Chapter 476 Cross-border Ticket, Person Disappeared | Get Rich Quick!
The chaotic battle froze instantly.
When they came to their senses, the human cultivators and demon warriors were all startled by the sudden calm. They retreated and kept their distance, watching each other warily.
The North Sea Black Tortoise's anger had not yet subsided, but when he thought of the purple Dharma image, which was strikingly similar to the Taoist in the sky who used stars to make moves, he had no choice but to temporarily restrain his killing intent.
Who would have thought that those egg thieves had such a terrifying background?
As the situation eased, the human cultivators and demon warriors retreated to their respective camps and began to discuss their next strategy.
Chu Lengyu had already put away the immortal boat, transformed into a streak of light, and instantly disappeared from everyone's sight.
The human cultivators and demon warriors watched her leave, their hearts filled with awe.
Upon returning to Jingu Island, Chu Lengyu had just landed when she saw Danzhu standing in front of her with a displeased expression.
Danzhu couldn't help but complain, "Fellow Daoist Xia, you really speak very badly of the Myriad Star Alliance. We are all legitimate business people who value integrity and fairness."
Despite saying that, Danzhu's attitude did not seem distant; on the contrary, he became even closer to her.
Chu Lengyu changed the subject, saying helplessly, "Fellow Daoist Danzhu, I have no choice. The only offspring of the North Sea Xuan Turtle has fallen into my hands. I dare not keep this hot potato by my side."
Upon hearing this, Danzhu covered her mouth and smiled, a hint of mockery flashing in her eyes: "Is that so? But I think you are quite bold, fellow Daoist."
She paused for a moment, then continued, "That being said, Fellow Daoist's actions today have indeed put our Myriad Star Alliance in a difficult position. After all, we are newcomers, and your actions may make those people even more wary of us, thinking that we have some ulterior motives."
Chu Lengyu remained unmoved and said firmly, "Fellow Daoist Danzhu, you are overthinking it. I was merely acting on a whim today. Wouldn't it be better if the Myriad Star Alliance could remain neutral in this turmoil and observe the changing situation from the sidelines?"
Seeing her serious expression, Danzhu couldn't help but shake his head and laugh, "Fellow Daoist, you are truly unpredictable."
Chu Lengyu smiled but remained silent.
She knew perfectly well that the Myriad Star Alliance truly disdained using those underhanded schemes; everything was an open and aboveboard plan, with those willing to take the bait and those unwilling to leave.
Just like the Sea King's Palace, a chance to advance and transcend tribulations is enough for them to pay any price, no matter what.
Although her words to the human and demon races on the celestial ship were somewhat exaggerated, their essence remained unchanged.
As the two were talking, Danzhu suddenly seemed to remember something important and said, "Oh, right, Fellow Daoist Xia, I almost forgot to tell you something. A cargo ship will be passing through the Minghai territory soon."
Upon hearing this, Chu Lengyu was slightly taken aback, a hint of curiosity rising in her heart: "A cargo ship?"
Danzhu explained, "That's right, it's a cargo ship from the Myriad Star Alliance, shuttling between different realms to trade all sorts of rare items. It's quite a rare opportunity that it's passing through the Minghai Realm this time."
Chu Lengyu's heart stirred. She had already planned to leave the Minghai Realm, and what's more, she had caused such a commotion tonight. Staying here would only cause more trouble.
Unexpectedly, someone brought me a pillow just when I was feeling sleepy.
She immediately said, "Fellow Daoist Danzhu, I need a boat ticket."
Upon hearing this, Danzhu nodded slightly and said, "In that case, I will make the arrangements for you. However, the tickets for the Star-Patrolling Immortal Ship are extremely precious, and obtaining them will not be an easy task. Fellow Daoist, please be prepared for the price."
Chu Lengyu silently memorized the four words "Star-Patrolling Immortal Ship" and said with a smile, "That's natural."
Seeing this, Danzhu said no more and said, "Alright, then I will make the arrangements for you. However, I must remind you that there are powerful people from all sides on this Star-Patrolling Immortal Ship, so please be careful."
Chu Lengyu nodded and said solemnly, "Thank you for the reminder, Fellow Daoist Danzhu. I will pay attention."
Finally, Danzhu glanced at her and said meaningfully, "I hope you can find what you are looking for."
……
the other side.
Having already returned to the Hundred Swords Pavilion in her guise as Chu Lengyu, she has been diligently and tirelessly carrying out sect missions.
As her glorious record of winning ten battles in ten battles on Jingu Island spread, her reputation among her disciples also rose accordingly.
It was already late that day.
Beyond the sparse trees and distant woods, half of the autumn mountains are bathed in the setting sun. (Written on the wall of the pavilion by the river by Kou Zhun, Northern Song Dynasty)
As soon as Chu Lengyu stepped into the sect, she saw Senior Sister Zhao pacing anxiously back and forth at the entrance.
Upon seeing her return, a look of surprise instantly appeared on Senior Sister Zhao's face.
"Junior Sister, you're finally back!" Senior Sister Zhao rushed forward to greet her, saying anxiously, "Your master, Uncle-Master Nangong... she seems to have gone missing!"
Upon hearing this, Chu Lengyu's heart sank, and she hurriedly asked, "What exactly happened? Don't worry, tell me slowly."
Senior Sister Zhao said hurriedly, "After you left, the formation of Listening Wind Cliff continued to operate as usual, and everything seemed to be the same as before. But when Uncle Yu came back to check, he found that Uncle Nangong was missing, and there were obvious signs of fighting in the cave."
"After the sect leader learned of this, he immediately launched an investigation, but so far he hasn't found a single clue. We are all very worried that Aunt Nangong...maybe she has encountered some danger."
The sect leader had ordered that Chu Lengyu not be informed of this matter, but Senior Sister Zhao felt that it couldn't be kept secret for long, so it was better to be honest with her.
After listening, Chu Lengyu frowned deeply, already having some guesses in her mind.
Nangong Xue was always low-key and disliked conflict. She spent most of her time in seclusion on Listening Wind Cliff, immersed in the art of alchemy. Given her nature, how could she possibly leave without a trace, without leaving any word?
From Senior Sister Zhao's account, Chu Lengyu learned that Nangong Xue's disappearance was completely unexpected, as if she had vanished into thin air, and no one knew when she left.
The array on Listening Wind Cliff showed no reaction whatsoever, which meant that a high-level cultivator had silently infiltrated the Hundred Swords Pavilion and abducted her.
If this was not done by Nangong Xue's enemies, then it is very likely because I was too prominent on Jingu Island, which attracted the attention of some people and implicated Nangong Xue.
She quickly returned to Listening Wind Cliff and carefully inspected it inside and out.
The place was indeed very clean; apart from the broken furniture and porcelain vases, there wasn't a trace of magical energy left behind.
Even these broken marks were probably left intentionally by the other party to show her.
Chu Lengyu asked Senior Sister Zhao some more questions, and Senior Sister Zhao told her everything she knew.
Finally, Senior Sister Zhao added with concern, "Junior Sister, don't worry. The matter of Uncle Nangong's disappearance has been reported to the sect's higher-ups. I will notify you as soon as there is any progress. Don't go to investigate by yourself; that's too dangerous."
Chu Lengyu nodded gently, agreeing.
She definitely won't go alone.
