235: Ready to go back
Last night, it was the first time Jiang Jiusheng experienced such a feeling.
It was as if she was about to Ascend, making her feel refreshed and delighted.
Although the path of cultivation brought some hardships and pain, what was that compared to the rewards?
"Little Junior Brother~"
Jiang Jiusheng's tone carried a hint of affection.
"What's wrong, Senior Sister?"
Su Changqing chuckled as he rubbed Jiang Jiusheng's face; her fair and smooth complexion was naturally perfect, and her exquisite figure was rarely matched by anyone on the entire Heavenly Martial Continent.
"Let's... stay two more days."
It was as if she had used all her strength for Jiang Jiusheng to say such words.
After all... these words were too embarrassing.
It was not easy for a girl to say such things.
Su Changqing chuckled, leaning down for a fleeting kiss:
"Alright!"
He naturally wouldn't refuse his Senior Sister's warm invitation.
It was what he desired, but he dared not ask for it.
Upon receiving Su Changqing's affirmative answer, Jiang Jiusheng's pretty face turned red again; she buried her head in Su Changqing's embrace, instantly feeling an endless sense of security.
The scene of Su Changqing standing in front of her, ready to face the Saint Realm Experts of all races on the Heavenly Martial Continent, reappeared in her mind, and her body subconsciously trembled, gripping Su Changqing's hand even tighter.
"Senior Sister?"
"Mm~"
.......
Time flew by.
The two of them stayed in this Immortal Cave for a full two days.
During their leisure time, Su Changqing would also roast Dragon meat, and the two would sit together, feasting.
Dragon meat inherently carried some indescribable effects; it could not only promote blood circulation, strengthen the physique, but also… foster emotions.
As for Jiang Jiusheng's injuries, they had completely healed, leaving no hidden dangers.
In fact, her cultivation now showed signs of loosening.
"Senior Sister, it's time for us to go back."
The two walked out of the Immortal Cave, Su Changqing embracing Jiang Jiusheng, saying with a chuckle.
Jiang Jiusheng nodded, looking back at the Immortal Cave behind her, feeling a sense of reluctance.
This place held many memories for her and Su Changqing, and now they had to leave.
Su Changqing chuckled as he rubbed her head, then said:
"Don't worry, Senior Sister, there's a Ninth-Grade Formation I set up here; no one will be able to enter. If you want to come back in the future, I can accompany you back to stay for a short period anytime."
Hearing Su Changqing's affirmative reply, the gloom on Jiang Jiusheng's face instantly vanished, and she nodded heavily:
"Okay!"
The two smiled at each other, then flew through the air towards the Tai Xuan Sect.
Because the news of Su Changqing's death had spread throughout the Heavenly Martial Continent, almost all Martial Artists of all races believed without exception that he had died. To avoid trouble, he directly put on the Thousand Illusions Mask and changed his appearance.
After all, if all races knew he wasn't dead, they would definitely surround and kill him again.
If Su Changqing were alone, he naturally wouldn't fear; if he couldn't win, he would just run.
But he was afraid that the other party would besiege the Tai Xuan Sect.
Therefore, he would lie low for a while first.
He would make all races pay the price after he possessed the strength to kill an Emperor Realm Expert.
However, as the two were traveling towards the Tai Xuan Sect, Su Changqing increasingly felt that something was wrong, because on the way, he heard rumors that there was a woman from the Human Race who had set out from the Tai Xuan Sect, slaughtered countless Martial Artists of all races, and was still heading north.
"Little Junior Brother, the person they're talking about couldn't be Revered Master, could it?"
Jiang Jiusheng suspected it might be Gu Xiran.
Su Changqing, however, had no doubts; he was very certain.
If something happened to him, Revered Master would absolutely do such a thing.
"In four days, she annihilated eighteen races, killing one Saint Realm Late Stage Martial Artist, fourteen Saint Realm Middle Stage Martial Artists, and forty-two Saint Realm Early Stage Experts. She is still heading north and is probably about to reach the Ghost Race now."
Su Changqing murmured, and a huge wave also surged in his heart.
Revered Master had broken through to the Saint Realm Late Stage, and for his sake, she was even on the verge of madness.
"Senior Sister, Revered Master is probably about to reach the Ghost Race now. The Ghost Race has many Experts, and Revered Master alone is not their match. You go back to the Sect first, and I'll go bring Revered Master back."
Su Changqing said decisively.
"I'll go with you!"
Jiang Jiusheng was afraid Su Changqing would encounter some danger and didn't want him to go alone.
"No, you go back to the Sect first and report the situation to the Sect Master to stabilize the Sect. Remember, the news that I'm still alive should not be spread."
Although Jiang Jiusheng was also in the Saint Realm, she was only in the Early Stage for now and couldn't be of much help. Therefore, he asked her to go back and inform them first, lest he feared the entire Tai Xuan Sect would also go crazy and truly declare war on all races.
"Alright, then you must be careful."
Jiang Jiusheng said with loving eyes.
"Don't worry!"
Su Changqing smiled slightly, without any hesitation, his figure flashed, and he directly headed north.
His speed was extremely fast; he directly used Space Teleportation to travel, achieving a speed that almost surpassed a Saint Realm Late Stage Martial Artist.
He was afraid, afraid that Revered Master would encounter some danger, which was why he was rushing so desperately.
.........
Ghost Race!
Before Gu Xiran was the Ghost Race's main base, Tiangui City.
In this city, there were many Ghost Race Experts, with five Ghost Kings in the Saint Realm Late Stage, and countless hidden cards.
Just as her figure moved, preparing to make a move, an old figure blocked her path.
"Xici, go back."
Ancestor Xuan sighed, helplessly.
These past few days, he had been following behind Gu Xiran, watching her kill her way through.
The three-foot long sword in her hand was stained with the blood of countless foreign races.
After four consecutive days of battle, her body was filled with a massive Killing Intent, almost solidifying. In these past few days, she had killed too many Martial Artists, most of the time slaughtering entire cities.
"No!"
"I haven't finished killing."
Gu Xiran's calm voice carried no warmth whatsoever.
Not having finished killing was her reason.
Ancestor Xuan was helpless:
"There are five Saint Realm Late Stage Martial Artists in Tiangui City, and also a Saint Realm Peak fellow. You alone are not their match, and even if the two of us combine, it won't be enough."
As the Ghost Race's main base, Tiangui City's strength naturally went without saying; there were over a hundred Saint Realm level existences, truly terrifying.
However, Gu Xiran's mind was made up, and it was absolutely impossible for her to give up so easily.
Ancestor Xuan naturally knew this, but he absolutely could not let Gu Xiran go to her death.
"Darkness Eye!"
Ancestor Xuan directly used Darkness Eye, intending to tie Gu Xiran up and bring her back.
However, Gu Xiran snorted lightly, and just as she dodged, a strange figure suddenly appeared beside her.
"Heh heh, it's a Human Race beauty, come serve this Great Master."
That figure had six wings on its back, a Yao Race appearance, looking extremely ugly.
Ancestor Xuan was greatly alarmed, preparing to attack the other party.
However, Gu Xiran smiled, she threw away the long sword in her hand, then directly ran towards that figure and pulled him into her embrace.
