"Master has an order to search the stubborn stone peak immediately. If you find that the disciple is not here at the moment, take him to the top of the peak immediately!"
"Senior Brother Cheng, what happened?"
"Master said that someone must have sneaked into Zhenyang Sect with the intention of causing chaos."
"What the Peak Master means is that if anyone is not at the Stone Peak now, then he is the evil person?"
"right!"
Chen Danfeng remembered what Cheng Yue said to her on the way to Nushi Peak.
But she never expected that the person who was not at Nushi Peak at the moment was actually He Zhiqiu!
"Senior Sister Chen, what should we do now?"
The person next to her asked her in a low voice. Chen Danfeng came back to her senses and said in a deep voice:
"Search the whole peak immediately, we must find He Zhiqiu!"
"Find out how to do it?" someone asked.
Chen Danfeng took a deep breath and said coldly: "Catch him and send him to the top of the peak, where the peak master will deal with him personally!"
"Sister Chen, are you looking for me?"
At this time, He Zhiqiu's voice came from behind. Chen Danfeng turned around and saw He Zhiqiu walking over, his clothes soaked and his head covered with sweat.
Chen Danfeng narrowed his eyes and asked, "Junior Brother He, where have you been?"
Qin Gengyun said: "I'm going to exercise."
Chen Danfeng looked at him, her clothes were wet with sweat. It looked like he had gone to exercise. She asked again:
"Did you go there to exercise?"
Qin Gengyun said: "I went to Hot Spring Valley. I found a huge stone at the bottom of the valley. It is extremely hard and is very suitable for body training. Today, Senior Brother Cheng is not here, so I will go there to do bodybuilding."
Chen Danfeng nodded slightly. He Zhiqiu usually clashed with Cheng Yue for physical training. Today, Cheng Yue was participating in the Six Summits trial, so naturally he was not at Huashen Peak.
It makes sense for He Zhiqiu to exercise himself.
As for the huge boulder under the hot spring valley, Chen Danfeng also knew that it was indeed hard in texture. Disciples specializing in physical training had also gone there to exercise in the past.
He Zhiqiu's words seemed to have no problem.
Chen Danfeng's eyes suddenly paused and asked:
"Junior Brother He, have you changed into a new pair of shoes?"
Qin Gengyun looked down and smiled: "I participated in the outer competition a few days ago and my shoes were all torn, so I changed them to a new pair. I didn't expect Senior Sister Chen to be so attentive."
The terrain on Tangshan Mountain is steep, and there is a lot of red mud on the ground. Qin Gengyun also got a lot of it on his shoes, so on the way back, he and Liusu threw away their shoes and replaced them with new shoes.
Chen Danfeng walked up to Qin Gengyun and said coldly:
"The Hot Spring Valley is extremely humid. Logically speaking, shoes should get wet. Why are your shoes so clean and not wet at all?"
Xiyue Peak.
The mountain peak where the outer disciples live.
Wei Wanzheng personally led a group of inner disciples to search every room.
The outer disciples all looked confused, not knowing what happened. Someone boldly asked Wei Wan. She still had a soft smile on her face and said that the sect had just lost something and was looking for it everywhere.
Soon after arriving at Liusu's room, the deacon disciple in charge came forward and knocked on the door:
"Junior Sister He."
But there was no response from inside. The disciple looked back at Wei Wan:
"Second Senior Sister?"
Wei Wan raised his hand slightly, and the door of the room where Liusu lived opened. Several disciples immediately walked in. After searching, nothing was found, and Liusu was not inside.
At this time, someone came over to report: "Second Senior Sister, the search has been completed. Except for He Su, all the outer disciples are here."
"Wow, there are so many people, what happened?"
A crisp voice sounded, and everyone turned around. Liusu came up from the bottom of the mountain. The deacon disciple stepped forward and asked:
"Junior Sister He, where have you been?"
Liusu said: "I'm going to practice."
"Cultivation?" Everyone looked at her strangely.
Everyone knows that He Su is a big slacker. She doesn't practice even if the deacon sister asks her to practice. How can she be so diligent today?
Liusu clenched his fists and gritted his teeth: "My outer sect lost so miserably in the competition. It's so embarrassing. I want to practice hard and get revenge on Zhao Zhen!"
"I see, Junior Sister He, you finally know how to work hard."
The deacon disciple nodded happily, and Wei Wan suddenly said:
"Junior Sister He, have you gained more from practicing today?"
Liusu scratched his head: "I didn't gain much, but my spiritual power increased a little."
Wei Wan said gently: "You are talented and smart, and you know how to practice hard. I am very happy, but you have to practice in the right way. Let me show you how your cultivation is."
After speaking, he stretched out his slender fingers and looked at Tassel.
"Senior Sister Wei, are you going to personally instruct Junior Sister He?"
"I'm so lucky to have the guidance of my commanding disciple!"
The outer disciples still didn't know what was going on, and they all looked envious.
Liusu hesitated, Wei Wan wanted to test her physical strength and spiritual power.
If she were really allowed to check, her hazy spiritual eyes might be discovered and exposed.
"What's wrong, Junior Sister He?"
Seeing Liusu's hesitation, Wei Wan's smile remained gentle and asked softly.
"It's nothing, haha. I'm so happy to have Second Senior Sister's guidance!"
Liusu laughed and stretched out his wrist, but he was shouting in his heart:
My mother’s secret is about to be exposed, what should I do? Ahhhh, so annoying!
Wei Wan leaned forward and was about to put it on Liusu's wrist.
boom!
At this time, a ball of spiritual energy flew into the sky, exploded, and emitted a dazzling red light, illuminating the entire Zhenyang Mountain!
Wei Wan's movements stopped, and the more senior inner disciple next to him changed his face in panic, and said in a loss of voice:
"Hongyun warns? Is it a beast tide?!"
The transmission note on Wei Wan's body vibrated. She took it out and took a look. Her face changed slightly and she had no time to pay attention to Tassel anymore. She gave the order:
"Everyone, go down the mountain!"
Transformation Peak.
Stone peak.
Chen Danfeng, who was questioning Qin Gengyun at this moment, also saw the huge red cloud, his face changed, and Cheng Yue jumped up in mid-air and said loudly:
"Accepting the order from the master of the peak, all disciples should go to the sect at the foot of the mountain!"
"yes!"
Chen Danfeng accepted the offer, glanced at Qin Gengyun, said nothing more, and led the outer disciples to the foot of the mountain quickly.
Someone asked curiously: "Senior Sister Chen, what on earth is going on?"
Chen Danfeng looked solemn: "The last time red clouds rose on Zhenyang Mountain, it was the beast tide twenty years ago."
"Tide of Beasts?!"
Everyone looked at each other.
In the past five hundred years, monster riots have occurred in Hongzhou Continent every few decades.
Usually high-level monsters drive countless low-level monsters to attack human towns, which is called a beast tide.
However, the scale of beast tides varies. Five hundred years ago, when the Zhenyang Sect was first established, there were several ninth-level monsters leading the beast army, which was the largest beast tide.
Later, the scale of each beast tide gradually became smaller.
Twenty years ago, there were only a few sixth-level monsters and one seventh-level monster making trouble.
Despite this, countless mortals and many casual cultivators were still killed and injured. In the end, the three major sects worked together to kill several beast kings and quelled the beast tide.
Unexpectedly, only twenty years later, another beast wave would come!
