destiny eternal calamity

Chapter 22 The disguise almost fell off

Before a martial artist reaches the Spirit Bridge realm, their body must draw nourishment from the five grains.

Once inside the Spirit Bridge, the need for food will be greatly reduced.

If one can reach the Divine Treasury Realm and transform the five internal organs into Divine Treasury, one can absorb the five elements of heaven and earth and thus completely abstain from grains.

Li Wei didn't know Yan Xueshang's martial arts level, but since her meridians were all broken, she definitely needed to replenish her energy through diet.

He instructed the cook in his household to stew a pot of chicken soup, and then made some pastries according to his instructions, packed them in a food box, and brought them back.

It was only noon, and the small courtyard was still being tidied up.

Shang Xueyan temporarily hid in his room, lying on Xiao Shuying's bed to recover from her injuries.

"Miss Yan, let's have dinner together."

Shang Xueyan was currently reading the "Da Li Weekly" carefully.

This is the sample copy that Li Wei brought back.

When she saw Li Wei lay out chicken soup and pastries, she realized that she seemed to have lost all her cultivation and was no longer a true fairy untouched by the cycle of reincarnation.

Without much hesitation, I accepted the fact that I had become a mortal again and needed to eat, drink, and relieve myself.

Since things have come to this, let's eat first...

At this moment, Xiao Shuying, who had just disappeared for a while, reappeared in the room.

"I just went out to inquire, and there was indeed a prison break this morning. The main culprit should be a man with the Void Realm strength, whose origins are unknown."

"He was discovered by Daoist Yang Xuzi as soon as he entered the prison and fled in panic, so we don't know who his target is."

Xiao Shuying didn't use telepathy, but spoke directly, so Shang Xueyan heard it too.

At the same time, she transmitted her voice to Li Wei: "This is the information I found out from Xiao Die, it's the exact words reported by the prison."

Xiao Die was sent here by Long Bilin to be in charge of relaying messages. She usually lived like a maid in the Li family, but in reality, she was a member of the Yuzhen Guard.

"Miss Yan, did you come here with that Void Realm cultivator to break into the prison?"

Li Wei looked at Shang Xueyan, who was drinking chicken soup, and asked her a question.

Shang Xueyan's mind was racing at that moment.

She had been thinking that she might have to reveal her true identity to Li Wei and the others.

Because she hadn't planned to stay to recover from her injuries, she took the initiative to tell Li Wei that she had committed a prison break.

Therefore, as long as Li Wei learns that the target of tonight's prison break is Yun Mingyu, the grandmaster of the Kongsang Sect, his true identity will be exposed.

Beautiful, powerful, and connected to the Kongsang Sect, who else could it be but Shang Xueyan?

However, it seems that Yang Xuzi has not made this public.

Although Shang Xueyan disguised herself as a prison guard using the Myriad Transformations Formless Technique and did not reveal her true identity, Yang Xuzi was certainly able to guess her true identity.

As a result, Yang Xuzi not only failed to report the matter, but also concealed the fact that the person she was rescuing was Yun Mingyu.

This is not hard to understand. Yang Xuzi had already let Shang Xueyan get to the very bottom of the prison before he discovered that someone was trying to break in. This was already a serious dereliction of duty.

As a result, he also let Shang Xueyan, an important figure, escape.

Given Shang Xueyan's reputation, if he reported the truth, the matter would probably spread throughout the world within a day.

So Yang Xuzi simply lied and said that the other party had just entered the prison when he was discovered, and then he escaped.

This is the most reliable work report.

Shang Xueyan figured out the ins and outs in an instant, and then she realized that her disguise was safe.

"Yes, we come from Guixu Cave Heaven. We've come here to rescue my martial uncle."

"Guixu Cave Heaven, how come I've never heard of it..." Li Wei searched his memory and confirmed that he had never seen this sect before.

"We are an overseas secret sect, it's normal that you haven't heard of us," Shang Xueyan said without batting an eye.

"This time, my master led the team, and we were waiting outside to provide backup. Unexpectedly, my master was discovered as soon as he entered the prison, and we were also surrounded."

"I used a secret technique to forcibly squeeze out my true energy in order to escape, but it also caused all the meridians in my body to be severed."

Shang Xueyan's words were obviously nonsense. Her master was a woman, and she had been dead for more than ten years.

Li Wei had some doubts, but Yan Xueshang was in a foreign land, so it was normal for her to conceal her background. If he pressed her for details, he would be being rather tactless.

"Why is Miss Yan's martial aunt in the Heavenly Prison of Dali?"

At this moment, Xiao Shuying, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly asked.

She noticed that Li Wei had a crush on Yan Xueshang, which is why she decided to help him save the girl.

But the premise must be to ensure that the interests of Da Li, or rather Long Bilin, are not harmed.

Therefore, these key points still need to be clarified, and at least Yan Xueshang needs to provide a reasonable explanation.

"Forty years ago, he acted impulsively, insisting on participating in the struggle for the throne of Dali out of brotherhood."

"As a result, his sworn brother, who was also the second elder brother of the current emperor of Dali, was defeated. He then became a prisoner."

"He was originally the direct descendant of our sect, and there was a martial arts technique that only he knew. If he is imprisoned in the Dali Heavenly Prison, this technique will be lost."

This time, everything Shang Xueyan said was true.

If it weren't for that cultivation technique, she wouldn't have wanted to come and save this damned martial uncle.

He was a man from Wei, who came to Li Kingdom to support the emperor for his brother. He was defeated, but he refused to surrender, causing the sect's lineage to be broken.

She only came to rescue people after her cultivation breakthrough confirmed that she could use spatial teleportation.

Unexpectedly, Yun Mingyu failed to cooperate at the crucial moment, almost causing her to perish.

Shang Xueyan now harbors a deep resentment towards her martial uncle, whom she had never even met before, who had given her a hard time on their first meeting.

She dared to tell the truth because she knew about the struggle for the throne forty years ago, a fact that was probably only known to the emperor himself and a few loyal ministers like Yang Xuzi in Dali.

Even if the person in front of him was a prince of Dali, he would not dare to ask the emperor about the fratricidal conflict of yesteryear.

Li Wei and Xiao Shuying exchanged a glance. Xiao Shuying shook her head, indicating that the Princess's residence was also unaware of this past event.

"Miss Yan, so you're saying that the reason you came to the Great Li Prison is simply to retrieve your sect's secret cultivation techniques, and you have no other purpose?"

"Yes, if that cultivation technique weren't so crucial to Guixu Cave Heaven, we wouldn't have planned this operation for that absurd senior uncle. Our sect is isolated overseas and has no hostility towards Dali."

"Then Miss Yan should focus on recovering from her injuries. If the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up. This kind of thing is something your master, a Void Realm cultivator, will handle. There's no need to put too much pressure on yourself."

Shang Xueyan nodded slightly, but inwardly she smiled bitterly.

She's the tallest in the Kongsang Sect now. If she doesn't take the lead, who else can?

After finishing lunch, she continued reading the newspaper.

The newspaper in Dali is quite interesting; it not only has news about the martial arts world, but also two ranking lists.

But when she turned to the last page, she found herself ranked third on the list of most beautiful flowers.

Third on the Hundred Flowers Ranking, Shang Xueyan. "This woman is like a fairy descended to earth, her beauty unparalleled in the world. It's a pity that she cares too much about sect affairs, and her worldly desires are hard to sever. She lacks a bit of carefree freedom, like a bird in a cage." — Lord of Ten Thousand Demons.

"Bai Ranran!"

Shang Xueyan had no idea when that demoness had made her comments, and how the news had even reached Dali.

Moreover, that enchantress herself was so alluring, yet she didn't make it onto the list of beauties.

To this, Shang Xueyan can only say that it's a completely unofficial ranking.
