Chapter 1039: Upper Immortal City

Looking at Luo Qingcheng's safe birth, Ye Chunyang was relieved and left the palace silently.

However, he was not in a hurry to leave Jingyuan Kingdom.

Luo Qingcheng, who had just experienced reincarnation, needed some time to slowly awaken her cultivation and memory. He had to ensure that Luo Qingcheng would be safe during this period, so he decided to stay in the mortal world for a while longer.

The news of the birth of the princess of Jingyuan Kingdom soon spread throughout the country, and all civil and military officials came to congratulate. There was a university scholar in the court who was good at observing stars and geography. He said that when the princess came to the world, she showed purple air and strange phenomena. She must be an extraordinary life, or a reincarnation of an immortal. This made the Emperor Jingyuan very happy. He implemented amnesty and reward, reduced taxes for civilians for three years, and stopped fighting in the army.

The whole country celebrated for a while, saying that the princess was a lucky star and was deeply respected by everyone.

Soon after, a Taoist priest came to the Jingyuan Palace. He was a kind-looking old man who often wore a flowing Taoist robe. He not only gave advice to the emperor, but also saved the princess from danger many times. With the help of this Taoist priest, Jingyuan Kingdom was able to expand its territory and became a powerful country.

Emperor Jingyuan valued this Taoist priest very much and gave him good farmland and a mansion. However, the Taoist priest was mysterious and disappeared quietly after the princess grew up to five years old. No one has ever found his whereabouts since then. Emperor Jingyuan sent people to inquire everywhere, but there was no news since then, and no one has ever heard of any news about him.

…

Ten years later.

On the top of a towering lonely peak, a startling rainbow suddenly flashed in the sky, and turned into an old man with white eyebrows and long beard who landed there. He was dressed in Taoist robes and fluttered in the wind. His eyes were as deep as a deep pool, as if piercing the void.

If Emperor Jingyuan was here, he would definitely recognize at a glance that this was the Taoist priest who assisted him in the court and protected the princess for several years.

After standing quietly for about half a minute, his body was shining with spiritual light, and his old and kind face disappeared, turning into a handsome face. His mortal Taoist robes also turned into a black long gown. It was Ye Chunyang.

"Luo'er once said that the small reincarnation technique would be dormant for ten years. Now that ten years have passed, I think her cultivation and memory have begun to awaken. I wanted to leave after her memory was fully restored, but Senior Brother Yan told me that there is a "crimson heart grass" whereabouts, which is worth going to explore. However, I also left a spiritual mark for Luo'er. I believe she will find it when her cultivation is restored in the future."

Muttering softly, Ye Chunyang spread his body and fled into the distance.

According to his original plan, he wanted to stay with Luo Qingcheng for a few more years in Jingyuan Country, but not long ago, Yan Chen activated the secret method left after they made an agreement with each other that year, and said that there was news of a "crimson heart grass", asking him to go and meet him quickly.

If it were an ordinary spiritual herb, Ye Chunyang would not be so tempted, but this crimson heart grass is one of the spiritual herbs for refining the spirit-transforming pill. He had accidentally asked Yan Chen about it that year, but there was no result at that time. However, the latter promised to inform him if there was any clue in the future. Now it really brought him an unexpected surprise.

...

Shangxian City.

This can be regarded as the largest immortal cultivation city in Taiyuan Immortal Dynasty. Countless immortal cultivators come and go. This is because Shangxian City is not only the place with the widest flow of treasures in Taiyuan Immortal Dynasty, but also because it is the place where the Yuan family is entrenched.

The Yuan family is a special existence in the immortal cultivation world. They are actually no different from other clans. It’s just that after the ancient war between humans and demons, both mortals and immortal cultivators were displaced. The Yuan family had three emperors and five emperors who took action to pacify the world and divided the world into various countries, so that mortals could continue. Although the Yuan family rarely intervenes in the affairs of the mortal world, the benevolence and righteousness of the ancestors of this clan are deeply admired by everyone, and the various factions in the immortal cultivation world also give this clan three points of courtesy.

Over time, Shangxian City, where the Yuan family royal family lived, became a place where immortal cultivators came and went. Although there were all kinds of people, no one dared to act rashly due to the authority of the Yuan family. Instead, valuable treasures often appeared in various auctions, attracting more people to come here.

A few days later, Ye Chunyang arrived outside Shangxian City in a dusty state. The place where Yan Chen had sent him a message to meet was here.

He had learned a lot about the Yuan family royal family and Shangxian City along the way. Ye Chunyang could roughly guess the purpose of Yan Chen's meeting here. The news about the "Jiangxin Grass" was probably obtained here.

After thinking for a while, Ye Chunyang did not pause too much and was about to enter the city after descending from the clouds.

But the conversation he overheard next made him pause, and his eyes narrowed slightly when he looked at the figures at the city gate.

"Elder Li, is your Xianyuan Mirror really effective? We have been guarding here for a full ten years since Senior Brother Wu was killed. We have checked almost every day, but we still can't find the man. Could it be that this Xianyuan Mirror is useless and doesn't let him show his true self?"

"Humph! What does Elder Ma mean by this? Do you suspect that I am faking it? Let me tell you, this Xianyuan Mirror of mine is made by imitating the Tongtian Lingbao. It not only has incredible killing power against the inner elixir of monsters, but also specializes in breaking the art of disguise and concealment. If that man appears in Shangxian City, he will definitely not be able to escape the appearance of this mirror."

Under the city gate, two old men looked at the people passing by and said something in a low voice. One of them held an ancient bronze mirror with patterns on it. Every cultivator who entered the city was searched by them in this state.

The people passing by wanted to be angry when they saw the two men's actions, but when the two men released their aura, everyone immediately fell silent.

These two people were actually cultivators in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul.

The man holding the bronze mirror was the old man called "Elder Li". When he saw the old man surnamed Ma next to him with a questioning look on his face, he immediately became dissatisfied and refuted with sharp words.

The old man surnamed Ma couldn't help but hum after hearing this, but he didn't say anything more. As his name suggests, he does have a long face, and his gloomy look gives people a chilling feeling.

"Then why have we been here for so long and still have no news at all? Could it be that he has never been here at all in the past ten years?"

After a long time, the old man named Ma said with an ugly face.

"It's hard to say. After all, it's so easy to find someone in the vast sea of ​​people. However, this Shangxian City is the city with the largest number of people in the Taiyuan Immortal Dynasty. This person is also a casual cultivator. If we say it is the most likely This is the place to catch him." The old man surnamed Li shook his head.

After a moment, he showed a sneer and said: "Having said that, the Wu Taoist is too bad. You and I have only been in seclusion for a few decades and he was killed. It seems that he used to brag about how powerful he was, but in fact he is not that good." Well!"

"That's true, but I heard that the madman who killed the Wu Taoist has reached the middle stage of Nascent Soul, and he also escaped from Senior Brother Nangong's pursuit. If we encounter him, we must be careful. Senior Brother Nangong ordered us to We have to find this person no matter what, but don’t capsize in the gutter." The old man named Ma frowned and said gloomily.

The old man surnamed Li paused, chuckled, and said: "In the past, I didn't dare to say, but in the near future, Shangxian City will hold an auction of exotic treasures, and there will be a replica of the Tongtian Lingbao. It is said that this treasure Although it is a high imitation, it possesses seven or eight points of the spiritual treasure of the Tongtian Lingbao, and its power is almost higher than that of many imitation spiritual treasures known in the world of cultivating immortals. Even monks from various sects will inevitably be tempted by such a treasure. He is so powerful as a casual cultivator. To increase his strength, do you think he will miss it?"

"That makes sense. Since we have been investigating here for ten years, we don't care about a few more days." The old man surnamed Ma nodded and said: "But this is Shangxian City after all. Our investigations over the years have made the Yuan family quite happy. If you complain, this matter is a bit troublesome.”

"What's there to worry about! It's true that Shangxian City is the territory of their Yuan clan, but what we're checking is only outside the city, not inside it. We're not in conflict with them, so what qualifications do they have to care about us?" The old man surnamed Li curled his lips. , said disdainfully.

"No matter what, there's nothing wrong with being careful."

"Don't worry, do you think Mr. Li is really an unreasonable person..."

"..."

As the two talked, the ancient mirror in their hands did not stop checking the people around them, but it seemed that they did not find the person they were looking for.

Ye Chunyang stood in the clouds and looked down at this scene, with ice flashing in his eyes.

He didn't expect that the Qianxu Clan's hand would be so long that it could reach this Upper Immortal City. Moreover, ten years later, Nangong Xie still hadn't given up on tracking him, which really surprised him.

However, these two people came here so blatantly to interrogate the past monks. There was no reason why Yan Chen didn't know about the relationship between Yan Chen and the Yuan family. Under such premise, they even invited themselves here. But what's the evil intention?

Some thoughts flashed through Ye Chunyang's mind, but he quickly suppressed them after careful consideration.

Regardless of what Yan Chen thinks about him, with the other party's Nascent Soul's later cultivation, there is no need to be so troublesome in dealing with him. Thinking of this, the news about Jiang Xin Cao is more likely to be true.

Looking at the two elders of Qianxu Clan under the city gate, Ye Chunyang sneered at the corner of his mouth, transformed into a clone, dissipated, the light slowly fell downwards, and stepped forward.

At this time, his cultivation level also dropped to a lower level, showing himself to be at the early stage of Nascent Soul.

As expected, when he entered the city, the old man surnamed Li raised his mirror to look at him without saying a word. His eyes kept looking at him, and he refused to stop until he finally found nothing unusual.

Ye Chunyang walked quietly into the city with his hands behind his back.

He only wanted to inquire about the whereabouts of Jiangxincao during this trip, which would cause a lot of trouble. He would not be acquainted with these two people.

But it seemed that things were counterproductive. Just as he took a few steps forward, a sharp shout suddenly came from behind.

"Wait!"

Ye Chunyang's face turned cold, but he didn't show any abnormality. He looked back at the two of them and said, "Are you two calling me?"

"That's right! It's you! Just stop, I want to ask you something!"

The old man surnamed Li, with half-closed eyes, strode towards him with a faint air of murder as he walked.

Ye Chunyang's heart sank slightly. Did they see something wrong?

Looking at these two people, Ye Chunyang remained calm, but murderous intent was already brewing in his heart. Anyway, fellow Taoist Wu had already died in his hands. Killing one was killing, and killing two was killing. If something unexpected happened, he would I don't mind killing two more elders of the Qianxu clan and sending them down to reunite with the Wu Tao people.
