Li Qier's ancestor was a founding hero and a first-grade marquis personally granted by the late emperor. The Li family has produced many generals and heroes before, but now the trend of cultivating immortals is prevalent, and most military generals are cultivators. Therefore, starting from Li Qier's grandfather, the old Marquis, there was only one Marquis in this Marquis Mansion, and he had long been excluded from the power of the powerful in the capital.
Li Qier's father, Marquis Li, pursued immortality blindly. He stayed away from the court and ignored the secular world. He became a disciple of the Wuji Immortal Master of Wangyou Wuji Guan and became a lay disciple of Wangyou Wuji Guan.
Marquis Li married his junior sister, the only daughter of the lord of Liangzhou City, as his wife when he was forty years old. After their marriage, they gave birth to Li Qi'er. He then searched everywhere for ways and methods of immortality. He traveled abroad all year round and seldom returned home. Mansion. In the huge Marquis Mansion, only Li Qi'er lived with her servants. After a long time, Li Qi'er got used to this kind of life, but she didn't want her parents to really leave her one day...
Li Qier has been unsupervised since she was a child, and she has become even more unruly when she grows up. She often disguises herself as a man and lives among the lower classes of Liangzhou City. She and Li Kuisheng met while making money in a gambling house. Li Qi'er disguised herself as a man and forced Li Kuisheng to become his brother, but Li Kuisheng couldn't help but had to comply. In fact, Li Kuisheng recognized that Li Qier was a girl from the first time they met. After he and she became brothers with different surnames, Li Kuisheng recognized her as his "sister-in-law" and took care of her on weekdays.
On the day when the Li family suffered a tragedy, Li Kuisheng sent the playful Li Qier home. The Li family and his wife fell in a pool of blood. They knew that Li Kuisheng was Li Qier's adopted brother. They didn't come home often, they always felt that he had brought their daughter away, and they despised him in their hearts. But now that the two of them were dying, leaving only their daughter alive, and no one else around, it was really a helpless move to leave Li Kuisheng alone.
That night, the Li family and his wife hid Li Qier's secrets and made Li Kuisheng swear: From now on, he will treat Li Qier as his own daughter, and he will not have any wrong thoughts about Li Qier beyond the father and daughter. They also told him to treat Li Qier as his own daughter. Don't let Li Qier cultivate immortality.
Li Kuisheng knew that the cause of death of the Li family and his wife was unknown, and Li Qier could no longer stay in the Marquis Mansion. Since then, the two of them changed their faces, left the land of tigers and wolves in Xiliang, traveled far away from home, and came to the relatively peaceful and stable Wuyou Town, where they started making swords for a living. But fate plays tricks on people, and now Wuyou Town is no longer comfortable, and the world is in turmoil. How can the eggs be completed after the nest is overturned?
When Li Qi'er was young, she became friends with an old Taoist priest. Although this person did not reveal his identity, he was indeed an immortal master of Wangyou Wuji Guan. Although Li Qier did not formally become a disciple with that immortal master, she could still be regarded as a registered disciple.
Zhao Baier heard about Li Qier's life experience from Li Kuisheng and him and Ji Beichen. After Li Kuisheng knew that Zhao Baier was a student of Wangyou Wuji Guan, he did not hide anything from the two of them. Zhao Baier also didn't expect that Li Qier's life experience was so miserable, and since he was the young ancestor of Wangyou Wuji Guan, Li Qier's "evil" parents were from the same sect as himself, so he should help her.
Zhao Baier thought like this, and at this moment he couldn't help but consider Li Qier's safety: Li Qier's parents were killed in Liangzhou, and Li Qier followed Li Kuisheng out of Xiliang that night. If he knew that she had returned to Liangzhou City, then The person who killed her parents will definitely be aware of it, and then Li Qier's safety...
"I know what you're thinking. Now that I'm back in this land of tigers and wolves, I won't be afraid. It's better if they come. I'll kill one if they come, and I'll kill two of them if they come!" Li Qier's eyes were firm. Over the years, She and Li Kuisheng tried to minimize their friendship with people, just because they were afraid that the gang would find her. Now that she had returned to Xiliang and had practiced sword skills with her master, she no longer wanted to live in hiding.
"You don't want your life? Master Li..." Although Zhao Bai'er can understand her pain, they are in the open and the enemy is in the dark. What's more, he has just reached the expulsion stage and even his sword control skills are not stable.
Although Li Qier's swordsmanship is powerful, it can be used against mortals, but she may not be able to withstand even one move against a Golden Core monk. And before leaving, Ji Beichen repeatedly told him: After arriving in Xiliang, he must try to find Li Qier and protect her!
"Who cares about my life and death?" Li Qier smiled bitterly. Her parents were no longer alive, and her friends and relatives were avoiding suspicion for fear of being implicated. But the only sworn brother she cared about...
Li Qier shook her head when she thought of this. She also wanted to be a happy ordinary person. She was indeed very happy in the past, with no moral constraints and no hiding... On the night her parents were killed, she lost the shelter in her life and even lost the only person she loved in her life!
"You can't joke when your life is at stake. Please follow me to forget about Wuji Guan first. We will discuss other matters in the long run!" Zhao Bai'er did not say any more. He was afraid that if he said too much, Li Qi'er would become more pessimistic and impulsive. He took her now. The Wuji View of Recollection and Forgetfulness is the only feasible way.
Seeing Zhao Baier hesitate to speak, Li Qier knew that Zhao Baier probably knew about her affair with Li Kuisheng. Imagine Li Kuisheng shyly and stubbornly telling outsiders the true relationship between the two. Li Qier couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth and chuckle. A warm current surged in her heart. That "pedantic" man was still worried about her!
Although Li Qier could guess how worried Li Kuisheng would be after she left! She didn't have the temperament to run away willfully. She had some things to do when she returned to Xiliang this time, but the things she had to do were a bit dangerous, so she pretended to be angry and ran out.
Li Qier didn't know how to start after entering Xiliang, but she didn't want to meet Zhao Baier in the post house. At the moment, Li Qi'er is no longer arguing, and plans to go to Wangyou Wuji Temple with Zhao Bai'er before making any plans.
Speaking of which, it was quite a chance for Zhao Baier to join Wangyou Wuji Temple. The Zhao family in Cangzhou City had no contact with Wangyou Wuji Guan before. Zhao Baier's immortal fate was all the work of Zhao Baier's uncle, Zhao Ji. Even Zhao Baier's apprenticeship letter was written by Zhao Ji himself.
Among the many immortal sects in the four states, Zhao Ji chose Wangyou Wuji Guan for his nephew Zhao Baier because the exercises of Wangyou Wuji Guan were mainly defensive and more suitable for practicing by soldiers guarding the city, especially the unique skills of Wangyou Wuji Guan. The formation was very suitable for defending the city. After various considerations, Zhao Baier was admitted to the Wangyou Wuji Temple.
It's just that Zhao Bai'er learned the Wangyou Wuji Guan technique very thoroughly, but he didn't understand the essence of the formation technique, so he finally owed some heat. He was also very anxious about this matter.
Since Youzhou was relieved of its difficulties, Zhao Bai'er suddenly felt that the situation in the mortal world and the world of cultivation has become turbulent. The Huan Mie Sect has secretly colluded with many immortal sects and demon sects. Duke Chen, the lord of Youzhou City, is not a peaceful master either. His adopted daughter Chen Yinger's personal visit to Wuyou Town is the best proof.
Chen Ying'er's trip was just to explore the reality of Cangzhou City. Thinking of this, Zhao Bai'er secretly rejoiced: Fortunately, Ah Chen is back now, otherwise there would be only him and Mu Qing in Cangzhou City. Regardless of their power and cultivation, they would not be able to compete with each other. To contend with!
Zhao Bai'er and Li Qier rode their horses quickly without saying anything, and finally arrived at the foot of Wangyou Ridge before dark.
Wangyouling is so named because it is located in the mountains and is full of day lilies that bloom all year round. This daylily is also called the Wangyou flower. When Zhao Bai'er was a child, he always liked to pick a large bouquet of Wangyou flowers in the back mountain and give them to his master.
He remembered that Wuji Immortal Lord loved him very much. Ever since he accepted him as a closed disciple, he would keep him by his side all day long. He was not very strict when teaching him to practice. Other brothers were always afraid of his master, but he felt that his master was very good except that he couldn't laugh! When he left, Master was in retreat, but I don’t know how his old man’s health is now...
Zhao Baier got off his horse and looked up at the endless mountains in front of him. This Wangyou Wuji view was hidden in the unpredictable mountain clouds.
The mountainous terrain of Wangyouling is steep, with slopes every five steps and twists and turns every ten steps. The plank road in the mountain could only reach halfway up the mountain. Seeing how hard Li Qi'er was climbing, Zhao Baier gritted his teeth and drew out the sword behind him, and took her sword to Wangyou Wujiguan, which reached the top of the mountain.
The mountains were shrouded in clouds and mist, and the two men flew with swords. The higher they went up, the denser the clouds became. Li Qi'er had never had such an experience before. She tightly grasped Zhao Bai'er's sleeves, with a rare look of surprise on Leng Ao's face.
Not long after, the two saw the mountain gate of Wangyou Wuji Temple from a distance. Zhao Baier carefully controlled the spiritual sword and hid firmly at the mountain gate.
The guarding disciples saw Zhao Baier coming with a sword from a distance. They had been waiting at the mountain gate for a long time, and they were immediately led into the Taoist temple warmly and politely.
As soon as the two of them entered the temple, Taoist Master Wu Nian, the leader of Wangyou Wuji Temple, came out to greet them personally. He first ordered his disciples to take Li Qier to the guest house to rest, and then carefully looked at Zhao Baier, who had not returned for a long time.
Seeing that Zhao Baier was safe and sound, and that his cultivation level had improved a lot, he was very pleased: "Seeing that everything is well with Junior Brother Baier, Master, I am very happy. Come with me quickly!"
Hearing this, Zhao Baier saluted respectfully and said, "Please lead the way, Brother Master!"
Zhao Bai'er studied under Wuji Xianzun of Wangyou Wuji Guan, and he was the same master as Taoist Master Wu Nian, so Taoist Wu Nian called Zhao Bai'er his junior brother, and he called Taoist Wu Nian his senior brother.
Above the main hall, Wuji Immortal Lord sat firmly on the throne. When he saw someone coming, he raised his phoenix eyes slightly and raised the corner of his mouth by a rare third. Just this three-point arc made the little Taoist boy accompanying him dumbfounded. The Taoist boy rubbed his eyes in disbelief and boldly looked at Wuji Immortal Lord again, but the smile on his face disappeared!
"Get out of here." Wuji Immortal Lord had already noticed the little Taoist boy peeking at him and scolded him.
"Immortal Lord, have mercy on me!" This scolding almost shattered the little Taoist priest's heart. The little Taoist boy was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and shouted for mercy.
"Master, why are you angry again? Please spare this child!" Zhao Bai'er felt the anger of Wuji Immortal Lord as soon as he entered the palace door, and hurried in, wanting to make the master happy.
"Hmph, you still know how to come back, I'm afraid you have forgotten to be a teacher!" Seeing Zhao Bai'er in black military uniform enter the door, Wuji Immortal became angry, suppressed the joy in his heart, and spoke sarcastically to him.
