Chapter 748 - 748: The One With Fortune And Luck

Every person was on high alert.

Only after finishing the arrangements did they relax.

“We’ll hide here first, take turns watching our surroundings, and alert each other immediately if there’s an issue.”

Zheng Shijiu sat down exhausted.

Half a month ago, they were forced to engage in a defensive battle and hadn’t been able to leave at all.

The demons didn’t allow much time for preparation, but luckily, their strength was passable.

They could manage, but now, they fought while retreating.

They used to chase the demons, but in just a short span of days, everything reversed.

They became the prey, while the demons became the hunters.

“When will this end?” Xin Yuyue leaned against a tree with numerous injuries.

“We can’t contact the outside.” Duan Yu’s complexion grew even paler.

Yue You kept her head down.

She was exhausted, yet she couldn’t rest because the demons would catch up at any moment.

Xiao Li sat nearby and helped to cook.

Zheng Shijiu had set up formations in advance, so the flames wouldn’t affect the surroundings.

Soon, everything was cooked, and Xiao Li distributed portions to each person.

Then, she started eating her own.

Not long after, she finished hers. She still wanted more.

She sneakily glanced at the meat in front of Zheng Shijiu.

Seeing her senior meditating with closed eyes, she asked in a low voice, “Senior Brother, are you going to eat? If not, can I have it?”

He didn’t reply, so she sneakily reached out.

However, just as she was about to touch the meat, something tapped at the back of her hand.

Startled, she retracted her hand.

She turned to see the beast. She felt a strange sense of déjå vu.

She saw her old, adopted mother appear behind the beast as if saying, “Do not steal other people’s things.”

Behind her old mother, there was a young figure. The face was invisible but was riddled with exceptional vitality.

She opened her mouth, and a voice, both unfamiliar and familiar, mixed with her mother’s, followed:

“Don’t use your hands, use chopsticks!”

Soon, the image disappeared, and she only saw the beast in front of her.

Xiao Li withdrew her hand and rubbed her back.

Her stomach growled.

“Friends on the road can offer you something to eat, but stealing? The owner won’t show me respect after that.” The beast stood on Xiao Li’s shoulder. “Say the name of Lord Beast, and you can eat whatever you want.”

At that moment, Zheng Shijiu woke up and glanced at the meat in front of him. He then handed it to Xiao Li. “Here, Junior Sister Xiao Li. You can eat it.”

“Is that alright?” Xiao Li asked.

Zheng Shijiu nodded.

Xiao Li smiled. Indeed, the beast’s influence was useful.

Meanwhile, in the distance, numerous demons appeared around the lush forest’s edge.

Changes unfolded silently.

At the White Moon Lake, Senior Sister Yinsha walked through the main gate.

“Zhou Chan, has Elder not come out yet?” she asked.

Zhou Chan was taken aback. “Elder Baizhi has been in seclusion all this time.”

“Can you inform her? Just say I have something important to report.” Yinsha looked at Zhou Chan earnestly.

Zhao Qingxue felt puzzled. It seemed like the seniors in the sect all liked to send Senior Sister Zhou Chan to find Elder Baizhi.

“But Elder Baizhi doesn’t want to be disturbed at this time,” Zhou Chan said hesitantly.

“This is a major matter. Please go ahead,” Yinsha said.

After Zhou Chan left, Zhao Qingxue curiously asked, “Senior Sister, why do you all like to send Senior Sister Zhou Chan to find Elder Baizhi?” Yinsha smiled. “Because Zhou Chan is favored by her.”

Zhao Qingxue was even more confused.

“When you become stronger, maybe then you’ll understand. In our sect, anyone might betray the Elder, except Zhou Chan. To Elder Baizhi, Zhou Chan is the most trustworthy of all the people,” Yinsha said.

Zhao Qingxue lowered her head. She still didn’t understand.

Soon, Zhou Chan came out and told Yinsha to enter.

In the courtyard, Baizhi stood in the yard. Her aura was elusive. It gave off an unfathomable feeling.

However, her face seemed somewhat downcast.

“Elder,” Yinsha said respectfully.

“What is it?” Baizhi asked. Her voice carried a chill.

Yinsha knew that if the information wasn’t something important, she would be held accountable.

“Devil’s Den is facing problems,” Yinsha said seriously. “It’s a strange issue. The terrain has changed, and there’s been no news from the core. The number of demos has increased, and the forest is filled with them.”

“Can the core still be reached?” Baizhi asked.

“No.” Yinsha shook her head.

Devil’s Den was a peculiar place, and they knew very little about it.

All they knew was that it needed to be manned, and the demons were the most active race within.

It required clearing every year.

Sometimes they counterattacked, and it always brought a lot of trouble.

But it hadn’t been long since the last counterattack, so theoretically, this type of incident shouldn’t happen.

“No one has been sent to suppress it?” Baizhi asked.

“No. They can’t. The more people go, the stronger the response, and the larger the changes. The heads of various branches dare not approach,” Yinsha earnestly said.

Such changes made people wary.

Since there was no answer, they had to consult Baizhi.

Baizhi thought for a while. “What is the strength of the demons now?”

“The highest is at the middle stage of the Gold Core Realm, and the weakest at the middle stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm,” Yinsha said.

“Choose five individuals from the sect. One from each stage from the middle stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm to the middle stage of the Gold Core Realm among the strongest at the same level. Send them in first to clear the demos. We’ll consider the rest later.” “Yes.” Yinsha didn’t hesitate.

Baizhi watched her depart and frowned.

This change was quite significant.

Something within Devil’s Den was definitely causing this. This was no longer something she could decide upon on her own.

Even though she had ascended, she still dared not take Devil’s Den lightly. Where there was bad, there was also good, and they had gained quite a lot because of this.

Otherwise, they would have certainly been handed over to the immortal sects.

Soon after, she disappeared from the spot and went to the Hundred Flowers Lake.

A red and white figure was seen in the pavilion.

In the past, she had only ever seen the figure from afar. Seeing the Sect Master still felt mysterious and impossible.

Baizhi understood that this was due to her ascension. It allowed her to sense things more.

She also realized how terrifying the Sect Master was.

Fortunately, she had never had any problematic thoughts.

“I, your subject, seek an audience, Master said Baizhi.

The hundred flowers in the lake swayed gently.

Baizhi understood that this meant she could enter.

Soon, she arrived in front of the pavilion and quietly waited.

Hong Yuye sat in the pavilion and sipped her tea. After a moment, she finally said, “Speak.”

“An anomaly has occurred in Devil’s Den,” Baizhi said.

She then mentioned her own approach to a solution.

Hong Yuye turned to look at Baizhi. “Your luck this time is quite favorable.” Baizhi was somewhat surprised. Why did the conversation turn to this?

“It’s due to your guidance, Master.”

Hong Yuye shook her head slightly. “Just sending people with strong abilities won’t suffice for the matter in Devil’s Den. We need individuals who possess sufficient luck and fortune to test their luck.”

“Test their luck?” Baizhi was somewhat puzzled.

If not handled properly, the consequences could be unimaginable.

After hesitating for a while, Baizhi finally asked, “But where can we find individuals with sufficient luck and fortune?”

Hong Yuye glanced meaningfully at her. “You may go now.”

Baizhi frowned as she left.

What did the Sect Master mean by that?

‘Just now, Sect Master mentioned that my luck is favorable. Could it be that I possess luck and fortune? It’s highly unlikely. If it were just me, the Sect Master wouldn’t need to mention it.’

After thinking for a moment, Baizhi recalled the origin of her opportunity, which came from Shang An. Why had Shang An appeared here?

‘For Jiang Hao…’

The person who possessed luck and fortune might actually be Jiang Hao.

“Is the Sect Master trying to tell me that Jiang Hao already possesses enough luck and fortune and that he might be incomparable?”
