Chapter 320: Aliens Appear
Tao Zi watched from afar. The senior appeared beside her and whispered, "It's really like him, Tao Zi. How did you do it?"
She looked at it indifferently: "It is recorded in the books, red clothes, magic sword, and words."
The senior shook his head and said, "Not only that, even the movements and back view are exactly the same, only the voice is a little off."
She was stunned for a moment: "After so many years, it's unlikely that the senior still remembers it clearly. It's just that the atmosphere was just right."
He sighed, "That's true. I can't even remember the Emperor's daughter's voice, appearance, and smile."
Tao Zi suddenly said, "If the Imperial Princess were still alive, she would probably cut a cultivator like me into pieces who harmed the people and took advantage of her."
"Not really. At most, you'll be beheaded in public." The senior said with a gentle smile, teasing, and then said, "You'll do your best to make amends, right?"
This statement didn't make sense, but Tao Zi understood it instantly. Without saying anything, she just nodded silently.
Seeing her like this, the senior continued to ask: "Tao Zi, if your friend fails to dilute the toxicity, will you continue?"
"Senior, are you trying to cleanse me of the sins I've committed?" She smiled. "No need. What's done is done. The plague is still the plague. Its nature hasn't changed at all."
He shook his head. "I just want to know."
Tao Zi put away her smile and said, "No, but I will continue to research and develop it until I succeed or find another way."
The senior sighed and stopped talking.
At the same time, this scene shocked the surrounding people and also reached the ears of various sects.
Lian Qingzhou looked at the picture sent by the disciple guarding the mountain, and his eyes were gloomy for a moment, but no one noticed.
Lan Yongji frowned and said, "This is forcing us to open the valley."
She pretended to be confused and asked, "Why are you forcing us to open the valley?"
"Someone who doesn't know his own limitations is targeting the main peak." Lan Yongji coaxed gently, "Qingzhou, don't worry about these things. Just focus on your cultivation."
She agreed obediently.
He wanted to speak, but he saw the little sister propping up her head with her hands, her expression full of fatigue. The words on his lips suddenly changed: "Qingzhou, you should go back and rest first."
She nodded softly, and then said with concern: "Senior brothers, please rest early too."
Watching her walk out with such a frail figure, Xu Qianjia finally spoke: "No matter what, we have to send someone over there and then blame it on someone else."
"Yes, Brother, I'll arrange it right away."
Watching Lan Yongji leave, Old Xu quietly appeared behind Xu Qianjia and said, "Your junior brother may not be able to accomplish anything."
"I know. Elder Xu, please come with me and take a look at the situation." He continued with a wry smile, "I have too few people around me who can be used. Otherwise, there would be no need to trouble you like this."
"No problem. I'm free anyway, and going out more often will be beneficial to my cultivation. But how are you going to explain this to the outside world? You have to come up with a plan."
Xu Qianjia knocked on the table and said calmly, "If we say this plague was caused by someone with ulterior motives, then everything will be explained."
Mr. Xu asked, "Who?"
He asked without hesitation: "How about Zhufeng?"
Elder Xu nodded and said, "You are the Young Sect Master, so the decision is naturally yours. However, the plague cannot spread, and no matter how worthless a mortal's life is, it cannot be publicly displayed."
"I know that."
At the same time, the village where the plague was spreading was filled with people. They all looked towards the direction of the Valley of Strange Beasts. Many people even knelt down to pray, and cries were heard among the crowd.
The monks surrounding the village looked at each other and continued to stand in silence. One of them quietly transmitted the image back to the main peak.
Lian Qingzhou looked at the image in the photo ball and sneered, saying, "So many temples for the imperial daughters have been left idle and destroyed, and no one cares. Now that they are in trouble, they are begging for help from the dead. It's really ridiculous."
The monk beside him said in a hoarse voice, "Did the Imperial Princess really leave something in the Valley of Strange Beasts?"
Her brows were cold: "I don't know."
The monk laughed twice and asked, "If you don't know, who else can?"
Lian Qingzhou said irritably, "I can't possibly know everything, but it's true that she went to the Valley of Strange Beasts."
She paused, as if remembering something, and continued, "There's a rumor that she did place something in the Valley of Wonderful Beasts, but so many people have gone in over the years, and nothing has been found."
The monk smiled and said, "Perhaps now is the opportunity."
"Alright, I'll find a reason to let you in. Once there's nothing, we'll find those people who are so mysterious and kill them."
"Can."
That night, the Sword Sect and several other sects received a message from Lian Qingzhou, the last disciple of Qinglan Tianzun: Don't bother with the Strange Beast Valley for five days.
They knew very well that the alien race was about to take action, but they didn't know what kind of deal the Minglan Sect had made with the alien race.
Wangxu received an urgent decree from the sect - to leave the Valley of Strange Beasts immediately.
He indifferently put away the letter, looked towards the place where the strange phenomenon had just appeared, and said, "Or was it man-made..."
Yue Qingya had mixed feelings, but his expression remained unchanged: "It's not important. It's better to find that kind of monster first."
Turning around, Qiu Xuanhuan glanced down at the photo ball, then put it away just like Wangxu had done, saying, "Young Master Wang, it's best that you conceal your identity. After all, you represent the Sword Sect to the outside world."
"I understand." He looked into the distance, his tone calm, "Although I don't agree with the sect's approach, I won't stand in opposition."
The three of them made some simple cover-ups and continued on their way to their destination.
In the early morning, a group of people suddenly appeared near the Valley of Strange Beasts. They all had ordinary auras, just like ordinary people, but they were extremely skilled in killing the disciples guarding the mountain.
Tao Zi curved her eyebrows and whispered, "It appeared."
The senior looked at this scene and asked: "Who are these people?"
She was smiling, but her eyes were full of indifference: "Most likely not human."
The senior frowned and murmured, "Alien."
"Senior, you lived in the time of the Imperial Princess. Can you tell me why the alien races care so much about her? From the necklace in Xulan Palace to the broken sword in Jianshan, and now to the Valley of Strange Beasts, what exactly are they trying to do?"
The elder sighed and said, "I was just an ordinary cultivator in that era, so it's impossible for me to know these things. If the one from the Ruins of False Words were here, perhaps he would understand a little. However, the alien race suffered a great loss at the hands of the Empress Dowager, so it seems normal to care about them."
Tao Zi watched those people enter the Wonder Beast Valley, sent a message to Yue Qingya and the woman, and then said, "Maybe we should find time to go to the Xuyan Ruins."
Not long after, the woman came with twenty or thirty monks and said, "Miss, everyone is here."
Tao Zi nodded, looked at them and said, "This journey is a life-or-death journey. You can choose whether to enter or not."
"We are not afraid of life or death!"
