The most melodramatic rebirth in history

Chapter 497 The Return Journey [Part 3]

In the end, Yin Jiu stayed.

Besides Elder Tong and Mo Yu, Xiang Qiubai and Ji Sheng also accompanied Feng Ling back to the Yuqing Sect.

Both the human and the ghost volunteered for the mission. As honorary guests of the Holy City of Fierce Ghosts, they held a special position, not as subordinates or followers, and possessed a high degree of freedom of action.

As long as they do not directly harm the interests of the Holy City, even if they intend to represent other sects in the Ten Thousand Sects Grand Competition, the other high-ranking officials of the Fierce Ghost Holy City have no right to interfere.

After all, honorary guest elders are not obligated to represent the Holy City in the Grand Tournament of Ten Thousand Sects. On the contrary, they can represent friendly sects unless the leader of the city lord issues a personal order.

But clearly, neither Yin Jiu nor Feng Ling would issue such an inhumane ban.

Not to mention, Xiang Qiubai himself was a disciple of the Yuqing Sect, and Ji Sheng, as Xiang Qiubai's virtuous wife, could also be considered half a member of the Yuqing Sect.

Therefore, it was perfectly reasonable for the couple to volunteer to return and fight for the Yuqing Sect, and Feng Ling would certainly not refuse.

……

"Junior Brother Feng Ling, to avoid unnecessary trouble, please call me by the alias Lin Mu when we return to the sect! When the time is right, I will apologize to the sect leader and master!"

In the ultra-long-distance teleportation channel, Xiang Qiubai suddenly took out a silver-white wolf fang mask and put it on, revealing deep worry in his eyes beneath the mask.

This reveals the unease within him!
Xiang Qiubai betrayed the sect and fled under Feng Ling's cover to protect Leng Ningshuang, which was a disgrace to the sect.

It was only because Feng Ling had a special identity and was Feng Yuqing's beloved that she was able to survive after providing cover for her defection. If it had been Xiang Qiubai who stayed behind, who knows what kind of severe punishment he would have suffered from the Yuqing Sect.

"Then let's do as... Senior Brother Linmu says!"

Feng Ling naturally understood that Xiang Qiubai's concerns were not without merit, and upon hearing this, he readily nodded in agreement, while also changing his words.

However, Ji Sheng was just as uneasy!
"Bai Lang, my heart is pounding. What kind of people are the people from Master's hometown?"

She lowered her head and tightly gripped Xiang Qiubai's sleeve, looking like an ugly daughter-in-law about to meet her in-laws.

This has nothing to do with the level of cultivation! After all, a teacher for a day is a father for life, and Xiang Qiubai's master is like her parents-in-law!
Ji Sheng knew that their relationship was a love between a human and a ghost that was difficult for the world to accept. He was not sure if he could be accepted by the being he had never met. He could only hope to perform well in the Grand Tournament of Ten Thousand Sects before revealing his true identity, so as to leave a good impression on that being.

"boom!!"

Suddenly, a violent tremor came from the spatial teleportation channel at the far end, and a large piece of the spatial barrier shattered and opened up.

"Oh no! There's a malfunction at the end of the teleportation channel. We're about to be caught in spatial turbulence! Quickly, focus all your strength on defense!"

Feng Ling had barely finished speaking.

An overwhelming spatial suction force erupted and raged, forcing the people, whose attention was diverted and who were unable to react effectively in time, to deviate from the teleportation trajectory and be sucked in.

...Eastern Sacred Continent, northeastern part, a corner of the Cangmang Mountains.

An eerie wind rose in the lush mountain forest!

In an instant, sand and stones flew through the forest, and birds and beasts scattered in panic, hiding in rock caves, bird nests, and tree nests.

In the next instant, the void suddenly trembled and twisted violently, and a huge vortex gap appeared out of thin air.

Immediately, four weightless figures tumbled out from the middle and fell into the vast, endless green forest below.

"Is everyone alright?"

Feng Ling landed first and steadied himself, then looked around at the others scattered not far from the dense forest and asked them a question.

"I'm fine, just a little dizzy and nauseous!"

Xiang Qiubai leaned against an old pine tree, suppressing the urge to vomit. He had the lowest cultivation level present and had been swept up in the spatial turbulence for a while, so it was normal for him to feel unwell.

Ji Sheng quickly leaped over, her red lips close to his earlobe and she blew a few breaths, which softened his expression considerably.

"Alas, I left a phoenix tree seed in the Yuqing Mountains. I intended to use it to locate and teleport back to the vicinity of the Yuqing Mountains, but things still went wrong. Fortunately, the deviation was not too great!"

Elder Tong, leaning on his golden scepter, sighed as he stepped out of Feng Ling's sea of ​​consciousness, waving his hand to dispel the lingering spatial vortex.

He felt ashamed of his old face after being embarrassed in front of several juniors, but he had doubts in his heart: With my current cultivation level, I can use a phoenix seed to replace the teleportation array and achieve one-way teleportation. There shouldn't be any problems with this!
"Yes, ahead lies the Cangmang Mountains - Wanfengtai. Thank you for your help, Elder Tong! After several years, you've finally returned!"

Feng Ling leaped into the air, gazing at the distant, strange yet familiar mountain peaks that seemed to have been cleaved by a knife and axe, his heart filled with emotion.

Immediately, Feng Ling felt a pang of homesickness, his palms sweating as he held Mo Yuyu's hand. But then, a thought struck him, and he summoned his black cloud mount, inviting the others to join him:
"Everyone, Wanfengtai is located at the junction of the Alchemy Branch and the Jade Purity Branch, not far from the Jade Purity Sect's territory. Let's keep a low profile... and fly back!"

Compared to the shock of tearing through space and the commotion caused by spatial teleportation, flying back was indeed a low-key affair.

"Okay, I'll do whatever you want!"

Upon hearing this, the other three—one human, one ghost, one demon, and one monster—smiled knowingly, but didn't reveal anything, and all leaped onto their black cloud mounts.

Immediately afterwards, the air currents surged, and the black cloud mount transformed into a shadowy figure, carrying everyone at high speed above the dense forest, heading straight for the Wanfeng Terrace on the distant horizon.

Every time a creature hatches, it's a new beginning...

The world is full of chaos and troubles; may the sages and saints offer you a pure land for your souls.
