That day, Zhang Ling left the inn and went straight to the South City ofWuxiang City.
After about half an hour, he arrived at a small road in the South City Market. On both sides of the road were antique buildings, but most of the doors were closed, and only a few shops were open.
The South City ofWuxiang City is a gathering place for loose cultivators. Many loose cultivators live in shops or houses here.
However, most of the shops here are individually operated, and there are very few large shops. The items sold here are mostly suitable for Qi refining and foundation building monks. For high-level monks, there is nothing of value here.
However, compared to other market places, this place is more mixed, and there are often many private ghost markets.
Some high-level monks often enter and leave these ghost markets, and find many good things in them. But these are not on the surface.
Today he came here not to participate in any ghost market, but went straight through several streets and came to a closed attic.
This is a three-story attic, without plaques and signs, it looks a bit dilapidated, and there are some miscellaneous stone tablets and wooden pillars around it.
Zhang Ling glanced at these things and immediately recognized that they were just some extremely common weapon refining materials, which could only be used to refine some low-level magic weapons. No one would steal them even if they were placed in front of the door. It seemed that this place was a grocery store.
Zhang Ling flicked his hand, and a black jade pendant appeared in his hand. The jade pendant was round and carved with a fox pattern. At this moment, the eyes of the jade-carved fox flickered with blue light, as if it were alive.
A wisp of spiritual energy was injected into it, and the jade pendant flashed with spiritual light. A small fox phantom jumped out and disappeared into the attic in a flash.
This jade pendant was naturally given to him by the Qinghu(青狐: Green Fox) King's clone in theTianyuan Secret Realm before.
An hour ago, Zhang Ling was practicing in the inn when the jade pendant reacted and the Qinghu(青狐: Green Fox) King's voice transmission came, asking him to meet here.
Needless to say, the Qinghu(青狐: Green Fox) King called him here for the sake of the heaven and earth spiritual object, the Rootless Lotus.
When entering theTianyuan Secret Realm, he reached a cooperation with the Qinghu(青狐: Green Fox) King.
So there was nothing unexpected. During this period of time inWuxiang City, he was collecting some spiritual objects that he lacked on the one hand, and waiting for news from the Qinghu(青狐: Green Fox) King on the other hand.
With a soft creak, the door opened.
A black-faced man in black walked out, waving to Zhang Ling with a smile on his face.
"Haha, Fellow Daoist Zhang, long time no see, do you rememberTu?"
"Oh, it turns out to be Fellow DaoistTu." Zhang Ling was stunned when he saw this person, and also showed a smile and cupped his hands.
This black-faced man was Tu Fei, who had two encounters with him. This person was proficient in swordsmanship. He had previously heard Huang Ying say that Tu Fei was temporarily living in Cangyao(藏妖: Hiding Demon) Valley. This person's master was also a Nascent Soul old monster, and had a close relationship with the Qinghu(青狐: Green Fox) King.
It is not surprising to meet this Fellow DaoistTu now.
But what surprised Zhang Ling was that this Fellow DaoistTu's cultivation had also advanced to the late stage of Jindan(金丹: Golden Core). Seeing the spiritual power on his body rising, it seemed that he had just advanced not long ago, and had not completely suppressed the fluctuations of spiritual power on his body.
Tu Fei's eyes flashed with bright light, and he looked up and down at Zhang Ling a few times. "After many years, Fellow Daoist's strength has improved extraordinarily. Now he has broken intoTianyuan once. It seems that there will be another Nascent Soul old monster is ashamed."
"Fellow DaoistTu praised me wrongly. I don't have much confidence in the Nascent Soul realm. Seeing that Fellow Daoist's strength has also improved rapidly, and he is also a swordsman with extraordinary strength, it won't take long to surpass me. By the way, has the Demon King arrived?" Zhang Ling shook his head slightly and said.
"Haha,Tu was only busy chatting with Fellow Daoist, and forgot the Demon King's instructions, Fellow Daoist, please come in quickly." Tu Fei touched his head with a silly smile, and invited Zhang Ling into the attic.
The two went directly to the second floor and entered a wooden house. The house was not big, but it was decorated quite elegantly, and it seemed that someone often lived here.
Next to a measure word high colored drawing screen, there were several mahogany chairs and a black wooden round table. Two women were sitting at the table.
One of the women was wearing a red robe and looked to be in her early thirties, saying something. The other girl was lying on the table teasing a black-haired fox.
Zhang Ling glanced at it and recognized that the woman in the red dress was Huang Ying. When this woman saw him, she bowed to him. "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Zhang."
"I am flattered, what does fairy mean..." This thank you made Zhang Ling stunned, not understanding what it meant, he also quickly returned a salute and asked.
"Haha, Brother Zhang, don't worry, she is sincerely thanking you, you will know later." Without waiting for Huang Ying to explain, Tu Fei next to him smiled at Zhang Ling.
This made Zhang Ling even more confused, but he didn't ask any more questions.
The other woman was also curiously looking at him.
This is a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, not very old, with dark green long hair, which doesn't look like an ordinary monk. Strangely, this girl has a pair of different color pupils, the left eye is emerald green, but the right eye is white .
It looks like one eye is blue pupil and the other eye is silver pupil. This pair of different color pupils gave Zhang Ling a soul-stirring feeling, and the spiritual power on his body running involuntarily.
"Xi'er, don't be rude, Fellow Daoist Zhang is still your savior, don't you see him." Huang Ying's voice came from the side, and the girl also retracted her eyes. "Auntie, Xi'er knows."
The girl pouting her mouth and stood up from the chair, and also respectfully saluted Zhang Ling.
"I don't know who this fairy is." Zhang Ling also naturally returned a salute and asked.
Although he was asking, he suddenly remembered the mission when he had not condense Golden Core, in order to search for forming core spiritual objects, following Huang Ying, Tu Fei and others to hunt down demon beast.
At that time, after they joined forces to kill the Golden Core Elder, thisHuang Fairy seemed to have rescued a green-haired girl, could it be the girl in front of her.
"Fellow Daoist may remember theChen Elder who was killed a hundred years ago. At that time..." Huang Ying seemed to see that he was a little confused and started talking about the girl's affairs. From time to time, Tu Fei also interjected a few words.
After listening to their explanation, Zhang Ling also looked at the girl a few more times. In fact, it was almost the same as he guessed.
When I saw Huang Ying in Cangyao(藏妖: Hiding Demon) Valley before, I said about this girl, but I didn't expect it to be the girl in front of me.
This girl named Xi'er is not a pure human race, but a half-demon. Her father is the Qinghu(青狐: Green Fox) King.
Speaking of which, half-demons are the offspring of transformed demon races and human monks, but the chances of survival at birth are very small.
Most of them die young, and even if they can survive, many have some defects. This girl is no exception, and the defects on her body cause great problems in her cultivation.
Previously, Huang Ying exchanged Yanghun(养魂: Soul Nourishing) wood with him, and participated in the treasure hunt in Wanyao(万妖: Ten Thousand Demons) Valley, all for this girl.
And this girl named Xi'er is not simple, she also has the strength of the early stage of Jindan(金丹: Golden Core), and she has a very strong demon evil spirit, which is not comparable to ordinary monks.
Although half-demons are Heterogeneous, they are born with demon power, which is passed down from transformed demon beasts.
Zhang Ling has heard that half-demons are rarely welcome by transformed demon kings.
The demon race and the human race are generally very reject this kind of Heterogeneous. Only Cangyao(藏妖: Hiding Demon) Valley has a place for half-demons, relying on the demon king who himself belongs to half-demon.
Even if there is a blood connection, most demon kings do not welcome half-demons, and once they are born, they will directly kill them, or ignore them and let them fend for themselves.
After listening to the girl's identity and experience, the Qinghu(青狐: Green Fox) King seems to take good care of this half-demon daughter.
After chatting for a few words, Zhang Ling asked about the Qinghu(青狐: Green Fox) King.
