In fact, to put it bluntly, all the female disciples in the Taiqing Sect who have a slightly higher vision, almost everyone looks at Yan Luoting very unpleasantly. Twenty-six years of cultivating immortals is only in the late infancy, and he always pretends to be a handsome boy to please beautiful female disciples on weekdays, but it is really useless. What about being handsome? If you don't seek progress, you're not much different from a worldly gentleman.

Yan Luoting didn't think so, he was originally cautious, but now he was even more angry, and attributed the reasons to Tianxiao and Tianyao. "It's enough to make me angry to occupy Zhu Xiaomin, now even Xiao Liying has been taken away by you, Tang Junhe is your second senior sister at all, the three beauties of Taiqing Sect, you still want to occupy them all, it's not that easy!" Yan Luoting thought hatefully in his heart.

How can other people know Yan Luoting's thoughts? For Xiao Liying's enthusiasm, Tianyao can still handle it calmly, but Tianxiao can't, always looking shy and shy.

"It seems that Brother Tianxiao is really a bit like that to Senior Sister Xiao...... Haha!"

"Senior Brother Tianyao, what are you thinking, so happy? Lu Mingyao smiled. She didn't pay much attention to Yan Luoting, but she was very interested in He Tianyao, and she was also in a hurry to fly with Tianyao's sword.

"Heh, nothing. We have to get down to business tomorrow, so let's all rest early tonight. Tianyao got up with a smile and went back to the room on the second floor.

As soon as Tianyao left, Tianxiao hurriedly followed. Xiao Liying took Lu Mingyao out for a stroll. Tian Jingkang was sleepy when he was full, said that he wanted to take a nap, and went back to the room, leaving Yan Luoting alone. Yan Luoting just proposed to accompany Xiao Liying and Lu Mingyao to go out together, but the two refused. He asked for a pot of wine alone, and drank it cup by cup, sulking. After drinking a pot, I felt bored and went back to my room.

Early the next morning, everyone left Yanzhou City together and marched towards the Green Cloud Swamp to the west.

At first, the surrounding area was still a wilderness, and there were no people, but as they got closer and closer to the Green Cloud Swamp, there were more and more people. There are all kinds of people, from immortal cultivators to village beggars, men, women, and children. Some are in pairs, some are alone.

"Heaven and Earth Spirit Treasure was born, why did so many people who were not immortal cultivators come to join in the fun? Delusional desire to snatch the spirit treasure from us immortal cultivators? I probably don't want to live!" Yan Luoting has always had a sense of superiority as an immortal cultivator, and he is very contemptuous of people who are not immortal cultivators.

Lu Mingyao answered: "Senior Brother Yan, what you said is wrong. Treasure is originally obtained by those who are destined. Why don't we try our luck?"

Yan Luoting snorted disdainfully: "As the saying goes: 'The husband is not guilty, but he is guilty.'" 'Even if you get the spiritual treasure, you have to take it away.' ”

Lu Mingyao continued to refute: "If there is really a spiritual treasure born, it will not be of much use to ordinary people. I think most of these people are employed by certain sects, after all, if there are many people, it is relatively easy to find spiritual treasures. If you are lucky enough to bring the spiritual treasure back, you can exchange it with the sect for some elixirs to prolong life. Besides, the major sects have jointly stated that immortal cultivators are not allowed to slaughter mortals at will, and if they kill people and seize treasures in front of so many people, I am afraid that they will not end well. ”

Yan Luoting stretched the corners of his mouth and stopped talking. When the group reached the edge of the Green Cloud Swamp, they found that there were more people here. The green cloud swamp is surrounded by mountains on both sides in the west and north, and there is no road to go. To the south is a large depression with dense trees and vines entwined between trees, making it impossible to be in the middle of the forest. In addition, duckweed and aquatic plants grow densely in the water, and it is very inconvenient to take a boat. Therefore, those who want to enter the swamp treasure hunt plan to enter the swamp area from the shallow water level on the east side of the swamp. There is a relatively wide area at the entrance, where people gather.

"Why do all these people linger here and don't go into the swamp?" wondered.

"Yo, I said who is the disciple sent by the Taiqing Sect this time, it turns out to be Senior Brother Yan!" A yin and yang voice came from behind.

The Taiqing Sect and his party all turned around, only to see several people in apricot yellow robes walking over together.

The man at the head was a man with shoulder-length hair draped over one of his eyes. A strand of hair on his forehead turned out to be white. This person's eyes are not large, but his eyes are very sharp, and his face is very pale, as if he has a serious illness. The faces of the people in the back were a little immature, and the group was obviously led by this man.

When Yan Luoting saw this person, he also looked like he was not smiling: "Isn't this Senior Brother Li, I didn't expect that the person sent by the Yeli Sect this time was you." ”

Tianxiao and Tianyao suddenly remembered that when they were about to leave the sect, Li Yuanxiao had instructed that the Taiqing Sect and the largest immortal cultivation sect in Qianlong County, the Yeli Sect, had always been friendly. This time to explore the treasure, Li Yuanxiao has sent a message to make an appointment with the sect master of Yeli, and sent his disciples to the swamp. Therefore, Li Yuanxiao told everyone that after coming to the Green Cloud Swamp, they would first find the disciples who left the sect at night, and then enter the swamp together, and if they encountered sudden changes, they could also take care of each other.

If the sect is good, it is not necessarily that the disciples in the sect are also good. It seems that Yan Luoting and this man know each other, but it is obvious that they are not quite right with each other.

Some of the people next to him began to look here, and when they heard the words "Taiqing Sect" and "Night Departure Sect" coming out of the mouths of the two people, they turned their heads in amusement. The well-known names of these two sects represent strength. This kind of great sect that dominates a county is not something that ordinary people can afford to provoke.

The man suddenly changed his humble expression and said to Lu Mingyao, "Senior Sister Lu, these are your junior brothers and sisters. Fortunately, I am Li Qingyang, a disciple of the Yeli Sect, in the late Yuan Infant realm. As he spoke, he turned sideways, pointed to the disciples who left the sect at night, and said, "This time, I am on the order of the sect master, and I will take a few junior brothers and sisters down the mountain to explore the treasure. The Sect Master has commanded us to be with you. If you encounter danger after entering the swamp, we hope that everyone will work together. ”

Li Qingyang said, and the disciples who left the sect at night also bowed politely to the few people of the Taiqing Sect. Li Qingyang was weird to Yan Luoting, but he was quite easy-going to others, and he listened very sincerely. Seeing that he was so polite, Tianxiao, Tianyao and the others were relieved, listening to the tone of his speech to Yan Luoting just now, they thought that he was not used to the disciples of the Taiqing Sect, but now it seems that he is only targeting Yan Luoting alone.

After saluting each other, Lu Mingyao opened his mouth and asked, "Senior Brother Li, I don't know why these people don't go into the swamp, but stay here?"

Li Qingyang explained: "You don't know, we arrived a day earlier than you, and I heard from the people here that since the strange movement of Lingbao's birth was discovered, people from the state cities around this area have gathered here one after another, and entered the swamp together, but none of the people who went in came out. After the news spread, many immortal cultivators also rushed to the depths of the swamp to search for treasures relying on their cultivation, but even after they entered the swamp, they also disappeared. This thing is really strange, so we don't dare to enter it rashly, so we have to wait here for the disciples of your sect. Those people were also waiting for their companions to come and form a team to enter the swamp together. ”

Hearing this, several people were a little curious.

"Could it be that there are powerful demon beasts in the swamp protecting the spirit treasure? Those who entered the swamp to hunt for treasure were all injured by the demon beasts?" Xiao Liying guessed.

"Possibly. It's just that I've never heard of demon beasts in the depths of the Green Cloud Swamp before. What the specific situation is, we will not know until we go in and investigate. Li Qingyang replied.

"Then what are you waiting for? there are so many of us, and we are all immortal cultivators, no matter how powerful the demon beast is, there will definitely be no problem with self-preservation. You can't be too greedy, and if those ordinary people lose their lives because of greed, they are also to blame. Yan Luoting's tone has always been so arrogant. Hearing his words, several disciples of the Yeli Sect frowned slightly.

"Since Senior Brother Yan is so confident, then there is Lao to lead the way in front and lead us. Li Qingyang deliberately provoked again.

"Hmph, coward. Senior brothers, junior sisters, let's go!" Yan Luoting raised his arms and strode towards the dense forest. Tianxiao, Tianyao and others followed. Li Qingyang let the disciples of the same sect go ahead, and he walked at the back of the line. A group of twelve people entered the Green Cloud Swamp in a mighty manner.

Seeing another group of immortal cultivators entering the swamp, the crowd in the clearing was slightly commotion and discussed. However, they were not immortal cultivators, so they didn't dare to enter with the immortal cultivators, let alone go in to explore the treasure by themselves, so they had to continue to wait for their companions who had not yet arrived.

As he was walking, Tianyao asked Lu Mingyao in a low voice: "Senior Sister Lu, it turns out that you and Senior Brother Yan both know that Li Qingyang." ”

Seeing that Tianyao took the initiative to talk to her, Lu Mingyao replied with a smile: "Yes." Senior Brother Yan and I used to go down the mountain together to run errands, and at that time, we also acted together with the disciples of the Yeli Sect, and it was at that time that I met Li Qingyang. ”

Tianxiao next to him asked in a low voice: "Senior Sister Lu, Li Qingyang and Senior Brother Yan seem to be at odds with each other. Why is that?"

Xiao Liying, who was behind, also came forward with great interest to listen.

Lu Mingyao said: "This is really to blame on Senior Brother Yan. When the disciples of our two sects were traveling together, there was a beautiful woman among the disciples of the Yeli Sect. That female disciple was Li Qingyang's junior sister. At that time, the two of them were very close, and I heard from other disciples that they would become Taoist couples in the future. Speaking of this, Lu Mingyao paused.

Xiao Liying smiled: "I probably guessed, it must be Senior Brother Yan who is messing up the relationship between others again, isn't it?"

Lu Mingyao nodded: "That's true." At that time, Senior Brother Yan fell in love with that junior sister, and he tried his best to be courteous to the girl during his companionship, and tried his best to please the other party. It can be seen that that senior sister has not been deeply involved in the world, and when she saw such a suave character as Senior Brother Yan, she was subjected to such a fierce love offensive, and it didn't take long for her to fall into it. So, that junior sister ruthlessly left Senior Brother Li Qingyang and was with Senior Brother Yan. ”

"I can't imagine that there is such a story. And what about later?" asked Tianyao.

Lu Mingyao smiled: "Senior Brother Yan's personality must be clear to you. He is a man who likes the new and hates the old. That girl was too simple, and Senior Brother Yan quickly lost interest in her after pursuing her. Next, Senior Brother Yan began to pursue your Senior Sister Liying, but he didn't catch up. After all, Senior Sister Xiao is not as stupid as that girl. ”

Xiao Liying pursed her lips dissatisfiedly: "Senior Sister Lu, why did you mention me about Senior Brother Yan, what happened to that girl?"

Lu Mingyao sighed: "What else can I do? That girl was emotionally frustrated, disheartened, and had no face to return to Senior Brother Li Qingyang. I heard that she later closed her heart, blindly cultivated penance, never came down the mountain again, and never talked about emotional matters again. ”

Tianxiao shook his head and sighed: "The word 'love' in the world is annoying. When there is affection, happiness is extreme, and when there is ruthlessness, it hurts people the most. ”

Xiao Liying, who was originally sympathetic, heard Tianxiao say this, and immediately "fluttered" and said with a smile: "How old are you, you said so vicissitudes." You haven't been in love, have you? The word ''love' is annoying, haha!"

Tianxiao's face flushed, and he bowed his head and said no more.

Lu Mingyao and Tianyao are also happy, Tianxiao is mature and stable, but when facing Xiao Liying, he is like a child.

After Lu Mingyao laughed, she continued: "When the person you like was snatched away by Senior Brother Yan, Senior Brother Li Qingyang was very angry. But he didn't obstruct it much, I guess he just thought that as long as his sister was happy, he just wanted it. But later, when he heard that his senior sister was soon abandoned, he couldn't get angry, so he came to Taiqing Sect alone to find Senior Brother Yan to settle accounts, and was finally appeased by our Sect Master Li's kind words and sent back to the sect at night. At that time, Sect Master Li was furious with Senior Brother Yan, and punished him for thinking about it on the wall, and he was not allowed to go down the mountain for five years. ”

Tianxiao and Tianyao suddenly recalled in their hearts that after their junior sister Zhu Xiaomin went up the mountain, Li Yuanxiao talked about the emotional entanglement with Zhu Qingxue back then, and his face was full of vicissitudes and helplessness. He had regrets in love, no wonder he was so angry about it.

After Senior Brother Li Qingyang returned to the sect, he wanted to comfort his traumatized junior sister, but the poor girl felt shameless to face Senior Brother Li and refused. Brother Li was heartbroken and fell seriously ill, and since then, his health has been poor. Even the strand of white hair on his forehead turned white overnight from excessive grief at that time. Senior Brother Li Qingyang is really a person who values love and righteousness. In contrast, our Senior Brother Yan ......" Lu Mingyao didn't finish his words.

Xiao Liying took over the conversation: "Senior Brother Yan is a person who plays the love field. He seems to only enjoy the process of pursuing a beautiful girl and the joy of pursuing success, but he does not care to protect the final result. So I rejected him at first, lest I be the next victim. ”

"That's why I said that you are smarter than Senior Sister Xiao, hehe. Lu Mingyao said.

"Senior Sister Lu, looking at the recent situation, Senior Brother Yan seems to have a little bit of meaning to you!" Tianyao joked with Lu Mingyao.

Unexpectedly, Lu Mingyao listened, but turned her face, stared at Tianyao's eyes, and said word by word: "If Senior Brother Yan could be as good as you, I would have agreed a long time ago." ”

"Uh......" on the contrary, Tianyao was speechless.

Seeing his embarrassed appearance, Lu Mingyao showed a sly smile: "I don't know what he thinks? If he wants to please me, I'll let him go, but in the end, I'll take advantage of him, hehe. ”

When several people heard this, they all laughed.

"Hello fellow Daoists of the Taiqing Sect, Senior Brother Li didn't introduce a few of us to you in detail just now. My name is Cao Ruiqian, and I just ascended to the Yuanying realm not long ago. One of the several disciples of the Night Sect behind him stepped forward and accosted a few people. Then, several other disciples also stepped forward to introduce themselves.

"Hello fellow Daoists, my name is Bi Qiongfang, and I am now in the middle realm of harmony. A female disciple said shyly.

"My name is Wu Yantong, and I have met you in the late period of Hehe. Another very handsome male disciple arched his hand.

......

After a few people introduced themselves, the realm level of the disciples sent by the Yeli Sect this time was as follows: there are a total of three in the Yuan Infant Period, in addition to Li Qingyang in the late Yuan Infant period and Cao Ruiqian in the early Yuan Infant Period, there is also a person named Zhang Yirong, who is a cold and glamorous woman in the late Yuan Infant Period. The remaining three are all in the realm of harmony, Wu Yantong in the late stage of harmony, Bi Qiongfang in the middle of harmony, and the last male disciple in the middle of harmony is called Zhong Xinxiang.

Tianxiao and Tianyao also returned the salute one by one, reporting their names and realms. Among immortal cultivators, if they are not in a hostile situation, it is rude to casually spread their spiritual sense to probe the cultivation realm of others.

Now that we have known each other, we will gather together and move forward together. Of course, Yan Luoting and Li Qingyang still guarded the team one after the other, and they did not get very close to everyone.

It can be seen that the disciples of the Yeli Sect have not left the sect for a long time, and after breaking the embarrassment of face-to-face, everyone talked enthusiastically and talked about the affairs of each other's sects.

Tianxiao and Tianyao always walked side by side, and Bi Qiongfang, the female disciple of the middle stage of the harmony sect of the Yeli Sect, walked next to the two of them, and plucked up the courage to say: "He Tianxiao and He Tianyao, two senior brothers, little sister, I have just entered the middle stage of harmony, and I still have some questions about cultivating immortals. I've always heard that the sword book of the Taiqing Sect is superb, and I don't know if the two senior brothers can guide me in the future. ”

Before Tianxiao and Tianyao could speak, Xiao Liying replied with a smile: "Senior Sister Bi, let's not talk about anything else, your two 'senior brothers' are a little early." Don't look at them as mid-stage of harmony, they don't have to be older than you. ”

Although people who cultivate immortals can't tell the specific age, they can guess the general idea after knowing the realm of cultivation. Bi Qiongfang looked at the two of them suspiciously: "Oh, it usually takes eight and a half years to cultivate immortals to the middle stage of harmony. The disciples of the Taiqing Sect are extremely talented, and it generally takes about eight years. The little sister is not talented, and she has been cultivating immortals for seven years and ten months now. Just listening to Senior Sister Xiao's tone, Tianxiao and Tianyao have not been cultivating for a long time, how many years, seven and a half years, or seven years?"

The corners of Tianxiao's mouth rose slightly, and he replied, "Senior Sister Xiao is right, the two of us should indeed call you Senior Sister Bi." ”

Bi Qiongfang's eyes lit up, and she said happily: "Then I'll call you two junior brothers." But how many years have you two been cultivating?"

"Six Years ......"
