Chapter 477
Hearing the question, Ye Yu decisively shook his head, indicating that he had never seen any celestial being pass by.
The immortals did not linger much longer and were about to leave.
Among them, a young immortal, who was crying incessantly, even specially instructed Ye Yu before leaving.
"If you discover any suspicious immortals, please notify us immediately.
If it's really the person we're looking for, there will be a substantial reward for you.
Wuwu, goodbye."
Upon hearing these words and seeing their hurried expressions, Ye Yu's interest was immediately piqued.
Curious, he asked, "Immortal friend, could you tell me what has happened?"
The crying immortal wiped away the tears from his face and spoke softly, "Recently, in the eastern part of the Heavenly Realm, a ruthless female immortal has appeared.
In just half a month, the number of deaths caused by her is countless.
Even the youngest son of the Lord of the Lingwu Sect, Zhuang Lifang, was killed by her.
Yesterday, someone claimed that this female immortal was near the South Doul Sword Sect, so we came here to start searching."
Seeing his sorrowful expression, Ye Yu guessed that he might have been a friend or relative of one of the victims.
So he sympathetically said, "My condolences."
The crying immortal, while still weeping, puzzledly responded, "Why should I be mourning? I don't even know Zhuang ⊛ Nоvеlιght ⊛ (Read the full story) Lifang.
The reason we came to pursue this female immortal is because various sects have offered considerable rewards for her capture.
Among them, the Lingwu Sect has even offered a mid-grade immortal weapon.
That's why I'm here.
The other immortals are here for the same reason."
Ye Yu raised an eyebrow and instinctively asked, "Then why are you crying so bitterly?"
"I mistakenly ate a poisonous immortal fruit, so I've been crying non-stop.
I probably have to cry for another two or three days before it stops.
Wuwuwu."
The crying immortal once again wiped the tears from his face.
He still looked incredibly sorrowful.
But Ye Yu couldn't help but marvel.
Eating a poisonous immortal fruit had such an effect?
It was truly an impressive phenomenon.
Next, Ye Yu became even more curious about this ruthless female immortal's background.
So he decided to join the group of immortals.
Through the conversations on the road, Ye Yu learned the name of the crying immortal.
His name was Tang Jiuge, a cultivator in the early stage of the Earth Immortal realm. He was considered quite capable.
He was a loose immortal without a sect or affiliation in the Heavenly Realm.
As he put it, he didn't want to be tied down by rules.
He did whatever interested him and ignored what didn't.
Recently, the mid-grade immortal weapon that the Lingwu Sect offered as a reward turned out to be theMountain and River Mystic Fan.
The "mountain and river" wasn't important, nor was the "mystic" significant.
What mattered was that the fan looked awesome.
So, Tang Jiuge had joined the group of immortals early on, planning to win the prize by capturing this female immortal.
To be honest, Tang Jiuge's confident demeanor, coupled with the tear stains on his face, was quite amusing.
Then, he started to talk about the female immortal's deeds.
No one knew who she was, nor where she came from.
They only knew that she arrived in the eastern Heavenly Realm half a month ago.
She moved from west to east.
She had practically torn through the eastern region with her violence.
But until now, no one had been able to stop her.
That was why so many immortals had gathered to form a united front and try to capture her together.
Hearing all this, Ye Yu's interest in the mysterious immortal grew even stronger.
At that moment, an immortal at the front suddenly issued a warning and raised his hand, saying, "Everyone, pay attention, we've found the mysterious female immortal's trail.
Everyone, be alert!"
Upon hearing these words, Ye Yu and Tang Jiuge immediately looked forward.
They saw four immortals in Daoist robes rushing forward, waving their hands to set up a black barrier, enclosing the area ahead.
Seeing this, an immortal in the front spoke in a deep voice, "Feng Botong! What are your disciples trying to do?"
"What do you think we're doing?" Feng Botong, a tall elder, stepped forward.
He glanced at the four immortals and gave them a signal.
The four immortals understood and entered the barrier.
Feng Botong then turned and addressed all the immortals behind him, making it clear he was trying to take charge of the situation.
This immediately caused discontent among the immortals.
"Feng Botong, when we set out together, we agreed to work together to find this female immortal.
As for who gets the Lingwu Sect's reward, it's supposed to be decided by skill, through fair competition.
How can you suddenly want to monopolize it?"
"This is against the rules!"
"Quickly lift the barrier, or don't blame us for being impolite!"
...
The noise from the crowd grew louder, and even Tang Jiuge, still crying, shouted angrily.
It was quite understandable.
So many immortals had worked together, and just as they were about to reach the goal, someone tried to take all the credit for themselves.
Naturally, they couldn't accept it.
Even Ye Yu felt dissatisfied.
They had flown for half an hour, and just when they finally spotted the target, they couldn't even get a proper look before being blocked by the barrier.
It was truly excessive.
Faced with the accusations from the other immortals, Feng Botong showed no remorse. Instead, his face twisted into a disdainful sneer.
This chapter first appeared on M|V|L^EMPYR.
"What rules? I don't understand!
As for anyone who wants to be impolite, feel free to try.
Today, I, Feng Botong, am telling you, if you're sensible, stay here and wait for us to capture this female immortal.
Once we're done, each of you can receive ten immortal stones from our Jiugong Dao as a reward for your hard work.
But if you still want to snatch the prize from us, feel free to give it a try."
This statement was incredibly arrogant.
But Feng Botong indeed had the capital to be so arrogant.
The pressure of a Heavenly Immortal swept over the scene, and with the backing of the Jiugong Dao sect, he could easily intimidate most of the immortals present, including Tang Jiuge.
A loose immortal like him had no chance.
It was clear that the reward from Lingwu Sect had already slipped through his fingers.
However, just as he was about to relish his victory, the barrier behind Feng Botong suddenly shook violently.
Soon, cracks appeared on its surface.
This unusual reaction caught everyone's attention.
Even Feng Botong slowly turned around, his expression becoming serious.
Moments later, the tremors ceased, and everything returned to normal.
But the very next second...
A body of an immortal in Daoist robes was thrown out of the barrier.
Then a second, a third, and a fourth!
Everyone quickly peered into the gap in the barrier but only saw chaos.
A murderous aura, as if tangible, slowly spread.
At this moment, Ye Yu suddenly felt an intense heat in his chest.
He opened his shirt and looked down.
He saw Bai Xichu's face once again appearing on his chest.
The sensation today was far stronger than before.
This unusual event piqued Ye Yu's attention.
"Hubby!"
A sweet voice suddenly rang out.
It was filled with some sobs and immeasurable joy.
