The whole family went mad, but the junior sister turned the tables and her luck soared.

Previously, Hua Yi and Yun Yici's group had gone through danger together, so Hua Zhong naturally stood with Wen Fuyue.

Now that the crisis has been averted and with profits at stake, people are naturally becoming more proactive and resourceful.

Hua Chong placed everyone on a folding fan and then transformed back into human form.

He calmly said to Wen Fuyue, "I originally thought that Fellow Daoist Wen's disciples might have met with misfortune, but I did not expect them to have such a wonderful encounter."

"Since it's about exorcising evil spirits, I might as well go along and see. If there's anything I can do to help, I'll do my best."

Even a fool could see through Hua Zhong's scheme.

Before Rong Xuan and the other two came out of the Blood Abyss, Hua Chong came up and tried to comfort Wen Fuyue.

Now that it has been proven that there is a hidden world beneath the Blood Abyss, Hua Zhong's attitude immediately changed.

His real purpose was simply to go down there and reap the benefits.

Rong Xuan and Ning Tinglan remained silent, but the thought of the remains of the Candle Dragon beneath the Blood Abyss filled them with a strong sense of unease.

It is precisely because no one has found the remains of Zhulong for tens of thousands of years that they have been able to remain peacefully to this day.

Once these demon cultivators discover the location of the remains, they will not only seize divine objects like the Candle Dragon Fire, but they will also steal and dismantle the bones themselves.

If the remains of Zhulong are destroyed, where will the vanished Yun Yici and Muyunjian come from?

Hearing Hua Zhong's words, Hua Yi, unaware of the sharp edge in his father's words, thought that Hua Zhong was genuinely trying to save someone.

He was still foolishly saying to Rong Xuan and Ning Tinglan, "When you went down, I swore I would find a way to get someone to rescue you. Now that my father is willing to go down too, stop dawdling."

"Let's hurry up and rescue that demon so we can go back together."

Hua Chong suppressed his disgust and the urge to raise his hand, thinking to himself that it was no wonder the female cultivator wanted to knock his silly boy's head; he wanted to do it too.

The child is so stupid, and it just so happens to be my own flesh and blood.

Wen Fuyue could tell that Rong Xuan and Ning Tinglan wanted to say something to her, but they remained silent because of the presence of outsiders like Bai Ruo and Hua Zhong.

He looked at the monk Mingwu, who had the most authority among the three but spoke very little.

Upon closer inspection, Wen Fuyue noticed that Mingwu was looking at Shen Huaichuan beside him with suspicion and uncertainty.

At Wen Fuyue's age, she had never met Mingwu before, and it was only through Li Ji that she recognized this Buddhist cultivator's identity.

Mingwu and Shen Huaichuan became famous at different times.

However, he mentally calculated the timeline.

More than two thousand years ago, the Lingwei Sect was lost. Around the same time, news spread that Shen Huaichuan had successfully ascended to immortality.

In the following one or two hundred years, the twelve sects began to take shape, recruiting disciples and growing in size.

Mingwu was born in an era when Shen Huaichuan was already revered by the world and called a sword immortal, so it is not impossible that he met Shen Huaichuan by chance when he was young.

The problem is that Shen Huaichuan realized this person had already ascended to immortality.

Wen Fuyue felt overwhelmed. One was a sword immortal who had ascended to immortality in everyone's eyes, and the other was the first abbot of Chanyin Temple who had fallen in everyone's eyes.

Worried that Mingwu would expose Shen Huaichuan's identity, he subtly turned his body slightly to block Mingwu's view.

Wen Fuyue calmed down, not afraid of offending Hua Zhong.

He bowed deeply to Mingwu and said, "My disciples thank Master Mingwu for his protection."

"I only have one question: are my other two disciples in any danger? Do you need me to go down into the Blood Abyss?"

Hua Chongming was clearly planning to use the pretext of helping Yun Yici and Mu Yunjian to stir up trouble.

Wen Fuyue had no idea what had happened to Yun Yici and the others down there.

He gave the choice to Mingwu; if it was inconvenient for them to go down, then he would completely abandon Huazhong's hopes.

After Wen Fuyue finished speaking, Li Ji Bai Ruo showed no dissatisfaction, but Hua Zhong immediately frowned.

“Fellow Daoist Wen, you don’t need to be so wary of me. Now, Lady Li Ji, Lady Bai Ruo, and I all know that there are mysteries beneath the Blood Abyss.”

"It's only a matter of time before we go down to the Blood Abyss. If you come down with us today, we might be able to lend a hand."

Those who were previously on the same side suddenly turned against each other.

Li Ji said, "There's no need to count me in. I'm the same as Wen Fuyue; I'll listen to Master Mingwu."

"He is both a mentor and a friend to me. I don't want to make things unpleasant for each other when we meet again today."

Bai Ruoze said, "I've come today to save people."

Seeing that the three great demons were fighting amongst themselves, Mingwu finally spoke up: "You may come in if you wish, but whether you can get in or not is not up to me."

He shone a beam of Buddhist light onto the surface of the Chishui River, and a golden teleportation array with intricate, strange, and beautiful patterns appeared on the water.

He realized, "This is the entrance."

Hua Chong stared at the raging red water beneath the teleportation array, his face ashen, and demanded, "Are you trying to trick us into going to our deaths?"

"None of the demon cultivators who fell into the Chishui River came out alive."

If the bald monk were to deactivate the teleportation array the moment he stepped on it, he would be swallowed up by the Red Water.

Mingwu said, "This is indeed the entrance, but I see that your mind is filled with all sorts of delusions, so it's best not to step on it."

When the mind is free of distractions, all things are empty.

Wen Fuyue looked at the teleportation array drawn by Mingwu for a while and said, "I believe in Master Mingwu."

Shen Huaichuan naturally followed Wen Fuyue.

The two actually managed to fly from the folding fan to the teleportation array floating on the water.

Immediately afterwards, the teleportation array flashed, and the two disappeared without a trace.

Rong Xuan and Ning Tinglan breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this scene.

Rong Xuan said to Mingwu, "We originally came up here to find our master. Now that our master has gone down, let's go down too."

As for the so-called help they offer, they don't care about it at all.

Hua Chong was itching to see Wen Fuyue and Shen Huaichuan successfully teleport.

He was still rational and looked at Li Ji and Bai Ruo beside him.

Although Li Ji did not have any dietary restrictions, she had cultivated herself for over a thousand years, following the path of Buddhist practice, not to mention her extreme trust in Mingwu.

She could almost see Wen Fuyue succeed and then continue on, with Bai Ruo following closely behind.

The two demons were successfully teleported one after the other.

Hua Chong was finally moved, but he did not take human form. Instead, he transformed into the true form of a mighty black dragon, and then his tail touched the teleportation array first.

Hua Yi watched helplessly as his father's large tail passed directly through the teleportation array and then plunged into the Red Water with a "whoosh".

The black dragon roared and soared into the sky, frantically shaking its tail.

From a distance, it looks like a black loach.

Hua Yi almost burst out laughing, but immediately stopped when she realized it was her own father.

He cursed, "You filthy bald monk, what kind of harmful formation is this? Others can pass it on, but my father can't?"

"Why didn't you set up the formation higher next time? Why did you put it on the water?"

"Take these two and get out of here quickly, the farther the better!"

If his father comes down and takes his anger out on those two, he'll be considered to have broken his vow.

Without saying much, Mingwu led Rong Xuan and Ning Tinglan away and disappeared from the spot.

The teleportation array on the water surface also vanished without a trace when he disappeared.

In the world, only the strange beasts on both sides of the Red River, the lonely Hua Yi on the folding fan, and the roar of the black dragon in the sky remain.
