Chapter 731: Remnants of Jingting

"You, drew a top-top-grade sign?"

Shen Xiaotang's face was covered in frost, and the hostility in her heart surged uncontrollably.

Ever since the internal strife in the sect and the second wife fled with her loyalists, Starry Sky Valley had been severely damaged!

This time, Shen Xiaotang led a team out, precisely to put pressure on Bee-Elephant Valley. If she wanted her own power to develop and grow, she naturally needed more strong-deity disciples.

As a result, the disciples of the Poison Bee and Spirit Elephant factions had very hard bones!

They refused to bow their heads.

This time, the two sides even clashed, causing Shen Xiaotang to lose several good hands.

She missed the glory of the past incomparably; if Jingting Mountain were still what it used to be, a small Bee-Elephant Valley would be nothing!

Those hard bones would all have to kneel at her feet and submit!

It wouldn't even take Jingting Mountain in its prime; just going back a few months, to the period when she and the second wife had just occupied Starry Sky Valley, would have been enough to destroy Bee-Elephant Valley.

Alas, that civil war not only caused heavy casualties to the Dongting faction disciples but also caused the newly conquered Star Official disciples and Flower Lantern disciples to suffer heavy losses and flee in the chaos.

Damn it!

Damn bitch!

Shen Xiaotang cursed the second wife more than once; why did she have to fight with her?

If the second wife had bowed her head obediently, how could their side be like this now?

Shen Xiaotang, who had suffered a setback at Bee-Elephant Valley, was already full of anger, and as a result, just after returning to Starry Sky Valley, she heard that the Spirit Sign believer in the valley had drawn a top-top-grade sign.

Top-top-grade sign?!

How could the fire in Shen Xiaotang's heart be suppressed?

"I'm asking you!" Shen Xiaotang said coldly.

Chang Ying was submissive and knelt down obediently: "Yes, Valley Master."

"Hehe." Shen Xiaotang laughed in anger: "For you, today is a good day, right?"

Chang Ying lowered her head and remained silent.

Shen Xiaotang took the long whip from the man beside her and whipped Chang Ying hard on the face.

"Snap!"

Chang Ying's head was whipped to the side.

"Today is your good day, is it?" Shen Xiaotang stepped forward.

She was clearly a slender woman, but she was like a great mountain, pressing hard toward Chang Ying.

Crisp whipping sounds came one after another.

Xiao Man, who was kneeling and bowing to the side, was trembling with fear, her little face scared pale.

"I'm asking you! Is it? Hmm? Is it?"

Every time Shen Xiaotang said a word, a whip fell.

Chang Ying silently dissipated her water flow armor and let the Valley Master whip her.

When you accept punishment, it is best to cancel the water flow armor as soon as possible, otherwise, what awaits you will be more suffering, or even death.

"Snap! Snap!"

Crisp whipping sounds kept coming, and Shen Xiaotang vented the anger she had received from Bee-Elephant Valley on the lowly slave at her feet.

"I was played by Bee-Elephant Valley, you are very happy, right?"

"Snap! Snap!"

"Several Dongting disciples died, it's your big happy day, right?"

"Snap! Snap—"

Chang Ying lowered her head, her face and body covered in whip marks.

The burning pain didn't count for much; instead, it made her feel that she was still alive, still existing, it's just...

What is the point of living like this?

That top-top-grade sign?

Is that the meaning of my persistence?

But when I went on the pilgrimage, what I drew was also a top-top-grade sign...

"Thud!"

Chang Ying only felt a sharp pain in her abdomen, and her whole body was kicked away, her throat sweet, and she spat out a mouthful of blood.

Shen Xiaotang's chest heaved violently, watching Chang Ying smash into a big tree and fall heavily to the ground, she shouted sharply:

"Get over here, kneel properly!"

Chang Ying's eyes were unfocused, she climbed up silently, repeating a sentence in her heart:

Didn't they say... top-top-grade sign?

This is my top-top-grade sign.

"Hurry up!" Shen Xiaotang shouted sharply.

Chang Ying lowered her eyes and crawled numbly to the woman's feet.

"Valley Master." The man beside her called softly.

Shen Xiaotang turned to look at the man, and that gloomy look made the man tremble involuntarily.

He stammered: "Valley Master, calm your anger, punishment can be... anytime, now that she has drawn a top-top-grade sign, our Starry Sky Valley is afraid..."

Shen Xiaotang's eyes were gloomy, looking at the slave crawling to her feet: "Draw another sign, now!"

"Please wait a moment, Valley Master, I need to pray for a while."

"Hurry up!" Shen Xiaotang looked at Xiao Man, whose face was bloodless: "You, draw a sign!"

"Ah! Yes, yes!"

Xiao Man hurriedly fished out a sign tube and shook it with a clatter.

This time, she didn't divine for herself.

Unlike the disciples of the Curse Master faction, Spirit Sign believers don't have to divine for themselves; Spirit Sign believers can divine for others and other things.

The aspects of divination are very broad.

It's just that all along, Chang Ying and Xiao Man, as slaves of Starry Sky Valley, were required to divine their own fate, which is more specific and accurate.

Of course, no matter how specific and accurate, Spirit Sign believers can at most achieve nine out of ten divinations being spiritual.

"Whoosh~"

A wooden sign flew high and hovered in mid-air, with a word written on it—Middle.

Middle-grade sign?

Xiao Man's face was stunned, and then she breathed a sigh of relief.

"Are you divining your own fate?" A cold female voice came.

"Yes! Valley Master Shen, yes, this slave doesn't dare to lie to you." Xiao Man kowtowed repeatedly, trembling.

Doesn't dare to lie?

If she didn't dare, she would really die here!

"Hmph." Shen Xiaotang gave a cold snort and whipped Chang Ying again: "You, are you done yet?"

Chang Ying prayed silently.

Praying to the Deity · Spirit Sign.

She endured whip after whip, her clothes were whipped to shreds, without water flow armor, she was also whipped to skin and flesh.

Until she took out the sign tube again, Shen Xiaotang stopped, blood dripping from the whip.

"Clatter~"

The sign tube kept shaking, and after a series of crisp sounds, a wooden sign flew out.

On it were written two words—Bottom-Bottom!

Bottom-bottom-grade sign?

"Heh." Shen Xiaotang sneered, flicked the blood off the whip, and whipped the lowly slave hard again: "Yes, this is your fate!"

"Valley Master!" Xiao Man saw the bottom-bottom-grade sign and begged hurriedly: "Valley Master, calm your anger! Our Spirit Sign faction is not 100% accurate; the top-top-grade sign Chang Ying drew before must have been a mistake, she didn't calculate it accurately!"

Shen Xiaotang whipped Xiao Man on the face, turned to look to the side, and ordered: "Vigilance in the valley today, let the Flying Eagle Hall go to Bee-Elephant Valley to keep an eye on them."

"Yes!" The man hurriedly took the order and left quickly.

Shen Xiaotang looked behind: "What are you all standing there for?"

The crowd behind didn't dare to breathe, and left in a hurry.

Shen Xiaotang turned her head, looking at the bruised Chang Ying, and swung the whip again..

"Bitch! Finally drew the sign you deserve?" Shen Xiaotang vented the anger in her heart: "Top-top-grade sign, are you worthy?"

"Snap! Snap! Snap—"

In the dense whip shadows, Chang Ying lowered her head, blood marks appearing one after another on her body, blood flowing from the corners of her mouth.

But her eyes, which should have been unfocused, had a trace of spirit.

Just now, she didn't divine for herself either.

But for Shen Xiaotang's fate.

At the same time, more than fifty kilometers away, north of Bee-Elephant Valley.

Two Black Fire divine steeds had flames wrapped around their hooves, wandering in the beautiful rainforest.

"Flap, flap, flap—"

The sound of flapping wings came from far to near, and Lu Ran immediately raised his arm.

The pitch-black crow appeared and landed on Lu Ran's forearm: "Sect Master, I have seen the battlefield."

"Is someone fighting?" Lu Ran immediately became energetic.

The black crow hurriedly shook its head: "No, no! It's the site after the battle, a mess, I saw many elephant foot marks, a great battle happened there."

"Direction!" Lu Ran directly opened a pair of Death Realm pupils—

Wu Huan hurriedly pointed the way, and Lu Ran and Deng Yu Xiang spurred their horses to gallop.

Lu Ran and the others soon arrived at the battlefield, and it was indeed as Wu Huan said, it was unbearable to look at!

Rainforest terrain, originally lush with vegetation, but a large open space appeared here.

Trees were broken and fallen, and the earth was torn and collapsed.

Deep pits in the shape of elephant feet indicated that disciples under the third-rank deity · Spirit Elephant had been rampant here.

Unfortunately, there were no souls in the battlefield area.

It seems that this great battle happened before.

"Truly fierce." Lu Ran stood by a pit in the shape of an elephant foot, looking at the deep pit below.

There were no bloody corpses, only dried blood stains and meat paste crushed into pieces.

【Master.】

【Hmm?】

【There is a scout... a Poison Bee believer! She has bee wings on her back.】

【Don't get close!】 Lu Ran hurriedly transmitted: 【Report the position, I will go personally!】

The Deity · Poison Bee and the Deity · Spirit Elephant are both in the third row.

Both belong to the "Eight Great Heavenly Demons" sequence.

The Poison Bee faction is very special, it is one of the few sects in the world that plays with poison.

The weapons of this faction are poisonous, the bee needles sprinkled are poisonous, and the bee poison domain released is even more astonishingly poisonous.

Once an enemy gets contaminated with bee poison, nausea is just the initial reaction, and soon people will be unable to control vomiting, brain dizziness, until they completely lose their combat ability.

Under Yan Shuangzi's guidance, Lu Ran hid his figure and quietly flew to a branch in the middle of a giant tree.

This Poison Bee female disciple in front of him was clearly very vigilant.

She had been keeping the Poison Bee divine art · Bee Wings open, and once those thin wings vibrated, the flight speed was shockingly fast.

Slowly, Lu Ran's hand landed on the back of her head.

"Ah?" The Poison Bee female disciple's face changed drastically, and green poison mist was released from her body instantly.

"Hoo!" While Lu Ran appeared, golden air waves were released from his body.

Wu Sheng divine art · Purifying Golden Wind!

This is a method of purification, and its effect is consistent with the evil art · Immortal Realm of the Jade-Faced Snake clan.

"Master Wu, spare my life!" The female disciple's face was pressed against the tree bark; not only did she recognize the golden air waves, but she also sensed the terrifying Sea Realm pressure behind her.

She was only a River Estuary Realm disciple, how would she dare to have any thoughts of resistance?

"I ask, you answer." Lu Ran grabbed the back of the woman's head and flew down slowly.

"Yes, yes, Master!"

"What's going on here?"

"Starry Sky Valley! People from Starry Sky Valley came to invade yesterday... they wanted to annex our Bee-Elephant Valley, and we fought."

"Starry Sky Valley?" Lu Ran was quite puzzled: "How come I heard that your two factions are allies?"

Lu Yuan and his disciple gave Lu Ran intelligence information, mostly about locations, without much information about human forces.

The relevant information about Bee-Elephant Valley and Starry Sky Valley was provided by Longxiang's Eight Riders · Yue Yi, but this intelligence was also from many years ago.

Lu Ran had a good impression of Bee-Elephant Valley and Starry Sky Valley precisely because Yue Yi indicated that these two factions were the few "normal" sects near Soul-Locking Mountain.

"Long ago... not anymore, a long time ago, Starry Sky Valley was occupied by a group of Dongting disciples."

"Dongting disciples?"

"Yes!" The Poison Bee female disciple gritted her teeth under Lu Ran's terrifying pressure, her eyes full of astonishing hatred: "They were once people from Jingting Mountain..."

Before the words were finished, the Poison Bee female disciple's body stiffened, not daring to speak again.

The youth's low voice, originally full of majesty, very much in line with the tone of a first-rank deity · Wu Sheng disciple, had now become sinister:

"You said... Jingting Mountain?"

There is another chapter tonight.

It takes an average of four hours to write a chapter, I am working hard to write it, if it is too late, everyone can read it tomorrow.
