C9

On the mountain path, there was another small mountain. However, the trees were very dense, and it was fortunate that there was a small road that had been passed by many times in the past. It must have been the path that the villagers had taken to get to the outside.

This place was truly infuriating. They had just climbed over another mountain, yet another one without end. Could it be that the villagers spent half a month travelling back and forth through the market?

By the time the sun went down, he was already walking lazily and had stopped on a mesa.

He could not find a cave to sleep in, so he had to climb a thick tree to prevent the insects from getting in. He sat on three intersecting branches, his back against the trunk. If one looked into the distance, they could faintly see the mountains.

Watching those just passed by the mountains, once the eyes moved up, a lonely star rose, is Venus.

It was too quiet. The bird had probably returned to its nest long ago. Suddenly, he felt as if he was the only person left in this world, and the loneliness was growing stronger and stronger. He ate the steamed bun that the old man gave him. It was unknown what the taste was, but after eating three, he could no longer eat anymore. He put the rest into his bag and touched the two gourds of wine.

"It doesn't matter if I just drink a little." He said to himself luckily.

The stopper of the gourd was removed and as soon as he brought it to his nose, the aroma of the wine permeated the air. The smell was not too stimulating, and it even seemed to have a slightly fruity flavor. "After drinking it all in one gulp, my whole body felt comfortable and I didn't feel any aftereffects at all." Perhaps he thought I was someone who got drunk the moment I drank it? But — nevermind, just drink less. "

It was a sunny day again. The moon was round and the stars were scattered across the night sky. At this moment, the sky felt even more vast and unfathomable.

He was only thinking about getting some inspiration from the sky, but he didn't realize that he was drinking from the bottle one after another, leaving the old man's warning behind.

When he looked up, he found that there was not a single drop left in the gourd. He complained that he drank it too fast and it was possible that it would end tomorrow. He took out another gourd of wine to drink without thinking.

After an unknown period of time, he felt his eyelids grow heavy. The moon turned from one into two, three, four, and more. The sky was spinning and the earth was spinning. He touched his forehead, "Am I drunk? How can I get drunk so quickly?" "It seems like I've finished the two gourds of wine. How dizzy …" His head hit the tree trunk hard, then slid back to the branch. He saw a lot of people, first his parents, then Younger Sister Xue jumping up and down to pounce on him. However, the scene in front of him turned into Sima Feng with a sabre, followed by a group of people charging towards him with weapons.

"His head swelled up. He opened his eyes, sat up, and rubbed his forehead." "AHH!" It was really painful! "Huh?" He suddenly found himself sitting on the ground. He couldn't remember when he fell off the tree, nor could he remember how long he had been drunk for. The sun was shining overhead, probably the next day.

He stood up and tied the bundle to his back. After figuring out the direction, he continued on his previous route. However, not long after, a black shadow came from the front with a strong gust of wind, completely sealing off his path.

Qi Tianyun was stunned. He saw a figure as tall and as cold as a wall before his eyes. It had a unibrow and a face full of vigour. The pattern on the wide robe gave it a sense of nobility.

well-dressed man stroked his beard and looked coldly at Qi Tianyun, as if Qi Tianyun's son owed him a lot of money.

Qi Tianyun did not understand what kind of enmity such a well-dressed man would have with a nobody like him. He was about to greet him when well-dressed man spoke first, "What sect are you from? Why do you want to stir up trouble in the martial arts world?"

Hm? Qi Tianyun thought he was just talking to himself, but his serious expression didn't seem like it.

He continued, "Rumor has it that 'Silver Knife Sect' has been destroyed by someone. The person on the ground didn't know what happened to his body, and the killer's movements are strange. I don't know where he's hiding, but after hearing that, I came over from Chang An to investigate. This' Silver Knife Sect 'is a righteous man, but he died in a strange manner in a small town near the Willow Slope. According to the eyewitnesses, they had a fight with a young man, and were killed in the night. "

He stared straight at Qi Tianyun, "Someone has been killed here, but you have the guts to walk alone. I wonder what your intentions are? Can you tell me? " The underlying meaning of his words was that after Qi Tianyun killed someone, he would still calmly come and capture him. He was too arrogant and conceited. He simply treated people like they were nothing.

Qi Tianyun was confused as he mumbled, "Who the hell are you? Someone was killed over there. What does it have to do with me? I'm here!"

"I've heard that bandits have cut off all the passersby on this road, and those people were not some decent people. They actually ambushed me that day, and even wanted to kill me for money. For people like them who can do heinous things with money, what's so strange that they can't get their mouths shut?" Recalling that day when he escaped from death and those murderers turned out to be decent people, he could not help but be angry at the passing of time.

The light in his eyes gradually faded, giving off an even more terrifying feeling.

"Haha …" He sneered, "To think that you are still boasting shamelessly after harming the righteous ones!" Several hundred people from Silver Knife Sect had been massacred overnight, so their methods were quite vicious! Who would have thought that he would still be asking for it? Hehe! Then let me, this Lu, know your trick! Incidentally, this one is Alliance Leader of the Martial Arts Circles right now. As he spoke, he took a few steps forward in the blink of an eye, his right hand struck out towards Qi Tianyun's chest with a palm.

While Qi Tianyun was still in shock over the brutal massacre he mentioned, the wind from his palm had already hit his body.

"Ah--!" It was as if someone had suddenly pushed his chest with a palm, pushing his body backwards, causing him to stagger backwards. He had to use all his strength to straighten his body.

"Bam!" Qi Tianyun hit the tree heavily. Because his back was blocked by a backpack, he didn't hit the tree. However, his head clearly felt the strong impact of the tree trunk.

"In that instant, I felt as if a golden star had appeared in my eyes." "Ahh!" He held his head with both hands and gently rubbed the back of his head, which was in pain. As if there was a big lump on it, he frowned and looked at the Alliance Head in front of him with a headache. What was there to be angry about! I didn't kill him with such a heavy blow, but it looks like he won't believe me. What should I do? "This person doesn't seem like someone who would be easily dealt with. If they really don't have any chances of winning, then …

What Qi Tianyun didn't expect was that Alliance Leader of the Martial Arts Circles's surprise and headache was no less than his.

He slowly withdrew his right palm and put it down.

When he had exerted his strength just now, the counterforce had caused his arm to tingle. Moreover, his chest had also been shaken to the point where his inner breathing had become unstable. He felt a faint pain coming from his chest.

He looked at this young man in bewilderment and disbelief, as he couldn't believe that his two palms would actually meet. If his palm strikes had struck the young man, he might have even been impressed, but right now, he was using force through the air, and the young man was neither dodging nor attacking. He was actually able to block this palm strike, and the force behind him seemed to have dissipated.

He rubbed his head but didn't touch his chest, as if he hadn't been affected by the gravity at all. However, his sorry state didn't seem to be an act, could it be that it was just a slip of the hand?

Such an unfathomable person was not something that could be described with a word of admiration.

If they were to really fight, it was hard to say how confident they were.

He calmly and slowly adjusted his breathing, while at the same time preparing to prevent the other party from taking the opportunity to launch an attack.

However, after staring at him for a long while, he didn't do anything. Instead, he scratched his ears and cheeks as if he was greatly vexed.

Countless thoughts flashed through Qi Tianyun's mind, but he couldn't think of any way to retreat. He had to turn the enemy into a friend, otherwise, he would really turn into a corpse in the wilderness.

His mind had been in a mess when he suddenly came up with a few clues. Finally, he thought of an idea.

"Hehehe." There was no other way. In order to protect my life, it was hard to avoid pretending to be smiling, although it was really a bad laugh. "Actually, there is someone who can prove that I am not the murderer."

Alliance Leader of the Martial Arts Circles was surprised to see him stunned for a long time. He asked, "Who can prove this?"

Seeing that his plan had worked, Qi Tianyun laughed even more merrily: "He is Sima Family's Sima Feng. Uncle must know him. That day he also met the people that had a conflict with me, and he can testify for me."

When he heard this name, he was slightly surprised. He felt that something was amiss, and he did not want to add another formidable opponent to the mix. He said, "Since that's the case, I will find out for myself."

Qi Tianyun was overjoyed and asked carefully, "Uncle, can I leave now?"

He waved his hand and said, "Please!"

Qi Tianyun carefully circled around him, afraid that he would suddenly attack again.

He pretended not to care as he secretly prepared to defend against the enemy's sneak attack. He did not believe that the enemy was not scheming.

Qi Tianyun walked behind him, glanced at him again, then suddenly ran forward at full speed.

He turned around and glared at the young man who was running for his life like a stray dog. He could not understand, with his martial arts skills, how could he be so timid?

However, not long after, he felt a dull pain in his chest.

"He had obviously been using his inner force to dissolve it just now, so why did he — sigh, forget it. Let's go home and heal his wounds first before slowly investigating this person's background." In order to avoid meeting this person again, he had deliberately taken a long detour before he set off on his way back.

Actually, Qi Tianyun didn't dare to walk directly onto the main road. He walked left and right, choosing the rugged mountain road that was difficult to walk on. He had stepped through countless thickets of thorns and broken countless small trees that were as tall as his chest.

"Ai, before we go far, we meet so many people. I don't know if someone found out about my whereabouts, and then secretly provoked others to make things difficult for me, but it is obvious that he doesn't dare to openly come and snatch it, because if that's the case, he will also become the target of everyone. Oh! "He will definitely appear at the very last moment and get it without anyone knowing. That way, he will be able to fool others. Wouldn't this plan have been planned many years ago?"

Thinking of this, his back was covered in cold sweat. He hurriedly comforted himself that this was just a whimsical thought and no longer needed to worry about it.

The two wine gourds had long since been empty, and there was still plenty of water to be had. However, the bag of dry food was almost untouched. Suddenly, a thought flashed across my mind: That chief said that those people were all killed on the same night as I was fighting. That's why he rushed over when he heard about this. This place should be quite far from Chang'an, and a fast horse wouldn't be able to reach here on the next day.

He showed up right when I woke up.

Does that mean that someone knows exactly where I am and tells him to deal with me?

But if it's really like that, then they must know that Elder Brother Sima and I were together that night, wouldn't the lie be immediately exposed?

Who would be so stupid?

He couldn't figure it out. He really couldn't figure it out.

After going through all this, he suddenly felt his stomach uncomfortable from the hunger, so he took out the white bun and started to chew.

It looked like he couldn't drink anymore, or else he wouldn't even know if he was killed.

It was dark again, so he did not continue his journey. Instead, he found a square stone that was relatively flat under the cover of a large tree. Once he sat on it, he could still feel some warmth, which made him want to lie down and have a good sleep. However, he couldn't sleep right now, so he felt restless. He really wanted to talk to someone, but Sima Feng wasn't there.

He untied the bundle and placed it on the stone. Seeing the long sword, he took it out and held it in his hand.

He looked around and asked, "Brother Jian, do you think that someone is following us right now?" The red light flashed twice, invisible through the black cloth, but he could still feel it. Phew, "he breathed a sigh of relief," that's good. For the time being, he could relax.

"Say, do you think I'm going straight to Chang'an? I don't know where I should go for now. Do you want to go to Chang'an?"

The red light flashed twice.

"Hmm? You don't want to go? Isn't it good there? Or do you dislike noisy places? "

The red light still flashed twice.

Ah? Why is it so contradictory? Could it be that it, too, was confused like a human being? After thinking about it for a while, he couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Of course you don't care where I go. You can go wherever I go anyway. The most important thing is my decision."

This time there was only a flash of red.

Qi Tianyun laughed again, "Since you don't care, then I don't care. I might as well go there and drink with Elder Brother Sima, I just don't know if this look is too shabby or not, but there's no other way, haha — it's decided." He laid down on the stone with relief. The warmth of the stone had already faded, and it was slightly cold.

The sun rose and set. The sun set and the sun rose. After walking for a few days, he saw the mountain pass before his eyes.

"If I go over there, I should be in a place with other people. When the time comes, I will ask them how I can get there." He sat on the grass and thought, "I'm almost done eating the rations in the left and right provinces. Looks like I'll have to go to the nearby mountains to pick some wild fruits to satisfy my hunger."

He stood up and walked towards the mountain on the left. Because there was no path up the mountain to be found, they could only randomly grope around. Fortunately, the effort was not in vain. He finally found a large bag of bushes. However, if he continued moving forward, he might not have such good luck. At that time, he would just have to bear with it.

He walked down the mountain and continued his journey. After going down the hill for a long time, he finally saw a broad-leaved tree at the bottom of the slope that could be used for shade. He hurriedly ran over.

He leaned back against the trunk, gasping for breath. In that instant, he seemed to see a shadow flash by the top of the hill in front of him. But when he looked over, it was already gone. He was probably mistaken. However, he always felt that he heard someone coming over, even though it was only the sound of the wind and not footsteps. Although he tried to comfort himself over and over again, the feeling made him realize more and more that the figure was not a dazzle. He turned his head to see if he had truly seen wrongly. At this moment, that figure blocked his line of sight.

He was carrying a long sword, and between his brows, he revealed a proud temperament. Looking at her gorgeous clothes, she must be a daughter of a famous family, and moreover, she came from a Aristocratic Family of the Martial Arts Circles background, otherwise, the light arts would not be so good. It seems that it's better not to provoke her.

However, it seemed impossible for her to see clearly. She stood in front of him without saying a word. Not only did she block the light, she even blocked the cool breeze blowing towards her.

Qi Tianyun looked up impatiently and could not help but be shocked: a pair of eyes on his pretty face that could swallow a person whole stared straight at him! He quickly lowered his head, avoiding her gaze and muttered in his heart: "Even if I shouldn't have looked at you, don't you still casually stand in front of an unfamiliar man? It's like I'm at a disadvantage. "

"You!" Just as he was about to sleep here to avoid getting annoyed by the sight, he heard the girl point at his nose and yell, "Despicable bastard!"

"Hmm?" Qi Tianyun sized her up, but he really couldn't see that the girl was actually unreasonable. He shook his head and sighed, "Girl, you must have mistaken me. Have I ever been despicable to you?"

"You —" She was so angry that she couldn't speak for a while. After a while, she humphed angrily, "Hmph! "A few days ago, you injured my father and caused his blood to flow in his chest. After recuperating at home for nearly half a month, he finally recovered. When I heard about this, I really wanted to beat the crap out of you!"

Qi Tianyun wondered, "Your father? Who is your father? Is the girl mistaken? "

She coldly snorted and said, "Stop pretending! "My dad is Alliance Leader of the Martial Arts Circles, who doesn't know him in this world?"

"Oh, it's him?" Qi Tianyun pondered, "Has there been such a thing in the past?" He had once heard his father talk about those people who were blasted off a meteorite for the sake of seizing a sword.

"What?" The girl was furious. "You actually boasted that you had so many people killed? Humph! "With my dad's martial arts skills, no one can hurt him that easily. I'm sure you used some shady method. If I don't tear you into a thousand pieces today, I won't be called Lu Xiaoqing!" Clang! Clang! She drew her sword.

"What did you say?" Hearing that, Qi Tianyun stood up abruptly, "You are Lu Xiaoqing?"

"So what if I am? Do you think I will let you off just because you know me? "In your dreams!" Lu Xiaoqing said loudly.

"Er —" Qi Tianyun thought about how to put it, "Is a young master surnamed Si your lover?"

"Hmm? Who did you hear that from? " Lu Xiaoqing's killing intent was instantly reduced by a bit as she asked in puzzlement.

"Rumor has it that the young master of Sima Family of the martial arts world and the daughter of the Lu family are a match made in heaven." He looked at her face to see if anything had changed.

"Hu Daobao!" Which bastard said that? I will definitely chop him into eight pieces! "

"Ah?!" He had only heard Sima Feng mention his little lover, so he thought that it would be a good change. But he actually forgot that Sima Feng had once mentioned that his little lover was always at odds with him, so he naturally hated it when others compared her to Sima Feng. This time, it was terrible, he had to slap his on the horse, this little girl seemed to be even harder to deal with than her elder brother, and now he was really determined to bury him in the wilderness? It can't be that bad, right?

Lu Xiaoqing, of course, did not know that his headache was taking on an unprecedented level. She saw him continuously scratching her head, but her gaze was fixated on her soft bosom, her eyes widening. She thought that he was attracted by lust and was up to something.

Qi Tianyun hastily retreated away from the attack and ran away. Somehow, looking at her display of power, he didn't even know where he had the courage to fight in the face of danger not long ago. Feeling flustered, he shouted, "Elder Brother Sima, save me!" Recalling what Sima Feng had said, he couldn't help but think that if Sima Feng was here, he would definitely be able to stop her from committing murder. However, he didn't expect that his words were too inappropriate.

Lu Xiaoqing saw that he didn't have any fighting spirit in the face of danger and didn't even seem like someone with a cultivation base.

It seemed that he had guessed right. He must have hurt Father in a disgraceful way.

And at this moment, he was actually doing such a foolish thing like 'distant water cannot quench one's thirst'. In his heart, he felt a bit more contempt for this person.

She shouted, "Despicable, shameless, vulgar scum, die!"

Qi Tianyun didn't have the time to care that he now had such a long list of titles. He kept running up the mountain, specifically picking areas where the forest was lush.

To him, this was not a difficult matter, but to this young miss, it was a difficult task. Not to mention going into the forest, even going to any desolate mountain had to be cut down trees and opened up a path for her to walk on before she was allowed to pass. Now, however, she was deeply aware of the spacious and somewhat cumbersome clothing, the arduous feeling of being constantly hung by tree branches, and secretly complained that she did not change into a light set of clothes when she came out.

Lu Xiaoqing really wanted to leap up and fly into the air, but she was too inexperienced. In this way, she might lose track of her enemy and be unable to find him again. She could only pull up her skirt and continue to follow behind him.

Fortunately, she was able to catch up to him through the light arts.

After a few rounds, it looked as if he would soon be stabbed. Who knew that he would circle around the tree and disappear. She walked over and looked under the tree because it was so full of leaves that she couldn't see the tracks and she didn't know which way he had run. She squatted down and carefully observed her surroundings. Suddenly, she found that there were signs that the leaves had been trampled on. They had extended in one direction. The ground must have been harder, and he had lightly jumped over on his tiptoes. She stood up and sneered, "Let's see where you can run to!"

Qi Tianyun stepped over the fallen leaves on the ground and circled around the tree. From time to time, he would look back and then continue running in circles. In front of him was an open space, but there were more leaves on the ground than there were in other places. He raised his head to look at the big tree and saw that the tree was still full of leaves.

When his left foot came into contact with the densest part of the leaf, he discovered something strange. Just as he was about to jump off the leaf, something soft pulled his body upwards. His entire body was caught. It turned out to be a huge net. It must have been set up here by the hunters to catch the wild beasts, so he didn't want to run into them.

"Damn it!" Even though this place is deserted, there are still hunters here! " He desperately tried to break free, but the more he struggled, the tighter the net tightened. Instead, the thick hemp rope hanging from the tree kept swaying in the air. He had no choice but to stay still and save some energy.

A cool breeze blew and Lu Xiaoqing, who was already under the tree, was overjoyed when she saw this scene. "Haha …" This was called reaping the consequences of her crimes! Since the heavens want you to die, then this lady shall accompany you. " As she spoke, she slowly raised her sword.

"Wait a minute!" Qi Tianyun suddenly shouted, "My hands can't move, my feet can't run, if you kill me, the victory isn't martial!"

"Hmm?" She frowned as she thought about it, then sneered in a soft voice, "Fine, I'll put you down and make you accept your death wholeheartedly." The tip of his foot tiptoed and he slowly jumped up. He turned around and waved his sword above his head. With a flash of silver light, the thick hemp rope snapped. "Putong!" He landed on the ground.

He patted the filth off his body, grabbed the big net and threw it far away, but he didn't look like he was preparing for a fight. Instead, he lowered his head and walked around while poking at the leaves on the ground.

Seeing that he was about to die, Lu Xiaoqing became extremely angry and said, "What are you waiting for!? I am already merciful enough to you, do not even think of testing my patience, otherwise I will let you have a taste of my sufferings! "

Qi Tianyun said slowly, "So you guys are so ruthless when it comes to killing people. I was just thinking about what kind of weapon I could use to fight you. What's the rush?" He fiddled with the leaves.

Lu Xiaoqing snorted and said, "Stop pretending, the strange thing on your back isn't a weapon?"

Qi Tianyun shook his head and said, "Ah, the one on my back is just a thick cane, and it will be cut by your sword all of a sudden. Otherwise, if I borrow your sword for a bit, I'll slice a wooden staff and use two pieces to fight you. This way, I won't suffer a loss.

"What?!" "You actually want to bargain? Take your mourning stick and eat my sword!"

"Sigh!" "What are you being so fierce for? I'll fight with you right now, just you wait!" As he spoke, he turned around, squatted down, and fished around for his bag. He muttered to himself, "Don't be in such a hurry, he'll be shy too."

She said in a daze, "What?"

Qi Tianyun said slowly: "My weapon! I wrapped it up in such a thick cloth, and without even taking off my clothes, of course I would be shy. " Lu Xiaoqing only thought that his words were lame, incoherent, and unintelligible, but she had already taken him for a vile and despicable person, and now she could not help but think that he was talking about some village gossip, and that she was so blatant that she wanted to stab him to death, but she remembered that she had already agreed to wait for him to take out her weapon to fight again, and her anger began to skyrocket, so she shouted, "Take this!" She immediately attacked.

At this moment, Qi Tianyun suddenly turned around and raised the hem of his clothes. A large mass of dead leaves flew up in the air and completely enveloped her body.

It turned out that Qi Tianyun kept poking at the fallen leaves and was trying to divert her attention so that she could find time to set up this mediocre hidden weapon.

When the leaves were dancing in the air, Lu Xiaoqing moved her sword to protect her body and kept backing off, just in case he took the opportunity to use her concealed weapon. When the leaves fell to the ground, Qi Tianyun had disappeared again.

"Ya!" Lu Xiaoqing vented all of her anger as she used her light arts's Ouroboros Clan to give chase. The wind rustled, and his feet felt as light as if they were stepping on clouds.

This time, tracking was a lot easier. There were a series of heavy footprints on the ground, twisting and turning between the trees. Qi Tianyun could already be seen by the time he reached a sunny area covered by grass.

Lu Xiaoqing had already learned her lesson. She didn't immediately rush forward, but flipped a few somersault rounds in a calm manner, and when she arrived behind him, she fiercely stabbed downwards from the air.

When he felt the cold sword Qi that was about to pierce his skin, he could no longer dodge. At that moment, he felt as if his breathing had stopped. Forget it, forget it. It seems I won't be able to escape this calamity.

Just as she was about to accept her fate, she heard a shout from behind her. Turning her head around, Lu Xiaoqing stumbled and fell backwards. The longsword in her hand also fell to the ground.

Qi Tianyun originally wanted to take the opportunity to escape. If he didn't leave now, then when? He had only taken two steps when he stopped again. He heard Lu Xiaoqing's faint moans and could no longer move her legs. In this moment of calmness, he realized that she must have touched the sword Qi on his back just now. However, her power was much weaker than her father's, and she was also much weaker than Sima Feng.

Sigh! He had actually forgotten the existence of the heavy sword on his back.

He sighed and walked over to her. She was also someone who valued filial piety, so she shouldn't have lost her life here. He stood there in a daze, unable to think of any way to save her. For some reason, he subconsciously took out the "thick staff" from his bag, raised it up and looked, there seemed to be a red light flashing for a long time, perhaps wanting to tell him something, but even after being its master for a while, he still didn't understand. He shook his head, weakly dropped the heavy sword, exhaled a breath of air, and returned it to his back.

Lu Xiaoqing was in a daze, her eyes half opened as she saw Qi Tianyun standing in front of her with a mourning stick in his hand. Lu Xiaoqing was in a daze, half opened her eyes as she saw Qi Tianyun standing in front of her with a mourning stick in his hand, as she felt her heart tremble. She really wanted to open her eyes, but the more she thought about it, the more she couldn't help but want to close her eyes and rest. She was truly very tired. The sword in his hand finally fell to the ground.

However, she didn't feel the pain before she died, even if it was just for an instant. Could it be that he poisoned her with a poison that didn't contain any pain before she died? Afterwards, she felt a warm and strange energy flowing through her body. Could it be that her father had come? Father! Father! Father …

When the flowing energy gradually dissipated, her body regained its vitality. Her eyes finally opened, and she jumped up. It was already night, and the birds had returned to their nests. Other than the chirping of insects, there was also the low growl of a wild beast from far away.

She picked up her sword and scabbard and was about to sheathe her sword when the sound of footsteps came from the woods and became clearer. She gripped her sword, her eyes fixed on the sound, her ears straining to hear the footsteps. What was that guy trying to do now?

The sound could be clearly heard now without the need to listen. The sound of footsteps was mixed with a vague hum. Humph! What are you so proud of? Let's see how you can still laugh later!

She was hidden in the shadows behind a tree, and the moonlight revealed the figure of the man in the silver glow.

"Haha!" "Stop hiding, I know where you are!" the man suddenly said.

Hm? He knows where I am, hmph! Even so, I will still kill you! However, why did the voice change? Never mind that! The sword in her hand gestured in various positions.

"Junior Sister!" Stop hiding. Play this game of hide and seek. When are you going to beat me? " The voice was deep.

"Ah!" Lu Xiaoqing was surprised and delighted as she ran over, "Senior Brother, is it really you? Why are you here? My ears are so stupid, why didn't I hear it?

"Why am I here? Of course it's to find a naughty 'little female monkey' like you who came and left without saying a word. "He was Alliance Leader Lu's eldest disciple, a middle-aged man with a wisp of beard and gentle eyes. He loved his junior sister dearly and was here on Alliance Leader Lu's orders to protect her in the dark.

"Senior Brother, I thought you were the bad guy. I'm sorry —" Is this game? Great, there's food tonight! Ouch! I'm really a little hungry now! "

The Senior Brother raised the two geese in his hands and laughed, "You want to eat it? It's still early! Quickly find some branches and dead leaves to start a fire! "

"Oh, got it!" Lu Xiaoqing obediently left.

In the light of the fire, Lu Xiaoqing kept swallowing her saliva as she smelled the fragrance. Suddenly, she thought of a question. "Senior Brother, you didn't see that despicable person again?"

"Eh —" The Senior Martial Brother paused before saying, "I saw that youth. I saw that he almost wanted to kill you, so I shot a hidden weapon at him. He hastily dodged it, then turned around and ran away." He said it lightly.

"Oh? "So that's how it is. No wonder I didn't die." She only lowered her head to look at the bird meat that was about to be cooked and did not look at her senior brother. Even if she did, she would not be able to see the complicated expression on his face under the not too bright light.

Before he came out to look for Lu Xiaoqing, Alliance Leader Lu had already instructed Lu Xiaoqing to help him secretly and not to show off himself. He meant that he was afraid that Lu Xiaoqing would not be able to defeat him. When he heard this order, he was quite cautious. However, when he saw his junior apprentice sister and that young man fighting, he was greatly surprised.

In the beginning, the Junior Sister had always been in an advantageous position, but that youth was basically in a passive position. In the beginning, the Junior Sister had always been in an advantageous position, but that youth was almost completely in a passive position. But before he threw the leaf

At that moment, he truly believed that the person in front of him was just a young man in a market. He must have been pulling some sort of trick to be able to harm his master.

However, everything was out of his expectations when he saw Lu Xiaoqing's sword stab towards him, something that he couldn't help but admire.

Lu Xiaoqing was pushed to the ground by the force of the impact. There was no chance for her to resist. Only then did the young man stop running and turn around. The senior brother thought to himself that this power was probably what he was ashamed of, because it was not caused by the palm power, but was purely the body's natural resistance.

The Senior Martial Brother heard him sigh as he walked over. Could it be that all this time, he didn't want to take her life, but now, he finally couldn't endure it any longer? His Senior Brother watched from a tree not far away, helplessly taking out a concealed weapon from his bosom, carefully on guard. Watching him walk over, drawing out an unknown weapon from his back, his heart became anxious, as he was waving his weapon, the concealed weapon almost came out.

The reason why he didn't send it out was because his Senior Martial Brother clearly saw that he wasn't trying to kill his Junior Martial Sister. He only took out his weapon and waved it around her body. He didn't even touch her body before he put away his weapon and left.

He reached out his hand to check her breath, and then he took her pulse. He found that her breathing was steady, and not only did her pulse not show any signs of weakness, but instead, there was a very strong internal breath circulating around her meridians, helping her to recover from her injuries. Could it be that just now, he had sent such a strong internal force to her after bluffing towards her? Even if he wanted to treat his Junior Sister's injuries, it would not be so easy. He would need to at least train for a while to resolve them, and also have to deal with them according to the severity of his injuries.

With his level of martial arts, how could he possibly avoid it and then treat the enemy in the end? Could it be that when he heard his junior sister say she wanted to kill him, he showed mercy? Otherwise, would he treat her as his rival? He wanted to hide his identity for some unknown purpose, but his senior brother did not believe that he was trying to stir up trouble in the martial arts world. If that happened, he would definitely remove all obstacles in his way to ensure his success.

"Senior apprentice-brother!" Lu Xiaoqing's shout woke him up. "It's already done roasting, you can eat it now, right? "If you keep roasting it, it will be burnt." As he spoke, he took a piece from his hand and began to eat, "I'm really starving! Humph! Senior Brother, if we meet that despicable person again, we'll work together to fight him. I don't believe that I can't beat him! "

"We'll talk about it next time. If this happens, how could Master let you go out and wander around by yourself so easily? If I didn't appear in time, do you think you'd be able to go back alive? You always like to make people worry about you, I think I really need to find someone to teach you how to knit a woman's red, how to play zither, how to draw calligraphy, and painting …" The Senior Martial Brother wanted to continue but was interrupted by Lu Xiaoqing, "You're here again. You know I don't like you, but I was born a man in my previous life and was born a woman."

The Senior Martial Brother frowned, "Nonsense, you always use these words to cover people's mouths. Girls have to be married off after all." Sigh! Do you really hate Young Master Sima that much? Didn't he treat you well? They say that you two are a match made in heaven, and you still want to cut them into pieces? " Seeing Lu Xiaoqing pouting, Lu Xiaoqing tactfully shut her mouth.

"Come back with me tomorrow." The Senior Martial Brother ignored the protesting expression on her face and said, "If you don't want to go back, then I'll take you back."
