C99 (1/2)

On the way back with Wu Kong, Luo Liya had maintained her silence. She couldn't understand why Luo Lei would help her. Was it because they were siblings? Back then, he had abandoned the young Luo Liya in River City, while he had been enjoying his fortune in the Imperial City. She did not think that he would have any brotherly relationship with her.

Although she had never experienced the most difficult period for Luo Liya — her mother's death, her brother's absence, being bullied by her stepmother and sister. However, she still wanted to speak up for the original Luo Liya. Why was it that Lori could walk away so casually? Why?

Even if she didn't deal with him, Luo Liya wouldn't easily forgive him. This was the last thing she could do for the original Luo Liya.

After finding a way to train the Taotie, Luo Liya wanted to find an opportunity to test it out. Of course, she couldn't be the only one present during the process.

After all, he was once a god. Even though he was no longer as awe-inspiring as he was before, his cultivation was still superior compared to ordinary mortals.

Although a while ago he and Luo Liya had a little conflict because of the moon spirit, Luo Liya thought that his existence might affect the moon spirit's cultivation. At that time, he was somewhat dissatisfied, but when he thought about it, why did he need to be so haughty, and without the grace of a man, he and Luo Liya resumed their relationship.

First of all, we need to find a safe place, and this is not a joke. If teacher finds out that you have a Divine Beast pet, who knows what the consequences will be.

”Of course, since you've already mentioned it to me, then where would be the safest place?” Loria asked.

Zi Ruo knitted her brows as she thought about it. Not long later, she relaxed, ”There's a place where not many students will be going. It's also very safe.”

”Where?”

”Dark Mountain.”

”Dark Mountain?”

”Yes.” Zi Ruo replied unhurriedly, ”There is only one Teacher Xu Shang living in the Nether Realm, there are very few things that can be hidden from his eyes, so he definitely knows about you possessing the Taotie Divine Beast, it's just that he never exposed it, furthermore the Taotie is originally in the poisonous forest of the Nether Realm Mountain, if the Taotie were to go missing, do you think he would not notice? However, since he has allowed you to do as you please, he definitely hopes for you to cultivate properly. Naturally, he will not let this matter spread out. ”

Once again, Zi Ruo's words reached Luo Liya's heart. Xu Shang's skills were unfathomable, and although he was slightly lower than Dongli Zhen, in the Jade Water Nation, he was a figure that could not be compared to a soldier. He listened to the six paths and observed his surroundings.

He had the demeanor of a wise man in the middle of a long line.

Luo Liya agreed with Zi Ruo's suggestion and decided to choose a day to walk the mountain with Wu Kong and Zi Ruo. Yue Ling, Fu Dongming, and Ye Yingtian should stay in the academy since the mountain wasn't a good place.

However, after listening to their thoughts, Fu Dongming insisted on accompanying them. The reason given was also very plentiful.

”Xu Shang is my grandfather. If I were to go, the possibility of him not revealing anything would be higher, right?”

Fu Dongming had become more enlightened recently, and he seemed to be speaking and doing things with a sense of maturity. It was likely that he was slowly growing up in this academy, where experts were everywhere. Every single one of them had changed, including Wu Kong.

”Alright, then you can go with me.” The thin layer of paper between her and Fu Dongming had already been penetrated by her. She had told him the same thing that Wu Kong had said, that she would temporarily break off all feelings of love. Her main focus was now on cultivation, and so were they.

Luo Liya was worried that he would cause trouble if he failed to join in the fun, so she didn't agree. Ye Yingtian had pestered Zi Ruo many times but to no avail. In the end, she could only console herself: Luckily, I still have someone to accompany me, and the moon spirit also didn't go.

It was so decided.

It was not the best time to convert her true energy, so Luo Liya could only patiently wait while she prepared. Fortunately, the rain did not last long, and two days later, in the early morning, the sky was bright and clear.

Luo Liya's mood was also very good, so she decided to go to the Cave of the Underworld today.

The four of them first arrived at the Mountain of Yue, but this time they were not as lucky as the time she and Wu Kong came, and did not end up on a mount to pick them up. Luo Liya could only try to summon the Taotie, but fortunately, the Taotie was more obedient and came out of the Zhen Qi stone.

If ordinary people were to see this Taotie, they would definitely be scared out of their wits. Fortunately, Luo Liya and the others had seen the world, so they all fearlessly sat on the back of the Taotie and held onto its tentacles. Luo Liya lightly patted it, and it immediately obediently flew forward.

The Cave of Netherworld was the home of the Tao Tie. It naturally knew the way, but compared to its previous professional mount, the Cave of Netherworld, it was much slower. It only took them around an hour to reach the Cave of Netherworld.

They were not prepared to be the first to act, so they went to Xu Shang and explained the situation to him. Thus, they arrived at the entrance of the cave where Xu Shang had hidden himself.

Xu Shang was practicing the set of fist techniques he had created at the entrance of the cave. Seeing them, he was not surprised at all. He raised his eyebrows slightly and said slowly, ”You are here?”
