That day, after Lu Chen returned to the Flying Goose Platform, he went to the edge of the cliff and looked at the vast sea of clouds and the magnificent world. He sat alone for a long time. It was not until the sky turned dark and the moon rose that the moonlight shone on his body, drawing out a lonely shadow on the ground behind him.
…
Similarly, the moonlight shone on the depths of the Kunlun mountain range, on the four strange peaks between the clouds in the sky. On one of the Winter Peaks, snow still danced in the sky. Two figures stood side by side on the mountain path under the moonlight. They were the Headmaster of Kunlun, Reverend Idle Month, and Zhuo Xian.
Reverend Idle Month did not look too good, and his expression was somewhat grim. From time to time, he would raise his head to look at the top of the Winter Peak. At the peak of the mountain, the howling snowstorm was wrapped into a ball. It was the cave where the legendary Hakushin Jinkun cultivated.
"When will Master come out to see me?" Reverend Idle Month asked Zhuo Xian.
Zhuo Xian looked embarrassed. "Senior Martial Brother, I really can't answer you. Master's closed-door cultivation is a big matter. How can I ask how long it will take?"
Idle Month snorted. A trace of anxiety flashed across his face. He paced back and forth on the mountain path, looking a little upset.
Zhuo Xian advised him, "Senior Martial Brother, don't be too anxious. It's just Qiandeng, Mingzhu, and a few others making a fuss. Can they really overturn the sky? Besides, no matter how bad the situation is, isn't Master still here? When the time comes, as long as Master appears, he will be able to intimidate everyone. I'm sure they won't dare to say another word. "
Idle Month nodded. It was obvious that he had the same thought in his heart. However, he quickly sighed and said, "Junior Martial Brother, what you said is not without reason. However, I still feel that something is not quite right this time. I want to discuss it with Master. Moreover, you see, for the past few years, Master has always attended every Sect Council meeting. If you suddenly don't attend this year, coupled with those Evil Sect killings, I'm afraid it will cause people to gossip and deliberately sow discord between our Master and disciple relationship. "
Zhuo Xian was silent. He and Reverend Idle Month had been brothers for many years. They were both disciples of Hakushin Jinkun. Of course, he understood why Reverend Idle Month was so agitated. Back then, when the Kunlun Party was deciding on the next leader, to be honest, among the Yuanying Zhenren, Zhenren Idle Month was considered an outstanding figure, but he was not at the stage where he could look down on the others. There were at least five or six other Yuanying Zhenren whose cultivation and strength were not weaker than his, and there were even one or two who were obviously better than him.
But in the end, the one who became the Kunlun Party's Sect Leader was still Idle Month. The biggest reason for this, everyone knew, was their common Master, Hakushin Jinkun.
All these years, Reverend Idle Month was actually doing quite well in the position of Sect Leader. He was diligent and conscientious but he could not convince the masses. There was never a lack of people who said strange things in the open and in the dark.
This time, the incident of the Devil Cult killing people was getting bigger and bigger, and the criticism of Xian Yue Zhenren was getting louder and louder in the sect. It was no wonder that Xian Yue Zhenren was so angry and restless. In a few days' time, it would be the annual Sect Council Meeting. Almost all the important figures in the Kunlun Party would be present. At that time, it was almost expected that the Evil Sect killings would be brought up again. Then the doubts about Reverend Idle Month would also be raised.
In front of all the important figures in the Sect, of course Reverend Idle Month could not afford to lose his face. He felt that since ancient times, there had never been a Sect Leader of the Kunlun Party who would suffer such humiliation. However, if it was like the previous years, when Hakushin Jinkun attended and sat in the Tian Kun Peak's Zhengyang Hall, no matter which faction of people wanted to talk nonsense, it would depend on whether they had the guts to do so or not.
However, as early as a few months ago, Hakushin Jinkun had told the both of them that he might not want to attend the Sect Council Meeting this year. Firstly, he really did not have anything important to attend. He was just there to help his disciple. Secondly, everyone felt that Reverend Idle Month had done a good job in the position of Sect Leader. His position was more or less stable. Therefore, he was too lazy to make the trip and simply went into closed-door cultivation.
That being said, it was not wrong, but no one expected that during this period of time, the incident of the Devil Cult would suddenly happen, causing a storm in Kunlun Sect, from top to bottom, it was restless. Those Yuanying Stage Daoist Masters seemed to have found an excuse to mock and ridicule Kunlun Sect nonstop.
Under such circumstances, Reverend Idle Month felt that it was better to invite her master to attend the Sect Council Meeting again. Therefore, she came to the Winter Peak to ask for her master's help. However, according to Zhuo Xian, Hakushin Jinkun had been in closed-door cultivation for many days.
The both of them did not dare to disturb Hakushin Jinkun's quiet cultivation. They could only wait on the mountain path. However, after waiting for a long time, there was still no sign of Hakushin Jinkun coming out.
Reverend Idle Month was anxious. Suddenly, she said to Zhuo Xian, "Junior Brother, I have many trivial matters to attend to in the Sect. I am very busy and rarely come here. Could it be that now that Master is in closed-door cultivation, even you can't contact him at all? "
Zhuo Xian smiled bitterly and said, "Senior Brother, to be honest, I really can't contact Master now. But if you are really anxious … "He paused for a moment, then lowered his voice and said softly," Perhaps Junior Sister has a way? "
"Little Junior Sister White Lotus?" Reverend Idle Month was stunned. "What way does she have?"
Zhuo Xian said, "Master only accepted her as his last disciple when he was old. In addition, she is a rare five-pillar talent. Naturally, he loves her deeply. Aside from instructing her wholeheartedly when he has free time, he has also handed the transcendent artifact, the 'Wind Speech Compass', to Junior Sister White Lotus. If there's an emergency, you can ask Junior Sister to use the Wind Speech Compass, and perhaps you can contact Master.
Reverend Idle Month was suddenly enlightened. He clapped his hands and said, "That's right. How could I forget about this? Junior Brother, quickly bring me to Little Junior Sister's cave abode. I'll ask her to contact Master for me. "
Zhuo Xian was a little hesitant. He looked at the sky and said, "Senior Brother, isn't it too late now?"
Zhuo Xian looked at the night sky. Indeed, it was already late at night. However, he quickly shook his head and said, "It's urgent. Let's settle it as soon as possible. Junior Brother, lead the way. I'll talk to Little Junior Sister."
Zhuo Xian nodded and said, "Alright. Senior Brother, follow me."
The two of them walked down the mountain path again. After 15 minutes, they arrived in front of the two cave abodes. Zhuo Xian walked over and knocked on the door before shouting loudly.
The stone door of the cave abode did not move at all.
Zhuo Xian frowned and called a few more times, but there was still no response.
Reverend Idle Month was a little surprised. He walked over and asked, "Is it not in the cave abode?"
Zhuo Xian shook his head. "It shouldn't be. It's so late. If I go out, I'll be breaking the sect rules! I'll call again. Maybe it's a little girl who is too sleepy to hear. "
As he spoke, he raised his hand again and knocked on the door while shouting. He did this for a while, but the cave abode was still tightly shut. There was no response.
Zhuo Xian turned around and looked at Reverend Idle Month. At that moment, both of them had a question in their minds at the same time. "It's so late. Where could the little girl have gone?"
…
The moon shone brightly in the dark night, shining on Kunlun Mountain in the shadows. On the dark mountain path, a little girl was walking contentedly. For someone of her age to walk on an empty mountain path in the dark and cold night, it was very strange no matter how one looked at it.
This little girl was, of course, White Lotus. Her beautiful face was calm. Looking at the direction she was walking in, it was towards Flying Goose Platform.
Her clothes fluttered in the night wind, and the high collar on her neck could be seen from time to time. That was to cover up some of the wounds. Although they were basically under control, the injuries that Lu Chen had inflicted on her that day had left a very strange wound on her neck. In the end, it still hadn't completely healed.
However, for some reason, White Lotus did not seem to have too much hatred for the person called Lu Chen. This was somewhat unusual for her, who had been arrogant since she was young. Even she was a little surprised.
Perhaps it was because although that person was cunning and vicious, she did not have to pretend in front of him. She could say whatever she wanted and do whatever she wanted. This was really very satisfying and comfortable.
Oh, there was also that black dog.
In fact, the Blood Food Secret Method was not as important as she said it was. After all, she had accidentally learned it when she was young. It was not a secret method unique to her. If she really did not care about it, then she would not care about it.
Anyway, she would go and bother him first. Looking at the helpless and depressed expression of the person called Lu Chen, it was still very pleasing.
White Lotus thought of this in her heart. A smile appeared at the corner of her mouth. She quickened her pace and walked towards Flying Goose Platform. Just as she was walking, her expression suddenly stiffened and her footsteps immediately came to a halt.
A trace of surprise and caution flashed across her eyes. At the same time, in a dark corner in front of her, three rays of green light suddenly emerged from the darkness.
They were like dark green flames.
They were like three eyeballs embedded in a strange and vicious face.
A dark aura gushed out from that corner. White Lotus frowned slightly and took a step back. Then, she stared in that direction with a trace of vigilance on her face.
The green flames swayed slowly and gradually approached. White Lotus quickly saw that it was a three-eyed monster shaped like a small snake. It was baring its teeth at her, revealing its terrifying fangs. The three green lights were three strange green eyes that were growing on the head of that strange creature.
"Hiss hiss hiss hiss hiss …" A strange sound came from the front.
A trace of uneasiness flashed across White Lotus's heart. She stared at it with her guard up. But at this moment, she suddenly discovered something strange. The three-eyed, green-eyed strange insect was staring at her, but it did not look at her face, her eyes, her hands or her feet. The three-eyed strange insect's eyes were staring at her neck the whole time!
The neck that was wrapped by the collar and had an unhealed wound!
