Chapter 884: Chapter 357: Ride Again? And those Heavenly Gods have also taken a fancy to what’s inside. Did you see the Burial Sky Divine Fire burning on me before? That’s the advance payment given to me by the Demon God Zangtian. From this, one can infer how perilous this struggle at the Cloud Sea Immortal Palace is, right?” “I know.” Ji Qianqian’s eyes revealed a sharp light, meeting Chu Xisheng’s gaze: “Two days ago, Miss already informed me about this matter. However, as the Daoist attendant of my lord, how could I shirk back when my lord is in danger? Isn’t the duty of us Daoist attendants to be protectors on behalf of my lord?” She then bowed in submission before Chu Xisheng: “My resolve is firm, please, my lord, fulfill it!” Chu Xisheng’s face darkened. Ji Qianqian’s words were obviously not entirely truthful, clearly, she wasn’t fully tainted with black yet. She was already at the Fourth Grade Lower level of cultivation. Without the court’s support, how could Ji Qianqian infiltrate the Cloud Sea Immortal Palace? Chu Xisheng also recalled Ji Qianqian’s distraction three days ago. He immediately opened the Martial Arts Treasure Vault, reluctantly spent a thousand Blood Essence Points, and exchanged for a ‘Blackening Card (Third Grade),’ marking it as used by Ji Qianqian. However, on the surface, Chu Xisheng remained composed, smiling gently: “Stand up, I will consider this matter carefully.” The current plan is to discuss with the Coastal Zhou Family, asking them to relinquish a spot. This matter is so significant that it’s beyond what the Coastal Zhou Family can handle. Their Sixth Grade experts would probably not even amount to dust within the Cloud Sea Immortal Palace, bringing them in would only be a burden. But Ji Qianqian in front of him was more troublesome than a burden. Ji Qianqian was oblivious to Chu Xisheng’s wariness, unaware that her mind had been tainted again. She prostrated herself with resolute intentions in her eyes. She had to make a choice. This ‘undercover’ mission could not be so indefinite anymore. It was time for a showdown between her and Chu Xisheng, with the location being the Cloud Sea Immortal Palace. ※※※※ After being notified by Ji Qianqian, Chu Yunyun and Lu Luanti promptly arrived. They knew Chu Xisheng was receiving the divine favor of a Demon God. But it was ‘Burial Sky,’ the most harmless among all Demon Gods, aside from the Lord of Ten Thousand Soldiers ‘Li Tan’. The whole process of the divine favor was supposedly quite safe. Their main concern was that Chu Xisheng’s physical body might not withstand the burning of Burial Sky Divine Fire, or that his cultivation might undergo abnormal changes during the divine favor, so they took turns guarding and protecting Chu Xisheng. Seeing Chu Xisheng unharmed, the two women were relieved. Lu Luanti even exclaimed in admiration: “You have no idea how intense the Burial Sky Divine Fire was on your body at the time! It almost burned this building down. A black pillar of fire shot up to the sky, attracting your Sect Master and Lu Shouyang over. The Master of the Disciplinary Hall thought you had done something wrong and were about to fall into demonic ways. The flames then burned for two days straight, Burial Sky truly regards you highly, almost like a son.” Chu Yunyun nodded slightly, somewhat in agreement. She also possessed the Burial Sky Bloodline and received Burial Sky’s divine favor. But despite battling in the Northern for over a decade, she had never received such favor from ‘Burial Sky’ like this. Rather, Demon God Li Tan was quite fond of her. Chu Xisheng smiled bitterly: “This is merely the advance payment from that Demon God. If I want to secure it, I have to work for Him.” Otherwise, this divine favor, once bestowed, could also be retracted. Lu Luanti’s expression changed slightly: “Then did He tell you what exactly He wants from inside the Cloud Sea Immortal Palace?” At this moment, everyone in the pavilion perked up their ears. Even Zhou Liangchen looked at Chu Xisheng curiously. A section of Blood Pine Branch extended in from outside the window. This pine branch was from none other than the Wood Sword Immortal’s avatar beside it. Chu Xisheng thought that this Wood Sword Immortal’s network among the Gods seemed lacking, being so out of touch with the news. “I don’t know.” Chu Xisheng tapped his forehead: “Burial Sky likely sealed this information within my Primordial Spirit to prevent leakage, only unlocking it at the right moment.” The section of the Blood Pine Branch immediately retracted, and the others all revealed disappointed expressions. Chu Yunyun stood up: “It’s good that you’re all right, brother, I’m off to practice spells.” She was actually restoring her cultivation. She intended to use the power of the ‘Blood Pool Crystal’ to quickly restore her cultivation to Fifth Grade Upper before entering the Immortal Palace. And just as everyone gradually left, a white light and shadow fell from the beam, landing atop Chu Xisheng. It was Bai Xiaozhao, looking at Ji Qianqian who had already walked into the courtyard outside the window: “Brother, I feel that Sister Qianqian’s situation seems a bit off.” Chu Xisheng raised an eyebrow: “How exactly is it off?” Of course, Ji Qianqian was acting suspiciously. At this moment, this woman might be contemplating stabbing him in the back and selling him out to the court. Chu Xisheng sensed a great crisis. He concentrated intently on the virtual screen before him. The Blood Essence Points count had already risen to 130,000. His draw against Purple Eyebrow Heavenly Monarch Shui Ruge was evidently rapidly spreading. Chu Xisheng was ready to reluctantly use 10,000 Blood Essence Points these days to continue redeeming ‘Blackening Cards’ until he had completely corrupted this woman. Come to think of it, Ji Qianqian’s mind was indeed sturdy and resilient. Despite using so many Near Ink Taint cards, he still couldn’t thoroughly subdue Ji Qianqian. “You don’t know, just now when you were in meditation, Sister Qianqian sat looking at you for a long time.”
