(PS: I've found a place to write, it has no internet or mobile phones. I plan to spend fixed times here daily to write, and hope to release three chapters every day starting today!)
At present, Yang Tian and Young Lady Yaoyao walked toward the depths of the cave.
From here, they couldn't sense the Spirit Breath Wave outside, so when Chen Na and the others arrived, neither of them knew.
The voice seemed to suddenly echo right beside their ears.
Even Yang Tian couldn't react for a moment.
Yang Tian couldn't help but feel a bit tense. He originally thought there was no one here, but now it was clear that not only was someone here, they were also a master.
Meanwhile, upon hearing the laughter, Young Lady Yaoyao's eyes brightened: "Yang, I know where this is!"
"Where?"
Yang Tian asked.
"This should be the retreat area of our Fox Race's three elders!"
Young Lady Yaoyao said excitedly.
"Oh? So you're saying this voice was made by your elders?"
Yang Tian quickly asked.
"Correct!" Young Lady Yaoyao nodded heavily, raised her voice, and said, "Elders, I am Princess Yaoyao of the Fox Race. We came here not to disturb you but to seek refuge."
The surroundings fell into dead silence.
Yet Yang Tian felt a massive wave of Spirit Breath surround them.
Soon, the voice again echoed: "The girl is one of our Fox Race, but the boy is not!"
"Elders, it's like this, Yang is from the outside, he's human, and he's been helping me. If it weren't for his intervention, all of our Fox Race's young ones would have been killed!"
Young Lady Yaoyao quickly explained.
"What's going on?"
Finally, a hint of confusion slipped into the voice.
"Elders, it's like this!" Young Lady Yaoyao glanced at Yang Tian, then raised her voice and said: "An outsider named Fierce Celestial King came and occupied Grandmother's body, forcing all our young ones to enter the Dark Land for exploration. But in truth, Fierce Celestial King was searching for someone here! Throughout the journey, our clansmen were either killed by Corpse Foxes or refined by Fierce Celestial King!"
"What did you say?"
Shock filled the voice.
Immediately afterward, Yang Tian felt a massive aura spreading outward.
If not mistaken, this should be the Divine Sense of the Fox Race's elders probing the outside.
Yang Tian also extended his Divine Sense to follow.
Soon, he was amazed to discover that the elder's Divine Sense comprehensively covered the area within a hundred kilometers.
This made Yang Tian's expression serious.
After all, at most he could only detect up to twenty kilometers away.
Yet this elder extended his Divine Sense a full hundred kilometers out!
"What's going on? The Dark Land is filled with the corpses of our Fox Race! I clearly stated that without our three elders' consent, no clansmen are allowed to enter the Dark Land! What was Meng thinking?"
An angry voice shouted.
"My grandmother has been controlled by Fierce Celestial King, who is part of the Dark Organization. And the Dark Organization has brought three terrifying experts!"
Young Lady Yaoyao raised her voice.
"The Dark Organization? Isn't that the same group that overthrew the Ancient Martial Arts Dynasty to establish themselves? Why would they extend their reach here? They're courting death! This place isn't one for these lowly humans to intrude!"
The voice of anger echoed within the mountain cavern from the Fox Race's elders.
"These three elders pursued our clansmen. If Yang hadn't intervened, I would have long been killed by them, but the other clansmen couldn't survive…"
Young Lady Yaoyao said sadly.
"Meng hasn't protected you well, such folly!" In the darkness, the Fox Race's elder's angry voice resonated: "Come and tell us the details; this matter concerns the survival of the Fox Race. It seems we three old timers need to exit seclusion early!"
Young Lady Yaoyao exhaled in relief.
As long as these three elderly elders exit seclusion, they could fight against Wang Jie and the others.
At that moment, Young Lady Yaoyao and Yang Tian walked deeper into the cave.
All the way, the purple-red glow illuminated, occasionally doors to chambers opened, and finally, they arrived at a stone chamber.
This stone chamber was very large.
About the size of a football field.
An elderly man sat in the center of the stone chamber, his face youthful, hair white, and complexion rosy, clearly an existence who had cultivated to the extreme.
Around the elder stood twelve stones.
On these twelve stones were images of twelve different animals.
Yang Tian looked intently and saw that the elder had drawn the human's Twelve Zodiac.
