Two rays of light stopped in front of Ji Liao and the others. Ji Liao immediately felt two rays of divine consciousness sweeping over them. Then he saw that the two men looked shocked and looked at each other, and then The man with the scarred face took a step forward and raised his hands to the eight people, "A few fellow Taoists are here for some unknown reason?"
At this time, Zheng Tianlong, the only inner disciple among the eight, came out, sneered, and asked without answering, "Is this the territory of the Huang Shixian Clan?"
Seeing Zheng Tianlong being so rude, the scar-faced man's face flashed with anger, but Ji Liao's side had a large number of people and his cultivation was much higher than them. He did not dare to show it at the moment, and he quickly bowed and said, " Exactly! I don’t know..."
"What are your names!" The scar-faced man wanted to ask again, but was interrupted sharply by Zheng Tianlong.
"Ah...this..." The scarred-faced man's face became even more ugly, and even the tall man beside him had a bit of anger on his face.
"Haha, why don't you even know your own name?" Zheng Tianlong chuckled and teased, his contempt clearly evident.
"Huang Fei, this is my cousin Huang Yong." The scar-faced man still did not dare to show it and said through gritted teeth.
Huang Fei and Huang Yong are both direct descendants of the Huang Immortal Cultivation Family. They have a high status in the family and have good qualifications. They have already condensed their energy into liquid at a young age. They are extremely famous in the family. They have grown so tall. Huang Fei has never been so angry before, but the current situation is better than others. No matter how unhappy Huang Fei is, he doesn't dare to make a mistake in front of so many people.
"We are the disciples of the Four Peaks of the Purple Air Sect. We are here to investigate your family's failure to turn in offerings for two years under the order of the sect." Zheng Tianlong said, then pointed at Huang Yong, "Lead the way and take us to see your clan leader. .”
Huang Fei and Huang Yong trembled when they heard that they were disciples of the Purple Air Sect. They looked at each other again, with a strange look in their eyes.
At this time, Huang Yong, who had been silent for a long time, stood up and raised his hands to several people, "Hahaha, it turns out that he is a fellow Taoist from the Purple Air Sect. He came all the way but felt far away..."
"Stop talking nonsense and lead the way." Zheng Tianlong waved his hand impatiently, interrupting Huang Yong's words.
Although you are said to be the genius of the Immortal Cultivation Family, in the eyes of the disciples of the sect you belong to, no matter how talented you are at home, no matter how favored by thousands of people, you are not as good as an outer disciple of the sect in terms of rank. Zheng Tianlong is Xingyun Feng Tianjiao treated these family members with no mercy at all, and directly ordered the two of them in a commanding tone.
"This...is!" Huang Yong hesitated for a moment, then responded and said, "Follow me."
After saying that, he stepped on the sword and turned into a ray of light and rushed towards the interior of the Baiyue Mountains.
Huang Fei on the side bowed his hands to everyone and said, "Excuse me!"
Then he activated the stone tablet under his feet and flew back in the direction he came from.
Ji Liao looked at the performance of these two people, as if he had expected such a day for a long time. He felt a strange feeling in his heart at that moment. Seeing that everyone around him had already followed Huang Yong in the light, he sighed. , urging the white clouds under his feet to follow.
The Baiyue Mountains are steep and rugged with strange rocks. Most of them are rocky mountains with an earthy color. There are also many mountains, one after another, layer upon layer. Only occasionally do lush green mountains appear in the sky. Passing by, you can see the dark mountain streams below.
Seeing the Baiyue Mountains like this, I couldn't help but become suspicious, and thought to myself, "This mountain is so steep that it is not conducive to habitat and life. Moreover, it is mostly rocky mountains with few trees and forests. It is impossible to gather the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. This way How can there be a family of immortal cultivators living in one place?"
While I was thinking about it, traces of life finally appeared on a rock in the distance. I saw many earthy yellow stone houses carved all over the huge stone mountain. There were no less than a hundred densely packed houses, and people could be seen walking through them from time to time.
After flying in, Ji Liao saw that the four sides of this stone mountain were generally the same, and they were all carved with stone houses. At first glance, it was estimated that there were five or six hundred houses on this stone mountain.
The adjacent stone mountain is also exactly the same. There are more than a dozen huge iron chain bridges hanging between the two peaks. This iron chain bridge stands on the 100-foot peak. It will sway gently when the mountain wind passes by, giving people a thrilling feeling. a feeling of.
Ji Liao saw people coming and going on the cable bridge. They seemed completely unaware of the hundreds of feet of abyss under their feet. They didn't care at all about the shaking of the cable bridge. Some people even joked and chatted in it. They were obviously used to this kind of life.
"It seems that a cultivating family has a certain living condition." Ji Liao said in his heart.
As a descendant of the Ji family's Immortal Cultivation family, he knows very little about their family's affairs. The Ji family's Immortal Cultivation family covers a radius of more than sixty miles, with dense mountains and forests, and several river valleys passing through the clan. Although there are few places with strong spiritual energy. Although the Ji family's cultivating immortal family is extremely nurturing, it is much better than the harsh living environment of the Huang family's cultivating immortal family.
After flying for about half a stick of incense, the mountain peaks became denser, and the houses within them were also much denser. The iron chains between the peaks became denser and denser, crisscrossing them like an iron-like spider web.
Not long after, two huge peaks towering into the clouds appeared in front of them. There were no houses on these two peaks, standing like two huge gateposts between heaven and earth.
On one of the peaks, two large characters "Huang Family" are carved.
Huang Yong led a few people straight through. After passing the mountain peak, Ji Liao felt that the sky was getting dark. He stared and saw that there were two identical huge mountain peaks in the distance.
Between these four peaks, there is a flat land. This place is lined with houses. They are no longer stone houses built against the mountains, but exquisite wooden buildings.
The life here is very dense and the scene is quite lively. It seems that Huang is the core area of the Xiuxian family.
In the center of these houses, there is a low hilltop of thirty to forty feet. All wooden buildings are built around this peak, forming an encirclement trend.
I saw an earthy color appearing on the surface of this low mountain, with several huge cracks on it, and a faint glow flowing around it, as if covered with a layer of aura gauze. At a glance, you can tell that it is definitely not an ordinary stone mountain.
Huang Yong took a few of them and flew straight towards a palace under the stone mountain. It didn't take long for them to land at the entrance of the palace.
Huang Yong stopped and raised his hands to the group of eight people, "Please tell me."
Zheng Tianlong nodded, "Go quickly!"
Huang Yong responded, turned around and walked into the palace.
This palace is not big. It is made entirely of wood and looks like a mortal palace.
After about a minute of tea, Huang Yong came out and said, "The clan leader is already waiting inside. Follow me!"
After the group entered the main hall, they saw an old man with sallow skin and a stooped body sitting on a high seat.
Seeing eight people coming in, the old man immediately stood up and cupped his hands downwards, "Little old man Huang Qiyuan, I have met several immortal masters of the sect. If you are far away, please take a seat."
Everyone was a little nervous about going deep into the Huang family's hinterland, but they were relieved to see that Huang Qiyuan looked humble and didn't seem to be faking it.
Ji Liao's eyes flashed slightly and he thought to himself, "As the leader of a clan, is Huang Qiyuan's attitude towards the outer disciples of several sects too much?"
Several people sat down, and then Huang Qiyuan sat down and said with a smile, "Are you here for the annual offerings?"
Wen Changming on the side immediately relaxed when he heard Huang Qiyuan's words. At first, he also thought that Huang Qiyuan's gesture was too much, but when he heard that Huang Qiyuan did not shy away from offering sacrifices, he spoke out about it as soon as he opened his mouth. Most of the worries disappeared immediately, which proved that Huang Qiyuan was well aware of the intentions of the few of them here. If there was something wrong in his heart, he would definitely push back and try not to talk about it.
Thinking of this, he looked at Ji Liao next to him, with a happy expression in his eyes, as if to say, "Maybe I was too cautious before."
At this time, Zheng Tianlong, who was the leader of several people, smiled and said, "Exactly!"
There was a look of embarrassment on Huang Qiyuan's face, "Actually, it's not that our family is unwilling to pay the resources for worship. It's just that the nearby Xu family and Zhao family have been trying to annex our family's territory in the past two years. We prepare for war every day. The money and food expenses It’s too big, and now we really don’t have any extra resources to spare.”
"Clan Chief Huang, just talk to us juniors about this and just promote me. We can't make the decision. Your family has not turned over resources and supplies for two years and has not even heard from the clan. We are here just to inquire." Just a moment." Zheng Tianlong thought for a while and replied.
"Yes, yes," Huang Qiyuan said repeatedly, and then added, "Then I dare to ask the sect if you have any orders?"
"Is this true? We just came to see why you didn't turn over the resources and supplies. As for how the sect will deal with your Huang family after we go back and report, it is beyond our control."
"Ah, then please ask some immortal masters to say a few nice words when they report back."
Zheng Tianlong nodded, and then said, "In this case, we will not stay here any longer and get up immediately to return to life."
When Huang Qiyuan heard this, he immediately showed a look of fear and said, "Hey, how can this happen? You have come all the way from thousands of miles away. How can our Huang family let you go without receiving them? If this spread spreads to other people, It’s time for the family to laugh at our Huang family for not knowing etiquette.”
"This..." Zheng Tianlong hesitated.
"Hey, you are here as a guest. I will arrange a place for you to stay. I will help a few immortal masters tonight. Get some rest. I will be on my way tomorrow." Huang Qiyuan said.
"Okay!" Zheng Tianlong thought for a while and couldn't find a reason to refuse. Moreover, he couldn't just listen to their words about not handing over resources. He had to investigate carefully. Thinking of this, he responded, and then looked at the few people behind him. The person said, "Junior brothers, please look at this..."
Fang Lei, who always had a smile on his face, looked at Hu Lai next to him. When Hu Lai nodded to him, Fang Lei immediately laughed and replied.
"Hahaha, listen to Senior Brother Zheng in everything."
Zheng Tianlong looked at Mo Xiang and Xue Linger who were standing aside.
Mo Xiang also curved her lips and nodded to Zheng Tianlong in agreement.
Zheng Tianlong finally looked at Ji Liao and Wen Changming and said with a smile, "Junior Brother Ji, where are you?"
Ji Liao pondered briefly, "Since everyone agrees to stay here, we can't spoil everyone's interest."
Zheng Tianlong smiled and nodded to Ji Liao, then turned to Huang Qiyuan and said, "Several of my junior brothers have agreed to stay here tonight, so I won't bother you today."
"Hey, it doesn't matter." Huang Qiyuan clapped his hands and then said to Huang Yong, "Yong'er, you can take a few immortal masters to find a good place to rest. I think there is still some time before nightfall. You can bring a few immortal masters there. Feel free to wander around the clan."
"Yes!" Huang Yong raised his hands to Huang Qiyuan, and then said to Ji Liao and others, "Please follow me."
After that, he took the lead and walked out.
Ji Liao and others then left.
After everyone left the hall, Huang Qiyuan's face immediately turned cold. At this time, a person walked out from the back of the hall and raised his hand to Huang Qiyuan, "What should we do about this matter, patriarch?"
"What should we do? We don't know if they have any clues. In that case, let's keep them all." Huang Qiyuan replied coldly.
"It's just that if these people don't return to the sect for a long time, there's no guarantee that the Purple Air Sect will become suspicious." When the man heard what Huang Qiyuan said, he asked worriedly.
"There is no other way. If we can delay it for a while now, let's wait for a while. Everything will be decided by the ancestor after he refines the Ten Thousand Soul Sail." Huang Qiyuan sighed helplessly.
"Yes!" The man responded and was about to leave.
"Wait a minute, find more masters from the clan. I think these people are not low in cultivation. Remember not to let any of them escape." Huang Qiyuan stopped the man and gave instructions.
"Got it!" The man responded and disappeared into the hall.
