The bright colors bloomed around the figure, making it hard to see clearly. The moonlight seemed to be distorted, and when I looked again, I saw a back figure wearing a colorful skirt and flowing hair, walking away in the moonlight.
The soft singing voice floated in the wind, as if it was there and not there: "I leisurely watch the blue sky singing, and sometimes travel the sky blue and the fragrance fills the world; and let the famous mountain take the moon rabbit, and cleverly take the universe to illuminate the Taiqing!"
Looking at the figure that seemed to disappear into the void, Shi Hao laughed in silence and turned away.

Shi Hao entered Kuaiji City, but he was not going to see Li Xiuer.
In this battle, he had done everything he should do. The battle at Wusong River yesterday was what he was most worried about. Now that he saw that the Wusong River could be defended, he felt relieved.
Arriving at a teahouse in the south of the city, he sat there, listening to the stories told by the storyteller while waiting for someone.
This teahouse is quite elegant, with flying eaves on all four corners, brand new vermilion paint, carved railings and painted buildings, and a scented curtain hanging near the balcony, which makes it look graceful. It is a place for wealthy people to stroll and rest.
This whole street sells mostly “elegant items” such as jade, parrots, potted plants, calligraphy and paintings, but even though it is broad daylight, there are not many people on the street.
After all, there was still a war outside Taihu Lake, and no one knew when the war would advance outside the city. Even the wealthy families had no time to care about these elegant matters.
Shi Hao is here, waiting for Xu Xiaoyan.
These days, Xu Xiaoyan has not been idle, helping to connect those white-collar people in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.
The white world has its own circle. Most of the people in this circle are chivalrous and do not need Shi Hao, a "hidden dragon", to do too much work, so he did not care too much.
I just made an appointment with Xiaoyan to meet here today.
Shi Hao looked outside and saw that the sun had already moved past the zenith. According to the agreement, Xiaoyan should have arrived by now.
He waved his hand, and the "Tea Doctor" in the restaurant came to replace the tea leaves and make new tea for him.
Chapter 380: East China Sea Storm: The Nine Star Formation Collapses!
The tea doctor in this building is a graceful woman with a slender waist, her hair combed high, her eyes seductive, and she is wearing a gorgeous but neat long dress.
She walked with lotus steps, her waist slender and like a snake, but her expression was serious, like a well-educated and well-mannered lady from a noble family.
This kind of dignified and steady yet slightly coquettish charm is also quite tempting. People are satisfied just by being served by her, and will not easily develop frivolous thoughts.
But at this moment, Shi Hao had no intention of appreciating her tea art which was as artistic as playing the strings of a musical instrument. Instead, he looked towards the stairs from time to time.
Before I knew it, an hour had passed and Xu Xiaoyan had not arrived yet.
This made him a little restless.
Xiaoyan is not the kind of person who is not punctual.
Shi Hao stood up, holding his sword, and hurried downstairs. He took out an ingot of silver and placed it on the counter, saying, "If a girl comes to see me, tell her that I saw she hasn't arrived yet, so I went to look for her first. Tell her to wait for me here and don't run around."
The shopkeeper said, "Don't worry, sir. I'll remember this."
Shi Hao walked out of the teahouse, looked at the streets on both sides, frowned, and walked forward at a very fast pace.
His upper body did not move, but his steps were very fast. At first glance, it seemed that he was just walking slowly on the street, but in fact his speed was amazing.
Soon, I left the street and headed towards the city gate, but I still didn't see Xiaoyan along the way. I reached the city gate and wondered whether I should go back to the teahouse and continue waiting.
Maybe when he came out to look for her, she went to the teahouse again from another route
After hesitating for a while, there was a sudden commotion outside the city.
Shi Hao's mind moved slightly, and he had an ominous premonition. He misstepped and quickly walked through the city gate. He saw a group of soldiers rushing towards the distance, supporting a Taoist.
Shi Hao's eyes were as fast as lightning, and he found that the Taoist was covered in blood. It turned out to be the "Black and White Chess Saint" Shuangming Taoist from Shuangxia Mountain whom he had met in Xiaotao Mountain.
Shi Hao flew away quickly. The soldiers were shocked when they saw a flash before their eyes and saw another person beside them.
Shi Hao had already supported Taoist Shuangming, only to see that Taoist Shuangming was stabbed in the ribs by a sword, which was at a tricky angle and almost pierced his heart.
Shi Hao asked: "Master, what happened?"
Taoist Shuangming said: "Xiaoyan, Xiaoyan has been kidnapped..." and suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
Shi Hao quickly clicked to help him suppress the injuries in his body, and at the same time he was anxious: "Who did this?"
Taoist Shuang Ming said, "I don't know. There were six people in total, three men and three women. Their skills were strange. They didn't look like... they didn't look like Chinese people." He pointed to the east and said, "They, they went to the sea..."
Shi Hao looked at the soldiers and said in a deep voice: "Quickly send the Taoist priest to the General's Mansion for treatment, and say that he is Shi Chongyun's friend." His figure flashed, as if turning into a white rainbow, flying eastward.
Shi Hao rushed all the way and after crossing a mountain, he actually saw three bodies lying there, all of them were people from the White Way.
Taoist Shuangming himself has the strength of the fifth rank, and these people in the white path are not weak either, but now three of them are dead, and only Taoist Shuangming barely escaped.
Shi Hao circulated his Xuan Qi and continued to move eastward. Through the sweep of Xuan Qi, he found a layer of ice condensed on the ground.
Although the weather is cold, it is afternoon now, so there is naturally no ice on the ground.
Moreover, there was only this straight road, with icy air condensing and gathering without dispersing. This was obviously the remnant left by some kind of martial arts.
As Shi Hao chased after him, he quickly thought, "Who is that person and why did he capture Xiaoyan?"
If the feud was between people from the white world, everyone else would have been killed, and the sword that hit Taoist Shuangming would have been fatal, but it just barely avoided the heart. Xiaoyan was the only one captured, which in itself was a strange thing.
Could it be that those people were coming for Xiaoyan
No matter how the terrain undulates, the condensed ice gas flows in a straight line to the east.
What kind of light-weight martial arts technique could leave such an ice mark
Shi Hao rushed all the way to the coast and found that the ice led to the sea.
No ship could be seen on the sea, only a white mist spreading in the distance.
Shi Hao thought to himself, "Not good!" He turned around and continued running along the coastline.
The sea breeze swirled around his ears, and the air was salty. He ran for about half an hour before he reached a cliff. Standing on the cliff, he lowered his head and called out to the sea below: "Bai Lan!"
The sea dragon tumbled from the bottom of the sea and emerged to the surface.
Shi Hao jumped down...

Lingnan, the Three-Tassel Ghost Cave!
The girl was alone, washing rice and cooking in this dim place.
Although she is the only one here, she can also leave here and live in a town outside.
But for her, this is her home... Even though she is the only one left in this home now.
After returning from the South China Sea, I returned to this peaceful life.
She didn't think there was anything wrong with such tranquility, although sometimes she couldn't help feeling... lonely!
But she is not good at dealing with people, even though her name is known to everyone in the martial arts world.
The entrance to the Sanying Ghost Cave is blocked by a maze.
Inside the Sanying Ghost Cave, flames were burning and a ray of light shone down from above, drawing in the sunlight and making the originally dim place a little brighter.
Those were the ice crystals she had polished two days ago.
A long time ago, this place was called Tianying Immortal Palace. At that time, it was these ice crystals that attracted the sun, making this cave bright during the day.
The tribesmen living here can therefore sense the alternation of the sun and the moon outside.
Later, this place became a dangerous place, and no one came to clean up the ice crystals, so they were gradually covered with dust.
She had only recently found a place where she had gradually cleared away the dust that had accumulated for more than two hundred years, and successfully brought sunlight into the room.
This ray of sunlight just happened to shine into this deserted village.
She washed the rice, went into the kitchen, put the pot on the fire, then went outside and sat quietly on a wooden chair.
That ray of sunlight just happened to fall on her, making her feel a little warmth in this cold and dim place.
For her... this is enough!
There is nothing more to do but sit here.
Wait until the meal is ready, then cook two bowls of side dishes, eat them by yourself, wash yourself, and continue to sit here, quietly waiting for time to pass... Over and over again, endlessly.
Every day is passing, yet every day seems to have never passed, just constantly repeating yesterday.
Although she possesses the enviable "eternal life", her life seems to have entered reincarnation ahead of time.
After sitting for a while, the rice in the pot is almost ready!
She stood up and walked to the kitchen.
He suddenly turned his head, his eyes shining brightly!
The next moment, her figure was like lightning, rapidly flying towards the deeper part of the Sanying Ghost Cave.
Boom! The ground shook, the dome in the sky shook violently, and with a bang, the ice crystals above made a crisp sound. The collapsed earth and rocks covered it layer by layer, and the whole ghost cave quickly became dark.
The girl sensed a powerful evil aura, as if it was coming straight from the east across the void.
Amidst the loud bangs, the space seemed to collapse layer by layer, gray air rushed out, and dust filled the sky.
She went against the gray evil air and continued forward. The wind and sand blew against her petite body. Even with her level of cultivation, her skin felt like it was cut by a knife.
She raised her body and jumped down.
The rolling sandstorm came from nowhere, accompanied by a surge of evil air. Nine star-like points of light were swaying in the evil air.
Clang! One of the light spots broke apart, exploding into a halo.
The girl's expression changed... That was one of the key points of the Nine Stars Locking Veins Formation.
After more than two hundred years of sacrifice and dedication by the Ye family, she is now the only one left in the entire family.
It was not until last month that Shi Hao brought out the "Nine Star Locking Veins Formation" and successfully sealed the monsters underground, allowing this dangerous and terrifying place to return to peace.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang…
The stars exploded one after another, and the ground beneath her feet quickly tore open. There was another earth-shattering explosion, and everything within a hundred miles was shaken.
A woman's angry and resentful roar sounded from deep underground, echoing in the virtual space of collapse and confusion.
With a crackling sound, the sky and the earth shook, and a demonic shadow broke out of the ground.
Bang, bang, bang, bang... The remaining "stars" all collapsed in an instant.
The sky is dark and everything is in panic
Chapter 381: East China Sea Storm: Tianying no longer exists!
Bang! The girl's figure turned into a flash of lightning, and a loud explosion sounded in the air.
The distorted energy was spinning in the air, and the girl was actually shaken back.
There was a demonic shadow swaying faintly behind the young woman who broke out of the ground opposite. The demonic shadow was like a headless dog, and its roar penetrated into the void, making people's scalps numb.
The evil air coming from the east collided with the evil shadow, and boom, the earth wall on the east was quickly broken.
The young woman dragged the demonic shadow and flew rapidly towards the east.
Bang! Wherever she passed, it seemed as if everything was twisting and collapsing.
The entire Sanying Ghost Cave began to collapse.
The girl's eyes flashed with anger. The entire family's two hundred years of hard work were thought to have finally come to an end last month.
However, the evil energy coming from the east was just as the family had recorded, and it once again broke the seal and released the monster.
The earth and rocks collapsed like a rainstorm, unstoppable. The girl chased after the young woman who was running away and rushed out of the broken mountain wall.
Behind her, the mountains collapsed layer by layer like collapsed building blocks, and the smoke and dust spread like mushrooms in the sky, covering the sky and the sun.
Everything has been lost, not only relatives, but also this only remaining "home".
Even though she is the only one left in the family, she has accumulated the history of the entire family, which is a legacy of blood and tears accumulated by each generation of ancestors with their hard work.
But at this moment, it was completely destroyed.
The girl felt her heart was empty, so empty that it seemed as if everything was collapsing along with this family.
She leaped up and turned into a wisp of smoke, chasing after the young woman's back.
Behind that figure, the demonic shadow swayed, and Liao's demonic roar rolled along the ground, causing the surrounding trees, soil and rocks to distort.
Wherever it passes, everything collapses—
