Chapter 39: The Calm Before the Storm
On both sides of the valley, the peaks and peaks are steep, steep and steep, looking up only to see a line of curved blue sky, occasionally a few mountain eagles passing by, also as small as dragonflies. Looking at it this way, the distant mountains are continuous, just like a long dragon flying to the sky, and looking at it from the other side, the mountains overlap and the peaks are accumulated, like the waves rushing and the waves emptying.
Here thousands of mountains stand, with different expressions.
In the early morning, under the slightly white sky, the mountains are as black as iron, solemn and solemn.
Immediately after that, the mist rises, and the milky white veil separates the heavy mountains, leaving only the cyan peaks, which is really like a landscape painting with light brush and ink, sparse and dense.
After a while, the fog cleared again, and the bare rock walls and rocks were dyed red by the sun.
The peaks and mountains are green on all sides, the hills on both sides are towering, and the mountains are full of green trees. The lush pines and cypresses on the mountain, the clear stream of water common in the thick shade, and the winding bridges of the secluded paths add a mysterious interest to the climbers.
The nearby mountains, covered with trees, appeared a thick green.
In the distance, the mountains were also covered with trees, and they appeared dark.
How could anyone who didn't know would have thought that this was actually one of the three holy places of the Demon Dao.
On the highest peak of the mountains, there is a huge palace that exudes an ancient atmosphere, on which the dragon and the phoenix dance are written with four big characters "Ruthless Heavenly Palace".
The three holy lands of the Demon Dao, the Heavenly Demon Holy Land, the Ruthless Heavenly Palace, and the Yin and Yang Blessed Land are all behemoths that have stood on the Demon Dao for millions of years, and for millions of years, the Demon Dao sects have been emerging, and those ancient demon sects have either disappeared in the years of history with the passage of time, or have fallen, and only the status of the three holy lands has not been shaken.
In the Ruthless Hall of the Ruthless Heavenly Palace, a handsome man in a black robe stood respectfully in front of a middle-aged man in white clothes.
"Not bad, not bad!" Looking at the black-robed man in front of him, a satisfied smile appeared on the corner of the white-clothed middle-aged man's mouth, he was very satisfied with this disciple of his.
The middle-aged man is very handsome, it can be guessed that many girls must have fallen in love with him when he was young, of course, his identity is not simple, he is the current palace master of the Ruthless Heavenly Palace, the three holy lands of the Demon Dao, and he is in charge of the Ruthless Heavenly Palace, and he is one of the three most powerful people in the Demon Dao.
The middle-aged man has only accepted three disciples in his life, and the three disciples are all extremely talented, and all of them are highly valued, but unfortunately the eldest disciple has fallen thousands of years ago for some reasons, and the qualifications of the second disciple are stronger than the eldest disciple, but it is a pity that after all, he can't break a love word, and he was expelled from the ruthless heavenly palace a hundred years ago. originally thought that he would not accept any more apprentices in this life, but he received another apprentice more than twenty years ago, that is, the man in black in front of him, and now he is only twenty-two, but he is already an immortal realm, even if he was not as good as himself.
"This is all taught by the master!"
"You don't have to be modest! As a teacher, you know how capable you are!" The middle-aged man did not deny it, nor did he agree.
"Master, I've brought back what you want!" After speaking, a box appeared in the hand of the man in black, and then handed it to the middle-aged man.
Taking the box handed over by the man in black, a trace of surprise flashed in the middle-aged man's eyes, he didn't expect his disciple to really bring this thing back, he just said it casually, he didn't expect-
Thinking of this, even a middle-aged man's state of mind could not calm down, he knew how difficult it was to get this thing, even he himself, he did not dare to say that he was 100% sure that he could get it.
When I opened the box, I saw that there was crystal clear grass lying inside, with nine leaves, like jade pieces, and even beautiful.
"It's indeed Jiuye Yuzhi!" the man in black sighed lightly, although he had read the description of Jiuye Yuzhi, he was not sure that what was in front of him must be Jiuye Yuzhi.
"But I don't need it anymore!" As soon as the words fell, a shocking momentum emanated from the middle-aged man's body, even if the man in black is now a strong man in the immortal realm, under the momentum of the middle-aged man, he is still like a lonely boat wandering in the sea, and there is a possibility that the ship will be destroyed at any time. Fortunately, this momentum was immediately withdrawn, even now, the powerhouses in the entire Ruthless Heavenly Palace were all pale under this momentum.
"It's the palace master!"
Immediately after that, many people looked towards the highest palace, not knowing what was happening.
Brush Brush -
The three figures appeared outside the Ruthless Heavenly Palace, exuding a shocking momentum, which was not much weaker than the middle-aged man.
"Evacuate!" At this moment, the middle-aged man's voice reached the ears of the three people, and then the figures of the three disappeared in place.
These three figures are the three major Dharma Protector Elders of the Ruthless Heavenly Palace, responsible for the security of the entire Ruthless Heavenly Palace.
The Ruthless Hall is the holy land of the Ruthless Heavenly Palace, without the order of the palace master, even the elders are not allowed to step into the Ruthless Hall for half a step, although the three Dharma Protector Elders are high and powerful, they still dare not exceed their powers, they just stay outside the Ruthless Palace.
"Master, your injuries are healed!" the man in black had a hint of excitement in his tone, the reason why he went to pick the Nine Leaf Yuzhi was entirely for his master.
Three years ago, a conflict broke out between the Heavenly Demon Holy Land and the Ruthless Heavenly Palace, and of course the root of all this was the battle between the two Holy Lands over who was the real First Holy Land of the Demon Gate. In the end, it intensified, and in the end, the Heavenly Demon Holy Lord and the Ruthless Palace Lord faced off, and neither of them reaped the benefits, but both of them were seriously injured.
The middle-aged man smiled, noncommittal, the reason why the injury was able to recover, it is inconvenient to disclose.
"You better put this Jiuye Yuzhi away by yourself!" The middle-aged man handed the box in his hand to the man in black.
The man in black hesitated, but still took it from the middle-aged man's hand.
"Ruthless!
That's right, this black-clothed man is ruthless, and his identity is actually the only disciple of the Ruthless Heavenly Palace Palace Master of the Three Holy Lands of the Demon Gate, and he is also the Holy Son of the Ruthless Heavenly Palace, and his status is not below the core elder at all, but he is the candidate for the future Ruthless Heavenly Palace Palace Master.
After Leng Ruthless withdrew from the Ruthless Palace, the entire Ruthless Hall was left with the Ruthless Palace Master sitting alone on the empty hall.
A dark shadow flashed, appearing next to the middle-aged man, revealing an old face.
"Palace Master-" The old man in black arched his hand towards the middle-aged man.
"Uncle Shi, you are-" The middle-aged man thought of the old man's temper and wanted to say something, but he still didn't say anything.
This black-clothed old man is the great elder of the Demon Palace today, and he is also the middle-aged man's uncle, except for those old monster-level existences in the entire Ruthless Heavenly Palace, only the Great Elder has the privilege of entering and exiting the Ruthless Palace at will.
"This kid—" The old man in black sighed as he watched the cold and ruthless figure disappear from view.
Leng Ruthless was something he grew up watching, he heard everything just now, and thought that for the sake of a nine-leaf Yuzhi, he dared to break into that place alone, even in his state of mind, he was deeply shocked.
"I hope not—" Before the middle-aged man finished speaking, the figure had already disappeared in place.
The old man in black naturally understood the meaning of the middle-aged man's words, sighed deeply, and then disappeared in place, leaving only the empty Ruthless Palace.
In the blink of an eye, it was already the third day that Bai Xuan returned home.
On the night of returning home, the family gathered together, and there were more than a dozen people at a large table. For Xiao Lin Yu, the Qin family also likes it very much, and Xiao Lin Yu's well-behaved and sensible makes Mrs. Qin very satisfied.
At the same time, I was also shocked by Xiao Lin Yu's cultivation talent, it has only been more than three months since I cultivated, and it is already the Triple Heaven of Qi Training, if this talent is passed on, I am afraid that those big forces will rush to accept disciples!
After that, he was naturally called by a group of people to tell about the experience of this time, and even a few aunts came to listen, although the two aunts are not from a famous family, but they can also be regarded as the daughters of rich families, how could they have such an experience when they were young, and now they have no such opportunity to marry into the Qin family, and they listen to it with relish.
Of course, those thrilling scenes are naturally avoided, and those things that hovering on the edge of life and death can only make the family worry about themselves.
"Brother Bai Xuan, your family is so big!"
"Brother Bai Xuan, your things are delicious!"
"Brother Bai Xuan"
In the past few days, Bai Xuan has really been a little afraid of Xiao Lin Yu, completely like a sparrow, chattering in his ears all the time.
"Brother Bai Xuan, shall we go out to play?"
As soon as Bai Xuan heard this, he knew that this guy must have been bewitched by his sister Qin Yuexin, how could he escape the clutches of Qin Yuexin, a demon, with Xiao Lin Yu's simple cuteness.
Before Bai Xuan could answer, he was directly pulled away by Xiao Lin Yu.
Seeing Qin Yuexin's successful conspiracy, Bai Xuan sighed in his heart, "That's really the case!" Qin Yuexin's side was still standing the second uncle's youngest daughter Qin Meng, the eldest uncle's second daughter Qin Yu'er, and the uncle's youngest daughter Qin Lan was in retreat at this time, preparing to break through the Xuanguang Realm in one fell swoop.
Qin Yuexin broke through to the Xuanguang Realm shortly after Bai Xuan left home, and Qin Lan was stimulated by this, he has been cultivating very hard in the past few months, and now it is time to break through, and now Qin Yuexin is already the peak of the Xuanguang Realm, compared to Qin Meng, it is not much more than Qin Meng, even Bai Xuan is also very talented for Qin Yuexin, if he doesn't have an adventure, I'm afraid he hasn't even reached the Xuanguang Realm!
However, Qin Yuexin knew that Bai Xuan's cultivation was very unconvinced, and being a sister was actually weaker than her younger brother, which made Qin Yuexin willing to give up, and finally gave her an ice lotus plant, otherwise she would have a headache.
The market is still so prosperous, Xiao Lin Yu has completely become a curious baby at this time, touch this, look at that, the girls also really regard Xiao Lin Yu as their own brother, and they have bought a lot of things along the way, even Qin Yuexin, a stingy ghost, has paid for Xiao Lin Yu.
It wasn't until dark that the group reluctantly returned to the Zhenguo Mansion, and saw Qin Yuexin's daughters looking unsatisfied, which made Bai Xuan sigh, "Women are terrible!" Of course, I didn't dare to let Qin Yuexin hear this, otherwise I would have to suffer!
