The secret room was silent and the atmosphere was heavy and stifling.
Ji Tianxing frowned and thought for a moment, but couldn't figure out anything. He couldn't guess the identity of the black clothed men at all.
"Jiang Chen, did the black clothed men have any obvious characteristics?
Were they humans or foreign races? Did they mention any factions when they asked you to pass on the message? "
Jiang Chen thought carefully before replying, "Sir, the black clothed men should be humans, but their accents were a bit awkward.
Apart from that, they didn't reveal any information about their identities, nor did they mention any factions. "
Ji Tianxing frowned and muttered to himself, "If it's a human faction, then it's most likely related to the Duanmu family to plot against me like this.
But the black clothed men's accents were awkward, could they be demons pretending to be humans? That's also possible! "
He then asked Jiang Chen a few more questions, and Jiang Chen answered them all carefully and seriously.
But even so, Ji Tianxing still couldn't determine the identity of the black clothed men.
"Forget it, no matter what, saving people is more important!"
Ji Tianxing was anxious and worried, so he didn't think too much and decided to go to Peaceful Mountain first to save people.
He gave Jiang Chen a few words of advice and told him to rest in the Qingfeng Courtyard and recover.
He didn't waste any more time and immediately walked out of the secret room, about to leave the Qingfeng Courtyard.
The beast king and Yan 'er hurriedly followed, their faces full of anxiety and worry as they tried to dissuade him.
"Tianxing, don't be rash! This is obviously the other side's scheme. "
"Senior brother Tianxing, if you hurry to Peaceful Mountain now, the other side will have set up an ambush and trap long ago!"
Ji Tianxing stopped in his tracks and said to the two with a serious expression, "Senior beast king, Yan 'er, I know you're worried for me. How could I not know that this is the other side's scheme?
But my father is in their hands. Even if they've set up traps and ambushes, I still have to go save him! "
The beast king and Yan 'er both understood this and knew that they couldn't stop Ji Tianxing.
Thus, the Beast King solemnly said, "Tianxing, since you've already made up your mind, this old man won't try to persuade you anymore. However, this old man wants to go with you so that you can have a helper."
Ji Tianxing shook his head and rejected, "Senior Beast King, I appreciate your good intentions, but the other party specifically asked me to go to An Ning Mountain alone.
We are in the open while the other party is in the dark. I can't take this risk and put my father in a desperate situation.
Senior Beast King, I'm sorry! "
After saying this, he cupped his hands towards the Beast King and left the Cool Breeze Courtyard as fast as lightning.
The Beast King and Yan 'er stood in the courtyard and watched him fly into the sky. His figure quickly disappeared into the horizon.
"Sigh … I hope everything goes well." The Beast King sighed helplessly.
Yan 'er also showed a look of deep worry, silently praying for Ji Tianxing in her heart.
After a long while, the two of them turned around and returned to the secret room to treat Jiang Chen's injuries.
On the other side, Ji Tianxing flew out of Central Continent City as fast as lightning, rushing towards Yuanyu City with his fastest speed.
Yuanyu City was located in the south of Central Continent City, about a thousand miles away.
With Ji Tianxing's speed, he could reach Yuanyu City in four hours at most.
It was already late at night.
As Ji Tianxing hurried along, he silently estimated that he should be able to reach An Ning Mountain at dawn tomorrow.
… …
Yuanyu City was a main city with a radius of more than a hundred miles.
This majestic and ancient city had a history of more than a thousand years. Nearly a million cultivators and common people lived in the city.
Although many changes had happened in the Central Continent in the past thousand years and experienced countless storms.
But this ancient city had always stood tall in the mountains to the south of Central Continent City.
The city was surrounded by lofty mountains and steep ridges, the terrain was steep and dangerous.
There were many birds and beasts in the mountain range, and the spirit of heaven and earth was abundant. It was not only a paradise for all kinds of monsters, but also a place of adventure for many cultivators.
About two hundred miles to the north of Yuanyu City, there was a mountain more than three thousand meters high called An Ning Mountain.
Not only was this An Ning Mountain the tallest mountain within a radius of a hundred miles, its appearance was extremely unique.
Looking at it from afar, this mountain was like a person's palms clasped together, bowing to the heavens and praying for the world to be peaceful and the common people to be peaceful.
This was how the name An Ning Mountain came about.
However, this mountain that symbolized beauty was destined not to be peaceful today, and even had a bloody calamity.
At the peak of An Ning Mountain, a cave was cut open by someone on the rock wall.
The cave entrance was protected by the energy of a mysterious formation, and light couldn't penetrate it. The cave entrance was pitch black, and it was faintly suffused with strands of black mist.
The passageway within the cave meandered towards the belly of the mountain, and it connected to a vast cave.
The ceiling and walls of the cave were inlaid with moonstones, emitting a gentle brilliance that brought a trace of hazy light to the cave.
At this moment, there were over 20 martial artists occupying the cave.
There were 18 martial artists wearing black clothes and veils, and they carried heavy broadswords and sabers on their backs, guarding the cave's surroundings and the entrance.
Their figures were tall and sturdy, and their entire bodies emitted a fierce killing intent. All of them had a strength at the seventh or eighth level of the Origin Core Stage.
Obviously, these 18 martial artists in black were all elite experts.
Among them, there were three leaders whose strengths had reached the fifth or sixth level of the Heavenly Origin Stage, and they were all experts with profound strength.
However, these three people stood respectfully in the middle of the cave, as if they were waiting for orders, and they didn't have the slightest attitude of an expert.
This was because there were two thrones carved from huge rocks at the innermost side of the cave, and there were two experts who were tall and sturdy like an iron tower and strong like a brown bear sitting on them.
These two experts were over three meters tall, and their bodies were terrifyingly majestic.
Their entire bodies were covered with dense dark purple hair, and their muscles were knotted together. They looked ferocious and ferocious. Obviously, they were from the Devil Clan!
The expert from the Devil Clan who sat on the throne on the left had extraordinarily long arms, and his appearance was like a huge ape.
He had a pair of bell-sized eyes, and his pupils were dark red, as if they were burning with raging blood flames.
He was bare-chested, and a dark apron made of flood dragon skin was wrapped around his waist. His wide feet weren't wearing shoes either.
He only had a wide scarlet cloak draped over his shoulders, revealing his dense hair and rock-like muscles on his chest, showing his unparalleled strength and dominance.
Most importantly, this person's strength had surpassed the Heavenly Origin Stage, and his entire body emitted the unique soul fluctuation of a Soul Tempering Stage powerhouse!
Without a doubt, this was a Soul Tempering Stage Devil Clan expert.
The expert from the Devil Clan who sat on the throne on the right was as sturdy as a brown bear. His entire body was covered with long dark red hair, and he even had a bloody mouth full of fangs.
This person wore a wide purple robe, and on his dark purple neck hung a white bone necklace that was as thick as an arm.
Upon closer inspection, one would notice that the white beads on the necklace were actually made from the skulls of human experts.
Each bead was only the size of a fist, and it was obvious that they were skulls that were shrunk many times.
