Chen Hui walked on the mountain path with some fear, looking back from time to time to glance at the young man behind him.
What he can be sure of is that this young man should be a great swordsman with good looks.
This can be gleaned from the fact that when the opponent took action just now, the sword intent was sent into their bodies with ease, but it did not hurt them at all.
It's like holding a machete in your hand, but you can finely separate the bones and flesh of grass carp without cutting the flesh at all.
Without years of training and strong enough talent, it is impossible to do it.
Naturally, he could not afford to offend such a being, but he did not block him outside the mountain gate as requested by the master. Chen Hui was also afraid that he would not be able to do his job under the punishment of the master.
He could be said to be uneasy and worried at the moment.
"Senior... I haven't asked you for your name yet?" Chen Hui thought for a while and finally plucked up the courage to ask.
He has been leading the other party away for a quarter of an hour. Along the way, this young man just kept looking at the vegetation on both sides of the mountain road, and from time to time he would ask questions such as——
"I remember there used to be a ginkgo tree here. Why is the tree hundreds of years old missing?"
"Where is the Chishui Temple here? Why did it collapse? Hasn't it been repaired for so many years?"
"This place is still the same as before. The cliff mouth is raised and it is a good place for viewing."
From these words, Chen Hui felt that this senior seemed to be very familiar with Tianxuan Peak. Because of this, Chen Hui only dared to test the other party's name when he secretly felt that the other party might not have any malicious intentions.
"My previous name was too long, and I guess you know it, but now my name is good, Meng Ziliang." The boy in white responded, not at all displeased with Chen Hui's inquiry.
"Meng Ziliang?" Chen Hui muttered the name and frowned slightly. He thought about it carefully in his mind. It seemed that there was no one as big as Meng Ziliang among the great swordsmen in the world.
In order to prevent his own ignorance, he also looked at several fellow juniors beside him. At this time, they all frowned and shook their heads.
Obviously they have never heard of this name.
Could it be some hidden power? Chen Hui thought this again.
But no matter what, after the previous confrontation, he did not dare to despise Meng Ziliang any more.
You can only deal with it carefully.
He winked at one of the junior brothers, who immediately understood. After nodding, he accelerated his pace while Meng Ziliang was not paying attention, distanced himself from the large group, and left quickly towards the front.
…
The group of people just walked along the mountain road and watched as they moved forward.
Chen Hui gradually felt a little strange.
Meng Ziliang showed great interest in everything on Tianxuan Peak along the way. From time to time, he would ask when certain buildings on the mountainside were built, and when the buildings and trees in certain areas disappeared. of.
It didn't look like he was here to visit the elders or head of the Tianxuan Peak sect, but more like he was here to enjoy the mountains and rivers.
Although he felt that Meng Ziliang's behavior was weird in his heart, he could only cooperate with him and did not dare to show any dissatisfaction, let alone any slight.
In this way, they arrived at the destination mentioned by Meng Ziliang.
Tianchi Cliff in front of Yaoguang Sword Pond.
Yaoguang Sword Pond can be said to be the foundation of Tianxuan Mountain.
The swords of all the disciples of Tianxuan Mountain will be sent to the Yaoguang Sword Pool after the disciple passes away.
Infused with the sword intent of countless disciples, the power of these spiritual swords is also increasing day by day. This has also resulted in the fact that as long as the disciples in Tianxuan Mountain have spiritual swords, they can explode with combat power that is much stronger than other warriors in the same realm.
When a senior like Meng Ziliang came to Tianxuan Peak, instead of visiting the headmaster and elders of Tianxuan Peak, he chose to come directly to the Yaoguang Sword Pond. This made Chen Hui secretly worried that Meng Ziliang was It's not that he covets the treasure in Yao's lightsaber pool.
If something went wrong in the Yaoguang Sword Pool because of him, even if he had a hundred lives, it might not be enough for him to apologize.
So just now he specially winked at his fellow disciple, signaling him to leave quickly and inform the other disciples of Tianxuan Peak about the news.
Standing in front of Tianchi Cliff at this moment, Chen Hui couldn't help but feel a little nervous. From time to time, he looked back behind him, hoping that the elders of Tianxuan Peak who were guarding him had not arrived yet. How could an inner disciple like him deal with such a situation? Big shots are a bit too pushy.
Meng Ziliang didn't seem to notice Chen Hui's absent-mindedness, but came to the cliff that day.
Tianchi Cliff is a cliff mouth more than ten feet high. The front seems to have been cut open by a sword, and the surface is smooth and flat.
It seemed that someone had carved two lines of writing on it, but it had been scratched with a sharp object. The original content could no longer be seen clearly. Only the words "sword", "black" and "white" were vaguely visible.
Meng Ziliang just looked at the cliff face quietly, saying nothing for a long time.
Chen Hui waited for a long time, but did not see the elders coming from the sect. He became more and more anxious. However, when he saw that Meng Ziliang, who was standing in front of Tianchi Cliff, did not seem to go any further and entered the Yaoguang Sword Pond, he He breathed a sigh of relief again.
"Senior...this is Tianchi Cliff..." He looked at the other person and whispered, while observing the expression on the other person's face, trying to figure out what the other person's purpose was.
"Yes." Meng Ziliang still looked up at the cliff, not reacting much to Chen Hui's inquiry.
Chen Hui took a deep breath and asked: "Uh... senior, we have arrived at Tianchi Cliff today. Where do you want to go next?"
Meng Ziliang shook his head when he heard this: "Here he is... not going anywhere."
"You're not going anywhere?" Chen Hui was stunned, a little confused by this answer.
"Do you know what was written on it?" But then Meng Ziliang suddenly asked.
Chen Hui blinked and thought carefully: "I've heard people talk about it before, it seems to be some kind of Jian Ruotian Ruler... But this place had been destroyed when I entered. Except for the older generation, almost no one mentioned it. And, I know it so well..."
There was no hint of displeasure or anger on Meng Ziliang's face at this answer. He just nodded his head clearly, and then asked: "Have you been curious about who I am along the way? Who and what are you here for?"
Chen Hui was stunned for a moment, a little frightened, and said with a dry smile: "I can't guess the thoughts of a person like Senior. I just want to know if Senior has any acquaintances in Tianxuan Mountain, so I can Send someone to inform the elders in the sect to treat you well to prevent neglect."
Chen Hui's words were quite appropriate and smart.
When Meng Ziliang heard this, he couldn't help but look at him with admiration: "You do know how to speak."
Chen Hui scratched his head and said with a dry smile: "Senior, this is just the minimum way to treat guests."
Probably because he felt that Meng Ziliang really didn't have any ill intentions, Chen Hui's tense mind relaxed a little.
"Then what are those black things that Senior used his sword to take out from our bodies?" He bravely asked the doubts in his heart.
Meng Ziliang said lightly: "Some of the auras of foreign gods that you accidentally contaminated."
"Huh?" Chen Hui was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then his expression suddenly changed: "The aura of an alien god?"
Many of the disciples behind him also looked horrified.
For most ordinary people, the power of external gods is no more than a savage beast, which makes people talk about it with dismay.
What's more, just yesterday, the entire Ganquan Peak family was wiped out because of this. When they heard that there was such a thing in their bodies, their hearts naturally tightened and their faces looked horrified.
"Could it be that the alien god who brought disaster to Ganquan Peak yesterday is still alive and lurking in Tianxuan Mountain?" Chen Hui asked with an ugly face.
Meng Ziliang said: "That's not the case. That alien god was able to destroy Ganquan Peak because it had been lurking for a long time and seduced a suitable host. The aura on your body comes from another alien god..."
"Well, maybe it can't be said to be an alien god, but an ancient god who chose to merge with an alien god..."
"Is there such a monster lurking in Tianxuan Mountain?" Chen Hui was shocked when he heard this.
His expression changed and he looked at Meng Ziliang doubtfully.
Such news was too sensational, but the lessons learned from the past were still vivid in his mind, and he did not dare to be completely sure of the truth or falsehood of the other party's words. After much deliberation, he still had to have an elder in the family make the decision.
When it comes to the safety of the sect, Chen Hui is no longer as timid as before. He looked at Meng Ziliang seriously, cupped his hands and said, "Senior, if this is true, then it is of great importance."
"Senior, please wait here for a moment and allow me to go and report to the sect. If you really have evidence to prove the truth of this matter, senior, you can inform the elders in my sect. If this can help the sect overcome this disaster, I, Tianxuan Mountain, There will definitely be a generous reward!”
After saying this, Chen Hui turned around and walked away, thinking that even if he risked being reprimanded by the headmaster, he would still report the matter to avoid the tragedy of Ganquan Peak happening again.
When Meng Ziliang heard this, he shook his head: "No need."
"Huh?" Chen Hui frowned, with a somewhat unkind look on his face: "Senior, what do you mean? You just said that my Tianxuan Mountain hides something more terrifying than the alien god who caused trouble yesterday, why don't you need to report it now? Is it possible? Are you kidding me?"
"We know that our cultivation is not high and we cannot get into the eyes of our seniors. No matter how much our seniors tease us, we will never dare to criticize it at all. But how can we joke about the rise and fall of our sect?"
Meng Ziliang looked at Chen Hui who was a little annoyed, but he was not angry. Instead, his eyes became more and more approving. He smiled slightly, looked behind him, and then said: "I mean you don't have to make this trip..."
"They're coming."
Chen Hui was stunned and subconsciously turned his head to follow Meng Ziliang's gaze.
I saw several figures on the mountain road leading to the top of Tianxuan Peak slowly walking towards here.
These people are not the guardian elders of Tianxuan Peak...
But at this moment, the peak masters of various sacred peaks who should be in Lingsang Palace discussing countermeasures for the tragedy that happened at Ganquan Peak yesterday!
