Chapter 97 The Untamed 40

Chapter 97 The Untamed 40
When Lan Xichen, Lan Wangji, Ling Xi and their group walked to the mountain gate, they happened to meet people from the Yunmeng Jiang Clan, so the team going down the mountain expanded again.

Wen Qing and Wen Ning had been asked to treat Jiang Yanli before, and after they came back they went with them.

At the foot of the mountain, Caiyi Town.

Probably due to the recent water disaster, many shops in Caiyi Town were closed, but there were still some small vendors on the shore.

The group arrived at the inn. As soon as they entered, the dust in the air made everyone cough.

Ling Xi gently wiped the dust off the table with his hand. Judging from the dust, it seemed to have been there for some time.

"Ah, cut."

Wei Ying sneezed, looked at the waiter who brought them in, and asked, "Is there no one cleaning this place?"

The waiter even said he didn't dare: "Sir, please bear with me. Since the lake started to eat people, our inn has no guests staying in the inn. You are the first wave."

“Eat people?” Wei Ying grasped the key point of the waiter’s words, “Isn’t this water ghost the plants and trees in the water? How can it eat people?”

The waiter replied, "I don't know what's in the lake. This Biling Lake has been calm for years, but for some reason, two months ago a group of foreign merchants came and their boat sank. At first, no one took it seriously, but later more and more of them came. Many local boatmen even had their boats capsized. There has been no such thing in recent years."

Hearing this, Xue Yang asked: "What about the people on the boat?"

Waiter: “They ate them. They ate them. They didn’t come up after they fell in. There’s not even a corpse.”

Meng Yao frowned and said kindly: "Have you seen anything that eats people?"

The waiter shook his head: "I don't know."

Ling Xi knew that the Biling Lake was the Shuixingyuan where that bastard Wen Chao was driven down from the Qishan Wen Clan's territory. He thought that the beating he gave Wen Chao that day was not enough, and wondered what Wen Ruohan had done to Wen Chao afterwards, and also wondered if he had investigated the situation of the Qishan Wen Clan.

Ling Xi looked at Lan Xichen and asked for his advice: "Let's take a break today and go to Biling Lake to find out tomorrow."

Lan Xichen felt a little worried and nodded slightly: "Okay."

Nothing happened all night.

The next day, the group went to Biling Lake, took more than a dozen small boats, and rowed towards the gathering place of the water monsters.

Gradually, there were fewer and fewer houses on both sides of the river, and the river became quieter.

Near the middle of the river, thick fog suddenly appeared on the lake and visibility was extremely low.

Lan Xichen said loudly: "Everyone, be careful, there is a water monster ahead."

Ling Xi looked at the calm water surface. Apart from being a little weird, there was no water monster.

After thinking for a while, an idea suddenly occurred to her mind, and she shouted, "Aying, throw one of your Yin-summoning talismans into the water."

Wei Ying's eyes lit up. Yes, if those water monsters couldn't come out, he could just find a way to summon them out.

"Okay, sister."

As he spoke, he took out a talisman from his storage bag, lit it up with his spiritual power, threw it into the lake, and quietly waited for the result.

Nie Huaisang, who was on the same boat with him, saw that the talisman he took out was not available in Duobao Pavilion, and he had never seen it in Wei Ying's hand. He couldn't help but ask in surprise: "Brother Wei, you drew a new talisman again? Why haven't I seen this talisman before?"

Wei Ying laughed, "This is an idea I came up with recently. The effect of this talisman is similar to the Yin-summoning Flag and the Wind-evil Plate. They can all attract evil spirits, but the talisman is simpler and lighter. You can carry it with you and use it anytime and anywhere. This talisman has not yet been put on the shelves of Duobao Pavilion."

Wei Ying has been selling all the various talismans he has painted, the array plates he has made, and the Yin-summoning flag and wind-evil plate he invented in recent years at Duobao Pavilion. He has made a lot of money, and now he is very wealthy. Nie Huaisang: "Then you have to leave some for me when they are put on the shelves."

The things in Duobao Pavilion are extremely popular in the entire cultivation world and are often out of stock.

Nie Huaisang had always relied on his relationship with Lingyun Sect to get through the back door to buy some.

Wei Ying: "I understand, Brother Nie. I will never forget you."

Soon, the effect of the Yin-attracting talisman became apparent.

In the center of the lake surrounded by more than a dozen small boats, a large area of ​​black suddenly appeared. At first glance, they were all water monsters in the lake, and there were countless of them.

Jiang Cheng was horrified and asked in surprise, "Why are there so many water monsters?"

Wei Ying and the others' expressions turned serious, and they summoned out their swords and held them in their hands.

Ling Xi did not intend to take action. Although these water monsters were numerous, their attack power was not very strong. Aying and the others could deal with them themselves.

Lan Xichen was on the same boat with her, and when he saw that she didn't make any move, he asked, "Ah Xi, why aren't you going to take action?"

Ling Xi said, "Aying and the others can handle it."

Then, Lan Xichen stopped moving, and the two of them stood leisurely on the boat. It seemed as if there was a barrier covering them, forming a world of their own.

On the other hand, seeing so many water monsters, some disciples who were not so experienced had already panicked, especially some outer disciples of Gusu Lan Clan.

Wei Ying summoned his sword Jiaoyang and exchanged glances with Xue Yang, Meng Yao, Wen Qing, and Wen Ning on the side. The four of them had known each other for many years and had an unparalleled tacit understanding. They could all tell what each other was thinking.

Wei Ying shouted, “Everyone, hurry up and fly your swords.”

When the others heard his words, they gratefully drew their swords and flew up with their swords, fearing that they would be dragged into the water by the water monster in the lake.

Wei Ying and the other three flew into the air on their swords at the same time, and then their hands moved in unison, spiritual power of different colors emanated from them, and complex lines gradually formed, and the lines in front of the four people slowly began to merge into one.

Soon, with the movements of their hands, a formation appeared on the lake, covering the water monsters. Then the four of them waved their hands downwards, and the formation sank into the water and turned into a net, trapping all the water monsters in it. Moreover, the net kept shrinking, and as its range shrank, the water monsters trapped in the net began to dissipate at an extremely fast speed.

The formation that Wei Ying and the others had cast was a complex formation that combined a trapping formation, a killing formation, and a purification formation into one. However, this formation required a lot of spiritual power, so it required several people to cast it together.

In a short while, these water monsters, which were a threat to most disciples, were all eliminated.

At this time, everyone finally realized the powerful strength of Wei Ying and his companions. Not only Wei Ying and Xue Yang who were well-known to the public, but even the very low-key Meng Yao and Wen Qing and Wen Ning all had extraordinary strength.

Moreover, each of their spirit swords seemed to be of top-grade spirit swords, definitely extraordinary items.

At this moment, everyone had a different understanding of the strength of Lingyun Sect.

Jiang Cheng was in mid-air, looking at Wei Ying with a complicated expression.

His mother has been telling me since childhood how great Wei Ying and Wei Wuxian are, how Wei Wuxian is much better than them, and why her son cannot compare to Cangse Sanren's son.

He has always lived under the shadow of Wei Wuxian, and he has always hoped to defeat Wei Ying, but at this moment, when he looked at the high spirits of Wei Wuxian, he actually felt a little envious.

Wei Wuxian is surrounded by family and good friends, and is free and unrestrained, which is what he has always longed for but has not had.
