Nine Yang Alchemy Emperor-Chapter 1104 - 1114: Life Holy Water

"If life were but as when we first met, why should the autumn wind mourn the painted fan! So easily the heart of an old friend changes, yet one says the heart of an old friend changes easily!" Chu Feng unconsciously recited half a poem.

Moaning without illness, overly sentimental, this is a characteristic display of many women.

Xiong Guansui couldn't help but think of some heartbreaking event in this sentimental setting. Parting with someone, perhaps, which made her so sorrowful?

This was exactly what Chu Feng wanted to know.

After all, she was technically Chu Feng's Sword Slave, whether she admitted it or not, this was an indisputable fact.

"So easily the heart of an old friend changes, yet one says the heart of an old friend changes easily! Such a good poem!" Ye Wu couldn't help but let her beautiful eyes shine and applauded in admiration.

In her eyes, Chu Feng was becoming increasingly outstanding and charming.

Xiong Guansui's expression showed a brief confusion, then she began to slowly savor the artistic conception of the half poem by Chu Feng. Her pretty face, instead of losing the color of sadness, deepened by a few degrees.

"Miss Xiong, could it be that you have separated from your beloved, which is why you're touched by the scenery?" Chu Feng asked tentatively.

"You could say that!"

Surprisingly, Xiong Guansui did not deny, instead revealing a tragically beautiful smile and admitting it straightforwardly.

It was unclear whether she truly had a beloved or was admitting to having one to make Chu Feng give up. To stop bothering her.

"Let the past be past! There's a thousand trees of spring before the withered wood, people should look forward. It doesn't matter if Miss Xiong was abandoned by her beloved, look more at me, because I'm very handsome. Definitely a thousand times better than your beloved."

Chu Feng boasted shamelessly, praising himself fiercely.

Pu chi~!

Ye Wu couldn't help but cover her face with her sleeves and laughed. She seemed to have found a new world, realizing that Chu Feng, this blockhead, could be so romantic.

At the same time, a thread of displeasure rose in her heart.

Because Chu Feng had interacted with her several times, even spending time alone, but Chu Feng never showed any pursuit or enthusiasm towards her, always maintaining a cold attitude.

Before, she thought this was just Chu Feng's personality.

And didn't pay much attention.

Now, seeing Chu Feng enthusiastically pursuing Xiong Guansui made Ye Wu feel quite jealous.

Does this mean she was not as charming as Xiong Guansui? So, she couldn't attract Chu Feng's interest?

Xiong Guansui glanced at Chu Feng with displeasure, "Vain!"

Amidst their conversation, more people were entering the Immortal Tomb. Chu Feng quickly led the two women aside to avoid colliding with the newcomers.

"Where did that old Demon Emperor go?"

Scholar Qin Jian and others entered eagerly asking.

"We don't know, we haven't seen them since we entered!" Chu Feng was the first among these people to enter the Immortal Tomb.

Just after entering, he had intentionally checked the surroundings and found no trace of the Demon Emperor and others.

Earlier outside, the Demon Emperor and others moved very quickly.

Yet they could still see faint afterimages. Altogether, seven people entered, including Chang Erliu, making it eight.

So many people disappearing in the blink of an eye was suspicious in itself.

"Fellow Taoists, do you think the Demon Emperor might have already rushed to Naihe Bridge?" Chief Clerk Feihong asked anxiously.

Chu Feng stood aside, observing coldly, analyzing the conversation between Chief Clerk Feihong and others through their words and expressions.

He deduced that Chief Clerk Feihong and these experts entered the Immortal Tomb to retrieve a known treasure.

Just not knowing exactly what treasure?

As Chief Clerk Feihong was eager to lead the experts over Li Hen Mountain towards Naihe Bridge, shadows flew down from Li Hen Mountain.

"Feihong, Qin Jian, Ye Yanying, why are you so petty? I, Chang, entered the Immortal Emperor's Tomb first this time, not for anything else but to retrieve this barrel of Life Holy Water."

Several figures flew over, and Chang Erliu was unexpectedly among them.

It seemed that Chang Erliu's father had indeed arrived.

The elderly man in the black robe leading them was probably Demon Emperor Chang the Blind. Unlike an ordinary Dragon Robe, Chang the Blind's black robe was embroidered with Demon Flames.

Other than that, there were no other patterns.

Unlike the human Emperor's Dragon Robe, which is embroidered with nine Divine Dragons to show the Emperor's majesty.

Chang the Blind, perhaps deliberately, used nine stripes of Demon Flames to display his Demon Power.

"Humph, everyone knows that the Life Holy Spring of Li Hen Mountain only produces a small bottle each year. You're thinking of swallowing it all by yourself. Hand it over, or don't blame us for being rude. In this realm, there are few who dare make us three do the work for them. At least you, Chang the Blind, don't have that much face."

Chief Clerk Feihong seemed to harbor extreme animosity towards this Chang the Blind.

Outside the Immortal Tomb, he was already demonstrating rage, gnashing his teeth, wishing to kill Chang the Blind and others.

"Heh heh, Fellow Taoist Feihong has followed the City Lord for long, not gaining much skill, but has certainly nurtured officialism."

Chang the Blind didn't appear impressive, looking just like an ordinary skinny old man, nothing unusual.

His eyes were turned upwards.

Only white sclera was visible, not his black pupils.

Particularly terrifying.

This presumably is also the origin of Chang the Blind's nickname.

"Will you hand it over or not?" Chief Clerk Feihong took a step forward, the Treasure Sword unsheathed, ready to act. A momentum as mighty as a mountain surged towards Chang the Blind in front.

An Upper Earth Immortal's anger is like divine wrath, causing all Supreme Sword Gods to tremble with fear, their Divine Souls quaking.

This was no joke, the rage of an Upper Earth Immortal could easily cost them their lives.

They couldn't help but be afraid.

Scholar Qin Jian held his qin, his expression indifferent. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

Ye Yanying's behavior was the most unusual, showing no intention to act.

"Though Fellow Taoist Feihong's strength is formidable, when it comes to a duel, you may not be a match for me, Chang. Perhaps if you called your master over, it might back you up."

It's unclear if Chang the Blind's eerie eyes were blind or not?

His infamy spread wide, the female sword fairy of Extreme Cold Cave, felt a chill run down her spine when caught in his gaze.

Even Vice Cave Master Qi Jue, an expert of the Earth Immortal Realm, couldn't help but retreat, shielding the disciples of Extreme Cold Cave behind him.

This time, Chief Clerk Feihong realized that his allies' attitudes were not firm.

He turned to look at Ye Yanying.

"Ahem... Let me state beforehand, my Ye Family only engages in commerce, not meddling in power struggles. Both of you are esteemed guests of our Penglai Auction. It wouldn't be good to assist either side. I advise everyone to take a step back and see the bigger picture."

Ye Yanying made it clear he would not get involved in this matter.

The Ye Family was a business family to begin with, so their decision was not surprising.

"Fellow Taoist Qin Jian, what about you?" Chief Clerk Feihong turned to look at Scholar Qin Jian. Though Scholar Qin Jian appeared to be just a crowned youth, few could defeat his formidable combat capabilities.

"Uh... This depends on what Fellow Taoist Feihong thinks. You are the Chief Clerk, representing the official. What do you propose?"
