Chapter 462: Xian Jing and Xian Ya Came Knocking on the Door
When they returned to the human world, it was already late at night.
After sending Lu Zhou and Shangguan Dian off, Lu Sheng was about to return to her room to sleep when she suddenly saw a slender figure walking over.
She frowned slightly and returned to the courtyard. Just as she was about to close the door, a hand suddenly reached in through the gap.
Alarmed, Lu Sheng hurriedly pasted an Invisibility Talisman on herself.
The door was pushed open immediately. Before Lu Sheng could see who it was, she ran into Lu Jiang’s and Lu Xin’s room.
She tapped their sleep acupoints and pasted Invisibility Talismans on them before carrying them to a corner.
The figure strode in and observed his surroundings. When he saw that no one was around, he frowned.
After a while, another red figure entered the courtyard.
“Brother, where’s she?”
It was the siblings, Xian Jing and Xian Ya.
Xian Jing frowned. “She was still here just now. Go and find her in the room.”
Xian Ya walked over. She first pushed open Lu Sheng’s room. When she saw that there was no one inside, she pushed open Lu Ran’s room and entered it. Then, she entered Lu Jiang’s and Lu Xin’s room.
Seeing her approaching, Lu Sheng could not help but hold her breath.
The siblings’ cultivation levels were far above hers. They were not someone she could deal with alone.
She did not know how these two people found their way here, but she was certain that they would not be staying in the village for long.
Xian Ya looked around the bed, but there was no one there.
After scanning her surroundings, she frowned and walked out of the room.
She went to the backyard to check again. When she saw that there was really no one there, she returned to the front courtyard.
“Brother, I didn’t see anyone.”
Xian Jing frowned. She was still here just now. Why did she disappear in the blink of an eye?
Could she have climbed over the wall and escaped?
He said to Xian Ya, “Wait here. I’ll take a look at the backyard.”
“Yes.”
After Xian Ya left, Lu Sheng hurriedly pasted a Soundproof Talisman on the surroundings. Then, she took out the Communications Talisman, bit her finger, and dripped her blood on it.
On the other hand, Lu Zhou, who had just left Liu Yue Village, saw a stir from the Communications Talisman. It was from his daughter, so he quickly connected to it.
“Disciple, what’s wrong?”
“Master, come back quickly! Xian Jing and Xian Ya found me and came here.”
“What?!”
Lu Zhou’s heart jumped. He lifted the curtain and said to Shangguan Dian, “Quick, turn back to Liu Yue Village.”
Shangguan Dian had already heard their conversation and hurriedly turned the carriage around.
“Disciple, hide yourself with the Invisibility Talisman first. Don’t let them find you. I’ll go back now.”
In terms of cultivation, Lu Sheng was definitely unable to compare to Xian Jing and Xian Ya. However, in terms of talisman crafting, Lu Sheng was definitely ranked first.
Hence, as long as she did not face them head-on, Lu Sheng should be able to protect herself.
“Okay!”
Lu Sheng hurriedly cut off the Communication Talisman.
Outside, Xian Jing searched the wall of the backyard, but could not find Lu Sheng. He could not help but frown.
“Brother, how is it?”
Seeing Xian Jing’s return, Xian Ya hurriedly asked.
Xian Jing shook his head.
Some time ago, they returned to Green Peak to find Bailian’s original body and kill him.
Unexpectedly, after they returned, not only did they not see Bailian, but even his original body disappeared.
The siblings suspected that Bailian had definitely been hidden by Chunyu Dong and Lu Zhou in the human world.
That was why they came over.
With his main body around, Bailian would definitely wake up soon.
At that time, what the siblings had done would be made public.
If they were kicked out of the Five Peaks, they would not have the chance to take revenge for their parents.
Hence, Bailian had to die.
Lu Sheng was Lu Zhou’s disciple. She definitely knew where Bailian was.
They had wanted to take action today, but Lu Zhou and Shangguan Dian had been here all along, so they could not do so.
After Lu Zhou and Shangguan Dian left, the duo was about to attack when Lu Sheng disappeared.
“What should we do now?” Xian Ya asked in a low voice.
The first batch of puppets that they had painstakingly refined was swallowed by Qing Yi, and the second batch was cured by Sect Master Kong.
If Bailian did not die, their efforts would have been in vain.
“Let’s wait a while more.”
He did not believe that Lu Sheng would not come back.
“What are you waiting for?”
A cold voice traveled over, and the siblings’ bodies stiffened.
They turned their heads at the same time and saw a young man walk in.
Xian Jing recognized at a glance that this man was the young man who accompanied Lu Sheng back then.
“As the Peak Master of Quiet Peak, Peak Master Xian actually appeared here. If news of this were to spread to the Five Peaks, I wonder how the people of the Five Peaks will react.”
“Who are you?”
Xian Ya narrowed her eyes and asked coldly.
“Who I am is not important. What’s important is that the both of you will be finished soon.”
Chu Sihan stood in front of the two of them and spoke faintly.
He wanted to come back and visit the little girl today to ease his longing for her.
Unexpectedly, he heard the siblings’ voices when he reached the courtyard.
“Since you already know about it, you can stay here today.”
Xian Jing sneered and reached out to attack Chu Sihan’s neck.
Suddenly, a golden light flashed and a trail of blood appeared on the back of Xian Jing’s hand.
He was shocked and hurriedly retracted his hand.
“Brother!”
Xian Ya was shocked and looked out the door.
“Let’s go!”
Xian Jing grabbed Xian Ya’s hand and escaped the Lu family quickly.
Holding a s.h.i.+ning sword, Lu Zhou walked in with a dark face.
Shangguan Dian followed behind him.
“Uncle-Master Lu, Demon King, why are you here?”
Chu Sihan looked at the two of them in surprise.
He was prepared to dodge Xian Jing’s attack just now.
“Where’s Shenger?”
On the other side, Lu Sheng, who had just removed the talismans, carried Lu Jiang and Lu Xin back to the bed before walking out.
“Master, I’m here!”
“Are you alright?”
Chu Sihan strode forward and pulled her along as he asked softly.
“I’m fine. Why is the Lord here too?”
Chu Sihan frowned and said, “I just wanted to come and see you. I didn’t expect to meet Xian Jing and the rest.”
After Lu Zhou kept the sword, he said to Chu Sihan in a deep voice, “Lad, watch the girl first. I’ll go after those two people.”
Shangguan Dian said, “I’ll go with you.”
Lu Zhou nodded slightly. The two of them walked outside and disappeared quickly.
“How did they find us?” Lu Sheng frowned.
Chu Sihan helped her back to her room and said softly, “As long as they want to find you, they will.”
Xian Jing and Xian Ya were not ordinary people to begin with. Moreover, Lu Sheng and the rest lived in Huang Yang Town for a long time. It was easy to find her whereabouts.
“Lord, have you finished your work at Lin Jiang Mansion?”
Lu Sheng sat on the couch and looked up at him.
“I’m mostly done. I can return to Huang Yang Town in a few days.”
“Lord, you always come and go like this. Aren’t you tired?”
Lu Sheng suggested, “Anyway, you can come back anytime. It doesn’t matter how long you stay there.”
Chu Sihan felt that it made sense. However, he still wanted to be by the girl’s side all the time.
“There should be no one to protect you this time, right?”
Outside the door, Xian Ya stood at the door with a cold smile.
Lu Sheng and Chu Sihan forgot about it at the same time and saw Xian Jing walking over.
“If you tell us Bailian’s whereabouts obediently, I can still leave you an intact corpse.”
They did not leave just now but hid in the neighboring courtyard.
They did not expect Lu Zhou and Shangguan Dian to really leave.
“Really?”
Chu Sihan stood up. His eyes gradually turned red, and even his clothes turned red.
He stepped on the Red Spider Lilies and smiled coldly at the siblings.
The Red Spider Lilies on the ground started to grow frantically.
The flower stems wrapped around the siblings frantically. Xian Jing and Xian Ya kept cutting them off, but new Red Spider Lilies kept wrapping around their hands.
“You are actually the son of the King of Hades, Yan Han!”
Xian Jing looked at Chu Sihan in shock.
He did not expect this young man, who looked like a human, to be the son of the King of Hades.
“While my cultivation is lower than yours, their cultivation is not necessarily lower.”
Chu Sihan smiled evilly at them as more Red Spider Lilies entangled the siblings.
Lu Sheng glanced at Chu Sihan and stood up. She threw a few Boundary Talismans and locked the siblings inside.
The Red Spider Lilies on the ground disappeared immediately, and a hint of red flowed out of Chu Sihan’s mouth.
“Lord!”
Lu Sheng hurried forward to support him. “Are you alright?”
“I’m fine. I’ll be fine after resting for a while.”
He had only suffered a backlash when he tried his best to summon the Red Spider Lilies that surpa.s.sed his cultivation level.
Lu Sheng heaved a sigh of relief and said softly, “Then, sit down and regulate your breathing first. It’s my turn to deal with them.”
Chu Sihan nodded slightly and sat cross-legged on the ground. He started to regulate his breathing.
“What’s going on?”
Xian Ya slammed the boundary and stared at Lu Sheng in disbelief.
Xian Jing broke a layer of the boundary and realized that it was still there. He broke another layer and realized that it was still there as well.
Now, even he was panicking.
Lu Sheng ignored the siblings and threw ten more Boundary Talismans at them.
It was almost dawn by the time they broke through the boundary layers.
If not for the fear of blowing up her room, she would have long thrown an Explosive Talisman at them.
She turned back and glanced at Chu Sihan. Then, she took out the Communications Talisman and informed Lu Zhou.
“Disciple, what happened?”
“Master, you’ve been tricked.”
Lu Sheng did not explain further. She only spoke faintly before ending the call.
She had used the Communications Talisman consecutively today, and her blood was already surging. If she spoke another two sentences, she might really vomit blood.
Not long after she cut off the connection, Lu Zhou and Shangguan Dian returned.
The duo was stunned when they saw the siblings trapped outside the hall.
In their imagination, there was no scene of Lu Sheng and Chu Sihan being tortured. Instead, Xian Jing and Xian Ya were breaking the boundary in a pathetic manner.
This scene was quite different from what they had imagined…
“How did you subdue these two fools?”
Lu Zhou was really curious.
Chu Sihan only had a cultivation level of a thousand years. His daughter need not be mentioned.
“Lord did it.”
Lu Sheng explained in a low voice while looking at Chu Sihan, who was still meditating.
“Him?”
Lu Zhou frowned and hurried forward to take his pulse. Then, he heaved a sigh of relief.
“Master, is Lord alright?”
Lu Zhou shook his head. “He should have forcefully summoned something that exceeded his capabilities. This child is too rash.”
Thankfully, he retracted it quickly. Otherwise, it would not be as simple as disordered breathing.
“I’m fine!”
Chu Sihan said, but remained in a meditative state.
“Ah Zhou, how do we deal with these two?”
Shangguan Dian glanced at the two people in the boundary and asked Lu Zhou faintly.
Lu Zhou glanced coldly at the two of them and said lightly, “I’ll bring them back to the Five Peaks.”
As long as they could hold on until the State Minister woke up, the truth would be revealed.
The siblings would also receive the corresponding punishment.
Lu Sheng said, “Master, after you bring them back, you must watch them carefully and not let them come out to scare people again.”
It was alright for her. She was just afraid that other innocent people would be implicated.
Lu Zhou smiled faintly. “Don’t worry. As long as they enter the Ice Room of the Five Peaks, no one can get out, unless…”
“Unless what?” Lu Sheng was curious.
“Unless they burn their lifespans. However, even if they can escape then, you don’t have to be afraid of them.”
Without lifespan, they were no different from a cripple.
Lu Sheng nodded. “Then you can’t let them be locked together. If one of them is willing to sacrifice, I’ll be in trouble.”
“I know what to do.”
He looked at Lu Sheng and said, “Take care of that lad. Your Uncle Demon King and I will return to Five Peaks first. Lan Yi might come over soon. Let him stay there in case these two have a way out.”
Lu Sheng nodded. “Okay!”
“Lend me your whip.”
When Lu Sheng saw this, she hurriedly took out the whip and placed it in Lu Zhou’s hand.
“Go.”
Lu Zhou said lightly. The whip suddenly floated up and entered the boundary, binding the siblings who were still trying to break the boundary.
“Lu Zhou, let go of us. Otherwise, when I get out, I’ll never let you off!”
Xian Ya gritted her teeth and stared at Lu Zhou, her face full of fury.
On the contrary, Xian Jing seemed to be much more obedient. It was unknown if he had given up on struggling or was thinking of other tricks.
“Enough.”
Lu Zhou ignored Xian Ya’s clamor and said to Lu Sheng, “I’ll take the whip away first and return it to you later.”
Lu Sheng nodded slightly.
After Lu Zhou and Shangguan Dian left with Xian Jing and Xian Ya, Lu Sheng closed the door.
She dragged a stool over and guarded Chu Sihan silently for the night.
When she woke up, she realized that she was lying on the couch.
The sun was s.h.i.+ning brightly outside, but Chu Sihan, who was meditating on the ground, had disappeared.
She climbed up and realized that there was a note on the table.
There was a line of words on it. “I’ve returned to Lin Jiang Mansion. I’m safe. Don’t miss me.”
Although there was no signature, Lu Sheng knew who wrote it.
She smiled faintly and placed the note in the drawer before leaving.
Half a month had pa.s.sed and the courtyard was covered in greenery.
Lu Sheng started busying herself again. She invited another group of people to continue digging the ground and asked them to plant the seedlings.
Tomatoes, potatoes, and tabasco peppers only occupied ten mu of land.
There were still ninety mu of land left. The sweet potato vines were still tender and could not be planted yet. However, it seemed like there was still a lot of land left.
Thankfully, she was smart. In the list she gave the King of Hades, she even asked him to buy more seeds of fruits and vegetables for her.
