Lin Ming and Ge Qinghuang walked together, chatting along the way, and learned that they were invited by Mr. Bai.
"What a coincidence!" Ge Qinghuang smiled slightly and touched the cross scar on his left cheek.
Lin Ming hesitated to speak, paused, but still said:
"The scar on senior sister's face...do you need me to treat it?"
Ge Qinghuang smiled slightly and stretched out his index finger to wipe the light scar on his face, "No need, this scar is a warning to me."
Lin Ming was surprised. He didn't expect that a woman would be willing to leave scars on her cheeks.
Ge Qinghuang said nothing and walked up the bluestone steps.
It seemed that because of this issue, the two fell into silence again.
Silently all the way, they arrived at the top of Xuanwu Peak half a quarter of an hour later.
Lin Ming glanced around, taking in the surrounding environment.
It's not too big, only a few dozen feet in diameter, and there's not a lot of vegetation. But there is a crooked-neck tree that branches into three branches, which is impressive.
Under the tree, there is a clear pool with white mist rising from the water.
cold!
Without reaching out to test, Lin Ming had already made his own judgment on the temperature of the clear pool.
At this moment, a fist wind struck from behind Lin Ming.
"There is no murderous intention..." Lin Ming frowned slightly, the word "Guan" appeared in the center of his eyebrows, and his mind reflected the movements of the people behind him.
When there was no time to spare, Lin Ming moved slightly to the side.
A small fist wrapped in the strong wind brushed past his ear. Lin Ming turned his head and saw clearly the appearance of the person who came - Shangguan Yunyan.
Lin Ming's right sword finger immediately accelerated and increased its strength, before Shangguan Yunyan could change her form, and accurately pointed at the pulse gate of her wrist.
Breathing in and out of spiritual energy, without any reservation!
Shangguan Yunyan snorted coldly, rotated his forearm, and in an instant, a huge force of twisting and rotating appeared.
A flash of purple light flashed across Lin Ming's eyebrows with the word "Guan" written in the divine text.
Ge Qinghuang's eyes flashed with surprise, and he thought to himself: "Another purple divine inscription, this junior is hiding it so well."
At this time, Lin Ming was focused on dealing with Shangguan Yunyan's special fist power.
The physical eye sees the outside, the mind’s eye sees the essence.
What Lin Ming saw was not only Shangguan Yunyan's fist, but also the divine "ball" at the core of the punch.
It's another color I can't understand - a girlish pink light.
Lin Ming didn't have time to ask, so he directly turned his fingers into palms, exerted force along Shangguan Yunyan's wrist, and then added a rush of force in the direction of the cross section.
boom!
The strange power of Shangguan Yunyan's fist suddenly dissipated, and Zheng's whole body drew an arc to the side.
Bang bang!
After falling to the ground, her body was not stained by any dust.
Moreover, when Shangguan Yunyan landed, it bounced back like a ball.
Bounce bomb bomb~~~
After several consecutive clicks, the buffer was completed. Shangguan Yunyan stood on the spot, put one hand on her hips, pointed at Lin Ming and shouted:
"Well, Lin Ming, we made an appointment, but you are flirting with us everywhere. What does this mean?"
Shangguan Yunyan took the lead.
Lin Ming: "..."
Little sister, if you talk like this, others will definitely misunderstand you.
From the corner of Lin Ming's eyes, he caught a glimpse of his senior's expression.
Sure enough, the mood in Ge Qinghuang's eyebrows changed!
She is no longer leisurely and leisurely, and her sense of appreciation has faded a lot. Instead, her eyes are more scrutinizing and wary.
That’s a woman’s natural wariness against philandering men!
Lin Ming was about to cry but had no tears, and his face looked embarrassed, "Miss Shangguan, if you have something to say, please speak it carefully. Please don't say it in such an ambiguous way."
Shangguan Yunyan snorted and turned her back to Lin Ming, "Our business will be settled in a month, but you are here walking with other women early in the morning..."
Lin Ming: (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻
"Good guy! What you said is really good. If you don't know, you might think I'm getting married to you."
Lin Ming blurted out one sentence and then rolled his eyes.
Shangguan Yunyan suddenly turned around, "You have changed. You are no longer the cute and handsome pet baby that is not loved by outsiders."
As she spoke, she pointed her finger at Ge Qinghuang, "Who is this woman? Where is she from? Can she fight better than me?"
Ge Qinghuang frowned slightly, then relaxed it immediately.
First she smiled apologetically at Lin Ming, then her eyes shone with divine light, and her pupils suddenly turned into the color of the blue sky.
Instead of looking at Shangguan Yunyan, he looked at Mr. Huo who was in nothingness.
Ge Qinghuang held down the hilt of the sword with one hand, and there was a hint of coldness in his voice, "Don't you care if the protector is around?"
In the dark, Huo Lao's mind was slightly disturbed. He did not expect that a person whose realm was far below him could accurately see his location.
And if you include Lin Ming, that’s two people!
Mr. Huo walked out of the void, wearing a black robe, his face hidden under the hood.
He was about to open his mouth to speak, but he noticed something special about Ge Qinghuang's eyes.
Raising his hands to cover his face, Mr. Huo said, "Why does my young lady need to explain to others what she does?"
"I am nothing more than a servant!"
Along with his words, Huo Lao's whole body was ignited with overwhelming momentum.
In an instant, the world seemed to be dominated by him, with a radius of hundreds of feet turning into his domain.
overbearing!
The invisible momentum crashed down like clouds hanging from the sky.
Lin Ming's feet entered the ground.
More than three inches!
"What I have endured is just the aftermath. The pressure that senior sister faces is at least 10 times greater!" Thoughts flashed through Lin Ming's mind.
The old man's cultivation was beyond Lin Ming's knowledge. He didn't know how strong the opponent was. He only knew that Ge Qinghuang was definitely no match for him!
At this time, Ge Qinghuang's long sword was unsheathed.
Keng~buzz!
The crisp sound of the sword was also the same as what I had heard before.
It's nice, sweet, and the rhythm doesn't change.
Ge Qinghuang took a step forward and struck with his sword, as if a new moon had risen in the early morning.
Bah!
The sword cut through the sky, and most of the invisible pressure was instantly reduced by half.
"Impossible! How can a person in the wonderful enlightenment realm break my momentum?" Mr. Huo's eyes widened.
Ge Qinghuang raised the corners of his mouth slightly, his eyes were indifferent, and he did not answer.
People from remote areas dare to look down on me... Mr. Huo's eyes flashed with coldness, and he was about to take action again.
Suddenly, Shangguan Yunyan rushed over and hit Mr. Huo on the chest with his fist.
Boom!
Huo Lao didn't take a step back, but a large area of air behind him condensed into a sphere the size of a basin.
The sphere exploded suddenly, and Huo Lao's robes were filled with hurricane force, making a roaring sound.
"Who asked you to take action?" Shangguan Yunyan was displeased, pouting and wrinkled his chin.
Hearing these words, Mr. Huo smoothed away the strong wind flowing in his robe, then clasped his fists and said, "Third Miss, don't blame me. This person discovered my identity first. According to family rules, I can kill him."
Shangguan Yunyan landed another fist on Mr. Huo's chest.
Bang!
"Don't use family rules to pressure me, Mr. Huo, do you want me, Shangguan Yunyan, to be your puppet?" Shangguan Yunyan looked directly at Mr. Huo.
Huo Lao was speechless.
This is a huge hat!
Shangguan Yunyan is the third daughter in the direct line of the Shangguan family, and she is also the most enchanting one in her generation.
To train her to become a puppet is to have designs on the Shangguan family, which is tantamount to rebellion!
"I don't dare!!!" Huo Lao lowered his head, his posture even lower.
From the way Shangguan Yunyan addressed him, he could see that the former was really angry, different from usual, and not losing his temper.
This is a bit difficult... Mr. Huo hesitated.
Shangguan Yunyan was still angry, but the opponent seemed to have a good attitude, but she couldn't hit him. She didn't know how to relieve the depression in her heart.
The stalemate lasted less than half a second.
Lin Ming stood up and pointed his fingers at his eyes.
"According to this, wouldn't I, Lin Ming, also deserve to die?"
"Senior should know that I also have another pair of eyes, and my vision is no worse than my senior's Blue Sky Eyes. Even if you change your appearance, I will definitely recognize you as long as you appear in front of me."
Hearing this, Ge Qinghuang smiled slightly and said to himself: "This junior is willing to complain for others. He is indeed a person with a warm heart."
Shangguan Yunyan's big eyes showed a hint of joy. She nodded and said helpfully, "That's right. Isn't this kind of behavior a clear sign of causing trouble for my Shangguan family?"
Mr. Huo: "..."
He didn't speak, and his face under the hood twitched repeatedly.
Looking at Lin Ming, Mr. Huo's eyes flashed with cold light, and he cursed:
"Okay, good boy, if you force yourself to come forward, you are destined to end badly."
"Are you trying to please the third lady with just a few words? Are you kidding? She is a famously weird and difficult-to-maintain member of the Shangguan family!"
"I won't argue with you. Let's see how you are played to death by the third lady."
Huo Lao was very clear about his position - facing the huge Shangguan family, he had absolutely no chance of survival.
Therefore, no matter how Shangguan Yunyan treats him, he will never be dissatisfied, and he will never act beyond the rules again.
If the guardian is forcibly recalled to the family, it is equivalent to entering the cold palace, and all resources will be reduced by 90%.
If such consequences really occur, and he wants to go further and truly break through to the Saint Realm, it can only be nonsense!
Mr. Huo's humble attitude made it impossible for Shangguan Yunyan to find fault.
However, the cold light in his eyes hid it from everyone except Lin Ming.
Lin Ming's eyes were as bright as a flashlight, and he noticed last time that this old man had unkind intentions toward him.
This time, I paid more careful attention to him. Although his face was blocked by a special barrier, the inner eye could not see through it.
But his whole body posture is difficult to hide——
First, the body stiffened for a very short moment.
Secondly, the sleeves of the robe were shaking slightly, which reflected in Lin Ming's mind, and the image he got was that he suddenly clenched his fists.
In addition to the two most obvious points, there are several other details. Taken together, and with a little logical reasoning, Lin Ming came to the conclusion:
"This Mr. Huo is very angry, but he is extremely afraid of Shangguan Yunyan's identity, so all his anger is aimed at me."
"It's just that I still can't tell whether it's because I'm being aggressive in the moment, or if I'm really planning to kill me with one blow..."
Lin Ming's mind went back and forth, but not much time had actually passed.
Shangguan Yunyan jumped up to Lin Ming's side and pressed her elbow against Lin Ming's side hip.
"Hey, thank you very much. Prepare pets."
Lin Ming:? ? ?
"You are really convinced of me. Only three days have passed in a month. Can't you see my progress?"
"Tch, if you make progress, I won't make progress, right? A month later, I will not suppress the realm and break through to the realm of wonderful enlightenment, then...hehehe."
Shangguan Yunyan had a wicked smile on his face.
Next to him, Ge Qinghuang was speechless, feeling ashamed once again for having misunderstood Lin Ming before.
Especially Shangguan Yunyan's poor verbal guidance, she couldn't figure out why she was fooled.
Ge Qinghuang kept smiling, controlled his breathing, let a breath of air hover in his lungs, and then slowly exhaled it after a while.
After thinking about it carefully, she found that she didn't reveal it too obviously, which meant that the misunderstanding was not established.
However, Ge Qinghuang is a sword cultivator, a real sword cultivator. Sword cultivating also cultivates the mind. She cannot pass her level.
Looking at Lin Ming's profile, Ge Qinghuang secretly decided: "We must find a chance to make amends!"
At this time, Shangguan Yunyan glanced at her secretly, leaned close to her ear, and whispered: "Lin Ming is my pet, and I will never give it to you."
Before he finished speaking, the Shangguan cloud smoke floated to Huo Lao's side like a breeze, driving Huo Lao into the void.
Mr. Huo laughed twice, and then faintly disappeared.
Suddenly, a cloud from high in the sky fell straight down and hit Mr. Huo's head.
boom!
Mr. Huo's feet sank into the ground, almost reaching his knees.
"Who?" Mr. Huo tore apart the clouds and rose into the sky.
However, another cloud fell from the sky.
boom!
The legs he had just pulled out sank again.
This time, it was really up to my knees.
Huo Lao's Qi machine circulated and suddenly shattered the clouds.
The inner Qi machine is running continuously, and in the blink of an eye, colorful rays of light are condensed within half an inch of the whole body.
That was the process of spiritual energy turning from virtual to real, making his whole body seem to be covered with phantom clouds.
Immediately afterwards, Mr. Huo raised his hands and raised them above his head, as if he was carrying a huge and heavy mountain and river tripod.
At this time, another cloud fell from the sky.
The expected roar did not appear, and the cloud energy was forcibly collected in Huo Lao's hands, and then a small half of the Mountain and River Cauldron was constructed.
Aura-like objects!
It is not just about using aura to construct the shape, but about using the power of nature to condense a bronze mountain and river tripod out of thin air.
It was completely inconsistent with scientific principles... Lin Ming was silent, feeling once again that he was unfamiliar with the Cangxuan Realm.
"Maybe in this world, 'Newton' doesn't have a coffin board at all."
While he was complaining in his mind, Shangguan Yunyan jumped over and said with a smile:
"Are my Shangguan's martial arts skills good? Don't they look particularly beautiful? You can learn them by becoming my pet."
If you are still obsessed with me... Lin Ming rolled his eyes, "It's too fancy and impractical."
"Humph, no way. Although I was very angry with Grandpa Huo just now, he is not a loser. This move is a five-color divine light. Although it is a degraded and reduced version, it is very strong and difficult to practice."
When the plan failed, Shangguan Yunyan pursed her lips and swept her ponytail across Lin Ming's nose.
itch!
Lin Ming sidestepped half an inch.
Ge Qinghuang now fully understood the relationship between Shangguan Yunyan and Lin Ming——
The former wants something from the latter, but what he wants is weird, it is to be a pet.
The latter ignored the former, wishing that the former would not appear in front of him.
Pursing his lips and smiling softly, Ge Qinghuang shook his head slightly and looked at Shangguan Yunyan like a child.
Shangguan Yunyan's six senses were sharp, and when he noticed Ge Qinghuang's gaze, he stopped immediately.
She moved her steps, her figure flashed, and she was about to hand out her little fist to Ge Qinghuang.
Ge Qinghuang flicked the hilt of his sword.
Buzz!
The sound of the sword in its scabbard has a calming charm.
"Look, a fight is about to begin."
When something more interesting happened, Shangguan Yunyan's attention immediately shifted.
At this time, Mr. Huo held the Mountain and River Cauldron above his head and rose up from the ground. The dirt and dust under his feet gathered into a dust dragon about ten feet long.
And high in the sky, a white robe parted the clouds and mist, as if a god came to earth.
"Wow!!!" Shangguan Yunyan opened her mouth wide, put her hands on her eyes, and looked hard into the clouds and mist in the sky, "Who is this?"
Lin Ming could only see it from a distance of more than ten feet, and could not see it with his naked eyes. He could only shake his head.
At this time, Ge Qinghuang said: "Mr. Bai is taking action in the sky. He is helping me and my junior to vent our anger."
Lin Ming nodded and recalled the scene where "Mr. Huo's feet sank into the ground, pulled them up, sank in again, and went back and forth several times."
Have a good laugh!
Shangguan Yunyan laughed heartlessly along with him.
At this time, Huo Lao raised the cauldron and flew into the air. Mr. Bai raised his palm lightly and suddenly fell down.
There was silence for a moment.
Large swaths of clouds in the sky collapsed, turning into various weapons as they fell - swords, guns, swords, halberds, axes, hooks... everything.
It’s also a method of imitating spiritual energy!
The two moves suddenly came into contact.
Ping bell pong ring~~~~~
The impact was fast and dense.
Three seconds later, Mr. Huo's expression changed drastically, and the Mountain and River Cauldron in his hand exploded.
A weak five-color light flashed, and the 'phantom clouds' on Mr. Huo's body exploded.
Then, his whole body turned into a rainbow and fell to the ground.
boom!
Smoke and dust rose.
Lin Ming, Ge Qinghuang, and Shangguan Yunyan each had their own special methods, and they could clearly see Mr. Huo's embarrassment——
He was lying on his back, with his body in a large shape, sunk into the ground, and his eyes were staring blankly at the sky.
At this time, Mr. Bai took a leisurely step and appeared on the ground.
He said quietly: "Today, I will teach the students, and there is no need for others to watch."
