Chapter 1288: The Jade簡 is intercepted
the conditions Lianyi proposed, finally coaxing her back to happiness. Only then did he leave Duang's mansion with his father.Zhang Xuetao, who got in the car, was unusually silent. Zhang Fenglin, sit...One of the ripples' split-forms did not join in the commotion. Master Fu Feng wanted to fight for a spot for her, but she persuaded him against it.
"Bai, many thanks for the sect master's kindness. This is a rare opportunity, so I'll let other fellow disciples go this time!"
"I've already reached the middle stage of Nascent Soul. I'm not in a hurry to break through to the late stage right now. Besides, I still need to teach my disciples. The priority is stability. When both of them can stand on their own, it doesn't matter if I go out to hone myself later."
"Alright, as long as you're willing to try. This secret realm is opening for the first time, so there are bound to be many dangers inside. We don't even know what's in there yet. It's understandable if you don't want to take the risk."
Fu Feng and Lian Yi went through this matter, after which Lian Yi's avatar continued to teach disciples and did not accompany the team to the demon tribe's territory.
And the ripples, however, had grasped the specific time when the sect disciples assembled and arrived. Then, leading people, they incorporated these individuals into the demon clan's territory and brought all the cultivators preparing to enter the secret realm to the vicinity of the soon-to-open secret realm, arranging them on pre-planned grounds.
Then the ripples handed several jade slips to the leaders of the four major sects and the scattered cultivators alliance, smiling as he explained:
"Fellows, the Jade Tablet contains what you wish to know. If anything is unclear, please ask us at any time. We hope you will gain something from this experience."
The leader of the Yuntian Sect was a cultivator at the Refining Void stage. He clearly sensed that the delicate young girl speaking to them had a cultivation level higher than his, so he politely bowed and asked:
"Fellow cultivator, I wonder if the demon race will enter the secret realm with us"
"It all depends on them. If they are willing to go in, they can. We don't force anyone."
Liàn Yī said casually, "The demon clan is known for their carefree attitude."
Is there a quantity limit
Another leader immediately asked, fearing that too many demon clan members would enter and snatch the opportunities of the human cultivators.
"Yes, no more than one hundred. First come, first served. Those who arrive late won't be allowed in."
Ripples smiled and said.
This matter was discussed with the elders of the demon clan before the ripples appeared. After all, this secret realm is on their demon clan's territory, and it's the first time it has been opened this time. It's fraught with danger, and we don't know what exactly is inside.
The demon clan would at most send a member of their own to scout around inside and see what good things were there. When the secret realm opened next time, they would arrange for more juniors to go in. This time, there was no need to compete with cultivators over who was better.
Upon hearing the ripples' words, the five leaders were delighted. However, they were also wary of the demon clan's tricks. They exchanged glances and led their respective groups away to give instructions.
After making the arrangements, Lian Ri turned and returned to a mobile cave dwelling, her temporary residence. Its purpose was to maintain control of the overall situation. If cultivators encountered any issues, they could find her. And if anyone dared to cause trouble, she would be able to suppress them.
Doudou was still pinned in her ripple hairstyle as a hairpin. Mainly because after she advanced to the Eight-Tailed Fox, she told everyone that she had consumed the spiritual flower, so Doudou shouldn't appear in front of other great demons in human form for the time being.
"Master, does Master need DuoDuo to keep an eye on Lian XiYe"
DDD was bored, so she started to give herself some tasks.
"Contact your plant friends and keep an eye on them throughout the night. See if they make contact with anyone from Yuntianzong. If they do, please let me know."
Ripples leaned against the table casually, playing chess with herself while also chatting with DuoDuo.
"Yes, master!"
Dodo received her mission and immediately slipped out of the cave dwelling.
The secret realm won't fully open until tomorrow, so those disciples from the sects still have a day to rest. The market that Ripple set up is also already open for these sect disciples.
At first, only a few disciples went out to stroll and barter. Once they had exchanged for good items, they began sending transmission talismans to their fellow sect members. Word spread quickly, ten by ten, until hundreds were informed. In less than an hour, the trading market was bustling with activity.
Several human leaders naturally knew about the existence of the market. It was mentioned in the jade slips. They didn't expect the demon race to be so thoughtful and even specially prepared a place for them to exchange resources.
Embracing a "go with the flow" attitude, they also shrugged and strolled around, trading several idle elixir bottles for what they needed and happily returned to their temporary dwelling.
"Master, even tonight there's movement."
"Keep an eye on him."
"Yes!"
Dodo separated one of her leaves from the main body and stuck it directly to Lian Xiye's shoe bottom, then watched his every move.
Lien Xi knew this time the Yun Tian Zong people would come, and also prepared to seize this opportunity to send the news on hand back to the sect. Besides the latest news about the demon clan recently, there was also a map of the demon world, the general distribution of each demon clan.
He believed these would certainly be useful in the battle against the demon race, and he even marked the locations of some high-grade heaven and earth treasures. He believed that high-level powerful beings would be interested.
"Master, he made up an excuse to go to the market and is coming this way."
Duo Duo immediately transmitted her voice.
"Is anyone from the wolf tribe watching him"
"Yes."
"Don't interfere, just see what he wants to do."
"Yes!"
After arriving at the market in the evening, he deliberately started a conflict with a disciple of Yuntian Sect. The two had known each other since they were in the sect. The disciple of Yuntian Sect sarcastically mocked him for betraying the sect. Their argument attracted many onlookers.
Without even stepping out of her cave, Lian Yi merely extended her divine sense and watched the commotion led by Lian Xi Ye. Then she saw Lian Xi Ye, taking advantage of the shoving match, slip a jade slip into the sleeve of another Yun Tian Zong disciple who was watching the spectacle, employing a tactic of diverting attention.
Before long, the demon patrol responsible for maintaining order in the market arrived. Wolfu, who was tasked with keeping an eye on things, brushed past the Yuntian Sect disciple and exchanged jade slips with him. After completing this, he glanced in the direction of Lianyi before leaving the market.
After being pulled away by patrolling members of his own kind that night, he grumbled and returned to the werewolf territory. When the next day came and the secret realm opened, he didn't show up either.
Dodo came back in the evening, bringing the latest news from Lian Yexi.
"Master, Lian Xiye had it rough this time. The jade slip he used to transmit messages was seized by the wolf clan. To prevent him from causing trouble during the secret realm's opening, the wolf clan elder crushed his demon pill and imprisoned him in the dungeon. He's unlikely to ever leave there in his lifetime."
"That's great! This way, all his Qi should be worn away, congratulations!"
The ripples finally showed a smile.
"Master, does Doudou still need to go for a supplementary attack"
Duo Duo immediately asked, "The main reason is that it's too difficult to kill the child of luck recognized by Heaven."
"No, I'll leave it to the wolf clan. They will give me an explanation."
Ripple said calmly.
It is estimated that the Wolf Clan saw the jade slip and wanted to kill the other party. However, in order to avoid disturbances during the secret realm's opening, they imprisoned the other party instead.
As expected, the next day after sending all humans and demon cultivators into the secret realm, Lang Kui came to look for Lian Yi.
"Elder Bai, Wolf Night still chose to betray the Wolf Clan. His jade slip transmitting the message was intercepted by us."
"Very well, if not for Lang Fu's intervention, I would have retrieved the jade slip myself. It seems you have never relaxed your surveillance on Lang Ye."
Of course, once the secret realm closed, the clan would have dealt with Lang Ye. Such a threat couldn't be allowed to continue. Before, they had kept him because of his precious bloodline, but who knew he would be so ungrateful.
"This is his choice. Who told him to grow up among humans"ile playing on her lips, Ripples spoke."Shall we challenge you again another day"Rossi immediately said."As long as I have time."Ripples smiled and said.Back in her room, the sky was nearly light. She...
