"Let's go to the next level," Meng Qi said as she walked towards the edge of the grass. "Are we still going to wait here later?"
As she spoke, she stood at the edge and looked back at the crowd.
"Let's … wait …" Sikong Xing stared at Meng Qi in a daze.
"Okay." Meng Qi nodded.
She took a step forward, and her cyan-clothed figure instantly disappeared from where she stood.
The remaining people stood in place and looked at each other.
Chu Tianfeng's expression didn't look too good. He looked at Qin Xiumo, then at Sikong Xing, and finally at Pei Mufeng and Li Che.
Qin Xiumo was silent. His eyelids drooped slightly, covering the light in his eyes.
Li Che stood in place blankly. He looked at the place where Meng Qi disappeared, and then at Sikong Xing. "What do you mean?"
Only Pei Mufeng's expression didn't change. He just stood in place calmly, but he didn't leave immediately.
After a while, Sikong Xing couldn't help but speak first, "She has a Dao companion? When did Meng Qi have a Dao companion? "
She still couldn't believe her ears. "When did this happen? Why didn't I know about it at all?! "
"Dao companion …" Chu Tianfeng stared blankly at the place where Meng Qi disappeared, and suddenly jumped up. "She has a Dao companion?! When did this happen? Who is that guy?! Could it be … "
His expression was uncertain, and he turned to look at Qin Xiumo. "She has been with Ji Wujiong since then. Could it be this guy?"
Chu Tianfeng's expression instantly became extremely ugly.
"Impossible!" Sikong Xing said, "Hasn't Ji Wujiong always wanted Meng Qi to be his disciple?"
"Ha, naive!" Chu Tianfeng coldly snorted, "Although the spiritual energy on that Ji Wujiong's body belongs to the cultivators of our Three Thousand Worlds, his style of doing things is quite similar to those unscrupulous fellows in the Demon Realm. Do you think he would care about a disciple? "
He paused for a moment and then said in a bad mood, "And you saw it too. After leaving the Starfall Sea, he obviously knew something. Meng Qi suddenly got close to him and even agreed to call him master. Maybe this despicable guy is using the same method to blackmail Meng Qi again! "
The more Chu Tianfeng spoke, the more he felt that he was right. "This guy has been pestering Meng Qi. Who knows what his purpose is? He has never been a good person!"
Sikong Xing: "…"
She turned and looked at Qin Xiumo. "What do you think?"
"You forgot that in the Starfall Sea, Meng Qi was holding something in his hand." Qin Xiumo's tone was indifferent. "It's more likely that it's that person."
He didn't say who it was, but the few people here, except for Li Che's two fellow disciples, almost all of them had fought side by side in the Starfall Sea. Everyone immediately reacted.
"But …" Sikong Xing was so shocked that she almost couldn't speak. After saying "but" for a long time, she didn't continue.
After a while, she shook her head desperately. "But if it's that person, then …"
She licked her dry lips. She was clearly speaking, but her voice sounded so distant. "If it's that person, then Meng Qi is … is our …"
Sikong Xing still felt that it was inconceivable. Before she finished speaking, she shook her head.
The Demon Lord Token appeared once every hundred years in the Demon Realm. The Great Celestial Demons needed to fight for the Demon Lord Token again to determine the position of the Demon Lord.
Therefore, although there were many geniuses in the Sky Demon White Tiger Clan, and Demon Monarchs often appeared, they didn't occupy an absolute ruling position.
Otherwise, some ambitious and powerful Sky Demons wouldn't be eager to make a move every time the Demon Monarch Token was about to appear.
Just like this time, because there was a rumor that the Great Sky Demon Yun Qingyan, who was the Demon Monarch at the time, cultivated a heaven-defying formation, a great tribulation fell on him together by the will of the three realms. He failed to pass the tribulation and disappeared after being seriously injured.
Those who had the ability to compete for the Demon Monarch Token were all ecstatic.
The situation in the Demon Realm changed, and all the major forces took action.
The main forces in the Demon Realm had always been divided into three factions.
One faction was the Kin Clan, and was willing to join forces with the cultivators of the Three Realms to deal with the Demon Realm. They were willing to be on good terms with them and even have normal business dealings.
One faction was the Demon Cultivators who remained neutral. They didn't like or dislike the cultivators of the Three Realms, but they wouldn't harm the human race either.
Another faction felt that the Demon Cultivators were the masters of heaven and earth. They never looked down on the cultivators of the Three Realms. Of course, they also looked down on the Demon Cultivators.
Yun Qingyan didn't directly express his support for the cultivators of the Three Realms, but his trusted subordinate, Su Junmo, stayed in the Three Realms for a long time. He was relatively friendly to the Three Realms.
When he was the Demon Monarch, he was very straightforward and didn't do anything to govern. He didn't restrict the affairs of the various races of the Demon Realm and allowed them to develop freely.
Therefore, most of the Great Sky Demon Cultivators put him in the first faction.
Those yao who wanted to develop and strengthen the Demon Realm and have the Demon Cultivators become the masters of the world naturally didn't like his conduct.
But Yun Qingyan was too strong.
Sikong Xing had never seen Yun Qingyan fight, but she had heard the elders of the clan mention Yun Qingyan's genius and strength countless times.
This was the youngest Demon Monarch in the history of the Demon Realm. He was so strong that even the yao cultivators who opposed him had to admit that if the Demon Realm could produce a Great Sky Demon Cultivator who could step through the void and ascend, it would be Yun Qingyan.
What Sikong Xing heard about Yun Qingyan was a glorious legend for hundreds of years.
It was said that he had never been defeated in a fight.
Ever since he obtained the Demon Monarch Token for the first time 300 years ago, those Great Sky Demons who originally had ambitions for the Demon Monarch Token no longer dared to act rashly.
There were as many yao cultivators in the Demon Realm who admired him as there were stars in the sky. They could be ranked from the First Heaven to the Ninth Heaven of the Demon Realm.
And so on …
But such a powerful Yun Qingyan had actually been injured.
And he was seriously injured.
A year ago, when such a rumor first spread in the Demon Realm, no yao cultivator believed it.
Sikong Xing had also heard about it. Although her father didn't participate in the management of the Scarlet Fox Clan's affairs, he was still a Scarlet Fox aristocrat.
But at the time, even the Scarlet Fox Clan didn't dare to believe it.
In their eyes, the fact that Yun Qingyan was injured was a big joke and a lie.
Anyone who had seen him in action before wouldn't believe such a lie. Those yao cultivators who didn't dare to compete with Yun Qingyan for the position of Demon Monarch, but still had ambitions for the position, even started to become vigilant.
They felt that this was a rumor deliberately spread by Yun Qingyan to lure the snake out of its hole. He wanted to capture all the ambitious Great Sky Demons in one fell swoop.
During that time, they became more and more respectful and cautious. They didn't even dare to reveal their ambitions in their sleep.
But slowly, this rumor became more and more intense.
Yun Qingyan didn't appear in front of everyone again. Some ceremonies that had to be presided over by the Demon Monarch were also handed over to his subordinates or the Elders of the White Tiger Clan.
About a year ago, the oldest Elder of the Celestial Demon Phoenix Clan had successfully undergone eight nirvanas. He already had one hand on the edge of the Heavenly Dao and could step into the Mahayana realm after one more nirvanas.
At his 1,600th birthday banquet, which was also the day he successfully underwent eight nirvanas, Yun Qingyan was absent again.
This time, the voices of the Demon Realm started to change slightly.
As a Demon Monarch, Yun Qingyan was the true king of all demons in the Demon Realm. He didn't have to participate in any banquets that he didn't want to.
However, this Celestial Demon Phoenix Clan Elder was also the oldest elder in the Demon Realm.
Before Yun Qingyan became a Demon Monarch, he once found a young genius of the Phoenix Clan who was as famous as him. The two of them fought under the Phoenix Tree for seven days and seven nights. In the end, not only did he defeat that person, but he also took a branch from the Phoenix Tree and left.
That battle made Yun Qingyan completely famous, and it also made the Patriarch of the Phoenix Clan a little angry.
However, this Elder wasn't angry. Instead, he smiled and sent someone to deliver the array formation that the Phoenix Clan used to refine Dharma treasures with Phoenix branches.
This was the world's famous true array formation of the Great Fire Array.
Only this powerful fire, which could burn all things, could refine the world's hardest Phoenix Tree into the shape that cultivators needed.
Although the Great Fire Array had always existed in the outside world, only the Phoenix Clan knew how to make true arrays.
The Great Celestial Demon Elder said that the various clans of the Demon Realm had been fighting since ancient times. However, these fights weren't for the sake of demon cultivators fighting to the death. Instead, they were for the sake of making the Demon Realm more prosperous and powerful.
Therefore, he didn't wish for this matter to cause any rift between the two young Celestial Demon Royals.
After Yun Qingyan learned of this, he personally went to thank him.
The two of them drank and chatted merrily under the Phoenix Tree.
Later on, Yun Qingyan would definitely attend the Phoenix Clan Elder's decennial birthday banquet.
Even after he obtained the Demon Monarch Token and became a Demon Monarch, this never changed.
Therefore, everyone felt that something was amiss when Yun Qingyan didn't attend the Phoenix Clan Elder's 1,600th birthday banquet and the eight successful nirvanic rebirths.
The Celestial Demon White Tiger Clan sent gifts. They even specially said that a portion of the gifts were sent by the Demon Monarch. Yun Qingyan happened to be in seclusion and was unable to come.
However, after the Phoenix Clan Elder's birthday banquet, the ambitions that some demon cultivators had suppressed for hundreds of years suddenly sprouted like seeds that had encountered the spring rain.
They didn't dare to do anything to Yun Qingyan immediately. To be cautious, some Great Celestial Demons tried to use the boundary crack between the trichiliocosm and the Demon Realm to send some ferocious demon cultivators over.
Although Yun Qingyan didn't care much about the development of the various clans of the Demon Realm in the Demon Realm, he never allowed them to cross the boundary and invade the cultivators of the trichiliocosm.
Especially those demon cultivators who crossed the boundary. They were often ordinary or weak cultivators at the Qi Refinement and Foundation Establishment stages.
In the past, when such a thing happened, the demon cultivators who were caught crossing the boundary only had one word to say: death!
But this time, he didn't care.
Those Great Celestial Demons even deliberately sent the demon cultivators they sent over to do some excessive things in the trichiliocosm, such as hurting a few disciples of the top ten sects.
They also knew that one of Yun Qingyan's trusted subordinates, White Fox Su Junmo, was in the trichiliocosm all year round. These matters would definitely reach his ears.
Unexpectedly, Yun Qingyan still didn't care.
Rumors of the Demon Monarch's injury spread once again.
More and more ambitious people became restless. They researched the rumors of the Demon Lord's injuries over and over again. In the end, they came to the conclusion that Yun Qingyan might really have been severely injured by the Will of the Three Realms. It was very likely that he would never recover.
Those Great Celestial Demons who had ambitions for the position of Demon Monarch were overjoyed. Seeing that the Demon Monarch Token was about to reappear in less than a year, they began to prepare frantically.
In the beginning, everyone was worried that Yun Qingyan would suddenly appear and capture them all.
But as time passed, not only did Yun Qingyan not appear, even the Celestial Demon White Tiger Clan fell silent.
Those Great Celestial Demons became increasingly arrogant. In the past year, the Demon Realm had changed. Even Sikong Xing's father felt some pressure.
Sikong Xing's mother was a cultivator from the trichiliocosm.
Her father didn't participate in the management of the clan's affairs and wasn't even a member of the Council of Elders. Their family had always been ostracized in the clan because of this reason.
The Crimson Fox Clan was definitely the third faction. They looked down on the human race from the bottom of their hearts.
Later, Sikong Xing followed her clan brother, who she didn't like, to the trichiliocosm to find her mother, whom she had never met.
She had never thought of doing evil with her clan brother and harming the human race.
So when she met Meng Qi and the others, she willingly left with her.
She didn't expect that she would come to this day.
These things quickly flashed through her mind. This was what her father told her the night before she left the Demon Realm.
He also told her that if the real Demon Lord was replaced by someone else, then Sikong Xing shouldn't return to the Demon Realm.
If she could find her mother, she would stay by her mother's side.
If she couldn't find her, he gave her a lot of spirit stones. It was enough for her to live a good life in the trichiliocosm.
Sikong Xing thought of the serious and melancholy expression on her father's face when she left.
Of course, she wouldn't leave her father alone in the Demon Realm. But she still came to the trichiliocosm.
She also wanted to find her mother, whom she had never seen before, and ask her if she was willing to be with her and her father.
If she wasn't willing, she would return to the Demon Realm.
Even if the world there turned upside down, she would stay by her father's side.
"Sikong Xing! Sikong?! "A hand waved in front of Sikong Xing.
She came back to her senses and met Chu Tianfeng's slightly furrowed brows. "Ah? What? "
"What are you thinking?" Chu Tianfeng looked at her suspiciously. "Do you know something?"
"I …" Sikong Xing opened her mouth.
The gazes of the people around her were all focused on her.
These people were indeed her life and death friends, but they were only cultivators from the trichiliocosm.
Sikong Xing hesitated. Regarding the Demon Realm's Battle of the Demon Monarchs, even she could only hear about it from others. Wouldn't it be useless to tell them?
Ran Wen
"Why did you stop halfway?" Chu Tianfeng frowned and asked casually, "What is Meng Qi to you?"
"… The Demon Empress." Sikong Xing said in a small voice.
Chu Tianfeng: "???"
Chu Tianfeng: "What?!"
"If it's that lord, Meng Qi should be our Demon Empress." Sikong Xing took a deep breath. "The Demon Lord Token appears once in a hundred years, and it happens to be now. It's time for the Demon Lord Token to reappear and fight for the position of the Demon Lord."
She decided to tell these friends what she knew. After all, it was about Meng Qi.
Moreover …
Sikong Xing's gaze swept across the faces of these friends.
In fact, for people like Pei Mufeng and Li Che, they didn't say much.
But probably because they had experienced life and death together and fought side by side in the Starfall Sea, and they were all friends of Meng Qi, she was willing to believe them.
"Before the new Demon Lord appears, if Meng Qi really becomes Dao companions with that lord, then she will be our Demon … Demon Empress."
Sikong Xing still felt a little awkward calling Meng Qi this way.
Chu Tianfeng: "…"
He sucked in a breath of cold air and suddenly asked, "But hasn't your Yao Monarch been a Yao Monarch for three hundred years? Doesn't he have any other women? Didn't you say that your Great Heaven Demons can have many women, just like the Lord of the Devil Mansion and the Great Realm Masters of the Devil Realm? "
Chu Tianfeng's tone became anxious. "Here, we can only have one Dao companion after becoming Dao companions."
"No." Sikong Xing's face darkened. "The current Demon Lord is from the Heaven Demon White Tiger Race."
"So what?" Chu Tianfeng was stunned and didn't understand.
"The Heaven Demon White Tiger Race has produced many Demon Lords, but they have never had other concubines. There is only one Demon Empress," Sikong Xing said.
She snorted and couldn't help but say, "Don't think I don't know. Although there can only be one Dao companion in the Three Thousand Worlds, many cultivators still have concubines. Their Dao companion might not even be their official wife. They just cultivate together."
Sikong Xing paused and said, "For us Demon Cultivators, Dao companions are wives. The Demon Lord's Dao companion must be the Demon Empress. Sigh … "
She waved her hand. "Why did you interrupt me just now?! What I wanted to say was, if Meng Qi really became Dao companions with the Demon Lord, then the Demon Realm should have a Demon Empress now. Even if I'm in the Three Thousand Worlds, it's impossible for me to not know about this. This is a major event second only to the Demon Lord's ascension. Even if I don't know, Su Junmo definitely knows and will tell me. "
"I see." Chu Tianfeng nodded thoughtfully. "So you don't think it's that person?"
"It shouldn't be …" Sikong Xing said.
"So is it really that bastard Ji Wujiong?!" Chu Tianfeng was about to go crazy again. "I definitely won't accept it! That guy doesn't look like a good person. He's too evil. Meng Qi might as well be with that hypocritical Xue Chengxuan than with him! "
Sikong Xing: "…"
"Xingxing's words also make sense. Besides, the Demon Lord should be in the Demon Realm now. Meng Qi probably hasn't seen him for a long time." Qin Xiumo's tone was still calm.
As he spoke, he turned his head and looked at Pei Mufeng thoughtfully.
Chu Tianfeng followed his gaze and was stunned. "Could it be you?!"
"It's not me." Pei Mufeng said lightly.
Chu Tianfeng simply looked at Xu Zijun standing beside Pei Mufeng.
"It's not me." Xu Zijun shook his head repeatedly. "How could it be me?!"
Chu Tianfeng looked at Li Che!
"It's not me, it's not me." Li Che shook his head quickly.
"Then who could it be?" Chu Tianfeng frowned and finally looked at Yan Xuan, who no one was familiar with.
This young master of Mirror Moon Sky didn't say much from the beginning. After Meng Qi left, he was silent and stood at the edge of the group.
But Meng Qi's relationship with him was obviously good.
"Could it be you?" Chu Tianfeng looked at Yan Xuan and asked.
His tone wasn't rude. After all, they all knew that Yan Xuan became like this because he was exhausted and seriously injured from stopping the invasion of the Demon Realm.
"No." Yan Xuan said coldly, "But do you know the Broken Space Sect?"
"Broken Space Sect?" Chu Tianfeng was stunned and looked back at Qin Xiumo. "Of course I know."
But what did the Broken Space Sect have to do with Meng Qi?!
"Before we entered the Ten Extremes Mountain, the Broken Space Sect chose a new sect master, Ling Ji." Yan Xuan said, "He personally came to see Meng Qi."
Chu Tianfeng: "!!!"
He was tongue-tied. "But Ling Ji is more than twenty years older than Meng Qi."
"He's the sect master of the Broken Space Sect, an expert of the Insightful Truth Realm. It's not an exaggeration to say that he's the best swordsman in the world." Yan Xuan said, "If you've seen him, you'll know that a difference of more than twenty years is nothing to him."
"I remember now!" Chu Tianfeng suddenly said, "The Broken Space Sect sent people to find Meng Qi, so …"
He was tongue-tied. "No, no way! Could it really be him?! "
"Who knows?" Yan Xuan said as he walked towards the edge of the grassland. "Instead of thinking here, why don't we wait for Meng Qi to come out and ask him directly? If we don't go to the next stage, he'll probably come out. "
As he spoke, he took a step forward and disappeared from the edge of the grassland.
"He's really …" Chu Tianfeng stared at the place where he disappeared. "He's a bit arrogant!"
"He's a genius to begin with, so he's qualified." Pei Mufeng's tone was still indifferent. "Let's go too."
As he spoke, he stepped forward and also disappeared from the edge of the grassland.
"I'm going too!" Sikong Xing said, "Meng Qi seems to value this trip to the Ten Extremes Mountain very much. I have to help him as much as I can."
After the red-clothed girl finished speaking, her figure flashed and she left the grassland.
"Meng Qi has helped me a lot, and this time, he saved me again. I have to help him as much as I can." Li Che also hurriedly followed.
Soon, the other two disciples from the Surging Waves Academy and the Falling Star Pavilion also left the grassland.
Only Chu Tianfeng and Qin Xiumo remained.
"What do you think?" Chu Tianfeng grabbed his hair in annoyance.
Qin Xiumo's tone was a bit cold. "If it's really Ji Wujiong, can you beat him now? If you don't agree, what's the use? "
"So after this Ten Extremes Mountain, our cultivation will directly increase by a large realm." He said, "At that time, we'll have the qualifications to decide what to do."
"Let's go, let's go!" Chu Tianfeng didn't hesitate anymore, and strode towards the edge of the grassland.
Qin Xiumo watched him leave, but he didn't move.
After a while, two men wearing black robes like him walked towards him. "Junior Brother Qin."
The man walking on the left smiled slightly and greeted him. "When you suddenly disappeared, I thought you … Ah ah ah!"
Before the man could finish his sentence, he suddenly took a few steps back, and a trace of anger flashed across his face. "Junior Brother Qin, what are you doing?"
As he spoke, he panted, and looked at Qin Xiumo's eyes, and a trace of panic quickly flashed across his face.
The other man beside him was Wei Yuanzhong, whom Meng Qi had seen that day at Mirror-Moon Sky.
"Junior Brother Qin." Wei Yuanzhong also frowned. "What are you doing? Junior Brother Zhao is also concerned about you. "
"Concerned?" Qin Xiumo put his right index and middle fingers together, and lightly flicked.
Cloud Treading Peak was a rare sect that cultivated both sword and art. In general, they mainly cultivated the sword, and magic arts were secondary.
His lifebound sword silently floated in the air, and the tip of the sword flashed with a bit of cold light, pointing directly at Zhao Jianian who had spoken to him at the beginning.
"Speaking of which, I should be grateful to Senior Brother Zhao." Qin Xiumo's lips curved slightly, but there was no smile on his face.
His gaze was extremely cold, and like his extremely sharp lifebound sword, it flashed with cold light.
He looked at Zhao Jianian like this, and said coldly, "Otherwise, there wouldn't be this …"
Qin Xiumo's last two words were very vague, and his voice was very low. Wei Yuanzhong reflexively asked, "What?"
"… Encounter." He slowly said, but the movements of his hands were not slow at all.
His lifebound sword was wrapped in a sharp aura, and as fast as lightning, it stabbed towards Zhao Jianian.
Zhao Jianian was shocked. This sword was really too fast, so fast that in the blink of an eye, he didn't even hear Qin Xiumo's two words, and the cold sword was already in front of him.
He already knew that his talent was inferior to Qin Xiumo, and he also knew that Junior Brother Qin was the one that Master truly valued, and was the future sect master in Master's heart.
But why?!
Junior Brother Qin had clearly entered the sect later than him, and before he entered, he was the most outstanding of the younger generation of disciples, and the one that Master valued the most.
And he had already worked hard enough!
His talent was just a bit lacking, but he was already second in the sect, wasn't he?!
Zhao Jianian's expression also darkened. Even if he lost to this Junior Brother Qin by a bit, the gap between the two of them wouldn't be too great.
It was only because Master was biased that he said that Junior Brother Qin's future was limitless, and that they would be left far behind.
Zhao Jianian summoned his lifebound sword, preparing to counterattack, and said loudly, "Eldest Senior Brother, you see, it's him …"
He didn't even have time to finish his sentence before there was a long "ding —" sound, and the two's lifebound swords had already clashed dozens of times in an instant.
But because Qin Xiumo's sword was too fast and too terrifying, like lightning, it only sounded like a long sound.
Zhao Jianian didn't dare to speak, and gritted his teeth to block with all his might.
So fast!
Junior Brother Qin's sword was really fast!
And … so strong!
In just a moment, the back of Zhao Jianian's robe was soaked.
The lifebound sword was connected to its master's mind, and Qin Xiumo's strike after strike against his sword also seemed to be attacking his divine sense.
So strong!
He was going to lose!
Zhao Jianian's face was ashen. It had only been a year, so how did Junior Brother Qin become so strong?!
He couldn't believe it!
He couldn't be so strong and improve so quickly!
"Junior Brother Qin!" Wei Yuanzhong finally realized that something was wrong. This Junior Brother who had disappeared for a year really wanted Junior Brother Zhao Jianian's life.
He hurriedly waved his fingers, and his lifebound sword appeared next to him. "Stop first, or I'll attack!"
Wei Yuanzhong said, "I'll count to three. Junior Brother Qin, if you don't withdraw your sword, I'll attack!"
"One." As he spoke, he anxiously looked at Qin Xiumo, and then at Zhao Jianian with worry.
Zhao Jianian suddenly grunted as Qin Xiumo's sword slashed across his left arm. Although he blocked quickly, a string of blood still rolled down his arm.
"Two." Wei Yuanzhong hurriedly counted again. "Junior Brother Qin, we're all from the same sect, so what can't we talk about? You stop first! "
"Ugh –" Zhao Jianian grunted again. This time, Qin Xiumo's shoulder slashed across his left leg, leaving behind two deep and narrow wounds.
So fast!
Zhao Jianian's face was pale. He found that he could barely see Junior Brother Qin's sword.
His opponent's lifebound sword seemed to transform into sword shadows, and it even carried a biting cold air.
Not only were his wounds very painful, they were also very cold. Even his blood seemed to be frozen into ice.
What was eldest senior brother doing?! Why wasn't he counting to three?!
Zhao Jianian became anxious. He was definitely not Junior Brother Qin's match, but if eldest senior brother joined forces with him, then he would have a chance.
No matter how much Qin Xiumo improved in this year, he couldn't be stronger than him and his senior brother joining forces.
When the time came, he could wait for Junior Brother Qin to be suppressed, then pretend that he wasn't in a hurry to withdraw his sword. After all, this was Ten Extremes Mountain. No matter what happened, no one would know.
"… Three." Wei Yuanzhong counted loudly. "Junior Brother Qin, you should stop."
"Okay." Qin Xiumo suddenly responded crisply.
This time, both Zhao Jianian and Wei Yuanzhong were stunned.
Qin Xiumo's lifebound sword had already been withdrawn. Zhao Jianian's pressure was greatly reduced, and he stood in place, stunned.
Wei Yuanzhong's lifebound sword was already about to attack, but he hurriedly called it back.
He revealed a slight smile, and looked at his two junior brothers. "That's right. What kind of misunderstanding can't be cleared up between fellow disciples?"
Zhao Jianian snorted coldly.
The three wounds on his body were still bleeding, and the coldness in his wounds was getting thicker and thicker, making him feel very uncomfortable.
However, he knew that Junior Brother Qin wouldn't dare to attack with him and eldest senior brother at the same time.
Hmph!
He snorted coldly in his heart. His lifebound sword was still hanging by his side. With eldest senior brother here, he wasn't worried that Qin Xiumo would do anything else.
As Zhao Jianian thought this, he took out some medicine for external injuries from his storage bag, and prepared to bandage his wounds first.
"Junior Brother Qin," Wei Yuanzhong said warmly. "What happened? Where did you go this year? We couldn't find you, and master was very worried. Later, we heard that you were together with that medical cultivator girl, and everyone went to Starfall City to look for you. "
"That's right …" Wei Yuanzhong said as he looked at Zhao Jianian. "Is there some misunderstanding between you and Junior Brother Zhao? Weren't you two very close in the past? "
"Junior Brother might have misunderstood me." As Zhao Jianian treated his wounds, he glanced at Qin Xiumo and said, "At the time, Junior Brother was going through his tribulation. I said that I would protect Junior Brother, but that day, master sent me to do something. I originally thought that I would be able to rush back before Junior Brother's tribulation, but who knew …"
He sighed, and looked into Qin Xiumo's eyes. He said sincerely, "This matter was indeed Senior Brother's fault. Later, Junior Brother disappeared, and master severely punished Senior Brother. Junior Brother, now you have already … "
He tilted his head slightly, and his expression turned cold. In just a year, Qin Xiumo had already reached the Spirit Severing Stage.
And it seemed that he had not just entered the Spirit Severing Stage!
Was this guy a lunatic?!
When he left, he was clearly not even a Nascent Soul cultivator!
"Yes, yes." Wei Yuanzhong also echoed. "Master did severely punish Junior Brother Zhao and made him face the wall for eight months. Later, he even sent him everywhere to look for you. Junior Brother Qin, let's forget about this matter. Your Senior Brother also knows that he was wrong. Your relationship in the past was so good, and he didn't do it on purpose. Moreover, Junior Brother Qin, when you reached the Nascent Soul stage from the Golden Core stage, everyone thought that it was a small matter for you. "
Wei Yuanzhong really felt that Qin Xiumo was making a big fuss over nothing.
Although Zhao Jianian did not do right in this matter, it was only a tribulation from the Golden Core stage to the Nascent Soul stage. Qin Xiumo was also a famous genius disciple in the sect. Everyone thought that this was a very easy matter for him.
Even if there was no one to protect him, it was not a big deal.
Later, Qin Xiumo really failed to pass the tribulation and even went into qi deviation. Their fellow disciples at the Cloud Treading Peak were all stunned.
This disciple who was doted on the most by Master turned out to be … nothing more than this?!
So later, Zhao Jianian cried and knelt in front of Master, begging him to punish him because he promised to protect his Junior Brother. In the end, because he went to do something Master asked him to do, he was delayed a little and did not return in time.
To be honest, everyone, including Wei Yuanzhong, was a little disapproving.
Even if Zhao Jianian returned in time, for something like tribulation transcendence, if you failed, you failed. The help your fellow disciples could provide was too limited.
Everyone even comforted Zhao Jianian, who was in pain and self-blame, and advised him not to be sad.
As long as they could find Qin Xiumo and bring him back, Master would have a way to save him.
Wei Yuanzhong also thought so. He really did not feel that Junior Brother Zhao Jianian had done too much wrong.
Moreover, after Qin Xiumo went missing, Wei Yuanzhong also saw his self-blame and pain.
He knew that his two Junior Brothers had a very good relationship, and even often comforted Zhao Jianian, telling him to pull himself together as soon as possible.
Wei Yuanzhong never would have thought that for such a small matter, Qin Xiumo would actually directly attack without saying anything, and even injure Zhao Jianian in the blink of an eye.
"I heard that Senior Brother Zhao already got married?" Qin Xiumo did not directly answer this question.
He faintly glanced at Zhao Jianian, his gaze still very cold.
"Yes." Zhao Jianian also did not know what he was thinking, and could only say: "Junior Brother was unable to make it to this wedding banquet. After we leave Ten Extremes Mountain, Senior Brother will treat us, and we will not return until we are drunk."
Wei Yuanzhong also revealed a smile: "Junior Brother Zhao's Dao companion is a famous beauty in the Southern Land, Junior Brother Qin should also know."
He paused, and seeing that the atmosphere was already much more harmonious than before, he also relaxed a little: "Speaking of which, if Junior Brother Qin meets a female cultivator he likes, you can also find a Dao companion."
Wei Yuanzhong looked at Qin Xiumo, and laughed a little mockingly: "That little medical cultivator just now, she seems pretty good. Her heart is also good, uh … "
When he said this, he suddenly remembered that his usually proud Junior Brother actually helped that medical cultivator girl collect spirit stones, and felt a bit awkward.
However, it could also be seen that this Junior Brother Qin really treated her well.
"She is pretty good." Qin Xiumo smiled.
Seeing him also smile, Wei Yuanzhong relaxed even more.
Even Zhao Jianian let out a slight sigh of relief. It seemed that Junior Brother Qin did not know that he was the one who did that. He was just angry that he did not come back as promised.
Thinking like this, even his wound did not hurt as much, it should be the medicine that worked.
"Hahaha." Zhao Jianian laughed: "If Junior Brother really likes that girl, when we leave Ten Extremes Mountain, we can bring her back to the Southern Land. She isn't a cultivator from the Southern Land, right? Which sect is she from? "
He remembered that Meng Qi seemed to be quite familiar with Xue Chengxuan just now, and she was also a medical cultivator. He asked: "Is she a disciple of the Wind Alliance?"
"No." Qin Xiumo said.
"Junior Brother, you can't be like this. It's fine if you are a bit colder in front of us, and speak less. However, in front of that girl, you have to be more proactive. "Zhao Jianian said with a laugh:" Later, Senior Brother will slowly teach you. "
"Haha." Qin Xiumo laughed lightly.
Zhao Jianian was even happier seeing this. Even though he knew that Qin Xiumo had gone mad after failing his tribulation, he was still very scared that he had not seen him alive or dead.
He was scared that one day, this Junior Brother Qin would suddenly pop out of nowhere and kill him.
Now, seeing that Qin Xiumo was still willing to talk to him and smile at him, even though he was not dead and had become stronger, Zhao Jianian was very displeased.
However, it was better than dying under his sword.
Also, since he did not know that he did it, then he could … …
"It's about time." Before Zhao Jianian finished thinking, he suddenly heard Qin Xiumo say.
"What?" He reflexively asked.
What greeted him was a sword-light that was even faster and sharper than before.
This time, even Wei Yuanzhong did not have time to react. Qin Xiumo's lifebound longsword had already pierced through Zhao Jianian's neck.
This sword was really too fast and too sudden!
Zhao Jianian's face even carried a smile. He opened his eyes wide in disbelief. This Junior Brother Qin actually killed him in front of their eldest senior brother.
How dare he?!
He … …
Zhao Jianian's throat made a gurgling sound, but he could no longer utter a complete syllable.
Actually, even if he suffered such a heavy injury, he might not necessarily die. In his storage brocade pouch, there were still the life-saving medicinal pills that Master had given them before entering Ten Extremes Mountain.
As long as he could … …
Zhao Jianian moved his fingers, but suddenly discovered that his entire body had frozen.
Even his spiritual sea and spiritual energy had been frozen into ice. Forget about taking medicine from his storage brocade pouch, he could not even bend his fingers.
"Gurgling." His throat still made a sound, desperately trying to make a sound.
"Junior Brother Qin, you?!" Wei Yuanzhong was indescribably shocked and furious. "You actually treat your own senior brother like this?! Your own fellow disciple! "
As he spoke, he quickly took out a small porcelain bottle from his storage brocade pouch. He poured out the medicine inside, wanting to stuff it into Zhao Jianian's mouth.
"Ugh." Wei Yuanzhong suddenly groaned. His body went limp, and he fell to the ground.
The medicinal pill in his hand rolled onto the grass, rolling to the side.
Qin Xiumo slowly walked forward, picking up that medicinal pill.
He brought it to his nose and sniffed. "Nine Returning Yang Pill."
Qin Xiumo flicked his finger, throwing it to Wei Yuanzhong's side. He coldly said, "Right now, even a Rebirth Pill can't save his life."
"You … …" Wei Yuanzhong only had no strength left in his body, but his mind was still clear, and he could still speak. "Why did you … do this to us?"
Qin Xiumo did not speak. He only stood at the side, coldly looking at the deathly pale Zhao Jianian.
"I wanted to kill him, so I killed him." He indifferently said. "So he wouldn't get in the way."
"Get in the way?!" Wei Yuanzhong stared blankly, then suddenly exploded in anger. "In order to ascend Ten Extremes Mountain, you killed your own senior brother?! You devil! "
He completely did not dare to believe it.
Even if his junior brother Qin used to be rather cold and arrogant, and was also known as a genius in the Main Sect, he had always been alone, and had very few friends.
But he always felt that this junior brother of his was not a cruel and heartless person.
"Why didn't you kill me as well?" Wei Yuanzhong sternly asked. "Qin Xiumo, as long as I don't die, I will definitely kill you to get rid of evil for the Main Sect!"
Qin Xiumo coldly glanced at him.
His lifebound longsword was still suspended in the air, but it did not stab towards Wei Yuanzhong.
"Heh — —" Wei Yuanzhong coldly laughed. "That medical cultivator girl, she didn't ask about our origins, didn't ask about our identities, and saved all of us in one go."
When Qin Xiumo heard him mention Meng Qi, the corners of his lips almost imperceptibly rose in a gentle arc. "She has always been this kind of person."
"How could she possibly fall for a demon like you?! If she knew what you did, she would definitely … "
Wei Yuanzhong suddenly stopped halfway through his words.
His eyes widened as he watched the woman in green slowly walk over from behind Qin Xiumo.
That person was Meng Qi.
"Is this the person?" Meng Qi had already come out of the second level. As Xue Chengxuan said, it was indeed very simple. It was to test their knowledge of spiritual herbs and spiritual flowers.
In the second level, there were many square lattice floors.
On each floor, there was a spiritual herb or spiritual flower painted.
The brushes were vivid and lifelike.
With every step Meng Qi took, new questions would appear on the sky in front of her.
She only needed to choose the right floor with the correct spiritual herbs and spiritual flowers according to those questions, and there would be no danger at all.
Meng Qi passed through the second level unimpeded all the way.
As soon as she came out, she happened to see Wei Yuanzhong fall down.
She also heard the conversation between the two.
Meng Qi looked at Zhao Jianian, who was stiff all over. Although the other party's expression looked a little scary, she naturally understood when she saw that he was wearing the same robe as Wei Yuanzhong.
She glanced at Wei Yuanzhong and knew that Qin Xiumo didn't want to kill him. He just wanted to make him unable to move temporarily.
"Yes." Hearing Meng Qi's question, Qin Xiumo hesitated for a moment and nodded.
"Oh." Meng Qi took a few steps forward, leaned over, and gently pressed on Zhao Jianian's wrist.
"Fellow Daoist Meng!" Seeing this, Wei Yuanzhong hurriedly said, "Please save him! You can definitely save him. "
"He's already dead." Meng Qi stood up.
Wei Yuanzhong: "!!!"
So fast?!
"He was poisoned and his vitals were injured," Meng Qi said as she glanced at the Nine Yang Restoration Pill and said, "It's useless even with the Nine Yang Restoration Pill."
She leaned over and picked up the pill, put it in a porcelain bottle, and put it on Wei Yuanzhong's body. She said, "This is a pill refined by the Wind Alliance. It's quite effective."
"Fellow Daoist Meng!" Wei Yuanzhong finally calmed down.
They had just entered the Ten Extremes Mountain and hadn't even passed the second level. They hadn't even reached the foot of the mountain, but his junior martial brother was already dead. Moreover, he died in the hands of another junior martial brother.
Wei Yuanzhong only felt like crying but had no tears. He simply didn't know how to explain this to his master.
"You …" He opened his mouth with difficulty, looked at Meng Qi, and then looked at Qin Xiumo. He took a deep breath and said, "My junior martial brother was killed by Junior Martial Brother Qin. Fellow Daoist Meng, I can't repay the favor of detoxifying and saving my life. However, you shouldn't get too close to such a temperamental villain. "
Wei Yuanzhong gritted his teeth and said, "After all, who knows when he'll feel that you're in his way and want to kill you."
Right now, he still couldn't move, and he also knew that his life was still in the hands of Qin Xiumo.
However, although Meng Qi just took a Mystic Spirit Stone from them, she did indeed save his life.
Secondly, Wei Yuanzhong only felt like he was about to explode from holding it in. However, if he didn't say this, he was worried that he would suffer internal injuries and damage his Dao Heart.
Meng Qi nodded. "I know."
She paused, and said, "Previously, when Qin Xiumo was transcending the tribulation, this person …"
Meng Qi didn't know Zhao Jianian's name. She turned her head and glanced at Qin Xiumo, and asked, "What's his name?"
"… Zhao Jianian."
"This Fellow Daoist Zhao Jianian didn't care about the friendship of fellow disciples. At the most dangerous moment, he stabbed him in the back." Meng Qi continued.
"Huh?" Wei Yuanzhong was stunned.
"The two of you cultivate sword techniques at the peak of the Cloud Treading Peak." Meng Qi continued, "Spells tend to belong to the water-type lineage. When transcending the tribulation, not to mention the fire poison entering the body, even if there were a few basins of charcoal around you, it would be much more dangerous. He was probably afraid that Qin Xiumo wouldn't die, so he added another palm strike after he was injured, messing up his spirit energy and making him unable to save himself. "
She had treated Qin Xiumo's injuries before, so she knew how serious his injuries were at that time.
If it wasn't for the Cool Breeze Valley's cold pond, and Qin Xiumo's good luck, there would probably be nothing left of him now.
"So, isn't it right for him to kill him to take revenge?" Meng Qi said.
Wei Yuanzhong looked at Meng Qi in a daze. In fact, he was almost convinced.
Meng Qi had just saved them, and there were many rumors about this medical cultivator in the trichiliocosm. No one said anything bad about her.
"But …" Wei Yuanzhong opened his mouth. "But this might just be his one-sided story …"
"He didn't say anything." Meng Qi said, "I was the one who treated his injuries. I saw it myself."
Qin Xiumo's left hand, which was hanging by his side, clenched into a fist and then slowly relaxed.
"But …" Wei Yuanzhong opened his mouth.
He felt that he should say something, but he didn't know what to say.
He didn't even know who he was trying to convince.
"Why are you telling me this?" After a long while, Wei Yuanzhong suddenly murmured.
Meng Qi frowned slightly. Before she could say anything, another figure appeared at the edge of the grassland not far from her.
"Junior Sister Meng?" That person was wearing a long pink dress. Her waist was slender and her facial features were exquisite. Her long black hair was tied up and pinned up with a jade hairpin.
Probably because she had been working hard recently, she looked thinner, but she looked more delicate and cute.
That person was none other than Lu Qing Ran.
"Qin, Qin …" After Lu Qing Ran called out to Meng Qi, her gaze quickly turned to Qin Xiumo.
When she thought of Qin Xiumo's harsh words to her, she blushed and hurriedly looked away.
"Big Brother Jianian!" Lu Qing Ran suddenly saw Zhao Jianian lying dead on the ground. She screamed and stumbled over to his corpse.
"Big Brother Jianian!" She knelt beside Zhao Jianian and shook his shoulders a few times. She cried out in disbelief, "Big Brother Jianian, what happened to you?"
She seemed to have just reacted and reached out to press on Zhao Jianian's wrist.
"Wuu —" Lu Qing Ran's tears fell. "What happened? Why did Big Brother Jianian die here? "
"Big Brother Jianian —" she cried out in a choked voice as she turned to look at Wei Yuanzhong, who was lying at the side.
Lu Qing Ran seemed to be a little afraid of Wei Yuanzhong. Although he was lying motionless, her body still subconsciously shrank back.
Wei Yuanzhong sighed and didn't say anything.
"Big Brother Jianian, he … how could he?" Lu Qing Ran muttered. "He's so powerful … how could he?"
yyxs.la
"It's a long story." Wei Yuanzhong already believed Meng Qi.
Actually, the main reason was that Qin Xiumo didn't kill him.
If he really wanted to kill his fellow sect members because of Shi Jue Mountain, then even if he didn't kill him, he could've seriously injured him.
But now, Wei Yuanzhong could clearly feel that the spiritual energy in his body wasn't stagnant at all. He reckoned that he would be able to move after a while.
"But … but …" Lu Qing Ran's tears rolled down her pretty face. "Big Brother Jianian is such a good person … why would someone kill him? Why would there be such a cruel person? "
With a face full of disbelief, she suddenly turned to look at Meng Qi and Qin Xiumo.
"Who killed Big Brother Jianian?" Lu Qing Ran asked.
Meng Qi: "…"
She was actually quite convinced. Not long ago, when she met her, wasn't she still in the restaurant with Wei Yuanzhong?
Now, she kept calling him Big Brother Jianian.
This Zhao Jianian … he had a Dao companion, right? Meng Qi remembered. She even went to treat his pregnant wife who was poisoned and was about to give birth. Then, she was unlucky enough to meet Qin Xiumo who came to take revenge.
Meng Qi remembered that Madam Zhao told her that she and Zhao Jianian were childhood sweethearts who cultivated together and were very close to each other.
She even remembered the light on Madam Zhao's face when she said that.
She was poisoned and pregnant, so her skin was dark and a little scary.
But as long as Zhao Jianian was mentioned, her eyes would really light up.
Her expression was also gentle and happy. As a bystander, Meng Qi could feel her sweetness.
So she also had a deep impression of him.
Seeing that Meng Qi and Qin Xiumo were ignoring her, Lu Qing Ran slowly stood up and used her sleeve to wipe her tears.
But her eyelashes were still wet. Just now, she cried, so her eyes were also red. Even the tip of her nose was red.
In addition, Lu Qing Ran was originally very beautiful. Because of this, she looked even more like a pear blossom with tears, making people feel pity for her.
At this time, there were already some cultivators who passed the second round and returned to the grassland.
They all saw the situation here and subconsciously came over to surround them.
"Did you kill Big Brother Jianian?" Lu Qing Ran asked.
As she spoke, she opened her hand, and a medicine knife appeared in her hand.
"Fellow Daoist Lu." Wei Yuanzhong was still lying down and couldn't move, so he hurriedly dissuaded her. "This matter is very complicated, don't be rash."
He also saw the cultivators who surrounded them. Dirty linen shouldn't be aired in public. He couldn't talk about his shidi's scandal in front of these people.
Even if they didn't remember anything after leaving Shijue Mountain, Wei Yuanzhong couldn't say it.
"I want to avenge Big Brother Jianian." Lu Qing Ran stubbornly said, "He can't die so innocently."
Wei Yuanzhong: "…"
"It's you? Right? "Lu Qing Ran gritted her teeth and looked at Meng Qi hatefully." Why? Junior Martial Sister Meng, why did you kill him? Did you … "
Speaking up to here, she suddenly choked with sobs. "Do you want to snatch away all the people who are good to me? If you can't snatch them away, you'll have to kill them before you're satisfied?!"
Meng Qi: "???"
"I killed him." Qin Xiumo stepped forward and said coldly, "Do you want to take revenge?"
With a flick of his finger, his life-bound longsword instantly appeared beside him.
The tip of the sword was cold. Seeing this, Lu Qing Ran shrank back in fear.
She quickly stood up again and said loudly, "Even if you kill me, I still want to ask, why did you kill Big Brother Jianian? Isn't he your Senior Martial Brother? What did he do that you could kill a fellow disciple like this? "
Qin Xiumo coldly looked at Lu Qing Ran and didn't explain.
But under his gaze, Lu Qing Ran couldn't help but take two steps back.
Meng Qi: "Fellow Daoist Lu, I'm sure you still remember where we met Qin Xiumo that day."
Lu Qing Ran was stunned and slowly nodded.
"It was all thanks to him that he ended up like that." Meng Qi raised her chin towards the area behind her and said.
Lu Qing Ran's eyes widened. She opened her mouth and murmured, "But …"
She was stunned for a while before she continued, "Fellow Daoist Qin didn't die, right?"
Lu Qing Ran hurriedly said, "Also, he was injured during the tribulation. His injuries were so serious because he failed the tribulation and went mad."
Meng Qi: "…"
So that day at the cold pond in the back mountain, Lu Qing Ran clearly took care of Qin Xiumo. She was also a medical cultivator, so why didn't she check on his injuries?
"Even if he really was careless and did something wrong, Fellow Daoist Qin didn't die. He was punished by their master later and had to face the wall to reflect on his mistakes for eight months. You shouldn't have killed him. " When Lu Qing Ran said this, she was about to cry again. Tears hung on her long eyelashes and could fall down at any time.
Lu Qing Ran turned her head and looked around. Seeing that many cultivators had already gathered around, she felt even more confident.
"Junior Martial Sister Meng, I know you don't like me …" she said softly.
Meng Qi: "I indeed don't like you, but I won't kill you just because I don't like you."
Lu Qing Ran's eyes were brimming with tears. "Even if you've already betrayed the sect and are no longer a disciple of my Cool Breeze Valley, you should still remember that when you first entered the sect, Master earnestly taught you that you couldn't leave someone in the lurch."
"How could you just watch Elder Brother Jianian die? If you were willing to save him, you could've saved him." Lu Qing Ran choked with sobs. "Even if you don't like him, you're a medical cultivator. Have you really completely forgotten Master's words?"
Meng Qi frowned slightly. She was a bit irritable.
Lu Qing Ran was so annoyed. How could there be so many male cultivators who were willing to live or die for her? They were even willing to fight until their heads bled for her.
She couldn't help but glance at Qin Xiumo. The black-robed man in front of her used to be one of them.
"Lu Qing Ran," Meng Qi said coldly.
"Let me say it," Qin Xiumo said.
He looked around and said loudly, "I'm Qin Xiumo of the Cloud Summit. He was my Senior Martial Brother. I was the one who killed him. It had nothing to do with anyone else."
Qin Xiumo paused. He glanced coldly at Lu Qing Ran.
Although he'd gotten his revenge, he didn't want to talk about the past, nor did he want to talk about it in public.
He didn't need other people's sympathy, nor did he need other people's recognition.
He'd just kill those who deserved to die!
Qin Xiumo's gaze scared Lu Qing Ran so much that she took a step back.
He then continued, "The reason I killed him was because this Senior Martial Brother, who used to be my close friend, stabbed me in the back with a poisoned dagger when I was about to advance to the Nascent Soul realm and transcend my tribulation. He even hit me with his palm. Not only did I fail to transcend my tribulation, but I also suffered a Qi deviation and almost died. Fortunately … "
When Qin Xiumo said this, his tone became gentler. "Fortunately, I met Fellow Daoist Meng Qi and managed to keep my life. Therefore, I killed him for revenge. Even if I didn't meet him today, I would've gone to the Southern Land and taken his worthless life. "
He looked coldly at Lu Qing Ran. "I shouldn't have killed him?"
Lu Qing Ran shrank back again. Tears welled up in her eyes. She then said, "I don't believe it! Brother Jianian is a chivalrous and righteous person. Many people in the Three Realms know about his chivalrous life. This is just because you … "
She looked at Meng Qi and said loudly, "I won't believe your one-sided story. Ask everyone, does anyone believe you?"
"I believe you." Meng Qi said, "Lu Qing Ran, you were also there that day. How could an ordinary person who suffered a Qi deviation after failing a tribulation be injured like that?
She paused, then said, "You said that I don't remember what Master taught me. Then Master is a medical cultivator, and you're also a medical cultivator. Master taught you medical skills and told you not to leave someone in the lurch. That day, when I went to the bottom of the lake to pick medicinal herbs, didn't you treat Qin Xiumo? You didn't use your medical skills to treat people, but instead pestered me endlessly. You're completely letting your emotions get the better of you. Did you forget who she taught you? "
Lu Qing Ran bit her lower lip. A cold light suddenly flashed through the depths of her eyes.
This again!
She didn't want it to be like this!
Her eyes were still filled with tears. She said loudly, "Apart from you, is there anyone else who would believe it?! Brother Jianian entered the sect earlier than Qin Xiumo, and his cultivation level is higher than his. He's also his Senior Martial Brother and they're close friends. Why would he harm him? Tribulation transcendence is extremely dangerous. Maybe Qin Xiumo was hallucinating at that time. "
Lu Qing Ran took a deep breath. She didn't want it to be like this. She was clearly the one who was popular, had more talent, and was doted on by Master the moment she entered the sect!
She looked around and asked loudly, "Fellow Daoists, do you believe it? They … they clearly found an excuse to kill Brother Jianian for the sake of Shijue Mountain! Do you really believe the words of someone who can casually kill his Senior Martial Brother? Do you believe the words of a medical cultivator who leaves someone in the lurch? "
After Lu Qing Ran finished speaking, she coldly glared at Meng Qi.
She didn't believe that there would be anyone standing on her side at this time!
When strangers saw her and Meng Qi for the first time, they were all willing to believe her.
"I believe it." Suddenly, an unfamiliar cultivator said, "Fellow Daoist, you weren't here just now, were you?"
That person looked at Lu Qing Ran with a teasing smile on his face.
"Eh?" Lu Qing Ran was startled.
"I also believe it." A cultivator standing next to that person also said.
"We believe it." Another person said.
"That's right, we believe in Fellow Daoist Meng." Another person also said.
At this time, there were more and more cultivators who passed the second test. Although many cultivators who came out later didn't hear the conversation just now, they quickly heard the entire matter from their fellow disciples.
Soon, even more people said loudly, "We believe it."
"We believe whatever Fellow Daoist Meng says."
"That's right, we believe in Fellow Daoist Meng!"
Someone saw Lu Qing Ran's beauty and her eyes were filled with tears. His tone was still gentle, "It's not good for me to say too much about the internal affairs of Cloud Crushing Peak. However, I'm afraid you're mistaken about Fellow Daoist Meng leaving someone in the lurch? You weren't here just now, right? "
There were also cultivators who were more straightforward, "If Fellow Daoist Meng really did it for Shijue Mountain, she only needed to stand aside and watch. Most of us would've died by now."
That person sneered and said, "If we're talking about threats, all of us added together are still bigger than a dead Zhao Jianian, right? However, she didn't even think about it and still cured our poison. "
Lu Qing Ran was completely confused.
In the end … … what in the world happened?
Why did Meng Qi suddenly have such charisma?!
At this time, another person said, "I actually don't think I'm a good person. Fellow Daoist Meng still saved me without asking anything. She didn't leave me in the lurch. From this, it can be seen that Fellow Daoist Meng isn't someone who leaves someone in the lurch. I even feel that she's too kind. Maybe some people aren't worth her saving. "
That person paused, then continued, "So if there really comes a day when she doesn't save someone, then I can only believe that that person deserves to die. Then, if that person doesn't die, I'm also willing to use my meager strength to kill that person. "
The person who spoke swept his cold gaze towards Lu Qing Ran.
He was a sword cultivator. His lifebound longsword was hanging by his side.
Compared to Qin Xiumo's longsword, that sword was narrower and sharper.
He was clearly talking about another person, but his gaze seemed to be telling Lu Qing Ran: Be careful, or else the longsword doesn't have eyes!
Lu Qing Ran was completely stunned.
Why … …
Why did it turn out like this?!
What in the world happened just now?!
Were these people crazy?!
Meng Qi!
Meng Qi, Meng Qi, Meng Qi!
Lu Qing Ran took a deep breath. Tears streamed down her face.
"I … …" She choked with sobs, "I'll definitely avenge Brother Jianian."
Just as she finished speaking, a chilling aura suddenly appeared on both sides of her neck, and four long swords suddenly appeared.
