The Peerless Tang Sect’s Sun and Moon Glory
Chapter 158 Star-Moon Grand Canyon
If it were normal, given Xu Sanshi's character, he would make fun of Xu Zihuang. But when it comes to Ma Xiaotao, the situation is different.
Not only Xu Sanshi, but everyone else present had equally wonderful expressions on their faces, but they didn't say anything and sat aside to recover their strength.
Soul masters have been exposed to a wider range of things than ordinary people since childhood, and it is very common for them to mature prematurely.
Needless to say, those inner court disciples who have all grown up, even the youngest Wang Dong, gradually figured out the meaning, and his face turned red with embarrassment.
Ma Xiaotao came to the disciples in the inner courtyard, and Xu Zihuang sat down next to Ning Tian again.
At this time, the powerful role of mental power is reflected.
The problem of excessive yang energy caused by taking Wannian Whale Tape cannot be avoided, but it will not make Xu Zihuang lose his mind. Within a few breaths, he completely suppressed his instinctive impulse. But his skin was still hot. It would take at least several hours to completely dissipate this excessive yang energy.
Ning Tian, who had his legs together and his arms pressing the hem of his skirt and hugging his knees, felt this very clearly. There was obviously a distance of about ten centimeters between the two of them, but the hot breath shone on her as if penetrating the air, and a strange feeling suddenly surged into her heart.
"Tianhuang, what's wrong with you?"
Ning Tian, who had always been elegant and dignified, lost a bit of his usual indifference in his crisp voice. She knew very well that Yu Tianhuang was not that frivolous person, but the way he and Ma Xiaotao looked just now was too easy for people to misunderstand. How could she not care as she had long identified Yu Tianhuang.
But in her heart, reason still prevailed. She has been trained since she was a child as the only candidate to be the successor to the Nine Treasure Glazed Sect, and her temperament is much more mature than her peers. She knew very well that she could never be like that kind of woman who was swayed by emotions and eagerly asked Yu Tianhuang what he had done with Ma Xiaotao just now. But I asked from the point of concern about Yu Tianhuang.
"Do you still remember the piece of ten-thousand-year whale glue I bought at the Jubao Pavilion last time? I just asked Senior Sister Xiaotao to use her Phoenix Flame to help me soften the piece of ten-thousand-year whale glue, and then take it to refine it. It melted." Xu Zihuang met Ning Tian's gaze calmly.
The distance between the two of them was already close, but Ning Tian's slightly trembling long eyelashes were already very close at this side. There was still a nice light fragrance lingering on her body.
Ning Tian's heart trembled, and there was a hint of shame in her aqua blue eyes, but she did not avoid Xu Zihuang's gaze.
With her background and knowledge, she naturally knew that whale gum had another function. Judging from Yu Tianhuang's performance just now, it is obvious that the problem of excessive yang energy in the body has not been solved.
This also means that nothing happened between Yu Tianhuang and Ma Xiaotao.
But she was even more wary of Ma Xiaotao.
Compared with Ma Xiaotao, a talented and powerful inner court disciple, she had no advantage at all.
"Then are you okay now?" Ning Tian put aside his thoughts and recalled a key question. She didn't know whether it was a bit difficult to ask this question, or whether she felt shy because she was so close to Xu Zihuang, but her fair cheeks turned rosy at a speed that was visible to the naked eye.
Of course Xu Zihuang knew what Ning Tian was referring to, and nodded with a smile.
"Don't worry, I am a spiritual soul master, and my will is much stronger than that of ordinary soul masters."
Sitting opposite, Ma Xiaotao had a panoramic view of the intimate interaction between Xu Zihuang and Ning Tian, and the playful smile in his eyes did not diminish.
But from beginning to end, Xu Zihuang did not make any extraordinary move.
At this time, Wang Yan stood up and took out pieces of black food wrapped in leather bags from the soul guide. The quality was really hard to compliment. It was dark, similar to the appearance of the thousand-year-old whale gum at the beginning, and even had a pungent smell.
This is a must-have food for inner court disciples when they go out. It is made from dozens of kinds of heavenly, earthly treasures and medicinal materials. Not only can it quickly restore physical energy, it is also very good for the body. But the taste is really not that good.
"Everyone, please recover your strength as soon as possible. We will continue our journey later." Wang Yan said as he distributed the black food to everyone.
Wang Yan is accompanying the team this time, and the task is not small. In addition to giving on-the-spot command at the continent-wide Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition, they also have to provide supplies and logistics for the students.
Fortunately, everyone is a soul master, and they are not the kind of people who cannot endure hardship.
Just water and some simple food, plus the black lumps that Wang Yan distributed to everyone. This lunch can be considered as a matter of course.
After resting for about half an hour, everyone continued on their way. An hour later, everyone finally arrived at the border between the Tianhun Empire and the Star Luo Empire. There is a Star Luo Empire military camp located here, blocking everyone's way.
Everyone stopped to rest here. Dai Yueheng, the eldest son of Duke White Tiger, entered the military camp alone and lent everyone a dozen military-specific flying soul guides.
The next thing that needs to be done is to use the flying soul guide to rush to the Mingdou Mountains. During the lunch break, Wang Yan will just pass everyone. No one was surprised by this.
The flying soul guides borrowed by Dai Yueheng looked like iron boxes and were extremely bulky. It is far less compact and lighter than the flying soul guide used by Xu Zihuang and He Caitou when they went to test the power of the customized soul cannon outside Shrek Academy.
However, what Dai Yueheng brought back was not only these dozen flying soul guides, but also a map drawn with sheepskin and a particularly important piece of news.
Dai Yueheng looked at everyone with a serious face and spread the map in his hand on the ground.
"According to the latest news received by the Western Group Army stationed near the Mingdou Mountains, traces of the activities of the Death Messenger Bandit Group were discovered near the Xingyue Grand Canyon in the Mingdou Mountains. This was discovered by the Western Group Army during reconnaissance from the air. Yes. Father knows our purpose and personally sent people here to wait for us a few days ago just to convey this news. At the same time, he also brought this detailed map of the Mingdou Mountains."
The Mingdou Mountains were formed by the collision between Douluo Continent and Sun Moon Continent four thousand years ago. From north to south, it was like a natural barrier blocking the Star Luo Empire and the Sun and Moon Empire. These two empires also use the Mingdou Mountains as their national boundaries.
The Mingdou Mountains stretch continuously and occupy almost two-thirds of the border. The other third is the Ming Dou Forest, which is about half the size of the Star Dou Forest. The Mingdou Forest is rich in mutated soul beasts. Xu Zihuang and the rest of the Imperial Dragon Soul Mentor Group passed through the outskirts of the Mingdou Forest, and they have a deep understanding of this.
The dispute between the Sun Moon Empire and the Star Luo Empire does not exist in the Ming Dou Forest, but in the presence of several extremely precious rare metal veins in the Ming Dou Mountains. It is the kind of strategic material level that has caused constant conflicts between the two countries.
The terrain of the Mingdou Mountains is complex, and the terrain is extremely steep. Even the armies of the two countries are only stationed in relatively flat areas. If ordinary people want to pass through it, they can only pass through the Xingyue Grand Canyon.
The caravans that were robbed by the Death Messenger Bandits all disappeared in the Star-Moon Grand Canyon.
Wang Yan checked the map and instantly understood the meaning of Dai Yueheng's words.
"Does the Death Messenger bandit group intend to rob the caravan again?"
"Teacher Wang, this is just one of the possibilities." Dai Yueheng said while his eyes moved to Ma Xiaotao. Ma Xiaotao was the commander-in-chief of this operation. Although he was very dissatisfied with Ma Xiaotao for taking his position as captain of the selected team, he was still able to handle such a big matter.
This time, Ma Xiaotao should make the decision.
"Xiao Tao, what do you think?"
"These evil soul masters are so arrogant. The original intention of our Shrek Supervisory Group's existence is to punish evil and promote good. Those caravans may be in danger, and we cannot just sit idly by and ignore it. Besides, the Mingdou Mountains are so vast. It’s not that easy to find the lair of the Death Messenger bandits. Since the source of the news is reliable enough, we must check it out.”
Ma Xiaotao said angrily. Although she has a hot temper, her thinking is very clear at this time.
Wang Yan glanced at Ma Xiaotao appreciatively, and then nodded in agreement.
"I agree with Xiao Tao."
As he spoke, he looked at the others.
"Do you have any different opinions?"
No one raised any doubts.
Wang Yan continued: "Then it's decided. The students from the outer courtyard will first practice using the flying soul guide, and the students from the inner courtyard will be responsible for guidance and protection. After they are proficient, they will rush to Xingyue City with all their strength."
Xingyue City is the city closest to the Xingyue Grand Canyon in the Mingdou Mountains. The size of the city is not large, not even reaching the level of a main city. But because it is close to the Star-Moon Grand Canyon, the only passage between the Sun-Moon Empire and the Star-Luo Empire, it has always been a transit city for trade between the two empires.
Even if there are bandits in the Mingdou Mountains, because of the huge benefits, there are still caravans willing to take the risk to pass through it every once in a while. There is no way, the Star Luo Empire and the Sun Moon Empire are completely blocked by the Ming Dou Mountains and the Ming Dou Great Forest. If you don't pass through the Xing Yue Grand Canyon, you have to go around a long way to enter the Tianhun Empire before you can turn around. Dao entered the territory of the Sun and Moon Empire.
This journey is more than a thousand miles, and the cost is too high. That's why these caravans take chances and take risks.
Dai Yueheng originally wanted to build a good relationship by helping Xu Zihuang equip the flying soul guide. But when he saw Xu Zihuang, Ning Tian and He Caitou taking out three more exquisite-looking flying soul guides from their soul guides, he had to give up this idea.
Xu Zihuang and the others have already mastered the flying soul guide, thus saving them the effort of practicing.
On the contrary, Beibei, Xu Sanshi, Jiang Nannan and others were trying with trepidation. It still takes a certain amount of time to practice to use the flying soul guide skillfully. Wang Dong, who has a flying martial spirit, looks much better. Although his cultivation level is the weakest, he is the first among Beibei and others to use it skillfully.
It took nearly half an hour of practice before everyone fully mastered the use of the flying soul guide.
Immediately, everyone formed a soul-saving herringbone and flew towards the Mingdou Mountains in the northwest of the Star Luo Empire at full speed.
But there was an episode in the middle. Mr. Xuan felt that the flying speed of everyone was too slow, so he flew with them for several hours.
The sun sets, the moon rises, and night falls.
Streams of brilliant tail flames streaked across the night sky, carrying bursts of piercing sounds, illuminating the night sky like daylight.
More than ten rays of light passed through an ancient and dense forest and landed on a relatively flat area.
This is the western border of the Star Luo Empire. From a distance, you can see the beautiful outline of a brightly lit city, and beyond that is the endless Mingdou Mountains. It's mind-blowing.
However, at this time, everyone did not have the leisure to appreciate the scenery in front of them. Although Mr. Xuan only flew with everyone for less than two hours, everyone was slow to calm down.
With Xu Zihuang's strong physical fitness, his stomach couldn't stop churning. He Caitou, Beibei, and Xu Sanshi were so large that they almost vomited bile.
The disciples in the inner courtyard were relatively better off, but they were also pale.
Wang Dong and Ning Tian, who only had Soul Master cultivation, collapsed directly on the ground.
And the culprit of everything, Mr. Xuan, has long been missing.
Taking a deep breath, Wang Yanqiang, who had calmed down a bit, gathered his energy and said to everyone: "Not far ahead is Xingyue City. Let's take care of each other and go to the hotel in the city to book a room and rest. Xiao Tao, Dai Yaoheng, Qin We will go with me later to inquire about the news and see if there are any caravans entering the Star-Moon Grand Canyon recently."
A caravan that wants to enter the Xingyue Grand Canyon must first stop in Xingyue City.
"Yes, Teacher Wang."
Everyone responded, but Jiang Nannan was a little hesitant.
Wang Yan, who was facing everyone, seemed to see Jiang Nannan's concerns and smiled gently.
"All the expenses along the way will be reimbursed by the college. There is no need to save money for the college."
Wang Yan easily resolved Jiang Nannan's embarrassment with a few words in a slightly joking tone.
But because of physical discomfort, everyone's interest was not as high as before.
Dai Yueheng supported the largest He Caitou, while Chen Zifeng and Yao Haoxuan took care of Xu Sanshi and Beibei. Jiang Nannan, who is slender and light-weight, received help from Xixi, who was also a spirit master of the agility and attack system.
Xu Zihuang originally wanted to support Ning Tian, but as the leading teacher and the class teacher of Xu Zihuang and Wang Dong, Wang Yan had long wanted to ease the relationship between Yu Tianhuang and Wang Dong, so he suddenly said.
"Yu Tianhuang, please support Wang Dong. Just leave Ning Tian to Ling Luochen."
Xu Zihuang was stunned and subconsciously looked at Wang Dong not far away, while Wang Dong, who was pale, also looked at Xu Zihuang.
Their eyes met, and the atmosphere was slightly awkward. Since being assigned to the same class, the communication between the two has been pitiful. Their relationship is really not that close.
At this time, Wang Yan's voice came again.
"Yu Tianhuang, Wang Dong. Do you have any questions?"
"No, Teacher Wang." Xu Zihuang responded with a normal expression, came to Wang Dong's side, lifted Wang Dong's arm and put it on his shoulder, saying softly.
"Let's go, Wang Dong."
Wang Dong froze and snorted unconsciously. He turned his head unnaturally and pursed his lips tightly, but he did not reject Xu Zihuang's kindness.
Along the way, the two of them had their own thoughts.
Xu Zihuang's heart was filled with thousands of thoughts and he felt heavy.
In the situation just now, he was completely in a dilemma. Refuting Wang Yan's face and ruining his disguised image in Shrek Academy was the next best thing. The main reason is that if he shows too much resistance to Wang Dong, it will be too easy for someone to notice something strange.
It is very likely that every move he made from the beginning was seen by this selfless God-King.
I forgot to name the chapters, I'm speechless.
