Chapter 1357

Xi Wuqing looked at the entire courtyard with great emotion, his eyes never leaving.
"Although it couldn’t prove that Nine Star Valley is rich in resources, it does prove that Nine Star Valley is filled with strong people. They were able to move so much floating shade wood from the Yun Region without causing too much commotion. The depth of Nine Star Valley’s heritage can be well imagined," Xi Wuqing exclaimed in amazement.
"How impressive can it be? Are you so convinced by a piece of wood? I couldn’t find you anywhere, turns out you had gone to the Yun Region to hide, Xi Wuqing, you certainly have quite the range!" Fairy Wuchang furrowed her delicate eyebrows, raised her jade hand high, and reached out as if she wanted to hit.
"Oh, Yu Qiuhan! You said you wouldn’t hit me anymore! You must keep your word!"
Xi Wuqing cried out in fear, afraid that Fairy Wuchang would bring up old grudges again.
"Hehe, yeah, no more hitting, no more hitting!"
Fairy Wuchang recalled the scene of embracing with Xi Wuqing on the mountain just now, and a blush spread across her face. Thinking about how she, at her age, was still acting so boldly, she had become quite different from being around young people. She couldn’t help but turn her head away.
"Wait, what did you just call me?" Fairy Wuchang furrowed her slender eyebrows again, pretending to be angry as she stared at Xi Wuqing.
"You’re running away!" Fairy Wuchang laughed and scolded from behind, her heart filled with warmth.
Xi Wuqing got startled and ran outside. Fairy Wuchang couldn’t fly in the valley, so she picked up something and threw it towards the distance, chasing after Xi Wuqing.
Su Yi watched as Xi Wuqing and Fairy Wuchang played around, feeling a mixture of amusement and helplessness. He couldn’t believe that some people actually thought they were a newly married couple.
This is what love should be like – a mix of love and hate, with a variety of emotions.
Situ Muyang pondered silently, even the Great Senior Brother and Fairy Wuchang, who could be considered elders in their own sects, admired Nine Star Valley so much.
It seems that Nine Star Valley is truly impressive, thought Situ Muyang, but he quickly calmed down.
"Impressive indeed, but it seems inferior to my own sect," Situ Muyang said with a mischievous look, secretly glancing at Su Yi.
"Even though wherever Uncle Little Teacher goes, he’s considered exceptional, he can’t compare," Situ Muyang began to feel a bit frustrated, but his admiration for Su Yi grew stronger.
"If he wasn’t impressive, why would he be my Teacher Uncle? Do I have to compare myself to Elder Su? Hahaha!" Situ Muyang suddenly became happy.
Meanwhile, Su Yi had not yet recovered from his shock. He kept his lips sealed, deep in thought. However, he felt that this journey to Nine Star Valley was definitely worthwhile.
You can say that Nine Star Valley’s secrets greatly exceeded Su Yi’s imagination and became somewhat comparable to Sacred Mountain.
If one can gain something in Nine Star Valley, then one’s own goal becomes closer.
Thinking of this, a flash of excitement crossed Su Yi’s eyes, and he was actually looking forward to the Sealed Thunder Valley Ceremony tomorrow.
At this moment, Xi Wuqing and Fairy Wuchang stopped chasing each other, and looked at Su Yi with a serious expression, speaking earnestly.
"Kid, I know what you’re thinking!"
"Elder Nine-star, normally you would only come out once every hundred years. The last time you came out was forty years ago during the Nine Star Valley ceremony. Now, unexpectedly, you’re opening the valley ahead of schedule and allowing people to enter the depths. Whether they can enter the depths or not is another matter, but in any case, it should not be taken lightly. Have you thought about the five people who will enter the valley?"
Su Yi furrowed his eyebrows. This time, a total of seven people from the Overlord Sect are going to Nine Star Valley: Xi Wuqing, Fairy Wuchang, the Green Emperor, Ying Ming the Second Emperor, Situ Muyang, and himself.
If big brother Xi Wuqing goes in, then Fairy Wuchang will definitely go in too. Their relationship is so strong that if one of them is lost, the other cannot survive alone.
Big brother and sister-in-law cannot have any accidents, so the only ones who can enter the valley are the Green Emperor, Ying Ming, and Yang Ming. The Green Emperor and Ying Ming, as well as Yang Ming, possess the Golden Dragon Essence Blood.
The three of them, including Xi Wuqing and Fairy Wuchang, have similar cultivation levels in the Demonic Emperor Realm. The only ones left who can enter are Situ Muyang and Su Yi himself.
"No! Kid, I came here to accompany you into the valley. What’s the point of making me wait outside?" Xi Wuqing looked displeased and said, somewhat angry.
"Yeah, kid, do you look down on us? Or do you think that both me and the old man are cowards? Even in the Chaos Realm, I, Fairy Wuchang, have a notorious reputation!" Fairy Wuchang frowned and said angrily.
Meanwhile, the Green Emperor, Ying Ming, and Yang Ming remained silent, watching the three of them argue.
"That’s not what I meant, Big Brother and Sister Han. Listen to me. Bringing you both in is indeed a good thing, but it could also put everyone at risk if one of you dies in there." Su Yi quickly waved his hand, trying to calm their emotions.
"Moreover, something suspicious is going on with this Sealed Thunder Valley Ceremony. We don’t even know what’s happening outside. If the two of you stay outside, we can coordinate inside and it will definitely be effective!" Su Yi had made up his mind and hoped to finalize the plan quickly.
Su Yi’s words made sense. Waiting outside doesn’t guarantee complete safety. Nangong Hange and Chen Yao are clearly ambitious, and who knows what kind of bad ideas they might have.
"What do you think, Xi Wuqing?" Fairy Wuchang looked at Xi Wuqing, fully considering his opinion.
"I disagree!" Xi Wuqing still had some concerns. At the very least, he wanted to switch places with Situ Muyang to have an extra guarantee with someone in the Ninth Grade of the Yuan Emperor Realm.
Su Yi was a little worried because his older brother could be as stubborn as a bull sometimes.
"Aren’t you going to do anything, sister-in-law?" Su Yi tugged on Xi Wuqing’ sleeve.
"Sister-in-law?" Those words struck a chord with Xi Wuqing, and he fell into deep thought.
The rolling mountains and towering peaks reflected a shimmering golden light under the red evening sun, giving them a beautiful and ancient appearance.
The sound of arguments drifted farther away with the peaks, echoing faintly amidst the golden light, dissipating into fragments along the ridges.
The evening sun, like a painter depicting the last magnificent scenery, let the warmth remain in the brightness, but in an instant transformed everything, showing another kind of beauty that was fleeting and appeared in the sky of ink and magnolia.
On the halfway up the mountain, there were fewer wandering clouds in the sky, and a few scattered stars could easily be plucked by reaching out, sparkling and clear like fragments of whispers on the blue satin.
Linglong Xiaoyue quietly watched Su Yi and his companions under the moonlight.
From persuading at dusk to nightfall, Xi Wuqing finally agreed to Su Yi’s suggestion. He and Fairy Wuchang stayed outside Sealed Thunder Valley, while the Green Emperor, Ying Ming the Second Emperor, Situ Muyang and Su Yi formed a team of five to enter Sealed Thunder Valley.
"Young man, promise me, nothing bad can happen!" Xi Wuqing said with a serious expression, full of worry.
Su Yi mysteriously pulled Xi Wuqing to his side and whispered a few words.
Immediately, Su Yi spoke in a serious tone.
"Big brother, if something strange happens, you don’t have to worry about me. You and Sister Han should find a way to escape on your own, and we will naturally meet up later! That’s the safest way!"
