The Nine-Rank Heavenly Eye can only be opened for the duration of one incense stick a day!
Just one incense stick ago, no one had a good word for Wang Xiong, thinking he would surely die in the pack of tigers and wolves. But after this incense stick, everyone couldn't help but silently mourn for the tigers and wolves.
It took a while for the scene to fade, and the crowd remained silent for a long time.
It was Zhou Chi who spoke first: "Sis, did I just see a fake tiger?"
The crowd: "……………………!"
------
Shenmu Mountain Range.
"Stop, stop, it's all the Wolf King's fault! He was the one who incited me, it has nothing to do with me! He said your cultivation is low, and you're hiding a great treasure!" Ju Que curled up, covering his head, and begged for mercy.
The Wolf King stood there, dumbfounded.
"Smack!"
Wang Xiong delivered the final lash. He paused, then turned to look at the Wolf King.
The Wolf King had a look of utter despair.
"Whimper, whimper, whimper!" The Wolf King immediately fell to the ground, begging for mercy.
It has nothing to do with me, it was Ju Que who wanted to kill you, I was just following orders, it has nothing to do with me!
But no matter how many words the Wolf King had, he couldn't speak them, and could only whimper and beg for mercy.
Wang Xiong looked around at the pack of wolves, all of whom were covered in blood. Ju Que, though tough-skinned, had a swollen face and certain parts of his body were also swollen.
Taking a deep breath, Wang Xiong said solemnly, "I was in a bad mood, so I hit a bit too hard! Sorry!"
The tigers and wolves provoking him was just one aspect; Wang Xiong's mood was more influenced by his past life. That pain and frustration had nowhere to vent, and after thrashing the tigers and wolves, his mood had improved significantly.
"No, no, Senior, it's our own fault!" Ju Que quickly flattered.
"Um! Get up! Let's go!" Wang Xiong nodded.
Ignoring the pain of the tigers and wolves, Wang Xiong directly called for them to set off.
The tigers and wolves naturally dared not object. As long as they weren't being thrashed, everything was fine.
Ju Que now looked at Wang Xiong with even more fear, not daring to contradict him.
Wang Xiong rode on Ju Que's back and looked up at the sky.
"The Heavenly Malevolent Wind covering the Shenmu Mountain Range? This is the work of the tiger clan, right?" Wang Xiong looked at the endless sandstorm and said solemnly.
The Heavenly Malevolent Wind was very strange. From the outside, it looked like it was covered in endless sandstorms, but inside, it was calm and peaceful, and it even let light through. It was very bright inside during the day.
"Ah? Senior, you know this?" Ju Que asked, his swollen mouth in surprise.
"The Shenmu Mountain Range has a sect called the Shenmu Sect! Inside the sect is a Shenmu Flower, known to all. The Shenmu Flower generally grows in extremely yin and malevolent places, but observing the surroundings, everything is bright and peaceful, with no yin and malevolent energy. There must be a great array suppressing the yin and malevolent energy. The Heavenly Malevolent Wind surrounds the area, so the array suppressing the yin and malevolent energy, even if not created by the tiger clan, must have a significant connection to them!" Wang Xiong asked solemnly.
"Yes, it was set up by our tiger clan's elders! It's called something like the 'Yin Array'!" Ju Que said proudly.
"The Heaven-Suppressing Yin Malevolent Array!" Wang Xiong said solemnly.
"Right, right, right, it's called the 'Heaven-Suppressing Yin Malevolent Array'! How did you know, Senior? Only the clan elders of our tiger clan know this array, and it's said to be extremely intricate. Even in our tiger clan, only a few know it!" Ju Que said in surprise.
Why did Wang Xiong know? In his past life, he had used this array countless times. He was naturally very familiar with the tiger clan's divine array, but he wouldn't say more to Ju Que.
Thinking of the past, Wang Xiong felt a pang of sadness. He had reincarnated, but what about the Emperor?
Looking up at the sky, Wang Xiong sighed softly. In this life, he didn't know if he would have the chance to see the Emperor again.
The Heaven-Suppressing Yin Malevolent Array! Inside, it was calm, but there were many irregular clouds and mists in the surroundings. Especially as Wang Xiong and his group moved forward, the mists became more and more dense, like a large fog array.
Wang Xiong led Ju Que and the pack of wolves for several days.
"Senior, are we going to the Shenmu Sect?" Ju Que asked in surprise.
"Oh? Have you been there before?" Wang Xiong asked curiously.
"I had a chance to go before. A while ago, I entered with our clan elder, but there were too many mists, and I got distracted and walked at the back. I got lost, so... I met you by chance!" Ju Que said with a bitter smile.
"Clan elder? So a group of tigers came here?" Wang Xiong asked curiously.
"Yes, the sect leader of the Shenmu Sect sent a letter a while ago, saying that the Great Qin Empire was sending troops, and asked our clan elder for support. Our clan elder, Ju Men, led thirty tiger guards to help, and I was one of them!" Ju Que explained.
"Inviting the tiger clan for support? Does the sect leader of the Shenmu Sect have a connection with the tiger clan?" Wang Xiong asked curiously.
"The predecessor of the Shenmu Sect was called the Immortal Sect. The sect leader, 'Black Spot,' was also from our tiger clan. It's said that Black Spot was ruthless and would stop at nothing to achieve his goals, not a good person. He was expelled from the tiger clan due to his actions. However, after joining the Immortal Sect, he became very successful. He once found a rare pill for our tiger clan, so the tiger clan's array master made an exception and helped set up the array here." Ju Que explained.
"Black Spot? He offered the pill, and the tiger clan helped set up the array, so they were even. Since he was expelled from the tiger clan, why did your clan elder Ju Men bring you thirty tiger guards to help him?" Wang Xiong asked curiously.
"Because the pill saved Ju Men's father. Although they were even, Black Spot pleaded with Ju Men, who, remembering his father's rescue, still brought us to help the Shenmu Sect!" Ju Que explained.
"Um!" Wang Xiong nodded.
"By the way, when we came with Clan Elder Ju Men, I always smelled something delicious in his sleeve, making us drool all the way!" Ju Que suddenly recalled, his mouth watering.
"Ha, you're already at the Martial Ancestor realm, and you can't control your mouth?" Wang Xiong laughed lightly.
"No, Senior, you didn't smell it. It was a scent I've never smelled before. What mountain delicacies and sea flavors haven't I eaten? But that scent was enough to drive us mad. If Clan Elder Ju Men hadn't kept it, we thirty tiger guards would have definitely pounced on it!" Ju Que swore to the delicious scent.
Wang Xiong shook his head, not paying much attention to what Ju Que said.
Wang Xiong needed the Shenmu Flower. Although he had the Immortal Binding Rope, his current cultivation was limited, and its power was not great. It was enough to deal with Ju Que, but far from enough to challenge the entire Shenmu Sect. But he still came.
Because the 'Heaven-Suppressing Yin Malevolent Array' was set up here! Wang Xiong's familiarity with this array was enough to let him move freely. He naturally had to try, otherwise, once the Heavenly Malevolent Wind ended, he would have to compete with outsiders.
The Shenmu Flower, Wang Xiong was determined to get it!
The group of tigers and wolves marched grandly into the depths of the Shenmu Mountain Range.
Outside, the Heavenly Eye would send a divine light at noon every day.
Seeing Wang Xiong still riding the tiger demon, the crowd outside gradually accepted this bizarre reality.
Wang Xiong had truly subdued this group of tigers and wolves.
Wang Zhongquan sighed inwardly.
"Is this already the tenth day? Why are Wang Xiong and the others heading towards the Shenmu Mountain?" Zhou Chi asked in surprise.
"Wang Xiong survived, thinking his whip technique could go unchallenged, and he actually wants to go to the Shenmu Sect? Ha, the disciples of the Shenmu Sect aren't vegetarians. He's truly courting death!" the Fourth Prince said with a cold smile.
The Fourth Prince was extremely happy at this moment. Not only would the Shenmu Sect disciples not let Wang Xiong, the outsider, off, but his son should also be near the Shenmu Sect. Once he knew Wang Xiong was alive, he would surely kill him.
The Fourth Prince looked forward to it.
Wang Zhongquan, however, became worried again. What was the Young Master thinking? Why go to the dangerous Shenmu Sect?
"Sis, is Wang Xiong going to the Shenmu Sect to pick the Shenmu Flower for you?" Zhou Chi said with a hint of disdain.
Zhou Tianyin, however, remained silent.
After these few days, Zhou Tianyin's impression of Wang Xiong had changed significantly. The image of Wang Xiong that Zhou Chi described had been completely overturned. Seeing Wang Xiong still heading to the Shenmu Sect, seemingly to pick the Shenmu Flower for her, Zhou Tianyin felt a touch of emotion.
In the scene.
Wang Xiong stood at the entrance of a valley surrounded by strong winds, seemingly closing his eyes to sense the wind inside.
The Heaven-Suppressing Yin Malevolent Array was a tiger clan array. Inside the great array, there were countless strange wind currents. These currents looked like ordinary strong winds, but Wang Xiong knew they were more than just air currents. They were a part of the array, with great danger. Even a single current could trigger a large part of the array to counterattack.
"This wind valley is indeed a base of the array. Entering here, one can pass through the wind tunnel to reach the Shenmu Flower, ha!" Wang Xiong's eyes flashed with satisfaction, and Ju Que suddenly kept sniffing.
"Sniff, sniff, sniff...!" Ju Que kept swallowing saliva, his eyes filled with excitement.
The pack of wolves, who were tearing and eating wild beasts, looked curiously at Ju Que, not understanding his intoxicated expression.
"This is the scent, this is the scent, so fragrant, so fragrant!" Ju Que exclaimed in surprise.
"Hm?" Ju Que's exclamation startled Wang Xiong.
Wang Xiong's gaze left the wind valley and looked at Ju Que curiously, "What scent?"
"The delicious scent I told you about a few days ago, the one in Clan Elder Ju Men's sleeve that made us drool. It's this scent, so fragrant. It must be Clan Elder Ju Men, he should be nearby!" Ju Que kept sniffing, restless and eager to go.
Wang Xiong showed a curious look. He hadn't taken Ju Que's words seriously that day, but seeing Ju Que's excited and slightly manic expression now, he felt the scent was unusual.
Unfortunately, Wang Xiong's cultivation was too low, and he couldn't smell like Ju Que.
"Let's go and see!" Wang Xiong mounted Ju Que's back.
"Ah, good!" Ju Que was extremely excited.
The tiger led the way, jumping to the front, afraid of being late and missing out.
"Roar!"
The Wolf King howled, and all the blue wolves stopped eating and quickly followed Ju Que.
