“Interesting, so interesting!”

Tian Xianzi was very happy to see it and laughed loudly: "The great master of the Demon Sect and the disciples of the Wanjian Sect actually fought over one of his words. Xiao He really made those two people spin around and attracted countless heroes to bend their waists!"

Maya calmly took a piece of white jade cake and stuffed it directly into the mouth that looked like a big trumpet.

Looking at the entire attic, the largest number of elders gathered in front of the Xuanjing of the Xuanxu Sword Sect. Before, it was just Lin Qian and Qu Feiqing who came to join in the fun. Now, the disciples' unique operations have become famous, and no one wants to go there in person.

Come and watch.

——After all, in the mirrors of other sects, the young disciples are working diligently to collect tokens. Although the group of children in the Jindan Yuanying stage fought enthusiastically, for the elders, this kind of play-style fighting is obviously not enough

look.

For example, it's like a group of adults watching junior high school students doing math problems. They may find it interesting at first, but over time they will inevitably get visual fatigue and lose interest in continuing to read.

But things are completely different here with the Xuanxu Sect.

Others were seriously assessing, and they actually figured out a secret from many years ago, such as the "ancient divine bow", "water mirror formation" and "spiritual fox annihilation", plus all kinds of dazzling and unexpected battles of wits and courage.

, it’s like reading a storybook, you can never guess the next move.

"Obviously he was trying his best to escape from the devil, but for some reason, He Xiaodaoyou actually performed a humorous comedic temperament."

Lin Qian clicked her tongue and marveled: "Perhaps this is the legendary personal talent... Ye Zongheng will be unlucky if he meets this person."

The white-clothed female cultivator from Wanjian Sect snorted coldly: "Ye Zongheng is not strong-minded. He actually got distracted by stage fright during the battle. When the Tenth Method Ceremony is over, I will send him to the Demon Locking Tower for training."

A Paramount Qin Cultivator smiled softly: "The Golden Elixir Yuanying is so different. Under the pressure of the Demon Lord, it is not a shame to feel flustered."

Someone suddenly asked: "How are Ning Ning and Pei Ji doing?"

"It seems to be developing slowly!"

Ji Yunkai quickly swallowed the pastry in his mouth and answered loudly, grinning subconsciously and making his cheeks round and bulging: "What a pity, you can't see anything at the waterfall."

Qu Feiqing covered the corners of her lips with her sleeves, her peach blossom eyes were full of beauty, and a faint smile overflowed: "Don't worry, fellow Taoist, there are many trials and there is still time, we can still take our time to see."

Tian Xianzi was very excited and shouted righteously: "No, no, no! If they knew about this, Ning Ning and Pei Ji would be so embarrassed!"

The man paused blankly for a while, then finally responded hesitantly: "No, I want to say... aren't they two trying to find out the truth about Shui Jing? It's about the survival of the secret realm, it's very important."

——What do these people have in their heads?

The scene was a little awkward for a while.

Ji Yunkai scratched his head as if nothing happened, lowered his head with wide eyes, and swayed on the chair; Qu Feiqing took a piece of dessert with a stiff face and stuffed it into the child's mouth.

Tian Xianzi laughed twice, glared at the two old and disrespectful leaders, and adjusted the Xuanjing screen to Ning Ning's side.

*

When Ning Ning arrived at the Fox Clan settlement, the setting sun had been swallowed up by the Western Mountains. A lonely moon hung gloomily on the treetops, barely casting a few strands of pale white light.

The surroundings were eerily quiet, and no one could be seen. Only the flickering candlelight in the wooden house could be seen, like clusters of quiet and eerie will-o'-wisps, floating silently in the night.

She told He Zhizhou and Xu Yi in the letter that if they leave the village in a hurry at such a critical moment, the demons will definitely become suspicious.

The best way now is for both of them to stay in the room pretending to be nothing, waiting for her and Pei Ji to come back, and then discuss the next plan together.

However, when Ning Ning rushed to He Zhizhou's room, she found that the room was empty and there was no trace of anyone.

"The wooden table was knocked over."

Pei Ji whispered: "There was a dispute here, and the demons should have learned that they know the truth."

Ning Ning was panicking, frowning as she looked at the round table that had been overturned on the ground: "Although the wooden table in the room fell down, there was no trace of blood or corpses, and the other objects were still standing in place... indicating that the confrontation between the two parties was not serious.

Intense, they were not injured."

However, I wasn't hurt here, and I might be fine after I get out.

When they first set up a trap for Neonguang Island, Xiao Zhao helped them set up an illusion.

A young child could actually create such an exquisite formation. At that time, Ning Ning felt that something was wrong. Looking back now, he should have recovered most of his strength, far superior to all the disciples in the secret realm.

If He Zhizhou and Xu Yi bump into him, the consequences will be disastrous.

There was also no one in Xu Yi's room. Ning Ning had no way of knowing what happened and looked at Pei Ji worriedly.

In fact, he didn't really care about the whereabouts of the two people, so he didn't feel too nervous. However, when he saw her frowning, he subconsciously clenched the hilt of his sword and comforted him in an unskilled manner: "Senior Brother He has always been able to turn danger into safety.

Talent, I think this time it will be safe and sound."

Having said that, when Pei Ji caught a glimpse of Ning Ning's expression, the first thought that flashed through her mind was: If he were to be in danger one day, I wonder if she would be willing to frown.

This thought was so despicable that it struck him hard in the heart. Pei Ji didn't understand why he suddenly had such an idea. He felt his ears dry, paused for a moment, and then said, "There's something wrong here."

Ning Ning calmed down and nodded lightly.

It was too quiet here. Not only were He Zhizhou and Xu Yi missing, but the demonic cultivators pretending to be from the Spirit Fox clan were also silent. At this moment, there was suddenly a vague smell of blood in the air.

This smell should have come from not far away, and was mostly blown away by the night wind, leaving only a very faint lingering smell.

Pei Ji's eyes darkened and he said in a deep voice: "Be careful."

The five senses of a cultivator are extremely sensitive. Looking for the bloody smell, Ning Ning kept moving forward, bypassing the square and well-proportioned wooden houses, and unexpectedly came to a very familiar house.

She remembers this place.

It is Qiao Yan's residence.

As we got closer, the rusty smell became more and more obvious, as if it was so rich that it had substance, covering the entire house, and a faint scarlet color could be seen in the air.

And in front of that small wooden house, there were actually several figures standing, surrounded by murderous and violent figures, surrounding someone in the center.

Ning Ning originally thought that the person surrounded in the middle must be Qiao Yan, but when she looked through the gap between people, she saw another completely different face.

——That turned out to be Qin Niang.

In other words, the demon woman who has been pretending to be Qiao Yan's mother for many years.

There was blood at the corner of Qin Niang's mouth, and there were several hideous gashes on her face. She seemed to have been seriously injured and had no strength. She supported the ground with her hands and knelt down on the ground.

The faces of everyone around her were also pale. Perhaps they had just experienced a fierce battle, and their little spiritual power had been exhausted.

A young man was so angry that he was shaking all over, and the long knife in his hand reflected the cold light: "We all come from the same clan, why do you have to have trouble with us because of others!"

Ning Ning's heart skipped a beat when she heard the woman next to him cough lightly: "You have done enough for Qiao Yan over the years. If you hadn't begged Demon Lord Qi Han in every possible way, he would have kept that girl.

Now? Do you still want to risk your life for her?"

"In my opinion, this woman really got herself into trouble by acting."

There was another middle-aged man's voice, his tone seemed to be soaked in poison, full of ridicule and contempt: "Not only did he give us his life-saving medicine, begging to save the life of her 'daughter', today he even tried to help her

The fox escaped and attacked the people of the same race whom he has known for many years... wake up, you have never been a piano girl!"

So that’s it.

Ning Ning heard the pounding sound of her heart, and many secrets that could not be understood suddenly became clear at this moment.

That's why Qin Niang is so weak. Even though she has been nourished by so many heavenly and earthly treasures from Qiao Yan, she still has trouble standing up. So even if Qiao Yan has no use value, she can still live well among the demons.

.

Before the truth was revealed, she had imagined many explanations as to why the demons did not kill Qiao Yan.

For example, Qiao Yan has a close relationship with the Burning Sun Bow and is an indispensable person to obtain the divine bow; or she is closely related to the formation, and if the demon cultivators want to break the formation, they must go through her.

However, under all the complicated and unimaginable possibilities, the real reason is so simple and pure, and has nothing to do with conspiracy. It is like a pure white flower quietly blooming in a deep pool full of mud and blood.

, incredibly abrupt.

This is just a woman's purest selfishness, but Qiao Yan never knew it from beginning to end.

"It's useless to talk more."

The woman who just spoke coughed a few more times: "It's better to take action as soon as possible to recover Qiao Yan and the sword cultivator. If they spread the news, all the disciples participating in the trial will know the truth... Then it won't be a big deal.

Wonderful."

As soon as she finished speaking, a sword light appeared in front of her. Qin Niang was already covered in blood and was dying. She was unable to make any resistance. She was about to lower her eyes and wait for death, but she was caught off guard and caught a glimpse of a fierce sword light.

——I saw two long swords cutting through the night. The sword energy spread across the fields, stirring up cold winds like knives and blades, and attacked the lives of everyone present with overwhelming force!

Although the demon cultivators have been recuperating for many years, their bodies are still extremely weak. In addition, Qin Niang is fighting for their lives, which consumes most of their spiritual energy. At this time, they are completely unable to parry. They are forced to retreat by the sword energy and spit out a mouthful of blood.

Ning Ning took a few steps forward with the Star Mark Sword in hand, and looked at Qin Niang with a cold expression.

She couldn't see clearly in the distant night before. Now that she was closer, she realized that Qin Niang's whole body was covered with blood marks and stab wounds. Her white clothes were dyed blood red, making her face as pale as paper.

Too much anger.

"you--"

She just said a word and didn't know how to answer it next. Instead, Qin Niang coughed up a mouthful of blood and whispered: "Miss Ningning... you all already know it."

Pei Ji took a step forward and spoke on her behalf: "Where are Xu Yi and Qiao Yan?"

"Xu Xiaodao master discovered the truth and fled here with Xiaoyan."

She took a deep breath and continued in a very soft voice: "I am dying soon, and I have an unkind invitation... I wonder if you two are willing to accept it."

The demon youth who was seriously injured by the sword energy seemed to have guessed her intention, and roared with splitting eyes: "You are crazy!"
