Chapter 302: Eighteen Beauties Want to Kill
“Spiritual Eyes?”
The Old Village Chief looked at Xiao Yun in surprise, “I really haven’t heard of this!”
It was normal for him not to have heard about Spiritual Eyes. Back then, Wu Daozi would certainly not have casually leaked the existence of Spiritual Eyes on Panlong Mountain.
The Old Village Chief asked, “Xiao Yun, what are Spiritual Eyes?”
Xiao Yun smiled and said, “Just as springs have springheads, spirits have Spiritual Eyes. These Spiritual Eyes are places where Spiritual Energy gathers, also known as spiritual roots. They collect the properties of metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, rain, thunder, and lightning from the heavens and the earth. Their power is so immense that it is beyond the imagination of ordinary people. If Panlong Mountain did not have Spiritual Eyes, the Painted Immortal would not have been able to set up such a powerful protective array around Panlong Mountain back in the day!”
Upon hearing this, the Old Village Chief nodded and said, “So that’s how it is. Then those flowers cultivated by Qiu Yue are also assisted by Spiritual Energy?”
Xiao Yun did not expect the Old Village Chief to be so quick-witted at his age. He smiled and said, “Just as you said, Old Village Chief.”
When they arrived at the Old Village Chief's home, he brewed a cup of tea for Xiao Yun. After they sat down, they continued discussing the topic of Spiritual Eyes.
Xiao Yun said, “Spiritual Eyes are the lifeblood of Panlong Mountain. Once this lifeblood is destroyed, both the ecology of Panlong Mountain and its other resources will suffer severe damage. Therefore, I want to find these Spiritual Eyes as soon as possible and protect them well to prevent anyone from getting close.”
He did not tell the Old Village Chief that Japanese Invaders had already sent people to infiltrate Huaxia; he was afraid it would frighten him.
However, he needed to convey the seriousness of the issue to him so that he would understand how important Spiritual Eyes were to Panlong Mountain.
Sure enough, Xiao Yun's words made the Old Village Chief's expression turn serious: “Xiao Yun, I will listen to you, but Panlong Mountain is too vast. How can we find the Spiritual Eyes?”
Xiao Yun shook his head and said, "I haven't thought of a solution either."
As the two were deep in thought, the phone of Old Village Chief suddenly rang.
People in the mountains generally don't go out much and don't buy phones. The phone of Old Village Chief was provided by Xiao Yun during his last visit to Panlong Mountain, along with phones for Xiao Ling and others.
However, for Xiao Ling, the Bird Woman, having a phone was pointless as she had never called him even once.
Only Qiu Yue didn't like phones and didn't want one.
When Old Village Chief saw the incoming call, it was from Cheng Hu.
He pressed the answer button, and Cheng Hu's voice came through, pleading for help: "Old Village Chief, help! I... I am surrounded by eighteen naked beauties with swords. They... they want to kill us..."
In the background, Red Sister's terrified screams could be heard intermittently.
"Ah, Tiger, where are you right now?" Old Village Chief asked in shock.
Cheng Hu replied with a sobbing tone, "We're in an underground cave at the top of Yantai Peak."
Old Village Chief said, "Don't panic, I'll rush over immediately!"
After hanging up the phone, Old Village Chief turned pale and said, "Xiao Yun, I need to gather everyone in the village right away and bring any usable weapons to rescue Cheng Hu at Yantai Peak!"
Xiao Yun was taken aback; what were Cheng Hu and Red Sister doing at the top of Yantai Peak at this late hour?
"What exactly happened?" Xiao Yun asked.
The Old Village Chief said, "Cheng Hu told me that he was surrounded by eighteen naked beauties holding swords in a cave at the peak. They want to kill him and Red Sister."
Xiao Yun was stunned upon hearing this. He understood the customs of Panlong Mountain; the people here were simple and honest, treating others with sincerity. Neighbors respected each other, lived in harmony, and treated guests with courtesy, ensuring no deceit towards the young or old. It could truly be called a paradise, where doors were left unlocked at night and nothing was stolen from the roads.
But where did these eighteen naked beauties come from?
And why did they want to kill Cheng Hu and Red Sister?
A series of questions suddenly arose in Xiao Yun's mind.
"Old Village Chief, don't alert the others in the village. Just take me to Yantai Peak!" Xiao Yun said with a smile.
The Old Village Chief replied, "How can we save them with just the two of us?"
Xiao Yun reassured him, "Don't worry, with me around, nothing serious will happen."
In the end, the Old Village Chief agreed to Xiao Yun's request.
However, just before leaving, the Old Village Chief grabbed two iron shovels—one for Xiao Yun and one for himself.
Xiao Yun said, "We don't need to bring anything; let's go empty-handed!"
In his opinion, those eighteen naked beauties definitely did not truly intend to kill Cheng Hu and Red Sister; otherwise, they would not have given him a chance to make a phone call.
The question remained: who were those women, and how did they appear at Yantai Peak?
Xiao Yun shared his thoughts and questions with the Old Village Chief, who also felt quite puzzled.
The Old Village Chief said, "I can confidently say that these women are definitely not from our Painted Immortal Village. The women of Painted Immortal Village would never do such a thing."
The two of them stepped out and headed towards Yantai Peak.
Fortunately, there was a moon tonight, and under the bright moonlight, every blade of grass beneath their feet could be clearly distinguished.
As they walked, the Old Village Chief told Xiao Yun that Panlong Mountain was also called Yanshan because of Yantai Peak. Legend has it that when the Painted Immortal first arrived here, he saw that the peak looked very much like a giant inkstone, so he built a pavilion there and named it Inkstone Pavilion. Whenever he had nothing to do, he would often invite some local elders to climb the mountain with him and chat about interesting stories from ancient times to the present at Inkstone Pavilion.
While talking about the origin of Yantai Peak, the Old Village Chief did not slow his pace at all. Cheng Hu and Red Sister were Xiao Yun's people; how could he not be anxious?
The Old Village Chief was anxious, but there were others even more so. Following closely behind them were three people.
Xiao Yun had excellent hearing; he noticed someone was following them from behind. He turned his head to take a look and saw three women hastily pursuing them from three hundred meters away through a thicket.
If it were anyone else, they wouldn't have noticed that someone was behind them.
But Xiao Yun was different; he possessed an extraordinary Spiritual Sense.
Upon seeing the faces of the three women, Xiao Yun couldn't help but be taken aback, thinking to himself, why are they coming this way too?
However, he did not stop his steps, knowing they would catch up soon.
...
These three women were none other than Little Bell and Black Fox and White Cat.
How did Little Bell and the others manage to catch up? It was because Cheng Hu had called the Old Village Chief first and then called Little Bell afterward.
During this time, Cheng Hu and Little Bell became familiar with each other after arriving at Panlong Mountain.
One day, when Little Bell learned that Cheng Hu was Xiao Yun's half-brother, she became curious and asked him how he ended up bringing his girlfriend to Panlong Mountain.
Cheng Hu honestly shared the story about how Red Sister had stolen a card from Hong Qichang. Little Bell laughed and said, "Wow, you’re supposed to be a big man, yet you can’t even protect your girlfriend and had to come here to hide. If it were your brother Xiao Yun, he would never do something like this."
"Brother Xiao has skills that I can't compare to," Cheng Hu replied, looking dejected.
Smack! Little Bell playfully slapped his head and said, "You useless thing! From now on, I’ll take care of that Hong family for you!"
Cheng Hu asked in surprise, "Sister Beauty, you know martial arts too?"
Little Bell proudly replied, "Of course! Let me tell you, all the skills your brother Xiao Yun has were taught by me!" She began boasting to Cheng Hu.
"Wow, Sister Beauty is that amazing!" Cheng Hu exclaimed, nearly dropping his jaw in disbelief.
After a moment, Cheng Hu regained his composure and cautiously asked, "Sister Beauty, could you teach me and Red Sister a couple of moves? I’m not asking to fight anyone; I just want to be able to protect myself!"
This wasn’t entirely his true intention; he thought to himself that if he could learn even half of Brother Xiao’s skills, he could leave Panlong Mountain and take down the Flying Tiger Gang to establish his own faction.
Cheng Hu kept calling her Sister Beauty, which made Little Bell very happy. She smiled and said, "Alright, since you have such sweet words, you seem like someone worth teaching."
Cheng Hu was so delighted he felt like rolling on the ground.
That noon, Little Bell called Black Fox and White Cat and asked Cheng Hu to bring Red Sister to a secluded thicket.
In that little thicket, Little Bell sat on a rock while Cheng Hu and Red Sister knelt before her, calling her Master as they performed the formal bowing ceremony.
As soon as Cheng Hu and Red Sister stood up, Little Bell seriously corrected them, saying, "From now on, when you address me, make sure to call me Beautiful Master!"
"Yes, Beautiful Master!" Cheng Hu and Red Sister replied in unison.
Black Fox and White Cat couldn't help but cover their mouths and chuckle from the side.
However, Little Bell continued, "This Beautiful Master doesn't teach just anyone. From now on, Black Fox and White Cat will teach you two!"
She then assigned: Black Fox would teach Cheng Hu, while White Cat would teach Red Sister.
These two women from the Demonic Sect naturally wouldn't impart their Demonic Sect techniques, which Cheng Hu and Red Sister wouldn't be able to learn anyway; they would only teach them some basic skills.
Nevertheless, Cheng Hu and Red Sister were quite serious about their learning.
This time, Cheng Hu and Red Sister found themselves surrounded by eighteen beautiful women wielding swords. In a moment of panic, they first called Old Village Chief for help. However, realizing that Old Village Chief didn't know martial arts, they quickly dialed Little Bell's phone to seek assistance from their Beautiful Master.
In Qiu Yue's bedroom, five women were huddled together on a mat engaged in deep conversation when Little Bell suddenly received Cheng Hu's distress call, causing her expression to change instantly.
She quietly pulled the two Demonic Sect women aside and went to the door, saying, "Cheng Hu and Red Sister are in trouble; we need to go save them!"
Previously, Little Bell and Second Girl had almost run all over Panlong Mountain and were quite familiar with Yantai Peak. When Xiao Yun and Old Village Chief rushed there, the three of them followed closely behind. The Pinnacle of Elegance has been updated.
