Chapter 936: Chapter 371: Ji Qianqian

Chu Xisheng walked about twenty miles in the mist before seeing a few figures led by Wen Zhiyi ahead.

The ice bridge beneath their feet seemed to have encountered some obstacle and could no longer extend forward.

Wen Zhiyi stood with her hands behind her back, her beautiful head slightly downturned as if she were looking down at what lay ahead.

When Chu Xisheng approached, he discovered that at the front of the ice bridge, strands of Thunder Power were constantly emerging, shattering the Cold Ice Wen Zhiyi had condensed.

Wen Zhiyi watched this scene expressionlessly, her gaze as deep as an endless abyss.

Chu Xisheng concentrated, trying to discern the source of these thunders.

He frowned: “This thunder seems a bit like the Heavenly Punishment Thunderstorm magic that Divine Turtle Wanderer taught us?”

Except this thunderstorm power was too strong, even Wen Zhiyi seemed helpless against it.

Chu Xisheng shook his head slightly, thinking it couldn’t be.

Earlier outside the Immortal Palace, Wen Zhiyi almost forced the entire Cloud Sea Immortal Palace’s Forbidden Technique to be annihilated.

He turned his head and curiously asked: “Senior Ween, is there some difficulty that keeps you here?”

Chu Xisheng couldn’t understand why Wen Zhiyi would secretly assist him in the mist battle and even leave an ice bridge for him to cross.

However, he knew Wen Zhiyi was showing goodwill towards him and was willing to acknowledge her kindness.

Zhangsun Bingquan’s expression darkened upon hearing this: “How dare you! What in the world could challenge His Highness?”

Wen Zhiyi gave Zhangsun Bingquan a sidelong glance, then looked up at the ‘Two Books of Precepts’ high in the sky.

This place was shrouded in dense fog, and even with Wen Zhiyi’s eyesight, she could only clearly see the area twenty-five miles around.

Yet, the brilliant golden light emitted by the Divine Law and Divine Prohibition books could still pierce through layers of thick mist, illuminating the area.

Wen Zhiyi appeared thoughtful: “It is the power of the Decree, anyone trying to force through here will encounter a Heavenly Law Thunderstorm. It seems these Two Books of Precepts have another master.”

Chu Xisheng was first taken aback by these words, then narrowed his eyes: “Senior Ween, could the master of these Two Books of Precepts still be alive?”

His companions also furrowed their brows.

“That is not the case. But the power of thunder here is very strong, complete with Heavenly Rules, indicating that this person’s status was very high before death, probably a super-grade or even a fallen god.

Furthermore, it is not just the legacy of the Divine Turtle Wanderer here, but also his. One could even say the main reason Divine Turtle Wanderer opened Secret Realms across the Thirty-Six States to select young talents was for him. Isn’t that reasonable?

From Divine Turtle Wanderer’s personality in life, he was malicious and wouldn’t care about what happens after his death, leaving everything behind. He was a loner who didn’t care whether his Martial Arts and Magic had successors, nor would he care who inherited his wealth.”

Wen Zhiyi said this, casting a sidelong glance at the thoughtful Chu Xisheng: “I will lead my men to force through the thunderstorm soon, unable to attend to you. Be careful yourselves, and you can call me City Lord.”

Chu Xisheng couldn’t help but tug at his eyebrows.

Was Wen Zhiyi dissatisfied with the way he addressed her?

He immediately relaxed with a smile.

Indeed, women of all ages are always concerned about their age, regardless of the era.

Behind them, Zhangsun Bingquan frowned deeply.

Even if he were daft, he could see that Wen Zhiyi treated Chu Xisheng differently.

This One Sword Overturning City didn’t allow anyone on her ice bridge, yet could speak kindly to Chu Xisheng.

Zhangsun Bingquan was a blood relative of Wen Zhiyi.

Yet Wen Zhiyi was nicer to Chu Xisheng than to him.

“Why force through? Earlier, Divine Turtle has already hinted that to pass here, one needs specific magic or a specific Bloodline Talent.”

Chu Yunyun suddenly stepped out from the crowd to the front end of the ice bridge, standing next to Wen Zhiyi.

Zhangsun Bingquan was already feeling uncomfortable, extremely displeased.

Upon hearing this, he couldn’t help but become more irate: “You think we haven’t tried? Among us six, three have mastered ‘One Word Becomes a Proverb’, and three have practiced ‘Heavenly Punishment Thunderstorm’, none of it worked!”

He was the only one who had learned both of these magic arts.

But just in case, the other four had each learned one art.

They had already tried them here, but to no avail.

At this moment, Wen Zhiyi raised her hand to stop Zhangsun Bingquan’s words, her eyes curious and scrutinous as she looked at Chu Yunyun.

“Then you must have used them incorrectly.”

Chu Yunyun extended her hand forward, and instantly layers of talismans appeared in front of her palm, converging into a phantom talisman array.

“Decree! Twelve people here shall pass through unharmed.”

At that moment, the Two Books of Precepts in the sky suddenly flashed with golden light.

A massive amount of Red Thunder suddenly exploded around, spreading out amid the roar.

But everyone here noticed it.

The power of those thunders was far away from them.

This meant they would not be attacked by the Thunder Power of ‘Heavenly Punishment Thunderstorm’ as they moved forward from here.

“Luanyi.” At this time, Chu Yunyun also slightly raised her lips: “Come build us a bridge.”

“Bridge?”

Lu Luanti was taken aback.

She was also surprised to find that Chu Yunyun’s aura was quite different now.

The aura was exceptionally dominant, tolerating no opposition.

The tone and demeanor felt more like commands to her younger sister rather than treating her senior sister.

Lu Luanti puffed her cheeks in mild dissatisfaction but still walked to the front end of the ice bridge.

She briefly concentrated and extended her hand forward as well.
