Liu Xiaofei looked at this scene with confusion on his face. How could Li Xiaoyun, a master at the pinnacle of the Spiritual Spring Realm, slap this defensive shield and knock himself out?
"Maybe he is too weak."
Jiang Li replied weakly.
Just when Liu Xiaofei was about to ask again, Liu Ruyue, dressed in green clothes, appeared in his field of vision with lotus steps.
"Sister, you are finally here! Woohoo~~"
Liu Xiaofei was so moved that he rushed out and gave his sister a warm hug, but with a "bang", he got a big bump on his forehead.
"Ouch~"
Liu Xiaofei cried out in pain, and then looked at Jiang Li with a resentful look.
"Ahem, I was a little too weak and couldn't lift the energy shield formed by the Soul Bell immediately."
Jiang Li smiled awkwardly. His mental power controlled the Soul Bell and slowly removed the energy shield.
Liu Xiaofei was no longer surprised. After seeing Jiang Li in such misery, he quickly came over and helped Jiang Li up first.
"Sister, he, Jiang Li, is my good brother."
Liu Xiaofei had a bright smile on his face, smiling like a fool.
"Um."
Liu Ruyue raised her head slightly, her expression as calm as ever.
"Senior... I didn't expect that you are Xiao Fei's sister and the peak master of Qingyun Peak. It's really disrespectful. I will never forget your life-saving grace in the Monster Forest."
Jiang Li thanked her seriously. He did not expect that the beautiful senior who killed the fourth-order flame python with just a few flicks of sword energy in the monster forest turned out to be Liu Xiaofei's sister.
In this way, he finally understood what Liu Ruyue said about ending the cause and effect.
Jiang Li saved Liu Xiaofei, and Liu Ruyue saved him, so it was even.
Since Liu Ruyue can appear in the Monster Forest, it means that she has been following Liu Xiaofei and protecting him secretly.
Then his action seemed a bit unnecessary.
Fortunately, he didn't attack Liu Xiaofei that day and robbed him directly. Otherwise, he would have buried his bones in the Monster Forest by now, right?
However, if you want to take Liu Ruyue as your teacher during this trip, I'm afraid there will be many complications.
"Jiang Li, thank you for supporting Xiaofei all the way. Let's go up to the peak and have a cup of hot tea."
Liu Ruyue whispered, her tone very calm.
"Thank you, Senior Liu."
Jiang Li looked embarrassed. The so-called support was more like a joke.
"Sister...well, cough, it turns out you have known each other for a long time? How come I don't know about it at all?"
Liu Xiaofei pinched his nose, a little unbelievable.
However, Liu Ruyue had no intention of paying attention to him.
"Sister, isn't our Qingyun Peak unable to recruit disciples? Apart from your nine direct disciples including Sister Bing, Brother Tuesday, Sister Peacock, and Sister Mulan, our Qingyun Peak has no other disciples. Otherwise..."
Liu Xiaofei just wanted to introduce Jiang Li to his sister, but was interrupted by her sister's words.
"This time you went to the Monster Forest privately, you should decide how to accept the punishment."
Liu Ruyue gave Liu Xiaofei an angry look.
"sister!"
Liu Xiaofei was a little unhappy. He had obviously returned well, so why did the elder sister continue to punish him?
Seeing the topic being changed so easily, Jiang Li smiled bitterly, knowing that Liu Ruyue had no intention of recruiting him as a disciple.
In this way, if I continue to follow the two siblings to Qingyun Peak, wouldn't it seem a little ignorant?
Just when he took a step forward and was about to say goodbye, his mouth suddenly couldn't open.
When Jiang Li was confused, an angry voice sounded in his mind.
"You idiot, such an excellent master is right in front of you, why do you want to give up because you are afraid of losing face?"
"The opportunity is right in front of you, but you want to throw it away. I really don't know what you, a big fool, are thinking?"
"If you want to get ahead, don't be too assertive, be proactive and thick-skinned. She is not willing to recruit you as a disciple, so you have to stalk her and beg her to accept you as a disciple. This is the order I give you.
!”
Tianhuo's voice could be heard to be somewhat angry.
But in her heart, she was thinking about something else.
Is Qingli Taoist? Is it a coincidence of fate, or is everything planned?
Tianhuo was a little unsure, but since the opportunity was right in front of her, she would not let Jiang Li give up under any circumstances.
"yes."
Although Jiang Li felt a little conflicted, he also knew that Tianhuo was sincerely doing his best.
Therefore, the steps he took out were slowly taken back.
Liu Xiaofei glanced at Jiang Li with some confusion, not understanding what he meant. However, he was now thinking about what kind of punishment he should think of to make his sister happy.
After entering the mountain gate of Dao Zong, there are ten other barrier gates. However, for some reason, Dao Zong only has seven peaks?
Is there really no reason for the name Shitian Peak?
With doubts in mind, Jiang Li did not ask immediately. Perhaps there were other secrets hidden in this.
After stepping through the barrier gate of Qingyun Peak, Jiang Li saw an endless stone staircase and a huge lake.
The scenery around the stone staircase is picturesque.
"Xiao Fei, why does this water look so crystal clear?"
Jiang Li stared at the lake, feeling that the water was a little unusual, and suddenly asked with some confusion.
"This is heavy water. Its weight is much higher than ordinary water. It can extract a very rare weapon-refining metal. It is a treasure lake."
Liu Xiaofei explained seriously that when he saw his sister choosing to go up the stone staircase instead of riding the flying monster, he immediately called out to her.
"Sister, Brother Jiang is so seriously injured that he is not suitable for walking on the stone stairs, right? How about we take the flying monster to the top of the mountain?"
"Shut up, this is your punishment."
Liu Ruyue said coldly, obviously she was still angry.
After all, Liu Xiaofei sneaked into the Monster Forest without her consent. This was too much. If something happened, how would she explain it to her parents?
"What about Brother Jiang? Sister, you can punish me, but you have to send Brother Jiang up."
Liu Xiaofei said quickly. Obviously, he also knew that this time, he made a big mistake.
He regrets a little now. If he had known about it earlier, he would have reported it to his sister.
"He? Everyone who wants to be the disciple of Qingyun Peak must go up the ladder to heaven. If he doesn't want to, then he can leave."
Liu Ruyue's voice was indifferent and she didn't even turn her head.
Looking at the cold figure walking away, Jiang Li felt very uncomfortable.
But with Tianhuo's words, he finally made up his mind.
If you want to gain something, you must first give.
He, Jiang Li, is worthless. Why should a master like Liu Ruyue accept him?
If he can't show his value, at least he should show his attitude!
"Sister, but he was seriously injured?"
Liu Xiaofei was very puzzled, even a little angry. Jiang Li was the benefactor who saved him twice, but his sister treated Brother Jiang like this.
There was no reply, and Liu Ruyue's figure became farther and farther away.
