In the past, Moon City was always bustling with activity and people coming and going due to the influence of the Flying Star Sect.
Today, for some reason, I walked for a long time but didn't see a single person.
Even when she and Wei made such a commotion just now, no one came out to watch the excitement.
How strange!
Could it be that the affairs within the sect have affected the mortals in Moon City?
Qi Yu sped up and rushed towards the Flying Star Sect.
Wei's cultivation was insufficient, and he chased after him like a dog.
The kind of dog where the owner drives a fast car in front, and the dog chases after it with all four paws sprinting behind.
Needless to say, they were exhausted, but the worst part was that they had to endure their master's ridicule from time to time.
Heartbreaking.
"Senior Brother Wei, are you sure you can handle this?"
Qi Yu stopped and looked back at Wei Suo, who was panting and covered in sweat.
Wei was so overwhelmed by her gaze that he almost burst into tears. He didn't dare to say that it was impossible for a Foundation Establishment cultivator to catch up with a Golden Core cultivator, so he could only meekly apologize.
"Senior Sister Yu, I will try to be as fast as possible."
Qi Yu looked at him, pursed her lips, grabbed his arm, and sped off at lightning speed, arriving at the Heavenly Ladder below the Flying Star Sect in no time.
She took out her disciple's jade pendant and placed it in a groove next to the Heavenly Ladder.
An object resembling an elevator descended from the sky and landed in front of the two people.
"Let's go. If you keep walking at this slow pace, the daylily will be cold by the time we get there," Qi Yu said irritably as she stepped onto the "elevator."
Wei had no choice but to follow along, expressing his deepest gratitude.
Even Wei Suo sensed something was wrong after entering the sect.
"Senior Sister Yu... why is there no one in the sect?" Wei asked hesitantly.
Qi Yu kept walking, her gaze sweeping over her surroundings.
Not only was there no one in Moon City, but there wasn't a soul in the sect either.
That's really strange.
However, Venerable Poyue said that the sect's situation was stable and there was no need to worry.
Therefore, she guessed that the residents of Moon City and the remaining disciples of the sect must have been moved to a safe place.
Qi Yu's expression turned somewhat serious.
Will her sudden return to the sect affect the elders' actions?
Qi Yu pondered for a moment, then walked towards the Sutra Repository.
With no disciples guarding her, she made her way as if she were in an empty place, heading straight to the top floor of the Sutra Repository.
As soon as you step into the fifth floor, the faint smoke from the oil lamp wafts up to your nose.
As always, a few dim oil lamps were lit on the top floor of the library, casting shadowy images on the scrolls.
Wei Suo watched with a look of horror as Qi Yu walked naturally up to the fifth floor of the Scripture Pavilion. He dared not go up rashly, and was also afraid that there might be danger in the sect coming for him.
There's not a single person left in the sect! You can tell they're in danger!
Why doesn't Yu Shengyan look scared at all!
Just as he was about to call out to Qi Yu, he suddenly felt a cool sensation on the back of his neck...
It felt like someone was behind him, blowing a breath on his neck.
Within his line of sight, long, thin, snake-like shadows appeared beside his own, gradually approaching, getting closer and closer...
"!!!"
Wei's pupils shrank to pinpoints in an instant, his whole body went cold, and cold sweat poured down his back.
He trembled and slowly turned his head to the side, but his eyes, in a self-deceptive manner, dared not turn away, still only looking at Qi Yu's back, his lips moving as if he wanted to say something.
"Danger! Danger!!!"
A roar erupted from his throat as he made a desperate gamble, summoning a fireball and throwing it beside him.
...
After a moment of silence, the fireball seemed to vanish into thin air, having served no purpose whatsoever.
The countless snake-like, twisting shadows did not move away; instead, they waved even more wildly.
Wei closed his eyes in despair, awaiting death.
Unexpectedly, he still couldn't escape death. At least he reminded Yu Shengyan before he died, so he did a good deed in the end.
Wei waited and waited, but he never received a death sentence.
He opened one eye suspiciously, only to see Yu Shengyan's lips tightly pursed, as if she was suppressing some emotion.
Their eyes met, and she finally couldn't help but burst out laughing.
At the same time, another slightly hoarse, elderly voice sounded behind him.
"Hahahahaha..."
"Hahahahahahahaha! Grandmaster, why did you tease him? Look how scared he is, he's probably having a revolving lantern-like reaction."
Wei turned around completely in disbelief.
An elderly man with a weathered face and a wicker cane stood behind him, smiling with a kind but undisguised schadenfreude.
"You, you, you, you..."
Wei looked up and down, but the pile of long snakes that had terrified him was nowhere to be seen!
He then looked at Qi Yu, who was laughing heartily, his face contorted in a comical grimace, "Senior Sister Yu, you..."
So, were these two conspiring to play a trick on him?!
Thinking of his earlier behavior, Wei dared not speak out in anger, his face turning bright red.
"Hey, don't overthink it. I was going to tell you this, but you reacted too quickly, thinking about heroic sacrifice. I had to let you show off a bit, right?" Qi Yu raised an eyebrow, a smile playing on his lips.
After saying that, she looked at the old man who was leaning on a rattan cane, nodded and said, "Greetings, Grandmaster."
Wei Suo then noticed that Qi Yu addressed the old man as "Grandmaster".
Grandmaster?
When did the Flying Star Sect have such a grandmaster? I've never seen him before.
Despite his doubts, he still obediently greeted them, "Greetings, Grandmaster."
This disrespectful old man, who deliberately frightened the younger generation, was none other than Fei Qingmu, the founder of the Flying Star Sect and its first sect leader.
Having already greeted everyone and found some fun, Fei Qingmu finally managed to alleviate his loneliness for a while.
"Child, what brings you to visit this old man? If I'm not mistaken, it should be the time of the sect's grand competition right now?"
Qi Yu's expression changed slightly.
She had originally planned to come back and see what was going on in the sect's forbidden area, but after thinking it over, she decided that to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, she needed to learn more information first.
At this time, there was no one in the sect, and Wei Suo did not seem to be someone who had information about the sect's forbidden area. So she thought she would try her luck and see if Fei Qingmu was still in the Scripture Pavilion.
Fei Qingmu was a sect leader, and the Demon King was imprisoned in the sect's forbidden area at the very beginning of Fei Xing Sect's founding. No one knew more than Fei Qingmu.
Unexpectedly, by sheer luck, she actually stumbled upon it.
But judging from Fei Qingmu's words, it seems like he knows nothing about what's happening in the sect.
The sect's situation has become so serious that all disciples, and even the residents of the nearby Moon City, have been evacuated. Why does Fei Qingmu still seem completely unaware of this?
Qi Yu asked tentatively, "Grandmaster, do you know about the sect's forbidden area?"
