One person: Starting with the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, his grandmaster uncle emerges from seclusion.

She looked down at the steaming, even slightly hot, roasted sweet potato.

She couldn't remember how many years it had been since she had eaten such ordinary human food.

She hesitated for a moment, then extended her slender fingers to take it.

I took a small, gentle bite.

It's piping hot, sweet, and does indeed have a strange numbing sensation.

"How is it? Not bad, right?" Zhang Tianyi took a bite himself, and hissed as it was so hot.

"Ah."

Liu Tianxian lowered her eyes, a slight smile curving her lips.

"It's very sweet."

The wind and snow continued to howl over Changbai Mountain, but on this small patch of ice warmed by thunder and lightning...

A proud young Taoist priest, a cold and aloof female immortal, and an old hedgehog with a face covered in black ash from eating a sweet potato.

It created an extremely eerie yet incredibly peaceful scene.

The cruel world outside, ravaged by war, seemed to be completely shut out by the aroma of roasted sweet potatoes at this moment.

……

however.

At the same time.

In a small town.

The rain was pouring down.

It was as if a thick curtain of water had been hung between heaven and earth.

In a small courtyard.

Zhang Zhiwei was wearing only a thin white undershirt and was slurping up a bowl of clear soup noodles with chili oil.

He looks to be in his early thirties.

He was tall and robust, and his face, which always had his eyes half-closed, carried a sharp and domineering quality that had not yet been completely worn down by the years.

"Suck it..."

Zhang Zhiwei picked up a mouthful of noodles, ate it with a clove of garlic, and sweated profusely as he ate.

Just as he was about to pick up the bowl and finish all the noodle soup.

"Click".

A faint cracking sound came from his arms.

Zhang Zhiwei's movements suddenly stopped.

His usually squinting, narrow eyes suddenly snapped open!

An immense, terrifying pressure, almost tangible, poured uncontrollably from his towering body!

"Tick...tick..."

The rainwater that was originally slanting down the eaves and hitting the window frame.

Faced with this immense and incomprehensible aura, it actually made a sharp turn in mid-air!

He was forcibly forced to stand three feet outside the window!

Zhang Zhiwei slowly put down the large, rough porcelain bowl in his hand.

He reached into his robes, his eyes blazing as he stared intently at several life-binding talismans.

That is the life talisman of a core disciple of the Celestial Master's Mansion.

When they went down the mountain, the brothers all carried something with them.

now.

The talisman representing Song Yuntao's fate has been completely shattered.

It had lost all its luster and looked lifeless.

The other talisman next to it is engraved with "Zhang Tianyi".

The situation is even more horrifying!

It wasn't broken, but the entire talisman was trembling wildly.

The light was dim, and wisps of smoke were even rising from the edges!

"Old Eight... is gone."

Zhang Zhiwei's voice was extremely low.

There were no furious roars, nor any heart-wrenching cries.

But the chilling murderous intent in his tone was enough to terrify any wandering ghosts within a ten-mile radius.

"The second son is also in trouble."

Without any hesitation, Zhang Zhiwei quickly made several hand gestures in front of his chest.

"Dragon Cloud Valley..."

Zhang Zhiwei calculated the location, grabbed a blue Taoist robe draped over the screen, and haphazardly put it on.

He walked to the door and pulled an oiled paper umbrella from the umbrella basket behind the door.

"Squeak."

The door was pushed open and then slammed shut.

In the darkness of night.

In heavy rain.

Zhang Jingqing, the 64th Celestial Master of the Celestial Master's Mansion.

He was holding a black umbrella and standing in the very center of the courtyard.

He looked at his eldest apprentice who came out of the side room, his brows furrowed tightly.

"stop!"

Zhang Jingqing's voice pierced through the rain:

"Zhiwei, where are you headed with that murderous aura?"

Chapter 360 Daoist Master, I'll only take what's rightfully mine! The rules of the Celestial Master's Mansion!

On the ice surface of Tianchi Lake in Changbai Mountain.

The purple lightning was burning brightly, making a crackling sound.

Zhang Tianyi devoured the enormous roasted sweet potato in just a few bites.

He smacked his lips, feeling that the little bit of oil in his stomach hadn't really filled him up much.

then.

His eyes darted around and naturally fixed on Bai Shoushan, who was squatting next to him, happily munching on the other half of a sweet potato.

"Cough cough."

Zhang Tianyi cleared his throat and moved closer to the old hedgehog.

"Old Bai."

Zhang Tianyi spoke earnestly, with an expression that said, "I'm doing this for your own good."

"Look at you, you're getting on in years, your teeth must not be as strong as they used to be, right? This sweet potato is a bit too dry, it'll stick to your teeth."

"Besides, shouldn't you hedgehogs eat more insects to supplement your protein intake? Eating this starchy stuff will easily make you fat."

Bai Shoushan paused in his act of eating a sweet potato.

Its two small, black bean-like eyes stared warily at Zhang Tianyi, and its two front paws instinctively protected the sweet potato closer to its chest.

“My benefactor, you’re such a chatterbox. Our Bai family are proper cultivators, and we haven’t eaten raw food for a long time.”

The old hedgehog shook its head like a rattle drum:

"Besides, I dug this out of the snow. I have great teeth; I can crush a walnut in one bite!"

Don't be stubborn.

Zhang Tianyi not only didn't give up, but instead reached out and put his hand directly on Bai Shoushan's shoulder, grinning mischievously.

"I, Daoist Master, am a man who knows the importance of respecting the elderly and caring for the young. How about this: you give me this half, and when we get down the mountain, I'll treat you to a hearty Northeastern stew!"

"no!"

Bai Shoushan panicked and turned around, pointing the thorn from his back at Zhang Tianyi:

"You've already eaten most of it! With the mountains blocked by heavy snow, where am I supposed to find more?"

"My benefactor, you are a highly accomplished person, how could you possibly be fighting with a hedgehog for food?!"

"Hey! You old codger, you were just calling me your benefactor, and now you're turning your back on me over a sweet potato, huh?"

Zhang Tianyi rolled up his sleeves, making a move to snatch it:

"Give it to me! I just used up so much of my true energy to remove the poison, what's wrong with eating a piece of your sweet potato?"

A human and a hedgehog were actually pulling at each other in the snow for half a roasted sweet potato, completely disregarding their image.

Sitting opposite her, Liu Tianxian held a small piece of still-steaming sweet potato in her hand.

She watched the chaotic scene unfold before her.

That usually icy and beautiful face finally couldn't hold back any longer.

His lips curved upwards, and his shoulders trembled slightly.

"Pfft..."
