At noon the next day, Qian Chao and Tang Ping rested on the top of a mountain. The terrain here was high and the view was wide.
Before this trip to Broken Heart Valley, Qian Chao told Lu Pingchuan that he would stay outside for a longer time this time, so Lu Pingchuan specially prepared enough delicious food. For him, there must be something in this day. A full meal was needed, so when it was time for lunch, the five of them chose a flat rock on the top of the mountain. They placed the food and wine on the table and chatted while enjoying the meal. After nothing happened, Lu Pingchuan began to check the harvest in his storage bag like a miser, which attracted Tang Ping to come over and take a look. There was really a lot of stuff inside. Lu Pingchuan clicked his tongue a few times and said:
"Hey, this time in Heartbreak Valley can be regarded as the most rewarding time."
Yanxuan also felt the same way and echoed:
"Yes, I also got a lot of spiritual herbs."
"Hehe, it was worth coming out this time! Hey, brother Qian, didn't you say we were going to find those guys these days, but we are still wandering around here?"
Qian Chao smiled and said:
"We are not looking for them. Some of those people have the means to find us. We just need to find an open place to make it easier for them to find us."
Tang Ping suddenly thought of something and turned to Qian Chao and said:
"I'm actually worried that if Shangguan Hong strikes too hard, he will drive Zong Xi and Lou Qingyao away directly. Mr. Qian, in that case your whole plan will fail."
Yanxuan asked puzzledly:
"Is Shangguan Hong that powerful? A Ping, didn't you say that night that she decided that butterfly was her natal spiritual insect? It was probably because she had to do this when she was in danger. Looking at it this way, I think maybe Shangguan Hong Honghui will be driven away by Zong Xi and those people."
Tang Ping shook his head:
"Sister Yan, my master met Shangguan Hong several times after she returned to the Five Spirits Sect, and then told me that Shangguan Hong was probably the number one person in terms of means after establishing the foundation in the sect, and asked me to be extra careful about her. Well, at that time we were not the top Qi refining disciples. Many famous senior brothers and sisters were in the sect before they had established their foundations. However, my master said that Shangguan Hong was probably the best among the qi refining disciples in the sect. I heard She was still a little unconvinced and was scolded by the master. I guess the master's vision must be correct. Also, she designated her butterfly as her natal spiritual insect, which also strengthened her cultivation and methods to a certain extent. So we can't underestimate her. Zong Xi and Zhang Yi have hired a lot of people from outside to deal with us. We have to deal with it carefully, but don't forget that Shangguan Hong will definitely make more preparations to deal with us. Qiu The elder has few disciples, and Shangguan Hong is almost always responsive to her requests. She must have gotten a lot of powerful things from my uncle Qiu, and the Shangguan family is still fully supporting her behind the scenes. Shangguan Hong really cannot be underestimated this time. The most terrible thing is that Shangguan Hong cannot tolerate others and will retaliate, and if people like Zong Xi can force her to hastily decide on her destiny, she will definitely come back with revenge."
Lu Pingchuan said a little unconvinced:
"Then is Madam Shangguan so powerful?"
"Brother Lu, don't underestimate her."
Li Jian said:
"Brother Lu, Zong Xi's people include both sword cultivators and physical cultivators. They had a fight last night, and the fight was extremely fierce according to Miss Tang's wishes. I really hope to see those people today. See Looking at the outcome of the fight last night, we can at least see some clues to Shangguan Hong's methods from those two people."
"Yeah, that's right. Hey, Brother Qian, is there any way to find those guys quickly?"
It seemed that Li Jian's words came true. Just when the five people were going down the mountain, almost halfway up the mountain, suddenly a mid-level demon bird like a floating cloud suddenly fluttered its wings in the distant sky. Because it was far away, the five people Personally, I didn't pay much attention to it. Not only were there numerous demonic birds and beasts in the Broken Heart Valley, but it was also very common for them to prey on each other. However, in the forest where the demonic bird swooped down, the five of them suddenly noticed the swift flash of human figures there. .
Those people were obviously frightened by the big bird that swooped down. If they didn't dodge quickly, it would be difficult to find them. Besides the five of them in the Heartbroken Valley, the only ones left were Zong Xi and others. Ren and Shangguan Hong fell in love.
"Hey, are they Zong Xi and those people?" Lu Pingchuan said.
The mid-level demon bird swooped down, its powerful wings carrying huge wind pressure, and the trees below suddenly began to shake randomly. Several screams seemed to be heard from a distance, and then the demon bird's huge wings were seen flapping violently. , the body suddenly lifted up again and carried countless green leaves and branches upwards.
"I didn't succeed," Li Jian said.
"Why were they targeted by the demon bird?" Yanxuan asked.
"No, that's not a demon bird." Tang Ping raised her head and looked into the air. The mid-level demon bird was circling rapidly and was about to swoop down again.
"What?"
Tang Ping was not the only one to notice something was wrong. Among the five people, Qian Chao, Tang Ping and Li Jian all noticed something was wrong with the demon bird.
In the heartbroken valley, the three parties have their own methods to avoid the demonic birds and beasts here. The methods used by Zong Xi and others, Qian Chao and the five of them have already seen it. It is a talisman called "Blood Hidden Talisman". When encountering monsters and beasts that are difficult to match, they will throw out the talisman and turn it into dark red lines and fly quickly into the distance. The talisman has their strong personal aura on it, so as to make this place the most ferocious. But the clever demonic birds and beasts deceived him.
But when the monster bird swooped down just now, Zong Xi and the others could clearly use the "Blood Hidden Talisman" but they only tried to avoid it in an awkward manner. The Broken Heart Valley was a dangerous forbidden place, so the "Blood Hidden Talisman" they prepared "It must be enough. If they don't have that kind of talisman to come, they should leave here. They won't have the guts to stay here." But just now they didn't use it when they faced the mid-level demon bird, which illustrates the problem. Since the situation of running out of talismans can be ruled out, it can only mean that there is something wrong with the demon bird that dived towards them.
At least that demon bird couldn't be deceived with the "Blood Hidden Talisman", but the middle-level demon bird shouldn't have such intelligence, and that was the problem.
Li Jian purely relied on his induction, but the distance was too far and his induction could not cover it.
Qian Chao stared at the big bird in the sky. The mid-level demon bird could not be Shangguan Hong's spiritual bird. Besides, Shangguan Hong only raised spiritual insects, so what happened to this big bird?
Tang Ping also stared closely in confusion.
The big bird swooped down again.
What surprised Qian Chao and the other five people was that with the force of the wind blowing from the wings of the demon bird, they saw that Zong Xi and the others were actually gathered together. Even if there were more Qi Refining monks, it would be impossible for them to work together to use their methods. It injured the middle-level demon bird, and the sharp claws of the intermediate-level demon bird only caused broken bones and tendons.
However, a scene that puzzled the five of them appeared again. Seeing everyone gathered together below, the mid-level demon bird actually showed some hesitation, as if he was not sure whether he should attack or not. But after all, it was almost on top of those people's heads. As if just to give it a try, the big bird used its sharp claws to grab Zong Xi and the others fiercely.
White light suddenly appeared, and the huge white light ball immediately enveloped Zong Xi and the others, and the figure of the mid-level demon bird suddenly rebounded out. There were still a lot of feathers floating in the air. The big bird The body rolled in a series, presumably this was the reason for its previous hesitation, but soon the mid-level demon bird recovered, but judging from its posture, it was actually hovering in the air again, as if it did not give up on those below. , ready to swoop over again.
With the current knowledge of the five people, they all know that those people were saved by some powerful protective treasure. That thing was on Tang Ping. As a big dude, whether it was Zong Xi, Jing Lu or Zhang Yi, they would naturally also Yes, this is not unusual, but what is strange is that those big dudes are willing to use life-saving things to save everyone, which puzzles Tang Ping. You must know that Tang Ping only has two life-saving things on her body. One was given by her master, and the other was given by her sixth grandfather Tang Bonian. She would not use it until just in case. In the same way, even a big dandy like Zong Xi doesn't have many life-saving things on his body, so he should cherish them very much. Now he is willing to use them to protect everyone. This is different from what those dandies usually do. Something is different.
Just when the big bird swooped down again, an angry roar came from far away in the forest:
"Shangguan... don't go too far!"
That was Jing Lu's voice, but... Shangguan?
Shangguan Hong!
Could it be that big bird?
Tang Ping suddenly woke up and murmured:
"I understand, the spirit-binding technique..."
The four companions heard her words, but they had no time to ask because the ferocious big bird had already swooped down.
Intense white light appeared again, and at the same time, the huge figure of the mid-level demon bird was bounced away again, but this time the suppressed people below launched a counterattack. While the big bird was still rolling in the air, When the white light below was a child, an extremely intense golden light shot out and chased the big bird rolling in the air at an extremely fast speed!
Life-saving things given by elders usually create a powerful barrier after use, isolating opponents or dangers from outside. It is the white light ball that appeared in the woods twice just now, and now it shoots at the big bird. The strong golden light is also a life-saving thing. As long as the opponent is eliminated, one's life is saved.
For example, Tang Ping's Rufeng Pai also has the same effect, but the strong golden light is emitted by Jinglu. It can be seen that the life-saving thing given to him by his parents is not a shield but a spear.
The next scene made the five people stunned again. The tumbling big bird seemed impossible to avoid the impact of the golden light. Just when it was about to encounter danger, a ball of white catkins that expanded instantly covered it. The figure of the big bird was wrapped around it, and the golden light hitting it quickly pushed it upwards very far. Then the golden light disappeared, and then the white catkins disappeared, revealing the graceful figure of a woman.
It was Shangguan Hong.
