Chapter Eighty-Nine: Escape
"Senior, this is Huang Xi Anshan, please raise your hand and let me take a breath. โ
The three-zhang demon tiger is difficult to speak, and the whole body is in close contact with the ground, and the taste is really uncomfortable. After the coercion disappeared, his feet trembled and straightened up, the tiger stripes on his forehead had long been discarded by it, his front and back feet were bent, and he lowered his head slightly and looked at the two people in front of him, full of deference.
"Huang Xi Anshan, Tiger Demon, do you know the closest empire to this?"
"Senior, I have never left this small mountain range, and I don't know..."
A pair of big eyes stared at Yin Yue, who was dressed in white soft armor in front of him, and saw that her complexion changed slightly, "Senior, I know a fox demon, he is well-informed, he must know." Now, I'll take you there. โ
"Kitsune?, but you'd better not play tricks. โ
"Two seniors, you come to my back to save you from fatigue. โ
Yin Yue raised her eyes to look at the tiger demon, but she didn't refuse, the two of them climbed on the back of the tiger demon one after another, sat cross-legged on it, and their slender hair covered their legs.
"Xiaolan, where do you want to go?"
"Let's go to the Imperial City to live for a while, and also inquire about Elder Linxi's situation at this time. โ
The tiger demon stood up, a long tiger tail slightly curled, his body arched slightly, his body ran forward, the yellow and black stripes moved among the trees like scattered broken light, and the cyan trees fell backwards. The two people sitting on the back of the tiger demon performed a fixed body technique, and began to enjoy the surrounding scenery.
A blue and blue bird spread its wings, but it fell straight downward, and it fluttered violently. A pair of white and tender hands held it up, and the autumn water eyes looked at it, so that it couldn't help but calm down, it saw a calm lake, blue lake water, white clouds, golden swimming fish, very beautiful, it seemed to rain a little bite, so that it was hooked with a layer of mist.
Nangong Min put it on his left hand, stroked the feathers on its head with his right hand, saw that it still had wide eyes, chuckled at the corners of his mouth, flicked his right hand, woke up the stupid bird, and threw it into the air. A gust of wind came from behind, turning it over, and when it was close to the ground, it fluttered its wings and flew upwards.
Two hours later, in front of a cave, the tiger demon stopped its form, and a tiger roared that shook the leaves on both sides.
"Senior, this is the fox demon's cave. โ
The filamentous divine consciousness spread out, stretching inward, and a long red fox demon slowly walked out, its sharp mouth opening slightly.
"Brother Tiger, how can there be such a Yaxing today. โ
When he saw Nangong Min and the two on the back of the tiger demon, his black eyes were humanized and showed a hint of flattery, and his body turned into a handsome young man, dressed in a cyan robe, and waved towards the two.
"Senior, I don't know what to do with Xiaohu? Xiaohu told him with all his might. โ
"Do you know the empire around this mountain range?"
"From here to the east, 800 kilometers away, there is a small city called Baqu, and at the same time, it is also the border of Heqiu Kingdom. โ
"Senior, at this moment, it's getting late, so you might as well go and sit inside. โ
The fox demon, after finishing speaking, turned towards the cave.
"Xinlan, there are guests visiting. โ
"Got it. โ
A pleasant, crisp voice came from within.
"Senior, please inside. โ
Nangong Min and Yin Yue flew down from the tiger's back, standing in front of the fox demon, the two of them walked inside, the entrance of the cave was about eight feet high, and there were bright gems hanging on the walls, shining with crystal luster and colorful.
This is a little girl's leisure decoration, which makes the seniors smile. โ
The fox demon walked in front and spoke softly, and behind the three of them, a big man, dressed in a tiger fur coat, was light and slow, very interesting. The four of them came inside, this is a living room, thirty zhang square, the ground is flat, a piece of mountain stone inlay, a smooth large stone slab as a table, seven or eight stone benches around the periphery, more than a dozen landscape calligraphy and paintings hung on the wall, but it looks elegant and quiet.
A girl in a long cyan dress is making tea, the light fragrance surrounds the living room, the girl's face is delicate, a few strands of hair are scattered on the forehead, walking, the skirt is swaying, and when the tea is full, she turns her head and lets a few people sit down.
Nangong Min and Yin Yue drank tea lightly and listened to the fox demon talk about the customs of Heqiu Kingdom.

"Now, Heqiu Country is not calm, it is located in the corner of the Jade Desolate Empire. The monks were in turmoil, and the civilians lost their voices. Fifteen years ago, the Jade Desolation Empire was calmer, and now I don't know what it looks like. โ
Nangong Min stared, the girl who was squatting and stroking the hair on the tiger demon's body, her small figure was sleeping on the side of the sleeping three-zhang tiger demon, it was really interesting, and she was slightly puzzled in her heart.
"Daoyou, she's a human being?"
"Xinlan was born to my deceased Terran wife, and she has been in human form since she was a child, and she is also considered a Terran. โ
"Senior, I don't know if I can exchange a book of cultivation exercises with you, and let the little girl embark on the path of cultivation. โ
The human race and the demon race have different muscles and veins, and there is a big difference in the cultivation methods, and the cultivation is half the effort.
The fox demon took out the storage bag on his waist, and a remnant apricot fruit appeared in the palm of his right hand, and the rainbow light flickered, adding a little fantasy to the living room. Residual apricot fruit, prefecture-level medium grade, refining the body, nourishing the body. He saw that Nangong Min and the others did not have the slightest greed in their eyes, and exhaled lightly.
A book appeared in Yin Yue's hand, and then, it flew towards the fox demon, writing the frost condensation gong on it, and the remnant apricot fruit flew out of the fox demon's hand. The fox demon picked up the frost condensation gong and put it in the storage bag, and after thanking Yin Yue, he continued to chat with the two, and his attitude towards the two was even more kind.
Frost condensation gong, ground-level lower grade, cultivation. It is more difficult to practice than ordinary exercises, and you need to endure the pain of frost, and your character will tend to be tough.
The sun sets again, and the yolk-like sun skims over the treetops.
The fox demon, the tiger demon and Xinlan watched Nangong Min and the two leave, and two hours later, a tiger roar resounded through the mountains and forests. After the fox demon walked away, he took out the frost condensation skill, looked at it carefully, and his eyes flashed with joy. This is a human exercise, and it is not suitable for demon cultivation, but he can still see and understand a thing or two, and after handing it over to Xinlan, he began to pack up his belongings and prepare to leave.
A big fiery fox carrying a young girl and a small white fox disappeared into the dense forest.
In the other direction, three figures walked towards the Jade Desolate Empire without hurry, one of them was tall, with a black robe, a dark eye looking forward, a pink peach forest, and a white-robed figure on his side fled forward, and a clear voice sounded.
"Old man Ling, if you are interested in going to the peach forest to have another drink, I will set the table first. โ
"I'll go find something to eat, and I'll be there in a minute. โ
Then, the cyan figure on Kang Ziqing's side disappeared, and when he said goodbye, he was already in the distance. Kang Ziqing put the slash on his waist into the dantian and flew towards the peach forest in front of him, the pink petals fluttering in the breeze. A scattered petal fell on the corner of his coat, clinging to it. A large and wide hand pinched it, placed it on the tip of its nose, felt the fragrance, and raised the corners of its mouth to fly it into the distance.
With a toe step, he leaped forward, jumping from treetop to treetop, landing in an empty space. A jade table, three jade piers, and three cups of jade dew rice flower wine. A figure in white leaned against the jade table, picked up a glass of sake, and drank it down. Kang Ziqing sat beside Elder Nobun, looking ahead, a cyan figure crossed a shallow stream, his body flashed, and he sat directly on the jade pier.
With a soft sound, a three-foot deer fell to the ground, and dots of red plum blossom marks fell evenly on the white skin. Red merlot, the grade is different, and the intelligence is higher. Cut out of the sheath, the black shadow flickered, a white and tender fawn took shape, with slightly closed eyes, a serene expression, dozens of spices flew towards the fawn, scattered on it. A large lotus leaf wrapped it up, and a pale red flame appeared to set it on fire.
After a stick of incense, on the jade table, a small deer was served. Elder Ling turned around, and a jade bottle flew out of the storage bag, and a drop of cyan liquid flew out and landed on the root of a peach tree. I saw that on the branches of the peach tree, the peach blossoms were falling, scattered, and the red peaches with huge faces were hanging all over the branches. Nine peaches landed on the jade table, and dozens of spirit fruits flew out of the storage bag, filling the jade table.
"Come, it's rare to have such a view, why not have a drink. โ
"There is wine today and drunk today, and the two of them are happy together. โ
Elder Ling drank all the sake in his hand, filled it for himself, drank three cups in a row, and a piece of venison the size of an arm was taken into his hand, and with the intention of wine, he tore off a large piece and swallowed it in his mouth.
Kang Ziqing was much more elegant, divided one hind leg in front of him into strips, put it in his mouth with a knife, and then drank the sake lightly to refine the source qi in the liquor. At the dantian, a golden yuan infant sat cross-legged, Lingxiu's eyes were open, his hands were slightly raised at the dantian, gathering towards the middle, and a gray ball was running between his hands, attracting the overflowing source qi and refining it quickly.
