The wisp of divine sense could help him to listen to the conversation between Bu Mingfeng and Lin Wuxing, and it did not require the consumption of magic qi, so the people in the room would not discover it.

It seemed that Bu Mingfeng had just entered the sect today, “I wonder why the sect master called me over in such a hurry?”

“Why? You still don’t know?”

“Is the sect master asking about that little elder…?”

Lin Wuhen had tried to keep his voice calm, but he still failed to control the heaviness in it: “What did you tell me when you came back then? You said that the person was dead! Then who is that person now? A ghost? Is he a ghost cultivator instead?”

Bu Mingfeng’s voice was cautious: “This… matter is indeed puzzling to me as well. I checked his breath and yuanshen before leaving that day, and it had indeed disappeared. He had chosen to explode himself rather than hand over his dantian. The demon cultivators were nearby at the time, and thinking that a dead body would soon be covered by the snow, I did not dare to continue to deal with the corpse. When I finished reporting to you, I went into seclusion, and it wasn’t until I came out today that I found out he was not dead and had taken on a disciple.”

When Bu Tianhan heard this, he knew that the person they were talking about was Gu Xiyu.

Or rather, it was Tai Ling.

This explained why Gu Xiyu had access to this body, the original one had been killed by someone from his own sect.

Bu Tianhan, who was hidden outside the courtyard, leaned his back against the cold wall and sneered.

No matter how many years had passed, people were still just as selfish and horrible. They wore human skin, but the devil lived in their hearts.

He wondered why such people practiced orthodox ways. If the means were so cruel, why not just enter the demonic path and leave it at that?

The conversation in the room paused for a moment before he heard Lin Wuhen’s voice again: “Forget it, it looks like he doesn’t remember anything. I even punished him for the matter of Bu Tianhan, but he didn’t resist, so let’s observe him for a while.”

Bu Tianhan listened with a slight pause, wondering what the punishment was for. Was it because of the words he put out there at the time?

He lowered his eyes and stared at the glowing panel that suddenly jumped out at him, thinking that since Gu Xiyu had chosen to fight against him, he should take the blame for this.

Lin Wuhen asked again, “He can’t do anything there for the time being, so who will take his place for the time being? My cultivation has stagnated for a while now, and that Second Elder even unintentionally mentioned it when talking to me today. I can’t let the others notice the abnormality as well.”

“Don’t worry, I got one for the sect master long ago. I’ve already disposed of the person, and this is the spiritual element taken from him.”

“Hehehe, sect master, the set of techniques I shared with you are not bad, right?”

Hearing this, Bu Tianhan suddenly laughed.

So that was how it was.

Bu Mingfeng and Lin Wuxian were probably talking about the evil technique that had taken away part of his spiritual essence back then. It seemed that Bu Mingfeng had obtained them from somewhere, so if his potential was insufficient, just steal someone else’s to make up for it. The gap would certainly not be filled, but it would be similar to washing the yuanshen, except that the materials for washing the yuanshen are hard to find. This involved stealing someone else’s talent and overlaying it on oneself, adding a little bit to it.

Judging from their decision to watch Tai Ling, it should be that the clearer the aura, the more useful it is to them. In this world, who dared to compare their talents with those who practiced the emotionless dao, and compare the density of their yuanshen?

Having grasped this key information from these two, Bu Tianhan quietly left the boundaries of the Tiansu Immortal Sect. Before he went out to cause trouble and remind the people of the continent not to live too comfortably, he remembered the hook jade that Gu Xiyu had given him.

Gu Xiyu said he would come to his rescue no matter where he was. Was it true ……?

In the years of being constantly hunted, killed, and dying again and again, he had long seen through human nature. Compared to true feelings, the only thing that can contain all ‘human feelings’ is profit. People are selfish, no one will give up everything for anyone. The word “sincerity” was easy to write, but the most difficult thing to obtain.

But he and Gu Xiyu had only known each other for a short time, and it was right for Gu Xiyu to be selfish if it came to him. He just felt he should teach this outsider a lesson, so that he would know that under the laws of this world, one should not promise what one cannot do.

———-

At the opposite end of the diameter at the end of the sky, was a place called the Cape of the Sea. Like the end of the sky, it was not really the end of the sea, but rather an island somewhere in the sea. The island was large and had a unique ecology. Everything was black, from the sand to the rocks, trees, and grass.

Because it was mysterious, many daring cultivators went there once upon a time to explore; after all, rewards and risks went hand in hand. The more dangerous it was, the more precious the resources there. But slowly, only 10% of those who went there were able to return, and all of that 10%% were seriously injured and had a hard time recovering. It was a place where even some of the great powers of the continent had gone and never returned.

Since then, no one has dared to go to this place for a while.

Even though he had been there once before, he only wandered around the outskirts of the island. There were indeed many ferocious beasts there, and they were all very powerful. He also found that the closer he got to the center of the island, the more his spiritual energy would be depleted, and the longer he stayed in that place, the weaker his body would become.

Bu Tianhan gripped the hook jade hanging around his neck and narrowed his eyes. He didn’t mind risking another trip there for the sake of Gu Xiyu.

Of course, he was not stupid enough to go there just to see if Gu Xiyu would come to his rescue. He arrived at the outer domain of the End of the Sea, took off the hooked jade around his neck, and made a signal to Gu Xiyu to ask him for help; then, without bothering to see whether he had any subsequent response, he threw it towards the depths of the End of the Sea and left the place without looking back.

He did not go back to the Tiansu Immortal Sect immediately, but followed his plan and wandered around the continent, doing what he usually did: killing those he didn’t like or who had a grudge against him and not sparing their dantians.

It was only after half a month of this that he returned to the mountain peak where Gu Xiyu of the Tiansu Immortal Sect was located.

When he returned, Lu Cheng was practicing his sword outside his house. Lu Cheng seemed to have a great interest in the sword dao, and after reading the book Gu Xiyu had given him, his eyes lit up, and he realized that the dao’s techniques were more in line with his ideas, so he immediately devoted himself to the practice.

When he saw him coming back, Lu Cheng’s eyes were filled with shock. He immediately put away the sword in his hand, came to him, and grabbed him by the shoulder, asking angrily, “Xie Xing, where have you been? Didn’t I tell you not to run around? You’ve only just started cultivating, and you don’t know anything yet. Do you know how dangerous it is out there?”

Bu Tianhan dodged Lu Cheng’s eager and caring eyes and let him check him from head to toe. He looked around but didn’t see the figure in white, so he asked, “Where is Master?”

Lu Cheng gave him an exasperated glare and said, “Master is not here.”

Bu Tianhan gave a slight pause, his eyes finally meeting again and asking, “Where did he go?”

Lu Cheng was about to reply when his eyes suddenly fell behind him. Bu Tianhan turned to look around and saw that the person he was asking about had just returned, and judging from the direction, he should have come from the end of the main peak.

Gu Xiyu had already noticed him before he landed and did not move immediately after getting down from his flying sword, only gazing at him with eyes that were too calm and without any ripples. Perhaps it was because the sun was so strong today that the complexion on Gu Xiyu’s face looked a few shades whiter than before he left, but there was not much difference except that he didn’t seem to have much energy.

The look in Gu Xiyu’s eyes was inexplicably oppressive, and Bu Tianhan looked at him with the same unblinking gaze, not saying anything or taking the initiative to apologize. At that moment, another person came after him from where Gu Xiyu had come, seemingly one of the inner disciples of the sect. Only then did the man in white withdraw his gaze and talk softly with the next person.

Bu Tianhan also moved his eyes away from him and silently gave a soft laugh in his heart.

Bu Tianhan, what else were you expecting?

Lu Cheng saw that he did not say anything, treating all his painstaking chanting like air. Thinking that his master would teach his junior brother a lesson later, he started to tell him other things: “It’s good that you are alright, master, and I thought you had met some trouble outside.”

Lu Cheng saw him look back at Gu Xiyu and the other senior and said, “But your return is really coincidental, so you can go with us to that secret realm.”

Bu Tianhan’s brows knitted lightly, “What secret realm?”

Lu Cheng smiled, “It is the legendary realm of extreme evil, the place called the End of the Sea. The entrance to the secret realm that has never been seen before suddenly appeared near that island, and I heard that it was discovered by our master.”

When Bu Tianhan heard the words “End of the Sea,” his eyelids jumped, and he abruptly looked back at Lu Cheng. The latter was still explaining to him enthusiastically, “Master had been in retreat during this period of time, I don’t know why he suddenly went to the End of the Sea, but he didn’t say much to me or the people of the Immortal Sect about the specific matter, he only took the initiative to report the discovery once he returned.”

“Fortunately, that secret realm is in a place beyond the End of the Sea. Although it was the master’s fenshen that was injured, a big part of one’s cultivation is needed to send it out.” Lu Cheng said, and his tone suddenly became somewhat sad: “I heard the people of the sect say that Master’s fenshen was directly destroyed during his retreat, and even the cultivation allocated to it was destroyed. How long do you think it would take to get it back?”

*Fenshen is like a clone.

Bu Tianhan’s thoughts became chaotic as he listened, and he murmured, “…… He really went to the End of the Sea?”

“Yes, I just made some medicinal soup for Master, I was waiting for him to come back so he could drink it. Master keeps saying that he is fine, but I can see that he doesn’t look well. How can he be fine after being so badly injured?” When Lu Cheng said this, his tone suddenly became angry again: “But that great demon, Bu Tianhan, still wants to cause trouble everywhere and drag Master into it!”

Hearing his name, Bu Tianhan’s thoughts were pulled back, and he asked, “And what does it have to do with Bu Tianhan?” Could it be that Gu Xiyu told the public that he had set him up?

Lu Cheng’s expression was a bit strange. He glanced at Gu Xiyu in the distance to make sure his attention was not on them, before moving slightly closer to him and saying, “I only found out from the sect master’s daughter yesterday that after the previous incident where Bu Tianhan had caused so many deaths, the sect master said that if Bu Tianhan killed another person outside after that, he would be punished. “

“Master was summoned over this morning, and I heard that the great demon has been killing a lot of people outside again this time, so I don’t know how many lashes he got this time.” The more Lu Cheng said, the more his heart ached for Gu Xiyu. He raised his hand and patted his junior brother, who had a somewhat surprised and stunned expression, and then he warned with the temper of a senior brother, “I will continue to brew the medicine for Master first. Remember to apologize to Master properly. He is already having a hard time, you must not cause him any more trouble.”

After Lu Cheng finished speaking, he went back to the kitchen, leaving little Bu Tianhan standing outside for a long time, not knowing whether he had listened to his words or not.

Bu Tianhan was in a very complicated mood at the moment, and what surprised him the most was that Gu Xiyu actually went to the End of the Sea. Although it was a fenshen, a fenshen had the ability to control the sword and bring him back home, so if he was really lost, it could have found him and brought him back as planned. If it encountered a problem that it could not handle but had to be solved, it could immediately summon the main body to its location to help with the retreat.

His first reaction upon learning of this was one of doubt.

Gu Xiyu was not the real Tai Ling, was he just as simple in nature as the original one? The End of the Sea was a place of no return, not to mention that he sent his fenshen. Why would he go to this extent for the sake of a newly accepted disciple? If Lu Cheng had been the one to ask for help, would he have done the same?

As he pondered, Gu Xiyu, who had finished talking at some point, walked up to him. At a closer look, it was more evident that his face was not right, obviously weaker than before he left, and even his aura was weaker by several layers.

It could be said that with Gu Xiyu’s current state, he could not restrain him even if he possessed the techniques that could completely restrain him. In other words, he would not be able to suppress him like he did last time. This meant that Gu Xiyu’s ability to defend himself was much weaker, and even if he had many spirit stones and pills and even precious medicinal pills to help him recover, it would still take a long time to make up for the lost cultivation.

He thought that Gu Xiyu had come over to reprimand him.

Bu Tianhan clenched his fist and still did not speak.

He had just set up this man, caused him to lose so much cultivation and get injured, and he had to get punished because of Bu Tianhan’s deeds. His heart must be full of anger now, and the timing of his return would be a perfect reason for him to punish him heavily and give vent to his anger.

However, he waited for a long time but the scolding words did not fall, nor did he feel the expected pain of being beaten with a stick or a whip.

The man in white simply held out his hand towards him, a chain clutched tightly in his fisted palm. At the other end of the chain was a cold, purple hooked jade.

It looked exactly the same as the one he had thrown at the End of the Sea.

Bu Tianhan’s pupils shrank, and he looked up at Gu Xiyu with disbelief.

Gu Xiyu’s deep and beautiful eyes were flooded with a layer of anger, and he realized that one did not necessarily have to be hysterical to be angry, but could also be elegant.

“This should be the last time.” Gu Xiyu finally said his first words.

With that, Bu Tianhan realized that the anger in his eyes was not because he had been cheated and played with or that he had been implicated by ‘Bu Tianhan’ and suffered a punishment.

“If you lose it ever again, don’t appear in front of me again in this life.”
