Where is this?

A sea of red flowers that comes into view, a maid kneeling on the ground and holding the flower dew with a porcelain bowl. The wind blows in your face with a dull scent, and your skin touches the soft mist.

A rather subtle feeling swept over the body, and emotions couldn't help but relax.

Yin Fan walked across the compacted dirt road, and a large hall appeared in front of him. The main hall is hollowed out on all sides, and the roof is held up by tall pillars.

A chair came into view. The high back, the wide surface, the arched armrests, and the indistinguishable symbols carved on them.

This is not a chair, but a dark red stone throne.

The main hall was empty, except for the crimson petals that filled the entire space when the wind poured in.

Where exactly?

Yin Fan frowned and thought, but there was no result, and he didn't have the slightest clue that made him feel very bad.

It stands to reason that at this time, he should still be participating in the Heavenly Palace Sect in the Santu River Basin. Whether or not this place that suddenly flashed out of the darkness was a hallucination created by someone, he still did not know.

As a result, Lin Min, who was quite alert, filled his body.

Yang raised his hand and wanted to take out the Heavenly Demon Sword, but there was no response. Under his thoughts, none of the swords in the Xuantian Bagua Sword Array appeared, and the crystal did not know where to go.

Faced with this wonderful scene, Yin Fan finally shrugged his shoulders.

Walking around the main hall and heading forward, he couldn't help but walk down a path paved with small stones. As for the reason, I guess it belongs to the category of "I've walked it many times before".

Thinking of this, Yin Fan was even more puzzled in his heart.

Walked through it many times before. Before, when was it?

At this moment, a figure in red appeared in her sight, the color of her clothes was the same as that of crystal, but the clothes she wore were more complicated. The similarity is except for the color of the clothes, which is the straight, long black hair.

Looking at it, her hair suddenly turned red.

"Your hair is beautiful. Yin Fan couldn't help but exclaim from the bottom of his heart.

"Really?" the woman looked back and smiled at her.

Seeing her face, even if he was accustomed to seeing wonderful people like the world spirit and the master, Yin Fan was still taken by her appearance.

It doesn't matter who is more beautiful, I just want to be amazed.

Just like before.

"Of course. You're also good-looking. Well, it's as good-looking as my family Ling'er and master. ”

At such a moment, Yin Fan still did not forget to praise his family.

"They......" the woman frowned.

The murderous aura that appeared between her eyebrows, I wonder if it was Yin Fan's illusion?

"Come ......"

The woman suddenly stood up from the ground with a smile, took his hand and ran into the sea of flowers that spread over her waist, the fragrant smell covered her body, but it was not as good as her body fragrance wafting from the front.

Passing through a small hill, a canyon appeared in view, and her taste was even stronger when she walked through the passage where you were only allowed to move forward diagonally.

"Where are you going?"

"Shhh......hhh

Soon, a fresh breeze blew across his face, and another world appeared outside the passage.

The blue sky replaced the dull yellow, the green grass spread down the hillside, and a small house could be seen where the forest and the lake met.

A wooden path was built in front of the house leading to the lake, and a boat was tied to a wooden stake and swayed slightly on the rippling surface of the lake.

The woman let go of Yin Fan's hand and ran forward, then turned around gracefully and saluted, and said with a smile:

"Welcome to my secret territory, brother......"

The picture suddenly freezes in this scene, and everything flies away from the eyes, as if the space is broken in front of the eyes, and finally falls into a blurry black dot. Then a ray of light flashed from the depths, eventually filling his entire field of vision.

Yin Fan covered his eyes with his hand and squinted his eyes to look around.

It was early morning, the light pierced the eyes, and the birds kept chirping. Except for him who woke up, the rest of the people in Penglai were still asleep.

Looking up, the sun had not long risen. They hadn't closed their eyes for four days and three nights, and with the battle with other sects last night, the less than four hours of sleep was precious.

"Hmm. ”

The crystal buried in his arms made a strange sound, and then kept talking and had a silly smile on his face.

"You slept so soundly. ”

Zhai Yingxue's voice came from the side, and it sounded the same as last night's fatigue. Yin Fan turned her head, and her eyes opened at this moment.

It wasn't a look that could only be seen after waking up, and while it was full of vigilance, fatigue flashed in it.

"Sister Xue, should you ......?"

"If I didn't even dare to close my eyes last night, how would you sleep peacefully?"

With a gentle tone and a smile on her face, she was very different from the way she killed last night. Thinking of himself again, Yin Fan couldn't help but blush a little.

"Now that you're awake, come with me and take a walk. ”

She got up from the boulder she was leaning against and walked to the river not far away. The slightly dim clear river water reflected her shadow, and Yin Fan's shadow was reflected again.

"My first snow scabbard has another name. ”

While saying this, Zhai Yingxue picked up the First Snow Fairy Sword. The scabbard that encased the blade glistened in the sunlight.

Seeing that she hadn't said the name, Yin Fan couldn't help but ask:

"What is it?"

Zhai Yingxue turned her head, stared into his eyes, and said its name in a faint tone.

"Sword of Guardianship. ”

Yin Fan was stunned for a moment, and quickly frowned. He didn't understand the meaning of Zhai Yingxue's words.

"A sword that is only made to protect others. Zhai Yingxue looked at the river again, "It's not just me, as long as the Penglai disciple who is given a position after the combined hall, he will be given a guardian name, which is something that few people in the sect know." ”

"Huh?" Yin Fan really didn't know such a thing. But yes, he was not given a position in Penglai, of course, there would not be such a thing as a guardian.

But at this time, Zhai Yingxue continued as if she had seen through what he was thinking:

"You may be thinking, and if you are not given a position, there will naturally be no guardian or anything like that, right?"

Yin Fan frowned again, and shallow wrinkles appeared on his forehead.

"The Penglai Sect has been for a long time beyond imagination, but have you ever thought that in just these few decades, Penglai has had a large number of people who have returned to the ruins realm, so where did the people go a hundred years ago? Two hundred years ago?"

"Where have you been?" Yin Fan stared at Zhai Yingxue.

"Five hundred years ago, the hall was more than a struggle on the surface. Although they are cultivators, they still have mad loyalty to power. Because of the deprivation of power, the disciples who were separated and the disciples who were hidden in the shadows all started to fight to varying degrees. Even in that battle a few decades ago, the hall master of the Elixir Hall was even more ......"

Her face was a little unsightly, and she sighed and continued:

"In short, after the ideological clash of different factions five hundred years ago, Uncle Zhenjing immediately put forward the idea of 'protection'. As long as you wear the 'elder's garment', it means protection. And the so-called guardianship refers to the protection of a certain person or something according to your wishes, but most people will choose to protect the sect. ”

Speaking of this, Zhai Yingxue turned her head to look at Yin Fan with a stunned expression.

"I don't think you ever made that oath. ”

"Sister Xue, you...... How do you know?"

Zhai Yingxue smiled like an iceberg melting, and then said something that made people anxious.

"I'm not going to tell you. ”

“......”

Zhai Yingxue turned around and walked towards the crowd, looking at her appearance, probably to wake everyone up.

"Sister Xue!" Yin Fan hurriedly called out to her.

"What's wrong?" Zhai Yingxue's face showed a puzzled look that should have belonged to Yin Fan.

"Tell me what this guardian means, what is it?"

"Well, maybe you'll find out soon. ”

Zhai Yingxue showed a rare girlish mentality, turned around and raised the first snow sword, and woke everyone up with an unusually sharp wind and snow.

In the wind and snow, Zhai Yingxue's black and white palace master dress was particularly dazzling.

"Let's go, the north is very lively now, if we don't go, we'll miss it. ”

Zhai Yingxue didn't wait for everyone to wake up, and had already taken steps towards the north. Yin Fan stared at Zhai Yingxue's back and chased after him.

On the way, Yun Li approached Yin Fan's side.

"Do you have something on your mind?" Yunli said.

"I have something on my mind and it's none of your business. Yin Fan rolled his eyes.

Yun Li saw that he didn't want to say anything and didn't ask anymore, and walked side by side with him.

And Yin Fan was searching for all the information he knew in Penglai in his mind at the moment, and wanted to guess the intention of Zhai Yingxue to say this.

Unfortunately, it didn't have the slightest effect.

Speaking of which, when he was in Penglai, he really hadn't seen many people wearing his black cuffs and black collar. Even Niu Zunwu, who was smashed crazy by a crystal arm on the Mohai Island, was just this kind of clothes.

...... Niu Zunwu?

"Yun Li's nephew. Yin Fan's voice was very soft.

"Huh?" Yun Li raised an eyebrow.

"Elder Niu Zunwu, have you seen it recently?" Yin Fan asked, ignoring his expression.

"Niu Zunwu?" Yun Li showed a puzzled look on his face, "Why did you suddenly remember to ask him?"

"You also know that I don't know many elders, I met him when I went to rob Yin Mountain last time, haven't you seen him for a long time?" ”

As a matter of course, Yun Li narrowed his eyes and stared at him with a rather questioning expression. When Yin Fan felt weak, Yunli finally answered.

"I saw him when I went down to Penglai not long ago. ”

"When was it not so long ago?"

Yin Fan asked casually. In the eyes of cultivators, not long ago, it was estimated that it would be counted by year. If it was two months ago, there was nothing abnormal, if it was more than two or three months, the deeds of Niu Zunwu and others could be said to be quite abnormal, maybe you can know something from this aspect, and think about the meaning of Zhai Yingxue......

"About the end of April, when I rushed from Penglai to Tiangong Huidao. ”

Yin Fan involuntarily stopped and looked at Yunli in a daze.

"How?"

Yun Li was also surprised to see him stop suddenly.

"Are you sure it's not March?"

"I just saw it a few days ago, how could it be March. ”

Yun Li was very ugly for his low-level questioning. At this time, Yin Fan's vision was unintentionally noticed that Xi Hao's eyes had been looking here, and he immediately turned around after discovering that Yin Fan saw him.

"Let's go. ”

Yin Fan walked forward quickly past Yunli, his face was gloomy, no matter how much Yunli asked what happened, he was just silent.

And in his heart, there was a huge voice that kept shouting "how is it possible, how is it possible......"

It's really impossible. There is no need to doubt it at all, Niu Zunwu and the other two Penglai elders must be dead. In that case, unless it's a Blood Charm, there's absolutely no chance of resurrection.

But since Yun Li can say that he has seen Niu Zunwu, and he does not have any "death" phenomenon. There was only one possibility—someone disguised himself as Niu Zunwu and replaced him.

But for some reason, there was an unspeakable panic in Yin Fan's heart that pointed the answer to another, impossible result.

Niu Zunwu lived.

If that's the case, in a short period of time, the robbery is Yin Fan and Yin Fan is Penglai's disciple Fanyi, and such news will reach his ears. At that time, will Niu Zunwu take a preemptive move before anyone else?

But does Wu Ling Dao know what these people who don't support the Harmony Hall are doing in secret?

- Not true.

When asked about the Harmony Hall by the True Mirror, she refuses to answer from the front, as if intent on disconnecting some kind of information.

But there is no reason for this.

Wu Ling Dao is also her apprentice, and she is also the head of Penglai, so she should tell Wu Ling Dao immediately if there is any trouble.

Suddenly, all the points of direction of this mystery were cut off. And because of the guardian things that Zhai Yingxue said intentionally or unintentionally, it makes all this more complicated.

Problems such as the curse, the time calamity, the courtyard of Penglai, the Heavenly Palace, and so on, were blended together at this moment.

-- Why?

Source. Yin Fan started thinking from the source.

The clan changed dramatically and fled to the town of Qianqi in Jiusang Mountain. Bai Mohou's greed or other reasons avoided Jiusang, and it was at this time that he came into contact with the origin of the thing, the Blood Silk Talisman. After that, the realm spirit and the little white horse accidentally got the sword intent of the Sword Emperor Chongtian, and then there was a warning from Yizhang Huaihai......

"Huh?"

In an unknown mood, he couldn't help but immediately remember what Ichijo Huaihai had said at the beginning.

- Don't be greedy**, ruin this female donor, and also ruin the man in Tsing Yi......

Why would Yizhang Huaihai say such ambiguous words? What is the relationship between the world spirit and Luo Qingyi?

Yin Fan suddenly had a terrible headache, and he couldn't think about it anymore.

Vaguely, he felt a great darkness coming at him.
