Does Chapter 113 also feature the Fish Emperor?
Does Chapter 113 also feature the Fish Emperor?
After leaving Hansongmen, Chen Xu put on a mask to cover his face, as requested in Wang Tiezhu's letter.
Although Chen Xu was unaware of the reasons, he still trusted Wang Tiezhu quite a bit.
Moreover, the requirement to wear a mask seems to be just a precaution...
A few days later, at Linjiang Tower in Yinyuefang Market.
Chen Xu arrived at the agreed-upon private room and found Wang Tiezhu already waiting inside.
Upon seeing Chen Xu enter, a hint of wariness flashed in Wang Tiezhu's eyes.
Only when Chen Xu removed his mask, revealing his true face, did they rise in surprise to greet him: "Junior Brother Chen?!"
Wang Tiezhu looked Chen Xu up and down, his tone still warm:
"Good lad, it's been a year since we last met, and you've successfully established your foundation! Congratulations!"
Chen Xu put the mask back into his storage bag, sat down opposite him, and smiled, "Just lucky, a bit of a stroke of luck."
"But Senior Brother Wang... he specifically instructed us to conceal our faces this time, has something happened?"
The smile on Wang Tiezhu's face turned more serious.
He picked up the jade pot on the table, poured Chen Xu a cup of spirit wine, and sighed:
"Sigh...Junior brother, have you offended anyone lately?"
Chen Xu downed the spirit wine in one gulp, put down the empty cup, and asked in confusion, "What do you mean by that, Senior Brother?"
Wang Tiezhu did not explain immediately, but instead gave Chen Xu a deep look and took out a jade slip from his storage bag.
He pushed the jade slip in front of Chen Xu and said in a deep voice, "Junior brother, you will understand once you see this."
Chen Xu took the jade slip and probed it with his divine sense, immediately frowning.
Because the jade slip contained a demonic voice:
"Han family, go to Hansong Sect and investigate Chen Xu's information..."
"In just one year... my army will surely crush Nanjiang..."
Although Wang Tiezhu didn't say who it was, Chen Xu recognized the other person's voice and tone.
The one speaking is definitely the Fish Emperor...
Who would have thought that the evil spirit the Han family colluded with was actually this terrifying being!
Countless thoughts flashed through Chen Xu's mind, stringing together key information.
The reason why the Fish Emperor wanted to invade Nanjiang before...
Could it be because it was left in the Evil Emperor Cauldron of the First Saint Sect's ruins?
Now that the Evil Emperor Cauldron has been unintentionally destroyed, it has directly disrupted one of its key plans.
This could have resulted in heavy losses or thwarted its plans, which is why it moved up the time to invade Nanjiang.
Although this is only a speculation based on the current situation, Chen Xu is 70% certain.
The early arrival of the Fish Emperor is definitely related to his destruction of the Evil Emperor Cauldron!
Suppressing his turbulent emotions, Chen Xu took a deep breath and cupped his hands in a respectful gesture towards Wang Tiezhu:
"This information is crucial to me. Thank you for informing me, Senior Brother Wang!"
Wang Tiezhu waved his hand, his tone solemn: "Between you and me, there's no need for thanks."
"Although I don't know how you offended this person, junior brother, he is definitely not someone that we Foundation Establishment cultivators can contend with."
"Junior brother, listen to me. Now that you have established your foundation, leave Nanjiang immediately and head to Yunzhou."
"I'll figure out a way to get past the Qishan blockade..."
Looking at the genuine concern in Wang Tiezhu's eyes, Chen Xu felt a pang of emotion.
This senior brother, whom I met when I was just a nobody, is so loyal and devoted to me.
Even in times of crisis, they are still willing to step forward and plan their own way out.
This kind of friendship is truly rare in the cruel world of cultivation.
However, since I have the token of Moyun Valley, I might be able to find another way to go to Yunzhou.
That way, we don't need to drag Wang Tiezhu into this.
Thinking of this, Durian, who loves to bubbly, has a new work coming soon! Cola Novels is updating it first across the entire network! Chen Xu said to Wang Tiezhu:
"Thank you for your kindness, Senior Brother Wang. I may have a way to get to Yunzhou myself, so there's no need for you to take the risk."
Wang Tiezhu looked somewhat surprised upon hearing this.
Qishan is now as impregnable as a fortress by Moyun Valley; a forced entry would be extremely dangerous.
But seeing Chen Xu's resolute expression, which did not seem like empty words, his anxiety eased a little.
"Oh? Junior brother actually has connections? That's good! That's good!"
He picked up the wine pot again, filled Chen Xu's and his own cups, and raised his cup, saying, "Junior Brother, it's good that you have a solution. In that case, I won't ask any more questions."
"I only hope that you will be careful in everything you do, junior brother. This Nanjiang... is already filled with the ominous signs of an impending storm..."
After saying that, he drank it all in one gulp, the bottom of the glass hitting the table with a dull thud.
After leaving Silvermoon Market, Chen Xu did not return to Cold Pine Gate as planned.
The evil spirits arrived earlier than expected, so I need to prepare an escape route sooner.
He activated the Flying Leaf magic weapon, changed direction, and flew towards Qishan.
Upon reaching the outskirts of Wild Dog Town, the time limit for this clone had expired.
Chen Xu found a natural rock crevice hidden by trees and sat down, changing his clone's appearance and the clone's appearance.
As the light and shadow shifted, the man sitting upright was now a middle-aged man with an ordinary face and a somewhat dull demeanor.
He also deliberately suppressed his cultivation level to the ninth level of Qi Refining.
This disguise of cultivation level is full of flaws in the eyes of cultivators of the same level, but it is enough to fool Qi Refining cultivators.
At the end of Wild Dog Town, a simple checkpoint stands across the path leading to Qishan.
A late-stage Qi Refining cultivator dressed in the robes of a disciple of Moyun Valley was guarding the spot.
Seeing Chen Xu approach, he said calmly, "Show me your identity card."
After entering Qishan, Chen Xu did not dare to delay and immediately took out a map of Qishan to determine the direction.
With his spiritual energy circulating within him, he simultaneously unleashed [Shadow Step] and [Mountain Step], using the cover of the forest and terrain to speed towards Yunzhou.
Now that Chen Xu has successfully established his foundation, his speed is naturally more than ten times faster than before.
Although the mountain is steep and complex, most obstacles are easily bypassed by the absolute speed and elusive movements.
However, the size of the Qishan region far exceeded expectations.
Chen Xu had been traveling at full speed for nearly a month, but still hadn't seen any sign of Yunzhou Pass.
"In the end, I couldn't hold on until the critical moment..." Chen Xu sighed inwardly.
Chen Xu didn't have many disposable training dummies at the moment, so he found a cave and prepared to die there.
However, before he passed away, he took out a beast-taming ring and released the rat Changsheng.
"Squeak squeak squeak?" (What's wrong, boss?) Mouse
The rat's red eyes darted around, already used to Chen Xu having multiple clones.
Chen Xu looked at Shu Changsheng and said, "Changsheng, try to memorize the spatial coordinates here?"
Upon hearing this, the rat sniffed the air and then stretched out its little paw to touch the air in front of it.
A moment later, subtle ripples appeared in the space around it, as if an invisible mark had been etched in the void.
"Squeak!" (All done!)
The rat, Changsheng, raised its little head, appearing quite confident.
"Very good." A glint flashed in Chen Xu's eyes.
He nodded and put the rat Changsheng back into the beast-taming ring.
Then, with a single step, his figure vanished from the spot...
This is the second innate supernatural ability of the rat.
[Void Rat Path]: This divine ability can open a passage to a place one has been before...
