Chapter 202: Chapter 157 Sister’s Letter (Seeking Monthly Ticket)_2
"Human Clan, Martial Alliance, demons..."
He muttered to himself, these are just the tip of the iceberg of the outside world.
The so-called Human World is merely a greenhouse built by the Martial Alliance for cultivating martial arts talents.
Now the Human World seems dangerous, but in reality, it is very safe.
At most, only Heavenly Phenomenon Level Celestials and Heavenly Phenomenon Level demons would appear in the Human World, even a Demon Saint can only descend through Demon Descent, bringing down Myriad Phenomena Demon Thought, and their actual combat power remains at the Heavenly Phenomenon Level.
So as long as he stays in the Human World, he is absolutely safe.
"Even if the demon disasters become more severe later on, my strength is also improving."
Li Qian reassured himself.
His biggest concern was strong Martial Saints and demons appearing in the Human World.
Now it seems there’s no need to worry for the time being.
In fact, as long as he ignores everything, with his current strength and keeping a low profile, he could live quite comfortably and freely.
But he couldn’t be cold-blooded to that extent.
Time flies, and more than a year has passed.
Taiwu Dao Mansion has undergone tremendous changes.
After the news of the Taiwu Dao Master’s death in battle spread, it shocked many forces within the Dao Mansion, and all the forces began to retract.
The several barrier camps initially established around the Huilong Mountain Range, except for the Divine Sword Army Camp, all suffered heavy losses, though none were completely wiped out like the Taiwu Dao Mansion camp.
This was still because Li Qian eliminated two of the strongest demons, forcing the Yellow Wolf Demon Saint to retreat to Lion Camel Demon City, and the demons attacking other camps withdrew upon receiving orders.
Otherwise, besides the Divine Sword Army Camp, the fate of the other camps wouldn’t have been much better.
Now all these barrier camps have withdrawn from the Huilong Mountain Range, including the Divine Sword Sect barrier camp, thus forming a huge vacuum zone between the defensive line and Huilong Mountain Range.
There’s no choice, without openly stationed Heavenly Phenomenon Level Celestials, none of the forces have any confidence.
Only retracting the defense line is feasible.
This gives more room for activity to the demons emerging frequently from the Lion Camel Demon City, rampaging all over the place.
Li Qian is not someone who ignores everything; he patrols around the Lion Camel Demon City periodically, clearing any encountered demons, thereby maintaining a strong deterrent against the Lion Camel Demon City, so the demons dare not venture out lightly.
After all, many lesser demons have died by his hands over this year.
Not only in Taiwu Dao... the situation in the Greater Chang region also changed significantly, the Yangwu Dao Mansion collaborated with several neighboring Dao Mansion forces, launching a counterattack and recapturing a large fallen area.
This is directly related to the three annihilated Demon Saints.
The Lion Camel Demon City has only one Demon Saint body, and the other three had run over from other places, possibly including demons from Yangwu Dao.
Without a Demon Saint stationed, it makes sense that Yangwu Dao Mansion could recapture the fallen areas.
...
Xuanzhou.
Ying Li County City.
This place is under the jurisdiction of the Taiwu Dao Mansion.
With the decline of the Taiwu Dao Mansion, losing authority, the He Family also took the opportunity to infiltrate.
In fact, taking advantage of the contraction of the Taiwu Dao Mansion forces, the Divine Sword Sect also extended their reach into Xuanzhou, as the current foundation and power of the Taiwu Dao Mansion is insufficient to occupy such a large territory.
One day, a man and a woman appeared within the county city.
The man is Li Qian, the woman is Li Mo.
"Xiao Mo, are you sure it’s here?"
Li Qian asked.
"Yes, the feeling is strongest here."
Li Mo nodded and said.
She came here with her uncle according to the special sensing of the dark turquoise bat pattern on her wrist.
Although at Chen Bell Platform, the hallucinations she experienced during her practice had almost disappeared.
But once she leaves... they reappear, and become even more severe.
Li Qian knew he must resolve this issue soon, as delaying it could lead to even more unfavorable effects.
After a period of trial, Li Mo finally managed to faintly sense the presence of another through the dark teal bat pattern.
Perhaps that one... might be Li Mo’s sister.
"However, I can only confirm that she is in this county town, as for the specific location... I can’t sense that."
Li Mo said.
"No worries, we’ll find out soon enough."
Li Qian said with a light chuckle.
Although the county town was quite large, as long as they had an area to focus on, they would eventually find it.
Thus, the two checked into an inn.
Their rooms were adjacent.
As evening approached, someone suddenly knocked on Li Mo’s door.
"What is it?"
Li Mo asked, looking at the inn’s attendant outside.
"Miss, someone asked me to give this to you."
The attendant handed over an exquisitely crafted wooden box.
"Who asked you to give it to me?"
Li Mo asked in a serious tone.
She didn’t know anyone in Yingli County, who would send her something?
Could it be her?
A thought struck Li Mo’s mind, there was only this possibility.
Since she could use that sensation to find this place... then she too could have sensed her arrival.
After the attendant left, Li Mo went to her uncle’s room.
"You can open it and see."
Li Qian said.
Li Mo nodded, then placed the exquisitely crafted wooden box on the table, flipped open the lid, and revealed a slightly yellowed pink embroidered ball.
Looking at the embroidered ball, memories about it emerged in Li Mo’s mind.
During childhood, she and her sister loved to play with this embroidered ball.
Father said it was the only relic left by their mother.
She picked up the embroidered ball, gently caressed it as if childhood memories were right before her eyes, her eyes became slightly moist.
Yet she wiped away her tears, picked up a note placed inside, gently unfolded it, revealing several rows of elegant script.
"Sister, to remove the mark on your wrist, only Myriad Phenomena Martial Intent or Demon Thought can dissolve it, nothing else can, so stop cultivating, otherwise you will sink deeper, completely becoming a pawn of the demon, unable to extricate yourself, and in the end... do not come looking for me again—left by your sister, Yu Shu."
Looking at the last signature, Li Mo no longer had any doubts.
Because her sister’s name was Yu Shu.
While she was called Qing Shu.
Li Qian also saw the content on the paper, a bit surprised, Myriad Phenomena Martial Intent can dissolve this demon mark?
His Heartless Sword Intent had already reached the progress of level 92 of the Heavenly Phenomenon.
"Uncle, do you think sister could be..."
Li Mo’s voice trembled a bit.
Li Qian knew what Li Mo meant.
Recently, activities of the Demon Sect were very frequent across the land, seducing the populace, and although the imperial government and various martial arts powers were cracking down severely, the effects were poor.
If the bat pattern on Li Mo’s hand was the demon mark of the Mu Family, then Li Mo’s sister must be a core member of some Demon Sect.
The Mu Family, utilizing the demon mark, possessed the special ability to communicate with demons.
With this ability alone, descendants of the Mu Family could hold an extremely crucial position within the Demon Sect.
