Chapter 331 Returning to the Tomb to See Wu Ji
What is Lingxiang thinking about?
After learning about the effectiveness of Hanyu Pills, Long Qi has been thinking about it for more than two years, but he still can't figure out why Lingxiang did this.
“Bang!”
Just as Long Qi was lost in thought, a ruler hit the back of his hand, causing him to grimace in pain.
The person who beat him was an old man with long eyebrows, white hair and beard, but he looked energetic.
"Distracted again!" The old man, dressed in a tattered gray robe, walked back and forth in front of Long Qi, who was standing still, with his hands behind his back. "Relax, calm, still, empty! Relax, calm, still, empty! Is it that difficult? It's a pity..."
The deep rebuke made Long Sheng, who was outside the stone chamber, shrink his neck.
Ever since Long Sheng sent Maidong back to Yuanqing last time, he never expected that the girl's master was actually the friend to whom he had entrusted the sword techniques.
Long Sheng couldn't help but laugh. How could there be such a coincidence in the world?
When the Long family was in trouble, Long Sheng was rescued by Fu Yin after he escaped. Many years later, he became his disciple. Fate is really amazing.
But when he thought of the girl who was always smiling, Long Sheng frowned again.
Long Sheng refused to believe that Mai Dong would betray his master, but the facts were right in front of him and could not be refuted.
"Sigh..." Long Sheng couldn't help but sigh.
After sending Maidong back to Yuanqing, he rested for a short while before going to Manzhou alone, intending to investigate the movements of the demon clan.
Who knew that as soon as Fang arrived in the Barbarian Continent, the demons disappeared without a trace, as if they had never appeared in the world.
Although the demons had disappeared, Long Sheng still managed to find out some information.
The demons have occupied the Barbarian Continent for many years, and most of the tribes in the Barbarian Continent are under their control. Their power is difficult to estimate, and only a few tribes are still resisting stubbornly.
The demons were extremely cruel to these tribes. If they refused to submit, their entire clan, regardless of age, would be annihilated. This was extremely brutal.
Under such pressure, those tribes had no choice but to submit. Although they made some moves in private, they were unable to shake the status of the demons at all.
Among them is the Yuerong tribe, whose khan is held hostage by the demons. One of their sons escaped from the Middle-earth and joined the Daoist sect. It is said that he returned some time ago, but his whereabouts are unknown after the demons disappeared.
Now that the tribes of the Barbarian Continent are in chaos, the threat to the Central Plains has been reduced a lot. Some tribes have even sent envoys to the Celestial Empire to seek refuge.
Since the demons have disappeared and there is nothing more to find out in Manzhou, Long Sheng plans to return to Yuanqing first and then deal with the aftermath. However, on the way, he hears rumors about Yuanqing's suffering.
This frightened Long Sheng, and he rushed to Yuanqing without stopping. When he arrived, he saw the devastation everywhere.
True Man Lieyang was seriously injured and died soon after. His soul passed away. A group of disciples brought him back to the sect, but no one knew what the future of the Tai Shang Sect would be.
Yuanqing lost Elder Zhaoming, but strangely, the remaining disciples seemed to be fine.
However, Banxia, who had met him once before, had lost her soul. However, her body was not dead, as if it was protected by the curse on her body.
It is said that it was a spell bestowed by the ancient god Yun Zhongjun, who once said that it would save his life. I think this was the curse that saved him.
Master Donghui said that the threads scattered from the Bagua plate must be the scattered soul of Banxia. Since there were traces, the girl could still be saved. I heard that two of Yuanqing's disciples had already gone down the mountain to search for her.
When Long Sheng found Long Qi, he had already fallen into a coma, but Master Fuyin said that he was fine and had only some minor injuries.
Everyone found it strange. Long Qi had clearly been dealt a heavy blow by the Demon King, yet he only sustained minor injuries. Later, they learned that it was the Jade Pill in his body that saved Long Qi's life.
When the Qi and meridians become stagnant, the body will naturally no longer suffer too much damage from heavy injuries.
Long Sheng remembered that after Long Qi woke up, he was depressed for quite some time. He lay in bed without any appetite, just staring blankly and motionless. He was getting weaker and weaker, but one day he was dragged out of the room by Rendong.
Honeysuckle dragged Long Qi into the mountains and threw him to the ground, looking angry at him for not fighting back.
Just when Long Sheng was worried about Long Qi's health and wanted to argue with Ren Dong, he heard Ren Dong yelling at Long Qi:
"Who are you trying to show off to with this desperate look on your face? You've been following Lingxiang for so long, and now all you've learned is to give up on yourself?"
Honeysuckle said, pointing around.
"Look around you. Every mountain in the sect has rocks that are jagged and sharp. Only the rocks on Qingwei Peak are smooth and round. Do you know why?"
When he heard Qingwei Peak, Long Qi's eyes flashed. He felt like he hadn't been there for a long time.
Seeing Long Qi's reaction, Ren Dong quickly said, "I finally see you clearly! You don't understand Lingxiang at all!"
Hearing this, Long Qi looked up at Rendong.
Yes, he really didn't understand Lingxiang. He didn't know what she was thinking, nor did he know what she was planning. But even if he knew, what could he do with his current situation?
Long Qi's eyes dimmed again.
"That girl has residual spiritual roots! The reason why the rocks on Qingwei Peak are so round is because she has been practicing the Water Sutra day and night!"
A residual spiritual root? Fossilized in water? How is this possible? Long Sheng was extremely surprised.
"Earth conquers water, but Lingxiang prefers to use water to transform stone. Is the Lingxiang you know someone who gives up so easily?"
Yes, although Lingxiang is naughty, she is never a person who gives up halfway.
Long Qi's eyes lit up again. Seeing this, Ren Dong knew it was time and said quickly, "Ling Xiang seems to have a plan. Although I don't know why she abandoned you, she must have her own plans. Maybe she's waiting for you to save her. Do you still want to continue to be so decadent?"
Lingxiang is waiting for me to save him!
A fire seemed to be burning in Long Qi's heart, and his eyes were no longer as dead as before.
Yes, yes, if I think about it carefully, Lingxiang has never given up on me. She followed the Demon Lord to save everyone. If I give up like this, how can I save Lingxiang?
She must be waiting for me!
Long Qi finally regained his spirit and recuperated for half a month before deciding to go to the Long family's hometown.
Long Sheng didn't know why Long Qi insisted on doing this, and was worried about his health, so he followed him.
With Long Sheng, the location of the Long family's secret room became much easier to find. After all, he had been here with the head of the family. However, what Long Sheng never expected was that someone was already waiting there in the tomb.
"Coming?"
The voice was old but full of energy. The old man had white hair and beard, and a tattered gray robe, but he had an upright posture and a pair of black eyes. It was obvious at a glance that he was not an ordinary person.
Long Sheng was about to attack, but Long Qi seemed to know who that person was. He lifted his robe and knelt on the ground, praising, "Old Ancestor."
Ancestor?
Ancestor!
