The night was thick and covered the vast land.

In the dark mountains, long dragons of torches were lit, and the disciples of the Heavenly Dao Sect frantically searched the mountains overnight, looking for traces of the assassins everywhere. Unfortunately, after searching the peaks near the Heavenly Dao Gate, there was no trace of the assassin.

On a high mountain dozens of miles away from the Heavenly Dao Gate, Xia Qing stood on the top of the mountain, coldly looking at the long dragon of torches in the distance. Behind him, Great Elder Ouyang Zhi lay on the ground and did not move. After escaping from the Heavenly Dao Gate, Xia Qing quickly helped him stop the bleeding and healed his injuries, and fed him to swallow the Pei Yuan Dan that his aunt had personally refined, but Ouyang Zhi's injuries were too serious, and only half of his body was left, and Xia Qing was not sure if he could survive.

The night was thick and the wind was cold.

Xia Qing's heart was also cold, standing motionless in the cold wind. If one looks closer, one can see that blood is dripping from the tip of the middle finger of his right hand, but the blood is black.

In the secret room, Xia Qing touched the portrait of her mother and was accidentally poisoned.

It wasn't until now, after escaping from the Heavenly Dao Gate with the Great Elder Ouyang Zhi that he had time to use his skills to force the poison out.

"Top mandala poison, powerful!"

Xia Qing sniffed, quickly recognized what kind of poison it was, and secretly called it a fluke. During his years at the Wuzhou Inn, he often followed his aunt Yu Qiniang to practice and alchemy, and saw many highly poisonous poisons, and Mandala was one of them, and his aunt taught him how to poison and interpret them. This is a kind of poison produced in the extreme west of Zhongzhou, which can make people insane and even go crazy, and it is one of the most terrible poisons in the world.

The portrait of the mother is hidden in the secret room, deliberately making it difficult to find, but it will not be found. As long as it is a normal person, after finding it, you can't help but roll up the portrait and take it away, and then, as long as your fingertips touch a little bit, you will be hit. Then, if you don't know how to detoxify or don't have time to detoxify, you have to be caught, or you will die on the spot.

What a powerful serial killer move!

Xiahou Xuanfeng is not only terrifying cultivation, but also scheming to the extreme!

Xia Qing's heart palpitated, and now that he thinks about it, he is still terrified. It can be said that Xiahou Xuanfeng is definitely the most powerful opponent he has encountered since his debut, and the Qingmian Dazun of the Ghost Mansion and the King of the Middle Nether Realm are also very powerful, but they are not as terrifying as Xiahou Xuanfeng.

A muffled snort came from behind him, and Great Elder Ouyang Zhi slowly opened his eyes, subconsciously wanting to stand up, but he pulled the wound and snorted, and his face turned pale and pale. At this time, I remembered that a pair of legs were gone.

"Elder Ouyang, don't move, the wound hasn't healed yet. Xia Qing frowned and sprinkled another layer of medicinal powder on Ouyang Zhi's wound. This is the wound powder he personally refined, although it is not as good as the one refined by his aunt, but he can't find a better elixir at once, so he can only use it.

A trace of blood dripped to the ground, Ouyang Zhi's wound began to bleed again, Xia Qing had no choice but to add another layer of medicinal powder. For Ouyang Zhi, tonight is a critical moment, if he survives, there is still hope to live, and if he can't survive, he will be buried here. Xia Qing didn't dare to touch his body, and with a slight touch, the blood would drain faster.

"Young Master Xia, don't waste your efforts, the old man is hopeless. ”

Ouyang Zhi's face was bitter, perhaps knowing that the injury was too serious, and he had given up hope of healing, "Let's go, Master Xia, get out of here quickly, and never come back." Xiahou Xuanfeng has been refined into the body of a legendary immortal, which is not something we can kill at all, and this human realm and cultivation world will become his alone. This operation was prepared for so long, and in the end it failed, and it was a complete loss. It's not that we don't work hard, it's that the opponent is too strong, alas......"

Ouyang Zhiren is not dead, but his heart is dead. This defeat not only hit his body hard, but also dealt a fatal blow to his confidence and Dao heart, and the fierceness shown by Xiahou Xuanfeng made him, the head of the Seven Worship Elders, desperate.

"No, Elder Ouyang, we didn't lose. Xia Qing shook his head.

"Ah......" Ouyang Zhi was surprised, and looked up at Xia Qing, his eyes full of surprise and doubt.

"That's right, we did not kill Xiahou Xuanfeng as we wished, but we also tore open his body, severely damaged his muscles, bones, bloodlines, and internal organs, and even, severely damaged his treasure space. This battle cost Xiahou Xuanfeng at least half his life and abolished his decades of skill. Xia Qing paused, and then said in a deep voice: "The Emperor's decree has been issued, and it won't be long before it will be Chongyang Night." At that time, the masters of the world will gather together to besiege the Heavenly Dao Gate, and Xiahou Xuanfeng will be dead by then!"

Xia Qing was stunned, unlike Ouyang Zhi, whose Dao heart was hit hard, he still held on to hope. The sword that hit Xiahou Xuanfeng hard at the critical moment gave him strong confidence, even if he was an immortal, he also had flaws!

"Emperor's Decree?"

Ouyang Zhi suddenly came to his senses, and his eyes brightened, "Yes, there are also masters in the world, and you can wait for Chongyang Night next!"

Ouyang Zhi, who was originally depressed, suddenly remembered the identity of Xia Qing's new generation of human emperors and saw hope again. The assassination of Xiahou Xuanfeng failed, but there is still Xia Qing! Thinking about the scene when Xia Qing ordered the world's masters and led countless masters to fight to capture the Heavenly Dao Gate and kill Xiahou Xuanfeng, Ouyang Zhi couldn't help but get excited.

Like the rest of the worship elders, he and Xiahou Xuanfeng also have an irreconcilable blood feud, and it can be said that all relatives and friends died at the hands of Xiahou Xuanfeng. His only hope of living is to kill Xiahou Xuanfeng!

"Yes, wait for Chongyang Night!" Xia Qing nodded, after escaping from the Heavenly Dao Gate, the reason why he didn't stay away immediately was that Ouyang Zhi's injury was too serious and needed to be treated immediately, and on the other hand, he also had to wait here for Chongyang Night. It's just that the world's masters will definitely come?

Xia Qing was confident and calm on the surface, but he didn't have much confidence in his heart.

According to the ancient agreement of the Zhongzhou Continent, after receiving the order of the human emperor, the major sects in the world dare not disobey, even the worldly masters who have left the world and live in seclusion and the cultivators who are far away from the ends of the earth must rush to converge as quickly as possible, which is an agreement handed down from the ancient times of the human race. However, this agreement is too ancient, hundreds of years have passed since the death of the previous generation of human emperors, will anyone still abide by this agreement?

Xia Qing smiled bitterly in her heart, and suddenly hesitated and became apprehensive. If I fail, I am afraid that I will lose my mother's portrait forever, and I will never know what my mother looks like.

Over the years, I have cultivated frantically, been to the underground ghost mansion, forcibly entered the middle netherworld, and searched for the Great Happy Valley everywhere, for what?

I just want to find my mother and see my mother, is it really that difficult?

Xia Qing's heart was bitter, and he suddenly remembered Tang Banmu, who spent his days drinking all day, life was really too bitter and tired. It's very simple not to want to live, a sword can solve the problem, and it takes courage to live, and you have to face endless troubles and pains.

Xia Qing suddenly wanted to drink, and had a further understanding of Tang Ban's drunken dream death knife.

The Great Elder Ouyang Zhi, who was lying on the ground, was silent, and seemed to have noticed something, and pondered silently, not knowing what he was thinking.
