Mortal Bones

"You know how to be loyal at this time, why don't you use your brain before doing things? Didn't you eat that meal at Qingzhuju for free? Didn't you see that Uncle Jiu looked at that kid differently? How dare you make a decision? On his head!"

Liu Songshan was angry that he didn't fight for the way.

"Yes, but isn't Uncle Ninth already..."

"Shut up!"

Before Zhou Gu finished speaking, he was interrupted by Liu Songshan.

"Is that what you can call Uncle Ninth? That's Daoxuan Master's uncle!"

Liu Songshan lowered his voice, his eyes filled with panic.

"Yes Yes!"

Zhou Gu was so frightened that he nodded repeatedly.

"Pavilion Master, my two brothers are indeed at fault in this matter. We will admit it if they want to kill or behead them."

At this time, Zuo Ju, who had been silent on the side, also knelt down next to Zhou Gu.

"Brother, this matter has nothing to do with you, just leave it to me alone!"

Zhou Gu looked at Zuo Ju anxiously.

"Can you afford it?"

Liu Songshan rolled his eyes at Na Zhou Gu.

"People from Qifeng are already taking care of this matter. It would be good if we can get you two out of the mountain alive."

He then glared at the two of them.

When Zhou Gu heard this, he was immediately discouraged and stopped arguing.

If there were people on the mountain to personally intervene at this time, there would be nothing Liu Songshan could do to protect them.

"Pavilion Master, for the sake of following you for many years, before leaving, can you tell me who Xu Taiping's backer is?"

After all, Zuo Ju couldn't help asking Liu Songshan his doubts.

In his opinion, if Xu Taiping had no background, the people on the mountain would never investigate the matter.

"Yeah, I don't understand, even though Uncle Jiu and Bai Hong are gone, why would anyone help him?"

Zhou Gu also asked at this time.

"Do you think I don't want to know?"

Liu Songshan glared at the two of them.

"Besides, who told you that Uncle Nine is gone?"

He lowered his voice and continued.

"Uncle Jiu and Bai Hong are still alive?!"

"Didn't it say that the Demon King of Greedy Wolf Kingdom was born?"

Zhou Gu and Zuo Ju were both stunned.

"Forget it, you two are leaving the mountain soon, it doesn't hurt to inform you."

Liu Songshan shook his head, then looked at the two of them solemnly and said:

"The secret report we just received from Yunlouhui shows that Uncle Jiu not only returned alive from the North, he also killed the Demon Lord and cut off the demonic roots of Greedy Wolf Kingdom."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Gu and Zuo Ju immediately looked at each other, as if they couldn't believe their ears.

"So it may not be a good thing for you two to take this opportunity to leave the mountain. You can also help me take care of the affairs of Seven Swords Villa. If the matter of Feng Lai Valley is not handled well, I might have to go back one day. Seven Swords Villa.”

Liu Songshan squatted down and whispered into their ears.

"yes!"

The two men, who looked frightened, nodded in unison.

…

A few days later.

Qingzhuju.

"Squeak..."

With a bow and arrow on his back and a long knife and gourd hanging on his waist, Xu Taiping closed the courtyard door of Qingzhu Residence and added a lock on it.

Tomorrow is the first Longmen meeting of Qifeng selection, and he has to arrive at Longmen hall in advance.

"Chiji..."

The little monkey emerged safely from the hood of his cloak.

"When I take you out this time, be good and go to the gourd where there are many people, you know?"

Xu Taiping patted the little monkey on the head and smiled.

Although spiritual pets are not uncommon in Yunlu Mountain, he is still a little worried about people with intentions, so he still chooses to take the little monkey with him.

"Know!"

The little monkey nodded obediently.

"boom!"

At this moment, a crane fell from the sky, its wings fluttering and causing a strong wind at the entrance of the courtyard.

"Qingzhu resides in Xu Taiping. The day of the Dragon Gate Association competition is coming soon. Follow me to the Dragon Gate Hall quickly."

The crane raised his neck and said in a slightly arrogant tone.

"Good work."

Xu Taiping cupped his hands towards the crane, then tiptoed a little, and his body landed lightly on the crane's back.

"It's been three years. Three years ago, I came to Yunlu Mountain. The first important place of the sect I visited was Longmen Hall. It was also there that I was identified as a white spirit bone and could not become a disciple on the mountain."

Looking at the sea of ​​clouds glowing with golden light under the sunlight, Xu Taiping suddenly felt inexplicably excited.

"This time, I have to fight for the qualification to go up the mountain."

He clenched his fists and muttered something lowly.

…

The next day.

The seventh peak of Qingxuan Sect.

Youxuanju.

This villa located on a suspended mountain on the west side of the Seventh Peak is the dojo of Zhao Linglong's second senior brother Dugu Qingxiao. Compared with the simple environment of the disciples outside, this place is simply a fairyland.

"Second Senior Brother, why is there still nothing in the mountain patrol mirror? Xiao Taiping's competition is about to begin."

In the bamboo forest in the backyard, Zhao Linglong, who had changed into an emerald green skirt, was holding a bronze mirror in both hands and shouting. A pretty face with a frown was reflected in the bronze mirror.

"Didn't I tell you to wait until I come?"

Qing Xiao walked in from the courtyard gate at this time.

Behind him were a graceful woman and a girl with a charming face.

"Sister Ziyan, sister Wuyu!"

As soon as she saw the woman and the girl, Zhao Linglong, who was originally bored, suddenly became energetic. She immediately put down the bronze mirror in her hand, sat on her fairy silk and flew through the bamboo forest.

"Sister Linglong, I haven't seen you for a year. How are you doing?"

Zi Yan smiled and looked at Zhao Linglong.

"It's so good. After I said goodbye to you last year, I was first locked up in the Yangxin Pavilion by my father for half a year, and then because of some trivial matter, I was grounded for half a year. In the blink of an eye, a year of good time was gone."

Zhao Linglong sighed while holding Zi Yan's hand.

"Is losing a fire sparrow considered a small matter?"

Dugu Qingxiao rolled her eyes at Zhao Linglong.

"Sister Zi Yan, please take care of my second senior brother. He is always mean to me no matter what."

Zhao Linglong shook Zi Yan's arm and said.

"The matter is over, and sister Linglong has learned a lesson, so don't keep talking about her."

Zi Yan turned her head and looked at Dugu Qingxiao with a smile, her eyes so gentle that they could melt people.

"I know, I know."

Dugu Qingxiao was stunned for a moment, then turned his head.

Seeing this, Zi Yan raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a smile that showed her "strategy" had succeeded.

"I think my sister Buyu and I are a bit redundant here."

Zhao Linglong let go of Xu Ziyan's hand and turned to hold Lin Buyu's hand.

Upon hearing this, Qing Xiao glared at Zhao Linglong fiercely, while Zi Yan covered her mouth and chuckled, then changed the topic and looked at Lin Buyu, who had been silent all this time, and said:

"By the way, Fuyu, do you still remember Xu Taiping who went into the mountains with you?"
