Xie Yunxiao picked up the tea and took a long sip. The fatigue caused by running all the way was instantly reduced by half.
Qin Zheng also took a sip, his eyes suddenly lit up, he nodded and said, "This tea is very good, it will quench your thirst!"
Xie Yunxiao said: "You are thirsty!"
While the two were talking, the sound of horse hoofbeats came. Qin Zheng looked sideways and saw that Shu Rou and the others were following them.
When Shu Rou saw Xie Yunxiao and Xie Yunxiao from a distance, her face showed joy and she shouted: "Senior brother, everyone is tired, let's go up and have a bowl of tea before we leave!"
"Junior sister, it seems that you have completely forgotten what master told you when you went out!" Lu Xuan said.
Shu Rou ignored Lu Xuan, looked at everyone, and shouted loudly: "Do you want to go have tea?"
After running all the way, they were already thirsty. Naturally, these disciples wanted to take a rest, but they were all a little afraid of Lu Xuan, so they didn't speak.
Lu Xuan glanced at Shu Rou and said gently: "Junior sister, let's continue on our way. We are still hundreds of miles away from the Black Forest!"
"Senior brother, everyone is so tired, and we still have injured classmates!" Shu Rou said.
In that battle, several of their fellow disciples died.
Shu Rou's words suddenly made these disciples feel inexplicably sad.
Many people had died before they reached the Black Forest. It was rumored that the Black Forest was a place of death. By then, no one knew how many more people would die.
These sect disciples usually rarely go down the mountain and are not aware of the dangers of the world. Now that they have encountered such a big setback, they are naturally a little discouraged.
"Then you have to promise me that we will leave immediately after drinking tea!" Why couldn't Lu Xuan see the looks on these fellow disciples? He knew that if he continued to make unreasonable demands, he would only lose people's hearts.
At the same time, Lu Xuan looked at Shu Rou, with a sharp look in his eyes.
Shu Rou was not like this before she came out of the mountain. Such changes now show that the Shu Rou before was not the real Shu Rou.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Lu!" Shu Rou's face was full of joy, as were the other disciples. A large group of people came to the table and sat down.
The shopkeeper of the tea shed can serve the tea. This business has yielded a lot, and the shopkeeper is very happy.
Shu Rou walked towards Xie Yunxiao and the others, clasped her fists in salute, looked at Qin Zheng and said, "Brother, I don't know your name yet, so thank you for your help!"
"Qin Zheng! It's a small effort, but it doesn't matter!" Qin Zheng didn't hide his name. He knew that these people didn't know much about the court, but in Ning State, Qin's surname was a royal surname, and Shu Rou and the others knew about it.
But no matter how you look at it, Xie Yunxiao and Qin Zheng don't look like members of the royal family.
In Ning Guo, the court dominates everything. Which royal family has only two people traveling together?
"Brother Qin, are you going to the Black Forest?" Shu Rou asked.
She seemed a little familiar, sitting next to Qin Zheng.
When Lu Xuan saw this, murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
Qin Zhengdao: "Yes, those who take this road should go to the Black Forest!"
"That's true!" Shu Rou replied.
At this moment, Lu Xuan came over and said, "Junior sister, everyone has finished drinking, let's go!"
Shu Rou stood up, cupped her fists and saluted, and said, "Brother Qin, Brother Xie, how about you come with us?"
When Lu Xuan heard this, he was about to stop him, but Xie Yunxiao spoke first, "There are many of you, so you go first, and we'll come back after we have a sip of tea!"
When Shu Rou heard this, there was a look of regret in her beautiful eyes. She turned around and left with Lu Xuan. Lu Xuan said softly: "Junior sister, we don't even know who they are, how can we go with them?"
"Senior Brother Lu, don't worry, they didn't agree!" Shu Rou replied.
Xie Yunxiao and Qin Zheng continued to sit and drink tea. Qin Zheng suddenly said: "If they change the route, we may not be able to see the fun!"
Xie Yunxiao said: "This girl Shu Rou is not an ordinary person. Once she changes her path, it will definitely arouse his suspicion. Lu Xuan is not a fool. He should not change his path!"
Qin Zhengdao: "It seems that Master has confirmed that Lu Xuan's goal is Shu Rou, but what exactly is Lu Xuan going to do?"
"I don't know either!" Xie Yunxiao said.
Qin Zheng pondered for a moment and said, "It seems we forgot to ask which sect they are from!"
"You will know!" Xie Yunxiao said.
The master and apprentice finished a pot of tea and then slowly set out on the road.
I don't know if Lu Xuan deliberately speeded up, or if they sat there for too long, or if they had changed their route and walked five or six miles away, but still failed to catch up with Shu Rou and the others.
"Master, can't we meet him?" Qin Zheng asked.
Xie Yunxiao said: "If my estimate is not wrong, that Lu Xuan can't wait any longer. He will speed up and look for opportunities to take action!"
"Then let's move forward quickly!" Qin Zheng said.
Xie Yunxiao nodded, his whip cracked in the air, and his horse galloped forward like a gust of wind.
Nearly half an hour later, Xie Yunxiao and Qin Zheng entered a forest.
After walking for a while, I saw the forest in front of me was filled with mist, exhaling a cold atmosphere.
"Master, could this be it?" Qin Zheng's eyes flickered slightly.
Xie Yunxiao said: "If nothing else happens, it should be!"
"Is this really a formation?" Qin Zheng confirmed again.
Xie Yunxiao nodded, "It's an unattainable formation!"
"That's because Master has extraordinary attainments in formations. If it were someone else, it would be different!" Qin Zheng said with a smile.
Xie Yunxiao also smiled and said: "If we hadn't considered that there were people inside, we could have broken it directly from the outside!"
"But now, we still have to go into the formation?" Qin Zheng asked.
Xie Yunxiao said: "Let's go, it's too late to go in, it's too late to do anything!"
Qin Zheng nodded: "Okay!"
After agreeing, Qin Zheng rushed into the formation at an extremely fast speed.
The formation was filled with clouds and mist, and Xie Yunxiao heard the sound of someone speaking in the distance.
At that moment, his sleeves floated, and the shrouding cloud suddenly lifted.
Then a sharp voice was heard, "Who?"
At this time, I saw seven or eight people standing in front, one of them was Lu Xuan. The rest of the people all fell to the ground, including Shu Rou.
Among these seven or eight people, their costumes were different from those of Lu Xuan. They looked more like members of another sect.
"It's you!" Lu Xuan's eyes were sharp.
Xie Yunxiao smiled and said: "It is indeed us, you are really fast!"
"Hmph, you shouldn't have walked so fast!" Lu Xuan's eyes were full of murderous intent. Among the others, the ones with the lowest cultivation level were at the sixth level, and one was at the seventh level, which was equivalent to Lu Xuan.
"They are your fellow disciples, why do you want to harm them?" Qin Zheng asked sharply.
Lu Xuan snorted coldly, "The consequences of meddling in other people's business will be your life!"
When the voice came out, he swung his long sword and stabbed Qin Zheng.
Qin Zheng was still on horseback, and he raised his palm to attack.
When the palm force met the sword light, it suddenly exploded.
There was a loud bang, Qin Zheng and his horse were still where they were, while Lu Xuan flew out upside down.
He finally managed to stabilize his body, and the hand holding the sword felt sore and numb.
"Junior Brother Lu, who are they?" the master of the Seventh Realm asked.
"One of their names is Qin Zheng and the other is Xie Yunxiao. I met them on the road. They probably like to fight against injustice!" Lu Xuan paused and continued: "Senior brother Zhou Ming, we must kill them, otherwise what happened today will happen. Exposed!"
"Master asked me to take care of you, so naturally I have to handle things properly!" Zhou Ming said.
At this moment, he stepped towards Xie Yunxiao and said: "Your opponent is me!"
Xie Yunxiao chuckled lightly, "It seems that he is really going to kill people and silence them!"
"It's strange that you guys are so ungrateful. I've obviously bypassed you, but you still come after you to seek death!" Lu Xuan's eyes were full of ferocity.
Xie Yunxiao said: "Do you think you can definitely kill us?"
"There are only two of you, and there are eight of us. In terms of cultivation, he is at the seventh level. As for you, you will definitely not be at the eighth level!" Zhou Ming analyzed.
Xie Yunxiao said: "It seems that you are a person who knows how to observe the situation!"
"Who can be killed and who can't be killed? If you don't know it in your heart, wouldn't that mean you are going to die?" Zhou Ming said seriously.
The disdain in Xie Yunxiao's eyes flashed away, and he asked: "Which sect are you from?"
"People who are about to die don't need to know!" Zhou Ming looked aloof.
Xie Yunxiao sighed, "I'm afraid that you will die and become an unknown ghost!"
"Seeking death!" Zhou Ming's angry voice came out, and he swung the long knife in his hand and slashed at Xie Yunxiao.
Xie Yunxiao reined in his horse and retreated. The knife hit the ground with a bang, causing the soil to fly and smoke to fly everywhere.
"Don't hurt my horse!" Xie Yunxiao said coldly.
"You care about your horse?" Zhou Ming had a joking look on his face.
Xie Yunxiao nodded: "Yes!"
"Why don't I kill it first and then kill you?" Zhou Ming had a joking look on his face. The rest of the people also laughed wantonly when they heard this.
Xie Yunxiao said: "You can't kill my horse, but it's very easy for me to kill you, a beast!"
"Your tone is so loud!" Zhou Ming looked disdainful. He waved the long knife again, and the bright light of the knife stabbed the void with continuous sounds.
Xie Yunxiao's expression suddenly turned cold, a ray of light shot out from his palm, and a sonorous sound came out.
Before Zhou Ming could react, the long knife had been broken.
Zhou Ming's eyes were filled with shock. Before he could recover, an indescribable life-and-death crisis was in his heart.
He originally wanted to retreat, but just as he took a step forward, Xie Yunxiao's power of law turned into a long sword and penetrated Zhou Ming's heart.
"You..." Zhou Ming fell down, blood dripping on the ground, and the pungent smell of blood filled the air before his men reacted.
"Did you kill Senior Brother Zhou?" Lu Xuan couldn't calm down, with fear in his eyes.
It was clear that they were still occupying the top just now, but in just a moment, the situation had been reversed.
Because Lu Xuan understood that for Xie Yunxiao and Qin Zheng, they could not win with more people.
"Yes, I killed him!" Xie Yunxiao said.
Lu Xuan's breathing was very rapid. He looked at Xie Yunxiao, his sleeves shook slightly, and several rays of cold light shot out.
Xie Yunxiao reached out and caught the flying hidden weapon.
"Come on!" Lu Xuan shouted loudly.
But how can the rest dare to go up? Turn around and run away.
The hidden weapon in Xie Yunxiao's hand flew out, and those few people never dreamed that they would die on the hidden weapon used by Lu Xuan to kill Xie Yunxiao.
At this moment, only Lu Xuan was still alive. His legs softened, and he knelt on the ground and cried: "Leave me alive, please let me live!"
