"Senior Brother Jin should have arrived at the sect by this time, right?"
On the way back, Ning Xia suddenly asked.
True Lord Yuan Heng's eyebrows twisted slightly, so fast that she thought it was just an illusion.
"Maybe. It should be almost done by now." Zhenjun Yuanheng said: "What's wrong?"
Ningxia shook her head. I always feel uneasy and unsure of what to do, but when I think about it carefully, I feel that there is no conclusion. He had to shake his head.
"Let's go, go back and repair." After roughly counting the number of people, Zhenjun Yuanheng led a group of Wuhua Sect disciples and disappeared at the corner of the street in the morning light.
Suddenly, the moment she turned around, Ning Xia turned around and looked at the turret. Something seemed to be relieved deep in her heart. Her feelings were so mixed that she couldn't tell what she was feeling at the moment.
At the moment when she was almost out of sight, she suddenly met a pair of eyes, dark and dark, looking deeply at this side, with an unconcealable haze. However, if the body is wrong, nothing can be seen.

"laugh--"
Someone smiled contemptuously, and then disappeared in the air.
"Let's go back too, there are still many...many...things to do."
————————————————
The corner tower exhibition is over, and this journey has come to an end. Some small sects left Xunyang City without even taking a break.
But Ning Xia and others can't leave yet. They have to participate in the public trial about the demon species.
Although the turret exhibition was important, the discovery of the demon species the day before still weighed heavily on their hearts like a stone, making it impossible for everyone to relax.
We still have to postpone it until tomorrow. I really don’t know what they are thinking. After receiving such news from Zhenjun Yuanheng, Ningxia shook her head.
"Miss Ning, there is a young monk at the door asking to see you by name, saying that he is a disciple of the Huyang Sect."
From the Huyang faction? Thanks to that guy Shi. Yesterday I met someone at the market who said he wanted to find time to catch up with old times. Did he find him so quickly? Ningxia was slightly shocked.
"Don't go too far." True Lord Yuanheng glanced at the sword hanging on her waist, waved his hand and let her go.
Ever since the incident with Hua Wuxie, True Lord Yuanheng's sword had been kept with her. After Jin Lin's incident, True Lord Yuanheng became even more worried and almost refused to let them out. But these days I don’t know why I seem to be looser again.
However, thinking about the undercurrent surging in the city today, Ningxia has been obediently following the large army and rarely goes out for personal activities. My spirit is extremely tense, and being trapped in the house is also very boring.
It happened that Xie Shi came to visit. It would be nice to sit down and chat with friends whom I hadn't seen for a long time, and to loosen the tension that had been tightened.
"Sure enough, it's you." Xiao Bu rushed to the temporary living room and saw a tall figure sitting on the guest seat, tilting his head, as if watching Shen Mansion renovate.
"Sister Ning, long time no see, how about coming in to practice?" Canran smiled, her teeth were quite white.
Ning Xia tried hard to control her somewhat subtle expression. She still hasn't gotten used to this brother's new image... Really, why can't she get over it?
"It's not bad. I see that you have changed a lot. Now you are building a foundation. Congratulations. It seems that all the hard work over the years has been in vain..." Ningxia had already discovered the other party's foundation building when they met, but at that time The elders were all here and it was inconvenient to talk about these private things, so Ningxia didn't talk much about it.
The meeting between the two today was much more relaxed and they could talk about anything. The two can be considered old friends who have fought side by side, and Ningxia does not shy away from the changes in each other.
Of course, this rebirth does not refer to a change in his appearance, but a transformation of his entire person.
This transformation had already begun to take shape after the trial on Floating Cloud Island, and now it is manifested in practice.
Ningxia had seen him in his original form, a young master who was well protected by his father. When she first met him at a drinking party, he shyly hid aside and didn't even dare to say a word.
Seeing each other again today is already a completely different situation. That shy and timid young master has long been lost in time. The young monk in front of him with bright eyes, a resolute expression, and neat movements is now Xie Shi.
Really changed.
He told her about what happened back then, his experiences over the years, and the turmoil she had never heard of in these years.
"...My father sent me away forcibly, and when I woke up, I was already in my grandfather's house. I felt something was wrong at the time, and I didn't expect that something like this happened to the sect. The sect was attacked by a demon cultivator, and later I heard that the leader My uncle has passed away. I...well, I can't live in peace every day, for fear that my grandfather will tell me something unbearable when I wake up."
"I was very noisy at that time, hahaha..." As if he remembered something funny, Xie Shi couldn't help laughing again. It is estimated that this person has used all seventy-two escape tactics back then, but it seems that they have not been successful.
"I made a big fuss, and my grandfather was annoyed, so he asked my uncle to lead me to practice. Their family has always been good at body training, and they thought they could sharpen my energy, so they coaxed me to practice."
"As a result..." Xie Shi was dumbfounded: "I no longer have the energy to think about running away. I don't have enough time to wake up and go to sleep every day, so I don't have the energy to think about those things that are there. Although I am still worried, but I can only think about it.”
"Later I learned that so many things happened in the sect. I have been studying at my grandfather's house these years and was not allowed to return to the sect. I only went back a few years ago..."
Zhenjun Lingche really worked hard to protect his little son. When the true king of Zhaohe died and the true king of Taihe came to power, the Huyang faction was swayed by the storm. Although they have developed well in recent years, the hardships may only be known to those who are truly at the center of the storm.
Xie Shi said some of what he knew, but there was also a lot that was not clear to outsiders. It hasn't been easy for him these past few years.
Physical training must also be a way for him to relieve stress. If you want to become stronger, you must work hard.
"I know that Senior Sister must be wondering about my drastic change in appearance, and I won't hide it from you. In fact, I don't really like this change either. It's too ugly..."
But there was nothing he could do, could he tell others? This was his own choice. It's not that he likes this image, but that he has to maintain it, for the time being. If he's not careful, he might get himself into trouble. Really??
In order to survive for a long time and complete the mission, he must continue like this. Otherwise, there is no need to wait for someone to kill him, he may destroy himself without anyone even having to take action.
Every gain must come with a loss, so the ancients sincerely do not deceive me.
When he was weak before, he didn't have to worry about his life. He could just live under the wings of his father and brother. But when he gained power and had the possibility of infinite power, he began to face threats to his life all the time.
