The sound like a bell made everyone who was talking stop.
"As we all know, three hundred years ago, Hong'an Street in Youling City was surrounded by a dark yellow gas called mirage. That night, almost everyone in Hong'an Street died, and the mirage has been around ever since. If it stays, it will be emitted every night.”
Everyone nodded.
Three hundred years is not a long time or a short time, but basically most of the monks in the foundation building period know this.
After all, the brutality of Hong'an Street at that time shocked everyone in Youling City.
"After that, several of our major families, the City Lord's Mansion, and other righteous monks went to Hong'an Street to investigate, but found nothing. On the contrary, they suffered countless losses. Three years later, Hong'an Street was completely abandoned. As time passed, As time went by, Hong'an Street has since become a mysterious rumor in Youling City."
Speaking of mysterious rumors, someone whispered: "The source of the mirage on Hong'an Street is the corpse of an insect beast. There is also a corpse of a spirit beast deep in the Gale Forest. Two of the three major rumors in Youling City are because of Beast carcasses..."
This is really embarrassing.
Unexpectedly, two of the three major rumors were due to animal corpses.
But now that two major rumors have been unveiled, only the last one is left.
Zhu Xin listened to Li Shiqian explaining to her beside her and asked curiously: "What about the third mysterious rumor?"
"I don't know either." Li Shiqian shook his head.
She was not a casual cultivator in Youling City before, but just passed by this place to rest for a while with her Taoist companions.
After all, her spiritual roots are really not suitable for Youling City where the fire aura is so strong.
"Could it be that the third rumor is also a beast corpse?" Zhu Xin guessed.
"It's possible, and it would be really interesting if that were the case."
The three mysterious rumors in Youling City are all from the corpses of beasts. If you tell them, they may make people laugh.
The monk next to him happened to hear it and sneered.
"impossible!"
Li Shiqian looked over and saw that the monk at the tenth level of Qi Refining, although one level lower than her, could see that his aura was rich and full, and he should be able to advance to the next level soon.
No wonder I had to blame her.
"Why is it impossible? Do you know the truth of the third rumor?"
"No, but you wouldn't say that if you knew what the third rumor was."
"What is it?"
The monk obviously knew something inside.
Compared with the other two major rumors, the third one seems to be much more mysterious.
In other words, keep it secret.
She has been in Youling City for twenty years. Although she has been working as a cook in Taolingwan, she occasionally comes out to listen to what everyone thinks of the dishes she cooks. Naturally, this mysterious rumor has been mentioned countless times.
But every time everyone talked about the third rumor, they all tacitly agreed not to continue.
The only thing she knew was that the third rumor started slowly fifty years ago.
The shortest time, but the most taboo.
She and Qiu Qian had mentioned before that they were both curious about what this third rumor was.
Above, the voice continued to enter the minds of everyone on Hong'an Street.
"...Not long ago, the mirage on Hong'an Street was finally solved. I think you all must be curious about who solved the mirage. That is the manager of the Hong'an Street Grocery Store, Xu Qiuqian!"
"Xu Qiuqian? Who is it?"
"Is this grocery store the one that held this arena event together with several big families? I heard that it was a mortal! A mortal solved the mirage? Is there any mistake!"
"That's right. There were so many monks working one after another, and the damage to their cultivation was not solved. How could it be solved by a mortal?"
"But it's not impossible to think about it. After all, the mirage has no effect on mortals..."
"At the beginning, several major families also looked for mortals, but in the end, nothing was found!"
"Some time ago, disciples from the Wenji Sect came here, including Master Jindan."
"Needless to say, it must have been solved by Master Jin Dan!"
Everyone nodded after hearing this. If a mortal can solve one of the three major rumors, wouldn't it mean that the monks in Youling City are incompetent and cannot even compare to a mortal?
How can it be!
"Why do people from those big families say she solved it?"
"Needless to say, it's just to promote her!"
"With the status of several major families, why should they elevate a mortal?"
"this……"
Li Shiqian sneered: "Can't you find any reason to excuse your incompetence? What's useless is useless. Even if you have spiritual roots and can cultivate, you're still a waste!"
"What did you say?!"
The monk became anxious instantly.
"I said, you are a waste, don't you understand? I can repeat it again, a waste! You can't even compare to a mortal. What is it if it's not a waste?"
"You..." The monk was furious, but because Li Shiqian was higher in cultivation than him, he didn't dare to take action. There was a trace of sinisterness in his eyes, and he said coldly: "According to what you say, all the monks in Youling City are... Is it trash?"
"I didn't say anything." Li Shiqian was not stupid.
If she admits it, won't she put herself on the opposite side of all the monks in Youling City and bring hatred to Qiu Qian?
"I'm just saying that people who have no ability and are unwilling to admit that they have no ability, but still look down on ordinary people are useless people, such as you. If I say this, do you understand?"
The monk had already been carried away by anger. When he heard this, he felt that Li Shiqian was provoking.
Others were also a little surprised. After all, what Li Shiqian just said did mean something, and they also believed that Xu Qiuqian, as a mortal, could not be the one to find the source of the mirage.
"Is it difficult to admit that others are better than you?"
Li Shiqian's expression was cold, but there was disappointment in his eyes.
In the world of cultivating immortals, the strong are respected, but the strength that everyone understands seems to be different from the strength that she understands.
They think that a high level of cultivation is strong. Indeed, a high level of cultivation is strong, but this does not mean that a low level of cultivation is weak. If one can do things with a low level of cultivation or even a mortal body that a monk with a high level of cultivation cannot do, no matter Does it further prove that this person is strong?
It's a pity that today's monks seem to only know about cultivation and only focus on cultivation.
She was disappointed and said nothing more.
But her words were inevitably remembered in people's hearts. Everyone looked up at the woman wearing a curtain and wearing a blue dress. She stood there quietly, and people from several big families were very affectionate to her.
The intimacy was not fake, which showed that the relationship between the woman and several major families was better than they imagined.
Is it difficult to admit that others are better than you?
Li Shiqian's words appeared in everyone's minds again.
Only this time, everyone was silent.
a long time.
"Perhaps there is something special about her." A monk said.
But most monks still feel that even if they are extraordinary, they are not powerful enough to be able to find the source of mirage alone.
It was probably the Jindan master who asked the Supreme Sect who found out most of the truth, ninety-nine percent of it, and she discovered the last bit.
At this time, Chen Zhuo, the head of the Chen family, spoke out.
"The Hong'an Street Arena Competition officially begins!"
"On the first day of restricted fighting, the restriction is: magic weapon, Shadow Moon Blade! Provided by: Hong'an Street Grocery Store Xu Qiuqian!"
