After Being Possessed By A Witch, I Became An Outlaw

Chapter 171 The Abominable Encrypted Call (Second Update)

Chapter 171: The Annoying Encrypted Communication (Second Update)

In the secret realm, Zhang Chi handed over the King Golden Carp's testament to Wenren Li.

This would help her understand the cause and effect and could be considered intelligence sharing.

At this stage, Zhang Chi and Wenren Li frequently exchanged meaningful glances, engaging in silent communication.

Gu Youyou, however, had no idea what was going on. She had been with Zhang Chi the whole time, awake when he was active and awake when he was asleep.

She was essentially on standby the entire time.

But she never realized when Zhang Chi had entrusted Wenren Li with something, nor what that something was.

"You can even guard against me now?" Zhang Chi restricted Gu Youyou's ability to read his thoughts, but most of the time, she could still sense what he was thinking.

However, during their eye contact that day, Zhang Chi didn't explain anything, and he had so many calculations in that instant that Gu Youyou couldn't hear them either.

Zhang Chi had to explain, "I didn't mean to guard against you, I just didn't think you needed an explanation."

Gu Youyou: "..."

She felt insulted by his intelligence.

In a fit of anger, she decided to ignore Zhang Chi, and Wenren Li began discussing her findings during this period.

"I've infiltrated the Dragon Transformation Palace these past few days and looked into their records.

The Dragon Transformation Palace has been in existence for over 4,300 years, with the first generation being at the Dao Integration Realm.

With such formidable strength, it naturally attracted followers. Later, these followers established their own sects and began battling the Water Monsters.

After years of expansion, the Dragon River Alliance gradually took shape."

The Dragon Transformation Palace was the earliest human force within the Dragon River Alliance. Before the Dragon Transformation Palace, this area was originally inhabited by Water Monsters and exotic beasts.

With the establishment of the Dragon River Alliance, it took many years to develop this area into human territory.

The Dragon Transformation Palace played an indispensable role in the history of the Dragon River Alliance.

However, the Water Monsters were not easily subdued. This process was a protracted war, with wars between the two races occurring every few decades or centuries, each with its own victories and defeats.

The Water Monster Race used to have a Monster Emperor at the Dao Integration Realm, but after the Monster Emperor passed away without a successor, the Water Monster Race began to decline.

Meanwhile, the Dragon Transformation Palace has undergone many iterations and updates.

Cultivators have long lifespans, but they are still limited. Ordinary cultivators at the Qi Condensation stage can live for over a hundred years without any calamities or diseases. Those at the Foundation Building stage can live for over two hundred years, Divine Soul stage for over four hundred years, Divine Ability stage for over six hundred years, and the Dao Integration Realm can live up to nine hundred years.

The lifespan of cultivators is finite. Only after transcending tribulation can their lifespan increase significantly, but it is still not immortality, just an extension of their lifespan.

This is why many cultivators in the mortal realm pursue the path of becoming immortals. In their fantasies, becoming an immortal means having an infinite lifespan.

It is normal for a faction to undergo iterations and updates, but the Dragon Transformation Palace has a Dao Integration ancestor presiding over each generation, thanks to the secret techniques of the Dragon Transformation Palace lineage.

Disciples at the Divine Ability Late Stage can receive the ancestor's blessings and inherit the Great Dao seeds, which is why the Dragon Transformation Palace always has Dao Integration cultivators presiding over it.

When the lifespan of each generation's ancestor comes to an end, they will pass on their blessings to the new generation of Divine Ability cultivators, ensuring the continuity of the lineage.

Until now, it has already been the ninth generation of ancestors, and on average, each generation of ancestors would stay in office for four to five hundred years.

"For thousands of years, every generation has to undergo initiation to break through Dao Integration? If there is no initiation, does it mean that there won't be a strong Dao Integration cultivator born here for thousands of years?"

Zhang Chi expressed his confusion, and Wenren Li pondered and also felt that there was a problem.

In a place that has existed for thousands of years, there is only one family with a strong Dao Integration cultivator, and after the Water Monster Race Monster Emperor died, there has been no new Monster Emperor appearing.

"This is a bit strange, but it doesn't necessarily indicate a problem."

"If there is a problem, it can only be in the Dragon Transformation Palace."

The two of them began to exchange glances again, and Gu Youyou couldn't understand what they were communicating.

"In any case, I have only found this much information, and with my current strength, I can't afford to provoke them."

Wenren Li said decisively, and Zhang Chi could understand.

She was also a very cautious person and would definitely not do anything dangerous.

"Then let's stop here for now!"

"Okay, let's focus on the task."

Saying that, Wenren Li began to undress.

"Time is precious, don't waste time."

Saying that, Wenren Li started to act on Zhang Chi.

"Doing this kind of thing next to your Dao companion, isn't it particularly exciting?"

She even started talking dirty.

Zhang Chi secretly complained in his heart. Not only did he do bad things in front of his Dao companion, but there was also someone watching the whole time!

Gu Youyou: "..."

She cut off the connection and didn't want to watch this pair of lovers.

Zhang Chi also ignored her. Selling his own looks and exchanging for what he wanted was not a big deal.

Wenren Li's Divine Soul was extremely strong, which happened to help him in his cultivation.

Moreover, Wenren Li could also use enchanting techniques, which was quite enjoyable.

Although Tang Ruoling was moist and tender, after spending a long time together, it was inevitably lacking some excitement.

An hour later, Wenren Li changed his clothes and was ready to leave.

Their relationship was special and couldn't be known by others.

Before leaving, Wenren Li gave Zhang Chi a piece of information.

"I heard in the Dragon Transformation Palace that their palace lord wants to deal with you and your Sword Sect. He plans to transfer you to the frontlines under the pretext of conscripting troops to fight against the Water Monster, waiting for an opportunity to harm you."

Of course, I think you shouldn't be afraid, but I still want to remind you."

After saying that, Wenren Li floated out of the window and quickly disappeared into the night.

"This Dragon Transformation Palace is really persistent," Zhang Chi sighed inwardly. He couldn't help but attract trouble wherever he went.

He only wanted to find a place to cultivate peacefully and stay away from worldly conflicts.

"So, I became bad because of the circumstances," Zhang Chi said.

Gu Youyou: "..."

Although it's true that Dragon Transformation Palace started the trouble, who would believe that you became bad because of circumstances?

Gu Youyou was too lazy to comment on Zhang Chi anymore and asked directly, "What should we do next? Steal their spiritual stones?"

Zhang Chi: "..."

Gu Youyou, be sensible. You are a Demon Race Saintess, not a thief!

"I need to plan this carefully. After all, Dragon Transformation Palace has been a powerful force in this land for thousands of years. It's not easy to bring them down," Zhang Chi said.

Gu Youyou: "..."

Wow, all of Zhang Chi's previous calculations were done with so much thought, and now he says he needs to plan carefully...

Gu Youyou was starting to look forward to it.

In the middle of the night, Zhang Chi handed his body over to Gu Youyou and began practicing the Heart Scripture Visualization Method.

During the Foundation Building stage of cultivation, the focus is on stabilizing the foundation, nurturing the essence, and comprehending the Divine Soul. This is a long-term process. The deeper the foundation, the farther one can go in the future.

This is not a race, so Zhang Chi planned to settle down and cultivate properly.

Gu Youyou gave him a deadline of twenty years.

Twenty years to polish the foundation and forge the Divine Soul.

With his Innate Breathing Technique, the foundation he would build in these twenty years would be equivalent to sixty years for others.

Moreover, Zhang Chi's Innate Divine Soul was stronger than that of an average person, and now with the Heart Scripture Visualization Method to refine his mind, once he broke through the Divine Soul realm in the future, as long as the strength was sufficient, she could help Zhang Chi continue to break through the Divine Ability Realm.

The speed of breaking through this realm would not affect the subsequent Dao Integration.

The reason Gu Youyou gave a twenty-year deadline was also because of the rules of the Demon Race.

Saintesses can go into seclusion for more than twenty years, but if it is confirmed that they have encountered difficulties and there is no news for twenty years, the Demon Race will select a new Saintess.

She had to go back and protect her position as Saintess.

She would not let anyone take away what belonged to her!

Twenty years was enough time.

With Zhang Chi's current cultivation speed, there was no need to panic.

The night passed quickly.

Time always flies for cultivators. Zhang Chi had not fully mastered a Heart Scripture, and Gu Youyou's time was up. The sun had already risen high, but Tang Ruoling showed no signs of waking up.

Obviously, Zhang Chi's sleep spell was quite powerful.

Zhang Chi hugged her and Tang Ruoling murmured in her sleep, pushing Zhang Chi's hand away in a daze.

This scene was quite heartwarming.

Now, Zhang Chi no longer needed to control Tang Ruoling with the Monster Seed.

After considering it, Zhang Chi decided to return the Monster Seed to her.

A demon who lost the Monster Seed would have slower cultivation speed and face more difficulties in breaking through.

Now that Tang Ruoling had returned to her senses, Zhang Chi no longer needed to be on guard against her. Returning the Monster Seed to her would also help eliminate any remaining barriers between them.

"Ruoling, wake up. I'll give you a seed," Zhang Chi said.

"No, no, I don't want it... too many..." Tang Ruoling was still dazed and didn't know what Zhang Chi was giving her. She instinctively resisted.

This reaction was truly interesting.

Zhang Chi had originally planned to give her one seed, but he couldn't help but give her a billion seeds.

The original plan was to return to the sect in the morning, but they ended up returning in the afternoon, taking their time.

However, this was not without benefits.

Their relationship had deepened during this trip.

Tang Ruoling, who had been somewhat reserved before, clung to Zhang Chi's embrace on the way home. When they parted, she was reluctant to leave.

There was no trace of her haughtiness left, only her coquettishness remained.

"Let's go back first. In a couple of days, you can hug me as long as you want, as long as you can handle it," Zhang Chi said.

Tang Ruoling blushed instantly at his words.

Her sensitivity had increased a bit, and whenever Zhang Chi teased her, she would become strange.

Now it was even more extreme. Just a few words from Zhang Chi made her unable to resist.

Afraid of revealing herself, she pretended to be shy and hummed, using her magic to leave smoothly.

Zhang Chi couldn't help but comment on her obviously unnatural steps.

What kind of protagonist is she?

In a smut novel, she would be the best character to handle.

Zhang Chi smiled and returned to Sword Sect.

Beishan was also within the protection range of the mountain guarding formation, so Zhang Chi didn't personally escort Tang Ruoling home.

Tang Ruoling walked home alone, feeling extremely happy.

She had truly fallen in love with Zhang Chi now. At first, she was reluctant, but Zhang Chi was just too powerful, making her unable to resist.

Moreover, she had a bit of a liking for the feeling of being conquered. Added to that, Zhang Chi treated her well, saving her from the Water Monster and resolving her troubles.

Thinking that in two days, she would officially become Zhang Chi's Dao companion, Tang Ruoling's steps became even lighter.

When she saw Tang Feng, she greeted him sweetly before returning to her own courtyard.

But when she opened the door, a gaping mouth suddenly descended from the sky...
