I made the entire cultivation world cry

Chapter 630 Discussion (Seeking monthly votes)

Shang Shixu's words made the atmosphere among everyone even more tense. Except for Jiang Yi and Hua Luosha, everyone else frowned in unison.

Although their circumstances and the timing of the business were different, they couldn't help but wonder if delaying would ultimately have consequences for them.

Having survived the destruction of Beixuan, they carried not only their own lives and future, but also the hopes and legacy of their sect and family.

Jiang Yi waited patiently without urging them, letting them think things through at their own pace.

She glanced at Hua Luosha, who was sitting crookedly to the side. Hua Luosha parted her red lips slightly and silently said to Jiang Yi, "If you go, I will go."

Jiang Yi closed her eyes briefly to indicate that she understood.

Hua Luosha had witnessed Jiang Yi and her demons fighting their way through the demonic tide, and knew that Jiang Yi had more than one way to combat demonic energy and demonic thoughts. She also knew that Jiang Yurong was nearly killed by demonic energy, but in the end, it was Jiang Yi who cured her.

Hua Luosha knew she was just a nobody, and if most people decided to go, she would inevitably be unable to escape.

So, in the first place, don't be the annoying one. Just find a powerful figure to cling to and go with the flow. That's her way of surviving as a rogue cultivator.

Just like when Youying came to find her, she didn't actually want to join a major sect. Wouldn't it be better to be a powerful elder in a small sect?

Finally, considering that the Ghost Emperor's legacy was on her shoulders and that there were some things she couldn't escape, she accepted the corpse demon sent by Jiang Yi and, out of respect for Jiang Yi, became You Ying's disciple and joined the New Cangling Sect.

Shen Puning held the shrunken pearl, hesitant to speak, for she had now lost the right to be willful.

This trip to the Southern Wilderness made her understand responsibility. The entire tribe was proud of her, relied on her, and regarded her as their faith. Shen Puning could not let down those eyes.

This is the price of growing up, the price of being given abilities by nature.

Shen Puning cast a guilty look at Jiang Yi, who responded with a gentle smile and shook her head slightly to indicate that it was alright.

Bai Shengjie glanced around and, seeing that no one spoke, straightened his back and said, “I think we should go to Beixuan! The Dan Emperor’s inheritance of the Yuqing Sect was not something I actively seized. Rather, it was something that ran out of the ruins on its own when Beixuan was destroyed and the earth cracked, and it landed on me. I suppose many of you have the same situation as me.”

“Since the will of the Nine Emperors has chosen us, there must be something about us that is related to them. This is something I care about, and I want to find out. Besides, the rise and fall of the world is something we cultivators are all involved in. Escaping is only temporary. If there is an opportunity to turn the tide and completely eliminate the demonic scourge, I do not want to give up such an opportunity.”

Squeak!

The little monkey on Bai Shengjie's shoulder waved its pestle excitedly, indicating its agreement with Bai Shengjie's idea.

Bai Shengjie, also known as "Poisonous Hands and Sacred Heart," is a medical cultivator whose methods of healing are so brutal and unorthodox that he is often regarded as an evil cultivator. Some even think that no evil cultivator is as evil as him, but his "sacred heart" has never been fake.

Back then, he fought alongside Jiang Yi on the front lines of Beixuan against the demonic tide. No matter how dangerous the situation, he never backed down. As a medical cultivator, he often appeared on the most dangerous front lines.

Mo Ling took a deep breath. "Me too. When the earth cracked, a divine thought took the initiative to land on me and passed on the Yan Emperor's method. Although I still don't understand much about those things, I can't escape this cause and effect. I also have a younger brother, Mo Liao. Although he is not very promising, he is still a legitimate member of the Mo family and can continue the Mo family's heritage. It's not that I am indispensable. If you decide to go, I will go with you."

Everyone's eyes immediately turned to the last remaining three: Yan Kongqing, Shen Puning, and Hua Luosha.

Shen Puning lowered her head and kneaded the pearl. Hua Luosha raised her chin and gestured for her to listen to Jiang Yi. Yan Kongqing tensed up, showing a desire to back down.

Bai Shengjie snorted coldly, “Yan Kongqing, speaking of which, the sudden and unexpected collapse of the Beixuan Society made it impossible for the Beixuan Immortal Alliance’s plan to preserve its flame to evacuate. Your Liujing Sect should bear most of the responsibility!”

Yan Kongqing's face turned ashen, and Mo Ling, recalling this matter, also showed a hint of anger on her face.

After the Cangling Sect was rebuilt, the elders in the sect were kind and understanding, and no one ever mentioned this matter.

But everyone still remembers that back then, it was because the Liujing Sect was in such a hurry to plunder the relics of their sect that they broke the relics prematurely, causing the nine seals to become unbalanced. The Northern Profound Immortal Alliance had to accelerate its progress and begin transferring its elite disciples. And the fact that the relics of the Liujing Sect could be broken ahead of schedule was all thanks to Yan Kongqing, that genius of array formations!

Yan Kongqing immediately retorted, "I didn't know it would lead to this result. I was just following the sect's orders; I had no other choice!"

Bai Shengjie was blunt, "Since that's the case, you should make amends now, instead of watching so many people die because of your Liujing Sect and still acting like a coward here!"

Bai Shengjie was cursing Yan Kongqing, but Shen Puning shrank back, and even Baozhu turned her head and shrank into Shen Puning's arms, with her back to everyone.

Shang Shixu sighed silently, Mo Ling glared at Yan Kongqing, and Hua Luosha looked like she was watching a good show. Only after being glanced at by Jiang Yi did she suppress the smile on her lips.

Yan Kongqing clenched his fists and couldn't speak, so Jiang Yi had to step in.

"Today is not the time to assign blame, but since we've boarded this ship, we can't escape the consequences. Let's vote by raising our hands. The minority shall obey the majority. Those who agree to go to Beixuan, please raise your hands."

As soon as Jiang Yi finished speaking, Bai Shengjie was the first to raise his hand, followed by Shang Shixu, and Mo Ling also raised her hand. Hua Luosha looked at Jiang Yi, and after a moment of hesitation, Jiang Yi raised his hand. Hua Luosha then limply raised her hand.

Under the pressure from the crowd, Yan Kongqing's features scrunched up, but he still raised his hand.

In the end, only Shen Puning remained. When everyone looked over, Shen Puning trembled, and Baozhu immediately disappeared into the ground.

Before Bai Shengjie could question her, Shen Puning hurriedly said, "I...I don't mean I don't want to go, I just...I just...need some time to prepare."

Shen Puning's eyes reddened with anxiety. She looked at Jiang Yi with pleading eyes and quickly tried to explain telepathically.

Jiang Yi then realized that Shen Puning's mother had started again, demanding that Shen Puning inherit the position of tribal chief, or give birth to a girl with barbarian bones like herself, otherwise Shen Puning would not be allowed to go anywhere.

Shen Puning's return to Cangling Sect this time was a short vacation that she had begged for a long time to obtain.

Jiang Yi temporarily skipped Shen Puning's question, "Now that the decision has been made, let's talk about the next issue. We have no idea what the current situation is in Bei Xuan. I will go to the Refinement Star Lords of the three major sword sects to inquire about this matter and try to gather as much information as possible."

"With our current cultivation level, going back would almost certainly mean certain death. Now that things have come to this, I will no longer hide it. My inner fire is special and can resist the erosion of demonic energy and demonic thoughts, but I can only protect two people at most."

Bai Shengjie spoke first, his expression frank: "There's no need to worry about that. There is a pill in the Dan Emperor's inheritance that can resist demonic energy. It's just that the materials are hard to find. Many of them are ancient varieties. The amount I've collected is only enough for about ten people for a year, and it can't be widely distributed yet."

Mo Ling continued, "I can handle the flying magic weapon for crossing the demonic tide and the sea. As for the blueprints for the Yan Emperor, well... Senior Sister Jiang, could you lend me the Broken Gold to research and manufacture it together?"

Jiang Yi nodded and then said to Bai Shengjie, "The Azure Emperor left behind a cauldron that has the ability to cultivate spiritual plants. If Junior Brother Bai trusts me, you can give me a portion of the seeds of those medicinal herbs, and I will try to help you cultivate them in large quantities."

Bai Shengjie's eyes lit up, "Great!"

With everyone working together, Hua Luosha, unusually, took the initiative to speak, "I have a way to conceal the aura of your souls so that the demonic tide cannot recognize you, making it safer to cross the demonic tide."

“I also have similar Gu worms,” Shang Shixu said.

Seeing this, Yan Kongqing said weakly, "If you still trust me, I will carve the runes on the flying magic weapon."

Although the Nine Emperors were ruthless, each of them possessed extraordinary abilities. The legacy they left behind could not protect all living beings and the myriad paths of life, but it could ensure their safe return to the Northern Mystic to uncover everything.

After the discussion was settled, everyone went back to prepare. Shen Puning stayed behind last, and as soon as everyone left, she grabbed Jiang Yi and burst into tears.
