Chapter 473 - Onis Passing By. Ye Huaian Shocked.
Chapter 473: Onis Passing By. Ye Huaian Shocked.
Everything was destroyed with no exception!
The entire Black Wind Canyon was covered in the shadow of this finger.
Along with a loud ‘vroom’, a powerful Qi spread out like waves, causing the world to lose its color. Half of the canyon by the side cracked and turned into a flat land!
After a moment, the finger disappeared.
The gentle wind blew by and the world regained its peace. Everything felt like a dream as if nothing happened.
The crowd woke up from their shock with difficulty. They gasped.
Gasp…
So shocking! So terrifying!
The Power of Heaven!
The finger earlier was equivalent to the Power of Heaven!
It was other-worldly powerful!
“The power of an Immortal! That was definitely the power of an Immortal!”
“How did this Dryad offend an Immortal? And Immortal attacked it.”
“We’re saved! We’re saved by an Immortal! How magical!”
The crowd was excited after surviving this. They went from despair to shock to excitement. This feeling was beyond words, they were all very excited.
“Immortal! I met an Immortal!”
Ye Huaian cried out loudly. He went on his knees and started bowing at the sky.
“Daddy! Immortal Daddy! Please let me kneel before you to thank you for saving my life! Please, take me! I’ll be a good son!”
By the side, a faked hoarse and aged voice mocked, “Good son, to show your sincerity, call yourself a pig three times!”
Ye Huaian was too excited. He did not hesitate at all. “I’m a pig! I’m a pig! I’m a pig!”
“Ha!”
A laughter was heard.
Ye Huaian frowned. He stood up. “What’re you laughing at! If my Daddy didn’t step in, you’d have all been dead!”
He waved it off and pestered, “Let’s go, continue the journey. This is now the Black Wind Canyon, we should call it an Immortal Canyon in the future.”
The caravan resumed their journey.
The crowd suddenly became talkative. They started discussing the finger with admiration. They were all very impressed.
Ye Huaian saw that Li Nianfan and Nanan did not seem to care. It was as if they were uninterested in the topic of Immortals. Ye Huaian found it strange. He asked, “Boss, that was an Immortal! Aren’t you excited?”
Li Nianfan nodded. “Yeah, I’m excited. But so what?”
Ye Huaian looked at Li Nianfan blankly for a moment. Then, he nodded and said, “Right, you’re all ordinary people, you won’t feel what we cultivators feel. Becoming an Immortal’s our ultimate aim!”
Following that, he asked suspiciously, “Boss, the Immortal’s finger… It can’t be related to you, can it?”
Li Nianfan smiled. “You think so?”
Ye Huaian shook his head. He said, “Unlikely, don’t mind me. I was just guessing.”
Nanan was a child and so she could not be an Immortal. Along the journey, Li Nianfan seemed ordinary. He acted like an ordinary man, so it was unlikely for him to be an Immortal as well.
He was simply asking.
He asked because Li Nianfan and Nanan appeared as if they were unafraid of anything. They were either ignorant or powerful. Furthermore, the likelihood of an Immortal who happened to pass by the Black Wind Canyon and saved them all was too little. All of them had shown their power earlier, only Li Nianfan and Nanan had not shown any. In addition, they seemed as if they were unafraid of anything…
This made Ye Huaian suspicious.
“But it’s impossible! The chance is almost zero!” Ye Huaian could not help slapping his face. “They’re probably just two ignorant siblings.”
He did not speak for the rest of the journey.
After passing the Black Wind Canyon, they got closer to Gaolao Village.
Another half a day had gone by and the sky was gradually turning darker. Ye Huaian ran over to tell Li Nianfan that Gaolao Village was right in front. They would arrive by tomorrow morning.
The night was darkening. Ye Huaian and the group were all cultivators, so they could go on a few days without sleeping. Li Nianfan closed his eyes and fell asleep. While Nanan sat by his side, she was yawning, feeling bored.
To Li Nianfan, the time spent during this journey was very relaxing. As for Nanan, it was boring. She was active and always liked to challenge powerful demons or others.
Ding!
Meanwhile, a bell was heard. It sounded rather ear-stabbing so late at night.
This made the forest eerier than before. A strange Qi was appearing around them.
Ye Huaian cried out in a low voice. His voice was very anxious, “Stop the carriage! Stop it!”
The carriage stopped.
Under the autumn night sky, the leaves started flying from the ground. Along with the bell, they circulated the forest.
Nanan asked curiously, “What is it?”
Li Nianfan woke up from his sleep. He looked around.
Ye Huaian said quickly, “Don’t speak, it’s the dark soldiers passing by.”
He appeared as if he knew a lot of things. The truth was this was his first time meeting those soldiers. His face had stiffened and he was very nervous. He dared not breathe.
Nanan asked, “What do you mean?”
“The Underworld sent soldiers up to take people!” Ye Huaian pursed his lips. He dared not speak much but he was afraid that Nanan was ignorant and might do anything shocking. He had to bite his tongue and explain, “This is rare. Normally, the souls are automatically sent back to the Underworld. However, there are unique souls with deeper hatred, sins, or demon kings that require the Onis to take them down!”
Nanan nodded. She then asked curiously, “I see, will we meet Black and White Impermanence?”
Ye Huaian jumped in terror. He begged with a shivering voice, “Please, my lord, I beg you to not speak! Just don’t speak until they’re all gone!”
Who was Black and White Impermanence? Those were the heads of all Onis!
Now that the Onis were passing by, this girl was mentioning the name of Black and White Impermanence! Was she asking for death?
Any one Oni was an Immortal! She would put them all in danger!
Meanwhile, under the night sky, five figures gradually appeared. They were walking toward them from afar.
Instead of walking, they made no sound as they walked. Only the sound of wind blowing.
“Black…Black and White Impermanence!?”
Ye Huaian looked at the black and white figures. He was dumbfounded with his mouth open. He could not feel his tongue.
This girl jinxed it! They happened to bump into Black and White Impermanence!
He was terrified. When he saw the Onis coming in his direction, he was carefully turning his carriage away to make way for the Onis.
The others were all terrified. They all lowered their heads and dared not to look.
After all, Black and White Impermanence were directly related to death, who was not afraid of them?
The movement of the carriage attracted Black and White Impermanence’s attention. However, they did not seem to care. They did not care about the things in this ordinary realm. They were simply glancing over.
However, with just a glance, the two of them jolted. Their faces changed abruptly and they changed direction. They were coming toward the caravan.
This made Ye Huaian and his men tremble so hard. Their heads were about to explode and they were all shivering.
Meanwhile, they could not help imagining a series of things happening. Perhaps Black and White Impermanence saw them and went, “Oh, this person is running out of time, too. Let’s bring him away as well.”
That would be bad! So…stimulating!
Luckily, Black and White Impermanence ignored them all. They greeted Li Nianfan with all friendliness, “Lord Saint, long time no see.”
Gasp…
Ye Huaian and the group gasped. Their eyes popped out as they almost fainted from the shock.
Lord Saint!?
Oh, my Mommy!
What kind of existence did they have in their carriage all along!?
Even Black and White Impermanence looked up to him!?
“What’s the matter?”
Black and White Impermanence felt disturbed from the staring. They raised an eyebrow and said with an unpleasant tone, “Do you all not want to breathe anymore?”
“Sorry, we’re sorry!”
Ye Huaian and his men covered their mouths and crawled to the side. They continued to shiver.
They were pitiable, small, and helpless.
“Greetings to Black and White Impermanence.” Li Nianfan returned the gesture. He smiled and said, “Did you two came up personally to bring someone back?”
Behind Black and White Impermanence, there were two more Onis. Between them, there was an elderly man handcuffed by the Onis. He was not struggling and did not scream. He seemed calm.
“This is the master of the Gaojia Village. He brought peace to the people with some merits, also…”
Bai Wuchang halted before he said, “Lord Saint must’ve heard about the Gaolao Village’s uniqueness. We came here to have a look.”
Li Nianfan asked strangely, “Because of Zhu Bajie? Perhaps Zhu Bajie really did stay in Gaolao Village back in the day?”
Bai Wuchang sighed, “Possibly. However, we’re not as powerful and didn’t find anything.”
Hei Wuchang said, “To be honest with you, we speculated that perhaps the Dinghai Needle and Nine Tooth Rake of Zhu Bajie were hidden in the Gaolao Village. However, this is just speculation. So many years have passed, all the treasures might have turned to dust.”
“Dinghai Needle, Nine Tooth Rake…”
Li Nianfan could not help feeling excited. These were the two well-known Godly Weapons! Even if he could not meet Zhu Bajie in person, it would be nice to see his weapons!
Wukong handed the Dinghai Needle to Zhu Bajie before he died. After that, Zhu Bajie brought his weapons and this Dinghai Needle to Gaolao Village. This did make sense!
If this was true, his trip to the Gaolao Village would be worthwhile!
Ba Wuchang asked, “Perhaps Lord Saint came here for this as well?”
Li Nianfan nodded and smiled, “Yeah, I’m coming over to have a look.”
When the elderly man heard that Li Nianfan was going to Gaolao Village, his eyes jolted. He looked at Li Nianfan profoundly. He was rather emotional as he repeated, “It’s my fault, it’s my fault…”
Li Nianfan found it strange.
Though Black and White Impermanence did not find it strange. They explained, “Please, don’t be alarmed. His soul has left him and his consciousness is entangled by his obsession. We’ll bring him down with us now.”
Bai Wuchang made a gesture. “Lord Saint, we’ll go down now. Please, excuse us.”
Li Nianfan nodded. He said, “Alright, goodbye.”
