Chapter 143 Blood on the way home
After sending the message, Song Jie placed Lingyin Yujue on the table and waited patiently.
Not long after, Lingyin Yujue gave off a faint light.
Song Jie couldn’t wait to pour a bit of spiritual power into Lingyin Yujue.
The next moment, Huangfu Shen’s voice came out.
“Fellow Daoist Song, I am still in the Alchemy Sect at the moment, interrogating those demons…
“What do you find me for?”
Without hesitation, Song Jie immediately replied with a message.
“What happened today has made me a little concerned, and I would like to ask fellow Taoist Huangfu about the Heavenly Demon and the situation of ‘Xu Yuan’.
“I wonder if fellow Taoist Huangfu can tell me something conveniently?”
After waiting for a while, Huangfu God sent another message.
“It is not convenient to reveal too much about the situation of ‘Xu Yuan’ to Fellow Daoist Song for the time being. This is related to the safety of the entire Yunmo Continent.
“As for the Heavenly Demons, Fellow Daoist Song can treat them as a new ethnic group.
“A group that is different from our human race, let’s call them the Demon Clan.
“For more news, after some time, after the five major sects have discussed it, an announcement should be issued in various towns and cities in Yunmo Continent.
“Friend Daoist Song can pay attention to the content of the announcement at that time.
“At present, the five major sects have not yet conducted discussions, and I am not sure whether I can reveal some information to you.”
“The Demon Clan…”
Song Jie rubbed his chin thoughtfully.
“It seems like this matter has a great impact!”
Huangfu Shen could even tell him about the foundation building of heaven and earth, but he didn’t want to reveal too much about this matter.
This already illustrates the seriousness of this matter.
“It’s also possible that my current level of cultivation is too low and I’m not qualified to know too much inside information.
“If I had the cultivation level of fellow Taoist Huangfu, I would be able to directly participate in it.”
Song Jie shook his head and no longer dwelled on the matter at the moment.
Since God Huangfu said it, the five major sects will issue an announcement in a while.
Then wait for some time and see.
Moreover, when the sky falls, there is a tall one holding it up.
Even if this matter is very harmful and serious, it is not something that a young monk in his Qi refining stage can worry about.
For him, the top priority now is to improve his cultivation as soon as possible and then look for opportunities to enter the secret realm of Tongtian.
After thinking about this, Song Jie immediately sent another message back to Huangfu God.
“Okay, thank you Taoist friend Huangfu.
“Besides, I should be setting off back to Xinyuefang City tomorrow.
“I hope that the next time we meet with fellow Taoist Huangfu, you and I can both make breakthroughs.”
After a while, another message came back from Huangfu Shen.
“Okay, I can’t get away for now, so I won’t be able to say goodbye to Fellow Daoist Song tomorrow.
“I wish fellow Taoist Song a happy journey…
“The next time we see each other, I hope that Fellow Daoist Song has successfully established the foundation of Heavenly Dao.”
“Thank you Taoist friend Huangfu for your blessing.”
After replying to the message, Song Jie put away Lingyin Yujue.
Then he stopped thinking about anything, went to bed, sat cross-legged and meditated, and started tonight’s practice.
……
The next morning.
Song Jie ended his training early as usual.
After washing up, we had a delicious breakfast in the courtyard.
Then he took a chariot and went to the White Jade Square of the Alchemy Sect, preparing to conduct the pre-arranged transaction with several disciples of the Alchemy Sect.
In just one night, the pulpit, VIP table, and seats in the White Jade Square were all dismantled and disappeared.
The huge white jade square became empty again.
There is also a sign hanging at the entrance of Baiyu Square.
The general meaning of the above content is to inform the monks who participated in the “Elixir Discussion Conference” that due to yesterday’s incident, this “Elixir Discussion Conference” ended early, and to express the apology of the Alchemy Sect to the majority of monks.
Although the elders of the Alchemy Sect informed the incident on the spot yesterday, there are still a large number of monks who fled here early and they do not know the news.
At this time, many monks, like Song Jie, stood in front of the notice board and looked at the notice.
Some of these monks really wanted to come and see the follow-up of the “Elixir Discussion Conference”.
Others came to explore the news and see if they could learn about the follow-up to yesterday’s incident.
Seeing that this “Elixir Forum” ended early, many monks left with regrets.
The opportunity for the leader of the Alchemy Sect to answer questions in person was gone. Not only did they feel regretful, but even Song Jie felt a little regretful.
Everyone knows that at the next “Elixir Forum”, the master of the Alchemy Sect will not personally set up a forum to give a lecture and answer questions for everyone.
After a while, the disciples of the Danding Sect who had made an appointment with Song Jie to trade Xuanyang Pill also arrived at Baiyu Square.
The two parties completed the Xuanyang Pill transaction quietly, as if they were talking about ordinary things between friends.
After seeing off this Alchemy Sect disciple, another Alchemy Sect disciple soon arrived.
Because these disciples of the Alchemy Sect didn’t want their fellow disciples to know that they were buying aphrodisiac pills from Song Jie.
So Song Jie specially arranged transactions for them at different time periods, and informed them that there were other Danding Sect disciples who had also made reservations for Xuanyang Pill with him.
In order to avoid meeting their fellow disciples, these disciples of the Alchemy Sect adhered to the time and came to trade with Song Jie.
It didn’t take long for Song Jie to complete transactions with these Danding Sect disciples one after another.
And we also obtained some follow-up information about yesterday’s events from their mouths.
According to them, all the demons who were trapped in the ambush set by Huangfu God yesterday have been imprisoned.
Last night, the head of the Alchemy Sect, together with several senior elders and Huangfu Shen, interrogated those demons all night long.
During this period, various shrill screams of the demons were heard from time to time in the cell.
Many disciples of the Alchemy Sect are speculating about what happened during the interrogation process, and what the sect leader and the others asked from the demon.
It’s a pity that what happened after this incident is an absolute secret even within the Alchemy Sect.
Currently, only the head of the Alchemy Sect and a few senior elders are participating in the interrogation of the demon.
As for the disciples of the Alchemy Sect, they were busy for nearly a whole night last night.
Mainly to heal the injured monks and to count the casualties this time.
According to preliminary statistics, there are forty-six monks who have died due to the impact.
They are all monks in the Qi refining stage.
There were a total of 157 injured monks.
Seventy-nine people were seriously injured.
A considerable number of the monks who were seriously injured may not be able to achieve immortality in the future.
After hearing the news, Song Jie couldn’t help but sigh.
Years of training were all in vain because of this accident.
For those monks who will not be able to achieve immortality in the future, even if their injuries are healed this time, their inner wounds may remain difficult to heal for the rest of their lives.
Before traveling through time, when Song Jie saw the news broadcasting some natural and man-made disasters, he would always say with emotion that the lives of ordinary people are sometimes so fragile.
Now that he is a monk in the Qi Refining Stage, he is still lamenting the fragility of life.
This experience once again strengthened Song Jie’s pursuit of immortality.
After completing the transaction and standing there with emotion, Song Jie took out the Lingyin Jade Jue and sent a message to Mu Lingxuan.
Tell the other party that he is going back to Xinyuefang City and hopes to see Shi Ning again before going back.
Mu Lingxuan also responded to him quickly.
Because of what happened yesterday, there are now many things within the sect that need her to coordinate and handle.
So now she couldn’t get away to say goodbye to Song Jie in person, for which Mu Lingxuan expressed her apology to Song Jie.
Song Jie naturally didn’t care about this.
However, although Mu Lingxuan was not free to come, she still arranged for the disciples of the sect to meet Shi Ning and Song Jie.
Not long after, the unrelated father and son met again.
After not seeing each other for a few days, Song Jie could tell that Shi Ning seemed to be more mature than before.
Living independently within the sect allowed him to grow a little.
After learning that Shi Ning was fine in the Danding Sect, Song Jie felt relieved.
In this way, he can go back to report to Shi Lei and his wife.
After learning that Song Jie was going back to Xinyuefang City, Shi Ning said goodbye to Song Jie with red eyes.
He also told Song Jie that he would often write letters home to report on his life in the sect.
Song Jie waved to him and didn’t say much. He just told him to practice hard.
Then we came to the foot of the mountain, took the chariot and returned to Danhua Town.
When he arrived in Danhua Town, Song Jie found a car dealer and spent some spiritual stones to buy a carriage and a BMW with a trace of monster blood.
This kind of horse with the blood of monsters has much better endurance than ordinary horses, and is very suitable for long-distance running.
“I’m finally going back…”
Outside Danhua Town, Song Jie looked at the town he had lived in for half a month and silently said goodbye to this town in his heart.
Then he knelt down and rubbed Jinjiao’s head.
“When we came here, we came with a large army, but when we went back, we were the only two.”
The convoy from Xinyuefang City had already set off back to Xinyuefang City on the second day after the end of the Alchemy Sect’s entry trial.
So Song Jie could only go back alone.
Well, there is also a unicorn alchemy beast.
“Ouch~”
Jinjiao called out, raised his head, and licked Song Jie’s hand.
Song Jie smiled slightly and said, “Let’s go back~”
With that said, Song Jie jumped onto the carriage with one leap.
Golden Horn also followed him and jumped up together.
After everyone and the beast arrived and sat down, Song Jie immediately drove the horses and drove forward.
……
Although the journey back is a bit long, Song Jie is now a monk at the sixth level of the Qi Refining Stage. If he pays a little attention on the way, he can still return to Xinyuefang City relatively safely.
Moreover, he is not alone, there is Golden Horn accompanying him.
Even though Golden Horn still looks like such a small monster, its combat power is not weak at all.
Some time ago, Song Jie conducted some tests on Jinjiao and found that Jinjiao’s comprehensive combat ability was at least equivalent to that of a fifth-level monk in the Qi Refining Stage.
Even stronger than most fifth-level monks in the Qi refining stage.
If we were to compare speed alone, even Song Jie’s Mizongbu, which was now at the perfect state, could not compare with Jin Jiao.
It seems that monsters have a natural advantage in speed and strength.
The Golden Horn’s advantage in speed is particularly prominent.
Along the way, the man and the beast took turns driving the carriage, driving leisurely in the direction of Xinyuefang City.
Under Song Jie’s support over the years, Golden Horn is not a lucky beast that only knows how to cook.
Jin Jiao’s current IQ is almost equivalent to that of a ten-year-old child, and he is also very obedient.
Apart from being unable to speak, there is no problem with normal communication.
Under Song Jie’s guidance, Jin Jiao quickly learned how to drive a carriage.
Moreover, with the suppression of blood, the carriage controlled by Jin Jiao was more stable than the one controlled by Song Jie.
Jinjiao is like a child, full of curiosity about new things.
Driving a carriage is a particularly novel thing for it.
So it’s also very keen on driving.
They seem to enjoy the feeling of driving other animals.
Because of this, Song Jie meditated and rested in the carriage most of the time.
Only when they reached a populated place, the golden horns were replaced and he drove the carriage himself.
It is somewhat unusual for a monster to drive a carriage.
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Song Jie would let Jin Jiao rest in the carriage at the right time.
At night, Song Jie did not continue on the road. After all, the horses also needed to rest.
Even if he specially bought a BMW with monster blood and better endurance, he still couldn’t keep going without stopping.
At night, Song Jie and Jin Jiao would take turns keeping watch to let the horses have a good rest.
Song Jie still trusted Jin Jiao’s vigilance.
Back then, so many monks entered Shiwanda Mountain, but none of them caught the golden horn.
In addition to the fact that Golden Horn is a luck beast, it has its own luck blessing.
His alertness will certainly not be bad.
The reason why he and Huangfu Shen were caught in the first place was mainly because Huangfu Shen’s level was much higher than that of Jinjiao.
Moreover, God Huangfu himself is good at concealing his whereabouts.
You know, Huangfu God’s ability to hide his whereabouts is not even noticed by the Alchemy Sect’s master and many elders.
A few days ago, God Huangfu went to the vicinity of “Xuyuan” and arranged an ambush that could trap the demon, but no one discovered it yet.
This shows how superb Huangfu God is at hiding his whereabouts.
Therefore, it was not unjust for Jin Jiao to be caught by them in the first place.
In this way, under the division of labor between man, beast and horse, Song Jie got closer and closer to Xinyuefang City.
Before I knew it, the journey was already halfway over.
The journey was uneventful and no danger was encountered.
On this day, Jin Jiao was still driving the carriage, and Song Jie was meditating and resting in the carriage.
Suddenly, the traveling carriage stopped.
Song Jie, who was sitting in the car, slowly opened his eyes.
“Have we reached a populated place again?”
In the past few times, whenever he arrived at a populated place, Jin Jiao would stop the carriage and let Song Jie drive.
Immediately, Song Jie stood up and opened the curtain in front of the carriage.
Before he could say a few words or praise Jinjiao, the smile on his face froze.
He smelled the smell of blood in the air…
