Three months later, Xiao Nanfeng turned seventeen. He originally thought that the skeleton man would leave after being entangled for a while, but in the past few months, he had changed more than a hundred kinds of incense, and Mrs. Rouge still refused to let him go, sitting in his room every day.
Staying awake until dawn tempered his spirit. Fortunately, he read Taoist scriptures every day and was stimulated by the sound of the piano, which greatly improved his soul power.
"Nan Feng, it's raining, why don't you come in and take shelter?" Xiao Yu's urging voice came.
Xiao Nanfeng slowly opened his eyes and looked at Xiaoyu playing the piano not far away.
"The sound of the piano is so beautiful, I am naturally fascinated by it. Senior sister's piano skills are getting better and better!" Xiao Nanfeng walked to the eaves and praised.
"Of course! I will master all Master's piano skills sooner or later. When you reach the innate realm and start refining your soul, I will use the sound of the piano to help you practice," Xiao Yu said proudly.
"Thank you very much, Senior Sister." Xiao Nanfeng said with a smile without further explanation.
While the two were chatting and laughing, a young man walked up to them holding an umbrella.
"Senior Brother Nanfeng, Senior Sister Xiaoyu." The young man said respectfully.
"Huh?" Xiao Yu looked at the strange man in confusion, obviously not recognizing him.
"Senior Brother Nanfeng, do you still remember me?" The man smiled politely.
"You are..." Xiao Nanfeng said doubtfully, vaguely feeling that this person looked familiar.
"On the day of my apprenticeship, during the test at the Zhaoxian Palace Square, we fell into an illusion together. It was Senior Brother Nanfeng who took me and others to dismantle the skeletons and escape. I, Chen Ran, came here to thank Senior Brother for saving my life."
"It's just a little effort." Xiao Nanfeng remembered.
"I am now working with Senior Brother Zhao Yuanjiao, and this time I am here to invite you on the order of Senior Brother Zhao." Chen Ran said again.
"Zhao Yuanjiao? Why is he looking for Nanfeng?" When Xiaoyu heard about Zhao Yuanjiao, his face became serious.
Although Zhao Yuanjiao is also Elder Ku's apprentice, Xiao Yu just doesn't like Zhao Yuanjiao.
"Tang Xiaoyi, Ma Shan and others who were captured more than three months ago have been detained in the prison for interrogation. They, the devil sect's secret agents, have always been stubborn and refused to let go until yesterday. However, senior brother Nanfeng seemed to be mentioned in their words.
You, therefore, Senior Brother Zhao would like to ask you to help interrogate them together." Chen Ran explained.
"Ma Shan? Tang Xiaoyi? Are they still alive? The interrogation lasted so long? Why not just use severe torture and kill a few of them, then they will be frightened and tell them all?" Xiao Nanfeng asked confused.
"Huh?" Chen Ran was startled, what did you mean?
"They killed many Xuanmai brothers. With such a big hatred, there is no need to talk to them about human rights! Who is in charge of the interrogation? So pedantic?" Xiao Nanfeng asked curiously.
Chen Ran looked at Xiao Nanfeng in shock, not knowing how to explain it for a moment.
"Nanfeng, in fact, not everyone in the Demon Sect is guilty of heinous crimes. There are only a few murderers who need to be executed. We usually only imprison ordinary Demon Sect disciples. As for Ma Shan and others, I guess it is not confirmed that they are the ones who killed the senior brothers last time.
The murderer." Xiaoyu explained.
"Why are we so tolerant to the Demon Sect? They all blended into our Taiqing Immortal Sect and were just imprisoned? How can this scare the young and scare the young?" Xiao Nanfeng frowned and asked in confusion.
"Don't you still know about the situation of the Demon Sect?" Xiao Yu said with a strange expression.
"Uh, what's going on?"
"The Demon Sect is also called the Taiqing Demon Sect!" Xiao Yu said.
"Taiqing Demon Sect? Wait, we are Taiqing Immortal Sect, and they are Taiqing Demon Sect? They are both called 'Taiqing'? Is there any connection?" Xiao Nanfeng couldn't help but ask.
"You guessed it right. The top leaders of the Demon Sect used to be members of our Taiqing Immortal Sect. I heard that after a catastrophe two hundred years ago, they split from the Taiqing Immortal Sect because of different ideas. It was then that they founded
Taiqing Demon Sect. Because they both belong to the Taiqing lineage, except for a few extreme disciples who kill each other, most of the disciples have no hatred, and the top leaders of the two sects do not want to have internal conflicts with each other. Therefore, they are tolerant of each other, and only imprison those who have not committed the most serious crimes.
No execution." Xiao Yu explained.
"Can it still be like this?" Xiao Nanfeng looked strange.
"Senior Brother Nanfeng, I wonder when you will leave?" Chen Ran said respectfully.
"Why didn't Zhao Yuanjiao come by himself? Do you think Nanfeng will come and go as soon as he is called? Go and tell Zhao Yuanjiao that you want to ask Nanfeng for help and ask him to do it himself." Xiaoyu helped Xiao Nanfeng and refused directly.
"Senior Brother Nanfeng, Brother Zhao couldn't leave for a while, so he gave a jade pendant and said, if you are not moved, let me show the jade pendant to Elder Ku immediately to show the importance of the matter. Elder Ku persuaded you to go." Chen
Ran took out a jade pendant with a wry smile on his face.
"Nanfeng, don't worry about it. Let Zhao Yuanjiao come and invite you in person. Humph, are you trying to use Master to suppress you? Who knows if it's true or not? We won't accept this!" Xiao Yu immediately interrupted.
Xiao Nanfeng was silent for a while and said: "I'd better go there. Zhao Yuanjiao knows my identity and doesn't dare to do anything to me. What's more, the master has just retreated. Is it okay for me to disturb the master for such a trivial matter?"
"Okay!" Xiao Yu was still a little unwilling.
It's early spring now, and the pattering ice rain falls on the umbrellas, making people unconsciously feel that the spring cold is getting worse.
Along the way, Chen Ran was very good at chatting and chatted a lot with Xiao Nanfeng about the gossip on the island. The two of them went more and more remote.
"Senior Brother Nanfeng, we're just over the mountain in front. Thank you very much this time, otherwise I won't be able to explain to Senior Brother Zhao when I go back." Chen Ran said gratefully.
"You work with Senior Brother Zhao, does he always give you guidance on your practice?" Xiao Nanfeng suddenly asked.
"Thanks to Senior Brother Zhao's guidance and practice, I finally reached the tenth level of the Houtian Realm recently. Senior Brother Zhao often praises Senior Brother Nanfeng." Chen Ran smiled politely.
Xiao Nanfeng's smile froze, and he suddenly narrowed his eyes and stared at Chen Ran.
Zhao Yuanjiao praised me? Are you kidding me? A few days ago, Zhao Yuanjiao just came to pay a visit to the Master. At that time, he still looked at me very warily. Would he praise me?
In an instant, Xiao Nanfeng realized something was wrong.
Because Chen Ran is an acquaintance, do you believe him?
"Senior Brother Nanfeng, please go faster..." Chen Ran urged politely.
But what greeted Chen Ran was a huge fist. Chen Ran's pupils shrank and he punched suddenly.
With a bang, the two fists collided, and each other fell back. The umbrella in their hands exploded into pieces under the strong force.
"You really have a problem!" Xiao Nanfeng's face darkened.
If Chen Ran hadn't been prepared for the sneak attack just now, this punch would have knocked him out.
Chen Ran's face also darkened: "How did you discover the flaw?"
Xiao Nanfeng did not explain, but asked in a cold voice: "Even if you are a master of the Demon Sect, I have saved your life, but you actually repay kindness with hatred?"
"So what if we repay kindness with revenge? I am grateful to you for saving me that day, but I have an order from above and I have to respect it. Since you have followed me here, don't leave." Chen Ran was not ashamed at all, and even more coldly stopped.
It was Xiao Nanfeng's escape route.
"Is there an order from above? Who else is above you? Who set up the trap to lie to me today?" Xiao Nanfeng said solemnly.
"Want to trick me? Hehe, I'll tell you after I capture you."
Chen Ran sneered and stepped on a stone slab, which shattered a stone slab. It was like a cheetah pounced in front of Xiao Nanfeng. With a bang, the two fists collided again and separated from each other. Xiao Nanfeng took three steps back to stabilize his body.
His fists were numb, and Chen Ran only took a step back.
"It's so powerful. I am at the 10th level of the Houtian realm, but I am only a sliver stronger than you? Are you at the 9th level of the Houtian realm? No, you practice pure Yang Qi, and you are only at the 8th level of the Houtian realm?" Chen
Ran said in surprise.
"It's enough to beat you!" Xiao Nanfeng stepped forward.
"Really?" Chen Ran rushed forward mockingly.
Bang, bang, two loud noises, the two fists and elbows collided, and they were in a stalemate. However, they saw Xiao Nanfeng's fist suddenly turned into an afterimage, and at the same time, another fist hit Chen Ran's face.
"This is!?" Chen Ran exclaimed as he looked at the fist that was getting closer.
The fist suddenly hit him, and with a bang, Chen Ran was thrown away and fell hard on a big rock. When he got up, his face was covered in blood and the bridge of his nose collapsed. It was so tragic.
Xiao Nanfeng didn't stop, leaping forward like a tiger.
"Ba Fist, Shadow Killing Style? I was just careless for a moment. You are two levels weaker than me, how could you beat me?" Chen Ran rushed forward with a gloomy expression.
"Didn't Tang Xiaoyi tell you? The last time I hit Chen Hai, I jumped twice?"
Xiao Nanfeng punched again, and four afterimages of his fists appeared. Chen Ran was suddenly confused, and he didn't know which two to intercept with his palms.
"Bang!"
Chen Ran was thrown out again, smashing a large rock into pieces. When he got up covered in blood, the world was spinning for a moment.
"The ghost is really lingering. You devil sects are so sophisticated, don't you know how to find someone else? Why do you choose me every time? Since you are plotting against me, just stay here today. The sect is tolerant to you and will only imprison you?"
But, I will never be tolerant towards my enemies." A chill flashed in Xiao Nanfeng's eyes.
A leg whip went straight to Chen Ran's head.
"don't want!"
With a bang, Chen Ran dodged his head at the critical moment, but was still kicked off by Xiao Nanfeng's leg whip and his right arm was broken. With a click, he was smashed into a pile of rubble while screaming.
"Come on, help, come on!" Chen Ran screamed in pain.
Xiao Nanfeng: "..."
Mo Zong Xizuo still dares to call for help, why is this person less moral than Tang Xiaoyi?
