Chapter 589 Don't Lean on a Railing if You Have Nothing, Su Shouzhuo, a Jianghu Ranger
Mo Wanyun had a cold expression on his face, holding his hands in front of him. He had an indescribable temperament and oppressive majesty, which suppressed the old woman's aura. "It makes sense for me when to practice and when to retreat.
The elder is already old, why do you still worry so much?"
"I don't want to care about it, but what about the other elders in the clan?" The old woman sighed softly and looked at the pastoral village in front of the small courtyard. "There are few pure lands in human territory. Is this land like the Great Wilderness really free from the world?"
When the old woman said this, she pointed the skinny finger of the pestle stick at the ancient well in the small courtyard. The water curtain stirred and condensed into a misty mirror.
In the mirror world, a young man in white can be vaguely seen riding a horse in the misty rain.
The beautiful shadow floats in the air.
The girl reached out to hold it, but the water curtain slipped from her fingertips and fell into the well again.
Clear water splashes down the colorful clothes.
The girl was stunned for a moment.
Nothing like it was just now.
"The Holy Court also has the art of water mirror, so why haven't you learned it?"
"Otherwise, the person you miss day and night can be right at your fingertips at any time."
The girl bit her lips lightly and said nothing in defense.
How does the world know her thoughts?
Thinking of someone has long been hidden in your soft heart, day and night.
Although you can see a part of the world with the water mirror technique, you can reach the depth of love.
Who can explain?
Mo Wanyun turned around, took the white jade sword and put it on his waist, then ran out of the small courtyard and fled far away to find the person he loved.
But behind him, the old woman poured a basin of cold water down: "It's okay for you to go find him, but do you know that the young practitioners of the nine branches of the Fox clan are also waiting for you to leave Qingyuan, and for the young people from the human race to enter Qingyuan."
Mo Wanyun's expression was cold: "What do the practitioners of the nine branches of the Fox clan want to do, what does it have to do with me? I am me, they are them." ωωw..net
"But they all regard you as the Ninth Princess and regard you as the successor of the next White Emperor."
The old woman's voice regained its dignity.
"With the White Emperor Sword in your hand, you must follow the rules of the Fox Clan. As a woman, you naturally have to accept the pursuit of young men from the Nine Branches. This is a blood inheritance.
You have the right to choose, and you have the right to refuse them, but don't forget that it's not easy for a boy from the Gu family to travel a hundred thousand miles to reach the desert. If you break the rules, they don't have to follow them, and the consequences are hard to predict."
"They dare!"
Mo Wanyun raised his eyebrows.
"If Gu Yusheng is even slightly injured, I will seek back a thousand or ten thousand times the interest."
The old woman looked calm.
"Things in the world are not that simple. You underestimated the determination of the younger generation of the Nine Branches."
"But they also underestimated me, and they even underestimated Gu Yusheng."
Mo Wanyun's eyes became even colder.
"Great Elder, the Fox Clan has been closed to the mountains for many years, and the nine branches of the Fox Clan have finally recovered some of their strength. You should advise them to go back and rest early, so as not to get injured and die, and your old man will be heartbroken again. After decades,
I'm afraid you will find it hard to accept that hundreds of years of hard work have been lost in one day."
The old woman straightened her staff and said: "The human race does have some geniuses. For thousands of years, Master has held up the sky for the human race, but at that time, the Fox Clan, the extremely wise Bai Emperor, once led the nine branches to sweep across the sky and the world.
The geniuses of the Fox clan among the nine branches may not be worse than him.
On the second day of February, the White Emperor Sacrifice Ceremony will be held in Jiuwei Pavilion. I hope that the human race boys will have the opportunity to come and participate."
While the old woman was talking, she had already walked towards the path.
Obviously.
Mo Wanyun's words just now still stimulated the old woman.
night.
Quiet as water.
In a large courtyard near the mountain, seven people, an old woman and an old man, were gathered around a fire pit. Many furs, dry goods, etc. were hung on the walls.
The pot on the firepit was boiling green medicinal liquid, and there was a strange smell in the air.
Except for the old woman, the other six old men were secretly breathing and savoring the smell of medicine emanating from the pot.
When the medicinal smell in the room gradually faded away, the six old men woke up one by one, their immersed expressions not completely gone.
An old man wearing a wolf coat had a cunning look in his eyes, "The great elder asked me to wait. Isn't it just to discuss the sacrificial ceremony?"
"The White Emperor Sacrifice Ceremony is a major event for the nine branches of the Fox Clan. It should indeed be discussed. However, I called you six here to confirm something. How long can the seal deep in Qingyuan Mountain last?"
After a brief silence, an old man from the Fox tribe replied: "It can last for a month at most."
"What? That's around the time of the Baidi Sacrifice Ceremony!"
Another old man from the Fox tribe had some disbelief on his face, and took the opportunity to complain: "If something hadn't happened to the human race that year, and the sword-carrying man Qin Jiu had used his sword, he would have killed that chi demon long ago!"
"Alright, Old Seven, how can we borrow the work of defending demons from other people's hands?"
The old man wearing a wolf coat unbuttoned the two buttons of his coat and sat slumped by the fire pit. The cold air was coming from his body. He looked around with a solemn expression.
"I came from outside the mountains. There is an undercurrent of demonic energy in many places in the wilderness. The ancient demons sealed in other territories have also been active recently. At the ancient demon pass in Tianyao City, an ancient demon broke through the seal and wreaked havoc in the wilderness. It seems that
In this sacrificial ceremony, a demon-slaying warrior must be selected from the nine branches to help the guarding elders re-seal the chi demon."
While the old man was speaking, he turned his palm and took out a wooden box. Under the curious eyes of others, he carefully opened it and saw that inside the wooden box was a piece of the ancient demon's finger.
"Is this the devil's finger?!"
The old woman's expression changed slightly, and a ball of dark fire ignited in her palm, burning into ashes along with the wooden box.
"Fifth Elder, what's going on? Isn't that demon sealed deep in the Moon Worshiping Mountain?"
"Great Elder, elders, this is what I want to say."
The old man in the wolf coat had some mood swings.
"One month ago, a shocking change occurred in Baiyue Mountain. One of Yao Mo's hands was cut off by someone unknown. In the turbulent flow of the sky, the stumps were scattered all over the wilderness. Half of Yao Mo's arm was smashed into the City of Ten Thousand Demons.
Thousands of cultivators from the demon clan joined forces and were trapped by the large formation of Ten Thousand Demons City to wipe it out. In that battle, the number of casualties was no less than ten thousand, and even an elder from the Imperial Palace died.
The human race is even worse. Another arm fell into the Xianhuzhou Haoqi Alliance. In fear, they were enslaved by the demon's cruel thoughts and killed each other. I'm afraid the shadow has not dissipated to this day. Human beings are so wise and deceitful. That day
After that, even old friends who had been friends for many years began to distrust each other and thought the other was a slave of the devil."
The elders of the Fox clan looked at each other.
Their hearts are far less peaceful than they appear on the surface. Could that little finger just now have affected someone? If so, the same tragedy will happen to the Fox clan.
The moment suspicion arises, a crisis of trust has already appeared.
At this time, the great elder and old woman's determination was revealed. She waved the crutch in her hand, and a crow's eye on the crutch opened, letting her eyes scan everyone present.
"Let's stop having thoughts that we shouldn't have."
The old woman put down her crutch.
"Fifth Elder, have you found out who did it?"
The old man shook his head.
"In those days, there were many demon cultivators near Moon Worship Mountain... I heard that they all followed the orders of Fu Cang, the son of Lord Fulong, and hunted human intruders."
"The Great Wilderness Monster Clan is also busy competing for the position of Saint King."
"Human interloper?"
"The person who inherits the Holy Court's Zhanlong Mountain?"
"It's him." The old woman's eyes were dark, "Tell the young practitioners of the Nine Branches that their challenger is here."
