Chapter 36; Mount Qingcheng
The headquarters of the Xuanming Cult.
"Congratulations to the Emperor of the Underworld, long life without borders." Below, several people returned on one knee and said in unison.
Above, a hunchbacked old lady holding a cane slowly walked to the first place.
"The Emperor of the Underworld has been in retreat for many days, and everything in the sect is up to me, and there are those who disobey orders, and the canons are ruthless."
"Obey the will of Meng Po." Everyone said in unison.
"Black and white impermanence, a month ago, I ordered the two of you to go to Yuzhou to inquire about Li Xingyun and the Longquan Sword, I don't know if you two can get something." Looking at the black and white impermanence below, Meng Po said lightly.
The two of them were kneeling on one knee, bowing their heads, and suddenly heard Meng Po's words, the two looked at each other, and Hei Impermanence spoke; "Qi Qi Meng Po, although the two of us have carefully investigated at the boundary of Yuzhou, we have not found the whereabouts of Li Xingyun and the Longquan Sword, but."
"But what?."
"But the two of us found the traces of Uncle Yang. But when the two of us tried to follow him, they were found and escaped. Please atone for your sins. β
"It doesn't matter, since the whereabouts of Uncle Yang have been found in Yuzhou City, it means that Li Xingyun is also in Yuzhou. Recently, I got the news that there is a thousand-year-old fire Lingzhi in Qingcheng Mountain, Yuzhou, and the two of you can go to snatch the fire Lingzhi and bring it back. It's a good thing for my Xuanming Sect. β
"In addition, the two of you are secretly investigating to find out the whereabouts of Uncle Yang. The Five Great Yan Monarchs will also go to Yuzhou City, and the two of you will obey Jiang Renjie's orders at that time. Do you ever understand? β
"I understand, the two of us will fully cooperate with Yan Jun at that time to investigate the whereabouts of Uncle Yang, and the whereabouts of Li Xingyun and the Longquan Sword that we are looking for."
Lowering his head, Hei Wuchang said respectfully.
"Well, although there are five great Yan monarchs, but you must not be careless, I heard that the Tongwen Pavilion secretly sent the Eight Gate Masters of the Cross Gate, Benevolence, Righteousness, Etiquette, Wisdom, Faith, Benevolence, Courage, and Forbearance. Each led a group of people, and also secretly investigated the whereabouts of Longquan Sword. β
"For a long time, although the well water of the Xuanming Sect and the Tongwen Pavilion does not interfere with the river water, this time it is about the Longquan Sword, and they are all very capable. When you are out on business, remember to be cautious. β
"Thank you, Lord Meng, for reminding me."
"Well, go ahead."
At the same time, in the Phantom Sound Workshop, the empress also sent Ji Ruxue to Qingcheng Mountain to snatch the thousand-year-old fire Lingzhi.
She also knew about Longquan Sword and Li Xingyun's affairs in Yuzhou, but she was a woman, but she had no ambition to be the emperor, and she did not have the same desire for Longquan Sword as Xuanming Sect and Tongwenguan. She just wanted to snatch the thousand-year-old fire lingzhi so that her skills could be greatly enhanced.
......γ
Two days later, Li Xingyun and Lu Linxuan were walking on the forest path.
It's just that there seems to be a conflict between the two, Lu Linxuan walked in front alone, ignoring Li Xingyun behind him, which made Li Xingyun, who was idle without speaking, very uncomfortable.
Because the junior sister has ignored him for two days.
"Oh, oh, sister. What the hell are you going to do with my brother, you haven't spoken to me for two days, and I'm very uncomfortable. β
Li Xingyun held a sword in his hand, carried a burden on his back, and said helplessly.
Two days ago, they were driven out of the Jianlu by Uncle Yang, saying that they were asked to go to the rivers and lakes to experience experience.
However, in two days, he and Lu Linxuan did nothing but eat or sleep, and the senior sister ignored him, and no one talked to him, which made him extremely uncomfortable. At this moment, he really couldn't bear it anymore.
Hearing Li Xingyun's words, Lu Linxuan stopped.
turned around and looked at Li Xingyun's appearance, and suddenly became angry.
After snorting coldly, he directly grabbed Li Xingyun's ears as usual.
"Oh, sister, sister, it hurts. Let go, let go. β
"Hmph, you still have the face to say, you tell me honestly, two days ago, how did you fight with the master, and also, why did the master say that your martial arts are higher than mine, didn't the master teach you martial arts? . How can you be higher in martial arts than me, did the master secretly teach you.? β
After all, it's just a little girl in her teens, and there must be such a thing as jealousy.
As soon as Uncle Yang said that Li Xingyun's martial arts were higher than hers, she was uncomfortable, she used to have her own martial arts higher than him, but now suddenly, Master Yang Shuzi said that Senior Brother Li Xingyun's martial arts were higher than his, where could she stand it. So, he was angry and ignored Li Xingyun for two days.
Although Li Xingyun was pinched, he didn't resist, he also knew that his junior sister was in a bad mood now, and he didn't want to touch his brow.
As for his martial arts, he couldn't tell his junior sister.
When the masked monster taught him martial arts, he told himself that he should not show his martial arts in front of others, but now that he has been exposed in front of his master, he doesn't know how to explain to the masked man.
Fortunately, the master did not pursue the matter, you know. In ancient times, worshipping one person as a teacher and another person as a teacher was unfilial piety and a great sin. The master even had a reason to abolish his martial arts and expel him from the school.
It is not nonsense to be a teacher for one day and a father for life.
Of course, what he didn't know was that the reason why his master didn't pursue him was because he knew who taught him martial arts, and Uncle Yang had already seen from Li Xingyun's kung fu path that his martial arts were taught by the bad handsome Yuan Tiangang.
After all, no matter what he says, he is also a bad person, and he has been in the bad person for more than ten years. He has seen most of Yuan Tiangang's martial arts, and it is normal to recognize them. And he also saw the bad handsome in the back mountain, if he couldn't guess that Li Xingyun's martial arts were taught by the bad handsome, he wouldn't have to be a bad person.
Moreover, he really didn't dare to abolish Li Xingyun's martial arts, Li Xingyun was Li Tang's last bloodline, and the last person in the Li Tang royal family that bad people were loyal to.
He believed that as long as he dared to make a move on Li Xingyun, then the bad handsome would definitely make a move. Moreover, he guessed that the bad handsome had been secretly protecting Li Xingyun all along. If you want to be unfavorable to Li Xingyun, it is completely impossible.
Moreover, Li Xingyun is also his apprentice no matter how he says, and he has taken him for eight years, and everyone will have feelings. He is not a stone man, and he has no feelings. really let him do it to abolish Li Xingyun, he really can't do it.
"This,,Heheγγγ this."
"Hmph, if you don't want to say it, forget it." Seeing that Li Xingyun didn't say anything, Lu Linxuan snorted coldly and turned his head away from him.
"Oh, junior sister, you have to believe that senior brother and I have a hard time. Actually, it's your senior brother and I who are martial arts geniuses, and when the master taught you, I peeked in the dark, and then learned it, so my martial arts are higher than yours. Li Xingyun rolled his eyes and said bitterly.
"Hmph."
Hearing Li Xingyun's words, Lu Linxuan just snorted coldly, but he had already forgiven him.
She and Li Xingyun have been together for eight years, and their relationship is as deep as family. Since Li Xingyun didn't want to say it, she didn't want to force him.
"Well, I forgive you." Lu Linxuan's face raised and said arrogantly. Live like a little princess.
As soon as Li Xingyun heard this, he immediately turned a smiling face, walked to Lu Linxuan's side with a smile, and helped her pick up the salute and the sword in her hand.
Lu Linxuan was not polite to him, and directly gave her the things. The two slowly walked towards Qingshan Town at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain.
This trip they set off from Jianlu, and the destination is not to be determined. Seeing that the sky was about to darken, the two were ready to go to Qingshan Town at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain to find an inn for a night.
As they were walking down the mountain, the two suddenly heard the sound of someone fighting, Li Xingyun listened carefully and found that it was coming from not far away.
"Senior sister, there are people nearby who are fighting with others, let's go over and take a look."
"Hmm."
The two of them immediately changed their previous laughter, with a serious face, and gently touched the place where the voice came from.
This is the first time that the two have encountered disputes in the rivers and lakes, so they can't help but be careless. And Lu Linxuan is still a little nervous, she has been with Uncle Yang since she was a child, Li Xingyun and Uncle Yang are very caring for her, this is the first time she has walked the rivers and lakes, although she is accompanied by her senior brother Li Xingyun, but it is inevitable that she is still a little nervous.
The two lightly touched the vicinity, and Li Xingyun found a group of people wearing demon masks, shrouded in robes, and armed with scimitars, surrounding a woman in the middle, trying to use crowd tactics to capture her.
As for why he knew it was a woman, if he couldn't tell it was a woman from her coquettish hum and appearance, he wouldn't have to live.
Judging from her bewitching figure and those smart eyes, Li Xingyun bet that this is a beauty. If not, he wouldn't be called Li Xingyun.
"Senior brother, who are these people?"
"You ask me, I ask who is going. Your senior brother and I came here with you, you don't know, how do I know. Li Xingyun was not angry, and whispered to Lu Linxuan on the side, for fear that the voice would be loud to attract the attention of the group of people outside.
"Hand over the thousand-year-old fire reishi, fire reishi is not something you can have."
Ji Ruxue. "Hmph, it can't be."
"Then don't blame us for being ruthless. I've heard that the women in the Phantom Sound Workshop are surprisingly beautiful, I don't know what you look like, little lady. β
The Xuanming Sect disciple who took the lead, holding a scimitar in his hand, looked at Ji Ruxue, who was surrounded by himself and others, and laughed.
"Shameless."
"Brothers, go on, snatch the fire lingzhi, and give it to the black and white impermanence, we will do a great job." With a wave of the little leader's hand, the surrounding Xuanming Sect disciples outflanked Ji Ruxue and.
Ji Ruxue's martial arts skills are not high, at most they are only at the level of a small star. Where are these dozens of well-trained Xuanming Sect opponents, they can only support themselves. In addition, when she snatched the fire lingzhi yesterday, she was injured by black and white impermanence, and because she escaped overnight, she was already a crossbow with a strong bow at this moment.
After resisting a few more times, he was directly arrested, and the person himself passed out.
Seeing this, the disciples of the Middle Xuan Underworld Sect immediately burst out laughing, and one of them stepped forward and searched for the fire lingzhi on her, and casually ripped off the face towel from her face.
Her beautiful face was revealed. Snow-white and crystalline skin, with delicate facial features and a small face. If beauty is worth 100 points, she definitely has 90 points.
Li Xingyun, who was in secret, had never seen such a woman, and he was directly stunned. Lu Linxuan, who was on the side, was stunned when he saw Li Xingyun, and he was immediately jealous. Directly snorted coldly.
Li Xingyun on the side was woken up in embarrassment.
"Senior sister. Hehe, didn't the master teach us to be chivalrous and righteous, I think this girl must be a good person, and the people of the Xuanming Sect are not a good thing at first glance. You see....... β
As soon as he heard Li Xingyun talk about these people from the Xuanming Sect, Lu Linxuan suddenly recalled the incident eight years ago, when his father died in the hands of black and white impermanence, and these people from the Xuanming Sect were enemies.
Suddenly, her eyes were a little red.
Suddenly, without thinking about it, she impulsively stood up from the darkness.
"The thieves of the Xuanming Sect will be killed."
Lu Lin Xuanjiao shouted, directly pulled out the sword in his hand and rushed out towards the people of the Xuanming Sect.
Li Xingyun knew that Lu Linxuan was moving so fast, and he was taken aback by her, but he couldn't ignore it when he saw his junior sister rushing out, plus he originally planned to save Ji Ruxue, and they also had a grudge against the Xuanming Sect, how could they let them go.
also followed Lu Linxuan and rushed towards the Xuanming Sect.
"Who is it, the Xuanming Sect is doing things, and idle people are not allowed to interfere." The little leader who took the lead saw Li Xingyun and the two rushing towards him. shouted from his mouth.
I hope to rely on the name of the Xuanming Sect to deter them, after all, the Xuanming Sect has a great reputation in the rivers and lakes, and few people dare to provoke them. However, neither of Lu Linxuan nor Li Xingyun showed signs of stopping, but they were faster.
The distance between them is not far, they are already people from the rivers and lakes, and in a few seconds, Lu Linxuan rushed to the front of the Xuanming Sect, and so did Li Xingyun.
As soon as he rushed in front of everyone, Lu Linxuan drew his sword and slashed, not at all like a hairy girl who had just come out of the rivers and lakes.
