Nangong Xue was angered half to death by his string of sweet words. She wanted to curse him, but then she realized that it was meaningless to argue with this scoundrel. She would be looked down upon by her Shixiong. She hated herself for taking the initiative to start a conversation. Now he was using her as an excuse to climb up the ladder and talk endlessly. Therefore, no matter how many hundred sentences he had to say, she always turned a deaf ear and did not answer him. He was not willing to kill the enemy. At most she would pretend that he did not exist. That was all. He talked incessantly, so for the time being she treated it as a bird chirping.
Afterwards, the three of them traveled through the Temple of the Rain King, Yunmeng Lake, Bai Hua Valley, and other places. Along the way, they encountered many enemies. Their strength was uneven. It seemed that they were not assigned according to their martial arts. Li Yijie was kind and did not want to kill them all. He only hit the enemy's acupoints and then threw them to the side of the road. Lu Qian also kept his promise. He said he would not attack, so he did not attack.
Six years ago, Li Yijie was told by An Yesun that the internal energy in his body was too vast. He could not bear it, so he suffered internal injuries. Now his life was saved, but he could not use his internal energy. Otherwise, it would cause his injuries to relapse. At that time Shen Shiyun was also present. Because of this, he regarded it as God's will. He followed it in fear and trepidation. Sure enough, in the six years he was in the Palace, his injuries did not relapse.
But recently he had participated in many important matters. He had also used his internal energy many times, so there were no signs of relapse. He thought that after a long time, his internal energy had been continuously increasing and gradually fusing with his internal energy. Therefore, his injuries were healed. When he fought again, he could use his internal energy without any worry. He thought that as long as he controlled his internal energy and did not overdraw his physical strength, there would not be any big problem. When he fought, although he could use his internal energy, he could achieve twice the result with half the effort.
Nangong Xue saw this and was half happy and half worried. Needless to say, she was worried because on the surface, Shixiong seemed to have recovered, but who knew if his internal injuries were really healed completely? What if it was just a few days of calm, but his internal energy accumulated into one and burst out at any time? Shixiong's injuries would be even more serious. He could only hope that this worry of his was unfounded and that it was not true. However, he was still alarmed from time to time. He thought to himself that once this matter was over, he would definitely ask someone to take a good look at his Senior Brother. At that time, he would be at ease.
After walking for a while, they arrived in front of the Wanshou Palace. The building faced south, and in front of it stood a three-cave mountain gate that symbolized the three realms of Heaven, Earth, and Man. In front of the mountain gate, there was a large hall known as the Jade Emperor Hall. After crossing the mountain, one would enter the main gate. The first courtyard was the front hall and two side rooms. Passing through the hall, one would enter the second courtyard. In the north was the "Three Pristines Hall". It was built in the style of a hall with double eaves and a glass roof. One kilometer above the bridge was the Ying Xian Bridge. In the distance, they could already see a Taoist temple, with two rows of guards in front of the temple.
However, there was a large bell at the bridgehead. There was nothing out of the ordinary about it. It was just an ordinary metal bell, painted copper yellow. However, with this bell blocking the way, there was no way to go around from both sides. The bell's body was huge, and it was difficult to leap over. Li Yijie smiled bitterly. "Looks like that person's intention is to force us to move the bell."
Lu Qian said, "Since you know, what's the use of just talking without actually doing it? Then move it quickly! Don't say that you're like a woman, with a weak body and weak hands, so you can't move it. " With both hands on his waist, the tip of his right foot tapped lightly on the ground like a drum. His contempt was clearly displayed. Nangong Xue glared at him angrily. "If you have the ability, then why don't you move it? What's the use of just making sarcastic remarks? "
Li Yijie raised his hand to silence her. "No, I keep feeling that there's something strange about it. We didn't encounter any obstacles along the way. If the Five Poison Sect didn't take any precautions, wouldn't anyone be able to invade? In any case, they're still a sect of their own. I don't believe that they would be that careless. " Nangong Xue said, "Maybe it's not that they're careless, but that they're arrogant. They think that they're invincible. Even if enemies come knocking on their door, they won't be afraid." Lu Qian smiled. "That's right. Alliance Leader Li, you should teach them a lesson. Move it for them to see!"
Li Yijie was provoked. He raised both hands to move the bell, but stopped and hesitated. Lu Qian smiled. "Don't dilly-dally! Is this bell going to eat people? Why don't you even dare to touch it? I'm afraid it won't be good if word gets out. "Nangong Xue angrily said," Shut your mouth. You don't know how to do anything else, but at least don't disturb my Shixiong! "
Li Yijie was deep in thought when a sparrow flew over his head. Li Yijie's reaction was extremely fast. He immediately slashed out with his sword. The sword's aura cut half of the sparrow's wing. The sparrow let out a mournful cry and fell straight down. Li Yijie raised his hand to catch it. Holding it in the hollow of his palm, he pushed it forward and pressed it against the bell's body. At first, the injured sparrow struggled with all its might. But as soon as it touched the bell, its struggles gradually slowed down. Finally, it stopped moving. The feathers on its body immediately turned purplish black.
Nangong Xue shivered. She couldn't help but feel frightened. "So there's poison on the bell! That was really dangerous. Shixiong, just now it was all thanks to you … all thanks to you … "At this moment, she was both frightened and gratified. Her heart was in turmoil, and she couldn't find the right words to say.
Lu Qian sighed. "What crime did the common people commit? That sparrow is also a living creature. It's not inferior to human life. You actually wanted to sacrifice it for this, depriving it of its innate right to live. From now on, it won't be able to fly freely in this vast world, and you won't be able to hear its clear chirps anymore. All living creatures have spirits. Humans are conceited and powerful, but they are also the most frightening. If you can't protect the weak, how can you talk about righteousness and righteousness? Killing an innocent little bird, how cruel! "
Nangong Xue was angry and amused at the same time. "Don't pretend to be a good person! If you were really that kind, you wouldn't … you wouldn't be you. "Lu Qian said," Even the most evil people can have moments of sudden benevolence. Li Yijie, today if you were that little bird, and the little bird was you, and he wanted to sacrifice you just to see a beautiful woman, let's see if you would still agree with his way of doing things. "
Nangong Xue angrily said, "See what beautiful woman? You're not serious at all when you speak! We didn't say that people are noble. Usually, for great things, even humans have to sacrifice thousands of people in order to bring peace to the world. Human lives can be sacrificed … no, I mean, there's no difference between humans and animals. When necessary, both can be sacrificed. "
Lu Qian said, "It's not the same. A voluntary sacrifice is considered noble. But have you ever thought about why that little bird sacrificed itself for you? Just because it can't speak, you guys make rash decisions for it? Who gave humans the right to do so? Or maybe it's whining to say that it doesn't want to, but you guys just ignore it. Taking a step back, humans sacrifice for their own kind, hoping that their descendants will be blessed. But what about this little bird? What's the point of it sacrificing itself for you? Whether or not you see the beauties of the Five Poison Sect won't benefit its bird companion in any way! If you think what I said is wrong, then tell me, what's the point? "
Nangong Xue said, "How would I know? You … your heart is black. Have you never killed anyone? What right do you have to talk about these principles? "Lu Qian said," There's a saying that 'lay down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the spot.' It's true that I've killed people, and it's also true that I've committed sins, but I shouldn't have taken lives. Alliance Head Li is also in the wrong. He's not a monk, so he doesn't have to abide by the precept of killing. But that doesn't mean that what he did was right. My mistakes are my mistakes. I've committed a heinous crime, but I can't turn his mistake into a right one. Am I wrong? "
Nangong Xue didn't know whether to laugh or cry. A principle was clearly and logically explained in such a clear and logical manner. It seemed that there was really no way to refute it. She finally understood why he was able to shut other people's mouths just by moving his lips. She couldn't refute him, so she stomped her feet and said angrily, "Who has time to talk nonsense with you? You better be serious! "Lu Qian smiled faintly and said," Alright, I'll be serious then. This is the territory of the Five Poison Sect, it really is unique. Actually, I've already guessed that there's probably poison on the bell … "
Nangong Xue said unhappily, "Don't try to give me advice in hindsight. Why didn't you say so earlier?" Lu Qian said, "I really did guess it, but I didn't say anything. I wanted to make Li Yijie suffer a little. Hey, then what do you think we should do now? "
While the two of them were arguing, Li Yijie had been carefully observing the surrounding terrain. There was no way out. Other than moving the bell in front of them, there was no other way. But the bell's face had a deadly poison that would kill anyone who touched it. This was really a difficult situation. Nangong Xue was also frowning in deep thought. After a long time she said, "Martial Brother, what do you think about splitting the bell?"
The reason the bell was troublesome was because it was blocking the way. As long as they could get out of this predicament, there were many ways to do it. But before, they were too anxious and limited. He happily said, "Not bad, that's a good idea!" He raised his sword and prepared to chop it. Nangong Xue thought that her words could help her martial brother. She smiled happily.
Lu Qian couldn't stand Nangong Xue's smiling face in front of Li Yijie. He said neither coldly nor warmly, "Alliance Leader Li, you want to use that rusty sword to chop the bell? Then I promise you, one chop! Just one chop! Your sword will be broken in two, and the bell will still be intact, and grinning at you. It's not good for you to use your internal energy. This counterattack will be hard for you. Once your internal energy recoils, your internal energy will become chaotic. I'm afraid you won't be able to keep your life. But it's good that you're dead. Then Xueer will be mine. Don't worry, I'll take good care of her for you. "
Nangong Xue was so angry that she wanted to slap him. But Li Yijie's words reminded her. Holding the Cangquan Dragon's Cry, she went forward and said, "Martial Brother, use this sword."
Lu Qian crossed his left arm in front of his chest, supported his right arm, and supported his chin with one hand. He said thoughtfully, "Oh, it's the famous Cangquan Dragon's Cry sword. It can cut through iron like mud. Whoever uses it, no matter if they have internal energy or not, can easily cut hard objects into pieces. This bell is even more so … "Nangong Xue felt proud. She smiled and said," That's right. It's good that you know. Let's see what you have to say this time. "
Lu Qian smiled and said, "This is physical work. How can I trouble Alliance Head Li? You have a precious body … no, a precious body. Haha, just leave it to me. Xueer, let me be your hero for once. "As he said this, he pretended to take the sword. But halfway through, he turned around and took the opportunity to stroke the back of Nangong Xue's hand.
Nangong Xue's whole body trembled. She remembered how he had molested her in the palace. That filthy touch was unforgettable. She was unable to restrain her anger and said, "You shameless pervert! Go to hell! I'll kill you! "She turned her sword and stabbed it toward his shoulder. She cursed," You want the sword, right? Come on! I'll give it to you! "
Lu Qian hastily dodged to the side, but the sword had already cut off a piece of his sleeve. Nangong Xue didn't give him a chance to catch his breath. She turned her sword around and chopped it toward his neck. Lu Qian tilted his head back to avoid the attack. With a tap of his toes, he dashed behind her. With one hand around her waist and the other on her arm, he reached forward to grab the sword. His expression was still full of ridicule. He clicked his tongue and said, "What a fast sword! My wife is so heartless. Do you really want to kill your husband? "
Nangong Xue didn't want to waste time talking to him. She elbowed him backward and lifted her heel at the same time. She kicked him hard in the chest and escaped from his embrace. Then, she raised her sword and chopped down on his head. Suddenly Li Yijie stretched out his sword to parry her attack. Two people, one had an excellent sword, the other had profound internal energy; as soon as they clashed, it was as if two martial art masters were fighting each other. Their palms were numb from the impact, they nearly lost their grip on their swords.
Nangong Xue angrily said, "Shixiong, what are you doing? Why won't you let me kill him? You don't know, this pervert … "
Li Yijie only wanted to see Ji Qiannian as soon as possible. The matter of the Seven Demons treasures couldn't be delayed any longer. Now Jiang Liechen had at least three of them. If this continued, it would be extremely bad. Obtaining the Seven Demons treasures was equivalent to obtaining the power to conquer the world. If Jiang Liechen obtained all of them, the world would never have peace.
