"I only remember those friends by your side. Could it be that you've forgotten about that girl Qingcheng?" Xiang Kuo's expression softened at first, then darkened again. The gaze he used to look at Lu Xiaotian suddenly became somewhat unfriendly.
"Of course I haven't forgotten. Did something happen to Qingcheng?" Lu Xiaotian frowned. He naturally wouldn't be scared by Xiang Kuo.
"You still have the face to say that? Back then, you didn't say a word and escaped into that dangerous place through the teleportation formation at the Innocuous Lake. Qingcheng, that girl, personally entered the teleportation formation to find you." Xiang Kuo snorted.
"What? Why would Qingcheng barge into the teleportation formation? Doesn't she know the dangers inside?" Lu Xiaotian's expression suddenly changed. He couldn't be more clear about how powerful the sword embryo left behind by the Ethereal Venerable was. Although he didn't know what level it had reached, there was definitely no opponent below the Spirit Severing Stage. With Xiang Qingcheng's strength at that time, if he entered the Ethereal Palace, he would either die or be injured!
"Don't play dumb with me. Don't you know what that girl Qingcheng thinks about you?" Xiang Kuo snorted.
"Of course I know. It's just that I'm fine with other things, but this relationship is a mess. I don't know what to do with Qingcheng. " Lu Xiaotian smiled bitterly. It was troublesome to keep these things in his heart. He didn't know why, but he was willing to talk about it with Xiang Kuo. Not only did he roughly tell him about Luo Ping 'er, he even mentioned a little about Luo Qing and Su Qing when he was in the Moon Gazing Continent. After talking about it, he felt much more relaxed.
"I couldn't tell that you're so indecisive when it comes to relationships even though you're usually quite fierce. I say, you're simply thinking too much. If a flower blooms, it must be plucked. Why do you care so much? If there's something to accept, just accept it. Even if the sky falls, there's someone tall to hold it up. What's the use of worrying about this and that? "
Xiang Kuo's words immediately caused the veins on Lu Xiaotian's forehead to bulge.
"Then tell me, should I accept Qingcheng or not?" Lu Xiaotian said unhappily.
"Well, I can't be bothered to talk nonsense with you. Do as you see fit. In any case, you are not allowed to hurt Qingcheng's heart. Otherwise, don't blame me for falling out with you. "When Xiang Kuo thought of this, he felt a headache coming on. He grumbled impatiently.
The corner of Lu Xiaotian's mouth twitched. There was really no reason to reason with Xiang Kuo. However, after listening to Xiang Kuo's words, Lu Xiaotian was relieved. At least he knew that Xiang Qingcheng was safe.
"When Qingcheng entered the Teleportation Formation, she was indeed heavily injured. With Mister Kuang Yang's Spirit Pills, it took her more than ten years to recover. Your friends have also entered the Spiritual Mound Secret Domain together with Qingcheng. They should have received news about you. I'm afraid it won't be long before they arrive one after another, "Xiang Kuo added.
"That's good." Hearing that Xiang Qingcheng had been recuperating for a few years, Lu Xiaotian's heart was filled with mixed feelings. With Xiang Qingcheng's status and with sufficient Spirit Pills, she had been recuperating for more than ten years. It could be seen how serious her injuries were when she entered the Ethereal Hall.
"Let's talk as we walk. Zhou Shiqing and Zhou Shihu, that pair of blockheads won't give up so easily. They might even gather others to deal with us. "After stopping for a while, Xiang Kuo urged.
Lu Xiaotian and Xiang Kuo talked as they walked. From Xiang Kuo, they found out that the experts of the Tianwu Kingdom, Ghost Clan, Demon Clan, and Zhao Clan had discovered traces of a Demonic Deer. The Demonic Deer was wrapped in a ball of white light. It didn't look like an ordinary Demonic Beast and was somewhat similar to the Long Yuan in the records. However, when the group of experts followed the deer to a canyon, they saw the shiny Demonic Deer disappear into the canyon. This immediately caused the experts of the various clans to become extremely anxious.
These experts of the Demon Clan and Ghost Clan also wanted to follow into the canyon. However, as soon as they entered, a demonic wind blew and black sand filled the sky. The people outside the canyon couldn't see what was happening inside. They could only hear a ghost-like howl. Many experts who entered the canyon shouted and screamed. Not long after, miserable screams came one after another. It was said that apart from a Zhao Clan expert who was traveling with the Demon Clan, none of the others were able to escape. More than ten Late Nascent Soul Stage experts fell inside.
However, the Zhao Clan cultivator also brought back an important clue. The reason why the Zhao Clan cultivator was able to escape from the canyon was because he had accidentally picked up a Wind Setting Stone. With the help of the Wind Setting Stone, he was able to avoid the interference of the demonic wind and escape the attacks of the demonic ghosts inside the demonic cave.
"That Demonic Deer emitting a ball of light is the Long Yuan?" Lu Xiaotian asked doubtfully.
"In this world, there are no demonic creatures that can live for hundreds of thousands of years. The Pre-Qin Dynasty Guardian Dragon Beast has already died. However, according to records, the Long Yuan can only be derived from demonic creatures whose bloodline is close to the Dragon Beast's. It seizes the good fortune of heaven and earth. Even if the Dragon Deer had already died, after such a long time, it's not impossible for a spiritual creature like the Long Yuan to give birth to its own spirit. "Xiang Kuo said with a serious face.
"Since the Zhao Clan cultivator came out alive and knew the secret of the Wind Setting Stone, wouldn't it be better to gather the clan's experts and enter the canyon to obtain the Long Yuan?" Although Lu Xiaotian trusted Xiang Kuang, he couldn't help but feel that there was something fishy about this matter. If he didn't get to the bottom of this, Lu Xiaotian wouldn't feel at ease.
"When that old man called Zhao Yuandu escaped from there, he was already seriously injured. He encountered several experts from the Da Qi State and the Demon Clan. Do you think that Zhao Yuandu could survive without handing over the wind-setting stone?" Xiang Kuo sneered and said, "Moreover, the few Zhao Clan members who traveled with him died, leaving only Zhao Yuandu. Do you think that True Meaning cultivators are cabbages that can be dug out from any vegetable garden? "
"What you mean is that the Zhao Clan members also need the help of others to find the Long Yuan." After Xiang Kuo's explanation, it made sense. Not to mention experts who comprehended the Five Elements and Three Wonders True Meaning. Even ordinary great cultivators were rare to see in any of the major powers. To the Zhao Clan, losing a few of them in the nameless canyon was an unbearable loss. Moreover, those that were able to enter this place were all great cultivators or experts at the level of greater demons. Even Mid Nascent Soul stage experts would find it difficult to pass through that dark barrier. After losing manpower, it wouldn't be easy to replenish it.
"Not only did they find the Long Yuan, the Long Yuan transformed into a deer and could easily enter the nameless canyon that even True Meaning cultivators find difficult. It can be seen that the Demon Deer's strength has far surpassed any of us here. Even if we find the Long Yuan and Deer in that strange canyon, I'm afraid we can't avoid a great battle. "Xiang Kuo nodded.
"Then where did this Wind Setting Stone come from? Is it enough for the two of us? "Lu Xiaotian asked again.
