The old man leaned on his walking stick, looking very angry. He asked Lin Tian what had happened. This Huai Tree Forest, which was very important to their village, was actually destroyed to such an extent. He looked at the collapsed Huai Tree Forest and the ruined land around him. He was so angry that he repeatedly pounded the ground with his walking stick. It was hard to imagine how the person who did this could destroy this place to such an extent. It was as if they had encountered a huge natural disaster.
Then, in the next moment, his gaze fell on Lin Tian. Suddenly, he saw the blood-stained Snow Wolf beside Lin Tian. For a moment, his expression changed. "This is?!" Looking at the blood-stained Snow Wolf, his face was full of shock.
At the same time, in this place, the other angry villagers who had walked out of the village also saw the Snow Wolf beside Lin Tian. Every one of them was moved.
"Snow Wolf? It, it is?! "
"Why … why does it look so similar to the Snow Wolf that was passed down in the village?!"
"This …"
Looking at the blood-stained Snow Wolf, many of the villagers turned pale.
This village had received countless kindness and grace from the witch, and the entire village had undergone great changes. That year, after the witch passed away, the Snow Wolf that was built and erected a tombstone for the witch had been painted by an old artist in the village. The portrait had been preserved and passed down until now. Everyone in the village had seen that portrait. After so many years, the portrait was not as clear as before, but they could still see that the Snow Wolf in the portrait was exactly the same as the Snow Wolf beside Lin Tian.
"It … it's really it?! But … how is that possible? That was so many years ago. How could it be alive now?! "
All the villagers were shocked.
"What … what happened to it? How … how did it get hurt so badly? Were you bitten by other beasts?! "
Someone looked at the Snow Wolf, his voice trembling slightly. The Snow Wolf's injuries were too severe. His entire body was covered in blood, and in many places, even his bones and internal organs could be seen. To these ordinary villagers, such injuries were truly horrifying. At the same time, when they saw that this Snow Wolf was exactly the same as the Snow Wolf that had erected the Witch's tomb and monument, they felt a sense of familiarity even though they were not sure if this was really the same Snow Wolf that had erected the Witch's tomb and monument. Now, seeing that the Snow Wolf was so severely injured and on the verge of death, they could not help but feel a little distressed.
Snow Wolf was severely injured, and his life force was constantly weakening. He didn't move at all, only staring at the witch's tomb without blinking.
That place seemed to be all there was to it.
Lin Tian looked at the Snow Wolf, not knowing what to say.
He knew that this Snow Wolf had been saved by the Witch and had always remembered the Witch's kindness. He wanted to repay the Witch's kindness. When the Witch passed away, he tearfully built her tomb and erected a monument for her. The Witch had lamented that she wanted to see the scenery when the Thousand Illusion Sacred Orchid bloomed. He had been guarding the Thousand Illusion Sacred Orchid's sapling, waiting for it to bloom. Then, he had risked his life to bring it here.
Even now, he was severely injured and on the verge of death. The Thousand Illusion Sacred Orchid could heal him, but for the sake of gratitude, he would rather die so that the scenery of the Thousand Illusion Sacred Orchid would last longer in front of the Witch's tomb. He had rejected his kindness to help him refine the Thousand Illusion Sacred Orchid. What else could he say? He could only be deeply moved by the Snow Wolf's actions.
"Da ba."
Suddenly, footsteps sounded. Outside the Huai Tree Forest, the three True Immortals of the Manwe dynasty and the two independent True Immortals began to approach.
The five True Immortals' gazes fell on the Thousand Illusion Sacred Orchid in front of the Witch's tomb.
Their pace was not fast. The three True Immortals of the Manwe dynasty formed a camp, while the two independent True Immortals formed another camp. There were three camps in total. As they approached the Thousand Illusion Sacred Orchid, they were vigilant against each other.
Lin Tian tilted his head and saw the five approaching. Naturally, he knew what they wanted to do. They all wanted to seize the Thousand Illusion Sacred Orchid.
"Old man, take the other villagers back to the village." He looked at the three True Immortals of the Manwe dynasty and the two independent True Immortals and said to the old man with the crutch, "I'll explain the destruction of this place later."
He took one last look at the severely injured Snow Wolf and stopped using the Nirvana of the Sun. He stood up and looked at the three True Immortals of the Manwe dynasty and the two independent True Immortals who were approaching from outside the Huai Tree Forest.
These five people wanted to seize the Thousand Illusion Sacred Orchid at this time. He would not let them succeed.
"You want to fight?"
Wuxing Crocodile asked. He naturally knew what Lin Tian wanted to do. He wanted to stop the five True Immortals from seizing the Thousand Illusion Sacred Orchid.
Lin Tian nodded. "You and the little guy stay here and protect this place. Protect the severely injured guy, the Thousand Illusion Sacred Orchid, the witch's tomb, and the villagers here."
That year, the witch silently dedicated the rest of her life to the village. She gave everything to the village just to repay the kindness of the old woman in the village. This Snow Wolf had guarded the Thousand Illusion Sacred Orchid for tens of thousands of years. He risked his life to bring the Thousand Illusion Sacred Orchid to the witch's tomb. He would rather die than refine the Thousand Illusion Sacred Orchid to heal himself. He wanted the scenery of the Thousand Illusion Sacred Orchid to last longer in front of the witch's tomb. It was all for the sake of the witch who saved him.
No matter if it was the former or the latter, they all valued the word "kindness" very much.
And no matter if it was the former or the latter, what they did for the word "kindness" moved him.
Especially this Snow Wolf. What the other party did for the witch even made him feel a little suffocated in his chest.
At this moment, whether it was for the witch's "desire to see the scenery of the Thousand Illusion Sacred Orchid blooming" or for the Snow Wolf's wish of "willing to die so that the scenery of the Thousand Illusion Sacred Orchid blooming can last longer in front of the witch's tomb", he had to fight. He would not let anyone touch the Thousand Illusion Sacred Orchid in front of the witch's tomb at this time.
Moreover, not long ago, he, Wuxing Crocodile, and Little Taichu were all in this place because of the sound left behind by the witch when she played the zither. It could be said that the witch had given them a favor across the river of time. Even if it was only for this favor across time, he had a reason to protect everything related to the witch.
"Don't worry! Lord Crocodile and the little guy will definitely protect this place well! "
Wuxing Crocodile said solemnly.
At this time, Lin Tian wanted to stop five True Immortals at the same time with his own strength. It did not ask Lin Tian if he could stop them because Lin Tian had already said before that with the help of the Ultimate Elixir and some other methods, he could now fight with a True Immortal powerhouse.
And it was even more clear that even if Lin Tian did not have the ability to fight with a True Immortal powerhouse now, he would still make a move at this time because he knew Lin Tian very well. He knew very well that Lin Tian was a person of passion. After knowing the relationship between the witch, the village, and this Snow Wolf, and knowing what the Snow Wolf had done for the witch, it was impossible for him to stand by and do nothing.
"Yiya! Don't worry! "
Little Taichu made a sound with a serious expression, expressing the same meaning as Wuxing Crocodile.
Such a scene made the old man with the crutch change his expression immediately.
"They, they … are talking?"
He looked at Wuxing Crocodile in shock.
Before this, he had seen Wuxing Crocodile and Little Taichu following Lin Tian and thought that Wuxing Crocodile and Little Taichu were Lin Tian's pets. He did not expect that at this time, these two pets in his eyes would open their mouths and speak human language!
At the same time, the other villagers were also shocked. Obviously, they were also shocked by the Wuxing Crocodile and Little Taichu speaking human language.
For these ordinary villagers, this was really too inconceivable for animals to speak.
Lin Tian saw the shock in the eyes of these villagers but did not say anything. Instead, he walked toward the five True Immortals.
"You want to stop us from taking the divine orchid?!"
Seeing Lin Tian's action, the five people knew that Lin Tian did not want to take the Thousand Illusion Sacred Orchid for himself. Lin Tian was guarding Snow Wolf just now. If he wanted to take the Thousand Illusion Sacred Orchid, he would have already taken it and left. They could see that Lin Tian seemed to have some kind of relationship with the Snow Wolf. At this time, he just wanted to stop the five of them from taking the Thousand Illusion Sacred Orchid.
In front of the witch's tomb, Snow Wolf's body could no longer move. Its life force was constantly fading away. At this time, its gaze shifted from the witch's tomb to Lin Tian. Its lifeless eyes flickered slightly. At first, when Lin Tian approached, it thought that Lin Tian wanted to take the Thousand Illusion Sacred Orchid. However, Lin Tian did not. Now, Lin Tian was facing off against the five True Immortals alone. Obviously, he wanted to protect the Thousand Illusion Sacred Orchid for it. Endless gratitude appeared in its eyes.
"Hmph!"
A cold voice rang out, intertwined with coldness and killing intent.
The three True Immortals of the Manwe dynasty wore purple robes, blue robes, and golden robes respectively. Among them, the blue-robed elder looked coldly at Lin Tian and said, "You have offended the Manwe dynasty and attacked us secretly. No matter which one of you was the culprit, you have already committed a crime punishable by death. Later, we will destroy your body and soul. Now, you dare to stand in front of us?"
The purple-robed elder and blue-robed elder of this lineage also had cold gazes, and the killing intent in their eyes was not concealed at all.
At the same time, the other two True Immortals were no exception.
The five of them did not change their pace at all. They slowly walked into the Huai Forest.
Their slow pace was naturally not because they were wary of Lin Tian's obstruction. Although Lin Tian had sent them flying with five streaks of sword radiance, they did not pay much attention to Lin Tian. Although the five streaks of sword radiance had sent them flying, they had not been able to injure them. This made them feel that Lin Tian's current combat strength was not a threat to them.
At this moment, they were walking slowly into the Huai Forest because they were wary of the other True Immortals besides themselves.
Lin Tian watched the five of them stride towards him from the center of the Huai Forest and walked directly towards them.
"Hum!"
There was a flash of light and the Immortal Emperor Pagoda emerged from his body, intertwined with purple Primordial Qi. Then, in the next moment, a surge of white divine light emerged from the Immortal Emperor Pagoda and surged into his body.
