"Okay, I believe you! As long as you take care of Ying'er, I can die with peace of mind!"
After receiving Bu Xiaotian's promise, the woman breathed a sigh of relief and seemed to let go of her worries.
"Ying'er, my sister-in-law can no longer... take care of you. From now on, you will follow Xiao... brother Xiaotian. You must treat him... as your biological brother. He will... take good care of you..." the woman finished. At these words, the little girl beside her nodded with tears in her eyes. She raised her hand to wipe away the tears on the little girl's face, but her hand fell down feebly when she raised it halfway, lifeless.
The little girl saw that the woman looked much better, but she suddenly became silent at this moment. She immediately rushed to her sister-in-law's side and cried sadly: "Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...Sister-in-law...Wuuuuu...Sister-in-law, wake up!" Sister-in-law! Ying'er must listen to my sister-in-law from now on. Sister-in-law, wake up, oh oh oh..."
The little girl held the woman's arm and cried very sadly. Seeing this scene, Bu Xiaotian and Chu Yungong also felt unbearable in their hearts.
Especially Bu Xiaotian, when he thought that the little girl's life experience was very similar to his own, he couldn't help but step forward and wanted to speak to comfort him, but he didn't know how to speak.
"Wow...Sister-in-law! Sister-in-law!" The little girl cried more and more sadly, and in the end she burst into tears, crying heartbreakingly.
"Sister-in-law, daddy has left me, please don't...don't leave me alone, okay? Ugh..."
After some time, Ying'er fainted from crying, and Bu Xiaotian quickly held her in his arms.
Chu Yungong dug some simple graves and buried the woman and her group. However, the corpses of those from the Black Flame Palace did not receive such a good treatment. He casually made a gesture and released a fire. In a moment, it turns into ashes and is allowed to scatter in the wind.
After finishing everything, the two of them took a look at the sky. The setting sun was like blood, hanging on the top of the mountain in the distance.
The two of them flew directly towards the Yuxu Gate with their swords in their sleepy shadows.
Not long after, a stream of light outside the Yuxumen Wuji Peak came closer and closer, falling straight towards the top of the mountain.
Wuji Peak is the main peak of Yuxumen, the first of the five peaks, and the highest peak among them.
Looking from a distance, it towers into the clouds and sits in the center of the other four peaks. It feels like it is protected by the four peaks. The ancient trees on the peak are towering, birds and animals are psychic, and clouds and mists rise from time to time in the mountain, which adds to the mysterious and far-reaching atmosphere. It is truly a spiritual mountain. blessed land.
On the top of the peak is the Sanqing Hall, the main hall of Yuxu Gate. The main hall stands between the sea of clouds, with white jade steps, glazed tiles, blue bricks and wooden columns, cornices and brackets, making it magnificent.
Clouds are lingering above the palace, white cranes are flying, and the sound of chanting and chanting can be faintly heard from it. In front of the hall is a huge square, covering an area of several hundred feet. The railings on the ground are all made of white marble. It looks like an immortal family. meteorological!
The light fell on the square, revealing the figures among them, none other than Bu Xiaotian and the others.
At this time, the little girl had also woken up. The little child had never seen such a fairy scene before. She was stunned when she saw such a scene. She looked around all the way and seemed to have forgotten everything that happened earlier.
Bu Xiaotian and Chu Yungong walked quickly through the White Jade Square with curious expressions on their faces. They only greeted other disciples they met on the way.
Not long after, the three of them walked to the end of the square, climbed the ninety-nine bluestone steps, walked around a giant cauldron in front of the hall, and then climbed the nine stone steps to the front of the main hall.
He bowed to the disciples on duty outside the palace gate and said, "Junior brother, we are Chu Yungong and Bu Xiaotian, disciples of Purple Thunder Peak. We have something urgent to ask to see the master, please inform us."
"Senior Brother Chu, Senior Brother Bu, wait a moment." The disciple returned the salute first, and when he saw the shadow next to Bu Xiaotian covered in blood, he immediately turned around and entered the hall without delaying.
Not long after, the disciple was seen walking out of the hall and said to the three of them: "Two senior brothers, please follow me."
Then he turned around and took the three of them into the hall.
Several people entered the main hall and saw the statue of the Sanqing God enshrined in the main hall. There was an offering table in front of the statue, with incense burners and fruits placed on it. There were three stone steps in front of the offering table, and five sandalwood chairs were placed side by side under the stone steps. At this time, Only the middle chair sat on an old Taoist priest with a fluttering beard and an immortal spirit. He was the current headmaster of Yuxu Sect, Master Xuanyun.
Seeing several people approaching, the old Taoist priest first opened his mouth and nodded to the disciple on duty: "Yun Qing, please go out first."
"Disciple, resign!"
After the disciple left the palace gate, Master Xuanyun asked again: "What happened to make you, the most naughty disciple of Purple Thunder Peak, so anxious?"
"Reporting to the Headmaster, the Situ Villa has been destroyed by the Black Flame Palace of the Demon Sect!" Chu Yungong did not dare to smile playfully in front of the Headmaster and replied with a bow.
"What? Is this happening? Please tell me in detail." Master Xuanyun gently stroked his long-bearded hand and looked at the three of them.
"Today, my junior brother Bu Xiaotian and I went down the mountain to do some work. On the way back..."
In this way, in this way, Chu Yungong described the encounter with the people of the Demon Cult to Master Xuanyun in detail.
Master Xuanyun had been listening quietly without any special reaction. He just raised his eyes and glanced at Bu Xiaotian and Yupei when he heard about it, but didn't say much until Chu Yungong finished speaking for a while. , then said in deep thought: "This matter is really not a trivial matter. It seems that the Demon Cult has been ready to make another move in recent years."
Then he raised his head and called out, "Yun Zhen, please come to Wuji Peak quickly, the masters of the four peaks Zi Lei, Yu Zhu, Chi Ling, and Wuyin. We have important matters to discuss!"
"Headmaster, where is the Master of Purple Thunder Peak..."
The disciples outside the hall seemed a little hesitant when they heard that Purple Thunder Peak Master was being invited. This can't be blamed on him. In fact, Purple Thunder Peak Master Xiao Tianxiong has been drinking alcohol all year round and doesn't care about the affairs of the sect at all. Even if he goes to invite him, he may not be able to invite him. I can definitely invite you.
"It doesn't matter, just tell him that if something happens to the Situ family, he will definitely come over." Master Xuanyun knew what he was hesitating about and ordered directly.
"Yes, Headmaster!" Upon hearing this, the disciple named Yunzhen responded directly, and then heard the sound of footsteps gradually disappearing.
After a moment, four streams of light rose from the square and flew towards the four peaks respectively.
At this time, in the main hall, Chu Yungong looked at Master Xuanyun, seeming hesitant to speak.
Seeing him like this, Master Xuanyun said, "If you have anything to say, just ask."
"Headmaster, I know about Situ Villa, but I don't know how this Situ Villa is related to my Yuxu Sect and Zi Lei Peak. From what the woman said, it seems that it has a deep connection with our Yuxu Sect?" Chu Yungong After getting permission, he asked the doubts in his heart.
"That happened many years ago, and it's normal that you don't know. This Situ Villa is indeed closely related to Yuxu Sect and your Purple Thunder Peak.
The old owner of Situ Villa is named Situ Qingyun. He is originally a disciple of Purple Thunder Peak. In terms of seniority, he should be regarded as your master's uncle. My master's uncle has a very profound cultivation. He was the one who took care of your master when he first started. .
But he was the only son of the Situ family, and he couldn't let go of his mortal bond, so he finally went down the mountain.
After he returned to the village, he married a wife and had four children, two boys and two girls. The family was also happy and had frequent contacts with Yuxumen.
However, one hundred and fifty years ago, the good and the evil fought at Moyun Cliff. Master Qingyun felt that as a disciple of the Yuxu Sect, he could not just sit back and watch, so he rushed to Moyun Cliff with his eldest son, eldest daughter and a group of friends he had always made.
In that battle, both good and evil suffered heavy casualties, and the Situ family suffered heavy losses. The old village owner died in the battle, the eldest son Situ Yang also died of serious injuries, and the eldest daughter Situ Xue was missing. Everyone speculated that she died in that battle.
Your master was also depressed because of that battle and drank heavily all day long.
Since then, the only direct descendants of the Situ family are the ten-year-old Situ Lei and the eight-year-old Situ Yue. The Situ family has plummeted.
At that time, the Yuxu Sect also suffered heavy losses. Almost all the masters in the sect were killed in the battle. It can be said that their vitality was severely damaged and they were unable to take care of the affairs of the world.
Fortunately, with the support of several distant relatives of the Situ family, the two brothers and sister were raised and the last bit of Situ Villa's foundation was saved.
In that battle that year, the previous and current master of the Black Flame Palace died at the hands of Uncle Qingyun. This incident was probably done by the Black Flame Palace to avenge the past. "
After Master Xuanyun said that he wanted to ask Bu Xiaotian something, he said to him: "I know what you want to ask, but there are some things that are too early to tell you now. You don't need to ask more. You will know it when the time comes." You understand everything. You should take this little girl to a later point to rest. She must be very tired after being frightened for a day."
Seeing that Master Xuanyun didn't want to say any more, he closed his eyes and began to rest his mind.
Chu Yungong and Bu Xiaotian excused themselves, and a sweep disciple took the three of them to a side room in the back hall. The little girl looked extremely tired, and fell asleep as soon as she touched the bed.
Bu Xiaotian and Chu Yungong sat at the table in silence, each thinking.
About half an hour later, the sky had turned dark, and several bright lights suddenly lit up in the distance, falling in front of the Sanqing Hall almost simultaneously.
The four peak masters have arrived.
After the light dissipated, four figures were revealed. The one wearing a purple robe with a big wine gourd on his waist looked drunk. Who else could it be if he wasn't Xiao Tianxiong, the master of Purple Thunder Peak?
Next to her is a beautiful Taoist nun wearing a moon-white Taoist robe, who is the master of Yuzhu Peak, Xuanyu Zhenren.
Next to Master Xuanyu is Taoist Xuanhuo, the master of Chiling Peak, who is wearing a red robe.
At the very edge is Master Zeng Xuanhai, the master of Kirigakure Peak, who is wearing an aqua blue robe.
The four people landed in front of and behind the hall without saying much, and walked into the main hall one by one. Master Xuanyun was already sitting quietly on a chair in the middle. Several people bowed their hands to Master Xuanyun, sat on the other four chairs in the hall, and immediately A little Taoist boy served tea to the four of them, but they didn't say anything, waiting for Master Xuanyun to speak.
Master Xuanyun was also sitting upright at this time, with the majesty of the leader fully displayed.
When the boy who poured tea left and there were only five people left in the hall, Master Xuanyun relaxed and said, "I invite all the junior brothers and sisters to come here this time. We really have important matters to discuss, so I will get straight to the point. Situ Villa was The Black Flame Palace has been wiped out, and now only Situ Ying, the only daughter of the owner Situ Lei, is left, and she is resting in the back hall wing."
"What?"
The four people all looked shocked when they heard this. Even Xiao Tianxiong, who had always been decadent and did not care about the affairs of the family, his eyes flashed and he looked at Master Xuanyun.
Master Xuanhuo, who has always had a hot temper, was even more frightened and said in anger: "How can the demon sect be so rampant? Are you really not taking our Yuxu Sect seriously? He actually did such a vicious thing. We must investigate this matter." in the end!"
"Junior Brother Xuanhuo, please calm down for a moment. You are here to discuss this matter. I would like to send a few disciples with profound cultivation to Situ Villa to investigate first. What do you think?"
"Just as this is the case, we must not act rashly to avoid encountering the trap of the demon sect." The calm Zeng Xuanhai agreed.
"I agree with the decision of the head brother." Master Xuanyu also agreed.
Xiao Tianxiong did not speak, but nodded, indicating that he had no objection.
"Okay, let's do as the head brother said. But who is the right person to go?" Seeing that the others agreed, Chi Ling also expressed his support and asked at the same time.
"Hmm..." Master Xuanyun pondered for a moment, "The people sent should not be too weak in cultivation and should be calm and alert in dealing with things. I think it is better to select an outstanding disciple from each peak and go down the mountain to investigate. Some experience can also enhance communication among disciples."
"So good!"
"As it should be!"
"Can."
"Just do it!"
