Chapter 2795 - 71: Contemporary People View the Past (3)

"You mean I’m pledging my support to Young Master Yuan, right? A wise monarch meets a capable minister, only your humble heart can tolerate my candid words!"

The sound of their conversation and laughter gradually drew closer.

Chai Asi and Yuan Mengji, one shamelessly flattering, the other accepting it all, talked and laughed as if they were casually strolling through the countryside, emerging from the forest.

They saw the mountain path ahead, the spring water, and the confrontation between Xiong Sansi, Zhu Lanruo, and Zhu Zheng, feeling the killing intent permeating the air.

"Sorry to interrupt! Excuse us!"

Chai Asi cupped his hands: "We’ll head back first, you continue!"

He pulled Yuan Mengji and started to walk back.

"What are you doing? What are you doing! Draw your sword!" Yuan Mengji shouted: "Don’t you see he’s bullying my sister Lan Ruo? Can I tolerate this?"

Chai Asi held Yuan Mengji’s arm, pushing him forward: "The great cause is not yet complete, my lord should not act rashly."

"Don’t hold me back!"

Chai Asi leaned in and whispered: "Xiong Sansi is the new eighth king on the Heavenly List."

Yuan Mengji turned back angrily: "Wasn’t there also an evil ghost we didn’t kill earlier on the road? Can’t let it wreak havoc, let’s go back and check."

Xiong Sansi held his saber, unmoving.

Zhu Lanruo stopped her strings, saying nothing.

Zhu Zheng looked on with disdain.

Quietly watching this duo of clowns.

They turned back, but the path behind them was gone. Only dense forest remained, shrouded in mystery.

Thinking of the possible presence of the Dragon Clan, Chai Asi and Yuan Mengji found it difficult to move forward.

"Do you think maybe..." Chai Asi turned around, smiling: "We could just stand by the side and not disturb you?"

"Not disturb who?"

At that moment, a path lit up in the forest. Holding twin sabers, the Peaceful Ghost Messenger, and wielding the Eight Slash Saber, She Guyu, walked slowly, one behind the other.

This also eased Yuan Mengji’s embarrassment.

Looking at these two walking side by side, one seemed calm, the other injured. It was clear who was stronger and who was weaker.

This indicated that the Peaceful Ghost Messenger was indeed a stronger demon king than She Guyu, worthy of being named on the new Heavenly List.

The speaker was the Peaceful Ghost Messenger, in a deep tone with mysterious eyes.

Chai Asi laughed lightly: "Hope we don’t disturb Brother Ghost Messenger’s elegant mood!"

To these demons competing here, Chai Asi’s attitude remained as amiable as before.

Because previously, no one could defeat the Supreme.

Now, he couldn’t defeat anyone.

He didn’t feel he was being submissive. By broadening his perspective, he could stand at the Absolute Summit later, and this was all about respecting talent!

Pig Dali gave Chai Asi a deep look without saying a word, continued walking with a mysterious air, stopping in front of the spring.

She Guyu also said nothing, just silently regulating his breath.

Jiang Wang in the Mirror World still ignored Chai Asi’s response, thinking it might be better if this fellow behaved. He silently observed the surroundings, speculating that this strange spring before him should be the Eternal Youth Spring. He wondered who would arrive here next...

According to the speculation of Yixiao, if the connections between these paths were inevitable, the groups should not arrive far apart in time.

"Please go first!"

"Lord Buddha, you go first!"

"It’s better that Young Master Lu walks ahead."

"Master Shujia, you’re too kind, it’s only right for the elder to go first."

"Actually, we’re about the same age..."

A new path appeared in the forest, and once again two voices echoed along it.

Shujia Lan and Lu Qilang, one with his Buddhist robe in shreds, the other’s hair in disarray. They kept a considerable distance from each other, stopping at the end of the path.

The path was narrow, allowing only one to pass.

Yet neither would expose their back.

It’s likely that along this journey, they had encountered many dangers and hadn’t hesitated to scheme against each other.

Now they politely urged each other on, their courtesy not yet concluded.

"The revered name of the Divine Fragrance Flower Sea is much known, how can Second Young Master Lu be left behind?"

"The Black Lotus Temple is a famous ancient temple, shouldn’t Master Shujia be at the fore?"

"Please, you go first!"

"No, no, no, you first!"

Pig Dali listened with growing impatience, snapping irritably: "Why don’t you both go back the way you came then?"
