Chapter 204 Unusual Movements in the Northern Border
Su Muyao thought to herself, if she knew these things, she might know whether the dream was real or not.

Perhaps they will also learn the secrets of those men in black robes.

Most importantly, it allows me to learn about Hana Rinya's background.

Only by understanding one's background and these things can one more clearly understand the motives of those people.

The head of the Hua family shook his head and said, "I don't know either. Master always returns through special methods."

Su Muyao asked, "Then how do you know he is your master?"

The head of the Hua family placed his hand on his heart. "Because of the master-servant contract, we can sense each other automatically. Also, the master's bloodline power is pure and strong, so we will unconsciously obey his commands. In addition, the master came once when he was a child, so we recognize him."

Knowing the doubts in Su Muyao's mind, the head of the Hua family took the initiative to explain: "These are rules and regulations passed down from our ancestors."

"We are a family of servants from the Red Fox clan. We migrated to this land a long time ago for some unknown reason and have lived here ever since. Embroidery is a skill that we have passed down from our ancestors."

"Because since our ancestors, our clan has had a tradition of sacrificial rites, and we have to wear sacrificial clothes. Therefore, the ability to embroider and make clothes is an essential skill for our clan."

"However, Jose has been interested in these things since he was a child, and he was able to develop new embroidery methods on his own, making more beautiful clothes."

As he spoke, the head of the Hua family sighed. They knew that this was probably why they had attracted the covetousness of the head of the Xu family.

Listening to these words, Su Muyao seemed to be deep in thought. She also thought of the dress that Hua Linye had made for her, which was particularly luxurious. She asked, "Grandparents, can we go and take a look at the place of worship?"

“I think if the sacrificial tradition was passed down from our ancestors, we should be able to learn something through the sacrificial rites.”

The head of the Hua family said without hesitation, "Alright, I'll take you there right away."

The Hua family's ancestral worship ceremony is not held in the village, but in a valley behind the mountain.

The surrounding vegetation is lush and green, but a bluestone road has been built in the very center.

They walked along the bluestone path, winding their way up the mountain.

Along the way, Su Muyao discovered many unique local crops, including many Sichuan pepper trees and chili pepper trees.

There are also some medicinal herbs that are not found in the North.

The climate here is hot and humid, which is more suitable for the growth of many medicinal herbs.

Upon seeing these, Su Muyao's expression shifted, and her eyes shone brightly. "There are lychees here too?"

The head of the Hua family nodded and explained, "Yes, there are. There's a large area of ​​lychee trees at the foot of this mountain."

"You've come at the wrong time. If you had come in the summer, you would have had fresh lychees to eat."

Su Muyao asked, "Can we sell lychees?"

The head of the Hua family shook his head and said, "Lychees don't keep well. They can only be kept for a day or two after being picked, so they can't be sold. Most of the locals grow lychee trees and can be self-sufficient, so they don't buy lychees much."

This area is located in the southwest region, with a hot and humid climate. It doesn't snow or freeze in winter, so there's no way to dig cellars to store ice for use in spring and summer.

Su Muyao seemed to be deep in thought. They needed to find a way for the Hua family to make a living. It wasn't a solution to keep doing embroidery and fabric business and have to deal with the suppression by the Xu family.

The Hua family also needs to survive; they can't stay in their isolated corner forever.

Moreover, the head of the Xu family is no pushover; he might come looking for trouble with the Hua family again at any time. It would be best to resolve the Xu family's issues once and for all.

After walking for a while, the head of the Hua family pointed ahead and said, "We'll be there soon."

Su Muyao looked ahead and saw a sacrificial altar. In the very center of the altar was a tall, ancient tree with lush foliage.

Many red ribbons were tied to the trees.

The head of the Hua family explained, "The sacrifice will be performed under this ancient tree."

The surrounding area was spacious, indeed suitable for many people to perform sacrifices. There was also a cave at the cliff edge of the nearby valley. After the Hua family head led Su Muyao inside, Su Muyao lit a torch and saw some murals on the walls.

The head of the Hua family said, "These are murals carved by our ancestors. They said they wanted to record the sacrificial dances and traditions so that future generations wouldn't forget them."

"Even if my Hua family has forgotten something, we can never forget our ancestral rites."

Su Muyao discovered that these murals were actually colored murals, painted with great realism, and the sacrificial attire was even more luxurious and beautiful, with sacrificial dance steps also depicted.

Looking at these images, for some reason, a sacrificial scene seemed to automatically flash through Su Muyao's mind, these lights and shadows passing by in an instant.

She wanted to uncover the secrets behind it, but she couldn't figure it out.

But then a sudden thought flashed through Su Muyao's mind. She remembered seeing that person from the depths of her memory drawing talismans in a dream, and hearing her say some things.

She then learned that there was another secret method in this world, namely the method of traversing time.

She uses array formations and her own blood and spiritual energy to see some things that happened in the past, but she can't use this secret technique yet because her supernatural power is not strong enough.

Even so, she could feel that the spiritual energy in this sacrificial site was more abundant than in other places.

Xiao Jihan and the others also noticed this: "The spiritual energy here is very abundant."

Wen Nanxi looked at the ancient tree used for sacrifices and said, "It seems to be related to this ancient tree. This ancient tree doesn't seem to be a tree from our continent."

The head of the Hua family explained, "This is the clan tree that our ancestors migrated from our homeland when they moved here."

“It came with us, and even the soil underneath is different from other places.”

"Only our clansmen can enter to perform the sacrifice. Outsiders cannot find this place, so no one has noticed anything unusual about it."

Su Muyao went forward to take a look and found that the soil under the ancient tree also had a strong spiritual aura, and the soil was different from the soil in their Beast World Continent.

Su Muyao already had a guess in her mind, "So, the place where your ancestors and even Lin Ye's biological grandfather lived must be a place with abundant spiritual energy."

"So much so that even the ancient tree and the soil beneath it have a different kind of spiritual energy."

When Su Muyao placed her hand on the soil, she felt as if some realm in her mind was loosening.

At the same time, she seemed to sense something and quickly turned her head to look in the direction of the North.

This is the southwest direction.

"what happened?"

Has something happened in the North?

Just now, an indescribable feeling welled up in her heart.

Wen Nanxi's expression suddenly changed.

He used his supernatural abilities to create a protective barrier at home before he went out.

But he just discovered that the protective barrier had been breached, "It seems like something happened at home."

"The protective barrier has been breached."

"The power to destroy the protective barrier is very strong, and it has a dark aura."

Upon hearing this, Hua Linye's expression changed drastically. "I've heard that when the snow season arrives in the Northern Territory, it's easy to be attacked by mutated beasts and dark orcs."

Su Muyao immediately thought of Yun Qinglan's mother's death. Back then, the entire Northern Territory was attacked by the Dark Beastmen, which is why Yun Qinglan's mother sacrificed herself.

Her gaze suddenly turned serious. "We need to go back immediately."
