Seeing Shi Hailu inquiring who he was looking for, Lan Xiaobu knew that Gu Xing Shan should not want to fight with himself. He didn’t bother to continue picking a fight, “I have a friend, called Shangguan Xiao Yi, who is now in Gu Xing Mountain, please bring her here.”
If the other party didn’t agree to this condition, the middle-grade spirit vein Lan Xiaobu didn’t intend to ask for it, he directly drew the upper-grade spirit vein.
“Haha, I know know, Shangguan Xiao Yi is a disciple of the Shangguan family, she had some misunderstandings with our Ancient Star Mountain many years ago, and has been a guest at Ancient Star Mountain. Elder Lu, quickly go and invite Fellow Daoist Shangguan here.”Shi Hailu laughed and said extremely cheerfully.
He was worried that Lan Xiaobu would come with a request he couldn’t reach, but it was good to know that Shangguan Xiao Yi wasn’t important to Ancient Star Mountain.
Years ago it was rumoured that Shangguan Xiao Yi knew the location of the Great Dao Wall, and even knew how to leave the Yuan Continent for the Great Desolate Universe. However, the years of pressing after that showed that Shangguan Xiao Yi didn’t always know. If it wasn’t for waiting for someone from Ancient Star Mountain to cross into the Earth Immortal realm before coming back to search Shangguan Xiao Yi’s soul, Shangguan Xiao Yi would have been killed long ago.
Shangguan Xiao Yi was at the half-step Human Immortal realm, just one step away from crossing over into the Human Immortal realm, and a Human Immortal powerhouse even Mu Yangzui would not be able to search Shangguan Xiao Yi’s soul.
Now that Shangguan Xiaoyi has been imprisoned for so many years, Lan Xiaobu doesn’t come to ask about it, he has forgotten about it.
……
Deep in the dungeon of Ancient Star Mountain, a cloaked prisoner with an unpleasant odour was sitting in a corner of the cell. It was not known how long he had been sitting there, but the prisoner had not moved a single inch.
“Clang!”The iron door of the cell was opened, and the prisoner who hadn’t moved an inch looked up in surprise.
This cell was not something that ordinary people could come in, because there was also a level six trap formation outside, and one had to go through the Sovereign’s consent if they wanted to come in. So for hundreds of years, this cell had not been opened, when was the last time it was opened? By the way, the time between the last time the cell door was opened and the last time it was opened was even longer, as if it was over a thousand years long ……
The one who came in was a female cultivator, who actually bowed respectfully to the prisoner, and then held out a set of clean clothes with both hands and said, “Senior Shangguan, make a prohibition to clean yourself, and then change into clothes and go out with me.”
After this female cultivator finished speaking, she even took the initiative to take out a formation flag to undo the trap formation that confined the prisoner and the restrictions on his body.
Shangguan Xiao Yi looked at the female cultivator in front of her in amazement as she stood up. Not knowing how much time had passed without being able to stand up, she couldn’t even stand anymore.
It took a while before she let out a breath and slowly said, “Who is it that wants me to go out”
After not speaking for a long time, her voice was a bit unclear and hoarse.
From the time she was imprisoned to Ancient Star Mountain, the restraints on her body had never been opened. The cell had been opened countless times instead, and she had forgotten how long the interval between each time was.
What was the meaning of this time, to open the prohibition on her body? Shangguan Xiao Yi wouldn’t think that Gu Xing Shan was trying to put a wind in her sails and then kill her. With what Gu Xing Shan had done, wanting to kill her would not be superfluous at all.
The female cultivator hurriedly saluted, “Senior Shangguan, senior didn’t know, senior was just following orders.”
Shangguan Xiao Yi nodded, and after briefly recovering, she gave herself the Clear Water Technique and the Dust Removal Technique several times. Then she changed into that clean set of clothes again.
Not knowing how many years she had been imprisoned, even after cleaning herself, Shangguan Xiao Yi’s complexion became dark, and her entire body was as if she was skin and bones, with no lustre. Her eyes were also deeply sunken, and her eyes were bleak.
The female cultivator hurriedly took out another ring and handed it to Shangguan Xiao Yi, “Senior, this is your ring.”
What did it mean? Even returning the ring to herself? However, Shangguan Xiao Yi knew that the other party either didn’t know or wouldn’t tell her. She didn’t hesitate and put the ring on, the ring wasn’t hers and the things inside weren’t her original.
“Senior Shangguan, if you are ready, then go out with me.”The female cultivator said respectfully.
“Lead the way.”Shangguan Xiao Yi’s tone was short, even after being imprisoned for countless years, she was still the same Shangguan Xiao Yi in her bones.
……
Lan Xiaobu was still savouring the spirit wine when a female cultivator had already walked in with a thin, bony woman with dry hair.
“Fellow Daoist Shangguan, I’ve been more than a little slow in my Ancient Star Mountain before, hurry up and have a seat.”Seeing the visitor, Shi Hailu cleanly stood up and said. After saying that, he had already taken out two rings, one handed to Lan Xiaobu and one to Shangguan Xiao Yi.
Shangguan Xiao Yi didn’t say anything, she just looked at the cup of spirit wine that was poured to her, she didn’t hesitate for half a second, she directly picked up the wine cup and drank it all in one go, and then coldly said, “What is the matter that Patriarch Shi has called me for? Don’t beat around the bush, just say it directly.”
And yet, he didn’t take that ring.
Instead, Lan Xiaobu took the ring that belonged to him, and inside the ring was a medium-grade spirit vein, as well as ten jars of spirit wine, the very same Meteor Frost Dew that he had praised earlier.
“Thanks a lot then.”Lan Xiaobu put away the ring, then said to Shangguan Xiao Yi, “Fellow Daoist Shangguan, you can put away the ring as well, I’ve been bothering Patriarch Shi for such a long time, so it’s time to take my leave.”
“Who are you?”Shangguan Xiao Yi looked at Lan Xiaobu, her tone still cold.
Having been imprisoned by Gu Xing Shan for an unknown number of years, she didn’t believe that Gu Xing Shan would let her go before Gu Xing Shan forced out the secrets she knew.
Lan Xiaobu said indifferently, “I am Lan Xiaobu, the City Lord of Moubei Immortal City, and I have been entrusted by Fellow Daoist Shangguan Buming to take you away from Ancient Star Mountain.”
“Ancestral Uncle Bu Ming?”Shangguan Xiao Yi was startled and hurriedly grabbed the ring that Shi Hailu handed over and said to Lan Xiaobu, “Thank you, City Lord Lan.”
She had a thousand words, but in her heart, she knew very well that those words shouldn’t be said here.
……
Shangguan Xiao Yi followed Lan Xiaobu out of Ancient Star Mountain, but Ancient Star Mountain’s Patriarch Shi Hailu was sent all the way to the door, and said with a smile under his breath, “Welcome Patriarch Lan to come and sit often.”
Lan Xiaobu smiled, “Did Patriarch Shi mean what he said?”
Shi Hailu choked on Lan Xiaobu’s words, and before he could speak, Lan Xiaobu said with a laugh, “Farewell.”
Shangguan Xiao Yi also heard out at this moment that Shi Hailu was very unwelcoming to Lan Xiaobu, he should not dare to do anything rude to Lan Xiaobu.
When Shangguan Xiaoyi followed Lan Xiaobu up to the extremely high grade spirit artefact airship at the entrance of the Ancient Star Mountain, she looked at Lan Xiaobu with some shock, “City Lord Lan, this airship seems to be a magic treasure of the Nine Continents Mountain. You and the Nine Continents Mountain ……”
The Nine Continents Mountain was not a good place, back then, the one that suppressed the Little Wanshou Mountain was the Ancient Star Mountain.
Lan Xiaobu laughed and said, “Not long ago Mu Yang fold of the Nine Continents Mountain brought people to my Mou Bei Immortal City to look for trouble, I killed one of them, and then he fled in haste. This airship Mu Yang fold was too late to take it away, so I used it as a substitute.”
Shangguan Xiao Yi then felt her brain buzzing, how come she couldn’t understand what this Blue City Lord in front of her said? Could it be because after being imprisoned for years, Yuanzhou had changed too much for her to keep up? Has the Nine Continents Mountain fallen to such a state? A city lord can teach Jiuzhou Mountain a lesson?
However, Shangguan Xiao Yi quickly put these thoughts aside as she made an immortal head salute to Lan Xiaobu and said, “Many thanks to City Lord Lan for bringing me out of the Ancient Star Mountain, because I have been imprisoned for too long, I don’t know a lot of things, please ask City Lord Lan to tell me how he knows about my ancestor’s uncle, Shangguan Buming?”
Even if Shangguan Buming had cultivated to the Human Immortal Realm, his lifespan would have come to an end I’m afraid, not to mention she knew that Shangguan Buming was unable to cultivate to the Human Immortal Realm.
Lan Xiaobu explained, “I passed by the Little Manshou Mountain and obtained a half spirit vein. There’s also a jade slip, so you’ll know if you look at it.”
After saying that, Lan Xiaobu handed the far left behind by Shangguan Bu Ming to Shangguan Xiao Yi.
Shangguan Xiao Yi’s divine thoughts fell within the jade slip, and her eyes quickly filled with sadness. The Shangguan family was gone, and all of the Yun Shen Fruits from the Little Manshou Mountain were gone as well.
Only after a long time did she put away the jade slip and bowed to Lan Xiaobu, “Many thanks to City Lord Lan for keeping his promise and bringing me out of the Ancient Star Mountain.”
She was sure that Lan Xiaobu’s strength was very strong, otherwise it would be impossible for Ancient Star Mountain to give in and send her out. At this moment, she also guessed that what Lan Xiaobu said before should be true, and that it was impossible to get the Jiuzhou Mountain’s Spiritual Artifact Spaceship without teaching the Jiuzhou Mountain a lesson.
Lan Xiaobu took out a jade box and handed it to Shangguan Xiaoyi, “After taking one of your Shangguan family’s top-grade spirit veins, I don’t have anything to give you, I got this by chance, so I’ll give it to you now.”
Shangguan Xiao Yi hastily excused herself, “City Lord Lan rescuing me from the Ancient Star Mountain is already a great favour. Besides, the spirit vein of the Little Wanshou Mountain, even if City Lord Lan doesn’t take it in the future I’m afraid that it will be someone else’s.”
Still, Lan Xiaobu stuffed the jade box to Shangguan Xiao Yi, “Fellow Daoist Shangguan, the reason why I’m sending this to you is because I’ve also obtained an axe from you, which saved my life several times, but unfortunately, it’s now shattered.”
As he spoke, Lan Xiaobu once again took out a storage bag and handed it to Shangguan Xiao Yi.
Shangguan Xiao Yi received the storage bag, her divine thoughts fell on the axe head fragment inside the storage bag, and her eyes reddened. She hadn’t thought that she would still be able to see this axe head in her lifetime.
“I’m sorry, the axe head was broken by me.”Lan Xiaobu was embarrassed.
“No, no, it’s me who should thank you.”Shangguan Xiao Yi hurriedly saluted again, she was in contact with Lan Xiaobu for the first time, yet she could feel Lan Xiaobu’s openness.
Lan Xiaobu said, “I plan to make a trip back to Moubei Immortal City, if Fellow Daoist Shangguan has no place to go, why don’t you settle in my Moubei Immortal City.”
Shangguan Xiaoyi said, “Thank you City Lord Blue, I’ve already bothered City Lord Blue enough, I plan to go back to Little Wanshou Mountain to have a look around, and if I don’t have a place to go in the future, I’ll come back to bother City Lord Blue.”
Lan Xiaobu stopped the airship, “I, Mou Bei Immortal City, welcome fellow Daoist Shangguan anytime.”
After saying that, he also exchanged communication beads with Shangguan Xiao Yi. Shangguan Xiaoyi did not take the initiative to mention the matter of the flames, and Lan Xiaobu did not have the good sense to ask about it.
Watching Lan Xiaobu’s airship go far away again, Shangguan Xiao Yi then murmured, “Thanks a lot, I didn’t expect that I, Shangguan Xiao Yi, would still be able to walk out of the Ancient Star Mountain alive.”
After a long time, Shangguan Xiao Yi opened the jade box in her hand, but she immediately closed it up, her entire body agitated.
Five-coloured immortal ganoderma, what Lan Xiaobu had given her was actually a five-coloured immortal ganoderma. What kind of person was this, a Five Coloured Immortal Chi could be given away casually.
Then her eyes turned even redder, if she had the Five-coloured Immortal Ganoderma back then, why would her Shangguan Family be afraid of the Ancient Star Mountain? If she had this Five-coloured Immortal Ganoderma, she would have been able to cross into the Human Immortal Realm with complete certainty, and as long as there was a Human Immortal Realm, Ancient Star Mountain wouldn’t have dared to make a move. The reason why the Shangguan family was in trouble was because there was no Human Immortal Realm, and the Yun Shen Fruit was too eye-catching.
Shangguan Xiao Yi bowed again in the direction that Lan Xiaobu had left, then turned around and quickly left. She had too many things to do.
