pare no effort to mobilize all resources to help Xia Mingzhu quickly improve her cultivation.Looking at the two summer pearls, everyone couldn't help but envy the Xia family. How could they have such...Although the Luo family is a family of cultivators, their residence is like a sect, built on a clifftop of a mountain.
From afar, the entire Luo family residence looked like a grand castle, with imposing walls and numerous watchtowers.
However, the most striking thing was a colossal statue towering hundreds of feet high, standing deep within the castle.
The sculpture depicts a middle-aged man with long, flowing hair and handsome features. His eyes are sharp and intense, giving him an air of authority even without anger, inspiring awe in those who behold him.
The man's left hand is carried behind his back, his right hand is extended forward in a loose fist. Beneath his feet, he stands on a swirling cloud of mist, but from within the mist emerges a massive head, resembling that of a dragon.
The castle is surrounded by a chasm that plunges thousands of feet down. If you take a single step off the edge, you will fall into the swamp below, which has existed for tens of thousands of years. Not only is the swamp filled with poisonous gas, but it's also said to be home to terrifying monsters.
Facing the mountain where the Luo family resided was another equally towering peak.
The castle gate stood opposite the mountain, separated by a distance of over a thousand paces. A single black bridge spanned the chasm, serving as the only passage in and out of the Luo family's domain.
Of course, this black bridge is the Reverse Demon Bridge.
At this very moment, a young man of unremarkable appearance and slender build stood at the welcoming area set up by the Luo family at the foot of the cliff opposite their castle. He looked up at the Luo family's castle, his heart filled with admiration.
Although Lao Hei said that the Luo family's own strength wasn't impressive and they relied entirely on ancestral protection, it's not hard to imagine how they managed to build their family into what it is today. The Luo family certainly knows how to manage things well.
No wonder so many cultivators came from all directions to celebrate the birthday of its ancestor.
"Brother, please leave your name and origins here."
A smiling servant from the Luo family, who was in charge of greeting guests, walked forward and interrupted the man's contemplation. He handed him a list.
This man, of course, is Jiang Yun. After learning the art of shapeshifting taught by Xia Zhongxing, he transformed himself into this appearance.
Upon receiving the list, Jiang Yun didn't hesitate for a moment. He picked up a brush and wrote his name, along with his sect – The Asking Dao Sect, Jiang Yun!
Just as he put down his pen, the Luo family servant who had just been smiling moments before suddenly turned grim, and let out a cold snort: “Dao Sect!”
As for the changes in this person's attitude, Jiang Yun wasn't surprised. Though when he left Wen Daozong that day, his master Gu Bulao didn't tell him anything.
But during the six months he spent in Nánxīng City, he had already learned that the Luo family he was sent to this time was the very same alchemy Luo family that Lǎohēi had mentioned.
Of course, he already knew the strained relationship between the Luo family and the Wen Dao sect. But even so, while he could change his appearance, he would never change his origins.
More importantly, he didn't have any good feelings towards the Luo family either!
The mantis that was beheaded by his own hands came from the Luo family. Also, the arrogant and domineering aura of Young Master Luo Lingxiao reminded Jiang Yun of Fang Yu Xuan.
He also knew that his visit to the Luo family for their birthday celebration was a pretext. His true purpose was to find someone from the Yaoshenszong, in order to obtain a cure for his third senior brother.
As soon as the words “Wen Dao Zong” left his mouth, nearly a hundred other cultivators who had come to celebrate his birthday immediately turned their heads to look over.
Among the crowd, there was confusion, astonishment, but mostly sympathy.
Although they didn't know why the Wudao Sect would send someone to celebrate the birthday of the Luo family ancestor, besides admiring the Wudao Sect's courage, they also deeply sympathized with Jiang Yun, the disciple who was sent.
Needless to say, the Luo family would certainly do everything they could to make things difficult for this disciple of the Wen Dao Sect, and there was even a possibility that he would be permanently kept within the Luo family.
Under the gaze of everyone, Jiang Yun nodded calmly and said: "That's right, I am a disciple of the Wudao Sect. I came here this time to celebrate the birthday of the ancestor of the Luo family. Could it be that the Luo family doesn't welcome me"
“Welcome!” sneered Luo Family’s servant, “Guests are always welcome, our Luo Family isn’t that stingy! However, since you’re from the Questioning Dao Sect, this one can’t make decisions. Please wait a moment while I consult with my superiors on how to properly entertain you!”
Excuse me!
Jiang Yun nodded slightly, not caring at all. He turned his head and, with his hands clasped behind his back, continued to examine the Luo family's castle.
Since he's already here, let him be. He also wants to see how the Luo family will treat him. Will they do as Xia Zhongxing said and lift the restrictions on the Reverse Demon Bridge, allowing him to cross that thousand-zhang bridge!
Just then, Bai Ze's voice suddenly rang out in Jiang Yun's mind: "Demon of the Way!"
These four words caused a slight furrow in Ginger Cloud's brow. He recalled Bai Ze mentioning earlier that he had the aura of a spirit-seeking demon, and he had guessed at the time that the other party was referring to his grandfather.
But how did Bai Ze come up with this statement now Could it be that there are also demonic cultivators among the Luo family
As if knowing what Jian Yun was thinking, Bai Ze continued, "I sensed the aura of a demon from the Dao of Smell. Although it was extremely faint, I wouldn't be mistaken. Moreover, this aura seems to be coming from that bridge!"
"Reverse Demon Bridge" Jiang Yun's heart skipped a beat. His eyes narrowed as he stared at the thousand-zhang black bridge in the air. He couldn't understand how such a bridge would be connected to the demon of the Tao.
Bai Ze said again: "I'm not very clear about it, because there are restrictions set by the monster hunters on that bridge. Perhaps when you step onto the bridge, I can figure it out."
Ginger Cloud knew there was a prohibition on the bridge, so he didn't say much and simply nodded silently.
After a while, Luo family servants came before Jiang Yun, smiling but not smiling, and said: "Thank you for waiting."
"It's fine. I wonder how your family plans to entertain me"
Of course, you are welcome to enter the Luo family. However, because of your special status, I have arranged for you to enter last, giving you a special treatment. Wait until all the guests have entered the Luo family before you enter!
Hearing this, Jiang Yun could almost be certain that Xia Zhongxing was right!
The Luo family wants to lift all the restrictions on this Reverse Demon Bridge!
Several members of the Luo family immediately addressed the other cultivators around them, saying: "Honorable guests, please hurry up and step onto the Bridge Against Demons!"
Naturally, everyone understood the Luo family's intentions. Although some people felt sympathy for Jiang Yun, no one spoke up, after all, this was the Luo family's territory.
To sympathize with Jiang Yun is to offend the Luo family!
Under the guidance of Luo family servants, the cultivators first stepped onto a small teleportation formation, appearing at the top of a cliff. Then, led by the servants, they walked across the Inverse Demon Bridge one by one, heading towards the main gate of the Luo family castle.
Ginger Yun stared intently at everyone's movements, wanting to use this opportunity to understand the Reverse Demon Bridge first. But soon he realized that his idea had backfired.
Because those cultivators on it didn't show any abnormalities at all, not even Bai Ze noticed anything.
Finally, everyone entered the Luo family's gate, but none of them continued to walk inside. In fact, more people walked out from within the castle and gathered at the gate.
Obviously, these people were all curious and wanted to see if Jiang Yun could successfully walk through the completely activated Forbidden Bridge, the bridge that reverses monsters against humanity.
