Chapter 9: Ice Edge

A few rays of sunlight sprinkled on the table, shining the copper lampstand, this is a chic small courtyard, the roof tile walls are similar to the place where Liu Qingmian lived before, but in terms of quality, it is much better, and this is the residence of the inner disciple of Chi Wanfeng!

Liu Qingmian retracted her gaze to look out the window, it was already dawn, she should also get up and practice, as for why she became an inner disciple, it had to start from the day she came back.

With the help of Senior Sister Huameng, she successfully returned to the master's gate, and it was as deserted as usual, but her master Feng Ling didn't go out that day.

Hua Meng first took her to the place where she and her senior sisters lived, as she expected, the grass at the door here was an inch high, and her two senior sisters should have worshiped other branches. Entering her familiar room, it was clean, even neater than when she left, and her few personal belongings were neatly stored in wooden cabinets.

With this curiosity, the two of them then came to Feng Ling's residence, which was a small courtyard, located on the high cliff of Chiwan Peak, surrounded by trees, which could not be seen clearly from the outside, and there was a small stream around it, which was very pleasant.

Both were here for the first time, and they walked around the outside to find the entrance. Although Hua Meng and Feng Ling are both three generations of disciples, they don't have much intersection, and she is also very curious about Feng Ling, a "famous" peer.

The fence of the courtyard wall was not locked, and when pushed open, it made a soft noise, which also alarmed the people inside.

"Mian'er?" Although she hadn't seen her for a long time, she still remembered Feng Ling's voice very clearly. A year has not left a mark on her face, the same robe, the same hairstyle, as if everything was just yesterday. Liu Qingmian knows very well that her master is actually a person who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside, and it is not as strange as rumored by the outside world, but she is used to being indifferent to things that she doesn't care about, but she is still conscientious to a few disciples under her door, but she is not good at expressing it.

But today, Feng Ling's expression was also a little out of control, and there was another day of "dumbfounded" expression on her old-fashioned face. Liu Qingmian trotted over, arrived in front of him in a few steps, and bowed heavily: "Master!

After a long time, a warm hand gently fell on her head: "Hey, it's good to be back!"

Liu Qingmian raised his head and smiled at Feng Ling.

She saw the green leaves and branches on Liu Qingmian's clothes, her eyes were full of surprise, and she laughed: "Your clothes are very chic!"

Half an hour later, the three of them sat on the tables and chairs in the small courtyard, and Feng Ling brought freshly brewed flower tea and a stack of osmanthus cakes. ”

Hua Meng is not polite, these things are practical but not expensive, her two personalities are not the kind of people who are vain and wronged, what she says she wants to give is really to give, not to be polite, so it is very speculative to talk about it now, and there is a feeling of hating each other.

Hua Meng took a sip of tea and continued: "That Demon Sect disciple is so cunning that he actually ran to the Imperial City of the World, where it is inconvenient for me to play, I lost it after he blended into the crowd, but judging from his exercises, he is very similar to a person in the Ten Thousand Caves." ”

Ten Thousand Hells Cave! Liu Qingmian still remembers the message on the scroll that prompted him to go to the Ten Thousand Shadows, is it really such a coincidence?

After hearing this, Feng Ling frowned and thought for a while, and said: "This matter made the head very annoyed, that person actually knew where the head was, and deliberately bypassed, and the sisters in charge of guarding the sect didn't notice his breath, if it wasn't for the senior sister who found him, Xiao Mian really wouldn't have come back." Think about it carefully, among the several major demon sects in the world, there are only a handful of them who can do this. ”

"Makes sense. Hua Meng nodded, the two exchanged a look, then changed the topic, and began to warm up Liu Qingmian.

Liu Qingmian said in his heart, I don't want to say anything when my ears are pricked up??

This chat can talk about her two senior sisters, they woke up after the two of them were not in big trouble, but when they heard that their junior sister was taken away, they were so anxious that they cried, both of them successfully passed the assessment later, Lin Yurou went to Baihua Peak as she wished, and Zhong Hanyan actually made the same choice as her. In the days that followed, they went back to Chi Wanfeng to see it many times, and each time they helped Liu Qingmian clean the house and looked forward to her return.

Liu Qingmian listened to these words, and her heart warmed, she used to be afraid and resisted this strange world, until now, she has gradually adapted, and she also has the people she wants to protect.

When the last piece of dim sum was finished, Hua Meng got up and said goodbye, this sword idiot couldn't beat the sword practice time every day, and she had to go back to prepare as soon as the time came, and she couldn't be delayed at any time.

The small courtyard that watched the bustle just now was quiet again, but it was no longer lonely here, and the teacher and apprentice were speechless.

Compared with Liu Qingmian's two junior sisters, she and Feng Ling are much more compatible, both of them have quiet personalities, the difference is that Liu Qingmian knows more about human feelings, but Feng Ling is too lazy to care.

For example, she has been looking at Liu Qingmian now, and she may have been unhappy if she changed someone else, but Liu Qingmian knew that the master should be doing the right thing at this time, and sure enough, Feng Ling quickly ended the visit, and exclaimed: "Yes, you can already build the foundation, with your current level of internal breath, you don't have to participate in the assessment of the sect, Xiaomian, which peak do you want to go to?"

"Please also ask the master to let the disciple stay in Chi Wanfeng!" Liu Qingmian had already thought of the answer, just waiting for her to ask.

Feng Ling's eyes flashed, but his face pretended to be serious: "Xiao Mian has thought about it, Master has no money, and he doesn't have any treasures for you, so he may not learn much from me." ”

The reason why Liu Qingmian stayed here was because of her feelings on the one hand, and on the other hand, it was the terrible thing she hid in her body.

The blind jade bracelet needs to operate with internal breath, she has tried how long she can last without stopping, and the latest answer is, one month, why do you say "latest"? Because in the past year or so, relying on the tempering of the internal breath by the "Heavenly Heart Secret Record", its quality and capacity have reached twice that of ordinary Qi refining stage disciples, and the recovery speed is much faster than before. She even had the idea of staying in the mountains until she cultivated her inner breath capacity to the point where she was invincible in the world before going out, but her wish was quickly frustrated, because this method had had little effect as her cultivation had stagnated, and if she wanted to continue to break through, she needed to reach a new realm as soon as possible.

The blind jade bracelet itself doesn't need much internal breath, so she can continue to run for a month at present, but this is on the premise that she won't use a lot of internal breath during the period.

A month's time is just a snap of the fingers for a cultivator, if she goes to a place like Baihua Peak, where there are many masters, even if the blind jade bracelet can hide it for a while, she won't be able to last long, not to mention that she can't keep it all the time.

And the uninhabited Chi Wanfeng is perfect for her, and more importantly, Master mentioned in the chat just now that she is going out next week!

"Xiao Mian?" Feng Ling's voice pulled her back from her thoughts, and Liu Qingmian nodded hurriedly: "The disciple has thought about it! The disciple will never regret it!"

Hearing her answer, Feng Ling was very happy, she got up and motioned for Liu Qingmian to follow her, and the two walked out of the small courtyard and came to an intersection behind the courtyard that was blocked by vegetation.

Feng Ling tapped on the trunk of the tree next to him with one hand, and the vines and branches on the ground suddenly churned and crawled, like thousands of thin snakes, centering on the middle road, retreating to both sides, vacating a brick path in the middle that could accommodate two people in parallel, the path winded upwards until it submerged into the bend in front of it, and there seemed to be a faint sound of water nearby, but the direction could not be heard here.

It was not surprising that there was such a prohibition hidden on Yunxian Mountain, but Feng Ling's ability to drive plants with this hand made Liu Qingmian even more curious about her.

Not allowing her to think too much, Feng Ling had already walked along the path, but she thoughtfully slowed down her pace so that Liu Qingmian could walk side by side with her, and when the two of them passed the bend, the sound of the previous water became clear, and she saw that the lake in front of her was sparkling, and there was a natural lake hidden in the depths of the mountains.

But Feng Ling did not stop, but continued to walk inside around the lake, and Liu Qingmian had no choice but to continue to follow.

"Sleepy. ”

"The disciple is here!"

Feng Ling said with emotion: "How can I be so virtuous that I can receive such a smart disciple as you?" I still remember the first time I saw you, I said that your qualifications were not suitable for cultivation, and now it seems that I am afraid that it is not suitable for me. ”

Liu Qingmian hurriedly interrupted her: "Master, what are you talking nonsense? Are you questioning my choice by saying this?"

Feng Ling was stunned, and waved his hand again and again: "No, no, I didn't mean that!Hey, stupid apprentice, I just don't think I'm a good master!" Feng Ling stopped under a lesson tree, looked towards the lake, as if looking for something, and continued: "Chi Wanfeng is not very outstanding in all aspects, so he is always at the end of the sect, have you thought about it?"

Liu Qingmian smiled: "I already knew the situation of Chi Wanfeng!"

"Yes. Feng Ling was teased by her, and his mood improved: "With your cultivation, you will be able to cultivate that imperial weapon method immediately." ”

Liu Qingmian's eyes lit up, and then he said distressedly: "But I haven't figured out what to use to make a treasure." ”

"Everyone in the world pursues refining magic weapons that are in line with their own hearts, and Senior Sister Hua Meng's sword that has accompanied her for many years is not perfect, but she has used this sword to kill evil demons and has never missed, so you don't have to worry too much about the selection of materials now, instead of pursuing a divine sword, it is better to practice the art of imperial weapons first. Feng Ling was a little distracted, as if he was saying this to someone else.

Liu Qingmian was worried about how to reply, and it happened that Feng Ling stopped at this time, suddenly raised his hand, and waved a circle with the sleeves of his robe that reached the ground, and then pointed to the middle of the lake, and the waves in the middle of the lake were churning and surging, and a few fish could be seen fleeing in panic. It looked like a lake had been boiled to the ground.

The shock of the current did not last long, because the "culprit" had been gradually lifted out of the lake, and when the vapor that had been carried in the air had dispersed, its true face was finally seen, it was an unsheathed long sword, on which it glowed with a faint brilliance, not like a mortal thing.

Feng Ling cast the spell again, and the long sword flew with a "buzz" and hung in front of the two of them.

Feng Ling looked at Liu Qingmian with a smile and encouraged, "Try it." ”

Liu Qingmian nodded, and then locked his gaze on the sword in front of him. It was only then that she saw clearly the faint streamer on this sword, which came from the complex lines on the sword, although it was not eye-catching, but since she practiced the "Secret Record of Heavenly Heart", it was also a first glimpse of the way to possess the spirit, and the lines on this sword had something worth studying for her.

The hilt of the sword handed, a stream of aura from the sword body came from the palm of the hand, and the sword holder's internal breath converged, giving birth to an intimate induction, although she had not learned swordsmanship, she had an understanding for a while, and couldn't help waving it a few times, but there was no trick, it was very funny.

Feng Ling couldn't help but smile when he saw her appearance, and then said with a straight face: "This sword is called 'Ice Edge', cast by Arctic Xuanice, originally for my own use, but after I entered the Yuan Infant Stage, this sword is no longer suitable for me, so I threw it into the lake as a commemoration." I'll give it to you now, but it's just right!"
