"It's good that I met Senior Brother Feng An."

Hearing the voice, Kong Ju turned around, looked at the entrance of the passage, smiled, and prepared to speak immediately.

The voice just reached his throat, but suddenly stopped.

He felt that for the sake of safety, it would be better not to speak, for fear that anyone other than Feng An might hear him.

He simply opened the restrictions of the Red Cloud Formation and allowed Feng An to walk in on his own.

At the door, Feng An had just finished speaking.

Then, the roar of the formation was heard coming from the cave.

Feng An immediately showed a look of suspicion, but quickly put the thought aside and walked in.

He thought that Shangguan Yuzhou was in a bad mood and didn't want to talk. He was not suspicious, nor was he afraid of encountering danger in the cave.

Now all the outer sect members know that this is Shangguan Yuzhou’s cave. No one dares to enter except Shangguan Yuzhou himself.

Strangely enough, Feng An and Kong Ju have known each other for a long time.

This is the first time I’ve entered this cave.

When I had something to do, I basically went to Feng An's residence, which was elegant.

Therefore, as soon as he entered the cave, Feng An was attracted by the spiritual spring gushing out in the center of the cave, and he showed an envious look.

Before he could speak, his walking steps suddenly stopped.

He looked at the strange man standing in the cave with a wary look.

"Who are you? You are so brave that you dare to break into Junior Brother Shangguan's cave!"

Kong Ju stared blankly at Feng An's cowardly appearance. After a moment, he realized the reason and showed a slightly teasing expression.

"Brother Feng, I am your beloved relative."

"This voice!" Hearing the familiar voice, Feng An's guarded expression froze, his eyes full of disbelief.

He stared at Kong Ju's current appearance, but his body did not relax at all.

Feng An, who is used to the dangers of the outside world, is more cautious than most disciples.

Kong Ju stopped joking with him, knowing that if he didn't show his true identity, Feng An would never be convinced by his personality.

In front of Feng An, he tore off the disguise.

Revealing his pale boyish face.

"Now you believe it, Brother Feng, how come you are still so...steady in the sect?"

"Junior Brother Kong Ju, it's really you!" All of Feng An's vigilance disappeared as Kong Ju's face beneath the mask was revealed.

He walked up to Kong Ju with deep affection and looked him up and down.

Then he showed his genuine joy: "I knew you wouldn't die so easily. Shuang Yuetan even came back alive. It's just a competition. How could it possibly cost you your life?"

Kong Ju had heard from Huangfu Ying that the news of his death was now widely spread among the outer sect, so he was not surprised by Feng An's words. He just smiled without comment.

"Something went wrong. Actually, I just woke up not long ago."

"But Senior Brother Feng should not tell anyone other than Senior Brother Yu Shangguan about my safe return, especially Junior Sister Zhou."

Who is Feng An? He is one of the few outer disciples of Cangwu Sect who can see the situation clearly.

After being slightly surprised, he instantly understood the meaning of Kong Ju's words.

He nodded solemnly and replied, "It should be so."

When the two met, there was naturally some sighing.

Feng An talked about the recent changes in the Cangwu sect and the current turbulent situation in Wudong. With the appearance of Yuan Xiao, geniuses from countless sects have emerged.

The battle for the Hidden Dragon List was fierce.

He also talked about the purpose of his trip here to find Shangguan Yuzhou, which was actually to tell him the latest news he had found out about Kong Ju.

Of course, there is no need to announce this news.

These were all information released by the inner sect to confuse people. Kong Ju was standing in front of him, and was more reliable than any other information.

"Junior Brother Kong, are you going out like this?" Feng An saw Kong Ju putting away the Golden Furnace just now and keenly realized where he might go next.

"Go out and travel. I've been practicing for so many years, but I haven't been able to take a good look at Wudong." Kong Ju had no intention of hiding anything. Feng An was the person he trusted most in the entire outer sect, except for Shangguan Yuzhou.

Moreover, his ability to change his appearance and hide his aura can be used at any time.

Don't worry too much about being targeted.

"Okay." Feng An nodded and was about to say something about taking care.

Suddenly, his expression froze and his nostrils twitched slightly, as if he smelled something, and his face changed drastically.

"What's wrong, Senior Brother Feng?" Feng An's expression change did not escape Kong Qi's eyes, and he cast an inquiring look at the former.

The latter did not respond immediately, but fixed his eyes on an area in the cave.

Kong Ju followed the direction his eyes were looking and saw that Feng An was looking at the stone bed in the cave.

Feng An walked to the stone bed with a solemn expression, crawled down, and after groping under the stone bed for a while, he picked up a small bunch of red hair that looked like some animal hair.

Kong Ju could clearly see the complex expression of resentment and anger that was difficult to conceal on Feng An's face when he saw the hair again.

It seemed that this red-haired guy brought back some unpleasant memories.

Although Kong Ju has been staying in Lingquan Cave with Shangguan Yuzhou for almost two years.

I really didn't know about the existence of this tuft of hair, and even if I knew about it, I probably wouldn't pay much attention to it.

Kong Ju naturally didn't understand why Feng An behaved like this. He looked away from the red hair and asked Feng An in confusion, "What's wrong with this hair, Senior Brother Feng?"

Feng An did not answer directly, but asked in a firm tone: "This thing was not brought back by Junior Brothers Kong and Shangguan, right?"

"Of course not!" Kong Ju had been out of the Cangwu sect only a few times, and Shangguan Yuzhou was almost the same.

He had memories of every time the two of them went out, and it definitely had nothing to do with this hair.

After taking a break to think, Kong Ju guessed, "It might have been left by Chu Jianghe. This was originally Chu Jianghe's cave."

"The Piaoyu Sword Chu Jianghe who disappeared for more than three years?" Feng An knew Chu Jianghe's strength very well. He showed a sympathetic expression and said in a firm tone: "I roughly know where he went."

"According to the time, I'm afraid he has been dead for more than three years."

Feng An's previous complicated expression was full of anger at the memories, coupled with his tone that was so certain about Chu Jianghe's whereabouts.

This made Kong Jue guess, and he immediately asked softly, "Could Chu Jianghe's whereabouts be related to what happened to Senior Brother Feng back then?"

How could Kong Ju forget how old and frail Feng An looked when he first met him? He looked a lot younger now, and it was just because he took the Soul-Enhancing Pill that he felt like a dead tree coming back to life.

Feng An once said that he became such a horrible person because he chose the wrong path.

He didn't want to talk about it before, and Kong Ju didn't dare to ask more.

Now that things have come to this, he finally said something extra.

As he spoke, Feng An's eyes gradually became distant, and he began to recall the past that he didn't want to look back on.

At that time, he had just broken through the sixth level of Yanglun and was young, vigorous and full of energy.

I accidentally learned a piece of news that was spread to the outer sect by someone unknown.

It is said that a burial site of a cultivator at the Ascension Wheel Realm has been discovered in Wudong, and it contains the wealth and inheritance that cultivator accumulated throughout his life.

Who wouldn't want such an opportunity? Feng An was not as cautious as he is now. He was young and frivolous, and was immediately tempted. Together with a few fellow disciples, he followed the clues and searched for it.

Finally, the burial place of the so-called Shenglun monk was found.

But what greeted them in the burial ground was not inheritance or wealth, but a terrifying murderous intent.

One after another, his fellow disciples fell in front of him, ambushed by some unknown monster using unknown means.

At that time, Feng An didn't even see the appearance of the thing clearly. In a trance, he only saw the red hair left on the corpses of his fellow disciples.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

As for Feng An, he also lost consciousness after being attacked by the monster.

When he woke up again, he had become what he is now, with most of his blood and essence sucked out, and he was on the verge of death.

If it weren't for the special skills he practiced and the abundant blood and energy, any other cultivator would have died too.

Even so, his cultivation had fallen to the fourth level of Yanglun, and he had not made any progress in nearly twenty years.

"I have reported this matter to the sect, and the Law Enforcement Hall has also sent people to check that place, but they didn't find any clues."

"It seems that after killing so many of us, it fled from that place."

"Obviously, that monster is intelligent and extremely cautious. He knew that he would be punished for killing so many sect disciples, so he left early."

"Over the years, I have been secretly tracking down clues about it, but I didn't expect it to appear again."

Listening to Feng An's slow narration of past events, Kong Ju rubbed his chin gently with his hand. He sensed some other clues from Feng An's words.

He went to the burial site after hearing the news secretly transmitted to the outer sect of Cangwu Sect.

So what about Chu Jianghe? Where did he get the information?

Was it the same news, the same method, that tricked him in? However, when I think of what Feng An said, that the monster had a high level of intelligence, it all makes sense.

But Kong Jue always felt that something was wrong.

Without waiting for him to think about it.

Deep in his sea of ​​consciousness, new words suddenly appeared on the cloud-patterned stele that had been silent for a long time.

'Find the burial site of the ancestors and gain +6 chance points'

A new opportunity clue appeared! Feeling the changes in the cloud pattern monument, Kong Ju was obviously stunned for a moment.

Suddenly he looked at the tuft of red hair in Feng An's hand.

A look of understanding emerged on his face, and he thought secretly: "It turns out that the opportunity regarding Chu Jianghe has not ended. Chu Jianghe's worth and this spiritual spring are not the real opportunities of this opportunity clue."

"The real opportunity is the burial place of that Ascension Realm monk!"

"This opportunity clue is just waiting for the right time for a turning point."

And Feng An is the turning point of that chance clue.

Just like Kong Ju stayed in the library for two years before he got the opportunity to meet Chu Jianghe from Shangguan Yuzhou.

Also, the rumor was not a rumor, but a real opportunity. It was just that Feng An and Chu Jianghe did not have the strength to take advantage of the opportunity.

Going there rashly led to tragedy.

When he thought of this, Kong Ju's heart burned with anger.

My current strength is much stronger than Chu Jianghe and Feng An at that time.

After obtaining his three premium Qi-nourishing Pills, Feng An also leaped into the seventh level of Qi-nourishing Wheel.

If the two of them go there, the probability of getting the opportunity is very high.

In addition, Kong Ju also discovered some important information.

That is, all the cultivators who were killed by that opportunity. From Feng An’s narration, it can be seen that none of them exceeded the sixth level of Yanglun.

No matter whether it was Feng An, his fellow disciples who went there with him, or Chu Jianghe, their highest level of cultivation was only the sixth level of Yanglun.

In other words, he has not reached the seventh level of Yanglun.

This proved that the monster was quite intelligent and cautiously believed that it had no chance of winning against a cultivator above the seventh level of Yanglun.

As for Kong Ju, even Huangfu Wuqin said that he had the potential to be listed on the Potential Dragon List.

I can’t say that this time, I will catch the target easily, but I can also say that there will be no danger to one’s life.

When he thought of this, Kong Ju immediately made a decision and said to Feng An seriously, "Brother Feng, do you dare to go with me again?"

Feng An was slightly stunned, and a smile appeared on his face.

If he were alone, he would definitely not have the courage to go again, even though he was already a cultivator at the seventh level of Yanglun.

If there was a conophora japonica following, it would be completely different.

The young man in front of him, whom he had watched grow up step by step, was a genius who had tied with the immortal seedling of Cuijinmen a year ago.

The current strength is even more unfathomable.

"Why not!" Feng An responded decisively.

This trip was a way to put an end to what happened to him back then.

Over the years, that incident has become a knot in his heart. If he doesn't get rid of this inner demon, it will affect his future cultivation.

After an incense stick of time, Kong Ju, who was ready for everything, and Feng An walked out of the Cangwu Sect together and headed towards the direction where Feng An had encountered the disaster that year.

Half a day later, the two left.

Shangguan Yuzhou returned to the cave.

I saw the bottle of Qi-nourishing pill placed next to the spiritual spring.

The young man was stunned at first, then he guessed something and smiled heartily. His laughter shook the cave and caused a lot of smoke and dust to fall.

"I knew you wouldn't die."

One day later, Shangguan Yuzhou, who had stayed in Cangwu Sect for a year without leaving the sect, carried his Qingfeng on his back and left Cangwu Sect.

He wants to compete for the Hidden Dragon List.

With the sword-wielding Shangguan Yuzhou, the best swordsman of the younger generation of Cangwu sect, leaving the sect, the already turbulent world of Wudong cultivation is bound to become even more turbulent.

Of course, this is all a story for later.
