Chapter 514: Master

Lord Qin briefly recounted what he knew about the Night Emperor. He didn't have much information about him.

The Night Emperor, the overlord of the Endless Territory, is a top powerhouse in the Eastern Flame Territory!

After listening, Zhu Bajie couldn't help but stroke his chin and murmured, "The overlord of the Endless Territory, I'm afraid even I, old pig, won't be able to defeat him."

Not just afraid!

It's certain!

Lord Qin shook his head and smiled. The top priority was still to find Yang Jian. He still had a chance for peak divine and demonic power, a chance to summon a divine and demonic legion, a chance for skill inheritance, and a divine and demonic instance.

As long as he could restore Yang Jian to his peak, he should be able to compete with the Night Emperor.

As for Jinchanshi, Lord Qin felt that this was already his limit, even though he was the second disciple of the Tathagata.

"Let's rest for now. They probably won't dare to come again. We'll set off early tomorrow morning!" Lord Qin waved his hand and smiled, saying that the vastness of the Endless Territory was unimaginable. Even if the Night Emperor received the news and rushed over, it would probably take a day or two.

Zhu Bajie and Liu Ruolai had no objections.

Liu Ruolai followed Lord Qin to a big tree, still curious about Lord Qin's so-called aura, asking non-stop questions and showing no signs of sleepiness.

Looking at Zhu Bajie, the pig fell asleep as soon as he lay down.

"Alright, don't ask too much. Knowing too much is not good for you," Lord Qin said seriously, scaring Liu Ruolai into not daring to ask any more questions.

Ah! Teenage rebellion is a pain.

Lord Qin sighed as he began to meditate and gather energy.

The night passed without a word.

The next morning, just as the sun was rising, Lord Qin and his two companions set off.

Sitting on the clouds, Lord Qin helplessly said, "If we don't find a human city, we might really be flying deeper into the Endless Territory."

Zhu Bajie and Liu Ruolai couldn't help but smile awkwardly. They didn't know the way either. Three directionally challenged people together was truly asking for trouble.

"System, is there a way to summon Yang Jian and Jinchanshi here?" Lord Qin asked in his mind. Who knew if Yang Jian and Jinchanshi were in the Eastern Flame Territory.

They hadn't been to the Southern Territory either, so if they wanted to meet up, it might take hundreds of years.

"Host, rest assured, Yang Jian and Jinchanshi are also in the Eastern Flame Territory. They have a way to find the host. The host just needs to wait," the system replied. The system knew everything about each divine and demonic being, including their abilities.

Upon hearing this, Lord Qin felt relieved.

The clouds continued to fly, crossing mountains and time quickly passed.

About an hour later, they encountered another wave of demonic beasts.

The leading demon king had reached the seventh level of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, which made Lord Qin amazed. Damn, were the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm beings everywhere in the Endless Territory?

Without the existence of Taiyi Loose Immortal realm beings, Zhu Bajie fought easily and soon scared the opponent away.

"Should we turn back?" Liu Ruolai asked cautiously.

Turn back?

Lord Qin rolled his eyes and said irritably, "Haven't you heard the story of the well digger?"

"No," Liu Ruolai said in confusion, while Zhu Bajie also looked at him curiously.

"It's about how every time the well digger was about to reach the underground river, he gave up and started over, never reaping any rewards," Lord Qin said helplessly.

Turning back now would take several days.

And it wasn't certain that they could return the same way, because he had already forgotten the way they came.

The scenery along the way was all similar, making it difficult to distinguish.

"Hey, look over there!"

Zhu Bajie suddenly pointed in the distance, prompting Lord Qin and Liu Ruolai to turn and look.

In the distance, at the end of the forest, there was the outline of a city wall, stretching endlessly, as if it separated the entire forest, which was quite spectacular.

"We finally found it!"

Lord Qin breathed a sigh of relief and quickly flew towards the city.

Soon, the three of them landed in front of the city gate.

However, to Lord Qin's dismay, there were no soldiers in front of the city gate, and the gate was still wide open. He instinctively spread out his divine sense and found that there was not a single person within several miles.

"Could it be an abandoned city..." Lord Qin's forehead creased.

Zhu Bajie also smiled bitterly and shouted, "Never mind, let's go in and take a look. My mouth is getting bland."

Lord Qin nodded. The fact that the city hadn't been damaged indicated that it hadn't encountered a beast tide and was likely abandoned recently.

Perhaps there were people hiding on the other side of the city.

Liu Ruolai was a little scared and had been sticking close to Lord Qin all the way.

An uninhabited city in broad daylight was absolutely terrifying.

As they walked through the streets and into the central area of the city, they still didn't encounter a single person.

"Let's look for a teleportation gate," Lord Qin scanned the streets on both sides and pondered.

"Why are you looking for a portal?" Liu Ruolai asked curiously.

Zhu Bajie was busy rummaging through the wine vat in front of the inn's door.

"To send you away," Qin Jun replied, his gaze sweeping around.

His words made Liu Ruolai scream, her hands on her hips as she exclaimed, "I'm not going back, I want to follow you!"

"Don't be silly. If you follow me, you're likely to die," Qin Jun said without looking at her, walking ahead.

"You're so powerful, how could I die?" Liu Ruolai said incredulously.

The days she spent following Qin Jun were the most exciting time of her life; she enjoyed the adventure.

"I'm going to kill the Night Emperor next. Do you think you'll survive?" Qin Jun said impatiently.

Liu Ruolai stood still, shocked. The Night Emperor? She couldn't help but doubt her ears. Unlike Qin Jun and Zhu Bajie, she had known about the Night Emperor since she was young, knowing that he was the greatest demon king in the Eastern Flame Domain, even the domain lord couldn't do anything to him.

This legendary figure was someone she never thought anyone could kill. When she heard that the Night Emperor was chasing them before, she was already scared. Now, hearing that Qin Jun dared to go and kill the Night Emperor, her first reaction was that Qin Jun was crazy.

"Don't be impulsive. You're not from the Eastern Flame Domain, you don't know how powerful the Night Emperor is!" Liu Ruolai hurriedly advised as she caught up with Qin Jun.

"Oh? How powerful is he?" Qin Jun raised an eyebrow.

Liu Ruolai hesitated and couldn't really describe how strong the Night Emperor was. Although she often heard people talk about the Night Emperor, her understanding of him was not much different from Qin Jun's. It's just that her awe of the Night Emperor far exceeded Qin Jun's.

"Your Majesty, you've made it hard for me to find you!" At that moment, a familiar laughter rang out.

Qin Jun looked up and saw Jin Chanzi strolling over, his face beaming with a golden light, which made Liu Ruolai widen her eyes, thinking he was like the Buddha in a myth.

Not far away, when Zhu Bajie heard Jin Chanzi's voice, he was struck as if by lightning, swallowing hard and turning around. When he saw Jin Chanzi, he was so scared that he collapsed on the ground, calling out, "Master... why are you here..."

Jin Chanzi looked at Zhu Bajie in surprise and said, "What a powerful demon you are."

Qin Jun almost burst out laughing. Zhu Bajie knew Jin Chanzi, but Jin Chanzi didn't recognize Zhu Bajie. There was nothing more painful in the world than this.

Suddenly, I've fallen in love with it, writing two chapters in one go and then updating. (End of this chapter)
