Unseen Immortal of Three Hundred Years

uddenly, he heard the movement of a wave of bugs.
The entire peach blossom grove seemed to have turned into a boiling pot.
The devils buried here, along with Hua Sect’s disciples who came one after another, all rushed towards a single place like a soaring tide.

Xiao Fuxuan:”…..”

He sighed slightly, and then, in the next second, his spiritual consciousness returned to his body.

***

The lights in the room were flickering, and the patrolling disciples outside had long gone away.

The person on the bed had already gotten off.
Though he had already been given shoes, he still wasn’t wearing them.
He stood barefoot by the window with clothes draped around his shoulders.

He opened the window halfway, letting the frigid wind blow inside.

He squinted his eyes and listened for a while, then absentmindedly plucked the string with the bell in his hand.
He turned around and asked, “Xiao Fuxuan, what’s going on outside? There’s so much activity, it’s scary.

Xiao Fuxuan:”… “

The Celestial Immortal looked for a while, not knowing how to describe the situation.
After a while, he moved his lips, “I don’t know.” Probably a pilgrimage.1Pilgrimage is the journey people take to a sacred place to worship a god.
In Chinese, it is literally translated as “towards God.”

Wu Xingxue: “…..”

After a moment of silence, he asked, “Would it sound a bit dumb if I asked which god?”

The devils underground were running fast, and the Hua Sect’s disciples also dashed as swift as river wind.

In an instant, there was already a cacophony outside the courtyard. 

Wu Xingxue leaned against the window frame and looked at him helplessly.

Xiao Fuxuan pinched his eyebrows.

***

Wu Xingxue suddenly felt a hard tug from the string.

The next second, he had tightly grasped his wrist.

“Close your eyes.” Xiao Fuxuan’s voice fell on him.

He felt a deep winter’s wind, along with the moist river air, sweep around them.
When he opened his eyes again, he was already standing somewhere else.

“This is?” Wu Xingxue studied his environment.

“Peach Blossom Island’s Disciples’ Hall.” Xiao Fuxuan also looked around while still holding onto his hand.

Because all the disciples had gone to chase the devils, the whole hall was empty.

Wu Xingxue looked at Xiao Fuxuan and suddenly asked, “Just now, were you doing what they say in storybooks, meditating?”

“No,” I say.

“Oh,” Wu Xingxue nodded.
“If not, then it must be that you went out to look for something.”

Xiao Fuxuan suddenly turned to look at him.

After a moment, he said quietly, “Mm”. 

“What were you looking for?” asked Wu Xingxue.

Xiao Fuxuan remained silent for a bit before replying, “A thing that was taken away a long time ago, and then returned.”

***

When Wu Xingxue killed Yi Wusheng’s father, brother, wife, and daughter, they were in the Immortal Capital.
By the time he had rushed to Chunfan City’s Peach Blossom Island, he could only catch some word of the outcomes.

The rumors said that Wu Xingxue wanted help from Yi Wusheng only as an excuse.

He was an unscrupulous devil in charge of the entire Zhaoye City.
With so many devils and demons under his control, what help could he seek from Yi Wusheng?

He changed his appearance and pretended to be a guest at Peach Blossom Island only because he was looking for something.

Legends say that the Hua Sect had a heavenly treasure.
Ever since Wu Xingxue left Peach Blossom Island that year, the treasure has disappeared as well.

No one knew what that heavenly treasure was, and no one knew why Wu Xingxue took it either.
All the people knew was that not long after, the Heavenly Treasure was returned to Peach Blossom Island.

And the second day after that happened, Wu Xingxue slaughtered his way into the Immortal Capital.

At that time, Xiao Fuxuan didn’t have any time to analyze the situation at all, and died along with the destruction of Immortal Capital.

Now that he was back at Peach Blossom Island, he wanted to find that treasure.

And ironically, the person who stole that thing back then was standing right in front of him.
Yet Wu Xingxue had no idea of the past.
He just nodded and said, “No wonder.
I noticed that you’ve been looking around.”

As they were talking, another earth-shattering voice sounded outside the disciple’s hall. 

It must be that the devils underground, who found the guest rooms empty, were now coming towards the Disciples’ Hall on the east side. 

Wu Xingxue glanced outside and asked Xiao Fuxuan, “Where have you looked already? And where haven’t you looked yet? How about we just search the rest of the places? “

Xiao Fuxuan:”… “

“There’s still Punishment Hall, Meditating Hall, Sutra Hall, and Qiwu Pavilion left.”

……

So that night, under the suggestion of Devil Lord Wu Xingxue, Celestial Immortal Xiao Fuxuan went around in circles, also bringing all the demons accumulated in the Peach Blossom Grove for hundreds of years, as well as nearly a thousand Hua Sect disciples, with them.
Under their lead, the entire Peach Blossom Island was plowed.

In the end, they stopped at Qiwu Pavilion, where Yi Wusheng was currently in seclusion. 

However, the Qiwu Pavilion that should’ve been filled with the scent of medicine was currently completely empty, without a trace of the person who should’ve been cultivating in seclusion inside.

“Where did he go?” Wu Xingxue looked around and asked after not seeing anyone.

Xiao Fuxuan suddenly remembered what he had heard on the road before.

That disciple said that Yi Wusheng must wait until tomorrow noon before leaving seclusion.
Otherwise, all his previous hard work would be in vain. 

“What kind of seclusion is that brutal?” Wu Xingxue heard him and muttered, “Since it’s like this, then what kind of thing must have happened to make him suddenly end his seclusion?”

Just as he was about to search again, he suddenly heard Xiao Fuxuan say, in a solemn voice, “… found him.”

Wu Xingxue turned around, seeing that Xiao Fuxuan was standing by the second-floor window, looking downwards.

He looked over along Xiao Fuxuan’s line of sight, only to see that below the Qiwu Pavilion, countless tossing “earthworms” were directly rushing towards them.
Within the splattering mud and thick fog, there was also a person clumsily charging over, along with the devils.

Wu Xingxue was stunned for a moment, “That’s Yi Wusheng? He’s—“

On a pilgrimage? Xiao Fuxuan answered his question before he could ask it.

It was said that during midnight, when foul energy was the strongest, or when a strong invader entered, all the devils on Peach Blossom Island would uncontrollably move towards that strong being.

That was the insuppressible natural instinct of devils.
