Chapter 137 The Powerlessness of Fate
The Southern Spirit Sect is located in a continuous mountain range, and the entire mountain range is the sect's territory.
Looking into the distance, the clouds and mist rise and fall, the mountains overlap, and cranes fly everywhere, like a fairyland on earth.
Lan Yue and the other little ones sat on the back of the large crane, curiously watching everything below.
Previously, they had always traveled by spirit boat, but this was the first time they had left the sect on a spirit crane, and everything felt very new.
After all, the sect's spirit boats are enormous, blotting out the sky, and most of them stay inside their rooms, rarely looking out.
Riding a spirit crane is quite an experience, no wonder there are so many disciples of the Southern Spirit Sect riding spirit cranes to complete missions in the mountains.
"Speaking of the Azure Stone Sect, it's not far, it's near the Southern Spirit Sect. We'll arrive soon. Once you get to that sect, you must not wander around, you must follow Elder Duanmu's lead."
The Sixth Elder gave them countless warnings, fearing that the children might be possessed by demons if they weren't careful.
They haven't found a way to remove the parasitic infection, so the disciples and elders of the Qing Shi Sect who have been infected are unable to recover.
Nobody knows what will happen to those people in the future.
"Sixth Elder, we will definitely follow Elder Duanmu closely, so you can go back with peace of mind."
Lan Yue nodded repeatedly; she couldn't wait to check the situation.
In any case, we must find out the truth about the Qing Shi Sect. Since she knows the consequences, she will definitely not allow this sect to wreak havoc on the cultivation world again!
The Sixth Elder smiled as he looked at the eager expressions on the faces of the little ones.
"Who said I was leaving? Of course I'm going to the Qing Shi Sect with you. With such a big incident, the Nan Ling Sect will naturally send more people there to investigate."
Lan Yue was taken aback. She remembered that the Sixth Elder usually stayed in the sect to handle affairs. Why was he out this time?
Perhaps the Southern Spirit Sect really did discover something from the Azure Stone Sect.
Lan Yue seemed to be deep in thought, and she clenched her little fists even tighter.
This time, we must thwart the demons' conspiracy and show these guys the power of the cultivation world!
The crane flapped its wings and flew forward, amidst the swirling clouds and mist of the mountains, where the faint calls of other cranes could be heard.
They flew further and further away, finally crossing the mountains and stopping beside a few small hills.
"Is this where we're staying?" Lan Yue asked, looking at the small hills with some confusion.
"We've already arrived, what's the point of stopping here?" Elder Duanmu raised an eyebrow.
A group of little ones: "???"
Could those small hills be the Qing Shi Sect? Is this sect really that pitiful?
"Don't assume that all sects are like the Southern Spirit Sect. Our Southern Spirit Sect's elders and Golden Core stage disciples can choose any mountain peak they like. Some Nascent Soul stage elders can also set up their own peaks and recruit disciples."
"But the sects outside have very small territories. The Qing Shi Sect is already considered quite good," the Sixth Elder said with a smile.
"I see." Lan Yue's heart was far from calm.
This small sect almost ruined the entire cultivation world's geniuses?
It seems the situation here is very troublesome; perhaps the demons have planted quite a few people here.
She remembered that in the early stages of the story, the original work did not describe the Qing Shi Sect in much detail.
So when the Qing Shi Sect suddenly appeared and became a dark horse in the later stages, everyone was surprised and felt that this sect had suddenly emerged.
"The entire Qing Shi Sect is sealed off by an array. Let's stay outside for now and investigate later." Several elders flew down from the spirit cranes and came to the makeshift bamboo hut.
A row of bamboo houses has been erected nearby, all made of special magical artifacts.
Lan Yue and her two friends lived together, while the others lived in separate rooms.
After going outside, she saw a familiar figure holding a green oil-paper umbrella.
Lan Yue's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly ran over.
"Xiao Lanyue is here too." Qingzhu smiled and reached out to pinch the little girl's chubby cheeks.
"Senior Sister Qingzhu, this place is extremely dangerous. You must be careful of those demons." Lanyue said with a worried expression.
In the original story, Senior Sister Qingzhu was killed by the Qing Shi Sect elder who was being parasitized.
Now the Demon Clan's plot in the Azure Stone Sect has been discovered ahead of time, and unexpectedly, Qingzhu is also here.
She has to keep a close eye on her and protect her senior's safety.
Several figures approached from a distance. Without thinking, Lan Yue went straight to her senior sister, arms outstretched, and stared warily in that direction.
Lan Yue was taken aback when she saw who it was.
"Little Lanyue, you don't even recognize your senior brother anymore? This really breaks my heart." Jiang Li said with a pained expression.
Could it be that he's been in the Spirit Sword Pavilion for so long that he's already forgotten?
"Where's Yinxue? Did it come along too?" The other person who spoke up was Xingyue.
She was the one who guarded the blood pool back then.
The white cat peeked its round head out from Lan Yue's clothes to see who was calling it.
Xingyue smiled when she saw the little guy.
This time her smile was much more natural, and she looked more like a living, breathing person than when she was at the Spirit Sword Pavilion.
Under normal circumstances, Lan Yue would have already taken Yin Xue over to greet her senior brothers and sisters.
However, looking at the people in front of her now, Lan Yue's expression became even more somber.
She always felt a sense of powerlessness and fatalism.
However, she quickly realized something and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Since I've transmigrated into a fan fiction world instead of the original story, the fates of my senior brothers and sisters must be different.
The plot has already fallen apart like this, it can definitely be changed!
After all this gossip, she should finally rise to prominence!
So Lan Yue immediately searched her mind to see if there were any new developments from the Qing Shi Sect.
