Chapter 558.

What kind of choice this fat man from the Green Clan would make in the end, Jiang Ran wasn’t sure and didn’t care.

As of now, everything that was known about the Flute Clan and among the Hundred Clans was already enough to paint a somewhat tattered picture.

Taking the initial portrayal from Tian Youfang, Qi Lan and the others as a starting point.

The old patriarch of the Flute Clan had always wanted to utilize compulsion to become immortal.

To this end, he had not hesitated to kill the closest descendants around him.

The girl named Ah Zhu who died at that time was neither the first nor presumably the last.

This matter was framed by the old matriarch to Tian Youfang.

Tian Youfang had insight into the conspiracy, but knew that he was powerless to resist, so he could only choose to flee.

He stole the Compassion King, escaped from the Flute Clan, escaped from the Hundred Thousand Mountains, and traveled the world in anonymity as a loose jianghu man.

He also used this to force Wu Di, who was in love with Ah Zhu, to come out from the Hundred Thousand Mountains and chase Tian You Fang.

And according to Chilan, the reason why he killed Ah Zhu if he wanted to become immortal was that he needed Ah Zhu’s original life compulsion.

In addition, there are other instinctive compulsion as a guide, in order to be able to accomplish.

In this exactly need these vital parasites to achieve what fire, Jiang Ran is not clear, but obviously this is not a casual can be accomplished things.

It had its own set of complicated and secretive reasoning in it.

Not only that, the Flute Clan’s settlement of the 100,000 Mountains and the spreading of insect techniques to the Hundred Clans was also a conspiracy.

They borrowed the hands of the hundred tribes to raise insects, but did not allow them to make too many enemies.

It was because they were worried about being discovered by them in advance, and as long as they allowed their bugs to devour more than three bugs cultivated by other clans, changes would occur.

The hundreds of clans in the 100,000 great mountains were each in their own habitat, rarely migrating.

There was also the Flute Clan to supervise them and prevent them from having more disputes.

So much so that for so many years, they surprisingly remained ignorant of this matter.

However, according to the laws of the mountain, this is also bound to have been discovered by someone who has discovered the secret …… Just expect them to not know where the key is.

But now, using the Hundred Races Event as a guide, convening the Hundred Races’ experts to attend the meeting.

According to the description of the law in the mountain, their fight with each other can be said to be since this event invitation issued, has become a foregone conclusion.

The hundreds of tribes were bound to start a chaotic war for this reason.

For hundreds and thousands of years, the flute clan has been arranging this chess move, and it has finally come to the end of the road.

This was all the truth that lay before Jiang Ran now.

But ……

“Why now?”

After Jiang Ran returned to his room, he told the matter so and so.

With Poetry and Painting, Frightened Frost and Frightened Snow Rapunzel and the girls studied it.

The one who asked this question was Tang Painting Yi.

“According to what you said, if spreading the insect technique to the Hundred Races was the final piece of the Flute Race’s ancestors, then at this point in time, unless all the preparations have been made, then it doesn’t make sense to enable this step.”

Jiang Ran nodded slightly, but was silent.

Ye Shockfang glanced at him:

“You’re worried.”

“Worried about what?”

Ye Jingxue couldn’t help but ask.

“Worried about Tian Yufang, worried about Wu Di ……”

Tang Shixue and the Princess spoke at the same time.

Jiang Ran gently let out a breath:

“Since I left Golden Cicada until now, it’s been a long time since I’ve heard from them. The battle formation at the Heavenly Royal Pass on the northern road line is bound to be a mess no matter how the battle goes.

“If the old patriarch takes advantage of this opportunity and secretly dispatches an expert to take advantage of the fact that Wu Di and Tian Youfang and the others are not on guard and directly strike to sneak attack ……

“They will most likely find it difficult to resist.”

What was feared was not a frontal confrontation, but an unprepared sneak attack in the dark.

The crowd immediately fell silent, while Jiang Ran smiled:

“But yet, there’s no harm in anticipating that that old patriarch, with a thousand thoughts, never thought that I would come to the Hundred Thousand Mountains.

“If Wu Di and Tian Youfang really have something wrong with them, this trip to the Di Clan will give them a leg up.”

“Hmm, then there’s no time to lose, we’ll have to have Miss A Mei speed up her pace.”

Tang Shixiang spoke softly.

Jiang Ran nodded:

“After days of labor, let’s forget about these things for now, get some rest and speed up the rush tomorrow.”

The crowd nodded, no one at this juncture was horny and planning to find Jiang Ran to do something, and soon they all went to sleep.

While they slept soundly on their side, A Mei’s side was on tenterhooks.

The place that big fat man chose was just too wonderful, so much so that there was a constant stream of guests throughout the night.

So much so that throughout the night, there was no stopping in this courtyard.

All kinds of bugs sounded endlessly, and the black shadows reflected on the windows were like a swarm of demons.

A Mei did not close her eyes for the whole night, and felt that she might as well sleep soundly on the tree.

That’s why when Jiang Ran got up the next morning, he realized that both of A Mei’s eyes were black, looking as if he had let someone punch him twice.

“Someone sneaked into the girl’s room last night and beat you up?”

Jiang Ran asked with some curiosity.

A Mei’s face darkened and she muttered two sentences that only she could hear, then looked around:

“Where’s that fatty?”

“Gone.”

Jiang Ran swept a glance, there were many more corpses in the courtyard.

Dressed differently as well.

Piled up on one side, it was like a small mountain.

It’s just that there isn’t much blood in this courtyard …… Bug Technique works with bugs, and most of them are bloodthirsty.

It makes sense that there is not much blood in this courtyard.

And in addition to these corpses, it is those flower pots.

It wasn’t just Fatty who disappeared this night, but also those flowers and plants.

Perhaps frightened by what happened to Night Qiong last night, this big fat man escaped with his plants and flowers during the late night.

Therefore the one who got up in the morning to cook was still Jiang Ran ……

Originally, I thought that there would always be some among A Mei and the others who could cook.

As a result, A Mei patted her chest and said that among the Yao tribe, it was all men who did the laundry and cooking, where were the women who could cook?

Whenever this happened, Jiang Ran would realize that the Yao tribe was a female clan.

After having breakfast, Jiang Ran proposed to speed up.

A Mei nodded her head in agreement, but raised the same question:

“It doesn’t matter if we speed up, but this will inevitably expose our whereabouts, and if we are stopped, I’m afraid it will only delay the trip even more.”

“No harm done.”

Jiang Ran waved his hand:

“If someone stops me, I will step in.”

This one sentence was enough, mainly because of the words ‘I will make a move’.

A Mei’s eyes lit up:

“Then let’s go!!!”

Earlier, Ah Mei had followed the mountain laws amongst the 100,000 great mountains and remained as silent as possible.

Now that Jiang Ran was going to be fast and but whenever he encountered a problem he could step in to solve it, what was there to be concerned about?

Immediately will light power operation to the extreme, a group of people as if the wind speed in the forest through the general.

As expected, it didn’t take long before they encountered someone to stop them.

It seems to be the people of the Winged Clan, and the people they came from are scattered around.

Often do not see people, face to face a black smoke, martial arts weaker, did not wait to react to what happened, after the ghost ants have been a little bit of dregs are not left.

However, facing Jiang Ran, the dregs are not left can only be the other side.

The Indestructible Big Dipper turned, directly shocking these ghost ants to death on the spot, followed by a sweep of the cold Big Dipper, a few people of the Winged Race, who were still in the dark, had already been chopped off their legs and hands.

The only thing they did to stop Jiang Ran was to let him get the second half of the scroll of their clan’s insect art.

This also allowed Jiang Ran to completely master an insect art.

And in the time since then, the process was repeated over and over again.

So much so that by the time evening came, Jiang Ran had gotten the secret scrolls of the bug arts of the Bed, Wing, and Red clans.

After comparing them, he realized that their bug arts were all similarly different, with the core content remaining the same, and the external circumstances and cultivation methods changing.

Each of them was quite consuming …… This would really be too much of a labor of love if one were to let a person do it, or let a tribe raise a hundred insects.

In terms of this point, it had to be said that the ancestors of the Flute Clan were really smart.

Being able to think of such a method to accomplish a purpose for themselves.

The next day still with this speed forward, just the more to the flute clan’s territory, those who do not open their eyes the less.

When they had completely gone to the Flute Clan’s sphere of influence, they would no longer see the people of the other hundred clans coming over to make things difficult for them.

But by this time, Jiang Ran and the others had all changed their clothes.

They pretended to be people from the Yao tribe.

The Yao tribe was a female lineage clan, and Jiang Ran and the only two men, the Duo Demon King of the Underworld, couldn’t be in a high position.

So they were all following behind as attendants.

Not long after moving forward again, the group was stopped.

“Who is the visitor?”

“Clan Chief of the Yao Clan, bringing his clan to the Hundred Clans Event.”

“Yao Clan?”

“The Scorpion lineage, it’s outstanding, I didn’t expect it to be the first to arrive.”

Several disciples of the Flute Clan walked out from the shadows.

The one in the lead was also a young man, his gaze was slightly cold as he glanced at A Mei and the others, and suddenly smiled:

“Let me ask you guys, was it peaceful on the way here?”

“Peaceful.”

Ah Mei replied casually.

The man frowned slightly, then waved his hand:

“Come with me.

“The Hundred Clans Event is not a small matter, and it is a lifelong honor for you to be able to enter my Flute Clan.

“Remember that you must not wander around after entering, otherwise, be careful with your lives.”

A Mei nodded her head in a hurry:

“Yes, we heed it.”

As the young man’s footsteps moved forward, the landscape of the Flute Clan was reflected in the bottom of everyone’s eyes.

A huge mountain depression, the rock walls were cut straight, like a wall, against the wall was a building that snaked upwards, the staircase was a piece of wood that had been driven into the wall.

I don’t know how deep it is, but it’s extraordinary.

Around the rocky walls of the depression, the buildings were so densely packed that it was dizzying to see.

And in the middle of this mountain depression, there is a line.

It is like a line of sky, extending all the way to nowhere.

Calling for speculation, the other end of the depression, in the end, what was there.

The bottom layer is a piece of voucher land, like a square, there are many vendors selling goods there, people coming and going is very lively.

The terrain of this place is marvelous, one step out can see the whole picture here, but if it is a step back, but how can not see that there is such a large gathering place here.

In front of the head of the cold young man, leading the crowd from that square through, casually said:

“In another day, this place will be empty.

“The Hundred Races Event will be held here …… Today, we will first arrange a good room for you, so that you can have a good rest.

“Tomorrow …… will be the day of the patriarch’s ascension to immortality.

“At that time, the hundred clans will observe the ceremony and share the blessings.”

“Yes.”

A Mei nodded her head in a hurry.

That young man’s footsteps slightly lurched, turned back to look at A Mei again, and was about to say something when he suddenly heard footsteps coming.

Two Flute Clan disciples came to the front and came together to whisper two sentences in his ear.

His face instantly changed, and a flash of killing intent flooded his eyes.

It was so severe that it called for a chill in one’s heart.

But when it came to it, he took a deep breath and said to Ah Mei:

“I’ll have the others lead you to the residence, I have some things to do here, I have to leave first.”

“Good.”

Ah Mei nodded again, when it came to the boundary of the Flute Clan, naturally, she would agree to whatever people said.

Knowing the times was the way to survive.

While this young man said he would leave, the two people who had sent the message from the party extended their arms as a guide:

“Gentlemen, please.”

“With pleasure.”

Ah Mei politely said, leading the people to follow.

Jiang Ran and Tang Shixiang exchanged glances.

Among the people present, in terms of internal strength alone, other than Jiang Ran, it was Tang Shixie.

At this point, even the Demon King of the Underworld was a certain distance away from Tang Shixie.

Although the First Sorrow of the Ancients was the most miserable martial art under the heavens, the ultimate pain brought about the ultimate advancement.

There was a method in martial arts called ‘Stealing Heaven’s Chance’.

To put it in a mysterious way, in reality it is just on the edge of life and death, taking life for cultivation, borrowing the stimulation of the line of life and death, stimulating their own potential.

The First Sorrow of the Ancient World is actually similar to the Stealing of Heavenly Chance.

However, it was replacing life and death with pain, which could similarly stimulate potential and gain more.

Tang Shixiang had been practicing this mastery for more than ten years, enduring endless pain, and the abundance of her internal energy was so great that even the Demon Diverting Underworld King could only look forward to it.

It was precisely for this reason that both Jiang Ran and Tang Shixiang had heard what the two Flute Clan disciples had said to that young man just now.

“Brother Ah Zhuo, Ah Shang is going to be killed by Xiao Jiu.”

Ah Zhuo brother should be the name of this young man, and who are these two people, Ah Shang and Xiao Jiu ……?

Looking at the direction that Brother Ah Zhuo left, Jiang Ran pondered.

But at this moment, it was not the time to find out.

Patiently followed the two young people to the arranged residence.

The environment of the place was not bad, not to mention the birds and flowers, but also the cool breeze was pleasant.

After the crowd had been assigned rooms, they realized that there were people from the Flute Clan guarding the path they had to take to get out.

Jiang Ran pondered for a moment and was about to speak to Tang Shixiang.

Just then, he heard Tang Shixiang say:

“You go out, I’ll watch the house.”

Jiang Ran froze and couldn’t help but smile, reaching out to gently scratch her nose:

“Good.”

“I’ll go with you.”

Tang Yuyi then proposed softly.

Jiang Ran didn’t hesitate and nodded along.

The two of them, one of them was proficient in the Tian Ji Dou Shi Da Shifting Form Technique, and the other had the Autumn Water Condensing Ice Technique.

It was really the perfect partner for walking in enemy territory.

Thus both Frightening Frost and Frightening Snow and the Eldest Princess were completely fine with it.

The Transdimensional Demon King and they are not in the same place, even if they have opinions can not be raised, this time most of the work has already laid down to sleep.

Two people said to leave, casually pushed open the window, Jiang Ran pulled over Tang Yuyi’s hand, performs the vertical flow of light directly fly down.

He followed the direction that the previous Ah Zhuo brother had left, and after exploring forward for a while, he realized that the buildings around here were gradually decreasing.

Further ahead, there was a huge cave, and within the cave was a blazing fire, with many people guarding the periphery.

Of course, the most terrifying thing amongst the Flute Clan was never the people.

It was the parasites hidden in the shadows that were the most frightening.

Jiang Ran pulled Tang Yuyi to hide more in the corner, looking at the place with a slight frown:

“It seems to be a prison.”

“Grab two people and change their clothes, let’s blend in and take a look?”

Tang Yuyi offered her opinion.

Jiang Ran thought for a moment, first nodding, but then shaking his head:

“Not a bad idea, but I’m worried that there will be problems.

“The martial arts of the Hundred Thousand Mountains are very different from the outside world.

“Manipulating insect and compulsion arts, the direction of perception is also different from those outside.

“There are so many things they can utilize, and they are often things that are not on our minds as well.

“If we go in rashly, we might be discovered by them.”

It was with this thought that he saw two silhouettes pulling and tugging their way out of the mouth of that cave.

The one in the lead was none other than that Ah Zhuo brother.

He was tugging on a girl’s wrist, his face was filled with a grave look, the girl obviously didn’t want to go, struggling all the way to gnash her teeth:

“Brother Ah Zhuo, let go of me, let go of me!

“Did I not do the right thing? Doesn’t he deserve to die?

“Ah Zhuo sister is so good to him …… him, how can he be like this?”

Jiang Ran looked up brightly after hearing just that one sentence.

The one named Ah Zhuo then looked around and said in a deep voice:

“I understand that you hate him, but, the person was sent back by the patriarch.

“It was made very clear that the matriarch would have a disposition of this matter.

“For you to privately lay hands on him, this is breaking the rules.”

Speaking of this, the two had already arrived in the middle of the corner, avoiding the sight of bystanders, but unable to hide from Jiang Ran and Tang Wuyi’s attention.

Then he heard that Ah Zhuo brother say in an extremely low voice:

“Moreover, it’s still a toss-up as to what the truth of this matter is.

“When Ah Shang left, he once swore a heavy oath that he would definitely reclaim the Compassion King and take Ana’s head back.

“However, this has gone out for less than a year, how could there be such a big change?

“The patriarch suddenly then said that he colluded with Ana and had long since forgotten about Ah Zhu.

“The mouth is also on the tongue sealing compulsion, there is a mouth can not speak, there are words can not be said …… Xiaojiu you think carefully, this will not have what we do not know the problem in it.

“It is easy for you to kill him now, only afraid of regretting in the future.”

That Xiaojiu was originally full of tears, after hearing this, but his face changed:

“Brother Ah Zhuo, what do you mean by that? Could it be that you are trying to say …… trying to say ……

“No, it can’t be, I’m going to ask the patriarch grandfather ……”

“Must not!!!”

Azor’s face changed:

“If it’s true that this matter is problematic as I think, if he can do this to Ah Shang, what should you do?”

The blood color on Xiao Jiu’s face faded cleanly in an instant and he just shook his head:

“This is impossible …… this is absolutely impossible ……

“Moreover, when our people captured him, he was indeed with Ana ah.”

“So, I’m now even more curious to know how exactly they came to an agreement.”

“What do you …… want to do?”
