229: Chapter 229: I Will Point My Sword at the Fallen River!

Yang Simu and his group had left the Great Wall of Sword Qi openly and aboveboard.

However, after entering the hinterlands of the Wilderness World, Yang Simu had The Executioner enter the River of Time to hide.

They flew another thousand miles before Tender Daoist laughed aloud, "We have already shaken off the Ascension Realm Great Demon that was following us."

"Very good, we will turn back now." Beneath his black bamboo hat, Yang Simu narrowed his eyes slightly.

Tender Daoist was stunned, then immediately became exasperated, "Yang Simu, what on earth are you up to, kid?"

"When we left the Great Wall of Sword Qi earlier, it was you who insisted on making such a spectacle, leading an Ascension Realm Great Demon to follow us."

"Now that we have finally shaken off that Ascension Realm Great Demon, why do you want to go back?"

Hearing this, Ruan Xiu and Li Liu also looked at Yang Simu with slight confusion.

Yang Simu grinned and said, "I had already guessed that as soon as I left the Great Wall of Sword Qi, there would definitely be an Ascension Realm Great Demon watching us."

"Since that's the case, we might as well let them see us openly."

"Right now, I'm afraid it's not just that Ascension Realm Great Demon; there are also other Wilderness Throne Great Demons whose attention is focused in the direction where we intentionally left clues."

"But that direction is the only path for us to reach the Hundred Thousand Mountains!" Tender Daoist huffed and glared.

"I did say we would return to the Hundred Thousand Mountains, but I never said when we would return," Yang Simu said with a serious expression.

Tender Daoist's face instantly turned livid.

Yang Simu coughed, "Tender Daoist, haven't you always wanted to take revenge on Yuan Shou?"

"Now is the most suitable time!"

"If you miss this opportunity, even if you have the ability to defeat Yuan Shou, it will be very difficult to have a chance to kill him."

"After all, Tuoyue Mountain will not just stand by and watch."

Tender Daoist's pupils constricted, and he asked in a deep voice, "How can you be certain that Yuan Shou isn't waiting for us on the road to the Hundred Thousand Mountains right now?"

Yang Simu said with a very firm tone, "Back then, Yuan Shou, Yang Zhi, and Liu Cha chased me all the way to the Hundred Thousand Mountains, and Old Blind Man unleashed the Golden Armored Puppet."

"Except for holding back a bit against Liu Cha, Old Blind Man did not hold back against Yuan Shou and Yang Zhi."

"Therefore, they might still be Cultivating together right now, rushing to recover from their injuries."

"Otherwise, given Yuan Shou's personality, he would have definitely been present during the recent siege of Great Sword Immortal Zuo You."

Tender Daoist pondered for a moment, and in his heart, he couldn't help but feel that the kid made some sense.

He narrowed his eyes and said, "Fine, I, Tender Daoist, will trust you, kid, this once!"

"However, Yuan Shou must be killed by my own hands. As for that woman, Yang Zhi, forget it."

"Also, had you already plotted all of this before leaving the Great Wall of Sword Qi?"

Yang Simu smiled without saying a word.

With the addition of Tender Daoist, an Ascension Realm expert, their confidence in this trip was now much greater!

Guided by Yang Simu, the group turned and flew back for several hundred miles.

Yang Simu arrived at the Danxia Dynasty once again.

Compared to the gloomy capital region he had first seen, the Danxia Dynasty was now peaceful and clear.

Especially that aura of clarity rising from the Central Peak of the Danxia Dynasty, which was an extremely rare existence in the Wilderness World.

"It seems that during the days Han Su served as the Central Peak of the Danxia Dynasty, he truly fulfilled his duties!" Yang Simu nodded inwardly.

He brought everyone and descended directly onto that mountain peak of the Central Peak.

With Tender Daoist, an Ascension Realm expert, present, all Restrictions and formations were as good as useless.

However, such a huge commotion quickly attracted the attention of the Cultivators in the mountain.

A royal consultant Cultivating in the mountain immediately flew into mid-air, instantly enraged, and was about to strike.

However, the moment this royal consultant saw Yang Simu, he was so scared that his legs went weak, and he fell to his knees in mid-air with a thud.

Just then, with a single glance from Tender Daoist, that miserable royal consultant was smashed directly into the ground!

Everyone was too lazy to even glance at him; as long as he wasn't dead, it was fine.

Soon, Yang Simu and the others landed on the mountain peak one after another.

Just then, a giant snake with a crystal-clear, glass-like body, and sprouting horn-like structures on its head, darted out from the forest.

Tender Daoist was about to strike, but Yang Simu quickly stopped him.

The next second.

This giant snake, with horns on its head and four claws growing from its abdomen, showing promise of traversing the river to become a Dragon, transformed into the appearance of a youth in yellow clothes.

Wang Qiongju's forehead was slightly raised, and he still carried a large purple gourd on his back, with the ancient seal characters "Catch and Release" inscribed on it.

This youth in yellow clothes, who was already in the Jade Purity Realm, threw himself at Yang Simu's feet and knelt with a "thud."

Wang Qiongju said with tears of gratitude, "Young Master, you have finally returned. I thought you didn't want me anymore!"

The people following behind Yang Simu were all a bit bewildered watching this scene.

However, Li Liu still had some impression of this originally yellowish-brown four-legged snake, and she narrowed her eyes slightly.

Yang Simu helplessly patted Wang Qiongju's shoulder and smiled, "This time I've returned, Young Master has a very important task to entrust to you!"

"Young Master, rest assured, I will definitely complete the task!" Wang Qiongju rubbed his eyes and said firmly.

Yang Simu smiled with satisfaction, calculated the time in his heart, and said softly, "Wang Zhu and the others should be arriving soon."

As soon as he finished speaking, a roar suddenly erupted from the branch of the Yeluo River at the foot of the Danxia Dynasty mountain.

In the blink of an eye, Wang Zhu arrived at the peak, bringing with her the Golden Carp Huang Zhong, the crouching dragon woodcarving Xiao Qing, the little loach Tan Xue, and the Fire Dragon—Golden Armored Deity Xiao Jin—that Ruan Xiu had gifted to Yang Simu.

As for the white snake Xue Lan, the Formation Master Chu Ce, and the old Flood Dragon from Flood Dragon Trench, their cultivation levels were still too low for this upcoming great battle, so they were still Cultivating in the Hundred Thousand Mountains.

As for the five True Dragon descendants Yang Simu had brought out of the Lizhu Blessed Land, representing Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth, they had to appear here.

The look in Wang Zhu's eyes as she gazed at Yang Simu seemed calm, but only she knew the shock within her heart.

"Young Master, I have finally seen you again!" the Green-Clad Girl said with a beaming smile.

"Young Master!" Huang Zhong bowed respectfully, and Tan Xue quickly followed suit.

"Master." The Golden Armored Deity looked excited.

When he saw the girl with the ponytail standing behind Yang Simu, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, then immediately lowered his head, not daring to look directly at her.

Back on the night before Yang Simu and his group left the Great Wall of Sword Qi, he had already instructed her via the master-servant contract between him and True Dragon Wang Zhu, in his heart lake, to bring the Green-Clad Girl and the other three here.

Yang Simu took a deep breath and first looked at her figure, which had already developed to a scale comparable to the woman A Liang had described when he first saw her.

He said in a deep voice, "Wang Zhu, you must find Yang Zhi's residence in the Yeluo River as soon as possible. Do not hesitate; strike directly!"

"Senior Tender Daoist, you do not need to act for now, but once you see Yuan Shou, strike immediately!"

"In this great battle against the Throne-level Great Demon, we must win quickly; the faster, the better!"

"I shall point my sword at the Yeluo River!"
