. It barely had the information they most wanted to know, and certainly no unexpected gains.

But some anecdotes, secret teachings, relationships between characters and forces, behavioral logic, and rules from ancient times are invaluable data. Ying Wu and the Demon Suppression Department side will probably summarize and organize them, and the Four Symbols Sect cannot fall behind.

Their own scriptures say little about others’ affairs, lacking a holistic understanding. Once the God Demons of the last epoch return, a lot of this knowledge will inevitably be useful.

And this scoundrel’s insight into the Ancient Witchcraft’s Blood Puppet, Witchcraft, and the undying Primordial Spirit resulting from surviving across epochs, all count as extremely precious treasures of this world. For Vermilion Bird and Xuanwu’s current cultivation, they are of great reference value.

Moreover, the most crucial point was that, finally, someone from the last epoch told everyone what the cultivation after the Third Layer Secret Treasure was.

Although the scriptures exist, everyone is still

"Earlier, when I asked Ying Wu, he said that the Transformed Lotus and Bodhi Fruit are most likely in the Maitreya Secret Realm, but it turned out to be a minor realm. Did you find what you were looking for?"

Tang Wanzhuang’s eyes softened; this guy might be even more dissolute now, but his affection for her was genuine.

She let out a small sigh, "Yes, this place used to be an Ancient Buddhist Sect’s treasure spot on the back of the mountain, some of their collections are still here. It benefited Maitreya before; otherwise, how could he have reached the Second Layer Secret Treasure? Fortunately, there are still a lot of good items left, the Transformed Lotus and Bodhi Fruit included."

Zhao Changhe let out a sigh of relief, "Then why the sigh?"

"Ying Wu said that there’s news about the Yunyang Leaf. His people combed through the records and found that the Ancient Spirit Clan once had a holy mountain called Yunyang Mountain, but it’s unclear if it’s related." Tang Wanzhuang paused then suddenly said, "You know, some deals I had with Sisi played a major role in this battle."

Zhao Changhe was surprised, "What do you mean?"

"The bag used to catch that residual soul was a Spirit Bag used by the Spirit Clan for raising gu. When Sisi infiltrated the Maitreya Sect, she noticed they were practicing Gu Technique. A few months ago, when she came to collect the Secret Treasure Level Sword Manual, she gave me this Spirit Bag, saying it would definitely be useful. And it was. I suspect this residual soul has some connection with the Ancient Spirit Clan..."

"Should we ask Sisi next time she comes?"

"Now, the problem is, it’s been a long time since Sisi has visited..." Tang Wanzhuang said, "She’s very cautious, always coming to us unilaterally, refusing to let us know where her Spirit Clan is advancing. Once she stops coming, we lose contact."

"It’s been a long time... she hasn’t run into trouble, has she?" Zhao Changhe’s thoughts grew heavy, "Or maybe she’s grown tired of our trade and feels it’s meaningless?"

"That shouldn’t be the case; she’s very interested in those Sword Manuals." Tang Wanzhuang said, "Given the situation, I feel we can’t passively wait for her. We need to take the initiative to find her. I’ve already sent people to the southwest..."

Zhao Changhe was curious, "But that’s a Secret Realm, not the ordinary southwest domains. How do you find her by just sending people?"

"I put a tracking spell on her without her noticing. Judging from her last visit, neither she nor her clan has discovered it. As long as our people can get near the entrance to the Secret Realm, they should be able to sense something." Tang Wanzhuang, feeling a headache coming on, rubbed her temples, "The problem now is, I don’t know who would be the right person to send. Marquis Wu Ping cannot leave lightly, and ordinary people don’t have the ability to sense or track this way. Even if they get in, it’s very dangerous. Their exclusivity and caution mean that intruders have a high chance of dying inside."

Zhao Changhe blinked, "How did you track her? Tell me."

Tang Wanzhuang started, "You can’t go! That’s not—I’m discussing and complaining to you, not trying to trick you into going, don’t misunderstand!"

"What are you getting nervous about?" Zhao Changhe chuckled, "Someone has to go anyway, and I’m a Jade Token Secret Agent of the Demon Suppression Department. If not me, then who?"

"Don’t be reckless; there might be several people at the Earth List level in there."

"In fact, I mainly just want to go. I was coming to talk to you about it, and it just happens to coincide with this."

Tang Wanzhuang was puzzled, "Why would you go? To find Sisi?"

"... My Blood Shura Body’s evolution should happen there. I was feeling like I’ve been away from the Central Plains for too long and unsure if it was right, but since it’s suitable now, then let’s go."

PS: Don’t start fantasizing about going back to Creation again; guessing is fine, but taking that as truth then blaming the author for indulging in delusions—could those understanders perhaps go treat their diagnosings first? Really sweating beans here.jpg
