A life of clearness

Chapter 114 Be Prepared
Zhao Riyue was obviously very excited in his heart, but at this moment he tried his best to keep a straight face in order to maintain his image, so as not to lose his reward because of his image being ruined.

"Aunt Zhi, take her to clean up the house." Dugu Zhi looked at Zhao Riyue after giving the order, "If you need anything during this period of time, please tell us."

"Thank you, young master." Zhao Riyue bowed, nodded to Aunt Zhi who was walking over, and entered the carriage with the girl beside him.

Dugu Zhi watched Aunt Zhi leave with the pony.

"It is indeed the right decision to let you take care of the affairs of Baishi Temple." Rong Qing appeared behind Dugu Zhi with one hand on the back of the chair.

She never thought that cultivators should firmly occupy the position of leader. Rong Qing believed that Dugu Zhi was better than Shan Xing and others in mundane matters such as forming alliances and running organizations, so Dugu Zhi should be allowed to do these things.

Shanxing and Fengcong are known for their martial arts, so Dugu Zhi will be responsible for deploying them to maximize their martial arts advantage.

In less than four years, Dugu Zhi not only firmly controlled Jing State, but also extended his tentacles to the north.

Rong Qing was not surprised by such a speed because the supporter of Baishi Temple was Rong Qing, a cultivator from Liuguang Sword Sect who was about to become a god.

"That's true. I won't be modest in front of you." Dugu Zhi raised his lips slightly. "What are you going to do next?"

"I have an appointment to keep... Don't worry, I will definitely come back as soon as possible." Rong Qing explained, "I didn't expect the situation to deteriorate so quickly. I just wanted to stay with Ah Xiu and Jia Jia for a few more years and make more preparations before leaving."

"What a pity! I am destined to be a hard worker. I am not allowed to slack off for even a moment." She laughed at herself.

"Is it dangerous?" Dugu Zhi sensitively grasped the unfinished meaning in Rong Qing's words.

"Wealth and honor are sought in danger." Rong Qing tapped the back of the chair with her fingers. "After I leave, if there is any emergency, just follow the plans you and I agreed on in the past."

Dugu Zhi sighed and said hello.

He was able to hold such great power in Baishi Temple and even dispatch Jindan cultivators at will, all because of Rong Qing's trust and support.

Of course he was afraid that Rong Qing would never come back, but he also knew very well that the reason Baishi Temple could have the power it has today was because of people like Rong Qing, who would not back down because of the difficulties before them.

"I will be back, don't worry."

"Now that you say that, aren't you afraid of raising the flag?" Dugu Zhi asked with a smile.

This sentence was also something Rong Qing had mentioned occasionally and explained its meaning before.

"To be honest, I don't believe in that. I only believe in being prepared." Rong Qing said seriously, "That's why I agreed with you on so many backup plans."

"It's better to be prepared..." Dugu Zhi subconsciously stroked the armrest of the wheelchair.

"I have recently selected many children from the clan to train. Perhaps one of them will be able to take over the Dugu clan for me in the future."

Like Zhong Xiu, Dugu Zhi's lifespan was greatly shortened, but compared to Zhong Xiu, Dugu Zhi's remaining lifespan was slightly longer.

"Is it just to take over the Dugu clan for you?" Rong Qing suddenly asked.

The fingers stroking the armrest of the wheelchair paused.

Dugu Zhi now had his back to Rong Qing, so he couldn't see the expression on her face.

"Whether they can catch your eye or not depends on the luck of those children."

The person behind him was silent for a moment. To Dugu Zhi, this short period of time seemed to have been extended infinitely.

Finally, Rong Qing spoke.

"Since this is the successor you, Dugu, have trained... I am looking forward to it."

She released her hands from the back of the chair and walked away.

Dugu Zhi's tense body finally relaxed when he heard Rong Qing's footsteps entering the house.

He looked at his left hand. Just now, in the silence, his fingers unconsciously clenched the wheelchair armrest, so when they suddenly relaxed, a wave of pain surged up.

... "If you hadn't sent me the talisman, I would have gone to the Sword Sect to find you and asked you if you had forgotten our agreement in Cangliu Continent."

Fenghuang'er was wearing a emerald green dress, and her gentle face remained unchanged.

"There was a slight delay to make some preparations."

"In fact, I did too," Fenghuang'er did not ask Rong Qing what preparations she had made. "It took me a long time to digest the gains from Kaitian and adapt my body to it."

There is no sign of the power within Phoenix that is comparable to that of a ferocious beast.

I don’t know, who will win in a fight between me and Fenghuang’er?

Rong Qing couldn't help but think of this question.

After all, Fenghuang'er was famous for her dual identities as a music cultivator and a physical cultivator. Both of these were extremely difficult to cultivate successfully.

But looking at Rong Qing, her physical strength is not bad now, not to mention that she also has restrictions on her.

It’s really hard to say who will win and who will lose.

However, it's just thought about it now.

"Here." Fenghuang'er stood in front of a cave, holding a formation plate in one hand.

Fenghuang'er told Rong Qing at the beginning that there was a teleportation array on an island somewhere in the Forbidden Sea, which could directly teleport to the area of ​​​​Ruining Dream Ruins.

However, Fenghuang'er would never tell Rongqing the location of the island and how to find the teleportation array at that time. Only when she was sure that Rongqing would come would she lead the way directly.

"pretty."

The two entered the cave, and Rong Qing was the first to exclaim in admiration.

Formations and restrictions have something in common. Rong Qing, who is proficient in restrictions, also has some experience in formations.

The teleportation patterns inside the cave are not just engraved on the ground, but are also painted all over the ceiling and the surrounding mountain walls.

In her opinion, there is a lot to learn from the exquisite array patterns and wonderful ideas.

"I now believe that such a long-distance teleportation array can take us through the forbidden sea."

It turns out that he never believed what she said before. Fenghuanger held back her complaints.

Obviously seeing Fenghuang'er's hesitation, Rong Qing smiled and said, "I never thought that it would be such a big deal to use a mountain as the formation base. A formation with a fixed formation base like the teleportation formation is extremely expensive just to make. If we want to teleport, we have to consume tens of thousands of high-quality spirit stones."

Rong Qing and Fenghuang'er took out a large number of spirit stones from their storage bags and placed them in the base of the formation.

"Think about how much raw materials it took to build such a long-distance teleportation array. At first, I thought it was teleporting between islands and eventually reaching the Dream Ruins."

When the last spirit stone was inlaid, a large amount of milky white light suddenly appeared on the array base, outlining and reflecting each other.

Fenghuang'er and Rong Qing entered the formation.

There was no need to even communicate. One took out a jade flute from his sleeve, and the other held the cold sword.

Such a large-scale teleportation array meant that their destination was Dream Ruins. Once they landed, they would face the omnipresent illusion.

The huge formation carved into the mountain revealed its former glory with the addition of sufficient spiritual energy. When the milky white light, which was not dazzling at first, gathered together, it completely submerged the faces and figures of the two female cultivators.

Click.

In the blink of an eye, the ball of light that had gradually formed inside the mountain suddenly collapsed, and the formation was empty, as if no one had ever been here.
