Chapter 678 Saving Senior Sister (1)
So the three of them got lost in the Gaosheng Kingdom?
Cheng Hongling steadied herself and asked.
Yes, but we don’t know the specific location of the disappearance.
Xu Mei confirmed.
What is going on? Did they encounter some powerful evil spirits?
Cheng Hongling paced back and forth.
Don’t worry, they have the Heavenly Punishment Realm Body Protection Talismans I sent, ordinary evil spirits can’t threaten their safety at all. Perhaps there’s a problem with the Thousand Li Sound Transmission Device.
Qi Huang comforted them, although she knew the possibility was very small herself.
It’s better to be safe than sorry, we have to go find them immediately.
Cheng Hongling hurried out.
Wait! Rushing around blindly like this is a complete waste of time. Let’s bring Mu Ruoyi along, she’s an expert at finding people.
Qi Huang suggested.
Cheng Hongling hesitated for a moment but agreed, as the situation was urgent and it wasn’t the time for jealousy.
Then the main body and clone found Mu Ruoyi and took her towards the Gaosheng Kingdom.
Qi Huang contacted Ruan Lingyu while on the way, and after a while, they met in Fenggu Prefecture, east of the Gaosheng Kingdom.
What is going on?
As soon as they met, Qi Huang anxiously asked.
Ruan Lingyu choked up and explained the whole story, then added, “After they entered the Gaosheng Kingdom, they were in contact with us. Later, we were busy inquiring about clues for the Golden Life Flower Seed, so we didn’t contact them for a whole day. To our surprise, when we tried to contact them again, no one responded.”
What did you say in your last contact?
Mu Ruoyi asked very rationally.
The cultivator who obtained the Golden Life Flower Seed last year had actually used it, and even complained a few words about it.
Ruan Lingyu recalled.
“If you were them, what would you do next?”
Mu Ruoyi asked Ruan Lingyu and Shen Yuan.
“Either continue to inquire about the cultivator who obtained the Golden Life Flower Seed the year before last, or ask in other countries.”
Ruan Lingyu answered without thinking.
“If you had to choose one?”
Mu Ruoyi pressed.
“Perhaps the first option has a higher probability. After confirming that the Golden Life Flower Seed cannot be obtained in the Gaosheng Kingdom, we will ask in other countries. After all, no one wants to travel long distances, especially in this era of widespread evil spirits.”
Ruan Lingyu replied after some thought.
“Yes, I think so too.”
Qi Huang and Cheng Hongling echoed their agreement.
“In that case, let’s start by investigating the cultivator who obtained the Golden Life Flower Seed the year before last and see if the three of them went to find that person.”
Mu Ruoyi suggested, and the other women all agreed.
Qi Huang and Cheng Hongling both wore veils, as their appearance could easily cause trouble.
The group found a town and inquired. They discovered that the cultivator who obtained the Golden Life Flower Seed at the Evergreen Convention the year before last in the Gaosheng Kingdom was from the Nanshan Sect in Fenggu Prefecture.
The group rushed to the Nanshan Sect without delay. They didn’t barge in immediately but planned to gather information first.
Because there was a lot of vegetation near the entrance of the Nanshan Sect, and the investigation date was only a few days ago, it was very easy for her to find out if those three female disciples from the HongHua Sect had been there.
“Do you need blood?”
Cheng Hongling asked without hesitation.
“If the situation from a few days ago requires blood, then my role as Saintess would be a disgrace.”
Mu Ruoyi smiled confidently, then walked towards a large tree and began injecting special wood-attribute True Qi with her jade-like hand.
The tree, which was on the verge of dying, gradually became vigorous, and a phantom gradually appeared on it.
Mu Ruoyi then released her Soul Bond and began to examine the tree’s memories.
The Nanshan Sect disciples passing by soon noticed the strange behavior of the women, but since souls could only be seen by cultivators at or above the Guiyi Realm, they didn’t notice anything unusual.
After communing with the spirit for a moment, Mu Ruoyi withdrew her hand and excitedly told her companions, “The three of them did come to this Nanshan Sect, and they even entered it.”
“Really? That’s great.”
Ruan Lingyu became so excited that she danced with joy.
“Why would the Nanshan Sect allow them to enter?”
Qi Huang found it somewhat unbelievable.
“You underestimate your current influence. You are now known as the number one genius in the West Continent, and also the first person to survive the suppression of the Immortal Tablet. As the saying goes, when one person attains the Tao, even their chickens and dogs ascend to heaven. As long as they show their Waist Token, such sects will naturally give them some face.”
Mu Ruoyi explained.
“I see.”
Qi Huang suddenly realized.
“Did they come out in the end?”
Cheng Hongling beside her asked.
“They came out shortly after entering, so it seems they didn’t disappear in the Nanshan Sect.”
Mu Ruoyi further explained the subsequent situation.
“Do we still need to go in?”
Ruan Lingyu anxiously sought everyone’s opinion.
“Of course we need to go in, we
need to know what they talked about.
This might help us find the subsequent whereabouts of your three
junior sisters.”
Mu Ruoyi made a decision immediately,
and the women agreed.
So they
walked towards the entrance of the Nanshan Sect.
“This is an important immortal sect, unauthorized personnel are not allowed to enter!”
The male disciple guarding the gate was first stunned by the sight of the little fairies,
then pretended to be righteous and said.
“Dear senior brothers, we would like to visit your senior brother Gao Yingjie of the Nanshan Sect.”
Eldest Senior Ruan Lingyu pleaded politely.
“Senior Brother Gao Yingjie is our Nanshan Sect’s former number one Immortal Seed,
not everyone can meet him!”
“Yes, even our sect disciples need to make appointments to see him, let alone outsiders.”
“If you want to see him, you can join the Nanshan Sect? Perhaps then there will be a chance.”
…………
The male disciples said in a condescending tone, their intentions clear.
“If you want me to join, who in your Nanshan Sect can take me as a disciple?”
Cheng Hongling impatiently revealed her Immortal Elder Waist Token.
…………
“Cheng Hongling of the HongHua Sect? Doesn’t this name sound familiar?”
“Are you just out of prison?
Don’t you know Cheng Hongling of the Xihui Dynasty? The current number one genius in the West Continent,
who reached the Shentong Realm before the age of twenty, and is also the only one who escaped the suppression of the Immortal Tablet.”
“Yes, her cultivation level is higher than our Grand Elder. Who is qualified to take her?”
…………
The male disciples exclaimed in shock.
“Well? Am I qualified to see your number one Immortal Seed now?”
Cheng Hongling asked impatiently.
“Please wait a moment,
I will report to the Sect Leader immediately!”
A male disciple said obsequiously, then took out the Thousand Li Sound Transmission Device to inform the Sect Leader.
Not long after, the high-level figures of the Nanshan Sect
came out to greet them with a fanfare, as if they were welcoming an imperial envoy in the mortal world.
“I want to see Gao Yingjie!”
Cheng Hongling directly stated her request before the other party could fawn over her.
The high-level figures of the Nanshan Sect were rebuffed, so they could only lead Qi Huang and the others to see Gao Yingjie.
Gao Yingjie was the former number one Immortal Seed of the Nanshan Sect, with a cultivation level of Huashen Realm Layer 2. He had entered the top twenty of the Gaosheng Kingdom Immortal Seed Ranking the year before last and happened to obtain a Golden Life Flower Seed. This year, because he exceeded thirty years old, he lost the qualification to participate in the Evergreen Convention and became the “former number one Immortal Seed.”
Reaching Huashen Realm Layer 2 at the age of thirty was considered a top genius in the Gaosheng Kingdom, so when he heard the Sect Leader say someone was looking for him, he could only coldly reply: “No time!”
“Cheng Hongling of the HongHua Sect is looking for you. It’s up to you whether you have time.”
The Sect Leader said helplessly.
Qi Huang was about to get angry when the door suddenly opened with a bang, and a grown young man walked out nervously.
“Fairy Hongling is looking for me?”
The young man asked with a lowered gaze, completely different from his arrogant tone before.
“Yes, I would like to ask you about something.”
Cheng Hongling replied expressionlessly.
“Please come in!”
Gao Yingjie politely invited them, as the cultivation world respected strength.
Qi Huang and the others walked in and directly stated their purpose.
Gao Yingjie recalled for a moment and said, “Yes, about five days ago! Three female disciples from the HongHua Sect came to find me, intending to buy Golden Ming Flower seeds.”
“And then?”
Shen Yuan anxiously pressed.
