The Northern Sword God
In the Northwest Wu Yi Tribe again
ARC 7'S. The World of Black Magic
The young man was wearing a tunic or more correctly called a gray robe, which fluttered in the night wind. He sat quietly in the medley atop a spirit beast called the Phoenix, the highest ranked spirit beast among all spirit beasts that people had ever seen.
The world that was enveloped in the darkness of the night was seen just rustling through quickly, the sound of the night wind roaring loudly in his ears. It doesn't look anything as wide as the eye can see, it's dark and just the stars are like rolling fast.
Nevertheless, the young man knew that underneath them were rows and rows of old pine forests, whose sound of wind was clearly heard passing through the leaves like a long needle, sounding like a strange singing voice.
He is currently on his way to the West Bank. However, in accordance with his promises, he felt obliged to meet the people of the Wu Yi tribe and the Qilin Clan. All that he did was because at that time, he had promised to protect the Wu Yi Tribe, to the ancient Qilin spirit in an ancient relic.
A long time flying...
"It won't be too long for me to arrive in the Northwest Region" the young man murmured.
"Come faster my Phoenix. I have to rush to the West after this" Sima Yong said to the prodigy. The phoenix then increased its speed, its wings flapped wide.
The push of pure air Qi flowed through the spread out wings, deeply felt by Sima Yong as the Phoenix moved fifty spears like teleportation alone. Sima Yong smiled broadly after the Phoenix accelerated its flight.
"Stop !"
"Tell me who you are and your purpose. You have violated the border provisions and have entered the forbidden area of the Wu Yi Tribe. Turn around, or death will be your part"
A man floated in a haunted manner, blocking the flight that had been close to the Wu Yi Tribe. Join hovering beside the haunted man, five experts consisting of men and women.
All the experts who blocked his path had been holding onto the sword hilt, ready to draw the sword. Sima Yong recognized that one of the young people was Orhideya. While the haunted man was Patriarch Xie Sying. He also recognized one old woman, hovering horribly with her kamit-comat mouth. Looks like she's a witch who's been chanting spells. That is Aqildi Ayel, the shaman of the Wu Yi Tribe.
"Patriak Xie !
Orhideya Sdri !
Shaman Aqildi Ayel !
its me. Sima Yong !
Don't you all recognize me anymore" Sima Yong said. He jumped off the Phoenix's back and floated flying close to the group of people
"Mr Sima Yong? What are you doing in the middle of the night like this?" said Patriarch Xie Sying.
But when Patriarch Xie Sying was about to take a step closer and greet Sima Yong, Aqildi Ayel the shaman was seen restraining the movements of Patriarch Xie.
"Hold !
Don't be rash first, Patriarch. We don't know yet whether he is the real Mr Sima Yong, or whether he is the Orchlockh Monster" Aqildi Ayel said.
Patriarch Xie's eyes looked like they were reminded of something. He immediately floated backwards. He said,
"If you're not an Orchlok Monster, try to explain one of my questions. And if you can't answer my question, it already explains that you're an Orchlockh magic monster. And death is your part" said Patriarch Xie.
The sentence was followed by the sound of a sword rustling, coming out of the scabbard, glittering in the light of the stars.
"Trs. Sima Yong had been to our Wu Yi Tribe, when it happened the marriage of someone member of our Wu Yi Tribe.
Can you explain who was married at the time?" patriarch Xie's voice sounded increasingly haughty.
The swords had been pointed at him, while Aqildi Ayel had grasped the magic powder books, ready to cast them along with the spells.
Sima Yong was astonished by such a question. Of course he had been to the Wu Yi Tribe a few years ago with Ye Bing Qing, Fei Ma and his followers. They were then in custody not to leave the Wu Yi Tribe because they had to enliven the wedding party of a noble.
"Of course I remember. That was the wedding feast of the Nobles, the brother of Orhideya named Koldigir. Koldigir was married to a woman named Kemeyu"
"Ah... Right it is Mr Sima Yong" Patriarch Xie said along with the others. Swords and magic powders were put back into place.
Hurriedly they all approached and embraced Sima Yong. The faces of those people changed from depressed looks, now to full of joyful light, with that unexpected encounter.
"Let's go downstairs, and have a conversation in our Wu Yi Tribe tents. Right now, it is not safe to linger outside the camp, especially in times of dark and lonely nights like this" Patriarch Xie Sying spoke, but a tone of fear was clearly read.
Sima Yong noticed, those six Wu Yi Tribe experts initially looked also somewhat timid with him. After all, what is that creature called Orchlokh? For now he doesn't dispute that just yet. He promised to ask when they would be in the patriarchal camp.
******
Inside Patriarch Xia's warm camp, Orhideya threw a few pieces of dry wood, thus adding warmth. A young man came to hand out a brandy of a beer-like drink that had just been warmed up, which was pleasant when it entered the stomach on that cold night.
Phoenix, who had come with Sima Yong, entered the camp. The thing is, when the spirit animal bends its legs, folds its wings and makes a curled position, the Phoenix turns to be as big as a big dog.
Then the talk began, too,
"Mr Yong, what made you visit the Wu Yi Tribe on a lonely night like this to the Northwest here? Don't you know, right now the situation along the Northwest prairie to the West is not safe at all" Patriarch Xie asked. He looks a little worried.
"ahhhhh.. The truth is I'm going to head to the West Bank first. But when I think of these Wu Yi Tribe brothers, then I stopped by for a moment to look at your situation" Sima Yong replied. Of course everyone was very happy when they found out that the young boy, in particular, had come to watch and see their situation.
Although it was midnight, the dish was immediately removed, but was limited to dry bread and dried fruits only. Patriarch Xie still clearly remembered, the youngster did not eat any lifeless items.
When the impromptu banquet was over, Sima Yong slowly asked a question, which weighed on his heart.
"May I ask you a few questions?" ask Sima Yong.
"of course. Please Mr. Yong ask a question"
"From the beginning, I heard you mention something that seemed evil named Orchlockh. Can I give you an explanation? What kind of creature is Orchlockh?" sima Yong asked curiously.
Instantly the room in the camp became quiet. The joyous atmosphere that had once filled Patriarch Xie's camp, turned drastically desolate like a grave.
Long quiet, just slowly Patriarch Xie spoke up. His face looked pale as he explained timidly.
"Actually it is not only Orchlockh who is the only scourge on this plain. There is another type of magical creature called Chuluu.
These two races of creatures have long disappeared in the Western plains there, buried together in the land where the damned, hundreds of years ago. However, these days the two creatures are back on the loose, out of their cages in the cursed land there. Even later the ferocious creatures penetrated all the way to the Northwest in this Wu Yi Tribe" silent for a moment.
"Orchlock is a magical creature that always anesthetizes and transforms into someone we know well. Then when we've been bewitched, he'll eat us alive.
Hundreds of people of our Wu Yi Tribe have died fooled that Orchlock. That's why, we're on tight guard at night" Patriarch Xie said.
"While the Chuluu is a formless supernatural being, it does not give off an aura. Know that he has come near, sucked up all the happiness of people, and then devoured his soul. Only high soul power Master experts could see Chuluu's whereabouts" Patriarch Xie shuddered in horror.
"What's even more sinister, these damned creatures don't work when martial artists. There were news and rumors, that the experts in the west were there, even those who had cultivation in the SAINT realm even if SAGE was not careful, he said,
it would be easy to defeat that Chuuu. They dark monsters were immune to the attacks of this world sword master Jiang Hu" everyone shuddered in horror, then involuntarily sat down to docked, due to the strange and sinister feeling.
"It is only appropriate when you are on guard earlier, bring with you Shaman Aqldi Ayel" said Sima Yong.
