Chapter 107: Howling Moon
Cangyue Commercial Bank also has a large-scale branch in Zhentian Sect, which not only trades with the disciples of Zhentian Sect, but also radiates the surrounding small and medium-sized sects and Wanxian City.
It is no exaggeration to say that all the materials of the Cangyue Commercial Bank in the Yannan region are operated and collected in this place, the reason why this is so is that on the one hand, it is to make good friends with Zhentianzong, and on the other hand, because of the protection of Zhentianzong, the goods of Cangyue Commercial Bank will be safer.
However, in this way, the number of personnel in Cangyue Commercial Bank here reached nearly a thousand, and when Feng Ruo hurried back to look for Li Dan, he asked more than ten people in a row but didn't know who Li Dan was!
In desperation, Feng Ruo had no choice but to visit Wu Jian's master Xiaoyue again, because more than 20 years ago, the demon fire was brought back by Wu Jian from the Five Elements Realm, so the later situation, that Xiaoyue should know something!
The place where the refining master Xiaoyue lived was very easy to find out, it was a manor at the foot of Jietian Peak, backed by a shady cliff, there was no sunlight for most of the day, and all the trees around the manor were more than a hundred years old!
That ghost tax wood is extremely widely used in the immortal cultivation world, so although it is gloomy, the major immortal cultivation sects and even the major commercial houses will plant it in large quantities, and the manor where Xiaoyue is located is such a place to grow ghost tax wood!
However, under normal circumstances, no cultivator wants to live in this place, because even ordinary spirit beasts will avoid it, so from this point of view, it can be seen that this Xiaoyue's personality is extremely strange.
After walking along the bluestone path in this ghost tax forest for a while, he saw a very large manor, the layout of this entire manor was extremely luxurious, if it weren't for the eerie aura exuded by the surrounding ghost wood, Feng Ruo would even suspect that this manor was a beautiful royal garden in the mortal world!
For this situation, Feng Ruo has heard a little gossip, it is said that although that Xiaoyue is a cultivator in the early stage of Jindan, he has never been able to this realm, and it is estimated that he has no hope of advancing to the next realm in this life, so his temper and personality are extremely strange.
Of course, no one cares about this, as long as Xiaoyue Energy continues to refine better quality magic weapons!
Coming to the gate of the manor, which can be called tall and magnificent, Feng Ruo just wanted to step forward and knock on the door, the blood-red door was opened with an arm like a skeleton, and then an old lady who couldn't be older and couldn't be thinner appeared in front of Feng Ruo, to be honest, this old lady like a skeleton really complemented this ghostly environment1
"Uh! The disciple of the Sword Heart Academy of the Heavenly Sect in Xiazhen has come to visit Master Xiaoyue, please ask the old man for a recommendation!. Feng Ruo was stunned," he said quickly.
The old lady looked up and down, left, right, and right for the whole time of Feng Ruo's hot tea, and saw that his scalp was numb, and he was full of cold hair!
"Come in!. Just when Feng Ruo was about to flee, the old lady finally said in a hoarse voice, and then closed the blood-red door with a bang, and the strength was so great that Feng Ruo couldn't believe it.
Following the skeleton-like old lady all the way through the courtyard, Feng Ruo couldn't help but look around, but the more he looked at him, the more furious he became, "Because although the attic pavilions around here are extremely luxurious, there is no figure in sight, and it is as quiet as death, without even a trace of wind!"
It's just that these pavilions and pavilions are still so clean, there is not even a trace of dust, and as for the popularity, there is no at all! If Feng Ruo is sure, this kind of environment without a trace of popularity, if ordinary mortals live here, within three days, they will inevitably die violently!
Secretly shook his head, Feng Ruo really couldn't imagine what kind of person that Xiaoyue was, such a manor with thousands of acres of land was only inhabited by two people, and it was still in the ghost forest, so it was strange if there were no ghosts!
After walking for a long time, Feng Ruo was led into a golden hall by the skeletal old lady.
"Please wait a moment!".
After making him a cup of spiritual tea, the old lady just said this, turned around and left, and for a while, the hall was as quiet as a ghost domain!
"What the hell! there is such a ghost place at the foot of this Heavenly Peak!"
Staring at the so-called spiritual tea with green juice in front of him, Feng Ruo couldn't help but complain, of course, he didn't dare to touch that cup of spiritual tea!,
After waiting in the living room for an hour, Feng Ruo saw a woman wearing a veil, "Xiuwei should be in the early stage of Jindan, walked in, but he didn't expect this Xiaoyue to be a woman!"
"What are you looking for ?... me?"
Despite the veil, Feng Ruo could still feel the cold gaze that rejected people thousands of miles away, and it seemed that this Xiaoyue should be very dissatisfied with her being disturbed.
"Ugh!. Feng Ruo settled down, and then hugged his fists and said: "I have seen my predecessors, Feng Ruo, a disciple of Tianzong in Xiazhen, took the liberty to come to the door today to disturb, just for an old incident in the past twenty years, when the disciple Wu Jian was eaten by fire poison, he needed to go to the Snow Spirit Pool in Snow Goose City to resolve it, and he happened to participate in that escort mission, presumably the truth of that matter was already known to the seniors!"
"You're the one who discovered the fire? Hearing Feng Ruo's explanation, Xiao Yue's cold attitude softened a little, "Isn't this matter already over? ”
"It's over?What did the senior say about this?At that time, the demon fire escaped..." Feng Ruo was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked.
"Escaped, wasn't that demonic fire extinguished by you?..." That Xiaoyue also seemed to be a little stunned, puzzled.
"How could it be, I was escaped by the demon fire that day, I thought that Li Dan, the guard of your firm, would report this matter, and in addition, I have been in retreat for more than 20 years, so I don't know what happened next, is this the result of what Li Dan said?. Feng Ruo was more and more shocked, how could Li Dan say that the demon fire had been extinguished by himself, you must know that he was so scared during that time!
"I don't know about this matter, that's what Li Dan said to me that day, I originally wanted to come to thank you, but then it was delayed for various reasons, so I haven't been able to practice it, but since you are here today, my poor apprentice will pay you back for him that day! Na Xiaoyue said, and casually took out a Qiankun bag containing the Five Elements Stone and handed it to Feng Ruo.
"Forget it!. Feng Ruo shook his head and didn't pick it up, "I came to find my predecessor today, mainly to ask where Li Dan is now? Why did I inquire around, but no one knew his whereabouts? Also, I think the monsters that have appeared on the edge of the Stacked Mist Mountains recently are likely to be related to that demonic fire...
"Li Dan! he was sent to the Five Elements Realm on a mission shortly after returning from the Yanbei region that day, but the bad thing is that in less than three months, he died in an attack by a demon team, and now it has been nearly twenty years, so you naturally can't ask about his whereabouts!. That Xiaoyue said in a relaxed tone.
"Dead!".
Feng Ruo was taken aback, although he had already seen life and death, he still felt a little surprised, Li Dan actually died like this, this is too strange, right? Also, why did he say that the demon fire had been extinguished by himself?
Feng Ruozheng was thinking so, but Xiaoyue said impatiently: "Okay! That's it, you don't have to be too nervous, there are so many monsters in the Stacked Mist Mountain Range, even our immortal cultivation realm can't kill them, what you said may just be an ordinary monster doing trouble, there's no need to make a fuss! I still have to cultivate, ghost woman, send off guests..."
Hearing Xiaoyue sending off guests, Feng Ruo had no choice but to turn around and say goodbye, all the way out of this ghostly huge courtyard, his mind was still a little messy, Li Dan was actually dead, doesn't this mean that there is no proof of death about that demonic fire?
Feng Ruozheng was thinking like this, and suddenly a few white sensen's skeleton palms appeared under his feet without warning, grabbed him directly, and then dragged him to the ground vigorously!
And almost at the same time, the surrounding ghost locust forest roared repeatedly, and then at least hundreds of black beasts rushed towards Feng Ruo!
"Oops!".
Feng Ruo secretly screamed in his heart, and the mana was quickly injected into the Cloud Treading Combat Boots, and suddenly a large cloud of silver light appeared from the Cloud Walking Combat Boots, directly bounced those skeleton arms away!
And immediately after, Feng Ruo shouted violently, and the Phantom Sword instantly turned into a cyan wind, swept forward, and in the blink of an eye, it cut off the dozen or so black beasts that rushed to the front!
But what made Feng Ruo feel unbelievable was that after these alien beasts were cut off, they didn't spurt out blood, but kept squirming, just in the blink of an eye, they synthesized a new alien beast again!
"Damn! It's actually a demon in the Five Elements Realm!. "Although Feng Ruo has never seen this strange situation, he doesn't know how many times he has heard of it, because the demons in the demon world can be reborn three times!
"Humph!".
With a cold snort, Feng Ruo immediately shot out a defensive spirit rune to protect himself, and then his mind went out of his body and instantly transferred to his Xuanhuo clone!
In just an instant, a raging flame of dozens of zhang in size suddenly erupted from the phantom sword!
"Die, die!".
Although he couldn't speak, Feng Ruo shouted in his heart, and then wrapped around the Phantom Sword, he swooped towards the nearly a hundred black beasts!
This body of his is the purest Xuanhuo composition, and he doesn't need any tricks at all, just hit it with all his strength, and those black beasts will instantly scream and turn into ashes!
And just when Feng Ruo used this method to kill nearly half of the black beasts, a martyrdom sword light suddenly roared out from Xiaoyue's manor!
"Who is the wicked! dare to spread wild in front of my door!".
With Xiao Yue's loud shout, the sword light as bright as the sun and the moon instantly wiped out the remaining black beasts!
Seeing Xiaoyue's move, Feng Ruo hurriedly withdrew his Xuanhuo clone back to the Phantom Sword, and then in the mist of returning to the sheath, his mind returned to his body!
