It was quiet inside the cave. Ji Liao could only hear the footsteps of him and Mo Xiang. Although the cave was dark, they were both immortal cultivators, so this was not a problem in their eyes.
It didn't take long for the two of them to reach the end of the cave. As expected, there was a completely decomposed goshawk corpse in the deepest part of the cave.
Mo Xiang stepped forward and was about to destroy the goshawk's body, but was stopped by Ji Liao.
"do not move!"
Mo Xiang glanced at Ji Liao in surprise and asked, "What's wrong?"
"If this corpse is destroyed, it will inevitably cause subtle changes here. The ancestor of the Huang family is a monk in the foundation-building stage and has strong spiritual consciousness. If we find out, the two of us will be digging our own graves if we are stuck here." Ji Liao said something.
He understood that Mo Xiang, as a woman, liked to stay in clean places, but at this time, she couldn't worry about running away as much as before.
Mo Xiang frowned, glanced at Goshawk's body, took two steps back, and then found a clean place to sit down.
Ji Liao also found a place to sit down, thought for a while and asked, "Senior Sister Mo, is your magic weapon safe? Will Senior Brother Wen be fine in it?"
Mo Xiang chuckled lightly, "Don't worry, that magic weapon will not only cause no harm to the people inside, but it will also be of great benefit."
"Well, that's good." The only thing Ji Liao can't let go of now is the seriously injured Wen Changming. If Wen Changming dies, he really doesn't know how to face Xu Luning in the future.
"Junior brother Ji, do you want to check it out?" Mo Xiang asked again casually.
"No, lest the smell of Brother Wen's blood spread." Ji Liao replied.
"Haha, Junior Brother Ji, you are really cautious." Seeing Ji Liao being so cautious, Mo Xiang said with a chuckle.
"The world of immortality is different from the ordinary world. I walk alone in the world of immortality. If I hadn't been careful in everything, I might have died dozens of times."
"That's true. By the way, Junior Brother Ji, are you familiar with Senior Brother Lu Zhu?" Mo Xiang changed the topic and mentioned Lu Zhu, who was also a disciple of Chixia Peak with her.
Ji Liao's eyes flashed slightly and he asked, "What does Senior Sister Mo mean by this?"
"Senior Brother Lu Zhu is the genius of our Chixia Peak. He is very popular at ordinary times. There are few people among the four peaks who don't know him. Before carrying out this mission, Senior Brother Lu Zhu even went to my residence to look for me. But he came to me because of you."
Ji Liao was even more confused and didn't understand the meaning of Mo Xiang's words, "Senior Sister Mo, please tell me directly."
"Senior Brother Lu Zhu came to me because he wanted me to take care of you during the mission, but it seems that is not necessary now. On the contrary, I still have to hold your thigh." Mo Xiang said.
"Huh? Let you take care of me?" When Ji Liao heard Mo Xiang tell the reason why Lu Zhu was looking for him, he couldn't react for a while and muttered.
"Exactly!" Mo Xiang responded.
Ji Liao frowned and began to think, but after a moment his brows relaxed and he figured out the cause and effect.
In fact, the news that Ji Liao reappeared after seven years of disappearance had already reached Lu Zhu's ears. However, because Ji Liao had to be busy with so many things, he temporarily forgot about several of his old friends in the Purple Air Sect. At the back of his head, Lu Zhu happened to be busy with something and could not escape to find Ji Liao. Later, he learned that Ji Liao had accepted a task jointly carried out by the four peaks. He found out that among the disciples of Chixia Peak who accepted the task, he was related to him. We were familiar with Mo Xiang, so we went to find Mo Xiang and asked Mo Xiang to take care of Ji Liao.
Ji Liao was deeply moved after thinking about this. He and Lu Zhu met by chance, but they had experienced several life and death disasters together, so it could be considered a life-long friendship.
Ji Liao understands Lu Zhu's nature, he is free and easy-going, and he has an easy-going personality. Lu Zhu also contributed a lot to him when he became a disciple of the Purple Air Sect. Ji Liao keeps these kindnesses in his heart.
Ji Liao did not expect that Lu Zhu would take the initiative to ask Mo Xiang for help this time for him. You must know that Lu Zhu is a top talent and Mo Xiang is just an outer disciple. It is very valuable that Lu Zhu can put down his body and open this mouth for him. .
Thinking about it on the other hand, he disappeared for seven years and reappeared without notifying Lu Zhu immediately. Compared with the two, Ji Liao felt that what he had done was too inappropriate.
"I must have been missing for seven years, and Lu Zhu still doesn't know that I have broken through the eighth level of Qi." Ji Liao said to himself sadly.
The last time he met Lu Zhu at the auction, Ji Liao was still at the sixth level of Naqi. After leaving the auction and returning to his residence, he got a liquid condensation pill. With the help of that pill, he broke through He reached the eighth level of Naqi and obtained an enlightenment technique. Only because of this did he disappear silently in the Purple Air Sect for seven years.
"Yes, that's why I asked you if you are familiar with Senior Brother Lu Zhu?" Mo Xiang asked again with a smile on his lips.
Ji Liao nodded.
"We are very familiar. We are best friends."
Ji Liao has been walking alone in the world of immortality for too long, and occasionally feels lonely. But after listening to Mo Xiang's words just now, Ji Liao felt a strange warmth in his heart. He decided to return to Ziqi this time. Zong immediately went to visit Lu Zhu, not letting Lu Zhu down.
"By the way, did you rely on your own understanding of the talismans, or did you have guidance from family elders?" Mo Xiang asked again.
"I realized it myself." Ji Liao replied.
"Then you are really awesome. It would be great if you were a disciple of our Chixia Peak." Mo Xiang complimented Ji Liao.
Ji Liao smiled shyly and said nothing.
After the conversation with Mo Xiang just now, the barrier between the two of them was much reduced, so they were less wary of each other, and the atmosphere of the conversation became more relaxed.
After a long time, the two of them stopped talking and closed their eyes to adjust their breathing.
The stars in the sky outside the cave shone brightly, and a snow-white crescent moon hung high in the sky. At this moment, a streak of earthy yellow light emitted this majestic spiritual pressure and penetrated the night, quickly passing through the void.
After a while, the earth-yellow light turned back again, and a middle-aged monk wearing earth-yellow robes was revealed. He was the ancestor of the Huang family.
The ancestor of the Huang family narrowed his narrow eyes, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and a look of sullenness appeared on his face.
"The auras of those two people should have disappeared here. Why are they missing now?"
The ancestors of the Huang family used all their strength to chase down Ji Liao and Mo Xiang. Although they still couldn't catch up with the Sniffling Wolf, they were not far behind. The ancestors of the Huang family were in the foundation-building period and knew that Ji Liao and others used that kind of terrifying escape speed to persevere. It didn't take long, so he chased along the weak aura left by Ji Liao, and when he got here, the aura suddenly disappeared.
The ancestor of the Huang family knew that Ji Liao and the others must have found a secret place to hide because their spiritual power could not support them, and the hiding place must be nearby.
He looked at the endless dense forest below him, thought about it for a moment, and flew down to the top of a mountain. The light on his body converged, and he gathered his breath. He found a stone and sat down, and his consciousness spread out and enveloped him. A land with a radius of hundreds of miles.
The night passed quietly.
Ji Liao slowly opened his eyes, and there was still darkness as far as he could see. The cave entrance in the distance was just a small point of light, and the sun couldn't shine here at all.
"It's dawn!" Mo Xiang opened her eyes at this time and said.
Ji Liao nodded.
"Then let's go out." Mo Xiang didn't want to stay in this cave for a moment, and wanted to go out as soon as it dawned.
Ji Liao thought for a moment and shook his head, "No, it's not yet confirmed whether the foundation-building monk has left. We'll still stay for a while."
"Ah? You still want to stay here!" Upon hearing Ji Liao's words, Mo Xiang said reluctantly.
"Senior Sister Mo, don't worry about this at this time, your life is still important." Ji Liao looked at Mo Xiang and immediately reminded him.
"Okay." Mo Xiang sighed.
Time passed little by little, and the sun gradually rose into the sky. The midday sunshine shone on the jungle. The birds and beasts in the jungle also became active. The cries of apes and tigers echoed in the jungle.
The two of them still didn't leave the cave, and then the sun set again and the moon hung high in the night sky again.
"When are we leaving? It's dark outside, Junior Brother Ji!" Mo Xiang asked casually.
"Tomorrow at noon, if there is nothing happening outside, we will leave." Ji Liao replied.
During this day, Mo Xiang asked Ji Liao no less than a dozen times. Ji Liao was annoyed by the questions and simply set a time to leave.
Ji Liao knew that they had made such a big fuss in the Huang family, and at the same time, Zheng Tianlong escaped from them separately. The ancestor of the Huang family would not stay in one place for too long without knowing whether he would live or die. If it was based on his character, he would definitely do it. Stay here for at least ten days and then go out when it is completely safe.
But Mo Xiang kept urging him to leave here, and Ji Liao could only agree although he was reluctant.
"I have to stay here for another day!" When Mo Xiang heard that he was going to stay for another day, he immediately quit and jumped up and said.
"Senior Sister Mo, let me say it again, we will leave at noon tomorrow. If you want to leave, please feel free to leave." Ji Liao's face darkened and he said coldly.
Mo Xiang looked at Ji Liao's cold face, her eyes moved, and a smile suddenly appeared on her face, "It's better to follow Junior Brother Ji's wish, we will leave until noon tomorrow."
After that, he said no more and sat back again.
On a hilltop, the ancestor of the Huang family was pacing back and forth, his face full of uneasiness and anxiety.
He has been guarding here for a day, but he has not seen Ji Liao and others. Ji Liao really guessed it. The ancestor of the Huang family began to doubt whether his judgment was wrong. If it was wrong, then how could Ji Liao be wrong at this time? I am afraid that people have long since escaped from the range of his pursuit, and there is still one person whose life or death is unknown. If they are really allowed to return to the Purple Air Sect, then the revenge of the Purple Air Sect on the Huang family is simply unimaginable.
He hesitated whether to leave immediately and quickly return to the Baiyue Mountains to seek help from the Blood Soul Sect.
After thinking for a long time, he gritted his teeth and said, "Wait a little longer. I've been waiting for so long anyway. If they don't show up tomorrow, I will immediately leave for the Blood Soul Sect to ask for help."
