Chapter 266 If you don’t enter the tiger’s den, how can you catch the tiger’s cubs?
Compared to Lu Hanbai, Tan Youqi's attitude was obviously better and his words were more pleasant to the ear.
Senior Brother Changxue said quickly: "Then I'll have to trouble Senior Brother Tan to lead the way."
A group of people went downstairs. Tan Youqi took out the flying boat. After everyone was on board, he commanded the boat to fly.
Because of the Shuiyun Sect's succession ceremony, the number of cultivators traveling around Tianbei County was more than ten times more than usual.
In order to avoid congestion, Tianbei County temporarily opened the air ban, allowing people to fly in flying boats and swords over Tianbei County.
As a result, the number of monks flying over Tianbei County is much greater than in previous years.
Looking down from a high place, the entire Tianbei County is a prosperous scene.
"I remember when I said goodbye to Senior Brother Tan, Senior Brother Tian was hunting down 'Xing Bufan'. I wonder what happened to Xing Bufan now?"
Tian Lin was deeply impressed by Zhou Shoufan, and the two could be considered "half" fellow villagers.
It stands to reason that the two will not have any intersection again, but it is difficult for Tian Lin and Zhou Shoufan to turn enemies into friends. Only when the other party dies can Tian Lin feel at ease.
"This guy escaped that day and has not been seen since."
Tan Youqi frowned slightly and said, "I guess this guy is planning to break through to the Nascent Soul stage."
Nascent Soul stage?
Everyone looked at Tan Youqi. They didn't know who Xing Bufan was, but when they heard that he was going to reach the Nascent Soul stage, they couldn't help but pay attention.
"Xing Bufan occupied the body of the Tong family's ancestor. How could he take control of the Tong family's ancestor's body so quickly?"
"So Xing Bufan can be considered a natural talent. Plus, Senior Sister Tong is already in the late Jindan stage, and her foundation is very good. After he took over her, she has the potential to soar to the sky."
During the conversation, the flying boat passed through a cloud of mist, and a huge statue instantly attracted everyone's attention.
The statue stands tall and reaches the sky.
She was a woman wearing a long skirt with a stone fish basket hanging on her arm.
The statue of a woman is standing in a large lake, and seems to be trying to pick something.
Everyone knew that this woman was the ancestor of Shuiyun Sect.
The flying boat passed under the woman's huge palm. Tan Youqi controlled the flying boat and flew everyone towards the center of the lake.
When everyone looked down, they saw countless duckweeds, lotus leaves and lotus flowers on the lake as vast as the sea.
There are countless buildings and palaces on these duckweed or lotus leaves.
In countless buildings and palaces, there are countless ant-sized people coming in and out.
Tan Youqi led everyone and stopped on a lotus leaf.
This lotus leaf looks small from high in the air, but once it falls to the ground, you can feel its thickness and breadth.
"This is a guest house of my sect. My fellow disciples, please follow me and take a rest first."
While Tan Youqi was speaking, he put away the flying boat and led the way.
Soon, from the palace in the distance, a cultivator in the foundation-building stage turned into a beam of light and flew over.
The foundation-building cultivator greeted Tan Youqi and said, "Qiu Wuwei greets Senior Brother Tan."
When Tan Youqi faced the outer disciples of his sect, he regained his noble temperament and said directly, "There are some brothers from the Dao Sect here. Please arrange accommodation for them first and then prepare food."
The outer sect disciple quickly bowed to Tian Lin and the others, and then said, "Brothers, please follow me."
Everyone returned the greeting and then followed Qiu Wuwei towards the numerous palaces.
The Zhikeyuan is built on lotus leaves, with many artificial mountains and real water in between.
At this time, the Zhikeyuan seemed particularly lively. A group of people entered the so-called Penglai Hall and were settled in the West Garden of the Penglai Hall.
It was impossible for Tan Youqi to entertain only Tian Lin and the others. He just chatted with Tian Lin and the others for a few minutes and then said goodbye and left.
As soon as Tan Youqi left, several fellow disciples continued the topic of Xing Bufan and had a deep conversation.
Ju Yunhai asked Tian Lin, "If I remember correctly, Xing Bufan was a man, but Tong Yao was a woman, right? Why did Xing Bufan want to borrow the body of Elder Tong to revive?"
Tian Lin said: "Xing Bufan probably doesn't think highly of ordinary Jindan cultivators. But a Jindan cultivator in the late stage, and one built by the five elements, is definitely not that easy to revive.
Xing Bufan was able to borrow Tong Yao's corpse because of a great deal of effort and fate. For the sake of his own cultivation, he no longer cared whether the other party was a man or a woman. "
In fact, Tian Lin knew Zhou Shoufan better than Shuiyun Zong and knew that Zhou Shoufan was in the late Jindan stage in his early years.
Being in the same late Jindan stage, it wouldn’t be too difficult for him to take over Tong Yao’s body.
The Tong family is his family's enemy, so Xing Bufan has sufficient motives to attack Tong Yao.
As for whether it is a boy or a girl, Xing Bufan doesn’t care.
As they chatted, a female disciple who was exploring the West Garden suddenly said, "Brothers, it seems that the people living in the South Garden are from the Goddess Sect."
Goddess Sect?
Several people immediately thought of Mei Xiangu.
Sure enough, the voice of Mei Xiangu was heard from Nanyuan, and she seemed to be arguing with someone.
The few people hated and feared Mei Xiangu, and all walked to the wall of South Garden.
But as they approached, someone inside the wall said, "If you want to eavesdrop, just come to the courtyard and listen openly. Why do you have to be sneaky and act like a mean person?"
Senior Brother Changxue and the others looked at each other, snorted coldly, and jumped over the wall.
I saw the rather large South Garden, which was packed with a lot of people and animals.
Tian Lin and others saw that in Nanyuan there were not only disciples of the Goddess Sect, but also a group of men covered in tattoos.
These men had birds and beasts beside them or on their shoulders.
Judging from their attire, most of them were wearing waistcoats or shorts, looking uncivilized.
Senior Brother Changxue was well-informed. He bowed to one of the men and said, "So you are a fellow Taoist from the Beast Taming Sect."
The sturdy man with his chest exposed returned the greeting and said with a smile, "So you are my neighbor from the Taoist sect!"
The Beast Taming Sect is also in the Northern Wilds, and even deeper into the Northern Wilds.
They live in the mountains, living with monsters and beasts all day long, and rarely go out.
Because of this, disciples of the Asking Dao Sect rarely see disciples of the Beast Taming Sect.
Tian Lin was a newly-initiated disciple, and no Beast Taming Sect disciple had ever seen one before.
"I was in the courtyard just now and heard some noise in the South Garden. I was curious and tried to find out. I had no intention of eavesdropping on the conversation between the brothers."
The sturdy man laughed and said, "That's nothing. We in the Beast Taming Sect are upright and honest, so we are not afraid of anyone eavesdropping."
As soon as he said this, Mei Xiangu said coldly, "Are you upright? I think you, the people of the Beast Taming Sect, have been associating with monsters all day long and have long lost your humanity. How can you say you are upright?"
The sturdy man frowned and said, "Mei, what do you mean by that?"
Mei Xiangu said, "I heard that there is a man named Fu Tianchou in your sect who gave birth to a hybrid with a tiger demon. Not only did your sect not expel him from the sect, but it also made him an elder in the sect. Is this true?"
As soon as Mei Xiangu finished speaking, a voice said, "As the saying goes, you can't get a tiger cub without risking it. I'm just following the saying, so what's wrong with that?"
