The Fox Comes from Outer World - C399

Thinking about what I saw at the bottom of the river and the forest, I was so shocked that my hair almost stood on end. The stench of corpses was coming from the tower, could it be that there was something strange about this tower? Would Qing Ling encounter any danger if she went in alone? With that in mind, I unsheathed my weapon and dashed for the door.

However, just as I was about to rush to the door, the Tower of the Holy Light suddenly shook from the bottom to the top! It did shake a bit, as if there was an earthquake. The huge building actually shook a bit, creating a very scary sound. Very soon, many of the copper bells that were originally hung on the corner of the tower also shook, and a series of crisp metallic sounds immediately rang out in the air.

Standing in front of the tower, I was shocked. Was this tower going to collapse? The thought of Qing Ling still in the pagoda made my heart burn with anxiety. I shouted out his name and tugged at the knocker on the door. However, the door is tightly shut, and the entrance has a barrier that prevents the demons from escaping. I can’t even open the door from the outside!

I panicked and raised my sword to strike at the door. At this moment, the Tower of Holy Light violently trembled as if it was struck by an attack! The shaking became more obvious this time, and the bottom of the tower began to shake!

When did my strength become so great that I could shake the entire pagoda with a mere strike of the pagoda gate?

I was slightly surprised as I held my sword and was stunned on the spot. Suddenly, the door opened from the inside. Then, a black figure shot out like a bullet. It was Qing Ling!

“Ah Shi, leave quickly!”

he shouted, grabbing me with lightning speed and dashing for the river without slowing down!

His speed was so fast that before I could react, I was grabbed by him and sent flying several meters away. I was still in the same position as when the gate of the Tower of Holy Light was opened. As such, I looked at the tall building that was originally standing there, and suddenly felt as if someone had blown it open at the bottom. With an earth-shattering bang, the Tower of Holy Light suddenly tilted to the right!

Was the tower going to fall? Was he really going to fall? I opened my eyes wide and let out a low cry.

Everything before his eyes was inconceivable! The Holy Tower that was always viewed as a restricted area in the sect was imprisoned by countless demons that were caught by the Evergreen Sect since they were founded. It was built to be especially sturdy, and there were also many enchantments set up outside the tower by experts to prevent the demons inside it from escaping, and even more so to prevent the evil people from attacking from the outside.

However, the current Sacred Tower, under the intense vibrations, swayed left and right like a drunken man who had drank too much. For a moment, I even thought that it was going to fall over! However, in the end, the tower did not fall. Instead, it slowly sank into the ground, as if the ground had sunk in. By the time Qing Ling pulled me to a safe place to rest, the Tower of Holy Light had already sunk into the ground. From our position, it seems to have already descended below the surface of the earth, making it impossible for us to see it with our naked eyes!

“What happened? Why did the Tower of Saint collapse? ” I asked Tsui Ling.

Qing Ling’s breath quickened. It was obvious that he used quite a bit of strength to run. At the same time, I noticed that his clothes were slightly damaged. His arms and back were wounded by swords. It was as if he had been attacked by someone else.

“How did you get injured? Do you need to be worried about that?! ” I riffled through his clothes.

Qing Ling patted the back of my hand and comforted me, “It’s alright. It’s just some superficial wounds. I just cut my clothes.”

I asked in surprise, “Who can hurt you? Could it be that the demons in the Holy Tower broke through the barrier? ”

Qingling shook his head. “No, we weren’t hurt by the fiendish demons. I was injured by Senior Apprentice Nephew Ruan and the rest. ”

Martial Nephew Ruan? Could it be that he’s talking about my senior brother Ruan Zhushu?!

I was surprised and immediately asked: “Senior Brother Yuan Zhu Jing is in the Holy Tower? Is he on duty? Is there anyone else? Why did he hurt you? ”

Qing Ling was silent for a moment. With a troubled expression, he spoke in a low voice, “Martial Nephew Ruan is indeed within the Sacred Pagoda. There is also Hong Ying who is with him. There were only the two of them in the pagoda. The rest of the demons had already disappeared. In the beginning, they treated me as an intruder, so they faced off against me using swords. However, they all recognized me later on and told me about what happened in the Sacred Pagoda. ”

After Qing Ling said this, he paused for a moment before replying, “Ah Wu, the Evergreen Sect has suffered a calamity. The entire sect has been annihilated.”

The entire sect was wiped out? A thump went through my head, and I didn’t get it for a long time.

Qing Ling continued to explain to me. It turned out that after he entered the Tower of Saints, he noticed that there was something strange inside. First of all, the suspended bottle that had been used to suppress and purge the demons was gone. Then he noticed that the countless barriers that had been used to imprison the demons had also disappeared. Qing Ling was extremely surprised in his heart. He was about to ignite the fire piston to see what was going on, but at this moment, a sword wind suddenly blew out from behind him. A sneak attack had been launched!

Qing Ling’s reaction was fast, he immediately took out his treasured sword to counter it, and golden sparks burst out from the two swords. At this time, he took advantage of this slight glimmer of light to clearly see the face of the assailant, it was actually his martial nephew, Ruan Zhushu, whom he hadn’t seen for hundreds of years!

Shocked, he immediately made a feint, called “Martial Nephew Nguyen” and retreated to the side of the pagoda. At this time, the treasured sword in Nuan Zhu Jing’s hand paused. At this moment, another wave of cold wind came from Qing Ling’s side! As a cultivator, Qing Ling immediately felt the enemy’s ferocious momentum. Moreover, that person’s magic was very evil. It should be a sneak attack from a disciple of the same sect. There was a high chance that he was an evil demon! This time, Qing Ling did not show mercy. Instead, she used her sword techniques to counter the attack. After a few moves, Qing Ling’s opponent was suppressed by the sword.

At this time, Ruan Zhu Jing, who had been standing quietly in the darkness, suddenly shouted, “Martial Uncle Ling, please show mercy!”

Ruan Zhujing’s sudden action surprised Qing Ling. At this moment, his opponent’s expression was extremely urgent and his movements were extremely quick. He directly charged towards Qing Ling’s sword, as if he didn’t care about his life!

Qing Ling thought to himself, “Who could make Yuan Zhu Jing so desperate to protect him?”

However, just as Qing Ling was filled with doubt, the demon that had been subdued suddenly struggled. He suddenly pounced towards Qing Ling, his formidable palm technique leaving no face! Qing Ling dodged and remembered what Yuan Zhujing said just now. In his heart, this evil demon was definitely an important person to him, so he did not dare to kill that evil demon. As a result, Qing Ling was caught a few times, his clothes were torn, and he suffered some light injuries.

Escaping the demons’ attacks, Qing Ling retreated to the second floor. The place where he had been standing had now turned into a new “battlefield.” Ruan Zhu Jing was fighting with the demon. It seemed that Ruan Zhu Jing was trying his best to control the demon, but didn’t want to hurt it. Therefore, this fight had taken a bit of effort.
