In the majestic and magnificent Yaochi Hall, Chu Qingxian was teaching Mu Yanran how to practice with a serious look on her face. Her voice was crisp and pleasant, and every word was clearly audible: "On the path of practice, you need to have no distractions and concentrate fully." Mu Yanran sat on the cushion obediently, with his eyes closed, quietly comprehending the mystery.
At this moment, a chaotic sound of footsteps came from outside the hall, interrupting the silence. Mu Yanran opened her eyes curiously, but suddenly heard a muffled "bang" sound in her ears, followed by a sharp pain.
"Ouch! It hurts!" Mu Yanran covered her head and screamed like a pig being slaughtered. Chu Qingxian sighed helplessly and said, "You deserve to be beaten for distracting me! When practicing, you must not be disturbed by external things and must feel with your heart." After that, she was ready to start a long speech again.
However, just as she was talking endlessly, Su Yue's voice suddenly rang out: "Sect Master, Sect Master Leng is back!" Upon hearing this news, Chu Qingxian suddenly lost her composure, and without saying a word, she walked out of the hall to greet them. Only Mu Yanran was left there, rubbing her little head pitifully, crying and complaining aggrievedly: "No way, Sect Master, you still said that I was impetuous..." After complaining, she hurriedly followed Chu Qingxian's footsteps.
Chu Qingxian walked out of the palace with great joy, and immediately saw Leng Qingqiu and Qingge. She excitedly held their hands and asked with concern: "Qingqiu, Qingge, you are finally back!" As she spoke, she looked at the two of them carefully and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Oh, you have become more and more beautiful recently! Mm-m-m, not bad! But where are Ning'er and Qian'er? Why can't I see them?"
Leng Qingqiu and the other person responded with a smile, but when they heard the second half of the sentence, an expression of dejection could hardly be concealed on their faces.
Chu Qingxian keenly noticed the difference between the two and knew something unpleasant must have happened. So she hurriedly took the two into the house to talk in detail.
After entering the hall, Leng Qingqiu turned his gaze to Mu Yanran standing beside him.
"Well, Yan Ran, you're not bad. I haven't seen you for just a few months, but your strength has improved to the middle stage of the Golden Core."
Mu Yanran chuckled and said shyly, "It's just the Patriarch's idea."
Leng Qingqiu just smiled slightly and didn't say much, then he turned to look at Chu Qingxian and began to tell what had happened during this period of time. After listening to it, the three people from Yao Chi all showed embarrassment on their faces, especially Chu Qingxian, who angrily slapped the table with his hand and actually smashed the table plaque into pieces.
"This is really too much! This Nangong Luoyu not only injured Qian'er, but also caused my grandson to suffer so much. If I don't tear her into pieces, how can I have the face to take on the position of Yao Chi Sect Master!"
After hearing the news, everyone looked embarrassed and felt extremely heavy-hearted. Xiao Ning was not only the most important relative to them, but also a spiritual pillar. No one wanted to see such a thing happen. Leng Qingqiu sighed slightly and said, "This matter is not as simple as imagined. There may be some conspiracy of the demons. My brother-in-law has invited his and Nangong Luoyu's master, Li Changsheng Li Xianshi, to come. We came here this time to borrow the Soul-Separation Bell."
Chu Qingxian nodded to show her understanding. She knew that it was impossible for Nangong Luoyu to design such a perfect plan alone. There must be other people helping him. So she agreed to Leng Qingqiu's request without hesitation and said, "No problem, I will go with you this time. Nangong Luoyu and Piaomiao Xianzong must give me Yao Chi an explanation for this matter! Otherwise, even if his ancestor comes forward, I will not give in!"
Everyone nodded in agreement. They knew that this was not just Xiao Ning's problem, it might very well involve the safety of the human race, so they had to take it seriously.
On the other side, Xiao Ding, Bai Ziyun and Li Changsheng relied on the location left on Xiao Ning to track him to the edge of a mountain. As the distance got closer, the induction became stronger.
The three of them soon arrived at a cave halfway up the mountain. It was dark and damp, filled with a foul smell, and did not look like a place where humans could live at all.
Xiao Ding and others walked into the cave carefully, observing the surroundings vigilantly. Suddenly, Bai Ziyun found a hidden cave entrance, which was very narrow and could only accommodate one person. He immediately called Xiao Ding and Li Changsheng and began to observe the cave entrance carefully.
Xiao Ding said in a deep voice: "I'll go in and take a look first. Master and Ziyun, follow me closely."
Bai Ziyun and Li Changsheng nodded in agreement. Then Xiao Ding went into the cave first, followed by the other two.
The three of them walked slowly along the narrow and claustrophobic path. The stone pavement under their feet seemed to have no end, and every step was accompanied by a heavy echo. After walking for an unknown period of time, the front suddenly opened up, and what came into view was an extremely empty room.
The room was beautifully decorated, with gorgeous silk hanging on the walls and soft carpets on the floor, just like a beautiful wedding room. However, it was empty and the silence made people feel a little chilly.
Xiao Ding felt the breath around him and said with a gloomy face: "Yes, it's Ning'er's breath! But where are they?" His voice echoed in the empty room, adding a bit of tension to the atmosphere.
Bai Ziyun looked at him, a hint of anxiety in her eyes, "Isn't he coming back? Should we just sit and wait?" Her voice trembled slightly, as if she was full of worry about what was about to happen.
Li Changsheng nodded and said, "That's a good idea." His expression was serious and his eyes were firm, as if he was ready to deal with everything.
