Misery: There is a pawn shop here

Chapter 45 The Man Without Desires
The mountainside is surrounded by emerald green, a glazed wonderland.

The trace of transcendence reappears in the mortal world, and the transcendent fairy talks about having no desires!
A prodigy who once rivaled Su Huanzhen, known alongside him as the Sun and Moon Talents, had long since vanished from the martial arts world. Sheng Zong hadn't expected Tan Wuyu to reappear at this juncture, disguised as the Six Ugly Disabled Men.

"The talented Yue who commands half of the civil and military circles, wanders the world with the appearance of a disabled person." Shengzong swept his whisk, and the thin sword hidden in the handle revealed a cold light, as if warning, and as if testing.

"It seems you have a big plan."

Tan Wuyu smiled upon hearing this and said, "Shengzong, if I were you, I would choose to leave Liuli Fairyland immediately instead of wasting time here chatting with Tan."

"Oh?" Shengzong said doubtfully, "Does this mean that you want to let me go?"

Tan Wu Yu didn't answer the question, but simply changed the subject, saying, "Tan Wu Yu has his own agenda. Although he has clashed with Deng Jiu Wu and you several times, that wasn't Tan Wu Yu's original intention. Whether you believe this or not is up to you, Saint Trace. But I think the Geography Department's presence here means your identity has been exposed. I'm afraid you don't have much time left to waste in Liuli Wonderland."

"Oh?" Sheng Zong observed Tan Wu Yu. The latter's every move and gesture revealed his extraordinary style and confidence. For people like them, hiding their emotions was a necessary skill. Sheng Zong did not expect to find any flaws just by observation.

He was naturally skeptical of Tan Wuyu's words, but the fact that he had once been able to compete with Su Huanzhen meant he must have possessed extraordinary means. And time was the most precious thing for him right now. Before truly understanding the true meaning of Li Xuanxiao's words, he had to avoid all possible risks, including the possibility of uniting the holy and the evil.

Now that there is a way to leave without fighting, it is naturally the best. However, before leaving, Shengzong does not mind making one more small, time-saving move to test the waters a little.

"Since the otherworldly fairies and the righteous are not of the same kind, then perhaps there is still room for us to cooperate in the future?" Sheng Zong said, his eyes fixed on Tan Wu Yu, trying to find a flaw in the other's expression.

"Cooperation?" Tan Wuyu glanced at Shengzong, then laughed. "Tan Wuyu only cooperates with worthy people. Your plan has been exposed today, and you will surely be hunted down and intercepted by all sides of the righteous path. Jianzi Xianji, Fojian Fenshuo, Aoxiao Hongchen, and Ye Xiaochai are not easy to deal with. It won't be too late to discuss cooperation after you survive."

Shengzong remained silent after hearing this and said, "I intend to burn down the Glazed Fairyland to shock the martial arts world before leaving today. Do you, Fairy Transcendence, intend to stop me?"

As soon as the words fell, Shengzong could see Tan Wuyu's eyes light up, as if he was excited about something. But then Tan Wuyu just flicked his whisk and turned away: "As you wish, this matter has nothing to do with me, please."

Seeing Shengzong letting Tan Wuyu leave like this, the Geography Department came forward and asked, "The Six Ugly Waste has repeatedly opposed us, why don't you keep him here?"

Sheng Zong shook his head and said, "Tan Wuyu and Su Huanzhen are not on good terms. Their intentions are unclear at this time, so it would be unwise to engage them. Let's put down the fire and leave. Ha, the real battle begins now."

Seeing that Shengzong had made his decision, the Geography Bureau offered no further persuasion. The two Xiantians raised their hands and, with a single wave, flames engulfed the entire Glazed Fairyland. They vanished at the foot of Cuihuan Mountain. Just as Shengzong and the Geography Bureau departed, a sudden, favorable wind blew through the burning Glazed Fairyland, fanning the flames. Fueled by the wind, the fire swarmed like a raging dragon, casting a shadow across Cuihuan Mountain like a purgatory. The residence of the righteous leader, Su Huanzhen, was reduced to ruins by the blaze. The only real relief was that the fire did not spread to the entire Cuihuan Mountain.

……

By the time the righteous side, including Qin Jiaxian, Qu Shitu, Jian Zixianji, Jian Xue Wuming and others arrived after hearing the news of the fire in Liuli Fairyland, only broken walls and ruins were left in Liuli Fairyland.

"Oh my, how could it be like this so suddenly?" Qu Shitu cried out in despair as he looked at the ruins of the Glazed Wonderland. Glazed Wonderland was Su Huanzhen's residence, but as a long-term resident here, Qu Shitu had invested as much effort in Glazed Wonderland as Su Huanzhen, the owner.

"Shengzong is still one step faster." Jianzi Xianji sighed helplessly and shook his head.

After coming into contact with Jian Xue Wuming and learning the truth of everything, he and Jian Xie immediately headed towards Cuihuan Mountain, but they were still one step too late in the end. After that, Shengzong and the Geographical Bureau turned from open to secret, and it would be difficult to plot against them.

"Big brother, something bad has happened!" At this time, Ye Tu Ling, who was sent by Qin Jiaxian to search the ruins, crawled out from inside, holding a gray object in his hand.

Qin Jiaxian was already in a bad mood, and seeing Ye Tuling like this made him even more furious. He raised his hand and punched Ye Tuling on the head.

"Howl, howl, what are you howling for? Did you see a ghost or something?"

"Big boy~" Ye Tuling covered his head with one hand and put the thing in his hand in front of Qin Jiaxian with the other hand, "It's not a ghost, but it's almost like one."

"This is..." Qin Jiaxian took a closer look and suddenly jumped back a step, "How could this be, this is!"

"Six ugly cripples?!" Jianzi Xianji also saw that what Ye Tuling was holding in his hand was the corpse of the six ugly cripples, or strictly speaking, body parts.

Qu Shitu was also shocked when he heard this. "The corpse of the Six Ugly Cripples, does that mean that the Six Ugly Cripples were also killed by Saint Trace?"

Jian Zixianji frowned and said nothing, and after calming down, Qin Jiaxian also frowned when he looked at what Ye Tuling was holding in his hand.

"This... isn't right."

"What's wrong, Qin Jiaxian?" asked Jianzi Xianji from the side.

"This body part clearly shows the appearance of someone who has been dead for a long time." Qin Jiaxian took a closer look. "Even if we say that the Six Ugly Cripples are crippled, a living person who has been dead overnight would never look like this. I, Old Qin, can guarantee this. Jianzi, this Six Ugly Cripples doesn't look like a simple person."

Qin Jiaxian has been a corpse collector in the martial arts world for many years. Neither Jian Zixianji nor Qu Shitu would doubt his ability to identify corpses. Therefore, the identity of Liuchou Feiren is even more suspicious.

"It seems there's something else going on here." Jian Zixianji pondered fruitlessly, so he decided to give up for now. He looked at Jian Xie and said, "Forget it. We'll investigate this later. Now, let's free Su Huanzhen from the golden seal. Jian Xue Wuming, thank you for your help."

Jian Xue Wuming nodded, and followed Qu Shitu to the place where Su Huanzhen's golden body was hidden.
