The four iron wolves looked in the direction of the scream and immediately spotted the female Taoist.
"White Jade Crown, he carries a sword but doesn't use it. He just uses his hands to fight the enemy. This is the symbol of White Jade Crown! There are also pink petal marks on the face... They are definitely those crazy people!"
Tie Lang's expression was solemn, and he already had the intention of retreating.
If the Ancient Sword Sect is a wild dog, then the female Taoist with the white jade crown is a real tiger.
The two are not a series at all.
Even their adoptive father Zhou Dashanren would not dare to provoke him easily.
"Withdraw!" Tie Lang said coldly.
"But big brother, Chongxing Cup!" the companion on the side said anxiously.
Iron Wolf fell silent and looked around.
"Is she the only one?" His heart moved slightly.
After Gao Ling died, the people of the Ancient Sword Sect also stopped one after another and looked at the female Taoist with the white jade crown, with a hint of evil intent in her eyes.
The rules within the Ancient Sword Sect are strict. If they go back like this, they may be sent to the execution hall to have their tongues and limbs cut off, which is worse than death.
It is precisely because the ancient sword sect's martial arts is mainly about stabbing, which is simple and direct, so it can be cultivated very quickly.
Therefore, there is no shortage of manpower in the faction, especially men with first and second blood.
"He is alone! Kill her!!"
I don't know who was the first to yell.
The crowd was in commotion.
Gao Xiu couldn't help but grieve, his brother was killed, and he was already emotionally broken.
"kill!!"
He suddenly roared and took the lead in charging towards the female Taoist.
Poof!
Suddenly a bit of cold light appeared.
His body suddenly fell in front of the female Taoist, and a petal-shaped wound appeared on his chest and heart.
The wound penetrated the heart and came out from behind. It was simple, direct and fatal.
The people around her didn't even see clearly how she acted.
"The White Jade Crown of Fucheng...is indeed well-deserved..." Tie Lang's eyes tightened. He was the only one in the field who was the fastest and had the highest level of cultivation, so he was the only one who could clearly see the speed of the female Taoist's attack.
The female Taoist first raised her hand to point out, and then used her other hand to push her elbow behind her.
With the force of both hands, Gao Xiu's protective power was instantly broken, the skin, flesh and bones were broken, and the heart was penetrated, ending the battle.
From beginning to end, Gao Xiu didn't even see clearly how he died.
It's all because the opponent is too fast.
"Retreat!" Tie Lang said nothing, quickly retreated and left with his men.
This matter is no longer something they can handle, and they must go back and apply for support.
The people of the Ancient Sword Sect were now a little panicked as they lost their leader. They retreated quietly one by one, not daring to move forward.
The female Taoist was not surprised, she just turned around, returned to Gao Ling's corpse, groped around on it, and took out a small box wrapped in black silk that was well wrapped.
Opening the box with a click, there was a delicate green jade cup the size of a human eye quietly placed inside.
There are a large number of characters carved on the wall around the jade cup, which seem to be characters from the previous dynasties, forming a complete poem.
The cup holder has carved patterns of circling exotic animals. Among them are snakes, dragons, cows and sheep.
"Sure enough, the cup is right here, kill!!" In the dark corner behind, figures jumped out one after another, forming a square formation, surrounding the female Taoist.
"Kill!!" These people were clearly strong men dressed as coolies.
The female Taoist's expression remained unchanged, she just stood up and closed the box.
"The Chongxing Cup is fake." She said calmly.
"Fake? Then where is it really?" a voice from the darkness asked sharply.
"I don't know." The female Taoist replied.
"Kill her! Get the cup first, who knows whether what she said is true or false!" said a sharp voice.
The people around him suddenly swarmed around him.
After a while.
The snow fell harder, the snow was bright red, and bodies were lying everywhere.
Pfft.
The female Taoist slowly pulled her hand out from the heart of the last white-haired old man and shook off the blood on it.
"I told you it was a lie."
Looking at the old man's dead body lying on the ground, she said calmly.
Next, she had to find out where the real Chongxing Cup was. That Master Zhuang had been surrounded and killed by people from the Ancient Sword Sect.
And if the Ancient Sword Sect had obtained the real cup, they would never come here again to surround and kill Zhou Dashanren’s adopted son and daughter.
And if Zhou Dashan got the cup, he wouldn't stay there, he would turn around and leave immediately.
So...it is very possible that the cup was tampered with by Mr. Zhuang.
The female Taoist's eyes narrowed, and she knew from which direction to investigate.
Who did Mr. Zhuang come into contact with and where did he go in Feiye City during his lifetime? These people and these places must be the key to his possible hiding of the cup.
After all, in front of Feiye City, he had no chance or time to adjust the contract halfway.
Only when he arrived in Feiye City and enjoyed this period of stability could he be able to find craftsmen to customize the cups and carve them with precision.
After determining the direction, the female Taoist turned and walked towards the gate of Feiye City.

At Zangjian Gorge.
The Jueru birds that filled the sky were easily lured away by the lure of the beast's bait.
Taking this opportunity, everyone's convoy drove into the canyon one after another, and then moved forward quickly.
The animal bait was eaten halfway, and someone immediately threw the second animal bait out from a distance.
Immediately, large groups of Jueru birds were attracted towards it.
The convoy continued to move forward and passed through the Zangjian Gorge safely.
After crossing the canyon and driving forward for a while, Fang Zheng and others relaxed a little and rested for a while.
Wei He and others also planned to part ways with the team.
"Xiao Chunzi, you really don't plan to leave with us?" Wan Qingqing looked at Fang Yongchun who was seeing him off across the way and said with a smile.
She and Wei He both liked this smart and cute little girl. After checking her bones, they found that she was actually a child, so she planned to accept her as a disciple.
pity...
"Thank you, Sister Qingqing. I still decided to stay with my adoptive father and the others. I don't want to be separated from them." The little girl bowed and thanked her seriously. In her opinion, to learn martial arts, you only need to go around and spend money to join a boxing academy.
"What a pity..." Wan Qingqing sighed.
Wei He smiled at the side.
"If you really like her, just leave her a thought."
"That's okay." Wan Qingqing took out a Ten Thousand Poison Sect token from his sleeve, raised it slightly, and threw it on the ground in front of Fang Yongchun, inserting it upside down.
"This is my personal token. If you want to come to me in the future, you can use this to come to Fusong Town, Xuanjing, Taizhou. There is a Wanjia Restaurant there. Just show this to me." Wan Qingqing
Advice.
"Thank you, Sister Qingqing." Fang Yongchun was immediately happy. Knowing that this was an opportunity, he quickly picked it up and put it away.
It's snowing heavily, and the snow layer accumulated on the ground is getting thicker and thicker.
The convoys on both sides finally separated completely, branched off towards two different roads ahead, and left.
There are only six people, one leopard and one horse on Wei He's side.
The cart that the three-horned leopard had been pulling for a while was replaced by the original horse.
It was all because the leopard was swaying due to pulling, and even after being beaten many times, it was to no avail. It was still not as stable as the original horse.
Wei He simply changed the original horses.
As a result, Monk Sandu was sent to be responsible for hunting and other chores with his three-horned leopard.
The task of driving fell to Bai Dou, who had just conquered.
A bone-forging martial artist used it to drive a chariot, which is why Wei He was so extravagant.
However, his own strength far exceeded that of Bone Forging, so he didn't care much about it.
Crossing the Zangjian Gorge, there is a sea of trees in front of you.
It was also the sea of trees on the border when Wei He left Yunzhou.
While he was sitting cross-legged in the car practicing meditation, he was looking sideways out of the car window to enjoy the scenery.
"Is this Yunzhou?" Wan Qingqing asked softly, leaning against him.
She has never been to Yunzhou.
"After this sea of trees, we reach the realm of Yunzhou. At that time, when I left here, I only had my second sister and a few brothers who returned to the Shanquan Academy..." Wei He recalled.
"You must have been at level three at that time, right? Such a small number of people, leaving their hometown for the first time, have to cross such a long sea of trees and face so many dangerous beasts." Wan Qingqing sighed, "I'm afraid it's very hard. Bar?"
"It was very hard." Wei He nodded. "But it's all in the past."
On the one hand, he came back this time to pick up his second sister Wei Ying. On the other hand, it was also a return visit to his old place, hoping to find out the whereabouts of his eldest sister's parents.
You want to see people alive, and you want to see corpses when dead.
And if he really died, how did he die? Who killed him? Who harmed him?
It is inevitable to clear out a group of people.
And back then, the Seven Family Alliance caused the Huishan Boxing Academy to fall apart and Master Zheng to be seriously injured and die...
Hongjiabao, Martial Arts Alliance, Xiangtuojiao, Shaoyangmen, and the former senior brothers, Guan Ke, Cheng Shaojiu, Jiang Yan, and Jiang Su.
Scenes of memories and individuals kept flashing before his eyes.
"At that time, I still remember that the plague was spreading in the city, and my second sister was kind-hearted, so she opened a shop to sell steamed buns. She made steamed buns from grains and sold them cheaply to the poor in the city, so that they could exchange them for other things. "
Wei He smiled.
"Now that I think about it, I was stupid. I was lucky that a large group of people didn't swarm up and rob the shop, and I didn't get sick."
"Sister, does this kind of thing still happen?" Wan Qingqing said with a slightly surprised smile.
"Well, the place where we lived at that time was damp and cold, and the corners were full of mold. There would be mice scurrying around at night. The mice at that time were also very hungry, and they would bite your feet if you were not careful. Take a big bite and you'll get sick.
And too many people died of starvation and illness in the city. The supply of medicinal herbs simply exceeded the demand... Once bitten by a mouse, you may die soon. So you must be extremely careful." Wei He recalled.
"It's so painful..." Wan Qingqing had never heard of such an experience before, and immediately reached out gently to hold Wei He's hand.
"That's not all. When it gets dark at night, you must close the door in time. Otherwise, if the Katori Sect's procession finds you awake, they will forcibly drag you out of the house to preach. They will make you lose money and join the team. If you don't agree, then Then the family would be broken up and people would die." Wei He said, "At that time, every night, I could hear bursts of preaching outside."
Wan Qingqing was speechless when she heard this. Having grown up in Tianyinmen, she had never experienced such a difficult and dangerous life. Just listening to it felt difficult.
"I'll take you back to see where I lived and where I first started practicing martial arts... Then we'll go pay homage to my enlightenment teacher." Wei He said solemnly.
"Without Master Zheng, I wouldn't be where I am now."
"Yes!" Wan Qingqing nodded seriously. She also wanted to see what kind of environment her husband grew up in.
