Chapter Seventy-Six: Coming to the Deserted City
"What is this?" Xiao Che forcibly pressed the negative emotions in his heart. He wanted to reach out and touch it, but Zhou Xiaodie didn't give him the opportunity and swooped his hand back.
"Don't touch it, if it does, it won't do you any good, because it's because I've gained the dark attribute, and because of it, my character has become what it is. Zhou Xiaodie's eyes were a little lonely.
"Are you saying that your dark attribute is given by this tattoo?" Xiao Che asked in surprise.
"It didn't belong to me, so to speak, but to my mother. I wasn't born with dark attributes, but my body was able to accommodate them. Speaking of his mother, Zhou Xiaodie was a little sad.
Seeing Zhou Xiaodie like this, Xiao Che stopped asking, after all, everyone has everyone's secrets, if Zhou Xiaodie wants to say, then even if he doesn't ask, Zhou Xiaodie will say it.
Soon the two of them were back to the creek, and now the creek had opened the cage where the fox girl was kept, and let them out.
Seeing that Xiao Che and the others were back, Xiaoxi also walked quickly to Zhou Xiaodie's side.
"Thank you three for your rescue, we will repay them for saving their lives. The only Venerable Realm among the fox girls saluted Xiao Che and the three of them, and then the rest of the fox girls also saluted.
"Needless to say, for those wicked people before, anyone with a little conscience will not stand idly by. Xiao Che looked at Zhou Xiaodie, who didn't seem to have come out of her previous state before she spoke.
"Slave Yanzi, ungrateful announcement of name. This Venerable Realm Fox Girl said that she was about to worship again, but Xiao Che hurriedly stopped her.
At this time, these fox girls were staring at him, and the charm in their eyes made Xiao Che a little distracted, and a certain part of his body involuntarily reacted. Xiao Che hurriedly took a few deep breaths, which calmed him down, and he looked a little embarrassed.
Looking at Xiao Che's appearance as a big boy, many fox girls laughed out loud, and Yan Zi glared back at them, which made them quiet.
This is the first time Xiao Che has made a fool of himself, and he himself is a little embarrassed, although he quickly calmed down, he also secretly said in his heart, "The demon fox clan is naturally charming, and it can make people's hearts sway between a smile and a smile, and it really lives up to its reputation." ”
Zhou Xiaodie and Xiaoxi also saw Xiao Che's embarrassment, and both of them gave Xiao Che a blank look, but a certain adverse reaction in Xiao Che's body before was inadvertently seen by Zhou Xiaodie, which made her face red, but she was a little surprised to see Xiao Che calm down quickly.
After all, she knew that the charm of these fox girls was hard for men to resist. And Xiao Che was only affected at the beginning, and quickly calmed down, which in her opinion, Xiao Che's self-control ability is really terrifying.
It's not that Xiao Che is different from other men, it's just that the experience from childhood to adulthood has made Xiao Che know that it is very dangerous to be controlled. And Xiao Che would never put himself in such danger.
"Sister Yan Zi doesn't have to be like this, my name is Zhou Xiaodie, and my two friends are Xiao Che and Xiaoxi. Speaking of which, Zhou Xiaodie also generously informed the names of the three people.
"The grace of saving lives will never be forgotten, if there is anything Yan Zi can do, he will definitely go to the soup and fire, and he will not give up. Yan Zi's words were quite chivalrous.
"Now that the sisters have been out of trouble, it is better to inform the elders of the clan about this matter as soon as possible, I am afraid that this matter is not so simple, and there must be stronger forces behind it against the demon fox clan. So Zhou Xiaodie and the fox girls left their contact information and said goodbye to each other.
Before leaving, Xiao Che found that many fox girls were looking at him, and the expressions with affection were self-evident. For monsters, the expression of emotions is much simpler and more direct than that of humans. This made Xiao Che have a good impression of the demon fox clan.
Previously, Xiaoxi captured a lot of martial artists from the Hetian Realm alive, and after some interrogation, he learned that there was a stronger force behind them, which made the three people who didn't want to cause trouble leave this place quickly.
And those Heaven Realm martial artists, all of them were handed over to Yan Zi and a group of fox girls, they did not kill these people, but brought them back to the clan and handed them over to the elders of the clan to dispose of.
After all, there are stronger martial artists involved in this, and if these people are allowed to die easily, then it will be difficult to find out what is behind it. Since the other party dares to make a move against the demon fox clan, even if their strength is not as good as the demon fox clan, they will not be much different.
And they were able to know the route of action of the demon fox women so accurately, it was certain that someone was doing their internal response. If the matter is not thoroughly investigated, the harm will definitely be greater in the future.
Therefore, Yan Zi and the others secretly brought these people back to the clan and handed them over to the patriarch for disposal. After all, no matter what, the patriarch is the only one they can trust.
After separating from the fox girls, the speed of Xiao Che and the three of them increased greatly, and their routes became shorter. Originally, they had been selectively avoiding demon beasts along the way, but now they didn't need to. They got a token from Yan Zi's hand that could be unimpeded in the Demon Beast Realm.
This thing is a pass for humans who have a friendly relationship with monsters. As long as you don't encounter a bad demon beast with it, you won't encounter any danger.
Along the way, they passed through several demon beast tribes, all of which were unimpeded. This gave Xiao Che a deeper understanding of the status of the demon fox clan in the demon beast world.
From the mouths of other demon beasts, I learned that the demon fox clan belonged to the royal family in the demon beast world.
The royal family of the demon beast world, each of them has an extraordinary status, and they are not determined by any powerful family background like humans. It's just through strength. Whoever is strong is the king. No matter what kind of achievements your predecessors have, it doesn't matter to the monsters, they only see your own strength.
Of course, if it is like Xiao Che and the three of them, they have a life-saving grace for demon beasts. In the past, there was a weak human being who had a great kindness to the demon beast, and then after the demon beast became strong, he repaid his life-saving benefactor. Of course, there are also ungrateful monsters like the farmer and the snake.
In any case, it's better to have a simple and direct relationship with demon beasts.
It's not that they're not smart, it's that the growth environment of the monster beast determines their character, and the law of the jungle is the only rule of survival here. However, even in the Demon Beast Realm, there are some special examples. For example, the well-known public leopard in the demon beast world. Originally, it was just an ordinary beast, the golden leopard. Because of good luck, I opened up my spiritual wisdom, and because of my good luck, when I opened my spiritual wisdom, I got the cultivation method against the heavens.
even made his wisdom rank among all races, so he also became the ancestor of the wisdom of demon beasts.
The cultivation method of demon beasts is different from that of the human race, and demon beasts are not like humans, even if they don't have some talent, they can rely on learning and practice, at most, because of insufficient qualifications and poor cultivation. Demon beasts are not, the cultivation of demon beasts is based on their own talents, and the cultivation methods that are born from it. In fact, this cultivation method is much better than the human cultivation method. Although demon beasts can only be cultivated in a seemingly single way.
In fact, this kind of cultivation that relies entirely on talent makes the extremely weak and extremely strong in the Demon Beast Realm extremely rare. Overall, there are a large number of demon beasts in the middle level. Terrans and demon beasts are almost opposite, the Terrans are the weakest most, the middle is second, and the strongest are the least, in the shape of a pyramid.
However, the more you cultivate to the extreme, the more difficult it is for the demon beast to cultivate and enter the realm than for the human race.
If the dragon clan and the four-elephant beast family are counted in the demon beasts, then the overall strength of the demon beast world is far beyond that of the human race.
The reason why the human race was able to develop rapidly was mainly due to the top powerhouses. Without their protection, the Terrans would have disappeared in a long time.
And the royal family among the demon beasts is the protector of hundreds of millions of demon beasts. Although these demon beasts also have internal battles, even bloodier and crueler than human battles, once they cultivate to the beast king, they are not only the strongest of the original race, but also have the responsibility to protect all the demon beasts. This is also the responsibility of all Beastmasters.
Knowing these Xiao Che is also associated with the human race. Aren't those Terran predecessors also giving shelter to the Terrans?
After all, no one can exist on their own.
It has also been recorded in history that there are the strongest people who have abandoned their own race, but none of them have a good end. With the collapse of their race, their situation has become very awkward. When they die, the race is completely extinct.
A lesson from the past, a teacher for the future.
After a long journey of half a month, Xiao Che and the three of them were finally about to walk out of the Ancient Mountain Range. Everyone
This is a gathering place for human races and demon beasts on the edge of the Wild Ancient Mountain Range, called Deserted City. This is no ordinary gathering place, and according to Zhou Xiaodie, it can be said to be the largest gathering place where the Ancient Mountains and the Terran region live together.
This place is held by both Terrans and demon beasts. Deserted cities do not have city lords like other cities of the Terrans. Instead, there is a Desert City Presbyterian Church. In the Council of Elders, the elders of the human race and the demon beast clan are equally divided. Therefore, it is up to them to decide the affairs of the deserted city. They strictly divided the living quarters of the deserted city into two parts, one side of the monsters and the other side of the humans. But they set most of the deserted city as a free zone. There are a lot of shops here. Both humans and monsters can come here.
Even Hualou is a demon beast and a human. This dazzled Xiao Che.
The way to get into town is very simple, just go in and don't need any credentials. It's just that all the rules of the deserted city are engraved on the city gate, and the people and monsters who enter the city must strictly abide by them, otherwise the light ones will be expelled from the deserted city, and the heavy ones will be directly executed.
Generally speaking, those who are directly executed are guilty of great misfortune. Because of the strict regulations and strong enforcement, the security of the deserted city is the best among all the cities where there are mixed with beasts. Deserted Castle is also the most popular.
Xiao Che has gained insight today. After following Zhou Xiaodie into the city, the three of them came to the Zhou family's station here. It is a nine-storey classical building. It occupies a very large area. Looking at this large building, Xiao Che sighed in his heart, this week's home is really not simple here.
"Is Elder Shi here?" Zhou Xiaodie obviously wasn't here for the first time. As she spoke, she showed the unique bloodline mark of the Zhou family. Soon someone went to call Elder Shi in Zhou Xiaodie's mouth.
"It's the eldest lady, the eldest lady is back, oops, this is the creek. Who is this?" Soon Xiao Che saw an old man coming out of it.
This Elder Shi has a childish face, giving people a feeling of fairy wind and bones, Xiao Che knows at a glance that this old man is not simple. The people who could make him unable to see the cultivation were those supreme realm powerhouses. And looking at this old appearance, even in the Supreme Realm, he is not weak.
Such a person, just serving as an elder here. This gave Xiao Che a new estimate of the strength of the Zhou family.
"I've just returned from the Aragu Mountains, and I'm here to bring the creek back. This is not Xiao Che, my friend. With that, Zhou Xiaodie introduced Xiao Che to Elder Shi.
Knowing that Xiao Che was Zhou Xiaodie's friend, Elder Shi couldn't help but think highly of Xiao Che. He knows what kind of character Zhou Xiaodie is, and Xiao Che can be said to be the first friend who can make her recognize.
Because of the influence of that mysterious tattoo, there are many negatives in Zhou Xiaodie's personality. It can even be very extreme at times. Of course, this is not her nature, it is all because of the influence of that tattoo. This matter is well known in the supreme realm of the Zhou family.
The head of the Zhou family, Zhou Xiaodie's father, also tried his best to find a way to resolve the tattoo, and tried many methods, but none of them worked. And that black tattoo is extremely weird. No matter how powerful a person is, as long as they are contaminated with a little breath, they will be unconsciously affected, so Zhou Xiaodie has not had many friends around her since she was a child.
Xiaoxi is arguably the only one who accompanies Zhou Xiaodie. I don't know why, as long as you don't touch the black tattoo, the creek is not affected. Now it seems that there is one more Xiao Che.
Zhou Xiaodie informed Elder Shi about the Demon Fox Clan, and Elder Shi frowned when he heard this. He knew that the seriousness of the matter was far beyond Zhou Xiaodie's imagination.
Soon, Elder Shi arranged rooms for the three of them, one for each of them and next to each other. So the three of them settled here.
Elder Shi quickly reported the matter to Zhou Xiaodie's father, the head of the Zhou family.
Soon Zhou Xiaodie's father gave instructions to let Elder Shi take charge of this matter, and Zhou Xiaodie fully cooperated.
After receiving instructions from her father, Zhou Xiaodie also chooses to accept this task. Xiao Che was not in a hurry to leave the deserted city. He naturally joined. He had just arrived here, and he was not familiar with the place, and there were many things that he needed to know more about.
And he got acquainted with the deserted city first, and it would be easier for him to go to other places later. Besides, he somehow became more and more reluctant to part with Zhou Xiaodie.
Although it was said that Elder Shi was in charge of this matter, Zhou Xiaodie still had the ability to lead the team alone as a Venerable Master Realm, so Elder Shi assigned a lot of people to Zhou Xiaodie, including three Venerable Master Realm and twelve Venerable Realm.
This lineup can be called luxurious.
If you have this power in your hands in Sark, you won't be able to fight to that extent against those enemies who come to attack.
These fifteen people, plus Zhou Xiaodie, Xiao Che, and Xiaoxi, are a total of eighteen.
These people have naturally heard of Xiaoxi, she is the adopted daughter of the Zhou family. Although she only had the cultivation of the Venerable Realm, no one dared to underestimate her. Needless to say, Zhou Xiaodie can reach the middle stage of the Venerable Master Realm at such an age. It can be said that it is a demon. Although the other four Venerable Masters are all in the late stage of the Venerable Master Realm, if it is a life-and-death battle, they may not be able to defeat Zhou Xiaodie, who broke out with all his might. And Zhou Xiaodie is the eldest lady, so they naturally respect her very much.
Xiao Che is different. These few Venerable Masters don't look down on Xiao Che very much. It's just because of Xiao Che's cultivation.
Although Xiao Che's current cultivation is in the middle of the Venerable Realm, it is nothing to these Venerable Realms. Even in the Zhou family, there are not a few people who have reached the middle stage of the Venerable Realm at Xiao Che's age, which naturally does not make the four people of the Venerable Master Realm treat him well.
They only said a few polite words to Xiao Che for the sake of Zhou Xiaodie's face.
These are all in the eyes of Fluttershy and Creek. She naturally wanted to say something fair for Xiao Che. Otherwise, they despise Xiao Che like this, and aside from Xiao Che and her being friends, it will not be good for teamwork in the future.
"Xiao Che is a genius, his body style can be said to be unique in the world, I have grown so big and it is the first time I have seen such a magical body style. Zhou Xiaodie did not hesitate to praise Xiao Che.
"Oh, the eldest lady is exaggerating. How powerful can he be with a Venerable Realm Body. One of the Venerable Masters was noncommittal to Zhou Xiaodie's words. Although there was only one person who spoke, judging by the expressions of the other two Venerable Masters, they all had the same thoughts as him.
"In this way, the three of you go up together, if you can catch Xiao Che, no, just to find out his location, I shouldn't have said anything before. If you can't find him, how about everyone working together and getting along amicably in the future?" Zhou Xiaodie looked at the three Venerable Masters, if she didn't know Xiao Che before, she would definitely be in the same realm as these three Venerable Masters.
"Miss, you're kidding, he still needs three of us in the Venerable Realm, only one person is needed. The Venerable Master who spoke just now said disdainfully of Zhou Xiaodie's words.
"I say three, three. Zhou Xiaodie also shows her nature as a witch. Hearing Zhou Xiaodie say this, the Venerable Master naturally didn't dare to say anything more.
Xiao Che also understands Zhou Xiaodie's hard work, and of course he will not live up to it.
Under the attention of everyone, Xiao Che and the three respected teachers competed. Originally, Xiao Che didn't like this kind of boring competition, but he understood what Zhou Xiaodie meant, mainly because Zhou Xiaodie didn't want him to be despised by the respected teacher realm and bear such grievances.
Xiao Che also knew very well that if he suppressed these three masters, not only would he get along with them much better in the future, but Zhou Xiaodie's authority would also be established from then on. That's good for a team.
If the people are not aligned, it will definitely be a disaster for the team. Therefore, Xiao Che had no reason to refuse.
No one said to start, and there was no need to make any preparations, Xiao Che appeared to use the method of no trace and disappeared in place.
I saw that when Xiao Che disappeared, the faces of the three Venerable Masters who were originally contemptuous all changed in the later stage. They found that they really couldn't perceive Xiao Che's breath at all.
Soon they tried their best, but they still couldn't find Xiao Che. So they were shocked. Eventually, they admit defeat.
The next moment, Xiao Che appeared. This scene not only shocked the three Venerable Masters realm, but even Elder Shi, who was watching from the sidelines, was also shocked.
Since then, no one here dares to despise Xiao Che.
