It seems the Dragon Soaring Country indeed has formidable strength; we must plan for the long term.
Hidden Moon Following Wind...we shall see.
————————
Xiao Jie, however, was unaware that he had stirred up another wave of hatred against himself, but even if he knew, he probably wouldn’t care.
He glanced at the three corpses on the ground, and his heart had already guessed their identities.
These three should be spies from the Ritian Kingdom, likely sent here for reconnaissance or infiltration missions; unfortunately, they hid in the Guardian Room, a place no one usually visits, but unexpectedly ran into him.
Consider them unlucky.
He casually picked up the items dropped by the three people, but unfortunately didn’t get any equipnt, just ordinary personal items.
Xiao Jie was about to search for information when a Wolf Spirit suddenly howled, as if it had discovered sothing.
Xiao Jie quickly beca alert again and approached, only to see an old man with gray hair crawling out of a pile of old books.
The old man trembled as he walked out, quickly saluting Xiao Jie.
"Thank you, brave hero, for punishing evil and promoting good. If you had been even a mont later, I’m afraid I would have lost my life."
Xiao Jie was respectfully regarded, and the old man was particularly polite.
"No need to be polite, old man. Protecting the land and securing the people is a duty I should fulfill."
Indeed, that was true, as Xiao Jie was currently part of Dragon Soaring Country’s high echelon.
Technically, he was also one of the defenders of Chuyun City.
The old man nodded and sighed, "Alas, once the war begins, who knows how long the chaos will last. The Nine States’ human path was already declining, it took great effort to quell Long Wushang’s unrest, but now there’s more fighting, who knows when it will end."
"Old man, don’t worry, my Dragon Soaring Country has a strong army and the people’s allegiance; we will prevail. Once the world is united, peace will naturally follow."
"Ah, I hope so."
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Xiao Jie quickly stated his purpose.
"Old man, I am here to search for so information; could you help ? Do you know if there were any records at the local observatory when the Demon Star descended?"
The old man nodded slightly, "Of course, there are records. Please wait a mont, brave hero, I will find them for you."
In a mont, he found a scroll of bamboo slip from a row of bookshelves.
Xiao Jie hastily opened it to check.
"Northern Wilderness Anomalies": In the autumn month of Yin and Mao, during the transition of new and full moon, the skies underwent a strange change. At midnight, a red star suddenly appeared in the Eastern Azure Dragon constellation, its light like blood, as large as a bushel, spanning the sky from Jiao to Kang, its tail trailing blue fla, illuminating the ground like daylight. Observers said that wherever it passed, the stars shook...
The two books should record the sa event, but due to different observation locations, the scenes witnessed were also different. The scene seen from Chuyun City shows the Demon Star appearing in the "Eastern Azure Dragon constellation."
It was yet another thing Xiao Jie didn’t understand.
"Old man, do you know which star constellation is the Eastern Azure Dragon?"
The old man nodded slightly, "Naturally I know, follow , brave hero." He carefully stepped over the corpses on the ground and led Xiao Jie outside.
Pointing to the sky, "It’s those bright stars slightly to the east in the center of Chuyun City."
Xiao Jie followed the direction of his finger and opened the large map, using the Demon Star Tower as a reference point, drawing a long line northward, through Xiaofeng City’s west central line and Chuyun City’s east central line, the three points almost ford a straight line.
Xiao Jie suddenly understood in his heart, that’s right, Gu Yun State is right on this line!
He just needed to follow this line, and he would undoubtedly find Gu Yun State.
"Thank you, old man, I take my leave now; soone will co from the city to handle these corpses shortly."
As Xiao Jie spoke, he transford into a Storm Thunder Eagle, took flight once again, and headed north. As he flew, he sent a private ssage to Hidden Dragon Do Not Use, explaining the situation here.
He closed the private ssage and no longer distracted himself, for now he had only one destination—to Gu Yun State!
