Chapter 372 Concealing the truth

Zhuo Yunxi strongly agreed and encouraged his eldest brother Yunhe and second sister Yunfeng to follow Ye Ling, bypassing the areas where the disciples of Dongyang Sect and Luowang Sect were entrenched, and sneaked into the Xishan Prefecture monks.

"Stop! Where are you from?"

Among the monks in Xishan Prefecture City, there were a few sharp-eyed ones who saw that the four of them came by a strange route and looked very strange. They couldn't help but be filled with suspicion and pointed and asked questions.

Zhuo Yunxi's nervous heart jumped into her throat, and she held her second sister's hand tightly. Zhuo Yunfeng was not much better than her, her face changed slightly, and she was a little panicked.

Zhuo Yunhe, as the young master of Qiuyuan Villa, would never lie. He opened his mouth and didn't know what to say. He was so anxious that he was sweating profusely. He just looked at Ye Ling and even looked back at the way he came from, so as to take advantage of the other party's failure. Note, it's still too late to escape.

Ye Ling saw that the three of them were, after all, children of a wealthy family who came from a cultivating immortal family. They had never seen much of the world and could not even handle such a trivial matter. If they were asked to hesitate and deal with it, their secrets would be revealed!

So Ye Ling rushed forward, raised his hands casually, and said calmly: "We are from the southern suburbs of Zhoucheng. We came a step late, and it took a lot of effort to find you! Hey, how is the shopkeeper's business lately? I seem to have I haven’t been to your pharmacy for a while.”

Ye Ling smelled the faint scent of herbal medicine on them. Looking at this person's clothes and the four subordinates around him, it was obvious that he was the shopkeeper and the guys of the medicine shop.

Zhuo Yunhe, brother and sister, looked at Ye Ling with wide eyes, and couldn't help but murmur in their hearts: He was still asking about the way to Xishan Prefecture City this morning! If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes and walked with Ye Ling all the way, they would have thought that Ye Ling and the monk from Xishan Prefecture across the way were old acquaintances!

To their surprise, the shopkeeper opposite immediately put on a smile. He glanced at the simple moon-white satin gown that Ye Ling was wearing, and then at Zhuo Yunhe and the others who were dressed in luxurious clothes. The smile on his face became even brighter. He said with a warm spring breeze:

"Oh, it turned out to be a regular customer! I'm sorry that I was blind and didn't recognize it. I'm so ashamed!"

Zhuo Yunhe and his sister looked at each other in confusion. Seeing the enthusiasm of the drugstore shopkeeper opposite, they could only nod their heads naively.

Ye Ling saw that their performance was really unsatisfactory and that they would inevitably be exposed if they stayed for a long time. He immediately greeted the shopkeeper and said that he was going to find his teammates, and then he led them smoothly into the crowd.

When the monks from nearby Xishan Prefecture saw this, they all mistakenly thought that Ye Ling, Zhuo Yunhe and others were friends of Shopkeeper Yao. They were naturally trustworthy people. They had no objections and no one stopped them.

Ye Ling and his party of four went straight to the entrance of Tianfeng Canyon and found a deserted place to feel the strong mountain wind.

Zhuo Yunhe looked around like a thief, making sure that no one was paying attention to them. Only then did he calm down from the fright he felt along the way. He secretly raised his thumb and praised: "Brother Ye is really a master! We were able to get through this in a fool's errand, thanks to Brother Ye." Adapt to circumstances.”

Zhuo Yunxi looked at the Jindan City Lord in the silver-feathered crane cloak standing at the entrance of Tianfeng Canyon. He was a little scared and said cautiously: "Brother, don't be happy too early. If we are found out by the Xishan City Lord, we still won't be able to escape." ! Brother Ye Ling, why don’t we go behind the rocks over there and try it out!”

Ye Ling flatly refused: "No! There are thousands of monks in Xishan Prefecture City, how can it be possible for the Lord of Jindan City to know everyone? Just under his nose, there is a grand trial. The more you hide, the easier it will be. If this old Jindan monster sees the clues, it will be self-defeating!"

The Zhuo brothers suddenly realized what they were saying, and they were facing the mountain wind at the entrance of Tianfeng Canyon, either sitting cross-legged in meditation, or practicing Taoism and combat skills, and gradually adapted to the mountain wind here.

Zhuo Yunhe took this opportunity to point out to Ye Ling the famous foundation-building expert in Xishan Prefecture, and said in a low voice: "The one wearing a purple skirt is the famous little witch Su Caiying in Xishan Prefecture. Despite her age, she is only a few years older than Yun Xi, but she has reached the Perfect Stage of Foundation Establishment and can be called the number one master among the Foundation Establishment monks in Xishan Prefecture! "

Yun Xi pouted her little mouth and said angrily: "Aren't you just a little better qualified than me, and a few years older than me? Hum, after I practice for a few more years, I will hopefully reach the peak of the ninth level of foundation building." realm!"

Zhuo Yunfeng chuckled: "Pull him down! Do you know that the further you get to the later stage of foundation building, the more difficult it is to improve your cultivation. The spiritual root qualifications of me and my eldest brother are no worse than yours, and we are only at the fifth and seventh levels of foundation building. A little witch like this is the real proud woman of heaven!”

Ye Ling looked at the little witch Su Caiying intently and thought to herself: Although she didn't know how incredible her spiritual root qualifications were, they were definitely not as good as Lu Binglan's single ice spiritual root. As for being able to cultivate to the peak of the ninth level of foundation building at such a young age, she must have practiced martial arts that are very different from Lu Binglan's. Most of them are biased towards the devil's path, and her swordsmanship is slanted. This is why she can practice so fast. People almost call her the little witch.

Ye Ling muttered: "I see that the team she leads is all female cultivators. All of them are strong in cultivation. The worst ones are at the eighth level of foundation building! What are the origins of each of them?"

"There is the Demon Flame Palace built to the east of Xishan. They are the four maids of the Demon Palace left by Palace Master Su after she left Xishan. Their strength should not be underestimated! Brother Ye, please don't look too much, lest they displease them. , causing trouble for us.”

While Zhuo Yunhe was sitting upright and admonishing Ye Ling, he couldn't help but squinting his eyes and secretly took a few more glances.

Seeing this, Ye Ling was secretly amused, but in his heart he was a little more wary of the little witch: "It seems that this little witch Su Caiying has a great background! I don't know how many treasures the master of the Demon Flame Palace left for her. If she has a talisman in hand, , I will never confront her head-on."

Zhuo Yunhe then introduced to Ye Ling the well-known monks in Xishan Prefecture, including a strong team of five hunting monks, as well as the team of Qi Guzhai, the largest chamber of commerce in Xishan Prefecture, who were also composed of It is composed of late-stage foundation-building monks wearing sixth-grade or even top-grade robes.

Ye Ling was meditating not far from the entrance of Tianfeng Canyon, and gradually noticed that the Lord of Jindan City was standing at the entrance of the valley. Every few hours, he would gradually let go of the wind, allowing the mountain wind to become stronger and stronger, blowing through Xishan. Among the monks in the state, some of the monks in the early stages of foundation building were too weak to withstand the strong wind, so they could only stay far away from the wind.

After watching it for a long time, Ye Ling thought to himself: "The Lord of Jindan City in Xishan City has good intentions. Everything he did was to allow the monks in Xishan City to adapt to the strong wind. When the time comes, the foundation-building monks from the five major forces in Xishan City will compete. , Xishan Prefecture must have the upper hand! If I enter Tianfeng Gorge, most of the opponents I will encounter are these Xishan Prefecture monks.”

Therefore, in addition to daily practicing and testing Taoism in strong winds, Ye Ling also secretly paid attention to the Khe Sanh Prefecture monks around him here, and was familiar with their usual Taoism and combat techniques. Once faced with the enemy, he would Take advantage!
