Hu Ruo was taken aback, then said irritably, "Don't you know that the western barrier of the Abyss of All Evil hasn't been broken yet?"
"A barrier? But why didn't I see it when I entered from the east?" Bai Qingnian looked at Bai Yaoguang with a puzzled expression.
Bai Yaoguang also shook her head, indicating that she didn't know.
Hu Ruo looked at the two of them, a mocking expression on his face: "Back then, in order to prevent Long Qianling from escaping, the various races of the demon realm set up a huge barrier in these four directions."
As for your claim that the eastern area is accessible, that's because the barrier there was broken at some point.
Bai Qingnian and Bai Yaoguang exchanged a glance. They were indeed completely unaware of this. They had always thought that they could go deep into the Abyss of Evil, but they never expected that there would be a huge barrier there.
Bai Qingnian felt a pang of sadness thinking about Long Qianling being trapped in the seal and confined by such a large barrier.
For a long time, everyone has entered the depths of the Abyss of Evil from the east, so apart from the older people who know about this barrier, no one else knows about it.
Even Bai Yaoguang herself didn't know.
Bai Qingnian looked into the distance and murmured, "Then how should I get in to find the Great Black Dragon..."
Although his voice was soft, Hu Ruo still heard it. Hu Ruo's gaze fell on him, and he was somewhat surprised to hear him call Long Qianling "Big Black Dragon".
Who exactly is this fox to Long Qianling, that he can call her that?
"Are you going to find Long Qianling?" Hu Ruo asked.
Bai Qingnian paused, then secretly slapped his thigh, wondering why he had blurted it out.
Bai Yaoguang also looked at Bai Qingnian, wanting to know how he would respond to Hu Ruo next.
Bai Qingnian looked up at Bai Yaoguang and saw that she was also looking at him. He didn't know how to answer for a moment.
Hu Ruo noticed his hesitation and said, "I don't know why you want to go deeper in from the west, but it's not like you can't get in from here."
In three days, it will be the night of the Blood Moon. That will be when the barrier is at its weakest, and perhaps then you can enter.
"Blood Moon Night?"
Bai Qingnian looked up at the blood-red sky. He had never seen a blood-red moon before. Could it be that the moon in the Abyss of Evil was different from those in other places?
“Yes, Blood Moon Night.” Hu Ruo nodded.
Bai Qingnian and Bai Yaoguang exchanged a glance, and Bai Yaoguang asked:
"Wait here?"
Bai Qingnian thought for a moment. If they went back now, it would waste a lot of time. If they waited here for three days, they could immediately break through the barrier and enter. After understanding this, Bai Qingnian nodded to Bai Yaoguang: "Let's wait."
...
Night falls.
Bai Qingnian and Bai Yaoguang lit a fire next to Hu Ruo's seal. Hu Ruo also turned back into human form, found a large rock from somewhere, sat inside the seal, and the fire was right in front of her.
The three fell silent for a moment. Hu Ruo looked to the right at Bai Qingnian, then to the left at Bai Yaoguang, and suddenly remembered what she had said earlier. He couldn't help but ask:
"You said before that you wanted to kill Bai Fengfu. What happened between you two?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Qingnian stopped eating the fruit and looked at Bai Yaoguang with the same curiosity.
She was the Fox Emperor's direct descendant, and his third son. Logically, she should have respected and loved the Fox Emperor, not wanted to kill him.
Bai Yaoguang glanced at the two women and saw the same expressions of curiosity and confusion on their faces. She chuckled and asked, "Do you really want to know?"
"Isn't that obvious?" Hu Ruo rolled his eyes at her.
Bai Yaoguang looked up at the star-studded night sky, lost in thought.
Bai Qingnian and Hu Ruo, not understanding what was going on, exchanged a glance and then looked at her again.
After a long while, Bai Yaoguang withdrew her gaze.
Just when Bai Qingnian and Hu Ruo thought she wouldn't tell them, she suddenly spoke up, "The story is a bit long, are you sure you want to hear it?"
Hu Ruo: "Then say it!"
Bai Qingnian: "Listen!"
Then, under their gazes, Bai Yaoguang's face softened, and she slowly began to speak...
"The story begins with an accident. At that time, I suffered a backlash because I failed to advance..."
"You failed to advance too?" Hu Ruo couldn't help but ask.
Bai Yaoguang paused and stopped speaking.
Bai Qingnian glared at Hu Ruo with displeasure: "Don't talk!" Then he looked at Bai Yaoguang: "You continue."
Hu Ruo pursed his lips, but still obediently shut his mouth. Bai Yaoguang couldn't help but laugh out loud, coughed lightly, and continued.
—The Story of Bai Yaoguang—
"Huh? Why is there a little fox here?" A boy in white, holding a flower basket, squatted down next to the red fox.
The red fox was on its last breath. After struggling to open its eyes and glance at the boy, it could no longer hold on and fainted.
"well……"
The boy was startled to see the fox close its eyes. He looked around anxiously and, after confirming that the fox had no owner, carefully picked it up.
"You're injured. Shall I take you home to heal? If you don't say anything, I'll take that as a yes~" the boy muttered to himself, picked up the red fox, stood up, and disappeared in a streak of light.
The land of the dragons.
"Ah Ling is back."
As soon as Long Ling stepped into her house, she ran into her father planting flowers in the yard.
"Father, I found some glass flowers today!" Long Ling happily handed him the flower basket, her eyes full of joy.
The middle-aged man took the flower basket from his hands with a kind expression, and only then did he notice the fox he was holding in his arms.
"Hey, where did you catch that fox?"
Long Ling gently stroked the fox's head: "I found it on the hillside, but it seems to be injured."
"Are you injured? Let your father take a look."
"Here you go," Long Ling obediently handed the fox to him. The middle-aged man examined it carefully and found no wounds on the fox's body. Could it be that its spiritual sense was injured?
The middle-aged man placed his finger on its forehead and infused its demonic power into its body.
Only then did he realize that its consciousness was severely damaged, and he frowned slightly.
Seeing her father frown, Long Ling asked worriedly, "Father, is it injured somewhere?"
"Yes, its consciousness is severely damaged for some reason." The middle-aged man nodded.
"What can be done to save it?" Long Ling asked.
The middle-aged man looked at him, pursed his lips, and hesitated to speak.
“Father…” Seeing that he didn’t speak, Long Ling thought that the fox was beyond saving, and her eyes instantly reddened with anxiety.
Seeing his son on the verge of tears, he quickly explained, "It's possible to save him, but..."
"But what?"
"I need the Dragon Balls. They're currently in the young master's possession. I wonder if he'd be willing to lend them to you..."
"I'll go borrow it!" Long Ling turned around and went out the door.
"Hey... wait a minute!" the middle-aged man called out, but Long Ling had already walked away.
Oh well, let it be.
I wonder if the young master will lend the Dragon Ball to Ah Ling to save this poor little fox.
