The Human Race from Beyond the Ten Lands of Jiuzhou
The name of this Moves was naturally something Bai Qiuran just come up with on the spot. Based on his association, Qing Danying was as black as a crow when she was young, and he raised her like a chicken. After she grew up, she loved to fly up and attack, hence the name of this move, "Crow Makes Flying Chicken".
Regardless of how ridiculous the name of this move is, its power is undeniably formidable. While Bai Qiuran was in mid-air, her incomparably powerful True Qi pressed down, directly crushing the scholar's posture. Then, she used both claws to grab his shoulders, locking his True Essence and successfully subduing him.
The scholar was startled and tried to struggle, but Bai Qiuran raised her hand and grabbed his throat. He and Su Xiangxue were about to take this arrogant Human Race away from here when suddenly shouts rang out from outside the crowd.
A group of guards dressed in the uniforms of the Monster Race Imperial Court rushed over and shouted at Bai Qiuran, "You tiger demon, put down this distinguished guest!"
Distinguished guest?
In an instant, Bai Qiuran and Su Xiangxue exchanged a glance, their thoughts immediately aligning.
With a graceful spin, Su Xiangxue faced the group of guards, the strings of her zither already at their full length. Then, she gently released them, unleashing a torrent of powerful True Essence that instantly stunned the elite guards of the Monster Race.
Bai Qiuran placed ten or eight marks on the scholar's body, casually tossed him towards the guards, ran to Su Xiangxue and the book, picked her up, and with all her speed, vanished from the Imperial Capital in an instant amidst a terrifying sonic boom, leaving behind only a mess.
The two ran all the way to the wilderness. In the blink of an eye, Bai Qiuran carried Su Xiangxue for thousands of miles. Then, in a deserted, desolate Barren Mountain, he stopped and slowly put Su Xiangxue down from his arms.
"I never imagined that the Monster Race Imperial Family had connections with other Human Race."
Bai Qiuran said, "I originally wanted to save his life, but I didn't expect it to backfire."
"Now our identities are most likely exposed."
Su Xiangxue said calmly.
"It's alright, I intended to expose myself to them anyway."
Bai Qiuran replied, "In fact, revealing our presence in this way is the least likely to arouse their suspicion."
Su Xiangxue suddenly glanced at Bai Qiuran, then said in a seemingly indifferent tone, "Speaking of which, you've noticed that little guy, haven't you?"
"I can tell now, she's just running around dressed as a man with her chest covered up. Does she think everyone's blind?"
Bai Qiuran replied.
"Snort."
Su Xiangxue snorted lightly and then said, "Then why didn't some people realize that Ruowei was also a woman disguised as a man back then?"
"This..."
Bai Qiuran hesitated for a moment, then said to Su Xiangxue, "Please, this involves my disciple's privacy, it's not easy to say... I promised to keep her secret."
With Bai Qiuran eye, if a woman were to disguise herself as a man by wrapping her chest and applying makeup, he would certainly be able to see through it. So if even he couldn't tell, the only reason would be that those things simply didn't exist in the first place.
Seeing that Bai Qiuran's expression was extremely sincere and didn't seem to be related to anything romantic, Su Xiangxue didn't press the matter further. After all, Tang Ruowei was already Bai Qiuran's apprentice, and in the future, she would have to maintain a good relationship with her, no matter what.
After a pause, Bai Qiuran got down to business. "That little guy's Moves style has the influence of the major sects of our Ten Lands of Jiuzhou, but why haven't I heard of such a person before?"
"Because that little guy isn't from the Ten Lands of Jiuzhou at all."
At this moment, Wisdom Immortal, who had been feigning death ever since Bai Qiuran and Su Xiangxue entered the Imperial Capital, spoke up, "According to the information Great Wisdom gave me, that little guy's real name is Kazama Haruka, he comes from a place called Eastern Isles, and he is a disciple of the Mulberry Divine Palace."
"Fusang?"
Bai Qiuran confusion, "What kind of place is that?"
"I've seen it in the Ruin of the Divine Age in the Savage Lands. According to the records there, Fusang is a Divine Tree that grows in the World's Far Eastern End. The Sun Gods used to live there, and every morning they would rise from there into the sky to illuminate the world."
Wisdom Immortal replied, "I don't know the exact location either. Over countless millennia, with the changes in land and sea, this place may have been moved to another location... However, it is definitely in the far east of the world."
"There are rumors in the Demon Realm that on an island in the Vast Sea to the east of the Demon Realm, Human Race live."
Su Xiangxue interjected, "I'm afraid the place they're referring to is Eastern Isles, and our world Fusang, being blocked by the Demon Realm, is unaware that such a place exists on the vast Vast Sea."
"Forget about her for now, let's deal with the Demon Emperor Mausoleum's Tomb first."
Bai Qiuran waved her hand.
"Come on, let's discuss the follow-up plan."
Late at night, Cloud Kun Chancellor, who had just returned to the Demon Emperor Palace, immediately summoned the Demon Emperor guards whom he had dispatched to inquire about the whereabouts of the visitor.
Upon learning the location, he didn't even have time to drink a sip of water before immediately heading to the Detached Palace where the guest was staying.
"Senior Sister Kazama."
He stood outside the room and called out to the people inside the Detached Palace, "Yun Fengge requests an audience."
There was no response from the Detached Palace for a while, but after a long time, a girl's voice finally came from inside.
"Come in."
Cloud Kun Chancellor walked in and saw a long-haired girl with red hair, dressed in Women's Clothing, sitting at the table with her back to him.
Upon seeing him enter, the young woman turned around, a hint of displeasure on her pretty face. She took out a piece of jade from her bosom and handed it to Cloud Kun Chancellor.
"Take this. This is something you asked your teacher for. This item can give you some leeway when you face that Sword Ancestor. However, the jade pendant can only protect one person. You can decide who to give it to."
"Thank you, Master."
Cloud Kun Chancellor raised both hands to accept it and thanked the girl.
"Will that Human Race Sword Ancestor really come?"
Seeing him solemnly put the jade pendant into his pocket, the red-haired girl raised an eyebrow and asked, "This is, after all, an internal matter for your Monster Race, isn't it?"
"Yes, normally he wouldn't interfere, but there are always some hopeless fools who think they can use his power to obtain the Demon Emperor's throne."
Cloud Kun Chancellor replied, "Once the Sword Ancestor intervenes, the situation within the entire Demon Realm will be beyond Yun Fengge's control. As Prime Minister, I must leave a way out for the Demon Realm. Moreover... perhaps Senior Sister Feng Jian has already met the Sword Ancestor."
"Um?"
"Does Senior Sister Kazama still remember the two Monster Race who confronted you on the street today?"
"Yes, I remember."
Recalling the situation at the time, the red-haired girl's expression turned somewhat displeased.
"You Monster Race are truly a hopeless race."
"I don't deny that, and I'm trying to salvage it now."
Cloud Kun Chancellor replied, "However, what I must say is that the two Monster Race who clashed with Senior Sister might not be true Monster Race at all; they were merely pretending to be Monster Race."
"You mean that guy is the Human Race's Sword Ancestor?"
The red-haired girl's mind conjured up the image of "Black Tiger Afu" howling and lunging at her, and her expression turned somewhat strange.
Most likely.
"Forget it, whether it's true or not, it's none of my business."
The red-haired girl stood up.
"I'm going back. Remember, after this, the Mulberry Divine Palace will have nothing to do with you anymore."
Yun Fengge understands.
Cloud Kun Chancellor said to the red-haired girl, "I request Yun Fengge to arrange escorts for Senior Sister, so as to prevent her from being harassed by the Monster Race who are unaware of the truth."
