Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 731: Chapter 312: Finally Meeting Second Sister

Looking at the current appearance of the Water Dragon Sect, one can no longer see the scenes of the past.

All the original buildings of the Water Dragon Sect have been completely burned down.

Including Water Dragon Island, those islands abundant in Spiritual Qi have been divided among the three Demon Dao sects, making the place seem filled with smog and miasma everywhere.

Like Chulong Island where Ji Yuan stayed before.

At this moment, a huge torch burns at the highest point of the island, and upon closer inspection, one can find that the torch is fueled by skeletons.

Clearly a tactic of the Demon Flame Palace.

All Things Island and its neighboring islands have been occupied by Bone Mountain, the bones extending to the islands’ outskirts still wriggling, extremely eerie to behold.

As for the core Water Dragon Island, it naturally has been taken over by Blood Luo Mountain.

Ji Yuan even saw many disciples from Medicine King Valley and Spirit Control Sect mingling here.

Some of them had arrogant expressions, seemingly very pleased to join the Demon Dao, but the vast majority hung their heads, looking grim.

Some disciples from the three Demon Dao sects even dared to point and order them around imperiously.

It seems that now joining the Demon Dao is nothing more than being a puppet army.

How good can life be like this?

But they brought this upon themselves; Ji Yuan could say nothing about it.

Perhaps noticing he had been observing from his flying boat for some time, a Peak Foundation Establishment Demon Cultivator flew over on a Ghost Head Saber and quietly asked, “Fellow cultivator…”

Before he could finish, Ji Yuan glared at him fiercely.

“To hell with you, scram!”

“Hey, I say, you damned…”

The Demon Cultivator rolled up his sleeves.

Ji Yuan retracted his flying boat with his Heart Thought, yet did not fall but remained floating in mid-air.

Seeing this, the Demon Cultivator hurriedly clasped his hands in a respectful salute.

“Then indeed it is to hell with me, the junior will take his leave.”

With that, he flew away without looking back.

Watching such a perceptive Demonic Cultivator, Ji Yuan was left helpless.

The most important factor, of course, was the Spirit Robe he wore, with Bone Mountain’s symbol on it; otherwise, Ji Yuan would have surely taught him a lesson.

But now…

“Having seen the sect, it is time to search for the whereabouts of my second sister.”

A thought flashed through his mind, Ji Yuan summoned the flying boat again, turning toward the southeast.

“…”

Xi Kingdom.

Qingqiu City.

Inside a delicate courtyard by the river, behind a windowsill blooming with colorful flowers, sat a young woman with charming fox-like eyes in a green long dress, holding an exquisite painting book.

“Unfeeling Love Between Immortal and Mortal”

Though she held it, she hadn’t turned a page in quite some time.

The young maiden previously watering the flowers couldn’t help but put down her watering can, wash her hands in the nearby jade basin, dry them with a handkerchief, then gently pinch the shoulders of the fox-eyed woman from behind.

Du Wanyi seemed to awaken suddenly, reaching to hold the maiden’s small hand, then slowly came to her senses.

“Xiao He, I’m daydreaming again.”

“Yes, miss.”

Xiao He spoke softly while kneading her shoulder, “Miss often likes to daydream, especially after returning from the last outing.”

“Really?”

Du Wanyi seemed dazed, unable to fully realize.

“Yes.”

Xiao He nodded vigorously, then seemed to recall something and whispered, “Miss, could you tell me more about the stories of you immortals again? Xiao He really wants to hear them.”

Du Wanyi was lost for a moment.

“There’s nothing worth telling, immortals are actually just mortals as well, no different from mortal beings, with the same fights and romance.”

Du Wanyi murmured, as if speaking to Xiao He but more like talking to herself.

Xiao He nodded in confusion, only remembering the last sentence, “Then miss, do you have love and hatred? Do you also have an immortal you like? Is that why you’re thinking of him?”

Du Wanyi blushed instinctively, but her face turned pale in an instant, her eyes waning into fatigue.

Xiao He was startled, quickly covering her mouth with her hand.

“Miss, did Xiao He say something wrong? Xiao He deserves a slap.”

She raised her right hand right after speaking, about to hit her face, but Du Wanyi raised her hand, preventing her attempt.

“It’s not your fault.”

“I’ve told you many times, here we don’t have so many rules like the tooth house, you need to adopt a new approach gradually.”

Xiao He trembled in fright but remembered to nod strongly.

“Yes, miss.”

“Alright, you may go now.”

Du Wanyi waved her hand, and Xiao He, whose legs had gone weak from fear, finally managed to leave, holding onto the door frame.

After seeing her leave, Du Wanyi looked at the novel on the table, naturally recalling that man’s appearance in her mind again.

He always seemed polite, even to her, often standing at the back of the crowd, always the first to run whenever something happened.

’So now, with the war between the good and evil so intense, with the six sects of Shang Dong gone, he’s surely the fastest runner and the furthest one.’

’Furthermore, having been taken under Master Wang You’s tutelage, with the opportunity to leave the Cangluo Continent, it’s an opportunity he would never miss.’

Desolate Ancient Continent…

This was a place Du Wanyi found out about not long ago, realizing there is a vast world beyond the Cangluo Continent.

But all of these have nothing to do with her now.

Now, she just wants to stay in this little Qingqiu City, in this small courtyard.
