“Bang!”
Nangong Meijiao whipped the little ghost with a whip, splitting it into two and turning it into nothing.
“Ouch—”
Suddenly, more ferocious monsters rushed over from all directions.
Nangong Meijiao ran forward while waving the whip in her hand. The loud sound of the whip and the screams of ghosts kept assaulting her eardrums and mind.
Her spirit quickly became tired and weak, and the whip in her hand also slowed down.
But the ghosts and monsters around still seemed endless, baring their fangs, staring with scarlet eyes, waving their claws, and rushing towards her with strange cries!
On a huge rock not far away.
Two old men in grey robes were standing there, looking down at the scene below.
"Brother, this woman doesn't seem to be a disciple of our Lingxiao Sect. She should be a guest of the sect today. It would be bad to hurt her, right?"
"It's okay. She stepped into the forbidden area on her own, so we should teach her a lesson. It's clearly written on the rocks on the hillside and on the stone tablet outside the formation that this place is the forbidden area of our Lingxiao Sect. Since she ignored it, we should ignore her now."
"Brother, there is a lot of fog on the mountain today. She probably didn't see it."
"Wait another half hour. When she is exhausted and weak, take her away and send her back to her elders."
"I'm afraid she might get hurt, or her soul might be seriously damaged, and we won't be able to explain."
"What do we need to explain? We are just guarding the cell. This formation was not set by us, and we didn't invite her here. She entered the forbidden area of the Lingxiao Sect without permission, and it is her elders who should be held responsible, not us. Junior brother, don't worry, let's wait and see for a while. I just want to see the power of this formation. I went in at the beginning and never came out. I heard that everyone who goes in sees something different. I wonder what she is seeing now."
"I heard from Uncle Qiu that this formation was modified from a broken ancient formation. It is extremely powerful. Even a warrior at the level of a great martial artist would find it difficult to get out after entering it. In the end, he would be exhausted and pass out. I don't know whether it is true or not."
"Of course it's true. Otherwise, when Senior Brother Yuan and his team came to interrogate those monsters, they wouldn't have repeatedly confirmed with us whether the formation was completely closed. Only these young people are ignorant and fearless, and don't know the danger inside."
"Brother, how long do you think this girl can last?"
"I estimate that it will take at most half an hour. If she touches the most powerful ghost soldiers among them, she will probably fall down in a moment."
"Hey, brother, it seems like someone else came in!"
"Indeed, another disciple has come in. Judging from his clothes, he should be our sect's new recruit. I wonder which fellow disciple he is. Humph, the new disciples nowadays are getting bolder and bolder. Don't worry about him. After he faints, take him to the Law Enforcement Hall and let his master pick him up."
"Hey, Senior Brother, look, that guy doesn't seem to be fooled by the illusion, and he actually walked straight towards the girl."
The two men stood on the boulder and stared at it, both of them were surprised and confused.
The one who entered the formation was naturally Luo Qingzhou, who was practicing in a cave among the rocks not far away.
Not long after he got into the state, he heard the familiar sound of a whip coming from here and immediately rushed over.
When he came over to take a look, he saw that Princess Nangong was pale, as if she was crazy. She was waving the whip in her hand and whipping people everywhere. She was beating and running at the same time, looking panic-stricken.
But there was nothing around, only gusts of cold wind and hideous-looking rocks.
But he could clearly feel that the atmosphere here was not right.
Considering what the monster just said, this should be the location of the formation, and Princess Nangong must have triggered the mechanism of the formation and is now in a fantasy, or facing something that only she can see.
Luo Qingzhou did not dare to hesitate, and walked over quickly. As he approached, he shouted, "Princess, stand there and don't move!"
Nangong Meijiao's face was pale and she was sweating all over. She was facing a dense crowd of ferocious monsters in the dark. The more she fought, the more monsters there were, and they seemed to be getting stronger. She felt a little desperate, but at this moment, she suddenly heard a familiar voice coming from a distant place.
The voice seemed to be in the sky, and also seemed to sound in my mind.
She looked around but could see nothing but terrible darkness and surging monsters.
“Bang!”
She raised the whip and lashed at a ghost fiercely. Thinking that she was going to die here, her heart ached and she cried, "Chu Feiyang, you bastard, even if I become a ghost, I will pester you!"
Unexpectedly, just as she finished speaking, a figure suddenly appeared beside her, hugged her and said, "Princess, why are you pestering me?"
Nangong Meijiao froze for a moment, stared at him for a few seconds, and suddenly whipped him with a whip, angrily saying: "Illusion! You are a little devil, don't touch me!"
Luo Qingzhou grabbed her whip, put his arm around her slender waist, leaped onto a rock nearby, and then punched out with a "bang"!
“Sizzle!”
A flash of lightning flashed across!
The darkness in front of Nangong Meijiao's eyes was suddenly illuminated, and the ferocious little ghosts around her disappeared in an instant!
It was as if the sun broke through the darkness and instantly illuminated the whole world!
Nangong Meijiao was shaken so hard that she couldn't open her eyes, but she could clearly feel the arm around her slender waist. How familiar and warm it was.
At the same time, the atmosphere around her was so familiar and exciting to her.
"Princess, open your eyes and look, am I a ghost or a human?"
Luo Qingzhou held her and stood on the rock, looking at her pretty face with sweat stains from the side, and asked in a teasing tone.
But the next second, he suddenly froze.
Nangong Meijiao grabbed his vital point, then slowly opened her eyes, looked at him and said, "This princess doesn't need to open her eyes to know whether you are a human or a ghost."
Luo Qingzhou: “…”
Nangong Meijiao looked at his ordinary yet bright face in the sun, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, her eyes full of smiles.
She was sweating profusely, breathing rapidly, her chest rising and falling violently, and she was already exhausted. At this moment, her body softened and she leaned against his arms, her cheek against his chest, and whispered: "Chu Feiyang, you saved me again. I have no way to repay you, so I can only..."
"Princess, you don't have to pledge yourself to me!"
Luo Qingzhou quickly interrupted her.
Nangong Meijiao raised her hair which was wet with sweat, and said with her charming little face: "Chu Feiyang, how can one be so shameless and so self-indulgent? When did this princess say that she would repay you with her body? This princess said that she would repay you with her hand."
As he spoke, he moved a few times.
Luo Qingzhou's whole body stiffened and he said, "Princess, no need..."
Nangong Meijiao suddenly said, "Oh, I almost forgot that Master Chu doesn't like hands. Master Chu likes feet... Master Chu, would you like to kneel on the ground and help me take off my shoes and socks? I will repay you well."
Luo Qingzhou quickly leaned over to her ear and whispered, "Princess, someone is watching us. They seem to be guarding the formation. Let's get out of here quickly."
Nangong Meijiao narrowed her eyes, turned her head, looked around, but saw no one.
But she knew that she had just entered the formation by mistake and must have alarmed the people of Lingxiao Sect.
She tightened her fingers around his vital points and said, "Chu Feiyang, then tell me why you came to save me, and I will let you go."
Luo Qingzhou was about to answer when she added, "I'll only give you one chance. If you answer wrong, or if your answer does not satisfy me, you should know the consequences."
Luo Qingzhou hesitated for a moment, then said to her watery eyes, "Because the princess is beautiful and has a good figure, I can't bear to see her get hurt."
Women all like to be praised for their beauty, no matter how beautiful they are, so even if the answer is wrong, the other person will definitely be happy.
If the other party is happy, he will naturally not make things too difficult for him.
Nangong Meijiao narrowed her eyes and said, "This answer does not satisfy me."
Luo Qingzhou's heart tightened, and when he was about to give the absolutely correct answer about the second fatal blow, Nangong Meijiao suddenly let go of him and said, "But it's still acceptable, so-so. So, I'll let you go."
Luo Qingzhou breathed a sigh of relief and said nothing more. He glanced at the huge rock not far away, hugged her, jumped down, and then quickly left.
Although he didn't see anything on the huge rock, he could clearly feel the fluctuation of breath there.
Someone is standing there.
His soul is now in the late stage of the Spirit Refining Realm, so this fluctuation cannot be hidden from him.
If he could leave his body or use his soul power, perhaps he would be able to see clearly.
But there is no need for that.
He didn't want to reveal too much just yet.
After the two men walked away, two figures in gray robes appeared on the huge rock.
"Brother, who is that kid? He actually ignored the formation and came and went freely. He even broke the illusion in front of the woman with one punch. This formation was repaired by Uncle Yuan and his team after several years of hard work from the broken ancient formation."
One of the older men, who was shorter in stature, had an incredible expression on his face, and he was still looking with uncertainty at the figure in the distance that had already gone away and was hazy in the fog.
Another taller old man next to him also had a look of surprise and confusion on his face: "There is one more thing you didn't say. That kid seemed to have discovered us just now. With our concealment skills and the formation we are in, even a great martial artist would never be able to detect us."
"Brother, what should we do? This matter must be reported to the sect. Perhaps there is something wrong with the formation."
"It's impossible that there's something wrong with the formation. That kid is obviously extraordinary. Since he's a new disciple coming up the mountain this time, it's definitely a good thing for our sect to be thankful for."
"Brother, what do you think we should do?"
"Humph, with this kid's ability, it's more than enough for him to enter the inner gate. There's no need for a competition this time. His punch just now seemed to be an ordinary thunder fist, but it produced lightning. Tsk tsk, and judging from the power of his punch just now, he should have broken through to the late martial artist stage, but he didn't. That means he can now fight above his level. He has hidden talents and unlimited potential. Junior brother, don't tell anyone else yet. I'll go to Beiwang Peak to inform Master. Such a good seedling naturally can't be given away to other peaks. Maybe Master will take him in as his personal disciple after seeing him..."
"Okay, go ahead, brother. I'll go see which branch he's from. Later..."
"What's wrong?"
The conversation between the two suddenly stopped.
On a huge rock nearby, a woman suddenly appeared silently, looking at them with cold eyes.
"Ling... Junior Sister Linghu, when did you come?"
The two men smiled awkwardly, seeming to be somewhat afraid of the woman in front of them.
The woman was dressed in green, tall, and looked to be only about twenty years old. A wooden hairpin was simply inserted in her loose hair, and a green bell hung around her slender waist. It seemed as if two sword shadows were circling deep in her cold eyes.
She stared at the two of them for a while, then said calmly, "I want the person. If anyone wants to snatch him from me, go find me at Jianfeng."
After saying this, the figure flashed and disappeared.
The two men stood on the rock, looking at each other.
