In front of a cave on the back mountain of Hancheng.
A muscular, burly man looked helplessly at the cave emitting white light and said, "Brother He, what exactly is this light barrier? It's so strange. We always end up walking in the opposite direction without realizing it."
Behind them, a thin man wearing an eye patch replied, "I don't understand. We've been trying here for three days and three nights, and we still can't break it open. I think we should give up."
These two people are none other than the Tiger and Crane Immortals who killed Dongfang Yuechu's entire family back then!
Since they witnessed Dongfang Yuechu's "tragic death" in the Tushan battle nine years ago, the two have continued to roam around, committing all sorts of evil deeds.
Finally, after going too far a while ago and being targeted by the Qi Dao Alliance, the two fled to this godforsaken lawless place to escape the Qi Dao Alliance's pursuit. They happened to pass by here and discovered this hidden cave, but the white light barrier at the cave entrance blocked them outside.
However, based on their years of experience in "treasure hunting", there must be something good inside. But the current situation is just like when Dongfang Yuechu entered the Tushan territory back then, and this white light shield is just like Tushan Honghong, which makes the two of them grit their teeth in hatred.
"No way! The treasure is right in front of me, and I can't just let it leave like this!" Tiger Immortal disagreed with Crane Immortal's statement, and it seemed that he was prepared to fight this light barrier to the death.
But thinking about it, it makes sense. Those two hotheads stayed outside Tushan City for a whole year just to wait for Dongfang Yuechu. Tsk tsk, such patience would make them a ninja turtle on Earth—they can endure so much!
So he refused to believe it and went inside again. But from Crane Immortal's perspective, Tiger Immortal went astray and walked around in a big circle before coming straight out again.
"Sigh, this is really strange." Crane Immortal shook his head, ignoring Tiger Immortal who was raging beside him, and said helplessly.
"The really weird stuff is here!"
The two were shocked upon hearing this, exchanged a panicked glance, and assumed that it was the people from the One Qi Alliance who were hunting them coming to their door.
In the shade of the trees, Zhuge Ming slowly walked up to the Tiger and Crane Immortals, waving his Qiankun Fan as he did so, like a refined gentleman.
"Gentlemen, how have you been?"
"Who are you? Have we met before?" The Tiger and Crane Immortals breathed a sigh of relief when they realized that the pursuers were not from the One Qi Alliance, but upon closer inspection, they found that the young man in front of them looked extremely familiar, as if they had seen him somewhere before.
"You two really have short memories, don't you? Well then, let me remind you: nine years ago, outside Tushan, Dongfang Yuechu!!!" Zhuge Ming's tone grew increasingly cold, and the surrounding temperature seemed to drop several degrees.
Upon hearing this, the Tiger and Crane Immortals' pupils contracted, both realizing who this young man was. After all, the battle at Tushan had left a deep impression on them, and they had never approached Tushan again since. The scene of walking the "Royal Road" was still vivid in their minds...
"So it's you, kid. You managed to escape back in Tushan, but what are you doing here now? Coming to die with us?" After recognizing Zhuge Ming, Hu Xian's words became increasingly audacious. In his view, this guy who should have died in Tushan with that little bastard Dongfang Yuechu back then was tired of living and dared to come looking for them.
Zhuge Ming wasn't angry at all. He still had his unchanging smile on his face and said sarcastically, "No, no, no, you two don't misunderstand. How could I dare to come and cause trouble for you two? Someone else is here to see you."
As they spoke, Dongfang Yuechu and Tushan Yaya stepped out from behind Zhuge Ming.
"You are... the second-in-command of Tushan?!" Crane Fairy exclaimed in disbelief, as if she had seen a ghost.
He didn't recognize the drastically changed Dongfang Yuechu, but he did recognize Tushan Yaya. But that makes sense, after all, nine years have passed, and Dongfang Yuechu's changes are like night and day. Putting aside everything else, those two cockroach-like ahoge on his head weren't even as long as they are now nine years ago. It would be strange if they could recognize him.
However, Tu Shan Ya Ya has remained virtually unchanged over the past nine years, so the two recognized her quite easily.
Zhuge Ming secretly glanced at Tu Shan Ya Ya.
Yes, I can tell from their eyes, it's already quite large, there's no room for change!
I need to ask for leave again and again.
Ahem, the usual rules, you know what I mean~~ (manual sarcasm (*^_^*)0)

Chapter 43 "The Terrifying Dongfang Yuechu"
"No way, you can still recognize me even after I've changed like this?" Tu Shan Ya Ya asked in surprise.
The Tiger and Crane Immortals didn't answer, but cold sweat kept pouring down their foreheads, because in their eyes, Tu Shan Ya Ya's presence meant that Tu Shan Hong Hong, that evil star, was also here!
So the two of them knelt down without hesitation, shouting without raising their heads, "Your Majesty, spare our lives!!! Please spare our lives, considering that we haven't set foot in Tushan for so many years."
The air in the woods suddenly became quiet, and the atmosphere suddenly became very subtle. Zhuge Ming and the other two were all shocked by this move by the two.
"Good heavens, so just how much psychological trauma did Sister Hong Hong leave on these two guys back then? They started to back down before they even met. That's terrifying!" Zhuge Ming thought speechlessly.
"Hmph! I don't have time to bother with you two little characters!" Tu Shan Ya Ya snorted unhappily.
Upon hearing that Tu Shan Honghong was not there, the Tiger and Crane Immortals instantly felt their backs straighten, their legs stop aching, and they spoke with more confidence!
"A nobody? Little girl, we Tiger and Crane Immortals are well-known figures in the martial arts world. You think you can cause trouble for us with just a few of you? You're asking for death!" Tiger Immortal quickly got up from the ground and was about to strike first.
Goodness, you guys are something else! Your face-changing speed is comparable to Sichuan opera. No wonder you've survived for so long with what you've done. I'm impressed!
Seeing this, Zhuge Ming waved his hands repeatedly and pointed to Dongfang Yuechu, who was barely able to contain his anger, and said, "Hey, hey, hey, please don't misunderstand. How could the three of us dare to cause you trouble? The only one who wants to cause you trouble is him!"
Tiger Immortal paused, then followed Zhuge Ming's finger and scrutinized Dongfang Yuechu. After staring at the ahoge (cowlick) on his head for several seconds, Tiger Immortal suddenly realized.
"So it was you! Dongfang Yuechu, weren't you killed by the fox demons of Tushan back then?"
Ha, so the ahoge (cowlick) on Dongfang Yuechu's head is his true form, isn't it?
"Brother Tiger, since he can appear together with the second leader of Tushan, don't you understand yet? It seems that Tushan deceived us and the Yi Qi Dao Alliance back then!"
Sure enough, Tiger Immortal's mind was already filled with muscle, and Crane Immortal saw through the trick at a glance.
"You two beasts, you killed my entire family for my Eastern bloodline back then, today I will make you pay for your blood debt!!"
Dongfang Yuechu was furious, his face contorted with rage. He covered his hands with divine fire, stomped his foot, and charged toward Hu Xian at a speed almost invisible to the naked eye.
Tiger Immortal's pupils contracted. Dongfang Yuechu's speed was simply too fast. Before he could react, the fist was already in front of him.
"Brother Tiger, be careful! Get out of the way! This kid is wielding the Pure Yang Flame, the Demon-Slaying Divine Fire!!!" Crane Immortal shouted anxiously from the side.
That being said, there was no time for Tiger Immortal to dodge Dongfang Yuechu's punch, so he had no choice but to grit his teeth and exchange a punch with Dongfang Yuechu.
"boom!!"
A wave of fire spread out in all directions, and the two of them retreated. Then, Zhuge Ming and Tu Shan Ya Ya behind them heard the Tiger Immortal's shrill scream.
It turned out that the divine fire on Dongfang Yuechu's body had spread from his fist to Hu Xian's entire arm, instantly roasting it and even spreading towards his body.
The power of that single punch was terrifying! What a demon-slaying divine fire! What a master of Dongfang Yuechu!
"Sister Ya Ya, can you smell it? It smells so good!" Zhuge Ming turned to Tu Shan Ya Ya and said.
Tu Shan Ya Ya sniffed, deliberately making a disgusted expression, and retorted, "Where did this fragrance come from? I clearly smell a stench!"
Upon hearing this, Zhuge Ming laughed heartily. He immediately stopped standing, pulled Tu Shan Ya Ya to sit down on the ground, and took out some meat, bowls, and chopsticks from his Qiankun Fan, along with Tu Shan Ya Ya's Endless Wine Pot. (To avoid attracting attention, Ya Ya's Endless Wine Pot was always kept inside Zhuge Ming's Qiankun Fan.)
"Come on, Ya Ya, I bet you're hungry. Want something to eat?"
"Wow, you silly boy, you actually hid so much delicious food! Why didn't you bring it out sooner? Honestly!" Tu Shan Ya Ya didn't stand on ceremony with Zhuge Ming and immediately started to eat heartily. After all, Tu Shan Ya Ya had suffered these past few days in order to find the Tiger and Crane Immortals as soon as possible.
Zhuge Ming smiled slightly, without touching his chopsticks, but took out a bowl and poured a small bowl of wine for Tu Shan Ya Ya with the Endless Wine Pot, saying affectionately, "Sister Ya Ya, eat slowly."
"Waaaaah, waaaaah, waaaaah! (No, wow, you idiot, you're so kind!)" Tu Shan Ya Ya's mouth was full of food. When she saw the bowl that Zhuge Ming handed her, she nodded with satisfaction and answered indistinctly, as if to say, "You're a good kid."
"Waaaaah, there it is! (Go, you stinky cockroach!)"
………………
When Dongfang Yuechu caught a glimpse of the two guys behind him out of the corner of his eye, he instantly felt like he had made two ungrateful friends.
I was furiously seeking revenge in front of everyone, and these two were actually eating and drinking in the back! This is absolutely intolerable!
So Dongfang Yuechu felt he should unleash his fury and let these two know just how angry he was. He turned around and said fiercely, "Hey, you two!"
Leave me some…
Okay, that's very much like Dongfang Yuechu. He has no bottom line when it comes to food. I've seen it all.
Amidst the laughter and chatter, on the other hand, Crane Immortal stepped forward and looked at Tiger Immortal's arm with a worried expression.
"Brother Tiger, what's wrong with you?"
Tiger Immortal was in so much pain that sweat poured down his forehead. He glared fiercely at Dongfang Yuechu, then looked at the Pure Yang Flame that was still spreading on his arm. With a heavy heart, he cut off the arm that was already useless!
"What a brave man cutting off his own arm! I remember you also cut off this arm nine years ago in Tushan, tsk tsk, doesn't it hurt?" Dongfang Yuechu said leisurely.
"Brother Tiger, this kid is incredibly powerful now. We're no match for him. The best course of action now is to leave this dangerous place as soon as possible and take revenge later."
When He Xian saw Dongfang Yuechu cripple Hu Xian's arm with a single punch, he immediately realized that the Dongfang Yuechu before him was no longer the Dongfang Yuechu who had been chased to the brink of despair by them back then. The current Dongfang Yuechu was very strong!
Tiger Immortal, enduring the pain, glanced at Dongfang Yuechu with resentment, but he also understood that Crane Immortal was right; if they didn't leave soon, they would all probably die here.
So he raised his remaining arm and shouted, pretending to be desperate, "You brat, take this combo attack!!"
Dongfang Yuechu quickly focused on getting into position to receive the attack. After all, the Tiger and Crane Immortals' cooperation was not just as simple as one plus one equals two. The two had been acting together for many years and their cooperation was extremely tacit. The strength they unleashed when they joined forces was not to be underestimated.
But just as Dongfang Yuechu was ready to receive the attack, the Tiger and Crane Immortals ran off in the opposite direction, leaving Dongfang Yuechu standing there dumbfounded.
"Hahahaha, you stinky cockroach, how could you be so stupid?" From behind, Tu Shan Ya Ya saw Dongfang Yuechu being tricked, quickly swallowed the food in her mouth, and mocked him happily.
Dongfang Yuechu did not refute Tushan Yaya, and exerted his strength to chase after her.
Zhuge Ming, however, was not in a hurry at all. Instead, he said to Dongfang Yuechu, who was in a hurry to leave, "Don't rush, come, come, Yuechu, have some. There's still some fine wine from Sister Ya Ya! If you don't come soon, we'll finish eating!"
As he spoke, Zhuge Ming stood up, formed hand seals, and a sharp glint appeared in his eyes. He confidently declared, "Don't worry, they can't escape!"
Chapter Forty-Four: "A Flower in a Mirror, a Moon in the Water"
In the woods, the Tiger and Crane Immortals were running for their lives, much like Dongfang Yuechu's escape years ago.
"Brother Tiger, why didn't that kid catch up?"
"Who cares? Maybe he's been stunned by us and is still standing there dumbfounded!"
Crane Fairy instinctively sensed that something was amiss. Their escape was far too easy, so easy that it sent chills down Crane Fairy's spine.
Tiger Immortal didn't think as much as Crane Immortal; all he could think about was how to avenge the humiliation of losing his arm after he escaped.
But as they ran, the two of them gradually came to a stop.
"Brother Crane, where is this place?"
Tiger Fairy rubbed her eyes in disbelief, seemingly unable to accept what she was seeing.
Crane Immortal was also stunned. The scene before them was all too familiar to them. This was the border of Tushan where they had chased Dongfang Yuechu ten years ago!
Although ten years have passed, the scene of Tu Shan Hong Hong's crushing defeat here is still vivid in their minds.
"Tushan is under my protection, understand?"
In that instant, the Tiger and Crane Immortals seemed to hear Tu Shan Hong Hong's domineering words again, and the two of them couldn't help but shiver coldly.
Gazing at the familiar border and boundary markers before him, Tiger Immortal shook his head violently, deceiving himself as he said to Crane Immortal, "Impossible! This must be an illusion. We were just in Hancheng, how could we suddenly be in Tushan? This is impossible!?"
Crane Immortal nodded in agreement, he too couldn't believe such a thing could happen.
However, the memory of crossing the line had left such a deep scar on the two of them that they dared not make any further moves for a while.
