His whole body was dripping with blood, and his appearance could hardly be seen clearly.
He looked at Xu Zimo dying, his voice was hoarse, and he said with excitement: "I said, I will say anything, I just want you to give me pleasure."
"Then let's talk," Xu Zimo nodded.
"It's Lin Feng. Your brother asked me to assassinate you. I was just following orders," Yang Cheng replied.
"Why kill me?" Xu Zimo asked: "I don't seem to be in his way."
"I don't know this, how dare I ask.
He is cruel and ruthless, and I usually stand up to him in front of him," Yang Cheng replied.
"Then it was you who almost killed me outside the sect last time?" Xu Zimo asked again.
"No, I didn't know anything about what happened last time. He probably didn't do it," Yang Cheng replied.
Xu Zimo nodded slightly, and as soon as he finished speaking, a ball of hellfire ignited for no reason, directly burning Yang Cheng into ashes.
After leaving the world of true life, Xu Zimo returned to the small courtyard where he lived.
It was already afternoon at this time, and the turmoil about today's competition was probably still spreading on Taixiao Peak.
He is preparing to leave the city tomorrow. Xu Zimo may have been in this world for a long time and has hardly visited it.
After the Nine Heavens Festival is over, he will prepare to find the battlefield of gods and demons.
Throughout the whole day, Xu Zimo was trying to open up the fifth strange pulse and practice his newly acquired pulse skills.
Time flies by like a fleeting moment.
Time passes quickly during practice without realizing it.
When Xu Zimo opened his eyes, the night had already passed, and the early sun on the horizon illuminated the whole world.
He walked out of the room, and Jiang Changsheng was already waiting in the pavilion in the courtyard.
"Senior brother, are you going down the mountain today?" Jiang Changsheng asked.
"Well, you go with me," Xu Zimo nodded and replied.
"That's okay, I happen to have some mysterious medicine to buy," Jiang Changsheng agreed.
Because Lin Bei was afraid that Xu Zimo would be in danger when he went down the mountain alone, he specially asked him to go down the mountain with Lin Feng.
The place they agreed on happened to be at the mountain gate.
When Xu Zimo and Jiang Changsheng arrived, they found Lin Feng already waiting there.
At this moment, there was not only Lin Feng at the mountain gate, but also a young man and a woman.
When Xu Zimo approached, he saw the young man slightly cupping his hands and saying with a smile: "Junior Brother Lin, my name is Yelu Liang."
"Murong Yao'er," the woman next to her said calmly.
"Brother, Senior Brother Yeluliang is the true disciple of the third elder of Taixiao Peak.
Miss Murong is from Shenxiao Peak, and she accepted my invitation to go out together this time," Lin Feng said with a smile.
Xu Zimo nodded without showing too much enthusiasm.
"Then let's set off. It will take about three days to go down the mountain.
The people from the main clan are arriving soon, everyone is ready to prepare, and there is no need to be careless about the Jiuxiao Festival," Lin Feng reminded.
Jiang Changsheng shook his head and said: "Actually, there is nothing prepared.
My young master has unparalleled skills, both in terms of appearance and strength, he is a first-class presence in this Jiuxiao event.
He claims to be number one, who dares to disapprove?"
After hearing Jiang Changsheng's words, Murong Yao'er next to him didn't say anything.
However, Yelu Liang sneered and said as if talking to himself, "It's true that every dog has its own owner. I don't know where the confidence comes from."
"Senior brother, did you hear the dog barking just now?" Jiang Changsheng turned his head and looked at Xu Zimo and asked.
"I heard it," Xu Zimo next to him nodded.
Said: "The dog is certainly at fault, but his owner must be responsible if he fails to teach him well."
"Who are you calling a dog?" Yeluliang's face changed slightly and he looked at Jiang Changsheng and asked.
"I didn't tell you, so don't take your seat.
If this title is too suitable for you, wouldn't it be embarrassing?" Jiang Changsheng waved his hand and said with a smile.
Yeluqi next to him turned pale.
Lin Feng waved his hands indifferently, looked at Xu Zimo and said: "We were all quarreled, brother, you were almost killed last time you left the clan.
Although we are here this time, we still have to be careful.”
Hearing the threat in Lin Feng's words, Xu Zimo smiled and said, "Then I'm really looking forward to the person who killed me appearing again."
……………
After exiting the gate of Taixiao Peak, there is another gate of Jiuxiao Emperor Sect outside.
Under the mountain peak, a series of jasper stone staircases stretch to the feet. White mist wraps around the stone staircases, giving people a dreamy feeling.
Along the way, there are green trees and green water, and occasionally a few solitary birds are flying.
The gate of the Jiuxiao Emperor Sect is guarded by people from the Nine Chai in turns.
Today it happened to be the turn of people from the Shenxiao Peak lineage to guard it.
Although the Jiuxiao Emperor Sect has declined now, even among the Emperor Sect, it is still relatively low.
But some of the glory of the past still remains. For example, this mountain gate looks particularly majestic and tall.
The pure white mountain gate is tens of meters high, with many patterns carved on both sides of the gate.
The white mist hides the entire mountain gate in haze, looming like a fairy mist.
The sect-protecting formation was activated all around, and the transparent barrier enveloped the entire Jiuxiao Emperor Sect.
This sect-protecting formation has a history of tens of thousands of years, and was passed down from the glorious days of the Jiuxiao Emperor Sect.
When Xu Zimo and his party walked out of the mountain gate, the disciple who was guarding there only greeted Murong Yao'er, the senior sister of Shenxiao Peak.
As for Xu Zimo and others, after looking at their respective identity tokens, they didn't even bother with them.
This also shows how deep the contradiction between the Nine Meridians disciples really is.
……………
The Southern Territory is vast, and the Jiuxiao Emperor Sect is located in the east of the Southern Territory.
To the north is the Monster Mountain Range, and to the west is the Realm Emperor Holy Sect.
The boundless Jiuzhou River flows slowly beside the sect, and the territory controlled by the Jiuxiao Emperor Sect is not very large.
There are only four cities in this territory managed by the Nine Heavens Emperor Sect.
The city closest to the Jiuxiao Emperor Sect is Huohuang City in the west.
Huohuang City is also the largest and most prosperous city among the four cities.
Jiuxiao Emperor Sect was established on Jiuxiao Mountain. In addition to the mountain gate, you have to walk down the mountain.
It was summer at this time, and the hot sunshine was like a big fireball, hanging in the sky and baking the earth.
The trees on both sides of the mountain road all drooped their heads listlessly.
Along the way, everyone was relatively quiet.
Only Lin Feng and Murong Yi'er were whispering to each other, and Xu Zimo could tell that they both had a good impression of each other.
The road down the mountain was not rugged or steep, but because the weather was too hot, everyone's foreheads were already covered with dense beads of sweat.
At noon, everyone stopped under a large leafy tree.
Lin Feng suggested: "Yan'er and I will go out to find some thirst-quenching fruits. You guys can stay here and rest for a while."
Xu Zimo nodded and did not object.
Watching Lin Feng and the two walking further and further away, they gradually disappeared into the jungle.
