When Shao Heng returned to Yuquan Peak, Duan Jingcheng had already received news and was waiting for him in front of the Shouyi Palace.

"Senior Uncle Duan, can the ancestor be in the Purple Xuan Cave?" Shao Heng asked after a few simple greetings.

Duan Jingcheng said: "A few days ago, together with the two senior brothers Qingning and Qingwen, I went to Yuxu Mountain. ”

"What?" Shao Heng paused, and said in surprise: "It's actually the master who went, and even the master of Qingning went?"

Taihao Zhenren rarely interfered in the affairs of the sect, and during this time, he first took them to participate in the Lingji Cave Heaven Dispute, and then went to Yuxu Mountain to personally inquire about the clues of Jinyun City, which was really abnormal compared to the past.

And Qingning, as the first disciple of Taiwei Zhenren and the first choice for the successor to the head, the meaning of going to Yuxu Mountain in person is also unusual.

"Not bad. Originally, Senior Brother Qingjie had already gone there, but the news came back that he did not dare to determine some evidence, and that someone with advanced Taoism needed to go and investigate it personally. The first he ...... Since the head of the sect retreated, he and the first seat of Tailu have assisted the sect up and down, but as you know, the first seat has always ignored these. However, in the end, the Yuxu Mountain side is important, so he will personally go out. As for Senior Brother Qingning, he is the person who has the most extensive knowledge among the directors of the sect, except for the real person in charge, he knows the most, and invites him to ...... I'm afraid that there is indeed something on the side of Yuxu Mountain that can't be considered. ”

Duan Jingcheng is only a registered disciple, so it's good to know this.

Shao Heng didn't dwell on this issue any longer, but said, "What about my master?

Speaking of this, Duan Jingcheng's face bloomed with irrepressible joy, obviously extremely happy that Qingyan had recovered as before.

"Senior Brother Qingyan is still in Jinquan Bay, he has just recovered from his injuries, and he still needs to stabilize the lower realm, so he went into retreat soon after he came back. Duan Jingcheng frowned when he saw Shao Heng, and hurriedly said: "He told me before the retreat that this time will not be too long, and it is estimated that he will be out of the customs in two or three days." I have informed Abel and asked him to contact you as soon as possible. ”

Shao Heng was slightly relieved at this time, nodded and said, "That's good! Uncle Duan, I've been bothering you for the past few years." ”

Yuquan Peak is scarcely populated, Taihao Zhenren doesn't care about the facts, after Shao Heng worships the master, the jade key that controls the prohibition of Yuquan Peak is in his hands.

Because it is more risky for him to walk outside, when he goes out, Shao Heng will return the jade key that controls the general prohibition of Yuquan Peak to Taihao Zhenren. However, Taihao Zhenren handed it over to Duan Jingcheng again.

Previously, there was no Shao Heng among the people who returned from Lingji Cave Heaven, and Duan Jingcheng's heart was up and down, until Qing Yan personally told him that Shao Heng was safe.

Duan Jingcheng saw that Shao Heng was back, so he said: "Originally, the jade key should have been returned to you, but since Senior Brother Qingyan has resumed his cultivation, I am only a famous disciple, so it is inconvenient to control this jade key." So at that time, the first seat was in charge, and it was handed over to Senior Brother Qingyan to manage on his behalf, and when Senior Brother came out, he would probably hand it over to you again. ”

Shao Heng didn't care about this, but said: "This thing should be in the hands of Shizun, and Uncle Duan doesn't have to care." ”

Taihao real people go out, and Master Qingyan retreats.

Shao Heng's heart was full of doubts, and there was no one to ask or say about his words, and he didn't know what to do next. Therefore, he didn't notice that Duan Jingcheng's eyes changed from joy to doubt, and then from doubt to shock.

"You...... You...... Don't you ......" Duan Jingcheng stammered: "Could it be that you have already married Jindan?!"

At first, Duan Jingcheng didn't pay attention.

Shao Heng has not been in Weishan for the past few years, and Duan Jingcheng knows it.

Retreat Di Cuixuan, I can hide it from others, but I can't hide Duan Jingcheng, who manages the top and bottom of Yuquan Peak.

In order to avoid the leakage of news, Duan Jingcheng also transferred Di Cuixuan, who was Ming Yes and Ming Fei, and no longer let any Dao Tong servants approach.

He knew that Shao Heng was extremely talented, and his cultivation was not slow.

He also knew that when he left Cunwei and went to the Beihai Lingji Cave Heaven, Shao Heng's cultivation was already in the condensation stage and had caught up with him.

But Duan Jingcheng looked at Shao Heng carefully at this time, only to see that his divine light was clear, and the glow above his head was shining, but his true cultivation was like a cloud, and he couldn't see it thoroughly, and he was stunned for a long time before he realized in horror: This can only be the case when Shao Heng's cultivation far surpasses himself.

After Shao Heng returned to the sect, Duan Jingcheng was the first person to notice this.

Tailu Zhenren was distracted at the time and didn't check his cultivation; Ouyang Cheng was mostly focused on Ouyang Wei and later Holly; as for Xiao Zhuo, with his temperament, even if he saw it, he wouldn't say anything.

Therefore, as soon as Duan Jingcheng said this, Shao Heng realized that he was now in the sect, and he was already among his peers, together with Shen Yuanxi, as the only two Jindan monks, and even surpassed several uncles of the "Qing" generation.

Shao Heng thought about it, sooner or later, this matter would be known to others, but it was a bit shocking. He doesn't have the deep background and foundation of Shen Yuanxi, and if he is exposed too early, it will easily cause unnecessary trouble, so he said: "There is a breakthrough by chance, and I ask Uncle Duan not to talk about it for the time being." ”

"Okay, good!" Although Duan Jingcheng was a little shocked, he was more happy than surprised, and immediately decided to keep his mouth shut.

Taihao Zhenren is no more, Qingyan Zhenren is in retreat, Shao Heng can only return to Di Cuixuan's residence first.

After several years outside, Duan Jingcheng in order to avoid the leakage of the news of Shao Heng's absence, no one took care of Dicuixuan, although the courtyard was still clean with the support of the formation, but the crazy green grass and the increasingly green bamboo almost occupied the entire courtyard.

However, in this way, it corresponds more to the name of "Dicui".

As soon as Shao Heng saw such a scene, he let himself go, and only cleaned up a little bit, but added a kind of artistic conception of winding paths and seclusion.

Returning to the house and sitting down, Shao Heng went through everything one by one in his heart, only to feel that there was a heavy stone pressing on his heart.

The strange people who appeared in the Lingji Cave Heaven did not have the slightest clue, and all the information that Shao Heng had tracked down before came to an abrupt end with the ashes of Jiang Shi's suicide.

In the matter of Jinyun City, the person who did it must be the person in the Yunlai Pavilion, but what kind of means it is, we still need to wait for Taihao Zhenren to come back to Qingning Zhenren to know a thing or two.

As for the interception of Shanhezhu and the deaths and injuries of various families, he can only wait for Shen Yuanxi to learn the news from Qingjing Zhenren before he can make other judgments.

In addition, there is also the matter of Fu Anning.

Shao Heng's eyes darkened when he thought of this.

In the past few years, he has been out as a "demon", and his subordinates have also been dyed with a lot of blood, but at least the people he killed are all extremely vicious and have a clear conscience.

However, Fu Anning's death, although it was not done by his own hands, was caused by him, which made Shao Heng struggle several times in his heart, and re-examined himself several times, almost affecting Dao Xin.

What made him even more uncomfortable was that he was still skeptical.

Shao Heng was hesitant to see Lu Ji and Zhou Zi'an now, and asked if they were paying attention to the jade situation in the cave, but outside Di Cuixuan, Duan Jingcheng, who had already left, went and returned.

"Uncle Duan?" Shao Heng went out to take a look, and when he saw that Duan Jingcheng seemed to be returning in a hurry, he couldn't help but ask strangely.

Duan Jingcheng waved his hand, a little uncomfortable with the title of "Senior Uncle", but it seemed that the matter was more urgent, and only said: "Senior Sister Qinglan of Tianyou Peak just sent someone to pass the word, saying that something went wrong with the matter you asked her to arrange, it sounds a little serious, and said that you should go over." ”

"What did I entrust her to arrange?" Shao Heng chewed a little bit, and suddenly woke up: the matter he entrusted to Qinglan recently was only the matter of Chen Taichen, the heir of the immortals.

There had been so much going on in recent times that he had almost forgotten about this person.

The yellow silk that depicted the spiritual veins of Shenzhou, as well as the secret connection between the four sects revealed above, all came to Shao Heng's mind at this time.

Shao Heng's face immediately turned grim, and he immediately set off for Tianyou Peak.

After learning of Chen Taichen's disappearance, Shao Heng's face was ugly and quite ugly: "It's gone?

Qinglan Dao said quietly: "The person you brought back, I will settle him in the hidden place of the side peak. Every day, a disciple was sent to bring him food......"

Hearing this, Shao Heng's face darkened, obviously remembering that Chen Taichen was the same when he was locked up under the Diping Pass before: it was clear that he could open up the valley, but he was greedy for words.

"A few days ago, that disciple hurriedly came to report that this person had disappeared into Tianyou Peak. Qinglan frowned and said, "Some time ago, I was disturbed by some miscellaneous things and left for a few days. I heard that that person somehow had hysteria, and he rushed to the main peak of Tianyou, saying that he wanted to see Yuan Xi and even Uncle Taihao, but he was driven back. Since you have carefully entrusted this man to me, I suspect that this man must be unusual, and intend to see him when he returns. Just after returning, the person disappeared. ”

Shao Heng listened quietly.

According to Jiang Shi, the first day was normal, but the next day the building was empty, and the room was neat, as if no one had ever lived. ”

"Slow, Jiang Shi?" Shao Heng's eyes flashed: "Why is he?"

"Originally, the disciple I arranged was afraid that it would be troublesome, so I found Jiang Shi to replace it. When Qing Lan mentioned Jiang Shi, her tone did not move, without the slightest wave, only a trace of strangeness flashed in her eyes.

After that, a brocade bag appeared in her hand and handed it to Shao Heng: "I personally explored the man's residence, and only found this on the futon. In addition, there is no sign of breaking into the door or forcibly abducting people, and it is indeed as if he left by himself. It's just that this person's cultivation doesn't seem to be profound, so I'm also very curious about how he can quietly leave Cunwei. ”

"Thank you, aunt, my disciple has retired. After Shao Heng took the intact bag, he said goodbye and left.

Inside the house, Qing Lan lowered her eyes, as if she was a little puzzled and a little stunned.

After Shao Heng said goodbye to Qinglan Dao Chang, he opened the brocade bag when he went out, and there was only an irregular and very ordinary jade pendant in it. On one side of the jade pendant is a bare mountain carved in a clumsy way, and on the other side is a line of words carved with silver hook iron:

"There is no way to go. ”

"What do you mean?" Shao Heng looked at the jade pendant over and over again, quite puzzled.

The bag left by Chen Taichen did not have any mark, nor did it indicate that he left it to Shao Heng.

But Shao Heng had a thought in his heart: these words were specially left to him by Chen Taichen.

On the horizon, the sun has turned westward, it is the hottest time, Shao Heng looked at the ordinary jade pendant in his palm, and suddenly his breath was stagnant for no reason, and he was cold all over his body in the hot summer.
