Chapter 118

Zhong Kui agreed with the Lan family’s father and son on some matters, and then prepared to leave with his two disciples.

Only before leaving was he stopped by Song Chun Gui, who wanted Fan Wu She to give an account of the location of the demon foal Wuya first.

Zhong Kui chided nonchalantly, “Why do you care about the Demon Supreme’s horse at the moment. A new Demon Supreme will be born soon!”

Song Chun Gui had only one arm and could not bow with his hands held in front, so he bowed his body to Zhong Kui and said with a straight face, “By order of my master, I ask Heaven Master and the two Impermanence Immortals to tell me where Wuya is, and I will go and bring back the demon foal to prevent future trouble. This matter is equally important.”

“Future trouble, what future trouble?” Fan Wu She snorted a laugh, “Fear of the magical weapon being robbed by others?”

“Master did this for the peace of all the people in Jiuzhou. Even if it’s the Demon Supreme’s horse, it can’t be taken lightly.” Song Chun Gui stood in front of the three, his words were polite but his expression was very cold and hard, in the manner of not letting them go until they said so, “Heaven Master and two Impermanence Immortals, please tell me.”

Zhong Kui snorted coldly, “Wu She.”

Fan Wu She made up some nonsense, “After you leave Shazhou, go twenty miles west. There is a short rock, and Wuya is underneath.”

Only then did Song Chun Gui back away.

They were about to walk out of the tea house when they saw a disciple of the Wuliang Sect fly into the tea house, and as soon as he landed, he ran inside in a frenzy, “Sect Leader Master, Sect Leader Master, something bad happened!”

The master and disciples looked at each other and turned back again.

Li Bu Yu walked out in a stroll and said with a frown, “What’s the matter with all the shouting?”

The disciple said urgently, “Qi Meng Sheng, Qi Meng Sheng may have found the reincarnation of the human emperor!”

The faces of those present changed greatly, and Xie Bi An was even more dazed. His first thought was that Qi Meng Sheng might be on her way back to kill him.

“Speak clearly!”

The disciple gasped, “On the orders of master, the disciples tracked Qi Meng Sheng and the others. They originally flew towards the hinterland of the Central Plains. Yesterday they arrived at the Yuzhou, and after resting for a night, they did not go deeper into the Central Plains, but instead started to return to the Pass. I then sent my junior brother to poke around where they had landed, but to my surprise, they took advantage of the night to attack Biyun Hall in Yuzhou, killing many people and digging up the golden core of Biyun Hall’s young master Yang Yu!”

“Biyun Hall?” Li Bu Yu was shocked, “The young master of Biyun Hall is the reincarnation of Emperor Kong Hua?”

Although Biyun Hall also belonged to the same Immortal Alliance, it was only a small sect. Yuzhou was close to Daming and once belonged to the realm of the Daming Song Clan. With the destruction of the Song Clan, the Immortal Alliance strictly forbade anyone to go near the old site of the Wuji Palace and blocked off the Song’s cave. Since then, the Central Plains hinterland had fallen into ruin, scattered with many large and small sects, but none of them had become accomplished.

“When Qi Meng Sheng got the Golden Trunk Jade Policy, she went straight to Yuzhou, took this core, and immediately turned back and flew towards Kunlun, which … does seem to be the case.”

Xie Bi An glanced at Fan Wu She with trepidation, who also had an unsightly look on his face.

No one knew better than him who was the reincarnation of Song Zi Heng, and that person was beside himself, and there was no way it could be any young master of Biyun Hall.

“This Yang Yu, I have seen him at Jiaolong Assembly before.” Zhao Wen said suspiciously, “Because he happened to have a match with my disciple at that time, so he had some impression.”

“How is his natural talent?”

In fact, the answer to this question, even if the crowd didn’t ask, they knew in their hearts that if Yang Yu had been born with superior roots and bones, the word would have spread throughout the entire immortal cultivation world as soon as he was born. If a small sect got a highly gifted offspring, they would most likely be sent to a top immortal sect such as Wuliang Sect, and if they were lucky enough to be the disciple of the Sect Leader, it would be like taking chickens and dogs and the whole family to ascend. Even if they didn’t make it, with their qualifications they could at least be the disciple of the elders, and for the small sect, that’s also a great way to honour their ancestors.

But this Yang Yu, no one had ever heard of him.

Zhao Wen said cautiously, “At that time he was still young, maybe just turned twelve, and was just brought by his father to experience a little. His roots and bones, well, it’s considered good quality, but …”

But far from the top immortal roots of the legendary Emperor Kong Hua.

Such a descendant, outstanding is outstanding, but not rare.

So everyone was confused.

“This … reincarnation won’t change the roots, will it?” Lan Zi Zhen looked at Zhong Kui.

Zhong Kui shook his head, “Appearance, male or female, and body, all may change a bit, and the root and bone may naturally change as well.”

“All of them may change? Then the previous life and the next life would really be two different people.”

“No, there is only one thing that remains the same.” Zhong Kui said, “That is the destiny.”

Fan Wu She stole a glance at Xie Bi An, thankful that the two had not changed, whether in appearance, male or female, or in their roots and bones, so that he could be found by him.

“So, although that child has mediocre qualifications, as long as he is of imperial destiny, he will still be useful to Qi Meng Sheng.” Li Bu Yu said in a deep voice, “Oh no, Qi Meng Sheng must be going to Shen Nong Ding to refine the core as soon as possible.”

“Then is Yang Yu really the reincarnation of Emperor Kong Hua?” Xie Bi An couldn’t help but question, “It’s only been one night, would Qi Meng Sheng be too quick to find him?” Although he did not dare to assert that he was definitely the reincarnation of Song Zi Heng, all the clues overlapped. He was reluctant and even fearful, but he already believed it.

But before he could go back to the Underworld and find a way to confirm it, he got the news that Qi Meng Sheng had found the reincarnation of the Human Emperor?

If he was not the reincarnation of the Human Emperor, that would be good, but if Qi Meng Sheng had really gotten hold of the reincarnated Song Zi Heng’s golden core, then it would be doomed.

“It’s indeed too soon.” Zhong Kui gave a complicated look at Xie Bi An.

“But the Golden Trunk Jade Policy is in their hands. If it wasn’t written clearly and plainly on it, how would Qi Meng Sheng have purposely flown to Yuzhou to kill someone and dig up the Core?” Song Chun Gui said gruffly, “She got that Core, and the Cangyu Sect is skilled in using the Shen Nong Ding to refine cores …”

The faces of those present went pale.

They had originally thought that it would not take a moment for Qi Meng Sheng to find the reincarnation of the Human Emperor and then obtain the Core, and that they would still have time to make more preparations, but they had not expected her to be so fast, catching them off guard.

Zhong Kui asked, “How long does it take for the Cangyu Sect to refine the Core?”

“It is said that the slowest is 49 days, but if it is fast, it will only take 7 days.”

“We still have a chance to stop her.” Li Bu Yu clenched his fist, “I will issue an alliance order and call everyone in the world to fight the demonic woman.”

Zhong Kui said, “Immortal Alliance Li, you go to Kunlun as soon as possible. I have an important matter and must return to the Underworld. In three days, I will meet you at the Shen Nong Ding.”

Li Bu Yu looked deeply at Zhong Kui: “Okay, see you in three days.”

—

The three of them did not dare to delay and flew into the sky on their swords, returning to Fengdu City as quickly as possible.

Fengdu was still as lively as usual, but the people here would never have imagined that a thousand miles away, in Kunlun, the biggest crisis in a hundred years is breaking out.

Xie Bi An used Wuqiongbi to open the Yin Yang Monument, and the three of them finally returned to Jiuyou.

When Bo Zhu saw them, he jumped up and down in excitement, screaming, “Oh my God, you’re back! Heaven Master! Little White Master! I missed you guys so much!” He stifled his head and threw himself into Xie Bi An’s arms.

Fan Wu She grabbed him by the back of his neck.

Bo Zhu was a little scared of Fan Wu She and mumbled, “Black Master …”

Fan Wu She pushed him aside: “Senior brother is injured, don’t be reckless.”

“Little White Master, you’re injured? Where are you injured?”

Xie Bi An gently smoothed Bo Zhu’s collar and smiled, “It’s nothing, it’s almost healed.”

Bo Zhu sniffled and wept, “Why have you all been gone for so long at once? It’s been months. I’ve been worried sick. I thought that even if you guys had died, you guys should have come back already.”

Zhong Kui knocked Bo Zhu on the head, “What broken mouth.”

Bo Zhu held his head, feeling aggrieved, “Heaven Master, you came back and left in a hurry last time, and the human soul you brought back is still with King Qinguang*.”

They walked into the Heaven Master’s Palace and Zhong Kui frowned, “There’s another breach in my boundary, is Jiang Qu Lian here again?”

“Probably. With my cultivation level, I wouldn’t know if the Red King had come.” When he heard the name “Jiang Qu Lian”, Bo Zhu subconsciously shivered. There was no one among them who was not afraid of the Red King, “That goose we kept for New Year’s Eve cried out several times out of the blue, maybe it noticed the Red King.”

Xie Bi An couldn’t help but be angry, “Master, in your absence, the Red King has been too arrogant. I’m afraid it seems that he has come more than once?”

Zhong Kui grunted heavily, “Want to steal my magical weapon? Dream on.”

If Jiang Qu Lian wanted to break through Zhong Kui’s boundary, he would have to make a big fuss. Then he would be breaking the precepts of the Underworld and would certainly be punished. So, he only dared to come stealthily, yet unable to get his way.

Fan Wu She said, “He wanted that puppet that badly?”

“I don’t know what he wants to do in the mortal realm, it’s nothing good anyway.”

“He’s really stupid.” Fan Wu She said, “A magical weapon that important, Master would surely keep it on his body. Master’s Qiankun Pouch is the safest.”

“Hey, what kind of important magical weapon is that. He’s the only one who wants it.”

Fan Wu She narrowed his eyes, remembering that cupboard inside Zhong Kui’s bedchamber, it was full of weapons and magic treasures. When Zhong Kui gifted him the sword and the hooking rope, he just swept through it, but it was too messy and he didn’t see any puppet for a while.

“Right, I have to go and get a sword to replace Qingfeng Sword for the time being.” Zhong Kui said, “Bi An, Wu She, you guys go back and rest.”

“Master, we have an appointment with the Immortal Alliance to meet at Kunlun in three days. After shaving off the time on the road, we have to leave tomorrow night at the latest. Time is so tight, I want to meet with Official Lord Cui as soon as possible.”

Zhong Kui looked at Xie Bi An, his expression was calm: “You don’t need to see him.”

“Why?” Xie Bi An said in disbelief, “Only Official Lord Cui may have a way for me to determine whether or not I was Emperor Kong Hua in my past life.”

“Whether you are or not, you must stay in the Underworld, in the Heaven Master’s Palace, and must not leave.”

Xie Bi An stared in disbelief.

Fan Wu She frowned. He understood Zhong Kui’s intention. Right now, this was indeed the best way to protect Xie Bi An. Although the Golden Trunk Jade Policy should not be wrong, Zhong Kui, including Xie Bi An himself, did not quite believe that Yang Yu was the reincarnation of the Human Emperor.

“I have already reset the Heaven Master Palace’s boundary, so neither of you can get out.” Zhong Kui did not allow a word to be said, “Be good and stay in the Heaven Master’s Palace to cultivate and wait for my return.”

“Master!” Xie Bi An shouted, “You are simply muddle-headed! I want to go with you. No matter what enemies I face or what happens, I want to stand with you.”

Zhong Kui’s usual laziness was restrained and his expression was grave and stern, not angry but powerful: “My mind is made up, stay obediently.” After saying this, he walked away without looking back.

“Master!” Xie Bi An let out a low roar of unwillingness.
