When Xiao Qiang saw that the atmosphere between the two of them was not right, he quickly said, "Xiao Chen, watch your attitude. Since you have already obtained the infant Spirit Fox, why are you not apologizing to Senior Liu?"
On the surface, Xiao Qiang's words seemed to be reprimanding Xiao Chen. However, in reality, he was tacitly admitting that Xiao Chen had obtained the Spirit Blood Jade. He was just giving Liu Fenglin a way out of this embarrassing situation.
With Xiao Chen's intelligence, how could he not understand the First Elder's intentions? He gently placed the Spirit Fox on the table and cupped his hands, smiling, "Senior Liu, this junior did not know what was good for me and spoke rudely. I apologize for offending you."
Liu Fenglin snorted coldly and withdrew his aura. He did not say anything and the expression on his face did not change for the better. It was obvious that he was still in a bad mood.
"Senior Liu, this is a Medial Grade Profound Ranked Spirit Weapon. I see that you do not have a suitable weapon. How about you bear with it?" Xiao Qiang said as he took out the huge sword he obtained from the Tang Clan from his Spatial Ring.
Liu Fenglin looked coldly at the Medial Grade Profound Ranked Spirit Weapon that Xiao Qiang handed over. He did not extend his hand to receive it. After losing the Six-Tailed Spirit Fox, he was unable to accept the huge disparity in strength.
"First Uncle, it seems like Senior Liu does not think highly of this Profound Ranked Spirit Weapon. Coincidentally, my nephew's Spirit Weapon was destroyed. How about Senior Liu give it to me?" Xiao Chen said half-truthfully when he saw that Liu Fenglin was unwilling to receive it.
Although Liu Fenglin was furious, he did not flare up this time. He stood up and left. Xiao Qiang did not see him do anything, but the huge sword in Xiao Qiang's hand automatically flew towards him.
Xiao Chen thought to himself that it was a pity. After all, it was a Medial Grade Profound Ranked Spirit Weapon. In Mohe City, it could be said to be a peak existence.
When Xiao Qiang saw that Liu Fenglin finally accepted the huge sword, he heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. He turned around and lectured Xiao Chen, "Xiao Chen, you cannot be so rude to Elder Liu in the future. He is of the same generation as your grandfather. You cannot forget basic etiquette."
Xiao Chen thought otherwise. This Liu Fenglin relied on his own strength to snatch the things of a junior. He did not have a good impression of him.
Seeing that Xiao Chen did not say anything, Xiao Qiang roughly knew what he was thinking. He explained, "Elder Liu, although he did go overboard in certain aspects, I can guarantee you that he would not do anything detrimental to the Xiao Clan."
Xiao Chen found it funny. It seemed that girls did not have any resistance towards such cute things. He explained, "Clan, Xiao Chen, Xiao Xiao Chen, Chen did not want to continue.
He of Xiao Chen of the Chen. Xiao Chen did not want to and Xiao Chen's and the Spirit Xiao Chen's.
After all, Chen and Chen and the Qiu, and Spirit, were both. He and would be, and the Chen, and Family would.
The Xiao and Fting. The Beast Was that the Xiao Chen. and the Chen, and Chen and Xiao Xiao, who, and Xiao, there, they, was. Xiao, Chen, Chen, Xiao, and, and., he, Liu, I, a Xiao, and.
When Xiao Yulan heard this, she did not show any expression. In her opinion, the death of such a person was not worth pitying. On the other hand, when Xiao Qiang heard Tang Yuan's identity, his expression changed. He seemed to be thinking about something.
When Xiao Chen saw the change in Xiao Qiang's expression, he felt suspicious. Just as he was about to ask a question, a Xiao Clan disciple rushed in from outside the hall. He was holding a letter in his hand and handed it to Xiao Qiang with an anxious expression.
"First Elder, this is an urgent letter sent by the Second Elder."
A letter from the Second Elder?
A look of confusion flashed in Xiao Qiang's eyes. Why would the Second Elder send a letter at this time? The Second Elder of the Xiao Clan often worked in the Qizi County's County Lord's residence. He was the favorite of the County Lord.
In terms of prestige in the Xiao Clan, the Second Elder's prestige was even higher than that of the First Elder, Xiao Qiang. This was because the Xiao Clan's greatest backer was the Qizi County Lord. Currently, the only person who had a say in the Qizi County was the Second Elder.
Xiao Qiang opened the letter and quickly read it. After he saw the contents clearly, his eyes turned grave. After he finished reading, his expression was a mixture of joy and worry.
"What's wrong? What's written in the letter?" Xiao Yulan asked worriedly when she saw her father frowning.
Xiao Chen also looked at Xiao Qiang suspiciously. He did not know what was written in the letter for the First Elder to have such a grave expression. Back then, when they sealed the mountains, he did not have such an expression.
Xiao Qiang put away the letter and said in a deep voice, "The Trial of Gloomy Forest will be brought forward. This is the first-hand news I got from the County Lord. It will reach Mohe City in a few days."
When Xiao Chen heard this, his heart skipped a beat. From the memories of this body, he had some understanding of the Trial of Gloomy Forest.
Gloomy Forest was a Demonic Beast Forest in the Qizi County. There was a spatial crack that connected the Demonic World and the Tianwu Continent. The Demonic Qi from the Demonic World in the crack had contaminated the Spirit Beasts and trees in the forest.
Under the contamination of the Demonic Qi, these Spirit Beasts all turned into horrifying Demonic Beasts. After turning into Demonic Beasts, all the spirituality of the Spirit Beasts would disappear, leaving behind only a bloodthirsty and tyrannical nature.
Their strength would also become even more powerful. A Rank 2 Demonic Beast was as strong as a Rank 3 Spirit Beast. Furthermore, it would always be in a berserk state, making it extremely ferocious.
Some of the trees in the forest had also mutated due to the contamination of the Demonic Qi. Horrifying Tree Spirits and man-eating flowers that were tens of meters tall were everywhere.
After the Demonic Calamity, there were many spatial cracks in the Tianwu Continent. The larger spatial cracks were all sealed by the senior experts of the Three Holy Masters' Lands. They were classified as forbidden lands and outsiders were not allowed to enter.
However, there were too many of these spatial cracks in the continent. It was not realistic for the people of the Three Holy Masters' Lands to seal them all. Thus, some of the smaller spatial cracks remained.
Unless something big happened, the Three Holy Masters' Lands would not send people to seal these small spatial cracks.
The spatial crack in Gloomy Forest was one of these small spatial cracks. The Demonic Qi would only spread within the forest and would not radiate out.
As long as ordinary people did not go into the forest, there would not be any danger. However, if left alone, when the number of Demonic Beasts reached a certain level, they would come out of the forest and threaten the surrounding cities.
Thus, the various countries of the Tianwu Continent would send people to keep an eye on these Demonic Beast Forests. Once there were any abnormal reactions, they would send out strong cultivators to deal with these Demonic Beasts.
The experiential training in Gloomy Forest referred to when they were dealing with these Demonic Beasts, the powers of the surrounding cities would send out their young disciples to the periphery of the Demonic Beast Forest for experiential training.
The environment of the Demonic Beast Forest was vile, and the Demonic Beasts were incomparably ferocious. However, there would not be any strong Demonic Beasts in the periphery. To the young cultivators, it was a very good place for experiential training.
During the experiential training, the various clans would compare themselves with each other. It could be said that it was a big test for the various clans. If the Xiao Clan's results in the experiential training were very bad, the news would quickly spread throughout the entire Mohe City.
It would be a huge blow to the reputation of the entire Xiao Clan. What was more serious was that the Qizi County Lord and the City Lords of the surrounding cities would appear during the experiential training.
As the number one power in Mohe City, the Xiao Clan had to have a good result. If they were not able to obtain first place, they would leave the impression that they were not strong enough and had no successors.
This was also the reason why Xiao Qiang was happy and worried at the same time. If they performed well this time, they would be able to greatly increase the morale of the Xiao Clan before the Promise of Ten Years. If not, it would leave a huge shadow on the Xiao Clan.
Xiao Chen collected his thoughts, but he was not afraid at all. He asked with some anticipation, "When exactly will the experiential training begin?"
"Seven days later. This is the information that I obtained from the County Lord. It will take about two days before it reaches Mohe City. The two of you should pack up and leave the mountain as soon as possible."
"The two of you will be participating in this experiential training. The environment of the Demonic Beast Forest is very vile. I have to hurry back to discuss it and make early preparations," Xiao Qiang said as he looked at the two of them.
Although Xiao Chen was only a Medial Grade Martial Disciple, when he was an Inferior Grade Martial Disciple, he had defeated the Superior Grade Martial Disciple Xiao Jian. Now that he had advanced to Medial Grade Martial Disciple, his strength would naturally increase.
Because Xiao Yulan had awakened her Martial Spirit at the age of five, she had long since become a Medial Grade Martial Master. With such a realm, she could definitely be considered a peak existence in the entire Mohe City.
Whether or not the Xiao Clan could obtain a good result in this experiential training depended largely on the performance of these two people. Xiao Qiang's eyes were filled with anticipation as he looked at the two of them.
"In that case, how are we going to settle the score for the Tang Clan causing trouble in our Seven Horn Mountain?" Xiao Yulan had always remembered the Tang Clan's people injuring Xiao Chen and damaging her wooden hut.
Now that she heard the meaning behind Xiao Qiang's words, it was clear that he wanted to let go of this matter and focus on the experiential training in Gloomy Forest seven days later. Xiao Yulan was somewhat dissatisfied.
Xiao Qiang muttered, "Yesterday, the Third Elder already sent people to the Tang Clan. Now that there are many things happening, it is not suitable for us to start a war with the Tang Clan. Yulan, don't mention this matter again."
Xiao Yulan curled her lips and did not say anything. In her heart, she felt indignant at her father's words.
With regards to the First Elder's words, Xiao Chen agreed with him. From the moment the blue-clothed man suddenly appeared in Seven Horn Mountain and walked together with the Zhang Clan.
Now, the Tang Clan suddenly broke their agreement with the Xiao Clan and entered Seven Horn Mountain en masse to capture the Six-Tailed Spirit Fox.
There was also that mysterious girl, Feng Feixue. Connecting all these together, the small Mohe City was indeed not as peaceful as it looked on the surface. The situation was clearly not in the Xiao Clan's favor.
Thus, he did not think of immediately seeking revenge on the Tang Clan. Firstly, he was not strong enough. Without the Xiao Clan's help, his hopes of shaking the Tang Clan were very slim.
Secondly, although the Tang Clan's operation had nearly forced Xiao Chen into a dead end, in the end, he did not suffer any losses. Furthermore, he had completely ruined their operation.
However, the Tang Clan's operation this time resulted in heavy losses. Two elders and the Tang Clan's First Young Master died tragically. The precious Spirit Blood Jade also fell into Xiao Chen's hands. Their meticulously designed capture plan had completely failed.
In the past, the two clans did not interfere with each other's business. This time, however, they were about to completely fall out with each other. However, the situation in front of them was very delicate. The two clans would probably control their emotions and not act rashly.
