electricity, towards the blood-stained clothes that were rolling."Bang bang bang bang!"Four sound waves crashed into Xue Ran Yi's body with tremendous force, striking a target that was unable to dodge...Just as the water spirit of Jiang Yun was about to be born, above the Northern Mountain Prefecture of the Shanhai Realm, a middle-aged man in black robes stood with a silver unsheathed sword on his back.

Although the man's body emitted no trace of aura, making him appear just like an ordinary person.

But the sky within a radius of at least ten thousand miles around him was clear and cloudless.

The originally dense clouds, the moment he appeared, had already scattered in all directions, revealing such a vast expanse of sky.

The man had a cold and austere countenance, gazing down from his lofty position upon the entire Shan Hai realm. He muttered to himself, “This is the Shan Hai Wilderness.”

According to Wang Lin, this place had just gone through a great calamity. It looked convincing, with most creatures dead from the disaster.

"Of those who still live, and whom I can sense, there are only three great demons. One of them is still asleep!"

"No!"

The man's brow suddenly furrowed, his gaze abruptly shifting towards the direction of the Great Wilderness Realm. "There is such a powerful seal within this realm," he said, "how interesting!"

"However, my mission is only to capture Jiang Yun. Other matters are none of my concern!"

"Fortunately, that Ginger Cloud is alright!"

As he spoke, the man suddenly flipped his wrist, and in his palm appeared a humanoid sculpture about the size of his hand.

This sculpture was not carved from wood or stone, but rather, it stands as a testament to the artistry of snowflakes, each one meticulously assembled to create this breathtaking masterpiece.

Carved there was Ginger Cloud!

The man tossed it casually, and the sculpture flew into the air. After standing still for a moment, it suddenly transformed into a ray of light and shot away.

Watching the statue fly away, the man did not immediately follow.

But instead, he turned his head to look behind him and continued to mutter to himself: "It seems I was overthinking things. The person who had been following me in the shadows has disappeared. They must have left!"

After he finished speaking, he raised his foot and followed the statue at a leisurely pace. The direction he was heading in was precisely Nanshan Prefecture!

This man, naturally, is Yue Qing, the patrol envoy of the Dao God Temple!

When Wang Lin was leaving, the warning he gave Jiang Yun had a time limit: as short as one year, as long as three.

But in fact, Yue Qing only took half a year to reach the Shan Hai Wilderness ahead of schedule.

As for the statue in his hand, it was formed when a sliver of Xue Mu's divine consciousness dissipated that year, and was subsequently retrieved and condensed by Xue Mubeng himself.

But just as it was forming, it was snatched away by the Hall of Gods.

It is precisely because of this statue that the Temple of Dao can know where Jiang Yun is, and thus allows Yue Qing to feel Jiang Yun's current specific location.

Yue Qing's walking speed wasn't fast, but with each step he took, it covered hundreds of thousands of miles. In this way, as he watched, the distance to Nanshan Prefecture and Jiangyun grew closer and closer.

However, just as his figure was about to enter Nanshan Prefecture, he suddenly stopped.

Gazing at the still sea below, Yue Qing said coldly, "What a mere water demon, why block my way!"

A wave surged in the sea, transforming into Hai Changsheng's form. He calmly looked at Yue Qing and said, "I wonder who you are, honorable guest, and why you have come to my Shanhai Realm"

Upon hearing this, Yue Qing's face broke into a sneer. "Interesting! Although your strength in this realm is passable, you are not yet qualified to ask me questions!"

"Today I'm in a good mood, and I don't want to go on a killing spree. Leave quickly, or you'll force my hand!"

In fact, the reason why Yue Qing didn't attack Hai Changsheng wasn't what he said. He knew very well that within this Shan Hai realm, there were currently three powerful demons.

Of course, he wouldn't take the strength of these three great demons to heart.

What truly mattered to him was that these three great demons could potentially become mountain and sea demons in the future, reaching the realm of Taoism's three realms, thus elevating the desolate world of mountain and sea into a Daoist realm!

The Desolate Realm, despite being disregarded by the Dao Realm, is treated with utmost importance by the Dao Temple if there's a possibility for it to ascend to the Dao Realm.

Therefore, even Lian Yueqing would not dare to make a random move in this situation.

His move was equivalent to intervening in the fate of the desolate realm.

If this leads to the Void Realm ultimately failing to become the Dao Realm, then the blame for that would be something he couldn't bear.

However, Hai Changsheng remained unmoved by Yue Qing's emotions and still said impassively, "If you don't tell me why you're here, don't blame me for being rude!"

Yue Qing laughed angrily, "Hahaha, what a rude person! Since you're so ignorant, I won't mind teaching you a lesson!"

Hailing sheng stopped speaking, reaching out a finger. The boundless sea water suddenly churned wildly, and from it surged one after another of water dragons tens of thousands of feet long.

A total of nine colossal water dragons, each with a mighty roar, surrounded Hai Changsheng and charged towards Yue Qing.

Facing the nine water dragons that could nearly shake the heavens and earth, Yue Qing's expression didn't change in the slightest. He merely extended a finger and lightly pointed it towards the nine water dragons.

Although it was only a finger, as it moved through the air it left behind several afterimages, and each afterimage landed perfectly on a water dragon.

As Yue Qing withdrew his fingers, the nine colossal water dragons froze instantly, turning into ice sculptures that hung suspended in mid-air!

Yue Qing said faintly, "What a coincidence, my path is the path of ice, and you, this water demon, are somewhat related to me!"

"Alright, I have no time to waste arguing with you here. Leave at once and don't come back to humiliate yourself further!"

Hai Changsheng reached out his hand again, grasping empty air. The seawater below surged once more.

Meanwhile, he coldly stated: “If you don't make a move, then no matter what you have your eyes on regarding Jiang Yun, it will likely all be for nothing!”

Yue Qing's eyebrows involuntarily furrowed slightly, because Hai Changsheng's words were clearly not directed at him.

Before he could even figure out what was happening, above the sky, the densely packed dark clouds suddenly condensed into a giant hand and slammed down at him.

"Heaven's Way!"

A rare look of surprise appeared on Yue Qing's face!

He wasn't surprised that the heaven-blessed creature turned into a demon, what truly astonished him was the name Jiang Yun spoken by Hai Changsheng!

Two powerful demons attacked themselves at the same time, clearly trying to stop them from catching Jiang Yun!

"A human monk, actually making the two strongest monsters in this realm willingly take him as their protector, is truly rare. I'm becoming more and more interested in this Jiang Yun!"

Despite facing a combined assault from both Heavenly Dao and Haisheng, Yue Qing remained fearless. He once again extended a finger and pointed it at Haisheng.

And the unsheathed sword on his back rose by itself, piercing the sky, transforming into a silver beam and striking the palm formed from the coalescing dark clouds.

"Bang!"

"Click, click, click!"

Several voices almost sounded at the same time. Yue Qing's fingers left no room for Hai Changsheng to dodge, and he could only grit his teeth and take the blow.

And the consequence of this, was that all the seas visible to the eye, were instantly frozen over, becoming blocks of ice.

As for the cloud palm that condensed, it was even more impossible to resist the strike of the silver sword, being ripped apart directly.

However, Yue Qing's figure was also shaken back three steps.

Evidently, the combined attack of the two strongest beings in the Shan Hai realm was still capable of shaking him.

With the silver sword returning to his back, Yue Qing's face was filled with killing intent. "That's it! If any of you dare to act recklessly again, and if you don't know your place, then there will be no need for you to exist!"

After finishing, he simply ignored Hai Changsheng and Tian Dao, continuing his stride, striding towards the direction of Nanshan Prefecture.

At this moment, Hai Changsheng had half his body frozen solid, unable to move. He could only use his eyes to look up at the sky above and ask three words.
