Chapter 284 – As if nothing had happened
Suddenly, Su Yun felt something and turned around, looking up at the sky with his Dao Gate Heavenly Eye on his forehead. There was a huge pan goat on the clock tower, and it seemed that there was a person standing beside the pan goat.
However, Su Yun\'s Dao Gate Heavenly Eye had its limitations in terms of vision. He couldn\'t see the person\'s face on the clock tower clearly, and he couldn\'t even tell if it was a man or a woman.
Su Yun\'s thoughts moved slightly, and he stepped on the mist, continuously walking upwards, his figure getting higher and higher.
A light laughter came from the tower, and the person stepped back, while the pan goat remained in place.
Su Yun calmly said, "Are you able to control the calamity ash and control the pan goat? Do you want to leave like this?"
The person\'s voice was rough and he chuckled, "The key to the Tongtian Pavilion is indeed well-deserved. The Tongtian Pavilion of Yuan Shuo is only barely maintaining its reputation with the key. If it weren\'t for the key, it would have long fallen into the hands of my Great Qin!"
Su Yun continued to ascend and reached the top of the tower. The clouds and mist swirled beneath his feet as he chased after the person. He couldn\'t help but think, "Could he (she) be the chosen master of the Tongtian Pavilion from overseas? Is he (she) making a move this time to test my abilities and force me to reveal the key?"
The word "key" had a unique meaning in the Tongtian Pavilion. It not only referred to the key that opened the door, but also symbolized the identity of the Tongtian Pavilion\'s master.
Moreover, the treasure left behind by the previous pavilion masters also required a key to open!
The key could also control many of the pavilion masters\' spiritual weapons, such as the Dusty Sky that covered the sky, which could be controlled by the key.
Even the "Bridge to the Heavens" rumored to be built by the Tongtian Pavilion, this legendary bridge, also required a key to open!
The weight of the wooden box far exceeded Su Yun\'s imagination!
Suddenly, the pan goat on the clock tower moved and blocked Su Yun\'s path. This pan goat was even more powerful, with surging vitality and astonishing strength!
Just now, it was this pan goat that threw the holy bell and forced Zuo Songyan to retreat!
Su Yun couldn\'t contend with the demonized pan goat, even if he activated the Dusty Sky, it was only for self-preservation.
Just as Su Yun was about to stop, a huge bronze bell flew towards him from behind, crashing into the demonized pan goat in mid-air and sending it flying!
Zuo Songyan followed closely behind the bell, rushing over with a punch. Suddenly, stars fell from behind him, and with a punch, he smashed the pan goat into the ground!
Su Yun breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly chased after the person.
With a wave of his hand, the clouds flowed like quicksand, stealthily moving through the mist.
The person\'s body movement was strange, shuttling between the buildings in the clouds and mist. Even the Dusty Sky couldn\'t stop him (her) for a while.
However, the person was evading everywhere but was caught up by Su Yun. Suddenly, he stopped and a bright mirror appeared behind him.
Su Yun was shocked, the mirror had not yet unleashed its power, but he sensed a terrifying saintly aura!
"The spiritual weapon of an original realm expert!"
Su Yun\'s wooden box instantly transformed into a wooden sword without hesitation, while the Dusty Sky also transformed into a giant sword.
The power of the two great saintly spiritual weapons erupted!
At this moment, both of them seemed to know that holding back would be a dead end, and they each displayed their lifelong skills.
Su Yun controlled the sword and used the wooden sword in his hand to unleash the Immortal Sword Slaying Demon Dragon. At the same time, the giant sword formed by the Dusty Sky also unleashed the same move!
On the other side, the person activated the mirror behind him, and a bright light appeared in the mirror. In the center of the mirror was an eye, which suddenly opened, shooting out a beam of light!
"Boom!"
The two clashed with their divine abilities. The giant sword formed by the Dusty Sky only managed to unleash half of its move before being struck by the divine ability shot out by the strange eye in the mirror, shattering the sword!
Su Yun\'s blood and energy surged, impacting his physical body. A tremendous force rushed towards him, sending him flying backwards.
At the same time, the wooden sword in his hand transformed into the wooden box and flew out, completing the second half of the Immortal Sword Slaying Demon Dragon.
The person didn\'t expect that he could still unleash the second half of the move. Caught off guard, he immediately fled and circled behind the mirror.
"Chi!"
The wooden sword still struck the person behind, and as Su Yun was being thrown back, he immediately heard a muffled groan from the person. This groan was no longer rough, but rather carried a hint of femininity.
Before he could think further, another figure pounced towards him and gently supported his back. Su Yun immediately felt a soft and gentle force surging, dissipating the impact from the mirror.
The person who made the move was Xing Jiangmu, who appeared to be old and with white hair. After neutralizing the impact for Su Yun, he swiftly arrived in front of the mirror like smoke.
Su Yun was shocked and hurriedly rushed forward, activating the Dusty Sky. Thick mist formed a giant bell.
The person hid behind the mirror and, seeing the situation, raised his hand to cover himself with the huge mirror.
The yellow bell struck, landing on the mirror\'s surface, but the person had already entered the mirror and was not affected by Su Yun\'s divine ability.
Xing Jiangmu rushed forward, but there was nothing he could do. He saw the mirror fly up and disappear into the thick mist.
Su Yun beckoned, and the wooden sword flew back, transforming into the wooden box.At this moment, a warning sound came from the city. Zuo Songyan flew over and whispered, "There are experts from the Yun Clan coming. Let\'s go quickly!"
The three of them hurriedly left. When they returned to Lanling Street, they saw the dispersing clouds and the rising sun in the east.
The experience of this night was truly like a dream, leaving Xing Jiangmu in disbelief.
"The ancient divine beast Hakutaku, Hakutaku\'s strange house, the book world of the Tongtian Pavilion, the Tree of Books, and Ming Yufei."
Xing Jiangmu returned to the envoy\'s residence, excitedly pacing around, punching and palm striking, saying, "And the reappearance of the mist from two hundred years ago, the transformation of the Pan Yang demons into man-eating monsters. In my more than ten years as a historian, I have never encountered such things! After I retire, I will definitely write a book about these experiences!"
"Don\'t write a book. Writing a book is a dead end."
Ying Ying flew out from Su Yun\'s spiritual realm and said, "It\'s difficult to even support oneself, and there may not be anyone who wants to read it. Even if someone does, there will be book monsters like me who will devour it directly. Then it won\'t be your book anymore, but mine."
Xing Jiangmu, feeling devastated, seemed to age a bit more.
Ying Ying absorbed the contents recorded by more than ten book monsters, and for a while, she found it difficult to digest. Su Yun\'s spiritual energy helped her organize these contents, and she gradually felt better.
Unknowingly, it was already bright outside, and the streets gradually filled with Pan Yang carriages. If it weren\'t for the experiences of last night, it would be hard to imagine that these creatures had caused great slaughter two hundred years ago to one hundred and seventy years ago, devouring countless people.
After breakfast, Zuo Songyan left alone, saying, "I need to quickly deal with the things obtained from the Fei Yun Valley, and also the Pan Yang demon I caught last night. I\'ll first hand it over to Doctor Dong to see if there is any connection with the Gray Calamity Monster."
Su Yun was both shocked and delighted. "Doctor Dong is here too?"
Zuo Songyan said, "Doctor Dong is a member of your Tongtian Pavilion. In the competition between the pavilion masters inside and outside the country, as a member of the Tongtian Pavilion, he must come. By the way, be careful of Ming Yufei. She knew about our visit to Hakutaku\'s house last night."
Su Yun\'s heart trembled.
Zuo Songyan hurriedly left.
Su Yun and Ying Ying organized the records of the book monsters in the book world and selected useful information from them.
When the sun was high in the sky, a knocking sound came from outside the envoy\'s residence.
Xing Jiangmu went out to open the door and saw Ming Yufei coming alone, still dressed as she was yesterday, with green clothes and green hair. Two phoenix hairpins with silver tassels hung from her head. When she saw Xing Jiangmu, she smiled, her eyes crescent-shaped like a moon, "Thank you, Grandpa! Is Su Shao Shi here?"
Su Yun was sitting on the second-floor balcony, organizing information with Ying Ying. When he heard her words, he poked his head out and waved to her. Seeing this, Ming Yufei hurriedly lifted her skirt and quickly went upstairs.
Xing Jiangmu\'s head was spinning. He thought, "The Holy Empress is so casual. If she stays in the same room as Su Shao Shi... If someone sees them... But it seems like Ming Yufei doesn\'t care about that. Otherwise, she wouldn\'t be called the Mad Empress. But a man and a woman staying in the same room is still not good..."
He shivered and walked towards the upstairs. "I\'ll go too. Then it won\'t be a man and a woman staying in the same room."
On the second floor, he saw Ming Yufei, Su Yun, and Ying Ying sitting at the table. Some small spirits like teapots and vases were busy serving the three of them.
"Before the Pan Yang chaos, some interesting things happened."
Su Yun glanced at Ming Yufei\'s buttocks, unable to tell if she was injured or not. So he suppressed his strange thoughts and told Ming Yufei about his discoveries, saying, "Before the Pan Yang chaos, members of the overseas Tongtian Pavilion discovered the wonderful uses of the Gray Calamity. They used it for illumination, smelting, and even cultivation. I saw a research by a member of the Tongtian Pavilion. He said that during the craziest period of the Great Qin Dynasty, there were more than ten incidents of Gray Calamity monsters causing trouble in the country in a single day."
Ming Yufei, true to her name, had fair skin that was illuminated by the sunlight, as if she were a piece of bright jade. Her gaze was pure and penetrating. She turned her head and said, "I also saw some research. Some people in the Tongtian Pavilion at that time suspected that the Pan Yang demons were contaminated by the Gray Calamity, which made them become violent and cannibalistic. However, the Tongtian Pavilion later conducted some experiments and did not find any abnormalities in the Pan Yang demons after contact with the Gray Calamity..."
Su Yun carefully listened to her voice and compared it to the person who attacked them last night. He furrowed his brows slightly and said, "The voice doesn\'t match. Could it be that she wasn\'t the one who attacked us last night? There is another way to verify, which is to stab the person\'s buttocks with my sword. Just need to check if there is a wound..."
"There is something unusual!"
Ying Ying suddenly said, "I found in a volume of \'Ge Wu Zhi\' that the man-eating Pan Yang demons contain remnants of the Gray Calamity, indicating that these Pan Yang demons have all eaten the Gray Calamity before."
She found these illustrations and showed them to the two of them.
Ming Yufei leaned in to take a closer look, and Su Yun also leaned over to carefully examine them. His left hand quietly touched the girl\'s buttocks.
Ming Yufei exclaimed, looking at him sideways, her face blushing, her eyes like autumn water, but she didn\'t say anything.Su Yun quietly withdrew his left hand, acting as if nothing had happened. He thought to himself, "It\'s not her, she has no injury on her buttocks. My sword is extremely sharp. Back in the day, when I was stabbed in the buttocks by a celestial sword, I was bedridden for quite some time before I recovered. If it was her, she would have screamed in pain when I pinched her buttocks, not like the scream just now..."
Behind them, Xing Jiangmu stared blankly at the scene, his face as pale as death.
