Chapter 137 The Seventh Sword, a somewhat lost Liu Zijin
"Liu Zijin?"
"Is this the abandoned disciple from Wufeng back then?"
In the side room of the grandstand, the master of the Sixth Peak, Leng Qingqiu, saw clearly the appearance of the woman on the sword platform, and immediately looked at the leader Zhao Qian standing aside with a look of surprise.
When Liu Zijin came on stage, not only did he not change his appearance, but he also put on the clothes he was wearing when he left Qingxuan. Therefore, all the Qingxuan Sect peak masters and elders in the stands recognized him at a glance.
The reason why it is so fresh in my memory.
In fact, the Liu Zijin sisters were harmed by Lu Chen and then went to assassinate Lu Chen. The incident was so big that it is difficult to remember.
Especially back then, Liu Zijin was expelled from Qingxuan, and Lu Chen had his head chopped off.
This matter was not completely settled until Zhou Tong, the leader of the Seven Peaks Competition, was defeated in the sword challenge.
Zhao Qian, who had just returned to the wing, sighed softly, nodded and said:
"It's him."
Dugu Qingxiao on the side said with a solemn expression:
"Actually, before the Jiangui Association started, we had already found out that the woman next to Cui Tiegu was Liu Zijin, but we didn't expect that she would be in the same group as Taiping for swordsmanship."
Meng Qingqiu, the master of the six peaks, suddenly frowned and said:
"Zijin has a grudge against Qingxuan. I'm afraid she will still choose Taiping in this sword competition."
The leader, Zhao Qian, crossed his arms over his chest and then murmured:
"Liu Zijin already has a grudge against Qingxuan, and coupled with the bewitchment of the person behind the scenes, this sword battle is inevitable unless Taiping uses the Zhige Ling."
Dugu Qingxiao nodded, then frowned and said:
"I'll wait and send another message to Taiping to see if I can get him to end this sword quest."
Six monks in a row asked the same swordsman at the same time, the voice transmission from the seriously ill Zhao Linglong, and Xu Taiping's unusual behavior of willing to die on the stage rather than admit defeat and end the competition, had already convinced him and the leader Zhao Qian on the side that
The question of sword itself was a conspiracy against Xu Taiping.
At this time, Meng Qingqiu asked Dugu Qingxiao:
"How is Liu Zijin's current cultivation level?"
Dugu Qingxiao thought about it carefully, and then said:
"According to what was described in the intelligence, Liu Zijin transformed into a pure martial artist after being driven down the mountain. It is said that his combat power is equivalent to that of You Yuntian's Valkyrie Jiang Cuicui."
Meng Qingqiu immediately frowned and said:
"Now that Taiping has fought six games in a row, Wenjian may not be able to win this one."
As she spoke, she looked at the leader Zhao Qian aside and asked:
"What are your plans next?"
Even though Meng Qingqiu didn't know as much as Zhao Qian and Dugu Qingxiao, he could still tell from the current situation that even if Xu Taiping lost, today's matter would never end so simply.
Zhao Qian snorted coldly and said:
"What else can we do? Of course we take Taiping back to Qingxuan!"
He had made up his mind that no matter how Xu Taiping lifted the bone-crushing curse, he would be brought back to Qingxuan and he would never make the same mistake as Su Chan did.
Meng Qingqiu nodded when he heard this and said:
"Well, I will now notify the peak masters to come to Taiyue Immortal Mansion together."
When Meng Qingqiu said this, his face turned cold and he said coldly:
"If Jiufu dares to stop us, we will fight all the way back to Qingxuan."
Today's Qingxuanzong is already united, let alone on the matter of saving Xu Taiping.
…
at the same time.
On Jianping.
Xu Taiping, who had been hunched over to restore his Qi, blood and true energy, slowly raised his head.
He looked at Liu Zijin's gaze and smiled without any surprise:
"Sister Zijin, long time no see."
In fact, Xu Taiping had already discovered Liu Zijin while sitting in the audience.
However, because they already knew this group of sword-asking monks in advance,
He was hit by Su Chan's branch-breaking force, so he didn't go up to say hello.
Of course, the most important reason is still unfamiliarity.
Liu Zijin curled his lips, frowned slightly, and asked:
"It's just been a long time no see?" ??
Although Xu Taiping recognized her, Xu Taiping's unwavering expression when he looked at her still made her feel inexplicably sad.
After hearing Liu Zijin's question, Xu Taiping's eyes suddenly flashed with surprise.
Then, he looked at Liu Zijin with sharp eyes and said:
"Sister Zijin, is that you?"
He had a feeling that Liu Zijin in front of him did not seem to be possessed by the soul of a demon cultivator.
Liu Zijin did not answer, but raised the corners of his mouth slightly and asked:
"Xu Taiping, can I ask you another question?"
Although Xu Taiping was very confused, he still nodded and said:
"You ask."
Liu Zijin took a deep look at Xu Taiping, and then said seriously:
"Why do you want to kill Lu Chen for me?"
Liu Zijin had always wanted to ask Xu Taiping this question ever since he saw Lu Chen's head in the box with his own eyes.
It is even said that this is one of the reasons why Liu Zijin was able to survive the most difficult period after going down the mountain.
Xu Taiping didn't expect that Liu Zijin wanted to ask him this question.
After a moment of silence, he told the truth:
"Part of the reason is that your sister Liu Qingmei, who was forced to become a ghost, killed Lu Chen. She should be able to rest in peace under the pressure of Jiuquan."
Liu Zijin asked eagerly:
"anything else?"
After Xu Taiping thought about it seriously, he continued:
"If you encounter injustice on the road and cannot cry out, it goes against the Taoist conscience."
Liu Zijin asked again with some reluctance:
"Nothing else?"
Xu Taiping shook his head and said:
"there is none left."
Hearing Xu Taiping's resolute answer, Liu Zijin's eyes suddenly showed a deep look of disappointment.
Immediately, she raised her head and exhaled a long breath, then smiled bitterly and said:
"This is how it should be, what did you expect?"
After muttering to himself like this, Liu Zijin's eyes suddenly became firm again.
At this moment, Elder Fu Yuan's urging voice suddenly came from behind——
"Liu Zijin, it's time for you to choose your opponent for Wenjian."
Not only Elder Fu Yuan, but all the monks in the surrounding stands who could not hear the conversation between the two people also spoke out to urge him.
In the midst of this commotion, Liu Zijin turned around and accused Elder Fu Yuan:
"Thank you, Elder Fu Yuan, for reminding me."
As she said that, she looked at Xu Taiping again.
However, just when everyone in the stands thought Liu Zijin was about to ask Xu Taiping for a sword, she raised her hands high and bowed deeply to Xu Taiping, and then said loudly:
"Liu Zijin, thank you so much, Taoist Priest, for your help in the past!"
Seeing this scene, the monks in the stands were stunned for a moment, and then burst into deafening exclamations.
Not only them, but even Xu Taiping didn't react for a while and was stunned.
Liu Zijin, on the other hand, completely ignored the sounds around him, looked at Xu Taiping firmly, and continued:
"How can Liu Zijin sit idly by when Taoist Master is in trouble today?"
As she said that, she cast her eyes on a middle-aged monk sitting in the audience, and then said loudly:
"Rogue cultivator, Liu Zijin, Wenjian Yunjing Dao Palace, Zhou Zaidao!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the voices of surprise and disbelief in the surrounding stands suddenly increased again.
The reason why everyone was so surprised was not only because Liu Zijin did not ask Xu Taiping for swordsmanship, but also because the person Liu Zijin was about to ask for swordsmanship was Zhou Zaidao, a disciple of Yunjing Dao Palace with the highest cultivation level and the strongest combat ability among this group of swordsmanship masters!
