"Muyuan?" Lu Chen frowned slightly. After pondering for a moment, he asked with a strange look in his eyes, "The one from the Tiezhi branch?"
Old Ma nodded and said, "That's right. That old man is one of the four Yuanying Zhenren of the Tiezhi branch of the Kunlun Party. He's also recognized as the strongest in Taoism and Divine Powers. It's not an exaggeration to say that he's the leader of the Tiezhi branch."
Lu Chen nodded and said, "What about Su Qingjun herself?"
Old Ma said, "She's very outstanding. She's extremely talented. It's said that she's one of the top four pillars. She can be said to be very gifted. Her progress in Taoism is very fast and she's worthy of the word 'genius'. She's only 22 years old, but she's already at the peak of the Foundational State. Among the young Foundational State disciples of the Kunlun Party, there are about a dozen of them who've reached the peak of the Jin Dan state and are only one step away. But the most famous ones are Su Qingjun, He Yi, Song Huaisong, and Feng Yu. "
At this point, Old Ma paused and looked at Lu Chen. "At such a young age, you are only one step away from the Golden Core Realm. With this kind of strength and talent, the difference between you and an ordinary Foundation Realm disciple is like heaven and earth. I don't need to say more, right?"
Lu Chen smiled and said, "If she's lucky enough, she might have a chance to peek into the Yuanying state in the future."
"Yes, becoming a Zhenren …" Old Ma sighed with some emotion. He then said to Lu Chen seriously, "Since you know it, don't think too much, okay? That girl has no grudge against you. She didn't really hurt you in the Land of Chaos. You don't have to go against such a proud girl, do you? "
Lu Chen's expression didn't change. It seemed that he didn't take this matter to heart. He said casually, "I don't plan to do anything to her. I'm just curious."
Old Ma stared at him for a moment, then snorted and said, "That's not necessarily the case. You're full of evil tricks, sinister and cunning. Who knows what you'll do later? Let me tell you, although Kunlun's iron branch is weak, there are still four Yuanying Zhenren sitting there. A genius disciple like Su Qingjun would have a limitless future. Tie Zhi would definitely protect her like a precious treasure. Don't look for trouble. "
"Pei!" Lu Chen spat and said, "I came to Kunlun Mountain for the sake of the common people of the world, the righteous path of life, yet I had no choice but to risk my own safety to do such a dangerous thing. Why do you, this servant, always regard me as someone who is worse than the Devil Cult?"
Old Ma said seriously, "You're right, that's the truth …"
As he said this, he suddenly lowered his head to avoid a stool that flew towards him. Then he looked around and smiled, "Oh yes, where's Atsu? Why don't I see it?"
"I just brought a bag of meat bones for it. It's chewing on it in the backyard." Lu Chen said.
"This black dog's appetite seems to be very big. It's eating me poor. Hurry up and bring it up the mountain."
"Wait for another two months. I'm not familiar with it yet." Lu Chen said casually, "Oh yes, there's one more thing. Help me check it out. It's about the girl from the Yi family I told you about last time."
As he said this, Lu Chen told Old Ma about the scene he saw at the spiritual field in Shipan Valley. In the end, he frowned and said, "He Gang didn't die. And looking at Yi Xin, she seems to be afraid of him. I'm afraid there's something strange about it."
"Okay, leave it to me," Old Ma said with a smile.
Lu Chen stood up, looked at the sky, and said, "Alright, I'm not going to talk to you anymore. I'm going back to the mountain."
Old Ma nodded and watched as Lu Chen walked to the door. Just as he was about to step over the threshold, Old Ma suddenly said, "There's something you might not know. This year, the Kunlun Party's Immortal Appraisal Conference had a great harvest. The Kunlun Party had recruited many talented Three Pillars and even Four Pillars. However, there's one thing that the Kunlun Party suppressed."
Lu Chen's body trembled slightly. He turned to look at Old Ma.
Old Ma looked straight into his eyes. For some reason, there was a complicated and incomprehensible light in his eyes. He said softly, "I heard that during the conference, they found a rare, one in a million peerless genius. That person had all five elements, and there were five pillars on the Sea of Qi."
Lu Chen's expression changed slightly. It seemed that even a calm person like him was startled after hearing about this matter. But very quickly, a trace of a smile appeared on his face.
A self-deprecating smile appeared on his face.
"Amazing … a Five Pillars genius!" He murmured, then raised his head to look at the sky. He said lightly, "Just like me, isn't it?"
Old Ma was silent.
…
It was already evening when he returned to the mountain. When Lu Chen walked through the mountain gate and walked along the mountain path to his residence at the foot of Shipan Mountain, the sky gradually darkened.
Night came.
At night, Kunlun Mountain was still majestic, but it was less majestic than during the day, and more distant and deep in the night. Each mountain peak was like a silent giant, quietly standing in the darkness, quietly watching Lu Chen walk between the mountains.
Unknowingly, there was no one else on the mountain path. Only Lu Chen walked alone.
The night was somewhat desolate, and the mountain wind was somewhat cold. It whistled past, and the faint starlight shone on the ground. One could see the swaying shadows, like dancing demons and ghosts.
There was still some time before the curfew. Lu Chen looked at the night sky and expressionlessly walked on this dark road. Gradually, even he himself seemed to blend into it, becoming a part of those terrifying shadows.
When it was too quiet, one's thoughts would spread out, making one's thoughts seem to be more than usual. As Lu Chen walked, he suddenly thought of the small village that he had lived in for ten years, and the beautiful girl who was already sleeping by the Dragon Lake on Tea Mountain.
At this time, would there be a cold wind blowing by the Dragon Lake? Maybe she would also feel a little cold, because she was afraid of the cold before …
Lu Chen suddenly shook his head, freeing himself from these thoughts, and then continued walking. The night was still cold, and then he thought of the day before they parted, the strange look in Old Ma's eyes when he looked at him.
Lu Chen knew what Old Ma meant. Although that fatty was not a good person, but for so many years, he was the person that he trusted the most. He knew that Old Ma meant well, Old Ma actually felt that it was not worth it for him, and somewhat regretted it.
However, some words, could not be said to anyone, whether it was him or Old Ma, or perhaps everyone actually understood in their hearts... if it was not good enough, how could it be used as a successful bait? If it was not an exceptional talent, how would the Evil Sect Elder, that kind of person, be interested in it?
Sacrifice?
Perhaps only that big fatty, who was always hidden in the depths of the light, was the truly ruthless and ruthless person.
The mountain breeze was faint, blowing past his clothes, as if there was a bone chilling cold.
Lu Chen gently pulled his clothes, thinking that if there was a chance in the future, he should go back to the Dragon Lake on Tea Mountain to take a look, add more soil for Dingdang's grave, and plant more trees beside it.
While he was thinking of this, Lu Chen's body suddenly stopped, his footsteps abruptly stopped!
In the depths of the winding mountain path hidden in the dark shadows, in the deep darkness, a soft, trembling whimper suddenly came from an unknown place. In this desolate and cold night, it sounded like the weeping of a night ghost, faintly coming over.
The shadows of the surrounding tall mountains, at this moment, seemed to suddenly cover down, making this section of the mountain path seem especially dark.
The night was deep, it was a desolate time.
