A snow-capped valley surrounded by nothing but bare rocks. Layers upon layers of restrictions surround this place so tightly that not even a fly can fly in.
Even though Ling Bufei had been the young sect master for more than thirty years, this was his first time coming to this place.
——Xuanbing Prison, one of the forbidden areas of the Wuji Sect, houses the demons who have been unable to be eliminated since the Demon-Sealing War and some traitors who committed serious crimes.
"Young Sect Master, please come back!" The elder deacon stopped and looked at Ling Bufei.
Ling Bufei shook his head stubbornly: "No, she hasn't settled down yet."
The elder deacon said: "Going in is the Xuanbing Prison. You don't have the sect leader's order, and according to the sect rules, you are not allowed to step into it."
Ling Bufei was still unwilling: "Mengjin is not a prisoner. She took the overall situation into consideration and voluntarily entered Xuanbing Prison. If she is not settled well, who will be responsible for what happens?"
"This..." The elder deacon saw Bai Mengjin's weak appearance and was in a dilemma for a moment.
"Uncle Zhou." A voice came from outside.
Several people turned around to look, but it was You Yan and Lin Baiyu who came together.
"Nephew You, what are you doing here?"
You Yan took out a token and waved it in front of him: "Uncle Master, although the top spot was not determined in the competition, there are only two people left, the young sect master and me. I have explained to the sect master that even if the reward is I will also give the opportunity to the young sect leader. So you can let him in without worrying about violating the sect rules."
"This..." The deacon elder looked surprised, thought for a moment, and nodded, "Since you have the sect leader's order, I have no reason to stop you."
You Yan laughed and said, "Thank you, Uncle Zhou. My master will treat you to a drink later!"
But the elder deacon smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Hey, I haven't cleared the suspicion yet. Let's wait until the matter is settled!"
The ban on the arena was manipulated, and since he was the host, he was also suspected. Although no one suspected him, the rules were here. After sending Bai Mengjin in, he had to go to the Discipline Hall to cooperate with the investigation.
"Senior Sister You, thank you very much." Ling Bufei nodded gratefully and said apologetically to Lin Baiyu, "Senior Brother Lin, this opportunity was originally yours, but I broke my promise."
Lin Baiyu shook his head: "Senior Sister You asked me, I volunteered."
He paused and said, "If it's convenient for you, Young Sect Leader, please help me take a look at Master to see if he's doing well..."
After saying this, Lin Baiyu stopped, with a hint of ridicule on his face. How can you live well after entering Xuanbing Prison? This is really nonsense.
Ling Bufei replied seriously: "Okay, I will go see Master Song."
In fact, it was against the rules to do so, but the elder deacon pretended that he heard nothing and reminded: "Young sect master, you have to come out in half an hour at most. Otherwise, your body will also be affected by the ten thousand years of mysterious ice."
Speaking of this, Ling Bufei looked at Bai Mengjin with even more distressed eyes: "I know."
The elder deacon immediately activated the restriction, and two old Nascent Souls with white beards and hair appeared out of thin air. They took his token and looked at Bai Mengjin and Ling Bufei again before nodding and taking a step back.
Ling Bufei saluted them, supported Bai Mengjin, and slowly stepped into the Xuanbing Prison.
As soon as they entered the valley, the surrounding environment changed. The deacon elders, You Yan and Lin Baiyu at the door were all gone. The cold wind whistled in my ears, and my whole body was bitingly cold.
Ling Bufei shivered and complained: "How can you bear it when it's so cold?"
"It's okay." Bai Mengjin breathed weakly and took out a fiery red jade pendant. "Uncle Yuan gave me this just now. As long as you wear it with you, it can weaken the influence of Xuan Bing."
"So it can only be weakened, not eliminated, right?" Ling Bufei immediately started trouble.
Bai Mengjin couldn't help but laugh, but he was too weak to even make a sound.
It made Ling Bufei even more uncomfortable.
"Okay, stop talking."
Bai Mengjin nodded, relaxed her body and leaned against him, and was taken in.
On both sides of the valley, under the thick ice and snow, are sealed caves, and each cave contains a prisoner. Some are demons
Boss, there are many traitors.
The two old Nascent Souls led them slowly towards the depths of the valley, leaving lines of footprints in the snow.
Ling Bufei always felt that there were many pairs of eyes staring at him in the dark, and he felt uncomfortable all over. He couldn't help but turn his head and look at a cave.
The cave is deep, with only the forbidden area glowing slightly. He suddenly met a pair of dark eyes, his heart skipped a beat and he let out a muffled groan.
The Nascent Soul guard immediately stopped and shouted: "Young Sect Master, don't look at the prisoner! There are some demons here. Although their magic power has been sealed, they have strange talents and can cause harm to the soul."
Ling Bufei took a deep breath and nodded: "I understand."
The four of them continued walking, and after about a quarter of an hour, they arrived at the foot of a huge rock. It's out of the wind, so it's not that cold.
The Nascent Soul guard opened one of the cell doors: "Go in!" Then he threw out a jade plaque, "Young Sect Master, take this object and call us after you have settled down."
Ling Bufei knew that they were being open-minded and deliberately avoided, so he took the jade token and held it in his hand: "Thank you." Then he helped Bai Mengjin into the cell.
There was a sound of ropes, and the two Nascent Souls locked the cell door, and their figures flickered and disappeared into the wind and snow.
The Black Ice Prison prohibits spiritual energy and makes it impossible to perform martial arts. Likewise, all prying eyes are eliminated here.
Ling Bufei touched the bar at the door to make sure that everything was open, then turned around and said, "Okay."
Bai Mengjin, who was still half-dead leaning on the stone bed just now, immediately opened his eyes and sat up.
"Are you really okay?" Ling Bufei glanced at her up and down with doubt on his face.
"Of course something happened." Bai Mengjin took out the pill and swallowed it, "With so many transformed gods present, do you think my injury is fake?"
"..." Ling Bufei sat next to her, watching her face slowly return to color under the relief of the elixir, and asked with concern, "Is the medicine enough? Why don't you take all of mine."
Bai Mengjin was not polite. He searched through the contents of his Qiankun bag and rearranged the cell.
So, the stone bed was covered with soft blankets, a brocade quilt that looked very warm at first glance, and even two pillows.
Ling Bufei took out the stove and lit the fire while saying, "My uncle's move is so cruel! I didn't expect that he didn't care about Senior Sister Qiu's life at all."
Bai Mengjin looked at him busy working, propped up his chin and said, "He has been possessed by the devil."
Ling Bufei nodded. Although his uncle loves power, he is not so inhumane. His behavior today is enough to show that the one who calls the shots in his body is no longer himself - or in other words, he has been completely obsessed with his mind and has gone astray.
After putting the teapot on the stove, Ling Bufei took some snow. After a while, a gurgling sound came from inside.
After doing all this, he turned around and said, "So, what happened to Senior Sister Qiu?"
