In Li Yan's narration, whenever there was any connection with minor details, Shuang Qingqing would keep asking about it, which dragged on for longer and longer.
Fortunately, there are some things that can be made public for Li Yan and others to see, which should not be considered core secrets. Li Yan was able to answer them fluently.
It’s just that the disciples from other peaks may not be as interested in the history of Xiaozhu Peak, and may not read it as carefully as Li Yan and his friends.
When Li Yan was in the sect, his biggest hobby in his spare time was reading various classics, and this time it really came in handy.
There were even some things he hadn't noticed before, but after Shuang Qingqing asked him from different angles, he was able to associate them with many things.
Some things that he had been unable to figure out before were actually connected together by him, and for a moment he felt as if he had solved his puzzles, which made Li Yan smile bitterly in his heart.
In response to Shuang Qingqing's questions, Li Yan did not answer them with all he knew as he seemed to, although he knew that what he saw was not the core secret of the Wuliang Sect.
But he also knew that the mouth could cause trouble, so he would never mention anything that he thought might lead to serious problems, or he would say he knew nothing about it.
Although Shuang Qingqing had her doubts about this, she did not delve into it. She was just following the clues given by Li Yan and making her own inferences.
Just like that, when Li Yan was finally confused by the endless questions, Shuang Qingqing finally stopped asking questions. Seeing this, Li Yan hurriedly asked to leave. He didn't want to stay here any longer.
Besides, it was almost evening outside, and it was almost time for Wei Chongran to look for him.
Seeing that Li Yan proposed to go and see his master, Shuang Qingqing waved her hand indifferently.
She also came back from the battle at the front, and of course knew that Wei Chongran was the apparent person in charge of Fengliang Mountain. In the afternoon, he should be dealing with the follow-up plans given by the Nascent Soul cultivator.
This master and disciple must really have something to talk about, and she has asked almost all the questions she should ask.
Seeing Shuang Qingqing waving for him to leave, Li Yan hurriedly thanked her, and then, under Bai Rou's apologetic gaze, he impatiently walked out of the cave.
Bai Rou sat quietly by the side the entire afternoon without saying a word, only occasionally getting up to refill the tea for Shuang Qingqing and Li Yan, and then sitting quietly by the side again.
Seeing Li Yan leaving in a hurry, Bai Rou felt a little disappointed, but she still stood up and followed him, walking lightly to see him off.
In the cave hall, only Shuang Qingqing was left, staring at the ceiling with her beautiful eyes half-closed, and for a moment no one knew what she was thinking.
Outside the cave, the evening glow shone on Bai Rou's graceful figure, outlining a scene of tranquility. She said with an apologetic look on her beautiful face.
"Junior Brother Li, I'm a little sorry today. You know that Master is just like this..."
When Li Yan saw Bai Rou coming out, he stopped outside the cave.
“Haha, Senior Shuang saved my life back then, so it is my great honor to be able to answer some of her questions.
Oh, by the way, it seems that Elder Chi Gong's injury has definitely improved significantly."
Li Yan didn't want to say more about Shuang Qingqing. Every word they said would probably fall into the ears of the man in the cave.
If I provoke the other party again, it is impossible for him to kill me here, but there will definitely be punishment.
Seeing Bai Rou being sent out, Li Yan didn't want to just say he was leaving, so he remembered the change in Bai Rou's expression when he first came in the afternoon, and asked about it immediately.
But when he said the words "much improved", he slightly emphasized the tone, and Bai Rou naturally heard the meaning of Li Yan's words.
Just mentioning Elder Chi Gong's injury made her feel happy and smiled, making the cave dwelling under the setting sun become extremely magnificent, which also stunned Li Yan.
"Haha, Junior Brother Li's intelligence is probably one of the best in the entire sect, and I haven't hidden it from you.
When my master came to see me in the morning, I mentioned my master's injury, and my master later went to see me.
By the way, Master's injuries have improved a lot. I estimate that he will recover after another three or four years of retreat."
Bai Rou chuckled and said, in fact, things were not as easy as she said. When Shuang Qingqing came to see the inheritor of Muliu Sect, she saw that Bai Rou's eyes were red and she looked listless.
Of course she knew why Bai Rou did that, but with her personality, she didn't want to save anyone other than Mu Liumen.
After thinking it over again and again, Bai Rou knelt on the ground and begged even though Shuang Qingqing deliberately avoided the topic. This made Shuang Qingqing very angry and she scolded Bai Rou severely.
They said that with her personality, there was no way she would be able to lead a sect in the future, and that Elder Chi Gong would not die, he would just stay in seclusion for a few more years.
The Wuliang Sect naturally has plenty of top-quality elixirs and also has Nascent Soul cultivators, so why would it be her turn to meddle in such trivial matters
But Bai Rou just knelt and refused to get up. If it was someone else, Shuang Qingqing would either ignore them or directly beat them away. But for Bai Rou, she loved her and so apart from scolding her, she didn't really do anything to her.
She knew Bai Rou's character very well. If the problem was not resolved, it would probably leave an indelible pain in her heart, which would definitely affect her cultivation.
Shuang Qingqing was angry and resentful, but a genius like Bai Rou in puppetry was rare, so how could she really give up? Then, how could she leave the "Mu Liu Clan" with peace of mind in the future? She had no choice but to accompany Bai Rou to Elder Chi Gong.
When Elder Chi Gong saw that it was Shuang Qingqing who came, he was immediately shocked. How could this cruel and murderous senior come to his cave
Before, although we knew that the former great elder of "Muliu Sect" had returned, we thought he was just an ordinary Nascent Soul.
But ever since Bai Rou brought back the jade slip last time and gave it to Grandmaster Mo Qing to read, he knew that this "Mu Liu Men" Nascent Soul was definitely not simple, but he was just guessing at the time.
That was because Grandmaster Mo Qing had personally ordered him not to recruit any cultivators from the Muliu Sect when recruiting cultivators from various sects, and he also required that other recruits must be strictly supervised and not allowed to go.
In the beginning, Elder Chi Gong did not understand, because many first-rate sects that were several times more powerful than the Muliu Sect not only had Nascent Soul ancestors coming, but also had a large number of Golden Core and Foundation Establishment masters recruited from their sects.
Although the Wuliang Sect was relatively lenient towards these sects, it would not be like the Muliu Sect which did not recruit any cultivators.
It was not until the great battle a few days ago that Elder Chi Gong witnessed with his own eyes the methods used by the great elder of the "Muliu Sect" who suddenly joined the battle, and only then did he understand why Grandmaster Mo Qing gave that order.
Obviously, Master Mo Qing and the others knew about the past of the "Muliu Sect" and might even have heard of the name of the Nascent Soul cultivator named Shuang Qingqing.
If he guessed correctly, the content of the jade slip that Shuang Qingqing asked Bai Rou to bring back should be the transaction conditions proposed to the Wuliang Sect when fighting against the demons.
It must be Shuang Qingqing who does it personally, and no cultivator from the "Muliu Sect" can be recruited. However, the conditions are too generous.
In the end, in the battles of the past few days, Shuang Qingqing's reputation was unmatched. Among the two Nascent Soul Middle Stage cultivators who were killed on the side of the demon cultivators in the entire battle, one of them was beaten to death by the delicate Nascent Soul Early Stage female cultivator in front of him.
Shuang Qingqing's attack was quite explosive, and he didn't even give the opponent a chance to teleport his Nascent Soul. This was the most surprising and unexpected scene in this battle.
A cultivator in the early Nascent Soul stage completely crushed a cultivator in the middle Nascent Soul stage. It was like being in a dream. Moreover, Elder Chi Gong later heard something that he found extremely absurd.
It is said that when the great elder of "Muliu Sect" killed the mid-Nascent Soul cultivator, he did not seem to be using his full strength and looked very relaxed.
This made Shuang Qingqing like a sudden emergence of a new force. If one of the opponent's late Nascent Soul stage demon generals came directly to chase and kill him, Shuang Qingqing would still be able to dodge it in the end.
This made all the cultivators gasp in shock. A great cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage was actually unable to kill a cultivator in the early Nascent Soul stage. Could it be that Shuang Qingqing was hiding his cultivation level
Until the demon general in the late Nascent Soul stage was intercepted by the divine monk Lu Yuan, Shuang Qingqing still looked full of energy, which was astonishing.
Afterwards, she managed to hold back two of the opponent's middle-Nascent Soul demon generals and joined forces with them, freeing up her own middle-Nascent Soul cultivators to kill two of the opponent's early-Nascent Soul cultivators in a row.
It was not until the two demon cultivators in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul Stage, at the cost of their lives, used their secret techniques and exerted a great deal of their essence and blood, that they forced Shuang Qingqing to retreat. Only then did they resist the attack of the Nascent Soul cultivators of Fengliang Mountain.
For a moment, the ancient ape puppet controlled by Shuang Qingqing became the most dazzling existence in this battle, like a peerless ferocious beast.
So even though he knew that Bai Rou had a close personal relationship with the great elder of the "Muliu Sect", Elder Chi Gong did not expect that the other party would actually come in person to treat his injuries.
He was so shocked that he couldn't stand it anymore. Finally, under the murderous cold gaze of Shuang Qingqing, Elder Chi Gong tremblingly finished examining the injuries.
Shuang Qingqing simply pointed a few times with her fingers, and Elder Chi Gong felt that the stagnant spiritual energy in his body began to flow smoothly like ice and snow melting.
It would take at least several years for him to open up these necrotic tendons on his own, even with the help of high-quality elixirs.
Now, in just a few short breaths, he has lost several years of hard training in seclusion.
Elder Chi Gong felt that those few seemingly simple movements were extremely mysterious, as if they were some kind of ancient technique, but he didn't dare to ask.
With a mixture of anxiety and surprise in his heart, and under the cold gaze of Shuang Qingqing that seemed to freeze the whole world, Elder Chi Gong respectfully sent off the God of Death who had only stayed for less than ten breaths. He felt that he was almost collapsing on the ground.
He knew that Bai Rou had pleaded for him, but he didn't expect that he owed a favor to his own disciple. Finally, he waved to Bai Rou quietly and quickly closed the cave door.
"Well, that's good, but Elder Chi Gong and the others shouldn't stay in Fengliang Mountain any longer, right?"
"Yes, Master, these seriously injured monks should be teleported back to their respective sects or areas under their jurisdiction tonight."
Next, Li Yan briefly spoke a few words to Bai Rou, looked at the sky, and then flew away.
Looking at Li Yan's back, Bai Rou didn't know what to feel for a moment. If Shuang Qingqing's gesture today was true, Li Yan should have understood it, but Li Yan always talked and laughed with her casually as he did at the beginning, and there was nothing unusual.
Bai Rou felt a little empty in her heart, but her personality naturally wouldn't show on her face, so she waved goodbye to Li Yan.
Li Yan didn’t think too much about it. He flew directly towards the mountain where Wei Chongran’s cave was.
When he arrived in front of Wei Chongran's cave, looking at the motionless formation restrictions, Li Yan knew that his master had not returned yet.
But by then it was getting dark, and he didn't plan to come back again, so he just found a place on the platform to sit cross-legged in meditation.
