Chapter 315 Tianxuan: High Priest, I think...

clang!clang!clang!
Tianxuan made four moves in succession. The coordination between the three unique martial arts, although not comparable to the Three-Point Return to Origin, could also be called exquisite, and the attack was earth-shattering. The high priestess, the strongest woman in the Western Regions, seemed mediocre in defense, but she was as firm as a mountain.

The fists, palms and legs formed a barrier against the scepter. The sound of metal clashing continued, and clusters of sparks flew up and fell on the scales of the strange beast, but failed to cause any damage.

Brush and pull!

Tianxuan and the high priest completed the confrontation in a flash.

The flying scepter fell back into the high priest's slender jade hand, and lightly tapped in the air, faintly covering Tianxuan's vital points; on the contrary, Xuan, who had performed four consecutive moves, floated like a banished immortal, landed on the back of the strange beast, his hands turned into fists and palms, and his legs were also ready to go.

As soon as he was ready, Tianxuan punched out with a torrent of force, sweeping up the force released by the high priest with his scepter, and counterattacked the high priest in the face, saying:

"High Priest, I don't know what the extraterritorial demon you're talking about is, and I'm not very interested in you. However, I have something to ask you!"

"what's up?"

The scepter in the hands of the high priest was about five feet long. As Tianxuan had judged, the Lord of Loulan did not have much actual combat experience, but her moves were exquisite. With a wave of the scepter in front of her, she neutralized the force that Tianxuan had hit back. In her hands, the scepter suddenly became a strange weapon. In Tianxuan's opinion, it integrated the advantages of swords, Emei spears, sticks, judge's pens, iron rulers and other weapons into one, with a myriad of changes.

Facing Tianxuan's abrupt words, the high priest with a pair of beautiful eyes like gemstones narrowed his eyes slightly, and his sight swept across Tianxuan's cheek. Seeing that Tianxuan's expression did not seem to be false, he could not help but secretly said:

[Could it be that Tian Xuanzi is not the extraterritorial demon that the goddess sent down in the oracle? Or, he is indeed an extraterritorial demon, but he has no memory of the other world? ]

The solid ice in his heart seemed to be melting because of Tianxuan's words, and ripples appeared on the surface, but his face remained expressionless.

"What is the origin of the Ghost Cave Clan?"

Tianxuan flipped his right hand, and the palm power was domineering and fast, like a dark cloud blowing in, covering the vital parts of the high priest, and asked without shame.

Wuchan Najiahai claimed that the so-called Ghost Cave Clan was actually the descendant of Chiyou. Her eyes without even a trace of white were created by the fusion of the two extremely opposite bloodlines of Xuanyuan and Chiyou. However, Tianxuan was not a three-year-old child, and it was impossible for him to believe everything Wuchan Najiahai said.

If one wants to verify the truth of Ucchanagahai's words, there is no one more suitable than the high priest of Loulan in the Western Regions.

Brush and pull!

Facing Tianxuan's palm, the high priestess' figure was as graceful as a fairy. It seemed that she was in great danger, but in fact, she avoided Tianxuan's fatal palm calmly. The unparalleled palm force broke through the phantom left by the high priestess and fell into the crowd behind her. More than a dozen Western Region soldiers were unable to dodge and were torn to pieces by this seemingly loose but actually condensed palm force.

"The origin of the Ghost Cave Clan?" The high priest landed on the back of the strange beast again. Facing Tianxuan's question, a look of surprise appeared on his beautiful and cold face. "You want to know this?" As he spoke, the high priest swung the scepter in his hand and smashed it hard on Tianxuan's head. Looking at the scepter that was smashing towards him, even though Tianxuan had the innate energy to protect his body, he still felt a little palpitation and hurriedly used the move 'Xie Yun Wu Ding' to fight back. "Is it not possible?"

The move "Xie Yun Wu Ding" uses the vague and uncertain energy of Yin and Yang to divert the high priest's staff, and some of the force is transmitted to the high priest's body through the staff.

“Of course!” Although the high priest didn’t understand why Tianxuan asked her about the origins of the Ghost Cave Clan, she didn’t mind telling him, “The records left by our Loulan ancestors said that the predecessor of the Ghost Cave Clan was a barbarian tribe that was once so prominent that even the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty was terrified and feared—the Quanrong!”

"Quanrong?" Tianxuan was shocked when he heard the words of the high priest. Ruoyan, he originally believed Wuchannagahai's words only three points, but when the word Quanrong was uttered, his belief increased to five points.

Quanrong, also known as Xianyun, lived in Shaanxi and Gansu in ancient times. In the late Western Zhou Dynasty, because King You of Zhou abolished the legitimate heir and enthroned a concubine, the Marquis of Shen joined forces with the Zeng State and the Western Yi Quanrong to attack King You of Zhou. As a result, King You of Zhou was killed by the Quanrong, and King You's favorite concubine Bao Si was captured. The capital Fenghao was occupied by the Quanrong, and the once powerful Western Zhou Dynasty collapsed.

In Tianxuan's past life, the Central Plains dynasty liked to call the nomadic peoples in the northwest "Quanrong" and "Rongdi", but the Quanrong tribe only appeared briefly in the mottled history books, and quickly disappeared after the establishment of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. Combined with Wuchanakahai's words, it is enough to prove that she did not lie to Tianxuan. Or to be more precise, not all of what she said was a lie.

"Yes, it is Quanrong."

The high priestess has not stopped attacking. Her moves are not only exquisite and varied, but also contain a sacred atmosphere. The cascading air waves created by her moves surround the high priestess, making her look like a fairy in mythology and legends.

"According to Loulan records, more than 500 years ago, the Quanrong tribe encountered a huge natural disaster. In just a few days, most of the tribe members were killed or injured. For some reason, the remnants left their ancestral land and came to the Western Regions. They abandoned their nomadic life on the ground and hid underground. Over time, people who didn't know the inside story called them the Ghost Cave Tribe, and believed that they were monsters from underground."

"I see." Tian Xuan did not think that the high priest would deceive him on this matter, and nodded in understanding. "The Guidong tribe is the descendant of the Quanrong, but the place where the Quanrong lived is quite far away from the Western Regions. Although Loulan is the most powerful country in the Western Regions, why would it pay attention to this tribe that has nothing to do with it?"

"It's very simple!" The high priest said frankly in response to Tianxuan's questioning, "The Quanrong are the descendants of Chiyou. I, Loulan, respect the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady as the goddess of creation. How can we not pay attention to the descendants of our old enemy?"

As he said this, the high priest stared at Tianxuan with eyes that were spitting fire.

In the ancient times of Tianxuan, there was also the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady, but she was not the goddess of creation, but a great supernatural being formed by the gathering of nine heavenly rays of light. When Emperor Xuanyuan fought against the great wizard Chiyou, she helped. When Haotian Yaochi and his wife followed the order of Hongjun Daozu to rectify the ruined heaven, the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady was invited to join the heaven because she was the best friend of Yaochi Jinmu.

Although the Queen Mother of the Nine Heavens only appeared briefly in Tianxuan's writing, Tianxuan neither belittled nor praised her. However, in the eyes of Loulan, who regarded the Queen Mother of the Nine Heavens as the supreme goddess, Tianxuan's description itself was a blasphemy against her.

"I see." When their eyes met, Tianxuan caught the anger in the high priest's eyes and realized where the anger came from, but his face remained expressionless.

"enough!"

Although Tianxuan and the high priest were talking, they were not idle. The three unique martial arts, integrating the three powers of melting frost, wind and cloud, possessed extraordinary power, and the moves were exquisite and powerful; the high priest had a graceful posture, as agile as a swimming dragon, unpredictable, and always dissolved Tianxuan's wind, cloud and frost power, which became a dazzling and beautiful vision to set off his own.
