"I'm afraid. ”

I looked at her straight and said, "But I know that Uncle Shi is a Sword Saint of the Righteous Path, and he will never kill innocents indiscriminately, and the relationship between me and Li Qingyin is not a heinous crime. ”

"Hmph, quibble!"

I continued: "Uncle Shi also said that everything starts with me, so why punish Li Qingyin?"

Shangguan Nanfeng was surging with surging sword intent, as if standing in a sea of swords, the cultivation of the sword path was already unfathomable, she squinted her eyes, and said, "What, you want to be punished instead of her, kneeling outside the mountain gate?"

"I am a disciple of Bailu Academy, and I only kneel to the master, not to the master. ”

"Humph!"

Shangguan Nanfeng flicked her sleeves, the door of the palace closed again, she flew into the sea of fog, and only a very ethereal voice came: "Whatever you want, but, you don't care about the affairs of my Tianfeng Academy!"

……

I was a little speechless, turned around and walked in front of Li Qingyin.

"Daughter-in-law, don't kneel. ”

"Nope. ”

She looked at me, the resolute light in her beautiful eyes softened a little, and said: "Master ordered me not to see you again, Qingyin can't do it, I can only kneel and redeem myself like this, you don't have to persuade me, this is the path I chose myself." ”

"But I feel sorry for you......"

"You ......"

Her beautiful eyes were shrouded in a layer of light mist, and she suddenly whispered, "What you said is true?"

"Do you need to talk about that?"

I sat on the stone steps beside her, it was cold, although Li Qingyin was strong in the flesh, but kneeling on such a cold and hard ground, kneeling for a day, I was afraid that my knees would not be able to stand it, so I pulled the robe of the chief disciple of the Holy Palace, spread it on the ground, and said, "It is soft here, you can kneel in another place." ”

Her beautiful face turned red: "Don't ......"

"Oh well. ”

I stayed with her quietly, and after a while, I said, "Are you hungry?"

"A little bit ......"

"I have here the rare delicacies brought back from the Empress's birthday ceremony, you can taste them. Carefully took out the delicious food in the space bone ring, took out a handful of fairy potatoes and handed it to her, and said with a smile: "It's delicious." ”

"Really?"

"Well, taste, am I still going to lie to you?"

Her beautiful eyes were full of anticipation, and she carefully picked up a fairy potato and took a bite, and the gloom on her face was swept away, replaced by a heart-pounding smile: "It does taste good......

"It also has the effect of promoting cultivation, eat more. ”

"Hmmm......"

After eating three immortal potatoes in a row, her face turned red: "I'm full......"

"Good. ”

Putting away the fairy potato, there was a girlish fragrance from my nose, I couldn't help but shake my heart for a while, and said in a low voice: "Daughter-in-law, do you really want to kneel here all the time?"

"The master didn't forgive me, so I kept kneeling. ”

"Uncle Shi has such a stubborn temper, just like you, what year and month will you kneel?" I frowned and said, "It's better to be like this...... I'll go find the two old courtyard masters in the Sword Pavilion and ask them to intercede, maybe Master Nanfeng will listen to them. ”

"Don't. ”

She insisted a little, and said softly: "It was Qingyin who made the master angry, if you let the old courtyard master intercede, this is Qingyin's unfilial piety to the master, if you care about me, don't mention this matter again." ”

"You're a donkey...... "I couldn't help but say.

Her eyes were like water, staring at me: "Who do you say is a donkey......"

"I'm me, okay?"

She couldn't help laughing, her beautiful appearance was like a spring breeze melting into a pool of autumn water, and said, "Don't make me laugh, I'm punishing you for kneeling, this is an extremely serious matter." ”

"I know. ”

After a while, I said, "Just like Uncle Shi said, this matter is all caused by me, so I feel very sorry for you, daughter-in-law, this matter should not be borne by you alone." ”

Her beautiful eyes were dark: "Then what do you want?"

"I'll kneel with you. ”

"But...... You just said that you only kneel to the master, not to the master. ”

"I kneel to you. ”

With that, I stood up, walked to the stone steps in front of her, knelt down with a flick of my robe, and said, "It happens to be the direction of Bailu Academy, which is equivalent to kneeling to the master." ”

"But you kneel before me......"

Li Qingyin's face was flushed, her big eyes were full of agility, and Xia Fei's cheeks were beautiful: "This look...... Is it a worship hall? I'm afraid that the master will be even more angry. ”

I couldn't help but blush: "yes, it doesn't seem to be appropriate." ”

Standing up, standing side by side with her again, kneeling on one knee in front of Miaoyi Palace, I whispered: "Uncle Shi, I kneel here with her, no matter what happens, I will bear it with her, please Uncle Shi to calm his anger!"

Inside, there was no response.

So, we knelt quietly like this, fortunately, the cultivator's body is strong, and if you are an ordinary person, I am afraid that you will not be able to bear it for a few hours at most, and this place has completely become a forbidden place, none of the disciples of Tianfeng Academy dare to approach within a hundred zhang, otherwise they will inevitably be angered, and even a disciple of the inner courtyard wanted to lean over, but was slapped away by a master uncle, which was very fierce.

……

In the blink of an eye, the night passed, and in the early morning, the sun in the east erupted, and the brilliance fell on the mountains, but the mist had not yet dispersed, and a trace of mist came like a ribbon, forming dew on the branches.

Li Qingyin was still kneeling, her white dress was spotless, her chest was straight, she was propping up her placket, and the rusty gold lines of the saint's dress were shining in the sunrise, she was motionless, a pair of starry eyes looked at the direction of Miao Yigong, her long eyelashes were curved, provoking a fine mist, beautiful as a Lingbo fairy, and her every move was full of fairy rhyme.

I knelt on one knee, holding the fairy bone sword in one hand, wisps of mist swirling around my body, and there was a sword dao artistic conception surging inside, and I had already entered the realm of kendo comprehension, since I was here to kneel, I was not idle, and continued to practice kendo, in order to be able to break through the early stage of the half-saint realm earlier, once I stepped into the middle stage of the half-saint realm, maybe I had the strength to fight with the next saint.

At this moment, a figure floated in and knelt in front of the Holy Palace, it was Ouyang Mengyue, the chief of the Miaoyi Palace.

"Master, Ouyang Mengyue asks to see!" she said in a deep voice.

In the palace, Shangguan Nanfeng's voice came: "If you want to intercede for your Qingyin Senior Sister, just step down." ”

Ouyang Mengyue frowned: "But Master, the disciple thinks that even though Senior Sister can't pass the love barrier, it still doesn't affect her path, three days ago, Senior Sister challenged the Half-Saint List, and now she is ranked third, isn't this enough to prove that her Dao heart is firm?"

"Ouyang Mengyue!"

Shangguan Nanfeng's voice was a little stern: "Do you also want to learn from your Qingyin Senior Sister to disobey the master?"

"The disciple didn't dare to ...... Disciple retire!"

Ouyang Mengyue stood up and walked in front of Li Qingyin, her beautiful eyes were full of sadness, and she said in a low voice: "Senior sister, Mengyue can't do anything about it, you ...... You'll have to continue to be punished. ”

"It's okay, you go. ”

"Hmm!"

Ouyang Mengyue glanced at me with a complicated expression, and then floated away.

I was secretly surprised in my heart, Li Qingyin is now ranked third on the Half-Saint List? In this way, she had already surpassed Yang Si Chendu three days ago and became the strongest human in the Half-Saint List, and this daughter-in-law of mine is really not ordinarily strong.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" she glanced at me.

"Third on the Half-Saint List?"

"Hmmm......"

"Even the descendants of the Holy Beast have been defeated by you?"

"Is it difficult?"

Me: "......"

……

It wasn't until noon that the door finally opened, Shangguan Nanfeng stepped out, glanced at us lightly, and said, "Qingyin, when was the last time you challenged the Sword Pavilion?"

"Venerable Qiqi, a month ago. ”

"Go ahead, challenge the eighth floor of the Sword Pavilion, and come back to see me when you win. ”

"Yes, Master!"

Li Qingyin stood up, her delicate body couldn't help but shake slightly, and she almost fell to her knees again, her face was slightly pale, she looked at me, and said, "Why don't you go with Qingyin soon?"

As if I was on the verge of amnesty, I turned to Shangguan Nanfeng and bowed: "Master Nanfeng, the disciple is leaving." ”

"Go ahead. ”

Shangguan Nanfeng's voice was lukewarm, and he couldn't hear any feelings, but he raised his hand and threw out a jade bottle to Li Qingyin, and said, "Take Linglu Dan and then challenge the Sword Pavilion, don't be in a hurry." ”

"Yes, Master!"

Li Qingyin's beautiful eyes swelled with a moving look, obviously, punishment will be punished, but Shangguan Nanfeng still loves her disciple the most.

The two of them rose to the sky and left Tianfeng Academy for Bailu Academy.

In the clouds, I frowned and said, "Uncle Shi directly asked you to challenge the eighth layer of the Sword Pavilion, is it too much?" I heard that the guardian of the eighth layer of the Sword Pavilion is a sword saint......

"The teacher is dignified, and it is for my good. She said quietly.

"That's too harsh. ”

I was a little worried: "Once you enter the Sword Pavilion and challenge a Sword Saint, what should I do if I lose? Will the town guards use killing intent? If they do, what should I do, have you thought about it? Every time you come out of the Sword Pavilion, I see the injuries, and those town guards have no sense of proportion in their attacks, all of them are killers." ”

Li Qingyin's beautiful eyes widened: "I know you care about Qingyin, but you don't want me to continue to kneel in front of the mountain gate, right? Only by challenging the Eighth Layer Sword Pavilion can I prove that my Dao Heart has not been disturbed, otherwise...... Shizun will also prevent Qingyin from meeting you again. ”

"Hmm. I nodded.

She looked at me again, and stopped talking.

"If you have anything to say, you can say. ”

"That ......" her voice was like a gnat, "Qingyin said one thing, you must not be angry." ”

"You say. ”

"You're still too weak now, how can you be a Taoist companion with a clear voice, you have to work harder......"

After speaking, her pretty face turned red, and I was hit hard, who in the upper realm didn't know that Li Qingyin, the Holy Maiden of the Heavenly Wind, was known as the first person of the younger generation, and the pride in her temperament was probably far better than anyone else, and it was quite euphemistic for her to say this.

……

Since that's the case, then after she finishes challenging the Sword Pavilion, I'll go into retreat, and I won't go out of the level without breaking through the early stage of the half-saint.
