It has been more than ten days since the establishment of the Xiao League, and Yang Zixiao naturally became the first leader of the Xiao League, while Yang Ziling, Wang Dawei, and Mo Yanan were elected as the deputy leaders of the Xiao League to manage the daily affairs of the Xiao League. Because Mo Yanan's prestige in the Phoenix Academy in the past few years was quite high, and he had the supply of beast sources, more Phoenix Academy disciples joined the Xiao Alliance.

With the Beast Source, everyone's cultivation was several times faster than before, and some of everyone's martial arts had also greatly improved under the teaching of Yang Zixiao and the others! Some people who had been stuck at the peak of the second vein for several years also went to retreat with the help of Yang Zixiao, and when they came out, the Phoenix Academy would have a few more third veins! Although there was still a distance from the other academies, it was much stronger than before. The spirit of the entire Phoenix Courtyard slowly changed, and everyone was full of hope.

Yang Zixiao did not hide his personal selfishness, and shared his experience of cultivating martial arts with everyone. Especially Mo Yanan, he was originally very smart and basically self-taught. However, due to the lack of attention to some details, there are many flaws in the martial arts. Yang Zixiao pointed out to him one by one that his martial arts skills had improved by leaps and bounds.

"The five elements you said are mutually reinforcing and mutually restrictive. It turns out that there is such a big improvement in martial arts!"

"Yes, your original Vermilion Bird Strike did not use the blessing of the Vibration Vein Wood attribute aura, so its power is naturally not as good as mine!"

"Well, after I used the aura of the Vibration Vein Wood attribute, the Vermilion Bird condensed the perfect Red Flame Phoenix, and its power increased several times!"

Mo Yanan was silent for a moment, and then said, "Why do you teach me without reservation?"

Yang Zixiao said: "Since you are all from the Phoenix Academy, I will treat you as family." I don't want my family to be bullied by other people. As I once said, don't limit your vision to this small Phoenix Temple, Suzaku Temple is not the end, there are still many forces in this world that we don't know. I'm too weak on my own. I need your help and support!"

Mo Yanan nodded thoughtfully, his previous gaze was indeed too narrow, and he looked at the Vermilion Bird Courtyard tightly. Now that his strength is slowly improving, Suzaku Yuan is the only one who can beat him, and now he is confident that he will surpass them one day! There is a bigger world waiting for him to face!

"Okay, I'll also teach these things to those junior brothers, you're right, Vermilion Bird Courtyard is just a starting point!" Mo Yanan's heart suddenly became arrogant!

"Do you know how I won the duel with Wu Yunfei on the day I fought him?

Of course, Mo Yanan knew that Wu Yunfei was not weak! The perfect [Moonlight] was displayed, and he was basically undefeated! The only time he lost twice, once to the perverted elder brother Liu Chongzhi of Qingluan Academy, and once to Yang Zixiao. At that time, Yang Zixiao's Vermilion Bird Strike was obviously suppressed by [Moonlight]!, but suddenly a dazzling light erupted, and his eyes were stinging when he was far away, and he couldn't open his eyes. And Wu Yunfei, who is in the center, is estimated to be blind for a moment. And later rumors also confirmed this, it is said that Wu Yunfei was blind in an instant, and his eyes were bleeding, so he was reversed by Yang Zixiao!

"It's the blinding light!"

"Yes, do you want to learn?" Yang Zixiao looked at him with a smile.

"Will you teach me!?" Mo Yanan asked in a lost voice.

Yang Zixiao smiled and nodded.

Looking at Yang Zixiao's meaningful smile, Mo Yanan was extremely embarrassed, and secretly screamed ashamed in his heart, his pattern was still too small. Yang Zixiao's heart is in the world, and what can he hide from the martial arts of this Vermilion Bird Academy, so he stopped talking at the moment.

"This move is called [Burning Sun]!, it's a first-level auxiliary attack martial art!" Yang Zixiao said lightly, focusing on it, this is a first-level martial art!

"Human-level martial arts, human-level martial arts can be so powerful?" Mo Yanan couldn't believe his ears.

"Actually, I can't believe it, but [Burning Sun] is really a first-level martial art, and it is more complex than many ground-level martial arts, and it is difficult to master!"

Mo Yanan listened quietly, feeling incredible. Maybe I've seen the [Hot Sun] myself, but I've ignored it. If he hadn't seen the horror of [Scorching Sun] with his own eyes, he would have disdained this level martial art. Thinking about it, this may be where Yang Zixiao is stronger than himself, his understanding of martial arts is much more thorough than himself and most people, and he understands what he needs!

"This book is in the library, it's called [Burning Sun], you can go and practice it yourself, and if you don't understand it, feel free to ask me. ”

"Also, we are going to start preparing for the next batch of beast sources! You go and contact the disciples of the three veins in the courtyard, and we will set off for the Buried Bone Forest in five days! You have not experienced life and death, you don't know how to revere life, you don't know how to revere life, how can you be truly fearless? I want you to change fundamentally, be in awe of your heart, and be fearless in your actions. It's not just words!"

Mo Yanan's heart was like a bolt of lightning. Yes, if you don't know how to be fearful, how can you be fearless. Fearlessness was not a momentary boldness, and he took a deep breath as he thought back to the past. Bowing respectfully to Yang Zixiao, Mo Yanan at this moment really recognized Yang Zixiao from the bottom of his heart and was willing to drive for him!

"Okay, Alliance Leader!

"Poof!" Yang Zixiao laughed out loud, "You call me the leader of the alliance, why do I think it's so strange." ”

Mo Yanan couldn't help but look at Yang Zixiao, Yang Zixiao usually looked a little stupid, and when he was serious, he was completely two people. However, it is such a seemingly silly teenager, but he has a convincing charm.

"Alright! Yang Zixiao's expression changed, and he said in a deep voice: "I almost died in the Buried Bone Forest before, and this time it was not a cultivation trip organized by the academy. We're going to face smart, cunning, fierce spirit beasts! They won't show mercy! We may be seriously injured, we may die! I don't want to force it, you have to tell them the truth. ”

Mo Yanan was also extremely dignified, he naturally knew the danger of the Bone Forest. "I see! I'll be honest with them, I can't guarantee how many people will come, but I'll come!"

Yang Zixiao nodded, after all, it was a matter of life and death, no matter what decision he made, he understood.

Mo Yanan saw that Yang Zixiao didn't speak, so he left, his mood was a little heavy, because he didn't know how many people would come.

There are no mediocre people who can enter Suzaku Temple. Those former geniuses now have the second spring of their lives, and the atmosphere in the courtyard is also quite harmonious. Mo Yanan went to meet a few senior brothers, all of whom were disciples who had opened the three veins, but there were not many. After all, the conditions of the Phoenix Courtyard were too bad before, and because of that incident, there was still some distance compared to other courtyards.

There were only five people in the Phoenix Courtyard who had opened the three veins, and except for himself, Mo Yanan asked them one by one, but the results were not optimistic. There is one person who has been in retreat before, and he has just broken through the third vein in the past two days, and he doesn't know Yang Zixiao at all. Seeing that the senior brother came in person, he hesitated slightly, after all, the senior brother was still quite prestigious in the Phoenix Academy, but when he heard that he was going to the Bone Forest, he directly refused. The other four people also did not respond positively, Mo Yanan has been worried about this matter for the past two days, and he is not at ease.

Thinking about it, I actually understand, after all, the Buried Bone Forest is notorious. It's too dangerous inside, and if you're not careful, you'll die inside. Not to mention a group of people with three veins, even a group of masters with four veins may not be safe and sound. You must know that the lowest-level spirit beasts in it are all middle-level and low-level, which is equivalent to the masters of the three veins, and their physical bodies are much stronger than humans!

Today is the day to set off to the Bone Grove together, Mo Yanan packed up the items he needed to carry and got up and went to the door, where Yang Zixiao was waiting for him.

Mo Yanan stepped forward with a pair of dark circles under his eyes and said, "I did my best!" He did his best, he hadn't rested well for several days, and he didn't sleep all night yesterday.

Yang Zixiao patted Mo Yanan, "You did a good job." It's too dangerous after all!They need time, don't blame yourself!" He turned and walked out.

Mo Yanan glanced back, and there was an empty area behind him. "Perhaps, they still need time. ”

Yang Zixiao and Mo Yanan came to the north gate of Suzaku Courtyard, and not far from the north gate was a lush forest. Yang Zixiao asked, "Have you been here?"

Mo Yanan was silent for a long time before he nodded, took a deep breath, and said as if he had made an important decision: "Eight years ago, the academy organized a cultivation, and it was at the edge of this forest. It was led by the senior brothers of each academy, and Lin Xuandi, who was still a master at that time. ”

Yang Zixiao had heard a little, but the specifics were not clear. I only know that something happened, and people who have been admitted to the Phoenix Courtyard for a long time are secretive about it. And now that I can hear this story with my own ears, I listen intently.

Mo Yanan suddenly became a little crazy, and said excitedly: "Do you know why there are so few four veins in the Phoenix Academy, do you know why I can become a senior brother?"

Mo Yanan showed a smile, this smile was very strange, as if he was crying. "Sixteen dead! Sixteen living lives! Sixteen······ Just died," Mo Yanan seemed to recall, "There is a kind of mid-level and low-level wolf leopard in the forest, and they are very smart. ”

When Mo Yanan mentioned the wolf leopard, he still couldn't help but tighten his eyebrows. The wolf leopard seemed to have left an indelible impression on him. "They, constantly attacking, cut us and scatter us until it was dark, and the number of people was counted in the courtyard. I found out that a total of sixteen people were lost, including six in the Phoenix Courtyard! But the wolves and leopards did not kill them, they were······ Bait. ”

"Master Lin was going to save people, but he was warned by a howling sound in the forest! It was the voice of the senior brother, and we knew that it meant to retreat! But no one retreated! Because the senior brother was still inside!"

"However, Master Lin took us away forcibly, without looking for anyone or saving people, so he left. All of us vented our resentment on the Lin Master, but deep down we knew that the real reason was that we were afraid, and we were afraid of death. ”

After a long time, Mo Yanan had red eyes, grabbed Yang Zixiao and whispered: "Are we wrong? We are all wrong! Senior brother is gone, but he has taken away our beliefs and hopes. And then there is that group of people who are dead-hearted! I hate Lin Zashi, he covers up our timidity! But I hate myself even more, I hate my own weakness! And the most painful thing is Lin Zashi, because the senior brother is his own nephew!"

"My own nephew, I heard Lin Yuyu say that he once had an elder brother, but then he disappeared! Is it him?" Yang Zixiao remembered that conversation, the genius of Zhongzhou who Lin Xuandi wanted to talk about and stopped.

Mo Yanan nodded and said, "Yes, he is my senior brother!"

Only then did Yang Zixiao understand that it had been so many years. Lin Xuandi has always refused to return home and exiled himself. Yang Zixiao sighed: "No one is wrong in this matter! Whether I am in Dean Lin's position or my position in Lin Miao's position. I'm going to make the same decisions as they do!"

"So you're alike!"

Suddenly, a voice came from behind the tree next to him, and then several people came out, all of whom were from the Phoenix Courtyard!

Mo Yanan exclaimed: "You, why are you all here?" and turned to a person again: "And you, Liu Ding, didn't you refuse······?"

Liu Ding interrupted Mo Yanan and said, "I didn't know who Yang Zixiao was before, but several other senior brothers have told me a lot along the way, especially Dawei!" Then he looked at Yang Zixiao and paused: "It's a little stronger than the senior brother back then!" Senior brother was twenty years old at the time, and he is only sixteen years old now!"

"Phoenix Courtyard - Li Mu, Chen Xu, Liu Ding, Wang Dawei······ Mo Yanan!" The five of them arched their hands at Yang Zixiao in turn, their voices were sonorous and deafening!

Yang Zixiao bowed deeply to everyone and said, "Thank you senior brothers for coming to help me!"

Liu Ding said lightly: "Alliance leader, they persuaded me to come, saying that they saw the shadow of the senior brother in you, I hope you will not let me down, convince me and let me be willing to work for you!"

Yang Zixiao nodded and said, "Senior brothers, don't call me the leader of the alliance anymore, you are all older than me, call me junior brother." ”

"Lord Bingmeng, no. They have all joined the Xiao Alliance, so naturally they can't be called senior brothers. If you insist on doing so, you don't need to be called Senior Brother except for the five new people who have entered the hospital this year, everyone else must be called Senior Brother. Wang Dawei teased.

Everyone laughed, and Yang Zixiao was full of embarrassment.

"Alright, alright!" Yang Zixiao suddenly became serious, "This time when we enter the Buried Bone Forest, we mainly hunt those mid-level and low-level spirit beasts, don't separate." Those wolves and leopards are so cunning, I fell into their trap last time, and I almost died. ”

Li Mu's expression was solemn, and he was amazed when he heard that Yang Zixiao had survived after falling into the trap of the wolf and leopard.

Yang Zixiao didn't say much, told everyone to be careful, and then told everyone about the weaknesses and appearance of some spirit beasts. The group entered the Bone Forest, just like the last time in the Bone Forest, the sun was shining, everything was beautiful, and the spirit beast was also quite vicious.

After everyone hunted and killed a few spirit beasts, the tension gradually disappeared, and Yang Zixiao basically didn't make a move. He only made a move at a critical moment and saved Li Mu's life. Under Yang Zixiaodao's arrangement, everyone took turns to rest, so at the end of the day, everyone's physical strength was still very sufficient.

"The sun is about to go down, let's go back to the cave we just had. Yang Zixiao looked at the sky and said.

Everyone agreed, and the group walked to the cave, because of the lesson last time, Yang Zixiao and their marks this time used words and cloth strips, and it was difficult for wolves and leopards to imitate, so everything went smoothly to the cave. Everyone counted them and gained a lot.

Yang Zixiao said, everyone took turns to rest. Change the guard every other hour. "We're still on the edge of the Bone Forest, but we're already deep. There may be wolves and leopards, be vigilant and don't be fooled!

The first person to take turns to keep vigil was Yang Zixiao, looking at the people in the cave, Yang Zixiao's heart was warm. This group of people is already dead in their hearts, some have only met with themselves, and some have even only heard their own names. However, because he was like him, he stood by his side without hesitation. What kind of person is that Lin Miao? Is he still alive, or has he become a part of this forest of bones?

There was nothing to do all night, everyone changed their guards step by step, and the sky gradually brightened. The group packed up and prepared to start the next day's hunt.

"Who saw Chen Xu?" asked Yang Zixiao, and a group of people were about to set off, but Chen Xu was the only one missing.

"Just now he was in a hurry, and it was convenient to go to the side, so I went to call him. Liudin said as he yawned.

"I think something is wrong, you guys wait for me here, I'll look for it. Yang Zixiao said.

It was too quiet last night, how could it be that not even a spirit beast had come over in this buried bone forest? Yang Zixiao faintly felt that something was wrong, in the early morning, the sky was just bright, and the peace of the night led to a drop in vigilance. If it weren't for Yang Zixiao's question, everyone would not have remembered Chen Xu who had just left.

Yang Zixiao came to the grass that was convenient for Chen Xu and saw some filthy things, but he didn't see Chen Xu's shadow.

Everyone followed uneasily, and when they saw Yang Zixiao's gloomy face, they knew that something had happened.

"What about Chen Xu? It's just half a pillar of incense, where are people going, and I haven't heard any movement!" Mo Yanan was in a very bad mood, and his disappearance in the Bone Forest meant death.
