from her.In a private room at a restaurant near the school, four tables were occupied by people. Lily dragged me to sit beside her, and our conversation kept circling back to Mu Yunliang.She kept ask..."The Temple of the Plague God" Jiang Qiyun was slightly taken aback.

"Yes, Shen Qingrui and the others saw a small demon carrying a candle from the dilapidated temple of the Plague God. It went for a walk around a nearby mountain village and returned with a burning candle." I said as I took off my Daoist robe.

Jiang Qiyun narrowed her eyes slightly: “In the past, a major plague was a disaster that led to the extinction of families and nations. So for thousands of years, people have avoided the word ‘plague’ at all costs. Ordinary people wouldn't even think about worshiping the Plague God unless there was a widespread epidemic.”

"Of course, people worship all sorts of gods. Who would worship a plague god..." I sighed.

The common people worship the gods hoping for a response and descent of the deities. They probably least want the plague god to respond.

"With the current level of medical practice in the human world, plagues aren't that terrifying anymore." Jiang Qiyun took off his outer robe and gestured for me to help him remove his belt.

The one who needs to serve still needs to serve, whose fault is it that the Heavenly Emperor's clothes are so complicated.

"I heard that the demon was like a vicious dog, with a body like an infant yet to be full moon. It had a large belly and four limbs touching the ground..." I described it in detail to Jiang Qiyun.

He held me, pressed my head against the pillow, and half-lowered himself onto his back: “From today onwards, you can’t go anywhere else but this patch of land.”

"Huh What do you mean"

Jiang Qiyun raised his eyes and looked at me intently, "Don't you feel it Demons are entering the world, a storm is brewing."

"The more this is the case, the more I should do something..."

"You don't have to do anything, just find the Imperial Spirit True Spirit Talisman for Yin Su Bai as soon as possible."

"...You're actually going to help Yin Su Bai" I was a little surprised. It doesn't seem like they know each other well at all.

"It wasn't me, it was you!" Jiang Qiyun glared at me speechless.

"Uh..."

"How things are in the world, Heaven will take responsibility, and the law of reincarnation will prevail. This has nothing to do with me. But you are still in the human world to cultivate, accumulate virtue, do good deeds, and purge evil spirits for your cultivation." Jiang Qiyun frowned slightly and said, "If what Chong Mo says is true..."

The Demon Realm has five Demon Emperors, with the Northern Emperor being the most revered. Yin Su Bai holds the highest status among them, so the Spirit Summoning True Spirit Talisman is his command item for all spirits.

But for some reason, he remains missing from the world. I fear that other Demon Emperors will become restless and ambitious.

"The South Heaven Demon Emperor spoken of in hushed tones is an unruly demon god who has repeatedly clashed with the Immortal Realm, instigating every conflict. The Sea Serpent's injuries were also inflicted by his demonic beasts. While his main body remains absent from the mortal world, his agents are likely already in motion."

I listened with great interest to what Jiang Qiyun had to say about these stories that weren't in any of the classic texts.

"If he refuses to be civilized, why would the Heavenly Emperor still give him the position of Demon Emperor" I asked curiously.

“Because he’s very strong.”

Sweat, the Demon Realm is all about strength. To be honest, if you're not strong enough, you can't control your subordinates either.

I couldn't help but get a little gossipy and ask, "Have you sparred against each other"

"Sparring Jiang Qiyun looked at me inexplicably, and replied with disdain: 'Each deity has their own duties. Do you think I'm like Ji Dou, a carefree Golden Immortal or Scattered Immortal' "

"I understand. Everyone has definitely played it."

"Aren't you asleep yet" Jiang Qiyun looked at me.

I clutched the blanket, covering half my face, and whispered, "There are too many things on my mind, I can't sleep. Will you talk to me..."

I thought he would glare at me, but instead he reached out and pulled the blanket up for me, asking in a low voice, "What is it you want to say"

"You always talk about cultivation... What if I'm just too dull-witted Am I destined to be an ordinary person my whole life What then" I tried to change the subject.

Jiang Qiyun looked at me with amusement: "How long is a lifetime"

"I'll become an old lady! Like this—" I pinched my cheeks and made a funny face.

"That's also an old woman of ethereal refinement," Jiang Qiyun said with a smile. "Haven't you seen the aura of a cultivator"

"So, are there really people who have become immortals"

"Yes, in your wild historical tales, aren't there people who lived for two or three hundred years"

I chatted with him for a while and discovered that my feet were still sticking out from under the covers, which were already cold.

"Ugh... It's getting cold."

Jiang Qi's brow furrowed slightly, and she said in a low voice: "Remember, from today onwards, you are not allowed to go north...or out of the province."

Well, if there's nothing to do, there's nothing to do. It's the end of the year anyway, and there aren't usually any big commissions. All the sects and Taoist temples are busy with their own New Year blessings and disaster-avoidance activities. Everyone is just doing their own thing.

"How long will the charms on Chongmo keep him sealed" I asked.

"The effect will gradually wear off in three or five days. He can leave or stay as he pleases, just don't go back to that place of the mirage pearl." Jiang Qiyun said lightly, closing his eyes.

According to Chongmo's speculations and Jiang Qiyun's explanation, I have a rough understanding of the current situation.

Yin Su Bai's purpose seems to be wanting to use the Yu Ling Zong Zhen Ling Fu to control the demons from entering the world, but Nan Tian Mo Di doesn't think so. He probably wants to use this to guide the demons into the world.

Chongmo may have been schemed against by the "agent" of the Southern Heaven Demon Emperor, but that pearl of mirage doesn't care.

If the immortal and demon realms had no conflict, it would be fine. But now that I'm just an ordinary person, everyone has a responsibility to protect their homeland.

Jiang Qiyun didn't take the mirage pearl too seriously; he had seen too many things happen in the world over the past millennia.

"As long as you don't bother my little wife, I wouldn't bother with all this commotion..." Jiang Qiyun pinched my nose, signaling me to shut up and sleep.

"Master Zong Dao is gone!" I was stunned when I heard the news brought by a disciple in the morning.

“Yes, Master Zong left with his sword, a whisk, and a package, saying he wouldn't disturb the head of the household’s rest and went down the mountain himself. He even left a card and a password, saying he would do his best to compensate our family for the house.” The young disciple was a little nervous, afraid I would blame them for not stopping him.

Tsk... Master Zong's righteous and vengeful nature surely means he went to investigate the area where the mirage pearl is located.

"Bring Shen Qingrui here for me," I instructed my junior disciple.

Shen Qingrui soon came with a frown and an unhappy expression.

I wasn't in the mood to waste time with her. I just said, "Master Zong left a card and password and then left."

"...Can he afford to lose He wouldn't even miss this amount of money." Shen Qingrui scoffed.

Shen Qingrui's words seemed a bit subtle.

If I had just met her, I would definitely have thought she was mocking people for being poor.

But after spending time with the Shen family, I actually started to pick up on some subtext in their words.

— She doesn’t seem to be mocking Zong Daochang for being poor, but rather for his rigid adherence to rules and regulations.

I had an idea and put the card in an envelope, handing it to him. "You go after him and return this. He's probably gone to check at Shengu Zhu."

"Such a trivial matter requires me to run errands!" Shen Qingrui was furious.

"Well, then you could handle the thing my brother-in-law sent" I patted the cardboard box.

These two things seemed like trivial matters to Shen Qingrui. For someone like her, who drove a sports car and took helicopters, they were simply not worth mentioning.

"Just give it to the Shen family disciples!" she glared at me.

"Shen Qingrui, you... are a disciple of the Shen family," I said seriously. "Now the headmaster is assigning tasks to you. Choose one yourself."

"Humph!" Shen Qingrui snatched the envelope from my hand.

>away the ragged flesh, and then stitched the skin together stitch by stitch.I twisted my head, looking at the ghost didn't feel that nauseating anymore."You're alright, you can still live so cheerfull...
