Shi Shuhong used all his spiritual power and chased Wei Shouyuan.
But since he was a physical practitioner, he was still not as fast as Wei Shouyuan, a swordsman. The figure of Wei Shouyuan in front of him was like lightning, and he soon disappeared from sight.
Shi Shuhong was very anxious and chased after him.
"Haha, Shi Shuhong, I was the first to take the lead after all!"
Wei Shouyuan in the front was very proud. He had already made up his mind to escape with Xiaotang immediately once he found Xiaotang in the back mountain.
Find a secluded and safe place, and then seize Xiaotang's innate spiritual energy with peace of mind.
Soon, Wei Shouyuan came to the back mountain and found the lotus pond.
The scene at that time appeared in my mind involuntarily.
The three major sects took advantage of Xia Qinglian's master and disciple's absence to raid Qinglian Mountain. This was a massacre.
However, they encountered the strongest resistance in front of the lotus pond in the back mountain.
A group of Qinglian sect disciples guarded this lotus pond, saying that it was built by their saint Xia Qinglian for their senior sister Chun Hongtang, and that it contained the soul of the senior sister Chun Hongtang.
Among this group of disciples, the one with the highest cultivation level was only at the peak of Jindan. Facing many elders from the three major sects, he resisted for a long time.
When the last Qinglian sect disciple was killed, the blood turned the lotus pond red. Wei Shouyuan and others carefully explored the lotus pond, but found nothing special.
They all couldn't understand why these Qinglian sect disciples would risk their lives so much for such an ordinary lotus pond.
With this past, Wei Shouyuan has a deep memory of this lotus pond.
At this moment, he stood in front of this lotus pond that had dried up long ago and the withered lotus flowers in it had turned into dark red. He looked around, searching eagerly.
Suddenly, his eyes paused.
Not far from the west side of the lotus pond, there is a thatched house.
When Qinglianmen was destroyed, there was only this lotus pond without any houses.
It’s here!
Wei Shouyuan was overjoyed and came to the house. He raised his hand and the door opened.
A woman was sitting in the room, looking at Wei Shouyuan who suddenly appeared with a frightened face.
"Who are you?"
The woman was about sixteen or seventeen years old, wearing a plain skirt of coarse cloth, with a hint of childishness between her eyebrows. She had exactly the same characteristics as the foreigner He Zhiqiu described by Ye Xiyue.
Wei Shouyuan smiled and said, "Are you Xiaotang? I am He Zhiqiu's friend, and he asked me to come here."
The woman's face showed joy, she stood up and said, "I'm Xiaotang! Is your husband coming to pick me up?"
Yes!
Wei Shouyuan was overjoyed and was about to step forward to take Xiaotang away when a sinister voice came from behind him:
"Miss Xiaotang, don't believe him. He is from the Demon Sect. I am He Zhiqiu's fellow sect. I am here to protect you!"
Wei Shouyuan looked back at Shi Shuhong with a gloomy face: "Brother Shi, your movement is faster than before."
Shi Shuhong sneered: "Junior Brother Wei, you are no match for me. Leave now and I will not embarrass you."
Wei Shouyuan's expression changed. He suddenly raised his hand, and a long sword flew out, hovering next to Xiaotang's white neck. Xiaotang exclaimed, his feet were weak with fear, and he collapsed to the ground, tears streaming down his face.
"You, you are a bad person, don't, don't kill me!"
With such a performance, it is obvious that he really knows what Qiu said, and his outsider really doesn't know how to practice.
When Shi Shuhong saw Wei Shouyuan pointing his sword at Xiaotang, his expression changed: "Wei Shouyuan, are you crazy?! If you kill her, you and I will be hopeless!"
Wei Shouyuan sneered, still controlling the flying sword to press against Xiaotang's neck, and ducked to Xiaotang's side, clasping his fingers on her wrist.
"Senior Brother Shi, why do you not necessarily believe everything that Qiu and Ye Xiyue say? Why don't you let me investigate first to see if this woman is really innate with the best spiritual roots?"
Shi Shuhong stepped forward slowly, but a smile appeared on his face: "Junior Brother Wei is really thoughtful."
"stop!"
Wei Shouyuan shouted coldly: "If you dare to take another step forward, I will kill her. At worst, neither of us will get anything!"
Shi Shuhong had no choice but to stop and said with a smile: "Junior brother, don't be anxious, I won't move, you can feel free to investigate."
Wei Shouyuan looked at him warily, clasped his fingers on Xiaotang's wrist, and penetrated the other person's body with his spiritual power.
After a moment, his expression changed, he let go of Xiaotang's hand, and said angrily:
"We were fooled, this woman has no spiritual roots at all!"
Shi Shuhong was startled and asked quickly: "Seriously?"
Wei Shouyuan's face was gloomy, and he tried to push Xiaotang towards Shi Shuhong: "Brother Shi, you can see for yourself."
As soon as he finished speaking, a green sword light shot out from behind Xiaotang like lightning, piercing Shi Shuhong's eyes!
Shi Shuhong was on guard for a long time, and his hands emitted white light, blocking his eyes.
The sword light pierced his hand, making a loud bang.
The surrounding ground cracked slightly, and even the house collapsed.
Xiaotang screamed and squatted down holding his head, his whole body shaking.
Shi Shuhong flashed in front of her, stretched out his hand to grab her, and stabbed down with two flying swords, forcing him away.
Wei Shouyuan turned around and wanted to catch Xiaotang, but a sharp breath came from behind him. He had to turn around and swing his sword to block Shi Shuhong's fists.
"Senior Brother Shi, this woman has no spiritual roots, why are you and I fighting in vain?"
"Junior Brother Wei, if she really has no spiritual roots, why did you attack me secretly? Do you dare to hand her over to me and let me investigate in person?"
"Senior Brother Shi, how about you give this woman to me, and when I advance to the state of transformation, I will help you control Ye Xiyue and let you get what you want?"
"Haha, Junior Brother Wei, you have always been attracted to Ye Xiyue. This girl is mediocre in appearance, so give it to me. When I make a breakthrough, I will help you take Ye Xiyue into your body. How about that?"
"So it seems that the battle between you and me today is inevitable?"
"I've heard that Junior Brother Wei's Supreme Heart-killing Sword has entered the realm of transformation, and I've long wanted to learn from it."
Boom!
The two negotiated to no avail, and finally stopped holding back and went all out!
Suddenly, strong winds blew up, and the entire back mountain was trembling.
Xiaotang was enveloped by a confining circle released by the two of them with a tacit understanding. One was to protect her from the aftermath of the fight, and the other was to prevent her from escaping.
Huge spiritual collisions continued to sound.
I don’t know how long the fight lasted.
puff!
puff!
Shi Shuhong and Wei Shouyuan spit out a mouthful of blood at the same time.
The two of them had just collided with each other with all their strength, and both were seriously injured.
Their eyes were full of murderous intent, and they had obviously made up their minds to fight to the death today!
Boom! !
At the back of Qinglian Mountain, which had long been deserted, two Nascent Soul Stage monks fought with all their might, risking their lives, and blood spilled from the air from time to time.
At this moment, the two of them don't look like the elders of the righteous sect, but more like thieves who started fighting among themselves due to uneven distribution of the spoils.
Under the confrontation between the great monks who changed the color of heaven and earth, Xiaotang, who was squatting on the ground with his head in his arms, slowly raised his eyes, a pair of ordinary eyes suddenly flashed with fierce murderous intent.
She looked at the dry lotus pond in the distance, and her voice was soft but cold:
"Junior Sister Wang, Senior Sister Li, Junior Brother Chen Guan, Aunt Liu, and Xiao Chengzi's enemies have arrived. Today, I invite you to drink a glass of the enemy's blood."
