Pei Jing said: "But now Shu Yan is dead, where can you investigate?"
Yu Qinglian said: "I didn't get anything from him, but in that underground world, I vaguely sensed an extremely mysterious and powerful force - you should also have sensed it."
Pei Jing nodded: "I heard some information from the conversation between Shu Yan and Chu Junyu. There is someone behind Shu Yan."
Yu Qinglian frowned, "Sure enough, giving him the power to shake the world and an immortal body, is there really such a powerful person in the world?"
Her doubts were the same as Pei Jing's. When they were young, they were trained in Jingtian Academy, and the people they met were all the strongest people in the world. Their understanding of strength and power was already unusual. Now, this experience has refreshed their concepts.
Cultivators, who fight against heaven and earth, have the original intention of achieving immortality. And Zhang Qingshu's immortal body, in a sense, is also a kind of eternal life.
Pei Jing seemed to be thinking about something, and suddenly asked, "I remember you told me that your mother asked you to go to Jingtianyuan after you formed your infant. Is it about the ladder to heaven?"
Yu Qinglian was slightly stunned and nodded: "That's what happened."
Pei Jing said: "I once came into contact with a monster called Thousand Faces Woman. She gave me a very similar feeling to Shu Yan, and according to Ji Wuduan, she came from Tianyan City. Do you think it is possible that a demon from Tianyan City is about to be born and intend to destroy the world?"
Yu Qinglian: "Demon?"
Pei Jing: "Tianyan City has always been a gathering place for desperate criminals in the cultivation world. Who can say for sure what happened in the city?" He looked far away and used his imagination: "Maybe Qianmiannu and Shuyan are his subordinates."
Yu Qinglian pulled the corner of her mouth: "Then what?"
Pei Jing: "Then it will be up to us to save the world."
Her originally solemn mood disappeared in an instant, and she felt angry and amused at the same time: "My savior is awesome. But before you save the world, would you like to make a little progress first, such as breaking through the Nascent Soul stage?"
Pei Jing also laughed: "That's really a small point."
As the two walked down the stairs, Yu Qinglian remembered something, looked back, and said, "Chu Junyu should be awake, do you want to go check on him?"
Pei Jing was stunned: "It seems so."
Yu Qinglian said: "You can ask him about his background. I always feel that he is dangerous."
Pei Jing lowered his eyes and thought for a while: "When he first entered the Yunxiao Suspension Bridge test, I had a big prejudice against him. I always thought he was too murderous and dangerous. But now I think he should be a good person."
Yu Qinglian held onto the stairs and looked at him deeply.
Pei Jing was a little confused by her look.
After a long while, Yu Qinglian said, "That's fine. It's not a loss if it's a failure."
Pei Jing: “…”
After opening the door, Chu Junyu probably expected him to come. The moment the door creaked, he turned his head and looked over. The two were still young, but when their eyes met, Pei Jing was choked for a moment - the question in his mouth was entangled between "How are you?" and "Who are you?"
Finally, looking at the familiar cold expression of the young man in the distance, Pei Jing simply shut up and stopped talking.
He just realized now that Chu Junyu might have known his identity a long time ago. He actually said in front of him that he hated Pei Yuzhi... It seems that he really hated him.
However, if it was really annoying, why did Fenglinjian help each other, why did Zhonglian Village rescue each other... ... It's really annoying.
Chu Junyu was also waiting for him to speak. The boy was probably really injured. His face was pale, his lips were bloodless, and his pupils were very light, making him look even weaker.
This house is in the deep forest. In the early morning, it is surrounded by clouds and mist, and the light and shadows are gentle.
Pei Jing walked forward and sat down beside his bed. Since Pei Yuzhi's identity had already been exposed, he was too embarrassed to continue playing tricks - he had a serious face, silently repeating to himself that he was the next leader of Yunxiao, and had to put on a cold and arrogant attitude to face him.
But then he thought again, in the secret realm and in the maple forest, he seemed to have no airs in front of Chu Junyu. Besides, wouldn't it be a death wish to compete with Chu Junyu? So he collapsed again in an instant. He picked up an apple from the table and took a bite to moisten his throat and build up his courage.
Chu Junyu just watched his every move in silence.
Pei Jing swallowed the food in his mouth, then said seriously: "Do you have any other purpose in entering my Yunxiao?"
Chu Junyu looked at him as if he were a fool and said calmly, "I saved you, why didn't you ask me about my injury first?"
Pei Jing followed suit: "... ... How are you injured?"
Chu Junyu: "Not much."
Pei Jing was shocked: "Ah? Are you really seriously injured?" He bit the apple in his mouth, stretched out his hand, and was about to take Chu Junyu's pulse.
Chu Junyu did not resist and lowered his eyes.
"Are you really injured?"
Pei Jing still found it hard to believe. He actually didn't know how to take a pulse, he was just trying to detect spiritual power.
The young man in brown suddenly approached, bringing with him a scent like green grass and first snow, distant and familiar, yet engraved in one’s bones.
Chu Junyu lowered his head, his black hair fell down, making his face look paler, his eyes were silent and profound, his emotions hidden deep inside.
He thought of the night he was trapped in the well after going in and out of the clouds. Under his feet was the narrow and gloomy mud. When he looked up, he saw the boy's clean and pure smile against the moonlight. He pulled him into the well with malicious intent, but the boy hugged him in the air, covered his eyes, and told him not to be afraid.
I have always been this nosy, and I treat everyone the same.
Pei Jing was a little embarrassed now. He could not even detect a trace of spiritual power flowing in Chu Junyu's body! He pressed for a long time but got nothing! ... ... Blame it on his low cultivation level.
Chu Junyu looked at Pei Jing's hand on his wrist, awkwardly not knowing whether to take it back. He didn't make things difficult for him and said calmly, "Take me in for a month."
Pei Jing: “Ah?”
Chu Junyu said: "I am now like a useless person. I need to recuperate in Yunxiao for a month."
"Is it okay? Master?"
He called him the master.
Master Yunxiao's eyes widened: "So serious?"
Chu Junyu smiled and said, "Yes, you are very kind, aren't you? I was injured because of saving you, how do you treat me?"
Pei Jing frowned and said seriously: "I will try my best to help you recover from your injuries, and I will keep you safe in Yunxiao."
"We will go back tomorrow. You should have a good rest first."
Wait for Pei Jing to leave and close the door.
After a long time, Chu Junyu suddenly smiled. The light from the window fell on his face, his eyelashes were like wings, and his expression could not be seen clearly.
His voice was very low, like a sigh: "Fool, you can't even protect yourself."
Yu Qinglian received the message from Yingzhou, and Pei Jing also received the message from Chen Xu.
Initially, in order to investigate Shu Yan's affairs, he let go of the man-eating demon who was causing chaos near Yunxiao at that time. However, he didn't expect that during the few months when he was away, the demon became more and more arrogant, and more and more monks were disemboweled and died tragically.
The heads of all the sects, big and small, near Yunxiao had even come to Yunxiao to ask for help. They crowded under the Tianqian Peak, waiting for him to go back and deal with it.
But Chen Xu's last sentence was what frightened him.
At the Zhongnan Peak, at the very edge of Yunxiao, there were also disciples who were killed.
