Li Beifei and her two sword attendants returned to the Ancient Starry Sky Road under the guidance of Gu Changsheng. However, Bai Yifei, Xuan Mingzi, and the others separated from Li Beifei because they had their own paths to follow. Especially Bai Yifei, whose goal was to compete for the first place on the Ancient Starry Sky Road, naturally needed to hone himself.
When the group returned to the ancient life star on the Ancient Starry Sky Road, Li Beifei was stunned.
"This isn't Venus!"
Li Beifei immediately noticed that the surrounding environment was different from Venus. He had spent more than a year on Venus and had been to many places. Even if he wasn't extremely familiar with it, he could still recognize that the place they were currently in wasn't Venus.
Li Beifei couldn't help but look at Gu Changsheng with a questioning gaze.
"If I left you on Venus, I'm afraid you would never get out in your entire life," Gu Changsheng said disdainfully.
"..." Li Beifei's face darkened. Wasn't this a disguised way of saying that he had bad luck, that he was an unlucky ghost?
"Isn't it? You have to accept your bad luck," Gu Changsheng said.
Li Beifei curled his lips. The old guy didn't have any immortal morality; he was reading his mind again.
"Young Master, Master, look, there are people coming towards us," Liu Yuran's voice rang out.
Li Beifei and Gu Changsheng looked over and saw three people heading towards them with a clear purpose.
"Could these three people be trying to rob us?"
Li Beifei looked at the three people in the distance. They were currently on a small path in a forest. The forest was very dense, and it was obvious that few people came here. The sudden appearance of these three people couldn't help but make him suspicious.
However, even if they were robbers, he wasn't afraid. After all, the old guy was standing next to him. If the other party really came to rob them, hehe, that would be like the old man hanging himself, tired of living.
The three quickly rushed in front of them. They were three men, but their cultivation...
Li Beifei said that he couldn't understand. The aura of these three people gave him a sense of déjà vu, like humans but not quite humans, and their cultivation was even more vaguely unclear.
The three came in front of them, and then they looked at each other, and after a glance at each other, they immediately surrounded the four of them in a triangular formation, as if to prevent them from escaping.
"Hey, this road was opened by us, this tree was planted by us. If you want to pass through here, leave behind the toll!"
One of the men, who was facing Gu Changsheng and the others, suddenly said loudly.
"Young Master, Master, they're here to rob us," Liu Yuran said. For some reason, Li Beifei could hear a hint of excitement in her tone.
When Li Beifei looked at Liu Yuran, he found that this girl was excited, not knowing what she was thinking again.
"Robbery? What do you take us for?"
At this time, the man who had spoken earlier seemed to have been greatly insulted and looked very excited.
"If you're not robbing us, why are you surrounding us? Isn't this clearly not letting us leave?" Li Beifei said.
"What are you talking about? We're doing this just to protect you," the man said.
"Protect us?" Li Beifei laughed. With their powerful lineup, did they need protection?
"Roar!"
Just then, a huge beast in the sky spotted them. The beast swooped down towards them with the force of wind and thunder.
"Not good, Big Brother, it's a Flying Thunder Eagle!" a person next to him exclaimed.
The one called Big Brother was the man facing Gu Changsheng and the four of them. His face changed drastically, and he quickly said, "Form the formation!"
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
As soon as he finished speaking, some mysterious array patterns appeared around the three people's bodies. These array patterns exuded a mysterious aura, forming a triangular golden shield to protect Gu Changsheng and the four of them, while they took out their weapons and prepared to fight the Flying Thunder Eagle in the sky.
The Flying Thunder Eagle's strength wasn't very strong, only at the third level of the Nirvana Realm. Li Beifei didn't even need to take action; one of the two sisters could kill it with a single sword strike. However, the three of them were fully prepared and quickly fought with the Flying Thunder Eagle in the sky.
Li Beifei didn't understand this scene. He said, "Are these three really trying to protect us?"
"This servant does not know," Liu Yanran shook her head blankly.
"This servant also does not know, but it's a pity if it's not a robbery," Liu Yuran said disappointedly.
Li Beifei ignored Liu Yuran and looked at Gu Changsheng. At this time, only the old guy could explain.
But who knew that Gu Changsheng didn't know when he had sat down on a roadside stone and started drinking wine.
"Master, is this the time for you to be in the mood to drink?" Li Beifei looked at him.
"Why wouldn't I be in the mood to drink? Is the sky falling or is the world coming to an end? Besides, even if the sky falls and the world ends, it can't affect my drinking," Gu Changsheng said indifferently.
"..." Li Beifei.
"What's going on with them? Why can't I understand?" Li Beifei pointed to the three people fighting the Flying Thunder Eagle in the sky.
"Hey, no, how could this master have such a stupid disciple like you? Look, they've set up a protective shield for us. Isn't this obviously protecting us?" Gu Changsheng said, hating that he couldn't make something of him.
After hearing this, Li Beifei couldn't help but mutter, "I wonder who forced me to become a disciple in the first place..."
"What did you say?" Gu Changsheng put down the wine pot to his mouth and squinted at Li Beifei.
Li Beifei's body trembled, and he quickly changed the subject, saying, "Master, what is the origin of these three people? Why do I feel like they're not human?"
"They are indeed not human," Gu Changsheng said.
"Not human?" Li Beifei asked in confusion, "If they're not human, then are they demons or ancient clans?"
"Neither," Gu Changsheng shook his head and continued, "These three are Spirit Clan."
"Spirit Clan?" Li Beifei was even more confused. He couldn't be said to be well-read, but when he was studying at the Human Dao Academy, he had also crammed a lot of knowledge, but he had never seen any records of the Spirit Clan.
So Li Beifei expressed his inner doubts.
Gu Changsheng explained, "The Spirit Clan is an extremely rare race in the world, so rare that the number of Immortal Emperors in all the heavens and worlds combined is more than the number of Spirit Clan people."
"Hiss!" Li Beifei gasped. He said in shock, "This Spirit Clan is so rare, then are their talents very, very strong?"
"Hehe, look at the three of them. They are much older than you, but their strength is only equivalent to the first level of the Nirvana Realm. The three of them working together can barely fight a beast at the third level of the Nirvana Realm to a draw. Do you think their talents are strong?" Gu Changsheng asked rhetorically.
"What if they belong to the rare type of Spirit Clan with weak talents?" Li Beifei said stubbornly. If there are geniuses with rare and unparalleled talents, then it is reasonable to have a Spirit Clan with rare and weak talents!
"If there is, then this master's second disciple will be single forever!" Gu Changsheng said.
"Then there probably isn't!" Li Beifei decisively overturned his guess. It is impossible to be single. He didn't understand in his previous life, and only knew to cherish it after losing it. He must not repeat the mistakes of his previous life in this life.
"The reason why the Spirit Clan is so rare is because their race is very special, so special that even the rules of heaven and earth cannot bind them. The lifespan of the Spirit Clan is infinite. As long as they are not killed, they will exist as long as the heavens. Now, there is one Spirit Clan among the three thousand Immortal Emperors in the heavens and worlds, but other than me, no one else knows."
Gu Changsheng said lightly about the special nature of the Spirit Clan.
(Only two updates tonight, sort out the ideas for the follow-up plot.)
