Chapter 59(1/2)
Chu Jinxiao's heart paused slightly, and he actually wanted to smile bitterly after hearing the master's question. The master had always been so bright and graceful, so he didn't know what those people were thinking about him.
That day, he left the Sword Valley and came right after Xie Yuqing and Su Fengyan. If he had been a step late, there would be no telling where the frozen master would go.
As someone who loves Master, no one can see clearly what those people think about Master better than him.
——They all want to get their master.
Whether it's because of appearance or anything else, those people want to take away Master.
He just... didn't want Master to know this.
Chu Jinxiao didn't want to see his master going through life and death for him again after knowing Xie Yuqing's thoughts.
He felt extremely humble and slowly tightened his hand. When Ning Ji looked at him coldly, he just said: "Master, I will not lie to you."
Ning Ji paused with his fingertips and suddenly raised his head.
He was indeed confused for a moment just now, but the bloodshot eyes under Chu Jinxiao still made him slightly startled.
He frowned, a little upset, but didn't say anything else.
…
The distance from the Demon Realm to the Western Continent is not short. When Lou Weiyan realized that there was a problem in the Western Continent, he quickly rushed over.
The spy lost the news outside the alley in the busy city. He closed his eyes and sensed his breath. When he opened his eyes again, he looked stern and walked towards the alley.
There was no one in the alley next to the teahouse. The breath of the dead spy still lingered here.
Lou Weiyan frowned, and suddenly his eyes paused, and he saw the word "dragon" in the corner.
"dragon."
Dragon clan?
It's really him.
Now the only person with dragon bloodline left in the world of cultivation is Chu Jinxiao.
If it was really him... Lou Weiyan suddenly tightened his grip.
The Sky Search Mirror imprinted this breath, and it changed in the mirror. A burst of white light flashed across the mirror and it shook slightly. This time, there was finally a picture.
For ten years, there was no one in the Sky Search Mirror. Now that there was finally a picture, Lou Weiyan paused in his hands and suddenly closed his eyes.
I don't know if it was to escape or something, but he opened his eyes after a while.
Then he saw the scene in Longyuan.
It was a courtyard similar to the Hexue Courtyard on Xie Jian Peak. Lou Weiyan first noticed the peach blossom tree next to the courtyard, and then saw the long sword on the table.
That is Ning Ji's sword.
His pupils suddenly shrank, and his heart tightened slightly. He had fought with Ning Ji several times, and he remembered Ning Ji's sword clearly.
Even though Lou Weiyan had the sword here, he couldn't help but take a deep breath. He concentrated and quickly looked for it, and the person lying breathlessly on the couch in the small building was none other than Ning Ji.
When a familiar face came into view, Lou Weiyan suddenly tightened his grip and breathed a sigh of relief.
On the other side, Ning Ji had just regained consciousness when he seemed to notice someone looking at him.
——Someone is spying on Long Yuan.
Chu Jinxiao also noticed it, and his expression suddenly changed. He originally planned to leave tomorrow, but he didn't expect Lou Weiyan to move so quickly. If he stayed any longer, something might happen.
He turned to look at the master, and Ning Ji's brows relaxed a little: "Let's go."
There is a dragon barrier blocking the dragon abyss, and there are thousands of dragon souls in front of it. Although the cultivation level is not high, it is enough to block Lou Weiyan for some time.
Chu Jinxiao looked at the courtyard and slowly lowered his eyes.
The moment they left Long Yuan, a trace of Ning Ji's aura leaked out.
Xie Yuqing's divination hand paused slightly. He was surprised for the first time, but now he suddenly raised his head.
"Owner?" Wu Gang was a little confused.
Xie Yuqing said in a deep voice: "Bring the hexagram plate again."
Although Wu Gang didn't know why, he still did it.
This time with the hexagram plate divination, the hexagrams are clearer.
He was right. Xie Yuqing's fingertips trembled slightly and he suddenly tightened his grip.
——Ning Ji appeared.
The dragon abyss can conceal the secrets of heaven, and Xie Yuqing calculated it for ten years but failed to figure it out. But the moment Ning Ji came out, the stars began to move again.
Xie Yuqing vomited blood, and his white hair instantly became darker.
"Master!" When Wu Gang stepped forward anxiously, Xie Yuqing raised his hand to stop him.
"Go and get ready, I'm going to Xiluzhou right away."
"But we agreed before that we would discuss matters with other sect leaders..." Wu Gang was a little embarrassed. This discussion was not trivial, and both factions came from nearby.
Xie Yuqing paid no attention to it at all. His originally distant and gentle face was extremely calm. He tightened his hands and said: "Go and prepare!"
Seeing that he persisted and could not wait even a day, Wu Gang had no choice but to retreat.
Xie Yuqing's heartbeat has not calmed down yet.
Ning Ji appeared, that person finally appeared.
Blood seeped out from the corners of his lips, but he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He had been unable to sleep at night for ten years. Ever since he knew that Ning Ji had been eroded by the death energy, he felt relieved that he could finally find him.
Xie Yuqing's fingertips trembled, and he looked up at the sky again, wishing he could see Ning Ji faster.
He couldn't tell what his mood was at this time, but his mind was filled with that person and he couldn't think of anything else.
When Wu Gang came back and saw the poster like this, he sighed in his heart. He had noticed that the poster's feelings seemed a little abnormal.
If I am grateful to Sword Master for saving my life, these years will not stop there.
Tormented by guilt and worry, the poster could hardly hold himself back. Wu Gang had never seen the poster who was hot on the outside and cold on the inside behave like this.
He was truly moved, otherwise he wouldn't...
Thinking of this in his mind, he sighed, hoping that this time it would be smoother and there would be no more troubles along the way.
Xie Yuqing rubbed the medicine bottle in his hand, thought of Ning Ji's name in his mind, and calmed down slightly.
…
Ning Ji was still a little uncomfortable after walking out of Longyuan.
Although he has regained consciousness in recent years, he has not been out of here for ten years because he was unwilling to interact with others due to the erosion.
Chu Jinxiao was worried that he would be tired from the journey, so he used Yunzhou.
Stopping somewhere to rest along the way, Ning Ji took off his bamboo hat.
The world of cultivation is still the same as before, nothing seems to have changed in the past ten years.
Ning Ji's brows paused and he felt that he had really thought too much. Ten years had only passed in a blink of an eye. How could it have changed? However, because he was awakened midway, he felt it more deeply.
Ning Ji forgot that he had not worn a mask for a long time.
He now showed his true appearance under the bamboo hat. After taking off the bamboo hat, everyone in the inn suddenly took a breath.
When Chu Jinxiao came back after ordering the food, he saw those people staring at the master, and then he realized that he had not thought carefully and actually forgot about the mask.
Ning Ji was also a little surprised by the sudden gaze.
He frowned and raised his head, and the few young monks who were peeking quickly withdrew their gazes, but they had not recovered yet.
"I've never seen such a good-looking person."
Zhao Qing whispered: "Xiluzhou is so remote, how come there is such an immortal?"
Those young men were originally from famous families. They came to Xilu Continent this time to travel and build up their minds. Unexpectedly, they met Ning Ji. Just a glimpse of him shocked even the young masters who had seen the world.
This man was simply better looking than anyone he had ever seen in his life.
His eyebrows were shaved, his jawline was sharp, and he was as pale as mountain ice. That face made people's hearts tremble for no reason. It seemed as if just looking at him was blasphemous.
Their hearts were beating loudly, and they felt that they had never seen such a beautiful person before.
Even though he knew that the person's aura was unpredictable and might be much more powerful than theirs, he still couldn't help but turn around and peek again.
However, when they turned around, Ning Ji had already put on the hat again.
In more than ten years, Ning Ji has never felt such a direct gaze. After frowning slightly, his heart felt a little cold, and he put on the hat again.
Chu Jinxiao slowly lowered his eyes while holding the dish. He waited until his master put on his bamboo hat and then took a look around.
He was filled with murderous aura, as if someone here would take action if he took one more look at him.
Under the overwhelming pressure of the cultivation in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, everyone in this small inn where they had never seen a master quickly averted their eyes.
The teenagers who peeked were frightened by the momentum. If they didn't look back in time, their eyes would be injured.
To be continued...
