[My two children caught a cold, and they were vomiting and had a fever. I have been busy taking them to the doctor these past two days. I feel exhausted both physically and mentally. I realize how difficult it is to be a parent.]
This is a tribe of gnolls, and the most noble among them is the Frost Gnoll. The one standing at the top is like the tribe's chieftain and king. The frost aura in his body is even stronger, his snow-white mane is fluttering in the wind, and his ice-blue eyes are flashing with a cold light.
"There are humans who killed the people of my Frost Tribe, that is Xuanhuang Town. They slaughtered thousands of people of my Frost Wolf Tribe, this blood feud must be avenged. There is accurate news that the Lord of Xuanhuang Town, Yi Tianxing, has obtained a rare treasure in the treasure land. This time, our tribe should also take action, not only to break through Xuanhuang Town, but also to seize the treasure. Turn all those humans into our blood food."
A cold light flashed in the eyes of the Frost Jackal King, and he sneered decisively.
“Kill! Kill! Kill!!”
The many gnolls present looked at the Frost Jackal King with a fiery gaze. The light in their eyes was extremely fanatical, and it was a look that showed they were willing to obey its orders and die directly.
"Let's go to Xuanhuang Town."
The Frost Jackal King waved his hand and let out a loud shout.
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire army of gnolls began to move towards Xuanhuang Town.
The location of Xuanhuang Town was no secret to the Gnoll Tribe. There were survivors of the previous war leading the way. They swept straight ahead.
Wherever they went, many ferocious beasts sensed the aura emanating from the gnolls and avoided them.
One or two gnolls are not scary. What is scary is when thousands of gnolls gather together. Moreover, this is obviously the scale of a large army, and the deterrent force created is naturally even more terrifying.
In front of a large army, even a ferocious beast with a mind lost would not easily stand in front, unless it was strong enough to not be afraid of the large army.
... ... ... ... ... .
Under Lushan City.
There is a space underground.
Logically speaking, the underground space should be filled with darkness, pitch black, so dark that you can't see your hand in front of you.
But it is different here. In the darkness, there is a fist-sized luminous pearl hanging, which dispels the darkness around and allows people to see that there must be a nest here, a huge snake den.
A giant green python is lurking in this space.
Looking closely, the body of this giant python is no less than several hundred meters long. It is even larger than the yellow giant python I saw before, and it exudes a terrifying aura. Around this green giant python, there are snake eggs. The snake eggs look huge. Even the smallest one is as big as an adult's head. These snake eggs appear densely in this underground space.
Faintly, one could even see a strange glow on the snake eggs. The vitality of heaven and earth was slowly entering the snake eggs. The vitality inside was constantly increasing during this process. The vitality of each one was very strong.
brush!!
A python came in from outside. Compared with the green python, this python was completely not on the same level. It was only thirty or forty meters long. After coming in, it bowed respectfully to the green python and opened its mouth to make a few calls.
Then, the green python let out an angry roar.
A strange sound wave spread out quickly.
Under this sound, I could only see the nearby mountains and forests.
From nowhere, poisonous snakes and pythons began to gather towards the location of Lushan City. The scene of poisonous snakes running through the forest was shocking. If someone was afraid of poisonous snakes, he would probably die of fright on the spot.
No one can imagine how many poisonous snakes and giant pythons there are in the mountains and forests.
These poisonous snakes and giant pythons are all concerned about appearing in Lushan City as quickly as possible.
If Lushan City was not completely empty now, with the people inside either eaten by the giant python or having escaped, and if it were not completely ruined, anyone inside would be scared to death by this horrific scene.
It was literally a sea of poisonous snakes.
The green python felt the snakes gathering outside, and turned its head to look at the snake eggs around it reluctantly. A soft light appeared in its eyes, but then it was replaced by ferocity. It let out a sharp roar, quickly left the underground space, and appeared in Lushan City.
The huge body coiled on a tall restaurant, scanning the surrounding snakes. There were colorful poisonous snakes everywhere, it was simply a sea of snakes. No one could estimate how many poisonous snakes there were here.
Roar!!
The green python roared, and the entire group of snakes immediately began to move, surging in one direction. That direction was the area where Xuanhuang Town was located.
When the green python led the group of snakes away.
In an inconspicuous corner of Lushan City, an old beggar opened his eyes and looked at the snakes disappearing like the ocean. He muttered to himself, "I didn't expect the yellow python to die outside. However, this green python will not give up. I wonder who killed the yellow python."
Then he looked at the empty Lushan City and shook his head, saying, "Forget it. This Lushan City is completely deserted. I will follow these snakes to see what's going on. Let's see if I can find some good seedlings."
The old beggar murmured a few words, picked up a wine gourd, and took two sips from it. The aroma of the wine was very pure and strong.
After taking a few sips, the old beggar walked out drunkenly, staggering behind the group of snakes.
What was strange was that the poisonous snakes were unable to notice that there was a person following them.
... ... ... ...
Not only that, in the dark, countless monsters and ferocious beasts have already begun to move in response to the news.
Many villages built in various locations also began to suffer from the attacks of many monsters, and some villages were even directly breached. A large number of people fell in a pool of blood, with heavy casualties.
A murderous aura began to rise between heaven and earth, covering an area of thousands of miles.
Invisible pressure enveloped the sky like a tide.
It was an atmosphere of impending storm.
Let’s not talk about these.
But it was said that in Xuanhuang Town.
In the backyard, Yi Tianxing was inviting Ye Zhiqiu and Lu Zhishen to eat the food cooked by Lai He. During the banquet, Cai Yan also sat next to Yi Tianxing and responded appropriately. She also became familiar with the two during the banquet.
After three rounds of drinking.
Yi Tianxing put down the chopsticks in his hand, looked at the two people, and said: "Fellow Daoist Ye, monk, I will not hide it from you now. I am afraid that my Xuanhuang Town will face an unprecedented war. One of the opponents is definitely the Scorpion People we have seen before. Moreover, the enemy is definitely not just the Scorpion People. To be honest, I am not sure of winning the danger we are facing. It is possible that the entire Xuanhuang Town will be destroyed in the war."
"This war has nothing to do with you two fellow Taoists. We have experienced life and death together in the Immortal Tomb and walked together all the way. If you two fellow Taoists want to leave, you should not encounter too much danger if you choose to leave within one or two days."
Yi Tianxing said calmly.
Even if the war is coming, it is certain that such a war cannot be launched easily. Even if they want to come, it will take a day or two to prepare, and even if they arrive nearby, they will stop temporarily. No one is a fool, and they naturally know that this war will inevitably attract a lot of attention. If they rush to rescue, they will only end up as pathfinders.
Being a pioneer is not a good thing.
Snapped!!
As soon as Yi Tianxing finished speaking, there was a crisp sound from the table. Monk Hua stood up on the spot and said angrily, "Yi Tianxing, am I a coward in your eyes? How could I, Lu Zhishen, just leave like this when I know my friend is in trouble and will face a powerful enemy? Do you want me to be an unkind and unjust person? They are just foreigners. It's not like I haven't killed them before. At most, I can stay in Xuanhuang Town. If I leave like this, how can I, a monk, meet people in the future?"
His eyes were filled with anger, and he seemed extremely indignant at Yi Tianxing's words.
How could he be the kind of monk who would abandon his friends and escape alone when faced with danger? It would be better to die on the spot than to live like this.
"What the monk said is absolutely right. I, Ye Zhiqiu, cannot do such a thing as abandoning my friends and escaping by myself. What's more, I followed you here because I knew that there would definitely be a big war here. If I were afraid, I would not have followed you before. If you say such things again, we will no longer even be friends." Ye Zhiqiu said with a serious face.
"Don't misunderstand, fellow Taoists. Brother Yi has no intention of humiliating you. It's just that this is a matter of life and death, so I hope you can make your own choice. If you two are willing to stay, then we will naturally welcome you very much. Xuanhuang Town is open to all humans. Anyone who is willing can join and become a member of the town."
Cai Yan smiled and began to help explain.
After hearing Cai Yan's words, the anger on Ye Zhiqiu and the others' faces also dissipated. Before, they had traveled together and had some understanding of Yi Tianxing's character. After what he said, they didn't take it to heart.
"If you two fellow Taoists are willing to stay, I will naturally welcome you. I wonder what you think of my Xuanhuang Town." Yi Tianxing asked with a smile.
"It's a rare paradise for humans. The soldiers are strong and the horses are powerful. Moreover, everyone in the town has cultivated and is tough. They are not afraid of ferocious beasts and foreign races. Moreover, here, whether it is food or shelter, everything is available. In comparison, many villages nowadays cannot be compared with this place. The gap is too big. As long as it can hold on, it will definitely become a holy place for humans in the future."
A strange look flashed in Ye Zhiqiu's eyes, and he said without hesitation.
To be honest, after personally experiencing the atmosphere and customs here, I couldn't help but feel a little amazed by this place.
"Yes, starting from scratch. This is the first time I have seen a monk who can reach this level."
Hua Heshang also agreed.
