Beishan Dashi Valley, Nei Valley
After seven nights of sneaking out of the cave, getting rid of the trap of the sinkhole, they rushed towards the outskirts of the Medicine Valley...
Along the way, he was still full of ideas.
What happened in the past two days was like a dream.
First came the appearance of the mysterious Shadow Clan.
Revealed his true identity as an ancient undead clan.
Then came the heart-wrenching revenge of genocide.
It made him feel as if he was being pushed by an invisible force in the course of his destiny.
Everything is intertwined and confusing...
However, the increase in strength actually proves that all this is not an illusion.
"Don't worry, dear ones. I will avenge you!"
A change of mind
Thinking of the scene he saw in his bloodline memory, Qiye had tears in his eyes and was heartbroken but persisted.
Even if he knew he was at the mercy of fate, he would still bury the gods and demons!
…
After running for a while, I came into a trance.
It has been almost half a month since entering the valley trial.
I don’t know when the fog in the valley started, but it has become very dense, and the white mist is floating in the treetops...
The most urgent thing is to leave this place as soon as possible.
Taking a deep breath, Qiye found that although the miasma in the forest continued to increase, his breathing was not affected at all.
It seems that the Black Demon Flame absorbed the poison-resistant qualities of the Buried Tooth Centipede, making its own body immune.
Previously, the Black Demonic Flame had absorbed first-order monsters and the Human-Faced Demon Spider.
But at that time, Qiye estimated that he was only relatively immune to level 2 ordinary poisons at best, and was still a little weak against level 2 poisons.
Now, after absorbing the poison immunity ability of the Tooth Burial Centipede, he estimated that he should be completely immune to level three ordinary poisons now.
As for the third-level poison, it is still a bit reluctant...
While running quickly, I felt the inside of my body carefully. There was no discomfort. My mind wandered and I was already flying through the forest.
Now, with his strength even further, he clearly felt that the 'Shadow Step and Lingbu Peak' could no longer keep up with the speed he wanted.
It gave him a smooth feeling that couldn't be accelerated with one kick.
In fact, Qiye's speed was already very fast.
In just a few steps, Asakusa lowered her head, the white mist moved slightly, and her figure had already crossed the forest, without touching the morning dew.
This kind of elegant speed can only be surpassed by those with the same "early three levels of combat level".
In a blink of an eye, it’s noon.
Qiye had already rushed to the edge of the outer valley and was about to leave the Medicine Valley.
Along the way, he didn't even see any other sect disciples. From the inner valley to the outer valley, there seemed to be no one except himself.
"Strange? Why didn't I see anyone? Could it be that the trial ended early?"
Qiye wondered in his heart.
Even though the Tooth-Burning Centipede is out and about, it’s not like there’s no one left to see, right?
Such a complete retreat?
When he was about to leave the valley, he slowed down and carefully checked his whole body again to make sure there was nothing wrong before he ran out of the valley at a fast pace with confidence.
Outside the valley entrance, Qiye saw a hundred or so people standing on the messy boulders on the hillside. He couldn't help but froze:
What's happening here?
"Who's coming out of the valley? Why don't you come forward quickly!"
A burly middle-aged man wearing a purple and black gauze robe took a step forward and shouted.
Being stared at by so many people, Qiye was stunned for a while and then quickly calmed down. Before he was sure what was going on, he did not act rashly and walked forward honestly.
"Oh, it's you!"
The middle-aged man recognized Qiye at a glance. He still had some impression of Qiye's conflict with others in the city lord's mansion.
"Back to the city lord, you are just a villain."
Qiye said calmly and calmly.
He recognized the middle-aged man who asked the question as the city lord of Beishan Hongcheng, Beiliang Moxiong.
"Others from Tianyun Sect have already left the valley. Why are you coming out now alone?"
Beiliang Moxiong glanced at Qiye Realm, he was only in the second level of elementary level, and he was very confused.
A junior second-level disciple was able to walk out alive and unharmed.
As soon as the city lord asked this question, Qiye knew:
It seemed that after Elder Ming and the others came out, they did not tell anyone else about how he lured away the Tooth Burying Centipede.
Otherwise, the city lord would not be unaware.
As for the reason, he could vaguely guess.
However, since he didn't say anything, it saved a lot of trouble, and of course he wouldn't ask for trouble himself.
"For your information, Lord City Lord, I got separated from other people in the valley and walked around for a long time before I came out.
Qiye kept the story short and made up a random reason.
"Oh, I see... then you are really lucky! However, all of you from the Tianyun Sect have gone back."
Beiliang Moxiong said a little surprised.
A junior second-level rookie can survive in the valley for half a month. This is definitely not something ordinary people can do.
It seems that this kid is still a bit extraordinary.
Beiliang Moxiong commented in his heart
Of course, if he knew about Qiye's behavior in the valley, he would probably be shocked to the point of doubting his life.
"Have they gone back?"
Hearing that the sect members were gone, Qiye couldn't help but feel sad.
He had risked his life to lure the Tooth Buried Centipede away so that the rest of the sect could escape, but he didn't expect that in exchange they would abandon him and walk away.
However, he soon felt relieved:
In that case, who would believe that he could come back alive, so there was no waiting.
This is also understandable.
But this is the truth, but he still doesn't feel it in his heart.
After all, he was abandoned...
He has never had a deep sense of belonging to the sect.
The harsh living environment since childhood helped Qiye develop an independent and tenacious character.
However, even though he was alone like this, he still longed for a warm harbor in his heart, which could make his heart no longer feel so tired and cold.
You can hold up a big umbrella to protect yourself from the wind and rain.
After all, only the loneliest people can feel the warmth in other people's words.
It's like only ice and snow can feel the melting temperature.
Qiye also longs for a sense of belonging. Even if he doesn't talk much to other people in the sect, being able to listen to lectures with everyone still makes him feel not alone.
Even though he has mature rationality, he still believes that he can continue to integrate into the sect, and that the sect can stand up for him when he encounters danger.
However, the tragic reality suddenly woke him up and made him realize:
He is just a dispensable outer disciple within the sect.
An outcast who can be abandoned at any moment
A self-satisfied wretch...
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but smile inwardly:
I am so naive and think too much...
"Well, you Elder Mingzishan was seriously injured and needed urgent treatment. There is no elixir that can treat serious injuries in Beishan Hongcheng, so Elder Situ led him and everyone back together..."
Seeing the depressed mood of the young man in front of him, Beiliang Moxiong said a few more words.
Think about it, anyone who is abandoned by the sect will feel bad.
"Lord City Lord, it's better to ask about business quickly."
Behind Beiliang Mo Xiong, an old man wearing a white robe urged.
"Speaking of which, little one, have you ever seen that fifth-level monster, the Tooth-Buried Centipede, in the valley?"
Beiliang Moxiong asked, his words softened a lot.
"I didn't see it, but I saw tracks of monster beasts in the outer valley..."
Qiye shook his head and added.
In fact, he didn't need to add, but this time the Tooth Buried Centipede appeared very rarely in the outer valley.
As long as you are not blind, you will not fail to notice this.
"So that's it... Sure enough, that evil beast ran to the outer valley. If it runs out, we people can't stop it! City Lord, please make an idea quickly..."
The old man pulled his beard in panic and thought.
"Yes, Lord City Lord, please come up with an idea quickly!"
Others around him also echoed.
"Everyone, don't panic! The monster hasn't escaped yet, and this city lord will think of a way to subdue that evil beast."
Beiliang Moxiong raised his hand to signal for silence and said comfortingly.
Of course he has realized the seriousness of the matter, but now he must calm down before he can think of countermeasures.
"Little guy, did you find any traces of that tooth-burial centipede when you came out?"
Beiliang Moxiong was also very worried. He was a city lord of a 'fifth-level common city', but he was only at the 'fourth level mid-level fighting spirit level'. He was really far behind in terms of strength against a fifth-level monster.
Although there are many elders from other sects around who are willing to stay.
But if the monster really breaks out and fights for its life, these people will definitely be the first to escape.
The anger of the fifth-level monsters, even those who are also at the 'war spirit level', must avoid its edge.
If that were the case, wouldn't Beishan Hongcheng, which he worked so hard to manage behind his back, turn into ruins?
In the history of the human race, there are many examples of high-level monsters breaking out of forbidden areas and destroying cities.
This time, the tooth-buried centipede ran out of the inner valley abyss and entered the outer valley, making him suddenly alert.
Therefore, after getting this news from the first batch of escapees.
Beiliang Moxiong quickly organized the various forces in the city, and tried his best to retain the sect elders who entered the valley for the trial, promising that if they could kill the Tooth Burial Centipede, his corpse would be used as reward.
In this way, dozens of people stayed outside the valley entrance for several days and nights, but no Tooth Centipede was seen at all.
However, when he unexpectedly discovered Qiye walking out of the valley, he naturally had to stop him and question him carefully.
"Back to my lord, I was just running for my life in a hurry and didn't notice any traces of monsters..."
Qiye didn't want to talk too much. Talking too much would inevitably lead to mistakes.
I casually made up a reasonable excuse to get rid of it.
Beiliang Moxiong didn't think there was anything wrong with Qiye's answer.
How many thoughts can a little kid have on his way to escape?
"Oh, okay... you go down."
Beiliang Moxiong sighed and said, "If you don't know the whereabouts of the monster, you can't judge its intentions, and your worries will still not be relieved."
"What do you mean, sir, can I return to my clan?"
Qiye stepped forward but stopped, and confirmed again.
"if not?"
Beiliang Moxiong asked in reply
"Please forgive me for being brave. Can the Lord of the City lend me a horse?"
Qiye said cautiously.
"Okay! Come on, give him a horse!"
Beiliang Moxiong waved his hand cheerfully.
This place is quite far away from Tianyun Sect, and it would be very difficult for this kid to walk back alone.
He is considered to be on good terms with Tianyun Sect, and providing support to his lone disciples is considered a kind of care.
Soon, the horses came.
"Thank you, sir!"
After Qiye bowed his hands and thanked him, he jumped on his horse and drove away with his whip raised.
"Sir, why did you let him go so easily without asking him any more questions? That boy is the only survivor who has walked out of the Medicine Valley these days?"
Next to him, the old man said a little puzzled.
"I know all this. But, Mr. Yan, I have repeatedly checked and found nothing unusual about that kid.
Maybe that kid was just lucky and escaped with his life.
With my relationship with Tianyun Sect, there is no need to embarrass an outer disciple.
After all, Tianyun Sect is a "Third Class Lord City" sect, and that boy is a disciple of the sect, so he naturally represents the sect's face outside.
Today, if I, as the city lord, force him to stay in front of so many people, it would be tantamount to provoking discord..."
Beiliang Moxiong waved his hand and said.
Of course, he didn't expect to get any valuable clues from a few-year-old Waimen baby.
