Can't Stand This Lousy Jie Sect Anymore

Chapter 110 Chang'e: Immortal have you heard of Dugu Beitian? (Second update please subscribe)


Pixiang Palace

Li Changgeng stared at the wooden box, his eyes widening like copper bells.

Yu Yuan was also quite surprised. He did not expect that someone would actually send a bell to Golden Mother on her birthday.

Of course, there was no such thing as "sending off the deceased" in the Primordial Era.

Li Changgeng swallowed hard, then turned his head to look at Yun Zhongzi as if looking at a monster.

"How did you know there was such a treasure inside the wooden box?"

"This wooden box looks rather nice."

Yun Zhongzi gave his honest reason.

Yu Yuan glanced at Li Changgeng, whose face was written with disbelief, and couldn't help but snicker inwardly, you all have no idea about the strength of my great-nephew!

Unfortunately, the item in the wooden box was not a fragment of the Chaos Bell but a fragment of another bell-shaped Innate Spiritual Treasure.

However, considering the surge of spiritual energy that could shake the entire Heavenly Court, this Innate Spiritual Treasure must also be no ordinary item, at least a Top-grade Spiritual Treasure.

At this moment, he looked carefully at the wooden box and saw a large bell covered with verdigris, lying across the box and missing one half of its body.

Despite this, the half bell still stuffed the wooden box to the brim.

The half-copper bell was grand and magnificent, its surface etched with thousands of complex and mysterious patterns and symbols, exuding a rich mystical aura.

Under the light in Pixiang Palace, these patterns and symbols shimmered, as dazzling as the starry sky.

The inside of the bell body was a vast cavity, and its inner wall was similarly engraved with countless carvings.

Yu Yuan turned his head to Yun Zhongzi and asked, "Do you recognize this bell?"

Yun Zhongzi frowned deeply, his eyes fixed on the verdigris-covered bell as if observing the patterns and symbols on it.

Yu Yuan was not in a hurry, quietly waiting for his response.

Soon, Yun Zhongzi raised his head, closed his eyes to ponder for a moment, then suddenly his eyes lit up, exclaimed in surprise, "I remember now... I have seen it in a record of spiritual treasures in Yuxu Palace!"

"Oh?"

Both Yu Yuan and Li Changgeng turned their gazes toward him.

Yun Zhongzi didn't keep them in suspense, saying directly, "If I'm not mistaken, this bell should be the Heavenly Sound Bell that was hung in front of Demon Emperor Hall in the Ancient Demon Clan Heavenly Court during the Ancient Era!"

"So, it's that one!"

A flash of realization shone in the eyes of both Yu Yuan and Li Changgeng.

Although the Ancient Era had been submerged in the torrents of history, the people and objects of the Ancient Era had not been erased along with it.

The Heavenly Sound Bell was a Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure very well known for its reputation.

It was a treasure obtained by Emperor Jun from the treasure rock and later, with the rise of the Demon Clan and the establishment of their Heavenly Court, the bell was hung in front of the Demon Emperor Hall.

In the era when the demons controlled the heavens, once the bell rang, all the demons in the Heavenly Court, regardless of their location, could hear its sound immediately.

Even the Demon Emperor could transmit information or orders through the bell's sounds, allowing the Demon Clan to gain the upper hand in the prolonged war against the Witch Clan.

But in the end, both the Witch and Demon Clans ended in mutual destruction.

This Heavenly Sound Bell also disappeared without a trace as the armies of the Witch Clan stepped into the Demon Court.

It was unexpected that now it would be given as a congratulatory gift to the new Heavenly Court.

From this aspect alone, this Heavenly Sound Bell holds significant meaning for the Heavenly Court!

Thinking this, Yu Yuan cast a doubtful glance at Li Changgeng, "The Heavenly Sound Bell wasn't put in there by you guys, was it?"

He had already checked, and there was no information left on or inside the wooden box about the person giving the gift.

In other words, someone deliberately concealed their identity to present such a treasure to the Heavenly Court.

It was also for this reason that Yu Yuan suspected if it was a trick played by the Heavenly Emperor and his company.

After all, receiving a Heavenly Sound Bell used by the Ancient Demon Court to command demons at the Peach Banquet could certainly be heralded as a legacy transition between two generations of Heavenly Courts!

"The Immortal is joking..."

Li Changgeng gave a wry smile, "If we knew amongst these gifts there was such a Heavenly Sound Bell, we would have released the news before the Peach Banquet began."

"That's true..."

Yu Yuan nodded slightly and reached out to collect the half of the Heavenly Sound Bell into his Ruyi Qiankun Bag.

Though the Heavenly Sound Bell was not a combat-type Spiritual Treasure, its ability to transmit information regardless of spatial distance was still quite remarkable.

"Immortal!"

Li Changgeng bowed, "May I suggest a deal to take this Heavenly Sound Bell..."

"No need to discuss."

Yu Yuan refused decisively and then gave a signal to Yun Zhongzi with his eyes, immediately transforming into a rainbow light that vanished into the sky.

Yun Zhongzi had spent some time with him, and they had some tacit understanding. He followed at once, leaving behind Li Changgeng who could only stare helplessly as the two rainbow lights disappeared.

"Ah... what to do now!"

Knowing he couldn't catch up, Li Changgeng sighed softly and went reluctantly to report to Yaochi Fairyland.

Yu Yuan had not gone far and stopped in front of an uninhabited palace.

Yun Zhongzi curiously looked around, "What did the fellow Daoist bring me here for? Could there also be treasures here?"

"There are treasures, but they're in my Ruyi Bag."

While Yu Yuan spoke, he took out a clean bottle containing Star Fruits from his Ruyi Qiankun Bag and passed it over.

"Take it, don't say your old uncle doesn't take care of you."

"Is this... Star Fruit?"

Yun Zhongzi's eyes suddenly widened, "How do you have such a treasure... and it's too precious, I can't accept it."

Yu Yuan glared at him and tossed the clean bottle over, irritably saying, "Just take it if I'm giving it to you, why be so polite with your uncle?"

Yun Zhongzi caught the clean bottle, his eyes flickering with a strange light.

After a moment of hesitation, he still spoke softly, "I asked my master... The Master said your transformation is barely over a thousand years old, if we really have a familial relationship, then I should be your uncle!"

"Hmm?"

Yu Yuan froze for a moment. "Did the Saint really say that?"

Yun Zhongzi turned his head slightly and softly "Hmm" in response.

Yu Yuan looked at him in surprise, momentarily unable to determine whether he was telling the truth or not.

If it was false, then Yun Zhongzi had started lying!

But if it was true, wouldn't it mean that the Yuqing Saint of Yuxu Palace had acknowledged that he and Yun Zhongzi truly were relatives?

Either way seemed quite astonishing.

As his thoughts were whirling, a bright moonlight shone down directly from the Taiyin Star.

A splendid treasure carriage, drawn by moonlight, came speeding along, sweeping past them.

The treasure carriage was surrounded by pristine white gauze, thoroughly concealing the interior, but perhaps due to the particularly bright moonlight, the silhouette of a slender woman was reflected upon the gauze.

"Hmm?"

An ethereal female voice sounded.

Subsequently, the treasure carriage surprisingly came to a stop.

Then, a slender jade hand lifted the gauze, revealing a face partially hidden by beaded curtains, and deep eyes glanced at the clean bottle in Yun Zhongzi's hand, the ethereal voice asking, "May I ask, Immortal, where did the Star Fruit within that bottle come from?"

Yun Zhongzi instinctively looked at Yu Yuan, who turned around and said to the woman, "Seeing you come from the Taiyin Star with the moonlight, you must be the legendary Chang'e Fairy who resides in the Moon Palace."

The woman's gaze moved away from the Star Fruit, resting upon Yu Yuan's face, her pupils suddenly constricting, she asked in surprise, "May I ask for the venerable name of the Immortal?"

"Hmm?"

Yu Yuan was puzzled and frowned, "Do you know me?"

He was certain that he had never met her before.

Her voice, figure, aura, even the fluctuations of her Primordial Spirit, all were completely unfamiliar.

Unless she had exceptional Dao Xing or used some special Divine Skills or Spiritual Treasure to change everything about herself.

The woman's brow furrowed slightly, and in an instant, she stepped out of the treasure carriage and came before the two men, offering her respects, and softly said, "I am Chang'e, and I have had the honor to meet both Immortals."

So it was indeed Chang'e!

Yu Yuan and Yun Zhongzi exchanged a glance, also saluting in return, then reported their own names and origins.

Chang'e's frown deepened, and her expression revealed a unique charm, as if she was completely puzzled.

Suddenly, she took a scroll from her sleeve, opened it half way to take a look, then glanced at Yu Yuan again... her puzzlement deepening.

Yu Yuan was also very curious.

However, the scroll was turned away from him, so he couldn't see what was on it clearly.

At this moment, the indistinct Chang'e looked at him again and asked, "Are you truly a Third Generation Disciple of the Inner Sect from Jie Sect?"

Yu Yuan frowned and asked, "What exactly are you trying to say?"

"It seems you really are not him..."

A touch of disappointment appeared in Chang'e's eyes, but then she looked at Yu Yuan as if not quite ready to give up, "Have you ever heard of the name Dugu Bubai?"

"Ha?"

Yu Yuan was stunned.

But Chang'e's eyes lit up, she excitedly said, "It really is you!"

Yu Yuan decisively shook his head, "Not me!"

"It can't be wrong!"

Chang'e flicked the scroll open, turning it around.

Yu Yuan and Yun Zhongzi focused their attention and saw that the picture depicted a tall and valiant man, with thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a face as sharply defined as a carving, angular and emanating with vigor.

He was dressed in a faint azure Daoist robe with cloud patterns, neither wearing a crown nor having opted to tie up his hair, his curly and bushy hair casually spread out, which didn't seem unkempt but rather had an unconstrained elegance to it.

The person in the painting not only looked very similar to Yu Yuan but was an exact likeness.

Yun Zhongzi turned to look at Yu Yuan, his eyes full of astonishment, as if to ask why Chang'e Fairy would have his portrait.

But Yu Yuan had already taken the initiative to question Chang'e.

"This was entrusted to me by the Goddess before she left, telling me to wait for you on the Taiyin Star, saying that you would definitely return... But I never expected that I would wait from the Ancient Era until now!"

"Hmm?"

Hearing her words, Yu Yuan was completely flustered.

He knew very well that the Goddess in Chang'e Fairy's words was none other than the Moon God Chang Xi.

But what he couldn't understand was why, after taking merely three Jade Trees, she would paint his portrait and have Chang'e stand guard!

Yun Zhongzi was also somewhat stunned, asking Yu Yuan, "What exactly is going on?"

Yu Yuan simply shrugged, his gaze turning towards Chang'e.

She spoke solemnly, "Please accompany me to the Taiyin Star; the Goddess left something for you before departing."

Yu Yuan also couldn't grasp the situation at this point.

"Weren't you supposed to go to the Peach Banquet to perform a dance?"

"That's not important."

Chang'e answered decisively, looking to Yun Zhongzi, "Please help me to ask for leave from His Highness and the Golden Mother."

Yun Zhongzi: "..."

At this point, Yu Yuan was completely bewildered, wanting to understand what exactly was happening.

Thus, he didn't say much more and allowed Chang'e to take the lead.

After giving a couple of instructions to Yun Zhongzi, the two of them took the treasure carriage and turned towards the Taiyin Star, leaving Yun Zhongzi alone, disheveled by the wind.

What exactly was this situation?
