"elder brother!"
Before Shu Gaoming could react, the alertness on Xiang Sheng's face suddenly turned into surprise. He shouted and rushed towards Xiang Hongyu.
Xiang Hongyu was stunned for a moment and subconsciously pushed away Xiang Sheng who was rushing towards him.
Xiang Sheng staggered a few steps after being pushed, and then regained his footing. Suddenly, he burst into tears, "Brother, don't you recognize me?"
Xiang Hongyu heard the voice sound familiar, looked closely, and was suddenly startled, crying out in surprise: "Sheng'er! Why are you here?"
"Ren'er?"
Shu Gaoming looked him up and down, a look of surprise in his eyes: "Junior Brother Xiang, are you saying... this is your attendant sister, Xiang Sheng?"
After saying that, he suddenly reached out and grabbed Xiang Sheng's wrist.
Xiang Sheng couldn't break free, so he could only try his best to suppress the traces of the true energy in his body. He looked at Xiang Hongyu in panic, "Brother, what are you doing?"
"This is the true disciple, call him Brother Shu!"
Xiang Hongyu explained and tried to pull back Xiang Sheng's wrist, but he couldn't. He was anxious and begged for mercy: "Brother Shu, she is really my sister, my dear sister, please spare her!"
"Please spare me? Junior Brother Xiang, who do you think I am?"
A hint of displeasure flashed across Shu Gaoming's eyes. He used his consciousness to travel along Xiang Sheng's meridians and immediately saw that his meridians were damaged and there were multiple bleedings in his lungs. He was almost half dead.
Looking at the scars all over his meridians, he could vaguely discern traces of the circulation of his true energy. His eyes narrowed immediately and he asked, "Have you practiced cultivation?"
Xiang Hongyu was suddenly startled and looked at Xiang Sheng.
Master said that Xiang Sheng must practice to become a furnace cauldron. How did she practice?
Xiang Sheng nodded and responded obediently: "Reporting to Senior Brother Shu, I have indeed practiced a mental method called "The Book of Immortality". It was Miss Qinji, Brother Hongyu's attendant, who asked me to practice it."
After these words were spoken, Xiang Hongyu's expression relaxed slightly.
It turned out to be a false alarm.
The "Eternal Life Sutra" is the lowest level of the Chiyan Sect's mental method, and it is not an orthodox mental method for cultivation. It can only prolong life. No matter how hard one practices, one is still a mortal.
"The Sutra of Immortality..."
Shu Gaoming nodded slightly. He naturally knew this mental method.
This method was only circulated among the followers of the Blazing Flame Sect, and was not well-known, so it was unknown to outsiders. When the other party could call out the name of this mental method, his doubts were immediately dispelled.
Moreover, that "Lu family witch" can seriously injure Wan Lingmo. Even with the help of the Xuanwang City formation, to withstand Wan Lingmo's attack, one must at least be in the late stage of foundation building.
The meridians of this woman in front of me are damaged, and it is difficult to judge her cultivation level, but she is definitely not in the Foundation Establishment Stage.
In addition, as Yuan Zhong said, this little girl had nowhere to go after escaping from the sect, and desperately running to the territory of Lu State to seek refuge with Xiang Hongyu seemed to be her only choice.
Thinking of this, he smiled and asked again: "Have you been to the mountain? Is there anyone else up there?"
Xiang Sheng looked a little embarrassed when he heard this and was hesitant to answer.
Xiang Hongyu's face suddenly fell, "Sheng'er, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and reply to Senior Brother Shu's words."
Xiang Sheng could only nod submissively, a hint of shame etched in his words, "Reporting to Senior Brother, the mountain... the mountain is so cold that I felt like I was freezing halfway up the mountain. I couldn't stand it any longer, so I had to... go down the mountain."
At this point, a hint of joy appeared on her face again, "I didn't expect... to run into my brother."
Shu Gaoming suddenly realized that his doubts were no longer more than 10%. He had overlooked the fact that this little girl was a mortal.
Being so submissive is nothing like the cruel and merciless "Witch Lu".
It seems that I was overthinking it.
Thinking of this, he nodded with a smile and said, "Little girl, you've come all this way and found yourself here alive. You're truly lucky. If it were in Xuanwang City before, I'm afraid even if you had nine lives, it wouldn't be enough for you to lose."
After saying that, Shu Gaoming waved his sleeves and threw out a white cloud the size of a palm.
As soon as the cloud appeared, it swelled up against the wind and spread out to several feet high and wide in the blink of an eye.
"Brother, are you going back now?"
A disciple asked doubtfully, "Why don't you go to Xuanwang City to check? Maybe that evil woman of the Lu family is still there?"
“No need to go again.”
Shu Gaoming seemed to be in a good mood and patiently explained, "The dark energy on the mountaintop has condensed. Xuanwang City must have become a bitterly cold place, frozen for a hundred years. That evil woman of the Lu family must have left long ago."
As Shu Gaoming spoke, he glanced at Xiang Sheng, only to see the latter staring at the Baiyun magic weapon with shining eyes, as if he was not listening to the conversation at all.
He was suddenly speechless, and the last trace of doubt in his heart disappeared.
"I see."
The Blazing Flame Sect disciple suddenly realized and then said with regret: "What a pity that the Lu family's secret treasure is gone."
"What a pity?"
Shu Gaoming waved his sleeves and floated above the clouds. "The secret treasures of the Lu family's ancestral land can be taken by others, but our Chiyan Sect cannot. As long as the treasures are not snatched away by the Fengyue Sect, we will have completed our mission."
Everyone suddenly realized that the senior brother had never intended to go to the secret treasure, no wonder he had been watching from the sidelines.
"Brother, Fengyue Sect suffered a huge loss this time!"
Someone said jubilantly, "Not only did all of our disciples die in the city, but you also chased after them and broke Wan Lingmo's divine eyes. You really got a good stab at getting rid of your anger!"
"Those who do evil will eventually perish! Ever since Wan Lingmo stole my senior brother's eye-sight ability, he's been jumping for joy. Now, let's see how he can show off again!"
“…”
Xiang Hongyu helped Xiang Sheng jump onto the white cloud, put a thick piece of clothing on him, squatted down and reminded him: "This magic weapon is controlled by Brother Shu, and the flight is stable. If you don't move around, there will be no danger."
Xiang Sheng sat in the cloud and nodded nervously.
