Chapter 111 - Why Did You Change Yourself to Look Like Youniang?

“I’m finally back.”

Feng Xia looked up at the sky and sighed.

He had gone to the ancient street with Zhu Youniang this time to lead the exploration in advance and find out what kind of secrets were hidden on that long street.

If the place turned out to be too dangerous, he would abandon it despite his reluctance, or even relocate the Thousand Autumn Valley. He would wait until he became much stronger in the future before returning to that ancient street to continue the exploration.

As Feng Xia looked back now, he felt it was fortunate that although there were indeed many… mysteries on the ancient street, and even secrets from ancient times, he could at least confirm that there was no fatal threat.

The butcher knife could kill both pigs as well as humans. Fortunately, it had already been subdued by Feng Xia.

The thing was that he needed to work together with Zhu Youniang to completely fill up the butcher knife with energy before he could barely activate a trace of power from it. By now, it was basically impossible for the vicious aura to have the same type of power to crush someone to death like it used to.

“That ancient street is indeed a good place. Just that private school alone is already a priceless treasure. No wonder the first Sect Master retained it as the ultimate inheritance of the Thousand Autumn Valley.”

Perhaps the only problem was that no matter how much foresight the first Sect Master had, he probably did not expect that for 700 years, despite the huge size of the Thousand Autumn Bell, the juniors of the Thousand Autumn Valley never once checked on it at all…

It was such a huge bell!

Even a fool would want to take a look and touch it, right?

However… it did not happen.

The later generations of disciples of the Thousand Autumn Valley not only did not do any investigation, they even marked out a protected area so that people could only look at it from afar and not be able to play with it. At most, they would brag to everyone—look at how awesome the first Sect Master Master was!

“But at least it’s not too late.”

Feng Xia shook his head slightly as a smile appeared on his face.

Halfway back to the Thousand Autumn Valley, he had already came up with a rough plan for the use of this ancient street—

First of all, the parts that had not been explored were naturally marked as forbidden areas for the time being. The first section of the street, especially the private school and clothing store, featured as the most important part of Feng Xia’s plan!

“Now that the Thousand Autumn Valley’s greatest threat is no longer around, it’s the best time to develop and grow. The private school can completely be integrated with the sect’s library and be turned into a specialized school building where all subjects can be taught without discrimination… Hmm, let’s give it a name that would fit in a fantasy novel. How about an academy?”

“As for the name of the academy, if everything goes well, we can use the name of the Heavenly Pattern Divine Kingdom and call it the Heavenly Pattern Academy. No matter what, it’s better than calling it the Thousand Autumn Academy.”

“And then there’s the lady boss’s clothing store. We already have the name Heavenly Pattern Academy. Why don’t we change it to Heavenly Robe Pavilion? It has a nice ring to it since heavenly robes are supposed to be seamless…”

Suddenly, Feng Xia raised his head and looked into the distance, a trace of seriousness showing on his face.

“What a powerful aura! Is someone refining treasures in the Thousand Autumn Valley?”

Swoosh—

Feng Xia held Zhu Youniang’s hand as they quickly appeared in front of the smithy door.

He fully released his perception and carefully scanned the land around him. After a while, Feng Xia’s expression suddenly changed drastically. “Oh no! Why isn’t the person in charge here? The treasure that he’s refining is about to go out of control!”

There was no difference between this current situation and a situation where a teammate suddenly went off to coax his girlfriend when everyone was in the middle of a team meeting?!

Not only that, the flames and the metal spiritual energy, which the creator triggered when refining the treasure, had completely turned into a pot of boiling porridge after the creator disappeared!

Rumble—

More than ten flames mixed with golden energy erupted, like a golden dragon fighting a fire dragon. With a loud bang, the smithy that was built of solid stone suddenly exploded.

In the ruins of the collapsed smithy, a sword embryo was humming non-stop, one high note after one low note, emitting a disturbing aura like a bomb that could explode at any moment!

“So, I only left for a day. What exactly happened in the sect?”

“Someone came to the Thousand Autumn Valley to refine a time bomb?”

Seeing that the flames were surging in all directions as they intertwined with the golden energy, and with the sword embryo in the center trembling at an increasingly shocking frequency, Feng Xia did not stop to think. He mobilized his cultivation and rushed forward, raising his hand to grab the sword embryo that was about to fall apart.

“Youniang… help me!”

“Sure!”

Crackle—

In the blink of an eye.

It was also at this moment that the vibration of the sword embryo finally reached its limit. The incomplete sword body cracked inch by inch, and countless metal fragments shot out!

Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!

The huge smithy was completely shattered. Even a layer of the ground below was peeled off. For a moment, soil and rocks flew everywhere as metal and fire intertwined, almost completely engulfing this area.

After an unknown period of time, the tremors and rumbling gradually subsided.

Feng Xia felt as if his entire body had been stabbed hundreds of times. Almost every part of his body was in pain, and a strong stench of blood kept entering his nose.

“Who is this person refining the treasure? Are they trying to destroy the Thousand Autumn Valley? Youniang! Youniang, are you still here? If you are, please help me up. I think I’ve been buried in the soil…”

“Xia, I think I’m pinned down by you and can’t move…”

Immediately after, Feng Xia heard the girl’s weak voice coming from under him.

Feng Xia could not help but feel helpless.

If not for his injuries, the current situation of him being unable to extricate himself would never happen. However, the explosion just now had actually caused him shocking injuries despite the kind of physical strength he had!

For a while, he could only keep his head on the ground and let the blood keep flowing out from his body.

Fortunately, not long after, Feng Xia suddenly felt a slender hand grab his leg from behind and pull him up forcefully.

At the same time, he heard a voice full of resentment complaining away.

“Why isn’t that bastard Feng Xia back yet? This strange envoy is causing trouble again! I’m about to go crazy… Eh, Feng Xia, when did you come back?”

“Youniang? No…”

Looking at the black-haired girl in front of him, Feng Xia blurted out a few words immediately. Then, he came to his senses. “Yan Wuyou? Why did you change yourself to look like Youniang?”

Yan Wuyou: “…Wait! Let me explain first!”

At this moment, Zhu Youniang also crawled out from under Feng Xia. She stared at “Zhu Youniang” without moving, expressing her curiosity with her silent actions.

“Envoy Bai…”

There was a rumble.

Lei Shao rushed over like a streak of sword light, but immediately after, this elder of the Thousand Autumn Valley fell into a daze. “Sect Master, what are you doing… No, why are there two Sect Master’s wives?!”

…
