I made the entire cultivation world cry

Chapter 459 It Was You All Along! (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
Xia Changying was clearly surprised that Jiang Yi would come out at that exact moment.

Their eyes met, and Xia Changying first put on a gentle and harmless smile, even condescending to casually cup his hands towards Jiang Yi.

"Young friend Jiang, we meet again."

Her visitor was clearly ill-intentioned, but given the public setting, the territory of the three major sword sects, and her current prominence, Xia Changying, unless he had gone mad, was definitely not there to cause her trouble.

Jiang Yi naturally had nothing to be afraid of.

"What brings you here, Venerable Daoist?"

Xia Changying remained gentle and harmless, even concealing the aura of a Nascent Soul cultivator, showing no signs of oppression.

"Indeed, there are two things. First, I want to send you an invitation to my junior, Wanwan. I heard from Wanwan that she once fought against you in Beixuan and lost to you. She admires you but is also somewhat unconvinced, so she would like to invite you to Lizhou when you have time to meet with you and have another match with you."

As he spoke, Xia Changying actually took out two invitation cards made of jade pieces and handed them to Jiang Yi with one hand.

Jiang Yi politely accepted the gift with both hands, saying, "I will definitely pay you a visit when I have the time."

Xia Changying smiled and nodded, "The second thing is that I want to ask you about someone."

He claimed that he had changed, and his tone carried a hint of pressure, which could be considered a case of being polite first and then resorting to force.

Even without him saying it, Jiang Yi knew who she wanted to find out.

Xia Changying spoke frankly, "I have been observing the battle for the Heavenly Ranking. Ever since your fire fox spirit made its move in the Azure Forest, I have known that the fire it carries is the 'Candle Moth Pure Fire,' the natal spirit fire of the once-famous Tianxin Ancestor of Beixuan. So I would like to ask you if Duan Tianxin has already perished?"

“No, Ancestor Tianxin is still alive.” Jiang Yi said without blinking, as if it were perfectly natural.

Xia Changying was startled, but his face remained expressionless.

"Where did you get the 'Candle Moth Purifying Flame'? That flame is bound to Duan Tianxin's soul, how could you obtain it?"

Jiang Yi blinked her innocent and naive eyes, "She gave it to me, and it wasn't the Candle Moth's Pure Fire, it was another kind of gray fire. Surely the True Venerable can't even tell the difference?"

Xia Changying's brow twitched. He thought to himself, "This brat has a limit to her nonsense! That gray flame was clearly evolved from the pure flame of the candle moth; their origins are the same!"

And give it to her? Duan Tianxin would rather be burned to death than hand over the source of the Candle Moth Pure Fire. Why should she make Duan Tianxin willingly hand over the Candle Moth Pure Fire?
Jiang Yi chuckled. She really wasn't lying about this. When Tianxin Ancestor died, she truly gave everything she had to Hongli willingly.

"Then do you know where Duan Tianxin is right now?"

Jiang Yi shook her head, "I don't know about that. I have a very shallow relationship with Ancestor Tianxin. She only said that she was going to find someone to take revenge and wipe out their entire clan, but she didn't say where she was going specifically."

"What is her current cultivation level?"

"He's half a step into the Divine Transformation realm, and might already be a Divine Transformation realm person."

"........."

"Xia Changying, you're asking for death!"

Suddenly, a sharp shout broke the silence, and a huge lotus flower containing boundless vitality and chilling killing intent emerged from under Xia Changying's feet. Its petals swirled like blades, fiercely attacking Xia Changying.

In a moment of haste, Xia Changying's internal magical power surged, and his protective aura instantly expanded, barely managing to withstand the attacking petals.

The protective aura was filled with several distinct yet exceptionally powerful strange fire energies, which, when hastily activated, appeared chaotic and sinister.

The lotus flower burst open completely, and the violent shockwave struck Xia Changying's protective aura precisely like a heavy hammer.

At the same time, Su Hua appeared out of thin air beside Jiang Yi, protecting her behind her, and coldly watched as Xia Changying's protective aura dented and deformed violently.

Xia Changying retreated with a few quick taps on his toes, managing to regain his balance. His face was so dark it could drip water. Su Hua stared at Xia Changying and said coldly, "Do you think we're all dead? How dare you sneak up here to bully my grand-disciple?!"

A fierce glint flashed in Xia Changying's eyes. He had clearly underestimated Su Hua's protectiveness and the power she wielded in her rage.

He dared not be careless, and with no more magic power in his body, he roared and his protective aura shone brightly!

Roar--

A deep yet majestic roar seemed to come from ancient times, and suddenly a layer of brilliant golden flames appeared on the protective aura formed by the mixture of several different kinds of strange fire.

Golden flames rapidly rose and condensed, instantly transforming into a phantom of a Qilin that looked down upon all directions.

The phantom raised its head and roared, its extremely yang and powerful Qilin golden fire aura spreading out, directly clashing with Su Hua's wood spirit pressure.

"Xia Changying!"

Jiang Yunye flashed between Xia Changying and Su Hua, his longsword held horizontally across his chest, forcefully blocking Xia Changying's counterattack and absorbing all the power into the scabbard to neutralize it.

Otherwise, not only this inn, but the entire street would be gone!
Jue Mingzi and You Ying arrived shortly after and immediately checked on Jiang Yi behind Su Hua to see if she was alright. They found that Jiang Yi's face was deathly pale, her fists were clenched, and her eyes were even bloodshot as she stared intently at Xia Changying's gradually dissipating protective aura.

That domineering and pure golden flame, imbued with the aura of a divine beast... Jiang Yi would never mistake it!
It's the Qilin Golden Fire!
Zhao Cangyun's severed Qilin arm, his nearly shattered demon core, and the things he refused to reveal no matter what...

All the clues became clear the moment Xia Changying unleashed the phantom of the Qilin Golden Fire.

Jiang Yi lowered her eyes, suppressing her anger for the time being. This matter wasn't over yet, so there was no rush!
At this moment, four people were confronting one person. Xia Changying could not muster any momentum and could only suppress his anger at being suddenly attacked and explain.

"I only came to deliver an invitation to young friend Jiang on behalf of a junior member of my family. Fellow Daoist Su Hua attacked me without asking any questions, especially in this Qing Shi City. Isn't that going too far?"

Su Hua is mostly peaceful, but when it comes to protecting her own, she has a temper that is even more fiery than her apprentice Dan Xi.

"Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. You've been searching everywhere for strange flames, and when you saw the fire fox next to her, you had evil intentions!"

Jiang Yunye returned to Su Hua's side and nodded vigorously in agreement.

Xia Changying flicked his sleeve and said, "I have never had any ill intentions towards young friend Jiang. Believe it or not, farewell!"

Xia Changying vanished in a flash. Su Hua immediately turned around and looked Jiang Yi up and down. Seeing Jiang Yi's gloomy expression, she asked nervously, "What's wrong? Did he threaten you?"

Jiang Yi suppressed his emotions and said, "Grandmaster, Grandmaster, and the two seniors, please come in."

Jue Mingzi stroked his beard and said, "Youying and I still need to deliver messages to our respective sects' disciples, so we won't disturb you any longer. You two chat first."

After saying that, Jue Mingzi and You Ying took their leave first.

Jiang Yi invited Jiang Yunye and Su Hua into the house. After Su Hua's grandmaster sealed the house, she told them about Tianxin Ancestor and Zhao Cangyun.

After hearing this, Su Hua slammed her hand on the table in anger, "This Xia Changying has committed countless evil deeds!"

Jiang Yunye was also furious, "Heaven is unjust, why didn't it strike him down when he was at the Nascent Soul stage!"

After venting her anger, Su Hua looked at Jiang Yi with concern and said, "The difference in cultivation between you and Xia Changying is too great. You must not act impulsively, lest you give him an excuse to attack you. We will definitely seek justice for you and Cang Yun in this matter!"

Jiang Yi nodded, "I know, healing my junior brother is the most important thing right now. I won't act impulsively, but I also won't let him get away with it!"

　The bonus chapter for monthly pass votes will be added tomorrow. I've been working on revising the manuscript this week, and I should be able to finish the first submission this afternoon. If I work harder, I can speed up the publication process of the manuscript. So the bonus chapter will be delayed. Please forgive me!

　　See you tomorrow~
