Chapter 129 She has a fiancé?
All that talk of going it alone is a lie!
Hao Tianping said firmly, "Junior Sister Lou, you don't need to say anything. My fate is in my own hands, not in the heavens. When my destined partner comes along, he will find me. Predicting it in advance is not a good thing."
Lou Yuqing: "..."
Indeed, ignorance is a kind of happiness, even if it feels a bit like burying one's head in the sand.
However, some things are predetermined, for example, you can never learn the four arts of immortal cultivation.
Hao Tianping: "..." Impossible!
The four arts of cultivation—alchemy, artifact crafting, talismanic arts, and array formations—are the most profitable professions among all the skills in the cultivation world.
Hao Tianping is not greedy; he only needs to learn one skill.
However, when he studied weapon crafting, he blew up the weapon crafting room; when he studied alchemy, he blew up the alchemy room; when he studied talisman drawing, he blew up the confinement room, and was blacklisted by the sect.
Hao Tianping had originally given up.
But after leaving the confinement room, he suddenly realized that perhaps his talent lay in formations.
So he went and bought materials for the Spirit Gathering Array. This array is a basic array that can gather spiritual energy and help cultivators increase their cultivation speed.
If he hadn't heard halfway through that someone in the square was calculating marriage prospects, he probably would have already drawn up a magic array in his cave.
Upon hearing Lou Yuqing's thoughts, Hao Tianping showed resentment and immediately wanted to clear his name.
Just then, a streak of light flew in from the horizon and stopped in front of Lou Yuqing.
A teleportation talisman?
Lou Yuqing was stunned for a moment, then activated the talisman. The voice of the mountain-guarding disciple came from within: "Senior Sister Lou, someone is looking for you. He claims to be your...fiancé."
Everyone: !
Si Nidie: !
Lou Yuqing, as the person directly involved, was utterly shocked: "My fiancé?"
That's ridiculous, does she have one?
No, it's not necessarily true.
After transmigrating to this world, she browsed through the original owner's memories, but unfortunately the images were blurry, as if covered by a veil, and she couldn't see them clearly no matter how hard she looked.
In the end, all she knew was that the original owner's parents were dead.
As for her fiancé...
The fact that he was able to find the Wendao Sect shows that he has cultivation. However, the original owner was a mortal. Under what circumstances would a mortal enter into a marriage contract with a cultivator?
Of course, the original owner did have spiritual roots, but because the Immaculate Body was too powerful, the lightning spiritual root was concealed and became a hidden lightning spiritual root, which was difficult to detect by ordinary means.
If she hadn't been brought to the Wendao Sect by Sect Leader Qingxuzi, she probably wouldn't have been able to embark on the path of cultivation.
Lou Yuqing's mind raced.
The engagement must be called off!
She wasn't the original owner of this body, so there was no need for her to fulfill the marriage contract. Besides, when the original owner was still alive, this fiancé never came out to help her.
Otherwise, the original owner might not have been scared to death by that striped tiger, and she might not have transmigrated into the original owner's body.
At this moment, Lou Yuqing and Gao Xuexi felt the same way. Arranged marriages were better off gone; she didn't want to ruin her life for nothing.
The electric arc crackled, and her figure vanished.
Seeing that she was using the lightning escape technique, Si Nidie quickly said to the disciples, "Everyone, you don't need to wait. Junior Sister will calculate your marriage another day and then let you know."
After saying that, he immediately rushed towards the mountain gate.
Hao Tianping exclaimed, "Wait for me!"
The disciples immediately began to discuss it.
"Senior Sister Lou predicted our marriage prospects, but unexpectedly, her own marriage came first."
"Didn't you see Senior Sister Lou's expression? She's clearly not familiar with that fiancé."
"I really want to see their love and hate stories; usually we're the ones who get caught up in the drama."
"Are you going or not? If not, I'm going first!"
"Did I say I wasn't going? Well, here I am."
A large group of people flew towards the mountain gate, their colorful magical artifacts attracting even more disciples.
High in the sky, Sect Leader Qingxuzi paused in stroking his beard, and said thoughtfully, "Yuqing's fiancé? I've never heard of him."
After he brought Lou Yuqing back to Wendao Sect, he went to the Lou family home according to the address she provided and paid respects to the Lou family's ancestors, who were his old friends.
The Lou family had only one son per generation and was not good at managing their finances. After several generations of living off their wealth, by the time it came to Yuqing's generation, all that remained of their ancestral property was a mansion.
The old house was located in the center of the city and was quite valuable. Her parents wanted to sell it and move elsewhere, but a fire broke out at night and burned the house to the ground.
The two perished in the fire, while she miraculously escaped. When she awoke, her memory was somewhat hazy.
When Qingxuzi arrived at this point, he sighed. It was no wonder that Yuqing was subconsciously unwilling to recall such a painful experience.
He knew almost everything about her, but whether she had a fiancé was another matter entirely.
Thinking of this, Qingxuzi waved his sleeve, intending to call his two junior brothers to go and observe the scene. Suddenly, the communication array plate lit up, and the figure of Zixiao Immortal Venerable appeared.
Standard communication arrays do not have this function, but high-end communication arrays are capable of doing so.
Qingxuzi bowed and said, "Uncle-Master."
Zixiao Immortal Venerable nodded: "I have already killed the Nascent Soul cultivators of the Heavenly Demon Sect and the Profound Yin Sect."
Kui Tu and Zeng Xuangan were both surprised and delighted; this was truly wonderful news.
Cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage and above can abandon their physical bodies and escape through Nascent Soul teleportation, making them very difficult to kill by those of the same level.
Qingxuzi was excited. His martial uncle's strength was indeed extraordinary; his first move was a fatal blow.
Those two demonic sects deserved their fate, for secretly stirring up trouble in their territory.
Immortal Venerable Zixiao asked, "How is the sect?"
His trip to the Black Barbarian Domain was originally intended to find the person mentioned by the Void Fortune Beast, but unfortunately he only had a few scattered clues and ultimately returned empty-handed.
The Void Fortune Beast possesses auspicious fortune and is a spiritual beast born from heaven and earth. Even it dares not reveal too much information, so that person's background is definitely not simple.
However, being able to eliminate the Nascent Soul cultivators of the two major demonic sects makes this trip worthwhile.
Normally, it's not that easy to deal with.
However, for some unknown reason, the Heavenly Demon Sect and the Profound Yin Sect started fighting each other, resulting in heavy losses for both sides. After the Nascent Soul stage cultivators behind the two sects clashed, both sides suffered heavy losses.
After battling them, Immortal Venerable Zixiao successfully killed them. His lightning magic was effective against demonic cultivators; otherwise, they might have escaped.
At the same time, his cultivation showed signs of a breakthrough, and after returning, he could break through the bottleneck of the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm and advance to a higher realm.
In other words, it is a true ascension, going from the human realm to a higher plane.
Since the Purple Cloud Immortal Venerable had not yet trained his junior disciples and the Wendao Sect was going through a turbulent period, it was impossible for him to ascend now. Therefore, he suppressed his cultivation again.
Qingxuzi replied, "The sect is operating smoothly."
He remembered something and said, "Oh right, Yuqing helped bring together Junior Sister Shi and Third Junior Brother, and Wushuang also reunited with Junior Sister Hongyan."
Immortal Venerable Zixiao said in surprise, "This is a good thing."
Regarding the question of whether Wushuang perished or disappeared, he once sought divination from the Taoist Master Tianji.
Unfortunately, the other party did not agree, seemingly having some reservations. Instead, they gave him a divination, saying that he would receive a satisfactory disciple on a certain day.
In retrospect, the Taoist Master Tianji's predictions were indeed accurate.
At this moment, Qingxuzi suddenly asked hopefully, "Uncle-Master, do you have any news about the person who killed Wenniang?"
He sent people to search for traces of the Three Yin Demon and the Heavenly Puppet True Man's activities before their deaths, but they found nothing, as if they had been completely erased.
Despite the passage of time since her daughter was rescued, the person behind the scenes has still not been able to be brought to justice.
This made him somewhat hesitant to appear before Li'er, fearing she would ask him if he had avenged Wen Niang.
Immortal Venerable Zixiao sighed, "We have no clue yet."
Disappointment showed on Qingxuzi's face, but he forced himself to cheer up and gritted his teeth, saying, "It's alright, one day I will find that person."
The ability to place self-destruct restrictions within the bodies of Sanyin and Tiankui must indicate that one is a Nascent Soul cultivator, and the Nascent Soul cultivators openly known in the Black Barbarian Domain come from those five demonic sects.
Two out of five are removed, leaving three.
If possible, Qingxuzi really wanted to find Lou Yuqing and ask her about the truth, but he was suppressed by that mysterious force and couldn't speak.
Immortal Venerable Zixiao recalled the leader of the Black Demon Sect. After killing the Grand Elder who was in the Nascent Soul stage, he sensed the aura of his little disciple on this person.
Unbeknownst to the other party, the little apprentice possessed a protective barrier, allowing him to sense anyone who dared to harm her, provided they were within a certain range.
Therefore, he eliminated the other party in the process before returning to his sect to avoid being besieged by the demonic sect.
Immortal Venerable Zixiao's heart stirred: "How is Yuqing?"
After composing himself, Qingxuzi paused for a moment upon hearing this, and said, "Her fiancé has come to the sect, but I don't know the specifics yet."
Purple Cloud Immortal Venerable: ?
Without further hesitation, he immediately used the Thunder Escape Technique to rush towards the Wendao Sect. If it weren't for the fact that the distance was too far to control his avatar, he would have already gone to find out the truth while wearing Gu Bugai's body.
A moment ago, at the mountain gate.
The disciples guarding the mountain stood dutifully on both sides, their eyes scanning the surroundings with keen eyes.
Ten days ago, an undercover agent escaped, so they are on guard even more diligently.
The leading disciple suddenly shouted, "Be on guard!"
The disciples immediately released their magical artifacts, staring intently at the void ahead.
A flash of light appeared, and a tall, slender figure in cyan appeared before them. He had an elegant face, an extraordinary temperament, and gave people a friendly feeling.
The man in blue smiled gently: "Gentlemen, I am from Nangan, Wanfa City. I have come to visit my fiancée. May I ask if you may announce my arrival?"
The leading disciple looked at the token he handed over, verified it, and asked in surprise, "You really are from Wanfa City. Who is your fiancée?"
Wanfa City is located within the jurisdiction of Wendao Sect. The Nan family is the cultivation world within the city, and the token displayed by the man in blue was obtained from the city lord's mansion.
Nan Gan smiled and said, "Her surname is Lou, and her name is Yuqing."
To his surprise, they seemed incredulous upon hearing the name, their sharp eyes fixed on him as they bombarded him with questions.
"Which building, which jade, which lady?"
Do you know how old she is?
How can you prove you're her fiancé?
Nangan answered each question correctly, and finally took out a jade pendant: "This item contains the essence and blood that dripped when we made our engagement. When activated, it can make us have a telepathic connection."
The disciples guarding the mountain communicated with each other via telepathy.
“He answered all the questions correctly, and there’s even a jade pendant as proof, so it seems to be genuine.”
"Then let us inform her that if he is an imposter, Senior Sister Lou will definitely expose him."
The leading disciple sent a communication talisman into the sect.
"Are you Junior Sister Yuqing's fiancé?"
A white figure stood silently on the horizon for a long time, as if his presence had vanished. Only when he spoke did everyone realize his existence.
Nangan narrowed his eyes slightly: "Yes, may I ask what advice you may have?"
Ling Yunxiao flashed forward, appearing silently in front of him, and said with a forced smile, "Is that so?"
Disciples guarding the mountain: Oh ho.
It felt like a battlefield.
