Chapter 207
The stone chamber was unusually quiet, but Biyao told her own encounter: when she was six, her mother went to the Fox Cave of Mount Huqi to visit her grandmother, but was collapsed by the entire Fox Cave by Pufang of Tianyin Temple using the magic treasure Buddha Golden Bowl, causing the three of them to be buried alive on the spot.
Afterwards, if it weren't for her mother wanting to save her with her life, there would definitely be no possibility of survival.
"Hehe, if your father really hated you, how could there be you, a young lady from a wealthy family, today."
Zhuang Buran looked at the ferocious and evil evil god statue and said lightly:
"I was an ordinary mountain village boy before I was eleven. Suddenly one day, almost all the relatives and friends in the village died, and my own parents also died miserably among them."
"Comparing you and me, am I more miserable? At least you still have a father."
Biyao, who had been immersed in self-blame and sadness, opened her eyes wide and stared blankly at the youth in yellow robes.
"Seeing your devout posture toward the evil god statue before, I suppose all the Demon Sect members respect this evil god."
Biyao didn't understand his meaning and said:
"In the legends of our Holy Sect, the Holy Mother of the Netherworld is the god who nurtures thousands of living beings, and the Heavenly Evil Bright King is the fierce god who opened heaven and earth and is in charge of punishment, so no one dares to be disrespectful to them."
"The fierce god who opened heaven and earth and is in charge of punishment is empty-handed. It's a pity you are still some kind of demon girl of the Demon Sect." The youth in yellow robes shook his head:
"I suggest you don't need to open your eyes when walking in the future. Anyway, for you, it's the same whether you open your eyes or not."
Upon hearing this, Biyao couldn't help but look at the statue of the Heavenly Evil Bright King and suddenly reacted:
"That's right, why is the Heaven-Opening Axe gone!"
She immediately ran into the treasure room on the right side of the stone chamber and dragged out a huge iron-cast giant axe.
"Zhang Xiaofan, why don't you come over and help? Don't you want to go out?"
Zhuang Buran raised his hand and summoned, and an invisible force pressed the giant axe onto the right hand of the Heavenly Evil Bright King statue.
Seeing the giant axe in her hand slip away, Biyao couldn't help but ask in surprise:
"Uh... how deep is your cultivation?"
Zhuang Buran raised his hand and pressed, and the right hand of the Heavenly Evil Bright King statue was lifted from its drooping state to mid-air. The stone chamber vibrated with a roaring sound, and the stone wall behind the statue slowly receded to both sides, revealing a passageway.
"I already said I am a peerless genius. How deep do you think my cultivation is? Why don't you hurry up and go? This mechanism is not only the final escape route but also a ruthless method to destroy enemies. The entire Dripping Blood Cave will collapse completely before long."
The youth in yellow robes casually dropped a sentence and strode toward the passageway, and Biyao hurriedly followed.
Inside the passageway, following the loud noises behind them and flying stones, the girl in green couldn't help but grab the arm of the youth in yellow robes.
After all, someone's calm and composed demeanor from beginning to end could really give people a great sense of security.
Not long after, on the mountainside of Kongsang Mountain, below a cliff, a man and a woman flew out. When the two landed in the lush forest, the girl in green among them shouted happily.
"Demon girl, do you want to let go of me first before you express the joy and excitement of surviving a disaster in your heart?"
"Zhang Xiaofan, no matter what, we can be considered to have shared adversity and life and death. Don't you have anything to say?" Biyao let go of her hand indifferently.
The youth in yellow robes pondered for a long time and said:
"Righteous and evil cannot stand together."
Biyao's mood suddenly dropped, and she said gloomily:
"Young Hero Zhang, your speed of turning your face is indeed faster than turning a book."
"Overpraised, overpraised, still not as good as a certain demon girl who is very good at ambushing and calculating." Zhuang Buran raised his eyebrows slightly.
Biyao couldn't help but laugh and suddenly said:
"Didn't you say you are a peerless talent? However, no matter how gifted you are, the Qingyun Sect will only bury you."
She said earnestly:
"Since ancient times, the position of Qingyun Sect Leader has been succeeded by the Tongtian Peak lineage. Therefore, no matter how hard you try, in the hypocritical and pretentious righteous path, your background has already determined your future."
"Might as well come and join our Holy Sect. I will recommend you to Father. He has always loved talent and will definitely be willing to reuse you. Even becoming the next generation Sect Leader of my Ghost King Sect is not impossible."
"Just because in our Holy Sect, it has always been the strong who are respected."
"Just because I'm not shouting to kill you now, you should thank heaven and earth, yet you still want to trick me into the Demon Sect."
The youth in yellow robes suddenly raised his hand and flicked his finger. The girl in green let out a cry of pain, and her forehead was red and swollen, with a bump protruding.
"A willow-like figure is worthy of making me, a peerless genius of the Qingyun Sect, serve the demons? Please wake up, it's still bright outside!"
After speaking, he jumped up and disappeared into the sky.
"Zhang Xiaofan, you wait for me!"
Biyao was flicked, not only was her forehead unbearably painful, but her muscles and bones were also sore and weak. She could only angrily leave harsh words.
The Ten-Mile Black Stone Cave outside Xiaochi Town.
Eight masked men in gray-yellow robes carried a black sedan chair and landed at the cave entrance. The people in the cave seemed to have noticed the movement and a woman in white slowly walked out.
She looked extremely gentle and charming, and gave people a feeling of spontaneously feeling sorry for her at first glance.
"Are you also here to slay demons and eliminate devils?"
"Zhang Xiaofan, Changhong Sword Master of the Qingyun Sect, is here specifically to make a deal. I will save your sweetheart, and you hand over the Xuanhuo Mirror, the treasure of Fenxiang Valley."
"You are a disciple of a famous sect, yet you want to make a deal with me, a monster in the eyes of the world?"
"Since I am the Changhong Sword Master, I am naturally clear about grievances and grudges, and only kill evil demons who deserve to die."
Zhuang Buran walked out of the sedan chair with a smile on his lips:
"Among the demon foxes, there is a different species. A hundred years of cultivation will have three tails, called demon foxes; a thousand years of cultivation will have six tails, then it is a spirit fox; when there are nine tails, it will have the name of Heavenly Fox, and it is a peerless monster with divine powers."
"And three hundred years ago, a nine-tailed Heavenly Fox led the fox demon clan to attack Fenxiang Valley. Although it took away the Xuanhuo Mirror, the Heavenly Fox lineage can be said to have suffered heavy casualties, and only one six-tailed spirit fox escaped."
"And that nine-tailed Heavenly Fox has been imprisoned in the Baxiong Xuanhuo Array of Fenxiang Valley, suffering torture every day."
"The escaped six-tailed spirit fox also hit the Nine Cold Condensing Ice Thorn of Shangguan Ce of Fenxiang Valley. For three hundred years, it has suffered torture, and can only watch its thousand-year cultivation foundation being eroded by ice poison bit by bit until it dies."
"You are from the Qingyun Sect, and not a disciple of Fenxiang Valley, why do you know so clearly?" The three-tailed demon fox looked shocked.
"Since I take protecting the world's common people as my own responsibility, I have naturally reached the Heavenly Dao. When I start killing, I won't wrong a good person, nor will I let go of a bad person."
The youth in yellow robes had a slight thought, and the thin rope around his waist flew rapidly into the pitch-black Black Stone Cave.
The three-tailed demon fox just wanted to stop it, but suddenly felt a magnificent pressure and couldn't help but kneel on one knee.
"This time I came, with neither evil intentions nor good intentions, simply wanting to make a deal with you. Please put all your worries in your heart."
Upon hearing this, the three-tailed demon fox immediately kept silent, also discovering that her life was probably in the hands of the youth in yellow robes.
Not long after, the Changhong Rope bound a white six-tailed spirit fox and flew out of the cave.
"The entire foundation has been eroded by ice poison, it seems the cold has entered the bone marrow, and it cannot be saved."
Zhuang Buran's palm flashed with red light, covering the six-tailed spirit fox in front of him, but saw it constantly emitting cold air that was bone-chilling.
After a while, the six-tailed spirit fox slowly opened its eyes, revealing a sense of relaxation from unloading a heavy burden, and even noticed that besides the ice poison being removed, its corroded internal organs and meridians were also recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.
With a flash of light, the six-tailed demon fox turned into an elegant man in his twenties or thirties.
The youth in yellow robes took advantage of the situation to hook his palm at the three-tailed demon fox, and an object flew out of her arms and landed in his hand in an instant.
"I calculated the heavenly secrets and found that I have a connection with the nine-tailed Heavenly Fox. Afterwards, I will go to Fenxiang Valley. Both of you, take care."
While Zhuang Buran was speaking, he had already re-entered the sedan, and then a sentence echoed outside the Black Stone Cave:
"The deal is done, goodbye."
Eight masked men in gray-yellow robes flew into the air and disappeared into the sky.
