What is the one-character name (16)
"If she hadn't overheard our conversation and said she wanted to leave, I would never have been willing to give it to you." Zhu Ming said lightly.
Wei Zhegu shook his head and stuck out his tongue at Lin Xian: "Don't be afraid. In fact, being able to contribute your life to the entire floating island is something that others can't even ask for."
"Once the experiment is successful, I will make your name a household name."
Lin Xian remained silent.
"Your disciple has quite a personality." Wei Zhegu turned and said to Zhu Ming.
Zhu Ming glanced at Lin Xian coldly, and suddenly saw the light beside her hand.
"You're going to use the spiritual power you've accumulated for so many days on this little brat?" Zhu Ming suddenly slapped the place where Li Zhaoyue was and sneered.
The fragile invisibility barrier quickly shattered, and Li Zhaoyue's figure slowly appeared before the three of them. Lin Xian, exhausted as he was, still stood before her.
This action infuriated Zhu Ming for some reason, and he turned and struck Li Zhaoyue with another palm strike. Zhu Ming's power was so profound that this palm strike might have killed Li Zhaoyue.
At the critical moment, it was Wei Zhegu who took the palm strike and curiously moved closer to Li Zhaoyue. When he wanted to take a closer look, he was pulled away by Zhu Ming.
"This is my apprentice. Why are you looking at him so closely?" Zhu Ming said unkindly.
Wei Zhegu was surprised and pointed at Li Zhaoyue and said, "Isn't this the disciple you sent to me for testing today?"
"No." Zhu Ming said coldly.
"Okay then." Wei Zhegu shrugged, dodged to the side, and quickly grabbed Lin Xian's wrist.
"What are you going to do!" Li Zhaoyue roared, about to punch Wei Zhegu in the face. He shook his head and flicked his fingertips, easily neutralizing Li Zhaoyue's attack. Looking at her indignant expression, he blinked innocently: "If you are cultivating immortality, you can't just rely on brute force."
"What are you going to do to me and my senior sister?" She looked at the two of them resentfully.
"It's not you, it's just your senior sister." Wei Zhe said, and at the same time exerted force on his wrist, and Lin Xian let out a painful groan.
"Senior Sister!" Li Zhaoyue wanted to pounce again, but this time Wei Zhegu was prepared and pulled Lin Xian away together.
"She is very talented and will surely become a talent if she continues to practice. Are you sure you want to hand her over to me?" Wei Zhegu asked Zhu Ming very seriously.
"It is precisely because of her high talent and pure spiritual power that the amnesia spell has no effect on her. It is her fate to die in your hands."
"What's more," Zhu Ming glanced at Li Zhaoyue calmly, "she actually had a chance to escape. Shouldn't you have understood this?"
Li Zhaoyue stood there frozen as if struck by lightning.
"Ayue, don't listen to their nonsense. I'm already dying, and I won't be able to survive even if I go out." Lin Xian smiled bitterly and looked at Li Zhaoyue gently.
"It's okay, Ayue, don't blame yourself."
Li Zhaoyue's eyes had long been blurred. She could not see Lin Xian's relieved smile, nor could she see the madness in Wei Zhegu's eyes. Her consciousness began to blur, and her memory began to fade.
"Don't remember those unpleasant memories."
Lin Xian's face disappeared in the sea of fire.
She remembered it! She remembered everything! Li Zhaoyue felt so uncomfortable that she wanted to cry, but she found herself already in tears. She had actually stayed peacefully by her enemy's side for decades, and she was even so foolish as to think that she had been loved and could actually feel at ease watching her enemy live comfortably.
Watching his enemy turn him into a powerless loser! The scalding tears dripped onto the ice coffin, which slowly faded, and Lin Xian's face gradually became blurred.
She didn't know what was happening and subconsciously wanted to grab something.
Bang--
Blue cotton wool covered his hands, and before his eyes there was nothing. The ice coffin, Lin Xian, everything was gone.
Only the coldness of her palms remained, reminding her of what she had seen.
She thought of something else.
Lin Xian is not only gifted in swordsmanship, but also possesses a pair of eyes that can see through all disguises. These eyes can not only identify demons and monsters, but also seal memories.
Li Zhaoyue is like this, he forgot everything and lived happily until today.
She closed her eyes tiredly, and recalled every detail of the past ten years with almost sadness, which seemed absurd.
It's just a mirage.
The sound of fighting came from farther away. She could sense Zhu Ming's sword energy, so she hurried in that direction.
The further he walked, the more uneasy Li Zhaoyue felt, as if he was about to see some unbearable truth, exactly the same feeling as when he accidentally entered that strange place that day.
Sure enough, she passed through the narrow rock passage and arrived at the room that day smoothly and unhindered.
The blood-red magic circle was faintly glowing. Two ice coffins were placed in the center of the formation, and figures were vaguely visible. She walked forward quickly and found two familiar faces.
Song Shiyu and Su Zi.
How come they are here?
Before he could even consider it, the ground shook again, and the red light emanating from the formation grew even stronger. Suddenly, a vortex appeared in the center, and Li Zhaoyue was sucked in without noticing.

There were still tiny frost marks on the ends of He Shuyu's hair. Although it was midsummer, her face was as pale as if she had just been pulled out of an ice cave. Xie Feng sat across from her, his expression unpleasant.
That day, Xie Feng found He Shuyu, nearly dead, in the bushes and brought her back to Lixiangyuan. She was covered in ice, and considering her previous experience of being frozen into an ice coffin, Xie Feng assumed Zhu Ming had found a way to break free of the coffin and wanted to send her to medical school. However, he was stopped.
He Shuyu held his hand and said weakly, "Don't let Zhu Ming know." Then he fainted.
Xie Feng was still pondering the meaning of her words when there was a knock on the door.
"I sense a chill around your room. Did something go wrong with your training?" Zhu Ming's voice rang out from outside the door. Xie Feng glanced at the unconscious He Shuyu in bed, gathered spiritual energy in his palm, and cast a formation to hide him. Then he stood up and opened the door.
Outside the door, Zhu Ming glanced at him indifferently, then looked inside the house.
"Thank you for your concern, Master. I was probably attacked by the cold air in the ice coffin that day and didn't have time to force it out," he said.
Zhu Ming withdrew her gaze and patted his shoulder. A strong spiritual power flowed from his shoulder throughout his body. Xie Feng stiffened and looked at her in confusion.
Zhu Ming failed to detect He Shuyu's spiritual power, so he turned and left.
"Master!" Xie Feng called her, "This morning's earthquake..."
"There's something wrong with the barrier. I've already contacted the other elders. Don't worry." Zhu Ming walked out. Xie Feng closed the door, his eyes filled with doubt.
Now he was certain that Zhu Ming had come to find He Shuyu. That pat just now seemed to be expelling the cold from him, but in fact, it was also detecting traces of spiritual power he had come into contact with. No wonder He Shuyu had refused to let him transfer spiritual power to him.
This matter is definitely not that simple.
"Elder Zhu might be doing something not very good," He Shuyu said to him. Xie Feng stared at the table in a daze, not knowing if he had heard anything.
He Shuyu continued, "I suspect my master made a deal with the man in black, and the bargaining chip was the divine artifact cone."
"Is there any basis for this?"
"Master has been in constant pain because of her sister's disappearance. If someone told her that she could see her sister again, do you think she would give up this opportunity?"
"But this is just your guess."
"Of course, you don't have to believe it." He Shuyu shrugged, "But I never felt the breath of Cone again."
"What does this have to do with my master's affairs?" Xie Feng said again.
"I escaped from that secret room, and I can clearly tell you that Elder Zhu wants to revive his evil magic. And the rumors about the Floating Island's fall are most likely true." He Shuyu stood up and pointed at the dim sky outside. "It's not a problem with the barrier at all."
"We've all learned barrier techniques, and we know the barrier of the floating island is indestructible. At the same time, if a single flaw is discovered and not repaired in time, the entire barrier will shatter. But look at those spirits floating in the air now. Is anyone watching? Are there any leaders in the world of immortal cultivation, those elders, watching?"
Xie Feng's heart began to tremble.
"Unless something more serious than the barrier breaking has occurred, but other than the floating island falling, what could be more important than the barrier? Or perhaps, the problem isn't with the barrier at all, but with the floating island itself."
After saying that, He Shuyu let out a long sigh and white-knitted his fingers at Xie Feng.
"Anything else?" he asked in a daze.
"Don't you want to go and see? I'd like to know if they can succeed."
Finally, Xie Feng and He Shuyu ran towards Qingfengyuan.
At this time, Cangyun City was in chaos, and the streets were densely packed with people. People looked at the dark masses of spirits in the sky in horror, at a loss as to what to do.
Lou Daoyan stood atop the tallest tower in the city, looking down at everyone. Lou Daoye stood behind him and said, "The one-month deadline is up. It looks like Elder Zhu is in danger."
Loudao Yan didn't say anything, but just looked coldly at the crowd below.
"Can we really lift the curse by doing this?" Lou Daoye murmured.
"As long as she comes, we won't have to endure this kind of pain anymore." Lou Daoyan said, "Just wait a little longer, it will be over soon."
Zheng family
Zheng Long followed behind Wei Zhegu and respectfully handed him a black object.
"This is the divine bone you requested. You promised me that you would resurrect my son and remove the Zheng family curse. You..."
"It will be fine, as long as that thing succeeds."

Zhu Ming tried to draw her Falling Mountain Sword, but Xu Xing pushed her back with a palm. The strength he displayed now was vastly different from before, even slightly superior to hers. Such skill was simply impossible for an eighteen-year-old. Zhu Ming swept her right hand across his neck, unleashing a talisman, dodged his kick, and distanced herself from him.
"You are not a survivor from that year, you are an outsider." Zhu Ming said.
Xu Xing spread his hands and acted innocently: "You only know this now?"
"Did Wei Zhe ask you to take revenge on me?" Zhu Ming talked to him to divert his attention while secretly reaching out to the Falling Mountain Sword.
No matter what the conspiracy behind this is, this boy must not be kept.
