At the back of Puyun Mountain, several Puyun Mountain experts gathered together and discussed in low voices. One of them asked, "Are you sure he didn't bring the Qingming layman and that spiritual beast with him?"
One person nodded and said: "It's absolutely true. I saw it with my own eyes. He took the two little girls to the Tianque Peak in the east, and the others did not leave."
One person asked: "Third Elder, do we want to take action?"
One person nodded and said: "Half of the seven days mentioned by the leader have passed. This may be our only chance. No matter how powerful Li Xiuping is, he is now seriously injured and his strength is very low. At this time, he is heading to Tianque alone. Mountain, then we will let Tianque Mountain become his burial place."
One person hesitated for a moment and said, "But isn't this too obvious? He knew we were going to assassinate him, but he still went to Tianque Peak arrogantly. No matter how you look at it, it looks like he did it on purpose."
The third elder said: "There is an isolation formation on Tianque Peak. Even if he really uses himself as bait, the Qingming layman will be too late to save him. If this happens, even if we die, our souls will also die. Only by following Lord Demon God forever can Puyun Mountain be saved."
Everyone nodded at the same time and headed towards Tianque Peak in the east.
…
Li Xiuping's residence.
Master Huo Ling looked puzzled and said: "Bulk, since he knew there was a problem with Tianque Peak, why did he go there alone? In his current situation, even if there is no problem in self-protection, but with two children, I'm afraid... …”
The layman Qingming said with a smile: "Since he did this, he must have his own reasons and must be absolutely sure."
Master Huo Ling frowned and said: "I just don't understand. Since Puyunshan has agreed and has already started to deal with it, why should he put himself in danger?"
The layman Qingming replied: "Of course it is to avoid future troubles. Puyun Mountain will inevitably have a lot of involvement with Guanchao Academy in the future, and any changes in Puyun Mountain will directly affect Guanchao Academy. As Guanchao Academy, he The junior uncle of the academy, he is taking the lead in this matter, so he naturally wants to ensure that nothing goes wrong. Now that he is using himself as bait, he can naturally draw out those dissatisfied people. If not, these people will not be affected by my shock for the time being. Take action, but it will definitely become a big hidden danger in the future.”
Having said this, he looked up at the sky and said quietly: "Some things are deeply ingrained in some people's hearts, and it cannot be changed by changing them. There is no other way but to make them disappear completely."
Master Huo Ling looked at Tianque Peak in the east and couldn't help but feel worried.
…
"Master, what are we doing here?" At the foot of Tianque Peak, Chu Yan looked up at the towering mountain peaks in front of her and asked curiously.
Master never brought them out to play before. Even if they got bored, it was the two old grandfathers who stayed with them. This situation has never happened before, so Chu Yan felt that Master definitely didn't bring them here to play. of. Furthermore, Que Peak didn't look like anything interesting this day. Instead, it looked eerie and scary.
Li Xiuping also raised his head and glanced at Tianque Peak, and said casually: "Look at the spiritual beasts."
Chu Yan and Yang Erni were both stunned.
Or Chu Yan said: "Is there a spiritual beast here?"
Li Xiuping moved forward and said, "The Prime Minister said there is one, and it is the strongest spiritual beast in Puyun Mountain."
Chu Yan hurriedly ran to keep up with Li Xiuping and asked, "Is the master's mount powerful?"
Li Xiuping smiled and said: "Of course it's a little bit close, but it's almost there."
The little girl's eyes suddenly became more expectant, and her steps suddenly became much brisker. As for Yang Erni, she still looked indifferent. Even if she had any thoughts in her heart, she would hide them deep in her heart and would not show them easily.
Tianque Peak has a resounding name, but the peak is actually not very high. At least among the peaks of Puyun Mountain, it cannot even squeeze into the top three. However, due to the special location of Tianque Peak, Tianque Peak is always dark and cold, and it is only available for two hours in the morning. There is sunlight.
Now it is winter again, which naturally adds to the cold feeling.
However, there are some water-attributed spirit beasts who like to stay in this kind of place, and among them is one of the sect-protecting spirit beasts of Puyun Mountain.
According to the Prime Minister of Puyun Mountain, this spiritual beast already has the strength to transform into a god. It is at the same level as the clear water unicorn. It is also one of the centers in charge of the sect-protecting formation of Puyun Mountain.
If it is a human monk, Li Xiuping, a strong man in the God Transformation stage, can barely handle it now, but it is really difficult to deal with the spirit beasts in the God Transformation stage, not to mention that he also brings Chu Yan and Yang Erni with him. If there is a fight, Li Xiuping will definitely not be able to take care of it. . In addition, there is a large isolation formation on Tianque Peak. If something happens, it will be difficult for layman Qingming to detect it and rush there at the first time.
Although the Prime Minister of Puyun Mountain has said that these spiritual beasts will not take action easily, unless it is when the survival of Puyun Mountain is critical, it will be difficult even for him, the leader, to give orders, but he still has to prepare for the worst. .
Before the cultivation is abolished, no matter who they are, people like Puyunshan cannot believe everything they say.
After entering Tianque Peak, the cold feeling became more and more intense, so much so that even Li Xiuping found it a little unbearable, let alone the two little girls Chu Yan and Yang Erni. They started complaining after not leaving for a while. Li Xiuping He took out two pills for them to take respectively, while he took a sip of wine.
As he continued to climb higher, Li Xiuping actually didn't know where the spiritual beast was. He came here just to give those guys in Puyun Mountain an opportunity to take advantage of him. But until now, he hasn't found any movement from the other party. If he continues like this, Is it possible that we really need to walk through the entire Tianque Peak to find that spiritual beast?
At this moment, the master and apprentice Li Xiuping walked to a piece of grass. Li Xiuping stopped and let the two little girls rest for a while.
Chu Yan found a piece of relatively dry grass and sat down. While squeezing her calf, she asked, "Master, how long will it take?"
Li Xiuping shook his head and said, "I don't know either. The Prime Minister only said that there are spiritual beasts here, not where they are."
Chu Yan frowned and said, "Then don't we have to walk the entire mountain?"
Li Xiuping nodded, smiled and asked, "Can't you walk anymore?"
Chu Yan glanced at Yang Erni and said with a smile: "That's not true. If we just walk like this, we're afraid we won't have to go until dark. Then we'll be hungry."
Li Xiuping took out some prepared food from the Qiankun bag and said, "Share it with your senior sister."
Chu Yan took the food and gave half of it to Yang Erni. Yang Erni took it and started eating. Chu Yan looked at the food in her hand, then looked at Li Xiuping, then divided another half of the food in her hand and handed it to Li Xiuping. Leveling.
Li Xiuping was a little stunned. He didn't expect that the little girl would do such a thing. He couldn't help but feel warm in his heart. At the same time, he looked at Yang Erni aside, who happened to be looking this way too.
Li Xiuping looked at Chu Yan again, shook his head and said with a smile: "You go ahead and eat. Your master is also half an immortal after all. It will be fine if you don't eat or drink for ten and a half months."
After saying this, Yang Erni obviously breathed a sigh of relief, and Li Xiuping saw all this, but he didn't say much. Instead, he found a place to sit down, channeling the sword intention in his body, and feeling the surrounding situation at the same time.
"Master Li is indeed a well-known figure in the world of cultivation. After so many assassinations, he still dares to come to Tianque Peak alone." After a while, a voice sounded.
Li Xiuping opened his eyes and saw a group of strong men from Puyun Mountain approaching. There were five of them in total, and their auras were not weak. However, in Li Xiuping's current situation, he could only see the auras of three people. The other two could not be seen. They were either at the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage or had reached the Divine Transformation Stage.
Chu Yan and Yang Erni walked up to Li Xiuping, obviously knowing that these people came with bad intentions, and looked solemn.
Li Xiuping stood up from the ground, patted the weeds on his clothes, and said, "The number of people is much smaller than I thought."
The five people were all stunned. They had suspected that Li Xiuping did it deliberately, but now that they heard this, their suspicions were naturally verified.
One of them snorted coldly: "Don't be pretentious. This is Tianque Peak. The terrain of Puyun Mountain forms a natural barrier. After being transformed by Puyun Mountain, it can be opened all year round even without using any resources. So, If anything happens here, outsiders will not notice it at all.”
Li Xiuping nodded and said: "Your boss told me when I came here. I am really curious that there is such a place in the world, so I can't help but come and take a look. As for whether the outside world can detect what happened here, I don't know. Why do you care, because I lured you out on purpose."
"Young Master Li is really very confident. Yes, Young Master Li was indeed very powerful before. If he were in his prime, even if I had ten more courages, I would never dare to attack Young Master Li. But now that Young Master Li is seriously injured, Lian Yu It's difficult to fly, and there are no strong guards around me. I really don't know how Mr. Li can leave this Tianque Peak." The third elder said coldly.
Li Xiuping smiled and said: "Even the Demon Lord you admire couldn't kill me personally. I'm also very curious. How dare you, the demon bastards, dare to shout and kill in front of me? Yes. Are you relying on your own unattractive cultivation, or is it the secret method of the demons that you have practiced, or is it the spiritual beast on Tianque Peak?"
After saying this, Li Xiuping thought, and the Taoist fairy treasure appeared out of thin air, enveloping Chu Yan and Yang Erni.
Seeing Li Xiuping sacrifice the Immortal Treasure directly, the strong men of Puyun Mountain suddenly had heavy expressions on their faces, but Li Xiuping felt bitter.
If it were before, why would he take these people seriously? Just take out all the immortal treasures and you can easily kill these people. But now there is only one piece left, and it has to be used to protect the two apprentices, which can be considered extremely desolate.
Li Xiuping raised his hand, and the wooden sword he had prepared for Chu Yan and Yang Erni appeared in his hand.
He actually had to use two wooden swords to deal with so many strong men. It was not that he looked down upon these strong men from Puyun Mountain, but that he really only had wooden swords to use now.
A person who has entered the world of cultivation with countless immortal treasures, but now he only has wooden swords to use, which is really a bit disappointing...
