One flight of stairs, two flights of stairs, three flights of stairs. It was more like a tower than a tall building. Su Rongrong was tired after climbing three floors. She put the tray aside and sat on the stairs, panting. She couldn't help but curiously look behind her to the left. This was a very retro attic. What was amazing was that there was a huge palace on every floor. The palace's door was enshrouded in a fog of light. The material was something she had never seen before, and it was constantly changing. The color was ice white, and it was very cold. The next moment, it was orange yellow, and she could feel the smell of everything dying. It was very bleak. The next moment, it was orange gold, and the hot energy gave off a strong light, making her feel like she was in the heat. Then, it was green, and a lively vitality entered her heart, as if everything was reviving.
"It's rare for the young master to tell me the same thing three times, telling me not to open the door! But the more he told me, the more I want to see … I will just take a look, just one look … "She made up her mind, stood up, and walked towards the door. After observing, she found that although the changes of the door were not uniform, there was a cycle. For example, after the green, it must be orange gold, just like after spring, it must be summer.
"Does this door represent the rotation of the four seasons?" She opened the door with excitement, and the world in front of her suddenly opened up. She saw the vast grassland, as if to welcome her arrival, they all bent down and showed her a happy smile. She couldn't help but wander on the grassland, as if she wanted to become a part of it. A warm wind blew in her face, and she couldn't help but be intoxicated by the fragrance of the grass mixed with the soil. She couldn't help but take a step forward, but her collar was suddenly grabbed.
"It's really not beautiful. The ignorant are fearless, it's probably talking about you. "
When she heard the voice, she immediately turned around and made a face, "Young master, I know you will save me, so I'm not afraid at all. But young master, didn't you say that I can't open it? I opened it, and there's nothing special. Oh right, what will happen if I step in? "
Yan Shiyi didn't say anything, and just carried Su Rongrong up. Su Rongrong's expression suddenly changed. She saw a bright red light suddenly appear in the door, and the vast grassland suddenly turned into a hell of ashes.
"That was, that was close!" she said, frightened.
This building had twelve floors. At the top, it was also a small pavilion. Yan Shiyi went to the window and sat down. Su Rongrong took out the dishes on the tray and filled a bowl of soup for Yan Shiyi. Then, he went to open the window.
Hu!
A gust of wind blew in. She rubbed her eyes and leaned on the windowsill to look up. The starry sky above her head seemed to be right in front of her. When she looked down, she could vaguely see a huge floating island under the heavy clouds. She curled her lips and said, "Is this the Pillar of Heavens Mountains? It's known as the highest mountain in the Celestial World, but it doesn't look that amazing from this angle."
The demonic laughter slowly invaded the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths. Above was the Wuji Starry Sky, and below the starry sky were twelve floors. Below the twelve floors were countless layers of clouds. Below the clouds was the Pillar of Heavenly Sword Mountain. Deep inside the Heavenly Sword Hall, Feng Jiu, who was walking in a secret passage, suddenly looked up. He only saw the ceiling carved with special patterns. He stood quietly for a while, then suddenly turned around and walked back.
At the same time, in the Law Enforcement Court of the former Heavenly Sword Peak, Yang Qiusheng was talking with Chang Maochun under the ivory-white stone tablet that symbolized purity. Suddenly, he looked up. Chang Maochun said, "What's wrong?"
"Someone's spying."
"How is that possible? The Pillar of Heavens Mountains is surrounded by the sword array. If someone's spying, the sword array would have reacted long ago."
"Maybe I'm overthinking."
Yang Qiusheng smiled and looked away. He continued, "Junior Brother Chang, although we belong to different branches, our Sword-Bearing Lineage and your Technique Impartation Lineage have always had a good relationship. I'm afraid there might be some misunderstanding in the Law Enforcement Hall today."
Chang Maochun sneered in his heart, but he said calmly, "Senior Brother, don't say that. If there's any misunderstanding, just talk it out. However, it's the fortune of the Court Of Sword that the former patriarch, as the president of the Sword Holding Association, came from the Wang Family. However, you can't say that the Sword-Bearing Lineage and the Technique Impartation Lineage belong to the same lineage. If the chiefs of the Imperial Sword, Heart Sword, and Soul Sword hear this, it will really cause a misunderstanding. "
"Indeed. That's right. Then, Junior Brother Chang, why don't you name a price? "
"What price?"
"Junior Brother Chang, stop beating around the bush. If you're not willing to sell Feng Jiu's secret, why are you talking to me here?"
A mysterious smile gradually appeared on Chang Maochun's old face. "Senior Brother Yang, since we're going to talk it out, it's better to be frank. You blocked Yan Li's way out in the Law Enforcement Hall and put in a good word for him. It's nothing more than forcing my stupid disciple to fight to the death. In this way, Yan Li's innocence will not be cleared, and Feng Jiu will most likely lose the position of the patriarch's successor. Now that the patriarch is trapped by the Inner Demon, everyone in the sect knows about it. Your goal is to replace the patriarch, right? "
Yang Qiusheng said, "Yes."
Chang Maochun was a little surprised by the other party's frankness. He squinted and said, "I have two big questions. If you're willing to answer them, we can talk about cooperation. First, Feng Jiu is from the Sword God Villa, and the Sword God Villa and your Yanming Villa belong to the Sword Holding Association. This is also the condition for the former patriarch to pass the position to Junior Brother Shanhai — the successor of the patriarch must be from the Sword Holding Association. I don't understand why you want to ruin it. "
Yang Qiusheng said, "My surname is Yang."
"Oh?" Chang Maochun said.
Yang Qiusheng showed a pained expression, "I haven't been happy in the Wang family these years. Most importantly, Wang Langtai is not my biological son!"
Chang Maochun's mind was slightly shaken. At his level of cultivation, his mind was rarely shaken like this. The smile on his face gradually became subtle, "If that's the case, let's not ask the second question. Senior Brother Yang, don't you want to know my condition? My condition is to be the head of the Law Enforcement Department. At the same time, my eldest disciple, Xu Longxiang, will take over as the leader of the Thunder Department. "
Yang Qiusheng said, "Okay."
Chang Maochun was very satisfied with this "deal". The head of the Law Enforcement Department and the leader of the Thunder Department were enough for his branch to accumulate enough resources in a few decades to compete for the position of the patriarch. "Since we're going to do it, let's be thorough. We must remove Feng Jiu's position as the successor and take back the Nine Heavens Thunder. Senior Brother Yang, no, acting patriarch, let's discuss the details of the operation … "
After leaving the Heavenly Sword Hall, Feng Jiu came to a courtyard and knocked on the door of the master bedroom. "Qiuyu, it's me."
Yu Qiuyu opened the door and invited Feng Jiu to sit inside. He poured a cup of hot tea for him and then remained silent. He was used to being silent or indifferent. He didn't know what to say, so he didn't say a word.
Feng Jiu drank the tea and put down the cup. Yu Qiuyu noticed that his eldest brother's hand was very steady. The cup was not heavy, but it was not light for someone who was born with a broken hand. In the past, every time he held it, his hand would tremble a little. Yu Qiuyu thought it was the result of Feng Jiu's training, so he didn't say anything and was about to pour another cup.
"I'm not here to drink tea." Feng Jiu waved his hand. He had a headache with this little brother. "Just now I went to find Master and felt that someone was spying on us, but Master didn't respond. I knew that the storm that was about to happen can only be solved by us."
"Eldest Brother, please tell me."
"Aren't you curious at all?"
"If Eldest Brother is willing to tell me, I will."
Feng Jiu's expression kept changing. "Junior Brother Lei's death is too strange. I've been telling myself not to lose my cool. This matter is very tricky. One of the two must be lying. If it's Xu Longxiang, then my decision so far is correct. If it's Yan Li, then it's too scary. Not only have I let down the Thunder Sect and Junior Brother Lei's soul, but I've also let down my responsibility! But these are not the problem. Many years ago, I made a huge mistake, and this mistake was accidentally discovered by others. This is the root of the problem. "
Yu Qiuyu said, "I believe in Yan Li."
Feng Jiu said, "I believe in him too. So from now on, I want you to protect him."
Yu Qiuyu's expression changed slightly. He seemed a little confused. "He's in the Sword Dungeon. Who can touch him?"
Feng Jiu suddenly grabbed the teacup and crushed it in front of Yu Qiuyu's incredulous gaze. Then he took a deep breath. "Qiuyu, there are some things you don't know. It's a good thing for you. I feel a huge storm brewing. Qiuyu, Eldest Brother may not be able to protect you in the future. But before that, I hope you must believe in me. "
Yu Qiuyu stood for a moment and suddenly walked out without a word. He was heading towards the Sword Dungeon. When he arrived outside the dungeon, he found that there were no guards at the door. He became suspicious. He could faintly hear Yan Li talking to the disciples of Cangjian Peak. This meant that what Eldest Brother was worried about had not happened. He was about to enter when he suddenly heard a call.
"Junior Brother Qiuyu."
He turned around and saw a group of people walking towards him with a murderous look. Most of them were disciples of the Thunder Sect. The leader was the supervisor of the Law-Enforcement Institution, Wang Langtai.
"What are you doing?" he said sternly and cautiously. Thirteen Strokes was already in his hands.
Wang Langtai smiled. "Junior Brother Qiuyu, the people behind me are all Thunder Sect's Yuan Chen. They are very dissatisfied with Eldest Brother's verdict and have decided to personally punish the murderer."
Yu Qiuyu's heart sank. He hadn't thought that Eldest Brother's worries would come true so quickly. His gaze was as sharp as a sword, piercing Wang Langtai. "Eldest Brother hasn't made his verdict yet! The Law-Enforcement Institution is going to break the law knowingly? Leave immediately and I'll pretend that nothing happened! "
A Thunder Sect Yuan Chen mocked loudly. "Yu Qiuyu, aren't you the last disciple of the headmaster? Other than this identity, what else do you have? Why do people call you Yu Jianzi? It's because of the headmaster! Other than relying on the power of the headmaster, what else can you do? In the sect, you don't even have the position of an administrator, much less a Yuan Chen. Who gave you the guts to block us here? "
Thirteen Strokes was suddenly unsheathed, but it was clamped by a sword finger. Wang Langtai casually caught Yu Qiuyu's sword and said calmly, "Junior Brother Qiuyu, we are all disciples of the Heavenly Sword Peak. How can you use your sword at the slightest disagreement? On the other hand, the Law-Enforcement Institution has recently captured a demon woman. Although she refuses to say anything, we know that she is your wife that you secretly married outside. "
"You captured Cheng?" Yu Qiuyu's eyes instantly turned blood red.
Wang Langtai smiled. "This concerns the collusion between the core disciples of the sect and the demon race. The Law-Enforcement Institution naturally has to pay attention. After my people found out about you, they didn't report to the headmaster immediately. You should thank us. If the headmaster knew, what do you think he would do? It is hard for me to be softhearted, but Junior Brother Qiuyu is the direct disciple of the headmaster. I have always respected the headmaster. Now, Junior Brother Qiuyu, I will give you a chance. Immediately go in and kill Yan Li. Then, I will release your wife and make you legally husband and wife. "
