"We're keeping a distance to make sure you see us, and we're going to find you soon. When the time comes, even if we encounter any danger, you will be able to take it by surprise. ”

Seeing that the incompetence was healing Leng Yue, Zhuo Zichen nodded solemnly and whispered.

"Hmm," Incompetent and Leng Yue nodded in unison, and replied without saying anything more.

"Let's keep going, I don't think the road ahead will be so difficult!" The corners of Zhuo Zichen's mouth rose to reveal a confident smile, his eyes narrowed, and he looked at the forest in front of him with a faint outline under the hazy moonlight, and said softly.

Although he didn't know where Zhuo Zichen's confidence came from, seeing that the three Qingxuanzong people in front of him all looked calm, Mu Feng smiled slightly, waved goodbye to Incompetent and Leng Yue, and then followed closely behind the three of them and continued to move forward.

"They let you do it, you can do it, and it's very expensive for me to be overpowered."

Mu Feng had just walked far behind the three of them, and there was an incompetent and slightly mocking voice behind him, which suddenly made Mu Feng fall unsteadily, stabilize his body and look at Yin Feng beside him, both of them shook their heads with a wry smile and let out a light sigh, in this case, the person who can still say such things is probably the only one in the world.

The moon is thick, the night is deep, carefully walking in the mire, several times if it is not for Yin Feng to pull himself in time, Mu Feng would have been trapped in this deep mire, in this difficult quagmire I don't know how long I walked, in Mu Feng's feet are a little soft, in this kind of quagmire with strong adsorption force, every step in this kind of quagmire with strong adsorption force requires more strength than ordinary walking.

Mu Feng calculated in his heart, since entering this quagmire it has probably been more than an hour, although in this quagmire one foot deep and one foot shallow, he has to be careful everywhere to avoid falling into the bottomless swamp and dying, his speed has been restrained a lot, but he has probably walked more than ten miles.

The more you go forward, the more blurred the surroundings are, the light of the hazy hair moon shines on the mire but puts a thin white veil on the mire, it is difficult to see how far in the hazy haze, but in the distance, there is a sudden sound of a pleasant pipa in a mountain forest, and you can hear the sound of the flute under careful listening, the sound of the piano is mixed with each other, and the pleasant notes are transmitted to everyone's ears, so that Mu Feng and the others tremble in their hearts and stop on guard.

"What sound?" Mu Feng came to Zhuo Zichen's side, and subconsciously held the hilt of the jade ruler sword at his waist with his hand, looking at the misty mountains and forests in the distance with a solemn expression.

"That's where the Ancient Sword Sect is," Zhuo Zichen replied softly with a slight frown.

"Still watching singing and dancing so late?" Mu Feng said with some surprise, he was familiar with the sound of this ensemble of several instruments, and his daily entertainment in the palace was to watch the singers play and dance, although the rhythm was different, but as soon as he heard it, he knew that there must be a song and dance performance there.

"It's coming!" Just when Mu Feng felt strange and puzzled, Zhuo Zichen, Yin Feng, and Xia Ruolan suddenly made a defensive move, and the three of them surrounded Mu Feng in the middle.

The atmosphere at the scene instantly became tense, and Mu Feng's palms holding the sword began to break out in a cold sweat, and he gasped as he watched several figures slowly appear in the mire on the opposite side, and walked towards them in the dim night.

"I don't know what the noble ones are doing to visit my Ancient Sword Sect late at night?" When several young men wearing blue robes and carrying long swords appeared in front of Mu Feng, one of them, a dignified young man who looked a little similar to Yin Feng, and the gentle young man bowed his hand to Zhuo Zichen and whispered in confusion.

"Hehe, it's really waiting for us here" Although the young people in front of them looked quiet and docile, Yin Feng, who was standing next to Mu Feng, didn't think so, and leaned into Mu Feng's ear and whispered a chuckle.

The young men in front of them were wearing blue robes, with a white sword pattern embroidered on their chests, and the long swords on their backs looked similar to their height at first glance.

Usually cultivators rarely use weapons, of course, except for divine weapons, most of the cultivators of the immortal sect at most carry a short sword, or put a hidden blade on their bodies, this weapon is not used to fight, but more as a decoration and a status symbol, after all, it is not difficult for a cultivator to condense an air sword.

Although there is a difference between the air sword and the essence of the sword, after all, the air sword is made of soul energy, and the tenacity is not as good as the essence of the sword, especially some swords filled with the crystal nucleus of the demon beast are even more difficult to deal with, and the strength is not enough to control and condense the soul qi is not good, it is easy to be scattered by the essence of the sword, although the soul sword has a lot of flaws, but it is much sharper than the essence of the sword, so the two can be regarded as having their own merits, and the use of the soul qi sword is also convenient to call it to drive it away, unlike Mu Feng, who has to carry the sword on his back all day long.

Because the two have their own advantages and disadvantages, but the two can complement each other perfectly, so many cultivators will choose to use the light short sword as the soul qi to use, but the sword on the people in front of them is a bit exaggerated, nearly two meters long, not to mention that the cultivator will not use it, even those soldiers of the empire will not use a sword longer than themselves as a weapon.

"Hehe, Zhuo Zichen of Xia Qing Xuanzong, this is my junior sister and two junior brothers." Zhuo Zichen smiled back and said respectfully.

"Zhuo Zichen? The chief disciple of Qingxuan Sect seems to be called Zhuo Zichen, right? ”

"What are they doing here?"

Zhuo Zichen's words suddenly caused a few people in front of him to look stunned, and they talked about each other, although the voice was small, it was still heard clearly by Mu Feng and the others who were close to Chi Qi, in this quiet and silent environment, any wind and grass can arouse people's vigilance, let alone their conversation.

"Aren't you the chief disciple of the Qingxuan Sect?" After hearing the discussions of several people around him, the young man at the head turned to look at Zhuo Zichen with a puzzled and unbelievable expression.

Zhuo Zichen turned his head and looked at Xia Ruolan at each other, then smiled lightly and nodded at them, now there was no need for him to hide his identity at all. However, he was also very anxious in his heart, this secret infiltration mission seemed to be a failure, and he could only hope that after revealing his identity, he could rely on Incompetence and Leng Yue to find some clues.

Seeing that Zhuo Zichen actually admitted it, the young man in front of him and several disciples of the Ancient Sword Sect around him also had complicated expressions and fell into a short silence, and after a while, the sword eyebrows frowned slightly, and Zhuo Zichen arched his hand with a puzzled face and whispered, "Dare to ask Senior Brother, do you have a certificate?" ”

Faced with his question, Zhuo Zichen turned to look at Mu Feng and the three of them behind him smiled bitterly and shook their heads, they were now wearing plain linen clothes, how could they prove their identity if they didn't have any valuable clothes inside and out?

"If you don't believe it, can you recommend us to meet your sect's sect master Qiu Changsheng, Senior Qiu?" Zhuo Zichen chuckled and turned to the few people in front of him and said.

"Senior brother knows our sect master?" Several young people were surprised.

"A few years ago, I was fortunate enough to see it at the group of immortals of the Ancient Hell Sect," Zhuo Zichen replied with a smile and a sincere attitude.

"I see, the sect master is flowing in the water, please come with us."

"Flowing water? The seniors are really so elegant" Hearing him say this, Mu Feng and the others were stunned, and after a while, Zhuo Zichen chuckled.

"Tonight is our Ancient Sword Sect's annual sect meeting, and now the sect is very lively. I don't know why you're here at this time, brother? Sect Master Gang said that there are distinguished guests visiting, and we still don't believe it. The young man walking in front of Mu Feng nodded with a smile and replied.

"Well, I was supposed to come yesterday, but I didn't think about getting lost in this swamp, and I came to this point, if you hadn't appeared in time, I'm afraid we wouldn't know where to go now!" Zhuo Zichen's mind flashed after listening to his words, and he had already heard of the sect meeting of the Ancient Sword Sect.

It's really better to be in time than to be in time, and I don't know what reason to go to see this ancient sword sect master who has a strange whereabouts over the years, but I didn't expect to catch up with their sect meeting.

"Then dare to ask where the senior brother came from?" A young cultivator who looked to be sixteen or seventeen years old hesitated for a moment, then looked at Zhuo Zichen with a puzzled expression and asked.

Mu Feng and the three of them were silently following behind them silently, and now they didn't know what to say, so they could only let Zhuo Zichen deal with these things alone.

"The elders asked me to represent Qingxuanzong to participate in your sect's sect meeting, but I didn't expect to delay time for a while, it's really damned!" Zhuo Zichen pretended to blame himself, shook his head again and again, and sighed.

"So that's the case, but our sect in recent years has never sent invitations to other immortal sects!" A disciple of the Ancient Sword Sect was silent thoughtfully, paused for a moment, looked at Zhuo Zichen and said in confusion.

Just when Mu Feng felt that Zhuo Zichen's lies were perfectly woven, the sudden question made everyone's hearts sink and they all looked at Zhuo Zichen.

Zhuo Zichen smiled disapprovingly and shrugged his shoulders, "This time we came uninvited, your sect has rarely contacted us over the years, and the elders are worried about whether there is any misunderstanding between us, so we are specially sent on the occasion of your sect's meeting, if there is any misunderstanding, we can make amends in person, after all, everyone is a righteous person, and it is not good if there is an estrangement!" ”

As soon as Zhuo Zichen said this, even Mu Feng couldn't help but snicker, it was the first time he had seen this guy's ability to lie without blushing, and he actually said it so eloquently that it was speechless.

Several Ancient Sword Sect disciples standing in front of him obviously believed his explanation, and nodded their heads in serious agreement.

Looking at them like this, Mu Feng glanced at Xia Ruolan and Yin Feng, and found that the two of them were also frowning slightly, and their expressions became a little unnatural, these disciples of the Ancient Sword Sect in front of them did not look abnormal, and they were gentle and polite, and there was no difference between them and those immortal sects in the outside world.

If the Ancient Sword Sect really has any bad intentions, then these disciples in the sect should be more or less aware of it, right? But from their sincere and friendly words and eyes, there is nothing wrong with them, there are only two possibilities.

One is that they really don't know, the other is that they have a good psychological quality, or they don't know what Zhuo Zichen and the others are doing here, so they don't need to panic.

Under their leadership, the four of them walked out of the quagmire smoothly, and when they stepped on the solid stone road, Mu Feng breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, "It still feels good to be down-to-earth."

"Hehe, Senior Brother is right, we rarely go to the swamp on weekdays," one of the Ancient Sword Sect disciples smiled.

"This is where your sect is?" Under their leadership, they walked along the narrow and quiet stone road, and after a while, they came to a small hillside with green mountains and green forests.

At the bottom of the hill, a small stream with red lanterns is inserted along the way, several palaces of various sizes are located beside the stream, and in front of the larger palace is a high platform with a red carpet, on which scantily dressed young women are dancing, and the musicians are playing festive music, and hundreds of brightly dressed people are gathering on the banks of the stream to laugh and laugh.

Paper boats lit with candles in the stream flow down the river, and the scenery here is more beautiful than the dim miasma-filled swamp trees around it.

"Well, this is the location of our Ancient Sword Sect, I'm afraid that a few senior brothers have never been here, right?" The disciple of the Ancient Sword Sect who was standing beside Zhuo Zichen smiled proudly and replied.

"yes, I can't imagine that there is such a paradise in this swamp of death." Zhuo Zichen was also amazed, separated by a mountain, outside the mountain is the notorious and dangerous death swamp, and in the ravine between the two mountains, there is a cave in the singing and dancing, such a geographical environment really makes people have to admire sincerely.

"Everyone says that the Death Swamp is dangerous, and it is true, and the radius of this place is surrounded by mud and poisonous woods for dozens of miles, and it is easy for outsiders to get lost in it without a guide, and we are much quieter here."

The young disciple seemed to be very satisfied with the expressions of Zhuo Zichen and the others at this moment, and smiled.

"Well, we got lost in it just now and almost died." Zhuo Zichen chuckled and nodded, deliberately making a palpitating look and said.

"Now I'll take you to meet the sect master." The young disciple smiled and glanced at the brightly lit and lively stream at the bottom of the mountain, and stepped forward to lead the way without looking back.

"I'll be at my disposal later." Several disciples of the Ancient Sword Sect led the way, and Zhuo Zichen deliberately paused for a moment and whispered to Mu Feng and the others.

Mu Feng and the three of them nodded and didn't say much, Mu Feng, who was still on guard before, was now a lot more relieved because of his contact with these disciples of the Ancient Sword Sect, at least he felt that they didn't have any malice, and the hand that had been holding the hilt of the sword was also stretched out from his sleeve robe, looking at the cold sweat on his palm, Mu Feng shook his head with a wry smile.
