Ninth In the World

In Yin Yueshu’s opinion, this was too abnormal. She had clearly seen that Jiu You had gone after Di Jiu and Ling Xiaoshuang. At first, Xuan Yi had said to wait for the two of them here, but Yin Yueshu did not think it was necessary because she was sure that the two of them would be captured and taken back to the Winter Valley by Jiu You. They wanted to know any news on Di Jiu, so they could only wait in the Winter Valley.

What she had not expected was that they would really manage to meet Di Jiu there.

Upon hearing Yin Yueshu, the woman beside her smiled slightly. “Yueshu, I was right. Jiu You can’t do anything to Di Jiu, and we managed to meet him here.”

Upon coming back to her senses, Yin Yueshu still looked at the woman beside her in disbelief and asked, “Xuan Yi, how did you know that Ah Jiu could escape?”

The woman named Xuan Yi answered with a sigh, “Many years ago, when Dao Lord Ning was still a nobody who had not even reached Dao Birth, he escaped from the chase of Primordial Dao Realm’s Man Huishan. Based on what you say, Ah Jiu is the second Dao Lord Ning. Back then, Dao Lord Ning had yet to undergo Dao Modeling, while Ah Jiu is a Dao Birth cultivator. What do you think mere Jiu You could do to a person like that?

“Yueshu, I’m not blaming you. You have experienced such things and made such mistakes. Fortunately, you called me in time. Otherwise…”

Xuan Yi stopped talking, but Yin Yueshu knew very well what she meant. She had despised Dao Lord Ning in the past and thought that he would always obey her. However, she now wanted to become a cultivation partner of an expert like Dao Lord Ning. She was no longer on the same level as him but she was still there.

“Xuan Yi, I’m willing to do it this time.” Yin Yueshu suddenly made up her mind.

Back then, she had been arrogant and had missed the biggest opportunity. She had vowed to seize it no matter what this time. Back then, Xuan YI had not misjudged Dao Lord Ning, so she would not misjudge Di Jiu this time either.

She had even forgotten this automatically. Even though he had been willing at the time, Dao Lord Ning had not taken her seriously. Sometimes, no one could wake up a person living in their own realm.

Xuan Yi nodded before she looked at Di Jiu and said, “Are you Di Jiu? I’m Cen Ruxuan from the Sunken Fish Palace of the Great Simplicity Realm. I believe you definitely know about the Great Simplicity Realm…”

Di Jiu chuckled and interrupted Xuan Yi. “I’m sorry. I really don’t know about the Great Simplicity Realm. Say what you need quickly. I’m in a hurry.”

Cen Ruxuan frowned slightly. She suddenly realized that Di Jiu seemed completely different from Dao Lord Ning. She thought that Di Jiu would talk to her politely and escape by any means. She had never seen someone attack her verbally in a straightforward manner before.

When Yin Yueshu saw Xuan Yi frowning, she quickly sent a voice transmission. “Xuan Yi, he’s like this. He also spoke in this tone to Winter Valley’s Ren Jisha and Grand Elder Jiu You.”

Cen Ruxuan suppressed her unhappiness and slowly responded, “It doesn’t matter that Alchemy Master Di has not heard of the Great Simplicity Realm. In the past, the Great Change Realm was the top realm among the Five Great Realms, and the Great Simplicity Realm was right behind it. Now, the Great Simplicity Realm is entirely worthy of being the top one among the Five Great Realms. Since Dao Lord Ning has recuperated, the Heaven Earth Law in the Great Simplicity Realm has been perfected. It would not be unusual to even reach the third step.

“Today, I invite Alchemy Master Di to visit the Great Simplicity Realm on behalf of the Sunken Fish Palace. I believe that as long as you go to the Sunken Fish Palace, your Alchemy Dao will surely reach the Primordial Dao or you will even become a Primordial Chaos Alchemy Saint. As for attaining the second step, it is as simple as breathing.”

“Thanks, but I’m not interested. Let’s go, Xiaoshuang.” Di Jiu did not hesitate to walk past Cen Ruxuan.

Feeling really furious, Cen Ruxuan raised her hand to grab Di Jiu.

Di Jiu did not even move, but Ling Xiaoshuang slapped her hand over.

Slap! Cen Ruxuan clearly saw Ling Xiaoshuang’s slap approach but just could not avoid it. Her consciousness was all sealed by this space.

Pfft! Cen Ruxuan was sent flying by this slap and spurted out blood in the air before landing on the ground.

At that moment, Cen Ruxuan felt like all the bones in her body were broken. She could not lift her Divine Essence at all, and her Spiritual Sea and Spiritual Force had sunk into stagnation.

Cen Ruxuan was so appalled that her cultivation foundation had been crippled. She hurriedly performed a Qi Circulation once again. Fortunately, her Divine Essence lifted this time without any stagnation.

Cen Ruxuan heaved a sigh of relief. She knew that she was not lucky, but the other party had not killed her. After all, she could have died because of that slap.

If she still could not understand now, she might as well kill herself. Was Ling Xiaoshuang at Dao Transformation? She was clearly an exceptional Dao Transformation expert that did not exist in the entire Great Simplicity Realm.

Cen Ruxuan knew better than anyone where Jiu You had gone. He must have been killed by Ling Xiaoshuang. Ridiculously, she had planned to take away Di Jiu in front of a Dao Integration expert. That was simply suicide.

Di Jiu’s voice echoed right beside Cen Ruxuan’s ears. “Get lost. Don’t appear in front of me again. If Xiaoshuang was not benevolent, you would have died.”

She had either casually abandoned her cultivation partner to hang out with other men or led away an irrelevant person. Di Jiu was extremely disgusted with the Sunken Fish Palace.

Yin Yueshu was stunned for a long time. She had never thought that the female servant, who used to be bullied by people, would be so terrifying after being cured by Di Jiu.

Di Jiu walked over to her and looked at Yin Yueshu coldly while saying, “Since you found the Moon Core and the Sun Core for me, I won’t bother you. However, I have something to tell you. Since you’re married, you should scrupulously keep those vows. Don’t flirt around all day long like a b*tch.”

“You…” Yin Yueshu, who was shocked by Di Jiu’s words, nearly spurted out a trail of blood on the spot from anger. She had never regarded Ren He as her cultivation partner. In other words, Ren He was nothing to her. Thus, how could he qualify to be her cultivation partner?

Even though Di Jiu had called her a b*tch, she could only watch him leave without daring to chase after him.

“Yueshu, let’s leave quickly and return to the Sunken Fish Palace.” Cen Ruxuan, who was pale, stood up, grabbed Yin Yueshu, and rushed out.

…

In addition to the approximate route included in the message that Cai Ji had sent Ling Xiaoshuang, there was only one sentence: I am being chased by the second son of the Nie Clan, Nie Qianzhang.

Ling Xiaoshuang did not know who Nie Qianzhang was, let alone who Di Jiu was. After they left the Great Ultimate Realm, they could only follow the approximate route given by Cai Ji. As for whether they would find it, they could only rely on Heaven or luck.

Di Jiu’s supreme-grade flying divine weapon had yet to be refined. Fortunately, Ling Xiaoshuang had taken back her ring from Jiu You and gotten back her own supreme-grade flying divine weapon.

Di Jiu did not blacksmith in seclusion. He and Ling Xiaoshuang sat on the deck of the flying boat, discussing the Dao and inquiring about Heaven’s Beyond and the void on this side.

Ling Xiaoshuang’s cultivation level was higher than Di Jiu’s and she had more insight. Her understanding of the Dao had given Di Jiu a lot of help. Di Jiu cultivated the Nomological Dao and could clearly explain all the laws in the universe. Therefore, Ling Xiaoshuang gained more from Di Jiu than she gave him.

Time flew very quickly in the void, so two months passed in the blink of an eye. In two months, Di Jiu and Ling Xiaoshuang also met some cultivators. However, no one knew about the Nie Clan. Their only gain was that their respective cultivation had deepened a little.

One day, while the flying boat of Di Jiu and Ling Xiaoshuang was flying in the void, a void castle appeared at the edge of Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force. Immediately, he stood up and pointed in that direction. “Xiaoshuang, let’s go over there.”

Needless to say, Ling Xiaoshuang also saw the void castle.
