Chapter 1711 - 1021: She Is the Sword?

"I am not affiliated with Shura’s people. We each take what we need, but there’s no token involved. As for your conflict with her and the agreement with Shura, I won’t mediate. I came to you only to exchange information about the whereabouts of Mountain-Knocking Guest from the battle years ago."

The Ancestor of Thousand Buddhas’ eyes flickered, and finally, he said, "I only know... he isn’t dead yet, and from that battle years ago, most masters died on the battlefield. His trace is unknown, and even that battlefield has been sealed off, now no one knows...."

"Ring."

The Ancestor of Thousand Buddhas’ eyes deepened.

"Is this your problem, or Lord Asura’s problem?"

"Both."

"Dragon Ape, Dragon Ape, could there possibly be anyone stronger and more capable than the dragon and ape to obtain it?"

The woman was silent for a moment, then frowned slightly, and turned to leave.

After the man and woman left, the Ancestor of Thousand Buddhas muttered to his clone, "Can’t get the Polar Ice Burst in hand... it seems the ring in Ying Yuan’s hand is indeed fake. If it were real, wouldn’t its might be even more earth-shattering, much stronger than Polar Ice Burst..."

As Jhiang Chenyu walked out of the Ancestor of Thousand Buddhas’ temporary nest, she happened to encounter Tu Su’s return. Tu Su and his disciples were surprised to see someone with such a dark aura, retreating to the side. Tu Su took a startling glance and noticed the other party looked at him with a chilling gaze.

He had never seen such splendid and stunning black pupils, nor such a demonically dark and intense gaze.

In that glance, he felt as if his soul was being stripped away...

A moment later, he collapsed onto the ground.

Watching the man and woman disappear from sight.

But... it seemed a piece of memory was missing.

"Ice Gleam.... Mr. Sui? As always...."

Jhiang Chenyu turned her palm, crushing memory fragments into dust.

She gazed at the sky lightly saying, "There are spies from Thousand Buddhas, they are also from the Thousand Buddhas lineage... it’s Ye Zixu... at the High Wall of Ice Gleam."

"Should I follow him?" Du Meng asked quietly.

"Forget it, my target isn’t the ring,... it’s the sword, there’s no need to face her again... but Mountain-Knocking Guest crafted the ring to find the sword.... where the ring is, it is where he is."

Du Meng nodded, then dissipated into black smoke.

It’s as though... he wasn’t human after all.

Jhiang Chenyu extended her hand, her palm withered and black, like black metal...

"For so many years, eventually I became like you."

"Jun Yuqing"

Over by the High Wall of Ice Gleam, Ye Zixu withdrew his senses, contacting Sui Yi.

"Sui Yi, I saw her."

"Jhiang Chenyu"

Sui Yi put down his pen, "Did you see Thousand Buddhas?"

Ye Zixu revealed their conversation and added, "It seems she knows I’m here.... purposely glanced at me."

Sui Yi heard the oddity in Ye Zixu’s words, and smiled slightly, "If she didn’t explicitly say anything, that means she’s not in the same faction as Thousand Buddhas, and doesn’t want to confront me at this moment... So her goal shouldn’t be the ring, maybe something else..."

Something else... is there anything else?

Sui Yi knew Shura and God’s Jasper both want the Arrow of the Witch Emperor, even more than the Emperor’s Vessel, but if Jhiang Chenyu has another goal...

Then it must be related to Jun Yuqing.

And that Mountain-Knocking Guest....

After the Three Great Yuan Spirits’ destructive battle, the greatest creator of history?

Which race do they truly belong to?

At the High Wall of Ice Gleam, Ye Zixu had already finished his retreat. He stood by the ice block, ending the contact, and turned to look at the Wooden Baby Court, seeing Green Bean bringing a box of pastries over.

"Big Brother Ye, this is what I just made with Actress Sister, saved a box for you."

Ye Zixu took it, and suddenly saw that on the Cherry Tree’s water stage..... Xue Piao Ling gazed at him.

He suddenly recalled Sui Yi mentioning the Salamander.... seemingly right inside that small house.

No sound or breath.

But is it truly dead?

Or could it be, he is Mountain-Knocking Guest.

On the day of the Transit Festival, Purple Sky was filled with singing and dancing, everywhere a splendorous array of treasures and resources from various Small Fragmented Jade Worlds could be seen, many cultivators came and went in the vast Purple Sky City, Sui Yi received an invitation.

It was an invitation to attend the celebration.

With her current reputation, she indeed could receive hospitality in the Government District.

And Wen Ji and Zhi Wen were also among the invitees, inviting Sui Yi to go along...

The largest and most famous place for singing and dancing in Purple Sky City is Parrot Isle.

Speaking of Parrot Isle, it’s actually a dance water stage, and since the range is quite large and specifically used for song and dance celebrations, it was named Parrot Isle.

On this day, it seemed that everyone from Purple Sky had come to witness from both sides of the river.

And as honored guests, Sui Yi and the others could be positioned on the spiral water viewing platforms on both sides of the river.

Simply crossing the transparent crystal bridge extending over the water is all it takes.

Of course, across the riverside, one can also walk to the middle of Parrot Isle.
