Prince Yue's words were so righteous that the corner of my mouth twitched. I couldn't help but say, "With such a strong stance, those who didn't know better would think that you have some kind of grudge against the non-humans!"
/p
He clenched his fists and glanced at me. "What did you say?"
/p
I was worried that he would get angry, so I hurriedly spat twice and said, "You're scolding yourself. I didn't say anything! I didn't say anything! "
/p
Just like the young man with the snake tail said, the snake cultivators weren't bad by nature. In fact, they were very kind. When it was time for lunch, they still remembered to deliver food to the door. I didn't dare to open the big bowls with the lids, as I was afraid that some rats and frogs would crawl out. Prince Yue was probably also hungry. He looked at me helplessly and had no choice but to help himself. He stood in front of me and opened the lids.
/p
I peeked through the gap behind him and asked, "How is it? What is it?"
/p
Prince Yue raised the bowl in front of me. It was fragrant white rice.
/p
Actually, living in the non-human snake cultivator group was quite comfortable. There were people who delivered food and water, and we were living like guests. On the first night, there were two bare-chested snake cultivators. One of them was holding a club, and the other was holding a hammer. They knocked on the door and entered. I almost screamed and kicked them out.
/p
Fortunately, Prince Yue appeared in time and sealed my mute acupoint. I opened my mouth, but no sound came out. Prince Yue asked politely, "What are the two of you doing here?"
/p
"We were afraid that Fellow Immortal's cultivation would be delayed at night, so we came to fix your bed."
/p
It was rare for Prince Yue to be speechless.
/p
Soon, it was time for the Revered Pangu Classics. The snake cultivators had been rubbing their hands in anticipation for the past few days. One day before dawn, the doorbell rang. I woke up with a muddy head and resentfully opened the door, only to see Lan Shan with a happy face. It was the snake-tailed teenager who first received us. He was happily preparing to rush in. I was startled and hurriedly pulled him back. Prince Yue hasn't put on his clothes yet!
/p
"Why are you in such a hurry?"
/p
Lan Shan wanted to look inside, but I blocked his view. "My grandpa isn't dressed yet."
/p
"You're already awake, but your grandfather is still not awake?"
/p
I said shamelessly, "My family's master is always tired at night."
/p
Lan Shan became even more excited. "I've long heard that the Blessed Land of Dual Cultivation is very special. Now I have the chance to take a look!"
/p
I panicked. I couldn't let him see Prince Yue's appearance. However, Lan Shan was indeed a snake cultivator. His body was as nimble as a slippery snake. In the blink of an eye, he slipped into the room. I shouted, "Why are you like this?"
/p
This sentence was practically shouted out by me. I was hoping that Prince Yue could hear it so that he could make preparations. After all, the scars on his body were really eye-catching and could easily identify him. Hiding them from Lan Shan was the most important thing.
/p
I heard Lan Shan say with a trembling voice, "You, you!"
/p
It's over. It's over.
/p
I quickly rushed in to take a look, only to see the half-asleep Prince Yue squinting his eyes under the mask. He looked at us blankly. Although his clothes were not neat, his undergarments were enough to cover his shame. "Why did you come in?"
/p
Lan Shan slid in. His eyes were burning. "Is this what dual cultivation looks like?"
/p
"What does it look like?"
/p
"It's a man and a woman sitting opposite each other. The man does his best to move the woman until he's dripping with sweat. Will the bed collapse?"
/p
I rushed in and heard this sentence. I almost fainted. Oh my god, what kind of education did non-humans teach children? Prince Yue was rendered speechless. As if he was the mistress of the house, he ran to the bedside and sat down. Pretending to be a hag, he said: "What nonsense is this child spouting? Why haven't you scrammed out yet?"
/p
Lan Shan said, "I'm not going out. I have something to do."
/p
I didn't dare to let my guard down. "What is it?"
/p
"The Zun Pan Gu Scripture has begun. I, a snake cultivator, have to set out." When he said the Zun Pan Gu Scripture, Lan Shan immediately put on a serious expression. "I'm here to invite the two of you to set out with us."
/p
Although Lan Shan didn't deliberately reveal his identity in front of us, from his aura and the respectful attitude of the people around him, his status wasn't low. He might even be a leader.
/p
Prince Yue opened his mouth and asked, "Is the lackey of the imperial court here?"
/p
I was surprised and asked, "Who?"
/p
Prince Yue said in a sad and resentful tone, "Who else could it be? It's the Ghost King who didn't stop even after being struck by lightning, Yang Qi!"
/p
I was stunned. Prince Yue was a badass. When he was angry, he even scolded himself!
/p
Lan Shan liked it very much. He joined Prince Yue in hating a common enemy. "Yang Qi is an animal. Today, I received news that he sent his guards to enter Guan Zhongsheng Village. I don't know where his real body is. He must have noticed our grand plan. That's why he sent his vanguard guards to their deaths. He wanted to take advantage of the chaos and enter the city. "
/p
Prince Yue didn't bat an eyelid and continued to scold himself. "Using other people's lives to protect his own. This kind of person deserves to die. However, I'm stupid. Fellow immortal, how did you know that the Ghost King knew about the Zun Pan Gu Scripture?" When Prince Yue introduced himself, he only said that his name was Qi. He dropped his surname and cut off his bloodline. Everyone thought that he was Qi. Only I knew that he was Qi.
/p
Lan Shan said, "I don't know. I just heard that the people of Guan Zhongsheng Village came out to mess things up. Those big tailed wolves pretend to be pure. They obviously have the same roots as us immortal cultivators, but they still pretend to be disgusting animals. "
/p
"Has the Saintess of Guan Zhongsheng Village also returned?"
/p
Lan Shan said, "Wasn't the Saintess killed by the Ghost King? The new Saintess has become the Ghost King's wife. Didn't they say that they were only pretending to join the Imperial Court? Their hearts are in the Imperial Court's camp. In my opinion, they're just greedy for glory and glory. They've long forgotten about their own divine bloodline and the glorious mission on their shoulders. "
/p
This youngster is still a youngster. He spilled everything out as soon as he opened his mouth. He didn't even need to deceive me. This is a serious matter. I glanced at Prince Yue and asked, "Didn't you say that the relationship between Guan Zhongsheng Village and the non-human race is mysterious and unpredictable? How could it be so easily exposed by a little kid? "
/p
Prince Yue's mouth opened slightly. His eyes were filled with obvious surprise.
/p
I thought for a moment and said, "Although you guys don't like to talk about things with me, sometimes I'm really confused. So, I rudely interrupted and asked," Who's in charge of Guan Zhongsheng Village now? The old Saintess is dead, and the new Saintess has been bewitched by the Ghost King. Normally, Guan Zhongsheng Village should be unguarded. "
/p
"Didn't the old Saintess have a disciple?"
/p
I thought for a moment. Could it be the Little Tang Zou?
/p
Lan Shan continued, "Originally, it was said that she was her niece. Later, she married into the capital of the Beast Dynasty. “/p
/p
I forced a smile and said, "My husband and I came from a big city, so we're quite well-informed. I heard that the Tang family was confiscated and nine generations of their family were executed for treason. If the old Saintess' niece and disciple really married into the Tang family with the old Saintess, they should have been beheaded by the Emperor. How could she have escaped? "
/p
Lan Shan said, "Rumor has it that she sold a prescription to a powerful person in exchange for a chance to escape."
/p
"What prescription?"
/p
Lan Shan shrugged and said, "That's all I could find out. You have to know that Guan Zhongsheng Village and the non-humans have only had a cooperative relationship for so many years. They don't have a good relationship. "
/p
I continued to ask, "Does Guan Zhongsheng Village also have non-human bloodlines?"
/p
Prince Yue gently warned me, "Rude, you talk too much."
/p
Lan Shan waved his hand and stood in front of me to explain, "You're a man, so you should show your face in public. Immortal friend's wife has a delicate body. In the world of beasts, her life has always been inferior. She can't listen or see, so she just closes her eyes in the small space of the inner residence. Now that she's here, she's naturally curious about everything. What's rude about asking a few more questions? "
/p
I said, "Thank you in advance, little brother Lan."
/p
Lan Shan raised his voice and said, "There's no need to thank me. If Immortal friend's wife has anything she doesn't understand, she can ask me."
/p
I hurriedly said politely, "Actually, there's nothing to ask. It's just that my husband and I entered the sect by chance. We don't know much about the sect's history. We don't know as much as you people with pure bloodlines."
/p
"It's a strange thing. Guan Zhongsheng Village was originally a non-human bloodline. Later, there was an ancient goddess from the Feng Clan who had great magic power. She could transform a snake's tail into a pair of legs. Her bloodline had this ability. Because of this ability, they gradually fell out with the remaining non-human tribes and moved to the Central Plains. As time passed, the non-humans slowly declined while the humans took advantage of the situation to rise. Guan Zhongsheng Village avoided this disaster because they looked like humans. The non-humans, on the other hand, could only live in the Southwest. "
/p
He didn't explain the problem in detail, and I was itching to ask more questions. However, a voice suddenly came from outside the door. "Young Master Lan, it's time to leave." This sentence abruptly cut off my curiosity.
/p
Prince Yue also advised, "It's time to leave. The sky is already bright."
/p
Lan Shan said to me, "When we have time, I'll tell you in detail." Then, he raised his snake tail and said loudly, "Let's go."
/p
A group of snake-tailed people slid out of their houses with straight backs and responded to Lan Shan, "Let's go! Let's go! "
/p
A nest of half-human, half-snake people, full of vigor and vitality, solemnly climbed the mountain. The mountain forest was dense and hazy. In the forest, we met two small groups of people. I hid in the crowd and carefully observed them. I found that they were just humans. One group had fish gills behind their ears. The other group didn't have hands, only hairy claws with long nails. They looked like stray cats that could scratch people to death.
/p
"Bao Xiu is here. The merfolk tribe is here too." Lan Shan seemed very happy, but he wasn't happy when facing Bao Xiu. "This time, we're lucky to travel together with the merfolk tribe. In the past, the Condemnation Ceremony had tormented us snake cultivators half to death. Now that we've seen the Fishmen Tribe, we can hitch a ride and relax a lot. "
/p
The merfolk leader opened the gills behind his ears and said proudly, "Well said, well said."
/p
A person standing in the front row with claws suddenly pointed at me and asked loudly, "Why are there beasts here?"
/p
The word 'beast' was like a plate of sliced vegetables. When the three non-human teams gathered together, they were like a frying pan that had been heated for a long time. As soon as the vegetables were placed in the pan, a sizzling sound was heard, and the atmosphere became lively.
/p
Lan Shan said, "Brother Qi and his wife are a loose cultivator couple that I met on the path of the snake cultivators. I've judged the people I'm protecting. Is there anything wrong?"
/p
Bao Xiu stepped forward and said, "Our Bao Xiu's nose is very sensitive. You snake cultivators alone can't judge. Let us judge again."
/p
I was so nervous that I squeezed Prince Yue's hand. Prince Yue patted me as if he was comforting me.
/p
Lan Shan was a good child. He wasn't good at quarreling. He just glanced at us and said hesitantly, "This …"
/p
Bao Xiu stepped forward and sneered, "If they're really loose cultivators, then let me Bao Xiu judge again. What harm is there in that?"
/p
Prince Yue casually retorted, "It really doesn't matter whether my identity is verified or not. However, the Leopard Cultivator's clansmen are being so overbearing. Are they trying to take away all of the Snake Cultivator's face?"
/p
Bao Xiu might have a fiery temper, but he wasn't stupid. "Loose cultivators like you don't know what's good for you. You casually want to provoke a conflict between our clans. I think that if you don't have a guilty conscience, you wouldn't be afraid to answer my question."
/p
Prince Yue was tall and modest. He glanced at Bao Xiu indifferently. He used his actions to prove that it wasn't that he didn't dare, but that he didn't want to. He didn't want to argue with this kind of person. He didn't want to fight with this kind of person.
/p
Lan Shan said, "Bao Xiu, you're going too far."
/p
I lowered my voice and asked Prince Yue, "How confident are you that we won't be able to see through our identities?"
/p
Prince Yue's voice sounded a little doubtful. "True identity?"
/p
Exasperated, I reminded his suddenly stupid brain, "It's the cover of the non-human race! Let them think that we're not humans. How confident are we? "
/p
Prince Yue helplessly replied, "Ten percent."
/p
Hearing such an answer, it was as though I had eaten a pill of reassurance. I looked at the two clansmen who were inexplicably facing each other. I took a step forward and said loudly, "Fellow Immortals, there is no need to quarrel because of us husband and wife. If we break the unity of our clansmen, it would be a great sin." I turned back to look at Prince Yue, my eyes filled with tenderness. "Husband, let's leave. We're not allowed to participate in such a grand event. Even if we have to pay our respects outside of Guan Zhongsheng Village, it'll still be good. "
/p
Lan Shan's eyes flashed. He seemed to be extremely angry. "You two are guests of the snake cultivators. How can you let yourself be humiliated like this?"
/p
I shook my head. "Little Brother Lan, there's no need to do this for us."
/p
Lan Shan didn't wait for me to finish. He shouted at Bao Xiu, "You Bao Xiu have been dissatisfied with us snake cultivators for a long time. Now you want to drive away my guests in front of the Revered Pangu Ancient Scripture. I don't know what your intentions are."
/p
"How sacred is the Revered Pangu Ancient Scripture? Naturally, we can't allow a lowly race like the beasts to participate."
/p
Lan Shan sneered. "I've already said that this couple is our guests. I've already determined their identities. Now, Bao Xiu is being so overbearing. Are you trying to bully us snake cultivators? "
/p
"Ridiculous!" Bao Xiu was so angry that his beard curled. "How did I become the one bullying you snake cultivators?"
/p
Seeing that the conflict between the two tribes was getting more and more intense, the murloc commander by the side had no choice but to step forward and act as a peacemaker. "Leopard Xiu is also thinking for the sake of his tribe. How is it that he doesn't trust Snake Xiu? It's clearly because he doesn't trust …" He glanced in our direction and stopped in time.
/p
I said sorrowfully, "Husband, let's just leave. Let the beasts beat us to death. Don't even think about returning to the non-human race."
/p
Lan Shan didn't stop us this time. In the end, he had already given the snake cultivators enough face.
/p
The fishman ran two steps forward. "Fellow Immortals, please stop. It would be better to check your identities with Bao Xiu. Just one check is enough. If we can verify your identities, our three tribes will definitely treat you two as guests."
/p
I held back my tears and stubbornly said, "Just one check?"
/p
"Just one check!"
/p
"No more doubts?"
/p
"I won't have the slightest suspicion."
/p
I nodded and said, "Good! Then let's have Bao Xiu come up and check. "
/p
Bao Xiu didn't seem to think that I would agree so quickly. I saw that he was already sharpening his claws and waiting for us to escape. He didn't expect that he would accept the task of checking our identities and attract everyone's attention.
/p
He sheepishly withdrew the sharp claws on his claws and took two steps forward. When he was in front of me, he carefully sniffed twice. His expression changed. Then, with lightning speed, he plucked a strand of hair from my head and put it in his mouth. His face turned ashen.
/p
"You're done?"
/p
Bao Xiu's face twitched as he nodded. "Finished."
/p
I tried my best to portray a weak image. My slender white finger pointed towards Prince Yue and said, "There's another one over there. Hurry up and check. After you're done, quickly dispel your doubts."
/p
Bao Xiu was a bit embarrassed and repeatedly waved his hand. "No more checking, no more checking."
/p
Lan Shan jumped out at this moment? When he came out, his snake tail swayed behind him like a peacock with its tail open. He put his hands on his hips and his eyes turned into sharp vertical slits. "You think you're going to stop just because you say so? Where did that arrogant aura come from? "
/p
Bao Xiu obviously didn't think that the situation would turn out like this. It was as if every word he said was wrong. Right now, he could only quietly lower his head. The less he said, the less he would be scolded.
/p
The fishman also came forward to smooth things over. "Bao Xiu, everyone, let's apologize to this couple." He took the lead and respectfully said, "The fishman tribe is willing to invite the two of you to be our honored guests."
/p
Lan Shan smiled and slid to our side, as if to help us. "Brother Qi and his wife are the honored guests of the Snake Cultivators."
/p
Everyone's eyes turned towards Bao Xiu. Bao Xiu, who was shouting the loudest at the front, suddenly became mute. He held back for a long time until his face and neck were red. Then, he said in a voice as soft as a mosquito, "Bao Xiu, Bao Xiu is willing to invite the two of you to be our honored guests."
/p
Lan Shan fanned the flames. "I can't hear you."
