Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 498: Chapter 237: Demon Dao Invasion!

Nascent Soul Monster Situ Feng?

Heavens, looking for me, a Foundation Establishment cultivator... Ji Yuan subconsciously thought this, but Han Feiyu immediately continued:

”Before possession, he was a Nascent Soul cultivator, and now, he must recultivate, being possessed in the Qi Cultivation Stage of Feng Yichen. So, I estimate his highest cultivation could only be at the Foundation Establishment Stage, definitely not at Golden Core. I think with Brother Ji’s skills, capturing him... shouldn’t be difficult.”

”A reincarnated Nascent Soul cultivator, emerging from the Nine Nether Cave Heaven, Brother Ji, how many benefits and treasures do you think he might possess?”

”Of course, given your cautious nature, you might not do it, so you could let your master, Master Wang You, take action instead.”

”However, remember... don’t fully trust the Sect Leader.”

”That’s all I have to say. No matter whether you act or not, please keep it a secret for me.”

The voice faded, and the Sound Recording Talisman burned away.

Ji Yuan fell silent.

Beside him, Dong Qian, who had already donned the jewelry like earrings and bracelets gifted by Ji Yuan, sat obediently, not disturbing or asking about the contents of the talisman.

Dong Qian had always been so sensible, knowing when to advance and retreat.

Ji Yuan could relax his mind and ponder here... Feng Yichen had already been possessed by the Nascent Soul Monster, which somewhat surprised Ji Yuan.

But not entirely.

Because when he first heard Feng Yichen had returned from the Nine Nether Cave Heaven, Ji Yuan suspected Feng Yichen was possessed. But later, he heard he went to see the Sect Leader.

Master Xuan Shui personally vouched for him, saying he was alright.

So Ji Yuan was reassured.

Everyone knew well that once it involved the Nascent Soul Stage, Master Xuan Shui had no say, nor did even the Elder Hall have authority. The only one who could decide was the Supreme Elder.

So if the Supreme Elder said Feng Yichen was fine, then it seemed genuinely so.

But now?

Han Feiyu provided a different answer, asserting Feng Yichen has been possessed.

In hindsight, when in the Nine Nether Cave Heaven, Han Feiyu must have truly exercised a deadly hand and killed Feng Yichen, which is why he’s certain Feng Yichen has been possessed.

No, if that were the case, he couldn’t possibly know the true name of the Nascent Soul Monster who possessed Feng Yichen... knowing this... might there be a possibility.

Han Feiyu was also possessed?

Reflecting on Han Feiyu’s state after emerging from the Nine Nether Cave Heaven, he was more arrogant and domineering, albeit not overly prideful, but he did look down on some old friends.

Yet considering his original personality... it’s not much of a change.

Mostly due to successfully establishing Foundation and becoming a disciple of Golden Core, elevating his status.

This judgment is inconclusive.

Because Han Feiyu also mentioned another point; Master Xuan Shui is not trustworthy... is this out of spite for being expelled from the sect, or does it suggest Master Xuan Shui is also possessed?

The possibility of the Sect Leader being possessed, though slim, cannot be ruled out.

For a moment, Ji Yuan felt overwhelmed and confused.

Many things he couldn’t discern; he only knew one point... Han Feiyu knows a lot but also hides many things.

’He seems eager to tell me something but fears to say, who is he afraid of?’

Ji Yuan couldn’t fathom it and felt that such a heavy burden shouldn’t rest on his small Foundation Establishment shoulders, so he stood up from his seat.

”Junior brother, what’s wrong, do you need my help?”

Dong Qian looked up at him, then raised her hand slightly, as the six-tailed beast on the mountain turned into a stream of light, landing on her shoulder.

”No need, Han Feiyu’s message is significant; I need to go to Wan You Island to find master. Remember to keep this confidential.”

Involving the reincarnation of the Nascent Soul Monster, Ji Yuan naturally had to consult about it.

”Okay, be careful, junior brother.”

”Mm.”

After exchanging words, Ji Yuan called out the Wind Willow Flying Boat and left, transmitting messages while on the move.

The already formed Nascent Soul Hua Yaoyue seemed to have no other matters, so she naturally stayed in the sect.

When Ji Yuan found her, she was no longer tinkering with the wind chime, and the chime’s melodic ringing was not its innate tune, but seemed like Hua Yaoyue playing her own melody.

Ji Yuan had never heard it, so upon arrival, he attentively listened for a while.

This tune... had an uplifting melody, not akin to gentle river songs, more like the vast prairie tunes.

Hua Yaoyue likes this kind of music?

”Is there an urgent matter?”

Hua Yaoyue asked casually.

She naturally discerned that Ji Yuan had transmitted a message while on the move, indicating urgency.

”Master.”

Ji Yuan reacted, quickly approaching, then relayed Han Feiyu’s words without omission, even his suspicions were shared.

The confidentiality Han Feiyu spoke of... was entirely exposed to Ji Yuan here.

Hua Yaoyue lay quietly on the soft chair, listening without a word, her expression remained unchanged, even when Ji Yuan pointed out... there might be more than just Situ Feng as a reincarnated Nascent Soul Monster within the sect.

She stayed the same.

Once Ji Yuan finished speaking, he sat quietly by the side, waiting for Hua Yaoyue’s orders.

With master present, not to mention the mere reincarnations of the Nascent Soul, even if the heavens collapsed, master could help withstand it.

”Don’t worry about affairs within the Water Dragon Sect. With me and Kong Xifeng here, they can’t stir any storms.”
