The fairies I flirted with in the game became real?!
Chapter 710 - 710: The Same PurposeIn the snow-capped mountains and forests, Miss Third sniffed around lying on the thick snow.
The sense of smell of wild boars is already sensitive, not to mention hers as a cultivator boar spirit.
She lay on the ground sniffing for a long while, occasionally digging out a corpse.
Soon, within a radius of a hundred yards, she had dug pits all over, unearthing over a hundred fox corpses.
These foxes had different fur colors: red, yellow, white, gray; all were present.
The densely packed bodies spread over the ground, though macabre, proved to be quite a sight.
After viewing, Miss Third couldn’t help but be astounded.
“…So many foxes, is this like a mass grave for wild foxes? Where did all these fox corpses come from?”
Li Muyang, looking at the fox corpses scattered around, grew more solemn.
The wounds on these fox corpses varied, but all were made by cultivators.
Were they killed by Yu Chan?
Did the foxes attack Yu Chan?
Li Muyang lifted a fox corpse and handed it to Miss Third: “Can you track other foxes in the forest based on this scent? There should be live foxes in these mountains.”
Li Muyang’s actions made Miss Third stare wide-eyed.
“Do you really think I’m a hunting dog? I’m a wild boar! Since when do boars have such abilities?”
Li Muyang had to put down the fox corpse and search by himself.
He took Miss Third deeper into the woods, seeking traces of other foxes.
Could it be that Yu Chan was attacked and defeated by the foxes?
But as Li Muyang searched around, he couldn’t find any more clues.
Amidst the vast snowy forest, covered in snow, immaculately white, not even human footprints could be seen.
Li Muyang waited in the ridge for an entire afternoon, but Yu Chan didn’t show up. Feeling uneasy, he decided to venture into Jiuyuan City to investigate.
He left the mountain ridges with Miss Third, heading towards the distant Jiuyuan City.
The old, damaged walls of Jiuyuan City came into view.
Under the drifting snow outside the city, there were hardly any passersby.
In this cold, freezing weather, people were hiding in their homes, warming up by the fire.
Li Muyang and Miss Third entered Jiuyuan City underground, silently.
Compared to the desolation outside, the city was relatively lively.
Inns and tea houses were filled with laughter and noises.
Occasionally, some cultivators who were not afraid of the cold wind could be seen in the markets.
Li Muyang and Miss Third walked among the crowd, attracting no attention.
This two-year-old child’s body did not match people’s recognition of Li Muyang, and no one recognized him.
…That was the theory.
When Li Muyang passed an alley, a young man stumbled out.
He hastily grabbed Li Muyang by the hand and whispered anxiously, “Lord Mad Demon, please come with me…”
The appearance of the young man was utterly abrupt, as if he had materialized out of thin air.
Even the Divine Sense of Li Muyang failed to detect how the young man had appeared.
He and Miss Third exchanged a glance, tacitly following the young man into the dark alley.
The snow was thick in the alley, but the young man left no footprints as he walked on it.
He led Li Muyang and Miss Third to the end of the alley, where there was a solid wall, but the young man jumped right onto it.
Then disappeared into the wall.
Li Muyang raised an eyebrow and jumped in after him.
This boy was none other than Qu Yan, who had originally accompanied Li Yuechan to the world beyond, Ark.
He was an ardent fan of Li Muyang, greatly admiring the deeds of Li Muyang.
It was unexpected to encounter him here; after Li Muyang jumped into the wall, he entered a dark passage.
The boy stood by the passage waiting, and after seeing Li Muyang and the third young lady enter, he continued to lead the way.
“It’s too dangerous, Lord Mad Demon, I didn’t expect you to appear in Jiuyuan City.”
The boy said with lingering fear: “It’s good that I saw you first, if Yan Xiaoru, that demon, saw you in the city, the consequences would be unimaginable!”
The boy’s words made Li Muyang frown: “Is Yan Xiaoru also in the city now?”
“And what about Yuechan? She asked me to wait for her at Lonely Pine Ridge outside the city, why didn’t I see her when I got there, instead, there were only fox corpses scattered around?”
While Li Muyang asked, he also observed the dark passage in front of him.
This place was no longer the real world; it was clearly a special secret world.
A secret realm in Jiuyuan City?
Or was it temporarily opened by Yuechan?
But did that girl have the power to open a secret realm?
After Li Muyang asked, Qu Yan had not yet answered when they walked out of the dark passage.
Outside the passage was an even darker and colder underground cavern.
Between the solid cold stones, even a gloomy underground dark river flowed.
Three weak, scarred patients lay among the stones of the underground cavern, looking very bad, motionless like corpses.
And Li Yuechan, the cheap sister Li Muyang kept thinking about, was sitting paralyzed in a corner of the cavern, weakly leaning against the cold stone walls, her face pale and frail.
Upon seeing Li Muyang appear, the girl squeezed out a strained smile and said, “Brother, you’ve come…”
Seeing the girl’s figure, Li Muyang immediately breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as if a weight had been lifted from his heart.
He quickly walked to Yuechan’s side, looking at his weak and tired sister, and asked, “Were you attacked by foxes? It looks very bad.”
Though there were no flesh wounds, Li Yuechan’s weakened state did not look promising, as if drained of essence and needing a long time to recover.
Hearing Li Muyang’s question, the girl bitterly shook her head and said, “It wasn’t the foxes, rather those foxes were just an unwarranted disaster.”
“The one who killed the foxes, and hurt me, is the same person.”
Weakly looking at her brother, Li Yuechan sighed, “The Elder Yan after becoming a demon, is indeed terrifying and insane.”
Beside them, Qu Yan gritted his teeth angrily: “She also abducted Sister Ping, and imprisoned the parents of Lord Mad Demon, I will never let this female demon off!”
The boy was full of fervor and indignation.
Li Muyang looked at Yuechan, who sighed, “Sister Ping is a friend who came here with me, kidnapped by Elder Yan. Ideally, Elder Yan wouldn’t kill her.”
“But after becoming a demon, Elder Yan’s actions are always unexpected; even if she does not kill Sister Ping, Sister Ping might still suffer terribly…”
Li Muyang remained silently solemn, looking at the several injured patients in the cavern, thinking about the over a hundred fox corpses at Lonely Pine Ridge.
All these were the handiwork of Yan Xiaoru…
“Why would Elder Yan target you guys?” Li Muyang could not understand: “Is there some conflict between you?”
Yan Xiaoru’s arrival in Jiuyuan City was already very puzzling.
Now, she’s also in conflict with Li Yuechan… That’s even stranger.
Yuechan wouldn’t normally instigate trouble.
Faced with Li Muyang’s inquiry, Yuechan bitterly chuckled and said helplessly,
“Elder Yan’s visit to Jiuyuan City this time, including her abduction of my uncle and aunt, was also targeting the foxes.”
Looking at Li Muyang, Yuechan somberly added, “Her purpose, turned out to be the same as ours…”
