Qin Ke didn't know when Xue Ning and them left, just like they came quietly, and by the time Qin Ke looked behind him in Wanling Valley now, there was no trace of them there.

Out of the Valley of Ten Thousand Souls, outside is the territory of the Nebula Empire, although there are still many of his friends in the Nebula Empire, but this time he did not go back, but quietly avoided the Nebula garrison stationed outside the Valley of All Souls.

Although Qin Ke's cultivation in the soul realm is not high, with the help of Spirit Fox Xiaobai, if he wants not to attract attention, he can still do it easily.

"Where are you going?" Lying on Qin Ke's shoulder, Linghu Xiaobai asked with curiosity.

Qin Ke's Dao has not yet reached the Spirit Lord Realm, and he can't use the Spirit Command Technique at all, if he wants to walk back to the North Xuanmen on a pair of legs, even if it is a demon beast like Xiaobai, he feels terrifying when he thinks about it.

Just as Linghu Xiaobai thought, after coming out of the Valley of Ten Thousand Souls, Qin Ke also had a trace of confusion in his heart, although it was a rather irrational decision to walk back to the North Xuanmen, he still subconsciously walked towards the north.

For a long time, Ye Chen's existence has given Qin Ke a great sense of security, his self-confidence, his strength, everything is inseparable from Ye Chen, but now that he has lost Ye Chen's protection, Qin Ke will inevitably feel a little panicked in his heart.

However, there are pros and cons to everything, although he lost Ye Chen's protection, Qin Ke was fully aware of his dependence on Ye Chen, so he greatly neglected his realm cultivation.

The cultivation of the soul realm may be barely able to be called in the Nebula Empire, but after seeing the other young masters of the Four Kingdoms and the Three Sects, Qin Ke does not feel that the cultivation of the soul realm has anything to be proud of, during this time, those people of the same age as him, which is not the realm of the Spirit Three Statues, compared to them, Qin Ke's cultivation is really not enough.

Although the territory of the Nebula Empire was not large, in order not to attract attention, it took Qin Ke a few days to come to the very edge of the Nebula Empire's territory.

Yingyue Village, the outermost small village of the Nebula Empire's territory, the village is not big, there is a small river behind it, it is said that whether it is spring, summer, autumn or winter, the moon in the sky will be reflected from the small river every night, not to mention the beautiful reflection, the white moonlight will also illuminate the entire village, looking like a fairyland.

Although Qin Ke had never been here, he had heard some legends here, but what puzzled him was that the originally quaint and quiet village seemed to be a little lively at the moment, and before entering the village, Qin Ke could hear the noise in the village.

Curious, I walked in, and saw that in the open space in the middle of the village, many people were gathering together, and an elderly man was surrounded by the crowd in the center.

"Don't worry, don't worry, everyone has it, remember to stick it on the doors and windows after taking it back, so that the children at home pay attention to it, don't accidentally tear it off." ”

The old man shouted patiently as he handed the yellow paper in his hand to the villagers around him.

The villagers who had received the yellow paper from the old man's hand had a look of joy on their faces, and after squeezing out of the crowd, they hurried towards a certain place.

After a while, there were not a few people left in the originally bustling crowd.

In the past, when there were many people, the old man couldn't take care of it at all, and he didn't notice Qin Ke's existence, but now as the flow of people dispersed, the old man noticed Qin Ke, who had been here for a long time.

"This son, presumably, is not from this village. The old man's gaze fell on Qin Ke's body, and after looking at it, he said with a faint smile on his face.

"Your eyesight is so good, I just passed by here, and when I saw everyone gathered here, I couldn't help but be curious to come and have a look. The old man's cultivation is not enough, but Qin Ke's words are full of respect for him.

The old man smiled, shook his head and said, "I am the village chief of this Yingyue Village, they all call me Li Laohan, and there is no one in this village that I don't recognize." ”

"Old Li, can I stay in the village temporarily tonight?" After a moment's hesitation, Qin Ke said to Old Man Li.

The sun was about to set, and if he left from here, Qin Ke didn't know if he could find a convenient place to rest, so he asked.

"This.... Li Laohan was slightly stunned when he heard Qin Ke's words, as if he was hesitating about something, and was silent for a moment, only to see him sigh slightly, and said, "Okay, you can come with me." ”

Yingyue Village was located in the outermost part of the Nebula Empire, and there were no nearby villages nearby, as the head of a village, Li Laohan naturally couldn't let Qin Ke stay outside.

Led Qin Ke to a wooden house, Li Laohan said slightly apologetically: "The conditions in the village are quite difficult, let's stay here tonight." ”

"You're so polite, if you hadn't taken me in, I'm afraid I'd have stayed out tonight. Qin Ke hurriedly waved his hand and said.

Li Laohan's gaze swept from the room, his brows furrowed slightly, and he slowly took out two pieces of yellow paper from his arms and pasted them on the doors and windows.

Previously, due to the distance, Qin Ke didn't notice the special nature of this yellow paper, but now looking at this yellow paper so closely, Qin Ke's eyes were slightly stunned, and he couldn't help but say, "This is.... Talisman?"

Hearing Qin Ke's words, Li Laohan's eyes showed a hint of surprise, nodded lightly, and said, "Childe is really good eyesight, this is exactly the talisman that Xiao Lao'er asked for from the town." ”

The art of talisman is quite popular in the Heavenly Spirit Empire, but as for the Nebula Empire, very few people practice this, although the art of talisman is extremely rare, but there are some people who specialize in it for some reason and make some extremely powerful talismans.

Since the runes need to be prepared in advance, even the Divine Seal King Realm will feel a headache when encountering those runes that have sealed powerful powers.

Although Qin Ke didn't understand the talisman, judging from the spiritual power hidden on those yellow papers, the power of the talisman seemed to be extremely weak, and even Qin Ke wondered if this old guy had been deceived by some bad warlock.

"Elder Li, what are you doing with so many runes in the village. Qin Ke asked puzzled.

Glancing at Qin Ke, Li Laohan sighed deeply, and said helplessly: "The old man doesn't want to, but he can't post it, I don't know why, the village has been haunted recently." ”

Carefully put away the rest of the talisman paper, Li Laohan said to Qin Ke: "From the old man's point of view, Gongzi is only afraid that he is not a child of ordinary people such as me, and his Taoist cultivation is not comparable to the people in the village, but the old man still has to advise Gongzi not to go out easily at night, the night in Yingyue Village has not been peaceful recently." ”
