381: The Three Corpses of the God of War Return to the Land of Drought

Was I seeing things?

But Junior Sister clearly saw that person too…

The Yaochi Disciple looked around and found that the other Disciples were acting as if nothing had happened, not noticing anything unusual.

However, Zai Xiyue in the corner had a strange expression.

As it turned out, the person who arrived was Gu Liangyuan.

He used the Instantaneous Movement technique, instantly crossing mountains, rivers, and vast oceans, arriving near the Yaochi Sacred Ground.

He had come according to Zai Xiyue's coordinates, and by the time he reacted, his eyes were met with a dazzling white expanse.

For Gu Liangyuan, who had been there once before, the environment of Yaochi's back mountain was not unfamiliar.

Knowing that the Yaochi Grand Formation blocked the way ahead, and realizing that his current location was inappropriate, he looked down and saw his good Disciple, Zai Xiyue.

And so, with a thought, he transformed into a tattoo and imprinted himself on Zai Xiyue's back.

Gu Liangyuan knew that even if he didn't hide and revealed his identity, these Disciples would not only not say much, but would secretly rejoice in their hearts.

But Gu Liangyuan still couldn't forget how he was chased by these Disciples, losing his armor and abandoning his weapons, when he first arrived at Yaochi.

These Disciples were truly man-eaters!

To avoid unnecessary trouble, he transmitted a message to Zai Xiyue, asking her to help him hide.

Although Zai Xiyue had once fantasized about something happening with her Master, seeing her Master in such a situation still inevitably made her feel shy, which was why her usually cold face showed a strange expression.

After all, at this moment, Zai Xiyue was only wearing a single bellyband that barely covered her, with almost nothing on her back…

Zai Xiyue, oh Zai Xiyue, what are you thinking?

This body was molded by Master, isn't this scene exactly what you fantasized about in your heart?

Calm down, you must calm down.

Whoosh!

Letting out a long breath, Zai Xiyue finally calmed down with great difficulty, but seeing a Yaochi Disciple swimming towards her made her calm heart become flustered again.

Just then, Gu Liangyuan transmitted a message:

"Don't worry, they won't discover my methods. Be calm and find a way to take me away from here."

As Gu Liangyuan spoke, he used a method to stabilize the Divine Soul, causing the strange expression on Zai Xiyue's face to disappear immediately, returning to normal.

"Junior Martial Uncle Zai."

Two Disciples walked forward and bowed to Zai Xiyue.

Zai Xiyue hummed lightly in response.

The two women were already accustomed to Zai Xiyue's seemingly indifferent demeanor and were not surprised.

In fact, it was Yang Qiong who, seeing Zai Xiyue usually seclude herself in her room and not interact with the outside world, knew that this was not beneficial for cultivation, so she specifically brought her to Yaochi to cultivate and temper her heart in the Mortal World.

The Junior Sister couldn't help but ask:

"Junior Martial Uncle Zai, did you see a man fall just now?"

Zai Xiyue looked puzzled: "A man?"

"Where would there be a man in Yaochi?"

Watching this scene, the two women could only give up:

"Maybe we saw wrong. We won't disturb Junior Martial Uncle anymore."

With that, they left with doubts.

Not long after the two women left, Zai Xiyue leaped out of the water.

As she emerged, the water droplets on her hair and body quickly evaporated.

With a sway, clothes appeared on her body.

She transformed into a streak of light and disappeared into the back mountain.

Upon arriving at an open space, Gu Liangyuan's figure materialized.

Looking at Zai Xiyue, Gu Liangyuan felt a surge of emotion:

There is no harm without comparison.

It's a good thing it's Xi Yue. If it were Qianqiu and Song Xianer, those two Rebellious Disciples, they would definitely take advantage of such an opportunity to make demands.

Gu Liangyuan felt that he had spoiled them too much.

Thinking of the schemes Qianqiu and Song Xianer had devised within the Dayuan Imperial Palace, Gu Liangyuan made up his mind that this time he would make them suffer!

"Master, why did you come to Yaochi?"

Zai Xiyue's call pulled Gu Liangyuan's thoughts back. Looking at Zai Xiyue, whose face was flushed, Gu Liangyuan smiled slightly:

"These past few days, I have been traveling the Five Continents and found a Spirit Treasure suitable for you, so I came to Yaochi to find you."

"But I didn't expect you to be in the back mountain of Yaochi."

At this point, Gu Liangyuan deliberately straightened his face:

"You almost made Master lose his reputation in his later years."

Gu Liangyuan was deliberately teasing Zai Xiyue, but Zai Xiyue couldn't tell.

Seeing Gu Liangyuan's stern face, she immediately panicked, completely forgetting her previous shyness, and repeatedly apologized:

"I'm sorry, I'm truly sorry, Master, Xi Yue didn't do it on purpose."

Gu Liangyuan didn't expect Zai Xiyue to react so strongly.

The reason he teased Zai Xiyue was because he was accustomed to the way he interacted with Song Xianer and the others.

Gu Liangyuan felt that if he said this to Song Xianer, Song Xianer would not only not panic but would also say things like, "Master, do you think it looks good?"

In contrast, Gu Liangyuan suddenly found Zai Xiyue so adorable.

A feeling of guilt also arose in his heart.

He had cared too little for Zai Xiyue.

But he had completely forgotten that Qianqiu and Song Xianer were also so adorable in the beginning.

Seeing Zai Xiyue so anxious that she was about to cry, Gu Liangyuan quickly went forward and coaxed her for a while, which greatly reduced the guilt in Zai Xiyue's heart.

Thinking again about Zai Xiyue's background, Gu Liangyuan sighed with emotion:

What a pitiful and innocent child.

After thinking for a moment, he flipped his hand and took out a square box, handing it to Zai Xiyue:

"This item is an ancient defensive Spirit Treasure. It doesn't require spiritual power to activate and can even block Immortals."

"Your Senior Sister Qianqiu and Senior Sister Xian'er also have this."

"I see that you have a cold temperament, are not good with words, and are also a Ghost Cultivator. It's inevitable that you'll get into disputes with people outside, so I bestow this Spirit Treasure upon you for self-defense."

Listening to Gu Liangyuan's words, Zai Xiyue couldn't help but recall that on her way from Forget-Love Peak to Yaochi, she had encountered three Soul Transformation Realm cultivators who intercepted her.

She used all her methods but couldn't kill them.

Just when she was about to use her Mahayana Realm Puppet, she suddenly had a flash of inspiration and announced her identity, saying that she was Gu Liangyuan's Disciple.

Who would have thought that the three arrogant individuals, upon hearing the name Gu Liangyuan, immediately turned around and fled in fear.

From then on, she realized that while the people of the Dao Alliance were fine, as long as a Disciple of the Supreme Jade Pool went out, no one in the Five Continents dared to provoke them.

Not to mention Soul Transformation, even Mahayana Realm powerhouses dared not act rashly.

"Master, I think your reputation and the Mahayana Realm Puppet are enough. This kind of precious treasure, you should bestow it upon Senior Sister Bai."

"She often appears in public and needs it more than I do."

Gu Liangyuan was even more moved by her words.

What a good child!

Then he thought of Qianqiu and Song Xianer, those two Rebellious Disciples, who always wanted to rebel!

"If I tell you to keep it, then keep it. As for your Senior Sister Bai Qing, I have my own arrangements."

Seeing the seriousness in Gu Liangyuan's words, Zai Xiyue no longer refused and accepted it.

After bestowing the Phoenix Bellyband, Gu Liangyuan took out the spiritual objects and Spirit Treasures he had prepared earlier.

This time, Gu Liangyuan triggered multiple returns, including two five-thousand-fold returns.

Even the Underworld Map was only one piece away from being complete.

There were no longer situations where he would get returns of zero point something times.
