Alone in a room, a man and a woman were like dry firewood and blazing flames—igniting at the slightest spark.
Looking at Shui Tianyi, Shui Miao suddenly felt a surge of impulse, a sudden desire to conquer.
“Uh…”
Shui Tianyi happened to look up and caught Shui Miao staring at her intently. Her heart immediately pounded wildly, and her face flushed red in an instant…
In such matters, women are usually far more sensitive than men. Just a glance is enough for them to understand.
Already having a slight fondness for Shui Miao, Shui Tianyi seemed to see desire in his eyes, and her heart became complicated.
“Shui Miao, you… what are you looking at?”
Shui Tianyi switched from calling him “brother” to “Shui Miao,” subtly signaling her approval for their relationship to deepen.
“Oh, nothing. It’s just that there seems to be some dirt on your face…”
Shui Miao instinctively replied quickly.
“Eh?”
“Where? Where is it?”
Shui Tianyi instinctively reached to touch her face, but quickly regained her composure. “Shui Miao, wait for me…”
But Shui Miao had already left the palace!
Shui Tianyi hurried after him, gently biting her lip. She reached out and grabbed his hand tightly, playfully teasing with nervousness, “Why are you in such a hurry? Are you trying to ditch me?”
“Uh, no. I just sensed something—it feels like there might be evil spirits…”
Shui Miao tried to pull his hand away, but found it held too tightly.
“Evil spirits? Where?”
Shui Tianyi knew Shui Miao was lying and looked around fearlessly.
Once a woman gets emotionally involved, it’s truly hard to stop!
In his heart, Shui Miao felt regret. What was the point of glancing carelessly? Now he’d caused trouble. If this wasn’t handled properly, it would become another disastrous romantic entanglement!
“Whoosh… whoosh… whoosh… whoosh…”
Suddenly, a series of sharp whistles rang out, and five dark figures swiftly flew over.
Speak of evil spirits, and they appear!
Shui Miao’s heart stirred. He immediately pushed Shui Tianyi’s hand away, lowering his voice, “Five of them. Their movements are fast—they seem quite formidable.”
“Really?”
Seeing Shui Miao’s tense expression, Shui Tianyi felt a chill, though she remained somewhat skeptical.
“Why would I lie to you?”
Shui Miao frowned, whispering in irritation as he quickly activated a magical artifact to conceal their presence.
“There’s the aura of celestial cultivators, definitely humans!”
“Seems like they might even be experts!”
“Yeah, they must at least be at the Immortal Emperor level. If they managed to get here, they must have some skill.”
“Brother, those ancient formation manuals from the Ziwei Pavilion are gone. They must have taken them.”
“They took the formation manuals—could they be artifact crafters?”
“Most likely. Who else would want those old formation techniques!”
“Good! Then we’ll find them, capture them, and make them forge artifacts for us.”
The five dark figures spoke loudly without any caution.
This time, Shui Tianyi felt it too.
“How dare they! Five little fools think they can challenge us? They’re practically asking for it. Let me go out and deal with them,” Shui Tianyi angrily muttered, her mood ruined by these five evil spirits. She couldn’t let them off easily.
“Sister, don’t rush. These five fiends might still be useful.”
Shui Miao immediately vanished and reappeared beside the five dark figures.
Shui Tianyi followed closely behind.
The five evil figures instantly became alert and surrounded Shui Miao and Shui Tianyi.
These five evil spirits were pitch black from head to toe, like shadows rather than real people.
“Hmph! I thought who it was. Turns out they’re just shadow puppets. You think you can challenge me?” Shui Tianyi’s fiery temper couldn’t contain itself. Seeing only shadows, she immediately judged them as puppets and turned to Shui Miao, saying, “Shui Miao, they’re merely soul puppets. Nothing to fear. In the Demon Realm, evil cultivators create shadow puppets, implanting a fragment of their soul into them to commit atrocities. Even if they die, they only lose a small portion of their soul.”
Hearing this, Shui Miao frowned deeply.
It wasn’t the shadow puppets that troubled him, but rather his frustration at Shui Tianyi’s recklessness in calling his name directly.
Thankfully, all his family and friends were on the Yijing Planet. Otherwise, he’d truly have been compromised by her.
“Hey, this little lady dares to look down on us?”
“Brother, let’s move. Let me grab her, pull down her pants, and spank her ass…”
“Hahaha…”
The five shadow puppets showed no fear, speaking disrespectfully and laughing wildly.
Shui Miao couldn’t help but wonder why these weak fiends dared to be so brazen. Besides being puppets, what else were they relying on?
“You’re asking for death!”
Insulted by the group of small evil spirits, Shui Tianyi, the Holy Mother, couldn’t swallow her anger. She immediately activated her innate magical artifact and charged toward one of the shadow puppets. But the puppet was incredibly fast, dodging behind her and giving her butt a hard grope!
This little evil spirit was so bold as to dare touch the Holy Mother’s rear, relying solely on his speed.
“Damn it!”
Enraged, the Holy Mother Shui Tianyi suddenly activated her life-bound treasure, an ultimate holy artifact…
The artifact’s formation was extremely unique. Once activated, the air within hundreds of meters instantly froze. Beautiful flowing water sounds and cheerful laughter from women playing in the water echoed. Even Shui Miao was affected, as if seeing a different spring scene—nymphs with snow-white skin frolicking in mountain springs.
“Master, this is the Great Water Illusionary Sound Technique. Don’t listen to it, or you’ll be trapped in illusions forever!”
“Tsk! Zha!”
Just as Shui Miao was immersed in the illusion, seeing many naked, seductive fairies, his innate artifact sensed danger and quickly snapped him out.
Shui Miao’s body trembled, and he immediately regained clarity.
He saw that above Shui Tianyi’s head floated a mirror emitting blue light, while in her other hand appeared a flaming sword. With swift thrusts, she shattered the puppets and destroyed the tiny soul fragments hidden inside.
In the blink of an eye, four puppets were destroyed.
“Sister, wait. I still need this one.”
Shui Miao’s heart stirred. He immediately activated his Time Protection Bead, flashing to the puppet’s front, grabbing its head, pushing it forward while simultaneously using his Nightmare Heart Method to extract memories.
“This pisses me off!”
Still furious, Shui Tianyi rushed to Shui Miao and shouted, “Shui Miao, hand him over to me. I’ll destroy him.”
“Tai Gu… Immortal City?”
Shui Miao suddenly blurted out.
Shui Tianyi was stunned. “What did you say?”
“It’s the Tai Gu Immortal City! Definitely the lost Tai Gu Immortal City!” Shui Miao’s expression was excited as he destroyed the puppet’s soul fragment. He turned to Holy Mother Shui Tianyi, exclaiming excitedly, “From this puppet’s memory, I learned they’re just a minor gang from the Demon Realm. Many factions, big and small, are all gathered in the Tai Gu Immortal City over ten miles away. The Tai Gu Immortal City is one of the oldest cities in the Immortal Realm, filled with countless treasures left from the ancient era.”
“Really? It’s truly the Tai Gu Immortal City!?”
Holy Mother Shui Tianyi’s heart stirred, instantly excited. “That’s wonderful, Shui Miao! Let’s go there now. Wait… no, no. The Tai Gu Immortal City is over ten miles away, and the yin and evil energy there must be extremely heavy. We might not withstand it. Plus, there are many sects there—we won’t be able to enter!”
“Don’t worry. We have this.”
Shui Miao flipped his hand, revealing the shell of a puppet—the very same evil spirit puppet they had just captured.
