Book 8: Chapter 5: High Plain of Heaven
“Puff!”
Li Jinyao and Tang Ruowei burst into laughter when they heard this girl’s words, and even Su Xiangxue couldn’t help but grin.
“Master.”
The steel plate apprentice asked while her shoulders were still shaking:
“What silly name is this?”
Bai Qiuran glanced at Su Xiangxue.
“You ask her.”
Then he said to Kazama:
“Miss Kazama, don’t get me wrong, I am a pure-blood human. I only disguised as a demon when I was in the demon world last time.”
“Huh? Why do you know my name?”
Kazama warned:
“I remember I didn’t tell you last time.”
“I have a friend who can read some basic information about people I meet.”
Bai Qiuran waved his hand:
“It just so happened that I’m unfamiliar with Japan. You are the only one who knows me, so I wanted to ask you several things.”
According to Wise Immortal, Kazama Haruka came from the legendary Fusang Immortal Palace. Bai Qiuran estimated that even if it had nothing to do with Jiang Lan, it must have something to do with Bai Li.
But Kazama Haruka refused him.
“No, I’m not familiar with you. Besides, I have something to do now.”
“What’s up?”
Bai Qiuran glanced at her and guessed:
“If it is to kill the monsters, it is no longer necessary. Those monsters have already been killed by us.”
Kazama Haruka glanced at them, her figure moved, and in the blink of an eye, she ran to the village and went around the village for inspection. Then she returned to Bai Qiuran and the others and asked:
“Go ahead, what question do you want to ask?”
Bai Qiuran arched his hands.
“Excuse me, how can I get to Fusang Immortal Palace?”
“You want to go to Fusang Immortal Palace?”
Kazama glanced at them.
“Do you also want to obtain the immortal’s cultivation method? But Fusang Immortal Palace emphasizes fate. According to the rules, even if I am a member of it, I can’t tell you its position. You can only find it on your own.”
“Okay then.”
Seeing her resolute attitude, Bai Qiuran thought that she was not familiar with him enough to answer such a question, so he changed the question.
“Then I would like to ask you that is there a girl named Jiang Lan in Fusang Immortal Palace?”
Hearing Bai Qiuran’s question, Kazama’s face changed drastically in an instant. She took a step back, even subconsciously posing an attacking posture, and asked:
“Where did you hear that name?”
Bai Qiuran looked at Kazama’s posture.
She was so vigilant, there were two possibilities. One, Fusang Immortal Palace was Jiang Lan’s enemy, but looking at Kazama’s cultivation base, Bai Qiuran immediately ruled out this possibility.
He knew Jiang Lan’s strength and talents. She has cultivated for so many years, so someone like Kazama Haruka was not qualified enough to chase Jiang Lan. Even if she fought with Tang Ruowei, who has just entered the Nascent Soul stage, had a winning rate of 40-60.
Then there was only one possibility left. Jiang Lan was a member of Fusang Immortal Palace, and maybe the founder and Kazama Haruka has a close relationship with her. Maybe she was a disciple or student.
And this also meant that Bai Qiuran couldn’t use “persuade with affection” to this girl. He and Jiang Lan haven’t seen each other for hundreds of thousands of years, and in his heart, he owed Jiang Lan’s widowhood for so long. If before reuniting with her, he not only did not apologize but first beat his wife’s disciple or student, how could he face her?
No matter how low his EQ was, he knew that this kind of thing cannot be done.
So Bai Qiuran said after thinking about it:
“Girl, when your master asked you to send something, didn’t you tell you who I am?”
“You are the Sword Patriarch of the human race on that continent, right?”
Kazama Haruka maintained a vigilant posture.
It seems that Jiang Lan has never told him about his identity, and the name of Sword Patriarch was mostly likely told to her by Yun Fengge, the prime minister of the demon clan.
“Girl, think about it, your master asked you to give me the jade pendant, which means we must be old acquaintances.”
Bai Qiuran arched his hands.
“I didn’t go to the Fusang Immortal Palace to ask for an immortal technique but to find Jiang Lan to talk about the past. Can you make it easy?”
What Bai Qiuran said made sense, Kazama thought about it for a moment, and then slowly lowered his hand holding the hilt of the knife.
“I can take you there.”
Kazama Haruka said seriously.
“You finally believe it.”
Bai Qiuran breathed a sigh of relief.
“I didn’t believe you.”
Kazama Haruka replied:
“But my master’s strength is invincible in this world. Even if your intentions are evil, you don’t have the strength to do it.”
Bai Qiuran shrugged, then arched his hands:
“You are mighty, you are mighty.”
“Then let’s go and come with me.”
Kazama turned to move forward, and Bai Qiuran and the others followed. Seeing this, she stopped again.
“What happened again?”
Bai Qiuran asked.
Kazama frowned and glanced at Su Xiangxue and the others, and asked:
“They want to follow too?”
“Why, can’t it?”
Bai Qiuran asked.
“They are your main wife and concubines.”
Kazama frowned and said:
“It is an exception to let you go to Fusang Immortal Palace. How can you bring your wife and concubine together again.”
“You misunderstood, they don’t have that kind of relationship with me.”
Bai Qiuran shook his head and patted Tang Ruowei on the shoulder.
“My apprentice.”
He patted Li Jinyao on the shoulder again.
“My apprentice’s friend.”
Li Jinyao pursed her mouth angrily, but Bai Qiuran didn’t care.
Feng Jian looked at Su Xiangxue from afar.
“So what about her?”
“She was……”
Bai Qiuran looked at Su Xiangxue and replied after hesitating for a moment:
“She is my partner.”
Su Xiangxue smiled happily when she heard this, but Li Jinyao opened her mouth wide.
There is adultery.
After looking at Su Xiangxue and Bai Qiuran, Tang Ruowei guessed silently in her heart.
Master and Sect Master Su must do something that Sister Li and I did not know.
“Humph……”
Hearing that, Kazama Haruka’s face was a little unhappy.
“OK OK.”
Bai Qiuran shook his head and said:
“I believe Jiang Lan wants to see them, too. Troublesome Girl Kazama will get along again.”
“I can’t fly so many people.”
Kazama refused.
“I’ll take everyone to fly.”
Su Xiangxue summoned a clone and turned into a nine-headed white dragon with a length of hundreds of meters, a slender body, and an elegant posture. She asked the white dragon to lower her head and asked everyone to ride on it and then asked:
“How to go?”
Kazama sat on the white dragon’s neck, looked at Su Xiangxue with a complicated expression, and opened her mouth. Bai Qiuran guessed that she still wanted to refuse, but Kazama’s face was so thin that she finally sat embarrassedly.
So she could only sigh and replied:
“Go to the clouds.”
“Is the Fusang Immortal Palace built on the cloud?”
Su Xiangxue fluttered her wings and flew, and at the same time, her human body spoke to Kazama.
“Yes, but if you want to go to Fusang Immortal Palace, you have to go through a transit station.”
Kazama Haruka glanced at this woman who was so beautiful that she was a little tempted.
“We are going to High Plain of Heaven (1) first.”
