That day, the sky was dark and the air was damp and stuffy, which was a sign that the mountain rain was about to come.
A pigeon transformed into a messenger magic flew from afar, trying to stop in front of Qiong Yi. Qiong Yi recognized it as a messenger pigeon and secretly thought in his heart: It was a messenger between Su Ye and Yan Tingshen. When the letter came, has it arrived at Landai Valley? Or have you found out about Zhang Yan’s whereabouts?
As she thought, she stretched out her hand. The phantom dove rested on the back of her hand and slowly dissipated. What fell down was not a piece of paper, but a piece of tattered cloth. When she spread it out and looked at it, she could only see a few blurred words in blood. , the handwriting is messy, it is the handwriting of Yan Tingshen, and it says: Cang Yu was captured by the Demon Sect, Su Ye's life is in danger, come quickly!
With a thump in her heart, Qiong Yi clenched the cloth tightly and called out: "Sheng Jing! Come here quickly!"
Sheng Xuanyuan heard her call and came to her side with a heavy weight on his back. He didn't know what was going on: "What's wrong?"
Qiong Yi handed the blood book in his hand to him. He glanced at it briefly, and his expression suddenly became solemn: "This is Brother Yan's handwriting. Su Ye..."
"We have to get there quickly."
His tone was urgent: "Yes."
The two of them stayed in the barren mountains and ridges on the border of Luoyao for a long time, knowing nothing about the outside world. Although the situation in the world was changing, too many things could happen in just a month. When they turned around, they were already with Su and Yan. People have been separated for too long.
Sheng Xuanyuan presented the blood letter in front of Qin Hanchuan: "Sister-in-law, my brother's life is in danger. We can't delay any longer. Qiong and I must leave immediately."
Qin Hanchuan saw the dazzling dark red characters on the blood book and sighed: "Unexpected incidents, you are not worried about Cang Yu falling into the hands of the Demon Sect... That's all, I wanted to practice with you for some time." She waved it off. Waving his hand: "You go ahead, I have something to do."
When mentioning the Demon Sect, the first thing Qiong Yi thought of was Yun Ya, who was from the Soul-Fu Sect. She didn't know what role Yun Ya played in Cang Yu's incident, but now that the matter has escalated, the five clans are bound to Will intervene and ask: "Sister-in-law, are you going to find the Yue clan and ask them to destroy the demons?"
Qin Hanchuan replied: "First find out whether the news is true or not. The entry of the Demon Sect is not a trivial matter. It is not just the responsibility of the Beishan lineage." Looking at Qiong Yi, she said: "Although the results of hard training these days are remarkable, But practice is a long-term thing, not the result of a few days. The days will be longer in the future, and when you come to live in Baifen, my sister-in-law will continue to teach you."
Qiong also nodded.
So, the two of them said goodbye to Qin Hanchuan, and followed the message from the phantom pigeon that had arrived, and headed to the southwest.

Half a month ago.
Yan Tingshen and Su Ye, who had fought a battle from Qianyun Cave and got a rare thing called the "Mother and Son Stone", finally entered a bustling shopping mall while practicing. They planned to purchase some medicinal materials and pills, and changed their clothes. Buy some information on the dark market.
Yan Tingshen carefully analyzed where Zhang Yan might be hiding. He was an ordinary person with no cultivation. Even if he got Cang Yu, he couldn't make him recognize him as his master. It was like holding a hot potato that he couldn't eat. He could only "leave the sword behind". " and "sell" are two options.
From the brief observation with Zhang Yan that night, he didn't look like a member of the sect. If he didn't choose a good buyer for "selling swords", he might end up unloading the goods and killing the donkey, so Yan Ting deeply It is speculated that Zhang Yan is currently practicing hard skills, refining Qi and building a foundation, so that Cang Yu is willing to recognize him as his master.
It was a little ridiculous to think about it, but Yan Tingshen boasted that his intuition was very accurate. He thought to himself: This Yangen is mediocre and cannot be favored by heaven. He has risked his life and tried everything to become stronger. Even if he is the person who has held Cangyu for the longest time, everyone else is... I just think he is lucky.
It's ridiculous to use a mortal body to fight against other monks.
Yan Tingshen was looking forward to seeing him again, to see how far he could struggle, and to see how his game of chess would end.
Based on the above speculations, Yan Tingshen and Su Ye investigated the circulation of low-level skills in open and secret stores. If there were any suspicious things, they would follow them. No matter how well Zhang Yan hid them, people would always find them.
On this day, after purchasing dry food in the city, the two of them went to a restaurant to have a good meal and drink some wine to relieve their fatigue. Unexpectedly, they encountered a thief. It was a beggar less than one meter tall and stole the kitchen. The cooked chicken escaped from the store with extremely agile hands and feet. The cook couldn't catch him, so he had to shout for help. He said it was a rat crossing the street, and everyone shouted for him to be beaten. Several young men in gorgeous clothes at the table took action and killed the little boy. The beggar blocked the street and beat him hard, threatening to deodorize the street and beat the little robber to death.
The crowd watching the excitement on the street clapped and applauded. Su Ye couldn't bear hearing the little beggar's screams. When he was about to take action, he didn't want someone to rush in front of him and stop the group of rich guys. The man shouted: "Wearing gorgeous clothes and a gold crown with jade on his head, but he has no mercy. He is really full and doesn't know the suffering of being hungry."
The young men yelled angrily: "Who are you? Do you have the right to speak in this?"
Su Ye glanced around and saw the young man in the black black gown standing in front of the little beggar. He looked familiar. He took another closer look and thought to himself: Isn't this the same person Wu Yue has seen in the city? He is wearing a precious golden heart armor. , an unknown young man who has no skills but insists on grabbing the sword? !
The young man's voice was lazy and low: "Who am I and what does it have to do with you? What is your ability to bully the weak?"
"This little bitch steals things from the store. If you protect him, aren't you just working for the tiger?"
"So what? Is it still reasonable to bully others with power?" The young man sneered, and a silver light flashed in his hand.
Seeing that something was wrong, Su Ye rushed forward and blocked the cold light with his wind-skimming scabbard. It turned out to be the whip that came from his hand, and asked: "Hey, what do you want to do?"
When the helpless nobles behind him saw that they were armed, they all fell silent. The young man took back his long whip and smiled, "I didn't want to do anything, just to scare them. You..." He stared at Su Ye For a while, "Have we met somewhere?"
After finishing speaking, he suddenly said to himself: "Wu Yuecheng! Hey, aren't there four of you? Why are there only two left? Those two, um... they look like a very close couple, why don't they go with you?" You won’t die in the battle to seize the sword, right?”
Yan Tingshen sent away the people watching on the street, and also called away the group of wealthy young men who were cherishing their lives. He showed a plain smile to the young man: "You have reminded me that we are still rivals. If we deal with you here, it will be easy in the future." .”
"Stop! Wait a minute!" The young man put his hands in front of him: "Everyone in the world is a guest. When we meet, we will forget our grudges! Let's put aside the little unpleasantness in the past and get to know each other again."
After that, he helped the little beggar huddled in the corner and sighed: "Why are you so useless? Those people beat you, and you just let them beat you? If something like this happens again, even if you are beaten to death, you will have to Bite off a piece of their flesh. Do you hear me?”
The little beggar's face was filled with tears and he nodded. Su Ye said "tsk", raised his hand and grabbed his collar, pulled him towards the restaurant, and lectured: "What's wrong! You steal things yourself." , you have done something wrong, you should be taught a lesson! Otherwise, do you really think that you are being bullied for no reason? "
He held the little beggar down and said in a loud voice: "Stealing is wrong! Do you hear me? You are so good at stealing and robbing, why can't you work and still have to beg?" Su Ye stuffed a small piece of silver into his hands. She got into his dirty hands and pushed him into the restaurant: "Go! Go and pay for the chicken you stole, and make amends to the store." Seeing that he was stuck in place like a stake, he pushed him again : "Go quickly! Only when you are bullied for no reason should you resist fiercely. What should you do in the future? Whether you continue to sneak around, or wash your hands in a golden basin and be a good person, it depends on yourself."
The little beggar wiped his face with his sleeve, dragged long mud marks around his eyes, and ran into the restaurant.
Su Ye crossed his hands and glanced at the young man: "I don't think he led people astray."
The young man sneered: "I just saw that he was being bullied, but I didn't know that he had stolen something."
"...Hey, sophistry."
"Hey!" The young man stopped Su Ye who was about to leave: "Brother, please stay here. May I ask your name?"
Su Ye said: "Ye Yang."
"I see that you have seen rough roads, you are upright, and you are a righteous person. I want to make you a friend." The young man patted his chest and said with a smile, "My name is Cheng Shaozheng. I come from Danxiang and have been traveling alone since I left home. I really want to Make friends with the same people. Huh? This fair little brother, don’t look at me warily, I’m telling the truth!”
When Cheng Shaozheng spoke, his face was sincere. Su Ye looked at him and waved: "I happened to order a table of food and wine. Brother Cheng didn't mind and came to have a few bites."
Cheng Shaozheng listened and said with a smile: "Brother Ye is really generous." After saying that, he bowed and followed the two of them into the restaurant.
While they were drinking, the two of them got acquainted with him. They heard him say that his father ran a bank, and the bank owner's father came to have a son when he was old. He was very dear to him. He was locked at home and not allowed to go out since he was a child. It was a family tradition to whip him. He was very good at practicing martial arts, but when he came here, he realized that he was just a three-legged cat. After finishing speaking, he raised his head and sighed, and continued to drink.
Su Ye and Yan Tingshen both tried to hide things from him, but they did not admit it frankly. They said that they were each other's junior brothers. They were born in Yeluzi and were also traveling abroad. Last time, they were junior brothers and junior sisters. They temporarily separated and crossed paths. Children can join together.
Cheng Shaozheng added that when he went back to Wuyue City, he actually had no intention of seizing the Cangyu Sword. It was just that there were widespread rumors in Danxiang City, so he wanted to join in the fun, so he ran away. In the end, he almost lost his life. I never had any thoughts about Cang Yu again.
He also said that he ran away from home just to hide from someone. The person was a girl who had been engaged to him since he was a child. She was obsessed with him and stalked him. She kept saying she wanted to marry him with a loudspeaker every day. , she was really scared, and went out to hide in Tibet, hoping that as time goes by, she would stop thinking about it.
Yan Ting couldn't help but laugh after hearing this, and said with a hint of mockery, "What a good thing."
Cheng Shaozheng shook his head repeatedly.
Su Ye asked: "Isn't she too good-looking to Brother Cheng's liking?"
"The appearance is okay, but I don't like it." Cheng Shaozheng drank a glass of wine: "If you don't like it, no matter how beautiful it is, it won't matter."
Su Ye didn't understand what he was thinking: "Isn't it enough to be pretty? You said you were your childhood sweetheart, and she looks so pleasant, so why don't you just stop hiding and follow her!"
Cheng Shaozheng waved his hand: "You can't do it, you can't do it!"
The two of them laughed, thinking it was a joke. Cheng Shaozheng asked them if they had any thoughts about Cang Yujian, but Su Ye did not deny it.
"In that case, Brother Ye, Brother Yan, you might as well take me with you? Everyone else has to form a group to seize the sword. Although my cultivation level is not high, it is safer to have more people and more efforts!" He patted. Chest, and said: "I am not a sword cultivator, how can I covet the divine sword? I just want to have more people to give me guidance on my cultivation, and I hope you won't dislike me."
Yan Tingshen was about to refuse, but Su Ye thought about it again and realized that his cultivation level was indeed not high, only "open body" and his aura was orthodox, so he agreed to go with him.
"The author has something to say: Su Ye is a face-controller..."
