Alienated Martial Arts

The autumn banquet at Green Willow Manor came to an abrupt end.

There was chaos inside, and everyone looked panicked.

Surrounded by their personal entourage, a large group of young men and young ladies fled frantically, got on the family carriage, and ran towards the city without even daring to look back.

After a while, only a few people were left in the empty banquet venue.

"Sir, you still need to make a decision early!"

"The movement over there seems to have stopped now. If we don't leave, it will be too late!"

Beside Feng Yunhai, the two warriors accompanying him looked anxious, turning their heads from time to time to look in the direction of the back garden.

The words "transformation of heaven and human beings, the state of a master" just made by a practicing Zangkeqing made them shaken and frightened in an instant, completely losing their sense of proportion.

Feng Yunhai was holding a glass of wine, but he stayed there motionless.

Not far away, there were his sister Feng Qingping and the girl named Qu who were still in their seats.

Everyone else had already left and disappeared early in the morning.

"Why don't you leave yet?"

Feng Yunhai drank the wine in his glass with a puzzled look on his face.

"If my second brother doesn't leave, I won't leave either."

Feng Qingping smiled slightly and her tone was calm and calm.

"Why does Miss Qu stay here?" Feng Yunhai asked again.

Qu Chang said slowly, "The little girl has been taken care of by Wei Daozi at home. Now that he has not come out, it is inconvenient for me to leave directly."

As she said that, she turned to look at Feng Qingping again, "Besides, Miss Qingping and I hit it off immediately and had a great conversation. I thought I would stay with her."

Feng Yunhai nodded and said to the two attendants, "The guest guest just now did say that the realm of heaven and man is transformed into a master, but what he said later was that it was a life-and-death struggle and a confrontation between masters. So what will be the outcome in the backyard? No matter what, it’s not yet easy to make a conclusion on this.”

After a pause, he sighed secretly, "Not to mention that others can leave, but I personally sent His Highness Qingxuan here and hid it secretly in Green Willow Manor. If the situation is really bad, even if I leave now, then It’s of no use.”

"Anyway, the messenger who delivered the news to my father has left. I might as well stay here and see who wins and who loses, who dies and who lives in the battle between the masters in the backyard.

If you can really die in the hands of the master, it is better than being casually killed by the minions below after doing bad things. At least you can brag with other ghosts after you go to the underworld, and you will not fall into the hands of the Jiedushi Master. title. "

Qu Chang suddenly smiled and said, "Grandmasters are human beings, and they will die naturally. After hearing what the Second Young Master said, I immediately became less afraid."

"You are not afraid anymore, but I am scared to death. It's just that the situation is like this, and I have to hold on no matter what."

Feng Yunhai sighed again, "Come on, come on, it's useless to think too much. There are so many good wines and dishes. If you don't eat them, it would be a big waste. Let's fill our stomachs first."

Green Willow Manor backyard.

After a long time, Wu Qingxuan had not recovered from the extreme shock.

She seemed to have turned into a statue, standing there blankly, staring blankly at the figure flanked by her brothers and sisters.

He was casually wearing a suit of clothes that didn't fit him well and sat still on the ground.

In front of him was Wei Jueyan's dead body.

The two of them just looked at each other, like old friends they hadn't seen for many years. After meeting, they were speechless and choked, silent and so excited that they couldn't speak.

Wu Qingxuan did not dare to come forward and disturb him. After calming down a little, he felt sore all over his body, so he found a fairly flat place, sat down directly regardless of the image, and began to treat the wound on his palm.

Wei Tao's eyes were not focused.

On the surface, he was staring at Wei Jueyan's eyes, but in fact, he had already drifted to nowhere.

His ears were also trembling slightly, as if he was listening to something.

Time passed little by little.

The sun is gradually setting in the west, and another day of darkness is approaching.

Wei Tao came to his senses at this moment.

But there were two lines of blood slowly flowing down from the corners of his eyes.

"Is Wei Daozi injured?" Wu Qingxuan was excited and hurriedly took out a brocade box with dragons and phoenixes from his body. When he opened it, there were only a few fragrant pills inside.

"No, I have some elixirs to replenish my vitality. You'd better keep these for later use."

Wei Tao raised his hand to wipe away the blood and fell into silence again.

After a moment, he suddenly asked an unrelated question, "As a royal child, Your Highness Qingxuan told me about the pilgrims Fu Taichang and Yu Changshi before, so he should have a deeper understanding of the sects than ordinary people." insights.”

"Because of my father, I can more or less know some things."

Wu Qingxuan nodded, "Whatever Daozi wants to ask, as long as I know it, I will tell you everything."

Wei Tao fell into thinking again, and after a moment he said slowly after careful consideration, "Does Your Highness know anything about Feng Xun Taishang of Xuanwu Dao? What level did he reach in his heyday?"

"Your Majesty Feng Huan."

Wu Qingxuan looked at the fiery red sunset and recalled slowly, "About ten years ago, I once met him in person at a ceremony in the capital. He seemed to be a very kind old man who was always smiling.

As for the level of cultivation of Taishang Feng Zhen, I have heard from my father before that when he was at his strongest, he had even broken the barrier and touched the threshold of yin and yang. His strength was not even lower than Taoist Master Qi Taiquan of Xuanwu.

It's a pity that during the battle with Qinglian Sect Gui Shufang on the bank of Luoshui River, Prince Feng Zhen was seriously injured by this man's desperate self-destruction. From then on, he seldom appeared in the world, and only during ceremonies. Only come out occasionally. "

Speaking of this, she sighed lowly, "When I saw him that time, he was really old and powerful, and he didn't have the temperament and demeanor of a martial arts master at all.

However, my father and Mr. Ou had said that although Supreme Feng Yan looked extremely weak, if anyone really underestimated him because of this, or even dared to provoke him, he would probably cause a huge disaster for himself. Disaster. "

"Oh, what happened later, wasn't Prince Feng Zhen killed by one of his close disciples? Sun Daozi Xiyue also rebelled and fled the world."

"Did Supreme Master Feng Huan of Xuanwu Dao really be killed by Sun Daozi Xiyue?"

Wei Tao frowned, thoughtfully, "When Sun Xiyue killed Prince Feng Huan, was there anyone else who witnessed it with his own eyes? What was the detailed process inside, and did His Highness Qingxuan know about it?"

"Many people have seen the body of Grand Master Feng Zhen, so this cannot be faked."

Wu Qingxuan shook his head, with an apologetic expression on his face, "However, the specific circumstances and the entire detailed process are secrets that are forbidden within Xuanwu Dao, and it is even more difficult for outsiders to know the details."

Wei Tao nodded, "What about Sun Xiyue? Your Highness has lived in the capital for a long time and is not far from the Xuanwu Dao Sect. Have you seen her before?"

"Sun Daozi, I've met her too. Before she betrayed Xuanwu Dao, I even chatted and drank tea with her."

He raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Oh? So in the eyes of His Highness, what kind of person is Sun Xiyue?"

"In my eyes, although she always gives people a cold feeling of being indifferent and distant on the surface, I feel that she is a pure and reserved character who doesn't like trouble.

If you really get to know her, you will even think that she is a very gentle and gentle woman.

I don't know why, but she turned into such a crazy and twisted look later on. "

Wei Tao asked again, "Where are the other disciples of Supreme Master Feng Zhen? Has His Highness had any contact with them?"

"I have also had contact with them. They each have different personalities, but generally speaking, they are all good people."

At this point, her voice dropped, "But before Sun Daozi rebelled and left, they all died.

In the lineage of Taishang Feng Huan, now there is only one Sun Daozi who is unknown whether he is alive or dead and has no trace. The inheritance is almost cut off. "

Wei Tao was silent for a long time, and suddenly asked another question, "How much does Your Highness know about Gui Shufang, who once worked as an errand in the Touring Department, but then switched to the Qinglian Sect?"

"All matters related to the imitation of Guishu are also secrets that are forbidden to be mentioned in the Touring Department. I have not specifically asked about it, so I don't know much about it."

Wu Qingxuan thought for a moment, then took over everything, "If Wei Daozi is interested in this matter, then I can ask Fu Taichang for advice after I go back. He should know many secrets from back then."

The sky quickly darkened.

The wind also brought a noticeable chill.

After that, neither of them spoke. One sat quietly in a daze, and the other was silently lost in thought. They didn't know what they were thinking.

The last ray of sunlight quietly disappeared.

At this moment, Wei Tao slowly exhaled a breath and stood up straight from the ground where he had been sitting for a long time.

"I have one last question."

"Wei Daozi said it bluntly."

He began to return along the way he came, and tied the magic sword back to his waist, "Your Highness, does he know about the Luocha tribe located deep in the mountains of Mozhou?"

"Know something."

Wu Qingxuan smiled and said, "Last year because of the Mozhou rebellion, my father occasionally mentioned it at home. After listening to it, I learned more about it. Speaking of the Luocha tribe, in fact, earlier, they were used by people outside the mountain. It’s called the Rakshasa tribe.”

"Rakshasa?"

Wei Tao asked in surprise, "The Rakshasa who eats human flesh and is called an evil ghost in the storytelling story?"

"It's this Rakshasa, but it doesn't mean eating human flesh and blood, and it means a cloud-named evil ghost, but it means a Rakshasa woman."

Wu Qingxuan slowly recalled, "In the early days of the Luocha tribe, the women were brave and strong, responsible for hunting and fighting. Instead, the men mostly stayed in the village to do menial work, so after some contact, people outside the mountain called them They are Rakshasa tribe.

Then it seems that after successive conquests, the Luocha tribe suffered many defeats and went all the way deeper into the mountains to hide in seclusion.

It was not until an unknown number of years passed that they began to have contact with people outside the mountains, planting tea trees for sale, and the name "Rocha Clan" came about. "

Wei Tao digested what he just heard and compared it with what the girl from the Locha tribe said.

After a moment, he finally asked another question he wanted to know, "Has Your Highness ever heard of the Shanzhai ancestral hall that has been worshiped by the Luocha tribe for generations and has constant incense?"

"Does Wei Daozi also know about the Luocha clan's ancestral hall?"

Wu Qingxuan suddenly lowered his voice, with a rather mysterious expression, "Does the Taoist know what they enshrine in the ancestral hall?"

Wei Tao lowered his eyes and said calmly, "I really don't know what it is. Could it be a priceless rare treasure?"

"Not a rare treasure, but a corpse!"

Wu Qingxuan lowered her voice, almost like an ant, "It is said that Sun Xiyue broke into the Luocha Clan's ancestral hall and fought with the elders of the rich clan whose strength was unpredictable, just for the corpse that had been worshiped by countless generations. ."

Wei Tao looked around, his eyes sparkling, "She took the body away?"

"No, it is said that Sun Xiyue was crazy at that time, killed countless people, and even killed the Luocha clan at great cost.

In the end, he just opened the coffin, stood in front of the corpse for a long time, and then left. "

She breathed out a soft breath, "Daozi saved the lives of our siblings, so I will never deceive Daozi about these things.

If you want to talk about why I know so much about the Luocha Clan, it’s because my father later sent people to the ancestral hall.

Not only his father, but also many other people had quietly gone there, perhaps just to take a look at what kind of magic and mystery there was in the place that could make Sun Xiyue so crazy. "

"Oh, I almost forgot to tell Wei Daozi."

Wu Qingxuan clasped his hands together and made a worshiping gesture, "I have personally seen the portraits enshrined in the Luocha clan's ancestral hall, and was scolded by my father, telling me not to be too curious and look at things I shouldn't."

Wei Tao's thoughts kept flashing in his mind, "Is there any relationship between that portrait and the corpse enshrined in the Luocha Clan's ancestral hall?"

She bowed again and said slowly, "It doesn't matter, they are the same person, an extremely cold and beautiful woman."

He suddenly stopped and turned around, "Where is that portrait now?"

"I only secretly looked at it once, and then I was kicked out by my father. Later, it was said that the portrait was sent to the inner palace. I don't know whose hands it ended up in."

When Wu Qingxuan said this, he suddenly hesitated.

After ten or so breaths, she gritted her teeth and summoned up the courage to say, "I have also learned music, chess, calligraphy and painting. Although I don't dare to say that I am particularly good at painting and drawing, I can at least get a score of six or seven, or even seven or eight." Similar.

If you want to see that portrait, Daozi, when I find the pen, ink and dye, I can draw one for you. If not, I can draw a few more. Maybe I can always find the most similar one! "

Wei Tao was silent for a long time, raised his hands and cupped his fists, and bowed, "In this case, I will bother Your Highness Qingxuan."

Wu Qingxuan hurriedly returned the courtesy, "Daozi is as kind as a mountain to our sisters and brothers, so why bother?"

After a moment, he straightened up and looked up at the sparse starry sky. His eyes fell on the cloud covering the moon, and suddenly he felt a little dazed again.

Wu Qingxuan stood aside quietly and waited.

It wasn't until he lowered his head that he said softly, "Wei Daozi, I thought about it carefully just now, and I don't know whether to say something or not."

Wei Tao came back to his senses and kneaded his swollen brows, "There's nothing you should say or not. Your Highness Qingxuan just says it."

Wu Qingxuan nodded and said slowly after careful consideration, "What I want to say is that today's battle at Green Willow Manor should be the result of Taoist Master Guimen Ning receiving the news and secretly going down the mountain, killing Wei Jueyan and others, and then disappeared again. Go away.

As for Wei Daozi himself, he only provided assistance and killed several warriors who sneaked into our siblings' side, thus protecting our safety. "

She carefully observed his expression and found no change before continuing.

"It is really surprising that Daozi, at such a young age, was able to kill the evil master Wei Jueyan. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is shocking.

However, if the wood is beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy it; if it is piled up on the bank, the current will be turbulent; if the behavior is higher than others, the crowd will be wronged. If this news spreads widely, I am worried that it will not be a good thing for Daozi. "

Wei Tao nodded slightly, with a gentle smile on his face, "What His Highness Qingxuan said is absolutely correct, so let's do what His Highness wants."

Wu Qingxuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said seriously to his brothers and sisters who were standing silently, "What I said to Wei Daozi just now, you only need to know that Dao Master Ning went down the mountain to retreat from the enemy. Don't say anything else. It's best not to even remember it." Remember, do you understand?"

The two of them were expressionless and motionless.

No reaction at all to what she said.

Wei Tao didn't want to speak at first, but seeing that Wu Qingxuan was hurt and exhausted, and even vomiting blood out of anxiety, he coughed lightly and said, "You two, remember what my sister just said."

Wu Qingxun and Wu Qingxun suddenly bowed and saluted, and said in unison, "Sir, don't worry, we will remember it and never forget it!"

At this moment, footsteps suddenly approached.

When the two sides met, the few people who came from the front garden were obviously startled, but they mustered up the courage to approach tentatively.

When he could finally see his face clearly, Feng Yunhai's eyes widened suddenly, and he let out a forced breath. His legs almost gave out and he fell to the ground.

He walked a few steps quickly, threw away his long sword and bowed, "Seeing that His Highness and Daozi are safe and sound, my heart has finally calmed down, and I no longer feel anxious and hesitant."

Wu Qingxuan sighed quietly, "Didn't I tell Mr. Feng before that once there is any movement in the back garden, you must not hesitate at all. The faster you go, the better. Don't look back when you enter the city..."

Feng Yunhai bowed again, "Your Highness is in danger, how could I ignore it and only think about my own escape?

Even if I can return to Fucheng, my father will not spare me, a coward who is greedy for life and afraid of death. "

Wu Qingxuan bent her knees slightly and returned the salute, "I will never thank you for your kindness. Qingxuan will definitely remember Master Feng and the Second Young Master for helping me this time and will not forget it."

On the side, Wei Tao was slightly startled when he saw that familiar figure, "Why is Miss Qu here too?"

Qu Shang said, "I know that Daozi is in the back garden, and I heard the thunder there and the ground surging, so I was a little worried about Daozi's safety, and I didn't have the intention to leave."

Wei Tao was silent for a moment, with a gentle smile on his face, "Miss Qu has never practiced martial arts. If you encounter this kind of situation in the future, it is best to stay away as soon as possible."

Soon after, a group of people came to the front garden.

Then I saw that there were many tables set up, and most of them had not been touched much. It was just because they had been left for too long that they lost the aroma and heat when they were freshly cooked.

Wu Qingxuan didn't mind it, and sat down at the nearest table. He filled up the wine cup at hand and raised it, "A glass of thin wine, I salute you all. From now on, we will be like brothers and sisters."

After finishing the glass of wine, she filled another glass, then stood up and left the table, bowing deeply in the direction of Qinglin Mountain, "I would also like to thank Dao Master Ning for his help and saving the lives of the three of us, my sister and my brother."

Master Ning?

Feng Yunhai's heart moved and he suddenly realized.

Since it is the transformation of heaven and man, and the confrontation between masters, then there should be no one else on the side of His Highness Qingxuan except Dao Master Ning.

Thinking about it further, His Highness Qingxuan's previous worries and anxiety were most likely intentional. In fact, everything had been arranged secretly, and he was just waiting for the other party to gather their strength to jump out and catch them all in one fell swoop.

Thinking of this, he also stood up and left the table, bowing in the direction of Qinglin Mountain, with words of humility and flattery in his mouth.

During this time, Wei Tao kept talking and had already eaten at the third table of noodles.

After the battle with Wei Jueyan and the passive opening of Xuangan's door, he was exhausted both mentally and physically. He was even more exhausted than after the battle with the old monk in Beihuang on Taixuan Mountain. He was almost at the point where he could barely hold on. degree.

Although I took a lot of pills to regain my strength, the feeling of hunger in my belly did not subside. Instead, I felt that it was getting worse and I needed to eat a lot to replenish my body.

The moon is above the treetops and the night is dark.

Wei Tao drank the last bottle of wine and sighed with satisfaction.

Quietly, a chuckle echoed in my ears.

He slowly closed his eyes, listened, and felt carefully.

Compared with the passive acceptance before, there is a bit more scrutiny at this time, and there are lingering doubts.

Time passed little by little.

Rubbing the Yuan Yi Magic Sword at the side of his waist, Wei Tao sighed secretly.

From the beginning of the tour of Si Gui's calligraphy, to the Xuanwu Taoist Supreme Master Feng Huan, to the murderous Sun Xiyue, many things seem to be shrouded in a thick fog, making people feel unreasonably irritable, but they can't see their true face. .

Even his own memories, which he originally believed in deeply, couldn't help but have a lot of doubts after he entered the realm of mysticism and gained a more in-depth and intimate perception of all kinds of delusions.

However, it is difficult to directly find the answer to this kind of thing on the bright side. It is very likely to attract the covetous prying eyes of interested people. When the time comes, no matter whether it can be defeated or not, it will be a big trouble for both sides.

We can only explore slowly based on the known clues, hoping to solve the doubts about my own mystical delusion as soon as possible.

It's a pity that those people have died.

If they are all still alive, he only needs to concentrate on improving his cultivation. When the time comes, he can kill them all one by one, and then he may be able to have a comfortable mind and clear thoughts.

"Wei Daozi, Wei Daozi?"

Amid the soft call, Wei Tao came back to his senses and turned his head to look somewhat displeased.

Feng Yunhai met the scarlet eyes and shuddered, "Wei Daozi, the rain is getting heavier and heavier. Do you want to go to the wing over there for a while or change into dry and warm clothes?"

The cold wind howled and the cold rain fell.

It crackled on the ground.

Only then did Wei Tao realize that most of his clothes were already wet.

It was because Feng Yunhai had been standing by with an umbrella raised, otherwise the water would have dripped down.

There were two little guys behind him who made him speechless. They were still standing on the left and right, completely unaware and indifferent to the fact that they were dripping wet.

"I was obsessed with thinking about the problem just now, but I have troubled the second young master."

Wei Tao showed an apologetic smile, stood up and followed Feng Yunhai into the side room.

The stove inside has been lit, bringing bursts of heat and a faint scent of fragrance.

Wu Qingxuan was covered with a blanket, curled up on the recliner and fell asleep.

Next to them, Qu Shang and the younger sister of the Feng family were sitting next to each other, each wrapped in a big cloak and closing their eyes to meditate.

There are two other warriors, wearing coir raincoats and bamboo hats standing guard by the door.

"Daozi, I've prepared clothes in the back room." Feng Yun closed the wooden door of the wing to keep out the wind and rain.

"Qing Yan, you go change clothes first, then Qing Xun." Wei Tao sat down by the stove and glanced back.

After finishing speaking, he turned his head, but in front of him was Ichika without any warning.

The heater with the smoke curling up was gone, and the women sitting or lying next to it were gone. There was only an endless sea of ​​flowers, stretching from the feet to the horizon.

Suddenly, faint laughter sounded from among the sea of ​​flowers.

"I don't know what to say by pretending to be a god or a ghost!"

Wei Tao had no expression on his face and followed the sound.

Then he saw a girl in a pure white dress, looming deep in the flowers, coming in style.

"Sun Xiyue?"

"From an altar of bones to a sea of ​​flowers?"

"No, no, it doesn't look like the face I saw in the Cangmang Mountains."

"It's still wrong. I have a vague memory of what she looks like. I can't figure it out clearly."

A series of thoughts flashed through my mind.

Wei Tao walked forward slowly, his eyes gradually turned scarlet, and his eyes were cold and cold.

"No matter who she is, I only know that if she disturbs my tranquility and disturbs my mind, I will beat her to death right here."

"The flowers are blooming and the fragrance is floating. If you can die here, you have chosen a blessed place for yourself."

In the midst of the brilliant purples and reds, the figure of the girl in white was agile and ethereal, as if she was unaware of the coming danger.

"Wei Daozi, do you want to change your clothes?"

Feng Yunhai leaned down and just opened his mouth to ask a question, but suddenly closed his mouth again.

There was also a chill rising from the soles of the feet, and it went straight to the forehead in an instant. The whole person felt like being in an ice cellar, with chills all over his body.

Wei Tao sat motionless by the fire, with red threads surging in his eyes, finally settling in the middle of his pupils.

He seemed to be in a daze, but his hands were tightly holding the armrests of the wooden chair, and he was even trembling slightly.

Click!

The handrail broke and suddenly turned into countless tiny wood chips, sliding down from the fingers like quicksand and spreading out on the ground.

"Wei Daozi?" Feng Yunhai took a step back subconsciously.

"Don't say anything and don't touch him."

Wu Qingxuan opened his eyes at this moment, his expression was extremely serious, and his voice was very low, "Let's change a house, it's best to be farther away from Wei Daozi, so as not to disturb his retreat."

She lifted up the blanket and stood up, her movements extremely gentle, as if she was afraid of making too much noise and disturbing something.

Qu Shang and Feng Qingping looked at each other, not knowing what happened.

Feng Yunhai was the only one with a surprised expression on his face, and he didn't dare to say another word or make any noise.

There was a soft squeaking sound.

The door to the wing was opened.

Just as the attendant standing outside was about to ask, he was stopped by Feng Yunhai, who looked anxious, and led the two of them to clean up another room.

Although Qu Shang and Feng Qingping didn't understand what he meant, they followed him away obediently, walking quietly and making no noise along the way.

Wu Qingxuan came to the door, looked back at her siblings who were still standing silently, and couldn't help but sigh lowly, "Qingxun, Qingyan, please follow me outside for a while. When Mr. Wei figures things out, sister. Bring you back."

The two of them stared at each other and stood motionless, as if they didn't hear her voice.

At this moment, Wei Tao closed his eyes and sighed softly, "You must listen to your sister and don't always stand by me like a wooden stake.

Go, stay with your sister, protect her safety, and come back after dawn, and I will escort you to Qinglin Mountain. "

Everyone leaves.

He was the only one left in the wing.

"Fortunately, I didn't kill someone just now. Otherwise, every one of them inside and outside this room would have been turned into corpses all over the ground."

"Looking back at it now, Dao Master Ning told me to calm down and settle down for a while. It was indeed a good word.

It's a pity that now that the door has been broken through, there is no way to go back. You can only move forward to reach the state of the master who is transformed into a deity and a human being, so that you can enjoy long-term peace. "

The strong wind and rain outside kept beating on the eaves of the roof, and there was a dense crackling sound.

Wei Tao stared at the occasional flames jumping in the heater, and there seemed to be fire burning quietly in his eyes.

…………

…………

………………

It was early morning, and the whole town woke up from its deep sleep.

More and more pedestrians began to appear on the street, and smoke from cooking stoves rose from everywhere, bringing more atmosphere of worldly fireworks.

The center of the city is not a bustling shopping street, but a garden-style mansion covering a large area.

No matter who is approaching this garden mansion, they will be cautious and keep their voices low, for fear of disturbing the noble people living there.

Just as the first ray of sunlight fell, two figures slowly came along the long street and stood in front of the mansion.

"The big boss is back!"

"The great master is back!"

In an instant, the entire mansion came to life.

Overflowing with the joy that only comes during the New Year.

"Elder Liu's family is flourishing and has many children, which is really enviable."

Gongyuan stopped inside the door, admiring the scenery in front of her, with a smile on her face.

Elder Liu looked at the people kneeling below and let out a long sigh, "With a big family and a big business, there are many worries. Sometimes when I look at my fellow disciples in the sect, I feel that they are not as relaxed and happy as their Xianyun Yehe."

"It's a good thing to have concerns. It can make you have roots in this world, instead of being drifting without support."

Gong Yuan said slowly, "Seeing these young people reminded me of Lin'er. He was the only male in the Gong family, but he died unexpectedly on the side of a road in a small town. I still don't know who committed this murder."

Elder Liu lowered his gaze and said, "Master Gong, please express my condolences."

"There is no sorrow at all, so how can we express condolences?"

The smile on Gong Yuan's face remained unchanged, and her tone remained calm, "I originally thought that I would feel sad after receiving this news, but I never thought that I would feel like a dead water from the beginning to the end, with no waves or any emotional fluctuations.

When I think about it carefully, it is even more shocking to me that it is not as good as the improvement in cultivation after becoming a master. "

Elder Liu waved his hand to reject everyone, with a puzzled expression on his face, "It is a good thing to improve your strength, why is the faction leader still scared?"

"The leader of the Palace Sect has reached such a high level in such a short period of time after he has been promoted to the Grandmaster realm. I have no choice but to surrender and be surprised and amazed."

"Senior Brother Liu has never had the same experience as me. He doesn't know the horror of being guided by inexplicable thoughts to practice, so he doesn't understand my worries."

Gong Yuan put his hands behind his back and looked up at the clouds and clouds in the sky. "I was even thinking about what I would become if I kept going like this and as time passed. Even the me at that time was still not me. ."

Speaking of this, she turned her head to the north and looked far away, "Not long ago, I climbed Qinglin Mountain and met Taoist Master Yuan Yining. He only said one word to me, and that was to endure.

But my specific situation was different from his, and I didn’t want to endure the hardship like him, so I wanted to find a way out. "

Elder Liu asked tentatively, "Did the faction leader find a way out?"

Gong Yuan shook his head, "Not yet. If the problem is not with the mysterious threads, I will do whatever it takes to improve my cultivation and smash all the things that make me unclean. Then look Can you give me some peace and tranquility?"

Elder Liu said again, "The leader of the sect has doubts. Why don't you come into the sect and ask Taoist Master Qi for questioning?"

"It seems that even for martial arts masters, Weisi cannot completely bring people under their control. So, Senior Brother Liu, do you want to help me, or are you trying to harm me in a roundabout way?"

Waves of light flashed in Gong Yuan's eyes, and she looked at him half-smilingly, "I am self-aware and know that I am definitely no match for Dao Master Qi at this time, so I will not appear in front of him easily.

After the battle on the Luoshui River more than 20 years ago, Grand Master Feng Zhen returned to the Xuanwu Mountain Gate with Weisi. Taoist Master Qi was extremely talented and would not let go of the opportunity to study such a thing.

So if he sees me, if he notices the gratitude in his heart, will he be happy and leave me directly in Xuanwu Dao? "

Elder Liu lowered his head, sweat was already visible on his back.

Gong Yuan withdrew her gaze and walked towards the courtyard, "Senior Brother Liu, don't worry, as long as you cooperate well, everything will be fine.

After all, there are many warriors in the world, but there are very few who have become masters, and there are even fewer martial arts masters with mysterious threads.

So in my eyes, your life is very precious. Don't worry that I will easily murder you. "

She smiled slightly and spoke slowly.

Without warning, the silver thread pierced the void and disappeared into the brow of a cleaning servant not far away.

The man was stunned for a moment, then suddenly fell to the ground softly, losing all breath of life.

Gong Yuan restrained her smile at this moment, "If Senior Brother Liu is still unwilling to cooperate, I will destroy your whole family in front of you, and then make you unable to survive or die under the chaos of the silk thread, and suffer the most terrible things in the world. Unbearable pain and suffering.”
