Chapter 2712: Chapter 2711: Other Shore Flower Blossoms

Qi Jinchan and Three Yings and Two Yuns exchanged glances, not expecting Long Fei to also know about the Demon Calamity.

Li Yingqiong couldn’t stand Long Fei and bluntly asked, "As the Eastern Emperor, you oversee the Demon Clan. How can the Demon Calamity have nothing to do with you?"

Qi Jinchan coughed slightly, signaling for his junior sister to be more cautious.

Li Yingqiong didn’t care, standing tall as if she had reason on her side.

Long Fei laughed and asked her, "The Jade Emperor governs the Three Realms, does this matter relate to the Jade Emperor as well? Saints created all things, could this matter not be unrelated to Saints as well?"

Li Yingqiong stammered, "You, you’re twisting the concept."

Long Fei said, "You overestimate me. I’m merely a titular Eastern Emperor. The world’s numerous Demon Clans can’t all be under my control. The Demon Calamity is destined by fate, not something I can stop. If you want to blame someone, blame the Heavenly Dao. The Heavenly Dao is unkind, treating everything as straw dogs, that’s all."

"You’re making excuses!"

Li Yingqiong puffed her cheeks, unable to argue with him, struggling to find a counterargument.

"The gift has been delivered, the matter explained, we should return to report."

Qi Jinchan awkwardly bid farewell to Long Fei.

Long Fei nodded, and as they left, he reminded Li Yingqiong, "Miss Li, your killing intent is too strong, you’ll find it hard to escape a death fate in the future. If you are willing to train under me, later living a life of calm and abstaining from worldly affairs, you might avoid this calamity!"

Li Yingqiong thought Long Fei had some ideas for her, blushing as she cursed, "Dream on!"

She looked at Long Fei, suddenly remembered something, and reached out to call, "Where’s my sword?"

"That’s all I have to say, take care, Miss!"

Long Fei shook his head and raised his hand to send out her Ziyi Sword, handing it back to her.

Li Yingqiong took the sword, glared at Long Fei, and hurriedly left with the sword, fearing he might forcibly keep her.

Qi Jinchan and his group dryly laughed, made their courtesies to Long Fei, and followed her to leave.

Little Kirin watching from the side felt a bit annoyed, "Father, why are you so courteous to that woman?"

Lin Yingying then approached with Wang Xiaoya and Lin Shanshan, teasing Little Kirin, "Your father is always this courteous to beautiful women!"

Little Kirin and the others held back their laughter, quickly cupping their fists to bid farewell and leave the mountain.

Long Fei stood up, looking at the three sisters and smiled, "Weren’t you guests at Mount Li?"

"We came back early!"

Lin Yingying rolled her eyes at him, thinking how this guy didn’t even come home to check.

They had been drinking tea in the house earlier, avoiding the embarrassment caused by the crowd, thus didn’t come out to show themselves.

The three were proficient in brewing and pouring tea, curiously asking Long Fei, "We heard from them earlier, did you go to Kunlun Mountains?"

Long Fei nodded.

Lin Yingying said, "Then did you see Chu Feng and them? Those three guys went to Kunlun Mountains and haven’t been heard from for a long time, right?"

Lin Shanshan added, "Yeah, how come Bald Dog and Da Heiniu have returned, but not Elder Brother Chu and them?"

"I went to Kunlun precisely for this matter!"

Long Fei smiled and took out a bloody petal, tossing it into the air. The petal spiraled down, rapidly expanding.

The petal opened outward, revealing three people inside.

It was Chu Feng, Murong Chong, and Wang Jie.

There was an extraordinary aura about them, their eyes closed, seemingly still in contemplation and enlightenment.

Lin Yingying and the others watched with eyes wide open, knowing they must have obtained great fortune to be like this.

Long Fei raised his hand and drew upon celestial phenomena, creating a black vortex above their head.

Within the swirling, gloomy winds howled as if hell lay at its end, letting out a furious roar.

Before long, figures emerged from the vortex, entering the bodies of the three men.

The three shivered violently, and opened their eyes simultaneously.

Long Fei waved his hand, dispersing the vortex in the sky.

The three, Chu Feng, looked around confused, and jumped up exclaimed, "What the heck, where are we?"

Lin Yingying and her group chuckled softly, feeling these three like they had lost their souls.

Long Fei shouted to them, "This is Liangshan Island, you’re home."

Chu Feng and the others returned to their senses after a moment, then laughed joyously, exhaling a sigh with Long Fei and the rest, "Wow, we’ve finally returned."

Wang Jie broke down emotionally, crying and laughing like a woman, "I thought I’d never come back in this lifetime!"

Lin Yingying and the others were puzzled, urgently asking, "What on earth happened to you?"

Chu Feng said, "We don’t really know, felt like our souls were drifting in a place without an owner. Four sides were endless darkness, empty with nothing, wandering without a way out!"

Long Fei had them sit, pouring them tea, and explained, "You reached the end of reincarnation."

"What?"

The three were greatly surprised, exchanging bewildered glances, asking dumbfounded, "What is the end of reincarnation?"

Long Fei said, "Simply put, it’s the Eighteen Layers of Hell."

The three sipped tea to suppress their shock, still somewhat befuddled.

Wang Jie said, "We were lost in Kunlun Mountain, how did we end up in the Eighteen Layers of Hell?"

Long Fei raised his hand, took the strange blood flower, explaining to them, "This is called the Three Lives Flower, also known as the Other Shore Flower. Usually found only in Hell, it can also blossom in certain Yin-heavy places. This flower is connected to the Netherworld, can send a person’s soul to the Other Shore, which is the reincarnation cycle. You lost yourself in reincarnation, thus couldn’t find your way out."

As he spoke, the blood flower in his hand began to wither, finally turning into a handful of dust and scattering away.

Chu Feng and the others blinked, stunned, "We were searching for fortune in Kunlun cave dwellings, stumbled into this flower, and lost all senses, didn’t expect to be thrown into reincarnation."

Murong Chong and Wang Jie felt a chill down their spines, realizing how close they were to misfortune.

Long Fei smiled and told them, "Nonetheless, it’s also a sort of fortune. You were in reincarnation for so long without your souls dispersing, instead strengthening significantly, immensely benefiting your cultivation. This flower naturally gathers Yin, forging your body with the blood qi of Witch-Demon Tribes. After this, your cultivation speed should be twice that of ordinary people."

"Is this considered fortune?"

Chu Feng and the others rejoiced upon hearing, all raising their cups to toast Long Fei.

They knew if it wasn’t for Long Fei’s assistance, they might have ended up as fertilizer for the Other Shore Flower.

Lin Shanshan’s eyes shifted, suggesting, "If this flower has such effects, why doesn’t brother-in-law bring us to find a few, helping us break through faster?"

Long Fei laughed, "Everything happens for a reason; one cannot force it. Chu Feng and the others were unharmed, coincidentally because they have Witch-Demon Tribes’ bloodline and the protection of the Chaos Green Lotus Seed I provided. Otherwise, their souls would have dispersed and their bodies devoured by the Other Shore Flower."

"Brother Long said it just right, indeed so!"

The three nodded, recalling the ordeal, still feeling lingering fear.

If they hadn’t within the Kunlun Mountain’s various hidden caves consumed numerous pills, refined much Essence Blood, and obtained significant opportunities to strengthen their souls and bodies beforehand.

If trapped in the Other Shore Flower for a day, they would not have survived.
