Elemental Light Mage

Chapter 443: Under Tiannv Mountain, Covered with Snow and Sand

"Search, wait, search, wait, search, wait, search..."

Qiao Shiyu was squatting under a tree in her garden, holding a flower in one hand and continuously pinching off a petal with the other hand to decide whether to take the initiative to find Xi Yeming.

"what are you doing?"

Seeing the scattered petals on the ground, Qiao Wutong asked about her haggard sister with disgust.

Qiao Shiyu waved her hand to dismiss her brother, "This has nothing to do with the child, just stay away."

Qiao Wutong, who was treated perfunctorily, had long been accustomed to her sister's attitude.

"Whatever you want, don't forget to find someone to clean the garden. I'm going to see off the Holy Will of Desire."

"Wait, what are you going to do?"

Qiao Shiyu grabbed the corner of her brother's clothes.

Qiao Wutong, who almost fell, protested: "What are you doing? You're going to miss the chance to see off the Holy Will of Desire!"

"You said you were going to see off Xi Yeming, the Saint of Desire? Where is he going?"

Qiao Wutong tried his best to let go of his sister's hand, "How should I know? This is news that I spent a lot of money to find out. Don't waste my time..."

Qiao Suyi, the second young master of the Qiao family, who happened to pass by, saw the fight between his sister and brother.

"Are there any normal children in this family except me?"

-

The light cocoon landed in a wilderness. As the light threads continued to peel off and be pulled out, Xi Yeming opened his eyes and looked at everything around him.

The cold sand and gravel blew on his face, and some of it even got into his eyes, blinding him.

"What are you doing?"

Fortunately, the wind only blew for a moment, otherwise Xi Yeming would not want to have to walk in the flying sand and rocks.

Tiannv Mountain is right in front of Xi Yeming. Although there is still some distance to the foot of the mountain, the eastern part of the entire mountain range is now in sight.

According to Angelina, there is a village below Mount Tiannv. Combined with what Torena and the others said, there should be livestock herders.

Xi Yeming used wind magic to blow himself up into the sky, then glided towards Tiannv Mountain.

"There is a village at the foot of Tiannv Mountain. I guess the "trial" has already begun when you step into the village. You must always pay attention to your actions to avoid trouble."

Angelina said so.

It was not until he saw smoke from cooking that Xi Yeming locked onto the location of the village. He rushed into the sky and then landed in the square in the center of the village.

Many children from the villagers who were playing there saw this scene and ran away shouting.

"The population is booming."

Judging from the distribution of the children, many of them are not from the same family, which is very indicative of the population in the village.

Several children pulled the adults to the place where they had just played, clamoring to meet Xi Yeming, the outsider.

The villagers were shocked to see outsiders entering the village. They thought it was just the child's nonsense. After all, anyone who could descend from the sky must be no ordinary person.

"Hello."

Xi Yeming greeted the villagers cordially, and his superior modeling made the villagers let down their guard.

"Hello," a man who looked more capable stepped forward and spoke to Xi Yeming, "Excuse me, what can I do for you...?"

Xi Yeming did not reveal his identity directly, "I wonder if you still remember the identities of the two people who came to the village to seek medicine."

"You, are you..." The man certainly remembered the identities of the two people who came here to seek medicine in the past, "Wait, silver hair!?"

"Ah, I haven't seen this kind of reaction in a long time."

"Are you the prince?"

"Well, I guess so," Xi Yeming said carelessly, "That's not the important thing. I'm here to ask for medicine. Could you please tell me how to get to the ancestral hall in my village?"

-

"When you get there, you must build good relationships with the villagers. At the very least, you must not make enemies. The founder of the trial must be watching you behind the scenes. If you are a vicious person, you will surely be rejected by the trial."

"How did you know?"

"Why do you think Father failed the trial?"

-

The man looked a little embarrassed. "Well, outsiders need the approval of the village chief before they can enter the ancestral hall. This has been the rule in our village for generations."

Xi Yeming could tell from the other person's expression that some "unpleasant" experience seemed to have happened in the past, and he could guess that it was caused by the emperor.

"I don't like to force people to do things. In this case, let the village chief make the decision."

The villagers were relieved by his rare generosity. If the emperor came in person and caused chaos again like in the past, no one would be able to bear it.

"Then I will take you, Your Highness, to the village chief's house."

The man led the way for Xi Yeming. Along the way, many villagers carried stones to the outskirts of the village.

"By the way, how is the village doing lately?"

There was still a short distance to the village chief's house, so Xi Yeming decided to get some clues from the villagers first.

"Your Highness, you came at a bad time. Recently, a giant scorpion monster has appeared around the village and it always suddenly emerges from the ground to attack us."

"Huh? What's going on?"

The man told the story about the giant scorpion monster: "About a week ago, the giant scorpion monster appeared in the nearby mountains. Since monsters often migrate around here, we didn't pay much attention to it. It wasn't until it rushed towards the village that we realized something was wrong."

"Won't you expel it?"

"We were planning to drive it away at first, but right after we started fighting we realized this scorpion was unusual. We couldn't drive it away so we built a stone wall as a defense to protect our house and sheepfold."

Hearing this, Xi Yeming had already had the idea of ​​helping the villagers drive away the giant scorpion, so he asked, "Does the scorpion have any conspicuous features?"

"To be honest, that scorpion is more like a living gem. It's shiny all over, and even its shell is much harder than ordinary stones."

"Is it the Crystal Scorpion genus...?"

Fortunately, Xi Yeming was good at magical biology and was able to identify the species of the giant scorpion with just a few words.

But unfortunately, the crystal scorpion monsters have a high resistance to elemental magic due to their natural crystal shells, so this wave was a wrong dish.

However, no matter how strong a creature is, it has weaknesses. The eyes and mouthparts of the crystal scorpion are the most vulnerable parts of the body. As long as you aim there, you don't have to worry too much about combat.

Before they knew it, they had arrived at the village chief's house. The man entered the courtyard and shouted, "Village chief, guests are coming!"

There was a rustling sound in the room, and soon the wooden door was pushed open from the inside, and a strong-looking old man with a white beard walked out.

Tiannu Mountain

Emperor Neuhac and Princess Angelina had both come to seek the legendary elixir for the Queen, but both were eliminated after just passing the first stage of the magic trial for their own reasons, and were blocked by unknown magic and were never allowed to enter the ancestral hall again.
