Chapter 445: Chapter 400: A Sword Cleaves the Path of Life and Death_1
The next day.
The sunlight streamed in through the window as Li Fan, still groggy from sleep, walked out of the study.
It was a clear and bright day.
The disciples had already gotten up, each freshening up. Nan Feng and Su Baiqian brought over water for washing faces.
After Li Fan washed his face, Lu Rang, as usual, took his used water to water the plants and trees.
Elsewhere, Zi Ling was familiarizing Yun Xi with the courtyard.
“Sister Yunxi, this water for washing your face can nourish your skin.”
Yun Xi looked at the water Zi Ling had fetched for washing faces, her beautiful eyes brimming with disbelief.
This water…
It was truly a divine spring, yet it was being used to wash faces!
And also could be used to water vegetables…
“This is Disciple Lu Rang’s vegetable garden; he practices the Cultivation and Rearing Path, with his most outstanding aspect being grass cultivation…”
As Zi Ling introduced, she picked two tomatoes and handed them to Yun Xi, saying, “Eat one after breakfast, it’s good for the body.”
Yun Xi looked at Lu Rang’s vegetable garden with a complex expression on her face.
These “vegetables” were extremely rare Spiritual Medicines in the Yang Realm.
Anyway, the best ones in her family probably weren’t this good…
“This is Disciple Lu Rang’s Little Gold Bull, which he raises on the many types of grass he specially cultivates.”
Zi Ling picked up a handful of grass, and the Little Gold Bull mooed, happily munching on the grass.
This grass… contained a divine aura that was nothing short of extraordinary!
Soon after, Zi Ling continued to familiarize Yun Xi with the circumstances of the courtyard.
However, upon seeing the flock of Earth Chickens, the pond, the Peach Tree, and others, Yun Xi’s eyes still showed a hint of anxiety and fear.
After all, these were assuredly creatures of myths and legends.
It wasn’t much longer before Zi Ling finished showing Yun Xi around.
“Master, breakfast is ready.”
Gong Ya had prepared breakfast.
Eggs, rice porridge, and many slices of salted meat.
Of course, there was also the thick soy milk, which Gong Ya had learned to make under Li Fan’s careful guidance.
A group of disciples gathered together, enjoying their breakfast.
Li Fan casually ate a bit, then peeled an egg and broke it into small pieces to feed to Xiao Bai.
At the same time, he poured a small bowl of soy milk into a cat bowl for her to drink.
This time, Yun Xi felt less restrained; she ate her eggs while sipping on soy milk, a strange sense of joy in her heart.
Although the Great Demon King was formidable, life in this small courtyard was indeed quite comfortable.
Free from worries, not having to think about any bothersome matters.
If only she could continue living like this forever…
As she thought this, something suddenly came to her mind, and she looked up and said,
“Right… I forgot there’s something I need to tell you.”
She had been so preoccupied with eating yesterday that she had forgotten the important matters.
Upon hearing this, Li Fan’s hands momentarily paused as he looked toward Yun Xi and asked,
“What is it?”
Could it be related to the otherworldly visitors??
Yun Xi said,
“The people you’re looking for, they must have taken action against this world.”
“This world is probably about to be destroyed.”
Upon hearing this, Li Fan was momentarily stunned.
The people he was looking for… the otherworldly visitors?
Are they taking action… to destroy this world?
Damn, that’s too brutal!
At this moment, he felt a surge of sadness and anger!
Look, look!
Other visitors were already so powerful that they could destroy a world!
This kind of scenario was something one would almost only see in a cultivation fantasy novel!
And what about himself?
He was a visitor too, yet only at Qi Refinement level one!
He felt a deep sense of inferiority.
I’m sorry, for dragging down the rank of the visitors, for disgracing the visitor team!
Alas!
He heaved a long sigh.
World destruction…
What could one do about such a thing?
“Qian Ning and the others have come to pay respects to Senior Li.”
Just then, Mu Qianning’s voice came from outside.
“Come in.”
Li Fan spoke.
Fire Spirit and Mu Qianning had already walked in.
——After last night’s banquet, they too had succumbed to drunkenness, ultimately staying at Auntie Wang’s house.
Only upon awakening this morning did they hurriedly make their way over.
After all, although Senior Li likely didn’t care about the supposed invasion from the Demon Domain, they themselves had to seek guidance on what to do.
“Senior, engulfed in food and wine last night, I forgot the important matters. Fire Spirit and I have come to report something to Senior Li.”
“There seems to be some major upheaval in the Demon Domain… The Demon Domain is very likely to attack the Immortal Domain.”
“So, we specifically came to inform Senior.”
Fire Spirit spoke, her expression grave.
Li Fan, upon hearing this, felt his head grow even heavier.
Again, the Demon Domain!
Although he had never been there, just hearing the name told him it was not a congenial place!
The Demon Domain attacking the Immortal Domain, this sounded like an extraordinary war.
In such a war, being a mortal probably made it even more dangerous!
“The invasion of the Demon Domain must be because of those people…”
Yun Xi then spoke.
Li Fan suddenly felt that these transmigrators were going too far!
Couldn’t they just live their lives in peace?
God damn it!
However, he was also relieved that, thanks to his decent conduct in daily life, Yun Xi and Fire Spirit had come to tell him about this major upheaval.
“The world is about to be destroyed, do you know where the path to survival is?”
Li Fan looked at Fire Spirit and the others with hope in his eyes.
After all, they were businesspersons with extensive connections, perhaps, they could find a way to escape.
After all, Li Fan himself didn’t want to die either.
Escaping with Fire Spirit and the others would be the best outcome.
But upon hearing this, Fire Spirit and the others were taken aback.
Senior Li asking such a question…
The old man was testing them!
Immediately, Fire Spirit and the others felt a bit ashamed and said:
“We are ignorant and do not know, please enlighten us, Senior Li!”
Not knowing…
Li Fan: “…”
However, Yun Xi’s eyes lit up.
Asking this way… the Great Demon King
Could it be that the Great Demon King is ready to return to the Yang Realm?
Her long eyelashes fluttered a few times.
The lifespan of this Yin Realm was supposed to end anyway, and now that it’s starting to collapse early, entering the Yang Realm is indeed the only option.
She immediately felt a bit uneasy and said:
“I roughly know, the path to leave is over by the Taboo Sea…”
Li Fan was immediately elated!
Is there a way to escape?
That’s great!
He immediately looked towards the group of disciples and said:
“Who would like to scout out the path?”
Since there’s a way, then we must leave!
However, there are too many villagers, with families and dependents.
We need to send someone to establish a forward position, to secure the route, before we can organize everyone to escape together.
Lin Jiu Zheng immediately stepped forward and said:
“Master, I’ll go!”
His eyes were filled with anticipation!
Within the Demon Domain, Yin Ghosts were extremely abundant.
There was his best battlefield for honing his skills!
After all, among the group of disciples, only he and Su Baiqian were still in the Saint King Realm.
He felt the pressure as well.
“Master, let’s go too. It will be easier to look out for each other if the brothers and sisters stick together!”
At this time, Nan Feng spoke up.
Ever since the battle with the Imperial Allied Forces, she had fully realized that the only way their group of brothers and sisters could unleash their greatest fighting force was by uniting.
If they fought alone, they would have probably been annihilated when facing Great Saint level or Quasi-Emperor level powers.
The other disciples also nodded, all eager to give it a try!
Li Fan nodded as well, agreeing it was a good idea.
The more people went, the greater the hope of finding the path.
“Big Brother, Gong Ya and I want to go too!”
At this time, Xinning batted her eyes and said:
“Our family used to live over there, we’re more familiar with the area!”
Having reached the Quasi-Emperor Realm, she felt the need to fully restore the Nine Soul Paths to advance further.
In her past life, as the Nine Holy Demon Monarch during the Era of Immortal Dao, her Primeval Soul was split into nine parts, scattered across the world. Later, after consuming six soul paths, she had mostly restored herself.
But two paths had yet to appear.
She had a vague feeling that during the Era of Immortal Dao, those two souls had become one.
And they still existed today!
They should be in the Demon Domain.
Upon hearing this, Li Fan was somewhat surprised.
Xinning’s hometown was so far away?
But having someone familiar to lead the way was, of course, even better.
“Sure.”
Li Fan nodded, then added after a pause, “Since we’re going back to your hometown, we should bring some gifts.”
“Since Big Brother has nothing else to offer, I’ll give you a piece of calligraphy!”
He immediately said.
Zi Ling promptly prepared the ink and brushes.
Li Fan took up the brush, and at this moment, driven by his single desire to quickly find a way to escape, his thoughts flowed effortlessly onto paper.
“A sword cleaves the road between life and death, may all the mortals cross the Ghost Gate Pass together!”
The brushstroke was complete!
