Heavenly Dao Rankings: I Am Exposed As The Sword God

Chapter 86: Persistent Ghost

Shan Ruoshui’s arrival created more laughter in Li Yu’s residence.

Li Yu did not expect that the composed female sect master of the Heavenly Water Pavilion inferior to no men was such a lively and active girl when she was young.

On second thought, it was understandable.

After all, every goddess might have been a playful girl in their youth.

Over the past few days, Shan Ruoshui temporarily stayed in Li Yu’s room.

A match box was enough room for her to sleep in with her ability. However, the guest room was empty. Moreover, the planned spirit herb garden was at the back of Li Yu’s courtyard, where the Daoist temple’s vegetable garden used to be located.

The lighting condition was favorable, and the soil was fertile. With the Ancient Dao Fortune Tree planted, that location was best suited as a spirit herb garden.

Hence, Shan Ruoshui would stay in Li Yu’s residence for a while and begin attempting to plant spirit herbs.

Li Yu knew nothing about spirit herbs plantation. Fortunately, Li Qingyun was well-rounded.

Shan Ruoshui was also extremely intelligent. She immediately understood whatever she was taught, and she had an even more amazing memorizing ability.

Therefore, Li Qingyun only taught her once, and she already knew the planting techniques of most spirit herbs like the back of her hand.

On this day, Ji Qinglan found Li Yu and said that Ji Wanjie had disappeared.

“He’s gone?” Li Yu was slightly surprised. Why would a living person disappear for no reason?

“Tve looked everywhere. All of the junior brothers also said that they didn’t see him. Plus, somebody said that he didn’t see my Ninth Brother before sleeping last night!” Ji Qinglan was somewhat worried.

However, Li Yu was unhurried as he checked the disciple management interface in the system.

When he found Ji Wanjie’s information, he could not help but look shocked.

Soul Formation Stage?

Ji Wanjie was already in the Soul Formation Stage, and he was only in the Golden Core Realm a few days ago.

What happened in the past few days?

Maybe that special physique did something, just like Gu Yugi.

Still, such speed of improvement is really shocking.

Li Yu was surprised, but he was still happy.

This way, he now had four Soul Formation Stage cultivators in the sect—Wu Chang, Gu Yugi, Ji Wanjie, and his father.

However, Li Yu knew that Ji Wanjie’s sudden departure was definitely related to his sudden improvement in cultivation.

Li Yu quickly locked onto Ji Wanjie’s exact location through the disciple management interface.

It was similar to the GPS system in his previous life.

It could also locate and give directions accurately, a powerful function.

“Why did he go to the Yun Prefecture?” Li Yu was puzzled. /Had Ji Wanjie really fled?

Why did he flee from the sect? And even if he didn’t want to stay, why run to Yun Prefecture?

Li Yu was filled with questions, but he did not think about it too much. He would get answers once he found Ji Wanjie.

“Come with me!” Li Yu brought Ji Qinglan and rode the purple lightning flood dragon toward the Cloud Prefecture.

In a mountain range of the Cloud Prefecture shrouded in miasma, the Blood Spirit Monarch had just killed a demon king-level demon beast.

After absorbing its blood essence, his cultivation finally became stable in the Soul Formation Stage.

I should be sate hiding here for the time being. Even if Ji Qinglan, Li Yu, and the others find out Im missing, they’ll never expect me to be here. Also, this place is filled with miasma, and the view is blocked. I’s practically impossible to find me!

The Blood Spirit Monarch thought to himself.

After I kill a few more demon beasts, I’ll head to the Grand Desolate Forest. I’ll return when I reach the Tribulation realm!

With this in mind, the Blood Spirit Monarch moved on and continued to hunt demon beasts for their blood essence to improve his cultivation.

After a long time, the Blood Spirit Monarch hunted another demon beast.

Then, he used his magic power to refine the demon beast’s blood essence and soul.

He refined it into a ball of pure blood and swallowed it, preparing to refine and absorb it.

“Ji Wanjie!” Right at this moment, Li Yu’s voice suddenly sounded.

Puff.

The Blood Spirit Monarch spat out a mouthful of blood and looked up in surprise. Two figures jumped down from the sky.

They were Ji Qinglan and Li Yu.

“Ninth Brother, what’s wrong? Are you injured?” Ji Qinglan worriedly asked as he saw blood flowing down the corner of Ji Wanjie’s mouth, and his clothes were stained red.

“I-I’m fine, I’m fine! How did you find me?”

The Blood Spirit Monarch was on the brink of tears.

What the hell? I’ve escaped so far and hidden so well. How did you even find me?

This brat! Li Yu is solely a persistent ghost haunting me!

The Blood Spirit Monarch did not wish to escape either. Cultivating under the nourishment of the Dao Fortune Ancient Tree was awesome.

However, his fusion last night was finally complete, and his cultivation level had returned to the Soul Formation Stage.

He was unsure if the Demonic Blood Body owner on the Physique Ranking would still be Ji Wanjie’s name or his true identity after he completely fused with the body.

He was more worried that some other Heavenly Dao Rankings would appear in the future and expose his true identity.

Therefore, he still chose to leave the Qingyun Sect for safety reasons. After all, nothing else was more important than his life.

He would never imagine that Li Yu could still find him after clearly fleeing far away.

He might really be a ghost haunting me!

Li Yu glanced at the demon beast corpse not far away, then looked at Ji Wanjie’s appearance, his brows furrowing slightly.

He seemed to understand that there was something fishy about this Demonic Blood Body.

It seemed to require him to devour demon beast blood essence to improve his cultivation. This might be the reason why Ji Wanjie’s cultivation suddenly broke through to the Soul Formation Stage.

However, that demon beast had already become a dried corpse, and its death looked tragic. It was evident that this Demonic Blood Body was indeed wickedly extraordinary.

“Ninth Brother, why did you suddenly leave without a word?”

Faced with Ji Qinglan’s question and Li Yu’s ‘You better give me a reasonable explanation’ look.

The Blood Spirit Monarch’s desire to live was exploding. He felt if he did not give a satisfactory explanation, he would be gone.

He had an idea and came up with a story.

The gist of it was that there was an anomaly in his special physique, and some memories that did not belong to him appeared in his mind.

Those memories had guided him to the Yun Prefecture to seek opportunities, so he left without a word and found his fated opportunities here.

It allowed his cultivation to soar all the way to the Soul Formation Stage. Furthermore, he needed plenty of demon beast blood essence to feed his special physique. Otherwise, he might become bloodthirsty.

“Although I can fully control this physique now, I don’t know if there will be any terrible changes in the future. I’m afraid that I won’t be able to control myself one day, and I don’t want to implicate the sect. I shouldn’t have stayed in Qingyun Sect either, but I just couldn’t say it to you out loud. All I can do

is leave without a word!” finished the Blood Spirit Monarch.

As an old demon who had lived for more than ten thousand years, the Blood Spirit Monarch’s ability to fabricate stories was still impressive.

The entire matter was described flawlessly and realistically, causing Li Yu and Ji Qinglan to believe the story.

Even Elder Nie the sword immortal did not doubt it.

He was only a remnant soul. Coupled with his limited understanding of Ji Wanjie, he could not sense anything amiss with him.

Furthermore, he did not know much about the Demonic Blood Body.

He only knew that this physique did possess some blood refinement abilities, and it might even be slightly bloodthirsty. After all, this was the characteristic of a Demon Body.

Hence, the Blood Spirit Monarch had successfully hoodwinked everyone with his story.

He even felt proud of how outstanding he performed.
