The golden sunlight shines through the thin clouds, spreading its brilliance to this peaceful and quiet land.
The center of Xuantian Continent does not belong to the scope of the Thirty-Six States. There are seven mountains standing side by side here, six mountains are surrounded together to form a circle, and the seventh mountain is located in the center, also in the center of Xuantian Continent, occupying a top-level spiritual vein.
The wisps of fairy air surround the entire Taihua Mountain and the seven peaks.
One day, two Foundation Establishment disciples were guarding the gate of Mount Taihua. From afar, they spotted a stream of green light approaching the mountain. The two disciples immediately crushed their sound transmission talismans and summoned a Nascent Soul inner disciple and several Golden Core disciples.
Over the past few years, Taihua Mountain has lost its former glory. Condemned by the Broken Soul Sect, the Divine Sword Sect, the Bai Family, and other major factions, it has become like a frightened bird, constantly on guard. However, to everyone's surprise, the cyan figure didn't land at the mountain gate. Instead, it skillfully broke through Taihua Mountain's protective formation and headed towards the inner gate.
The leading Nascent Soul disciple immediately exclaimed in shock, "Not good! Go call the elders!"
The green figure passed through the Beast Taming Peak and Qinglan Peak at an extremely fast speed, leaving only an extremely faint sound of breaking wind.
The Beast Taming Peak's master, Venerable Zhao Xianzi, immediately flew out of his cave and shouted angrily, "Who dares to fly over the forbidden area of my Beast Taming Peak?"
Soon, the master of Qinglan Peak, Venerable Yuqingzi, also flew out of the palace. She saw Zhao Xianzi in the distance at a glance, but she had just opened her mouth and had not yet spoken when she saw the green figure's back.
Yu Qingzi's eyes widened and his pupils trembled: "Jianqing!" As soon as the words fell, Yu Qingzi suddenly turned into a stream of light and chased after him.
In just a few breaths, the green figure flew directly to the peak in the center of Taihua Mountain, hidden among the heavy clouds.
Yu Qingzi rushed over anxiously, but was stopped by the countless restrictions on Yuxiao Peak. She frantically called out Luo Jianqing's name, but there was no response. Soon, Zhao Xianzi, Wen Longzi, Guanglingzi, and the others arrived. Besides Wei Qiongyin and Jie Zizhuo, who were in seclusion, the Seven Taihua Sons—Zuo Yunmo, Huo Yuchong, Xiu Hen, and Mu Tianxin—had also arrived.
Within just half a day, the entire Taihua Mountain heard this news—
"Luo Jianqing is back!"
Over the past few decades, the three words "Luo Jianqing" have become a taboo, no one dares to mention them, no one dares to speak them. Aside from the highly respected peak master elders, only the Seven Taihua disciples dare to utter that name. To everyone else, it becomes just three words: "That Person."
In the previous thirty years, the leader, Venerable Hao Xingzi, had not yet passed away. He issued the Taihua Order, issuing a warrant for the arrest of Luo Jianqing to the whole world.
In the past thirteen years, the news that "Hao Xingzi died at the hands of Luo Jianqing" spread, and no one dared to discuss it in public.
Luo Jianqing was able to kill so many powerful demons, including the Ghost Flame Patriarch of the Broken Soul Sect and the ancestors of the Bai Family. His strength must have reached an exceptionally powerful level. Some even said that Luo Jianqing's strength had surpassed that of Xuan Lingzi back then.
Therefore, many people were worried: "Will Luo Jianqing vent his anger on Mount Taihua when Venerable Hao Xingzi issued the Taihua Order?"
Mount Taihua has been declining day by day, no longer as prosperous as it once was, but a lean camel is still bigger than a horse.
One day later, all the cultivators above the Jindan stage on Mount Taihua arrived outside Yuxiao Peak. They couldn't enter the forbidden mountain, but they carefully set up formations to prevent "that person" from truly wanting to massacre Mount Taihua.
Time passed minute by minute, and Yu Qingzi and others were waiting outside.
In fact, Yu Qingzi disagreed with setting up the formation. Apart from her, the other venerables also disagreed. However, for the safety of thousands of people on Mount Taihua, they had to make a decision and be wary of all possibilities.
A bright full moon rose from the eastern sky, its cold moonlight as cool as water, casting a thin layer of silver gauze over Yuxiao Peak. Everyone on Mount Taihua waited at the foot of Yuxiao Peak, awaiting the person who had ascended the mountain. Among the crowd, a clear-headed and elegant monk raised his head slightly, gazing deep into the clouds.
"What exactly do you want to do?" Zuo Yunmo muttered to himself.
At this moment, atop Yuxiao Peak, a young man in cyan clothes sat in a bamboo hut, his gaze calmly gazing at the scene before him. It was a simple bamboo table, upon which were placed a few common items. To the right was a bookshelf, and to the left was a window bar. Luo Jianqing knew that from this window, he could see another room.
Luo Jianqing slowly stood up, walked step by step to the window, and saw the bamboo house next to it.
That was his own house, but this... was his and Xuan Lingzi's house.
Xuan Lingzi was trapped in Taihua Mountain for a hundred years, spending every day here. What did he do every day?
For the first time, Luo Jianqing realized how little he understood that person. He began to imitate him, playing chess with himself and playing music for himself. Luo Jianqing's zither skills were far inferior to Xuan Lingzi's, and he wasn't proficient in chess either. After a while, he lost interest and walked over to the bookshelf, casually flipping through the books.
Flipping through the pages like this, the sun soon set and the sun rose again. When he suddenly turned to a book, Luo Jianqing was stunned. He stared at the cover of the book in a daze and read out its name in a hoarse voice.
"'Spring Breeze...Blowing the Body'."
