Three days later, the flying boat finally arrived at the boundary of Yeosu County.

Along the way, Elder Yan told Yan Ning and the three of them a lot about the historical origin of the two sides, which also gave the three of them some new understanding of this history.

Speaking of the immortal cultivation forces in the Southern Regions, the distribution is also quite interesting.

About 3,000 years ago, the two sides of the righteous and the demons were not as clear as they are now, and various forces were also distributed in the Southern Regions.

But with a primordial infant old monster named Xuanyin Old Demon on the side of the Demon Gate, after advancing to the Yuanying Great Perfection, it set off a monstrous change. The two sides of the two sides were entangled and disputed for their own interests, and after several tragic battles, they took the Nu River, which flows through the entire southern region, as the boundary, and each of them acted as a formation.

To the west is the decent monks led by the Daomen, and to the east is the territory of the Demon Gate.

It was only after this division that the struggle for nearly a hundred years was stopped.

The entire Lishui County is tens of thousands of miles away, and there are many immortal sects and families of different sizes. Among them, the three major immortal cultivation families of Huang, Wu, and Jin are the most powerful, and each of the three major families has several Jindan monks.

You must know that in general, there are only one or two Jindan monks in smaller sects.

Lishui County and Guanshan County of Qi State, where the Demon Gate gathers, face each other across the river.

On weekdays, there are many fights between the two sides, and under the leadership of the forces led by the three major families, the two sides are also evenly matched.

It's just that this time, the Evil Moon Gate suddenly came in a big way, and Qiyao Valley and the Asking Love Sect followed closely behind, appearing in Lishui County with great fanfare. The three major families could not resist it, and they were defeated one after another, so they could only turn to the five major sects for help.

After Elder Yan and the three of Yan Ning arrived in Lishui County, he asked the three of them to go to Fengyan City to settle down to find out the news. After making an appointment for the time and place of the next meeting, he left alone, as if he had other important matters.

Fengyan City is a huge city of monks in Lishui County, which is controlled by the three major families.

There is a very mysterious place in this place called the Valley of Lost Souls.

The depths of the valley are shrouded in a kind of haze all year round, which can shield the five senses and disturb the mind, and monks with slightly lower cultivation will be trapped when they enter it. Only monks above the foundation can barely enter it, unaffected, but they can't go too deep.

Many high-ranking monks have come here to explore, and have come to the conclusion that this place is due to the strange topography, so that the condensation fog does not dissipate, and there is this strange scene. And the Valley of Lost Souls itself is not too special, otherwise it would not be the turn of the three major families to control this place.

There are several alchemy elixirs that are not common in the outside world in the Valley of Ecstasy, and there are many demon beasts in the valley. Therefore, this place attracted many monks to come to earn resources, and over time, Fengyancheng became an important distribution center for monks in Lishui County.

After the three of them arrived at Sealed Smoke City, they first changed into civilian clothes before entering the city.

After Luo Wenbai entered the city, he separated from Yan Ning and the others, saying that they were going to find out the news separately.

Yan Ning and Qin Qing walked around the city, and after a general understanding of the situation in the city and the distribution of forces, they stopped under an attic called Juxian Tower.

The attendant at the door was a monk on the second floor of qi refining, and he saw that Yan Ning and the others had extraordinary bearing and profound mana. I didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly introduced the two distinguished guests to the top floor where only VIPs can be stationed.

As soon as they reached the top floor, the two attracted the attention of everyone here.

Yan Ning himself is delicate and handsome, and his expression is free and flying. Coupled with the reason for the exercises, it gives people a bland and friendly feeling. Qin Qing beside him is even more like a snow lotus, with the same skin as jade, with a proud coldness, it is really cold and glamorous.

The two seemed to be accustomed to this kind of scrutiny, so they ordered a pot of spiritual tea and sat down.

At this time, Yan Ning carefully looked at the situation on the top floor.

The platform on the top floor is hundreds of zhang square, giving people a feeling of being quite spacious, and you can see the situation around the attic at a glance.

Five or six tables were full of people, most of them were foundation building cultivators, and only a few Qi refining cultivators were in between. It is not difficult to see from their respective costumes that there are many people who are disciples of the five major sects. There are also monks like Yan Ning who have changed their outfits and can't see their heads for the time being.

At this time, a voice of conversation came from a table in the distance: "Senior brother, you said that we have been here for several days." These various rumors are flying all over the sky, making people more and more confused. I think these three major families are really hardened, so I won't give you an explanation, and I won't come out to clarify it!"

The one who spoke was a monk in the early stage of foundation building wearing the costume of the Red Flame Sect.

The man had red hair, a rough face, and a thick resentment in his tone.

The man he called his senior brother was a middle-aged monk with a black face in the middle of foundation building, and he saw the monk reply unhurriedly: "At this time, the more clarification it seems, the more it seems that it wants to cover up, and the three major families are not fools, so they naturally will not do such a thankless task." As for the rumors, just listen to them, and don't take them seriously. When the lid is no longer tightly covered, it will naturally be lifted. Junior brother, don't be impatient!"

"I just can't get used to seeing the three major families like this, obviously I was bullied by others. We came to help, but they looked secretive, and I think this is clearly not taking our five major factions into account. In my opinion, we have to teach them a lesson, so that they know how to do it!" the red-haired man said through gritted teeth.

"Hey, hey, this is really amazing! I think your Chiyan Sect is really powerful, and you want to dominate Lishui County. A foundation building early stage monk sitting at the table next to him wearing the costume of the Golden Yang Sect suddenly spoke up.

The tone of this man's voice was quite ironic.

The Jinyang Sect and the Chiyan Sect are adjacent to each other, and the two factions have always had a disagreement for many years, and they have not seen each other with swords on weekdays.

Most of the monks of the Jinyang Sect are sword cultivators, and most of their abilities are on this sword. Moreover, this sect of sword cultivation is also different from other sword cultivation, not only to use its own mana to cultivate the sword, but also to use the body as a frame and carry the sword on the back, so as to enhance the connection between people and swords.

So away from home, it's easy to recognize.

Most of the monks of the Red Flame Sect are mainly based on fire attribute exercises, and most of them are people with hot tempers. Most of the sword cultivators are sharp, and when the people of these two sects meet together, they will inevitably compete with each other, and even fight each other. Of course, those monks who have good mana and heart are obviously not among them.

Hearing the taunts of the Jinyang Sect, the red-haired man suddenly pulled out, and said loudly with angry eyes: "Bah... That kid! How good can you people from the Jinyang Sect be? The embroidery needle dance is beautiful, and this mouth is even more neat! In the end, you are not at a loss to sit here?"

"Nonsense! I, Jinyangzong, have always been good friends with the Wu family, so naturally I am .......," a girl about fifteen or sixteen years old in Jinyang, who seemed to be dissatisfied with the red-haired man's unreasonable slander of Jinyangzong, retorted in a coquettish voice.

"Shut up!" a thin mid-foundation building monk from the Jinyang Sect interrupted the girl's words sharply.

Then he looked at the red-haired man of the Chiyan Sect and said slowly: "Qian Daoyou is really bright in his heart! Whoever wants to say that Qian Daoyou is a reckless man in the future is really visionless." ”

When the red-haired monk surnamed Qian saw that this emaciated monk of the Jinyang Sect came out to answer, he seemed to be a little jealous of the other party, and sat down stupidly. It's a pity that the girl just now couldn't finish the rest of the words.

Only then did the girl from the Golden Yang Sect realize that she was being provoked, her little face turned red with anger, and she kept rubbing her skirt, as if she was venting her anger.

As if to divert the attention of the people present, the emaciated monk saluted Yan Ning and said, "The two Daoists look quite faced, I don't know which sect they are high disciples? "There is a lot of smugness in the words.

Seeing that someone took the initiative to ask, Yan Ning replied with a smile: "It turned out to be Zhong Daoyou." In the next surname, my sister and I came out to travel on the orders of the teacher. Passing by here, I saw that it was quite lively, so I wanted to come and see it for a long time. ”

The monk surnamed Zhong saw that Yan Ning and the two of them had the foundation building and cultivation at such a young age, although the words were unknown, but they must have come from an extraordinary way. Especially the female cultivator, her appearance is only seen in her life!

Make up your mind to make friends with him and find out what is real and what is true.

Then he said eagerly: "My brothers and sisters and I have been in this Yancheng for some time, if you want to find out some news, you might as well come over and talk about it." I think the two of you have just arrived here, and it saves the two of you from being misled by those rumors. ”

"Thank you Zhong Daoyou for the invitation, it's just that Senior Sister Xia likes to be quiet, so it's inconvenient to bother you. Yan Ning declined the invitation with a polite smile.

Seeing that Yan Ning refused directly, Brother Zhong couldn't continue to say anything. However, the girl from the Jinyang Sect probably thought that Yan Ning was a little uninformed, so she actually refused the invitation, and looked at Yan Ning with a little resentment.

At this time, a table of monks in the distance was not affected by the movement here, and talked in a low voice about the current situation.

The content of the conversation between the few people was not important, and there was no mutual transmission, and most of the monks sitting there could hear some of it.

"Zhang Daoyou, there have been a lot of people in this Yancheng recently. I'm afraid that your pill shop is making a lot of money again, right?"

"Brother Lin, you're laughing. At present, there are a lot more people, but the price of this raw material has risen so much! Now the section of the road between Fengyan City and Lost Soul Valley has no means, and ordinary monks really dare not go. Taking advantage of the fact that the three major families are now shrinking into the city, those scattered cultivation things outside are becoming more and more unscrupulous!"

"That's true. Not only the casual cultivators, but now the demon monks outside are also in and out of the Fang Market outside the Lost Soul Valley in a grand manner, without any concealment. If you don't agree with each other, you can do it directly, and the means are really ruthless!"

"Yes, since all kinds of rumors have spread in the market, there has been no stop. I don't know if those masters of the five major sects can shock these people when they come, if they continue to make trouble like this, it will be us who will lose Yancheng and the entire Lishui County. ”

Yan Ning listened to the small talk of these people, and felt that the current situation in this smoke city was not only weird, but also the personnel were mixed. Knowing that Senior Sister doesn't care about the world on weekdays, but she has had a delicate mind since she was a child, she asked in a small voice that was a little puzzled: "Senior Sister, why do you say these three major families are acting like this?"

Qin Qing glanced at Yan Ning and did not answer immediately.

Feeling the fragrance of the spiritual tea in his hand, he closed his eyes and thought for a while, before he whispered: "If you find a treasure, but you are not strong enough to keep it for yourself, then you can only ask someone to come and help." But the strength of the person who came is far above you, and you will be afraid that the treasure will be swallowed by the person who came, so you can only call more people. ”

"After muddying the waters, maybe you can still take the initiative in it. Even if you can't fish in troubled waters in the end, you can at least get a piece of the pie, which is better than being served directly by someone. ”

"I don't know the exact reason, so I can only guess out of thin air. But it's probably just these intrigues that you come and go, you don't have to care too much, and it will come out when the time comes. ”

Qin Qing's voice is gentle and cold, very beautiful. This attitude is more like an inconsequential spectator, staring coldly at everything in front of him.

After listening to Qin Qing's metaphor, Yan Ning had to admire her senior sister's unique vision, and she suddenly became enlightened for a while.

After tasting a pot of tea, I saw that there was no more valuable news to inquire about. Yan Ning proposed to go to the Fang Market in the Valley of Lost Souls to join in the fun, Qin Qing of course had no choice, and the two got up and left.

What Yan Ning didn't know was that from the moment he stepped out of the door, he had always fantasized about practicing freely, and finally embarked on a blood-colored road full of thorns.
