Fu Mingxi left Jiuyao Mountain before the Chinese New Year. I heard that Fu Shangqing had already made arrangements in Dongyue, and even prepared a marriage for her.
As for Zhou Jingcheng, there is no news about it, maybe he was taken back to Zhou's family to recuperate? Even if his cultivation base has dropped a lot, at least he has left a sigh of relief, and he can still be used as half a trance in the future.
After this incident, the Zhou family's prestige was greatly damaged, but the entire Jiuyao Palace was surprisingly peaceful. But in this calm, there seems to be a turbulent undercurrent lurking.
This is how the Goddess Festival came.
Just in time for the New Year, Jiuyao Palace is decorated with lanterns and festoons.
Because she was going to participate in the Goddess Festival on New Year's Eve, Hui Niang prepared the New Year's Eve dinner on the twenty-ninth day.
After the reunion dinner and putting on new clothes, Lu Mingshu pushed Master to watch the fireworks in the valley.
At her request, Mr. Hui tried his best to maintain Liu Jizhen's meridians. In the past few days, Mr. Hui was administering needles to him, and his legs were covered with fine needle holes, so he could not walk for the time being.
The master and apprentice watched silently as the fireworks exploded over the main palace.
"Master, do you still remember the first New Year we spent together?" Lu Mingshu suddenly said.
"... Mmm." Liu Jizhen replied softly.
"I said at that time that you should practice martial arts well and never let others bully you."
Recalling the situation at that time, Liu Jizhen slowly smiled: "You did it."
"I also said that I won't let others bully you in the future."
Liu Ji really wanted to laugh, but there was water in his eyes.
That was fifteen years ago, and this child has never forgotten the oath he made back then.
"You did too."
"No." Lu Mingshu turned his head and looked at him seriously, "I haven't done it yet, but I will do it soon."
…
Early the next morning, Lu Mingshu took off his beaming new clothes, changed into his normal clothes, carefully wrapped his wrist guards, and put on a thin close-fitting armor underneath.
Since she has chosen to show her strength, she is ready, and today will be a hard fight.
Zhou Miaoru would not let go of this opportunity, and neither would the elders who were envious of her secret techniques and property.
The sword at Jingyiyuan made them realize clearly that it would be difficult to kill her. This will only make Zhou Miao make up her mind to get rid of her at any cost.
So in this battle, either she will die, or she will be wiped out, and she will never be able to avenge her. Either she wins and uproots the power of the Zhou family to comfort the souls of her loved ones in heaven.
"Miss." Hui Niang felt the chill on her body, her eyes showed worry.
"It's okay." She said, "Wait for me to come back."
She will definitely be back!
Xiao Dai seemed to feel the dignified atmosphere, raised his head and let out a long hiss, and flapped his wings.
The snow-white wings were raised high, and all four hooves rushed together, stepping on the clouds and leaving.
When she stopped at the most precipitous Langhua Peak in Jiuyao Palace, there were already more than a dozen trance-level elders standing at Yuntai Tianmen.
The Goddess Sacrifice is the most important event in Jiuyao Palace. Whenever this time comes, even the elders who have traveled abroad will rush back in time.
Seeing her approaching, all the elders cast their eyes with different meanings. Nodding and smiling to show friendliness, some looking straight ahead as if they didn't see it, and some snorting coldly, showing extreme disdain.
Lu Mingshu took it off his back from a young age, put it into the spirit container, and bowed to salute: "Disciple Lu Mingshu, I have met the elder Wan Yu, and all the masters and uncles."
She is the first among sixteen generations of disciples to enter trance, and everyone present is her elders.
Usually, most of the ecstasies seen in the sect are from the fifteenth generation of uncles, but today, there are many from the ancestors of the masters, and even the ancestors of the grand masters.
Elder Wan Yu, the Supreme Elder, looked to be in his early thirties, with black hair like ink, and a well-proportioned appearance, showing no signs of dying.
In the realm of transformation, you are not afraid of the aging of your body, and you can do whatever you want. There are Grand Elders like Yuanxi who maintain the appearance of old people, and there are those who look like young people like Zhuo Jiangui, but most of them are like Elder Wan Yu who maintain the appearance of adults.
He fixed his eyes on Lu Mingshu for a while, then nodded and said, "I heard that there is another genius disciple from the rising sun lineage. Seeing him now, it's really true."
"Don't dare." Lu Mingshu's expression was indifferent, and he was not at all pleased, "I just do my best."
Elder Wan Yu heard the words, smiled reservedly, and pointed: "Wait a while, we will start when everyone is here."
"Yes."
Lu Mingshu had expected Elder Wan Yu's lukewarm attitude.
An Tongchen specifically mentioned to her that the Supreme Elder Yuan Xi cared a lot for the young disciples, and basically remained neutral in the sect disputes, but the Supreme Elder Wan Yu was more biased.
That's right, if it wasn't for the bias of an elder of Huawujing, how could the Zhou family have dared to be so arrogant all these years
However, Lu Mingshu believed that even if he had a bias, the Supreme Elder Wan Yu would not have the face to attack the junior, so she didn't need to be afraid of him.
No one dares to be late for such a big event. Before the time came, almost all the trances in Jiuyao Palace had come, except for a few who couldn't make it back outside or were injured.
An Tongchen didn't come. He originally intended to come in to help her, but was persuaded by Lu Mingshu to retreat.
His injury is rather troublesome. If he takes good care of him, he can roughly recover in one or two years, but if he does something during this period, it may take five or six years. How precious time is to a warrior, there is no need to drag him so far.
What's more, this is her battle, she must defeat it with her own hands!
When the time came, Fu Shangqing stepped forward and took out the master card amulet: "Elder Taishang, you can start."
Elder Wan Yu nodded and stepped forward: "Let's get started."
Fu Shangqing let out a drink, and threw out the master talisman. Quickly drew out a strand of profound energy from the card talisman, and struck forward. Elder Wan Yu pushed out a palm, and the surging profound power surged out instantly, turning into a brilliant profound light.
In the mysterious light, the foreground became more and more blurred, suddenly changed, and a secret passage appeared on the side of the cliff.
Elder Wan Yu let out a breath and withdrew his palm. The master card talisman hangs in the air, supporting the secret passage.
"Disciples!" Elder Wan Yu turned around and shouted, "The Goddess Ruins has been opened, you go in. Remember, only the first three people can enter the trace."
"Yes." All the elders agreed in unison.
Afterwards, the crowd split up, some accompanied by two or three people, some went alone, and entered the secret passage one after another.
Lu Mingshu walked last. She is the youngest and the youngest, so it is not easy to compete with the elders.
When she entered, Master Yuwen was right in front of her and whispered: "Be careful of the trap."
Lu Mingshu nodded slightly, his eyes flashed. If you want to kill her, there are only a few methods, such as setting a trap in advance, and encircling her with several people. Encirclement is fine, if it's a trap...it would be impossible to open the secret passage in advance without the cooperation of the elder Wan Yu. Master Yuwen got the secret news, so remind her
It seems that the situation is not good for her.
