To be honest, Yu Yan didn't know much about the books in the nine-story pavilion.
I didn't have the chance to see it before the middle stage of Mahayana Buddhism, and even after I became qualified, I wasn't so curious anymore.
The woman eventually walked to a row of bookshelves by the window in the attic.
She reached out and took the first book from the very top row.
It's thin and doesn't look like there are more than a dozen sheets.
Compared to the book in her mind, it was nothing.
Clutching the booklet, Yu Yan didn't stay in the library any longer, but took the book back to Yan Hui Peak.
Based on the information left by Fang Liuyu, she felt it necessary to study it carefully.
——
Su Ruoruo carried a black box and arrived at the mountainside of the main peak.
The hillside is mostly inhabited by deacons and elders.
At the foot of the mountain is where many inner disciples live and cultivate.
The summit houses the Venerable One's main hall and the residences of his direct disciples.
The same applies to the other peaks.
Except for Yan Hui Peak, since there are too few people there.
Of course, the main peak is much larger than the other peaks, and the entire sect's law enforcement hall, deacon hall, mission hall, etc. are all located halfway up the mountain.
Knock knock knock
Su Ruoruo knocked on Elder Chen's door.
"Enter."
The voice from inside the door was booming, and Su Ruoruo tightened her grip on the box.
She took a deep breath, a clear look of sorrow crossing her face.
"Elder Chen, it's me."
"Oh, it's Ruoruo! What brings you here?"
Elder Chen looked somewhat haggard, and there was still a lingering ruthlessness in his hawk-like eyes.
His only grandson died.
It's hateful that he couldn't protect him.
Even though Su Ruoruo was the sect leader's personal disciple, she was somewhat intimidated when facing Elder Chen.
The opponent's cultivation level was at the Void Refinement stage, and his status on the main peak was second only to the sect leader.
Master is usually very busy with sect affairs.
Elder Chen was almost always in charge of supervising the cultivation of the main peak disciples.
This is also why Su Ruoruo was willing to befriend Chen Qingping.
Firstly, Chen Qingping has a certain status, so it wouldn't lower her social standing; secondly, he is arrogant and doesn't easily make friends with others, making him easy for her to control.
He had no friends, so she became his friend.
Elder Chen immediately noticed the black box in Su Ruoruo's arms.
It seems that the scent of the little grandson still lingers on it.
He stood up excitedly, and a surge of spiritual energy pulled the box over.
With a click, the box latch opened.
The tattered clothes and several storage rings inside were revealed.
Elder Chen naturally recognized that these were his grandson's belongings, and his eyes turned red.
The oppressive aura of the Void Refinement stage spread uncontrollably, and Su Ruoruo felt a metallic taste in her throat.
Elder Chen…
The girl reminded him in a hoarse voice.
Elder Chen immediately withdrew his oppressive aura.
He sighed apologetically.
"It was this elder who lost control."
After all, Su Ruoruo was the sect leader's personal disciple, so he couldn't be too arrogant.
Besides, Qingping seemed to really like this girl; he was even thinking...
Su Ruoruo smiled wryly and remained silent. Thinking of her purpose, she composed herself and then spoke.
"Elder Chen, there's something I'm not sure if I should say, about Senior Brother Chen's death."
Elder Chen's eyes immediately turned cold and sharp. "Speak."
"When Ruoruo found Senior Brother Chen's body... his whole body was charred, but based on experience, the fire that burned him to death seemed more like it was caused by someone."
"This is outrageous!!!"
Elder Chen slammed his hand on the table.
He bent down and grabbed Chen Qingping's tattered robe, the remaining spiritual energy on it had already dissipated.
I don't know if it was deliberately deleted or if it's just been there for too long.
He prefers the former.
Elder Chen gripped his robes tightly.
