Jun Wu Xie and Ji Inran walked side by side along the mountain path.
Both of them were silent along the way.
Walking on the path, they passed through the maple forest and saw a clear forest lake in front of them.
The mountain breeze was gentle and the lake was sparkling. The reflection of the maple forest in the lake formed a beautiful picture.
"I saw your duel on the Life and Death Platform today."
Ji Inran said softly. Under Jun Wu Xie's surprised gaze, she took off her shoes and socks and walked barefoot on the beach, leaving two lines of delicate footprints.
The afterglow of the setting sun fell on the beach, on her silver dress, and on her beautiful face.
The mountain breeze lifted her ink-black hair and gently fluttered it.
Looking at Ji Inran who was letting herself go, Jun Wu Xie couldn't help but smile.
When exactly was she the real her?
He was a little confused and couldn't see through the girl in front of him.
"I thought you didn't come today."
He also took off his shoes and socks and walked barefoot on the cold beach, following behind her and stepping on her footprints.
Her feet were too small, so small that they couldn't fit his feet.
He couldn't help but glance at them.
They were smooth and delicate, as if they were a work of art carved from the best jade in the world.
"I'll watch from afar."
Ji Inran suddenly stopped and turned around.
Jun Wu Xie was caught off guard and didn't have time to stop, so he bumped into her.
A soft and gentle body fell into his arms.
A faint fragrance entered his nose and refreshed his mind.
He was slightly distracted and lost his mind for a moment.
"Your … your sword intent is very strong …" Ji Yinlan subtly took two steps back, putting half a foot of distance between their bodies.
Jun Wu Xie smiled, her face suddenly flushed red, making her look more beautiful than a flower at that moment.
"What's the name of that sword move?"
Ji Inran quickly regained her composure. The red on her face faded, but her temperament was gentler than usual.
"Sword of the World."
"What a unique name …" Ji Yinlan was slightly taken aback. After thinking for a while, she said, "I felt an indescribable sense of the mortal world in your sword intent. Could this Sword of the Mortal World be related to the mortal world?"
He nodded and said, "Refine your heart in the mortal world, cultivate the sword of the mortal world, comprehend the will of the mortal world, and cultivate the strongest sword of the mortal world!"
"Ever since we first met, you have never disappointed me. The speed of your growth has far exceeded my expectations." Ji Inran had a slight smile on his face, but his tone was solemn as he said, "All these years, you're the only one who caught my eye."
"So you're saying that we appreciate each other?" Jun Wu Xie smiled happily and said, "Do you want to spar again?"
"Compared to fighting with you, I prefer to talk to you," Ji Inran refused and said, "Whether I'm strong or you're strong, it doesn't matter to me."
Jun Wu Xie was a little surprised. He did not expect her to refuse.
She was not like this when they were in Qingyang City.
"I have something for you." Ji Inran took out a jade talisman and said, "This is the token of the South Mountain Mystery Land in the Dragon's Ridge Mountains. It's the qualification token to enter the South Mountain Mystery Land."
"What is the South Mountain Mystery Land?"
Jun Wu Xie's heart skipped a beat. He remembered that the mysterious woman had said that a Mystery Land had appeared in the Dragon's Ridge Mountains recently. Could it be that it was the South Mountain Mystery Land?
Ji Inran lifted her long skirt and sat down on the bluestone beside the lake. She rested her chin on one hand and said, "The South Mountain Mystery Land is a special space left behind from a very long time ago. It should have been created by a strong master of a certain era. There may be things left behind by that strong master in the Mystery Land. After such a long time, there must be things like spiritual herbs and spiritual fruits that have been around for a long time. "
Jun Wu Xie looked at her in a daze. "For such an important Mystery Land, this token must be something that many people can't get. You gave it to me. What about yourself? "
"I don't have time to go. The conflict at the border is getting more and more intense. Something big is likely to happen. I may go to the border at any time."
"What's going on at the border?"
It was the second time that he had heard Ji Inran mention it.
Ji Inran just shook her head and didn't elaborate.
After a moment of silence, Jun Wu Xie said, "When will the South Mountain Mystery Land open?"
"It opened yesterday, but it will only open at the border. The space inside is not stable at the moment. Only those in the Star State dare to enter it. Don't be in a hurry to go. Wait a few more days until the space in the Mystery Land is stable. "
"Many strong masters will go to the South Mountain Mystery Land, won't they?"
"Yes." Ji Yinlan nodded and said, "However, the secret realms left behind by ancient experts were meant for the younger generation to search for opportunities. Usually, they would set a realm upper limit to prevent the older generation from entering, thus cutting off the opportunities for the younger generation."
"But you can't be careless. Although there is a realm limit, the upper limit is definitely not the Qi Condensation State. I'm afraid that the lowest level is the peak of the Grotto-Heaven Ten Transformation State or half a Star State. Moreover, the martial artists going to the South Mountain Mystery Land are not limited to the Great Zhou Dynasty. Many sects and forces in the entire Southern Region will send people there. "
"Among those people, there may be core disciples or even true disciples of the various sects whose realms are much higher than yours. There may even be older masters who don't hesitate to suppress their realms and take the risk to enter. "
"I understand."
Jun Wu Xie nodded. It seemed that the trip to the South Mountain Mystery Land was going to be very dangerous.
But no matter how dangerous it was, he had to go.
The Phoenix Divine Gold might be inside. Moreover, he might be able to find extremely high-grade Spirit Herbs in the Mystery Land. Those Spirit Herbs might be able to prolong Yueyao's life!
"Come to the Princess' residence in five days for my birthday banquet." Ji Inran put on her shoes and socks and stood up. She patted her clothes and took out a golden invitation card and handed it over.
"Your birthday is in five days?" Jun Wu Xie was stunned. He took the invitation card and put it away. He smiled and said, "I'll definitely come!"
"Actually, I don't like these things. But Father insisted on it for me. I can't go against his wishes."
They walked back along the beach, passed through the maple forest, and returned to the mountain path.
Ji Inran suddenly turned around and looked at him with her bright Star eyes. She said, "You have to work hard in your cultivation. I hope that one day, we can walk side by side and even walk ahead of me."
"I will."
Jun Wu Xie's voice was not very sonorous, but it was very firm and confident.
"I'll wait for you up ahead. Don't disappoint me."
After Ji Inran finished speaking, she turned around and left.
Jun Wu Xie looked at her back that was gradually getting farther and farther away. A smile gradually appeared on his face.
He turned around and was about to return to the sect when he saw an old man with white hair and a beard on the road.
This old man had appeared without a sound, causing him to be shocked.
He carefully sensed, but he could not detect the slightest fluctuation of Genuine Qi on the old man.
Obviously, this old man could not be an ordinary person.
Then, there was only one explanation.
That was, this old man's cultivation level was much higher than his. It was unfathomable!
"Young man, you're very good. Walk your own path. Don't be blinded by the scenery in front of you. Also, don't be confused by your heart."
"Senior, who are you?" Jun Wu Xie was a little confused. He said, "Senior, I really don't understand what you mean."
"Since that's the case, this old man will say it directly." The old man looked in the direction Ji Inran left and said indifferently, "This old man doesn't want you to have unrealistic fantasies in your heart. Some people are beyond your reach. Her future achievements are something you can only look up to and will never be able to reach."
The corner of Jun Wu Xie's eyes twitched slightly. He said, "You're talking about Ji Inran?"
"It's good that you understand."
The old man nodded.
"What do I understand?"
Jun Wu Xie's stubbornness came. If the old man did not say these words, he really did not have any thoughts. He only treated Ji Inran as a friend. However, the old man's arrogant attitude and disdainful words made him very unhappy.
He sneered and said, "It's our freedom to be together with whoever we want. What right do you have to interfere in our matters?"
Hearing this, the old man's face darkened. He said, "You really don't know what's good for you! This old man is talking nicely to you, but you don't listen. I'm afraid you'll get into trouble in the future! The gap between you and her is as big as the Milky Way. How can you imagine the heights she will reach in the future? You're not on the same level, but you insist on squeezing in. You're destined to break your head and bleed! "
"Then I'll have to thank you!" Jun Wu Xie looked directly at the old man's sharp eyes and said, "I don't care what achievements she will have in the future or how high she stands. I'll be at the same height as her. You don't have to worry about this!"
"Hmph! You really don't know the immensity of heaven and earth! "
The old man snorted and left in a huff. The space around his body distorted and he disappeared into thin air.
"Traveling through the void?"
Jun Wu Xie's expression was solemn. He had heard that Ji Inran's background was not just the royal family.
Now it seemed that her background was quite terrifying. With such a terrifying old man by her side, it was obvious that she had a terrifying background!
"Are you looking down on me? I'll reach your level sooner or later. When that time comes, I'll definitely be younger than you! "
He slowly clenched his fists.
He only wanted to befriend Ji Inran and did not have any improper thoughts in his heart. However, he was warned and humiliated for no reason!
