Longevity, starting from traveling and telling stories

Chapter 33 Rescue
In a hall of illusory darkness, filled with demonic energy, a man wearing a dark skull mask gazed at a faint flame and roared ferociously, "Why, why, has it become so faint? Seven lifetimes, I've been searching for it for seven whole lifetimes."

"Why? I've clearly determined where you are, but suddenly I can't find you? Are you still deliberately avoiding me, Junior Sister?"

The voice was filled with endless pain and unwillingness, echoing in the empty hall, shaking the surrounding walls slightly.

At this moment, a man dressed in black came to the hall and knelt down, saying, "Your Majesty, our operation has failed. We are now searching for the whereabouts of the Princess of Da Zhou."

Upon hearing this, the Demon Lord slowly turned around. The gaze behind the dark skull mask was like a sharp sword, causing his heart to twitch uncontrollably: "Waste."

The Demon Lord's roar was like rolling thunder, exploding in the ears of the man in black. He could even feel that the powerful pressure could crush him in an instant.

The man in black trembled, his head lowered. "Please forgive me, Demon Lord. The Princess of Great Zhou seems to have vanished. The Xuanxin Sect is also secretly investigating. We dare not make any moves, fearing that we might ruin your plans. But please rest assured, Demon Lord, I will complete the mission and will not let her escape for long."

"Xuanxin Sect? Humph!" The Demon Lord snorted coldly. In a flash, he was in front of the man in black. He grabbed his neck and lifted him up. He said, "Tell Li Tianlei that if he can kill the Princess of the Great Zhou this time, I will not only make him my registered disciple, but also give him all the luck of the Great Zhou."

His voice was icy cold, like a demon from the Netherworld.

The man in black nodded repeatedly in fear, "Yes, yes, Demon Lord, I will do my utmost and will not hesitate even if it means death."

The Demon Lord then threw him down fiercely. The man in black fell to the ground in a mess. He quickly stood up, bent over, and hurriedly left the hall.

The Demon Lord stared at the faint, flickering light. He clenched his fists, his joints turning white from the exertion. "It seems we need to quickly conquer the Great Zhou so we can find our junior sister without any restrictions."

A rare tenderness gradually emerged in his eyes: "Junior sister, no matter what, I will find you."

Yunfu County, inside the City God Temple.

As Ye Beixuan stepped into the gate of the City God Temple, a shadow walked out from the golden statue in the temple.

"Greetings, Mr. Ye. I wonder what brings you here?"

Ye Beixuan bowed and said, "I dare not. I came here to ask for something important."

"In that case, sir, please come this way."

Ye Beixuan bowed and said, "Then please."

It was night time and there was no one around. The City God brought Ye Beixuan into the temple.

Then he pinched his fingers and a mysterious passage door opened. He stepped into the passage and saw that the road surface was all bluestone with mysterious runes engraved on the stone.

Soon, they came to a room. The door slowly opened automatically, and there seemed to be an independent world inside.

"Mr. Ye, please come in."

As he stepped into the room, Ye Beixuan felt as if he was cut off from the outside world.

"Sir, what brings you here to visit me?"

The City God asked tentatively. In fact, he knew that this matter was not simple, otherwise the other party would not come to visit so late at night.

"It is indeed an important matter. I would like to ask how the City God and the ghost messengers here maintain their soul bodies."

Ye Beixuan knew that this was very abrupt. After all, these were other people's best kept secrets. Asking so directly was like exposing their secrets.

The old City God glanced at the souls emanating from his waist and fell into deep thought. Could it be that the ghost in his house had become troubled? After a moment, his face was heavy with worry. "Sir, you know, except for those of us who have been granted the Imperial Order, maintaining an immortal soul is not permitted for ordinary souls."

Ye Beixuan naturally knew that it was not allowed, but he didn't care so much. He took it one step at a time. He always felt that Yun Ge was not simply reincarnated, but rather dissipated. If it was reincarnation, it would not be a bad thing.

"Of course I know. I think it's just this once, so it shouldn't be discovered! City God, don't you agree?"

"This..." The old city god looked embarrassed.

It seems that if I don’t come up with something, I’m afraid it won’t work.

【Ghosts and Gods Fear lv3(0%)】

"The way of heaven is to reduce the excess and make up for the deficiency." Ye Beixuan ignored his refusal and recited a passage from the "Exhaling the Old and Inhaling the New" technique, though he didn't recite it in full.

Upon hearing this, the old city god stood up suddenly, his face showing shock. This... is this the cultivation method of the Immortal Mansion? Sir, are you going to teach me the method of cultivation?
But if it was discovered that I was partial and forced souls that should have fallen into reincarnation to stay in the human world, then I would probably have my title revoked.

"Don't worry, Mr. City God, I promise that no third person will know."

The old city god was in an extreme struggle, but Ye Beixuan pulled him back to his senses. He reacted and said, "Mr. Ye, please release the ghost so that Zhang can have a look."

Ye Beixuan took out an oil-paper umbrella and released Zhao Yunge's spirit. She lay quietly on the bluestone bench, like a sleeping beauty.

She looked even worse at the moment, and her spirit became increasingly transparent, as if it could dissipate at any moment.

"Sir, this umbrella seems to be very extraordinary!" The old city god took a look at the oil-paper umbrella and sighed.

The product of the system is naturally not simple. Ye Beixuan did not say anything but stared at him, waiting for him to continue.

Seeing that Ye Beixuan didn't want to reveal the origin of the umbrella, the old city god sighed and said, "Mr. Ye, this girl has other problems besides being tainted by worldly vulgarity. Even with my knowledge, I have never understood them. From my perspective, she is extremely weak at the moment, and being torn apart by the power of reincarnation, I am afraid that it won't be long before her soul is torn apart."

"If it weren't for sir's umbrella, she would have completely disappeared by now."

"Is there any way?"

Ye Beixuan was like seeing a doctor. When he heard the old city god describe the situation as so serious, he began to feel a little impatient, but he remained calm on the surface and asked.

"It's not that there is no way. One person is needed to perform the Three Talents and Six Jias Soul Guarding Technique, and another person is needed to play the Requiem to gather her three souls and seven spirits again." This is how the damaged spirits of the ghost messengers were rescued in the past.

After the old city god finished speaking, he continued quietly, "If one of them fails, her soul will be shattered and she will disappear forever. Sir, you must think carefully."

"Also, even if we save her soul, it's unknown what will happen to her. For example, she might lose her memory, or regain her memories from her past life and become a different person."

Ye Beixuan was stunned. Recover his memory? Lose his memory? Would Yun Ge disappear? Disappear forever? As if he had never existed?
Her words from the past were still ringing in his ears. Ye Beixuan gritted his teeth and said, "Please, City God, help me."

The old city god shook his head, took out the Requiem, handed it to Ye Beixuan and said, "Sir, we only have one chance. Let's get started without further delay!"

"Please let the City God begin." Ye Beixuan glanced at the Requiem and bowed. He had a jade flute, so it was not difficult for him to play any song.

The old city god looked shocked. Could it be that he could even learn Requiem just by looking at it?
However, he did not stop his actions. Instead, he waved his hand casually, and Yun Ge was suddenly surrounded by eternal lamps.

"The formation is complete, please play the music, sir."
