"Elder Shen, this kid is deliberately delaying time!" Without waiting for Shen Muzhi to answer, Qi Ming said another word towards Shen Qifeng.

Shen Qifeng sneered: "Elder Qi don't worry, no one will come to save him today!" As he spoke, he lowered his head to look at the jade ornament in his hand again.

It's just that the seal on this jade ornament is indeed something he has never seen, and if he wants to unlock it, I'm afraid he really has to do it himself.

Shen Qifeng thought about it, his face was a little gloomy again, he raised his eyes to stare at Shen Muzhi, and said, "Unlock the seal, otherwise you don't want to see Su Hua again!"

When Shen Muzhi heard this, he laughed: "Elder Shen said this as if you had planned to abide by the agreement and let me see Su Hua before!"

Shen Qifeng's expression froze, and then he snorted coldly, and said: "Shen Muzhi, don't think that I won't kill you! Your seal does have some doorways, but I can't unlock it, it doesn't mean that no one in this world can unlock it, it's just to spend a little more time! This secret realm won't run around here, so why not spend a little more time? Let me tell you, if you are interested, maybe you can still save a small life at that time, if you are not interested, not only will your own life not be saved, but that demon girl will not have a good end! So, you'd better figure it out for yourself!"

Hearing Shen Qifeng mention Su Hua, Shen Mu's heart couldn't help but hurt, but at this time, the seal on this jade ornament was the only bargaining chip in his hand, with the grudge between him and Shen Qifeng, if he unlocked the seal at this time, he would definitely die. If he died, Su Hua's life in the Great Sword Gate would only be even more sad.

So, no matter what, you can't lose that only chip!

Thinking of this, Shen Muzhi said: "Since Elder Shen is so sure that there are other people in this world who can break my seal, then you can kill me now! Anyway, now that I have fallen into your hands, whether I am dead or alive is all in your thoughts." I don't have anything to struggle with!, but if Elder Shen wants to threaten me to break the seal, then don't think about it!"

Shen Muzhi's open-minded attitude made Shen Qifeng feel like he didn't know where to start.

The most important thing is that Shen Muzhi's calm attitude at this moment made him even more jealous and didn't dare to kill him, what if the seal was really only he could break it? Although he didn't believe it very much, he was not afraid of 10,000 just in case!

At this time, Qi Ming suddenly interjected: "Elder Shen, do you want to try something for me?"

Shen Qifeng glanced at him, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "I don't bother Elder Qi about this." ”

Qi Ming was rejected by him, and after laughing, he didn't force it. Of course, you can't force it.

Shen Qifeng looked at Shen Muzhi again, staring at him with a cold gaze, as if he was going to cut him with a thousand knives.

Shen Muzhi stood there, extremely calm. Now, Xuan Cheng and He Xian have all left here, for him, the worst is nothing more than a dead end, he has nothing to fear!

After a while, Shen Qifeng finally relieved: "What do you want?"

Shen Muzhi smiled slightly and said, "Three things!"

Shen Qifeng looked stunned, and shouted: "Shen Muzhi, don't think about it!"

Shen Muzhi stood there, smiling and not saying a word, just looking at him. Shen Qifeng was furious, but finally relented and said, "You say!"

Shen Muzhi said: "First thing, before it gets dark today, I want to see Su Hua!"

When Shen Qifeng heard this, his eyes narrowed, and then he nodded and said, "Okay, I promise you!"

"Second, I want Zhao Zhengguang to personally escort Su Hua here!" Shen Muzhi said again.

Shen Qifeng was silent for a few breaths, and then nodded in agreement. Then he asked, "What about the third one?"

Shen Muzhi grinned and said, "Kill Qi Ming!"

Shen Qifeng and Qi Ming suddenly changed color.

Shen Qifeng shouted angrily: "Shen Muzhi, you are looking for death!"

Shen Muzhi stood there motionless, looked at him calmly, and said, "I'm here, Elder Shen can kill if he wants, and he will use his sword!"

Shen Qifeng's face was dark, staring at him, and after taking a deep breath, he suppressed the anger in his heart and shouted at him: "Change conditions!"

"Does Elder Shen know who that Xu Yi is?" Shen Muzhi asked as he looked at Shen Qifeng.

Shen Qifeng was stunned.

"He is a disciple of the Great Ming Sword Sect. Qi Ming also killed an elder of the Great Ming Sword Sect, do you think that after opening the secret realm when the time comes, this Qi Ming will save Xu Yi's life?"

Shen Qifeng's brows moved.

"Elder Shen, this kid is completely nonsense. That elder of the Great Ming Sword Sect was killed by Xu Yi. The grievances between them have been going on for a long time, if Elder Shen doesn't believe it, he can immediately ask someone to investigate!" Qi Ming was a little anxious.

Shen Muzhi sneered, and suddenly turned around and shouted to Xu Yi, who was hiding in the distance: "Xu Yi, Qi Ming said that Yuan Changqing was killed by you, is it true or false?"

Xu glanced at a lot of emotions at once, and in an instant, all of them were invisible, and after secretly gritting his teeth, he shouted loudly: "Then Yuan Changqing is also an Upper Realm Elder no matter what, how can I kill him as a disciple of the Pyloric Realm!"

"Elder Shen, you heard it!" Shen Muzhi looked back at Shen Qifeng and said.

Shen Qifeng looked at him, then at Qi Ming and Xu Yi, frowning and silent.

Qi Ming glanced back at Xu Yi, then swept over Shen Muzhi, and finally said to Shen Qifeng: "Elder Shen, no matter who killed Yuan Changqing, this has nothing to do with the transaction between us......

"It doesn't matter how it happens!" Shen Muzhi suddenly grabbed the words: "What kind of sect is the Great Ming Sword Sect, this Xu Yi is an inner disciple." Today, Elder Shen, if you cooperate with Qi Ming, then in the future, the Great Ming Sword Sect will track it down, and the Great Sword Sect will definitely not be able to escape the involvement. I don't think Elder Shen wants the Great Sword Sect to have such a strong opponent for nothing!"

"The people of the Great Ming Sword Sect don't know anything about this spiritual mansion and the secret realm. Even if Xu Yi dies here today, the people of the Great Ming Sword Sect will never find any clues!" Qi Ming shouted with great determination.

"How can Elder Qi be sure that the people of the Great Ming Sword Sect don't know anything about the secret realm?" Shen Muzhi smiled.

Qi Ming couldn't help but change color.

Shen Qifeng also frowned.

"You notified the Great Ming Sword Sect?" Qi Ming asked rhetorically, twisting his eyebrows. As soon as the words fell, without waiting for Shen Muzhi to answer, his mind changed, and he immediately replied by himself: "Impossible! You didn't know that Xu Yi and I would appear today, and you couldn't have informed the Great Ming Sword Sect!"

Shen Muzhi said: "I didn't expect you to appear here today. However, if I hadn't returned the honor to you, wouldn't I have been very sorry for Elder Qi's enthusiasm after leaving Daming, I quietly asked someone to send a letter to the people of the Daming Sword Sect, which mentioned Yuan Changqing's death and Xu Yi being taken away by you! Of course, in order to make this matter more real and credible, I naturally revealed some things about the secret realm! So, I think it is estimated that the people of the Daming Sword Sect have already been guests in your sect at this time, and they are waiting for you to go back! As he spoke, Shen Muzhi suddenly turned his head towards Shen Qifeng: "Elder Shen, you said that if Qi Ming leaves here today and turns around and meets someone from the Great Ming Sword Sect, will he drag you into the water together?"

Shen Qifeng's face changed suddenly.

"Elder Shen, this kid is clever and scheming, you don't have to believe his words! It is impossible for him to reveal the matter of the secret realm to the people of the Great Ming Sword Sect!" Qi Ming was really anxious, and even his voice lost his stability.

Shen Qifeng didn't answer his words.

Shen Muzhi smiled slightly, and said to Shen Qifeng: "Elder Shen, if you kill this Qi Ming today, it will be to save Xu Yi from danger, and you will help the Great Ming Sword Sect kill an enemy!" As he spoke, he turned to Xu Yi again and shouted, "Xu Yi, did you say?"

Xu Yi could only shout with Shen Muzhi's words again: "Yes!"

"Elder Shen, either make a feud with the Great Ming Sword Sect, or let the Great Ming Sword Sect owe you a favor, how to choose, you can do it! Moreover, Qi Ming is dead, this secret realm belongs to your Great Sword Sect alone! As for Xu Yi's side, I think as long as you hand over this spiritual mansion to him, he promises to keep his mouth shut!" Shen Muzhi looked at Shen Qifeng's expression, and his heart was extremely calm at this time.

He knew that Qi Ming was already more than lucky!

Qi Ming also felt it.

So as soon as Shen Muzhi's words fell, Qi Ming suddenly stabbed Shen Muzhi with a sword, and then didn't look at the result, turned around and swept into the air, wanting to escape.

Seeing this, Shen Qifeng immediately chased after him.

Shen Muzhi stood in place, looking at the sword light that struck, not worried. Sure enough, just when this sword light was about to engulf him, a person suddenly appeared on his side, grabbed him, and then dodged away.

There was a boom, mud and rocks were splashed, and shards of wood flew sideways.

At this time, Shen Qifeng and Qi Ming were already entangled in the air. Another of the two people who came with Shen Qifeng also joined in.

That Qi Ming's strength was slightly higher than Shen Qifeng's, but after another person joined, this advantage was suddenly gone, and there was even a faint tendency to fall into the downwind.

But the gray-robed man on the side of the Great Sword Gate didn't make a move, Shen Muzhi looked around and found that the person was gone.

I think that the gray robe should be chasing Xuan Cheng and them.

However, as long as Xuan Cheng and Yu Xin and He Xian meet each other, and the three of them join forces, even if there is more than one gray robe, there is no need to worry.

Now Shen Muzhi is worried about Su Hua alone.

I don't know how she's doing now, whether she's still safe!

Just as he was thinking about it, Xu Yi, who had been hiding in the distance before, probably felt that everyone couldn't take care of him at this time, so he wanted to escape.

Shen Muzhi watched him leave in a hurry and sneered.

Sure enough, in less than a moment, he was forced back with a sword.

"You can't escape! Accept your fate!" Shen Muzhi looked at his embarrassed appearance and said lightly.

Xu Yi stared at him hatefully and didn't answer.

Seeing this, Shen Muzhi didn't have the heart to say a few words to him.

However, it didn't take long for Xu Yi to open his mouth: "If you hadn't called her back with the spirit bead you gave from Kite at the beginning, there would not have been such a thing as today!

When Shen Muzhi heard this, he turned his head to look at him: "Xu Yi, you are to blame for all this today! If you hadn't had bad intentions and killed Yuan Zhen to blame us, there would be no such things today! So, if you want to blame you, you will blame yourself! Besides, during this time, if I hadn't saved you several times, you would have died a long time ago!"

Xu Yi's face was pale and speechless, and after staring at him for a moment, he finally snorted and turned his head away from talking.

At this time, probably seeing that the three of them in the air were unable to distinguish the winner in a short period of time, another sword light rose into the sky in the distance, and quickly joined the battle group. Soon, this originally stalemate began to fall to the side.

After a stick of incense, a figure fell from the sky and smashed into the dense forest below.

Qi Ming is defeated!

With the style of those people in Jianshoufeng, Qi Ming will not survive nine times out of ten. Shen Qifeng: These people won't leave themselves with trouble!

"Qi Ming is dead!" Shen Muzhi said softly.

Xu Yi heard it on the side, his face was a little pale, his eyes looked fixedly ahead, and he didn't make a sound.

After a while, Shen Qifeng and the others came back.

Shen Qifeng had some blood stains on his body, and his murderous aura had not yet been collected, and he didn't know if it was intentional or because he couldn't put it away because of the agitation of qi and blood for a while.

Shen Muzhi was better, Xu Yi couldn't bear it a little, and took two steps back before he could barely hold on.

"Qi Ming is already dead!" Shen Qifeng stared at Shen Muzhi, and in his cold voice, it seemed to be carrying a sharp sword.

When Shen Muzhi heard this, he smiled and said, "Then congratulations to Elder Shen for solving a big trouble!"

"Break the seal!" Shen Qifeng said after staring at him.

Shen Muzhi said: "Elder Shen, is this a fight and confused? There are two more conditions, as long as Elder Shen does it, I will keep my promise!"

Shen Qifeng squinted, and the murderous aura on his body surged.

Shen Muzhi was still very calm.

After a while, Shen Qifeng gathered all his murderous energy, turned around and ordered the people behind him to notify the door and bring Su Hua in. But in the words, Zhao Zhengguang was not mentioned.

Shen Muzhi couldn't help frowning, and after thinking for a while, he reminded him: "Elder Shen, I want to see Zhao Zhengguang personally escort Su Hua here, otherwise, I won't break the seal!"

Shen Qifeng ignored him.

Shen Muzhi looked at him, and his heart suddenly became a little anxious.

According to the agreement at the beginning, Su Hua at this time should be in the small plum garden on Zhengyang Peak. As long as the transaction on their side is over, Zhao Zhengguang will take Su Hua to leave the Great Sword Gate and go to Worm Mountain. At that time, such an agreement was made to prevent the people of Sword Head Peak from going back on their word. But the words of the people who listened to Shen Qifeng's orders just now, it seemed that Su Hua was not under Zhao Zhengguang's control.

If they really brought Su Hua here without Zhao Zhenguang's escort, then he would definitely be restrained at that time.

Thinking of this, Shen Muzhi's mood suddenly became solemn.

Watching Shen Qifeng's people leave, Shen Mu's thoughts flew in his heart, but for a while, he couldn't think of a better countermeasure.

Now we can only hope that Zhao Zhengguang will appear with Su Hua at that time.

Time passes slowly.

There is a feeling of torment like a year.

It's only been an hour or two, but it feels like a century has passed.

Finally, someone came.

Several brilliant sword lights streaked through the sky and fell into the mountain pass. In the end, they landed near Shen Muzhi and them.

At the head is an incomparably familiar figure, even if it has not been seen for ten years.

Shen Muzhi looked at him, and suddenly his nose was sore, and he had the urge to cry.

Behind him, a woman followed. The woman was covered by Zhao Zhengguang for most of her figure, but the pale yellow dress still made Shen Mu recognize at a glance who she was.

Seeing the tears that Zhao Zhengguang could still hold back, he couldn't hold back for a while.

Decade......

Goodbye at last......

She walked out slowly from behind Zhao Zhengguang, her gentle gaze fell on his face through the veil, this strange and familiar face was a little different from the appearance in her memory. But the light in those eyes is still the same.

"Lord Zhao Feng, why are you here in person?" Shen Qifeng saw Zhao Zhengguang's appearance, and there was obvious surprise on his face.

As soon as his words fell, several sword lights came one after another.

It turned out to be the three of them who left before.

All three of them had injuries on their bodies, and it was obvious that they were not easy in the two hours just now.

At this point, there is no threat from Shen Qifeng's side.

Shen Muzhi still survived to this moment of victory after all.

......

......

A month later.

In the Taoist temple at the foot of the empty mountain.

Su Hua is now living in this temple with them.

Xu Ranran's girl and Su Hua get along very well, two people are one and one demon, one is still a child, and the other doesn't know how many years he has lived, but these two should be very different people, but they always seem to be able to talk together.

In the past month, He Xian has come a few times, just to sit and watch, talk and drink.

Yu Xin also came twice, sent some things, and said some words. But these words are not what Shen Muzhi wants to hear.

Lin Changying came once.

She always didn't like Su Hua very much, and she didn't like to talk too much, so she left after a long time.

The last one to come was Zhao Zhengguang.

His appearance, Shen Muzhi was both surprised and not surprised.

He stood outside the formation for a few moments before entering.

Shen Muzhi had already waited at the door of the Taoist temple, and when he saw him, he bent down and saluted.

Zhao Zhengguang stopped there, looked at him from afar, and after a while, said with a smile: "It's good!"

Shen Muzhi opened his mouth and wanted to answer something, but he just had a thousand words in his heart, but he didn't know how to say it.

There are some things that can't be returned after all.

"If you have something, just send a message!" Zhao Zhenguang said again.

Shen Muzhi lowered his gaze and snorted.

"Returned!" As soon as the words fell, Shen Muyi looked up, and the figure in the distance was gone.

Shen Muzhi stood there, looking at where he was standing, and after being stunned for a while, he turned around and returned to Guanzhong.
