"Xiao Qi, take care of me for a while."
The middle-aged man in brocade robes spoke to the young man in gray robes.
He smiled and nodded to the cultivators in the hall who were looking at him, and walked out of the counter without waiting for the boy in gray to respond, and headed towards the Jade Terrace Waterside Pavilion.
The young man in gray clothes was serving the spiritual meal to Gu Qing. Hearing this, he was about to respond when he saw the back of his shopkeeper leaving the Yutai Waterside Pavilion.
"Hey...what happened so fast?"
The boy in gray clothes muttered.
Immediately, the young man in gray clothes saw the white-haired young man in black clothes sitting in front of him. He silently put down a few low-grade spiritual stones, got up, and walked towards the Yutai Waterside Pavilion.
"Eat when you come back."
Gu Qing dropped a word.
The moment Gu Qing stood up, he glanced at the cultivators dining in the hall, but he didn't see anyone with a different expression.
After leaving the Yutai Waterside Pavilion, Gu Qing's figure seemed to turn into a ball of white mist, far behind the middle-aged man in brocade robes.
When we were watching a theater in Qingyang Town, the sky had already darkened. It was already dark at this time, the moon was in the sky, and a thin red mist appeared on the edge of Chihu Lake.
The middle-aged man in brocade robes walked quickly in front, turning into a water corridor from time to time. Gu Qing loomed far behind in the mist, and his figure was shrouded in dark yellow light.
Just now, he had activated the Yellow Wind Talisman and was walking through the air, following the middle-aged man in brocade robes in front of him.
The Tongqiao Lingdan was of great importance, so he would not be stingy with a mere Yellow Wind Talisman. The monks below became less frequent, and the middle-aged people in brocade robes stayed away from Chihufang City.
Gu Qing, who followed the middle-aged man in brocade robes all the way, clenched the Snow Flower Sword in his hand.
He sensed several auras of other monks, who were walking close to the ground in the light red vapor, tracking the middle-aged man in brocade robes.
"There should be no foundation-building monks."
Gu Qing's eyes were cold.
…
In the light red mist.
A group of three people flew close to the ground, tracking the middle-aged man in brocade robes.
These three people, two men and one woman, are all in the middle stage of Qi refining. The one with the highest cultivation level is a man with a nose ring carrying a broadsword. The cultivation of this man with a nose ring has reached the eighth level of Qi refining.
"Brother Gui, what treasure did Liu Changshan really get?"
The female cultivator next to the big man with the nose ring asked.
"Ha! I have known Liu Changshan for so many years, but I still don't know what Liu Changshan's urine is. A while ago, Liu Changshan came to me to ask how many spiritual stones the orifice-opening elixir could be exchanged for." The man with the nose ring sneered and responded, "At that time I was just thinking, the Alchemy Sect said that the elixir of enlightenment fell in the water system, could it be that Liu Changshan got this treasure when he went to the fishing ground to buy spiritual fish? Looking at it now, it turned out to be true."
"Brother Gui, is it really that spiritual elixir of enlightenment?!"
The male cultivator at the sixth level of Qi Refining beside asked in a low voice.
"How do I know? If we capture Liu Changshan, everyone will know about it!" The man with the nose ring responded displeasedly.
"If it really is a spiritual elixir, we will be very rich." A strange light flashed in the eyes of the male cultivator at the sixth level of Qi Refining beside him, and he said another sentence.
"Stop talking nonsense..." The big man with the nose ring couldn't help but angrily yelled, and then his expression changed slightly, and he looked forward with bright eyes, "Then Liu Changshan stopped, this place is far away from Chihufang City, we will catch up. Go up and capture Liu Changshan, remember to fight quickly, cut off Liu Changshan's hands and feet, and cut them into sticks, don't let Liu Changshan get the chance to contact the Liu family!"
Without saying a word, the three of them flew with all their strength toward the spot where the middle-aged man in brocade robes was staying in the light red mist ahead.
It flew no more than a few dozen feet, and the back of the middle-aged man in brocade robes was extremely clear. The man with the ring in his nose raised his eyebrows and shouted loudly.
"Bah!"
He directly used the power of his spiritual consciousness to attack the middle-aged man in brocade robes in front of him. Without waiting for the impact of the power of his spiritual consciousness, he suddenly stepped on his feet, making his body half a foot shorter. Pulling out, the broadsword with cold light came out of its sheath, and turned into sword light and slashed forward.
The man with the nose ring turned sideways and drew the knife. Almost in the blink of an eye, the light of the knife fell diagonally on the leg of the middle-aged man in brocade robes.
But at this moment.
A burst of powerful force poured into the whole body of the middle-aged man in brocade robes, turning into a deep golden robe and erupting towards the surroundings. The impact of the consciousness of the big man with a nose ring was eliminated, the sword light was shattered, and his figure became more... It was the arrogant power carried by this golden armor that pushed him several feet backward.
"He Fangdao...uh!"
Reluctantly standing still, the man with the nose ring shouted in a deep voice.
But I never thought that I haven't finished speaking yet.
The tip of the sword, flashing with cold light, came out from the chest of the big man with the nose ring and pricked the flesh. The big man with the nose ring felt his vision go dark, and a burst of blood spurted out from his chest. He turned his head with difficulty, his eyes fierce. Staring at the male cultivator at the sixth level of Qi Refining to the side and behind.
"Brother, I'm sorry, our fate is over."
The male cultivator at the sixth level of Qi Refining said with a smile. He twisted his hand vigorously, kicked hard at the lower back of the big man with the nose ring, and pulled out the flying sword.
The big man with the nose ring flew out a few feet like a dead dog and lay on the ground, his body twitching from time to time and his expression stagnant.
The female cultivator who had previously called him 'Brother Gui' was suddenly shocked when she saw that her brother Gui, whom she relied on, was lying dead so quickly. She quickly retreated towards the direction of Chihufang City without saying a word. The Qi Refining Brother The male cultivator on the sixth floor glanced at the woman, first clasped his fists in a respectful salute to where the middle-aged man in brocade robes was facing, and then chased after the escaping female cultivator.
The middle-aged man in a golden robe, where Liu Changshan was facing, stood a beautiful female cultivator in a golden red robe.
The brows of this beautiful beauty are relaxed.
She looked at Liu Changshan, with a thrilling and charming smile on her face: "Friend Liu Dao is here today, he must have already thought about dedicating the pill to the Holy Cult."
"Is there really a way for you to purify my daughter's spiritual roots?"
Liu Changshan's breathing was slightly rapid.
The big man with the nose ring just now was a friend he had known for many years, at least that's what he thought before.
But this friend who he has known for many years was about to kill him with a knife just now. Can this strange female cultivator whom he has only seen a few times really keep her promise? Will he and even his whole family be silenced in order to prevent the secret of this all-knowing elixir from being leaked?
unknown.
"The Holy Cult naturally has a way to purify your daughter's spiritual roots so that she can practice." The beautiful female cultivator opened her red lips lightly.
She felt Liu Changshan's uneasiness and felt contempt in her heart.
The treasure mountain is empty and you don’t know yourself.
The only way she knew that could purify the spiritual roots and enable those who couldn't practice to practice was to take the Spiritual Pill.
Liu Changshan breathed a sigh of relief.
He had made a decision before coming, so why should he continue to hesitate?
"I can hand over the Spiritual Pill to you, but you need to make a heavenly oath to purify my daughter's spiritual roots so that she can practice." Liu Changshan said in a deep voice.
"good."
The beautiful female cultivator responded immediately.
It's not like there are no ways to circumvent this heavenly oath, but the cost is staggering. However, since she could get the spiritual elixir of enlightenment and sell it to a big shot whose heirs couldn't practice it, the small cost was simply insignificant, so she agreed very simply.
…
Gu Qing's figure was hidden in the light red water vapor, and he quietly observed the two people below who were taking the oath of heaven.
His expression was cold.
The Snow Flower Sword in his hand is ready to be unsheathed at any time.
Just wait for the right time.
The female cultivator in the golden red robe was at the eleventh level of Qi Refining, and she gave Gu Qing a hint of danger.
Don't be careless.
In order to prevent being sensed, Gu Qing did not focus on this woman. He just used the corner of his eye to keep this woman in his sight.
His eyes were fixed on the middle-aged man in brocade robes.
The scene that just happened replayed in his mind.
The golden Phi Lian can defend against spiritual attacks, and with great power, it can swat away the eighth-level Qi Refining monks from a few feet away like a fly.
Gu Qing took out a Mountain Shaking Talisman, a Nearest Talisman, and a Golden Light Talisman, and held them between his fingers, his expression becoming increasingly cold.
Between his brows, his ice-blue vertical eyes were ready to strike.
First hit, be quick.
Apart from speed, all other considerations can be discarded.
If the first blow fails, then use the Mountain Shaking Talisman and the Five Qi Sword Technique to kill this woman in the shortest possible time.
Gu Qing's breathing stopped completely. He was ready to use the blood-burning technique to consume the newly recovered blood essence.
One breath...two breaths...
The female cultivator in the golden-red robe in the distance was nearing the end of her heavenly vow, but she still couldn't notice anything.
At a certain moment, Gu Qing's figure moved.
Zheng!
The Snow Flower Sword was unsheathed.
At the same time, Gu Qing activated the closeness talisman on his fingertips, and the distance of a hundred feet passed by in a blink of an eye. In an instant, Gu Qing had reached the side of the female cultivator in the golden red robe.
The cold light spread from the Snow Flower Sword in Gu Qing's hand, turning into blood in an instant, and the ice blue vertical eyes between Gu Qing's eyebrows immediately appeared.
The power of freezing spreads in all directions.
The figure of the beautiful female cultivator trembled, and golden robes condensed from her body. However, affected by this freezing force, the spiritual power in her body became stagnant.
Snow fell like goose feathers in front of her eyes, and the sky and earth were completely white. Her eyes were a little dazed for a moment.
This trance can already determine her fate.
Gu Qing's eyes showed a ruthless look.
The appearance of the woman in front of him was truly the only one he had ever seen in his life.
Even though he is one hundred and twenty years old, Gu Qing has seen countless women, but not half of them can compare with the girl in front of him.
But his sword showed no mercy.
Qingxi Sword Technique, Zhefeng Sword!
The stunning woman was in a trance and saw a piece of snowflake in the vast white sky and earth, suddenly bursting out with a white cold light.
Click!
The cold light fell.
In the light red water mist, the injured body was flat, and the upper body slid forward. The beautiful female cultivator's eyes were glazed over. She didn't even show her shock, and she died under Gu Qing's sword. She died simply. neat.
Gu Qing sheathed his sword, and the ice-blue vertical eyes between his brows disappeared.
