Chapter 40 The Stream of Spirit Qi’s Mutation (Continued 3)

Dan Xiao mountain was in Jiujiang, and among all the others of its kind, it wasn’t a particularly conspicuous one.

However, just like the nearby mountains, in theory this shouldn’t do as a reason to stop it of becoming a popular tourist attraction – in fact it had seven legendary, fantastic views, resulting in incredible potential as a tourist destination.

But reality was different. It could now be regarded as one of the most lonely locations in the Nation Park of Jiujiang.

The reason was very simple. For over a thousand years, a sect resided in Dan Xiao mountain. Its name, White-hart Taoist Temple.

After hearing that his only tenant was under house arrest by her sect, Xu Shenxing went back home and hastily packed up, setting foot on the road to Jiujiang – which was in fact not that far from Jiangjin city.

Thank heaven it was summer vacation, otherwise his school record would have been blown up by this long-term absence.

“Hey, come on, are you still angry?”

“Hmph.” Moli heard Xu Shenxing’s words, but she still folded her arms and didn’t even look at him, “I don’t know such a selfish landlord.”

“I just went to the milk tea shop but didn’t call you! Why are you pouty for so long?”

The reason why Moli was so angry was because Xu Shenxing talked with Xiao Zhengyi there, but didn’t inform her.

“I also wanted to drink some cold, sweet milk tea!”

Moli pouted, still not looking at him.

“Come on, yesterday weren’t you doing homework together with your friend at her house?”

“Mmm… mmm…” Moli acted like a puppy, pouting and emitting unknown sounds out of her mouth, rolling on the ground full of leaves.

“All right, all right! After we bring Qin Xingyan back, I’ll take you there…”

In the end, Xu Shenxing had to make this kind of promise.

Anyway, If they went together with Qin Xingyan, he guessed she would take the initiative to pay for it….

Xu Shenxing secretly schemed in his heart.

Hearing him say so, Moli reluctantly complyed, standing up from the ground.

“By the way, there are not many people here……”

Though the paths were quite clear, they didn’t see many people on Dan Xiao mountain. Even so, there were enormous streams of people on the nearby mountains, forming a strong contrast.

But setting that aside, Xu Shenxing was more concerned with another thing.

According to the information from Xu Feng, usually secret sects would set some defensive measures outside their domains, like magic circles. All to protect their centuries old foundation.

The White-hart Taoist Temple wasn’t an exception. It was said that their Nexus which served to protect the sect didn’t have high antipersonnel force, but instead it had the ability to interfere with people’s cognition. If ordinary people walked through a secret path, they would be unconsciously diverted to other mountains, never finding the true path to the peak.

This was not what the problem was. Or rather, as a protective measure it was quite normal. Now Xu Shenxing was facing a different issue.

He couldn’t find the so-called Defensive Nexus.

He was quite confident when against illusion magic. Even when he was trapped in a huge underground maze in another world, he successfully escaped after chopping the Minotaur into minced meat.

But this time, he really didn’t have a clue…

Not only Xu Shenxing. After looking carefully a long while, Moli also shook her head. She couldn’t find anything either.

Finally, Xu Shenxing couldn’t help but resort to call Xu Feng, hoping to get some kind of hint from him.

With the intention of maintaining a good relations.h.i.+p with Xu Shenxing, Xu Feng agreed at once. He told Xu Shenxing to wait, then went to ask some of his colleagues.

“I never thought that there would be a magic circle on earth that would make even us helpless…” Xu Shenxing looked at the seemingly normal Dan Xiao mountain. He didn’t have the slightest timidity, but there was an itching feeling in his eyes, “It’s been a while since I felt so pumped up!”

Since the Magic Nexus was so strong, its master wasn’t some weakling either. Perhaps this time they would have a really fierce fight.

After he defeated the evil overlord, Xu Shenxing missed this feeling for a long time.

Xu Feng called back after some time.

“I asked and found out that it is kinda problematic… ” Xu Feng started saying some baffling words over the phone, not even waiting for Xu Shenxing to speak.

“What do you mean?”

Xu Shenxing was confused.

“Well, about three days ago a developer started trying to build a tourists’ mountain villa under the foot of Dan Xiao mountain, which accidentally rooted out the Nexus. ”

“That is to say……”

“Now the White-hart Taoist Temple doesn’t have any defence. It is as weak as a shaved chicken… Incidentally, its secular disciples are suing the developer in order to ask for compensation… ”

“……”

Xu Shenxing’s mood turned sour.

This situation was just like, if put into words ‘I got ready to kill a dragon but you tell me it was actually a dog all along?’.

No wonder he couldn’t find the Defensive Nexus, it didn’t exist!

So why he had to be so careful!

He walked with Moli on the path to the peak, a dumb silence drifting in the air. Moli seemed to sense Xu Shenxing’s bad mood, following him without a word.

“Here is a private territory, please don’t go any further.”

A wild White-hart Taoist Temple disciple appeared.

“Do you know Qin Xingyan?” Xu Shenxing scrutinized him from up to down, then suddenly asked.

“Elder Sister Qin? Do you have anything to do with her?”

The disciple didn’t see any Spirit Qi on Xu Shenxing and Moli, so he thought they were just two ordinary people and didn’t want to waste time talking with them. However, after hearing Qin Xingyan’s name he immediately became more serious.

After all, Qin Xingyan was a prodigy in this generation of Tao pract.i.tioners. Her power was extraordinary and her understanding about Taoist spells extremely high, making so that her strength could even match up their masters.

As the best disciple of the White-hart Taoist Temple, she was their pride and the other disciples’ idol.

Xu Shenxing knew nothing about this. He just thought the name ‘Xingyanemon’ fit her nicely.

“I would like to ask, where is she now?”

“Elder Sister Qin is in the solitary…” At first, the disciple had not intended to tell them his sect’s secret, but after taking a look at Moli’s eyes the words involuntarily flowed from his mouth.

“How long has she been there?”

“About one or two months.”

“Where is the solitary room?”

“Behind the mountain.” After saying so, the disciple suddenly woke up, finding out that he was being charmed, “You two devils!”

However, before he finished his words, he saw Xu Shenxing readily breaking a branch from the roadside and gently waving at him…
