Chapter 310: Cloud Palace, Cloud City

"South of Zhongzhou, according to legend, there is a heavenly palace above the clouds of the Ninth Heaven, where immortals practice cultivation."

"According to the Jiuzhou Shiyi, during the Grain Full and White Dew seasons every year, the gods in heaven will come down to earth to save the suffering people on earth."

The mountain path was bathed in the afterglow, and as the sun moved westward, everything gradually became dim.

Pei Qian was holding a brand new book, riding a black demon horse while reading. Suddenly, he frowned and said, "Senior Long, what is recorded in this book is too outrageous. There is no such thing as a god. It is clearly just a warrior in the Cloud Palace."

Fang Xuan was riding a white horse with a dogtail grass in the corner of his mouth, and his deep eyes occasionally swept across the mountains and forests on both sides.

After getting clues about the Yun Palace from the Sutra Library in the Martial Temple, Fang Xuan did not delay and set off with Pei Qian after a day of rest.

Pei Qian originally wanted to borrow "Jiuzhou Shiyi" from the Sutra Repository, but when he failed, he bought a copy from a roadside shop.

The new book was indeed very exquisite, but many of the things recorded in it were so fascinating that even Pei Qian, who loved novelty, shook his head after reading it.

The Yun Palace is located in the south of Zhongzhou. Even if you ride a magic horse, it will take half a month to get there.

Soon, the two came down the mountain road and passed the foot of the mountain. The wide official road was right in front of them. Once on the official road, the demon horse could fully exert its speed.

At the foot of the mountain, there were two figures standing.

A man and a woman, they were Princess Linyang and Li Chengqian.

Princess Linyang was originally very beautiful. Although she was wearing a loose grey robe, her protruding breasts and upturned buttocks exuded a seductive charm.

However, Li Chengqian was still wearing black armor, with sharp features on his face and a heroic look.

Seeing Fang Xuan and Pei Qian appear, Li Chengqian laughed, clamped his legs around the horse's belly, and walked towards Fang Xuan.

"Brother Fang, are you planning to go to Yun Palace? We have some connections with Yun Palace, so we can help a little."

Fang Xuan looked normal and did not react much to Li Chengqian's enthusiasm.

"Brother Fang killed Chu Yuanzhen for the people. I really want to make friends with Brother Fang." Li Chengqian said sincerely and clasped his fists towards Fang Xuan.

Fang Xuan just nodded politely, and was hesitating whether to take Li Chengqian and the other person with him.

Li Chengqian still had a smile on his face, waiting for Fang Xuan to give a clear answer.

From these few contacts, he could feel that if Fang Xuan disagreed with something, he couldn't force it.

In these troubled times, one must be more tactful when making friends, especially when approaching someone with a purpose, and must not act too deliberate.

Seeing Fang Xuan was still hesitant to express his opinion, Princess Linyang looked at Pei Qian and blinked her big eyes: "Master Pei, there is a market in Yun Palace. You can't buy rouge and powder there outside. I will take you there when the time comes."

Pei Qian, who was still pretending to read, immediately put the book down. A gleam of light flashed in his eyes. He looked at Fang Xuan expectantly, and then said in a deep voice: "Sister Linyang, I can't make the decision on this matter."

Seeing Pei Qian pretending to be unmoved, Fang Xuan found it a little funny. After thinking about it, he realized that even if Princess Linyang and Li Chengqian followed him, it would not have any impact on him, so he nodded slightly and said, "Follow them."

South of Zhongzhou, near the West Sea, there is an island called Yundao.

The entire island is in the shape of an inclined circle, with a huge mountain range inside that occupies two-thirds of the entire island.

There is a dark jungle in the mountains, and some debris can be seen from time to time. According to legend, this place was once an ancient battlefield. Seeing that the spiritual energy was abundant here, Yun Gong moved the sect here.

One third of the island outside the mountains is where ordinary people live. Because the war in Kyushu did not spread here, the entire island is a rare paradise.

Yun Island is separated from Zhongzhou by only a river, and ordinary warriors can fly across it using their Qi, so there is no ferry between the two places.

Half a month later, Fang Xuan and his four companions left the demon horse in the nearest town and walked there.

When we arrived at Yun Island, there was a huge city called Yun City.

From a distance, the city looks like a round bucket.

The city is always brightly lit, day or night.

"This Cloud Island is rich in a kind of stone called Cloud Crystal, which is the most important material for forging treasures. Therefore, there are many warriors in this city, and the local indigenous residents only account for a small part."

"Linyang once promised Brother Fang a scabbard. There may be good stuff in the market of Yun Palace. I will take Brother Fang for a look then." After entering Yuncheng, Li Chengqian took the initiative to exchange tokens with the guards outside the city and handed them to the three people respectively.

Afterwards, he walked side by side with Fang Xuan, talking about the legends and past of Yuncheng and Yun Palace, and Fang Xuan responded politely.

Pei Qian seemed to be chatting enthusiastically with Princess Linyang. A noble woman who loved beauty and the heir to a hidden sect who loved to dress up as a beauty soon created a different kind of spark.

After finding an inn to stay in, Princess Linyang couldn't wait to drag Pei Qian to the city market.

Fang Xuan also planned to stroll around Yuncheng in order to understand the structure of the city so that he would not be left without a head if something unexpected happened.

On the street shrouded in darkness, Fang Xuan's figure in the dark looked like a ghost.

There are many casinos and brothels on the streets, which are brightly lit and quite prosperous.

After passing a few streets, there were fewer and fewer pedestrians on the street. Suddenly, I heard footsteps behind me. From a distance, a group of warriors in white Taoist robes appeared. They all had a solemn look on their faces, and a chill was all over their bodies.

They had a clear purpose as they searched the surrounding buildings. There was a cloud embroidered on their Taoist robes, and they were obviously disciples of the Cloud Palace.

Soon, these people noticed Fang Xuan, and a murderous aura loomed over Fang Xuan.

Just as Fang Xuan was about to leave, the Yun Palace disciples surrounded him. The young man in the lead looked Fang Xuan up and down with a cold expression: "Warrant!"

Fang Xuan threw the token issued by the city gate out. After the other party took a look, he was a little surprised and smiled to his companions:
"Are people from the Dayang royal family also interested in coming here?"

Fang Xuan frowned slightly: "Why, Yuncheng doesn't welcome you?"

The young man was stunned for a moment, and his tone turned cold: "Of course you are welcome, but I don't recommend you walk alone on this street late at night!"

After saying that, the young man threw the token to Fang Xuan and waved his hand. A group of people quickly passed by Fang Xuan and soon disappeared into the darkness of the street.

Fang Xuan felt a little puzzled and was about to leave when a shrill scream pierced the night sky in the distance.

The sound was sharp and echoed continuously.

Fang Xuan's expression condensed, and the scarlet royal pupil activated instantly. As the golden vertical pupil appeared, everything in half of Yuncheng appeared in Fang Xuan's eyes.

At this time, at the end of the street, the disciples of the Yun Palace were chasing a black shadow. The black shadow was extremely fast and injured several Yun Palace disciples while fleeing.

At this moment, a white light suddenly flashed across the night sky, and a middle-aged man in a white robe appeared in the light.

The man looked calm and majestic, and the energy in his body was like a ball of burning flame.

After pausing in mid-air, he quickly locked onto the dark shadow fleeing in the darkness. Then he raised his right hand, and a long sword instantly appeared in his hand, which he threw directly out.

The void seemed to be pierced, and the huge energy waves that were stirred up spread in all directions in the air with a rumbling sound. The long sword directly turned into an aurora in the air and rushed straight towards the black shadow.

From afar, the peaceful night seemed to be torn apart in an instant. Yes, the aurora was exceptionally gorgeous in the night sky.

The sword was extremely fast and in an instant, it broke through the void with a terrifying sonic boom and pierced directly through the chest of the black shadow, nailing the body directly to the stone pillar on the street.

The terrifying aftermath of the energy swept in all directions.

Clean and neat!

"Blood Martial Saint!"

Seeing the attack from the man in white robe, Fang Xuan's heart moved slightly and he moved his lips.

"Caught!"

"Let's go and see if he's dead or not!"

Soon, the disciples of Yun Palace rushed forward and surrounded the black shadow whose aura had become extremely weak.

Fang Xuan didn't know what was going on, so in order to avoid any further complications, he also walked towards the inn.

After leaving the long street, there were still dim lights everywhere. The noisy shouting from the gambling house and the romantic gossips of the women in the brothels kept spreading in the wind, as if nothing that had just happened in the long street had happened.
