Not sure if in this season, the southern border's sky would always be this hazy, after coming out from that small hill, under Xiao Bai's guidance, two people and one monkey headed towards FenXiang Valley west. That night, the volcano in FenXiang Valley Inferno Altar erupted, Heaven and Earth changed, the power was extremely great, within a hundred miles radius it was felt, several days later, in the southern border's gloomy sky, that huge hole formed by the scorching hot lava, although had disappeared but there was still a huge patch of cloud, showing a reddish yellow colour, hanging high in FenXiang Valley's direction, it was very strange. This kind of Heaven and Earth change, was already eye-catching, now that it happened in the always low-key and mysterious FenXiang Valley, in addition to FenXiang Valley's own position in the Good Faction cultivation world, it attracted everyone's attention.
For a moment, the world was full of rumours, everyone was guessing what exactly happened in FenXiang Valley? In just a few days, the usually peaceful southern border savage lands, started to gather many unfamiliar faces, innumerable open or hidden powerhouses, all probing openly and secretly what exactly happened. This situation, naturally FenXiang Valley was not happy to see, on the contrary, due to some unknown secret, FenXiang Valley was extremely furious.
On one hand, FenXiang Valley was amiable towards Qing Yun sect, TianYin Temple etc Good Faction big sects' disciples who came to enquire, treated them with good tea and water, at the end brushed it off with a 'natural disaster'. On the other hand, towards the Evil Faction three big sects' secret spying, FenXiang Valley within their own sphere of influence, for a moment in the vast lands of southern border with FenXiang Valley as the centre, swords and shadows flashed. Just that whether it was the Good Faction or the Evil Faction, they all indistinctly felt that under FenXiang Valley's mysterious atmosphere, something was not normal. This time FenXiang Valley seemed to have received a huge shock, almost all the disciples were mobilised, day and night searching non-stop in various parts of southern border, as for who or what they were searching for, they were secretive and could not be revealed.
After a few days, the southern border's gloomy sky became much livelier, often many dazzling beautiful lights flashed across the sky, FenXiang Valley's outstanding disciples were searching for something.
Rumours, also started to spread. What strange beast was born, or a mysterious treasure shot up to the sky from the volcanic crater, all kinds of rumours, so on and so forth. What was even more outrageous was that there were rumours that FenXiang Valley had internal strife and that a rebel disciple killed the valley master Yun YiLan. And correspondingly, FenXiang Valley valley master Yun YiLan indeed did not appear for several days. In the end the rumour spread more and more ferocious, even within a few days it alarmed Qing Yun Sect Reverend DaoXuan and TianYin Temple PuHong Master, both of them jointly sent out disciples to FenXiang Valley to inquire, FenXiang Valley did not know whether to laugh or cry, could only explain that the valley master was in seclusion and could not appear. The conclusive news was relayed back, Qing Yun Sect and Tian Yin Temple were then relieved, just that these two big sects' heads were such figures, how could they not guess that there must be something fishy in this, they secretly ordered their disciples not to rush back to the mountain, but to secretly investigate. Now that the world was in chaos, demons were running amok, FenXiang Valley had always been mysterious and ambiguous, that year in the battle of Qing Yun, they happened to be lacking troops, one could not help but to think of something.
Therefore because of Ghost Li's action of accidentally rescuing the nine-tailed celestial fox who had been suppressed for three hundred years, it triggered the world's situation, the southern border's winds and clouds gathering. Because FenXiang Valley had sent out numerous disciples to track and investigate, with Ghost Li and Xiao Bai's skills, naturally they would not be afraid of these disciples but thinking that if their whereabouts were exposed, unavoidably there would be countless troubles and if the important figures in FenXiang Valley were alarmed, they would lead a large group to pursue, most likely it would be difficult to resist, after all FenXiang Valley was a thousand years old big sect, their potential was unpredictable.
Ghost Li thought that the most important thing now, was still to investigate the black shaman tribe who could save BiYao. So after coming down from that small mountain, under Xiao Bai's suggestion, Ghost Li found a remote village and used money to buy two sets of local clothes, one male and one female, and Xiao Bai changed into them.
The southern border was a remote place, the customs were naturally different from Central Plains, even the ordinary clothes, compared to the Central Plains common people's clothes, had a different style. Because they were bought from a remote village, so the rough workmanship was expected, wearing them, the biggest difference between these clothes and Central Plains clothes, other than the different styles, was the brighter colours, the men's clothes were dark blue as the base, the women's colours were complicated, resplendent. Because they had to avoid FenXiang Valley's eyes and ears, Ghost Li and the rest were unable to fly, although Ghost Li was anxious but with Xiao Bai's persuasion, saying that they had waited for ten years, could it be that when things came to a head, they could not even wait for a few days?
If because of a moment of impatience, they attracted FenXiang Valley's pursuers, most likely the situation would be chaotic and instead they would have to wait even longer! Although Ghost Li was anxious but he could not deny that Xiao Bai's words were reasonable, the two of them walked slowly. They were dressed in southern border clothes, walking slowly, along the way they met several groups of FenXiang Valley disciples but they did not recognise them. At most because of Xiao Hui's unusual appearance, they took a few more glances. The most important thing was that that night, Ghost Li and Xiao Hui did not reveal themselves, so the FenXiang Valley people did not know what they looked like and only focused on investigating the strange movements of strangers, they instead ignored them.
Right now, Ghost Li and Xiao Bai were already walking on an ancient path three hundred miles away from FenXiang Valley, it was the wilderness, not a single figure could be seen on the road. Just less than an hour ago, they had just swaggered over from a group of FenXiang Valley disciples. The sky was hazy, the dark clouds moved lightly, Ghost Li frowned slightly and walked forward. Contrary to him, Xiao Bai who was beside him always had a smile on her face, in high spirits, looking around along the way, gazing at the southern border scenery, even though it was a desolate desolate ancient path, in her eyes, it seemed to be the most beautiful scenery.
Ghost Li glanced to his side, the monkey Xiao Hui was sitting on Xiao Bai's shoulder, calm and composed. Not knowing if it was because they were all rare spiritual creatures in the world, Xiao Hui was extremely affectionate towards the nine-tailed celestial fox incarnation Xiao Bai, these few days it seemed to spend more time with Xiao Bai.
Looking at Xiao Hui and Xiao Bai joking with each other from time to time, emitting 'zhi zhi' sounds of laughter, Ghost Li suddenly thought, if his old friend Zeng ShuShu saw them like this, he would definitely be very envious! Xiao Bai was wearing a southern border girl's ordinary clothes, the style was no different from ordinary people, just that this ordinary clothes, matched with her exceptional looks, immediately seemed to radiate light and heat, even more revealing an unprecedented elegance, as if this girl was born to wear this kind of clothes, everywhere she revealed the southern border girl's unique charm.
Xiao Bai seemed to notice Ghost Li's gaze, turned and smiled, said, "Why, I am wearing this, do I still look good?" Ghost Li smiled faintly, with his character, he was unwilling to answer this kind of slightly frivolous topic, he changed the topic and asked, "I see you are extremely familiar with this southern border place's customs and environment, not to mention other things, just the mountain near FenXiang Valley and that ancient desolate small village, you can actually find it, don't tell me you have been here before?"
Xiao Bai pursed her lips, her eyes looked ahead, saw the distant mountains connected together, endless, it was the southern border's unique landform. An ancient path before her, meandering forward, on both sides, either near or far, there were grotesque rocks and towering hills. The distant mountain horizon, connected, gloomy dark clouds hung on the peaks, drifting with the wind.
She walked slowly, after a long time sighed, faintly said, "I have not only been here before …" Ghost Li was slightly surprised, said, "What is it?" Xiao Bai let out a long breath, smiled and shook her head, as if wanting to shake off the past, said, "You don't know right! Our Fox Demon Clan originated from here in the Southern Border, and I grew up in these barren mountains and unruly rivers. " Ghost Li was stunned for a moment, said, "Then why for these thousand years, the folklore of Central Plains, always had your fox demon's shadow?"
Xiao Bai indifferently said, "That is because a thousand years ago, I led our fox demon clan, left this place, headed to Central Plains and finally settled in the southwest Majestic Fox Mountain." Ghost Li was shocked, for a moment he could not speak, after a long while he said, "What, you …" Xiao Bai looked at him with interest, smiled, a glint flashed past her eyes, like ambiguity and also like the vicissitudes of life, "Didn't expect it right, this is where your Ghost King sect headquarters is located.
Speaking of which, the name Majestic Fox Mountain, most likely came from our fox demon clan! " Ghost Li was silent for a long time, slowly said, "Then have you and Ghost King sect …" Xiao Bai did not wait for him to finish, directly shook her head and said, "You don't have to worry about this, our fox demon clan and Ghost King sect have been neighbours for hundreds of years and have always been peaceful, not only that, in these hundreds of years, there were a few human-demon relationships. So, other than repaying you for saving me from Inferno Altar, knowing that you are a Ghost King sect disciple, is also one of the reasons why I am willing to help you. "
Ghost Li was then relieved, then thought of something, said, "Then after this matter is over, are you still going to return to Majestic Fox Mountain to visit your fellow clan members?" "Fellow clan members?" Xiao Bai's face slowly dimmed, looked up at the sky, after a long while, softly said, "My fellow clan members, have all been killed by me." Ghost Li was stunned again, Xiao Bai gave a bitter laugh, her expression turned even more desolate but she did not wish to speak anymore. Ghost Li was silent for a moment, diverted the topic, said, "We have already walked for three days, how far are we from that 'Seven Mile Cave' that you mentioned?" Xiao Bai looked at him, her watery eyes swept past his face, said, "Seven Mile Cave is the southern border Miao's largest settlement, according to my impression, twenty miles from here, it is a bustling place where various clans live together, called 'Sky Water Stockade', from there to the south there is a treacherous small path, it is the path to the Miao people's Seven Mile Cave."
