at the same time.
Qufu Mountain.
Shaoyang, Qian Xin, Jun Ziyi, Shao Yue, Man Zhongli, Ning Xiang and Silver Moon Demon Bear gathered on the training ground in the back mountain.
All of them looked cold and solemn, their faces full of solemnity.
Shao Yang held the spear in his hand tightly and looked at Jun Ziyi eagerly: "How is it? Have you heard anything from Miss Luo?"
Jun Ziyi's tense face was full of despair: "The soul jade that sent the message is almost broken, but I still can't contact her."
Man Zhongli said angrily: "Since she is unreliable, we can't wait any longer and must find the master as soon as possible! Otherwise, when those forces arrive first, it will be too late."
Gan Xin said bitterly: "It's useless. With our strength, even if we find a master, we will only drag him down."
Shao Yue nodded, "It will become a burden."
Thinking of the word 'burden', her eyes instantly became wet, filled with self-blame and helplessness.
Shao Yang felt the flames of war swell in his chest, and said uncontrollably: "But we have no other way. Even if it will drag us down, we might as well try our best to distract the master from the pursuit of several forces before we drag him down."
Man Zhongli nodded in agreement: "Master has been protecting us all the way. It's time for us to do something for him. Even if we can't lure those forces away, we can at least pass the news to the master and let him run away. .”
Gan Xin's dull voice sounded: "With the master's personality, if he knew we were gone, how could he still bear to escape alone!"
"Waiting here is the greatest help to him!"
"Our strength is too weak to be able to help him at all."
Qian Xin's words became softer and softer as he spoke, and the more he spoke, the more choked up he became. In the end, two lines of tears fell from his wet red eyes due to anxiety.
She hated herself so much, why she hadn't tried her best all these years, why she was still so weak, and why she didn't have enough time to grow.
Shao Yue sobbed: "Can we just wait here for the master to come back?"
Ning Xiang sobbed: "But what if... the master never comes back?"
Wow~
The Silver Moon Demon Bear felt the depressed and depressed mood of everyone, and also let out a sad roar, seeming to feel helpless about his own strength.
Jun Ziyi's moist red eyes suddenly flashed with determination, and he said resolutely: "If Xiaoxi hasn't heard back by the time it gets dark, or if she doesn't want to come to Qufu Mountain, I...I will go home and try to win the family's rights." shelter."
Qianxin held Jun Ziyi's arm sadly: "Xiaoyi~ You, you are so unpopular at home, they won't care about you, they will definitely make you suffer a lot, and your family... The Jun family has always been very particular. With so many benefits, it is impossible for them to agree to protect the master."
Tears welled up in the corners of Jun Ziyi's eyes, and he said desperately: "We have to give it a try after all. If we don't even help the master... what will the master do?"
Man Zhongli clenched his fists in grief and anger, "I hate it so much. If you give me a few more years, I will definitely be strong enough to protect my master..."
"Who is not the same!" Shaoyang clenched the spear and slammed it toward the ground in grief and anger. The broken ground was like his helpless heart.
After thinking for a moment, Qian Xin seemed to have made a difficult decision and said in a deep voice: "Time is too ruthless. It does not allow us to become very powerful immediately and have the strength to help the master immediately, but we..."
After a pause, Qian Xin's tone became more decisive, "We can seek help from others outside and join other factions. Doesn't Master often teach us how to 'take advantage of others'?"
Shao Yang's expression turned cold: "Are you planning to leave the master and go back to your Qian Tian Sect?"
It's no wonder Shao Yang thinks too much, among them is Qianxin Tutor, who has such a background.
As soon as he said this, everyone else looked at Qian Xin and suddenly became conflicted.
Gan Xin stomped his feet in anger, twisted his slender hands directly towards Shaoyang's waist, and said angrily: "What kind of person do you think I am? I have sworn an oath, now that I recognize my master,
It is impossible to go back on your word in this life! "
Shao Yang subconsciously dodged, but when he saw that Qian Xin was so angry that real tears flowed out of his eyes. He realized that he had said something in a hurry, so he honestly accepted her pinch, treating it as a way to vent his emotions. .
Seeing Qian Xin's behavior, everyone felt even more uncomfortable and began to take her opinions seriously.
Jun Ziyi murmured: "I'll try to go home and take advantage of it; Brother Shao can join the Zhan Zong. With the token given by Brother Chu Yunjing, the Zhan Zong should take him seriously; Sister Xin can also return her job." Tianzong; but where should Ah Yue, Xiang'er and Fatty go? And how should Xiao Yin be settled? These are all questions."
Shao Yue and the others lowered their heads in frustration. They already felt helpless due to their lack of strength, but now they felt a little bit sadder and powerless.
My mood was extremely depressed.
Shao Yang comforted him just now: "Far water cannot save the near fire. Even if we can find a suitable destination and join other forces, how can we easily persuade that force to take action?"
After some discussion.
The perseverance that Qian Xin had just emerged has withered again. Although their physiques have been improved by Ye Fan, they are already considered the top among their peers, and the same is true for their strength. It is not difficult to join the forces of other factions and attract attention, but they want the forces to come forward in many uncertainties. It is extremely difficult for Hong Xia to risk offending so many forces and protect her.
"Also, let's take a long-term view."
Qianxin sighed in frustration.
At this moment, Feng Yuan, who was guarding the mountain, suddenly came over. qδ.net
Accompanying him were a rugged, muscular man and a very charming woman.
Qi Zong, Master of Sword Hall;
Huaxian Valley, Deputy Valley Master.
Those who come are all respectable people.
Man Zhongli suddenly became vigilant and shouted directly at the Master of the Sword Hall: "What are you doing here? Even if the master is in trouble now, I will not follow you to the Qi Sect, let alone accept you as my master."
Qiangwei, the deputy valley master of Huaxian Valley, watched Man Zhongli's performance from the sidelines, and a touch of relief flashed in her calm eyes. She admired this master's loyalty.
At the same time, from the corner of his eye, he glanced at Shao Yue, who was standing slightly on tiptoe in the crowd, and saw that his little face was filled with a bit of anxiety and resentment because of Man Zhongli's words. He couldn't help but laugh in his heart: "They are really an interesting group of people." brat.
The Master of the Sword Hall raised a cold eyebrow and snorted heavily: "Boy, in your eyes, I am so unworthy that you steal someone's disciple?"
Man Zhongli remained vigilant and said, "If it's not the case, then what are you doing here?"
At the same time, I was also curious as to why Feng Yuanping, who was always very clever, let people in so easily without opening his eyes.
Feng Yuan looked at Man Zhongli's questioning gaze, smiled awkwardly, and explained: "Is the Master of the Sword Hall here because of your master's instructions?"
"Master's instructions?" Man Zhongli was startled and looked at the sword hall master suspiciously: "When did master ask you? Don't lie to me!"
The Master of the Sword Hall just took out a piece of letter paper.
There are only eight characters on it:
'Use clumsiness to hide skill, be strong but not stiff.
The handwriting is green and powerful, the tip of the pen is like a sword, sharp but not ostentatious.
It's my master's handwriting.
Man Zhongli recognized it at a glance. Just by seeing such handwriting, he was already convinced of the Master of the Sword Hall's intention.
What's more, the eight characters on the paper are the essence of Ba Gang Fist that only he and his master know.
At that moment, I firmly believed in the master's instructions.
The Master of the Sword Hall just spoke bluntly: "What your master asked me for that day in Qi Zong was to ask me to protect you in this joint, regardless of external pressure, and bring you back to Qi Zong to practice."
Man Zhongli frowned and carefully studied the words of the Sword Hall Master, and said suspiciously: "You really didn't lie to me? How could the master have been planning for so long? And also calculated that those forces would be interested in him?"
The Master of the Sword Hall shook his head, "When he begged me that day, he didn't say it would be like this.
Jing, I just say that one day, he may offend many people, and the entire soul master world may not be able to tolerate him. As his disciples, you will be implicated. For this reason, he begged me. "
Man Zhongli was shocked.
Ning Xiang muttered at this time: "No wonder that day when I saw the master leaving the stone pavilion, he bowed his head with his hands clasped... It turned out that he was really asking for help."
Upon hearing this, Man Zhongli suddenly clenched his fists, his nails digging into his flesh due to the sadness in his heart, and he felt extremely uncomfortable.
He was still convinced that Ning Xiang was wrong and that the master would never do such a lowly and begging thing, but he didn't expect that not only did he do it, but it was also for him.
To think that his master, such a proud and lonely person, would beg for help for himself at a low profile...
Man Zhongli felt indescribable sadness in his heart, and was choked to the point of being unable to speak. It was as if a piece of coal was stuck in his throat, and even breathing was in severe pain.
The Master of the Sword Hall took advantage of the situation and said: "Since I complied with your master's instructions that day, I will not break the promise. The choice depends on you, whether you are willing to follow me back to the Qi Sect, or continue to stay here and become your master. drag."
The word "drag" is like a sharp needle, breaking down the last line of defense in Man Zhongli's heart.
Man Zhongli suddenly fell to his knees weakly, and an almost roaring cry of grief and pain rang out.
a long time.
As tears fell from his wet red eyes, his dull voice also sounded:
"I...follow you!"
"teacher."
The Master of the Sword Hall smiled knowingly after hearing this. It was expected that Man Zhongli would deliberately emphasize the title he addressed him. If he switched to the master's sect so easily, he would actually look down upon him.
Knowing Man Zhongli's own excellence, calling him "teacher" was enough to satisfy him.
Shao Yang, Qian Xin and others looked at this scene with emotion, but none of them spoke.
At this moment, a doubt emerged in their hearts.
That's my master. Why did he expect all this so early?
Or--
What the Master of the Sword Hall said was that their master's instructions were not actually based on the current situation where many forces were threatening their fortunes?
Is there a greater danger in their master's plan?
After all, although there are many Xuanhong, it would be a bit too much to say that the entire soul master world cannot accommodate them. Moreover, with Renxin Academy here, as long as they can't proclaim themselves, they will definitely not be implicated too much.
Think about it this way.
Everyone felt that their hearts were countless times heavier.
The situation of hanging red is already like this. If there really is a greater danger, how terrible would it be?
We must borrow the momentum as soon as possible!
Otherwise, the current helplessness may happen again in the near future!
this moment.
Everyone's hearts became extremely firm.
It's their turn too.
Have done something for the master.
