There was no light in the corridor, and the smell of blood filled the air, irritating the nasal cavity.
The golden crow circulated in Ning Jiujiu's body, melting the frost between his brows.
He put on Lu Married's clothes and stood up.
The clothes still carry the faint fragrance of snow cherry blossoms.
And Lu Yueyou has fallen into a deep sleep. Her body has lost its temperature, her skin is as pale as paper, her scattered black hair appears clearly in the crystal coffin-like cocoon, and her quiet face seems to be able to be kissed awake.
Ning hugged the cocoon for a long time.
"Thank you." Lu Yuanbai leaned against the wall and stretched out his blood-free left hand.
Ning Jiujiu also extended his hand.
In the darkness, a pair of hands shook each other, and Ning Jiujiu used force to pull Lu Yuanbai up from the wall.
After Lu Yuanbai stood at attention, he supported the wall with one hand and held the sword in the other. After all, he was a great practitioner in the first stage of Ziting. He only took a few breaths and his body recovered a lot.
"I didn't expect Uncle Lu to be so secretive." Ning Jiujiu said sincerely.
Lu Yuanbai rubbed his forehead and said with an embarrassed smile: "Don't all masters like to hide their clumsiness? Uncle Lu has been pretending to be a master for several years. It's a pity that he was almost killed by this old guy in the end. It's better to Brother Ning, he hides himself deeper than Uncle Master."
Ning Jiujiu shook his head seriously and said: "I have never hidden my clumsiness, it's just that you have never asked about my realm."
"You can really pretend." Lu Yuanbai was stunned, cursed in a low voice, and then asked: "Then what state are you in now?"
Ning Jiujiu touched the position of his Qi Sea. After several months of practice and diligence, the spiritual power of his Qi Sea was getting closer to the dividing line.
Ning Jiujiu said uncertainly: "According to you, it should be the longevity realm, right?"
"What's our statement?" Lu Yuanbai was surprised, thinking, does this young man still have his own system? Is he going to blaze an unprecedented trail
When Lu Yuanbai was cursing and thinking, Ning Jiujiu gave a simple answer: "I am better."
“…” Lu Yuanbai didn’t know how to refute him.
Ning glanced at the body on the ground for a long time and said: "You should deal with him, deal with it more cleanly, and treat what happened in Hidden Peak today as if it never happened."
Lu Yuanbai looked at the separated corpses on the ground. After the great revenge was avenged, he felt a sense of emptiness. Many things in the past came to mind. When he entered the hospital with Bing Rong more than 20 years ago, he was only ten years old. As a child, when bandits massacred the village, he was "rescued" by his master and brought to the peak to practice.
He wanted to recall more, but found that many memories had been blurred. Whether it was love or hate, the once profound emotions seemed unreal at the moment. Only then did he suddenly realize that the good times had been wasted.
Even if a monk practices Taoism for a thousand years, the most beautiful thing will always be his youth that cannot be returned.
If Ning Jiujiu knew what he was thinking, he would definitely say the fallacy that "young appearance means you will stay young forever".
After a brief silence, Lu Yuanbai dismissed the distracting thoughts in his mind, smoothed his hair back along his forehead, and joked: "The beauty you hugged yourself has returned, and you want me to do this dirty work?"
Ning Jiujiu hugged Lu Wenwen's cocoon clothes and said, "Don't tell anyone."
Lu Yuanbai laughed and said, "Brother Ning, do you dare to do it or not?"
Ning Jiujiu said: "You misunderstood."
Lu Yuanbai clicked his tongue and said: "I have long thought that your relationship with Junior Sister Lu is unusual, but I didn't expect it to be so special. Tsk tsk, the most beautiful sword fairy in the Tianzong is going to be eaten by you. If other disciples find out, our heaven Isn’t Kufeng’s collective heart broken?”
Ning Jiujiu said calmly: "Master and I don't have that kind of relationship."
Lu Yuanbai was unreasonable and said: "There is no one around now, what are you pretending to be? I didn't expect that someone like Junior Sister Marry, who doesn't eat fireworks, would be moved by mortal hearts. When the time comes, you two will become Taoist couples." , I find it extremely interesting when I think of a cold junior sister being bullied by someone seven or eight years younger than me."
Ning Jiujiu hugged Lu Wenwen and walked out, hoping to find a secluded cave to hide first.
Lu Yuanbai refused to give up and asked: "When will you have a wedding night, have a baby, or get married, hey..."
Ning Jiujiu said helplessly: "Uncle Master, your master's body is still on the ground. You don't need to be so lively, right?"
Lu Yuanbai's revenge was avenged, and he felt much better after all. He inserted the sword, put it on his back, and asked curiously: "Don't you really like Lu Yuanbai?"
"I like it." Ning Jiujiu said without thinking.
Lu Yuanbai frowned and said, "Since you like it, what do you mean I misunderstood?"
Ning hesitated for a moment and said, "But I still have a fiancée."
Lu Yuanbai was shocked and thought, could this be a baby kiss? After this young man attained immortality and met his beautiful master, he thought about getting rid of his lousy wife? Oh... No wonder he pretended that he didn't like Lu Marion. It turned out that he was afraid that people would think he was ungrateful.
Oh, men who have gained power are indeed like this.
Although Lu Yuanbai admired Ning Jiujiu's talent, he felt a trace of contempt for his character at this moment.
He continued to ask: "Are you married to your fiancée?"
Ning Jiujiu said: "Not yet."
Lu Yuanbai thought that it would be easier to deal with it if there was no such thing, so he said with the mentality of trying to persuade a breakup rather than a reconciliation: "Then just cancel the engagement."
Ning Changjiu smiled and said: "Uncle Master is really good at predicting things. In about two and a half years, I will break off the engagement."
Lu Yuanbai's eyes widened. He was just joking at first, but he never thought that Ning Jiujiu was really such a beast.
When you have a new love, you forget about the old love... Hey, as expected, the more someone looks like a gentleman on the outside, the more ruthless and unjust they are. Only those who seem to be unruly and unrestrained like me are the seeds of infatuation.
Lu Yuanbai didn’t want to dissuade people from personal matters, so he just asked: “Then do you still like your fiancée?”
Ning Jiujiu stopped, raised his chin slightly, and stared into the darkness ahead.
He did not open his sword eyes or golden pupils.
When you can't see anything, you can often hear the voice in your heart most clearly.
January in Linhe City flows through my heart like water.
"She should like it." Ning Jiujiu came to this conclusion.
Lu Yuanbai frowned, feeling that he didn't understand the world of young people more and more: "Why should I cancel the engagement if I like it?"
Ning Changjiu said angrily: "You have been a bachelor for more than thirty years, what do you know?"
"?" Lu Yuanbai almost didn't lift it up in one breath. He covered his chest and let out an ouch, feeling that his injury was getting worse.
He was not convinced and decided to ask a question that could get him back: "So, who do you like more, your fiancée or Lu Jianjian? If you don't answer, I won't let you out of the cold prison!"
As he said that, Lu Yuanbai rubbed his wrist. He was confident that with his own level, it shouldn't be a problem to stop him.
Ning Jiujiu didn't resist anything, he actually started to think seriously.
"I like them all." Ning Jiujiu said.
Lu Yuanbai took a breath, thinking why this person is more shameless than I thought, "What about your junior sister Ning Xiaoling?"
"She is still a child." Ning Jiujiu finally showed some moral sentiment.
But Lu Yuanbai heard the implicit message - do you want to grow up before taking action
I bother!
"Then if you marry Lu Yuanwen, wouldn't it mean that we, the Peak Master, would be your concubines? What kind of words would that sound like!" Lu Yuanbai said.
Ning Jiujiu hugged Lu Wenwen's cocoon clothes and walked out. His words were plain but serious: "How lonely is it to walk alone on the road? On the road of spiritual cultivation, you should have two or three partners. They are each other's Taoist friends and share the path to heaven. This is not a human marriage. When it comes to marriage, there is no distinction between priority and inferiority, only the friendship in the heart is the same and the path is the same."
Lu Yuanbai opened his sword eyes slightly and looked at the back of Ning Jiujiu holding the sleeping beautiful woman and leaving. He was shocked and speechless. He had a mouthful of blood stuck in his throat and could not come out. He just thought, if he wanted With such shameless eloquence, I think it’s not like I can’t keep Wan Qin.
He sighed, leaned down, picked up his master's body, drew his sword, and pierced his head like a watermelon. He said to himself: "You have been in the peak for three years, and you are going to marry your fiancée." Break off the engagement. If I were your fiancée, I would cry, make trouble, and hang myself for three years... huh?"
Lu Yuanbai groaned and suddenly remembered something.
It seems that the female emperor of Zhao Kingdom is also rumored to be breaking off her engagement with her fiancé. How many years has it been
Before Ning Jiujiu was about to walk out of the corridor, Lu Yuanbai asked loudly: "Wait a minute! I'd like to ask, that... I don't know who Ning's fiancée's name is, who she is?"
Ning Jiujiu did not hide anything: "When you sent us to Linhe City, you mentioned her, Zhao Xiang'er, on the sword boat."
Lu Yuanbai's heart was unsteady, and the mouthful of blood stuck in his throat finally vomited out.
…
…
When Ning Jiujiu walked out of the cold prison, Yinfeng experienced the second earthquake.
He vaguely guessed something.
He used Lu Marry's clothes to make a rope, tied Lu Marry and carried her on his back.
Just when he wanted to go to Hidden Peak to retreat and not care about worldly affairs, an uninvited guest came to Hidden Peak.
He is Fang Hege, the top disciple of Shouxiao Peak.
"You are indeed here." Fang Hege said.
"Is something wrong?" Ning asked for a long time.
Fang Hege said: "Now the entire sect is looking for you."
Ning Jiujiu said: "The sect master is back?"
Fang Hege nodded.
Ning Jiujiu asked: "What state is Master Hanchi in now?"
Fang Hege smiled and said: "Master Hanchi's realm has dropped a lot, even I can see it."
Ning Jiujiu was confused and said: "Master Hanchi has almost exhausted the sect's fortune for a hundred years. He must be the sinner of our sect. Why not capture him and put him in a cold prison?"
Fang Hege was stunned, thinking why are you so good at deceiving your master and destroying your ancestors
But originally the other peak masters had this plan, but...
"The complete Nine Infants are also back with the sect master." Fang Hege sighed.
Ning Jiujiu frowned suddenly, and his original train of thought suddenly stopped.
In his understanding, either Hanchi Zhenren defeated Zhang Chengyu and won the Nine Infants, or he lost and was swallowed directly by the Ba Snake and was not allowed to be reincarnated.
What does it mean to lose and win at the same time
"Then let's welcome the sect leader back to the peak together." Ning Jiujiu has always been able to advance and retreat.
Fang Hege didn't know what to say, so he directly sent a message: "The clan wants to see you."
Ning Jiujiu guessed the reason and still pretended to be stupid: "Why do you want to see me?"
Fang Hege said: "The second half of the Tianyu Jianjing is missing. We have all seen what happened today. You have a close relationship with the Jianjing, and we all suspect that it is related to you."
Ning Jiujiu asked: "Does he know about the Sword Scripture?"
Fang Hege said: "It is inevitable that the news will leak out."
Ning Jiujiu asked again: "How did you know I was at Hidden Peak?"
Fang Hege hesitated and said: "Master guessed that you were in Hidden Peak and asked me to look for you. I didn't expect that I actually bumped into you."
Ning Jiujiu nodded, knowing that Jing Yangxia did not want to make his position clear for the time being, so he asked his disciple to take the blame.
Fang Hege looked at the thing he was carrying behind him. At first, he thought it was a big sword or something. After looking carefully, he noticed that there was hair flowing out from the back of Ning Jiujiu's head.
"Master Lu Feng?" Fang Hege was surprised: "Is this... Master Lu Feng has broken into the Purple Court Realm?"
Ning Jiujiu said: "I want to protect Lu Marion, so don't bother me."
Fang Hege sighed: "But the order of the sect master..."
Ning Jiujiu said: "You are no match for me, don't force me to destroy you."
"What about me?" Before Fang Hege could speak, a voice sounded from behind.
Ning Jiujiu came back to his senses and saw an old man suddenly appearing behind him. The old man's body was half empty and half solid, obviously not his real body.
It is Hanchi Zhenren.
"The real person is driving the car. I don't know what happened?" Ning Jiujiu pretended to be stupid.
Master Hanchi looked at the woman in cocoon clothes who was more beautiful than snow, and said with emotion: "Lu Marian really has a good apprentice."
Ning Jiujiu said: "If you want to do something, let your true body come, don't be a coward."
Master Hanchi said: "Hand over the Heavenly Mandate Sword Scripture."
Ning Jiujiu said: "Come and get it yourself."
Master Hanchi couldn't let go of today's defeat in Liantian Town, but fortunately, Jiuying was finally intact and preserved. This was his last hope.
If we look at his swordsmanship alone, he is now even inferior to Jing Yangxia, the peak master of Shouxiao Peak.
But he lost, after all, he lost to that old fox Zhang Chengyu.
He never thought that even though he had been powerful in the sect for many years, there would be disciples who dared to disobey him face to face.
"You want to rebel against the clan?" Master Hanchi asked sharply.
Ning Jiujiu knew that this projection had no lethality, so he didn't even bother to pay attention to him. He carried Lu Jiumei on his back and walked towards the outside of Hidden Peak.
When Master Hanchi saw the woman in the cocoon, he was puzzled: "Most of the Tianzong's luck has disappeared, and even several peak masters have fallen into the lower realms. Why did Lu Yueyou get promoted to the Ziting? Is there any secret in it?" "
Ning didn't answer his question for a long time. He knew in his heart that as long as Lu Jiaoyue woke up, they would be invincible.
But the Inner Demon Tribulation also takes a lot of time.
Even when Ning Xiaoling overcame the previous tribulation, with his help, at the same time, the little girl in the inner demon tribulation directly used her authority to cut out the complex and simplify it to the key points, and it was completed in the time of a stick of incense.
He knew that Lu Jianhui would definitely be able to escape, but he didn't know how long it would take.
He had to delay long enough.
"Stop him." Master Hanchi gave the order.
Fang Hege was forced to draw his sword.
Ning Jiujiu showed no mercy at all. The moment the swords and fires of the two sides touched each other, the outcome was overwhelming.
Ning Jiujiu's sword intention and energy were much stronger. The tongue of sword fire pressed along the sword body, burning Wage's hand holding the sword above. His pupils shrank and he was forced to retract his hand and abandon the sword. His body swept back. Ning Jiujiu He grabbed the sword with his sword, then swung the opponent's sword directly to the ground and broke it in half.
Master Hanchi looked gloomy.
Fang Hege had no power to stop him. When Ning Jiujiu was about to escape, Master Hanchi's words once again became a stumbling block.
"Ning Xiaoling is your junior sister, right?" Master Hanchi asked.
Ning Changjiu's expression suddenly turned cold: "Where is she now?"
Master Hanchi smiled and said: "Someone is taking care of her. She is fine. You don't have to worry."
Ning Jiujiu sighed, wondering what happened to this sect? How come anyone related to the position of the sect leader is either a devil or a madman? From now on, Lu Marian should not be the leader of the clan.
Ning Changjiu's expression quickly calmed down. He stabilized Lu Marian on his back and said, "Like Yan Zhou, the Sword Sutra is in my body. If you dare to hurt my junior sister even a little bit, this Sword Sutra will You’ll never get it in your life.”
Master Hanchi said: "No, the Sword Sutra is not only in your body."
He paused before saying, "It's still in your memory."
Master Hanchi just wanted to tell him that since he could erase his memory, of course he could also extract his memory. If his realm hadn't plummeted at this moment, he would have directly forced him.
As soon as he said this, several swords and clothes swept in from the natural cave outside Hidden Peak, like arrows with snowy feathers embedded in them.
Over the years, Master Hanchi has many followers in Hidden Peak.
He told everyone that he had killed the master of the Zitian Dao Sect and the demons in Liantian Town, and the Nine Infants he had recaptured were the best evidence. However, he was seriously injured as a result, his realm plummeted, and he needed to recuperate in Huanpu Mountain. Years.
Although Jiuying was also seriously injured, it was still a life at the top of the Five Paths when it was at its peak. How could the ordinary Ziting realm be its opponent
Although many people in the sect have different intentions, no one has openly resisted him for the time being. Even the master of the three peaks has not made his position clear.
The arrow-like snow shadows are all elders of Tianzong, and each of them is at least at the first level of longevity.
Ning Jiujiu frowned slightly, and little spiritual lights appeared around him.
"Xiao Fei Kong Formation?" Master Hanchi was slightly shocked.
The snow shadow fluttered into the sky, and Ning Jiujiu's figure disappeared.
But the next moment, he returned to the same place again.
Master Hanchi is integrating with the complete Jiu Ying and naturally inherits Jiu Ying's authority.
No matter how mysterious the Xiao Fei Kong Formation is, its origin lies in the use of space. At this moment, in front of Master Hanchi, he felt a little overwhelmed.
His body had clearly appeared in the Peak Lord's Hall, but before his feet even touched the ground, he was still forcefully pulled back.
Master Hanchi looked at him and asked doubtfully: "In the main hall of Tianku Peak, there is actually a formation set up by you? Oh, I originally thought that Lu Jiaoyou had truly cultivated into a fairy of ice soul and snow soul, but unexpectedly, she actually had the same formation as her own. Disciples have fornication and have no sense of shame."
His words failed to stir up any ripples in Ning Jiujiu's heart.
The only thing he had to do was stall for time.
After his figure was pulled back, those figures also held swords and slashed towards him.
And throughout the four peaks, shouts like Hong Zhongda Lu also began to echo.
"Ning Jiujiu, a disciple of Tianku Peak, secretly hid the sect's most important treasure, the Tianyu Sword Sutra. He is a major sinner of the Tiansect and should be severely punished according to the sect's rules. Now he is running away in fear of crime and trying to hurt others. The four peaks should be linked together. , guard the four peach curtains of Tianzong together, and don't let this sinner escape from the peak."
With the help of Jiuying's power, these words seemed to be contained in a fixed space, bringing them to every corner of the four peaks with incomparable clarity.
Each peak reacts differently.
The figure of the young man in white standing with a sword appeared in their minds. In any case, they could not connect this sudden swordsman genius with the sinner.
"I think that sect leader is the sinner!" The disciples of Tianku Peak were the most aggrieved.
"What Junior Brother Ning did today is obvious to all. However, the sect leader was clearly in the peak. When the four peaks were in danger, he did not help at all. Now I have spent most of my luck. I have finally entered the realm of immortality. He was beaten back all of a sudden!”
"Yes, I also support Junior Brother Ning! That sect leader must be coveting the Sword Scripture, and we must not give it to him!"
"By the way, where is the master? Where is the master?"
"Lerou, you are the senior sister, let you take charge of the overall situation."
"I… "
"Stop arguing." Yazhu calmed everyone's discussion and said: "After so many things, everyone should have a clear idea of who is good and who is bad. What Hanchi relies on now is just a little residual power. Today If he wants to touch people in our peak, we as a whole will never agree."
Amidst their conversation, Ning Jiujiu was already fighting with the surrounding figures.
Ning Jiujiu had fired a sword today, and his spiritual power had been depleted a lot, but his speed and determination with the sword had not diminished at all.
In the hidden peak, the lights of swords and shadows are chaotic.
When several swords were slashed at the same time, Ning Jiujiu leaned down without mercy and blocked it with his back. Lu Jiaojiao's cocoon clothes at the moment were extremely flexible, even those in the Purple Court realm could hardly cut through them. Of course, she was not afraid of these few swords. An elder in the longevity realm.
The sword blade cut into the cocoon clothes and was shaken open by the flexible cocoon silk.
Ning Changjiu held his sword and swept it. The sword fire formed a circle and bloomed brilliantly among several people.
They avoided his sharp edge and stepped back to retract their swords. Ning Jiujiu took his sights on the weakest person among them, took a step forward, pressed closer, and wrapped the sword in his hand around the opponent's sword, which sounded sharply together with the sound of the iron clanking. , and the screams of the elders.
Ning Changjiu's sword instantly broke through his defense and chopped off one of his forearms.
When the forearm holding the sword fell, Ning Jiujiu picked it up with the edge of his sword, broke through the pursuit of the three men, and stabbed Hanchi Zhenren.
Master Hanchi was not his true self after all. He couldn't avoid it and was shattered by a sword.
Ning Changjiu saw the right moment, held a sword to light the fire with one hand, and drew the flying formation with the other hand. He forced the three elders back and left Hidden Peak at the same time.
But the space is misaligned again.
He appeared near the top of Tianku Peak.
A pair of eyes were staring at him.
That was another phantom of Master Hanchi, with a faint smile on his face.
Master Hanchi raised his hand.
On the top of the Tiancao Peak, the sword stars hanging all over the sky suddenly lit up.
Even during the day, those lights looked eye-catching, just like fireworks that exploded and solidified in the air.
The sword stars on Tianku Peak connected into a sword intent.
This sword intention was left by the ancestor. Although it is at the top of Tianku Peak, it is actually controlled by the Huanpu Mountain Sect Master Hall.
After years of hardship and usurpation by disciples, it is no longer complete, but when the vast sword intent is like a fire reaching the sky, it still emits a powerful enough power.
Ning Jiujiu felt the sword intent, and he quickly thought of a way to escape, and said: "I am just an ordinary disciple, why don't you dare to see me in my true body?"
Master Hanchi said: "You are not worthy."
Ning Changjiu said coldly: "Are you worried about being killed by other peak masters?"
Master Hanchi was struck in his heart and remained silent. For some reason, there was always a curse lingering in his heart - you will die of betrayal.
This sentence is like a tumor on the heart and poison on the bones.
He wanted to refute harshly, but the funny thing was that this sentence came true in a very short period of time.
The stars in the sky are connected, and the vast sword intention is like a large meteor shower, all falling together.
But it didn't fall on Ning Jiujiu.
A broad sword stood in front of him.
Lu Yuanbai rolled up his sleeves. He held the sword in both hands, his powerful muscles tense, and he maintained a chopping posture. This posture even looked a bit silly.
But the sword intention left by the Patriarch was cut into two pieces by his sword, which was like chopping wood.
"I helped you rob your junior sister. Now Yazhu is taking care of her. Don't worry. An Xin draws out his sword. It was too dark to see clearly your sword move that day. I wonder if Brother Ning can demonstrate it again?" Lu Yuanbai turned his head and grinned.
"Thank you, Uncle Lu." Ning Jiujiu saluted with clasped fists.
"If I am still alive then, don't forget to send me an invitation to your wedding. Lao Lu, I also want to see the world." Lu Yuanbai said with a smile.
Master Hanchi was trembling with anger. He stared at the disciple he had cultivated himself and said angrily: "I opened your eyes, taught you your cultivation, and taught you sword moves. How can I fail you? How dare you use your sword? Pointing at me?"
Lu Yuanbai sighed and said: "Master is indeed extremely kind to me, but I suddenly want to understand something today."
"What?"
"I want to be a good person."
"Good guy?"
"Well, I want to be a good person through and through, a just knight. This was my dream when I was thirteen." Lu Yuanbai pulled out a piece of hair, put it on the blade of the sword and blew it, and the hair caught the wind. Then he broke and fell to the ground lightly: "If master really wants to cut off the lineage of Tianzong and plunge Nanzhou into water and fire, then I will have no choice but to use my sword."
"Be a good person?" Master Hanchi listened to his words and suddenly laughed loudly: "Even if you are worthy of the common people, if you use a sword against me, will you really have a clear conscience?"
Lu Yuanbai closed his eyes and sighed: "Maybe this is the price of being a knight."
In the Huanpu Mountain, the real body of Hanchi is sitting cross-legged.
There is a book open in front of him.
It was an ancient scroll in the Southern Wilderness. On the title page of the ancient scroll were three words "Headless God".
Master Hanchi stopped looking at the scroll and suddenly stretched out his hand.
In just a moment, the dragon-wrapped pillars in the four peaks shook together. The mountains and rivers collapsed, the rivers cut off their veins, and the remaining luck and spiritual energy from hundreds of miles around rushed towards the Huanpu Mountain.
With the help of the Heavenly Soul Lamp, Jiuying had given birth to deathly gray skin and scales. The moment the spiritual power surged, the head in the middle opened its eyes first, and then, the other eight giant heads also slowly opened their eyes. Eye, it was once a scornful king, but now although its divinity exists, it has become a puppet controlled by others.
"Be a good person..." Master Hanchi touched the ancient scroll and sighed: "Your last wish is very good."
