Chapter 189 – Four Myths

Before Xiao Yun and I left Tian Shi Yuan, we went to Gui Shi and said goodbye to his stall mate. There was no trace of Master's spirit there. "Hua Hu said.

Master Lingyue's face changed slightly as he paced back and forth. "With Senior Brother's cultivation level before his death, it is impossible for his spirit to dissipate. His abilities were rare in the world..."

Hua Hu was puzzled. Was Wild Fox Master really that strong?

If what Master Lingyue said was true, then how could Wild Fox Master have turned into a demon fox?

Powerful beings often become ghosts or gods after death. For example, Eastern Master and Emperor Wen Chang. Only those with weaker abilities would attach themselves to beasts and become monsters.

In the Tian Xiang realm, the spirits of the deceased become ghosts, while in the Zheng Sheng realm, they become gods.

In the Li Yuan realm, they can only possess plants and objects as spirits, attach themselves to birds and beasts as demons, and cannot become ghosts or gods.

If Wild Fox Master was really strong, his spirit could retain some of his previous wisdom and become a ghost or god.

However, there was really no trace of Wild Fox Master's spirit in Gui Shi. This was probably because his spirit was too weak to be preserved.

But according to Master Lingyue, Wild Fox Master was not weak.

"Sir, who are you and Wild Fox Master?" Hua Hu asked, looking at the Ling family spiritualist who was flying towards them.

"I've been following Master for so long, but I've never asked about his background. When Master taught at the Wen Chang Academy, everyone poured sewage on him and accused him of wrongdoing. But in the past few months, I've found that although Master is lewd and despicable, he is still a good person."

Hua Hu turned to look at Master Lingyue and said, "Your knowledge is extremely high. Although your knowledge in Confucianism is different from that of Wild Fox Master, it is still integrated. This is the most surprising thing to me. If you and Wild Fox Master had the same teacher, then why is there such a big difference in your knowledge?"

"We may have had the same teacher. You may have seen him. There is a crooked-necked willow tree outside the Tian Men Town with a person hanging from it. He is our teacher," said Master Lingyue.

"Cen Bo?" Hua Hu was stunned.

Cen Bo was the one who took care of Su Yun and lived in the tomb under the crooked-necked tree. He saved Su Yun when he was buried in a small coffin and warned Qu Bo and Qu Jin to take care of Su Yun in the Tian Shi Yuan no man's land.

Cen Bo also told Su Yun about the time scale and touched the big clock in Tian Men Town, which eventually led to Su Yun's spiritual abilities.

Cen Bo also instructed Su Yun to set up a stall in the Tian Men Ghost Market every month, where he met his stall mates such as Lou Ban, Li Lu Hai, Eastern Master, and Emperor Wen Chang!

And Wild Fox Master and Master Lingyue were also Cen Bo's disciples.

Hua Hu suddenly thought, could Wild Fox Master's teachings to Su Yun also be related to Cen Bo?

Although he had sorted out the relationships between these people, he still felt that there was something wrong.

"However, although Wild Fox Senior Brother and I learned the same things, our understanding is different. Our teacher was a Confucian and Taoist saint, one of the four great myths of Yuan Shuo. I came to Shuo Fang to investigate his cause of death. I don't believe he committed suicide." Master Lingyue said as he looked up at the sky.Master Lingyue's smile disappeared, and he became serious, looking directly at the spiritualists of the Wen family. Suddenly, he said, "Hua Hu, do you still want to seek revenge for Wen Lifang?"



"Of course!"

Hua Hu put aside his other thoughts and said coldly, "Although I don't know where Mr. Ye Hu's spirit is, the women, children, and elderly of my Huqiu Village all died at her hands! I must avenge them!"

Master Lingyue smiled and said loudly, "I have long heard of the great name of Wen Pushe, so I came all the way to Shuofang to get close to him. Unfortunately, Pushe rejected me. Can I have the honor of meeting him today?"

Hua Hu was surprised. "Teacher, Wen Pushe has lost a leg. Do you still want to meet with her?"

Crack!

A bolt of lightning struck Hua Hu's head, leaving him charred and smoking, unable to speak anymore.

Wen Lifang, leaning on a crutch, looked up and sneered, "So it's the wandering scholar Lingyue. Even if I have lost a leg, I am not someone like you who can be bullied!"

The spiritualists of the Wen family attacked suddenly, and thunderclouds filled the sky, lightning striking down and throwing everyone into chaos.

Hua Hu and Lingyue were bathed in lightning, and they rushed towards Wen Lifang!

After a while, Wen Lifang fell in the thunderclouds.

Hua Hu grabbed Wen Lifang and asked fiercely, "Wen Pushe, did you kill Mr. Ye Hu? The old fox who spoke to you with reason, his strength was strong, you must have killed him, right?"

Wen Lifang's injuries were too severe, and her gaze was unfocused as she spoke haltingly, "What Ye Hu? You are a scholar of the Wen Chang Academy, give me a good death, don't let Lingyue desecrate my body..."

Hua Hu angrily said, "I'm asking if you killed Mr. Ye Hu! The old fox who spoke to you with reason, his strength was strong, you must have killed him, right?"

Wen Lifang's soul was on the verge of leaving her body. She said weakly, "That day... Tong Qingyun ordered me to investigate the Zanglong Tomb in Tian Shi Yuan, to see if there were human demons and dragon spirits sealed inside. I used the excuse of going out to practice and brought many scholars to Tian Shi Yuan, where we encountered the Ghost Market..."

Her memories were fragmented, and many scenes appeared in her soul, projecting onto Hua Hu and Master Lingyue.

Those were the scenes Tong Qingyun ordered her to investigate, as well as the scenes of the Ghost Market. Hua Hu even saw Su Yun in a corner of the scenes.The scene in the picture quickly passed by and soon arrived at the Zanglong Tomb under the night.

Hua Hu saw the dancing dragon spirits and the magic aura permeating from the dragon bones.

This memory was very clear, obviously Wen Lifang had a deep impression of the demons and dragon spirits.

But soon after, her memory became much dimmer and had many gaps.

In Wen Lifang's opinion, this memory was not worth keeping.

The scene of slaughtering the Huqiu Village flashed by, and Hua Hu hurriedly said, "Stop!"

Wen Lifang's spiritual energy paused, and her memory slowly flowed back and stopped at the scene of slaughtering the Huqiu Village.

Hua Hu stared at the situation in the picture. He saw that most of the scenes of the Huqiu Village being slaughtered in his memory could overlap with the scenes in the picture, but there were still some differences.

He saw the aristocratic children killing the people of Huqiu Village, and the fox demons crying and fleeing. He also saw himself rushing into the mountains with a few little foxes and saw their houses being destroyed and set on fire by divine flames.

But in his impression, Mr. Ye Hu had made a move and fought against everyone, giving them a chance to escape.

However, in Wen Lifang's spiritual memory, there was no such scene.

In Wen Lifang's memory, there was no Mr. Ye Hu.

Hua Hu was stunned, and Master Lingyue said, "Memories are easily lost. Maybe Wen Lifang just didn't have an impression of it. People often tamper with their own memories, and even deceive themselves."

He withdrew his magic power, and Wen Lifang's spiritual energy went far away.

Hua Hu suddenly said, "Master, what if someone has tampered with my or Wen Lifang's memories?"

Master Lingyue laughed and said, "It's easy to tamper with your memories, but it's too difficult to tamper with Wen Lifang's memories. Who can do it? Anyway, I can't. Let's go. It's time to go back to Shuofang!"

Shuofang City stabilized, and the chaos caused by the rebellion of the Jiehui monsters and the seven major families was quickly quelled. Most of the scholars who rebelled against the seven major families were captured and brought to justice, and the Shuofang Marquis, Ye family master, and others returned to their respective positions.

News of the frontline battles kept coming. First, the border was broken by the Hun-Turk Khan, and the frontier army marched straight into Tianshi Yuan, making Shuofang City extremely nervous.

Later, there was good news. Saint Xue led the border army to fight against the Hun-Turk Khan in Tianshi Yuan and won, forcing the Hun-Turk Khan to retreat and reclaim more and more lost land.

More than ten days later, good news came again. Saint Xue drove the Hun-Turk Khan out of Tianshi Yuan and killed his way to the border city.

Saint Xue was a genius at warfare, and he captured the border city at night, killing the Hun-Turk Khan and his remaining troops as they fled all the way back to Yangcheng.

This battle stirred the hearts of everyone in Shuobei. When the news of Saint Xue's victory came, people were inexplicably excited and ran to the streets to spread the news.

However, just at this time, news came that Saint Xue was attacked by a masked person on his way back to Shuofang and his life was in danger.

This news caused a commotion in the 108 counties of Shuobei, and countless people inquired about Saint Xue's safety.

In the afternoon, news came again that Saint Xue was not dead, but seriously injured. The king of the uninhabited area was convinced by Saint Xue and invited a doctor surnamed Dong to treat him.

When Saint Xue's injuries were healed, he would return to Shuofang.

"Did this old fox really get seriously injured and attacked?" Zuo Songyan widened his eyes and walked around, scratching his head when he heard this news."Even if he wants to play a game and boost his reputation, he wouldn't want to suffer heavy injuries."

Qiu Shuijing also frowned and pondered, "The Saint may be pretending to be injured to gather public support. Now, all the people in the northern region are talking about him, Xue Qingfu! People are first concerned about the war, discussing it endlessly. When the war ends, they will then focus on his injuries, discussing it endlessly." n0velusb.C0m

Qiu Shuijing stopped and his eyes flickered. "When the Emperor's decree comes down, ordering him to go to the Eastern Capital, people will discuss his trip to the Eastern Capital again! This is creating a sensation, building up his reputation to the limit! He is skilled at manipulating people's hearts!"

He analyzed it logically and made sense, making Zuo Songyan nod repeatedly.

At sunset, Niu Biao, Zhou Bo, and others led the army to escort Xue Qingfu back to Shuofang. Su Yun followed Qiu Shuijing and Zuo Songyan to visit the Saint's residence, only to see Dong Yishi taking care of him on the side.

Xue Qingfu lay on the sickbed with serious injuries, which surprised Qiu Shuijing.

"I encountered the Dao Saint from the Four Great Myths, and he said he was ordered by the Emperor to eliminate me."

After receiving treatment from Dong Yishi, Xue Qingfu's complexion improved a lot and he said to Qiu Shuijing, "But I'm not inferior. The Dao Saint's injuries are not much better than mine."

Qiu Shuijing's eyes flickered. "Teacher, if I make a move now, do you have any hope of survival?"

Xue Qingfu shook his head and smiled. "I am severely injured now. Even if the God King and Demon King are hiding behind me, I cannot withstand your thunderous strike."

Qiu Shuijing fell silent.

Xue Qingfu said, "But if I die, what will you use to suppress Di Ping? The triangle is the most stable."

Qiu Shuijing stood up and drifted away. "Teacher, my power in the Eastern Capital is weaker than yours. I will leave first and wait for you in the Eastern Capital."
