Chapter 1175: Pylorus

A team of monks in green robes came down from the mountain in a line, standing solemnly on both sides of the mountain gate. After bowing slightly to the four people, they remained silent.

Neither Wu Yan nor Wu Xiaohu looked at these monks. They looked in the same direction, and their expressions looked a little strange at the moment.

Especially Wu Xiaohu, his emotions were almost uncontrollable.

"Uncle! What is going on? Is it a coincidence?"

"Uncle doesn't know either. But everything will be clear when we meet the owner of this place. Xiaohu, does your 'Qingming card' have any abnormal reaction?" Wu Yan whispered.

Wu Xiaohu shook his head, with a puzzled look on his face.

The place where the two looked was the mountain gate stone of this mountain sect.

That mountain gate stone was not an ordinary object at first glance, and there were some very mysterious fluctuations of the netherworld on it.

"Wushan-Tongyoumen"!

It goes without saying what the name Wushan means to Wu Yan and Wu Xiaohu.

Wu Yan and Wu Xiaohu were surprised to see Wushan's name engraved on the huge mountain gate stone in front of them.

However, it is also possible that they made a mistake.

It is very likely that the mountain in front of them is called Wushan, and the sect on the mountain is the Tongyou Gate founded by the mysterious young master, so there is such a mountain gate stone in front of the mountain gate.

However, for some reason, when they saw those two words and sensed the mysterious underworld aura fluctuations on the stone, Wu Yan and Wu Xiaohu, both uncle and nephew, were shocked and could not help thinking of Wushan.

At this time, two monks in different costumes walked down quickly from the mountain gate. When they saw Wu Yan in front of the mountain gate, they were surprised and happy.

"Brother Wu, it's you!" The tall and thin Taoist priest was full of surprise.

"Brother Wu, I knew you would be fine. Now it seems that you are blessed by heaven! Hahaha, that's great!"

The young man next to the Taoist priest blushed and looked a little shy when he spoke. It was really strange for a grown man to have such an expression.

When Wu Yan saw the two, he was stunned.

"Jiang Ziyan, Liu Baoxin! Why are you here? Why are you here?"

Wu Yan looked at the two in surprise.

Tian Suanzi and Liu Baoxin had already rushed to Wu Yan's side, surprised and excited, each holding one of his arms, and pulled him up the mountain without saying anything, saying happily at the same time: "Brother Wu, it's great to see you! We really miss you so much, let's go to the mountain to reminisce about the past!"

"Yes! I still have a few pots of good wine in my collection. If Master Ji Han hears that you are here, he will definitely cook for you and prepare a table of delicious delicacies!"

The two seemed to have a very high status in this sect, and the cultivators around them were quite respectful.

After seeing Wu Yan, the two were so excited that they actually forgot themselves. This also surprised the cultivators around them, and they all guessed where this guest who came today came from.

"Don't worry, don't worry, I'll introduce them to you. This is my good friend Dugu Shouque, and this is my nephew Xiaohu. You should have met this Murong Fenghuo before, right?" Wu Yan got rid of the tug of Tian Suanzi and Liu Baoxin, and introduced the three people next to him to them.

"Hello, friend Dugu, and nephew Xiaohu, haha, you look like a tiger, and you really live up to your name!"

Liu Baoxin smiled and patted Wu Xiaohu's shoulder, greeted him politely, turned around and saluted Dugu Shouque, and then arched his hand to Murong Fenghuo nonchalantly, saying: "Murong Guardian, you brought Brother Wu here this time and made great contributions. The hall master will definitely reward you. You did a good job!"

Wu Yan looked at Liu Baoxin in silence. From what he said, it seemed that Murong Fenghuo, a great cultivator with the peak strength of the late Mahayana period and the peak cultivation of the ninth level of the Yuanti, was just the guardian of the Tongyou Gate in front of him?

Moreover, Wu Yan was sure that he had heard correctly and seen correctly, Liu Baoxin did not seem to care much about Murong Fenghuo.

Looking at Murong Fenghuo again, he actually smiled and bowed to Liu Baoxin, saying: "No, no, this is what I should do. It is my honor to share the worries of the hall master and the elders. Haha, Elder Liu is kind!"

"Okay, now that the people have been brought here, Murong Protector, Dugu Protector, there is nothing for you to do here. You go and do your work first, Brother Wu will leave it to us." Liu Baoxin ordered Murong Fenghuo and Dugu Shouque without any hesitation.

The two bowed politely to the two after hearing this, and then said to Wu Yan: "Friend Wu, we will take our leave first!"

Wu Yan wanted to say something to Dugu Shouque, but thought about it and gave up. He just nodded to the two and was surrounded by Tian Suanzi and Liu Baoxin and walked up the mountain.

The three of them talked happily along the way. Wu Yan mentioned some past events intentionally or unintentionally, and the two responded with a sigh. When they arrived at the sect hall on the top of the mountain, Wu Yan was sure that the two people in front of him were indeed Tian Suanzi and Liu Baoxin, and they were definitely not fake.

The three of them had experienced life and death together in the Wuliang Xumi Cave Heaven, and they were as close as brothers. Some things cannot be faked.

Standing in front of the hall on the top of the mountain, Wu Yan looked up and saw the plaque on the hall with the three big characters "Xuanyuan Hall" written on it, and he couldn't help but feel deeply moved.

Familiar names, but everything has changed.

The disciples on duty on both sides of the hall bowed to them when they saw a few people coming up, and then continued on duty with expressionless faces. Everything seemed to be the same as before.

"Zi Yan, could it be that the master of the Youmen you are currently in is Brother Xuanyuan?"

Wu Yan glanced at the hall for a moment, then finally looked away, sighed and asked.

"Brother Wu, you are mistaken. Tongyoumen is Tongyoumen, and Xuanyuan Palace is Xuanyuan Palace. The two cannot be confused. Brother Wu, please remember in the future that these words should not be said randomly anywhere!" Tiansuanzi heard this. Wu Yan's words immediately prompted him to whisper nervously.

"Let's go, Brother Wu, Xiaohu, go to our cave in the back mountain to talk. It's clean there, and there are fine wines and delicacies." Liu Baoxin pushed the two of them along the path next to the main hall and headed toward the back mountain.

A few moments later, the four people turned around and appeared in a wide courtyard in the back mountain.

Although there is no formation covering the four sides of this courtyard, the entire courtyard is surrounded by mountains and protected by the sect's formation. It is indeed quiet and elegant.

The four of them were seated separately, and Liu Baoxin went out for a while. When he came back, a large table of fine wine and delicacies had been set up.

However, the expression on his face was a little awkward. Before Wu Yan could ask, he took the initiative and said: "What a coincidence. Young Master Ji Han and Old Man Guitian have followed the hall master outside these days. Brother Wu, you are afraid for the time being. I can’t eat Master Ji Han’s delicacies anymore.”

"No problem." Wu Yan waved his hand and motioned for Liu Baoxin to sit down. His eyebrows were frowning slightly all the time, and he was really holding back a lot of questions all the way here.

Seeing that there was no one else around, he raised the subject again and said, "Ziyan, Baoxin, what is going on with all this? Why did Ji Han become a young master again?"

"Brother Wu, there are hidden twists and turns in this matter. Some of them, due to the original oath, I am afraid that I cannot explain them to Brother Wu. I ask for your understanding. I believe Brother Wu will explain the specific reasons in the future. Chance will know." Tian Suanzi smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Wu Yan nodded slightly to express his understanding.

Tian Suanzi continued: "Tongyoumen is a mysterious force from the Netherworld. It is said that it was founded by a mysterious monk who claimed to be the leader of Tongyou. However, no one has ever seen his true face.

When we followed Patriarch Diting to the Netherworld, we were caught up in a battle in the Netherworld. The two sides are directly connected to Youmen and Senluo Hall. At that time, Senluodian was in a strong position and Tongyoumen was about to lose. Patriarch Diting happened to be an old acquaintance with a mysterious ancestor in Tongyoumen, so he led us to join the battle.

After a great battle, both sides suffered heavy casualties. Many of the people we followed Patriarch Diting died in the Netherworld. Very few survived. Even though Patriarch Diting also joined the battle, he still couldn't get back to the disadvantage.

In the end, Tongyoumen had to withdraw from the Netherworld and retreated to a mysterious realm called Netherworld Eye through a special space passage, temporarily escaping the disaster. However, after Patriarch Tingting entered the eyes of the netherworld, he suddenly sensed that someone was calling him from the upper world.

He immediately left us in the care of Tongyoumen, while he went to Xuantian alone, and has not been heard from since.

Fortunately, the monks in Tongyoumen are all soul cultivators and cannot easily leave the Nether Eye. So they arranged for us to go to ten small worlds connected to the Netherworld Eye, and arranged corresponding branch hall masters.

These ten small worlds are said to be the ten secret realms of black and yellow small worlds in the fairy world. We, the people, are responsible for capturing various soul cultivators in the ten small black and yellow worlds for them, and sending them to the eyes of the netherworld for them to absorb and strengthen the Netherworld.

Our branch is the Xuanyuan Palace led by the Master of Xuanyuanjie Palace. Coincidentally, in this small mysterious world we came to, there is actually a mysterious altar that is closely related to the lineage of the master of Xuanyuanjie Palace.

With his bloodline, Master Xuanyuanjie successfully opened the mysterious altar and became the young master of the deserted island in this small black and yellow world. And the small world of Xuanyuan Terrace we are in now is also the inheritance he received when he opened the altar.

We originally didn't want to go back to the pylorus, so we hid in the small world of Xuanyuan Terrace. Unexpectedly, the Nether Gate was actually very supernatural. Based on some clues left before, a Nether Gate stone was driven into the small world of Xuanyuan Terrace and fixed on Xuanyuan Mountain. "

"Could it be that the huge mountain gate stone you saw in front of the mountain gate just now is the Netherworld Stone you mentioned? Could this stone be able to connect to the Netherworld Eye?" Wu Yan looked at Tiansuanzi with a strange look in his eyes.

Tiansuanzi nodded and said: "That's right. Every once in a while, Tongyoumen will send envoys to the small world of Xuanyuan to ask for soul cultivation from Master Xuanyuanjie. Fortunately, Master Xuanyuan has now become the young man of the Eight Tribes of the Wild. Lord, the Huangba tribe seemed to be very good at catching soul cultivators that day, and we were able to successfully complete every mission."

Wu Yan frowned when he heard this. There were obviously other secret things here, but the two of them didn't mention them. For example, what is the origin of the pylorus and who are its characters.

I think this probably involves the so-called oath issue. It was not easy for Wu Yan to ask too many questions.

"By the way, Ziyan, since that stone is the Tongyou Stone, why is the word Wu Shan engraved on it?"

Wu Yan suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked Tian Suanzi calmly. When Wu Xiaohu heard Wu Yan's words, he became nervous.
