The situation at Bianzhou has become increasingly confusing and tense, but this has not affected Song Changsheng. At this moment, their group has crossed Yang Province and entered Xiangzhou.
Although Xiangzhou is the territory of the Rong Clan, its control and appeal have not actually spread to the entire state. To be precise, it has not spread to the huge Rogue Cultivator group.
This is because Xiangzhou has a very famous Rogue Cultivator organization - Rogue Cultivator Alliance.
Rogue Cultivator Alliance is a relatively loose organization that exists in many places in Great Qi Cultivation World. It is self-organized, but it has high appeal and prestige among the Rogue Cultivator group.
This is especially obvious in Xiangzhou. The vast majority of Rogue Cultivator are attached to this alliance, almost to the point of shaking the rule of the Rong Clan in Xiangzhou.
And Song Changsheng and their destination is Rogue Cultivator City built in the south of Xiangzhou.
It was originally a group of Foundation Establishment Rogue Cultivator who joined together to build Market. Later, after hundreds of years of development, Market gradually grew stronger and eventually developed into a city.
Although the scale is far less than that of Sunset City, it is still somewhat famous in the south of Great Qi Cultivation World, and it is also the base camp of Xiangzhou Rogue Cultivator Alliance.
Song Changsheng and his party had been sleeping rough all the way, and half a month had passed when they arrived at Rogue Cultivator City.
"Finally we're here. It's time to take a good rest."
Looking at the not-so-lofty city wall, Song Changsheng rubbed his tired cheeks and said.
After traveling for half a month, even he was already a little overwhelmed.
After paying the entrance fee, Song Changsheng and others found an inn to stay. Then he looked at Old Ghost Chihuo who was very taciturn along the way and said, "Chihuo, go out and inquire about Heavenly Craftsman from Rogue Cultivator City, so that I can go and visit him."
Old Ghost Chihuo said quickly, "Old slave, I obey."
After he left, Song Changsheng called two juniors, Song Qingxing and Song Qingxi, into a restaurant. After calling the waiter to order a few dishes, he listened to the conversations of the people around him.
No matter what time of year it is, the restaurant is a great place to find out information, because there are all kinds of people from all over here.
Song Changsheng has been out for almost a month. The situation in Great Qi Cultivation World is changing rapidly now, and the Heavenly Sword Sect they are going to happens to be on the battlefield again. If they have the opportunity, they naturally want to inquire about the information and understand the current situation.
The hall on the first floor was a little noisy, but Song Changsheng still vaguely heard some information that interested him.
"Hey, Fellow Daoist Chen, did you just say that Heavenly Meridian Sect was defeated? Is it true?" A young monk with a sinister look on his face held a wine glass, put his head in front of a middle-aged monk, and deliberately lowered his voice.
Hearing this, the middle-aged monk glanced around covertly, raised his neck and drank a glass of wine and said, "I just came out from the north, how can I lie to you? I fought fiercely for more than ten days at Xizhou.
Oops, that was a terrible fight. Thousands of people died in the battle, and their blood gathered into streams. Those Foundation Establishment Cultivators that came and went high and low fell from the sky like dumplings.
It is said that several of the high-ranking Purple Mansion Great Cultivator died.
Now Heavenly Meridian Sect has completely given up on Xizhou. It is said that the battlefield is moving to the south. Alas, in my opinion, this Xiangzhou probably won't have many happy lives. "
Hearing this, a sad look suddenly appeared on the face of the monk with stern eyebrows and said, "What should we do? We are just small people. If we don't want to be involved, we have to run away. But now the north has become a mess. If an attack comes to the south, where can we escape?"
The middle-aged man said with a hint of disdain on his face, "We're afraid of the ball. If it doesn't work out, let's go to the Gusu Kingdom, then go to the Yu Kingdom. Tianxia is so big, I don't believe there's no room for us."
"Oh, that's the only way. You don't know what these big shots are thinking. They have so many resources, but they still want to fight for life and death."
"Well, who knows, anyway, it's us little people who will be unlucky in the end..."
Upon hearing this Song Changsheng turned his attention away and turned to the group of people who had just entered.
There were more than a dozen people in the group, with an imperceptible smell of blood and strong Killing Intent on their bodies. They should be people who lick blood from the edge of a knife all the time.
This is very common among Rogue Cultivator, but what attracted Song Changsheng to them was that he felt an unusually familiar aura in this group of people.
This couldn't help but interest him.
As soon as they entered the door, they found a corner to sit down, and then one of them, a tall man, muttered in a low voice, "Elder Brother, do we really want Yu Kingdom? This journey will not be smooth."
A middle-aged man in white shook his head and said, "Where is peace in Great Qi Cultivation World now? Originally, I planned to take you to Bianzhou. Although Hundred Thousand Great Mountains is dangerous, it is rich in resources and has many opportunities.
But I just got the news that Sunset City has locked down the city. It is said that those Demon Beast in the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains are going north again. Isn't it just asking for death to go there at this time..."
Song Changsheng was suddenly shocked, Demon Beast is going north?
He told Song Qingxi not to walk around casually, then stood up, walked to the group of people, cupped his hands to White-Clad Cultivator and said, "Fellow Daoist, could you tell me more about Beast Tide?"
Seeing Song Changsheng's young age, the tall man suddenly felt contemptuous. He waved his hand impatiently and said, "Guangguangguan, don't bother me to drink..."
Before the tall man finished speaking, White-Clad Cultivator beside him immediately covered his mouth and stopped him from continuing with his stern eyes.
Then he paid homage to Song Changsheng with a hint of fear. "Senior, this little brother has always been outspoken. Please be patient and don't be on the same level as him."
Song Changsheng couldn't help but give him a high look. The other party clearly saw his cultivation. He was able to stand up for his subordinates in such a situation. Elder Brother was quite competent at his job.
Seeing his Elder Brother appearance, the tall man immediately reacted. His face instantly turned pale, and cold sweat could not help but seep out of his pores.
Song Changsheng waved his hand and said, "Don't be nervous, I just want to ask about Sunset City. Did you just say that Sunset City has closed the city?"
White-Clad Cultivator breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead covertly and said, "Reporting back to senior, I don't know much, I just met a good friend on the way.
He told me that Sunset City had closed down the city, and he also notified several surrounding states of the news about Beast Tide, so that all the major forces should be on guard, but that was all the little ones knew. "
After saying that, he showed a hesitant look on his face again.
"Speak directly if you have anything to say."
White-Clad Cultivator gritted his teeth after hearing this and said, "There is a rumor. It is said that Beast Tide will be very large this time, and Old Flood Dragon on the other side of Black Water Great Marsh may take action himself.
I don't know how this news came out, and its authenticity is not reliable, but I would rather believe it than believe it, so I decided to take my brothers to the Yu Kingdom to seek life. "
"Old Flood Dragon took action personally..." Song Changsheng's heart suddenly sank. Black Water Great Marsh's reputation as Old Flood Dragon was naturally no stranger to him. It was Demon King who was closest to the fifth level among the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains.
In the past thousand years, the Beast Tide that posed the greatest threat to Great Qi Cultivation World was all led by it.
Although White-Clad Cultivator said this was hearsay, his intuition told Song Changsheng that it was probably true.
Changing places, if he were Old Flood Dragon over Black Water Great Marsh, he would also choose to give Great Qi Cultivation World a fatal blow when Great Qi Cultivation World was at its most chaotic.
His heart suddenly became a little anxious. Ling Province and Bianzhou were both one. Although Sunset City was at the forefront of fighting against Beast Tide, it could not block all Demon Beast.
Even if only a part of Demon Beast bypasses the Sunset City defense line, it would be very dangerous for Ling Province who had just experienced a big battle.
Seeing that Song Changsheng didn't speak, White-Clad Cultivator had no choice but to keep hunched over, and the people around him didn't dare to express their anger.
After pondering for a moment, Song Changsheng looked at White-Clad Cultivator and said, "I am very satisfied with your answer. Therefore, I plan to give you a chance to survive. It depends on whether you are willing to cooperate."
Everyone's expressions changed after hearing this, and they looked at Song Changsheng in panic, not knowing what he wanted.
White-Clad Cultivator Although he was a little flustered, he still managed to calm down and said, "I don't know what you mean, senior?"
Song Changsheng looked around and said, "It's not convenient here. If you can trust me, then talk to me somewhere else."
White-Clad Cultivator only hesitated for a moment and responded immediately, "Senior, please give me some advice."
"Well, then come with me."
Song Changsheng nodded and called the waiter, "Open a private room with enough space for me and move the food and wine on that table to the private room."
The waiter quickly complied with his request.
Song Changsheng called the two brothers and sisters who were watching on the side and said, "Come with me, it will give you some insights."
After a group of people entered the box under the leadership of the waiter, Song Changsheng waved his sleeves and robes, sealed all the doors and windows, and placed Restriction on them.
This set of operations made a group of Rogue Cultivator's eyes twitch. If Song Changsheng wanted their lives, they wouldn't even have a chance to escape.
Song Changsheng sat down in the main seat, looked at White-Clad Cultivator who was sweating profusely, and said in a deep voice, "Think carefully whether you have provoked or come into contact with any strange people from yesterday to now."
These words immediately confused them.
White-Clad Cultivator looked confused. "We entered the city yesterday, and we didn't provoke anyone during this period."
Song Changsheng frowned slightly, looked at the tall man who made the rude remarks before and said, "Stretch out your hand."
The tall man stretched out his hand in fear.
"Tsk"
Song Changsheng pinched his wrist with his left hand, and pointed his right hand like a knife, directly cutting the palm of his hand, and bright red blood poured out instantly.
Under everyone's confused gazes, Song Changsheng slightly urged Spiritual Power, then picked up the jade chopsticks on the table and picked out a black worm the size of a soybean from the cutout.
The tall man was so frightened that his face turned green when he saw this scene.
The rest of the people were also in a commotion. White-Clad Cultivator stared at the insect with wide eyes and said at a loss, "Senior, this... what is going on?"
Song Changsheng did not answer, but looked at the two juniors and said, "Do you know what this is?"
"This should be... some kind of Gu Insect?" Song Qingxi took a closer look and said hesitantly.
"Yes, this is Blood Sha Gu. Once planted, it will unknowingly become a container for cultivating poisonous insects, and eventually the whole body will fester and die.
You haven't been in contact for long, and Gu Insect is still in your flesh and blood. Once it enters the heart, even I can't do anything about it. "Song Changsheng A cold light flashed in his eyes. He had noticed it from the beginning, and now he was able to determine who the murderer was.
"Gu Insect?" White-Clad Cultivator was shocked.
Gu Master is rare, and many people will never encounter it in their lifetime, but everyone knows how terrifying Gu Insect is.
"Who, who did such a cruel thing? Senior, do we also have Gu Insect in our bodies?" White-Clad Cultivator's lips were trembling with anger.
Song Changsheng nodded and said, "Yes, each of you has it, that's why I asked you if you have any grudges with others, otherwise there are so many people, there is no reason for them to only target you.
To tell you the truth, I know the person who caused the poison, and he is the best among Foundation Establishment Cultivator. It is impossible for him to attack you for nothing. "
As soon as these words came out, everyone started racking their brains to remember.
After a moment, a weak voice sounded, "Senior, I may know."
"Say."
"Before entering the city, we hunted for a batch of Demon Beast materials. We happened to pass by a Cultivation Family at that time, and Elder Brother sold the materials to them. Then when we left, we met a weirdo who was covered in black robes and behaved strangely.
When the fourth child saw it, he taunted him a few words. The man didn't react at all. When we passed him, I was walking at the end. The man raised his head and I saw a pale face, which made people feel scared.
I didn't think much about it at the time, but now that I think about it, this is the only possibility. "
After he finished speaking, White-Clad Cultivator glared at the tall man fiercely, and then prayed to Song Changsheng: "Please, sir, please save our lives. I am willing to give everything I have."
Song Changsheng shook his head and said, "The reward is unnecessary, but I need you to take me to the place where I met that Black Robe Person."
"I am willing to go with senior." White-Clad Cultivator said firmly without any hesitation.
"Okay."
Song Changsheng actually admires him a little.
He removed Gu Insect for everyone one by one, and taught the two juniors how to defend against Gu Insect, and how to remove it after discovering it.
After solving their problems, Song Changsheng looked at the two juniors and said, "You go back to the inn first. I will take this fellow Daoist to settle some personal grudges outside the city."
"Uncle, please be careful." Song Qingxi very obediently accepted Song Changsheng's arrangement and pulled the wooden-like Song Qingxing back to the inn.
"Without further ado, let's leave now."
Song Changsheng picked up White-Clad Cultivator and followed the direction he directed, turning into a stream of light and heading out of the city.
It has been several years, but Song Changsheng has never forgotten this grudge. He originally thought that there would be no chance for revenge. Unexpectedly, he could not find any place after stepping through the iron shoes, and it took no effort to get it.
"Feng Wuming, it's time for us to make a break!"
