Chapter 108: Thrown back to the Southern Regions

In reality, Jiang Yifeng touched his chin as he pondered.

"Is what Bai Moyu said in the simulation true?"

Something felt off.

According to Bai Moyu, the Nine Mystic Realm had been in a constant state of war.

He could understand the concept of poison cultivation in such a scenario.

But Jiang Yifeng still couldn't wrap his head around it.

He remembered from previous simulations that whenever his father or the Lady in Red broke through to the Immortal Realm, it brought about a cataclysmic disaster for the Southern Regions.

It didn't matter if the one taking action was a powerful figure from the Nine Mystic Realm or the Immortal Realm.

It all seemed very unreasonable.

After all, could it be that anyone who broke through to the Immortal Realm was destined to become a Poison King?

According to Bai Moyu, the war in the Nine Mystic Realm had been ongoing for millions of years. Could a single Immortal Realm expert really change the entire landscape of the Nine Mystic Realm?

Clearly, that was impossible!

Jiang Yifeng furrowed his brows, contemplating, "Could Bai Moyu be deliberately deceiving me?"

But that didn't seem right either!

The simulation had shown that Bai Moyu's strength was transcendent, even the Eye of Insight couldn't see through him.

What benefit would such a powerful figure gain from deceiving him?

Or perhaps Bai Moyu's conjecture was simply incorrect?

Maybe Bai Moyu himself didn't know the real reason?

"I just can't figure it out," Jiang Yifeng muttered to himself, shaking his head.

However, he decided that Bai Moyu's words couldn't be fully trusted.

Many things might still need to be verified personally within the simulation.

Nevertheless, Jiang Yifeng believed that the credibility of those three maps was still quite high.

After all, they corresponded with the locations of the cracks in the sealing formation of the Southern Regions.

In the end, he stopped thinking about it and looked at the simulator.

[You heard Bai Moyu's words and felt a bit suspicious, sensing that there might be some issues with what he said.]

[You were very puzzled.]

[But you couldn't directly ask about it.]

[You couldn't just say, "Why can't anyone in the Southern Regions break through to the Immortal Realm? Does breaking through to the Immortal Realm make you a Poison King?" Such words!]

[After all, you knew it was really hard to live by hiding in the Southern Regions for long.]

[So, as soon as you entered the Southern Regions, you headed back towards the crack in the formation, intending to return to the "Eastern Regions" through it!]

[But just as you approached the crack, Bai Moyu's voice came from outside.]

[He shouted, telling you that he could only hold off the formation spirit for a moment, urging you to leave quickly.]

[Hearing this, you temporarily gave up your recent idea.]

[However, you were now even more puzzled.]

[Was Bai Moyu deceiving you? Or was he telling the truth?]

[Although you remembered the Mystic Turtle saying before that the formation spirit didn't allow people from the Southern Regions to leave through here.]

[But since you had just come in through here, you thought the Mystic Turtle might have been lying to you.]

[After all, if this sealing formation was set up by the predecessors of the Celestial Verdant Sect to protect the people of the Southern Regions, it shouldn't prevent them from entering and leaving.]

[But now that Bai Moyu said the same thing, you had no choice but to believe it.]

[Still, you felt something was off.]

[Bai Moyu's words gave you a strong sense of dissonance.]

[Could it be that Bai Moyu was very foolish? Mixing up his previous statements with his current actions?]

[Otherwise, how could it be like this?]

[After all, his words and actions were contradictory!]

[Moreover, his current act of throwing you back into the Southern Regions.]

[This was clearly throwing you into the fire.]

[Wasn't he afraid that you would resent him and doubt everything he had told you before?]

[Well, it seemed he didn't need to be afraid, as he was much stronger than you.]

[But once you started doubting, what was the point of everything he had told you before?]

[Could it be that he had also stored his memories about this in the underground chamber?]

[But you still felt it was wrong; he remembered to send you back to the Southern Regions, so those memories shouldn't be sealed temporarily.]

[As you were puzzling over this.]

[Bai Moyu had already returned to the Celestial Verdant Sect, back to the underground bronze gate.]

[Just as he arrived, a female voice questioned him, "Why did you lie to him!"]

[If you were there, you would have seen that the one questioning him was Bai Ruoxue.]

[Bai Moyu looked at Bai Ruoxue, who was immobilized, and smiled, "My dear daughter, when did I ever lie to him?"]
