Chapter 19: Monster Appears
Chapter 19: Monster Appears
At this time, in Yanchengduya, there is a place called Yunzhong Inn.
"After sitting in the carriage for a whole day, my waist is about to break. Senior Sister Li, how long will it take for us to reach Qixia Mountain? If I sit in the carriage for a few more days, I might die on the road before I reach Qixia Mountain. Can you bear to let such a lovely junior brother die like this?"
A slightly fat boy said to the woman in white in front of him.
The woman in white looked at the fat boy with a depressed look on his face and said, "Let's rest here tonight and wait for some people."
The fat boy was delighted when he heard this and said, "That's right. This is my first time traveling far away. If I don't appreciate the beautiful scenery along the way, it would be a big loss."
The woman in white said seriously, "Junior Brother Liu, this place is not like Yishui City. It is a transit point for the immortal sects. There are many cultivators here. You must not be careless. You have not yet entered the mountain gate, so you cannot be considered a cultivator. You must be cautious about everything."
The fat boy said with a frustrated look: "Okay then."
After everyone had dinner, they stayed in the inn. The fat boy walked to the bed next to him and saw the fair-skinned boy flipping through an ancient book called Spring and Autumn Annals. He couldn't help but ask, "Feng Xiaonian, you hold this book every day, what do you understand?"
The fair-skinned young man said with a longing look on his face: "This is Wen Zu's book. It contains the most sacred sayings about man and the Tao. If I have the chance one day, I must go to the legendary Sage Mountain and listen carefully to the old master's interpretation of the scriptures."
The fat boy looked disdainful and said, "With your low-grade spiritual roots, you still want to go to Sage Mountain. You'd better stay with me."
The fair-skinned boy looked at the fat boy and said, "Although you have a top-grade spiritual root, it is only a top-grade spiritual root."
The fat boy said unhappily: "Then tell me, what did you learn from this book?"
After hearing this, the fair-skinned young man said with a righteous look, "The sage said, 'A gentleman is firm in poverty, while a villain is licentious in poverty. When the cold winter comes, we know that pine and cypress are the last to wither. If I hear the truth in the morning, I am satisfied to die in the evening!"
The fat boy said speechlessly: "Okay, stop talking so politely. Let me ask you, if someone slaps you, what will you do?"
The young man said: "Convince others with reason, and repay grievances with virtue."
The fat boy asked again: "What if someone slashes you with a knife and kills your family?"
The young man blushed and said, "That won't do. A gentleman should avenge nine generations of hatred. The Spring and Autumn Period is a big one, so we must cut it back."
The fat boy was even more contemptuous: "You said all the good and bad things! I just asked you, do you want to go out for a walk? As you saw just now, this place is much more lively than Yishui City. I guess the girls here are prettier."
The fair-skinned boy said sternly, "No, Senior Sister Li won't let us go out."
The fat boy said angrily: "You are stupid, let's go secretly, Senior Sister Li won't find out."
Feng Xiaonian wanted to say something else but was threatened by the fat man Liu Zhihu: "If you don't go, I won't protect you when you get to Qixia Mountain!"
Feng Xiaonian hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, but I don't have any money."
The fat boy chuckled and said, "That's right, you don't need to spend any money."
Then the two of them sneaked out from the back window. At this time, the street was crowded with people and very noisy. Because immortals often appeared in this city and it was a transit point for immortal sects, there were many restaurants and brothels in the city.
The two of them strolled along the way and came to a restaurant.
"Today, the Immortal Master has come to my Fuxianju. Anyone who drinks well in my Fuxianju tonight can receive the Immortal Master's blessing and keep safe! If you meet someone who is predestined, the Immortal Master will not hesitate to accept you as his disciple."
As soon as these words were spoken, the crowd was in an uproar.
The fat boy immediately became interested when he heard this, and pulled Feng Xiaonian beside him and squeezed into the crowd.
At this time, somewhere in the backyard of the Yunzhong Inn, a group of men in black were quietly approaching a location on the second floor. All of them were masked and their steps were light. It was obvious at a glance that they were all martial artists.
Just as the man in black was about to release smoke into the house, the door suddenly exploded, and then a burly man grabbed the man in black with one hand and jumped down from the upstairs.
At this time, there was another loud bang from upstairs. A woman in white chopped at a nearby man in black with a knife in her waist. A dozen men in black immediately drew their weapons and rushed towards the two men.
The noise in the inn woke up the guests who were staying there. Looking at the chaotic scene in the yard, everyone fled in all directions, fearing that they would be implicated.
"Ah Qi, don't fight any more. Go and protect Junior Brother Liu and the others. Leave these men in black to me."
The woman in white knocked down a man in black and said.
Then the spiritual power of the knife in his hand flashed, and another man in black was killed on the spot.
After a while, there were less than ten men in black standing there. Just as the burly man went up to the second floor, a middle-aged man kicked him out.
"I never thought that a great sect like the Seven Heroes Mountain, with thousands of years of history, would actually come to Daliang to recruit disciples. Tsk, tsk, tsk, it's really embarrassing, don't you think, Fairy Li?"
A middle-aged man in a black cloak flew down from the second floor. The woman in white saw this, her expression changed slightly. This was a cultivator in the four realms of Yuanling, and the lowest was the Dongxuan realm.
"Who are you? As a cultivator in the Dongxuan realm, you are willing to lower your status and take action against someone in the fifth realm of self-cultivation. How impressive!" The woman in white sneered.
The man in black didn't say anything. The burly man next to him frowned when he saw this. Just as he realized something was wrong, he saw the mysterious middle-aged man appeared in front of the woman in white. He threw a punch, and the woman in white flew backwards and hit the pillar in the yard.
"Do you think I'm powerful now? Li Caiyi!" said the man in black, looking at the woman in white who fell to the ground.
The burly man helped the fallen woman in white up, and he was mumbling something. It turned out that the burly man was a mute. But even though he couldn't speak, the woman in white seemed to understand what the burly man meant and said, "Ah, I'm fine."
The burly man turned around and looked at the mysterious man. He was suddenly furious. He mobilized all his spiritual power and waved his hand, and a spear appeared in his hand.
"Ah, don't do that!" It was too late for the woman in white to say that. The burly man had already pointed his gun at the mysterious man. The spear suddenly overflowed with spiritual power and roared like a dragon. He rushed towards the man in black from far away like a divine dragon.
However, just when the spear was about to pierce the man in black, the man in black simply threw a punch, and the spear's power instantly collapsed, and both the man and the spear flew far away and were nailed to the wall.
The man in black was about to catch up and throw another punch, but at this moment, a sword sounded behind him, and a girl in red flew towards the man with a sword.
"A sword cultivator at the fifth level of self-cultivation?" The black-clothed man had a strange expression on his face after seeing the girl. It was very rare to see sword cultivators nowadays. Even at the Sword Cliff in the East Sea Kingdom, there were almost no sword cultivators.
The man in black then quickly attacked the girl in red. This was basic common sense in battle. If one was fighting one against many, and there was a sword cultivator in the opponent's lineup, then the sword cultivator must be eliminated as soon as possible, otherwise he would be exhausted to death by the sword cultivator. Unless he had a higher cultivation level, there would be no exceptions.
