I made the entire cultivation world cry

Chapter 617 All Things Are Auspicious (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

On the rooftop of Wangbei Tower, Hua Luosha leaned against a soft couch, flipping through the latest battle reports from the front lines. Behind her, the handsome corpse demon held a comb and meticulously combed her long hair. His movements were not stiff at all, and apart from the lack of spirit in his eyes, he was no different from a living person.

Hua Luosha ignored the battle report, which contained little new information, and yawned as she surveyed the Kunlun Pass below, which was beginning to take shape.

The streets were bustling with people and demons, and the signs for the Nine Heavens Cloud Pavilion and Cloud Crane Tower were particularly eye-catching. In the distance, demon beasts were carrying stones along the coast. Everything was orderly and full of life.

"This life is too comfortable; it doesn't feel like we're here to fight on the front lines at all."

Hua Luosha had to admit that the time she spent with Jiang Yi was more comfortable and relaxing than when she was in the sect. She didn't have to worry about anything or be on edge, and could enjoy a moment of peace and quiet.

Hua Luosha took a sip of wine and smiled. "I think I've been influenced by her too. I'm lazy to the bone. I just want to lie down and do nothing."

Just then, a dull, loud noise came from the direction of the back mountain, causing the windows of Wangbei Tower to shake.

Hua Luosha sat up straight instantly, her languid demeanor vanishing, and her sharp gaze turned toward the source of the vibration.

From the depths of the lush forest behind the mountain, an enormous, emerald-green figure suddenly rose from the ground!

That was a giant python!
Its scales were like the finest jade, and a ghastly green flame rose from its body, a flame that stung the very soul.

The flames burned silently, like phosphorescent fire from the deepest hell, staining the surrounding air with a sinister and eerie green hue.

The flames licked the scales, but did not harm the giant python in the slightest, nor did they burn the surrounding trees and rocks.

"A Nascent Soul stage demon?!"

Hua Luosha's pupils contracted sharply, and she immediately shielded the corpse demon in front of her.

At the same time, all the cultivators inside Kunlun Pass were also attracted by the tremor and saw the giant python in the mountain.

"My God! How could there be such a huge monster at Kunlun Pass?"

"A Nascent Soul demon beast?"

"That fire looks like the legendary... ghost fire?!"

"Look! It's Crane Shadow Sword Master! She's sitting on that giant python's head!"

The enormous snake head was raised high, with ghastly green flames burning fiercely in its empty eye sockets. In the very center of that ferocious snake head sat a figure lazily.

His simple blue robe perfectly reflects Jiang Yi's style!

The city's hustle and bustle was instantly ignited by this astonishing sight.

Hua Luosha also saw Jiang Yi. She sat cross-legged in the center of the ferocious snake head, one hand casually resting on her knee, her posture relaxed, as if she were not a terrifying Nascent Soul demon beneath her, but a docile mount.

Jiang Yi even tilted her head slightly, her gaze falling on Hua Luosha on the roof of Wangbei Tower. She raised an eyebrow and a smile appeared on her lips.

Hua Luosha stepped out from behind the corpse demon. Seeing that the Nascent Soul level demon was just a corpse, she crossed her arms and said, "Heh~ Just how many skills do you have that you're hiding? You've even learned to control corpses? And a Nascent Soul level corpse puppet at that! You've really gotten arrogant!"

Amidst the shocked and astonished gazes of everyone, Jiang Yi manipulated the enormous body of Bi Lin to crush through the dense jungle.

Wherever it passed, the mountains, rocks, grass and trees remained unharmed, but the cold and deathly aura emanating from Bi Lin's body spread like a tide. Whether it was cultivators or demon spirits and beasts, they all instinctively stayed away and retreated, not daring to get close even a little bit.

The enormous body of the Azure Scale bypassed the Kunlun Pass main city, which was under construction, and went straight to the steep coastline on the north side of the island. Without pausing, its huge head plunged into the turbulent dark blue sea.

Huge waves burst open on the sea surface, like a dragon entering the sea, meandering and swimming beneath the surface. A ghastly green light appeared and disappeared in the deep sea, stirring up the undercurrents and creating waves of dark currents. The scene was both spectacular and eerie.

A moment later, the light vanished completely into the deep sea, as if it had never existed.

But everyone knows that the giant python is still coiled at the bottom of the sea, guarding Kunlun Pass. As soon as the demonic tide comes, the giant python will definitely rush out to block it.

Inside the main city, the shopkeepers looked at each other and smiled happily, all feeling that their choice to open their shops in Kunlun Pass was absolutely correct.

The octagonal main city of Kunlun Pass is extraordinary. With the Crane Shadow Sword Master backed by powerful figures, and currently guarded by a mid-stage Nascent Soul sword cultivator and an early-stage Nascent Soul corpse puppet on the island, his sense of security is at its peak. (From the North-Looking Tower)

Jiang Yi appeared silently opposite Hua Luosha.

Hua Luosha looked Jiang Yi up and down, then curled her lip and said, "Well done, Island Master Jiang, your methods are becoming more and more unpredictable. When did you learn this skill of controlling corpses? You even managed to keep it from me?"

Jiang Yi sat down at the table without a word, and the corpse demon silently poured her a cup of spiritual tea.

Jiang Yi picked up her teacup, blew on it to cool it down, and said in a relaxed tone, "I just learned it, and the first thing I did after I finished my seclusion was to come and show it off to you."

"Hmph, don't give me that." Hua Luosha sneered.

Jiang Yi took a sip of tea and changed the subject, "How has it been on the island lately? Is it still peaceful?"

Hua Luosha leaned back on the soft couch and said lazily, "It's not just peaceful, it's so comfortable that it feels unreal! Your demon spirits are all more capable than the last. Zhenshan has inexhaustible strength and is busy mining. Duanjin is directing the puppeteer apprentices to work enthusiastically. Huagu is divided into three groups and leads the little demons to build walls and repair roads meticulously."

"Qingxiao, the one in charge of supervising the construction, can sense even the slightest disturbance. His whip cracks loudly, and no one can slack off or cause trouble on this island! Zhuxin sits downstairs, arranging everything flawlessly. As the nominal 'acting commander,' I do nothing all day except drink!"

As she spoke, Hua Luosha glanced at Jiang Yi.

"I used to think that raising a bunch of beautiful corpse puppets was pleasing to the eye and made my life comfortable. But now, compared to you, I realize how miserable my life is!"

Jiang Yi pretended to be serious, "It's alright, just average."

Hua Luosha seemed to remember something, and her tone became somewhat angry.

"By the way! You have to help me teach that brat Zhu Xin a lesson. I am, after all, the acting commander. I just wanted to help him out a bit, so I asked him if there was anything I could help with. He actually gave me that deadpan look and said that if I was free, I should go find a way to preserve my youth and fix the wrinkles around my eyes, and not cause him any trouble."

Hua Luosha grew angrier as she spoke, and suddenly sat up, pointing to the corner of her eye as she leaned close to Jiang Yi.

"Take a good look at me! Where are the wrinkles around my eyes? This kid is really infuriating. If it weren't for... for your sake, I would have beaten him to death."

Jiang Yi couldn't help but burst out laughing when she saw Hua Luosha pointing angrily at the corner of her eye.

"You're still laughing?!" Flower Rakshasa was even more annoyed.

"Ahem," Jiang Yi suppressed a laugh and reassured him seriously, "He's just a kid who doesn't know any better and is talking nonsense. Our Rakshasa girl has a secret to preserving her youth, she's stunningly beautiful and eternally youthful, and the corners of her eyes are so smooth that even a mosquito would have to do a split if it landed on them, where would she get any fine lines? I'll teach him a lesson later."

Hua Luosha then snorted and leaned back.

The two chatted for a few more minutes about trivial matters on the island. Jiang Yi put down his teacup and asked, "Has there been any new news from the alliance lately?"

Hua Luosha picked up the latest battle report she had dropped from the ground and tossed it to Jiang Yi.

"The latest frontline battle report: after the demonic tide receded, the demons seem to have truly quieted down, with no major disturbances. However, the alliance says the demonic energy concentration in the northern seas is still slowly rising, urging everyone to focus on construction and not slacken their efforts. Also..."

Hua Luosha paused, a look of anticipation on her face.

"I heard that the compensation and pensions from the Qiantian Sect have almost emptied their coffers. The takeover of Xuan Ying Island went very smoothly. Your mother is very efficient. Those people left behind by the Qiantian Sect are all obediently mining and modifying the mines under her control. I haven't seen the specifics. Didn't Sword Master Yunye go to check? Why hasn't he returned yet?"

Jiang Yi glanced at the battle report and chuckled, "He's not coming back."

The Xuan Ying Sword Sect is short of people, and Master's going there is simply walking into a trap. Knowing her mother's personality, she will definitely not let Master go. That's why she wants to keep Master as a protector first, and only release him at the end.

At this very moment, on Xuan Ying Island.

Jiang Yunye sighed, on the verge of tears. Even a dignified Nascent Soul sword cultivator had to obediently swing his sword and dig a foundation.

Jiang Yurong appeared silently like a ghost, glanced at the pit below, and said quietly, "Master, the pit is two inches deeper. Please fill it in by two inches."

Jiang Yunye: …………
