The Qinghe Hall was silent for a while, with only the ticking of the clepsydra echoing faintly.
After a while, Yan Xing broke the silence.
"The twelve palaces all think they are the orthodox ones of the Demon Palace and they are not convinced of each other. If she leaves, isn't she afraid that someone will destroy her lair in Tongtian Snow Peak?"
If Second Senior Sister's inference was correct, the main crisis brought about by Yu Zhanmei's trip would shift from Lianjian Sect and Qinglu Sword Sect to Cangya Mountain.
Luo Mingchuan said, "So this is either a trap with a perfect plan and back-up plan; or there is something in Cangya Mountain that is worth the risk for her to come here."
Yin Biyue also felt that this was indeed the case. It was impossible that just because the Sword Saint left, he thought that Cangya, who was no longer a sub-saint, was the softest persimmon. People with such stupid ideas would never be able to sit firmly in the huge Golden Palace.
Yan Xing asked, "Senior Sister, if she comes here just to fight you, what are your chances of winning?"
He regretted it as soon as he finished speaking. It was inappropriate to ask such a question. His former opponent might be better than him now, which was not a comfortable thing to see.
Liu Qishuang answered frankly, "Not even one percent."
No one was surprised. Because if we only talk about fighting power, except for Jun Yu, even the head of the sect, Zheng Yangzi, would not dare to say that he could beat Yu Zhanmei now.
The rapid progress of the younger generation of demon cultivators in the East Land seems incredible, but it is true. Most demon cultivators do not seek to improve their state of mind or comprehend the great way of heaven and earth, but simply pursue power. They pay an unimaginable price in exchange for a surge in their cultivation.
Lifespan is severely reduced, breakthrough is extremely dangerous, and the risk is commensurate with the reward, so practicing magic is still tempting.
Jun Yu said, "You two are tired, please take a rest first. We will discuss everything tomorrow."
These words were spoken to Chen Yi and Cheng Tianyu. As soon as they finished speaking, a boy came forward to lead the way, and the two of them stood up and said goodbye.
Luo Mingchuan and Yin Biyue also stood up to see them out of the palace.
Yin Biyue felt that the eldest senior brother had not changed at all, just like the first time they met in Qinghe Hall, no one looked at him when he was silent, and no one dared to speak when he spoke.
He understood what the eldest senior brother meant. Chaos was about to break out, and the various factions would naturally have to discuss the situation. However, the current crisis was mainly centered on Cangya Mountain, so they needed to talk behind closed doors.
Yan Xing said, "No matter what Yu Zhanmei is here for, we will fight back if an enemy comes, and we will block the water if an enemy comes. Are you afraid of them?"
Liu Qishuang shook her head. "It's safer to wait and see, but it will put us in a passive position."
Yin Biyue asked, "What does Senior Sister mean?"
"I'll go find her."
Jun Yu said, "No."
Liu Qishuang laughed, "Although I can't beat her, but if I fight her with all my strength, she can't hurt me, so the test is enough."
Yan Xing said, "I will go with my senior sister!"
Liu Qishuang's face turned cold, "Don't make trouble. Outsiders were here just now, and they didn't say anything about you. What ridiculous things did you do when you went down the mountain? Not to mention your bad reputation, as a senior brother, not only did you not set an example and teach your junior brother, but you asked your junior brother to clean up the mess for you. If I hadn't sent Lao Wu home, I'm afraid you wouldn't know."
Yan Xing knew what she was talking about and lowered his head, "Master has already taught me a lesson, and I know I was wrong." But he really couldn't understand where the second half of the sentence came from, and he couldn't help but frowning in distress.
Seeing that he was confused, Yin Biyue suppressed his laughter and explained in a whisper, briefly telling him about the Flower Folding Meeting, when the fifth junior brother saved Zhongshan with a Dragon Cloud Pill, and Young Sect Master Song was willing to let bygones be bygones.
Yan Xing sighed, "I was wondering why Cheng didn't draw his sword when he saw me just now. It turns out it was because of Lao Wu. Lao Wu is so righteous!"
The eldest senior brother glanced at him indifferently, and Yan Xing stopped talking.
Jun Yu said to Liu Qishuang, "Be careful about everything."
He knew his junior sister's personality, and once she made up her mind, no one could persuade her or stop her.
Liu Qishuang responded quickly, "I know. I will set off once they enter the Western Continent."
Zheng Yangzi nodded, "We've been busy all day, let's go back and rest first."
This is how things were temporarily settled.
Luo Mingchuan went back with his master. Yan Xing put his arm around Yin Biyue's shoulder and walked towards Xihua Peak with Jun Yu and Liu Qishuang, while asking him about the scenery of East Land with great interest.
Yin Biyue answered seriously on the surface, but his mind was confused.
"See you at Tianxin Cliff at 15:30 at midnight."
All that filled his mind was what Luo Mingchuan had just said.
The voice was low and gentle, like a seed that fell into my heart, sprouted and grew into a towering tree in the blink of an eye. This feeling was strange and wonderful.
Yin Biyue tried to stay calm and couldn't help but spit on himself. With a powerful enemy at the doorstep, his senior brother must have something to discuss with him. There was no need to panic.
Xihua Peak is cold and harsh in early winter. After the yellow leaves and red maple leaves of autumn have fallen, only a few dark green pines remain among the rugged rocks.
When the four of them passed by their master's courtyard, they couldn't help but slow down.
Yin Biyue suddenly remembered the conversation between his master and his senior brother in front of this door on the day his master came back.
"I haven't been back for some time... You have grown taller, taller than me."
"Not some days, but one hundred and three years, seven months and fifteen days."
He knew that when Master went to see Second Senior Sister and Third Senior Brother, he told them about the Sword Tomb. In theory, the First Senior Brother should have known about it first.
I thought the eldest brother would be the saddest person.
But Jun Yu was too calm, not showing any emotion at all. It was as if nothing had happened.
Depression is not a good thing. Not only he thinks so, but Liu Qishuang and Yan Xing also think so.
"Big Brother..."
Yin Biyue called out, but didn't know how to continue.
Jun Yu understood what he meant, and also understood the worry in the eyes of his fellow students.
But he didn't know how to explain, and he didn't know how to comfort others. In the end, he just said, "I will come back eventually, but it will take another few hundred years."
At least Master never lied to me.
His expression was so determined that the disciples of Xihua Peak all believed that it should be so.
*************
At the hour of Hai, the night is dark.
Yin Biyue came out of the courtyard. Xihua Peak was extremely quiet at night, and the cry of partridges could be heard faintly in the wind.
The mountain road was rugged, he lowered his head slightly, walked hurriedly, and his clothes swayed. Somehow, he suddenly remembered the stories in the storybooks, about the young man and the young lady having a secret meeting on a spring night.
The thought flashed through his mind and startled him.
Suddenly I looked up and saw a person standing on the edge of Tianxin Cliff in the distance, his wide sleeves fluttering in the night wind, his tall body slender and straight as a pine tree.
Yes, it was early winter, and there was no way it could be a spring night with subtle fragrance. And the person waiting for him was his senior brother, not some boudoir girl with painted eyebrows and eyes.
It's really confusing, really confusing.
Yin Biyue calmed himself down and unknowingly walked to Luo Mingchuan's side, just about to speak.
The person in front of him turned around and said with a low laugh, "Junior Brother..."
"Brother, I'm late."
"It's not too late, I came early."
Yin Biyue looked around and saw the north wind blowing across the earth, thick clouds rolling in the sky, blocking out the moonlight.
"Brother, do you have something to say to me?"
Luo Mingchuan nodded.
He had some guesses about Yu Zhanmei's purpose today. He didn't want to worry his junior brother, but he remembered the experience in the Xingshan Temple Buddhist Hall. His junior brother once said that since he trusted her, he should tell her everything to avoid misunderstandings in the future.
So he said in a deep voice, "The inheritance of the Golden Palace lineage is inherited from the right guardian of the Demon Palace back then. The skills are the same as the Tianluo Jiuzhuan. When I was fighting with a team of demon cultivators at the border of the Western Continent and used the Galan pupil technique, someone called me 'Your Majesty'. I think they saw something..."
Yin Biyue's heart sank, "Brother, guess that Jin Gong came out of the snowy plains this time to find you?"
"Yes, I sealed Le Guan's cultivation in my body, but I still have his scattered memories, including the entire set of Tianluo Jiuzhuan skills."
The more Yin Bi understood the status of Tianluo Jiuzhuan in the magic world, which magic cultivator would not want to practice it? If Yu Zhanmei came for it, it would be worth the risk.
But he immediately remembered another thing, something he had agreed with his senior brother before he and his master went down the mountain. In comparison, it was more important.
"Brother, you promised to wait for me to come back and practice Tianluo Jiuzhuan with you."
Luo Mingchuan was startled, then smiled bitterly and said, "I didn't agree to this. I just said we can discuss it after you get crowned."
"I have already been crowned. My master did it by hand."
Luo Mingchuan looked at the white-haired man with a black hat and was speechless for a moment, "This..."
"Master said that even though I am not old enough, the time has come."
Luo Mingchuan avoided his gaze and said, "Now the storm is coming, it is a time of trouble..."
Yin Biyue didn't understand and interrupted him, "Because of this, Senior Brother can't destroy your work and start over. Now that chaos is about to happen, we all need stronger strength."
Luo Mingchuan said vaguely, "...You are right."
Yin Biyue laughed, "Brother agreed?"
Luo Mingchuan sighed. He felt that he had to explain everything clearly now. However, how should he start talking since his junior brother was so naive?
"I didn't think it through. The wind was strong on the cliff on a winter night. I should have gone to look for my junior brother... I'll send him back first."
After saying this, Yin Biyue accidentally recalled the thought of the tryst. All his self-righteousness and aggressiveness turned into a guilty conscience, and he subconsciously lowered his eyes to avoid his senior brother's gaze.
He felt that he was completely hopeless because he couldn't help but start to have wild thoughts again.
Ah, my senior came to see me in the middle of the night, climbed over the wall and imitated the meow of a cat. I secretly opened the window...
Oh my god! What the hell is this!
A warm breath suddenly approached, and before I could react, my wrist was grabbed. In a split second, the world spun around, and when I opened my eyes again, I was already standing at the gate of my own courtyard.
Yin Biyue knew that Luo Mingchuan must be carrying the "Cangya Order", which allowed him to travel freely throughout Cangya.
He came to his senses, pulled the man into the yard without saying a word, opened the door and pushed it in.
Let me make it clear today!
Don't think that sending me back will solve the problem!
*************
Crossing the company.
Intern salesperson Liu Xiaodai stood in front of the large floor-to-ceiling window of the technical department, lowering his head and being scolded by the department leader.
"How's the aura that Mr. Villain brought with him?"
"I have already taken emergency measures..."
"How did you deal with it? Tell me about it."
"I found the production batch number of the Halo, modified the source code, and cooled down the Halo!"
Zhang Qingqing rubbed his brows, feeling that the graduation certificates of these interns were all bought by Lan X. "You still think you are very smart... The halo is the only connection between us and that guest! After the halo cools down, how can we find him?"
Liu Xiaodai was speechless, "This..."
She patiently explained, "The speed of time between planes is different. You see, although it has been a short time here, the villain's children may have already passed away!"
"This is already a level one business accident, Xiaodai."
Liu Xiaodai panicked, "Then, what should we do?"
"You turn on the halo, locate Mr. Villain, and then find a strong person who is powerful enough to travel through the three thousand worlds at will and temporarily avoid the punishment of the law. Go and completely remove the halo, explain it clearly to the guest, and discuss the subsequent compensation."
Liu Xiaodai wanted to cry but had no tears. "I can open the halo, but someone has to go see Mr. Villain..."
Zhang Qingqing turned her head away, unable to bear to look at his hopeful eyes, "I don't have the ability...you should ask Senior Cheng for help."
Now Liu Xiaodai was about to cry.
"Don't be afraid. Senior Cheng has the best temper among all the great people in the company. He just seems unkind."
