Maple Valley is a public secluded cultivation place for the Xuan Yun Sect. Although it is called a valley, it is quite large.
After all, the Xuan Yun Sect has the reputation of being a great sect with a thousand-year history, and there must be at least a hundred experts cultivating there every year.
However, as the personal disciples of the previous sect leader, Qi Feng's status here is obviously high-level, and he is easy to find.
The two landed on the cliffside. Wild grass grew in front of the cave entrance, and outside the cave was a bottomless abyss. The depths were at the top of the clouds, and it was night. Qiao Yu couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.
"Master, what are we doing here?"
Lu Wei's words had a significant impact on his character; however, he did not believe that his master was such a person.
In his heart, Wen Jingge's image was always that of a savior.
Besides, Master and Grandmaster are both skilled in divination. Master must have been in trouble before Master came over.
"Read a book."
"Oh." Qiao Yu unfolded the book, revealing a series of circles he couldn't understand, which must have been talismans. "Master..."
He was in a dilemma. Given his ignorance, he figured he was going to upset his master again.
"can't read?"
"Mmm." He nodded.
"Can't you just cheat?" Wen Jingge leaned against the rock behind her, pinched the bridge of her nose, and thought that the hints should be enough!
"……ah?"
“Fifteen minutes.” She lifted her foot and placed it on Qiao Yu’s thigh. “I’ll kick you off before I even finish this.”
"……I."
Qiao Yu watched his master carefully as he slowly leaned his back off the stone wall until half of his body fell into the cave, indicating that he had fallen asleep.
So he became bolder.
In front of his master, he asked, "Senior, can you... can you help me?"
"..." Did he owe this master and disciple pair something in his past life?
Lu Wei was speechless for a moment. He had lived two lives and had witnessed all kinds of shamelessness in Wen Jingge.
Truly, I've never seen anything like this before!
“Array formation, talisman,” Lu Wei said in his mind, then suddenly paused, “You can’t read?”
"Yes, I still can't read. My senior brother said he would teach me, but he's been too busy lately and isn't on the peak."
Lu Wei took a deep breath. He understood Wen Jingge now. No wonder she dumped the mess on him. She probably had this in mind when she sealed him away.
"Senior, rest assured, after we find your remains, I will beg my master to allow you to become my half-master, and I will offer incense to you day and night and pray for your well-being."
Lu Wei: ...
I felt inexplicably moved, inexplicably amused, and inexplicably bittersweet...
What the hell is going on?!
As a former ruthless killer, his past experiences determined that he was destined not to be bound by emotions; in just a moment, all those emotions were suppressed.
"Why don't you ask someone who can read for help?" Lu Wei said in the same tone as Wen Jingge.
This is a feeling of disappointment and frustration.
This child is incredibly rigid.
"Is it...is it okay?" he asked uncertainly. "Won't it be too much trouble for them?"
"Fine!" Lu Wei conceded. "Looks like you prefer being scolded by your master."
"No, that's not it..."
"I don't care if you are or not." He retorted helplessly, "Here, here, seven array points, seven talismans, borrowing external force to draw in qi, gathering spiritual energy in the heart, transforming mystery into oneself, the artifact..."
"Senior, what's wrong?"
"Isn't this the coffin for raising corpses?" Lu Wei was a little confused. Suddenly, he thought of the location of the Seven Peaks. At first, he thought that the Seven Peaks and the Burning Heaven Sect were the key points of the array that suppressed that trial barrier, but now he suddenly realized that he was very wrong.
The array that Wen Jingge set up in the Spirit Pool had been set up by someone long ago.
The Seven Peaks, the Burning Heaven Gate, do not enshrine the jade tablets of the dead and the living within the Burning Heaven Gate, but rather Lingxiao Peak, the peak where Wen Jinge once resided.
It is said that a hundred years ago, Wen Jinge's junior brother had his foundation destroyed by a demonic cultivator, and he could no longer wield a sword. He was also ruined. Wen Jinge brought him to Lingxiao Peak. Later, the two peaks changed masters, and Wen Jinge had a big fight with her master, Bu Suanzi, because of her junior brother's matter.
Logically speaking, the one on Lingxiao Peak, who is supported by the power of all parties, shouldn't be reduced to a mere artifact cultivator relying on magical artifacts as he is now!
His health should have recovered long ago.
Lu Wei was shocked.
If he can understand it, there's no reason why Wen Jingge shouldn't.
Why is she coming to find Shan Hongxing at this time, and asking Qiao Yu to put this array behind her for such a short time? What does she want to do?
Emergency repairs?
"Are you done?" Wen Jingge lifted herself up and came out of the cave. "If you've memorized it, come in with me."
"you……"
Wen Jingge was lighting a lamp with a tinderbox when she noticed Qiao Yu still staring at her. Realizing that the gaze must be directed at Lu Wei, she asked, "Is there something on my face?"
"No." He shook his head helplessly. "You are very capable, there is no need for you to do such a thing."
"How can I do this if I'm not capable enough? Protect him. I'll go in and check first."
Which number?
"Wind and Thunder".
Lu Wei: ...
"Wan Zhang and Ling Xiao are both mine. You can go inside and stay there."
Lu Wei: ...
The seven cultivation sites are laid out exactly according to the locations of the seven peaks, making them easy to find.
However, to Wen Jingge's surprise, there was no one in Fenglei; she found Shan Hongxing in Wanzhang.
In addition, there are signs that someone has been in Lingxiao recently, while Fengleifeng is covered in dust, indicating that no one has entered for hundreds of years.
"..." Wen Jingge's lips twitched slightly. She turned off the light and stared into thought as she looked at the barrier in front of the door and the person meditating inside.
Could this Shan Hongxing be some childish brat who's been trying to get my attention but hasn't been able to?
No way! No way! Could he have a crush on me?
Lu Wei also felt that her worldview had been shattered.
As for Qiao Yu, he looked at the people inside with a puzzled expression. He didn't understand why his senior uncle Shan would appear at his master's cultivation place. Weren't they enemies?
"Cough cough cough..." The person inside spat out a mouthful of blood.
Wen Jingge tensed up reflexively and put an invisibility talisman on herself and Qiao Yu, and the two of them stood casually in front of the barrier.
"Why can she do it, but I can't?"
His gaze was piercing, with tears welling in his eyes. The dark vortex of his gaze seemed to draw people into the distance.
"Master! Why?" he roared in resentment, tears of blood streaming from his eyes. "Why can she do it, but I can't? She's your disciple, but so am I? Divine retribution? Heh heh, divine retribution..."
He swept his hand across the ground, staggered to his feet, and shattered a pile of pebbles with a wave of his hand. "Why? Wen Jingge was the youngest one! She's dead."
Wen Jingge, who was still alive, frowned. Lu Wei looked at Wen Jingge's head again. Was she alive because of that lump of something?
"You shouldn't have brought me into the mountains, Master." He pointed to the stone statues carved on the wall of the secret chamber. "What saints, what immortals, what gods? Heh heh heh, they're nothing but lackeys, lackeys!"
"Since it wants to punish, let it punish. Little Five, why Little Five? First Little Five, then Little Seven, isn't that enough for you? It's still not enough!"
