Traveler of the River of Time and Space-Chapter 497 - 17: Master of Sakura Island (Part 1)

Chapter 497: Chapter 17: Master of Sakura Island (Part 1)

Qing Ji ultimately didn’t go too hard, only giving the Aoandon a bit of a flesh wound.

It seems her temper has indeed improved quite a bit.

Not to mention in the Dream World before, where Qing Ji burned Su Ziyu to ashes more than ten times with just a word out of place, even after transforming into Bai Ji and coming out to play, she incinerated quite a few people who harbored ill intentions due to her beauty.

The murderous aura around Qing Ji had always been intense.

However, she wouldn’t kill without reason, but if you accidentally angered her, you might be not far from being ground to dust.

Over time, Qing Ji would rarely leave anyone alive when she made a move.

After dealing with the Aoandon on the side, Qing Ji finally looked a lot more pleased, partly because she vented her long-standing anger, and partly because she reunited with Su Ziyu.

She is actually very protective.

In the Ghost Capital, a Yaksha tried to attack Su Ziyu, but she burnt them all clean with a single fire.

Frankly speaking, aside from what happened in the Dream World, Qing Ji hadn’t burned Su Ziyu outside, but he himself left a significant psychological shadow from the past, always feeling he might accidentally get burned.

"Husband..." Qing Ji opened her mouth, hesitant to speak.

Su Ziyu had some guesses about her question, raised his hand, and gently said, "This isn’t the place to talk, let’s find somewhere else to discuss it."

After speaking, he deliberately glanced at the Aoandon, indicating that trouble-making fellow was an outsider.

Hearing this, Qing Ji smiled gently and nodded, "Mm."

Only she knew Su Ziyu’s secret here, not even his six sisters knew more.

"These insufferable lovers..." Aoandon groaned as she got up, rubbed her sore backside, it seemed like this body almost got ruined.

Just wait!

I’ve definitely decided to draw your story!

Though she thought to herself like this, Aoandon turned her head again with a pitiful and thoroughly remorseful expression pleading not to be hit again.

Last time, she used this trick to send the Guhuo Bird away.

Just as expected.

Seeing Aoandon’s pitiful look, Qing Ji’s heart softened, and she didn’t punish her further.

"No more nonsense." Qing Ji sternly scolded with a pretty face.

"Got it." Aoandon nodded obediently.

Seeing the honest look on the other’s face, Qing Ji immediately turned to look at Su Ziyu, expectantly saying, "Dear husband."

"Shall we head back first?"

Compared to Aoandon’s affair, Su Ziyu’s return was undoubtedly more important.

"Alright." Su Ziyu nodded compliantly.

Before leaving, he even shot Aoandon a look, warning her not to cause more trouble.

Hopefully, it’ll work.

Afterwards, the two figures rose into the air, flying straight toward Sakura Island.

Sakura Island, located in Fusang Kyushu Kagoshima Prefecture, is the symbol of Kagoshima and remains a very active volcano.

In terms of direct distance, Sakura Island is quite far from Tokyo, spanning almost half of Fusang, but given Fusang’s relatively small land area, flying there didn’t take too long. Qing Ji’s strength had indeed improved significantly compared to before, with Su Ziyu’s current Telekinesis Enhancement Level just about matching hers, and it seemed Qing Ji still had some strength to spare.

Indeed.

A thousand years have passed.

If Qing Ji had truly been diligently cultivating for a thousand years, it would almost amount to becoming an Immortal in Eastern terms.

If she truly were an Immortal, she would essentially be on the same level as a Divine Spirit.

According to Su Ziyu’s current judgment, and the speed at which Aoandon conceded, Qing Ji’s current strength might be slightly stronger than his, and more importantly, with Spiritual Vision, there was a faint white light around Qing Ji.

In Huaxia’s terms, this faint white light seems to be called Light of Merit.

Of course.

It’s simply a kind of Spiritual Light, a feedback from the Plane’s consciousness; Su Ziyu himself had a lot on his body, seemingly accumulating to a certain level, slowly manifesting a glint of gold.

"Dear husband."

"Kyoto is ahead." Qing Ji’s figure halted in mid-air, her white dress fluttering in the wind, the cloud patterns on her skirt shimmering slightly in the moonlight, looking like a transcendent immortal.

Kyoto?

The other side must be Osaka?

Kyoto is no longer Fusang’s political and cultural center today, but the Ghost Capital remains here because it’s Fusang’s Dragon Vein, only later extending to the Edo region.

A thousand years.

Like a lifetime ago.

In the blink of an eye, Kyoto has transformed into a modern city, still retaining some ancient buildings, but the change is truly substantial.

"Is that Rashomon over there?" Su Ziyu also came to a stop and asked.

After the Ghost Gate was sealed, that place remained a Land of Yin and Evil.

Due to the presence of the Ghost Capital, the entire Kyoto was shrouded in a faint mist under Spiritual Vision.

"Does dear husband want to go down and take a look?"

"The Guhuo Bird is now residing in Osaka." Qing Ji turned, smiling sweetly as she spoke.

Su Ziyu shook his head, "No need."

"I don’t have deep ties with her."

After speaking, he furrowed his brows, slowly saying, "Do you know what happened in the Ghost Capital?"

"I’ve heard about it." Qing Ji pondered momentarily before saying, "But Master Yama hasn’t asked for our help."

"Not long after dear husband left."

"The Great Demons sought their secret realms to retreat to."

"For over three hundred years, only the slippery ghost has frequented the Netherworld, and I haven’t been to the Ghost Capital for over three hundred years."

Su Ziyu nodded, "I’ll come back in a few days."

Plane fractures tend to heal on their own, and Yama may not want outsiders meddling too much in the affairs of the Ghost Capital.

Soon.

The two arrived within the Kyushu region; Kagoshima lagged significantly behind Tokyo, roughly akin to a third or fourth-tier city.

Sakura Island is an active volcano.

Around the volcano island, there are over ten thousand residents, and Qing Ji’s residence is a shrine on it, dedicated to Kusanada Hime, but in reality, it’s Qing Ji and her sisters.

"Huh?"

Su Ziyu’s figure landed before the shrine’s torii; his expression bore a hint of curiosity as he murmured, "Qing Ji."

"Does it seem there’s a great formation here?"

The shrine on Sakura Island was exceedingly simple, merely a torii, a divine hall, accompanied by a few small houses, very inconspicuous, seemingly a place with few visitors. But in actuality, the shrine’s underground was not simple, because Su Ziyu’s Spiritual Perception sensed that the underground connected to a great formation, directly sealing the entire island, completely subduing this active volcano beneath it.

"Mm." Qing Ji nodded slightly beside him, softly saying, "I didn’t have much to do these years."

"So I helped suppress this volcano a bit."

I see.

No wonder Su Ziyu would see that faint white light on Qing Ji.

"Bai Ji, Your Highness."

Just when they were talking, a rabbit demon hurriedly ran out from behind the shrine, shouting, "Oh no! The demon-sword princess has gone out drinking with the six princesses again!..."
