Chapter 22: Butterfly Fire Hall

Ji Nian is really a special being. During the ancient demon war, there were many immortals under the Dragon God, and the ancestor of the Ji family was one of them.

Ji Xiaohen was originally the corpse of the Dafeng royal family of the previous dynasty. The Dafeng dynasty was destroyed in a natural disaster. Unexpected changes occurred in the interim. The royal burial grounds of Dafeng were contaminated with evil spirits.

The numerous bones of the Dafeng royal family buried among them turned into bone demons under the influence of demonic energy. After the bone demons were born, they were ignorant and looked at the inscriptions on the tombstone next to them and called themselves Ji Xiaohen.

After practicing for a hundred years, Ji Xiaohen shed his demon body and was promoted to an immortal. During the ancient demon war, Ji Xiaohen accepted the Dragon God's invitation and joined it to help the Dragon God unify Cangzhou.

Although Ji Xiaohen turned into an immortal in the body of a demon, he was not violent, he was kind and soft-hearted, and did not want to hurt others, so he relied on his own abilities to heal others under the Dragon God's throne.

At the same time, the bones were processed to prevent the outbreak of the plague. While processing the bones on the battlefield, Ji Xiaohen met a mortal woman, fell in love with her, and gave birth to a child.

Just like the Jinyun ancestors, Ji Xiaohen became the source of the Ji family's bloodline, but he did not expand his power like the Jinyun family did, he just claimed a small hilltop.

The Butterfly Fire Hall was born on the top of the hill. Unlike other immortals, Ji Xiaohen had many children. Ji Xiaohen only had one son in his life and did not interfere in his marriage.

Two hundred years later, Ji Xiaohen died and was buried under the Butterfly Fire Hall, where he remains until now.

As the only descendant of the Ji family, Ji Nianzhen has definitely obtained the blood of the immortal.

As for Ji Xunsheng, he was not a bloodline of the Ji family. He was just an abandoned baby picked up by Ji Nianzhen's father. He was raised as an adopted son.

Ji Xiaohen's immortal bloodline is extremely special. Ji Xiaohen turned his corpse into a demon. He is extremely sensitive to the feelings of life and death, and can quickly break through illusions with his senses.

Ji Nianzhen, who inherited the blood of the immortal, also possessed this ability, but when disaster struck, this ability became a shackles.

When Ji Nianzhen was born, he fully understood that the hallucinatory world caused by disaster was not reality, but he had no ability to return to reality.

Ji Niazhen's body is synchronized between hallucination and reality. In reality, she turned into a distorted body, and the same is true in hallucination. However, when reason exists, Ji Niazhen in hallucination can barely maintain a normal image.

The thoughts of the distortable body have been interfering with Ji Ninzhen, causing him to constantly create illusions. Regardless of reality or hallucinations, Ji Ninzhen cannot control the attacks on creatures that are close to him.

Han Ning tried to kill Ji Nianzhen in his hallucination, but it didn't work at all.

Even if Ji Nianzhen died in the hallucination and drank the dragon god's blessing in reality, he could still only maintain his sanity for a short period of time.

It won't take long before they turn into twisted bodies again. After others fail to awaken, they turn into twisted bodies again, which is death.

Ji Nianzhen relied on the immortal blood to maintain his soul and was resurrected in the illusion world.

Han Ning didn't dare to try any more. Who knew how many more times Ji Nian's immortal blood could be used.

In this way, Ji Nianzhen had no choice but to chain himself up in the hallucination to prevent his twisted body from causing chaos in reality.

Baosheng Village, inside Qisheng Hall.

Qiu Guyun was on the hospital bed, and Ren Mengtu activated the Shengdao Immortal Power in his hand. A faint green light flashed, and Qiu Guyun suddenly felt much better.

Then Ren Mengtu left some medicines, told the time to take them, and left.

Soon after, Qiu Gulan came to visit Qiu Guyun with fruits.

"Brother, how are you? Are you feeling better?"

Qiu Guyun coughed twice and said.

"It's much better, but I can't move yet. You said you rescued me?"

"That's Taoist Han from Diehuo Hall."

Qiu Guyun recalled it for a while, felt some impressions, and asked.

"Is it the one we met on the way to Luogu Mountain before?"

"Yes, that's him. It seems that Master Han is asking for something from our mother."

"I see, but I didn't expect that Taoist Master Han would have such strength."

"Mom told me not to tell anyone about Taoist Master Han. If I really need to tell you, I will say that I relied on the Jinyun family's formation to rescue you."

Although Qiu Guyun was a little confused as to why this was the case, he did not ask. After all, he felt that his silly sister could not know the reason. In addition, he felt that what his mother asked him to do must be reasonable, so he did not ask the reason.

.

When Qiu Gulan lost her patience, she walked out and walked around the Baosheng Village.

Qiu Shuiran's guards were hidden in all corners of the Baosheng Village, keeping a close eye on Qiu Gulan, for fear of another accident.

The guard on the roof yawned and was looking at Qiu Gulan picking flowers below, when he suddenly felt someone touching his shoulder.

He thought it was some idle colleague who came to chat with him, but before he could turn around, he felt a breeze and fainted.

Han Ning used Distortion Illusion from behind, slowly dragging the guards down and taking off their uniform black clothes.

Han Ning put on the black clothes and hid the naked guard, then climbed back to the roof and returned to the guard's position.

[Since Qiu Shuiran doesn’t want to come to meet me, then I will go by myself.]

Han Ning couldn't see Qiu Shuiran, and he didn't know where Qiu Shuiran was, but Qiu Gulan, who was Qiu Shuiran's daughter, definitely knew, although she couldn't go up and ask directly.

But Han Ning could still do it by following behind.

As the sky slowly turned dark, Qiu Gulan was gnawing on the apples in Qiu Guyun's fruit basket, feeling a little bored.

"Sister, bring me a storybook next time you come back. You brought a fruit basket when you came here. You ate it all yourself, so just leave one for me, right?"

Qiu Guyun looked at Qiu Gulan with his sad eyes and said.

"Okay, okay, I understand. You are a patient anyway and you can't eat much."

Qiu Gulan swung her legs, obviously not caring. She looked at the scenery outside and lit the oil lamp in the room.

"It's getting dark, then I'm leaving. Just stay by yourself. Goodbye."

Qiu Gulan was obviously bored. When she saw that it was getting dark, she shouted twice outside the door, and several guards drove a carriage and took Qiu Gulan away.

Han Ning followed closely behind, but the carriage was too fast and he couldn't keep up with his body. He relied on the immortal order to strengthen his body.

The carriage drove to a remote place in Leye City and stopped in front of a building. Qiu Gulan got out of the car.

Han Ning was panting from behind, but she didn't dare to get too close for fear of being heard.

He couldn't run down this road, and he had used up half of his immortal power. There wasn't much left at all. Han Ning could only pray that there wouldn't be any fighting scenes later.

Otherwise, with the little immortal power I have left, I will either have my head exploded with twisted illusion, or give it away for free on the spot.

After he calmed down and Han Ning stopped breathing heavily, he cautiously sneaked into the building.

Following the traces of the sound, Han Ning came to the door of Qiu Gulan's room. Through the shadows revealed by the paper window and the oil lamp seal, he could see the outline of Qiu Gulan inside.

Apparently he was changing clothes. Han Ning lay on the roof and stared quietly. He had just looked at other houses and didn't find Qiu Shuiran.

[Is it possible that Qiu Shuiran is not here?]

Just when Han Ning was confused and about to leave, he heard the sound in Qiu Gulan's room.

"Miss, my wife said that you should change your clothes later and go see her."

"Okay, okay, I understand."

When Han Ning heard this, he immediately cheered up, patted his tired face, and continued to stare at the room intently.

After Qiu Gulan changed her clothes and walked out of the room, Han Ning used distorted illusions to penetrate the wall and enter the room.

He lurked in the wall all the way, following Qiu Gulan, but at the same time because he kept activating the distortion hallucination, Han Ning felt some pain in his head, and he didn't know how long he could last.

Along the way, the maid took Qiu Gulan to a kitchen, pushed a brick on the wall, and the wall suddenly creaked.

The wall moved slowly, revealing the secret passages inside. Han Ning sighed inwardly, why did Qiu Shuilan create so many secret passages?

But it turned out to be a secret passage. No wonder the whole house was searched and Qiushui Ran was nowhere to be found.

The maid did not enter the secret passage, but turned around and left after opening the secret passage. Qiu Gulan adjusted her clothes again, feeling a little nervous, and then walked into the secret passage.

Han Ning then used distorted illusion to hide himself in the wall, following Qiu Gulan.

Walking to the end, Qiu Shuiran was sorting out documents. When he heard the noise, he looked up and saw Qiu Gulan. Then he stopped what he was doing and started talking to her.

Han Ning did not dare to get too close to the wall. After all, he caught a glimpse of the Immortal Token on Qiu Shuiran's waist. It was a Thunder Dao Immortal Token.

Han Ning did not dare to bet on whether the other party had investigative capabilities. In addition, since he was using Illusion Distortion and had very little immortal power left, he was really not suitable for fighting.

It's better to hide here and rest for a while, waiting for some of the immortal power to recover.

Looking at Qiu Shuiran, Han Ning was a little surprised. He looked a little too young, judging from the information Xia Ce compiled for him.

Qiu Shuiran is obviously over fifty, but standing with Qiu Gulan, they are like sisters.

Qiu Shuiran's appearance is not too stunning, but her temperament is extremely attractive.

Han Ning seemed to be able to see that calm smile, that calmness that was unfazed by favors and humiliations, that calmness that passed by without a trace.

Han Ning secretly admired in his heart that apart from Jin Yunlan, this was the second time Han Ning had seen someone with such a special temperament.

Jin Yunlan is of immortal blood and has a temperament determined by genes, and this Qiu Shuiran is himself.

Han Ning was too far away and couldn't hear clearly what Qiu Shuiran and Qiu Gulan were talking about, but Han Ning didn't care. After all, his purpose this time was to find a way to obtain Qiu Shuiran's armed forces.

She had no interest in other people's family affairs. The two chatted for a long time, and Qiu Gulan left after half an hour.

After that, Qiu Shuiran continued to sort out the documents. Han Ning saw that Qiu Shuiran had no intention of leaving, so he still lurked. After all, it would be a little while to regain some of his immortal power.

Another hour passed. Han Ning estimated the time and estimated that it was not too late.
