Leng Ji looked around and suddenly said: "Master Wan, there seems to be a letter on that candlestick."

Mu Qingwan hurried over, picked up the letter and looked at it. It was indeed Master's handwriting, and the ink was still very new. It should have been written in the past two days.

What did Master do? Why did he still leave a letter?

She tore open the envelope distractedly, and the words on it came to her eyes one by one. By the time she read it, Mu Qingwan was already in tears.

"No! Master, don't..." She shouted suddenly and ran out of the cave while crying. Xia Houlie felt anxious and quickly urged Leng Ji to follow him on his back.

Mu Qingwan ran all the way to Broken Soul Valley before stopping. She knelt on the edge of the cliff and looked down desperately. She happened to see sand and rocks flying across the entire Broken Soul Valley. The rumbling sound resounded throughout the valley, while Feng'er and Luan'er were desperately trying.

Flying up, the two huge rocks on both sides of Broken Soul Valley were quickly closing behind them...

Seeing this scene, Mu Qingwan felt that her heart was broken into pieces. She couldn't see her dearest master, but she could imagine that he was at the bottom of the cliff and would never come up again in this life.

"Master..." She shouted down with all her strength, but she only heard the dull echo in the valley, and that kind voice could no longer respond to her.

"Wan..." Xia Houlie's heart ached when he heard her crying so hard that he let Leng Ji put him down and hugged her trembling body.

"Oh..." Mu Qingwan threw herself into his arms and cried bitterly, putting the letter into his hands, "...Master is your father... He is your father... He wanted to find the final antidote for you.

, now I am pressed at the bottom of the cliff..."

Xia Houlie's whole body was shaken, and he tightened his grip on her shoulders. Even his voice was trembling: "What did you say...say it again..."

"Master said in this letter that he was Xiahou Guanglie, the former emperor of Beiyan, your father... In order to save you, his vitality was severely injured, and now he jumped down to the Broken Soul Valley to pick the last antidote for you.

Yanguo..."

She couldn't go on talking anymore. It felt like a huge stone was pressed in her throat. The pain was so painful that her heart felt like it was being stabbed by thousands of steel needles and she couldn't breathe.

After listening to her words, Xia Houlie didn't move for a long time, just dumbfounded here, until two eagle whistles were heard in his ears. Mu Qingwan turned her head and saw Feng'er and Luan'er each holding a Biyan fruit in their mouths.

flew towards them.

Feng'er and Luan'er took the two biyan fruits that were exchanged for Master's life and put them into Mu Qingwan's hands. She held them and burst into tears, "Master..."

Xia Houlie suddenly held her wrist tightly, his voice filled with unprecedented anxiety:

"Wan, didn't you say that this fruit can make my eyes and legs return to normal? Give it to me quickly. I want to go down to save my father... I want to go down to save him..."

At the end of the sentence, there was even a hint of choking in his voice, and his tall body was shaking. They were very close to the edge of the cliff, and Leng Ji was afraid that he would fall, so he quickly supported him.

Suddenly, a loud noise came. Leng Ji and Mu Qingwan looked down the cliff. Two huge rocks collided with each other with a "bang" sound. Most of the Soul-Desolate Valley was filled in, and the entire valley returned to silence, as if

The earth-shattering scene just now had never happened before.

Hearing the huge impact in his ears, Xia Houlie felt as if his whole body was about to be torn apart. His eardrums hurt, and even his temples began to jump. He rushed to the edge of the cliff and roared loudly.

Voice:

"Father...Father...no..."

Mu Qingwan hurried forward and hugged him, crying so hard that her voice became hoarse, "Hey, Master is gone and can never be saved again..."

Like a whimpering little animal, Xia Houlie turned around and hugged her tightly, so hard that he almost crushed her shoulders. But at this moment, what hurt more was her heart, for her master, for herself, and even more for her.

Xia Houlie.

He was sent to Xichu since he was a child and did not enjoy much father's love. It was such an ecstatic thing to know that his father, who was originally thought to be dead, was still alive. However, the father and son had to face such a situation before they could meet each other.

A thrilling farewell.

I'm afraid no one will be able to let it go.

I don't know how long it took, but the entire Soul-Dead Valley fell into a deathly silence, with only intermittent sobbing and the mournful cries of Feng'er and Luan'er mourning the loss of their master.

Mu Qingwan wiped away her tears, picked up the biyan fruits in her arms, and solemnly placed them in Xia Houlie's palm.

He felt as if his heart had been scalded by hot oil as these two precious fruits were exchanged for his father's life.

If he had known this, he would rather have been disabled for the rest of his life than his father would sacrifice his own life in exchange for his health.

Leng Ji also wiped away her tears and spoke hoarsely:

"Master, eat quickly. The late emperor has a spirit in heaven. Only when he sees you healthy and safe can he smile."

"Yes, hey, Master must have reunited with his wife in heaven. He finally fulfilled his wish and stayed with his wife forever..."

Xia Houlie nodded with tears in his eyes, ate two Bi Yan Guo, and slowly waited for the effect of the medicine to take effect. He squeezed Mu Qingwan's hand tightly and asked, "What's your wife's name?"

Mu Qingwan shook her head, "I don't know either. Master's wife had already passed away when I came here, and Master never mentioned it. However, every year on the seventh day of July, Master would come to the Broken Soul Valley to pay homage to Master. Once

I followed naughtily and secretly, and saw Master sitting here blankly chatting with his wife, telling her every detail of his life, and playing the piano to her, as if his wife was still alive... By the way, Master is still here.

There is a monument carved on the side..."

She supported Xia Houlie and walked over. Just as she was about to say what words were engraved on it, Xia Houlie had already read it out:

"The sea will dry up and the stone will rot, and we will never change ."

Mu Qingwan stared at him in disbelief, "Hey, can your eyes see?"

Xia Houlie nodded and couldn't help but shed tears when he looked at the eight powerful characters on the stone tablet, "The seventh day of July is the birthday of my mother and concubine. She will never change . These eight characters are inlaid with the name of my mother and concubine.

They are really mother-in-law... I didn’t expect that they really didn’t die, but lived in seclusion here..."

"Awful..."

Mu Qingwan was also deeply shocked by the love between Xiahou Guanglie and Lu Haiyu. She was speechless for a moment and could only stare blankly at the stone tablet in front of her like Xiahou Lie.

There was solemnity in the Broken Soul Valley until Feng'er suddenly let out a loud whistle, then flew to Mu Qingwan's shoulder and pecked her, then took Luan'er to spread her wings and fly out of the Broken Soul Valley.

Mu Qingwan's expression changed, "No, someone has broken into Piaomiao Peak!"

"Then let's go and have a look." Xia Houlie said and was about to follow Feng'er and Luan'er, but after taking just one step, he covered his knees. Mu Qingwan hurriedly supported him:

"What's wrong?"

Xia Houlie waved his hand, "It must be that the effect of the medicine has not been fully exerted, and I am still a little sore when I walk."

Mu Qingwan said: "It's not safe here. Leng Ji, you help Lie back to Zhuju first, and I'll follow Feng'er and the others to take a look."

Xia Houlie frowned, "How can I rest assured if you go alone?"

"It's okay. Maybe they're just money-grubbers who came up the mountain to steal treasures. I'm just going to have a look and won't do anything with them. What's more, Master has also set up poisonous miasma and the Five Elements Formation. It shouldn't be so easy for ordinary people to enter here...

…”

He nodded and said warmly:

"Okay then, you go and come back quickly. If someone is really maliciously intruding, the three of us will come back and figure out a solution together."

Mu Qingwan responded and left, using Qing Kung Fu to fly in the forest for a while. She only heard the sound of footsteps, but could not see a single figure.

She summoned Feng'er, sat on its back and flew to high places. She quickly crossed the poisonous miasma area. The closer she got, the louder the voices of those people became. She could even hear their conversations.

A somewhat familiar voice sounded not far away:

"Your Majesty, I have ordered the soldiers to wait here. As long as you give the order, they can attack at any time..."

"The soldiers are tired after walking for so long. Let's rest where we are and then attack again tomorrow. Anyway, they are already the turtles in the urn."

"I obey the decree!"

At this moment, Feng'er had already flown over the big tree blocking the view. Mu Qingwan looked down and saw that if the two men walking in the front were not Helian Hengzhi and Cheng Zhao, who were they?

She didn't expect that despite trying every possible means to disguise herself, she still couldn't escape Helian Hengzhi's search.

She patted Feng'er on the back, and quickly and quietly left before those people noticed.

When they returned to Zhuju, Xia Houlie and Leng Ji were waiting anxiously outside. Seeing that she came back safely, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Xia Houlie saw that her face was a little pale, so he went up to her and hugged her: "How is it? Who are they?"

Mu Qingwan walked towards the house and said:

"He Lianhengzhi led his troops to attack."

Xia Houlie and Leng Ji exclaimed in unison, "What?"

"I have to quickly find the note that Master left for me, otherwise the existing Five Elements Formation and poisonous miasma will not be able to stop Helian Hengzhi..."

The three of them walked to the study room together. There was an entire wall filled with all kinds of bamboo slips and books. Mu Qingwan found a very old book and sat down in front of the desk, slowly opening it. It was full of all kinds of books.

Five elements and eight trigrams array.

Xia Houlie sat down next to her, stared at the book for a while, and then said:

"Since it was left by my father, Helian Hengzhi is also his disciple, so he should be familiar with it..."

Mu Qingwan pointed to a few pages and said:

"These are some formations that Master only created after Helian Hengzhi left, so he probably doesn't know about them. But the trouble now is that I'm not very familiar with these formations, so I have to study them first before I can set them up.

Otherwise we will be trapped here ourselves when the time comes.”

For dinner, the three of them only ate a few purple poria cocos, stayed up all night reading, and exchanged opinions from time to time. However, at daybreak, there was still one step that they had not solved.

At this time, Feng'er and Luan'er, who were sent out by Mu Qingwan to find out the news, had flown back, howling desperately.
