Zhuang Yan did not sleep well last night because he was on night duty.
The next day, after walking for half a day in a daze, he suddenly heard the leader shout,"We'll be entering the Xuan Yuan Tomb soon.”
"Yes," the soldiers replied loudly.
The loud sound wave swept away Zhuang Yan's sleepiness. He looked up and heard someone talking beside him.
"We're finally at Xuanyuan Tomb.”Brother Wang heaved a sigh of relief.
Zhuang Yan squeezed out a smile." Yeah, we're almost there. Brother Wang will buy you a drink when we get there."”
Brother Wong's eyes lit up when he heard that. He rubbed his hands and said,"Kid, you know how to cause trouble!"
"You're too kind. We've been relying on Brother Wang to take care of us all the way. However, there is one thing that brother doesn't understand. Why can't we make a racket in this Xuanyuan Tomb?”Zhuang Yan took the opportunity to ask around.
After Brother Wong heard this, he tilted his head and stared at Zhuang Yan. His heart skipped a beat. Did I say something wrong?
However, Brother Wong's subsequent reaction made him heave a sigh of relief.
The other party pointed at him with his index finger and then said in an educational tone,"You brat, if you didn't have a head on one shoulder and look like a human, I would have suspected that you were a demon. You didn't even know that the ancestor of our human race, the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan, was buried here?”
Zhuang Yan reacted quickly and quickly covered it up,"Yes, who doesn't know the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan? It's just that I didn't know the Yellow Emperor was buried here.”
"Truly ignorant." Zhuang Yan was despised again.
。。。。。。
At this moment, an illusory light shadow appeared in the air in the Xuanyuan Tomb. It was a vague human figure, but it did not have legs. Instead, it had a snake tail.
The figure held a small banner in his hand. It was clearly an extraordinary item.
"Nine-tailed fox, come out and see me.”The light shadow floated in the air and a voice shouted out as if it had the help of heaven and earth. Although it was a female voice, it did not appear delicate, but solemn and heavy.
"Hu hu ~" Just as he finished speaking, a gust of wind swept over. Then, a snow-white fox crawled out from under the Xuanyuan Tomb. It dragged nine furry tails behind it, looking very cute.
As soon as the fox demon appeared, she turned into a beautiful woman and knelt on the ground. She bowed her head and said,"Greetings, Saint."
"Nine Tails, the Shang Dynasty is about to collapse, and it is the destiny of the heavens that King Wu conquered Zhou. I order you to go and disturb the palace and destroy the foundation of the court.”
Although the figure's tone was calm, the moment he spoke, it was as if the fate of the country and the rise and fall of the country were all in his mind.
The Nine-Tailed Fox did not dare to refute and could only reply,""Yes, sir!" However, after hesitating for a moment, she still said carefully.
" Sage, although I have cultivated for a thousand years, I am a demon. If I enter the Imperial Palace with the transformation technique, I am afraid that the dragon Qi of the human path will attack and it will be difficult to hide my demon body. Moreover, Wen Zhong, the Grand Tutor of the Shang Kingdom, is a disciple of Sage Tongtian and has opened his Heavenly Eye. I am afraid that I will be easily seen through by him and it will be difficult for me to escape.”
After hearing this, the figure pondered for a while before slowly saying,"The change of human path is already set in stone. Although the dragon qi has dissipated, there are still some foundations left. Your worries are reasonable."
"I have predicted that Su Daji, the daughter of Su Hu, the Marquis of Jizhou, will enter the palace soon. She is an ancient immortal who has experienced the tribulation in the prehistoric times. I have already obtained her consent.”
"This way, I can ensure that you are safe. In addition, I can take you in as an in-name disciple and teach you the first three levels of the Book of the Chaos. With the protection of my luck, when the Shang Kingdom collapses, you can escape smoothly.”
When the Nine-tailed Fox heard this, she immediately heaved a sigh of relief and bowed again."Thank you, Saint Nuwa, for your mercy. I will not disappoint you.”
。。。。。。
After Zhuang Yan and his team entered the Xuanyuan Tomb, it became much quieter. At the same time, he felt that the aura in the air was a little different.
However, nothing happened during the day.
When night fell, they set up camp at the Xuanyuan Tomb just like last night. However, Zhuang Yan was not on night duty today. It was Bai Cang and Song Yan who were arranged to be on duty tonight.
This was exactly what they had expected. Their people were there every night to prevent Su Daji from being rescued or having an accident at night, and they would not know anything.
He could finally have a good sleep.
After he was done, he covered himself with the blanket and lay comfortably in the tent.
Zhuang Yan still could not believe what had happened in the past few days. It was so bizarre that even novels would not dare to write about it.
Just as his eyelids were getting heavier and he was about to fall into a dream, he suddenly felt someone push him a few times.
Zhuang Yan propped himself up and rubbed his sleepy eyes. With the help of the faint light from the fire outside the tent, he recognized the person who had come-Bai Cang.
"Get up quickly. There's a situation." After saying that, he turned around and walked towards another tent, probably to inform someone else.
Although Zhuang Yan did not know what had happened, he did not dare to delay. He quickly put on his clothes and left the tent.
He saw that Ning Yunsheng and Old Wu were also outside, and Song Yan was standing far away from the tent. The black demon blade was already unsheathed, and he was holding it in his hand, quietly watching the night in the forest.
"What's wrong?" Zhuang Yan walked over to Ning Yunsheng and asked.
Ning Yunsheng and Old Wu looked at each other and said in unison,""I don't know. We just woke up.”
At this moment, Bai Cang led Qin Haiyun over and explained,""Song Yan said that there's something nearby."
"Something?"
"Something? What's that?"
。。。。。。
Bai Cang helplessly spread his hands and replied,""I don't know either. Let's wait and see.”
The few of them nodded and walked towards Song Yan. Meanwhile, Song Yan was still standing on the spot, his saber tightly gripped in his hand.
"Brother Song, did you discover anything?”Bai Cang asked from a few steps away.
Song Yan did not answer him. Everyone was used to it. From the beginning, this person seemed a little cold.
"It can't be that he's talking nonsense, right?" Qin Haiyun muttered in a low voice, but he did not dare to say it out loud. After all, his cultivation was not as high as anyone else's.
Although he was about to break through to aperture opening state, he still hadn't broken through. One state was a long way away, crossing realms wasn't something that could be done easily.
"He's here!" Just as everyone was beginning to suspect something, Song Yan spat out two words.
Then, a few swishing sounds came from the dense forest ahead. It seemed that there were animals running through the dense forest in the darkness.
Following that, a clear and melodious pipa sound that resembled the murmuring of a stream was heard. Everyone instantly felt their hearts in turmoil, their vision blurring, and they staggered and fell to the ground.
The sound of a sharp blade cutting through the air dispelled the influence of the pipa music.
" I'll deal with it, you guys deal with the others." Song Yan removed the Bewitching Sound and then rushed into the forest.
After he left, Zhuang Yan and the others immediately took out their weapons and spread out to be on guard.
"Chirp chirp!"
A few shadows rushed out of the forest. Just when everyone thought that they were just ordinary animals, Bai Cang shouted.
" Be careful, it's a demon..."
Before he could finish his sentence, a streak of pure white sword Qi slashed towards a fox.
The fox's running footsteps paused. It opened its mouth and spat out a ball of light that hit the sword qi. The two collided and exploded. The intense qi force pushed the people around them away.
" Ashen Mysterious Style!" Qin Haiyun raised the long saber in his hand and waved it, drawing the four foxes into his attack range.
"Brother Ning and Old Wu, you two work together to stall one. Brother Zhuang, go and take care of my sister and the others.”
Zhuang Yan heard this and stopped in his tracks. He ran towards the tent where Su Daji and the others were in without saying anything else to prevent the other party from creating a diversion.
Along the way, he shouted,"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
The voice spread throughout the entire camp, and the quiet camp instantly became chaotic. Many people rushed out with weapons in their hands before they even put on their armor and helmets.
"Where are the enemies?" The leading general also rushed out of a tent. His armor was neat and he held a spear in his hand. It was obvious that he had not taken off his armor when he was sleeping.
Zhuang Yan immediately stepped forward and replied," Reporting to the general, there are a few demons attacking the camp. Over there, our brothers are holding them off for the time being. This subordinate will come back to inform everyone and also check on the situation on the Empress 'side to prevent the other party from creating a diversion."”
The general had planned to go and support Qin Haiyun and the others, but after hearing Zhuang Yan's words, he suddenly remembered that Su Daji's safety was the most important.
Thinking of this, he pointed at Zhuang Yan and ordered,"You, follow me to protect the Empress. The rest of you, guard the surroundings and don't panic!”
