Xiao Yuhan had always been wary of Jiang Yining, but at this moment, he didn't care about Jiang Yining's purpose at all. He just wanted to find out what the purpose of this woman in front of him, who called herself Qianyu, was.
Of course, it would be best if she weren't an enemy.
Qianyu continued, "That's all I can say. If you don't move aside, we'll have to fight today!"
Xiao Yuhan, still in the state of physical disintegration, stepped forward and stood in front of Qian Yu. "Do you think I'm joking with you?"
The white-haired woman looked at the lightning dancing in Xiao Yuhan's palm, her expression growing increasingly solemn. She fell silent for a long time before finally saying, "I want to find my soul. I used Han Xiong and Bai Yuanzhou back then for this reason. Now I've come to Beiyuan to search for the secrets of the soul, because there are many souls here that I can study. Are you satisfied?"
Xiao Yuhan was skeptical, but at this moment he suddenly felt uneasy. It seemed that something in his storage magic artifact was trying to break through the barrier. He was afraid that his storage magic artifact would be damaged, so he quickly checked and found that it was the golden pill that the demon emperor had given him after he woke up in Bai Yao's body in Qingquan Town.
At that time, the empress asked him to go to Phoenix Cry Mountain to find a fox demon named Xiao Jiu and give her this item. Xiao Yuhan kept it in mind, but he could never find the so-called Phoenix Cry Mountain.
However, seeing the golden core react, he immediately looked at Qian Yu in front of him, as if he had thought of something. Xiao Jiu, the nine-tailed fox? They are both fox demons. Could they be the same person?
Thinking of this, Xiao Yuhan stared at Qian Yu in surprise, not expecting that Qian Yu would also stare at the golden pill in his hand with a look of surprise.
"Where did you get this thing?"
"You recognize him?" Xiao Yuhan was even more puzzled.
The white-haired woman shook her head. "I don't know, it just feels somewhat familiar..."
Xiao Yuhan became increasingly convinced that the person in front of her was the one the Demon Emperor wanted her to find, and immediately asked, "Do you also have another name, Xiao Jiu?"
Upon hearing the name Xiao Jiu, the white-haired woman seemed dazed and lost in thought. Then, a change occurred in her eyes, as if she was trying to recall something. After a long while, she calmed down, took off the necklace she always wore, and upon closer inspection, she found that the pendant on the necklace was indeed engraved with Xiao Jiu.
Xiao Yuhan asked again, "Do you know what Phoenix Cry Mountain is?"
Upon hearing this, Qianyu slowly said, "Phoenix Cry Mountain? You've actually heard of a place called Phoenix Cry Mountain?"
"This was once a sacred place for the demon race. Who hasn't heard the legends about this place?" Xiao Yuhan retorted.
Her expression grew increasingly dazed, and after a moment of silence, she said again, "A long time ago, the place where the Heavenly Demon Gorge is located wasn't called the Heavenly Demon Gorge. Back then, it was called the Phoenix Cry Mountain Range."
Xiao Yuhan was startled and fell silent. In fact, he had investigated over the past two years and found that Fengming Mountain should be in an extremely remote part of Xiliang. Thinking about it this way, it did make sense. "Where the sun sets in the western wilderness of Pingliang, even gods and ghosts are not as good as Blood Spirit Abyss." Blood Spirit Abyss, where Heavenly Demon Valley is located, could indeed be close to Fengming Mountain, or even be the same place.
At this moment, Xiao Yuhan was somewhat convinced that this person was the one the Demon Emperor wanted him to find. He immediately let go of her hand, and the golden pill in his hand slowly flew up. He did nothing, and the golden pill seemed to have been made for Qian Yu. After flying around her several times, it came to her brow and entered her mind.
At this point, Qianyu's expression gradually turned painful. She thought that Xiao Yuhan had used some kind of trick and was about to take action, but she seemed to realize that this thing would not harm her, so she immediately endured the pain and suffered everything.
After an unknown amount of time, a glimmer of light returned to the white-haired woman's eyes, which also filled with tears. "Empress... I have failed you..."
Xiao Yuhan was taken aback, certain that she hadn't come to the wrong person. She was about to ask something when Qian Yu suddenly asked excitedly, "Who gave you this?! Where is she?"
"It is Bai Yao, whom I came to find at the beginning!" Xiao Yuhan said truthfully, but as soon as he said it, he regretted it. After all, even now, he couldn't figure out whether the Empress inside Bai Yao was friend or foe, and he couldn't be sure whether this woman was friend or foe.
Qianyu didn't say much, but after thinking for a while, her expression became somewhat flustered. "No! No! We can't let her fall into Yu Hui's hands. Yu Hui will kill her!"
Hearing this, Xiao Yuhan became even more flustered, "What happened? Explain yourself!"
At this moment, Qian Yu seemed to have figured something out. He then clasped his hands in a fist salute to Xiao Yuhan and said, "Thank you for today's matter, but I don't have time to waste with you now. Rest assured, I will protect Bai Yao, whom you mentioned. That's all! Farewell!"
After saying that, Qian Yu disappeared from the spot. Her movement technique was so strange and unpredictable that even Xiao Yuhan could no longer track her aura. He immediately exclaimed, "The true Dao Integration Realm is indeed powerful. Even if I cultivate for another hundred years, I probably still can't achieve such a movement technique!"
"System reminder: The protagonist's aura has just been detected!"
"Huh?" Xiao Yuhan was taken aback. After thinking about it carefully, he realized that he had been holding the golden pill for so long without finding Xiao Jiu, but now that he had just seized the protagonist's halo, his luck had immediately turned around. He immediately found it unbelievable. "Are you sure it's the protagonist's halo that's working?"
"System notification: The protagonist's halo will detect the host's current situation and detect anything that is advantageous to the protagonist. It will also advance the protagonist's advantageous conditions and make them develop in a positive direction, giving the protagonist an advantage!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuhan was somewhat puzzled, feeling that the system was just trying to fool him. After all, it was a stretch to attribute something as luck-based as the protagonist's halo.
