Chapter 1150 Left Envoy under the Goddess's Throne - Yun Li
Loves to teach others!
Su Xiaoya never dreamed that the seemingly strange and troublesome three-headed man was actually a chatterbox.
More importantly, once he started talking, it was like a flood bursting its banks, he talked non-stop and revealed the distribution of forces in the Southern Wilderness in detail without anyone having to ask him anything.
The Southern Wilderness is divided into three major domains: the Crimson Flame Domain, the Wushan Domain, and the Wind Spirit Domain.
The Crimson Flame Domain is dominated by the Crimson Flame Volcano, where Lord Taotie resides. Under his command are the Fire Crow Clan and Lava Giants, each of them exceptionally fierce, like tigers descending the mountain, unstoppable.
Located in the southern part of the Southern Wilderness, the Wushan Domain has a divine medicine of the Heavenly Emperor hidden on its mountain peak. The Yellow Bird guards the Black Serpent, which in turn devours the Moose. The three are mutually reinforcing and restraining, forming a world of their own. The Goddess of Wushan holds great power in this place, and her methods are unfathomable and difficult to understand.
The Wind Spirit Realm is in the East. The Wind God Yinyin is like a majestic emperor, in charge of the coming and going of the wind. He and other wind gods such as Kuafeng and Yujiang each have their own duties. The Wind Spirit Clan has served the Wind God for generations and can ride the gale, traveling thousands of miles a day as if walking on flat ground.
Indeed, appearances can be deceiving, and the sea cannot be measured by a bushel.
The three-headed man had three heads and three mouths, chattering away without ever stopping.
It truly broadened the horizons of Su Xiaoya and her two companions.
"My Three-Headed Kingdom resides in Mount Buting, straddling the borders of the three realms. It is the hub connecting the three realms, yet it is merely the most insignificant force." The head on the right finally opened its eyes, its gaze cloudy yet revealing wisdom.
"The three regions have always kept to themselves, except for the once-every-hundred-year 'Divine Tree Festival,' when they gather at the foot of the Crimson Flame Volcano to offer sacrifices to heaven and earth with leaves of the 'Eternal Wood,' praying for favorable weather and the pacification of ferocious beasts in the Southern Wilderness."
"But this year's 'Sacred Tree Festival' may not be peaceful." The middle head sighed, his tone full of worry.
"The Fire Raven Clan of the Crimson Flame Domain is growing ambitious and wants to monopolize the Emberwood. They have secretly allied with the Lava Giants and are likely to launch an attack during the Sacred Tree Festival."
"The goddess of Wushan also sent word that the Heavenly Emperor's Divine Medicine has been acting strangely lately, which is probably related to the 'Eternal Wood' and she will not let it go."
"Lord Yinyinhu of the Wind Spirit Domain is neutral, but his subordinate Kuafeng is hot-tempered and has long disliked the Fire Crow Clan. He might start a fight at the slightest provocation."
……
The three heads, one speaking and the other taking turns, clearly explained the power struggles in the Southern Wilderness.
Su Mingyi and the other two were completely dumbfounded—was this something they could listen to?
Immediately, the three of them felt a sinking feeling in their hearts. They hadn't expected to encounter such a troublesome situation so soon after entering the Southern Wilderness.
That's it.
They come, the security!
Su Xiaoya and the other two maintained polite smiles throughout.
When the three men had finally finished talking, they took their leave.
call!
Wow, you're quite the talker!
The three of them started walking slowly, then quickened their pace, faster and faster, until finally they were practically fleeing in panic...
Bu Ting Mountain.
This mountain range stretches across three regions like a winding dragon, and is like an enormous wedge deeply embedded in the vast land of the Southern Wilderness.
It divides the land into three distinct areas:
To the east lies the Wushan region, where fog and clouds linger all day long, and dazzling, colorful rays of light often suddenly appear.
The western part is adjacent to the Crimson Flame Domain, where the exposed rock layers look as if they have been scorched by fire, unbearably hot and constantly emitting rolling heat waves.
The winds extend to the north towards the Wind Spirit Domain, where they howl year-round, their sound like heavenly music. However, the powerful winds relentlessly erode the surrounding rocks, eventually polishing them into mirror-like surfaces.
The mysterious Three-Headed Kingdom lies quietly in the narrowest part of this area where the three sides meet, like an ancient mystery hidden in the mist, waiting for future generations to uncover it...
The Three-Headed Kingdom, though called a nation, was in reality just a tribe of a little over a thousand people, which became known as the Three-Headed Kingdom by chance.
The people of the Three Heads all live in the mountains, carving out caves as their homes.
What makes the Three-Headed People truly unique is their appearance—they are born with three heads and six arms, and each of their three heads thinks independently, often arguing endlessly with themselves…
This is precisely why they are able to understand the different ways of thinking in each domain, thus becoming a natural bridge for communication between the three domains.
Xuanluo, the chieftain of the three-headed people, is now over three hundred years old and has experienced three Sacred Tree Festivals.
His three heads, named "Think," "Discern," and "Enlighten," are currently engaged in a heated debate.
"The Fire Raven Clan envoy arrived again yesterday, bringing three cartloads of fire crystals." The "Si" on the left spoke with a worried tone, as if a heavy burden was weighing on his heart. "This is the third gift this month."
"Offering favors for no reason." The one on the right, "Bian," sneered, his voice filled with disdain, as if mocking the Fire Crow Clan's hypocrisy. "Their fire crystal mines have been depleted in recent years, so why are they being so generous?"
The middle head, "Ming," closed its eyes and pondered for a moment, as if searching for light in the darkness. "The messenger of the Lava Giant secretly visited last night and held a secret meeting with the Fire Raven Clan at the crater until dawn."
Xuanluo, the Trinity, was plagued by worries that clung to his heart like vines, refusing to leave—unsolicited kindness was either a sign of treachery or theft!
This time, I'm afraid...
Xuanluo stepped out of the council cave and looked down at the Three-Headed Kingdom Market below the mountain—the only universally recognized neutral trading place in the Three Realms.
The market was exceptionally lively today, with merchants, travelers, and pilgrims from all three regions flocking to it.
Amidst the bustling crowd, the Fire Raven Clan of the Crimson Flame Domain stood out conspicuously.
They had red hair and red eyes, and their skin glowed with a faint firelight, as if they were one with the flames.
The Fire Ravens are tall with well-defined muscles, exuding a powerful and fiery aura.
Their clothing is usually predominantly red, embroidered with flame patterns, which complements their skin tone and enhances their unique charm.
The Fire Raven tribe is known for its passionate, outgoing, and energetic nature.
They are confident and arrogant, and have a very high sense of self-worth regarding their strength and status.
As the young master of the Fire Crow Clan, Yan Shuo displayed this arrogance to the fullest extent.
He arrogantly surveyed the surrounding stalls, as if inspecting his own territory.
His eyes shone with determination and resolve, as if nothing could stand in his way.
Behind him followed four guards, whose auras were equally intense, forming a powerful presence with Yan Shuo.
These guards were loyal and brave, always ready to serve their master.
The warmth of the Fire Raven people is also reflected in their way of communicating.
They spoke loudly, laughed heartily, and made no attempt to hide their emotions.
They enjoy socializing and are good at expressing their thoughts and opinions.
However, this enthusiasm may also make them appear too impulsive and reckless at times.
At the same time, the Wushan region's team, like a pure white cloud, drifted down to the west side of the market.
Their figures were light and graceful, like fairies dancing, a stark contrast to the flamboyant nature of the Fire Raven Clan.
The group of seven from Wushan were all dressed in plain white robes and their faces were covered with light veils, like mysterious ghosts, moving among the crowd.
Leading the group was Yun Li, the Left Envoy under the Goddess.
It is said that Yun Li is already eight hundred years old, yet she is still as delicate and beautiful as a young girl in her late teens.
Yun Li walked straight to the sacrificial hall of the Three-Headed Kingdom, where the leaves of the "Indestructible Wood" left over from the previous Sacred Wood Festivals were enshrined. They were as thin as cicada wings, yet indestructible.
These leaves are dark gold at room temperature, resembling a sleeping dragon, but they instantly awaken when exposed to fire, becoming as transparent as crystal and remaining intact for thousands of years.
"Please inform the Xuanluo Clan Chief that there is something to discuss in the Wushan Region." Yun Li's voice was clear and cold, like jade striking each other, crisp and melodious, like heavenly music.
Xuan Luo quickly appeared, his six arms like nimble snakes, crossed in front of his chest, performing a universal salute used by the three realms, his movements elegant and solemn: "Left Envoy, you have come from afar, I apologize for not greeting you properly."
“No need for formalities.” Yun Li got straight to the point. “Three days ago, the Heavenly Emperor’s Divine Medicine moved on its own without any wind, as if it were being drawn by a mysterious force, pointing towards the direction of Mount Buting.”
Yun Li paused for a moment after saying this. Seeing that Xuan Luo was listening attentively, she continued with the key point: "The goddess deduced the secrets of heaven and discovered that the aura of the Undying Wood is like a restless flame. This year, the leaves may hold unforeseen changes."
"variable?"
Xuan Luo's eyes narrowed slightly, and he couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
“The ‘Eternal Wood’ grows in the fiery volcano, absorbing the essence of the earth’s fire for a thousand years. It grows seven leaves every hundred years, and new leaves grow when the leaves fall, which is a symbol of the balance of heaven and earth.”
Yun Li's voice flowed slowly, like a babbling brook, "But the unusual movement of the divine medicine foreshadows that the balance will shatter like a fragile veil. Someone wants to seize the origin of the 'Eternal Wood.' If they succeed, the Crimson Flame Volcano will erupt like a raging beast, and its power will affect the three realms."
Xuan Luo's three heads simultaneously gasped.
The roots of the "Emberless Wood" are like giants deeply rooted in a volcano, and it is they that have suppressed the raging subterranean fire.
If someone were to damage its root system in an attempt to seize its source, the consequences would be unimaginable, like a time bomb that could trigger a disaster at any moment.
"The Fire Raven Clan," the three heads said in unison.
“Not only that.” Yun Li shook her head gently. “The Lava Giants and the Fire Raven Clan have formed an alliance. They are like greedy demons, able to penetrate deep into the heart of the volcano and approach the roots of the ‘Emberwood.’ But with them alone, it’s like ants trying to shake a tree; they cannot break through the natural protection of the ‘Emberwood.’”
"Who else?"
"This is the purpose of my visit." Yun Li's gaze was like sharp lightning, piercing through the darkness. "I ask Clan Chief Xuan Luo to pay extra attention to any unusual activity around the 'Eternal Wood' during the Divine Wood Festival, especially... the people from the Wind Spirit Domain."
