Slowly on the Immortal Path (Spirit Realm) ninety-five join a sect

  Xiao Yao saw Bai Tu suddenly become dispirited, and for a moment couldn't figure out what he had said wrong, so he could only stand by silently watching him drink cup after cup of wine.

  It wasn't until half a moment later that Bai Tu's face finally returned to normal, and he spoke in a low tone: "I know, for someone as weak as us, it's not right to have wild ambitions. Being aware of our limitations is the only way to live longer... But I just can't help myself..." As he said this, the light in Bai Tu's eyes gradually dimmed, becoming dull and lifeless like stagnant water. He let out a self-deprecating laugh before continuing: "Forget it, no need to talk about that unpleasantness. Earlier, didn't you ask me what to pay attention to when the Jade Thunderbolt falls? You must remember, this thunderbolt is extremely unusual - you can't use any magical tools to resist it, or its power will increase exponentially. I personally saw a fellow cultivator use a human-made tool to try and defend against it, but in the end they were struck and turned into charcoal. The only way to survive the Jade Thunderbolt is to rely on your own body."

  Xiao Yao's face was calm as usual, but in her heart, she felt bitter and couldn't speak out. She nodded woodenly and thanked him: "Thank you for reminding me, fellow Taoist. I don't know what other rules there are in this unnamed city, please inform me in detail, I'm new here and don't want to offend any of my fellow practitioners or seniors by not understanding the rules."

  Bai Tu saw Xiao Yao maintaining a cautious and careful demeanor, speaking in a polite and courteous manner without offending anyone. In his heart, he categorized him as the same type as himself, belonging to the timid and weak demon cultivators. Adding that he felt the other party didn't even dare to have thoughts about competing for the Demon Spirit Dan, feeling weaker than himself. Rarely encountering a demon cultivator weaker than himself, he straightened his back, adopting an air of superiority, patted his thin chest and said: "Fellow Daoist doesn't need to be so restrained, there's nothing to fear here. Even if something goes wrong, since we've met before, I'll definitely take care of you."

  Xiao Yao's eyes twitched, and she wondered who had been asked for directions earlier that they were scared to death, how did he suddenly become so confident?

  Next, Bai Tu said: "Since the Taoist friend has no intention of joining the fight for the Youling Dan, there won't be too much trouble. As long as you can get through the Jade Thunder, you don't have to worry about losing your life at all. However, before that, the Taoist friend must join a faction first. In Wuming City, a demon cultivator without a faction is considered an illegal resident and is not allowed to live in Wuming City."

  She knew that things were not so simple, considering this place was a domain of demonic cultivators, and it wasn't easy to take special actions. So she humbly asked: "I don't know how many forces are inside the unnamed city? What requirements do they have for entering their forces?"

  Xiao Yao's serious and obedient appearance made Bai Tu very pleased, and with the help of wine, he couldn't help but introduce himself proudly: "The White Jade City has only four major forces. Each of these four major forces has its own main activity area, and in the city, it is divided into three main roads and one horizontal axis. The East District is dominated by the Xiong Ba Gang, the South District is dominated by the Ju Jing Gang, the West District is dominated by the Wan Du Gang, and the North City District is dominated by the Wan Yan Zi Yan Hong Ge. Each gang has different conditions for joining, depending on the preferences of the gang leader. In my personal opinion, it's best for Daoist friends to join the North District, because the leaders of the other three districts have strange personalities, are prone to mood swings, and only accept strong people. If we weak demons like us go in, we can only be bullied. On the other hand, Kong, the leader of the North District, is just the opposite, treating us weaklings very well, never beating or scolding without reason. Even if we're bullied by members of the other three gangs, he'll stand up for us. It's absolutely the best choice to stay here!"

  This was the second time Xiao Yao heard Bai Tu say: We, the weak. She suddenly felt that this rabbit was very annoying, constantly boasting about Kong Bangzhu, and asked after a moment's thought: "Is Fellow Bai Tu joining the Fragrant Purple Pavilion?"

  "Awesome!" Bai Tu's voice suddenly rose "Sun Bangzhu is the best boss of Wuming City!"

  Nor did he know if it was because of the fruit wine, but his voice was sharp and piercing, making Xiao Yao's head ache, rubbing her temples again and asking:

  "I wonder if this Master Sun is perhaps a famous female... demon?"

  She was already somewhat perplexed when she heard the introduction earlier. The first three forces were all called "Gangs", although they didn't sound good, but at least they had some momentum. But in this northern district, it was named after a brothel and was called a "Pavilion", revealing a feminine atmosphere. Adding to that, this rabbit gentleman became excited like he had been injected with chicken blood when mentioning the leader of the gang, which made it highly likely that the leader was a famous female demon.

  But unexpectedly, Bai Tu Yi shook his head very seriously and said in a serious tone: "With such an extraordinary aura, how could it be a famous female demon? Fellow Taoist, don't make wild guesses. Wait until dawn, dress up properly, and I'll take you to meet Sun Bangzhu."

  Xiao Yao's face turned black, she didn't say she wanted to enter the Ziyun Hong Pavilion, so why did this rabbit help himself make a decision?

  "There's no rush, it can wait for a day or two." She hinted that she wanted to think about it some more.

  Ke Bai Tu didn't say anything, only seriously said: "This matter can't be delayed, it's settled then. Wait for Daoist friends to dress up a bit, and when the sky brightens, we'll go to Piao Yu Gong."

  Xiao Yao felt helpless and thought it was somewhat inappropriate. Just as she wanted to ask why she had to dress up, she saw the partner from earlier calling Bai Tu over.

  As soon as the two of them entered the small house in the back, Xiao Yao shifted her gaze to the other customers in the store. Seeing that the shopkeeper was standing alone behind the counter, she had an idea and felt that Tuzi was a bit unreliable, so she went forward and started chatting with the shopkeeper.

  Only a moment later, she got quite a few messages from the shopkeeper.

  In the four major forces, the leader of the Eastern District's Xiong Ba Gang is said to be the strongest, with rumors that he was originally a monster named Ying Long, who has a violent and brutal nature. As a result, the Eastern District is known for its strong rule, and anyone who wants to join must kill one member from each of the other three districts. The leader of the Southern District's Giant Whale Gang is said to be a strange creature called Kun Peng, which likes to recruit members who are good at swimming or flying, but those who are good at running on land are also allowed to join, although they will be treated slightly differently. As for the Western District's leader, it is said to be a golden-eyed toad that is skilled in using poison, and most of its members are also good at using poisonous substances, so the Western District is often shrouded in toxic fog, which is why the other three districts' demons do not like to set foot there.

  However, when Xiao Yao asked about the leader of the North District, the shopkeeper smiled and dodged the question, "As members of the gang, we shouldn't discuss our leader casually. I think Rabbit should have told you a lot already, didn't he say he would take you to meet the leader? When you see him in person, you'll understand."

  Xiao Yao thought for a moment, and indeed she didn't like any of the three factions in the southeast and west. She might as well go see the leader of the western district faction before making a decision.

  Two hours later, the sky gradually brightened, and before the sun came out, Bai Tu hastily took Xiao Yao to the Floating Palace where Kong Bangzhu was.
