Chapter 247: Southern Country, Dao Alliance, War is Coming

iers, and in recent years, he hasn't done anything wrong. At the very least, I don't want to kill him.Hearing this, the old master sighed and patted Qi Tian's shoulder, saying:"Alas! All this trouble...After leaving Mount Tu, Qitian said to the three women:

"So, what are your plans now Where do you want to go Since the original plan is ruined, we should come up with something new."

Xia He pondered for a moment, then said:

"I'll go into seclusion too. Since my girl is preparing to break through to the realm of merging emptiness and Tao, I'll go into seclusion to protect her."

And, during this time, while I was at the Bittersweet Tree in Tushan Mountain, I saw some things that gave me new insights into the way of the seven emotions and six desires.

I need a little time to digest this. So, I'll go meditate in your inner world for now."

After hearing this, Qitian nodded and said:

"Alright, since you have something, do as you please. If you want to come out, just let me know."

Xia He: "Mmm, got it, got it."

Then, Qitian turned to Keisha and He Xi: "What about you two"

"I also want to go into seclusion. I feel that my strength is still far behind. Even if I can't help you, I can't hold you back."

And I have a feeling that my Five Element Way can be even more profound!

"Alright, you have your own ideas then. Just don't go overboard, and there will be no problems. Besides, the Way of Five Elements is not as simple as you think."

Finally, Qi Tian turned his gaze to He Xi. Seeing this, He Xi shook her head directly and said:

You don't have to look at me, I don't want to go into seclusion. I just got to another world, how could I possibly go into seclusion

Xia He went into seclusion because she had gained some insights due to the Bitter Love Tree,

And Kaisa, having been a queen for so long before, finds herself not the most powerful here, which is why she's so determined to improve her strength.

But I'm different. I don't have that strong of a desire for it, so...

Hearing this, Qitian nodded and said, "Alright, since you want to be outside, then come with me."

"Have you decided where you're going"

"Of course, there's a place I'm very interested in."

"Where is it" He Xi asked curiously.

"You'll see when you get there. Okay, Xia He, Kessa, let me send you into the Inner World first."

"He Xi, come with me!"

……………………

Qi Tian followed Tu Shan as he handed him a map of their route. The two began to walk at a leisurely pace.

Until three days later, as the two passed by a village, they saw the villagers rushing about, as if they were avoiding something.

“What's going on It seems like everyone in this village is preparing to flee.”

After hearing what He Xi said, Qi Tian directly said:

"It's not like it seems, they are clearly fleeing."

After finishing his words, Qitian stepped forward and stopped an elderly gentleman.

"Excuse me, sir. My name is Qi Tian. I was just passing by and noticed something seemed to be happening here. Could you tell me what's going on"

"Why is everyone packing up things What are you guys going to do"

Upon hearing this, the old man glanced at Qitian and then at the silver-haired crane beside him, He Xi, and said:

"You young whippersnapper! This old man is warning you, get out of here quick, this place is about to become a battlefield!"

We are all going to evacuate. If we stay here any longer, we'll die here."

After hearing this, Qi Tian frowned and said:

"Sir, I wonder what has happened that caused all of you to flee"

After hearing this, the old man said directly:

It's not because of those guys from the Dao Alliance; they're planning to attack the southern border.

And in the south, I don't know what happened either, but they're starting a war too.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Now, both sides are constantly gathering troops. The war is about to break out. If we don't leave now, we'll die here.

Hearing this, Qi Tian frowned and said:

"A huge battle broke out, it's strange, too strange, how could this happen, it shouldn't!"

Just then, a gleam flashed in Qi Tian's eyes, and he said:

"Grandfather, do you know why they started the war"

The old man shook his head after hearing this and said, "How could we possibly know that We're just ordinary people."

Those Daoist masters never told us the reason. We only know it now thanks to a young man from our village.

Although he was just an ordinary Taoist priest within the Dao Alliance, he was still able to find out about such a major event.

Qitian: "Thank you, old man, for telling me."

This old geezer shook his head and said:

"Alright, alright, just leave now. Things will get complicated when those monsters from Nanguo arrive."

…………………………

Only after everyone in the village had left did the two of them emerge from the shadows.

"Little Tian, what's going on Could the war reach here too Shouldn't they be fighting somewhere deserted"

"If we were dealing with the monsters from other places, it wouldn't be a big problem. But things are different in the South."

In the south, the monsters here are all experts in poison, and they also use venomous insects. Once a battle begins, it will inevitably be filled with poisonous gas.

"When the wind blows, the poison will spread widely. Although it has been diluted, everyone in this village are just ordinary people."

Hearing this, He Xi's eyes lit up as she looked at Qi Tian and said:

"Wait, you just said centipedes, right Are these the centipedes from your Earth legends"

"Yes, no, you wouldn't want to study insects, would you"

He Xi, I can tell you this, gu worms, you better not mess with them. They're all insects, some even need to be raised inside the body.

So...

"Don't you think I'm stupid I'm just curious. After all, it's just a worm. It's incredible that it could be so useful. It's really intriguing!"

Saying that, He Xi directly hugged Qi Tian's arm and stared at him with her eyes.

Feeling the touch on his arm, and looking into those eyes, Qitian said with a hint of helplessness:

"Okay, okay, hold on. I'll try to figure out how to get some for you, alright"

He Xi: "Hee hee, that's great, here's a reward for you."

Then, He Xi directly kissed Qi Tian on the face.

"Let's go to the village and see what we can find."

After all, being near this southern land, there would inevitably be some poison techniques, or perhaps even sorcery.

He Xi, upon hearing this, immediately grabbed Qi Tian and hurried inside.

Soon, a group of people arrived inside and saw an astonishing sight.

In this village, there was a strange room where sounds could be heard from time to time.

...but the sound it made was a rustling, like sand. Very strange.

And what surprised them the most was that this house was covered in black cloth, with many places enveloped inside.

It's as if it were meant to keep the house perpetually in shadow.

Seeing this, Qi Tian raised an eyebrow and said:

"It seems your luck is good. This place should be a room for raising gu. To use an entire room as a gu vessel, this person's methods are not simple."

An ordinary person can raise insects like centipedes in containers such as jars or bowls.

This is indeed using a house directly as a gu, someone with this ability must have extraordinary power.

Perhaps this master of insect control hasn't left, and is still here.

As soon as the sound of Sun Wukong's words fell, a figure walked out from behind the house.

"桀桀桀! The kid is aware, but this isn't a place for little brats like you to peek into. Get out of here or prepare to feed my precious!"

When Qi Tian heard this, his face turned dark.ried on the backs of others, and some used tree branches as crutches to take shaky steps forward.However, these people were ragged and some even had broken arms, while others had their faces scratched...
