Capítulo 1880: Chapter 1881: Southern Xinjiang Demon Domain

Ye Qingci looked at the proactive Xu Nanzhi and couldn’t help but smile.

“I haven’t asked you yet.”

Xu Nanzhi blinked and affirmed, “Even if you don’t ask, and even if you don’t want to, I would still volunteer to go. I know that Su Chengyu has many benefactors like Sister Ye by his side, and confidantes like Lin An. But both you and Lin An, in these turbulent times, probably can’t easily make moves, right? It’s most suitable for me to handle this task.”

Ye Qingci shook her head and said, “Then you really misunderstood. I indeed cannot go immediately. Like Lin An, there are people who should not openly make any big moves. But this matter in Southern Xinjiang indeed requires someone to go. And…”

“And what?”

Xu Nanzhi looked at Ye Qingci with some hesitation and pressed on. Just then, a steady voice appeared nearby.

“This matter cannot be entirely handled by just you, a Fake Void.”

The sudden voice startled Xu Nanzhi, and even though this place was supposed to be very safe, Xu Nanzhi still reacted somewhat reflexively.

“Don’t be nervous, little child. I’m Su Chengyu’s opportunistic teacher. Although I haven’t taught him much, rest assured I’m definitely on his side.”

Xu Nanzhi turned to scrutinize the suddenly appearing Spiritual Body in front of her. Unable to discern any details of the person, Xu Nanzhi was almost certain that in their prime, they must have been an Earth Immortal, and she respectfully replied immediately.

“Senior, you’re too modest. ChengYu’s character is rather impulsive, and he indeed needs someone like you to guide him.”

Qiu Tianlin chuckled lightly, “This youngster indeed knows how to talk, but I disagree with you on one point. He’s not reckless; at most, he’s impulsive. And I don’t think a bit of youthful enthusiasm and impulsiveness is a bad thing.”

“You’re too kind, senior.”

“Alright, no need for formalities. Let’s get back to the main topic. Ye brought you here, indeed hoping you would go to Southern Xinjiang, but not to handle everything alone. It’s not that we don’t trust you, but you simply can’t do it all.”

Though understanding this was likely just a factual statement, Xu Nanzhi couldn’t help but feel a bit down, but still gathered her spirit to ask,

“What exactly does senior want me to do?”

Qiu Tianlin didn’t respond immediately, instead, he looked at Ye Qingci.

Only then did Ye Qingci continue, “This matter has three origins. The first is the opening of the passage, which is almost certainly related to the Demonic Path. However, the Demonic Path has been rooted in Southern Xinjiang for a hundred years, and based on the intelligence we currently have, it’s simply impossible to uproot them. The second issue is the appearance of the passage. Ms. Feng has already stepped ahead to follow up, though it’s very important, I don’t think we should act rashly without information.”

“So our entry point is that girl Yu Yanshu?”

“Yes. Although there’s no concrete evidence, the sudden connection of these three matters suggests that even if Yu Yanshu is not directly involved, she’s likely inextricably linked to the events. Moreover, half a month ago, I could still pinpoint her exact location.”

Yu Yanshu left in front of Long Xuan and Ye Qingci. Although Ye Qingci didn’t stop her, knowing Su Chengyu well, she was well aware that he would never feel at ease letting her leave alone, hence she had left a Divine Sense in Yu Yanshu’s Sea of Consciousness.

With this Divine Sense, Ye Qingci could not only determine if Yu Yanshu was in danger but also roughly pinpoint her location.

And half a month ago, this Divine Sense completely disappeared from Yu Yanshu’s Sea of Consciousness.

“Is there a possibility that she erased the mark herself?”

Xu Nanzhi boldly speculated.

“I don’t know. That girl’s situation is very special. It’s difficult to determine purely by her Realm what she is capable of doing. But if she indeed erased it herself, it is very likely that she didn’t want others to track her location, wishing to completely hide herself.”

“So, it might not be the worst-case scenario.”

“Or rather, it might be the best-case scenario.”

Ye Qingci said very realistically, “Although we do not yet know why the Demonic Path wants to take her, if she indeed fell into their hands, it would undoubtedly be the worst situation.”

“Finding Yu Yanshu is the entry point, right?”

“Yes, I’ve already contacted people who can help. Some have already set out. After I finish dealing with matters in the Capital City, I will also head over. Before then, I would like you to help me. Or rather, help Su Chengyu gather them together first.”

Xu Nanzhi blinked, surprised, “Are these people all coming to help ChengYu?”

“Not all. Since it involves Yu Yanshu, you should somewhat understand that this matter is related to the Great Catastrophe of Heaven and Earth. Quite a few people are coming because of this. However, Su Chengyu is acquainted with all of them, so…”

Xu Nanzhi quickly understood and then smiled wryly, “There aren’t any Earth Immortals among them, right?”

“No. The only one who went ahead will act alone, like Ms. Feng.”

Hearing this, Xu Nanzhi finally breathed a sigh of relief, “That’s somewhat reassuring.”

Looking at Xu Nanzhi’s reaction, Ye Qingci patted her shoulder, “No need to be so tense. Everyone is someone Su Chengyu trusts. They may have some quirky personalities, but… they’re all good people. And among them, you should know quite a few.”

Xu Nanzhi nodded, having already guessed who some of them might be.

“Alright, Xu Nanzhi just came out of the Demon Suppression Tower, so go rest first. You’ll be setting off in a couple of days, so it’s good to relax your tense nerves. It’s not good to stay in the Fake Void for too long.”

“Thank you, Senior Qiu, for your concern. I…”

“Su Chengyu prepared a room for you a long time ago, and I’ll take you there.”

As Qiu Tianlin had already said this, Xu Nanzhi swallowed back any intent to refuse, seeing Ye Qingci nodding at her to take a rest, so she left.

And shortly after Xu Nanzhi was led away, Qiu Tianlin’s figure reappeared next to Ye Qingci.

“Ye, your arrangement aims to have Xu Nanzhi quickly accepted by ChengYu’s friends, doesn’t it?”

In front of Qiu Tianlin, Ye Qingci did not bother to hide, and nodded.

“Yes, although Xu Nanzhi has already left the Luo Clan, she is still too lacking in confidence. It’s not a good thing. This is a great way for her to integrate into Su Chengyu’s life now. It’s something I can arrange better than Su Chengyu himself. Besides, she is smart. Even if she hasn’t realized it now, she will soon.”

“Girl, you’re getting increasingly concerned about that boy’s affairs. Your father knows how much you care for an outsider?”

Upon hearing this, Ye Qingci’s face instantly turned cold and she seriously said, “First of all, the Su family has never been an outsider to us. Additionally, if you’re not worried, I can tell my father today about your matters at Qilong Court.”
