Bingrong's body was dragged out of the cold pool, and Lu Jianjian stabbed her heart into her heart. The red color of the sword fire quickly overshadowed the color of her clothes.
She who was supposed to die in the fire still died in the fire.
Ning Jiujiu woke up very quickly. The injuries on his back were fatal to ordinary people, but he healed most of them by himself with the physical strength of a practitioner.
"Water." When Ning Jiujiu woke up, he felt that his lips were very dry. He shouted subconsciously, and then found that he was not thirsty.
Lu Marian was sitting on the side with her clothes fully clothed. She had a cold appearance, her soaked body had been burned dry by sword fire, but her eyes were still filled with a faint breath of fresh air.
Lu married him and scooped out a bowl of water.
"How do you feel?" Ning Jiujiu straightened up, curled up one leg, and rested his half-bent hand on his knee. He took a sip of water, moistened his dry lips, and asked.
Lu Marion nodded and said, "As you said, the sword body has improved even further."
Ning Jiujiu asked: "Can you see the limit?"
Lu Marry shook her head.
Ning Jiujiu raised his head and suddenly discovered that there were faint blood stains on Lu Marian's lips, which seemed to be bite marks. He didn't think much about it and just thought it was the injury from the previous assassination.
"What time is it?" Ning Changjiu asked.
Lu Marian pursed her lips and replied calmly: "It's Yin time."
"Yes." Ning Jiujiu lowered his head and thought for a while, then said, "There are people hiding in Tianku Peak."
Lu Marry had thought of this before, but she just shook her head and said: "The person who can enter the cold prison, cut off the chains for Bingrong, and grant the realm... This person is at least the Ziting realm. Where can such a person come from Tianku Peak?"
"Yan Zhou." Ning Jiujiu said this suspicious name.
Lu Marry disagreed: "Uncle Yan Zhou swore to imprison himself in the Book Pavilion, and he would not leave until he found the Heavenly Book. He has been very peaceful for decades, how could he do such a thing?"
"He released Yan Feng." Ning Jiujiu said.
Lu Married said: "Brotherhood is a reason, but Master Yan Zhou knows the general situation and will never want to kill me because of this matter. Otherwise, with his temperament, he would not be willing to imprison himself in the bookstore." .”
Ning Jiujiu said: "As long as there is no second Ziting realm in the peak, he is the most suspicious."
Lu Marion neither approves nor objects.
Ning Jiujiu asked again: "Has there been any result from the investigation into the Hidden Peak rebellion that day?"
Lu Marry said: "The people who started the civil strife that day are more powerful than those who supported me. If it weren't for you, the rest of them might have been killed before I came up."
Ning Jiujiu said: "Zi Tian Dao Sect also participated."
Lu Marian nodded and said: "Yujian Tianzong and Zitian Daomen have always been at odds, but they have never come to the point of life and death. This time... it is indeed abnormal."
"That sacred instrument for summoning souls?" Ning Changjiu asked.
"I have never heard of it since I took over as the peak master. Maybe he just wants to incriminate himself."
"Yan Zhou is dying. He may need this sacred artifact."
"You still doubt him?"
"What if it's really him?"
"Then we can only wait until the sect leader comes back before making a decision."
Then, they fell silent together, and they thought at the same time that the sect leader's wandering might be the opportunity for them to initiate this change.
Ning hesitated for a while, then said frankly: "I learned a sword technique from Yan Zhou."
"What sword technique?" Lu Married asked, and then she remembered the murderous sword used by Ning Jiujiu. She witnessed that sword technique tonight. It seemed ordinary, but in the blink of an eye, the sword was sent away in an incredible manner. It enters the enemy's throat and kills him with one blow.
She didn't like this kind of swordsmanship. Not only was it not beautiful, but it seemed to be evil.
"Is that the swordsmanship that Uncle Yan Zhou taught you?" Lu Marian asked curiously.
Ning Changjiu said: "The sword stand that Yan Zhou set up in his sleep, I gained insights between life and death, and understood this sword."
Lu Marion continued to ask: "What are the characteristics of this swordsmanship?"
Ning Jiujiu said without hesitation: "It is suitable for killing people."
All swordsmanship in the world is good at killing people, but in the first half of the Tianyu Sword Classic, all the swordsmanship has a beautiful name, and the swordsmanship also has a graceful or majestic beauty. This kind of swordsmanship is different. The purpose of its existence is only to kill people.
Lu Marry recalled the sword that Ning used to kill Bingrong for a long time. She took the sword and wanted to reproduce the sword move, but she couldn't find the method.
After trying it twice, she shook her head and gave up, saying: "This sword move has nothing to do with the sword skills of the Yujian Tianzong."
"Where did Yan Zhou learn it?" Ning Changjiu asked.
Lu Marry didn't know the answer, so she just said, "I will keep an eye on him in the future."
Ning Jiujiu remembered something and asked, "Did you go down to the bottom of Hidden Peak that day?"
Lu Marion replied: "No, when the rope broke, I was still some distance from the bottom of the peak."
Ning Jiujiu was puzzled again: "Why do they think they can kill you by cutting off the rope?"
Lu Marry said: "Maybe they think there is no way out at the bottom of the peak?"
Ning Jiujiu shook his head and said, "But I'm out... Besides, even if you climb up the Dragon Winding Pillar, you can always come out."
Lu Marian felt a chill in her heart and asked, "Could it be that there is something waiting for me at the bottom of the peak?"
Ning Jiujiu shook his head: "I don't know, I can't remember it either."
Lu Marian sighed. What happened recently was like wind blowing in the wind. She vaguely felt that a storm was coming, but she was not sure what these dark clouds meant.
And tonight's events will pass quickly. Bingrong's death will not even cause any waves, and the black shadow in the cold prison will never become three-dimensional.
"Wushenyue is coming." Lu Jianjian said suddenly: "You and Ning Xiaoling can be a group at that time. The place you go to is determined by drawing a brand. There are only so many areas under the jurisdiction of Yujian Tianzong, so there is no need to go Extraneous branches arise.”
Ning Changjiu was not very interested in Wushenyue killing ghosts, and just asked: "Wushenyue is there every year?"
Lu Marion nodded and said: "Of course, it has been since the founding of Yujian Tianzong."
Ning Jiujiu asked: "What's the origin?"
"The origin? God created the world tomorrow, and the laws are also determined by heaven. What's the origin?" Lu Jiaojie has never thought about this.
Ning Jiujiu couldn't help but think of the divine bone in Nanhuang. An extremely absurd idea flashed through his mind that even he couldn't believe—could that divine bone also be the Lord of the Kingdom of God during his lifetime
…
…
The days before the arrival of the Godless Moon were brief and calm, without any disturbance.
After Bingrong died, the master who gave her cultivation seemed to have left Tianku Peak. The aura of Tianku Peak could no longer compete with the other three peaks, and became increasingly thinner. This had a great impact on the disciples' practice. Troubled.
And Lu Marry is the hope of everyone in Tianku Peak. Only if she can step into the Purple Court and reach a higher place than other peak masters can she change the current situation.
Therefore, Yazhu and the other elders who came out of seclusion would take care of all the subsequent courses. Lu Jiaotou then lived in the peak master's hall and concentrated on practicing.
Ning Jiujiu continued to refine Lu Yuai's body as usual. After that, Lu Yuanwen did not hide anything and lifted the gauze on her back so that the light of the Golden Crow could better penetrate into her back.
In order to avoid being assassinated again, Ning Jiujiu also secretly drew a small flying formation in the peak master's palace.
This plan was soon discovered by Lu Marian. Although she complained, she did not brush it off.
After that, Ning Changjiu secretly went to the bookstore to see Yan Zhou several times at night, but never saw him perform that kind of swordsmanship. Later he learned that he had never really slept since Yan Feng's death.
The one who is most looking forward to Wu Shenyue is Ning Xiaoling.
After class every day, she and Ning Jiujiu counted the dates with their fingers, as if they regarded this ghost festival as an opportunity to travel around the mountains and rivers. Sometimes she would dance her fingers with joy, imagining that after slaying demons and slaying demons, she would be honored as She looks like a heroine or a little sword fairy.
Two days before Wu Shen Yue arrived, there was a twists and turns in the peak.
The peach curtain was opened by outsiders.
A Taoist priest in Xuanzi Xingyi came to Yujian Tianzong. As soon as he arrived, the Shouxiaofeng Sword Formation closest to Taolian unfolded, and thousands of flying swords were directed at the intruder.
The purple-clothed Taoist smiled slightly, bowed humbly, held out a volume of letters, and said: "Junior brother Qiyi is destined to die here. Today I am here to deliver a letter of war to the sect master."
Although the other three peaks had heard about the shocking changes in Tianku Peak, the news did not spread much because the matter was handled too quickly.
Today, someone suddenly came to Zitian Dao Sect, and the other peaks had different thoughts.
"What's the matter? Just leave it to me."
The first thing that fell in front of the peak was a shadow, which was the projection of the peak master of Shouxiao Peak. Now that the master is no longer in Huanpu Mountain, the peak master of Shouxiao Peak is the recognized leader, and it is certain that he will become the next peak master. It's over.
The purple-clothed Taoist saluted the phantom. He did not feel slighted. He still had a smile on his face and said: "This matter has nothing to do with Shouxiao Peak. The sect master personally ordered that this letter of war be handed over." To the peak master of Tianku Peak, Lu Marry."
The Lord of Shouxiao Peak had heard about the shocking changes in Tianku Peak and said coldly: "Zitian Dao Sect took the initiative to stir up trouble and attempted to assassinate the peak master of our sect. We haven't come to ask for justice, but you dare to take the initiative to provoke? Why does Zitian Dao Sect take the initiative? Are you so majestic now?"
Taoist Shan in purple said with a smile: "I heard that Master Hanchi traveled far away. I don't know when he will return?"
The Lord of Shouxiao Peak said in a colder voice: "You have entered our sect's territory without permission. Do you think I dare not kill you?"
The purple-clothed Taoist hurriedly smiled and begged for mercy: "Please forgive me, the future sect leader. Today, the sect leader ordered me to come here with a sincere attitude. The letter of war is also open and aboveboard. Whether the peak lord of Tianku Peak accepts it or not, we will not accept it." We will not force interference.”
The Lord of Shouxiao Peak asked: "Who is on the other end of the war letter?"
The purple-clothed Taoist said: "Peak master, don't be nervous. Our sect master will never bully others with his power. The one who will confront Master Lu Peak will be one of the four masters of the Zitian Dao Sect, Shi Shiyi. According to their status in their sect, It should be on the same level.”
The first master of Zitian Dao Sect and the four masters are indeed similar to Lu Jianwen in terms of status, but Shi Shiyi is over a hundred years old, has been famous for a long time, and his realm is unfathomable. Who is higher or lower than the master of Zitian Dao Sect? No conclusion yet.
And that Taoist Master Shi Shiyi has not shown up for decades, never thought that he would go out for a junior today
And Lu Marian has only been practicing Taoism for twenty years and has not even entered the Ziting realm. How can she be his opponent
The Lord of Shouxiao Peak said: "It's unreasonable."
The purple-clothed Taoist refused to give up: "Whether you can handle it or not depends on Master Lu's decision."
In front of the Taoist, the chief of Shouxiao Peak was dancing. Even if it was just a shadow, the murderous intention was already rising. If the sect master hadn't traveled far away now, he would have directly reversed the reality and revealed his true body here to kill this Taoist lackey.
And today he has no intention of giving in. When the sect leader was there, the Yujian Tianzong was able to overwhelm the Taoist sect by a dozen. And he is the future sect leader. Although he has not yet reached the peak of Ziting, how can he show weakness
The purple-clothed Taoist's expression was slightly stern, and his body suddenly floated back. In front of him, the figure of Lord Shouxiao Peak was shining brightly, as if it was about to turn emptiness into reality.
"If we don't kill the envoys during the sect war, could it be that the peak master wants to make the entire Taoist sect an enemy?" The Taoist didn't smile, he was already showing his dagger.
When the sword was at war, a sword intent rose from the top of Tianku Peak. The flying sword passed through the palm of the purple-robed Taoist like a needle. After the tip of the sword picked up the letter, the flying sword turned into a stream of light and returned to the direction of Tianku Peak. At the same time, At the same time, a young woman's clear and pure voice blew around the four peaks like a thin cold spring breeze:
"I have accepted the letter and will be waiting for you at any time."
Lu Marion's voice was as quiet and high as the sword star hanging in the sky. When he took away the Taoist's letter of war, the overflowing sword energy made his Taoist heart tremble slightly.
The realm of Peak Master Lu seemed to be higher than he imagined.
But he didn't take it to heart.
As if he was afraid that Lu Marry would regret it, the purple-clothed Taoist smiled and said, "Master Lu Feng is indeed very charming."
While he was smiling, the peach curtain behind him floated up, revealing a few lavender stars in the air. It was a method similar to the small flying formation. His figure fell backwards, and when he was about to leave, the Lord of Shouxiao Peak snorted coldly. With a sound, a sword was struck. The Taoist was hit by the sword before he left. He grunted in pain, but laughed loudly and said, "I'll see you someday, gentlemen."
…
Lu Maroui and Ning Ning had read this letter of war for a long time. The contents of the letter were quite satisfactory. The biggest problem was that there was no date.
"This is not a declaration of war. He just wanted to give himself a logical reason to kill." Ning Jiujiu said.
Lu Marion should not have accepted this unreasonable letter of challenge, but she was the master of a peak after all. Moreover, she will never rise to the top easily before entering the Purple Court. And when she enters the Purple Court, the famous Shi Yi may not be her opponent. In a sense, this is another battle between light and darkness. of swap.
Lu Marry said proudly: "Whether the sect leader is present or not, Yujian Tianzong will never let others bully him."
Ning Jiujiu thought more: "Although the war letter has no date, I believe that they have chosen the time to take action. You must be careful."
Lu Marry frowned and said: "I can't get out of the Cultivation Peak, how are they going to kill me? Unless... that Fourteenth-Yi Yi has already sneaked into Tianku Peak?"
Qiyi can sneak in, and it is of course possible for the Fourteenth Yi with higher cultivation level.
At the same time, they thought of the mysterious man who might exist in the peak. Bingrong's assassination was still vivid in their minds, and they could not allow them to take it lightly.
Ning Jiujiu felt uneasy and said, "How about I move here?"
Lu Marian's expression didn't change, but she didn't know what she was thinking in her heart. She said coldly: "No need, your current level can't deal with Shi Shiyi."
Ning Jiujiu smiled and said: "Who is it that thinks my level is low now and can't bear to beg for mercy at night?"
I'm talking about the body training these days.
Without the barrier of outer clothes, even if Lu Jianjian was firm, it was often unbearable. She remembered her appearance when she was weak, raised her cold eyes slightly, and covered Ning Jiujiu's lips with a layer of frost with her sword energy. as punishment.
This endless letter of challenge was temporarily put aside. Two days later, Wushen Month finally arrived.
In a realm that mortals cannot detect, Kong Lie's Kingdom of God has closed its door. One month later, Sin King's Kingdom will open and guard the human world for the next year.
Mortals cannot notice the departure of the gods, but the overwhelming thunder blows away, the white clouds turn into rain, and all things spread. The ghosts and evil things in the world are like new grass that has been removed from the stone. After losing resistance, it begins to grow like crazy.
Most of them will die in the next year, but a small number are still able to practice secretly and grow into independent evil demons.
At the beginning of April, Yujian Tianzong held a ceremony, allowing the young disciples to divide themselves into ten teams, draw regional wooden signs, and determine the areas they would each protect.
Each of them will also get a wooden tube. In times of crisis, they can light the wooden tube with sword fire. The kendama hidden in it are all jade pairs. If one end is broken, the other end hidden in the main hall of the peak will also be broken. In the hall After being sensed, you can immediately rush to the rescue of disciples who are in danger.
Ning Xiaoling went to draw the sign. She was a little disappointed when she got the sign. She originally wanted to go to her hometown to kill mountain ghosts.
She handed the wooden sign to Ning Changjiu.
Ning took a long look and saw the name of a town he had never heard of before: "Liantian Town."
"It's a small place." Ning Xiaoling was a little frustrated, complaining that she was unlucky.
Ning Changjiu comforted him and said, "A small place has its advantages. Is it possible that you want to come to Linhe City again for a month?"
"I don't want to do it anymore because I'm afraid that my senior brother will be beaten for another month because he is so mean." Ning Xiaoling held her face in her hands, but her face was still full of displeasure.
Ning sighed for a long time, thinking that his junior sister was becoming more and more lawless, but he still couldn't beat or scold her.
Ning Xiaoling grabbed the wooden sign and kept sighing. This was her first serious experience in slaying demons after practicing Taoism. Of course, she would have to meet some powerful opponents to match her superb swordsmanship. ah.
Before going down the mountain, Ning Jiujiu secretly met Lu Jiaojian again.
He finished the last training session for Lu Yuanjie, gave her instructions on some cultivation matters, and asked her to help take care of some of his disciples Ding Leshi. Although he didn't pay much attention to this disciple himself, after all, he would be there in a year. Ning Jiujiang did not want to lose easily in a fair fight with Zhao Xiang'er's apprentice Yan Shi.
What Ning Changjiu is most worried about is whether he will encounter trouble from the Zitian Dao Sect on the road.
Lu Marry advised him not to worry too much. Although the sect master traveled, he would always come back. The Zitian Taoist Sect would never dare to do anything too extreme, not to mention that they were a well-known and decent sect. Even if they used underhanded deeds against young disciples, for The strength of the two sects has no impact, and it is a thankless task.
After looking at the map, Ning Jiujiu found that the directions of Liantian Town and Linhe were surprisingly consistent. They were both north of Yujian Tianzong, while Zhao State was northwest of Tianzong, not the same as that remote town. Far.
On the way to Liantian Town, Ning Changjiu and Ning Xiaoling asked several times. The woodcutters in many villages were very enthusiastic when they saw their costumes. Many women quickly brought their children and asked the immortal master to help them. Bless.
Ning Jiujiu injected a weak spiritual energy into each of them, which could ward off many illnesses.
There was a blind woman who was half a hundred years old. She led her blind and mute child to seek treatment from an immortal master. Ning Jiujiu and Ning Xiaoling looked at each other, unable to do anything.
But Ning couldn't resist his mother's disappointed look for a long time, so he used the surrounding villages as a model and turned it into a concrete image and sketched it in his consciousness. Although it only lasted a few breaths, it still made the little boy happy. He danced and remembered this scene forever until he died of a serious illness a few years later.
With the woman's endless gratitude, they said goodbye and left. After passing a few villages and houses, the archway of Liantian Town finally appeared in front of them among a series of adobe houses.
The earthen wall was not high. When they arrived, there happened to be a clever and cunning black cat walking along the edge of the wall with its body lowered. When they entered the town, they heard the sound of banging.
