The dripping red liquid slid down Zhengge's sharp knife, and soon it was restored to its original state. This was the characteristic of top-level weapons, blood would not remain on them.

Chen Xiao's wrist was shaking, and half of his body was still numb from the impact just now. He was gasping for breath, and his legs felt extremely weak.

Tong Nuonuo was not part of the plan to throw them out with him. Chen Xiao panicked for a moment before he remembered to use Feng Shui to find her. The performance of a magic weapon with an owner is different from that of an ownerless one. Chen Xiao couldn't find it after searching for a while. Fortunately, Qi Lian went crazy later and smashed out waves in the aura.

Tong Nuonuo cooperated with Chen Xiao, and the two of them took a shortcut and rushed to the front of Qi Lian to block him.

Qilian was completely dead with his head and body separated. Tang Ru could no longer maintain the illusion. The scene of the dense trees around him slowly disappeared, and a wide field with only sparse trees and grass appeared.

Tong Nuonuo groaned in pain, holding his legs with a pale face. His body movements were not as solid as Chen Xiao's, and he failed to control himself when dodging, and fell directly onto a large rock.

"Brother Xiao!" A gust of wind passed by, and Xi Yunting's figure suddenly appeared in front of him. Seeing Chen Xiao standing there, the tension in his eyes faded.

Xi Yunting frowned slightly, "You used the Mirage, and I couldn't find any trace of you."

Chen Xiao reached out and held Xi Yunting's hand. When his fingers brushed across his wrist, his fingertips touched his rapidly beating pulse.

The evil cultivators came too suddenly, and Chen Xiao and the others did not have time to tell him their plan in detail. They suddenly lost their whereabouts, so it was no wonder that Xi Yunting was worried about their safety.

Chen Xiao's eyes softened, and he moved towards Xi Yunting, stretching out his arms to hug him: "I'm fine, we are all alive."

Tang Ru was seriously injured and fainted after being relieved. Tong Nuonuo's leg was shattered and fractured, and she could only walk with the help of others. So Chen Xiao supported Tong Nuonuo, and Xi Yunting carried the unconscious Tang Ru on his back. The group returned to Chongshan's courtyard, and Bai Jiguang was still hiding in the thorn bush.

Several people ignored him and quickly opened the door in front of him.

Bai Jiguang was stunned. He thought that these people had not been able to break through, so they hid in the mountains near the courtyard. He was annoyed and regretful. If he had not been plotting to steal the secret treasure left by Chongshan, he would not have stayed there and waited for them to come back.

Tong Nuonuo had one foot on the ground, but he was still able to stand steadily. Although his face was still very pale, his spirit was not too bad. He Bai Jiguang raised his chin: "What about him?"

Chen Xiao hesitated, not knowing how to deal with this person. If they were fighting, he would not show mercy to the enemy. Although Bai Jiguang was an evil man, he did not take action the whole time. And now he was a prisoner, Chen Xiao did not have the heart to kill someone who could not resist.

Xi Yunting said indifferently, "I will find a place to lock him up first, and then hand him over to Jianzhai when we return to Taizhen. Someone will naturally deal with him there."

Bai Jiguang had the courage to resist the three foundation builders, but in front of the sword cultivator, he had no choice but to surrender. Bai Jiguang was quite good at reading people's expressions, and knew that the sword cultivator had no patience to deal with him at this moment, and he didn't want to cause any more trouble. Although he might be punished if he was handed over to the sword hall, it was better than dying here.

Tong Nuonuo's fracture was almost healed in two days by applying external remedies and taking internal elixirs. Chen Xiao's injury was even lighter, and he was healed after applying the ointment once. Only Tang Ru's injury was the most serious, and he suffered from the backlash of the magic weapon. Even Xi Yunting, who carried many elixirs with him, did not have the elixir for the disease.

The three of them discussed for a while and decided to take Tang Ru back to Zhencaotang in Taizhen Tianjing to seek treatment.

After packing up, the group left Chongshan's courtyard. Because there was nothing valuable here, Chen Xiao did not open the test on the gate again. He left the courtyard open to welcome the next person who came here intentionally or unintentionally.

Xi Yunting was responsible for looking after Bai Jiguang, while Chen Xiao and Tong Nuonuo took turns carrying Tang Ru on their backs, almost without stopping, all the way back to Taizhen.

Zhencaotang is the largest medical store under Taizhen, and is no stranger to Tang Ru's injuries caused by the backlash of magic weapons. Soon, an elderly alchemist took out the right elixir for the wound, and Chen Xiao took it and stuffed it into Tang Ru's mouth in the clinic.

Tang Ru had been drowsy for a while, but luckily he was eating and drinking well. The elixir was very effective, and after taking it, Tang Ru's frown relaxed a lot.

Chen Xiao felt relieved upon seeing this.

At this time, Xi Yunting said to him, "Brother Xiao, you stay here with Fellow Daoist Tang. I will take Bai Jiguang to Jianzhai. If I am not back in half a day, you should go back to Linglang Valley first."

Chen Xiao looked at Xi Yunting and said, "Okay, big brother, come back soon."

Tong Nuonuo volunteered: "I'll go with Brother Xi!"

Xi Yunting did not object. He paused for a moment and said something to Tong Nuonuo that surprised him, "If you don't mind, Brother Tong, you can call me Brother Daoist."

This was the first time in history that this had happened. Not only Tong Nuonuo, but even Chen Xiao was a little surprised.

As if feeling embarrassed by the two people's surprised looks, Xi Yunting frowned and turned to leave.

Tong Nuonuo was still standing there at a loss, but seeing this, he quickly followed, "Well... you can also just call me Nuonuo, calling me Taoist friend is too polite..."

Chen Xiao watched the two men escorting Bai Jiguang away from Zhencaotang, and couldn't help but smile.

Because of his upbringing and his special abilities that were difficult to control, Xi Yunting found it difficult to accept others approaching him. After such a long time of adventure together, he finally recognized these companions as friends. This made Chen Xiao happy for his elder brother, but also a little sour. Xi Yunting's friends would more or less share his feelings that originally belonged to him, and gain his care and concern.

However, Chen Xiao was still mature enough and quickly suppressed his subtle emotions. He turned around and returned to Tang Ru's side to guard her.

After waiting for a long time, Xi Yunting and Tong Nuonuo did not come back. Chen Xiao frowned and waited for another half an hour. Seeing that the sky was getting dark, he took Tang Ruxian to Linglang Valley.

They had been walking for such a long time, so they naturally gave up the original pavilion. However, because that place was the highest, had the best view, and was the most expensive, no one else was staying there, so Chen Xiao directly chose it.

Chen Xiao settled Tang Ru down and ordered dinner. Xi Yunting and Tong Nuonuo came back.

Chen Xiao greeted them: "It's just right that you're back. I just ordered dinner and we'll be eating soon."

Xi Yunting was still calm and composed, but Tong Nuonuo ran to the table excitedly and drank a bellyful of tea. He wiped his mouth and said excitedly: "Xiaoxiao, you will never guess that we got a big news from Bai Jiguang!"

Chen Xiao looked at him in surprise and said, "From Bai Jiguang's mouth? What news?"

At this time, Tong Nuonuo looked at Xi Yunting with admiration, "It was not until then that I understood why Brother Xi wanted to bring Bai Jiguang back to Jianzhai. Bai Jiguang used to be a member of the Equipment Refiners' Union. After he joined the evil practice, he was naturally expelled from the Equipment Refiners' Union and was put on the wanted list. We handed Bai Jiguang over to Jianzhai. Brother Xi did not want the reward from the Equipment Refiners' Union, but only wanted to exchange it for the information that Bai Jiguang gave us."

Chen Xiao asked in confusion: "Bai Jiguang fell into our hands before. If we interrogated him at that time, wouldn't he have said anything? Why did we have to go through so much trouble to get this information?"

Tong Nuonuo said: "You don't understand this. Although Bai Jiguang is afraid of death, he is more afraid of betraying the secrets of the evil cultivators. If the evil cultivators find out, his life will be in vain. It doesn't matter if he enters Jianzhai. After all, Jianzhai has a cooperative relationship with the Equipment Refiner Alliance, and the evil cultivators can't infiltrate and kill him. At this time, in order to survive, he will naturally exchange the information he knows."

"I see." Chen Xiao nodded.

Tong Nuonuo sat down on the seat next to Chen Xiao, looked up and saw Xi Yunting looking at him, then he suddenly realized that he was sitting in the wrong place, and quickly got up and moved to the opposite side of Chen Xiao. Although he can now proudly call himself Xi Yunting's friend, his fear of Xi Yunting's cold face has not been reduced much.

Chen Xiao urged Tong Nonuo to tell the inside story quickly and not to keep it a secret. Tong Nonuo said, "Bai Jiguang said that this matter is not a secret in the heaven where he came from. It's just that due to geographical reasons, the news has never been passed on. It is said that a rumor has spread among the evil cultivators, saying that a fairy palace has been discovered, and this fairy palace is closely related to Chongshan!"

"What is the Immortal Palace?" Chen Xiao asked, "and what does it have to do with Chongshan?"

Xi Yunting sat next to Chen Xiao and explained, "The Immortal Palace is where the immortals live. However, the real immortals are not in the heavenly world, but have ascended to another world, which is also called the Immortal Realm. The Immortal Palace we are talking about now is just the residence where the immortals live after they have transcended the tribulation and before they ascend to heaven."

Tong Nuonuo nodded repeatedly: "That's right! In order to survive the final thunder tribulation, cultivators in the tribulation period need to make a lot of preparations, such as a solid shelter, magic weapons to resist the thunder tribulation, elixirs to protect themselves, etc."

Chen Xiao said in confusion: "Could it be that this Immortal Palace is a shelter prepared by a cultivator in the Tribulation Crossing Stage?"

"Yes, and this Immortal Palace itself is a magic weapon, which was refined by Chongshan. After that person survived the thunder tribulation, he ascended directly to the Immortal Realm, and the Immortal Palace was not taken back in time, so it was left behind." Tong Nuonuo said with shining eyes, "So now the immortal cultivators on Bai Jiguang's side are frantically looking for this thing everywhere."

Chen Xiao looked at Tong Nuonuo steadily and said slowly: "Don't you hate weapon refiners? Why are you so excited too?"

Tong Nuonuo rolled her eyes at him and said, "I'm happy for you, okay? You have inherited Chongshan's legacy, so you have a good chance of finding that fairy palace!"
