Finally returning to Shushan, Ling Yunpo was in a happy mood.

Of course, the sword boxes containing the Qingping Sword and the Wanxiang Juexian Sword were hidden somewhere outside, and he asked A Jing to use illusion to block the secrets, and the coordinates were completely fixed.

When I return to Qingluo Peak with my senior sister, I will ask Ah Jing to use the teleportation technique to teleport the marked sword box back. In fact, if my senior sister was not accompanying me, there would be no need to go through so much trouble. I can just let Ah Jing teleport myself and the sword together.

A Jing's teleporting life can only teleport himself. Although it has great limitations, it is essentially the best proof that he is "the destined person".

Ling Yunpo continued to think about what to do next when he saw a sword light flying from a distance. It turned out to be the headmaster of Yujing.

The head of Yujing has also been very worried recently.

Before he became the headmaster of Mount Shu, he and Su Jian did not have much hatred, and he loved An Zhisu and Ling Yunpo more than he was wary of them.

However, the proposal to go out and rescue people was rejected by the Immortal Long Eyebrows. He had no room for objection and could only contact some spies in the Demon Cult privately to see if he could find the traces of the two people...

Then he saw Ling Yunpo and An Zhisu flying by below, talking and laughing.

Yujing Sect Master: ???

He quickly turned his sword around and landed in front of the two of them, saying in astonishment:

"you……"

"Master." Ling Yunpo clasped his fists first, and An Zhisu followed suit.

Then the headmaster of Yujing finally came to his senses and said calmly:

"When did you come back? How did you come back?"

"Reporting to the master," Ling Yunpo replied, "I just flew back on my sword."

Yujing Sect Leader: ...

Nonsense, who doesn't know that you came back on a flying sword? What I'm asking is how you got through the Demon Cult's defense line!

However, it is also known that these two people must have consumed a lot of energy to pass through the Demon Sect's heavy blockade, so the head of Yujing nodded and said:

"You should go back to the peak and rest first. A sect meeting will be held in the Patriarch Hall at noon tomorrow. All Jindan Zhenren must participate."

After saying this, he flew away on his sword with a flick of his sleeves.

Ling Yunpo and An Zhisu returned to Qingluo Peak. Senior Sister An went to the secret room of Qingluo Peak to report to the master first, while Ling Yunpo found a deserted place in the Taoist temple and asked A Jing to send the sword box over.

A few years ago, he had not yet made a name for himself in Qingluo Peak, and the monthly salary in the peak was insufficient, so he asked A Jing to send spirit stones from Qiu Changtian to support his training in Shushan.

In fact, if it wasn’t for the strict purpose of playing the characters and not allowing things from one character to be reused on another character… he would have mixed up all the resources of all the characters long ago.

When he opened the sword box, he saw the Wanxiang Jue Immortal Sword lying quietly inside, while the Qingping Sword was hanging in the air.

"What happened?" Ling Yunpo asked.

"He's playing dead." Qing Ping Sword sneered, "This sword has no sword spirit, so it's stubborn and doesn't know how to adapt."

"Master Sword Master, just lock it in the box and wait for a while. Sooner or later, the old thing will realize its current situation."

"That's great." Ling Yunpo let the Qingping Sword return, and left the Leizhi Sword to monitor the Juexian Sword, and then left quietly.

Although the two went directly back to Qingluo Peak, they ran into Master Yujing on the way, so the news spread quickly.

Duan Fenhai came to visit that evening and said that he had finally won first place in the competition among the Foundation Establishment Realm disciples and was promoted to the top of the Immortal Sword Ranking.

Although this was due to the fact that Ling Yunpo and An Zhisu gave up their positions after reaching the Jindan stage, it was still achieved through hard work. Therefore, Duan Fenhai was very proud of it and came to tell them that he had become the number one person below the Jindan stage.

After Duan Fenhai left, the next person to come was Lin Duanshan.

Lin Duanshan came this time because he heard that the two had not returned safely, so he asked about the situation and then exchanged information with the two.

The number of people coming from the Demon Cult this time is roughly the same as the last time they besieged Penglai, but the number of high-level monks is far greater, so it is more difficult to deal with them.

But Shushan prided itself on not being a rookie like Penglai, and therefore did not ask for help from the other two factions. It just calmly waited for the opportunity and waited for changes.

At present, it seems that the demons and ghosts have sent the most troops, followed by the mortals.

The Hell Path remained silent, and the remaining two paths had limited strength. Although they also took part, they could only block the southwest and northwest directions at most and could not pose any actual threat to Shushan.

Ling Yunpo also shared some information about the situation outside Shushan. He felt that the Demon Cult seemed to be aggressive but had no intention of attacking, which made him feel a little strange.

Lin Duanshan agreed. Now everyone in Shushan felt that the Demon Cult came here not to attack Shushan, but to exert pressure through attack.

As for the purpose of the Demon Cult's pressure, it is currently unclear, but...

"But there's a rumor recently that the Demon Cult lost some evil treasure, and they suspect it was stolen by Shushan, so they teamed up to come and ask for an explanation." Lin Duanshan sneered, "Let's not talk about what the treasure is. Since it's an evil treasure, we in Shushan will definitely not covet it. This is pure frame-up."

"Indeed." Ling Yunpo also echoed, "The Demon Cult has used this excuse more than once or twice. A few days ago, didn't the Shura Sect falsely accuse us Shushan people, saying that we stole some of their treasures? In my opinion, it's just an excuse to start a war. It's really despicable."

"Yes." Lin Duanshan thought for a moment and said, "But I heard that the things that Shura Dao lost last time and the 'evil treasure' that the Demon Cult claimed to have brought with them this time should not be the same thing..."

"It doesn't matter." Ling Yunpo interrupted him, "A fabricated excuse means whatever you want to say. Even if they say we stole the Nuwa Stone, the Fuxi Swords, or the Shennong Cauldrons, there is no need for us to delve into it."

"Yeah." Lin Duanshan sighed and said, "At present, the faction also wants to see what the Demon Cult is planning behind the scenes."

"But no matter what their real purpose is, at least they have mobilized such a large force, and it is impossible to resolve it without a fight."

"You guys should try to stay in shape during this period of time. You might be called out by the faction to fight."

This is useful information... Ling Yunpo thought to himself and said yes repeatedly.

After seeing Lin Duanshan off, Senior Sister An just came out of the secret room, and Ling Yunpo shared a lot of news with her.

Not long after, Guan Shanyue also came to visit and called out from outside:

"I heard that Junior Brother Ling and Senior Sister An have returned?"

"Senior Sister Guan, please come in." Ling Yunpo went out to welcome her in.

As soon as he entered the door, Guan Shanyue said with a smile:

"Junior Brother Ling, I would like to ask you a question."

"The 'evil treasure' that the demon cult mentioned, could it be that you have it in your hands?"
