Xie Jianfeng hummed: "Senior Brother Mo, I can't see, maybe he is bluffing!"

Mo Jiye said angrily: "Yes, I saw it wrong, but you saw it correctly, so do you think you can beat him?...Can you beat Junior Sister Liu?"

Xie Jianfeng blushed and said uncomfortably: "Junior sister Liu is a genius, I can't compare to her."

Mo Jiye snorted: "Junior sister Liu admits that she is not as good as him, why are you so stubborn!"

Xie Jianfeng said angrily: "Maybe Junior Sister Liu is trying to put money on his face!"

"Okay, okay, you're asking for trouble and I won't stop you!" Mo Jiye waved his hand impatiently.

Cui Shaoqing said: "Thank you, junior brother, you are obsessed with sex, wake up!"

Xie Jianfeng glared at him: "Senior Brother Cui, you are also facing outsiders!"

"I'm afraid that you will humiliate yourself." Cui Shaoqing shook his head and said, "Okay, thank you, junior brother, and be honest, otherwise you will offend junior sister Liu, which will be enough for you!"

Xie Jianfeng snorted: "What can Junior Sister Liu do to me?"

"As long as Junior Sister Liu says a few bad words about you, everyone will eat you up!" Cui Shaoqing shook his head.

Xie Jianfeng looked angry and stopped talking.

Mo Jiye breathed a sigh of relief and said: "There is no fragrant grass anywhere in the world. Although Junior Sister Liu is good, you will not be able to bear it, otherwise the senior fellow apprentices will eat you up!"

Xie Jianfeng sighed helplessly, shook his head and said, "I don't accept it!"

Mo Jiye patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Okay, thank you, junior brother. I have become the best in the world. I am still worried that no woman will like me. Now I have to work hard to get this thing done. Do you want to go to the Cold Wind Cave?"

Xie Jianfeng's expression changed slightly and he nodded solemnly: "Senior Brother Mo, I understand!"

"That's good!" Mo Jiye finally felt relieved. At this time, Li Muchan and Liu Biyun came out of the woods, and Liu Biyun blushed when they saw them.

Liu Biyun has been in a dilemma and does not want them to be in danger. However, the four heroes appeared at the same time. Linhai Pavilion really did not dare to take action, otherwise the Longshan Sect would retaliate and cause a war between the two factions.

Longshan Sect and Linhai Pavilion are fighting secretly. They plot against each other, but there is an invisible unspoken rule, which is not to go too far. Because neither faction wants to really fight. Once this happens, the two factions are in danger of life and death.

The other sects are all watching, not to mention there is the Ten Thousand Saints Sect, so they have some control over their secret fights. If they encounter one or two, there is no harm in killing them, or three or four. But like Liu Biyun and the others this time. Longshan Sect.

With the four heroes gathered together, Linhai Pavilion would not dare to kill.

Even so, Liu Biyun was still uneasy. They did not dare to kill all the four heroes. Killing one or two without hesitation was actually still a dangerous situation. If Li Muchan was not there, she would not take the risk anyway.

Liu Biyun is smart, but a woman who falls in love is not much smarter either. When Li Muchan said this, she believed it.

Mo Jiye smiled and said: "Junior sister, we have to hurry up, otherwise we won't be able to catch up with Huang!"

Liu Biyun hesitated, glanced at Li Muchan, and nodded slowly.

******************************************

Li Muchan and Liu Biyun stood side by side on a poplar tree. The poplar tree was straight and tall, with dense leaves, covering the five people's figures.

This poplar tree is located next to a path at the foot of the mountain, surrounded by dense forests, with poplars, pines, cypresses and other trees standing in a mess, forming this lush forest.

There is a small road in the middle of the woods, leading to the top of the mountain. They chose this place to intercept Huang Zongqi. It is not close to Linhai Pavilion and is a must-pass, so it is the best interception point.

Liu Biyun said softly: "Brother Li, Huang Zongqi really didn't come here?"

Li Muchan frowned and stared into the distance, then nodded slightly: "Yeah."

Xie Jianfeng was also standing on the same poplar tree, on another branch, to their left. He turned and looked over: "Brother Li, are the secrets of arithmetic passed down in your family accurate?"

Li Muchan smiled: "I can conclude that he did not come over."

"No, it's been two hours." Mo Jiye and Cui Shaoqing stood on a branch on the right, stroking their chins and saying with some doubts: "We have worked hard to suck milk, and he won't dawdle. He has Qinggong."

Not bad, I should have come here long ago."

Li Muchan smiled and said: "Perhaps he was deliberately raising suspicions, or deliberately left calmly. Apart from me, only the Dark Swords know that he has a secret, and he is not afraid of leaking it."

"It's very possible." Mo Jiye nodded.

Xie Jianfeng snorted: "Since you know, how can he not be afraid of leaking it?"

Li Muchan said: "I still have some friendship with him."

"Friendship?" Xie Jianfeng frowned and said, "What kind of friendship do you have with him?"

"Thank you, senior brother!" Liu Biyun said angrily.

Xie Jianfeng calmed down his momentum and said helplessly: "I just don't think it's reliable. Junior sister, you also know how miserable it will be if we can't get the secret book back!"

Liu Biyun said: "I believe in Brother Li!"

"Okay, okay, I didn't say anything!" Xie Jianfeng waved his hand helplessly.

Liu Biyun turned around and said: "Brother Li, Senior Brother Xie is outspoken, don't be offended."

Li Muchan shook his head and frowned, looking into the distance, thoughtfully.

"Brother Li...?" Liu Biyun called softly.

Li Muchan said "hmm" and suddenly woke up as if he was startled. He turned around to look over and said with a smile: "It's nothing, I would be dubious...the cold wind cave sounds scary."

"It doesn't matter." Liu Biyun smiled.

Xie Jianfeng felt extremely uncomfortable when he saw Liu Biyun smiling like this at Li Muchan. He snorted, and in exchange for Liu Biyun's angry glare, he had no choice but to turn his head angrily and look out of sight.

Li Muchan's left thumb wandered around the remaining four knuckles faster and faster, his brows furrowed more and more tightly, and his thumb finally landed on the third joint of his little finger, with a serious expression on his face.

"Brother Li, what's wrong?" Mo Jiye asked carefully.

Li Muchan raised his head and looked into the distance, sighing: "There are changes."

"Variable?" Mo Jiye asked hurriedly: "Did Huang Zongqi change his route?"

Li Muchan shook his head: "Huang Zongqi is gone."

"Gone?" Mo Jiye was startled and said hesitantly: "But he's dead?"

Li Muchan nodded: "Well, he's dead."

"How is this possible?!" Xie Jianfeng snorted: "He is protected by ten dark swords, who can kill him?!"

Li Muchan lowered his head and looked at his left palm, shook his head and sighed: "Judging from the hexagram, he is already dead!... Let's go back!"

"Pretending to be a ghost!" Xie Jianfeng sneered.

"Thank you, senior brother!" Liu Biyun frowned and looked at him.

Xie Jianfeng said loudly: "We shouldn't have believed him in the first place, which put us in a dilemma. Senior Brother Mo and Senior Brother Cui, why did you just..."

Mo Jiye grimaced and shouted: "Thank you, junior brother!"

Cui Shaoqing shook his head: "Thank you, junior brother. Stay calm, the Cold Wind Cave is not that scary!"

Xie Jianfeng took a deep breath and let it out slowly. He nodded and said, "Senior Brother Mo, I made a mistake."

Li Muchan frowned and looked at him, then glanced at Liu Biyun. Liu Biyun clasped his hands together, showing a begging look, signaling not to follow him.

Li Muchan smiled bitterly and shook his head, pretending not to see Xie Jianfeng, and said warmly: "Brother Mo, let's leave quickly. If we delay any longer, it will be too late!"

"Okay!" Mo Jiye nodded: "Just follow Brother Li's arrangements, let's go!"

Once he believed in Li Muchan, he would not change easily. This made Li Muchan quite impressed. His behavior seemed to make people feel unsure. It was not easy for Mo Jiye to insist on believing in himself. Most people could not be so decisive and persistent, no wonder he could become

leader.

Li Muchan floated down from the tree, and the others floated down like four fallen leaves. Then they went south along the path, turning into five pieces of light smoke and moving quickly, faster than a galloping horse.

After running for an hour, Li Muchan suddenly waved his hand and stopped abruptly. The other four people stopped and turned to look back at him.

Liu Biyun floated to Li Muchan: "Brother Li, what's wrong?"

Li Muchan pointed with his left hand towards the woods nearby: "Inside."

This is also a trail, with lush woods on both sides. It is very similar to the place where they ambush before, except that there are no mountains, the terrain is flat, and the woods can't be seen to the end.

Mo Jiye said: "Let's go!"

Li Muchan floated into the woods. The woods were dense and there was insufficient light. Moss covered the roots of the trees, and below were thick leaves and dead branches.

They stepped on the thick leaves and moved forward, higher or lower, avoiding the diagonally blocked leaves. Li Muchan suddenly stopped again.

Mo Jiye and four others followed and came to Li Muchan's side. Liu Biyun said: "Someone has moved here!"

Li Muchan stretched out his hand and broke off a pine branch, which was about the length of his arm and the thickness of his thumb. He shook it lightly and turned it into a shadow. Then he squatted down and the pine branch hit the ground with a "bang".

"Bang!" The leaves exploded and shot out in all directions, forming a circular open space. In the bare open space, a person was lying.

Liu Biyun and the others hurriedly approached, and Mo Jiye said in a deep voice: "Huang Zongqi!"

*************************************************

Li Muchan walked over, lowered his head and took a look, bent down to smell his breath, stood up and shook his head at everyone and sighed: "It's a pity that I came a step too late!"

"How long has he been dead?" Xie Jianfeng knelt down and touched it. Huang Zongqi had died, with a look of ferocious reluctance on his blue face.

Xie Jianfeng reached out and touched Huang Zongqi's clothes, and finally stopped in disappointment. He took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and wiped his hands, then threw it aside with a look of unhappiness on his face.

Mo Jiye asked: "How long have you been dead?"

Xie Jianfeng frowned and said, "Maybe less than an hour."
