Legend of the Great Sage (Chapter 301-Chapter 400)

Then he checked Diao Fei and saw that he was unscathed. If the Daemon General was so arrogant and powerful, why did he let them go alive? That was why he asked for confirmation.

“Absolutely. If you don’t believe me, commander, I’ve brought two of my junior brothers with me. The other senior and junior brothers have all seen it too. The news should spread before long. I hope this is sufficient time for the commander to make a decision.”

“Come with me!” Wang Pushi leapt up from his seat. Recently, the conflict between humans and daemons had grown more and more violent. It was not restricted to the Clear River prefecture or the Ruyi commandery. Instead, the entire Green province was smoking with the signs of war.

However, something like a Daemon General killing a Foundation Establishment cultivator was still unheard of, let alone killing three at the same time. If it really were true, then it would be a colossal case. He would have to report this to commander Gu immediately so that she could make a decision on the matter.





Chapter 372: Gu Yanying's Mission | Legend of the Great Sage




Diao Fei arrived in a square room in the corner of the building, but the room was empty. The snow-white walls, floor, and ceiling were covered with inscriptions containing many grooves.

Wang Pushi filled the grooves with spiritual stones and activated the formation. With a flash of light, a figure appeared in the room, only stabilising after flickering a bit. It was an envoy in black, who bowed. “Sir, you’ve activated the Projection formation. What’s the matter?”

“Commander Wang Pushi of the Clear River prefecture has urgent matters to report. Please let me see ma’am Gu!” Wang Pushi clasped his hands and stressed the word “see”.

“Please wait, sir.”

Gu Yanying could not help but become rather curious when she heard that Wang Pushi was looking for her urgently, even activating the Projection formation. She arrived in the room with the Projection formation and saw Wang Pushi’s figure. She smiled. “Old Wang, what’s made you so frantic?”

Wang Pushi bowed before pulling Diao Fei to his side. “Tell her what you just told me.”

“Subordinate Diao Fei g- greets ma’am Gu!” Diao Fei lowered his head, afraid to look at the hovering figure in white. He went through everything again, from beginning to end.

Gu Yanying remained as relaxed as before, but her smile did become slightly less wide. She felt rather powerless in the end. Everywhere is smoking with signs of war, so just why must the flames have to end up being lit where I am?

“Do you know where the daemon came from?” He killed no bystanders, only targeting the elders of the three mountains. Not only did this confound Wang Pushi, but it made Gu Yanying sink into her thoughts as well. The pitch-black hand that extended out from the hall and the scarlet-red eyes did make her think of a few things.

However, she dismissed the thought immediately. How was that possible? Daemon and Daemon General were worlds apart. Even if it took him over a century, it would still be rather fast.

“I’m not sure?”

“Do you remember what the daemon looked like?”

“I don’t.” Diao Fei was afraid his gaze would attract the daemon’s attention, so he never dared to look at it properly. He clearly remembered many special characteristics back then, but now, all that was left in his mind were the scarlet eyes that shone like fire.

“Isn’t Chu Shidao in Clear River? Get him to paint him!”

Wang Pushi hurried off to the Academy of the Hundred Schools.

……

“Father, what brings you here?” In the Academy of the Hundred Schools, Yu Zijian grabbed Yu Shukuang’s hands in surprise and joy.

Yu Shukuang knew that the matter held great importance, so he was afraid of blabbering about it. As a result, all he said was, “I miss you, so I wanted to see you. What’s wrong with that? Sigh, you really have grown up. You’re just like your mother back then, no, you’re even more beautiful than your mother.”

Yu Zijian wore a set of azure robes for daoist priests. Her black hair was tied up into a bun, and she carried the Nine Yang sword on her back. It was a simple appearance, but it only made her seem brighter and more beautiful, completely pure.

It had only been two years, and she had already reached the fifth layer. Moreover, this was because the slovenly daoist priest wanted her to build a proper foundation. Otherwise, if she just pursued cultivation speed, she would have been even faster. She was like a rough jade that was having its outer layer of rock being slowly chipped away. Just the slightest glimmer seemed to be magnificent. Her figure had become beautiful before she knew it.

“There’s nothing wrong with that. In the past, you wouldn’t even come when I wanted you to come. Did something happen at home?” Yu Zijian asked in doubt.

Yu Shukuang knew his daughter was not as easy to coax as before, so he whispered, “I can’t tell you right now. I’ll tell you later.”

“Acting all mysterious, huh? Oh, have you heard anything about Niu Juxia lately?” Yu Zijian’s bright face immediately became dyed with a hint of worry.

This question again!



Yu Shukuang and Yu Lian exchanged glances. Yu Shukuang smiled bitterly. “Don’t worry. He’s doing much better than you!”

“How do you know this? You have news about him, don’t you?” Yu Zijian grabbed Yu Shukuang’s arm firmly and asked urgently.

You’re the one who told me! The only reason Yu Shukuang had received news about Li Qingshan was because Yu Zijian had mentioned the interesting matters happening in the academy at the time. However, he obviously could not just tell her something like, Your father has sworn an oath on his own moral character about this, alright? I do have news about him, but I can’t tell you about it. This is what he wanted.

“Is he really fine?”

“He really is fine.”

“Then why hasn’t he come to find me? So much for worrying for him.” Yu Zijian felt like a huge burden had been lifted from her shoulders. She began to smile, wandering off in her thoughts again.

Yu Shukuang, on the other hand, was worried. Don’t tell me this girl has actually taken a liking to Li Qingshan? She’s still so attached to him even after two years. She has already grown into a proper lady now. Sigh, when men grow up, they get married. When women grow up, they get married off.

Green Vine had rambled about something like severing his ties and devoting himself to cultivation, but he never believed that. He understood the pain of loneliness the best. How could you go without a companion in this world?

He had to properly keep an eye over this aspect for her. The kid is a little stubborn, but aside from that, he’s not a bad choice. Should I tell her his identity? I’ll need to bring it up with him the next time I see him.

Yu Zijian brought Yu Shukuang and Yu Lian around on Wuwei island happily, and as a result, Yu Shukuang began to ask about Li Qingshan like it was an accident.

“Oh, you’re talking about senior brother Li, right? He’s already reached the eighth layer, and he even clashed with the senior brother Chu I mentioned before a while ago. In the end, he defeated him instantly. He’s so powerful!”

Yu Shukuang nodded in satisfaction. Now that’s the cultivation suitable for my daughter. Once he becomes my son-in-law, he won’t bear to scold me anymore, right?

“He spent so much time in the alchemy room with senior sister Ru Xin. When senior sister Han comes out, she’ll probably never spare him. Hehe, that’s what Chenglu said.”

“What’s senior sister Ru Xin and senior sister Han about?”

Yu Zijian told Yu Shukuang the gossip enthusiastically and noticed that Yu Shukuang’s expression had changed. She asked in surprise, “Father, what’s wrong?”
