Chapter 616: Chapter 275: The First Nascent Soul Monster to Fall [Requesting Monthly Votes]

“The Sea Map?”

Hua Yaoyue didn’t turn around, but sent a transmission saying, “This thing is somewhat useful. Once we return, make an imprint for me.”

“Alright.”

Since it was something the master needed, Ji Yuan naturally had no hesitations. After some thought, he simply said it out loud.

“There’s also a Nascent Soul Technique of inheritance, but it’s a Demon Path Technique.”

“That would be the one practiced by the old demon who crossed the sea. What’s it called again? I can’t quite recall. Regardless, the power is indeed considerable. When you go back, you can inherit it and see if there are any insights you can glean from it.”

“Alright, master, do you need it?”

“Why would I need that? Do you think I’m like you, always thinking of becoming a demon cultivator?”

Ji Yuan: “…”

It’s Qiu Qianhai who wants to be a demon cultivator, what does that have to do with me, Ji Yuan?

I’ve always liked to act with chivalry, saving people from perilous situations, alright?

But there’s no need to talk to the master about this; he wouldn’t understand anyway. Ji Yuan continued to ask, “Master, do you remember the matter of the Yin Ghost Sect that I asked you about last time?”

Hua Yaoyue seemed to recall for a moment before saying, “I remember. What’s up?”

“I also got something related to the Yin Ghost Sect from the old demon who crossed the sea. So, I’m wondering if the Yin Ghost Sect might be a sect originating from the Jiyuan Continent. Perhaps due to some accident, some of its legacy ended up in our Cangluo Continent?”

This was a possibility Ji Yuan had considered before.

After all, the Yin Ghost Sect having a Divine Soul Technique meant the sect couldn’t be obscure.

However, in the history of the Cangluo Continent, there was indeed no well-known sect named the Yin Ghost Sect, leaving only one possibility.

The Yin Ghost Sect was a sect from another continent.

Unfortunately, Ji Yuan hadn’t found any concrete evidence until today when he got this token of the Yin Ghost Sect from the old demon’s Storage Bag.

“It’s not impossible.”

Hua Yaoyue wouldn’t speak definitively about uncertain matters.

“But over on the Jiyuan Continent, I didn’t stay long, so I’m not very familiar with the situation there. You’ll have to go there yourself someday to find out.”

“What, master, you’ve been to the Jiyuan Continent?”

Ji Yuan grasped onto the key point in her words.

“Yes.”

Hua Yaoyue said no more, and Ji Yuan found it inappropriate to ask further.

… As it seems now, both of the continents near Cangluo Continent bear marks left by Hua Yaoyue.

She’s been to the Jiyuan Continent, and as for the Desolate Ancient Continent, she’s even visited the Taiyi Immortal Sect.

Sometimes Ji Yuan really wanted to ask where Hua Yaoyue actually came from.

Unfortunately, if she didn’t want to say, asking would be in vain. If she wanted to say, she would say it without being asked.

“After returning this time, devote yourself to cultivation, heal your wounds. I’ll talk to Xuan Shui about it, and you all won’t have to venture out again,” Hua Yaoyue said in a deep voice.

Among those present, the only one daring to oppose her was Ran Kui.

“Master, I want to go to Shang…”

Regrettably, before he could finish, Hua Yaoyue interrupted directly, “After this, the world’s situation will change. By then, there’ll be demons you can’t slay enough of. What you need to do is quickly refine your Lifebound Magical Treasure so that you can at least protect your junior brothers and sisters.”

Mentioning this, Ran Kui felt ashamed, feeling he almost caused harm to his junior siblings.

He silently lowered his head.

“Don’t worry, master, I’ll cultivate diligently once I return.”

Hua Yaoyue didn’t bother responding to him anymore.

Neither Yun Qianzai nor Phoenix Peach knew what was happening, only assuming Hua Yaoyue was concerned for their safety.

Only Ji Yuan understood what Hua Yaoyue meant.

It likely wouldn’t be long before Shangxi launched an all-out assault. By then, how long Shang Mountain could hold was anyone’s guess.

They came swiftly, and the return was even swifter.

Ji Yuan had only been adjusting his breath in the cabin for a few days before he heard Hua Yaoyue’s voice saying they’d arrived.

He hastily emerged from the cabin, only to find the Flying Boat already hovering above Wuyou Island, with even Yun Qianzai having been sent back by Hua Yaoyue.

The only one left on the boat was Ji Yuan.

“Then I shall return first, master.”

“Yes, go back and prepare well. I’ll go meet that old lady Kong Xifeng and see what she has to say.”

Thinking of what’s to come, Hua Yaoyue couldn’t help but feel amused.

“Yes, disciple takes leave.”

Ji Yuan still needed to return and further study the Yin Ghost Sect’s token, as well as inherit that Demon Path Technique to see if there were any useful parts.

As for the Sea Map, he had to make a copy for Hua Yaoyue.

Beyond that, he needed to utilize the Scripture Pavilion for cultivation, striving to condense his next Flying Sword as soon as possible.

And Body Refinement, Artifact Refining… Damn, there’s so damn much to do!

Ji Yuan descended from the Flying Boat, heading straight back to Wuyou Island, glancing at the neighboring Hu Yue Island along the way… Dong Qian still hadn’t returned.

…

Once Ji Yuan left, Hua Yaoyue received the large building-ship Flying Boat, and with one stride, headed straight for Qingfeng Island.

Coming to Qingfeng Island, she needed no permission from Kong Xifeng but directly intruded.

When Hua Yaoyue returned to the Water Dragon Sect, Kong Xifeng had already sensed it, yet she hadn’t expected that Hua Yaoyue would come here.

So Kong Xifeng first instructed Wen Linger, then took a step out, arriving at the shore.

Perhaps there’d been quite a few guests recently, so Kong Xifeng had placed a pavilion on the shore.

When she arrived, Hua Yaoyue was already waiting quietly with her hands behind her back.
