"Haha, misunderstanding?" The man sneered.
Seeing that the other party had no intention of continuing to take action, Senior Brother Liu climbed up from the ground with great difficulty: "If nothing happens to you fellow Taoist, I will go back first."
"It's not impossible to leave if you want. As long as you help me with one more thing, I'll let you go."
"Do you have any other instructions, Fellow Daoist Tao?" Senior Brother Liu's heart sank.
"It's nothing. It's very simple for you, just..."
"What!" Senior Brother Liu exclaimed in horror, with a look of embarrassment on his face: "My fellow Taoist, this is inappropriate. If the sect finds out, I will be doomed."
"Hmph, do you think you have a choice now? Either they die or you die. It's up to you." The man snorted coldly and said a little impatiently.
Hearing these words, Senior Brother Liu couldn't help but tremble and shudder. He has been practicing for many years to get to where he is now. If he was asked to die, he would definitely not be willing. After all, no one would be willing to die after becoming an immortal cultivator.
As the saying goes, it is better to die than to live. How could he be willing to die before he has lived enough?
After weighing the pros and cons, he chose the former, "Junior Brother Shen, Junior Brother Qin, and Junior Brother Qi, I'm sorry."
Then a cruel look flashed across his face, and he said to the man: "As long as fellow Taoist can let me go, I am willing to help you get rid of them."
"Hahaha, this is right!" The man was very satisfied with Senior Brother Liu's move.
He paused and looked at Senior Brother Liu: "But who knows if you are being hypocritical and a snake to me just to save your life."
"What do you mean by this, fellow Taoist? Since ancient times, I, Liu, have always said what I say and do what I say."
"Really? Since you are so sincere, why not hand over your soul first." The man said calmly and expressionlessly.
Senior Brother Liu was stunned and felt cold in his heart. If he handed over his soul, his life and death would be at the mercy of the other party.
"Why don't you want to?" The man looked at Senior Brother Liu who was stunned on the spot.
Then he looked at his palm again, and said with a little meaning, "Are you saying what you just said just to deceive me?"
The other party's words are very clear that as long as you hand over your soul, you can live. If not, you will only die with one word!
As the person involved, Senior Brother Liu certainly understood the meaning of this sentence, but he had no choice but to surrender in order to survive.
He gritted his teeth and forced out his soul, which fell into the man's hand. The man was very satisfied when he saw the soul falling into his hand.
"Go and don't forget what I told you!"
…
"Senior Brother Liu, why did you suddenly think of calling me and Senior Brother Qin to inspect the cave together today?" Qi Li looked at Senior Brother Liu and said.
"Haha, this is not what happened to Junior Brother Hong. I think it would be better for a few people to patrol together so that they can take care of each other." Senior Brother Liu said with a cheerful smile.
"Eh? Why don't you see Junior Brother Shen coming out?" Qin An said a little confused when he saw that Shen Luo was not seen.
"I don't know. I just sent him the transmission note. I guess he didn't come out because he was at a critical juncture in his cultivation." Senior Brother Liu said thoughtfully.
"Well, in that case, let the three of us go first." Qin An said.
In this way, Senior Brother Liu, Qi Li, and Qin An walked towards the entrance of the cave together, but Senior Brother Liu fell behind them at some point.
When the two people in front of him were not paying attention, he showed a ferocious look on his face. Suddenly, he raised his sleeves and a spiritual light flew out diagonally, hitting the two people on their backs.
The unprepared two were caught off guard and were hit by Senior Brother Liu's attack. They both fell to the ground, lifeless.
Looking at the bodies of these two people, a trace of guilt flashed across Senior Brother Liu's face. There was no way he could do it because he was forced to do so.
After calming himself down, he took away the storage bags of the two people with a wave of his hand, and burned the bodies of the two people before leaving.
"As long as I get rid of him again, my mission will be completed." Senior Brother Liu murmured to himself, then turned around and walked towards the sinking cave.
Not long after, his figure appeared on the periphery of the sinking cave, looking at the transmission notes floating on the periphery of the cave.
There was a weird smile on his face, and he took back the transmission talisman with a wave of his hand.
"Boom! Boom!"
Senior Brother Liu stood in front of the door of the cave and knocked twice. When there was no response from inside, he pressed his hand on the door.
The light in his palm flashed, and the restrictions at the entrance of the cave began to gradually disintegrate.
And Shen Luo, who was practicing in the cave, was startled by the knock on the door and recovered from his practice.
Just when he was wondering who came to him at this time, he realized that the restrictions in the cave were slowly being broken down.
You must know that the cave restrictions created by Taiqing Sect for the disciples who guard the magic cave are generally not too weak, but they are not easily broken.
This intruder actually broke through so easily. For those who break into the cave without permission, no matter who the person is or what their identity is.
Those who break into other people's caves without permission must be people with bad intentions.
He flipped his hand and took out a jade plate, looked out from the forbidden area through the jade plate, and found that it was Senior Brother Liu standing outside the door of his cave.
"I wonder why Senior Brother Liu is here. Could it be that he wants to kill someone and silence him? I promised him that I would not tell anyone about his collection of demonic energy." He thought in his mind.
He looked at the entrance of the cave, which was uncertain and could collapse at any time. It was hard to say whether it was a misunderstanding.
But the fact that the other party broke into his cave without permission showed that he might be trying to kill someone and silence him. Thinking of this, he quickly calmed down.
Shen Luo is not a soft-hearted person. He will kill those who want to harm him. He patted his storage bag and took out the high-grade magic weapon, the Fire Dragon Knife.
Now that he is in the late stage of Qi refining, it is not as difficult as before to activate the high-grade magic weapon.
But even so, with his current spiritual power, he still couldn't hold on for too long.
To be on the safe side, he also took out a few pills to restore spiritual power and put them in his mouth.
As soon as his spiritual power was exhausted, he would immediately swallow the pill to restore the spiritual power he had consumed.
After a while, the door of the cave made a "squeak!" sound. The forbidden light flickered and then went out. The door was pushed open from the outside.
The moment Senior Brother Liu opened the door of the cave, he began to make hand gestures to prepare for a magical power, hoping to sneak attack Shen Luo who was still practicing.
Before he could use his magical power, he saw a fiery red sword light emitting endless heat and attacking him.
"ah!"
There was a scream in the cave, and then Senior Brother Liu was seen flying out of the cave in a very embarrassed manner.
Senior Brother Liu fell to the ground. His chest was attacked by the fire dragon knife, and blood spurted out like a pillar.
His clothes inside were instantly dyed red, and his complexion instantly became as pale as paper.
He endured the severe pain and covered the wound with one hand, and immediately chanted a hemostatic spell in his mouth to stop the bleeding.
