"Are you really not going to stay for a few more days?”Xu Jinghua asked reluctantly. At this moment, Xu Jinghua was already the new City Lord of Xia City. She was dressed in a peacock official robe and wore a feather crown. Her face was like a spring garden, and she was extremely shy. What was even more rare was the decisive and decisive aura between her eyebrows, which showed her identity and bearing.
Chu Wuyou shook her head and walked in front of Xu Jinghua,""We still have more important things to do. It's really not convenient for us to stay for long.”
"Then where is the emperor going next?”Knowing that he couldn't keep the person in front of him, he could only ask Chu Wuyou about her plans.
Chu Wu You looked ahead and said,"Ling City."”
The sound of horse hooves could be heard as they galloped into the distance. Xu Jinghua waved at Chu Wuyou's back from afar and said in her heart,""Bon voyage."
In the morning light, Ming Yi also waved at Chu Wuyou's back.""See you again."
Chu Wuyou and the High Priest had missed the inn because they were busy rushing. They could only find a flat land in the wilderness and start a bonfire. They planned to spend the night like this and continue their journey at dawn.
After settling down, the High Priest found some wild fruits and handed them to Chu Wuyou to satisfy her hunger. The night was quiet, even the sound of each other's breathing could be heard. Chu Wu caressed her Qing Huan and slept with her clothes on.
"Ssss." Not long after, Qing Huan, who had been very obedient just now, began to shout restlessly. Chu Wu You opened her eyes and looked at the High Priest, but she realized that the High Priest had no reaction. In front of the bonfire, there was an old man in ragged clothes. The old man's hair was white, his body was thin, his face was full of wrinkles, and his teeth were black and yellow. He was eating the wild fruit that Chu Wu You had eaten.
"There's no need to wake him up. Let him sleep for a while.”The old man didn't even look at Chu Wuyou as he said.
"Who are you?" Chu Wu You shouted coldly.
The old man laughed and said,"Girl, you want to know who I am?" Let's exchange a few moves first."
After she finished speaking, she threw away the wild fruit. The palm wind was fierce and came towards Chu Wu You. Chu Wu You quickly got up to dodge and raised her leg to kick the old man. The old man also smiled and dodged. The palm wind went straight for Chu Wu You's heart. Chu Wu You quickly reached out to block it, but Qing Huan on her wrist took the blow. The palm wind was sharp and dense. After a few moves, Chu Wu You could no longer block it. Just as she was about to use her wits to take it, the old man retracted his palm and said,"I didn't expect you to have the power of a spirit beast at such a young age.”
"Who exactly are you?" Chu Wu You asked as she stroked her chest.
The old man didn't seem to hear him and asked blankly,""Is there anything else to eat? I'm starving."
"Is it food?" Chu Wu's eyes lit up, his mind spinning a hundred times as he said,""Tell me who you are, and I'll give you food.”
"I am your ancestor." the old man said with a smile.
"How dare you." Chu Wu You shouted loudly. If he was in court right now, he would have his entire family killed.
"After talking for so long, do you have anything to eat? If not, I'll leave.”the old man said, sounding a little aggrieved.
Chu Wu You took out a piece of rice cake from her pocket. She had planned to use it during a critical period. Now, it seemed that she could only give it to this old man so that he wouldn't harm others.
"Wake up first, and this rice cake will be yours.”Chu Wu You said to him.
The old man was still smiling as he walked towards the High Priest. He pointed a few times and the High Priest fell to the ground. Chu Wu You was about to help him up but was stopped by the old man,""Don't worry, he'll wake up soon. Give me the rice cakes.”
Chu Wuyou threw the rice cake to the old man. The old man took the rice cake and immediately ate it with relish,""It's all that old man Mu Fengyi's fault. He locked me up for so many years and didn't give me anything to eat.”
Mufeng Yi? This was the old city lord of Hill City. What was his relationship with this old man?
Chu Wu You approached the old man and said,"You came from Ling City?"”
"Yes, I am." The old man finished the rice cake in a few bites. He clapped his hands and looked at Chu Wu You."Are you guys going to Ling City? That Hill City Lord is a bad person."
"What's your relationship with the City Lord of Hill City?”
The old man chopped off his feet and shouted,"Little child, don't ask around."”
Chu Wu You was already suppressing her anger as she spoke to him. Seeing him like this, she said in a bad temper,"Since you're full, you can go now. We still need to rest.”
The old man saw Chu Wu You's attitude and shouted unhappily,""You little girl, this old man has finally eaten his fill, and you want to chase me away?”
At this moment, Chu Wu You's head was getting bigger and bigger. She couldn't beat him. Fortunately, the other party didn't have the intention to kill her, so she simply let him be.
The old man snorted and sat on the mound. He took out a pipe and smoked. He didn't forget to strike up a conversation with Chu Wuyou."Little girl, what's your name? I can see that your aptitude is not bad, and you have the power of a spirit beast in your body. In time, you will definitely be an expert among experts.”
Chu Wu You didn't want to pay attention to him and turned her head away. The old man saw that she didn't answer and asked again.
Chu Wu was unwilling to be disturbed and said helplessly,""Worriless."
Seeing her answer, the old man laughed out loud."Worriless, good name. I like it.”
Chu Wu rolled her eyes at him and did not say anything. When she turned around, she saw that the High Priest had woken up. He looked at Chu Wu You with a confused expression and pretended to get up.
Chu Wuyou shook her head indiscernibly at him, indicating that he should not speak. The High Priest, who was staring at Chu Wuyou, immediately understood what Chu Wuyou meant. She closed her eyes and pretended to sleep. However, these small actions did not escape the old man's eyes. He smoked his pipe and said,"Young man, since you're already awake, don't pretend to be asleep.”
Seeing that the old man had seen through him, the High Priest no longer pretended to sleep. He stood up and bowed to the old man,"May I know who Senior is?"
The old man knocked the pipe on the soles of his shoes and said,""Meeting each other is fate. Today, the three of us meeting is also the will of the heavens. There's no harm in telling you. My surname is Nie, and my name is Wuhui.”
Nie Wuhui. Hearing this name, Chu Wuyou was greatly shocked. This person had once caused a bloody storm in Ling City and was wanted by the City Lord of Ling City. He was finally captured and locked up in the barrier mountain of Ling City. Now that he had escaped, could it be that he had some purpose?
When the High Priest heard this, he frowned. Of all the people he could meet, he actually met Nie Wuhui. He was even more difficult to deal with than Mufeng Yi. What made him even more speechless was that these two were fellow disciples. They had fallen out because of some matters and became enemies. Nie Wuhui's Soulless Palm was the nightmare of all martial artists. According to rumors, those who suffered from his Soulless Palm would not live for more than a few minutes before their bodies exploded and they died.
At this moment, Nie Wuhui was as if nothing had happened. He hummed a tune and lay on the slope, looking at the moon. No one knew what he was thinking.#
