Chapter 118 - TianShui Stockade
nobody knew if the southern border sky had always been so hazy in that season, after euidance, two hu Valley
The night of the volcano eruption in FenXiang Valley Inferno Altar, the Heaven and Earth countenance changed, its h it already could not be seen in the vicinity of a hundredValley, a crimson yellow color, extremely abnormal
This degree of phenoe was already conspicuous and now that it happened in the low-profileValley status in the Good Faction cultivators, it attracted even more attention from the world and i what exactly happened in FenXiang Valley?
Just within several days, in the peaceful southern border wildlands, ather, numerous either openly or discreetly power factions, in the open or dark enquiring what had indeed happened
This kind of situation, naturally was not so Valley wanted, on the contrary, because of so Valley sect was extrenant over it
On one hand, FenXiang Valley was cordial to the disciples sent by various powerful sects in the Good Faction like Qing Yun Sect, Tian Yin Teood tea or water, using natural catastrophe as a perfunctory explanation, on the other hand, secret inquiriesValley would never be merciful in their turf, momentarily in the vast expanse of southern border lands with FenXiang Valley as the core, glints of swords and shadows frequently flashed
Just that no matter whether the Good Faction or the Evil Sect, all sensed that under theValley, indistinctly revealed an abnor Valley see shock, the valley disciples al in different parts of the southern border, as for searching for who and what, they avoided and covered up, keeping it a secret
Several days later, the hazy southern border sky becaht bea in the sky frequently, they were all FenXiang Valley outstanding disciples ere pursuing onto so
Ruan to spread
Birth of so into the sky from the volcano eruption, different kinds of rumours, numerous
And even more ridiculous was that some even vividly spread ru Valley and some disciples had betrayed and killed the valleyValley valley master Yun YiLan really did not appear for several days until the ruan to turn into a frenzy and in the days that followed, alar Master Both of the Valley to enquire and FenXiang Valley, did not knohether to laugh or cry, explained that the valley master was in seclusion and was unable to make an appearance
Once the verified neere relayed, Qing Yun Sect and Tian Yin Tereat sects leaders were not simple people, hoould they not detect that thereodd in all of these and therefore secretly ordered their disciples not to hurry back and instead secretly investigate
Often reiterating on the chaos in the world, rogues of all kinds running wild, FenXiang Valley at the sa the Qing Yun battle, they happened to excuse themselves and that led one to make conjectures, hence the action of Ghost Li unintentionally rescuing the nine-tailed celestial fox as incarcerated for three hundred years, triggered the world’s powers covert struggles, the stor of the southern border
Because FenXiang Valley sent out nu, with Ghost Li and Xiao Bai’s cultivated skills, naturally they did not fear these disciples but the thought of the possibility of revealing their tracks and incurring countless troubles, and if the FenXiang Valley powerful figures were to be alerted and coht thereat sect with unfathomable depth of power
Ghost Li, considering the on-hand important matter, decided that it was more important to search for the Black Sha down fro Xiao Bai’s advice, Ghost Li found a secluded village, bought two sets of clothes with money, one ed into it
The far distant southern border land, naturally its custom was different from Central Plains, even the casual clothes wore daily, compared to the robes worn by Central Plains commoners, had their own distinctive style
Because the clothes were bought froe, therefore the coarse handias expected, wearing thereatest difference frons were different, the colours were brightly coloured, the male clothes had dark blue as base, the female’s colours were complicated and colourful, rich and beautiful
Because they had to avoid detection by FenXiang Valley, they were unable to travel by air, although Ghost Li was anxious but after being advised by Xiao Bai who said that since he could wait for ten years, how could it be at the critical moment, he could not even wait for a fewValley pursuing men, most likely when the situation became chaotic, instead by then he would not be able to kno long more he had to wait!
Although Ghost Li was iree hat Xiao Bai said, both of the southern border’s attire, while travelling, theyValley disciples but were not recognized by them, at most because Xiao Hui looked unusual and attracted a few lances
The ht, Ghost Li and Xiao Hui never once revealed the Valley men did not kno they look like and could only questioned suspicious strangers, which instead missed them out
Right now Ghost Li and Xiao Bai were already on an ancient pathway three hundredValley, it was in the open wildlands and not a huo they had walked confidently past a group of FenXiang Valley disciples
The hazy sky, dark cloudsahead, contrasting hiood spirits and peering around while travelling, gazing into the southern border scenery, even though it was a desolated wild ancient path, in her eyes, it seeht
Ghost Li glanced sideways, the monkey Xiao Hui sat on Xiao Bai’s shoulder, coent spiritual animals on earth, Xiao Hui was very close to the nine-tailed-celestial-fox-transformed Xiao Bai, the past few days it had spent more time with Xiao Bai
Watching Xiao Hui and Xiao Bai laughing and playing at tihtful expressions, Ghost Li suddenly recalled, if his old friend Zeng ShuShu fro Yun Sect saw that, most likely he would be very envious!
Xiao Bai earing the co different from the styles of the coainst her unht and heat, revealed even irl was born to fit into these clothes, exuding the southern border wo from head to top
Xiao Bai noticed Ghost Li’s look, turned and s these clothes, does it still look nice?”
Ghost Li smiled faintly, with his character, naturally he would not wish to answer these type of flippant questions so he changed the topic and said, “Seems like you are quite fas, not to mention the others, just this ancient and secluded s Valley vicinity mountains and you can actually find it, unless you came here before?”
Xiao Bai pursed her lips, looked away into the distance, the topography of the ether, endless and infinite, it was the unique characteristic of the southern border, the ancient path ahead, meandered and stretched out ahead, at the sides of the path, either near or far, all had peculiar lofty rock hills Far ahead, thein the far distance, the overcast dark clouds hung around the su with the wind
She sloalked, after a long tihed softly and spoke, “I have not only come here before…”
Ghost Li was surprised, asked, “What happened?”
Xiao Bai let out a long sigh, shook and s to shake off the past, said, “You don’t know right! Our fox spirit clan, the place of our origin is this southern border, I grew up a these inhospitable mountains and rivers”
Ghost Li was astonished, said, “Then why is it for the past one thousand years, the folktales in Central Plains always have your fox spirits presences?”
Xiao Bai replied, “That is because a thousand years ago, I brought my fox spirit clan away from here and headed to the Central Plains, eventually we settled down at the Majestic Fox Mountain located in the southwest”
Ghost Li was greatly surprised, for a h, said, “What, you…”
Xiao Bao looked at hileam flashed in her eyes, as if sentimental, as if the vicissitudes of life, “Didn’t expected it right, it is where your Ghost King Sect headquarter is now situated, so to speak, the name, Majestic Fox Mountain, is most probably because of our fox spirit clan!”
Ghost Li was silent for a long while, quietly said, “Then perhaps your clan and Ghost King Sect…”
Xiao Bai, without waiting for his sentence to complete, immediately shook her head and said, “This you can be assured, our fox spirit clan has been neighbours with Ghost King Sect for several hundred years and always coexisted in harmony, not even that, these several hundred years, there were also a few human and spirits relationshi+ps, so therefore, other than repaying you for rescuingyou are Ghost King Sect disciple, that is also one of the reasons why I a you”
Ghost Li then felt relieved and then thought of sooing back to Majestic Fox Mountain to visit your clan members?”
“Clan members?” Xiao Bai’s face slowly turned downcast, raised her head and looked at the sky, after a while, softly said, “My clan members, were all dead because of me”
Ghost Li was again stunned, Xiao Bai gave a bitter laugh, her expression getting more melancholy but also did not wish to continue on
Ghost Li was quiet for a while, avoided the topic and said, “We have already been walking for three days, how long more to the ‘Seven Mile Cave’ that you said?”
Xiao Bai glanced at hiaze like water swept past his face, said, “Seven Mile Cave is the southern border Miao tribe’s largest inhabitation, according toplace where different tribes cohabitate, called ‘TianShui Stockade’, from there a perilous narrow path to the south leads towards the Miao people’s Seven Mile Cave” Then she gave a soft wry laugh, said, “But I do not know, for the past three hundred years, whether there are any changes in the southern border situation”
Ghost Li silently nodded, subconsciously quickened his steps
