In the main hall of Qingming Peak in Jiujie Mountain, Lu Shenji, the leader of Qingtan Peak, escorted Lin Miaoyin and Mu Xiyao from Yuyin Gate and walked into the main hall with firm eyes.
Yan Mingxiu didn't like to deal with the scene of overt and covert fighting, so he stood at the door of the palace without going in. He slapped an eavesdropping charm on Lu Shenji's sleeve, preparing to eavesdrop for some fun.
Qingming Peak is the seat of the head of the Cangxu Sect, and is now occupied by the acting head Xiao Shangqing. The Qingming Peak disciples had no choice but to move away. Lu Shenji happened to take Ji Beichen in, and luckily he brought the other Qingming Peak disciples back with him. Qing Tan Peak.
Ten years ago, the head of Xuhai had intended to let Lu Shenji take charge of the Cangxu sect, but he did not want to be defeated first. At that time, the Cangxu sect was already tired after this battle, and the people's hearts were unstable and could not help being upset. The head of Xuhai could only Although he could give up, Lu Shenji was still the most prestigious person in the Cangxu Sect.
Xiao Shangqing is the second junior brother of the leader of Xuhai. He is already seventy years old but his hair and beard are completely black. He looks like he is still in his prime years. He wears a green robe with gold silk dragons, which shows his "indescribable" status and "Beidou". "respect" power.
He sat firmly in a high position in the hall. After listening to Lu Shenji's account of what happened, his eyes flickered, showing a dilemma, and he hesitated and said: "Lu Aotian is a disciple of the Cangxu Sect. Since he made a mistake, he should be punished. Death for colluding with the Demon Sect is not enough." What a pity! But it’s really unjustifiable that these two disciples of the Yuyin Sect are being tried in our Cangxu Sect..."
Yan Mingxiu outside the hall couldn't help but smile contemptuously. It was their fault to hear what Xiao Shangqing said. Their acting head liked to be at odds with each other. No wonder the disciples said that the number one sword sect in the world of cultivation had become the number one sword sect in the past two years. The "Buddhist Dharma" in the world of cultivation.
When the head of Xuhai was in power, the Cangxu sect fought for the first place in everything, whether it was trials or demon elimination. However, the current head, Xiao Shangqing, adheres to the principle that no one should be offended. He does not fight or rob, and even loses the victory. Make concessions to others.
On the contrary, Yuyin Sect, a small and inconspicuous immortal sect, has stolen the limelight. In the past two years, it has ranked second among the "Four Great Immortal Sects", only under the Cangxu Sect.
Xiao Shangqing's words had no impact on Lu Shenji at all. He only slightly cupped his hands and replied righteously: "It is obvious to all in the world of cultivation that the Huan Mie Sect lost all conscience and it has long since become the sect of all immortal sects in the world of cultivation. Common enemy. Second Brother Xiao must also know this, and Yuyin Sect is one of the 'Four Great Immortal Sects'. I believe that for our actions today, the Master of Chengyin Sect will not only not blame them, but will also severely punish the two of them."
Xiao Shangqing didn't say a word after hearing this, and his face gradually became serious. He glanced at Lin Miaoyin and Mu Xiyao who were kneeling beside the hall, and his expression became complicated.
Just as the two were in a stalemate, Qi Mingzhen, the leader of Qingping Peak, was wearing a green robe with a bird pattern and strode in angrily.
She originally came to inquire about Lu Aotian's death. As soon as she entered the hall, she saw the two men in a tense posture. She asked directly without asking the reason: "Fifth junior brother, what you said is wrong. Once a teacher, he is always a father. I think Lin Chengyin also I am not a hard-hearted person like you. Even if the disciple has done something unforgivable, it is not worthy of death, so take his life!"
Xiao Shangqing quickly stood up to smooth things over. He stepped down from his high position and said with a hint of sorrow and pity: "Third Junior Sister misunderstood Shen Ji. He had already left the Qingtan Peak Hall at that time. I believe that he will take care of Lu Aotian's funeral affairs. Don’t worry, junior sister.”
"Hmph!" Qi Mingzhen snorted coldly, and walked out of the hall with a cold face and puffed sleeves. She believed that Lu Aotian's death was not caused by Lu Shenji, but she would never believe Yan Mingxiu, the talisman cultivator. She would definitely investigate the real cause of Lu Aotian's death!
When Xiao Shangqing saw Qi Mingzhen being so merciless to him, he could only laugh awkwardly and said: "Haha, Third Junior Sister is still so upright despite her age. Fifth Junior Brother, please don't take it to heart."
Lu Shenji waved his hand. He firmly believed that the innocent would self-examine, and he did not need to explain too much about Lu Aotian. He believed that Qi Mingzhen would find out the truth of the matter, so he didn't need to worry about it.
Xiao Shangqing naturally knew Lu Shenji's temperament, so he did not persuade him and continued: "The sword trial meeting in Wuyou Town will be held soon. The fifth junior brother can take the two of them there together and meet the master of Yuyin Sect face to face. How do you feel about discussing this matter?"
Lu Shenji nodded slightly. This solution coincided with Yan Mingxiu's idea, so he handed over his hand and accepted the order: "Yes, I will prepare it right away."
Lu Shenji couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief as he walked out of the Qingming Peak Hall, but Yan Mingxiu happened to catch him!
Yan Mingxiu took off his pink shirt today and put on the purple robe. He seemed to be more disciplined when he went there, and his unruly temper was also much restrained.
Seeing no one around, he couldn't help but stepped forward and joked: "Brother-in-law also sighs sometimes. It's really rare. Is he so difficult to deal with?"
Lu Shenji shook his head helplessly. As the saying goes: If you have different ways, you can't make friends with each other; if you have different wills, you can't make friends with each other. He and Xiao Shangqing have always been at odds with each other in temperament and temperament since they were young.
Xiao Shangqing was born in a family with the surname Xiao. Although it was not as noble and dazzling as it was in its heyday, it was still considered a well-known fairy family.
Before Lu Shenji entered the school, he was just a young monk with a wild path. He was jointly recommended by Master Xuhai and the Yan family elders. He had just entered the Cangxu Sect and became a disciple of the Immortal Master to practice sword techniques.
Fifteen years ago, the Immortal Lord cultivated the righteous path and returned to the Immortal Class. His eldest disciple Xuhai Zhenren became the new generation leader. Lu Shenji became the leader of Qingtan Peak. Xiao Shangqing almost went crazy during his cultivation due to his unstable mind. , did not become the first of each peak like them.
"If you want to replace him..." Yan Mingxiu's spiritual consciousness interrupted Lu Shenji's thoughts.
Lu Shenji frowned and replied angrily: "Don't talk nonsense! People with different opinions should follow their own ambitions. Ten years have passed since then. Don't mention it again!"
Yan Mingxiu wisely shut his mouth and said no more, and the two of them headed towards Qingtan Peak with their swords one after the other.
When the two of them walked to the Trial Valley in the back mountain, they were surprised to see colorful clouds all over the sky, filled with light and dazzling colors.
Lu Shenji was overjoyed when he saw this scene. He closed his eyes and used his spiritual consciousness to sense the Trial Valley. Then he said excitedly: "I just used my spiritual sense to sense that your sister is about to be released from seclusion. Don't think about running around and just follow me." Let’s go together!”
Yan Mingxiu rolled his eyes, and Yu Shan chased after him: "Brother-in-law! Xinrui and Nianxin are still in Wuyou Town. How can sister explain it?"
Lu Shenji knew Yan Mingxiu's wishful thinking all too well. It was just to avoid Yan Mingxin's questioning and push him to face it alone. This was not the first time or twice.
But Lu Shenji was very happy today. He and Yan Mingxin hadn't seen each other for nearly half a year, so it was a lie to say that he didn't want to. But their daughters are about to get married, so it's hard to say anything if others care about them.
Thinking of this, Lu Shenji subconsciously touched the two moustache on his lips, frowned and said sincerely: "Hey, none of you three can worry about it, so that's all. I'll do my best to Ming Xin's side. Hold on, go find them and come back quickly, but if your sister asks about you, I will still tell the truth."
After saying this, Lu Shenji ignored everything else and passed through the colorful clouds in the sky with his sword, heading to the Trial Valley to welcome Yan Mingxin out of seclusion.
The Trial Valley is adjacent to the Soul-Living Valley. It is a natural valley full of spiritual energy, which is extremely suitable for cultivators to practice in seclusion.
I saw several extremely beautiful rays of rays of light shooting out from a pool in the Trial Valley, filling the sky with rays of rays of light.
The sky full of colorful clouds is reflected in a pool of clear water, and the gust of wind ruffles the water in the pool. With the ripples in the water, the unpredictable cloud shadows become more flexible and elegant, and the blue waves around the pool are surrounded by smoke, just like a fairyland.
"Shenji personally welcomes Madam out of seclusion!" Lu Shenji's joy was beyond words, and the corners of his mouth were already grinning to the sky.
As soon as he finished speaking, a woman in blue slowly emerged from the pool. Her azure dress with silver water ripples was soaked through. Crystal water droplets covered her body, shining like a sapphire with a blue light. Her whole body was like a The mermaid emerges from the water, charming and sultry.
Lu Shenji's eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly greeted her and congratulated her: "My wife has reached the fifth level of Nascent Soul. It's really gratifying and congratulatory!"
He did not expect that Yan Mingxin actually broke through two realms at once during this retreat. Now the two people's cultivation realms are evenly matched. It seems that she has encountered a lot of opportunities. It is really gratifying!
When Yan Mingxin saw that the person coming was her husband, she smiled, took off her soaked blue robe, wore only the gauze clothes underneath, and got into the water for a swim again.
The water surface rippled again, and Yan Mingxin was like a fish entering a river, swimming happily and freely in the water. As she went deep into the bottom of the pool, the clear water returned to calm. Her body outline was looming in the water, and her slender and nimble figure was intoxicating.
Seeing that his wife's figure was fully displayed, Lu Shenji hurriedly waved his hand to form a half-spherical barrier, tightly covering the two of them and the deep pool, and no outsiders were allowed to pry.
After half a stick of incense, Yan Mingxin surfaced again, and Lu Shenji put the dried blue robe on her body.
"Thank you, husband." Yan Ming smiled sweetly, quietly approached Lu Shenji, and kissed him deeply at the corner of his mouth.
Lu Shenji's heart suddenly palpitated and his Adam's apple rolled. He really wanted to ignore it and talk to her in this valley...
Yan Mingxin was particularly satisfied with Lu Shenji's reaction. She straightened her robe and looked at him tenderly and said, "You have worked hard to be careful with yourself these past few months. Is Mingxiu doing any nonsense?"
"It's okay..." Lu Shenji regained consciousness for a moment, raised his head slightly, and saw a warm tear-shaped pearl hanging on Yan Mingxin's snow-white neck. The pearl gave off a faint halo, making her even more charming and charming.
"Madam is at the bottom of the pool, what chance do you have?" Lu Shenji stretched out his hand, trying to touch the pearl on Yan Ming's neck. The pearl seemed to have spirituality and suddenly became extremely dazzling. Lu Shenji had to stop there.
Yan Mingxin pursed her lips and smiled, took off the pearl from her neck, gently placed it in the palm of her hand and spread it in front of Lu Shenji. She said with a smile: "This pearl is a magic weapon - Furong Weeping. I have completed the blood refining. Accept it." I am the Lord, and this is the fairy fate I met at the bottom of the pond."
Lu Shenji stretched out his right hand and gently traced the hibiscus with his fingertips. It was cool and warm, smooth and delicate. Looking closely, there was a faint red color in the pink color.
The more he looked at it, the more it looked like Yan Mingxin's delicate lips, and he couldn't help but sigh: "Wonderful! Although this thing is beautiful, it is not as pretty as Madam's face."
"You have a smooth tongue, but you have learned badly from Ming Xiu." Yan Mingxin raised the corners of her mouth, clenched her fists with both hands and lightly punched his tight chest.
Lu Shenji took advantage of the situation and hugged her into his arms. At this time, he could no longer hold it in any longer. He put aside his usual "prudery" and said with a smile: "I know there is a secret cave in the Valley of Trials. Madam, please follow me." I come!"
Without waiting for Yan Mingxin to reply, he picked her up by the waist and flew toward the secret cave with his sword...
