Chapter 520
There were not many people who came, but it was very encouraging. Even Zhang Xiaohua felt that the morale today was much higher than yesterday. Smiling in his heart, Zhang Xiaohua continued to be his medicine boy, hiding in the carriage with his eyes closed, comprehending the Heavenly Dao and the incantation.
The incantation of God Guidance to conceal his cultivation level had reached the final stage. As long as he could achieve a breakthrough, he was confident that he could hide it from the Incense Cult's Fiery Golden Eyes. If he could not achieve a breakthrough before reaching Lake Dianchi, he might have to think of another way.
In the following days, the Dragon God Sect, which Lord Peacock suspected, did not send anyone to attack them. The Incense Cult disciples along the way, in order to ensure the safety of the convoy, escorted them safely out of their area of control. Some of the disciples with high martial arts skills were even specially selected by Peacock to participate in the escort team.
With more escorts, Zhang Xiaohua left the carriage less. Occasionally, Manager Yang would come over to take a look, but he did not say much. Seeing the worry on Manager Yang's face gradually disappear, he knew that the convoy was getting safer.
However, there was one thing that Zhang Xiaohua did not understand. Lord Peacock was severely injured in the last battle. Her internal energy was depleted and her meridians were damaged. Her arms and back were severely injured by the steel knife. The knife not only caused her to lose a lot of blood, it also damaged the meridians in her arms and back. Normally, Peacock would find a quiet place to recuperate. However, every time Zhang Xiaohua used his consciousness to scan Peacock's carriage, he could see her pale cheeks and dispirited expression. She insisted on rushing until she could not take it anymore. She then took out a pill and consumed it.
Zhang Xiaohua saw this and wanted to give her the bottle of "Yuhuandan Pill". However, he remembered that he had told Manager Yang that he had already given it to Valley Master Nie. If he took it out now, wouldn't he be asking for trouble?
This was not the way to flatter someone.
Thus, Peacock's injuries did not heal and they continued to travel for almost a month.
It was already the end of October, but the weather here did not feel like autumn in the north. There was no autumn wind, no fallen leaves, only green and full of vitality.
Moreover, there were many times when they did not see tall mountains, but low and white stone peaks, just like the stone forest they saw before. Of course, this was the real stone forest. Previously, there were only a few stone trees.
The change in climate, the change in scenery. Perhaps to others, it was just a touch of nostalgia, but to Zhang Xiaohua, it had a different meaning. Inadvertently, it allowed Zhang Xiaohua to comprehend and understand the Heavenly Dao. Hence, Zhang Xiaohua immersed his consciousness into the surrounding environment, wanting to gain a new understanding. The Heavenly Dao in his heart seemed to have changed again, with a sliver of vitality.
On this day, the caravan continued to travel. The sun was high up in the sky, but it did not feel hot. Zhang Xiaohua had a smile on his face. It was just yesterday that he finally broke through the bottleneck of the chant, completely comprehending the cryptic chant. He was now able to hide his cultivation of the Immortal Dao, and even his consciousness at will, without leaving a single trace.
Just as Zhang Xiaohua was practicing the chant, his heart skipped a beat. He released his consciousness in front of him. A few miles ahead, there were four or five white horses, galloping towards them. The riders were dressed like Peacock, with veils covering their faces. Needless to say, they must be the fellow apprentices that Peacock mentioned!
Sure enough, when the horses came closer, one of the women was already on top of the horse. She called out, "Senior Kong, are you alright?"
Her voice came from afar, causing pain in everyone's ears. Zhang Xiaohua pursed his lips and thought, "This woman looks like a straightforward person. She's almost here, won't you be able to see her soon?
Moreover, why don't you learn from Lord Kong and lower your voice a little? "
Hearing her junior's call, Peacock immediately came out of the carriage and stood at the front of the carriage. She had not yet recovered her powers, so she could not use her powers to echo. She could only wave her hand to signal that she heard.
When the women saw this, they all cheered. They did not even ride their horses, but leaped from their horses and galloped towards the carriage. It did not take them long to reach Peacock's carriage.
It was the female disciple at the front who asked loudly, "Senior Kong, how are your injuries?
Why didn't you respond just now? "
Peacock laughed, "Junior Chen Chen, why are you still so impatient?
Master let you go out to gain experience this time precisely because he wanted to sharpen your temperament. But now it seems that the results are very little. "
Junior Chen Chen laughed, "A leopard cannot change its spots. Master, you know that. I've been like this since I was young, how can I change?
Let's not talk about me. How are your injuries? "
Peacock did not want to go into detail, but when she saw her Junior Apprentice Sister pestering her and the others staring at her, she had no choice but to tell them everything. Everyone was shocked when they heard this. They knew Peacock's cultivation base, she was considered to be one of the best among the inner disciples. That was why she was sent to Vow City. Even she was defeated and almost lost her life. If they were to encounter her, the consequences would be unimaginable.
At this time, a petite female disciple who had been listening to the conversation said in a low voice, "Senior Sister Kong, what you said at the end seems to be a legendary illusion formation. I heard that the Righteous Dao Alliance's' Auspicious Three Treasures' has such an effect. Moreover, the 'Auspicious Three Treasures' were killed by the Heavenly Dragon Sect's Qin Shiyue, and the three flags fell into the hands of the Heavenly Dragon Sect.
But if the Qimen Three Talents Formation was used by the Tenryū Sect, the one trapped should be Senior Kong, not Liang Cangxu and the others from the Tenryū Sect right? "
Peacock nodded, "Junior Xia Qing is right, I thought so too at the time. But if it was really an illusion array, I should have fallen into it as well. So why was I able to see the real scene outside the array?"
Xia Qing laughed, "That's because you didn't enter the formation."
Peacock shook her head and told them about the danger. This time, the juniors were speechless. Peacock was in the middle of the three of them. If the three of them were trapped in the illusion, there was no way Peacock would not be trapped.
Peacock laughed lightly, "Forget it, as long as we are out of danger. Let's tell Master about this and let her think about it. They are experienced and knowledgeable, they should be able to find some clues."
Then, she said, "Thank you for taking the time to come and pick me up. I am very grateful."
Chen Chen waved his hand and said, "Senior Kong, you are too kind. We have completed our mission and our teams are approaching Dianchi Lake. No matter how bold the Tenryū Sect is, I don't think they would dare to cause trouble under the nose of the Fragrance Sect. Let them go slowly. On the other hand, Senior Kong has been seriously injured and it seems that she will not be able to recover. If we don't come and help her, where else can we go?
Oh, right, Senior Kong, I don't think I have heard of any Heavenly Kings in the Tenryū Sect who are proficient in the sword. "
Peacock still shook her head, "I tried to sound them out several times, but that Liang Cangxu did not reveal anything. He just followed my tone and did not admit or deny it. I can't be sure. Maybe they are the young masters secretly trained by the Tenryū Sect."
Chen Chen scratched his head and said, "Let Master and the others worry about this kind of troublesome matter. We only need to wave our swords and kill the demons."
At this time, Xia Qing took out a jade bottle and said, "Senior Kong, you must have used up all your pills. This is the Yuhuandan Pill that I always carry with me. Senior Kong, please take it."
Peacock did not hesitate and reached out to take it. She said, "This sword is really powerful. It can even hurt the meridians. Although the Yuhuandan Pill of the Fragrance Sect has miraculous healing properties, it is still not enough to deal with the power of the sword. It can only maintain its power. I have used up all my pills and that's why I asked you to come."
When the Junior Kong sisters heard this, they all took out their pills. Peacock picked a few and put them in her clothes. She smiled and said, "I am relieved that you are all here. Even if that Liang Cangxu comes again, he will be defeated by us sisters."
"That's right, Senior Kong. The Tenryū Sect is too despicable. They used one person as bait while the other two lay in ambush. They are so shameless."
"Sigh, what kind of tricks are there in Jianghu?
This is just a simple ambush. You don't know, but this time, we encountered something interesting in Don't Worry City... "
Peacock then told them about how Valley Master Nie of the Rejuvenation Valley used the joust for marriage as a cover for Nie Qianyu in order to attract the enemy's attention. She also told them about how Zhang Xiaohua escorted Nie Qianyu from thousands of miles away. The few female disciples who had never been through the trials of Jianghu listened to the story as if they were listening to a story. They were all stunned. After a while, they asked, "Senior Kong, are you telling a story? How can a fifteen-year-old child be so kind?
And this Old Nie is really despicable. How could he come up with such a terrible idea... "
Peacock smiled and said, "Of course it's true. Even if you want me to make it up, how could I? Besides, this Ren Xiaoyao is in our convoy."
"What?
Right here? Quick, quick, let us see, let us see. "Chen Chen could not wait any longer.
Xia Qing, on the other hand, was attentive and asked, "This Ren Xiaoyao is not staying at the Rejuvenation Valley to be his son-in-law. Why is he here at the Fragrance Cult?"
Peacock heard this and knew that it was not good. After all, this was against the rules of the Fragrance Cult and it was also a matter of the Pill Repository Hall. Although her Senior Sister was an inner disciple, it was not convenient for her to interfere. Manager Yang had told her to keep it a secret. She was happy to see her Junior Sister and accidentally revealed everything. This... this was against the rules of Jianghu!
Chen Chen did not know what she was thinking and kept urging her. The others also clapped and cheered. Peacock was helpless and could only say, "You can meet him, but you must swear that this matter is only known to you. You must not tell anyone else, not even Master."
Everyone was stunned and looked at each other.
