Cultivation: the Rise of a Live-In Son-In-Law-Chapter 289 - 287: Red Cloud Fairy’s Troubles, a Broken Soul Forbidden Land Mission? Even Youluo Doesn’t Know Where the Nether River Leads?
"Those who are meant to leave can’t be retained, those who must go, will eventually depart..."
The Red Cloud Fairy sighed softly, wearing a scarlet long dress.
Since meeting this person, the Red Cloud Fairy noticed that the number of times she sighed might have exceeded all her past sighs combined.
"Since it will come to pass, I... wish you smooth sailing."
...
Task Hall.
The Task Hall was bustling with excitement every day.
But today, it seemed even more lively than usual.
After all, since Lu Xuan from the Sect Leader Peak appeared in the Red Cloud Sect.
Every time the Ten-Star Task refreshed, it would cause a sensation.
At this moment, many disciples who were immersed in cultivation had also gathered in the hall, closely watching the entrance.
Amidst the eager anticipation of everyone...
That seemingly unremarkable figure appeared once again outside the gates, slowly walking toward the hall.
As soon as Lu Ye entered the hall, his gaze naturally fell on the array screen.
After seeing the third Ten-Star Task, his eyebrows slightly raised.
[Ten-Star Task (Extremely Dangerous!): Travel to the Northern Territory, seek a Tier Four Fire Flame Essence Stone, most likely to be found in the Broken Soul Forbidden Land.]
[Complete the task to earn: 200,000 points!]
Looking at the brief description of the third task, Lu Ye frowned slightly in thought.
He knew about the Broken Soul Forbidden Land, notorious like the Black Tide Forbidden Land.
"Let’s go check it out first..."
After pondering for a moment, Lu Ye still went to the task window and accepted the task.
The disciple in charge of issuing tasks was already quite skilled.
Quickly stamping the Ten-Star Task information onto the Task Jade Token, they handed it to Lu Ye with reverence.
"Brother Lu, the task is ready for you..."
"Thank you."
As Lu Ye was about to turn and leave, the Task Hall disciple whispered.
"Well, Brother Lu... could you give me a signature?"
For such a legendary disciple who takes on Ten-Star Tasks, within the short span in the Red Cloud Sect, even Lu Ye didn’t know he already had many admirers.
This Task Hall disciple was one of them.
After thinking for a moment, Lu Ye did not refuse.
He quickly wrote down the name "Lu Xuan" and nodded slightly before leaving the Task Hall.
Meanwhile, many envious eyes watched the bold Task Hall disciple who dared to ask for a signature.
This was a signature of Brother Lu Xuan...
In the entire Red Cloud Sect, it was probably one of a kind?
...
After leaving Red Cloud Sect, while flying in mid-air, Lu Ye took a moment to ponder before inquiring to Youluo.
After all, with Youluo’s extensive resources, it’s possible she might have a Fire Flame Essence Stone.
If she has it, it would save the trouble of seeking it in the Broken Soul Forbidden Land.
Unfortunately, Youluo’s response came quickly, but she did not have it.
[Youluo doesn’t have this, dear master husband, why are you asking about this item?]
Lu Ye: [It has some use, since you don’t have it, I’ll go to the Broken Soul Forbidden Land to look for it.]
Youluo: [Ah... you want to go to the Broken Soul Forbidden Land?! It’s very dangerous there!]
Youluo: [No way... Youluo must come to protect you, quickly tell me where you are, in case you get hurt, the master will be heartbroken.]
Lu Ye shook his head: [Just stay in Cloud Leaf City at ease, I have already been to the Black Tide Forbidden Land, I suppose the difficulty in the Broken Soul Forbidden Land will not differ too much.]
Youluo: "..."
In Cloud Leaf City, holding the Communication Jade Token, Youluo felt somewhat sullen.
To actually refuse her... it was truly infuriating.
However, seeing her master husband say he had already been to the Black Tide Forbidden Land, Youluo felt slightly astonished.
On the other hand, Lu Ye suddenly thought of one thing.
The Black Tide Nether River in the Black Tide Forbidden Land... is it possibly related to the Nine Netherworld?
With Youluo, a genuine member of the Nine Nether Race, present, it’s a good time to ask.
[By the way, Youluo, do you know about the Black Tide Nether River?]
Youluo: [Of course, I know, it’s the mysterious black water river rumored in the Black Tide Forbidden Land.]
Lu Ye: [I’ve heard the Black Tide Nether River might have some connection with the Nine Nether, did you hear anything about it in the Nine Netherworld?]
Youluo’s eyes darted around before responding: [Youluo can’t quite remember, perhaps I need to be by your side to recall what’s going on...]
Youluo understood one principle well, opportunity is something one must create themselves!
After sending this, she was slightly apprehensive, could it be... she might get refused again?
As expected, seeing Youluo’s message, Lu Ye couldn’t help but smile wryly.
[Alright, come over, I’m waiting for you outside Qingfeng City.]
He mentioned the nearest city to his current location, indicating he would wait outside for Youluo’s arrival.
On the other side, after receiving the message, Youluo clenched her little fists.
She succeeded!
She quickly dashed out of the shop, speeding towards the direction of Qingfeng City.
...
A few hours later.
Youluo successfully met Lu Ye outside the city.
Seeing Youluo hurrying over, Lu Ye smiled and said, "Well, now you should be able to recall."
"I remember now! Just earlier, Youluo had a bit of a headache, that’s why I couldn’t recall."
Coming to Lu Ye’s side, Youluo quickly displayed a fawning smile and started to rub Lu Ye’s shoulders.
"Master husband has worked hard lately, Youluo is here to help you relax."
"That black water river, I’ve also seen it once before, whether it connects to the true Nine Nether, Youluo cannot say for certain either."
"But at the time I was in the Nine Nether, I never heard of a black water river connecting to the Land of the Nine Netherworld."
"Moreover, when I went back then, I had only recovered to the ordinary Grandmaster Sixth Layer, that black water river was indeed too peculiar, getting too close, strange sounds would immediately emerge, so I dared not explore deeper."
After hearing Youluo’s words, Lu Ye pondered slightly.
Even Youluo isn’t sure if that Nether River truly leads to the Nine Nether?
It seems that the secret within might require him to become stronger before he can investigate further.
"Alright, time is of the essence, let’s head to the Broken Soul Forbidden Land."
Following Lu Ye’s words, two figures instantly dashed into the sky.
...
Within the Red Cloud Sect.
Su Wan entered the Red Cloud Fairy’s abode, informing her about Brother Lu Xuan accepting the third Ten-Star Task.
"The third task is to go to the Broken Soul Forbidden Land?"
After listening, the Red Cloud Fairy felt a bit of a headache.
She hadn’t expanded her privileges to specifically arrange it, so why were the subsequent two Ten-Star Tasks still leading to the two major Forbidden Lands?
Regarding the two Forbidden Lands, their dangers are on different levels.
The danger of the Broken Soul Forbidden Land lies in the spiritual aspect.
The entire Broken Soul Forbidden Land seems to be enveloped in a strange fluctuation.
This fluctuation could subtly influence a person’s mind.
If one’s spiritual power is not strong enough, they might completely lose themselves in it in no time.
"By the way, Master, Brother Lu Xuan said he left the sect because he is going to experience external trainings, to seek insights for a breakthrough?" Su Wan inquired with curiosity.
"Yes, more or less." The Red Cloud Fairy’s tone was calm, continuing from Lu Ye’s words.
"Solely focusing on cultivation within the sect is indeed less beneficial than taking some time to gain external experiences."
"What Master says is reasonable." Su Wan nodded, her starry eyes showing a tinge of contemplation.
She also felt like leaving the sect for a while, maybe to the Northern Territory, or to Xuanzhou to experience some adventures.
...
Elsewhere, in a certain mountain forest.
Saintess Xihua stood by a mountain spring, gazing at the reflection in the water, the more she thought, the more something seemed amiss...
