Otherworldly-Cultivator-Chapter 632 Lurking Danger II

In another forest area, the core disciples of the Mystic Moon Sect did not sleep comfortably like Chen Li's group, and they rested in the open without using tents or anything else. Despite the chilly air in the forest, none of them appeared cold, perhaps because they were accustomed to cultivating in their icy rooms.

Xuanyuan Lingyan differed from them as she did not possess the ice element, and the cold in the forest was quite bothersome, forcing her to sit by the campfire and use her qi to warm herself.

Suddenly, Xiao Rong laughed while speaking to her sect disciples. "Haha! This forest isn't as scary as I previously imagined, and the beasts inside aren't all that strong either; I was able to kill quite a lot of them today."

"Then you can go to that area, and you will meet powerful beasts there." Qing Yan stated this while pointing to the cemetery located far to the left. "Fortunately, Sect Master Lan has given us the best and safest route, so we don't need to encounter those powerful beasts. Otherwise, confronting them would overwhelm us, particularly given that their cultivation has reached the Heaven Realm and beyond.

"Rong, you have to be careful because they will come out soon." Xiao Rong and the others immediately turned to Hua Lingxi after hearing her words. "Honestly, I don't know whether the rumors are true or not, but I've heard some people say that they heard strange noises in this forest, and some of them also saw many spirits haunting this place, so-"

"Stop!" Tan Mei'er screamed while hugging herself, and they could see that she was shaking. "Lingxi! You shouldn't talk about such things at this time of night! I tried not to remember those stories, but you brought that matter up instead."

"Mei'er, oh Mei'er. Fortunately, Sister Zenyu didn't join us in our training this time, or else she would have scolded you endlessly because you are the most timid among us." Tan Mei'er put on a sullen look because of that, especially since Zi Zhenyu was the bravest among them, and she had been scolded by her too many times. "In fact, ghosts do exist, and I've met them several times. They are usually the ghosts of people who died with regrets still lingering in their souls, so they can never enter the circle of reincarnation, making their souls lost in this world."

"Ugh!" Tan Mei'er groaned in annoyance as she covered her ears with her hands, making the other disciples laugh at her.

"Have you ever met a ghost, Meifen?"

"Yes." Mei Meifen nodded to Jia Ling. "Not only me, but all members of my Mei Clan possess the ability to see ghosts, a trait that our clan has inherited from my great-grandmother's father. Since then, everyone in our clan has never stopped seeing ghosts, especially since we didn't know how to control our abilities. Initially, many of us were afraid and uncomfortable with our situation, but we were slowly able to adapt to it, so we can live peacefully now."

"So your ability is like an innate ability, right?" This time, it was Xuanyuan Liuli who asked Mei Meifen. "Honestly, there is a record in my Xuanyuan Clan about people who cultivate using ghosts, and they call themselves ghost cultivators. If I remember correctly, people from the Gui Clan are one of them, but Ancestor Lanyin has slaughtered many members of that clan in the past, so their numbers shouldn't be that many now."

"Yes." Mei Meifen answered with a nod. "According to my great-grandfather, the Gui Clan were indeed ghost cultivators, and they used to be stronger than the Mo Clan. However, your ancestor's actions destroyed that clan, and they were never able to rise again afterwards. Despite this, the clan remnants are still formidable, with their matriarch, Gui Yin, no less powerful than Mo Tianxie, the Sect Master of the Dark Moon Sect.

Hearing that, Yi Zhongxian spoke to them. "Hey, if I think about it, our realm ruler and her aides are truly powerful, and we still have other powerful cultivators like our sect master, so they should be able to destroy the Dark Moon Sect if they all join forces to attack them. Yet they let those heretics roam free, and they continue to cause trouble in all regions."

"I agree with my sister." Yi Zhonglian spoke while nodding. "Sect Master Lian is very strong; his strength should not be too far from our ruler, so she is much stronger than her aides. Furthermore, her parents are equally powerful as she is, ensuring that those heretics would never dare set foot in this region. Therefore, they should all be able to work together to defeat and eliminate these heretics.

"You guys are right that our ruler and others can eliminate the Dark Moon Sect, but their actions will disrupt the balance in this realm, and we will slack off if we live our lives too peacefully and never face danger. Most of the evil people in this realm are related to them, and that is the reason Ancestor Lanyin didn't completely wipe out the Gui Clan in the past." Those female disciples turned to Xuanyuan Lingyan with a confused look, especially since they thought that their lives would be much better if those evil people disappeared forever. "Unlike our current lives, my ancestor's life was never peaceful in the past, and she always faced danger all the time, especially since the situation in her home realm was chaotic, not only from people from that realm, but the chaos also came from people from other realms who were trying to control that realm. That's why she always strived hard to become strong in order to protect our clan, and their lives were much better after they moved to this realm and established the new Xuanyuan Clan."

"Hey, Lingyan, does that mean Xuanyuan Wan'er and Xuanyuan Feng'er came from another realm?" Yi Zhonglian asked her. "I remember for sure that none of your clan members live in other regions, and they all live together where you live now."

Xuanyuan Lingyan released a soft sigh and nodded to her. "You are correct; they did come from another realm, and the person who brought them here was Dongfang Hanxue's husband. Although Long Wang's cultivation is still in the 1st stage of Earth Realm, his strength is far beyond your imagination, and I myself feel afraid to face him."

"Was Long Wang responsible for Uncle Jingtian's death?"

Xuanyuan Lingyan had no intention of answering Hua Lingxi's question, but she and the others could guess that it was indeed Chen Li who killed Xuanyuan Jingtian. However, they felt confused about the reason why he killed him, and they were also confused about the decision of the Xuanyuan Clan, who seemed to accept his death just like that.

"Rather than you guys thinking about that matter, it would be better if all of you rested, so we can continue our training tomorrow, and we are willing to accept Uncle Jingtian's death." After she said that, Xuanyuan Lingyan immediately crossed her legs with her sword in his lap, and she decided to cultivate.

Mei Meifen and the others immediately turned to Xuanyuan Liuli, but she also had no intention of saying anything about Xuanyuan Jingtian's death, especially since her great-grandmother had forbidden her to talk about it.

In the end, they chose to give up on finding out why Chen Li killed Xuanyuan Jingtian. Then, some of them decided to rest, while others chose to cultivate.

Unfortunately, they were unaware that there was danger lurking in the darkness, and the two old men watching them from afar were also unaware of the presence of those few figures.

After they talked for a long time, Feng Xian'er and the others decided to rest before continuing their training tomorrow. However, Lin Qingzhu, who had a heavy burden in her heart, immediately pulled Chen Li into her tent. When they got inside, she pulled him to lay down by her side and hugged him tightly, making Chen Li feel guilty. "Are you still thinking about my past memories, Mom?"

"En." Lin Qingzhu nodded and hugged Chen Li tighter. "You have said that you will never change, but I still can't get rid of the worry in my heart that you will forget about me, and I don't dare imagine what my life would be like without you by my side."

Chen Li let out a soft sigh while rubbing Lin Qingzhu's back, and he then tried to calm her down. "Mom, you are the woman who gave birth to me in this lifetime, and I might not have been able to reach this stage if another woman had given birth to me. That's why I will never forget you, because you are one of the most important women in my life, and I will always accompany you forever."

"Haha." Lin Qingzhu laughed at that. "Promise that you will never leave me, Li'er."

"Yeah, I promise that I will never leave you, and my life will never be good if I break my promise to you." Chen Li said that without the slightest hesitation, and Lin Qingzhu looked at him directly, making their eyes meet each other. He then rubbed her cheeks with a smile. "Why are you looking at me like this?"
