.

After a long while, Zeng and others recovered from their shock. The three of them looked at each other and saw the utmost shock in each other's eyes. But the difference was that there was something more in the eyes of the two women, Lu Xueqi and Wenmin.

Terrified and confused.

Has this secret, which only a few disciples of Big Bamboo Peak and Little Bamboo Peak know, and which Master Daoxuan has privately ordered several times not to be divulged, was still leaked?

Unlike Wen Min and Lu Xueqi, Zeng, who had no idea about the destruction of the 'Zhuxian Ancient Sword', was even more surprised by the news itself. But when he came back to his senses, he laughed and said with a relaxed expression: 'Master Yun

Uncle, why are you making a joke about us three juniors? I was almost scared to death by you just now. The Zhuxian Ancient Sword is the supreme treasure of the Qingyun Sect and is personally kept by the master uncle. How could it be damaged!

Haha, hahaha...'

Amid the laughter, Zeng kept shaking his head and laughing. He turned to look at his two companions, wanting to see how they were laughing at this ridiculous rumor. However, after he turned his head, the smile on his face froze slightly︱︱Lu Xueqi and

There was no trace of a smile on Wen Min's face. On the contrary, the two women frowned and looked a little pale.

Above the hall, only Zeng's laughter echoed, and it quickly died down.

Yun Yilan smiled slightly and said: 'It turns out to be a rumor! That would be the best, otherwise if the ancient sword of Zhu Xian is damaged, it will really be a big event that shocks the world.'

Lu Xueqi suddenly took a step forward and said coldly to Yun Yilan: 'Uncle Yun, of course this is a false rumor and cannot be believed, but I wonder where did the seniors learn about such despicable rumors?'

As she spoke, Lu Xueqi's voice became colder and colder, already sounding a little rude.

But Yun Yilan seemed to be very well-educated. He didn't care about Lu Xueqi's attitude at all. He just waved his hands in his kind manner and said: "Actually, this rumor has only spread here in southern Xinjiang recently. I

I overheard what the disciples said, and I guessed that most of them were untrue. Thinking about it, with Senior Brother Daoxuan’s magical powers, how could such nonsense happen? However, a few nephews happened to be here, so I asked him by the way.

Asked, I learned from the three people that it was indeed a rumor, and I was really happy! Haha..." After saying this, he smiled and looked very happy.

Lu Xueqi and the other three people all frowned slightly. How could such a thing be asked 'casually' in public? What's more, Yun Yilan's identity was not trivial. How could such a rumor like roadside gossip be questioned in person?

After thinking about it, I'm afraid he has other ideas.

Amid Yun Yilan's laughter, the three members of the Qingyun Sect fell silent. Lu Xueqi's face was as frosty and cold as a human being, but the gaze in her eyes seemed to be getting sharper and sharper. Wen Min's expression was also extremely unpleasant.

nice.

After all, Zeng was tactful. Seeing that the atmosphere was getting more and more embarrassing, he coughed quickly, stood up in front of Lu Xueqi, cupped his hands and said, "Uncle Yun, what you did when you sent us to southern Xinjiang is

Following the traces of the beast monster, I wonder if you have any clues that you can tell us so that we can avoid running around blindly.'

Yun Yilan glanced at Zeng, nodded slightly, but said nothing, and glanced behind her.

Li Xun understood, took a step forward, and said to Zeng, "Senior brother Zeng, I am Li Xun. I have been ordered by my master to serve as a guide in southern Xinjiang during this period, and for you..."

‘Humph!’ A slightly angry snort came from the side before Li Xun could finish his words.

After Li Xun spoke for a moment, his expression suddenly turned ugly.

Fortunately, Wen Min was smart and quickly smiled and said: 'Brother Li, I don't need to trouble you about this. Some of us have been to southern Xinjiang before, and we still know some roads.'

Li Xun took a deep breath, glanced at the white-clothed figure next to him from the corner of his eye, and moved the corner of his mouth. Suddenly, all the anger seemed to disappear, and he just sighed softly and said with a wry smile: "This senior sister, it's not what I want.

It's just that our sect has recently tracked down the news about the missing beast god.'

As soon as these words came out, Lu Xueqi, Zeng, and Wenmin were shocked and moved.

Zeng said happily: "Is this true?"

Li Xun nodded and said, "Yes. No matter what, Fenxiang Valley's hundreds of years of foundation and connections in southern Xinjiang are still better known than other outsiders." After that, he glanced at Lu Xueqi again intentionally or unintentionally, and Lu Xueqi's face was indifferent.

Turned his head.

Zeng asked: 'Where is the beast god at this moment?'

Li Xun said: 'According to our news, the evildoer has escaped into the strange and deep depths of Shiwan Mountain and is heading towards his lair.'

Zeng and others were startled and said: "One hundred thousand mountains?"

Li Xun nodded and said, "That's right. I don't need to tell you where. You must have heard about it. It's dangerous, strange, and mysterious. It's one of the most dangerous places in the world. If you hadn't come, I was about to lead a group of people."

All the junior brothers set out to search in the Shiwan Mountains. This time, three of them happened to be here. Wouldn't it be better if we all went together? I have no other intention, but in any case, I have been in southern Xinjiang for many years, and I am more or less familiar with those people.

If you know something about the unpredictable and extremely dangerous Shiwandashan, it might be beneficial and harmless to the three of you if you have me as your guide!'

After saying that, he sneered twice.

Zeng frowned, glanced at Wen Min and Lu Xueqi behind him, and said, "Senior Brother Li, please stay here. The three of us will discuss it for a while."

Li Xun nodded and said: 'Everyone, please excuse me.'

Zeng and the other three stepped aside and talked in low voices. From Li Xun's perspective, Zeng was talking most of the time. Sometimes Wenmin would interject a few words, but Lu Xueqi said nothing, just shook her head silently, and

Or just nod.

The woman in white seemed to have always been so beautiful and beautiful, standing there quietly. Li Xun looked at Lu Xueqi from a distance, and seemed to be crazy for a moment. At this moment, someone suddenly tapped him on the shoulder, and Li Xun

I was shocked, I didn't expect someone to be so close to me and I couldn't notice it. I quickly turned around and it was Yun Yilan.

Li Xun's face turned red and he whispered: 'Master, this disciple has lost his composure, what's the matter?'

Yun Yilan glanced at Lu Xueqi, her face expressionless, and she just said lightly: 'Don't forget the burden you carry.'

Li Xun was shaken and said in a low voice: 'Disciple understands.'

Yun Yilan nodded and said: "You take care of them, I'll leave first." After that, he didn't say hello to the three people from the Qingyun Sect and went on his own.

Li Xun watched Yun Yilan disappear at the entrance of the back hall of Shanhe Hall, with mixed feelings in his heart and a face that seemed uncertain.

At this time, the three people from Zeng's place seemed to have already discussed the matter and came back.

Zeng walked over with a smile on his face and said with a smile: 'Senior Brother Li, the three of us have agreed that this time... Hey, where is Senior Uncle Yun?'

Li Xun said apologetically: "My master had something to do at the moment, and seeing the three of them discussing it, I ordered you not to disturb me, and I went first. I hope you will forgive me for being disrespectful."

Zeng hurriedly said: "No, no, we were too rude. If there was anything wrong just now, please tell Senior Brother Li to reply to Senior Uncle Yun. We are juniors, we don't know etiquette, and we don't know how high the sky is. So don't care about him."

.'

Hearing Zeng's words flow out of their mouths like flowing water, Lu Xueqi and Wenmin both looked a little embarrassed, but Zeng was calm and didn't look embarrassed at all.

Li Xun also smiled and nodded. He said no more and just said: 'What is the result of those people's discussion?'

Zeng Yi cupped his hand and said: 'This time I still have to trouble Senior Brother Li.'

Li Xun's face flashed with joy, and he returned the greeting: "Hey, we are a righteous family, so we should be like this." As he said that, he glanced at Lu Xueqi, then looked back, coughed, and said: "

However, Shiwandashan is a dangerous place after all, so you still need to make preparations in advance. Now, let me first tell you some things that need to be paid attention to.'

Zeng smiled and said: 'Thank you, Senior Brother Li.' After saying that, he turned around and waved, and said: 'Two senior sisters, please come over and listen together.'

Lu Xueqi frowned and seemed a little reluctant, but was pulled by Wen Min next to her and walked over.

The low voice echoed in the Shanhe Palace...

Deep in the Shiwan Mountain, leaving the last trace of darkness and stepping over the last crooked old tree, Gui Li and Jin Ping'er finally walked out of the dark forest. Outside the forest, this day was a rare sight in the Shiwan Mountain.

The warm sunshine shone down, brushed over their bodies, and fell on the twisted trees, but it still couldn't shine into the mysterious and solemn forest.

Jin Ping'er opened her arms. Although she had been here once, she still felt relieved when she walked out of this forest. Indeed, if she walked in a forest full of poisonous insects and heavy rain for several days, no one would be able to

You won't be in a good mood.

Standing outside the forest, it was as if the breath inhaled into the body was much warmer and more comfortable. After Jin Ping'er took a deep breath with satisfaction, he turned to look at Gui Li, and saw the expression on Gui Li's face who had just walked out of the dark forest.

Despite his usual indifference, he could clearly see he was relieved.

After a slight pause to rest, Gui Li looked up into the distance. Under the rare good weather, the field of vision was wide. There seemed to be endless mountains in the distance. The mountains were rolling up and down, one after another, until the horizon was as far as the eye could see, and there was no end in sight.

.

Gui Li changed his color slightly, and Jin Ping'er walked up to him, glanced at him, and said with a smile: "Why, I didn't expect that the bad land in southern Xinjiang is so vast, right? I was also surprised when I first came here."

of.'

Gui Li looked far away, lingering among the figures in the mountains, and said lightly: 'How far is the distance to the ancient demon-suppressing cave you mentioned?'

Jin Ping'er smiled charmingly, took two steps, and looked at the endless mountains in front of Gui Li for a while. Then he stretched out his hand and pointed at one of the peaks with a strange charred appearance from the top down, and said: 'See

Is that black mountain peak there? We climbed over the top of that mountain, and at the foot of the mountain is where the Ancient Demon-Suppressing Cave is.'

Gui Li looked up and saw that very strange mountain peak. From a distance, there seemed to be no sunlight at all. On the contrary, it was always shrouded in a light black mist, showing a bit of mystery.

Gui Li nodded and said: 'Then let's go!'

After that, he moved forward, but Jin Ping'er didn't move, and still stood where he was.

Gui Li walked a few steps and felt that Jin Ping'er hadn't followed him. He was slightly surprised, turned around and said, 'What's wrong?'

Jin Ping'er rolled her eyes at him, but even that angry look, in the warm sunshine, was a bit charming, "You are naturally a powerful person, but it's a pity that the person in front of you is a weak woman, and she can't leave now."

It's time to move.'

Gui Li said calmly: 'I have counted all the women in the world, but it is not your turn to be a weak woman.'

Jin Ping'er smiled sweetly and was not angry. He found a dry stone next to him and sat down.

Although Gui Li did not take Jin Ping'er's words seriously, he suddenly felt that neither of them had had a good rest in the strange black forest these past few days. At that moment, he no longer insisted on continuing on the road, but instead walked in Jin Ping'er's house.

He also sat down not far away.

The monkey Xiao Hui who had been lying on Gui Li's shoulder screamed twice, seeming to suddenly wake up from his depression. He suddenly regained his energy and jumped from Gui Li's shoulder to the ground. He looked around with his three eyes blinking.
