"So it's Senior Sister Fang. You've come?"
Just as Fang Xiaomei was about to take a step forward, she heard a relieved voice in the air not too far away. She quickly turned around and saw several men wearing blue Daoist robes. The one in front looked to be in his thirties and was holding a long sword in his hand. He waved his hand to signal the other Daoists to leave while he himself rode a cloud over. He smiled from afar and said, "I just sensed that someone had entered the Great Snow Mountain from the back of the mountain. I thought it was someone else, so I hurriedly came with a few Junior Brothers to investigate. I didn't expect that it would be Senior Fang. Why didn't you tell me in advance? I could have come to welcome you. I wasn't paying attention just now and almost attacked …"
"Junior Han!"
Fang Xiaomei nodded at him. Actually, from her appearance, she looked to be around sixteen years old. She was much younger than the Daoist, but she called him junior brother. The Daoist didn't find it strange at all. The difference in their cultivations was too great. Fang Xiaomei had a long lifespan, so she naturally looked young. The Daoist was actually younger than her, but he looked a bit older!
"There were too many people at the mountain gate, so I came from the back of the mountain!"
After explaining, she turned towards the tombstone and asked, "That senior is …"
Before she could finish her question, she couldn't help but be stunned. There was no one in front of the tombstone. The man who had been drinking wine in front of the tombstone had left at an unknown time. He was so close to her, but she hadn't noticed him at all!
"What senior?"
Junior Brother Han came closer and looked at the tombstones.
Fang Xiaomei was stunned and said, "I clearly saw someone drinking wine in front of the tombstone!"
Junior Han's expression was a bit flabbergasted as he said, "That's impossible, right? The bones of the ancestors are buried there. It is protected by a large formation. Normal people aren't allowed to go there unless it's a memorial day. This is to avoid offending the ancestors. How could you see someone? Are your eyes playing tricks on you? "
Fang Xiaomei shook her head and said with certainty, "That's impossible. I really saw someone there …"
As he spoke, his eyes lit up and he pointed at the monument. "Look, there's a wine jar in front of the monument!"
With their cultivations, their eyesight was extremely sharp. Although the tombstones were three to four miles away from them, they could still see them clearly. Coincidentally, in front of one of the five tombstones, there was a pitch-black wine jar. Junior Brother Han also saw it. He quickly took out his medallion and rushed over with Fang Xiaomei. When they passed through the formation and arrived before the tombstone, they clearly saw the jar. There were also some wine stains on the tombstone, as if someone had intentionally spilled it on the ground!
Junior Martial Brother Han's face was full of shock. "These days, it's my turn to guard the mountain's array. The Great Snow Mountain has many array formations, so if there's any sign of someone breaking in, I'll definitely be able to detect it. Even if Junior Martial Sister Fang came from the back of the mountain and didn't touch any of the restrictive spells, I would still be able to detect it. But just now, I clearly didn't sense any movement here. How could that person come here without a sound? Could it be a ghost?"
As he spoke, he was about to report to the elders and have them investigate, but he didn't know when they would get an answer!
Fang Xiaomei couldn't find any clues, so she could only put this matter to the back of her mind and report to Junior Martial Brother Han and the elders of the Great Snow Mountain. These elders of the Great Snow Mountain had risen in power in the past three hundred years, and they all had good relations with each other. In addition, the Great Snow Mountain had always been a staunch supporter of the Heavenly Alliance. Immediately, a few irascible elders agreed to follow Fang Xiaomei to the Bo Hai Nation. Regardless of whether they were a match for the disciples of the Philosophers Dao Ground, they had to uphold the reputation of the Yu Family and not let others bully them!
However, there were also some who were more prudent and said, "The disciples of the Philosophers Dao Ground are not to be underestimated. Those who are not at the Yuanying Realm cannot fight them. Even if they are at the Yuanying Realm, they will not be a match for them. Even if we go there, we will not have a good chance of winning. More importantly, the Great Demon Lord Darknorth is vicious and merciless, and his strength is unparalleled. Unless the Little Five Ancestors arrive, no one is a match for him. Moreover, the Little Five Ancestors are currently far away in the Extraterritorial Battlefield and do not know about this matter. Even if they knew, they would not be able to rush over …"
When the elders heard this, their expressions became solemn. They naturally understood this logic.
The Little Five Ancestors of the Great Snow Mountain referred to the Southern Border Ghost King Li Ying, his sister the Red Clothed Hell Master, the Jade-Faced Asura Wang Qiong, the Great Snow Mountain's Martial Saint Han Ying, and the last one was the nominal Golden Crow Great Demon Venerable. If any of the Little Five Ancestors came, the Great Snow Mountain would not be afraid of the Great Demon Lord Darknorth. However, all five of them were in the Extraterritorial Battlefield, so who could deal with the Great Demon Lord?
"Should we tell the Grand Elder?"
Someone suggested in a low voice, but his voice was a little weak!
The Grand Elder was the only one of the Five Ancestors of the Great Snow Mountain who was still alive, the Huqin Elder. He was the senior who established the Great Snow Mountain at that time, and now his cultivation was unfathomable. If he were to come forward, it would naturally be possible to deal with the Great Demon Lord Darknorth. However, the problem was that the senior lived in seclusion, so it would be a little abrupt to ask him to come forward. In addition, when the God Clan was wreaking havoc in the past, he had fought many battles and was seriously injured. Now, for more than three hundred years, his injuries had not recovered, and it was not known if he could fight again …
"Forget it, it's really inappropriate to trouble the Grand Elder with this matter!"
Some people did not agree, but after thinking about it, it was Junior Brother Han who suddenly thought of a person, and said with a smile, "I have another candidate, that person can definitely deal with the Great Demon Lord Darknorth, and he will definitely agree to help …"
The crowd hurriedly asked, "Who is it?"
Junior Brother Han smiled and said, "His hair is three thousand feet white, and he is a deified immortal!"
When the elders heard this, they were all shocked and said in unison, "Senior Bai Qianzhang?"
Everyone became filled with admiration when they mentioned this person. In the past few centuries, his name had already spread across the Tian Yuan Continent. It was this person who controlled the Roll of Godhood, choosing prodigies over the past three hundred years and sending them to the Philosopher's Retreat. Originally, there was internal strife between clans, so they took up most of the spots to enter the Philosopher's Retreat. However, this person was impartial, so who knew how many talented cultivators of humble origins had been sent to the Philosopher's Retreat over the past few centuries. As a result, he became the most respected person on the Tian Yuan Continent!
"But the problem is that senior Bai has already returned the Investiture of the Gods to the Philosophers' Retreat thirty years ago, and his whereabouts are unknown!"
Someone said hesitantly with a frown.
Junior Brother Han smiled and said, "I know where he is. Several months ago, I once sent some records to the Spiritual Mountain Temple on behalf of the Grand Elder, and I happened to see senior Bai there. Only then did I know that he has been living in seclusion in the Spiritual Mountain Temple for the past thirty years, not caring about the affairs of the world!"
"If that's the case, then the matter is settled!"
When the crowd heard this, they all said with some excitement. Of course, there were also people who felt that it was inappropriate to disturb a retired senior!
Fang Xiaomei said, "Even if we don't ask for Grandpa Bai's help, I know where he is living in seclusion, so I should pay him a visit. Senior Brothers, Sisters, and Junior Brothers, I won't be staying here for long. I'll hurry to the Spiritual Mountain Temple, and we'll meet in Bohai Country in two days!"
After saying this, she hurriedly left, and ordered the Flying Serpent to speed up.
