"Let go?"

An Muxi raised his eyelids slightly from Chu Ming's arms, blinked his beautiful eyes suspiciously, and then Yu Jing suddenly turned red, obviously remembering something bad, and slapped his chest a few times before sneering angrily.

"Chu Ming! You still have the face to say! ”

"It's just that you let me do that kind of thing for you in my socks, and make my socks so wrinkled!"

"This is not the most excessive, the most excessive thing is that you even ...... dirty socks"

Halfway through the words, the more An Muxi thought about it, the more angry he became, and the more he thought about it, the more embarrassed he became, and the roots of his ears, peach cheeks, and even the snow-white swan jade neck were all gradually dyed with a crimson sunset, and then he directly stretched out his white and tender little hand to pinch the soft flesh on Chu Ming's waist and turned it around a few times.

But even so, it is still difficult to understand the hatred in her heart!

Ahhh

Chu Ming, he's so annoying!

Why does it remind me of the shameful events of that night!

When the beautiful things that happened with Chu Ming in Yunhu Village that night frequently surfaced in his mind, An Muxi's face was red with shame, and he couldn't wait to find a hole in the ground and get into it directly.

At the time, it was too comfortable, so it might have been a little loud, but you can't use socks either!

Even if you use it, you can even take the old one!

"Ahhh

An Muxi twisted his delicate body and kept screaming in grief and shame, arching his head vigorously in Chu Ming's arms, eager to open his chest and see what he was thinking in his heart day by day!

"It's all your fault! It's all your fault! ”

"Okay, well, it's all my fault! …… Belch! ”

"Xi'er, don't arch, the bones are about to break, and there is no other way to do it."

After An Muxi gradually stopped being delicate and willful, Chu Ming gently stroked her slippery back and soft green silk, and couldn't help but chuckle and tease.

"Xi'er, there were people living around our courtyard that night, and I couldn't help but make this decision."

"Chu Ming!"

An Muxi was so angry that he hit Chu Ming's chest again with his head to interrupt what he was about to say, curled up in his arms and bit his red lips lightly, but no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't find a reason to refute it, so he could only hum softly, and his broken peach cheeks were full of shyness.

Because what Chu Ming said was all the truth, and she was desperately asking for it at that time!

After all, the heat was unbearable, so I inadvertently allowed to do so at his request.

"You...... You can't change your cultivation method. ”

After being silent for about a long time, An Muxi's dull and shy voice sounded in Chu Ming's arms.

"It's clear that you used to think that most of your voices kissed me directly."

"That's not because you almost bit off your tongue once!"

As soon as An Muxi mentioned this, Chu Ming suddenly felt resentful, and protested indignantly with a bitter smile on his face.

"I kindly reminded you at the time, but instead of relenting, you became more and more presumptuous, and I had no choice but to lean down and kiss you."

"As a result, in the next second, Xi'er, you will bite me with a mouth full of blood!"

"I ......"

As if recalling this incident, An Muxi's originally aggressive temperament instantly softened, hugging Chu Ming's waist tightly and muttering quietly.

"I'm sorry, who let you bully me every day...... Hum! Deserve! ”

"Why don't you practice a soundproofing spell?"

"Xi'er, you really reminded me, when I return to the sect, I will go to find such a spell to learn."

Chu Ming touched An Muxi's head dotingly, and then leaned over her ear with a wicked smile and said with a wicked smile.

"Na Xi'er, do you want to continue tonight?"

"I took a look, this is the outskirts of the village, there are no people around, you can rest assured and bold ......"

"Let's play!"

An Muxi angrily pushed Chu Ming out of the distance, glared at him in shame and said coquettishly.

"Have you finished refining the Qi Condensation Pill in the preliminary round of the Alchemy Competition tomorrow?"

"Even if you are a fifth-rank pill master, refining the fourth-grade pill may not be 100% successful, right? What's more, you're just a piece of material. ”

"That's right."

Chu Ming didn't seem to be in a hurry, he sat up slowly and threw the space bag in his hand, with a confident smile on his face.

"But that's for others, for me, the refining power of a Dan pattern of four pins of pills should be one hundred percent."

With that, he turned over and got out of bed and came to the courtyard, and after summoning the Qiankun Dan Furnace from the space bag, he opened the space bag given by the Hanhai Dan Sect.

However, after using his divine sense to sweep the Qi Condensing Pill materials inside, Chu Ming couldn't help but gasp, and his originally casual and lazy expression suddenly became much more solemn and gloomy.

There was indeed a furnace of material inside, and there was a slight but extremely condensed aura fluctuation, which was obviously marked.

But these are not the most troublesome, the most troublesome thing for Chu Ming is that the materials of this furnace of Qi Condensing Pill have not even reached the minimum five-year age limit for refining pills!

When I looked at it, it was full of wilted, almost rotten plants of about three or four years old.

Can this thing refine elixir?

You're kidding me!

As if sensing that Chu Ming's mood was wrong, An Muxi also hurriedly came to the side and looked at the space sheet in his hand, and his face was immediately full of consternation.

"These are the alchemy materials that the Hanhai Dan Sect gave you?"

Even as a layman who was not a Dan Master, she could see that it was extremely difficult to refine the Qi Condensing Pill with these "rotten leaves".

"Isn't that bullying!"

An Muxi clenched his fists in an angry manner, and then squinted his beautiful eyes slightly, and said coldly with a frosty face.

"I'll ask the bald butler tomorrow and see what the hell is going on!"

"No, he's just a worker, and he definitely doesn't know the inside story."

Chu Ming took out a yellowed spirit grass from the space bag, and a sense of arrogance and disdain sprouted inexplicably in his heart.

Good!

Didn't you stumble on me? Then I'm going to crush this stumbling block!

You don't really think I'm helpless in this situation, do you?

Chu Ming's expression became more firm than ever, and he immediately sat directly in front of the Qiankun Dan Furnace, and with a wave of his right hand, he placed all the Qi Condensing Pill materials in the space bag neatly beside his legs, and injected the wood attribute spiritual power into the Dan furnace to ignite the fire of spiritual power.

There are two keys to alchemy, the quality of the material and the control of the heat.

Even if the former has been cut off now, as long as there is the latter, there is still a possibility that the pill will be successfully refined.

Chu Ming stared at the emerald flame seedlings in the Qiankun Dan furnace, and when the time was almost up, he directly threw the materials of the Qi Condensing Pill into it one by one with a wave of his right hand, and immediately closed his eyes slightly and began to carefully manipulate the fire of spiritual power with his divine sense to refine and condense them into a pill.

Because the age of these materials is too low, Chu Ming must control the heat not to be too large, or it is not easy to burn them directly into slag; And it can't be too small, otherwise the Condensing Pill won't be able to form.

Therefore, the alchemy process, which was originally very easy for him, turned out to consume extra mental energy, his forehead was gradually covered with sweat stains, and his body sitting cross-legged also shook slightly, so that An Muxi, who was watching nervously on the side, could only be anxious.

"Bang!"

In the middle of the night, as a puff of black smoke erupted from the Qiankun Dan furnace, An Muxi's pupils shrank suddenly, and his hands were clenched tightly in front of his chest.

Failed?

However, to her surprise, Chu Ming suddenly opened his tired eyes, narrowed slightly, and directly reached forward with his right hand into the Dan furnace!

？

Do you still have to put your hand in alchemy?

An Muxi's expression was shocked, and he saw that Chu Ming seemed to be searching for something and rummaged in the Dan furnace for a while, and finally withdrew his right arm.

"Hoo ——!"

He took a long breath of relief and slowly spread out his right hand, and at this time, a pale yellow pill with a smooth body but a little black spots inside appeared in the palm of his hand, and two red yellow dan lines jumped on the surface.

"No way, I tried my best."

Chu Ming lay down on his back exhausted, and when An Muxi saw this, he didn't care about soiling his plain white dress, and directly knelt on the ground to give him a knee pillow.

"Because the material is too inferior, some of the impurities in it have not been completely burned out, but there are two Danwen that are not bad, at least they succeeded."

Chu Ming pinched the refined Qi Condensing Pill, looked at the full moon in the night for a while, and then put it in An Muxi's palm, and fell asleep after a while.

"This is too much mental power consumption."

An Muxi carefully put away the Qi Condensing Pill, lowered his head, and stroked away the sweat-stained bangs on Chu Ming's forehead with some distress, looking at his immature and delicate sleeping face, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but hook up a sweet smile.

"My husband is amazing."

With that, she leaned down and tapped Chu Ming's lips, and then picked him up in the posture of a princess, and put him on the couch after returning to the house.

Immediately afterwards, An Muxi used her spiritual power to clean up the gray stains on her dress, and then directly curled up in Chu Ming's arms and fell asleep together.

Nothing was said all night.

Early the next morning.

"Knock ——!"

"-Ding!"

Several deafening gongs and drums suddenly woke Chu Ming up from his sleep, and at the same time, An Muxi, who was rubbing his hazy sleepy eyes and frowning slightly.

"Who is making such a big fuss early in the morning......"

"I remember that there seems to be the opening ceremony of the Alchemy Dabi today?"

After recalling the things he had almost forgotten, Chu Ming suddenly fell asleep, and just wanted to sit up, but found that his right arm was blocked from blood by An Muxi's pillow, and he was directly unconscious.

"Xi'er, get up quickly, we're going to be late."

didn't give An Muxi much time to react, Chu Ming turned over and got out of bed and washed her face casually, and then pulled her out in a hurry, and at the same time, she also got a few coquettish complaints.

"Chu Ming! I haven't washed yet! ”

"Don't wash it, Xi'er, you're the best-looking, it's a big deal to cover it with a veil."

……

The opening ceremony of the Alchemy Dabi was located in the Danshi Dojo in the center of Hanhai City, and even if it was just dawn in the early morning, the huge square of tens of thousands of square meters had already been crowded with people.

In the center, a huge and magnificent gray-black stone platform is located in it, and more than 100 stone steps stretch upward, and four stone chairs are faintly placed on the top.

A lustrous white light shot upwards from the center of the stone platform, reaching a certain distance in the air and spreading outward, encompassing Hanhai City in the form of a buckle bowl, forming a translucent defensive spirit cover.

"It's a big deal!"

Chu Ming, who was standing on the periphery of the crowd in the square, couldn't help but marvel at this scene, and his face was full of excitement.

And An Muxi, who was holding his hand, seemed to have little interest in the opening ceremony of the alchemy competition, and looked around as if looking for something.

"You're looking for your sister?"

Chu Ming leaned down intimately, leaned on An Muxi's ear and chuckled and comforted.

"Don't worry, Xi'er, you'll meet sooner or later."

"She is now the Holy Maiden of the Blazing Flame Immortal Sect, so you don't have to worry about her safety."

"But I want to find her as soon as possible......"

An Muxi lowered her head in disappointment, her eyes revealing a firmness that she had never seen before.

As long as An Muqing is found, using her identity as the holy daughter of the Blazing Immortal Sect, maybe you can find the place where the Hanhai Dan Sect is holding the queen mother!

But where can she be now?

Chu Ming clearly saw her yesterday!

After frowning and thinking about it for a while, as if she had thought of something, An Muxi's pupils suddenly shrank.

Could it be that Mu Qing has returned to China?

Quite possibly!

"Chu Ming! You come with me! ”

While Chu Ming was still happily enjoying the lively atmosphere around him, An Muxi suddenly pulled him to the corner of an uninhabited alley, and stared at him behind the wall, staring at his eyes full of doubts, biting his soft lips and seemed to be entangled for a long time, and finally said word by word.

"Chu Ming, I'm going back to Anguo's capital, maybe we'll be separated for a while."

"Huh?"

For An Muxi's sudden farewell, Chu Ming couldn't help but be confused, and when he was anxious to say something, he was suddenly blocked by her open lips with her index finger, and her deep eyes revealed a sense of firmness that she had never felt before.

"I'm your senior sister, you have to listen to me this time."

"First of all, you must participate in the Alchemy Competition, after all, this is related to the face of Tianyan Sect."

"Even if this task was forcibly given to you by that white-bearded old man, we have to complete it well, after all, we are all disciples of the Tianyan Sect."

"So Chu Ming, you stay in Hanhai City to participate in the alchemy competition, and I plan to go back to the capital of Anguo, because An Muqing is very likely to be there!"

"As the Holy Maiden of the Blazing Flame Immortal Sect, she can definitely use her identity to obtain some information about the Queen Mother, so I have to find her!"

"Of course I know you're going to worry about me and want to come with me."

As soon as he said this, An Muxi's serious expression suddenly became much gentler, holding Chu Ming's cheek with both hands and whispering, revealing a strong pride and confidence in his apologetic tone.

"But husband, I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can't let you go with me, because you still have important business to do."

"What's more, don't forget that I am the first person in the outer sect of the Tianyan Sect, the most talented sword cultivator recruited in the past hundred years, and I am also your senior sister."

"If I fight you seriously, maybe you won't be able to beat me."

"So, you don't have to worry about me at all, because I'll put my own safety first, and then go and seek the opportunity to meet the Queen Mother and the Emperor on this basis, because I've waited too long for this day......"

Looking at An Muxi's expression of extreme hope and pleading, Chu Ming opened his mouth slightly and stopped talking several times, and finally sighed.

In fact, from the time An Muxi proposed to come to Hanhai City to participate in the alchemy competition, he expected that this kind of thing would happen.

Originally, Chu Ming had simulated how to deal with this situation countless times in his heart, and the best solution was to give up the alchemy competition and follow An Muxi back to the capital of Anguo to protect her safety.

However, when it came time to really make a decision, his firm heart was suddenly shaken by An Muxi's words.

Oh, yes!

Xi'er is not a fledgling who needs to be protected by herself, this time she went out for experience, and she has always wanted to tie her to her side, and it is really inappropriate to restrict her freedom.

“……”

Chu Ming stroked his left chest, feeling the deep worry in his heart, and finally stared at An Muxi's determined eyes for a long time, and with a wave of his right hand, he summoned the Dio Spirit Sword in the space bag.

"Edgeworth may be flying faster."

"Thank you, husband, for understanding me."

Seeing that Chu Ming was not stubborn, An Muxi couldn't help but be overjoyed, and after smiling, he directly hooked his neck with both arms and kissed him deeply.

Of course, Chu Ming didn't waste this opportunity, he frantically asked for the sweetness in Na Tan's mouth, and it took a long time to be separated.

"I'm leaving, let's meet in the small courtyard of the rented village after the alchemy competition."

An Muxi wiped her moist cherry lips, her bright eyes were filled with a strong sense of reluctance and attachment, she bit her red lips lightly and struggled for a while, and finally picked up the Dio Ling sword and left the alley without looking back, leaving Chu Ming looking at the shadow with a lost expression, and the irritability and sorrow in his heart became more and more condensed.

In the past few months that the two have been together, they have been inseparable and never separated.

Now that they are so separated, I don't know when we will be able to meet, which is really a bit of a boiling mentality.

"Forget it, Xiao Bisheng is newly married, wait for Xi'er to come back and let her compensate me well."

Chu Ming comforted himself in his heart, a bitter smile appeared on his face, but his empty heart couldn't calm down.

"Hoo ——!"

After taking a few deep breaths, he slowly left the alley, and at this moment, an old and deep male voice suddenly fell from the sky, ringing in the ears of everyone in Hanhai City.

"Please be quiet for a moment."

The gentle words revealed the inviolable holy might, with the rolling sound waves spreading in all directions with the center of the Danshi Dojo as the center, attracting everyone to look at the high platform.

There, the originally silent spiritual mist suddenly turned into a colorful vortex and instantly condensed, and after slowly dissipating, a middle-aged man wearing a sky-blue luxurious brocade robe and a high hat stood with his hands in his hands, looking down at the surroundings with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

His face is like a crown of jade, his posture is erect, and in his deep blue eyes, which are as eternal as an ancient well, there are countless plants in full bloom, and just by looking at it, there is a sense of epiphany that peeks into the mystery of life, which makes people feel intimate with him from the bottom of their hearts.

It's scary!

Chu Ming was stunned from staring at the middle-aged man for about a dozen breaths before he suddenly came back to his senses, his eyes revealing shock and disbelief that he had never seen before.

I am so vigilant, but now I have a good impression of a stranger from the bottom of my heart?

This man is the most terrifying person I've ever seen!

The unfathomable depth of her cultivation is comparable to that of her master, and even a higher level!

"This is definitely not the Transformation God Realm, and if you don't say anything, you have to return to the void......"

Chu Ming couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, and immediately found that everyone around him was doing the same action as himself, and his wide eyes showed a thick look of horror.

Even if the other party just stood there and didn't speak, everyone was 100% sure of his identity.

"Hello Dan Masters, first of all, please allow me to introduce myself."

The middle-aged man bowed slightly very politely, and then his proud words with a hint of laughter spread throughout the streets and alleys of Hanhai City.

"I can't remember the name myself, but you can call me Hanhai Danxian. Old man Shengling. ”

"Of course, it's okay to call me the Hanhai Sect Master."

Sure enough, this person is the sect master of the Hanhai Dan Sect!

After learning this expected answer, Chu Ming couldn't help but complain in his heart.

Why do these people with profound cultivation like to call themselves old men!

I wonder if you look like you're thirty or forty years old, right?

Could it be that because of Dan Xiu, his appearance is old and young?

Also, judging from the previous alchemy competitions, wasn't it always presided over by the deputy sect master in the past?

Why did the sect master come forward directly this time?

Is it because of the 3,000-year-old sect?

Chu Ming couldn't help but feel a little confused, and at this moment, the extremely low hearty laughter of the old man Sheng Ling sounded in his ears again.

"First of all, on behalf of the Hanhai Dan Sect, I welcome genius Dan masters from all walks of life in the Northern Regions to come and participate in the alchemy competition we held, and I also welcome monks from all walks of life to come to Hanhai City as guests."

"This year, it is the three thousand years since the founding of the Hanhai Dan Sect, and I am glad that you can take time out of your busy schedules to come to Hanhai City to congratulate our Hanhai Dan Sect."

After saying that, the old man Sheng Ling bowed again, causing a round of applause and cheers in the entire square.

It's just these few polite gestures, and his status in everyone's hearts has gradually evolved from being high at the beginning, to a kind old man next door.

"This sect master of the Hanhai Dan Sect doesn't even have the shelf of the sect master?"

"I've heard of him so kindly and kind in the past, but now that I see him, it's really approachable!"

“……”

Listening to the praise of many people around him, Chu Ming pursed his lips with disdain, and muttered secretly in his heart.

This kind of person with a kind face is most likely to be black after putting aside the heart!

Do you really think that just by being kind to others, you can secure the position of the head of a sect?

Staring at the old man Shengling who was smiling and looking around on the high platform, Chu Ming couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly, revealing a strong sense of vigilance.

At this time, his pupils shrank suddenly, and suddenly the hairs on his body stood on end, and a cold chill rushed from the tail vertebrae to the Tianling Gai, and goosebumps erupted all over his body.

Because Chu Ming noticed that the old man Sheng Ling actually looked at him with a hint of playfulness in his eyes just now!
