After being enslaved by Song Yan using his puppet powers, the nine true disciples of the Red Flame Sect were willing to sacrifice their lives in order to fulfill his orders.
Therefore, after discussion, they decided to go to the Sutra Pavilion to steal the skills. However, there was an elder who had reached the Talisman Gathering Realm guarding the Sutra Pavilion. Even if the nine of them joined forces, they would not be a match for each other.
However, humans have weaknesses.
This elder's surname was Duanmu, and his son and daughter-in-law both died while performing sect duties. Therefore, Elder Duanmu's special love for Duanmu Qing, the only child of the Duanmu family, regarded him as the Duanmu family's hope for the future.
Duanmu Qing also lived up to Elder Duanmu's expectations. He was only sixteen years old and had already reached the peak of the Divine Sea. He was expected to break through to the Yuan Dan stage before he was twenty years old. For a while, Elder Duanmu had high hopes for him.
This day.
Duanmuqing is practicing a set of swordsmanship in the independent courtyard.
At this time, two senior brothers and a senior sister came to visit.
He was a little confused, because he was keen on cultivation and had a cold relationship with other senior brothers and sisters, so it was difficult to see anyone visiting him in March and May.
So he looked at the three of them suspiciously and said, "I wonder if Senior Brother Wang, Senior Brother Chen, or Senior Sister Xie will give you any advice when they come?"
Senior Brother Wang smiled and said very politely: "The three of us here actually have something to ask Junior Brother Duanmu for help."
"Oh? What's the matter?" Duanmuqing asked.
"Thank you, junior sister, for telling me!" Senior Brother Wang glanced at the female disciple and said.
The other party nodded, then looked at Duanmu Qing with a sweet smile and said: "Junior Brother Duanmu has already reached the peak of the Divine Sea at the age of sixteen, and those of us who are senior brothers and sisters are far behind."
Although Duan Muqing has a withdrawn personality, he is still a young man after all. When he heard Senior Sister Xie's compliment, he responded humbly, but his eyes could not hide a bit of pride and excitement.
Senior Sister Xie smiled: "Junior Brother Duanmu is so humble. In fact, the thing is like this. We found a special strange beast in the back mountain of the sect. After checking the ancient books, we found out that this strange beast is full of treasures. , so we want to join forces to kill it, but this alien beast is quite powerful, even if the three of us work together, we can't take it down, so we invite Junior Brother Duanmu to join us to kill the alien beast, and wait until we successfully kill it. After the strange beast, junior brother, you can take 40% of it, and the rest should be divided between the three of us?"
"this?"
Hearing Senior Sister Xie's words, Duanmu Qing couldn't help but hesitate. To be honest, as the only child of the Duanmu family, he definitely had no shortage of training resources, so the strange beast was not very attractive to him.
Seeing his hesitation, Senior Sister Xie sneered: "What? Junior Brother Duanmu doesn't like us?"
"No... Thank you, senior sister, please don't misunderstand me. I don't mean to look down on you!" Duan Muqing explained in a panic.
"Then whether you are going or not, please give me a happy message!" Senior Brother Zhou said in a deep voice.
"I go!"
"I knew Duanmu wouldn't refuse, please take care of me later!" Senior Sister Xie smiled again.
After a little preparation, the four of them headed straight for the mountain behind the sect.
The back mountain of the Scarlet Flame Sect is a huge mountain forest. In order to train its disciples, the sect deliberately captured some monsters and threw them into it, so that the disciples could enter and practice.
Half an hour later.
The group of four people had already gone quite far into the back mountain.
Duanmuqing couldn't help but ask: "Sister Xie, how far is it?"
"Don't worry, we're almost there!" As he spoke, Senior Sister Xie, who was very close to Duan Muqing, suddenly took action and slapped Duan Muqing's pubic area with her palm. Duanmu Qing flew out with a groan...
Although Senior Sister Xie is not as good as Duanmu Qing in cultivation, she is still in the middle stage of Shenhai. Therefore, Duanmu Qing's Dantian was almost shattered with one palm, and the opponent was also seriously injured.
When Senior Brother Wang and Senior Brother Zhou heard the news, they drew their weapons and rushed to kill them.
Although Duan Muqing, who was obsessed with practicing, was very strong, he lacked experience and did not react until he was attacked. He didn't understand why Senior Sister Xie would attack him. Especially when he saw the other two senior brothers coming with weapons, he couldn't believe it. shouted: "You... why are you doing this?"
The two of them didn't reply at all, and directly attacked him wildly.
Duanmu Qing was already seriously injured, but despite being two joint enemies in the later stage of Shenhai, he quickly vomited blood and was captured.
"Why do you want to deal with me?" Duanmu Qing stared at the three of them sadly and asked with great anger.
"Junior Brother Duanmu, I'm sorry, we don't want to do this either, but don't worry, as long as you cooperate well, we won't hurt you!" Senior Sister Xie said with a guilty look on her face.
at this time.
Another person walked out, another true disciple of the Scarlet Flame Sect.
"You take this kid as far as you can, and I'll tell Elder Duanmu to come and save him!"
The person who came said something meaningful, turned around, and strode away.
The Sutra Pavilion is the foundation of a sect. Although being the garrison elder of the Sutra Pavilion has a heavy task, it is a very boring job.
At this moment, Elder Duanmu, who is on the second floor of the Sutra Pavilion, is studying a incomplete book of martial arts. At the same time, there is a pot of jade and two dishes of side dishes on the small table next to him. At the same time, he releases his spiritual sense from time to time, Check out the situation on the next floor.
About half an hour passed.
A rush of footsteps came towards the second floor.
Suddenly, Elder Duanmu frowned. Even the true disciples could not enter the Scripture Deposit Pavilion without permission.
So, he put down the incomplete martial arts book, stood up, and shouted to the young disciple who had rushed to the second floor: "Stop, little bastard!"
"Something's wrong with Elder Duanmu! Something's wrong with Junior Brother Duanmuqing!" The visitor shouted in panic.
"What?"
Elder Duanmu's expression suddenly changed, and he came to the disciple in a flash, grabbed his shoulders and said, "Tell me, how is Qing'er?"
A look of pain flashed across the young disciple's face, and Elder Duanmu suddenly came to his senses and quickly let go of him: "Speak quickly, don't talk nonsense!"
"Today I made an appointment with Junior Brother Duanmu to go to the back mountain to capture a strange beast. Unexpectedly, a mysterious man suddenly appeared and took Junior Brother Duanmu away. Junior Brother Wang, Junior Brother Zhou and Junior Sister Xie were following him in the back mountain, and the disciple came back Report the news and ask the elder to save people!"
"You bastard, someone actually dares to touch the only seedling of my Duanmu family!"
With a loud shout, Elder Duanmu grabbed the true disciple and shot him towards the back mountain.
Just as Elder Duanmu left, three people suddenly rushed into the Sutra Pavilion and then went straight to the second floor. At this moment, the disciples on the first floor suddenly fainted and fell to the ground.
"found it!"
The three of them rushed to the second floor of the Sutra Pavilion and rummaged around, and soon found the complete copies of "Taiyan Jue" and "Vulcan Jue".
So the three of them hurriedly left the Sutra Pavilion and rushed down the mountain. However, when passing by a bush of flowers, one of them threw two wrapped books of exercises into it.
Then it was picked up by a female disciple, who put the package into her arms and left quietly.
