342 We Know
Dong Xi agreed with Su Cheng. She shouted, “Uncle-Master, I’m coming in.”
How could a fenced door stop Dong Xi?
Dong Xi directly jumped over the gate and entered the courtyard.
Then, the door opened and Da Fu rushed out and jumped into Dong Xi’s arms. Guo Rui followed suit.
“How infuriating,” Guo Rui said angrily. “The door is closed. Can’t you tell that you’re not welcome?”
“We know that you have a sharp tongue but a soft heart, Martial Uncle. If you really didn’t welcome us, you would have activated the restriction long ago,” said Dong Xi with a smile.
Guo Rui, “…”
Guo Rui was so angry that he laughed. Looking at the little girl carrying Da Fu, Guo Rui said, “Dong Xi, you little girl, you’re really like a mother. When you’re begging me, you call me ‘Senior Uncle’ or ‘Uncle Master’ affectionately. After you’ve used me, you actually dare to call me by my name.”
Dong Xi saw that Guo Rui was about to dig up old scores and immediately said, “Martial Uncle, what happened to you? Why don’t you welcome us?”
Guo Rui’s eyes turned red. He gritted his teeth and said, “You really don’t know?”
Dong Xi shook her head with a blank expression.
“What did you do at the back of the mountain?” asked Guo Rui.
Dong Xi instantly understood. She said honestly, “Since you already know, you should understand that this has nothing to do with me.”
Guo Rui clenched his fists in anger and paced back and forth at the door. He looked a little older than before. Guo Rui said,” Stop explaining. You’re a nest of snakes and rats! ”
“Uncle-Master, Su Cheng is a snake, but I am not a rat,” said Dong Xi as she puffed out her chest.
The next second, the snake lying on Dong Xi’s shoulder opened its eyes and looked at Guo Rui. Guo Rui immediately shut up.
Seeing that the scene had quietened down, Dong Xi said, “Martial Uncle, don’t be angry.”
Dong Xi’s words were like a fire, instantly igniting a barrel of gunpowder. Guo Rui said, “How can I not be angry? You’re clearly selling me out by doing this!”
Then, Guo Rui heard Su Cheng’s lazy voice. Su Cheng said,” You can’t go out anyway. You have to contribute something. ”
Guo Rui did not say anything else. Dong Xi put down Da Fu and said, “Uncle-Master, I’m reading a book at the side. If you need anything, just call me.”
Dong Xi left, but Su Cheng did not.
“You have an agreement with them?” Su Cheng asked.
“How could I have the ability to do that? ” Guo Rui shook his head. “Making an agreement with them is like playing the lute to a cow. Have you ever seen anyone reason with a mad dog?”
“Then why did these people let you stay here for so long?” asked Su Cheng curiously.
Guo Rui’s clan was adept in divination. They could look into the past as well as the future. However, they were not good at fighting.
For such a Guo Rui to be able to stay in a corner of the Beast Trainer Sect where demonic Qi was rampant, he must have something to rely on.
Su Cheng had already guessed something, but he still wanted to hear what Guo Rui had to say.
“This is the core of the formation,” said Guo Rui.
Guo Rui and Su Cheng had a thousand years of friendship. The two of them were able to leave the Demon Realm together because they trusted each other.
Back then, there was a passageway between the Immortal Realm and the Demon Realm. However, after the great war between the Immortal Realm and the Demon Realm tens of thousands of years ago, the mighty figures of the Immortal cultivation world sealed the passageway.
1,500 years ago, there was a crack in the barrier between the two worlds.
At that time, Su Cheng had already reached the realm of the Demon Lord. However, his Ascension path was sealed, and he could not proceed. If he stayed in the Demon Realm, no matter how high his cultivation was, he would one day be devoured by the demonic Qi.
Su Cheng went to Guo Rui to see what the future would be like. Guo Rui knew what Su Cheng was thinking then.
Guo Rui still remembered how he had answered back then. He said, “We won’t know until we tried. We have to try.”
The heavens had the virtue of cherishing life. Even if these people did things that were comparable to Ascending to the heavens, they were still given a chance for survival.
Su Cheng’s thoughts had always influenced Guo Rui. Guo Rui also went to check the seal of the Immortal realm’s mighty figure again.
In the end, they found a way to escape the seal. Guo Rui and Su Cheng agreed that the two of them would go to the cultivation world from different directions.
If anyone could reach it alive, they would try their best to find a way to Ascend.
Guo Rui did not expect that the two of them would actually come to the cultivation world.
However, the gap that Su Cheng passed through became bigger and bigger every year, allowing countless demonic Qi to enter the cultivation world. Su Cheng imitated the sealing array here and managed to block the demonic Qi.
Guo Rui had arrived at the Beast Trainer Sect through the gap. In order to resist the Mental Demons, Guo Rui used the seal to suppress the demonic Qi on his body.
This bamboo house was also the core of the array formation. How could the demons that followed Guo Rui here dare to approach?
