The Fire Phoenix is ​​the most dangerous spiritual beast in the Trial Secret Realm and has been entrenched on the top of the West Mountain for a hundred years.

According to legend, this spiritual beast is fiery red all over, dozens of feet long, can spit out flames from its mouth, flap its wings to attract hurricanes, and absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth for its own use. Wherever it goes, no grass or trees will grow, and all beasts will flee.

Looking around, the West Mountain is covered with red and black soil and tree debris. The traces of the burning fire still remain today, and there is no trace of green.

Forgive Ningning for being blunt, it looks like a chocolate mountain.

"With our strength, can we really defeat the Fire Phoenix?"

Xu Ye didn't understand the power of Pei Ji's protagonist halo, just like the day didn't understand the darkness of the night. As he approached the west mountain pass, he felt a little uneasy: "If I'm not careful, there will be an obituary posted on the wall of Luancheng in three days - several sword cultivators were buried in the secret trial realm, and when they were found, they had been roasted and dried into human jerky."

He Zhizhou had no such concerns and was very open-minded: "What are you afraid of? If you can't win, just run away."

He was originally teasing Xu Ye and his Senior Sister Su. Although he was suddenly interrupted, the gossip fire in his heart had not yet subsided. So he looked around at everyone and stopped his gaze on the face of the little fox Qiao Yan: "Miss Qiao, do you have a lover?"

Although the fox clan is unrestrained and bold by nature, the little girl's ears turned red instantly when she heard this question.

Qiao Yan was silent for a while, then nodded slightly.

The group of older brothers and sisters around exchanged glances with each other and smiled knowingly.

He Zhizhou took advantage of the situation and continued to ask her, "Is it a boy from the tribe?"

"Um."

Qiao Yan did not try to hide it, lowering her head and answering softly, "It's just that he has also exhausted his vitality because of the formation, and he lies in bed all day... You must not tell him! It's just my wishful thinking, he doesn't like me."

Xu Ye comforted her, "Maybe he just loves you but can't express it, just like my senior sister treats me, she is always cold. But I know that she has me in her heart."

Ningning: ...

What do you mean by "I love you but I can't express it"? Maybe Senior Sister Su really doesn't like you.

"No! He doesn't care about me at all. He has been ignoring me since we were little. He even lost the Thousand Silk Tassels amulet that I had worked so hard to find."

Qiao Yan kicked a small stone on the ground and lowered her voice: "If you don't like it, then don't like it. When I leave the secret realm in the future, there will be many boys waiting for me to choose."

Ning Ning thought of what Qin Niang said and looked at her sideways: "When do you plan to leave the secret realm?"

"Of course, after everyone is cured!"

The little fox shook his ears unconsciously, and when he brought up this topic, his eyes lit up a little: "I made an appointment with my parents a long time ago to go see the mountains and rivers outside together - by the way, is there something called fireworks? I have always wanted to see it with my own eyes."

He Zhizhou leaned over to Ningning and whispered, "Why does this sound more and more like a death flag? The little fox won't--"

Halfway through her speech, she remembered that her father had indeed passed away a long time ago.

He Zhizhou didn't say anything else. Xu Ye, who was not far away, suddenly looked stern and shouted in a deep voice, "Wait! Look, what is that?"

Ningning looked over and saw a figure in a white dress lying on the ground.

Qiao Yan responded quickly: "It's a girl, I'll go take a look!"

After she finished speaking, she rushed forward without any precautions. It seemed that she was indeed naive and innocent. The unconscious girl was wearing the uniform of the Lumen Mountain Gate. When she was approached cautiously, she opened her eyes weakly.

Qiao Yan naturally wouldn't notice that when she caught a glimpse of Ning Ning and her group behind her, this sickly-looking stranger pursed her lips slightly and a sneer flashed across her eyes.

——She is Liu Ying, the Neon Island disciple who has been responsible for monitoring the Xuanxu Sword Sect.

Ever since learning that the jade pendant in Fire Phoenix's hand could open the secret door and find the Burning Sun Bow, Neon Island has made up its mind to take it away.

The strength of sword cultivators should not be underestimated, not to mention that all the members of the Xuanxu Sword Sect have reached the Golden Core stage. A head-on clash will surely result in mutual losses. Rather than fighting, she prefers to win by wits, like a mantis stalking a cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.

The West Mountain is not like the previous jungle, it is shaded by many trees. If I keep following them secretly, I will probably be discovered. Then I will be unable to defend myself and will end up being besieged and defeated. It would be better to blend in from the beginning and catch them off guard.

As far as Liu Ying knows, although the people of Xuanxu Sword Sect are not very reliable, fortunately they are kind-hearted and have always adhered to the principle of not offending others unless they are offended, and will not attack the kind and weak Xiao Baihua.

——Today is the time to take revenge for the tricks that were played on me in the secret realm of Xiaochongshan!

"Girl, what's wrong with you?"

Qiao Yan approached her first and was startled by the pale face of the woman in front of her. The latter struggled to open her lips and uttered a word with a weak breath: "Water..."

"Me, me, me! I have water here!"

Xu Ye was also not on guard and took out a water bag from his storage bag. After all, he was a man who spent money lavishly and didn't know how to take care of others. After hesitating for a moment, he wisely reached out his hand and handed the water bag to Qiao Yan.

The little fox was so eager to save the girl that he didn't think much about it and directly opened the water bag and poured the liquid into the girl's mouth.

It seemed that she was indeed very thirsty. She had been lying on the ground like a dead fish, but as soon as her mouth touched the water, her eyes widened as if she was coming to life.

——Then he spit out all the water, and with a hideous look on his face, he cried out in a mournful voice: "It's so hot!"

The water bag was full of boiling water, which was poured into her mouth. This was not saving people, but murder.

Xu Ye's heart trembled when he saw this, and he hurriedly said, "Really? Let me see!"

Liu Ying moved closer to him with a feeling of grievance, and was about to open her lips to let the other person take a glimpse of the blisters in her mouth caused by the burns. I never expected that before I could finish my expression, Xu Ye snatched it away.

The water bag in Qiao Yan's hand.

Then she heard the sword cultivator's voice, full of joy and surprise, without even glancing at her: "This water bag has such a good heat preservation effect! I filled it with water before leaving the inn, and it's still hot after such a long time! Buy one for my sister when I get back, she will definitely like it!"

Liu Ying: ...

Does this person have some brain disease?

Later, when Liu Ying recalled this scene, she felt as if it were a lifetime ago.

She's really stupid, really.

She was too young to know that all the gifts from fate were secretly marked with a price. When she heard what Xu Ye said, she should have understood that she couldn't afford the price behind it.

If only she had escaped then.

This group of people, this group of sword practitioners, they are all abnormal.

"Is this girl a fellow Taoist from Liuming Mountain?"

Another young man came forward, with a handsome face and elegant eyebrows. It was He Zhizhou, the famous master of Xuanxu Sword School. "I wonder why the girl fainted here?"

"My name is Liu Ying, and I'm a music practitioner in Liuming Mountain."

Liu Ying coughed lightly and said sadly, "I encountered an ambush by Neon Island on the way. Not only was my harp destroyed, but my spiritual power was also severely damaged... I fled here in a hurry, but I don't know how I passed out. I don't know when they will catch up with me again, please help me!"

After saying that, he raised his eyes sadly and quickly glanced at Pei Ji and Ning Ning not far away.

When she was talking with Rong Ci at the banquet that night and mentioned Ningning, Pei Ji glared at her. Liu Ying is not stupid. She deliberately put on a false face that looks pitiful so that she will not be recognized no matter what.

He Zhizhou has always been a warm-hearted person. Seeing that her breathing was unstable and she was about to faint again at any time, he said sternly: "That group of seductresses is really abominable! Miss Liu, this secret realm is extremely dangerous. Since you are already seriously injured, why don't you--"

Liu Ying had already thought of the following lines for him.

——"Why not come with us and let us protect you!"

She acted shyly and lowered her head slowly, then heard him speak righteously: "Why don't you just hand over all the tokens on you to me, withdraw from the competition and go out for treatment!"

After saying that, he patted his chest with a serious expression and said, "You are seriously injured and useless anyway, and it's over if you stay here. For your safety, I am willing to sacrifice my reputation and take on this unearned villain role. No need to thank me!"

What is a bolt from the blue? What is a thunderbolt from the sky?

Liu Ying was stunned, and all the elders who were watching the show outside the Xuan Mirror laughed.

This guy really doesn't play by the rules, and his face is thicker than most people can imagine. Even the most charming and seductive cultivator would have to stay away from him when they see him.

Liu Ying was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to refute. Suddenly, she heard a clear female voice: "Brother He, how can you treat a girl like this? It's not easy for her to make it on her own, why don't you take her with you first."

It’s Ningning.

Liu Ying gritted her teeth secretly. The last battle with Haoran Sect was extremely brutal, all thanks to this girl.

However, she would definitely lose if she fought alone, and she couldn't show her weakness at this moment. She could only pretend to sob with gratitude: "Thank you for your help, young lady!"

Ning Ning was talkative, and she introduced the names of several people present to her enthusiastically. She also said in a caring and gentle voice: "Miss Liu is weak, why don't you stay here to rest for a while, and let Senior Brother He and Xu Ye take care of you. Pei Ji, Miss Qiao and I will go ahead to explore the way, how about that?"

Liu Ying was smart. When she heard that she easily agreed to keep her, her first reaction was that this girl might be playing tricks again.

But now she had clearly changed her identity and face, so it was impossible for her to be seen through so easily. This thought was quickly suppressed in her mind.

She had thought Ning Ning was the most thoughtful, but now she was accepted so quickly, so she suppressed her laughter and replied, "Okay."

Time was running out during the trial, so the three of them turned around and continued walking up the mountain, leaving He Zhizhou, Xu Ye and Liu Ying looking at each other in bewilderment.

The people of Neon Island practice seductiveness, and both men and women are experts in alluring and charming people.

These two people had also participated in Xiao Chongshan's scam. Liu Ying had always held a grudge against them. Now that she finally had the chance to be alone with them, she couldn't help but smile in her heart.

If she doesn't take away the souls of these two sword cultivators today, she will become a nun.

"oops!"

Liu Ying was about to stand up, but the moment she stood up, her ankle twisted and she fell directly into the arms of He Zhizhou beside her.

She did not forget that the role she played was a weak little white flower, and she struggled and said with a tearful voice: "Yes, I'm sorry! I didn't expect it to be like this."

He Zhizhou was so frightened by this sudden attack that he almost screamed and threw her out. After seeing the face of the person clearly, he quietly breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay, it's okay. Miss Liu, you are not in good health, you should sit down and rest for a while."

Liu Ying, who was shaped like a weak willow, nodded obediently upon hearing the words, but a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth without revealing it.

Although this man behaved like a gentleman, he kept deliberately kneading her clothes. He must have had ulterior motives.

Just as I was thinking this, I suddenly heard He Zhizhou's voice: "What material are Miss Liu's clothes made of? I always feel that they feel very familiar."

What a stupid excuse.

Liu Ying chuckled when she heard this. Although she knew that this was just an excuse he used to disguise himself, there was an unconcealable sense of complacency between her brows.

This long skirt is woven with Tianyifang's secret silk thread and decorated with flowing cloud brocade. It is truly worth a fortune. Even if you sell this person, it wouldn't be enough to get a fraction of it.

She sat on the ground and bit her lips gently, and responded in a gentle voice: "Brother He, where have you seen this fabric?"

"That's it! That——"

He Zhizhou thought for a long time and finally found some memories. He shouted excitedly: "It looks like the pig feed bags at my grandma's house! They are all icy cold and one by one!"

He was quite emotional and clenched his fists as he spoke: "I haven't seen grandma for many years. I'm sure when I see Miss Liu in the future, I will think of her uncontrollably."

good. good.

Thanks to him, Liu Ying will never wear this or any clothes made of this material again.

Although she was hit hard by He Zhizhou's words, she always adhered to the principle of becoming more courageous after more setbacks. If this trick didn't work, she would just use a more powerful trick.

A gust of hot wind blew by, and on the steaming hillside, everyone's face had an unnatural blush.

A girl in white with an elegant and refined appearance was leaning against the tree trunk, her fair face faintly stained with a thin layer of pink. Her eyebrows were slightly frowned, her peach blossom eyes were like starlight, and her long black hair was scattered, adding a bit of charm to her appearance.

With a soft breath, she slowly leaned towards the tree trunk. The light white gauze-like clothing swayed slowly and slid down under her round, white shoulders.

The two people beside him saw this scene and showed surprise at the same time.

"What's wrong?"

Liu Ying smiled softly, with the ending of her voice slightly upturned, like an irresistible little hook: "What are you two looking at?"

“It’s amazing!”

He Zhizhou, who prides himself on being an expert at answering questions quickly, immediately said in a clear and serious voice, "With just a slight movement, the clothes can slide down. Could it be that Miss Liu is experiencing the legendary 'slippery old shoulders'?"

Liu Ying's smile froze on her lips.

——Are you sick? ! ! God damn, my old shoulders are so slippery! ! ! This is called skin as smooth as cream! ! !

Xu Ye's EQ was higher than his, and he looked at the fool with disdain: "Why are you being so clever? Can't you just give him a compliment?"

Finally said something sensible.

Liu Ying pursed her lips and smiled when she heard what he said. Her anger subsided a little, and her charming eyes were filled with light water. She listened to him continue, "Miss Liu's shoulders are extraordinarily delicate, not something that ordinary people can match. I also like them very much."

That's more like it.

She felt happy after hearing this and thought to herself that the Wanjian Sect was still reliable.

Xu Ye admired it with a smile on his face for a while, and actually looked up at her with a silly smile: "This skin texture and this curvature - it's perfect for cupping!"

Liu Ying: ...?

"Miss Liu, my senior sister has been practicing swordsmanship hard, and I heard that cupping can help relieve some of her blood stasis and activate her meridians. I have been studying this method for many days, but I have not been able to find a suitable tool person... Oh no, a kind person to help with the practice."

As he spoke, he became interested, his eyes sparkling: "Miss Liu is so kind and compassionate, if you are willing to help, I will be very grateful!"

Liu Ying is tired.

She is really tired.

Countless people have praised her beautiful shoulders, saying they are suitable for kissing, caressing or just quietly admiring, but no one has ever said to her, "Your shoulders are so beautiful, give her a cupping treatment."

——And you just blurted out the word "tool man", right you bastard.

She no longer had the heart to seduce the two men. For the first time, she began to deeply doubt her own business ability. After a moment of melancholy and daze, she pulled up her collar with a wooden face.

However, at this moment, when there seemed to be no way out, a new village suddenly appeared.

He Zhizhou, who was originally dumbfounded and had no interest, suddenly shouted: "Wait!"

What's wrong, you idiot!

There was anger in Liu Ying's eyes, and she looked up and glared at him fiercely.

Unexpectedly, He Zhizhou seemed to suddenly come to his senses. He stared straight at her half-exposed shoulders with an obvious obsession in his eyes.

Humph, men are really like this.

When she lifted up her clothes, he ignored her and pretended to be so noble, but in fact he was already distracted and could not suppress the desire in his heart.

Liu Ying knew their thoughts very well. She curled her lips slightly without stopping her hands. She deliberately pulled her clothes tighter and asked him innocently, "Brother He, what's wrong?"

He Zhizhou looked obsessed and murmured, "I've heard others say that this scene is so beautiful... Today I see that it's true. Miss Liu, could you please pull the clothes down a little more?"

This guy is definitely an old pervert.

Liu Ying pretended to shyly pull at her collar, and heard He Zhizhou exclaim, unable to conceal the excitement in her tone: "Xu Ye! Look, the static electricity generated by the friction between the human body and the chemical fiber is so beautiful!"

Liu Ying: ...?

Liu Ying has never had a day with so many questions in her mind as it does now.

Although she didn't know what "static electricity" was, she knew that when she put on and undressed, clothes would often generate electric current and lightning due to friction. Combined with He Zhizhou's train of thought, she roughly understood what he meant.

She wants to kill someone.

He Zhizhou was beaming with joy and couldn't wait: "Miss Liu, can you go a little higher? Yes! Just like that! Down again! Up again! Don't stop!"

Zhizhou said, let there be light.

So Liu Ying had a blank expression on her face and felt like she had lost all desire to live. She pulled her collar up and down over and over again.

At that moment, she was electricity, she was light, she was the only myth. The faint blue electric light dancing on his fingertips is He Zhizhou's eternal belief.

He Zhizhou was so excited that he danced with joy. Xu Ye was also amazed: "Indeed! It is so beautiful! What on earth is this phenomenon?"

If I talk about this he won't be sleepy anymore. While watching Liu Ying's performance, He Zhizhou began to explain what electrons, electric charges and electric currents are.

The rigorous logic and scientific narration can be regarded as the first lesson of the school in the world of immortal cultivation, bringing the brilliance of science to Liu Ying and Xu Ye.

No way.

Liu Ying listened with a look of death, opened her cherry-like mouth that drove countless men crazy, smiled, and silently told them: "You rude boy, you are such a jerk."

Xu Ye was sharp-eyed. He scratched his head and asked her, "Miss Liu, what are you talking about?"

"I know, I know! Miss Liu is talking about - physical values, shocking the soul."

He Zhizhou smiled innocently and said, "She is so shocked that she can't even speak. Miss Liu, if you are interested in this, I can tell you more! Science is very interesting, believe me!"

Liu Ying: Get out! ! !

She was wrong, completely wrong from the beginning.

She can seduce men and women, but these two people are neither men nor women.

They, the sword cultivators, belong to another unique and independent species, fools.

No one can attract a fool, just like a gorilla will never fall in love with a human.

Ningning has come back after exploring the way ahead. Pei Ji, who is standing beside her, is dressed in black and is tall and thin. Compared with the other two humanoid creatures who were staring at the lightning, he was simply elegant and otherworldly, like a god descending from heaven.

This guy's personality and strength are exactly the type she likes, not to mention that he has a face like that, it's hard not to be attracted to him.

Liu Ying decided not to bother with those two idiots anymore.

Pei Ji is her new prey.
