This young man in white is none other than a disciple of the Sky Poison Sect, number one after Master Du and Jiuxing Lian'er.
Chi Yao.
The name Chi Yao is not his real name.
He felt ashamed even to say it.
Hearing Chi Yao frankly reveal his real name, Jiuxing Lian'er stared at him coldly. There was only coldness in her eyes, no hatred. She could understand the pursuit for several days.
"Qilin Ancient City? What does this have to do with your pursuit of this woman?" Zhang Wensheng looked puzzled. "I heard from her that you two are from the same sect. Why would you kill your fellow disciples in this Demon Valley?"
"That's right, fellow disciple..."
Chi Yao pulled a faint smile from the corner of his mouth: "She and I are indeed from the same school."
"Qilin Ancient City... If I hadn't mentioned it, this city would have almost disappeared from people's memory. That city existed ten years ago."
"Ten years... for cultivators like us, it's just a blink of an eye, yet it can make an entire city vanish from the world."
Zhang Wensheng immediately looked puzzled. "A mere ten years is indeed a fleeting moment, not worth mentioning. But if you say that ten years can cause a city to disappear from the world, I don't believe it."
Hearing this, not only Chi Yao, but even Jiuxing Lian'er looked at Zhang Wensheng in surprise.
Does this guy really not know or is he pretending to be stupid?
Could it be that you couldn't hear the deeper meaning in Chi Yao's words?
In response to this, Bai Gong shook his head slightly, feeling a little helpless.
This is him, a young master who has not been baptized by the secular world and the cruel world of cultivation.
Chi Yao didn't care whether Zhang Wensheng really didn't understand or was just pretending, and continued, "Ten years ago, I was still an ignorant teenager. My parents were still alive, and I was the young master of Qilin Ancient City."
"One day, I was spotted by a cultivator who said I had the talent to cultivate immortality and wanted to take me in as his disciple to help me cultivate."
"But at that time, I was greedy for pleasure and immersed in the protection brought by my parents. I rejected the monk... When I think about it today, I can still vividly remember the look of him shaking his head in disappointment."
Chi Yao recalled the past. Those were the only good times left in his memory. As he talked about it, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
In response, Mr. Bai had a blank expression on his face. He just felt that Zhang Wensheng was wasting his time and wanted to interrupt him, but seeing how seriously Zhang Wensheng was listening, he knew he couldn't stop him.
Of course, Zhang Wensheng was not moved by what Chi Yao said.
His life was much happier than Chi Yao's. Compared with him, Chi Yao was like a frog in a well looking at the moon in the sky. They could not be compared.
However, he was somewhat curious about the man who had a bleak face but a smile on his lips. He wondered what had happened to him that had made him become like this.
"Do you know?"
"Although our Qilin Ancient City lacks overall strength, it is one of the few cities that has not experienced war. Even the city's army is formed by the people themselves and is extremely loose."
"My parents only need to manage domestic affairs, because we don't even have anyone to fight against."
Chi Yao smiled, then suddenly his expression became serious. "Until one day, when my parents went out, they brought back a tiger-striped elk with purple flames under its feet. They regarded it as a divine beast."
"That tiger-striped elk is truly extraordinary. The flames beneath its feet not only won't hurt people, but can actually heal injuries. Whether it's internal or external injuries, anyone who gets close to it will be healed."
"My parents immediately suppressed the news to prevent it from attracting the attention of those with ulterior motives... But in the end, this tiger-striped elk still brought an enemy to Qilin Ancient City that we could not resist."
"That person was ruthless and cruel. In order to force the tiger-striped elk out, he poisoned and killed everyone in Qilin Ancient City. That tiger-striped elk was quite intelligent. It took me and fled Qilin Ancient City."
"Until I was caught up by the monk, the tiger-striped elk hid me on a cliff. But then I was captured by the monk. I don't know whether I'm alive or dead... Maybe I'm dead. I haven't found it in all these years."
Jiuxing Lian'er listened to Chi Yao's story with an expressionless face. She naturally knew that the cruel and ruthless person he was talking about was her own father, the Du Gong of the Tiandu Sect.
The tiger-striped elk naturally died as well.
He was poisoned and his blood was drained out, and he died.
It was precisely because of this that Du Gong was able to successfully practice the Snake Spirit Creation Technique. If it weren't for the blood of the tiger-striped elk, Du Gong would have died of the poison due to the difficulties of practicing the technique.
"One man massacred an entire city?" Zhang Wensheng exclaimed in shock. "How could there be such a person in the world who kills innocent people so wantonly?"
"As a cultivator, you actually resorted to cruelty on mortals!?"
"This is between the four of us..."
"Cough cough." Mr. Bai coughed a few times.
Zhang Wensheng paused, then continued, "This is strictly prohibited in our place. Monks are not allowed to massacre mortals on a large scale, otherwise the great monks will take action to suppress and execute them."
Chi Yao was anxious and exhausted, with a death wish in his heart, and he did not notice anything unusual in Zhang Wensheng's words, but Jiuxing Lian'er seemed to be thinking about something and secretly glanced at Zhang Wensheng.
"Haha..." Chi Yao sneered, "Does the King of Jingwu still care about us?"
"After witnessing my parents and everyone in Qilin Ancient City die tragically before my eyes, I realized that rejecting that cultivator was the biggest mistake I had ever made in my life."
"After being rescued by a kindhearted person on the clifftop, I changed my name and surname, even resorting to self-harm. I used poison to disguise myself, and secretly infiltrated the sect of that beast, lying dormant there, waiting for the opportunity."
"I'm cautious in everything I do, changing my appearance and my name, just to wait for an opportunity."
Chi Yao's voice gradually rose, and he became excited: "I want that beast to have a taste of losing its loved ones. I want that beast to suffer a fate worse than death, otherwise I will be very angry and my heart will be uneasy!"
"She turns out to be the daughter of your enemy." Zhang Wensheng was kind-hearted and not stupid. He quickly understood what Chi Yao said and turned to look at Jiuxing Lian'er.
That pretty but paper-pale face was now covered with frost.
"That's right!" Chi Yao grinned, his expression ferocious. "I deliberately asked that beast to stay by her side during the trip to the Demon Valley in the name of protection."
"Just waiting for the opportunity."
Jiuxing Lian'er stared at him. This man was very scheming and planned every step carefully. He was really scary. He hid it so deeply that not only her, but even Du Gong didn't notice anything from beginning to end.
Not only that, in addition to changing the appearance and name.
He also hid his cultivation.
Chi Yao is not a cultivator at the ninth level of Qi Condensation, but at the tenth level!
That day, after she and Xue Kong separated at the entrance of the Earth Demon Valley, they were hunted down by Dianlongdaofeng. Even with the strength of Dianlongdaofeng, who were both at the tenth level of Qi Condensation, they were unable to kill her and Chi Yao.
In the end, the two of them escaped, but were injured as a result.
Jiuxing Lian'er never expected that just when she felt she was temporarily safe, Chi Yao suddenly attacked her from behind and injured her. Only then did she see the true face of this man under his false mask.
However, as the daughter of the Poison Lord, she has many magical weapons and countless spiritual beasts and poisonous insects, and the cultivation method she practices is no worse than the Poison Lord's snake spirit creation method.
Even if you get injured by a sneak attack.
Even though she was only slightly behind Chi Yao in cultivation, she still managed to escape for several days, despite the death of all her spirit beasts and poisonous insects and the destruction of many magic weapons, and survived to this day.
