Chapter 657 The three major barbarian families!
"good!"
Ye Mu put his thoughts aside for the moment and looked at Xiahou Tie with gratitude.
The first thing he needs to do now is to make himself stronger as quickly as possible.
Thinking of this, he looked at the dead tiger and said, "Qiu Jicheng, build a fire, roast the meat, eat and drink enough, and then go up the mountain at night. There will surely be plenty of prey waiting for us."
Soon, while Ye Mu and Xiahou Tie were chatting, Qiu Jicheng and others skinned the tiger and roasted its meat, and took out several jars of wine from the Sumeru Ring.
When night fell completely and a crescent moon rose from the sky, everyone had packed up and was ready to set off.
"Tiezi, do you have a map of Longhu Mountain?"
Ye Mu said quietly, "We've already tested the magic weapon I forged on that man and two tigers, so there's no need to keep looking for prey to obtain the inner elixir. It would be better if we took a shortcut to the top of the mountain, rested for a night, and then set off for Zhongshan City tomorrow morning."
"Although I don't have a map, it's very easy to just walk to the top of the mountain."
Xiahou Tie had come here once with his grandfather and pointed to the end of the mountain stream where they were. "Walk to that canyon and you'll see a stone staircase leading to the top of the mountain."
"Set off."
Ye Mu no longer hesitated.
The group walked together all the way and soon reached the stairs leading to the top of the mountain.
"Brother Mu, there is also a Taoist temple on this Longhu Mountain. We can stay there for one night." Xiahou Tie introduced the information he knew to Ye Mu as they walked.
Ye Mu had anticipated this, but he suddenly remembered the identity of the woman in the tiger-skin skirt he had just killed. "Can you guess the identity of that woman in the tiger-skin skirt?"
"That woman..."
Xiahou Tie said thoughtfully, "Based on her attire and her short temper, she should be from a certain tribe in the Southern Territory. As for more specifics, I don't know."
"Besides the barbarians, what other ethnic groups are there in the Southern Territory?" Ye Mu had some understanding of the Southern Territory. After all, Man Lei, who was on good terms with him, came from the barbarians, the largest ethnic group in the Southern Territory.
"Young Master, I do know a thing or two."
Qiu Jicheng next to him has been wandering around the world for many years and has far more experience than Xiahou Tie.
"Tell me about it." Ye Mu asked.
"It is most likely the Blood Tiger Clan, the affiliated family that betrayed the Barbarian Behemoth Clan five years ago!" Qiu Jicheng's tone was firm, as if he had already made up his mind.
"The Blood Tiger Clan? Did they ever betray the Behemoth Clan?" Ye Mu had never heard of this.
"Brother Mu, the barbarians are just a general term, and the Behemoths are the most powerful of the three major barbarian clans. So when people mention the Behemoths, they will think of the barbarians. The other Blood Tigers and Silver Wolf clans have a smaller heritage, very few numbers, and are rarely mentioned." Xiahou Tie explained at this time.
"Can the Blood Tiger and Silver Wolf tribes also transform?" Ye Mu asked in surprise.
"certainly."
Qiu Jicheng continued, "However, the Blood Tiger and Silver Wolf tribes' transformation abilities are not as good as the Behemoth tribe's. The Blood Tiger tribe needs to rely on constant killing to achieve transformation, while the Silver Wolf tribe needs a full moon day."
"No wonder the woman in the tiger-skin skirt was so domineering. It turns out that the blood of killing is flowing in her body." Ye Mu suddenly understood everything.
The Silver Wolf Clan needs a full moon to transform, and he knew a similar legend on Earth.
According to legend, there is a wolf tribe in the Western world, and they can only transform during a full moon.
He even wondered if there was any connection between the Silver Wolf Clan of the Tianxuan Realm and the Western Wolf Clan on Earth?
After all, there was one thing he still hadn't figured out, and he hadn't had time to ask the local natives of Tianxuan.
Why is it that in this Tianxuan Realm, there are only humans with Eastern faces, and no one with Western faces?
Could it be that people with Western faces are not qualified to enter the Tianxuan Realm?
Or are people with Western faces going to another space that belongs only to Westerners?
"Brother Mu, that's the gym."
At this time, several people walked and talked, and soon arrived at the top of the mountain. Xiahou Tie pointed.
The Taoist temples are located in an orderly manner, with candlelight flickering in the night.
"not good!"
Ye Mu was stunned.
He actually smelled a special scent from here!
It was the same aura as the woman in the tiger-skin skirt whom he had killed before!
"Brother Mu, what's wrong?" Xiahou Tie was puzzled.
Even Qiu Jicheng and Yan Jing, who were at the same Void Realm as Ye Mu, were puzzled.
Naturally, they also tried to sense the things nearby, but did not notice anything unusual.
"As expected, there are at least two more Blood Tiger Clan members in the gym!" Ye Mu lowered his voice and warned everyone, "However, since we're here, we might as well make the best of it. If anyone asks about our itinerary, everyone will insist that we climbed the mountain via the steps."
Everyone nodded.
At the same time, he also understood why Ye Mu was so cautious.
After all, the woman in the tiger-skin skirt and the two tigers just now had already made them spend a lot of effort.
If the two people from the Blood Tiger Clan in the gym also have cultivation levels above the Void Realm, then they must be doubly careful and not show any sign of abnormality.
"We have only one purpose for climbing the mountain, which is to admire Mount Longhu. We will descend tomorrow morning." Ye Mu reminded him again, "If anyone asks about our identities, we can just say we are from the Xiahou family and are going to Zhongshan City to attend the wedding of the emperor's son."
His arrangements were also intended to tell outsiders that they were upright and honest, and that their actions could stand the test of scrutiny.
After this matter was settled, Ye Mu took the lead and walked forward.
Xiahou Tie reminded Ye Mu from the side, "Brother Mu, if something unexpected happens, we can actually get rid of them."
"Of course." Ye Mu raised his eyebrows.
Since the Blood Tiger Clan betrayed his good brothers, the Behemoth Clan, they are now his enemies.
"My dear guests, I am honored to visit you at night."
Just when Ye Mu was about to knock on the door, it was opened by an old man with white hair and beard inside.
"You're welcome."
Ye Mu and the others returned the greetings one after another.
"Do you want to stay for one night?" The old Taoist priest smiled slightly and shook the whisk in his hand.
"Yes, thank you for your help, Taoist priest. This is our incense money." Xiahou Tie bowed modestly and politely, then took out a bag of black crystal stones.
"Please follow me."
The old Taoist priest took the bag of purple crystals calmly, stepped out and closed the door.
The moment he closed the door, Ye Mu clearly saw that among the people in the room, except for two middle-aged people, a man and a woman, the rest were dressed as Taoist priests.
As the door closed, the old Taoist priest guided Ye Mu and others to the east wing.
"Dear guests, you haven't had your meal yet, right? I will send someone to prepare it right away. Please take a rest first. The conditions in the Taoist temple are limited, so I'm sorry to inconvenience you." After the old Taoist priest made some explanations and arrangements, he turned and left.
Ye Mu and his group pushed the door open and walked in.
The facilities in the room are very old, but fortunately they are cleaned well.
A large bunk bed is enough to accommodate about ten people.
"My guess just now was correct. There are two middle-aged people, a man and a woman, dressed exactly like the woman in the tiger-skin skirt. They seem to be the parents of the woman in the tiger-skin skirt." Ye Mu greeted everyone and recounted his observations.
"So how are their cultivation levels?"
This is what Xiahou Tie is most concerned about.
"According to my perception, that man's cultivation is at least in the late Void Realm, while that woman's is in the early Void Realm." Ye Mu's mouth curled up slightly. "We have three Void Realm cultivators on our side. With your attack artifact, it won't be difficult to eliminate that couple."
"That's settled!" Xiahou Tie grinned.
"but……"
Ye Mu changed the subject, "At the moment, we can't rule out the possibility that they have murderous intent. If they transform during the battle..."
