Chapter 604: Goddess Shen Ji

Fang Chen patted Li Daoye on the shoulder. “For now, the best course of action is to stay temporarily in the Immortal Qin Manor. Qin Nie won’t dare to openly act against us here, especially since the Immortal Qin Clan’s ancestor wouldn’t want to see any internal strife while preparing for war.

“There are still unstable factors within the Immortal Qin Clan. If you don’t believe it, try using your Divination of the Stars.”

Li Daoye agreed to test it. After a moment, he relaxed and nodded. “Indeed, it’s safest for me to remain in the Immortal Qin Manor.”

“Then go back to your cultivation,” Fang Chen said with a smile.

Feeling a little better, Li Daoye turned and returned to his meditation room.

Fang Chen considered the situation and went back to his meditation room to send a message through Killing Spiritual Division’s communication token.

Azure Dao Manor, the Immortal Qin Clan’s ancestor intends to go to war with the Langya Clan. The Spirit Blood Sect’s Qin Nie is involved, backed by the Radiant Sun Spirit Lord. Is there anyone who can communicate with the Immortal Qin Clan’s ancestor? A gentle persuasion would be appreciated.

After a short while, a reply came

I am one day’s journey away from the Immortal Qin Clan. I will try, but I cannot guarantee that the Immortal Qin Clan’s ancestor will listen to me.

Thank you, friend.

It is my duty as a member of the Killing Spiritual Division. No need to thank me.

Aside from this reply, there were no further messages, suggesting that this might be the only Killing Spiritual Division member within thousands of miles. However, the fact that the responder could speak to the Immortal Qin Clan’s ancestor was reassuring.

The next day, early in the morning, Chu Lan sent a maid to invite Fang Chen over.

“Fang Daoist, there is something... I’ve been thinking about all night and can’t quite understand,” Chu Lan said, rubbing her temples.

Her eyes were filled with confusion.

“What is it?”

Chu Lan took a while to accept the truth, her face showing a wry smile. “Thank you, Daoist Fang, for telling me this truth. Otherwise, I would regret it for many years...”

“However,” Fang Chen continued, “The man by the Immortal Qin Clan patriarch’s side, Yue Long, is also a person of Qin Nie’s, or rather... He’s a person of the Spirit Blood Sect.”

Chu Lan was shocked. “Yue Long has been my husband’s companion since childhood. How could he be a member of the Spirit Blood Sect!”

“I suspect that Qin Nie’s affiliation with the Spirit Blood Sect might be related to him,” Fang Chen said.

Chu Lan was struck by a wave of shock and horror, realizing that such a high-ranking member of the Immortal Qin Clan could be connected to the Spirit Blood Sect.

“First Lady, you should make early preparations. Once Qin Nie has the chance, he will use the Spirit Blood Sect to deal with you,” Fang Chen advised before leaving for his quiet room, leaving Chu Lan alone to ponder the situation.

Before long, Fang Chen’s spiritual sense returned to the secluded courtyard of the Immortal Qin Clan’s ancestor, waiting quietly.

By evening, a young girl walked slowly into the courtyard, and the Immortal Qin Clan ancestor greeted her with a beaming smile.

At that moment, the Immortal Qin Clan ancestor appeared like an ordinary old man, devoid of any signs of the Dao Union Realm’s aura. The young girl, on the other hand, looked quite peculiar. Her trousers were rolled up to her knees, and she was barefoot. However, her feet were completely dust-free.

“Goddess Shen Ji, what brings you to visit this old man? Did you happen to be passing by the Azure Dao Manor?” The Immortal Qin Clan ancestor asked with a hint of surprise.

Fang Chen stared at the young girl in shock. The visitor was none other than the mysterious woman who had once taught him the Primordial Immortal Eyes. She was the one whom he had suspected of destroying the Profound Void Temple.

Judging by the fact that she arrived after he sent the message, it seemed highly likely she was a member of the Spiritual Killing Division.

“Old Qin, I’ve heard that your Immortal Qin Clan is about to go to war with the Langya Clan?” The young girl spoke calmly.

“You have heard of this matter, Goddess Shen Ji?” The Immortal Qin Clan ancestor was somewhat surprised but then nodded lightly. “The Langya Clan is ambitious and deceitful. They orchestrated the theft of my Three Solar Fruit. This grudge must be avenged, so the battle is inevitable.”

“There is a scheme by the Spirit Blood Sect behind this. The battle should not proceed,” the young girl said calmly.

“Spirit Blood Sect?” The Immortal Qin Clan ancestor was taken aback. His expression grew serious. “How do you know about this, Goddess Shen Ji?”
