A Bell Protecting Thousand Autumn

Feng Xia had indeed given it some thought as well…

If he had not followed Bai Canghai to the Thousand Autumn Valley, what kind of people and things would he have encountered next?

If he did not get involved with the problems in the Thousand Autumn Valley, would he be able to avoid the risk of becoming enemies with the royal family of Xuanwu Kingdom?

He had mentioned these thoughts to Zhu Youniang, but the girl looked at him strangely instead.

“If we hadn’t met that guy called Bai Canghai, we wouldn’t have been able to leave the Ancient Forsaken Land at all, right?”

It suddenly hit Feng Xia.

The whole situation was never that complicated.

If Bai Canghai had not appeared, the Ancient Forsaken Land would not have opened. Then, he would probably still be fighting spiders, or rather, beating up Zhu Youniang.

Oh no… Ever since Zhu Youniang appeared in front of him in the form of a young girl, he could not bear to think about what he had done in the Ancient Forsaken Land.

“You don’t have to worry. I’m not part of the royal family and I don’t belong to either side.”

Seeing that Sixth Elder Liu Liuyuan remained vigilant, Feng Xia scratched the back of his head and said light-heartedly, “First of all, in the entire Thousand Autumn Valley, other than the Sect Master who has yet to appear, no one would probably be able to defeat me. If I wanted to harm all of you, I could have done so yesterday.”

Liu Chuanyuan gagged, but he did not retort.

With the strength that Feng Xia had displayed, what he said was indeed true. Unless the Sect Master of the Thousand Autumn Valley took action, no one in the Thousand Autumn Valley would be his match!

“So what?”

In the end, Liu Liuyuan only snorted. “The royal family of Xuanwu Kingdom is strong and has more than one Dao Platform Realm expert. As they face our Thousand Autumn Valley, don’t they still have to plan slowly and do not dare to directly attack us?”

Feng Xia thought about that. It seemed to make sense.

Logically speaking, with the strength that Xuanwu Kingdom had displayed on the surface, the combined strength of the four dukes and the emperor would be enough to crush the Thousand Autumn Valley ten times over.

They could even flip the tables and then crush the valley ten more times.

However, not only did the royal family of Xuanwu Kingdom not do so, but they also spent hundreds of years plotting and conspiring both openly and secretly. They used a speed that could only be described as being as fast as a turtle to disintegrate the Thousand Autumn Valley slowly… free(w)ebnovel.com

It was almost like someone still storing documents in a 3.5-inch floppy disk in the year 9120.

“So… what exactly is the royal family of Xuanwu Kingdom so afraid of?”

Feng Xia’s eyes were filled with curiosity and his gaze landed on Liu Chuanyuan, causing the latter to explain subconsciously, “Naturally, it was the thing left behind by the first Sect Master of our Thousand Autumn Valley… Hmm, you don’t know?!”

Halfway through his sentence, Liu Chuanyuan suddenly realized something.

The Thousand Autumn Valley’s trump card was not a top secret. Basically, as long as one’s strength and level were high enough, one would more or less come into contact with it.

—If no one knew about it, how would the royal family of Xuanwu Kingdom know and be so afraid?

Yet Feng Xia actually did not know?!

“I already said that I was just passing by. Why should I know such a thing?” Feng Xia glanced at him speechlessly and shook his head. He made a move to leave. “I only came to the Thousand Autumn Valley because Bai Canghai helped me. Since you guys are unwilling… I’ll go to the royal family of Xuanwu Kingdom and ask them now. I wonder if they’re willing to accept me?”

“Hmph! Even if you’re really… Wait! Brother Feng, are you really leaving?”

At first, Liu Chuanyuan thought that Feng Xia was joking. He did not expect this young man to leave without any hesitation, grabbing the black-haired girl and walking out of the Moon Pavilion without a word, heading straight for the exit of the Thousand Autumn Valley.

Hey, you are leaving too fast!

Are you sure you do not feel any sense of reluctance?

“Brother, come on. It’s not a secret. There’s no harm in telling you.” Liu Chuanyuan could not help but sigh. “If Brother Feng is willing to listen, you can follow me now…”

No matter who Feng Xia was or what purpose he had, he did not see any harm in telling Feng Xia about this.

The opposite situation was actually worse.

If he gave up a Dao Platform expert for such a ridiculous reason and even sent him into the arms of the enemy… It would be too late for regrets later!

“Oh, sure.”

Feng Xia held on to Zhu Youniang and walked out from behind Liu Chuanyuan with a calm smile. “Since fellow practitioner Liu is trying so hard to make me stay, of course I won’t refuse.”

Liu Liuyuan: “???”

Which eye of yours saw that I was trying my best to make you stay?

You are the one who forced me!

“… Never mind. That thing is not exactly a secret. With my authority, I can indeed bring you there to take a look.” After gagging for more than ten breaths, Liu Chuanyuan suddenly realized a problem. “Fellow practitioner… How did you manage to walk out from behind me just now?”

“Because I never left in the first place.”

Feng Xia grinned broadly.

This was actually one of the wonderful uses of the Floating Dream Three Lives Technique. When he used his soul divine power, the Primeval Green Lotus, to heavily shock the opponent’s soul, it would cause a flaw to occur in the opponent’s mind. Then, he would be able to create an illusion and implant it into the opponent’s mind…

In short, he pounded their heads until they hallucinated.

There were two shortcomings. One was that if he did not control his strength well, his opponent would die immediately and there would be no use for the illusion.

The other one was that the illusion could not be too complicated. Otherwise, it would be easy for flaws to be detected. After all, he could only cause an illusion, not brain damage. When the opponent recovered and stabilized, he would naturally discover the abnormality.

“N-no? But I clearly saw—”

Liu Chuanyuan had never felt so lost before.

He could not be hallucinating, could he?

“Never mind, let’s not think too much about it… Brother, come with me first.”

It did not take long for him to shake his head vigorously to lose his dazed state. He staggered to his feet and walked out of the Moon Pavilion distractedly.

This time, Feng Xia gladly followed behind.

The three of them walked on the bluestone path in the mountains. As the Thousand Autumn Valley was located in Mount Canglan, the deeper they went, the thicker the clouds got in all directions. At the end of their journey, the clouds had almost filled every corner of their vision!

“Brother, please take a look.”

After walking for a long time, Liu Chuanyuan suddenly stopped. He waved his sleeve and pointed towards the direction of the deepest part of the clouds. “The greatest trump card of the Thousand Autumn Valley is there.”

Feng Xia focused on where he was pointing and finally saw a vague outline.

A huge shadow lay in the deepest part of the valley, as if it was also a mountain, emitting waves of pressure!

“What is that thing?” Feng Xia could not help asking.

“That’s the Thousand Autumn Bell.”

Even though he had seen it countless times, Liu Chuanyuan was still overwhelmed with emotions at this moment. “That was something that was made and refined by the first Sect Master of the Thousand Autumn Valley. It was a treasure that defeated everything else in the world. After the first Sect Master passed away, it became the sect’s ultimate treasure.”

“Legend has it that when the Thousand Autumn Valley faces its most critical moment, the Thousand Autumn Bell will revive and kill all the enemies of the Thousand Autumn Valley!”
