Chapter 175: Searching for People (2)
Tao Zi smiled, stroked its furry back, and said, "So, there can't be any problems with the Tiandao Sect."
The little fox said gloomily, "Speaking of this topic, you human cultivators really have the upper hand."
Li Xiu looked at it in bewilderment and said, "Are you talking about that war? We monks also paid a heavy price."
"No matter how great the price, can it be greater than the price paid by us and the mortals?" The little fox glanced at him and said, "Our Beast Palace is gone, the mortal royal family is gone, and the entire Xuanyue Continent has become yours."
Li Xiu was speechless. The little fox continued to complain indignantly, "At that time, although the Xuanyue Imperial Family had been suppressing the demon race, they were also warning you cultivators. The elders in my clan said that back then, the demon race, human cultivators, and mortals formed a three-way balance of power, and no one could move against the other. But when the alien race arrived, you cultivators became the biggest beneficiaries."
He couldn't bear to listen any longer and said, "We cultivators also paid a great price. During that time, countless powerful people perished, and countless sects were wiped out. In the past three thousand years, no one has ascended to heaven."
"Stop! You're making it sound like nothing's wrong with mortals and demons."
Seeing that the man and the fox were about to quarrel, Tao Zi said with a headache: "Okay, let's stop talking about this. I'm going to rest."
The two men shut their mouths, still looking unconvinced.
After Li Xiu left, the little fox wanted to continue talking to her, but Tao Zi said directly: "Li Xiu doesn't know about those things that happened back then, but I know them well."
The little fox said confidently: "What do you know?"
"Back then, the human race also had three sects and four schools, and they were all destroyed. The Tiandao Sect was founded by the survivors of the three sects and four schools. In terms of losses, they were not as severe as your demon race."
The little fox was stunned and stopped talking.
Tao Zi thought of the things described in ancient books, sighed, and stopped talking.
The bracelet on her wrist suddenly felt hot, and Tao Zi opened her eyes immediately. A faint voice sounded in her ears: "Are all three sects and four schools gone?"
It was the voice of the physical cultivation senior.
She responded in her heart.
A sigh sounded and quickly faded away.
Tao Zi didn't rest for long before she started practicing again. She opened the storybook her master had given her, looking for techniques.
The inner demon emerged and watched her with great interest.
Tao Zi endured the chattering of her inner demon, looking a little depressed.
The fox came closer, puzzled. "What are you looking at? Why do you look like that?"
When it noticed the content, its eyes widened and it said, "Tao Zi, I really can't believe you actually like to watch this kind of thing."
She had a cold face and flipped through the pages faster and faster until she finally found it.
Sure enough, she had also practiced this technique.
By noon, she was almost familiar with the technique, so she closed the book and went out with the little fox.
The little fox started to struggle: "Hey, I won't go out!"
"I won't be back in the afternoon, and I won't be back in the evening."
The little fox finally stopped struggling and said reluctantly, "Okay, but remember, in front of outsiders, I'm just an ordinary fox."
"OK."
Tao Zi walked out with it and happened to run into Han Yueshan. He smiled and said, "I was thinking of inviting Senior Sister to dinner. Now it's just right."
She looked at his expression and said, "Are you in a bad mood?"
"Yeah, a little." He put away his smile and said helplessly, "I can't find Sister Huanle. This makes me a little worried."
Tao Zi smiled and said soothingly, "It'll be okay. I'll go with you to look for it tonight."
He cheered himself up and said, "Okay."
While sitting downstairs, Xi Jing looked at the little fox with envy and said, "Senior Sister, can I hug you?"
The little fox's voice rang in her mind: "Let her hold my cousin."
Tao Zi asked, "Can't I hold Jiao'er?"
Xi Jing shuddered and shook her head frantically. The things in the ruins left a deep impression on her.
Cousin Jiao'er looked at her quietly, with a look of grievance on her fox face. Xi Jing's shaking of her head slowed down, and finally she remained silent.
Han Yueshan winked at her senior sister: Tonight, either Zhao Xue or Xi Jing will be unlucky.
Tao Zi understood what he meant and was speechless.
After finishing her meal, she said, "I'll go to the various sects' management halls and ask if there's a photo of someone summoning Le."
Han Yueshan's eyes lit up and he said excitedly, "Senior Sister, how did you come up with this idea? I never thought of this good idea."
Tao Zi smiled and looked at Li Xiu.
Li Xiu accepted his fate and gave them a lot of money and even some good pills.
She smiled and said, "Then I'll go to the Minglan Sect's steward hall first."
"Okay." Han Yueshan paused and said, "A large sect like this is unlikely to send out a photo of a prostitute."
"I have to go and see it."
Tao Zi stood up and walked out, walking alone towards the management hall set up by Minglan Sect here.
She also bought a cape along the way.
When she arrived at the steward's hall, she stood at the door and looked around.
Two-thirds of the entire street was occupied by this management hall, which showed how powerful it was.
The guard at the entrance of the steward's hall spotted her and scolded her, "You are not allowed to stay here."
She smiled gently and said, "Young man, I have a good friend who is a mortal under the name of your steward hall. I want to find her residence."
The guard frowned and said, "We don't allow the exposure of your ID card here. Please leave and don't come here to ask."
Tao Zi raised her eyebrows, the rule didn't change.
She stepped forward and thrust something into his hand.
The guard hesitated for a moment, then nodded and let her in, whispering, "There's a reception area inside. Just sit there, and someone will come to question you. Remember, don't say 'friend,' say 'sister,'"
"Thanks for the tip, little brother."
Tao Zi walked in.
She sat in the reception area for a long time before someone came over. Their tone was lazy and condescending: "What are you doing here?"
Tao Zi repeated her purpose and stuffed some things in.
He weighed the item in his hand, and said in a softer tone, "What is the identity of your sister?"
"Back then, our family fell on hard times, and my sister had no choice but to become a prostitute."
The man's face turned cold, and he looked a little disdainful: "We in the Minglan Sect don't have any photos of prostitutes. You've come to the wrong place. Let's go."
Tao Zi slowly stood up and said with a smile: "Sorry to bother you."
She walked onto the street, with a rather strange look under her cloak. Three years ago, there were quite a few prostitutes under the name of Minglan Sect. If there were none left now, then where had they gone?
Tao Zi walked slowly, and when she reached the next sect's management hall, she went in and explained her purpose again.
I was busy like this for the whole afternoon, but there was no trace of Huanle.
Han Yueshan and the others didn't get any information either. When they met, he said depressedly, "Sister Huanle came here, so why is there no news?"
Xi Jing asked hesitantly, "Did you change your name?"
Tao Zi said: "That will be even harder to find."
