Daojun, start from Penglai foundation building

Shancheng Town, Anjia Inn.

The inn is not big, with only a few rooms on the second floor.

In a guest room, under a dim candlelight, Liu Qing quietly looked at the map of Shancheng Town, looking at the mountains and villages one by one.

Jiuliancheng is located among nine mountains, and Shancheng Town is located in Anyang Mountain.

Anyang Mountain covers a very large area, with more than a dozen villages scattered among it, including Liuhe Village, Pingshan Village, etc.

This map of Shancheng Town is extremely detailed. It not only marks the locations of Shancheng Town and various villages, but also the direction of the mountain peaks, the gathering points of various monsters in Anyang Mountain, and so on.

Such a detailed map might not be available in Shancheng Town, let alone Jiulian City.

Liu Qing stared at the map intently, tapping on the coordinates one by one. After a while, a dark shadow climbed in from the window.

After the shadow came in, he whispered, "Miss."

Liu Qing nodded slightly: "What information did you find out?"

The black shadow said: "The Wang family has already known the news. Wang Ziyi from the Wang family came here in person, obviously coming for that thing."

Liu Qing sneered after hearing this: "Wang Ziyi, that's Wang Laogui's most proud son. Wang Laogui sent him here, it seems he is determined to win."

The shadow pondered and said, "Miss, the Wang family knew about this thing, but they didn't tell us. They obviously have other ideas."

Liu Qing slowly stood up and walked to the window. She looked up at the bright moon outside the window, feeling the night breeze in the mountains. Her voice was a little ethereal and a little unreal: "Who can guarantee that there is no ulterior motive?"

"Sanhe County is called the Liu family's Sanhe, but there are so many counties in Sanhe County. Which county can the Liu family completely control?"

"Whether it's the Wang family in Jiulian City, the Mo family in Mo Shui City, or the Yuan family in Heishan City."

"They are all overlords of their respective regions, all of them are Marquis of Baili. The Liu family is just their leader."

"In fact, the Liu family is still weak."

"If the Liu family had another master who could reach the Tongmai Baodan realm..."

Having said this, Liu Qing stopped talking.

Although the Sanhe Liu family is the overlord of Sanhe County and can mediate the conflicts among various counties, the strength of the Sanhe Liu family is not as strong as before.

In the past, the Sanhe Liu Family had countless warriors at the Copper Skin and Iron Bones Realm, more than a hundred warriors at the Blood Moving and Awakening Realm, and several grand masters at the Tongmai Baodan Realm. They were the absolute overlords of the entire Sanhe County.

But ever since the Liu family's old patriarch, Liu Zhao, a grandmaster of the Tongmai Baodan realm, died together with the dragon king in the Black River, the Liu family's strength began to decline, and its reputation became less and less.

In the past, what rare treasures, exotic animals and rare treasures were there in Sanhe County? Who would dare to hide them from the Liu family?

But now, the Wang family, which is only in Jiuliancheng, dares to pretend to obey and secretly act behind the back of the Liu family.

Thinking of this, Liu Qing couldn't help but think of the Yuan family in Heishan City.

The reason why the old patriarch Liu Zhao fought with the Dragon King in Heihe River was closely related to the Yuan family in Heishan City.

Later, the old patriarch died in battle, the Dragon King in the Black River also died, and the Liu family became weak. However, the Yuan family happened to have a grandmaster in the Tongmai Baodan realm at this time.

Who would believe that all this has nothing to do with the Yuan family?

But the Yuan family already has a grandmaster, and the Liu family now only has two grandmasters. They have to stabilize Sanhe City and suppress other county princes with evil intentions, so they can only pretend to be friendly with the Yuan family.

Damn Yuan family!
Damn Wang family!
Liu Qing secretly swore in her heart that if she became a grandmaster, she would definitely wipe out all these guys with ulterior motives!
Suppressing the anger in her heart, Liu Qing turned and looked at the shadow: "The Wang family didn't know that we came to Shancheng Town this time, and I don't plan to let the Wang family know."

"Tell me, if that thing appears, where will it be?"

The shadow looked at the map, pondered for a moment, and pointed his finger in a direction: "Here." Liu Qing looked over and frowned slightly: "Liuhe Village?"

The black shadow explained, "Liuhe Village is surrounded by mountains and rivers. There are two accessible roads, one by the mountain and the other by the water. The monster is very smart. It knows that human warriors are chasing it, so it will definitely escape by taking the mountain and water roads."

"Looking at the entire Shancheng Town, the topography of Liuhe Village is unique."

Liu Qing looked at the map. On the map, Liuhe Village was located by the river, surrounded by mountains. Mountain roads connected the peaks, and the villages were connected to the mountain towns. The terrain was indeed unique.

That thing definitely wouldn't dare to go to Shancheng Town. There are too many people in Shancheng Town. Once it appears, it will no longer be able to hide.

So, there is indeed only Liuhe Village.

Outside Liuhe Village, a furry, snow-white, cat-like and fox-like monster squatted outside the village, looking quietly at the pitch-black Liuhe Village.

The two eyes of this monster were extremely lively, like two pools of clear water, or like two gems, extremely lively, especially the expression, which showed rich emotions like a human, enough to prove the intelligence and extraordinaryness of this monster.

Ordinary monsters would not have such rich emotions and expressions. Monsters that can display such intelligence are usually those at the Blood Moving and Awakening Realm or above.

The monster looked at Liuhe Village, its eyes filled with the same complex emotions as those of a human.

It is not an ordinary monster, it is a nine-tailed cat. The nine-tailed cat can be said to be a monster, or it can be said to be a spiritual beast. The entire nine-tailed cat clan is extremely extraordinary.

This extraordinaryness is not only reflected in the nine-tailed cat's intelligence, which is the same as that of humans, but also in its magical powers.

The nine-tailed cat really does have several lives.

Every time a realm is broken through in practice, the nine-tailed cat will have one more tail and one more life.

When reaching the inner realm of Shenzang, the nine-tailed cat will have nine tails, which are equivalent to nine lives.

The most precious thing about the nine-tailed cat is that it can make a blood pact with humans and share its extra life with them.

Who doesn’t want to have more lives, who doesn’t want to survive in desperate situations?

Therefore, the nine-tailed cat has always been coveted by the great families and sects of the human race, but there are not many nine-tailed cats in the wilderness.

And it has its own owner and its own name.

It's called Jiuxue.

Liuhe Village, Jiuxue has been observing for several days.

Although Liuhe Village looks no different from other villages, the people inside are all extremely fragile creatures.

But it always feels that there is something extraordinary hidden in Liuhe Village.

This feeling was very unique, it was just a feeling of Jiuxue, but it was this feeling that made it stay outside Liuhe Village and not dare to enter easily.

It has been trekking in this mountain range for a long time.

It crossed over 100,000 miles of mountains and rivers to come here just to avoid being hunted down. It carries a big secret, and it must rush to Liuyan Sect with the secret to seek help in order to save its master.

The trek of 100,000 miles through mountains and rivers had exhausted Jiuxue's physical strength. Although it looked intact, it was actually already exhausted.

Jiuxue has always followed the teachings of his master, not getting into conflicts with others and trying not to hurt anyone. But along the way, Jiuxue had no choice: people were looking for his traces everywhere, and he was almost caught several times.

There are too many enemies of the master and people who covet the magical powers of its race.

Now Jiuxue looked at Liuhe Village with a sad look:

It needs to replenish its energy. (End of this chapter)
