That's Just Luck
"We went to the Moro Mountains before, Sister Houtu. That place is the location of the Demon Ancestor Luohe's dojo. Do you know this place?"
"We learned a lot there, such as the prohibition of Devil Creature, etc..."
Bixiao and the other women were still chatting away about what they had seen and heard in the Mora Mountain Range, as well as the interesting things they had done with Lin Yunji in other places.
Houtu listened with great interest, her eyes sparkling, her face filled with longing and anticipation.
It seemed they were very much in love with what Bixiao had said!
"If I had the chance, I would love to travel the Primordial Wilderness with you all!" Houtu's eyes sparkled as she spoke softly with longing.
"Hehe! Of course! We also really like Sister Houtu!" Bixiao said with a smile.
"Indeed, the roads will be very lively then." Xihe also warmly took Houtu's arm and said with a smile.
While the woman chatted and laughed, Lin Yunji leaned lazily against a very large stone pillar, with the Forbidden City surrounding them.
However, the location of the Heavenly Dao Fragment has still not been found.
"Ancestral Witch Houtu, why don't you two chat for a while and go for a walk somewhere else?" Lin Yunji smiled at Houtu and said after failing to find the location of the Heavenly Dao Fragment in the main hall.
"??"
Houtu paused for a moment, then smiled brightly and said, "If that's the case, then... I'll go for a walk with you!"
"Yes, yes, Sister Houtu, we want to go with you too!" Changxi said with a smile.
"That's fine too." Lin Yunji smiled faintly.
Then, led by Houtu, a group of people left the main hall. Looking around, all the Ancestral Witches were busy at work.
Some were engaged in back-and-forth fighting, some were honing their weapons, and others were working out their muscles.
It can be said that the lifestyles of the Witch Clan and the Human Race are very similar.
No wonder that Human Race and Witch Clan were able to live in peace and help each other afterward, and eventually a new race emerged— the Witch Human!
"Greetings, Ancestral Witch Houtu!"
"Greetings, Ancestral Witch Houtu!"
Upon seeing Lin Yunji and his group approaching, all the busy Witch Clan warriors stopped and bowed respectfully before departing.
But at the same time, after seeing Lin Yunji and the others behind Houtu, a look of surprise appeared on his face.
"Go do what you're supposed to do, don't stand around watching!" Houtu waved her hand sternly, her previous gentle smile completely different.
This is how they managed to disperse these burly compatriots.
"I'm truly sorry, but it's rare for gods from other races to come here, so our people are naturally curious," Houtu explained apologetically.
Before Houtu could finish speaking, and before Lin Yunji could say anything, a furious voice suddenly rang out.
Then a series of muffled stomping sounds came from afar, like the sound of muffled thunder.
And with that sound, the earth shook.
At first glance, a very burly man, as big as a small mountain, was seen running from the mountain peak not far away, at an extremely fast speed.
The surging aura emanating from his body radiated outwards, as if an High Antiquity ferocious beast were lurking within him.
On her back was a very large axe, its blade exceptionally sharp, gleaming silver in the sunlight.
It was Xingtian who had challenged him to a duel before!
When he charged over with such momentum, he was like a ferocious beast of enormous size, giving people a tremendous sense of oppression.
"Hey! Is this the friend of Houtu, the Houtu Zhurong mentioned before who has incredibly strong physical strength?" Xingtian rushed over and stared straight at Lin Yunji, asking in a deep voice.
His voice was extremely loud, like a bell or drum being struck, deafening and resounding!
"Presumptuous!"
Upon seeing this, Houtu's expression changed slightly, her beautiful eyes almost freezing into frost as she glared fiercely at Xingtian: "You have some nerve, daring to block our way!"
With a thud, upon seeing Houtu angry, Xingtian suddenly knelt on the ground.
At the same time, he kowtowed forcefully to Houtu, then raised his head and said, "Ancestral Witch Houtu, I have absolutely no intention of offending you! I simply want to tell all members of the Witch Clan that there is absolutely no living being in the world whose physical strength can compare to that of our Witch Clan!"
He kowtowed because he stopped Ancestral Witch Houtu from apologizing, but he still wanted to challenge her to a duel because he wanted to tell everyone that the Witch Clan's gentle power was the strongest in the world.
It can be said that Xingtian was indeed worthy of being the future war god of the Witch Clan. He could be described as having an iron will or standing tall and upright.
He is responsible and dares to challenge Supreme the strongest.
"Do you think I won't get angry?" Houtu, the Ancestral Witch Houtu, scolded in a low voice when she saw that Xingtian was still insisting.
As soon as he finished speaking, strands of earth-elemental power appeared on Houtu's slender, snow-white fingers, as if she could suppress Xingtian into the ground with a wave of her hand.
This shows that Houtu was truly angry.
As the ancestral witch of the Witch Clan, although she was gentle and graceful in front of Xihe and other women just now, she was actually decisive and swift in dealing with outsiders.
Otherwise, how could such a large Houtu Tribe be managed effectively?
"Ancestral Witch Houtu, is she...?"
A glint of something Xingtian flashed in his eyes, but he quickly gritted his teeth and insisted on continuing the challenge.
In his view...
He might be punished by Ancestral Witch Houtu later, but he absolutely refuses to give up so easily.
Otherwise, his belief in the strength of his race's physical body, which he had held since the day he gained sentience, would have crumbled.
As a warmonger among the Witch Clan, this was something he couldn't tolerate.
He would never be satisfied until he could prove whether Lin Yunji's physical strength was greater than his.
"Etc."
Just then, Lin Yunji took a step forward and patted Houtu's round shoulder calmly, telling her not to be angry.
Then, Lin Yunji turned to look at Xingtian, shook his head with a smile, and said, "You may feel very unwilling, but you can't beat me!"
"I understand!" Xingtian replied just as earnestly, "Because the Ancestral Witch Zhurong also said that he is no match for you, and warned me never to offend you, otherwise our Witch Clan will face a great calamity!"
"But I only wanted to challenge you and fight you; I didn't mean to offend you."
"If I didn't use Law Power, I absolutely wouldn't believe that my physical strength is inferior to yours!"
"After we finish our battle, whether we win or lose, I can let the Houtu Witch Clan punish me as they see fit, and I will absolutely not complain."
Seeing Xingtian's naive tone, Lin Yunji couldn't help but smile speechlessly.
This guy!
They're similar to those martial arts enthusiasts in wuxia TV dramas.
You could call him stubborn or incorrigible, but there's nothing you can do about it, because they are simply being true to their inner beliefs.
It is precisely because of their unwavering resolve that their will is not to be underestimated.
"Alright, I don't have anything else to do anyway, so what's wrong with fighting alongside you?" Seeing the determination in Xingtian's eyes, Lin Yunji's lips curled up slightly, revealing a smile.
"Thank you!" Upon seeing Lin Yunji's agreement, Xingtian quickly stood up and bowed to Lin Yunji with great joy and sincerity to express his gratitude.
Lin Yunji somewhat helpless.
This person is absolutely bizarre!
I'm the one who'll teach him a lesson later, and he's actually thanking me?
"Come now, the sooner we get here, the sooner we'll finish!" Lin Yunji waved his hand and said.
"No, no." Xingtian quickly shook his head and refused, "We can't fight here, otherwise we'll hurt other people."
"Where would you like to fight?" Lin Yunji asked with a smile.
"Go to the Xuanming Great Grassland. That place is the immortal abode of the Ancestral Witch Xuanming. There is a very large grassland there, very vast, perfect for fighting!"
"Okay!" Lin Yunji agreed.
"Lin Yunji, I'm sorry..."
Houtu gently bit her lower lip, apologizing with a look of remorse.
But before he could finish speaking, Lin Yunji stopped him, chuckling, "Don't make it so difficult. This guy is quite interesting; I'd love to punch him a few times!"
Houtu was at a loss for words.
After hearing what Lin Yunji said, two black lines appeared on her forehead.
Because she knew that Lin Yunji's physical strength was incredibly powerful, with every inch of his muscle carrying boundless power.
Her opponent's physical strength was far superior to hers!
Therefore, Houtu was not afraid of Lin Yunji being defeated. The reason she apologized was because she felt that Lin Yunji had been treated rudely.
Xingtian then happily led the way, taking them towards the tribe where Xuanming was located.
It is worth mentioning that...
No one knew who had spread the news, but many people heard that someone was coming to fight, so they all immediately ran towards the grassland where Xuanming was.
Such a grand display of power naturally caught the attention of the Ancestral Witch Xuanming.
So when Lin Yunji was brought to this grassland, the Ancestral Witch Xuanming had already arrived.
Besides this!
Zhurong, Gonggong, and many other ancestral witches also came here after hearing this news, as if they wanted to witness Lin Yunji's power with their own eyes.
"My fellow Ancestral Witches, today I, Xingtian, will show you that there is absolutely no living being in this world whose physical strength can compare to that of us Ancestral Witches!" Xingtian stood on the grassland, his aura was very grand, and his voice was very loud.
"Xingtian, I was just joking with you. How could you possibly defeat Fellow Lin Yunji!" Zhurong Rong scratched his red hair and shouted at the Great God Xingtian.
"So, it was Zhurong who instigated Xingtian?" Zhurong glared angrily at Gonggong and shouted.
"What evidence do you have that I instigated him! I only told him that a friend of Houtu's sister had come, and that the other person's physical strength was about the same as mine!" Zhurong immediately retorted.
"You clearly know that Xingtian is a battle maniac, so why did you tell him this?"
"Fine, fine, so what? What can you do to me?!"
To the utter bewilderment of many Witch Clan warriors, before Lin Yunji and Xingtian had even begun their battle, their ancestral witches, Zhurong and Gonggong, had already started arguing and were about to clash!
"Alright, don't you two feel ashamed arguing like this!" Dijiang angrily scolded the two of them.
"Huh?" Suddenly, Lin Yunji's gaze fell in the direction of the Ancestral Witch Xuanming, and his eyes lit up.
He never expected that he would find Heavenly Dao Fragment floating in the void, shining brightly, in the position of the author of the Ancestral Witch Xuanming.
"I never expected this! After searching for so long without finding it, I never imagined it would be here!" Lin Yunji was overjoyed upon seeing this.
He had previously thought that with the territory of the Witch Clan being so vast, it would probably take him a very long time to find the Heavenly Dao Fragment.
But to everyone's surprise, simply agreeing to fight Qingtian led to finding Heavenly Dao Fragment on this vast grassland. His luck was simply incredible.
"My friend, Ancestral Witch Houtu, why are you staring at Ancestral Witch Xuanming? Shall we begin now?"
Xingtian's thunderous roar suddenly rang out, instantly pulling Lin Yunji back to his senses.
As soon as Xingtian finished speaking, all the Witch Clan warriors watching Lin Yunji.
As expected, they saw Lin Yunji staring intently at the Ancestral Witch Xuanming, his eyes shining brightly as if he were extremely excited.
Noticing everyone's gaze, Lin Yunji was speechless.
