Chapter 249 – Excited Shen Yuanlong, Moonwatch Sect’s Changes

Chapter 249 – Excited Shen Yuanlong, Changes in the Moonwatch Sect

Indeed.

Hou Dongbai had told them back then that because of the reason they had killed that Fushan Wolf King, that Fifth Order Demon Emperor had wanted to cross the barrier between the two clans to come and avenge its descendants, but fortunately, he was stopped by True Lord Xuan Yang.

Nowadays.

That Fifth Order Demon Emperor was unable to personally enter their human race territory though, much less stay in a small place like their Cangnan Domain.

However, this did not mean that its other descendants, or those of its subordinates, would not continue to pay attention to this matter.

Once their traces were discovered and they were within the boundaries of their demonic beast territories, those fourth-ranked Demon Kings definitely wouldn’t mind taking their heads and going to the fifth-ranked Demon Emperors to collect their rewards.

Taking a step back, even if there were no such reasons as mentioned above, with the enmity that the two clans had formed.

Once two Jindan were found to have entered their demonic beast territory, it would definitely cause the local fourth rank demon kings to be alerted.

What would happen at that time would be something that was hard to say.

And apart from this matter.

The Zheng Kingdom’s Ding Yuan Marquis, as well as the demonic cultivator side, could have a not-so-small grudge against them.

There was no guarantee that they wouldn’t take advantage of this opportunity to do something detrimental to themselves.

So.

This time when they traveled to the Shen Clan of Immortals, it was better to keep a low profile as much as possible if they could.

Of course, saying this, it wasn’t that Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan were afraid of them.

It was just that they didn’t want to meaninglessly cause trouble.

A few days later.

Jiang Chengxuan and the others left Mount Taixuan without alerting many people.

This trip to the Shen Clan of Immortals in the Cloud Country was a matter that only the three Purple Mansion cultivators, Jiang Renyi, Jiang Rendao, and Liu Linglong, knew about.

Other than that, no one in the entire Liang Country knew that they had left the Jiang Clan Immortal Clan.

Road.

Jiang Chengxuan directly was utilizing the divine aptitude Phaseless.

It was seen that his figure began to disappear inch by inch, as if it had been erased by an eraser.

This scene immediately shocked Shen Ruyan.

Even though before this, she had already heard Jiang Chengxuan’s description of this divine ability.

However, after she saw it with her own eyes at this moment, she was still stunned by the divine ability’s unreasonable ability.

Because with her perception, even though she knew that Jiang Chengxuan was right in front of her, she still couldn’t see or feel the slightest trace of Jiang Chengxuan’s existence.

A few moments later.

Only then did Shen Ruyan calm the shock within her heart, turning to similarly perform the secret method of concealing her figure, and together with Jiang Chengxuan, after spending most of the month, she finally arrived at the Pingchuan County of the Cloud Country.

Subsequently, the two of them sent a message to Shen Ruyan’s elder brother, Shen Daoming.

Without a moment’s effort, Shen Daoming personally went out of Mount Yu Hua and brought the two of them to Hua Wu Peak, where fifth uncle Shen Yuanlong was located.

Seeing fifth uncle Shen Yuanlong again, the couple’s mood should have been more joyful.

However, when they, after seeing Shen Yuanlong’s current appearance, their expressions could not help but also become somewhat heavy for a time.

Because at this time Shen Yuanlong, the whole person is permeated with a rotten atmosphere.

His face was wrinkled and his description was withered.

The vitality in his body was almost already hard to detect.

It was conceivable that according to Shen Yuanlong’s current condition, if they came a few days later, I was afraid that they would really not be able to see him.

After realizing this, Jiang Chengxuan no longer hesitated, and immediately took out the Longevity Extension Pill from his body and handed it to Shen Yuanlong.

“Fifth uncle, this Life Extension Pill, which I obtained by chance, should be able to help you extend your life for a very long period of time.

The most important thing is that it does not take up the quota for you to take a life-extending elixir once.”

Immediately, Jiang Chengxuan spoke about the special features of this Life Extension Pill with Shen Yuanlong in front of him.

Upon hearing this, Shen Yuanlong and Shen Daoming, who was on the side, were both quite shocked in their hearts.

Especially Shen Yuanlong.

He had already taken the life-extension elixir twice before and after, and had more or less that much understanding of life-extension elixirs, and was very clear about how precious such a life-extension elixir was.

At this instant, Shen Yuanlong’s heart was truly filled with infinite emotions.

He did not say don’t and such pretentious words, but looked at Jiang Chengxuan and said with sincerity:
“Chengxuan, thank you.

Counting the last Moonwatch Fruit, you’ve already renewed my life twice for old me.”

“Hehe, fifth uncle, you must not say that.”

Jiang Chengxuan instantly laughed and shook his head.

“These are all things we should do.

Besides, you and the Illusory Dream Ancestor back then didn’t care less about us.

Including Qianyang Sect’s Elder Zheng, if it weren’t for this layer of relationship between Illusory Dream Old Ancestor and you guys, he wouldn’t have taken that special care of us.”

These words of Jiang Chengxuan were all true.

But Shen Yuanlong obviously wouldn’t really feel that Jiang Chengxuan owed them the Shen family just because of these.

On the contrary, these years Jiang Chengxuan for their Shen family’s help, has long been to repay the year they to his favor.

To be honest, he, as well as their Shen family, owed him Jiang Chengxuan more.

Of course.

These words, he would not say.

Some things, some favors, just need to be remembered.

If there is no opportunity, then, if there is an opportunity, he, as well as their Shen family, will never be indifferent.

This matter, Shen Yuanlong has decided, after this, he will write it into the family rules and family training.

Next, Shen Yuanlong took the Life Extension Pill given by Jiang Chengxuan and entered his own cave.

By the time he came out again, Shen Yuanlong’s originally withered and decayed body had already regained its proper vitality.

Seeing this, a flash of uncontrollable surprise immediately appeared on Shen Daoming’s face.

Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, the same smile appeared on their faces.

Then he saw Shen Yuan Longxin come to the couple’s two sides, and then with an extremely solemn expression, he was about to salute the two, but the result was that Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan simultaneously exerted their magical power, stopping his move.

“Fifth uncle, there is no need to be like this.”

However, at this moment, Shen Yuanlong, after sensing the two’s mana that far exceeded that of a Purple Mansion cultivator, an incomparably shocked expression appeared on his face.

He even forgot what he was going to do, but instead looked at the duo with a somewhat incredulous expression and tried to speak:

“Cheng Xuan, Ruyan, your current cultivation level, could it be that you have already ……?”

“Uh-huh.”

Seeing that Shen Yuanlong had sensed this, the two of them didn’t have any intention of hiding it, and when they heard this, they immediately nodded with a smile and said:
“Not bad, we have indeed broken through to the Jindan realm.”

“What?”

The words of the two immediately caused Shen Daoming, who was on the side, to show a flash of dismay on his face, followed by shock.

“You guys really broke through to the Jindan realm?”

Just after the words fell, Shen Daoming couldn’t help but glance at Shen Yuanlong, and then both of them were somewhat unable to stop their excitement.

Shen Yuanlong even said the word “good” three times in a row.

This is indeed what they had not expected before.

Although with their qualifications, breaking through to the Jindan realm in the future would only be a matter of time.

But at this moment, when they personally received confirmation from Jiang Chengxuan Shen Ruyan’s mouth, it was still a little difficult to hold down the excitement in their hearts.

Because no one knew better than them, the Jindan realm, that in the end is what it means.

If the Purple Mansion cultivator, the status in their Cangnan five countries, belongs to the upper level of the pyramid, then the Jindan real person, is located in the top level of the pyramid.

“Come, come, Cheng Xuan, Ruyan, today, no matter what, we have to have a few good drinks together as a celebration.”

He saw Shen Yuanlong suddenly take out a few jugs of spirit wine from his own body, and then set them on top of a stone table in front of him.

Because he knew that the two of them had come here, and did not want to startle anyone other than them, so Shen Yuanlong did not have the intention of informing everyone.

Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan did not refuse, and soon joined Shen Yuanlong and Shen Daoming, drinking around the stone table.

During this time, the few people chatted a lot.

From the past to the present, and from the present to some future situations.

During this process, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan also truly understood that this time, the Cloud Country’s loss in this demonic beast chaos was really not small.

The area of the Ten Thousand Winds Forest had been completely occupied by demonic beasts.

And, in this process, they have several Purple House forces in the Cloud Country that have been destroyed as a result.

Even the three major Jindan sects had Purple Mansion level cultivators fall.

Then there were some conflicts and contradictions between Liang and Zheng, and even their three countries, Yun, Liang and Yan, and Zheng and Shu.

Especially after this Demon Beast Rebellion, if they don’t get it right, it’s very likely that a great war will break out between the two sides.

In this regard, Shen Yuanlong and Shen Daoming, both expressed their worries.

Because once a big war of this scale broke out, even though their Shen family was a Purple Mansion Immortal Clan, there was not much certainty that they would be able to survive.

Regarding this matter, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s suggestion was that if possible, their Shen family could perhaps consider relocating their entire clan to Liang Country.

In Liang, with their two Jindans around, they could more or less take care of them.

Even if the Five Kingdoms War broke out in the future, the probability of preservation would be higher than if they continued to stay in the Cloud Kingdom.

Of course, as a member of the Jiang family, the corresponding risks were equally unavoidable.

After all, there was no such thing as perfection in this world.

Everything, still depends on Shen Yuanlong and Shen Daoming and their own decisions.

In this regard, the two of them had also considered it for a long time, but the matter was so important that the two of them, in a short period of time, really couldn’t easily make a decision.

It was only to tell Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan that the longest time would be no more than half a year, and that no matter what, they would give them an answer.

Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan naturally both expressed their understanding.

Next, a few people once again talked about something else.

Right at this moment, Shen Yuanlong suddenly seemed to have thought of something, and his expression suddenly became somewhat hesitant.

It looked like he was about to say something.

Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan sensed Shen Yuanlong’s abnormality, the two of them exchanged glances, then they heard Jiang Chengxuan say:

“Fifth uncle, is there something wrong?”

Shen Yuanlong hesitated, but in the end, he nodded.

“There is indeed something.”

After a pause, he heard Shen Yuanlong say:

“It’s the Moonwatch Sect’s Patriarch Huang Wenyu, he’s disappeared.”

“Huang Wenyu is missing?”

Hearing this news, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan couldn’t help but both be stunned.

“What’s going on here?”

Jiang Chengxuan immediately asked after them.

But he knew that Huang Wenyu had already broken through to the Jindan realm before he dealt with that Seven Lotus Demon Sect.

Now that so many years had passed, his cultivation level had, inevitably, increased.

How could such a cultivator disappear just like that?

“The specifics, I’m not particularly clear.”

Shen Yuanlong shook his head.

“I just know that during the third year of the Demon Beast Rebellion, Huang Wenyu had a great battle with a fourth-ranked Demon King.

After that, they fought all the way to the depths of the Northern Abyssal Sky Ridge, and haven’t appeared since.”

The North Abyss Heavenly Ridge that Shen Yuanlong mentioned here was a primordial mountain range that was extremely vast in area.

However, because of the thinness of the spiritual qi here, coupled with the relatively barren resources, there were unusually few cultivators and demonic beasts that frequented the area.

Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s faces couldn’t help but both reveal a touch of gravity.

As friends they had made before breaking through Jindan, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan still knew Huang Wenyu’s character very well.

They knew that with his character, if nothing unexpected had happened, it was absolutely impossible for Huang Wenyu not to return.

Now this is the case, it must be that something special has happened.

Thinking of this, Jiang Chengxuan immediately asked Shen Yuanlong:
“What’s the situation over at the Moonwatch Sect now? Within their sect, they should have Huang Wenyu’s soul lamp, right? Is there anything wrong with his soul lamp?”

Jiang Chengxuan knew very well that if Huang Wenyu was fine, then his soul lamp should be fine.

On the contrary, the soul lamp might be at risk of going out.

“That’s where the strangeness lies.”

On Shen Yuanlong’s face, suddenly, a touch of doubt was surfacing, and then he was heard to say:

“I’ve heard that his soul lamp has gone out several times, but was eventually lit up again on its own, very strange.

In this matter, their people from the Moonwatch Sect even consulted the Northern Cloud Sect’s Jindan Realist for this, but the Northern Cloud Sect’s Jindan Realist seemed to have no idea what was going on in this regard.

Just instinctively speculated that in Huang Wenyu’s case, I’m afraid that the form wouldn’t be too optimistic.

As for the situation of the Moonwatch Sect today, it’s definitely not as good as it was when Huang Wenyu was there.”

This was also a very normal thing, a Jindan sect, after losing a Jindan real person to sit on the throne, both the status and influence would definitely plummet.

This was still a situation where the crowd was unable to determine if Huang Wenyu was truly dead.

Once everyone confirmed that Huang Wenyu was dead, then today’s Moonwatch Sect would instantly fall from being a towering Jindan Sect back down to a Purple House level Sect.

What would happen at that time, that was something that was not easy to say.

But right now what made Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan care more was still Huang Wenyu’s daughter, Huang Ling’er, her situation.

According to Shen Yuanlong, now Huang Wenyu’s daughter Huang Ling’er, her days within the Moonwatch Sect were not too good.

Originally, this kind of thing, was almost impossible to happen.

But the truth was, this seemingly impossible thing happened on the contrary.

The main reason for this was naturally unrelated to Huang Wenyu’s disappearance.

But another important reason was that all of the Purple Mansion Supreme Elders who had once attached themselves to Huang Wenyu’s faction had fallen in the previous demonic beast chaos.

Among them, they included Daoist Tianchen, whom they had met before.

And the person responsible for taking charge nowadays happened to be another Purple Mansion cultivator who had once been at odds with Huang Wenyu.

Huang Wenyu had not done anything to him at that time, keeping the big picture in mind.

However, he didn’t want this person to be ungrateful, and now that he has gained power, he has instead targeted Huang Ling’er.

Is he really not worried that one day Huang Wenyu will return?
For Jiang Chengxuan’s question, Shen Yuanlong said that if the other party allows his son to have some relationship with Huang Ling’er, or even become a couple with each other, then even if Huang Wenyu really comes back, I’m afraid that he may not be able to take the other party.

This reply from Shen Yuanlong immediately caused both Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan to be startled.

According to the current situation, if the other party really intends to use some unseemly means, this kind of thing, really may not be impossible.

Especially now that the other party was completely in charge of the Moonwatch Sect.

Once he really did that kind of thing, and even managed to get Huang Ling’er pregnant, then even if Huang Wenyu really came back by fluke, I’m afraid that he could only be mute, unable to speak of his suffering.

This is really ……

The couple couldn’t help but look at each other, and from each other’s eyes, they saw some apprehension.

In any case, Huang Wenyu in the past to them are quite care, and between each other, is also considered a very good relationship with friends.

In addition, they also had a very good feeling about Huang Ling’er, a kind-hearted girl.

They really didn’t want to see something like that happen.

And in fact, this was also the main reason why Shen Yuanlong, just now, had hesitated and agonized over whether or not to inform them of this matter.

Because with his understanding of the two, once he let them really know about this matter, they would definitely not sit idly by.

At that time, I’m afraid that it would be impossible to conceal the news of their visit to the Cloud Country.

However, if he were to hide it from them, if what he suspected above were to happen in the future, there would be no way for him to explain it to the two of them.

After all, he was well aware of the relationship between Jiang Chengxuan and his wife, and Huang Wenyu’s father and daughter.

Plus in the past years, Huang Wenyu to their Shen family, also really much care.

Although in this, mainly because of Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s sake, but he Shen Yuanlong and even their Shen family, but can not not lead the other side of this favor.

So.

He Shen Yuanlong, after comprehensive consideration and weighing, finally still spoke out this matter with the two.

And the result was not out of Shen Yuanlong’s expectation.

When Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan couple, after learning about this matter, quickly made a decision to go to the Moonwatch Sect together.
