Chapter 324
Was Yaoling Valley taken away by immortal monks a thousand years ago?
It's taking away, not surrendering?
Yu Xi pondered and said, "It is rumored outside that Yaoling Valley is one of the small sects affiliated with Xuanxing Sect."
Upon hearing this, Shu Nanzhi's eyes turned red with anger: "Nonsense, Grandpa said it! They were the ones who killed the Tiger Demon Lord and took the Medicine Spirit Valley away from us!"
After Shu Nanzhi said this, everyone realized that the original owner of Yaoling Valley was actually a demon.
However, in the past, people of all races could practice in the immortal sect, so it was not surprising if they were demons.
"Our clan leader is friends with the Tiger Demon Lord. The Tiger Demon Lord guards the Medicine Spirit Valley, and we tree demons grow spiritual herbs and medicinal herbs. As long as there are plants in this world, there is nothing we can't grow!"
Shu Nanzhi was very proud when she talked about this, but soon she lowered her head again:
"But the Tiger Demon is dead. Grandfather said that the monks peeled off his skin and broke his bones. The entire Tiger Demon clan was slaughtered, even the newborn babies were not spared.
“Without Lord Tiger Demon, we tree demons cannot defeat the cultivators. If we want to survive, we can only grow spiritual herbs for them. We have been enslaved for thousands of years.
"I am the last tree demon born in the Holy Land. Not long after I was born, the Holy Land was discovered by monks and destroyed into its current state."
Hearing this, Zhong Xian vaguely felt that something was wrong: "Judging from your age, did the immortal sect monks discover the holy land in the past few years?"
Shu Nanzhi shook his head: "I am already two hundred years old!"
The tree demon clan is considered an adult at the age of one thousand, and is still a child at the age of two hundred.
Yu Xi coughed, thinking back to the demonic power that Shu Nanzhi had unleashed when he trapped Zhong Xian and the others. It was indeed not to be underestimated.
Shu Nanzhi is still very wary of Zhong Xian. In her eyes, although Zhong Xian is with the Demon God, there is no smell of plants on his body, so she cannot be sure whether the other party is a follower of the Demon God.
And Zhong Xian is a monk!
Shu Nanzhi couldn't tell the difference between the demons and the immortals, he only knew that cultivators were bad people.
But because Yu Xi was there, she did not attack Zhong Xian, but continued to say to Yu Xi:
"After I was born, there weren't many people left in the tree demon clan. Grandpa hid me underground, and the monks never knew of my existence. But now... now Grandpa can't hide me anymore, and Grandpa and I are the only ones left in the tree demon clan."
When Yu Xi heard that the tree demon clan was almost extinct, he suddenly felt uncomfortable.
She couldn't describe the feeling, it was just a sudden choking.
She approached the southern branch of the tree. "So you've been living underground for the past few hundred years?"
"Yeah." Shu Nanzhi nodded, not thinking there was anything wrong with this.
"There are monks outside. If I'm caught, they'll put a chain around my neck. If I don't obey, the chain will catch fire. We're most afraid of fire. Grandpa said that if you're chained, you're not alive anymore."
Zhong Xian seemed to be uninterested in these things and didn't like to listen. After hearing this, he tilted his head slightly, yawned with some boredom, walked towards the river, and soon walked away.
Su Xianyun and Gu An glanced at him and saw that he was standing by the river not far away, leaning over and looking at the dirty water with interest, so they ignored him.
Ji Zhi sympathetically said, "I don't like being chained either, but it's okay if it's my sister."
Yu Xi believed that the most urgent task now was to find Ji Zhi's soul. If Yaoling Valley was now controlled by the cultivators of Xuanxing Sect, then if they wanted to find Ji Zhi's soul, they would have to rush in and kill their way in.
"Is Yaoling Valley now full of immortal monks?" she asked.
Shu Nanzhi pursed his lips tightly, his brows furrowed in distress. After thinking for a long time, he said, "I don't know what immortal sects and demon clans are, but they are indeed cultivators."
Facing Shu Nanzhi's clear eyes, Yu Xi's heart moved and he asked another question:
"Why did you come back here now that your grandfather can't protect you?"
The holy land is now extremely filthy, and ordinary people find it unbearable to just stay here. I'm afraid Shu Nanzhi doesn't want to face all this, otherwise he wouldn't have conjured up such a false scene.
Upon hearing this, Shu Nanzhi looked at Yu Xi who was staring at her, then suddenly lowered her head again and rested it heavily on the ground:
"Grandpa said that if I pray in the holy land, the Demon God will hear my voice. Demon God, please save my grandfather! He rebelled against the monks to save a living dead. He is the last patriarch of my tree demon clan. If he dies, my tree demon clan will have no hope of survival."
Yu Xi knew that he was not a demon god, so he held Shu Nanzhi's shoulders and wanted her to raise her head.
But Shu Nanzhi said nothing and said, "Please, I will offer you anything you want me to offer!"
Yu Xi closed her eyes, her voice gentle but helpless: "Then I want you to sit down now."
Hearing this, Shu Nanzhi sat up straight.
Yu Xi then continued, "My brother's soul was stolen by the monks. I came to Yaoling Valley this time to retrieve my brother's soul. Do you know anything?"
"Soul?"
Shu Nanzhi was confused for a moment, but quickly said, "I, I don't know, but my grandfather definitely knows!"
As she spoke, she looked at Yu Xi nervously, afraid that Yu Xi would be unhappy.
Who would have thought that after hearing this answer, Yu Xi smiled faintly:
"Then we will go find your grandfather now, but you must clearly tell me your grandfather's location, preferably leading the way. You should also tell me everything you know about how many monks there are and what the defenses are like."
Shu Nanzhi didn't realize for a moment that Yu Xi was going to save her grandfather. Her eyes were fixed on Yu Xi's snow-white ears, which were dazzling.
She suddenly murmured something completely irrelevant: "There is a white nine-tailed fox in Grandpa's eyes."
Gu An narrowed his eyes, then looked away and looked at Yu Xi.
Yu Xi blinked twice.
She was a little sensitive to the existence of the nine-tailed fox because Gu An once said that she looked like a nine-tailed fox when she was in the egg.
Just when he was about to ask Shu Nanzhi why he suddenly said this, Shu Nanzhi came back to his senses and hurriedly began to answer the question Yu Xi had asked before.
There were many monks guarding her grandfather, but since she was able to escape quietly, she naturally had a way to sneak back.
"Xiao Xi'er, have you made your decision?"
Zhong Xian came back at some point. Seeing Yu Xi already standing up with Shu Nanzhi, he smiled and said, "We'll listen to you."
He paused and said:
"I just took a look at the river here, and it's full of rotting corpses. It turns out that this place is used by the immortal sect as a good place to dispose of corpses."
Gu An didn't react when he heard this, but Su Xianyun frowned and looked at Yu Xi together with Ji Zhi, as if they were determined to listen to Yu Xi's decision.
