Chapter 171
“I need your help with something,” Xu Ming said slowly, looking at Yuan Yu.
“Master, please tell me. As long as it’s something Yuan Yu can do, I will certainly help,” Yuan Yu nodded. Seeing the serious look on his master’s face, Yuan Yu knew it must be something important.
This was also the first time his master had asked him for help, so Yuan Yu’s expression carried a sense of solemnity.
“I noticed you also seem to have something you want to tell me?” Xu Ming’s eyes fell on a letter in the palm of this golden-bodied toad. On the envelope, it read: “To the Master.”
“Indeed,” Yuan Yu scratched his head. “There’s something I’ve wanted to tell you. I’ve written it all down, and I was just about to burn the letter so you could sense the contents through it.”
“Mm.” Xu Ming nodded. “There’s no need to burn it now. Just tell me directly. But should you go first, or should I?”
“You go ahead, Master. If I can’t help you, then I’d have no right to make any requests,” Yuan Yu said with a smile.
“Alright, I’ll go first then.” Xu Ming clasped his hands behind his back. “Do you know how to set up formations? Or is there anyone in the Baiwa Secret Realm who can?”
Yuan Yu chuckled. “To be honest, I know a thing or two about formations. But may I ask what kind of formation you wish to set up, Master?”
“I want to kill a Golden Core realm flood dragon,” Xu Ming said bluntly.
Yuan Yu froze for a moment.
“In that case,” Yuan Yu said after a pause, “I do have several formations taught to me by a certain great monk back in the day. They are particularly effective against flood dragons and similar creatures. Moreover, if you don’t mind, Master, I could assist you during the fight.”
“Good.” Xu Ming did not refuse. He released a wisp of his divine sense and sent it into Yuan Yu’s mind. This wisp contained the location of Shijia Village. “How long will it take for you to leave the Baiwa Secret Realm and get here?”
Yuan Yu carefully sensed the location. “Two days. I’ll be by your side within two days!”
Xu Ming nodded. “I’ll leave it to you then.”
“Master, there’s no need to be so polite,” Yuan Yu replied.
Xu Ming looked at him. “I’ve finished my matter. Now, you can tell me yours.”
Yuan Yu smiled. “Master, I, along with Coyote, Sparrow, and Tiger, would like to leave the Baiwa Secret Realm. We wish to venture outside,
After the appointment, Xu Ming withdrew his divine sense from the Baiwa Secret Realm. Using a Dao Rain Talisman, he summoned a gentle rain imbued with Dao energy to bless the land.
In the courtyard of the Shijia Village chief’s home, Xu Ming opened his eyes. All he needed to do now was wait for Yuan Yu to arrive.
Meanwhile, beside a small creek, a twisted portal of light opened.
Out stepped a toad, a coyote, a tiger, and a sparrow.
“So this is the outside world?” The sparrow transformed into a young woman and looked around curiously. “Doesn’t seem all that different from our Baiwa Secret Realm, does it?”
The coyote chuckled. “The laws of the greater world are far more complete than those of the Baiwa Secret Realm. In the Baiwa Secret Realm, reaching the Golden Core realm is already the limit. But in this vast world, there are higher realms: Nascent Soul, Jade Purity, Immortal Ascension, and even two legendary stages beyond that.”
The tiger laughed. “Well, what can we do? Our homeland simply doesn’t have enough resources.”
“Everyone,” Yuan Yu the toad spoke, “this is where we part ways. Please don’t forget what the Master told us. Remember, do not commit evil against humans or kill the innocent.”
The sparrow rolled her eyes at Yuan Yu. “You chubby toad, we’re not some bloodthirsty monsters. Why would we go around killing people for no reason? Speaking of which, are you sure you don’t need us to help the Master? An extra hand is an extra edge.”
Yuan Yu shook his head. “The Master is dealing with a wicked flood dragon. With just me assisting him, it should be manageable. Even if we can’t kill it, I can at least ensure the Master’s safety. But if you all come along, I might not be able to protect everyone.”
The sparrow sighed. “Fine, fine. Then we’re off.”
Yuan Yu nodded. “Take care, everyone. Don’t get yourselves killed.”
“Hahaha!” The coyote laughed loudly, waving as he walked away. “The Baiwa Secret Realm was too small. Now that we’re out, we’ll become demon kings in our own right, expanding the Master’s territory!”
