Chapter XII

The sky was as black as ink, and a crescent moon hung over it, and some cold moonlight sprinkled the earth. Deep in the silent forest, orange bonfires are dancing lightly, bringing a touch of warmth to the lonely night.

"It's been a month...... the boy by the campfire leaned against the trunk of a tree, and was teasing the jumping flames with the branches in his hands.

Counting today, it has been a whole month since Yun Xuan left the Yun family, and this month's time has already exhausted the initial freshness, only the loneliness that is getting stronger and stronger accompanies Yun Xuan.

In this month, Yun Xuan did not carry out a single spiritual power cultivation, the reason was very simple, Yun Xuan's cultivation must be accompanied by the assistance of the mysterious spirit array, but in this vast forest, Yun Xuan did not have the conditions to cultivate with peace of mind. So this month, Yun Xuan has just been fighting with spirit beasts non-stop. It is said that there is no time for cultivation, when cultivating spiritual power in the secret room, Yun Xuan did not feel the passage of time, and a year seemed to be just a snap of his fingers, but this month made Yun Xuan completely feel the loneliness brought by time.

"I don't know what happened to Ah Yan and Na Nizi?" Yun Xuan raised his head and looked at the crescent moon, and a faint thought surged into Yun Xuan's heart.

Roar~~~~~

A beastly roar echoed through the forest.

"Hehe, I let you run away last time I was injured, and it seems that I have recovered well, so I happened to be bored tonight, so I'll play with you. Yun Xuan threw the wooden branch in his hand into the bonfire, stood up, and stared at the depths of the forest, his face full of excitement.

............

"Say, have you found Ling Si!" In a splendid hall, a middle-aged man on the main throne was questioning the dozen or so people kneeling in His Highness with an angry face.

"Family master, we, we haven't found any trace of the fourth lady's travel, so there is no way to track ......" Among the dozen or so people kneeling here, the leader replied tremblingly.

"Rubbish!Rubbish!!Can't even track a child!What's the use of you!"

"The head of the family is angry, let's send more people to increase the search area, the fourth lady shouldn't be fast, I think I will definitely be able to find it!" Looking at the middle-aged man's tiger pupils, the person led by him hurriedly said.

"Give you five days, if you can't find Ling Si, you will all go into the blood pool!"

"Yes......"

"Hmph, don't get out of here!" the middle-aged man said with a snort from his nose.

"Lin'er. ”

"Father, I'm here. A young man in a red robe walked out of the side hall and replied respectfully.

"Which forces know the news of Gu Jiantai's current life this time?" the middle-aged man rubbed his eyebrows and asked.

"Father, as far as I know, the news of the appearance of the ancient sword platform this time, apart from us, is only known to the Wan families in the Emperor City and the Xia family in the Yanbo Valley. ”

"Well, it doesn't matter if the Wan family arrives, when the time comes, we can just take what we need, as for the Xia family, it will be troublesome...... Well, Lin'er, you go and keep an eye on the Xia family, no matter what, you can't let them release the news to the Yun family, if the Yun family knows, then they will join forces, but it will be difficult to deal with. ”

"It's my father, I really can't let the Yun family know about this. Father...... Do you think you need to give the Xia family ......," the red-robed young man asked with a gesture of wiping his neck.

"No, although it won't take too much effort for us to destroy his Xia family, but after all, the movement of destroying the not weak forces of one side will not be small, and the Yun family will definitely know that with the friendship between his Yun and Xia families, Yun Haotian's old immortal will definitely help. The matter of the ancient sword platform can't be hidden, so let's wait for the ancient sword platform to slowly annex and eliminate the Xia family after the incident. ”

"It's my father, it's Lin'er who can't think about it. The young man nodded respectfully, thought for a while and said, "Father, that little sister ......"

"Alas, this damn girl doesn't worry at all. Listening to the question of the young man in red, the middle-aged man's brows furrowed again. "That dead girl should have run out when she heard you and I said that there was that thing in the Netherworld Abyss, Lin'er, you keep an eye on the Xia family is the right thing, your eldest sister is in retreat and cultivation, if it doesn't work, I'll let the third child go out to find her." ”

"It's Father, but don't worry too much, Father, little sister is a ghost. ”

"I can't help but see her when I come back this time! Alas, you can go about your business. The middle-aged man rubbed his eyebrows again, and waved his hand to signal the young man to go out.

"Yes, father. The red-robed young man bent down and respectfully saluted the middle-aged man, turned around and walked out of the main hall.

............

"You're really fast. Yun Xuan stared at the Netherworld Tiger Dao in front of him, which kept hitting the invisible sword qi barrier.

The Netherworld Tiger in front of Yun Xuan was a unique product of this Xuanyin Mountain Range, but it could only be seen in the depths of the Xuanyin Mountain Range, and for some reason, it was in this peripheral forest, allowing Yun Xuan to meet one.

Moreover, this Netherworld Tiger is a wind attribute spirit beast, and the value of its beast spirit source is quite high, whether it is a refining medicine refining weapon, it can have a wind attribute beast spirit source as a guide, it is extremely precious, so just thinking about it, Yun Xuan also understands what a lot of spirit stones a special attribute beast spirit source can be exchanged for. Originally, Yun Xuan never thought that with his current strength, he would be able to hunt such a special spirit beast, but since he was so lucky to meet one, and this Nether Tiger was only a second-order spirit beast, Yun Xuan naturally would not let it go.

Last time, because of Yun Xuan's lack of experience, he let this spirit beast, which was already good at speed, run away, and after searching for many days, he didn't find any trace of it, now that he found it again, how could Yun Xuan let it escape again.

After many days of fighting and training, Yun Xuan did not have any progress in spiritual power, but in hand-to-hand combat, Yun Xuan's fighting skills have improved a lot.

Yun Xuan kept hunting, and slowly realized that the "Cloud Shou Three Styles" could not only play a protective role, but also be used to block the retreat of the spirit beast.

No, long before attacking the Nether Tiger, Yun Xuan had arranged the invisible sword qi barrier in advance, and then induced the second-order Netherworld Tiger to flee in the direction of the sword qi barrier, and the speed couldn't catch up with you, so couldn't he set up a block?

"Alright, don't stare at me like that. Yun Xuan's nine swords were connected, and the clouds flowed more and more, and the tip of the sword pointed at the Netherworld Tiger leaning on the invisible sword qi barrier and said, "Alas, at least I won't let you die too painfully, rest in peace." After that, the invisible sword qi strangled towards the Nether Tiger, and with a wail, the second-order Nether Tiger was cut off.

Yun Xuan gently patted the corpse of the Nether Tiger, which was already out of breath, and did not speak, neatly slashing the head of the Nether Tiger with his long sword, looking for the precious beast spirit source.

In fact, after hunting spirit beasts for many days in a row, Yun Xuan also had questions in his heart, spirit beasts are also flesh and blood living beings, why should they be so cruel, this idea has always troubled Yun Xuan, who is kind by nature, so that Yun Xuan did not hunt any spirit beasts in those days, but the cat practiced the strong body martial arts selected from the Xuan Pavilion in a cave.

It wasn't until that day, when Yun Xuan went out to collect wild fruits, that he saw a group of fire wolves rounding up a few second-order red-eyed Ahuizotls that he had an epiphany. After the fire wolf captured the red-eyed Ahuizotl, he did not immediately kill the eater, but brutally played with the red-eyed Ahuizotl. At that moment, Yun Xuan suddenly understood that this heaven and earth originally followed the law of the law of the jungle, if you don't hurt it, it doesn't mean that there will be no other people and other spirit beasts that won't hurt it, looking at the eyes of the leading red-eyed Ahuizotl desperately watching his "family" die tragically at the hands of the enemy, Yun Xuan also understands that only when he is strong can he truly protect it.

After this incident, Yun Xuan also unloaded the burden in his heart and continued to start his cultivation path, he wanted to be strong, he wanted to protect the people he wanted to protect. However, since then, when Yun Xuan hunted spirit beasts, he could kill them with one blow, and Yun Xuan would try his best to kill them with one blow to avoid those creatures from suffering more.

After collecting the beast spirit source, Yun Xuan stripped off the tiger bone that could be refined, put it into the storage token, stood up and clapped his hands with satisfaction.

Suddenly, there was a sound of agitation in the deep forest in the distance, Yun Xuan frowned, thought for a moment, and still ran in the direction where the sound came from.

"Oops~~ I didn't provoke you, why do you have to trouble me!" A cyan figure shuttled through the forest in embarrassment, with heavy footsteps behind him, unhurriedly following the cyan figure.

With an extremely unpleasant hissing sound, the cyan figure suddenly found that the originally hard ground under his feet was like a quagmire at this moment, and his body sank down in an instant. Knock knock to hear the sound of swift and heavy footsteps behind me. The cyan figure's face changed, hissing, a fishy smell wafted from the back of his head, and the cyan figure turned his head with difficulty, and what appeared in his eyes was a thick tongue like a snake hyacinth. Looking at the disgusting scarlet tongue, the cyan figure only felt a surge of qi and blood surging up his head, ahhh

"It's heaven...... Am I dead......" The long eyelashes trembled slightly, and a pair of glass-colored eyes slowly opened.

"You are so bold, you are wandering around alone in this Xuanyin Mountain Range in the middle of the night. A man's voice came into his ears, and the pair of glass-colored pupils instantly dilated, and he got up from the ground with a wheel, staring vigilantly at the man who spoke.

"Who are you?!"

"Who am I? If I weren't nearby, you'd have fed the lizards. The man who spoke glared at the other party angrily.

The man who spoke was naturally Yun Xuan, and the man who was saved by Yun Xuan was naturally the cyan figure who fled in the forest in front of him.

"Yes...... Did you save me?" stared at Yun Xuan with glass-colored eyes, the person in front of him was dressed in a navy blue robe, with long hair flowing behind him, his facial features were handsome and blushing, and his black eyes looked so bright under the light of the fire.

After looking at the person in front of him, he didn't look like some treacherous person, and the owner of the glass-colored pupils lowered his guard a little, and said softly: "Thank you for saving me......"
