HEAVENLY DAO RANK: I WAS EXPOSED AS A SWORD GOD
Chapter 86: The Haunting Ghost
Shan Ruoshui's arrival made more laughter at Li Yu's residence.
Li Yu did not expect that the female sect master of the Heavenly Water Pavilion who had always been cold to any man was such a lively and active girl when she was young.
Come to think of it, it's understandable.
After all, every goddess was probably a fun girl in her youth.
For the past few days, Shan Ruoshui had temporarily stayed in Li Yu's room.
The matchbox was enough space for him to sleep with his abilities. However, the guest room was empty. Moreover, the planned spirit herb garden was behind Li Yu's courtyard, where the Daoist temple vegetable garden used to be located.
The lighting conditions are good, and the soil is fertile. With the Ancient Dao Fortune Tree planted, the location was most suitable as a spirit herb garden.
Therefore, Shan Ruoshui would stay in Li Yu's residence for a while and start trying to plant spirit herbs.
Li Yu did not know anything about the spirit herb plantation. Fortunately, Li Qingyun was knowledgeable.
Shan Ruoshui was also very intelligent. He immediately understood whatever he was taught, and he had even more amazing memorization abilities.
Therefore, Li Qingyun had only taught him once, and she already knew the technique of planting most spirit herbs like the back of her hand.
On this day, Ji Qinglan found Li Yu and said that Ji Wanjie had disappeared.
"He left?" Li Yu was a little surprised. Why do people disappear for no reason?
“I searched everywhere. All the junior brothers also said that they did not see him. Plus, someone said that he didn't see my Ninth Brother before going to bed last night! Ji Qinglan was a bit worried.
However, Li Yu was in no hurry as she checked the student management interface in the system.
When he discovered Ji Wanjie's information, he couldn't help but look surprised.
Soul Formation Stage?
Ji Wanjie was already at the Soul Formation Stage, and he had only been at the Golden Core Realm a few days ago.
What happened in the last few days?
Perhaps that special physique did something, just like Gu Yuqi.
Still, the speed of such an increase was staggering.
Li Yu was surprised, but he remained happy.
This way, he now had four Soul Formation Stage cultivators in the sect — Wu Chang, Gu Yuqi, Ji Wanjie, and his father.
However, Li Yu knew that Ji Wanjie's sudden departure was definitely related to his sudden increase in cultivation.
Li Yu quickly locked onto Ji Wanjie's exact location through the disciple management interface.
It was similar to the GPS system in his previous life.
It can also find and give directions accurately, powerful functions.
“Why did he go to Yun Prefecture?” Li Yu was confused. / Did Ji Wanjie really run away?
Why did he run away from the sect? And even if he didn't want to stay, why run to Yun Prefecture?
Li Yu was filled with questions, but she did not think too much about it. He would get an answer once he found Ji Wanjie.
"Come with me!" Li Yu brought Ji Qinglan and rode a purple lightning flood dragon towards Yun Prefecture.
In the mountains of Yun Prefecture that were shrouded in poison, the Blood Spirit King had just killed a demon beast of the demon king level.
After absorbing his blood essence, his cultivation finally became stable at the Soul Formation Stage.
I have to hide here for now. Even if Ji Qinglan, Li Yu, and the others knew I was missing, they would never wish for me to be here. Also, this place was filled with poison, and the scenery was blocked. I practically couldn't possibly find me!
The Blood Spirit King thought to himself.
After I kill a few more demon beasts, I will head to the Grand Desolate Forest. I will return when I reach the Tribulation realm!
With this thought in mind, the Blood Spirit King continued and continued hunting demon beasts for their blood essence to increase his cultivation.
After a long time, the Blood Spirit King hunted the other demon beasts.
Then, he used his magic power to refine the blood essence and soul of that demonic beast.
"Ji Wanjie!" Right at this moment, Li Yu's voice suddenly sounded.
Breezy.
The Blood Spirit King spewed out a mouthful of blood and looked up in shock. Two figures jumped down from the sky.
They were Ji Qinglan and Li Yu.
“Ninth Brother, what's up? Are you hurt?” Ji Qinglan asked anxiously as she watched the blood flowing in the corner of Ji Wanjie's mouth, and her clothes were stained red.
“A-I'm fine, I'm fine! How did you find me?”
The Blood Spirit King almost cried.
What the fuck? I have escaped so far and have been hiding very well. How did you even find me?
this brat! Li Yu is just a persistent ghost haunting me!
The Blood Spirit King also did not want to escape. Cultivating under the maintenance of the Ancient Fortune Dao Tree was truly incredible.
However, his smelting last night was finally completed, and his cultivation level had returned to the Soul Formation Stage.
He was unsure whether the owner of the Demonic Blood Body in the Physical Rank would remain Ji Wanjie's name or his true identity after he had completely fused with the body.
He was more worried that some other Heavenly Dao Rankers would appear in the future and reveal his true identity.
Therefore, he still chose to leave the Qingyun Sect for safety reasons. After all, nothing is more important than his life.
He would never have imagined that Li Yu could still find him after escaping far away.
He might really be the ghost that haunts me!
Li Yu glanced at the corpse of the demonic beast not far away, then seeing Ji Wanjie's appearance, his brows furrowed slightly.
He seemed to understand that there was something fishy about this Demonic Blood Body.
It seemed to require him to devour the blood essence of a demonic beast in order to increase his cultivation. This might be the reason why Ji Wanjie's cultivation had suddenly broken through to the Soul Formation Stage.
However, that demonic beast had already become a dried corpse, and its death seemed tragic. It was evident that this Demonic Blood Body was indeed extremely extraordinary.
"Ninth Brother, why did you suddenly leave without a word?"
Faced with Ji Qinglan's question and 'You'd better give me a reasonable explanation' from Li Yu.
The Blood Spirit King's desire to live exploded. He felt that if he did not give a satisfactory explanation, he would die.
He had an idea and came up with a story.
The point was that there was an anomaly in the physique in particular, and some memories that were not hers appeared in her mind.
Those memories had guided him to Yun Prefecture in search of opportunities, so he left without a word and found his destiny opportunity here.
It allowed his cultivation to soar all the way to the Soul Formation Stage. Moreover, he needed a lot of demon beast blood essence to feed his particular physique. Otherwise, he might become bloodthirsty.
“Although I can fully control this physique now, I don't know if there will be any terrible changes in the future. I was worried that I would not be able to control myself someday, and I did not want to involve the sect. I shouldn't have stayed in the Qingyun Sect either, but I can't say it out loud. All I can do is leave without a word!” The Blood Spirit King explained.
As an old demon who had lived for over ten thousand years, the Blood Spirit King's ability to fabricate stories was still impressive.
The entire matter was perfectly explained and realistic, causing Li Yu and Ji Qinglan to believe the story.
Even Elder Nie the immortal sword did not doubt him.
He's just the rest of the soul. Coupled with his limited understanding of Ji Wanjie, he could not sense anything was wrong with him.
Moreover, he did not know much about the Demonic Blood Body.
He only knew that this physique did indeed possess some blood refining abilities, and might even be a little bloodthirsty. After all, this was a characteristic of the Demon Body.
Hence, the Blood Spirit King had managed to deceive everyone with his story.
He was even proud of his outstanding appearance.
