Chapter 474 The Three-Tailed Fox and the Black Mountain Ghost
Although Marquis Wansheng was powerful, Leng Yun didn't have a good impression of him. Just like Xiao Li said before, Leng Yun also disliked this person.
After Wan Shenghou had walked away, Xiao Li and the woman in white slowly came out.
"Who exactly are you?" Leng Yun asked, knowing full well that this woman in white must be a ghost.
"Thank you both for saving my life. I am a three-tailed fox demon, but I live in this Youhuan City and have never harmed anyone," the woman in white said.
She lowered her head slightly, and every movement seemed to have stepped out of an ancient painting of a virtuous lady, her words carrying a sense of sorrow.
Little Tanuki asked curiously, "Are there many monsters living in this Youhuan City?"
The three-tailed fox was not angry. Instead, she nodded gently and said, "Yes, it is very dangerous in here, especially the Wushan Ghost, which has just been born these past few days. I suggest you leave quickly."
"Who is Wushan Ghost?" Leng Yun asked, taking out a bottle of pills and gently sprinkling them on the three-tailed fox's arm.
The bleeding from her fair arm stopped immediately.
"Thank you, benefactor," the three-tailed fox said politely.
Then she continued, "This Wushan Ghost is the most powerful one in the entire Youhuan City. He can basically command the entire Youhuan City. However, he is a mortal enemy of our Fox Clan. If he discovers me, he will definitely kill me."
"Normally, Wushan Ghost hides in seclusion in the underworld, but recently a rare treasure appeared in Youhuan City, so Wushan Ghost has reappeared in the world after a hundred years, with the aim of obtaining this treasure."
Leng Yun sighed. After a hundred years, it seems that these monsters have a much longer lifespan than humans.
"How many years have you lived?" Thinking of this, Leng Yun asked curiously.
"I have lived for four hundred years and have only just cultivated three tails. It will take six hundred years to cultivate six tails, and a thousand years to cultivate nine tails and become a nine-tailed celestial fox," the three-tailed fox said leisurely, her voice still carrying a touch of melancholy.
"My goodness, a thousand years! How powerful must the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox be?!" Little Fox asked, her mouth agape.
“I don’t know either.” The three-tailed fox shook its head. “In the thousands of years of our fox clan, it seems that only one nine-tailed celestial fox has appeared. I’m not lucky enough to have met him, but I heard that he is equivalent to the human Divine Martial Realm.”
"Divine Martial Realm!" This time, even Leng Yun was somewhat surprised, but upon reflection, it made sense, given that he had been studying it for a thousand years.
This is because the fox clan's cultivation method is different from that of humans. If a human could cultivate for a thousand years, it would probably be enough to reach the Great Ascension Fist Realm.
"Actually, I don't know either. This is all what Six-Tailed Brother told me," the Three-Tailed Fox continued.
Just as Leng Yun was about to ask the Three-Tailed Fox about the treasures of Youhuan City, he suddenly sensed an extremely powerful force rushing towards him from not far away.
This power was different from that of Wan Shenghou; it appeared more sinister, but it seemed to be twice as strong.
"Oh no, it's the Wushan Ghost! We have to get out of here!" The three-tailed fox was terrified.
But it was too late. The force was extremely fast, arriving in front of everyone almost instantly.
Leng Yun could only see a dark figure standing in front of him, covered by a huge robe and cloak that concealed his entire body. His face was not visible through the gaps in the cloak; all that could be seen was darkness.
"Heh heh, so it's just a little fox and two humans. You're all going to die!" A colder voice came from the darkness.
Before he finished speaking, a dark force shot towards Leng Yun and the other two.
Even from a distance, Leng Yun could sense this incredibly powerful force.
He dared not be careless and immediately summoned a green stream of light, enveloping all three of his companions within it.
"Boom!"
The black power struck the green light, producing a muffled thud, and shattered the green light.
However, at the same time, the black power was also completely exhausted.
A soft "Huh?" came from beneath the black cloak; he hadn't expected Leng Yun to actually withstand the attack.
Even so, Leng Yun had expended a great deal of energy, and was so shaken that his vision blurred.
He knew that this was not even the full power of Wushan Ghost, yet it was already terrifying. If Wushan Ghost used its full strength, who knew how terrifying it would be!
"Has this Wushan Ghost already surpassed the Star Martial Realm?" Leng Yun thought to himself.
With just one strike, Leng Yun had already expended a great deal of his power and even unleashed the green light. If Wu Shan Gui were to attack again, even Leng Yun would likely be unable to stop him.
"Whoosh!"
Thinking of this, Leng Yun suddenly unleashed a sonic boom, accompanied by purple flames.
The sonic boom reached the vicinity of Wushan Ghost in the blink of an eye.
Although Wushan Ghost was somewhat wary of the Netherworld Ghost Fire, the difference in strength was simply too great. With a wave of his hand, Wushan Ghost created a black wall that slowly dissipated along with the Netherworld Ghost Fire.
However, taking advantage of those few seconds, Leng Yun and the other two had already begun to flee.
Just as their figures were about to disappear into the forest, Wushan Ghost had completely dissipated its purple flames.
"Trying to run!" Wu Shan Gui sneered, and with a swift movement, he was about to catch up with Leng Yun and the others.
This speed is simply terrifying.
"Come with me!" the three-tailed fox called out softly, and then a faint white light emanated from her body.
Although the light was faint, it stopped Wushan Ghost for a few seconds.
In those few seconds, Leng Yun and Xiao Li had already run quite a distance with the three-tailed fox.
Behind them, Wushan Ghost broke through the white again and was about to catch up.
Leng Yun didn't know how far he had followed the three-tailed fox. He felt the force behind him getting closer and closer, and Wushan Ghost was catching up at an extremely fast speed.
"Here!" the three-tailed fox called out in a sweet voice.
The three then followed the three-tailed fox into a cave.
"It's so hot here!" Little Tanuki said.
Leng Yun also found it strange. Even though he was a fire-attribute person with two kinds of flames protecting his body, he could still feel the high temperature here.
Having entered the cave, the three-tailed fox seemed much more at ease and let out a long breath. However, she suddenly swayed and almost fell to the ground.
Thanks to Xiao Li, she was able to catch up.
"What's wrong?" Leng Yun asked.
Before the three-tailed fox could answer, a white shadow flashed past Leng Yun with incredible speed, snatching the three-tailed fox from Xiao Li's hand.
Then Leng Yun realized what was happening, and a ball of purple flame burst forth from her hand.
"Cough cough, Three-Tails, you used your soul power?"
Leng Yun only saw a white-clad man gently holding Sanwei, murmuring something.
