Outside the Shoujing Hall, the disciples of Dazhu Peak, starting from Song Daren to Du Bishu, stood in a line outside the door, with anxious and worried expressions on their faces, looking into the Shoujing Hall from time to time.
After a while, the sound of footsteps came to mind in the Shou Jing Hall, and a woman walked out. It was Wenmin from Xiaozhu Peak. Song Daren and other Dazhu Peak disciples immediately surrounded her. Song Daren was familiar with Wenmin and looked at the empty space behind Wenmin.
One person asked in a low voice: "How is my wife?"
Wenmin nodded and said softly: "Uncle Su is fine now. She suddenly fainted when she returned to the mountain. My master said it was because she was too worried. Now my master is with her inside and she has woken up.
coming"
Song Daren and others all breathed a sigh of relief, but no one looked happy. Du Bishu said with a bitter face: "This is really a bolt from the blue. There is no news about the master. Now even the master's wife is almost in trouble."
"Shut up." Song Daren frowned and drank. Du Bishu smiled bitterly and shook his head. Song Daren turned to Wen Min and said, "Did my wife ask you to give us any instructions?"
Wen Min shook his head and said: "No, Master Su just whispered to my master. After saying a few words, master asked me to come out. It seemed that there was something he didn't want me to know."
Song Daren frowned and said: "This and this"
Seeing that he was anxious, Wen Min felt a little unbearable and advised: "Senior Brother Song, don't be too anxious. Anyway, it's such a big deal. Uncle Su and my master are still here. Something has happened now. Uncle Su is watching.
I am exhausted both physically and mentally, so you have to bear the burden here more."
Song Daren sighed, nodded and said: "You are right." After pondering for a moment, he turned to the other junior brothers and said: "Okay, okay, now that we know that our junior wife is safe, I say we don't have to stand here all the time.
Otherwise, if Master Mistress finds out, it will cause trouble for her. Everyone, please go back to your room first. You still have to do your homework, so I will keep it here for now."
Wu Dayi, He Dazhi, Du Bishu and others looked at each other. After a moment of silence, Wu Dayi, the second oldest, nodded and said: "That's good, let's listen to senior brother." After that, he turned to Song Daren again
, said: "Senior Brother, I will come over for you later."
Just when Song Daren was about to shake his head and refuse, He Dazhi patted him on the shoulder and said: "Senior Brother, please tell us to have a good rest. Don't be careless and take it seriously. My wife won't like you either."
Song Daren smiled bitterly and nodded. Then everyone gradually dispersed. Only Song Daren and Wen Min stood outside the Shoujing Hall, speechless for a moment.
The two of them looked at each other. Wen Min suddenly blushed and slowly lowered his head. Song Daren coughed, but felt that his heartbeat was a little faster. He quickly calmed down, laughed twice and said: "Wen Min
Junior sister, didn’t you just go to Southern Xinjiang with Lu Xueqi from Xiaozhu Peak not long ago, why did you come back so soon?”
Wen Min shook his head and said: "I went to Southern Xinjiang, and I didn't plan to rush back so early, but something strange happened there. After discussing with Junior Sister Lu, I felt that this matter was not trivial, so I rushed back first to report to Master.
Along with all the elders, Junior Sister Lu is still staying in Southern Xinjiang and will act according to the opportunity."
Song Daren was startled and said: "What is so important?"
Wenmin hesitated for a moment, glanced around, then approached Song Daren and whispered a few words in his ear. Before she could finish speaking, Song Daren's expression had already changed a little, and when Wenmin came one by one,
, then left his side, stood in front of him, looked at him, sighed lowly, and said: "Now you know why I rushed back."
Song Daren's face was filled with uncertainty. After a long while, he said something in a daze, "This is such an eventful time."
Wen Min was silent for a long time and said in a low voice: "Who says it's not the case? I also feel that it is really a wave of ups and downs, and after I came back, something like this happened in our sect again, ugh."
She sighed and said no more. Song Daren stood with her. Suddenly he felt that the woman next to him was thin and looked a little more fragile. He couldn't help but stand closer slowly.
Wen Min was lowering his head in deep thought. He didn't seem to feel anything, but the corner of his mouth moved slightly, but he didn't speak. He just stood so quietly.
The two figures stood so quietly outside the Dazhu Peak Shoujing Hall.
In the distance, there are waves of bamboo waves at Dazhu Peak, and the warm sunshine is shining down. In the blue sky, it is a beautiful scene with clear sky and cloudless sky. Watching this world gently

In the backyard of Shoujing Hall, in a secluded bedroom, two women sit opposite each other
Master Shuiyue was silent for a long time and said: "Junior sister, why don't you go to bed and lie down for a while?"
Suru slowly shook her head. Although she looked tired, she still said in a firm and low tone: "I won't go. Even if I go and lie down, I won't be able to sleep."
Master Shuiyue sighed and said: "Junior sister, don't worry too much. Just like what I said to you just now, no matter what, Tian Buyi disappeared at the same time as the head brother. You didn't really see him.
If you encounter any accident, stop thinking about it. Although Senior Brother Daoxuan has been a little inappropriate recently, his level of magical power is far higher than ours, and so is his concentration. Tian Buyi has been his junior brother for many years, and he categorically
No messing around”
Suru was silent, but her eyes were slightly red again.
Master Shuiyue shook his head, stood up, and walked a few steps back and forth in the room. He was obviously a little upset. Even the ordinary disciples could see the current mess in Qingyun Sect, let alone the elders who knew some of the inside story.
Character
Suruqiang smiled, changed the topic, and said: "Senior sister, why did you suddenly arrive at Tongtian Peak today?"
Master Shuiyue said angrily: "It's not all because of the trouble with Yi Lan in Fenxiang Valley. I originally wanted to go to the head brother to discuss it, but I didn't expect that such a big thing happened again. In the end, even the whole sect was in trouble."
The Lord has actually disappeared."
Suru frowned and said: "Yun Yilan, the owner of Fenxiang Valley? What else does he have to do that affects our Qingyun?"
Master Shuiyue sneered and said, "My disciples Lu Xueqi and Wenmin went to southern Xinjiang to track down the whereabouts of the beast monster. Do you know that?"
Suru nodded and said: "I know, I was just wondering why Wen Min came back so quickly. Is that Lu Xueqi who is following you also back?"
Master Shuiyue shook his head and said: "Xue Qi has not come back yet. This time, after the two of them discussed it, Wen Min went back to the mountain first to report to me."
Suru said: "What happened?"
Master Shuiyue said: "When they went to visit Yun Yilan in southern Xinjiang, Yun Yilan suddenly asked them whether our Qingyun Sect's ancient sword of killing immortals had been damaged."
Suru's face changed drastically and she said in shock: "What?"
Master Shuiyue sneered and said: "You are surprised. I was really shocked when I heard it at the time. How could Yun Yilan know such a huge secret when he was thousands of miles away? That day, Brother Daoxuan sent several of us...
The disciples present at the gate warned me as if they were on guard against thieves, just for fear that this matter would be leaked, do you still remember?"
Suru was silent for a long time, and the worry in his eyes became heavier again, and he sighed: "This is really a bad thing that has spread thousands of miles."
Master Shuiyue paced back and forth and said, "And have you ever thought about why Yun Yilan said such things to those juniors?"
Suru nodded slowly and said: "I am also thinking about this matter. If it is for the sake of being righteous, he should not mention it in public, but should hide it for us; if not, he is
He has ulterior motives, but he should keep them hidden. Watching the right moment is what a person like him should do."
"That's right." Master Shuiyue snorted and said, "That's the problem. Yun Yilan seems to have done something stupid that only a fool would do. It doesn't please both sides, but we are all
We know that this person is not a fool, but a cunning person, but what he wants to do is really confusing."
Suru thought for a long time, but suddenly reached out and rubbed her forehead, with a look of pain on her face. Master Shuiyue was startled, and quickly came over to support her, reproaching herself: "Look at me, you are already upset enough.
Okay, I’m still telling you this, okay, I won’t say it anymore, I won’t say it anymore.”
Suru smiled bitterly and said: "Well, if in the past, the head brother was in charge of the overall situation, we wouldn't be afraid of these things at all. But now the Qingyun Sect is in chaos first, and the situation outside is extremely chaotic. I don't know
How many foreign enemies are looking at me, I really don’t know what to do.”
Master Shuiyue frowned, and then said softly: "Junior sister, stop talking. Look how tired you are. Didn't I tell you? Although the head senior brother has been a bit weird these days and different from the past, he
If we practice Taoism, practice spirituality, and have a firm mind, we don’t have to be afraid of anything.”
Suru shook her head and said casually: "Senior sister, you don't understand. Although the master's practice is very strong, the ferocious aura of the ancient sword of Zhuxian becomes stronger when it is thwarted. Although his practice is high, he is still afraid of being possessed by a demon.
"Deep"
Master Shuiyue was startled and said, "What did you say?"
Suru was startled, and then she realized that she had spilled the beans, and just as she was about to cover it up, Master Shuiyue frowned deeply, walked up to her, and said solemnly: "Junior sister, what secrets does the Ancient Sword of Killing Immortals have?
You actually know it, tell me now."
Suru was silent for a long time, sighed, and said: "That's all, now, sooner or later, I can't hide it anymore. Senior sister, I'll tell you right now. In fact, this all happened more than a hundred years ago."

The Hundred Thousand Mountains in Southern Xinjiang, Deep in the Ancient Zhenmo Cave
After meeting again after a long absence, both Xiaobai and Gui Li felt like they didn't know what to say after their initial words. Only Xiao Hui, the monkey lying on Gui Li's shoulder, seemed very happy to see Xiao Bai and kept grinning.
Gui Li was suddenly startled and seemed to remember something. He turned his head and looked at the way he came, but there was only darkness. He couldn't help but frowned and said to Xiao Bai: "The woman who came with me, what did you do to her?
"
Xiaobai snorted and said calmly: "What can I do to her? You really have a lot to worry about."
Gui Li was silent for a moment and shook his head. He didn't want to dwell on this issue anymore and said immediately: "By the way, why are you here? After you left that day, I never heard from you. This time I'm here.
I also secretly inquired about Southern Xinjiang, but I couldn’t find you.”
Xiaobai smiled, and his figure seemed to be swaying gently in the cyan light. During the shaking, he was full of moving charm, and said: "Didn't I tell you when I left, I want to find the 'Eight Ominous Mysterious Fire Technique'"
"Jin' is for you"
Gui Li said: "I remember, so I also went to the Xuanhuo Altar in Fenxiang Valley, but I didn't find anything. By the way, you haven't said what you did in this ancient cave of suppressing demons?"
Xiaobai shrugged his shoulders and said: "I came here naturally for the magic circle, and also to see an old friend."
Gui Li looked at her, pondered for a moment, and said, "Did you mean here?"
Xiao Bai nodded and said: "Yes, after the magic circle at the Xuanhuo Altar in Fenxiang Valley was destroyed, the only intact Eight Evils Xuanhuo magic circle in this ancient cave of suppressing demons was left in the world. In addition, my old friend also happened to be there.
Here it is”
Gui Li's expression changed, and he said slowly: "Is that the old friend you mentioned?"
Xiaobai smiled slightly and said: "This is the king of beasts and monsters you call, the god of beasts."
Although Gui Li had somewhat thought of it, he was still stunned for a moment when he heard Xiao Bai say it himself. He didn't know what to say for a moment.
After a long while, Gui Li slowly said: "How come you have friendship with him?"
Xiaobai looked at him, still with a soft smile on his face, but his eyes were as clear as water, but seemed to be a bit sarcastic, and said: "Don't you know, I am an old goblin. As I get older,
Naturally, I know a lot of things and know a lot of monsters.”
Ghost Li was silent. Xiaobai glanced at him and said, "What about you? What are you doing here? Just now you said that the Ghost King ordered that woman to bring you here. What the hell does he want to do?"
Gui Li shook his head and said: "The Ghost King Sect Leader asked me to come here not to hunt down the beast god."
Xiaobai was startled and said: "If you don't want to kill him, then why do you have to come here thousands of miles away?"
Gui Li said: "He asked me to tame a strange beast Taotie next to the Beast God and bring it back to him."
"Taotie?"
Xiaobai was startled again, frowned and thought for a moment, and said to himself: "It's strange, when did he become interested in Taotie?"
Gui Li said calmly: "I don't know about that. Anyway, that's what he ordered, so I'll just follow it."
Xiaobai snorted and said: "That Taotie is a spiritual beast that never leaves the Beast God. If you want to take it, you must pass the Beast God's test. Are you sure you can defeat the Beast God? Or do you?
Do you also think that after he was injured, he wanted to add insult to injury?"
Gui Li looked at Xiao Bai without saying a word. After a moment, he suddenly smiled, then took a step forward, walked past Xiao Bai, and walked towards the darkness deep in the cave.
Xiaobai's complexion changed slightly, and he followed him and said, "What do you mean?"
Xiao Hui, who was lying on Gui Li's shoulder, saw Xiao Bai next to him. He jumped off Gui Li's shoulder with a "hoo" and landed on Xiao Bai. Xiao Bai caught the monkey, hugged it to his chest, and touched it.
After touching its head, he couldn't help but feel a bit of kindness in his eyes, and then turned to look at Gui Li again.
Gui Li said slowly: "You know, whatever the sect master asks me to do, as long as it's not too much, I will do it for him."
Xiaobai snorted and said: "Have you ever thought that if you do this yourself, you may feel better, but the things you have done over the years may not necessarily be what Baguio likes you to do.
"
Gui Li's footsteps suddenly stopped, and his whole body seemed to have stopped for a moment. Xiao Bai frowned and stopped, but did not look at Gui Li. Instead, he lowered his head and slowly looked at the monkey Xiao Hui, and gently stroked its
The hairy little gray one blinked his three eyes, as if he was a little confused. He looked at Xiaobai for a while, and then looked at the owner again.
Gui Li was silent for a while, then whispered: "Since you know that doing this will make me feel a little better, why do you still say this?"
Xiaobai sighed and said nothing
Gui Li's figure suddenly seemed a little lonely, but he stood in the faint green light, but did not look back, as if he had long been used to it and never looked back. He was silent for a long time, and finally said: "
I have never done anything outrageous or harmful.”
After that, he didn't say another word and continued to walk forward. Looking at the figure, Xiao Bai also fell silent. After a while, she looked at Xiao Hui in her arms, but only saw the monkey's three eyes looking at him.
Keep yourself
Xiaobai smiled bitterly and said: "Your master, it's really strange that he hasn't gone crazy in these ten years."
※※※
The two figures walked for a long time in the depths of the Ancient Demon-Suppressing Cave. Gui Li was not in a hurry, but Xiao Bai seemed to have a lot of thoughts on his mind. He neither stopped Gui Li from looking for the Beast God nor gave him any directions on the road.
Walking behind him, thoughtfully
Suddenly, Gui Li stopped. In front of him, in the darkness ahead, a faint green light suddenly lit up, flickering non-stop, shining several feet above the ground.
There was silence all around. Not to mention breathing, there was no smell of those ferocious demonic beasts at all. At this time, Xiao Bai, who was walking behind him, sighed and said: "Here we are, under the green light in front is a door.
, after passing the door there is a large stone room, and the people and spiritual beasts you are looking for are all inside."
Gui Li didn't say anything, but Xiao Hui looked at Xiao Bai's face, suddenly jumped up, and jumped back to Gui Li's shoulder a few times, then turned back and grinned at Xiao Bai, and touched his head.
Xiaobai smiled slightly at Xiaohui, and then said to Guili: "Listen to me, I have a very close relationship with the Beast God, so you want me to help you deal with him. I'm afraid it won't work because of his magical powers. I
Although you have never fought against him, you should know more or less. Although he was severely injured by the Zhuxian Sword, he is not something that ordinary cultivators can deal with. So," she looked at him and said slowly, "Really
, it’s not too late for you to let go now.”
Gui Li was silent for a moment, but he slowly shook his head towards Xiao Bai, then took a deep breath, calmed down, and walked towards the green light. Looking at his figure, Xiao Bai did not continue to follow.
Going up, there was a hint of resentment and tenderness in his eyes.
Suddenly, she raised her voice slightly towards Gui Li and said, "Do you still have that Xuanhuo Jian on you?"
Gui Li was startled for a moment, stopped, turned around and said, "Yes, what's wrong?"
There seemed to be some helplessness on Xiao Bai's face, and he slowly shook his head and said: "You remember: first, the beast god can be defeated; second, in a critical moment, you can try using the Xuanhuojian."
Gui Li nodded. Although he was still a little confused, he didn't want to ask any more questions. He said, "Thank you very much." After that, he continued to turn around and merged into the darkness. From a distance, the monkey Xiao Hui "squeaked"
"A few soft calls
Xiaobai looked at the darkness and stood there silently, as if he was stunned or waiting for something silently.
※※※
Under the green light, there is indeed a stone door, but the door has long since disappeared. Only the green light that can be seen clearly at this moment turns out to be a huge green gem, which is inlaid on the rock wall of the stone door.
Gui Li did not pause and walked in. His eyes suddenly lit up. A burning brazier was placed alone on the ground in the distance. Around the fire of the brazier, there was darkness again. It was unclear how big this stone chamber was, but
Behind the fire, he really saw a man, a man in bright silk clothes, sitting on the ground with his back leaning on a small stone platform, looking at him with a smile.
The face of that man was once familiar to him, and beside that man, the evil beast Taotie slowly stood up and roared in a low voice full of hostility.
The man who looked somewhat coquettish had a tired look on his face, but there still seemed to be a faint smile in his eyes. He smiled at Gui Li who was standing at the door and said:
