In the Kunlun Ruins, Gu Qingling's imperial sword flew at the forefront, and Chen Yifan and the rest of the disciples followed closely behind him. The group flew along the deep canyon without saying a word.

"How long has Senior Brother been practicing in the Tianshan Sect?" Suddenly, Chen Yifan, who had been silent, spoke, and his coldness surprised Gu Qingling's heart.

He seemed nonchalant, as if he just thought it was too boring along the way and wanted to find something to talk about.

"It's been almost twenty years!" Gu Qingling thought for a moment and responded to him in a low voice.

Eighteen years have passed since the Jiangjunmen incident, and he has been in the Tianshan faction for sixteen or seven years, but the past ten years have not been as comfortable as when he first joined the Tianshan faction.

"In this way, Senior Brother must have experienced the encirclement and suppression of Yu Ziqing's rebellion back then, is he really as powerful as the world says?" Chen Yifan knocked on the side.

"Yu Ziqing?" Speaking of Yu Ziqing, Gu Qingling's expression became grim. For some reason, the name has been coming to his ears more and more often lately.

"He was very strong, but I was weak at the time, so I didn't even have a chance to fight him. Gu Qingling lowered his head and pondered.

Seventeen-year-old Gu Qingling is still a little immortal, although he holds the imperial secret, he is willing to be a little buddy incognito in the dining room, and he does not want to be troubled by those disputes and sectarian trivialities.

So in the year when Yu Ziqing defected, he just followed behind the disciples from a distance, and was defeated by a sword without even having a chance to fight him head-on.

No, it's not for nothing, when the fat senior brother died, when his best friends died in front of him one by one, he wanted to use the Heaven Slashing Divine Technique, but no matter how many times he recited it, no matter how much True Qi was consumed, the Nine Dao Divine Sword still didn't cut down.

At that time, he was not worthy of the Heavenly Trick at all, this was the punishment given to him by the Immortal Law. Sometimes he wondered if he had lived up to the trick of slaying heaven at that time, on the day Yu Ziqing defected, he would have been able to stop him, at least he would be able to keep his fellow disciples.

Over the years, the reason why he has been cultivating so hard is that one day he will be able to protect his most important person from being harmed, and he doesn't want to regret it anymore.

Seventeen years ago, he failed to protect his family and sister, and a year later he failed to protect his brother because of his cowardice. But now he has the ability to protect the most important person in his heart!

"Senior Brother Gu was very weak at that time? Isn't the immortal method obtained in the Heavenly Machine Pavilion already able to show a person's talent? For those who have cultivated the Heavenly Technique, the touchstone test must at least be yellow, right?" Chen Yifan turned his head sideways and looked at Gu Qingling on the side as if he wanted to get to the bottom of it.

"Me. Gu Qingling opened his mouth and didn't make a sound, and he was speechless for a while.

"Or did you not want to reveal your talent and strength at that time?" You have been hiding all the time, even if your senior brothers die in front of you one by one, you are indifferent?" Chen Yifan tilted his head.

"No, no. Gu Qingling muttered to himself, and he turned his head sideways sharply.

I don't know when Chen Yifan has been on a par with him, and his dark black pupils can see Gu Qingling's heart tremble in panic. I don't know if it's an illusion, he suddenly felt that Chen Yifan's masked face was actually smiling weirdly at him!

He wanted to ask who you were, but there was already a loud noise behind him.

"Senior Brother Gu, look ahead, there are a bunch of monsters walking!" one of the accompanying disciples pointed to the path ahead and reminded the two who were talking.

"Go down and have a look. Gu Qingling retracted his mind, and the imperial sword flew towards the demon group below.

"It's a disciple of the Tianshan Sect, everyone run!" shouted a rabbit spirit, a pair of red eyes and snow-white long ears that had not yet fully transformed into a human form, still furry, and looked very cute.

Its eyesight was very good, and it saw the disciple of Edgeworth flying early, and hurriedly alerted the demons.

"Run, where are you going? Will they fly if you run on four legs?"

"yes, there's only one road here, where can we run!" said a bear spirit who looked like a baby mouse in his hand.

"No, don't run, can't run, anymore. An old man said leisurely, it was a turtle spirit, and it had almost completely transformed into a human form, but the back shell on its body had not completely faded, and it was stuck on his body like a pair of iron armor.

"Are we helpless? I still have children, and if they catch them, won't we definitely die?"

The baby pink bear in its arms seemed to sense the danger and screamed with its eyes closed.

"Big deal, we fought with them! My sister was killed by this group of immortal cultivators, and today we are going to have a fish with them to break the net, and let them pay for their blood debts!" It was the red pupil that had confronted Daochuan before, and the three foxes around him, who were stronger than wolves, were baring their teeth and roaring at the disciples in the air, as if they were facing a great enemy.

The red pupil looked at a demon pill hidden in the palm of his hand that shone with a bewitching light, and his eyes were full of mourning.

The demon pill was shining with colorful neon, and a little fox with closed eyes curled up in it, sleeping for a long time.

"Sister, don't worry, my brother will definitely avenge you, even if I find the ends of the earth, I will definitely find a way to resurrect you. He muttered to himself.

"Yes, it's really not good, we'll fight with them, and we'll die anyway. Several monsters were moved, and they raised their heads and glared angrily at the disciples of the Tianshan Sect, and the demonic aura on their bodies was raging.

"Fight, you, can you, them?" the old tortoise touched the shell of his chest with his old withered hand, as if wondering if his shell could hold the sword in their hand.

As soon as it said this, the demons who had originally had high morale lowered their heads

Come, look very depressed.

Yes, they are stragglers, not to mention, many of them are old, weak, sick and disabled, how can they beat these dozen inner disciples of the Tianshan Sect.

"You are the monsters of the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons, why did you leave the valley without permission? Do you know what the crime should be?" Before Gu Qingling could speak, a white-clothed disciple had already rushed straight out and pulled out the long sword in his hand.

The disciple was Gu Jiu's henchman Li Tianyi, and there were four disciples of the Gu Jiu Yi faction by his side, so he was naturally not bound by Gu Qingling.

"The Lion King gave an order before, telling us to leave on our own, and a large wave of demons has already been gone. We all dragged our families because of our inconvenient legs, so we didn't follow them. The rabbit spirit waited for a pair of round red eyes to innocently reply to Li Tianyi's question.

"I don't care what the lion king king's order, the master said, if any monster dares to leave the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons, they will be killed!" Li Tianyi pointed his sword at them viciously and shouted at the disciples behind him.

"Kill me, don't leave a single one!" The five of them didn't wait for Gu Qingling to speak, raised the dragon sword in their hands and slashed towards the demon group.

In his heart, no matter how old or weak, sick or disabled, as long as it is a monster, then it should be damned. The rest of the disciples knew that Li Tianyi was Gu Jiu's confidant, and his words here were equivalent to the words of the senior brother.

Gu Qingling had the same thoughts as Mu Yunqi a long time ago, but now he is no longer the same person he used to be. In the body of the Purple Winged Lion King, he saw responsibility and openness, which are good qualities that only humans have.

He suddenly felt that monsters were not all bad, and Xiaoyaozi and Mu Yunfei back then, they might be right.

"I said that it is useless to be soft, the people of the Tianshan Sect have always been like this, they only feel that they are right. Monsters like us are all cheap in their eyes, and it's not a pity to die!" Red Hitomi snorted coldly.

"The brothers have heard it, and they want to protect your family and get out of here alive. We can only survive if we raise our claws and show the sharp teeth in our mouths!" It shouted at the demons, trying to encourage them to fight it together.

But the red pupil's words didn't seem to work, except for the fox demon and a few young and vigorous monsters around it, the rest of the demons all raised their heads stupidly, and their eyes were full of pleading.

With a pop, the bear spirit holding the baby knelt down, and its heavy body slammed on the ground, making a loud noise that shook the ground, and even the gravel on the ground jumped twice.

"Please, it doesn't matter if I die, please send my child back to the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons, okay? It was brought out by me, and it didn't want to go against your will at all, it was innocent!"

It would rather let its child live in the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons for the rest of its life than die like this.

"Are you all fools? Do you think they're going to let you go? You're so strong, why not

Use this strength to protect your child yourself?" Red Hitomi stared at the bear spirit, full of hatred for iron and steel.

"And you, how many hundred years have you lived, the turtle shell has not been cultivated, no wonder it is such a waste!" Red Hitomi scolded, disgusted with these unenterprising monsters.

"Leave it alone, kill me!" But Xiong Jing's mournful prayer had no effect on Li Tianyi, and the coldness on his face made many monsters feel cold in their hearts.

Gu Qingling looked at the bear spirit that was kneeling on the ground, its face distorted, and slowly hugged the babbling child deep into its arms. It hugged the ground tightly, its muscular and stiff back curled up in an arch, and it used its body to wrap the mouse-like emaciated baby.

Gu Qingling could even see its eyes, it was obviously desperate. The Dragon's Sword was sharp enough to cut through its seemingly hard body effortlessly, and it couldn't do anything in that situation. It was useless to pray, it was useless to resist, so it did the most meaningless thing, and the only thing it could do. Wrap your child in your own torso as the only protection, although the Dragon Yin Sword can pierce them through them with a single sword!

He remembered that many years ago, he had also protected his sister to his chest.

"Stop me!" Gu Qingling couldn't hold back any longer, and the dragon sword in his hand was ejected from the ground.

The dragon sword roared forward, like a real swimming dragon, with an unconcealed killing intent all over its body, and stabbed fiercely on the stone ground in front of Li Tianyi.

At this moment, he actually killed his fellow disciples!

Li Tianyi and the five of them naturally felt the cold sword qi falling from the sky, this powerful sword qi made them dare not block hard, and the figure had to stop abruptly in the air, allowing the fairy sword to pierce a huge pit about several zhang deep in front of them.

It is conceivable that if this sword falls on them, Li Tianyi may not have the life to go back to see his senior brother alive.

Several disciples swallowed a mouthful of saliva and looked at each other. Li Tianyi looked back at Gu Qingling, he knew that this sword was shot by him, and among the people present, apart from Gu Qingling, only Chen Yifan had such terrifying strength.

"What are you doing! Have you forgotten your master's instructions? Who dares to leave the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons and kill without mercy, or do you want to disobey your orders and disrespect them?" Li Tianyi's expression was solemn.

"Let them go. Gu Qingling said coldly, his face gloomy as iron.

The bear spirit, which had been preparing to die, raised its head, and the light of hope rekindled in its gloomy eyes, and the baby in its arms seemed to grin and smile happily.

The red pupils had already revealed their claws, intending to fight to the death with Li Tianyi, but they didn't expect to be stopped by Gu Qingling. However, he still didn't have the slightest good impression of the disciples of the Tianshan Sect, and just looked at them coldly, wanting to see what tricks they wanted to play.

"Let them go, Senior Brother Gu, do you know how much of a crime it is to let go of these demons? They are all monsters, heinous monsters!" Li Tianyi's eyes widened, he didn't expect Gu Qingling to really dare

went against the master's will in full view of everyone, but he believed that only Gu Qingling could do it.

"Heinous. Where did you see that? I can only see that they are a group of homeless people, and I, Gu Qingling, will never kill innocent people, and the same is true for demons. His voice was exceptionally firm.

"Fourth Senior Brother, you have something to say!" Li Tianyi knew that Gu Qingling would not be able to listen to him, so he turned his gaze to Chen Yifan beside him.

Here, only Mu Yunqi was able to sit on an equal footing with Gu Qingling.

"Me?" Chen Yifan was happy, he turned his head sideways to look at Gu Qingling, who had a cold face, and then looked down at the group of monsters with their heads down.

"I just started and didn't know anything, so let's listen to Senior Brother Gu! In this way, it is tantamount to him acquiescing to Gu Qingling's approach, but he puts all the responsibility on him.

"This. Li Tianyi was also speechless, he never expected that Chen Yifan would agree with Gu Qingling. If he really stood on Gu Qingling's side, wouldn't Gu Jiu's position be in jeopardy?

No, when he goes back, he must remind the senior brother to beware of this new fourth senior brother.

"If something happens, I'll take all the blame. Gu Qingling was condescending, and his tone was unquestionable.

Li Tianyi and the others finally retreated, like wilting turnips, and returned to the team with their swords, but the expressions on their faces could be seen that they were not convinced.

"I'll let you go today, but if one day I know that you are doing evil in the world, even if I chase you to the ends of the earth, I will definitely kill you, do you understand!" Gu Qingling looked at the demon group, if he could let them go today, he would be able to take their lives one day.

As long as they disturb the order of the world, at that time, Gu Qingling will definitely not show mercy.

"Thank you, thank you. All the goblins bowed their heads and thanked him, only the red pupil was still standing in place, pouting his lips disdainfully, but he knew that he would never be able to take revenge at this moment, and everything needed to be considered in the long run.

Watching the demons leave, Gu Qingling took the disciples and continued to fly towards the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons.

"I will definitely tell the master the truth about today's incident, even if you are the master's most beloved disciple, he will never spare you so easily!"

Li Tianyi looked at Gu Qingling's upright back and smiled coldly, he had a vicious idea in his heart.

When Gu Qingling and his party arrived in the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons, the valley was already much empty, and even the demon power was much thinner than before.

In less than half a day, most of the demons in the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons have been lost.

Outside the cave where the Purple Winged Lion King lived, Gu Qingling slowly landed on the ground, looking at the purple gold light emerging at the entrance of the cave, which was the enchantment it had laid down.

Gu Qingling pointed at the enchantment, and the golden sword shot out, shattering the enchantment that made the demons helpless like glass.

He stood in the sunlight at the entrance of the cave and saw that the Purple Winged Lion King inside was still sitting cross-legged, his eyes closed, looking like he was waiting

Person.

"You're finally here. It naturally heard the sound of the barrier at the entrance of the cave shattering, and it had never thought of relying on this barrier to stop Gu Qingling's steps. Sitting here for a long time, the Purple Winged Lion King was just waiting for their arrival.

"I was ordered by the head of the Tianshan Sect to arrest you back. Gu Qingling said lightly at the Purple Winged Lion King.

The voice sounded like greeting an old friend he knew.

"I knew you were coming. The Purple Winged Lion King opened his eyes and smiled, he was already a sturdy man, and at this moment this smile seemed a little sincere and cute.

The Purple Winged Lion King stood up from the ground and walked towards the cave with vigorous steps, and with each step, one of the disciples pressed his right hand to the hilt of the sword at his waist, ready to attack.

They all knew that the Purple Winged Lion King was the strength of the peak of Xuan Xian, even though there were two senior brothers with Gu Qingling and Chen Yifan whose strength was comparable to that of Xuan Xian here, they didn't dare to take it lightly.

For a moment, there was tension, and the air was full of alertness.

"Do you want to resist? If you go back with us, you might die. After hesitating, Gu Qingling spoke.

He didn't know if he wanted the Purple Winged Lion King to rebel or if he wanted it to be caught.

"What if I really resist?" The Purple Winged Lion King grinned his shriveled lips, and the fluff on his chin exploded, really like a lion.

As it said this, with a swipe, more than a dozen disciples invariably pulled out the swords in their hands and pointed directly at the defenseless Purple Winged Lion King! Only Gu Qingling and Chen Yifan were still standing in place calmly.

"Then we will execute you on the spot, and we will die. Gu Qingling smiled and reciprocated, the two of them seemed to be chatting very happily, Chen Yifan did not interject, and looked at them with his hands as if they were taking a leisurely walk.

Gu Qingling waved his hand and motioned for them to put their swords back into their sheaths.

"I know, so I'm not going to fight. The Purple Winged Lion King said calmly, stepping from darkness to light.

His skin is purple-black, and he looks particularly bright and healthy in the sun.

"Then trouble the Lion King to come with us. Gu Qingling stretched out his hand, as if he was inviting the lion king to a feast.

A banquet that decided his life and death.

The Purple Winged Lion King and Gu Qingling looked at each other for a long time before slowly walking past him.

The disciples who came to him put heavy shackles on it with iron chains. The sword-wielding disciples finally breathed a sigh of relief, but they didn't realize that from beginning to end, the Purple Winged Lion King had not used more than half of his demonic power at all.
