"A mere second-rank!" the old man sneered. "The Xuanmen sect is becoming increasingly pathetic these days."
The old man's technique was very fast, and his movements were like a ghost. He had only seen this kind of speed from one other person, and he had not yet been able to find that person.
"Fine, fine! I'll grant you a complete corpse!"
The two disciples, Lu Feiyu and Lan Yezhou, wanted to come and help, but before they could even step onto the field, the old man locked them in place. Not only that, Shan Hongxing was even more embarrassed to deal with the situation.
"Master! Master! This disciple is willing to die with Master!" Lu Feiyu gritted her teeth; she simply couldn't bear to see her master get hurt for her sake.
Upon hearing this, the old man couldn't help but glance at her again. "Little girl, come here. I'll make you move now. If you commit suicide, I'll make your master's death easier."
Lan Yezhou opened his mouth as if to say something, but said nothing.
“Boy, you also want to share your master’s burdens? Sure! I’ll take any offer, as long as I can have a good meal.”
Blue Leaf Boat: ...
"Release them."
"You're trying to negotiate with me? You were still in your mother's womb when I was alive. I've never had any rules in my eyes."
"Release my master."
"Little girl, don't spout nonsense!"
"If you kill my master, my uncle will definitely avenge him!"
Lu Feiyu blushed slightly. She really didn't want to say that name. The only grievance she suffered in the Xuan Yun Sect came from that person. However, the only person she could think of who could save her master was that person.
"Uncle-Master?" The old man lifted Shan Hongxing up and smiled. "What kind of ability is that? Your master is a second-rank expert, so is that person a genius?"
"Even the demons are afraid of her." Lu Feiyu wasn't sure herself.
She was, after all, a naive young girl. She had intended to provoke the old man so that he would spare them, but instead she went and caused trouble for the tall man.
Now, when the old man asked, she could only bite the bullet and answer, "I used to be a genius, but now, when I came down the mountain, I was only a ninth-grade student."
"Ninth rank?" The old man abandoned Shan Hongxing, his hand gripping her neck. "Ninth rank can save you? Hahahaha, don't be ridiculous."
"Yes, it was a ninth-rank. I'm afraid it's no longer a rank, but when it was a ninth-rank, it could defeat my master." Lan Yezhou said this with great shame, then his gaze drifted back to his master. Shan Hongxing seemed to be lost in thought.
“What this boy said is true.”
“You really can’t beat her.” Shan Hongxing’s words came from the bottom of his heart. He forced a bitter smile and raised his sword again. “I was only able to reach the second rank because of her. Before, I could open the first rank from the third rank. I was so proud of myself. Hehehehe... I was the one making a fool of myself.”
"Master! You're not joking! Even if Martial Aunt is a laughing stock, it's because she brought it on herself!" Lu Feiyu exclaimed anxiously. "Master has never wronged her! On the contrary, she's always causing trouble for Master!"
"Senior Sister..." Lan Yezhou said weakly, "This is at least a matter for our sect, and outsiders are still here..."
The old man was taken aback. "Today, I will not eat you. What is the name of the person you are talking about?"
"Wen Jingge, Peak Master of the Ten Thousand Zhang Peak of the Xuan Yun Sect!"
"What a wicked girl," the old man muttered.
It disappeared in an instant.
"Master...you're still angry with me, aren't you?"
At this point, it had been ten days since they met the old man. Throughout the journey, Shan Hongxing had remained silent, and the relationship between the two disciples had visibly reached a freezing point.
Many times, Lan Yezhou wanted to say something but didn't dare. He was afraid to step forward and offend someone.
"Don't look at me!" Yuan Qingling frowned. The closer he got to Qianyan Kingdom, the more chaotic his mind became. "I wasn't there that day. I've only just managed to regain my eighth-rank cultivation. If I go there, I'll just be throwing my life away. You have to forgive my immorality."
Lan Yezhou was depressed for a while. In fact, this was the only person on the road who could joke with him. "Are all the people on Wanzhang Peak this shameless?"
"What else do I need a face for if I already have one?"
Blue Leaf Boat: ...
"What if I give it to you?"
"You think I'll just take it because you give it to me? What do you take me for? A beggar?!"
"..."
"If I accept it, wouldn't that make me shameless?"
Lu Feiyu's face turned even redder, and she angrily threw a pebble at her, "Shut up! It's so noisy!"
"Lu Feiyu! You've passed!" Shan Hongxing said his first words in ten days. He was a bit impulsive, but it was enough to move Lu Feiyu.
"Master, I... I didn't want it to turn out this way back then. I... I was wrong, Master... If we hadn't said that back then, we probably wouldn't have survived!"
"What if he really goes to find your martial uncle?"
Lu Feiyu was speechless for a while, then muttered, "Well, we still have to find it! Besides, Uncle-Master, with such great abilities, you must be smarter than me and be able to defeat that old man."
"Let's hurry on our way! After leaving the territory of Xuan Yun Sect, there are fewer and fewer people along the way. Something's wrong. It's as if we've been invaded by a large number of demons."
"oh."
"Get to Qianyan quickly, and I'll be able to put my mind at ease."
"Senior Uncle, let me talk to Jinwu!" Although Jinwu had been trying to escape from them, Yuan Qingling was there after all, so it had no choice but to carry them away.
However, they were stopped shortly afterward.
The person who stopped them was none other than Qiao Yu.
"Disciple greets Senior Uncle." Qiao Yu pursed her lips.
That day, he and Bei Moying went out to ask someone about the situation in Qianyan City, but they never expected that when they turned around, the city had completely disappeared.
The people no longer recognized the kingdom of Qianyan; it was as if the country had been erased from their memories overnight.
Qiao Yu told Shan Hongxing what had happened before she had time to exchange pleasantries: "Uncle-Master, what brings you here?"
"The demons have invaded. Prepare for the trial tournament and go down the mountain to find your master."
“Um…” Bei Moying coughed at the right moment to indicate his identity, “I didn’t mean to eavesdrop, but if I may ask, are you really his senior master?”
"And who are you?" Yuan Qingling was dragged back several steps by Jinwu. He asked impatiently, "Stop pulling me like that."
"Oh, so your master went to live with Wen Jingge after he died!"
"I'm not!" the Golden Crow protested. "You bad guy, stay away from me! You've almost plucked all my feathers off! Let me tell you! I'm not afraid of you anymore! Even if you pluck them all off, they'll grow back!"
Yuan Qingling had a bit of a headache: "So, you two know each other?"
“I know it! After all, it’s an old Taoist’s creation. A three-legged golden crow is quite rare!” Bei Moying spread his wings and flew into the sky. “Then, Uncle-Master, I have fulfilled my responsibility of entrusting the orphan to you. I will now entrust Wen Jingge’s second disciple to you.”
Lan Yezhou: "He, he, he is a demon..."
"Isn't the demon abnormal? He had another one in his body before, wait, where did it go?"
"Yes! He's a demon, after all. It's beneath him to take care of children with you Xuan Masters!"
