My heart thumped violently. Apart from him and the dead Liu Xie, there was no one else around. Whose palm could this sudden appearance belong to? Could it be that it's a ghost in the wilderness!
Although Mu Jingyu was panicking, he didn't hesitate at all with his hand. Just when he was about to wave his palm down and shatter the palm that suddenly appeared, he suddenly heard a weak voice coming from underneath him.
"Young hero, young hero, stop..." The voice sounded extremely weak, as if he was about to die at any time.
Mu Jingyu was shocked. He carefully distinguished the voice and recognized that it was Liu Xie who had just died!
After all, Mu Jingyu was still a young man. In the deep mountains and old forests, Liu Xie, who had just died, suddenly started talking, which naturally frightened him. Standing still, not daring to move.
"Uncle, I just happened to pass by here, and I don't have any ill intentions! If you are determined to die and want revenge, you'd better go find the weirdo in black robe. He just left not long ago, and it should be too late to chase him now... "
"Did you see everything just now, young hero? Don't worry, I just pretended to die. When he wasn't paying attention, I secretly used my true energy to protect his heart, and I deceived him."
Mu Jingyu suddenly realized, "It turns out you were all faking! Uncle, you just grabbed my feet and scared me to death."
Now that he knew Liu Xie was not dead, Mu Jingyu felt relieved. He quickly squatted down and tried to help Liu Xie up.
"do not move."
Liu Xie spoke up in time to stop Mu Jingyu, coughed a few times and said, "Although I just protected my heart, temporarily sealed my breath, and deceived him with fake death. But I still don't have much time left to live. I wanted to Wait until the people in the master's sect discover this place and tell them what just happened. But, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on until that time..."
As Liu Xie spoke, he coughed violently a few times again, and several clouds of blood mist were sprayed into the air along with the coughing sound. After saying so many words in a row, Liu Xie's breath became even weaker.
"Young hero, I think you are not a bad person. Can you agree to my request?"
Mu Jingyu vaguely guessed what Liu Xie was going to say next, and was about to refuse. Liu Xie said it immediately without waiting for him to agree.
"I was suddenly attacked, and there was a huge conspiracy in it! Fortunately, the man in black robe saw that I was about to die and told these things. Although I cannot return to Jiuhua Mountain in person to report these things to the master uncle. Fortunately, you showed up in time, can you take me back to Jiuhua Mountain and tell the teacher what happened here?"
Mu Jingyu was just thinking that he would no longer have anything to do with Jiuhua Mountain. The next moment, Liu Xie was pulling him to help him deliver the news.
I thought to myself, "I don't want to get involved in the matters between your sects, lest it delay my major events."
"Uncle Immortal, I am just a mountain villager, but I don't have the ability to help you. See if you can..."
Hearing Mu Jingyu's clean rejection, Liu Xie never expected it. The turbid breath that he had just swallowed surged up again, and he almost died.
"Ahem, young hero, this matter is very difficult! If we can't tell the master in time, I'm afraid there will be another bloody storm in Jiuzhou!"
Maybe Liu Xie thought of this serious consequence, and his heart, which was still struggling to hold on, became even more agitated, and he grabbed Mu Jingyu's hand desperately, for fear that he would refuse again.
Back then, Mo Yunshen was afraid that after Bi Yun was taken away by Yaoming Palace, Jiuzhou would be in trouble again, so he wanted to protect Bi Yun at the risk of his life.
During that period of time, Mu Jingyu naturally knew Mo Yunshen's good intentions. It is precisely because of this that I resent the indifference of various sects from the bottom of my heart.
Now, Liu Xie once again used the same reason to force him to agree to the matter, and Mu Jingyu was in a dilemma for a while.
"That's all. If Uncle Mo were by my side now, he would definitely make me agree."
Mu Jingyu nodded and said, "Since this matter concerns everyone in the world, it is my duty as a young man from the mountains. If you have anything you want me to bring to Jiuhua Mountain, please tell me."
"Okay, great, I really saw the right person!" Xu was in a turbulent mood just now, which made him unable to protect his heart for a moment, and his already pale face became even paler.
Just as he was about to continue speaking, he suddenly felt that the energy protecting his heart was dissipating rapidly. He opened his mouth several times to speak, but a breath was held in his throat, and he was speechless for a while.
"Uncle? Uncle? What do you want to say?"
Mu Jingyu noticed Liu Xie's abnormality and asked anxiously.
Liu Xie opened her mouth and was speechless. She pointed to her waist and after a lot of effort, she uttered a few words: "Take my belt and return to Jiuhua Mountain quickly and tell them, You... You... …quiet……"
Several words of "you" came out in succession, and the rest of the words could no longer be said. His head tilted, he was really dead this time.
"Ah! Uncle, uncle, what is there, what is there! You should explain it clearly!"
Mu Jingyu didn't hear Liu Xie's last word clearly, and thought he was talking about someone. He quickly injected his own energy into Liu Xie's body, hoping to wake him up.
However, Liu Xie was so seriously injured that he could barely hold his breath with a breath of true energy. When this breath of true energy dissipates, there is really no life left.
I knew that Liu Xie was completely dead this time. Although he did not tell the most crucial thing in the end, since Mu Jingyu agreed to him, he would take what happened here back to Jiuhua Mountain.
He simply found some leaves, earth and rocks, and temporarily buried Liu Xie's body. Mu Jingyu took off the badge from his waist and put it into his clothes.
Returning to the mountain village again, he dug dozens of deep pits and buried all the villagers, old and young, at the head of the village. Mu Jingyu found some fruits, scented candles and other things from the house to pay homage to the villagers who had taken care of him for more than ten days.
Nine years ago, when he was still young, although his parents, grandfather and all the young and old in the village were killed by the Dapeng Golden Eagle, he still could not fully understand the sadness of separation between life and death.
Today, I saw that the villagers who had been together day and night for more than ten days were slaughtered by men in black robes again, but I deeply felt this kind of grief.
"Don't worry, I will definitely kill the man in black robe and bring his body to your grave to worship you."
The evening wind howled, and the originally bustling mountain village was completely silent, just like Mujia Village nine years ago.
Early the next morning, Mu Jingyu packed his bags, put on the new clothes that Chun Ya had just sewn for him before he died, locked the doors from house to house, and then found the mountain road and headed west. Walk to Jiuhua Mountain.
Looking at the nine peaks that gradually became clearer, Mu Jingyu suddenly felt filled with emotion.
Six years ago, when he followed Guo Qingshan, Songyang Zhenren and others to Jiuhua Mountain, he had the intention to practice seriously here, practice advanced Taoism in the future, and go out to save Bi Yun.
Who would have thought that just three years later, he would be wronged and almost forced out of Jiuhua Mountain. In the end, because the Nine-Luo Xuanhuang Pendant was knocked down by Master Songyang, he risked his life and jumped into the abyss.
But it was a blessing in disguise. Not only did he swallow the Viper's inner elixir and the King of Vermilion Fruits, but he also obtained the ancient artifact Nine-Year Shining Light Chain.
After leaving the valley, I didn't want to have anything to do with Jiuhua Mountain again. However, fate played tricks on people, and finally accepted Liu Xie's dying request to come back here again and help him bring his message to Tianyang Zhenren.
"I don't know how Brother Qin and Xiaodie are doing. According to their qualifications, their current cultivation levels are probably in the middle stage of Transformation Realm. And Su Yingying, I wonder if she has recovered from her sadness?"
If he had to say who he was most worried about in Jiuhua Mountain, it was not Qin Yunchuan and Shen Mengdie, but Su Yingying, who was secretly interested in him.
Mu Jingyu touched his face while thinking. Six years have passed and he has grown up a lot. The originally childish face has also changed.
"Perhaps, even if I stand in front of them, I'm afraid they won't recognize me. That would be the best, I don't want them to see what I look like now. Maybe, when I break out in Kyushu Mingtang, it’s not too late to get to know them again.”
After laughing at himself in a low voice, he looked up and saw the huge Yuxiao Mountain Gate in front of Jiuhua Mountain.
"Stop, who is coming? Please tell me your name!"
Before Mu Jingyu could reach a mile in front of the mountain gate, two young men wearing Jiuhua Taoist robes rushed out from the Yuxiao Mountain Gate. Each carried a fairy sword on their backs, blocking Mu Jingyu's way.
"You two, I have something important that I need to meet with the head of Jiuhua. Please inform me."
An older disciple on the left shouted, "How dare you, our Jiuhua Mountain is one of the nine sects of the righteous path, and the leader Tianyang Zhenren is even more famous in Jiuzhou. How can you, a young man, see you just by asking?" !"
"A famous sect has a lot of rules."
Mu Jingyu murmured, reached out and took out Liu Xi's token from his arms, raised it to his chest and said, "I have the badge of Liu Xi, a disciple of Chaoyang Peak. I was entrusted by him to carry a message to Jiuhua Mountain." .”
After the two people looked at each other, the older disciple quickly walked closer, took Liu Xie's waist badge, and looked at it carefully.
I saw that this waist card was not big and could be held in one palm. The overall waistband is light green, with a majestic mountain peak carved on the front, exactly like Chaoyang Peak. The two ancient seal characters Jiuhua are engraved on the back, and the small characters Liu Qi are engraved diagonally at the lower corner.
Liu Xie is the seventh disciple of Master Jiuyang. The two characters Liu Qi are exactly his name in Jiuhua Mountain.
After looking over and over, the man determined that the waist card the young man took out was Liu Xie's.
Just when Mu Jingyu thought that he would let him into Jiuhua Mountain after confirming his waist card, the man suddenly raised his sword and put it on his neck.
"Tell me why Master Liu Xie's belt card is in your hands! Where did you get this belt card? Did you assassinate Master Liu Xie!"
Mu Jingyu was startled and said helplessly, "Brother, you also know what kind of cultivation Liu Xie is. How could I, a young boy, possibly assassinate him?"
The man's face turned cold, and he had no intention of believing Mu Jingyu. Instead, he added a little more strength to his hand and said, "How dare you speak so harshly! It seems that you won't be able to tell the truth unless you suffer a little!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the zhenqi suddenly poured into the sword body. As he raised the sword, he wanted to draw a bloody gash on Mu Jingyu's neck.
Mu Jingyu never expected that this man said he would suffer some pain, but the sword in his hand was clearly going to kill him.
In the flash of lightning, Mu Jingyu instinctively turned sideways, and then managed to avoid the life-threatening sword. Even though he was like this, he was still hit by the sword light, leaving a faint trace of blood.
"What do you want to do!"
Before Mu Jingyu could finish his words, the man struck with a sword, forcing him to swallow the rest of his words.
Although he was suddenly attacked, Mu Jingyu's cultivation had finally reached the realm of transformation, and he also realized the Nine Snake Spirit Sword from the viper in the valley. Using his fingers as swords, he managed to fight with this man.
"Hmph, I didn't expect that a young man from the mountains could have such a level of cultivation. It seems that you must have taken advantage of Master Liu Xie's unpreparedness to assassinate him. You said that you stole his badge and wanted to sneak into our Jiuhua Mountain. , what’s your intention!”
Mu Jingyu swung away his long sword with a palm, took a few steps back and cursed, "I'm trying to kill you, you big-headed devil! I worked so hard to get here because I was told by Liu Xie on his deathbed that I need help with something important." He conveyed it. Unexpectedly, before I even entered the mountain gate, I was almost killed by you, a bastard, for being a bad guy."
The man snorted coldly and said, "You are about to die, but you still want to confuse the public with your lies. Look at me, Yuan Fang, chop off your head with a sword to avenge Uncle Liu Xie!"
Just when Yuan Fang was about to kill him, the disciple standing there suddenly shouted loudly, "Senior Brother Yuan, stop!"
