In the huge Tongtian Sect, there is a green and quiet forest.
The deeper you go, the more vitality you can feel.
The deeper you go in, you will reach a sea of clouds where the air is fresh and the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant.
It turns out that there are countless hills here.
As you walk, you can see a cave between clouds and water.
Qingya Cave.
I guess it must be a paradise.
When you think that the cave is full of gods, joy and laughter, then you are wrong.
Chao Ji always didn't want to come to this place, just like he hated going to Wei Feng Pavilion.
When a believer saw him coming, he quickly knelt down and paid homage: "I pay my respects to Mr. Chao Ji."
Chao Ji replied "No courtesy" and walked upright into the cave.
Along the way, there were many believers bowing respectfully.
Along the way, there were corpses covered with white flowers. Or believers, or civilians.
Along the way, the scent of flowers no longer filled the air, but the smell of blood.
Soon, Chaoji passed through every different mechanism, passed through the dark tunnels, and reached the inner chamber of Qingya Cave.
In this small cave, there are hidden mysteries left and right. Chao Ji exerted force with his right hand and used his inner strength to hit the stone top above his head.
Soon, a beautiful rose appeared under his feet.
He pricked his finger with a rose thorn, and blood soon flowed out.
The blood dripped on the petals of the rose, and slowly, the flower closed incredibly.
And then the door to the stone chamber slowly opened.
Inside the stone chamber, there were some scattered firelights hanging on the left and right, and in the center sat a middle-aged man dressed in black.
The extraordinary person between his eyebrows is Zhuge Qiu, the leader of Tongtian Sect.
He looked very young. Under the firelight, it was not difficult to see his fair face and strong muscles.
Hearing the noise, Zhuge Qiu slowly opened his eyes. He knew that it was his eldest son, Zhuge Chaoji, who had arrived.
Apart from Zhuge Qiu, only Zhuge Chaoji's blood can open the door of this stone chamber.
The mechanism inside seemed much easier.
After entering the stone room, Chao Ji slowly walked to Zhuge Qiu's side when he saw the stone door slowly closing.
Soon, he knelt down in front of him and said, "Ji'er pays homage to father."
Zhuge Qiu smiled and said, "Ji'er, I heard that you saved a woman tonight."
"Father, that's right." Chao Ji didn't expect that the news of his father living in this stone room would come so quickly.
Zhuge Qiu shook his head, with a hint of denial in his heart, and asked: "This is not like your usual style. Tell me what attracts you to her."
"She knows medicine."
"Really? Are you sure he can heal my injury?" After hearing this, Zhuge Qiu nodded secretly, so that's the case.
"I'm not sure yet. Ji'er will observe carefully." Chao Ji returned respectfully.
"If I hadn't been injured by the Zuohu of the Defying Heaven Alliance that day, I wouldn't have to linger in this cave today." Thinking about that day, Zhuge Qiu still felt unconvinced in his heart.
"Father, is the Zuohu of the Heaven Defying Alliance alone so powerful?"
"Yes." Zhuge Qiu nodded, and then said: "Ji'er, the Anti-Tian Alliance has always been mysterious. Just a left guard can freely enter and exit the Tongtian Sect. You can imagine how powerful the alliance leader is."
Zhuge Qiu originally thought that his martial arts was already at its peak, but when he encountered a Zuohu, he could be invisibly injured.
It's really scary. Fortunately, the Anti-Tian Alliance's power and numbers are not as strong as his. Otherwise, sooner or later, this huge Tongtian Sect will become the prey of the Anti-Tian Alliance.
"Where are the believers who are protecting you that day?" Chaoji asked worriedly.
"They have all been used by me to practice martial arts, so they can be regarded as worthy deaths." Zhuge Qiu smiled coldly.
Chaoji was terrified, after all, those were his father's confidants. But he still took action, but the news of his injury could not be leaked.
"What about Zuo Hu's corpse guard?"
"Look, it's the pile of bones."
Chao Ji looked around and saw that among the bones on the ground, where his father was pointing, there lay a majestic corpse. He could be so heroic after death. This spirit actually made him awe-inspiring.
Zhuge Qiu never expected that the Heaven-defying Alliance would be so powerful that it could break through the black iron at the entrance of the cave.
It made him shudder.
If he knew how to get in, he might not be his opponent.
Soon, Zhuge Qiu said to Chaoji: "Ji'er, you are gentle by nature and follow your mother. This is why I like you so much. Taoism talks about the balance of yin and yang, but I don't believe it. I want to see the gods to kill me." God, I will eliminate all demons when I encounter them, and no one can stand in my way.”
Hearing this, Chao Ji couldn't help but recall the mother in her memory. She was a gentle woman with a pair of slender hands who could weave clothes and stretch cotton.
But to this day, he still doesn't understand why his father is the complete opposite of her. He is bloodthirsty and likes to kill people.
"Father, you already have the power to reach heaven, why do you still have to fight to the death?"
Chaoji didn't understand this, but he also knew that he followed his mother and had a strong and upright character.
But his father preferred him, maybe for this reason.
He deeply understood that his father had always been suspicious, but he was always so gentle when it came to his mother. But her gentleness only became a sharp sword for him to kill her.
Thinking of this, he didn't dare to think about it anymore. The epitome of his childhood was still the thorn in his heart.
"Shut up, what can reach the sky! Even three feet of ice cannot be frozen in a day, and my desire for magical power is even more tireless."
At this point, Zhuge Qiu couldn't help but vomit a mouthful of blood due to his excitement, held his chest fiercely with his hands, and kept breathing heavily.
Seeing this, Chao Ji quickly stood up and stepped forward to heal Zhuge Qiu's injuries.
His hands lined Zhuge Qiu's back, continuously transmitting his physical strength to him.
After a while, Zhuge Qiu became more relaxed, but his energy and blood were insufficient, and his expression became stern.
After he slowly sat down, thinking of his injuries, he said to Chao Ji again: "As for that woman, you have to think carefully about it, test her character first, and make sure she is just an ordinary doctor, not an outsider who arranged her to be here." A spy in my religion. Also, make sure she is a great miraculous doctor."
"Ji'er understands that Ji'er is working on finding out the traitor. If this becomes clear, we can naturally judge the usefulness of this woman."
"That's very good."
"Father, we don't have a clue yet about the traitor Ji'er who is hiding in the church."
"It's okay. He will come out sooner or later. I can't let the two envoys know about my injury."
"Father even doubts them?"
"right."
"Ji'er knows about it, and wants to ask his father if he can get out of the cave in the near future. If he doesn't come out for a long time, he will make the teacher suspicious."
"I'm injured, so it's okay to go out. In the past few days, please send some more boys and girls. Before you find a doctor who can really heal me, I'll use them to heal my wounds."
It was a boy and a girl again, but Chao Ji could only nod obediently.
He always said that he was doing evil and being a villain, but he didn't know when the end would be. There are even times when he wants to run away. But where would he escape to at the end of the world
Disrespecting the father's orders is unfilial.
It is even more unjust to disobey the destiny.
The major issues of right and wrong in this world have long been reversed.
Thinking of this, Chao Ji slowly said: "Father, I can't practice the mountain ginseng roll anymore."
A trace of displeasure flashed in Zhuge Qiu's eyes, and there was even a sense of regret that his son would not succeed: "Why? With it, even if I quietly leave one day, you can succeed as the leader of Tongtian Sect."
"It's so mysterious that Ji'er can't decipher it." As he said this, Chaoji took out the mountain ginseng roll from his sleeve and handed it to Zhuge Qiu.
Zhuge Qiu took the mountain ginseng scroll and couldn't help but read it. When he turned to chapter 20, he asked, "What's wrong with it?"
Chao Ji shook his head and said, "Father, no matter how Ji'er looks, he can't see why."
Zhuge Qiu carefully observed what was written in the book, and soon he smiled: "Silly boy, the ginseng scrolled to this page means that you must get married. You will understand it later."
Hearing this, Chaoji couldn't help but think deeply.
marriage? It means things between men and women.
Soon, Chao Ji told Zhuge Qiu: "Father, my child has no intention of getting married."
But Zhuge Qiu didn't think so. He was the only one who had the chance to inherit the Tongtian Sect.
Although his character is quite upright, Zhuge Qiu still believes that he can be corrected.
"Ji'er, your two sisters have been married as palace ladies to protect the prestige of our Tongtian Sect in Qin. Now Chao Ya only knows how to idle around and cause trouble for no reason. I can only count on you."
Chao Ji looked at Zhuge Qiu in confusion, his face hesitating.
Seeing Zhuge Chaoji's stunned look, Zhuge Qiu said sternly: "Ji'er, you have to remember that indecision is a knife that leads to failure. When facing an opponent, not only must he kill him, but also his whole family. No future troubles.”
Chao Ji's eyelids are lingering and his eyebrows are slightly drooped.
"Ji'er always remembers his father's teachings, so naturally he doesn't dare to forget them."
Zhuge Qiu's eyes flashed with fierceness, and then he asked seriously: "This time, have you managed to leave no trace of the people your father ordered you to kill?"
"Ji'er did it"
Yes, he did.
Zhuge Chaoji could not imagine that the people he had left behind with good intentions came to Tongtian Sect again and wanted revenge, but they died more tragically than his family.
"Very good. Ji'er, you have matured, but you need to make greater progress. You must master this mountain ginseng scroll. This is a martial arts scroll from the Bronze Man tribe."
"The Bronze Man Clan?"
Chao Ji's eyes were startled, and he couldn't help but raise his head and ask Zhuge Qiu.
"What's wrong, Ji'er, do you know this race?"
"Return to father, I don't know."
"It's normal not to know, because I don't know either. This scroll came from the far north. It was picked up by a farmer that day and later presented to the Qin Palace. Now, Qin Le has handed it over to me. Ji Son, you have to hurry up and practice."
Hearing this, Chaoji couldn't help but lower his head and asked, "Can Ji'er marry the woman who is already married to her?"
Zhuge Qiu didn't know what kind of medicine his child had taken today, so he shouted loudly: "No. Only pure women are worthy of you."
Chaoji was stunned for a moment, and it took him a long time to reply: "The wedding will be held after my father recovers from his injury."
At this moment, Zhuge Qiu realized that there was something wrong with Chao Ji's expression. He turned slightly and asked, "Then do you have a favorite woman?"
Chaoji hesitated and thought for a while. Zhuge Qiu must not let Zhuge Qiu know about the broken silver needle. If that happens, the woman will be doomed.
"Father, no. It doesn't matter who you marry. The main thing is to practice magical skills."
"Well, I'm a little tired today. You can go down first." Zhuge Qiu nodded with satisfaction.
"Yes, father."
While saying this, Chao Ji stood up, stepped back slowly, and then gently opened the door of the stone chamber with his right hand.
He guessed the time and it would be daybreak.
Then, unconsciously, a beautiful smile appeared on his lips.
