Chapter 146 Things are not simple After all, looking at the entire world of immortal cultivation, who doesn’t know about this person’s situation? It is a definite and flammable and explosive Tianlei Zibenlei! An old-fashioned deity who could be buried at any time. No matter where he goes, people just keep their distance from him. Logically speaking, when the Ice Domain Sect was in trouble, other sects would have sent people to provide support. However, considering this man's age, their sects would definitely not send him. Yet, he was the most proactive one and arrived almost the moment the news spread. Hey…… Although he arrived early, he was beaten in public by Zhou Xiaoyou's mother after he arrived, and then he fell into a deep sleep. When he woke up later, he was unable to help much. Well, anyway, it doesn't matter whether he can help or not. What matters is that since others have this intention, then he, as the host, should not treat the guests unfairly. "You have seen my condition. It is stable. At least I will not die in the near future. Sect Leader Ye does not need to worry." Sheng Yuan finally came back to his senses from gazing into the distance. Instead of answering Master Ye's question directly, he answered his underlying question directly.
"Ah?" After all, the time he had spent with this person was short and he didn't know him well. At this moment, Sect Leader Ye was stunned by his straightforward words, and then his old face gradually turned red. "Winter City is close to the Snowy Forest and should be the most dangerous place. But why are the guards sent there the weakest and the fewest in number?" Seeing that Sect Leader Ye was still silent, Sheng Yuan took the opportunity to ask about the confusion in his heart. "Although it is close to the Snow-Covered Forest, the people who live there are special. They are mortals who have lived nearby since ancient times. Before we cultivators were born in this world, they were able to condense their own strength and use their mortal bodies to resist the monsters that appear in the Snow-Covered Forest all year round. It can be seen that they are also capable. After all, they are mortals. There has been no special precedent of monsters invading mortal towns before. Even if there were, it was only one or two individuals. The disciples sent by our sect to guard the town are enough to deal with it." At this point, Sect Leader Ye paused. In fact, he understood that Sheng Yuan had some resentment in his heart when he asked such a question at this time. Monks cultivate immortality to seize opportunities provided by Heaven. They are born with the responsibility to protect the mortals in this world. But now, it was because he had not fulfilled his responsibility, and the mortal town was in trouble, and it was because of his incompetence as the leader. "We will take this issue seriously and this incident will never happen again." Sect Leader Ye raised his head, looked serious, and made a promise to Sheng Yuan. "It's them, not me, who should hear this." At this moment, I was standing on a towering mountain that reached the clouds. Looking up into the distance, I saw the direction of Winterfell. It was nightfall, and the evening breeze was blowing gently. The town belonging to the mortals actually covered a large area. Dongdong City was the most populous of the nearby mortal cities. At nightfall, candles were lit in every household, and the whole city was dotted with stars. The fox demon wanted to resurrect his partner, so he used monks, monster beasts, living sacrifices, blood formations, and every other means to try to change fate. The monsters formed a group and wanted to attack the mortal towns. In the final analysis, the monsters were desperate and had no cultivators to eat, so they could only settle for the second best and change their target to mortals who had no spiritual power. They eat human flesh and blood, transform it into their own flesh and blood, and then use it to feed the blood formation set up by the fox demon specifically for monsters. After interrogating the fox demon, the answers he got seemed to make sense, but Sheng Yuan still felt that something was wrong. He could not guarantee that the Taoist sect was a pool of clear water and would never have any turbidity. There were many sects that were proficient in formations, but no one would pass on such unique skills to a fox demon of unknown origin. The exception is Chi Xiao. She was raised in a Taoist sect by the human race since she was a child. Although she is a demon, her heart belongs to the human race and she is absolutely reliable. Although there is a possibility that some sects will secretly keep forbidden techniques and preserve and continue to use these harmful formations, and then pass them on to evil-minded demons.
After all, what benefit can the Taoist sect get from doing something that harms others and does not benefit itself? The most likely possibility is that these two fox demons did not learn these formations in the Taoist sect, but in the Demon sect, under the command of the demon clan. Another gust of wind came, blowing away the clouds, revealing the bright moon hanging in the sky. As the night deepened, most of the lights in the city had gone out. Then, Sheng Yuan's eyes dimmed. If the demons really had something to do with this matter, then I'm afraid... they are playing a big game. …… “It’s really comparable to the fairy fruit!” Unlike Sheng Yuan who was worried, Zhou Ling and her daughter had decided on their next destination just because they bought some amazing fruits on the way. The old lady who was setting up the stall couldn't help but smile when she saw that Zhou Ling and her daughter seemed to be knowledgeable about the goods. "You see, I told you so. This good fruit should of course be sold to knowledgeable people. Otherwise, people who don't know the business will think that the fruit is not fresh and will not even taste it and will not want to buy it." The stall has been set up for a whole day under the scorching sun. These fresh and juicy fruits are not easy to preserve, especially since this place is far away from the State of Dongqi. The fruits shipped from thousands of miles away, of course, do not look fresh. However, this little bit of staleness does not affect the wonderful aroma of the Peach Fairy Fruit. However, this kind of peach is already expensive, and it is difficult to transport, so it is even more expensive when it comes to their area. The fruit is not fresh and the price is expensive, so many people don't even look at it. Only occasionally, those who recognize this kind of fruit will be willing to buy it. Finally she met someone who knew the value of her goods and was able to sell some of them. The old lady was very happy from beginning to end. In fact, Zhou Ling and Zhou Li were not the connoisseurs she claimed. It was the first time for them to hear of this kind of fruit. However, as cultivators, their sense of smell was more sensitive than that of ordinary people. It was no exaggeration to say that the fragrance of this fruit could be smelled from ten miles away. They were simply attracted by the aroma of the fruit. When I go out, I carry money with me, and most of it is small change, which is convenient to spend. I don’t feel bad about buying some expensive fruits. She just bit a few more, and found that each fruit was wilted and stale, which made her feel very uncomfortable. "Auntie, where do you think this peach fairy fruit comes from?" After asking about the place of origin, Zhou Ling and her mother looked at each other and decided to go there. She would save more fruits and bring them back for her master and other elders to eat. It would also be an act of filial piety for her as a disciple and junior. Although she had only been practicing Taoism for a short time, her mother was a greedy person. She had found ways to get her hands on almost all the fruits that contained spiritual energy in the Taoism world and had tasted them. She had come to the conclusion that they had too much spiritual energy but not enough flavor. (End of this chapter)
