All the way up, messy blood stains that had long since dried could be seen everywhere.
Some of the steps and surrounding scenes were also damaged.
Chu Liuyue looked at them one by one, and her mood became heavier and heavier.
But Ye Ranran was obviously used to it and didn't take it to heart.
Chu Liuyue couldn't help but ask:
"Ran Ran, how long have you been in Chongxu Pavilion?"
Ye Ranran thought for a while:
"It's been more than two years, right? But before that, I mostly went out to practice with my master and rarely came back. After the accident at Chongxu Pavilion a year ago, my master and I stayed in Qingyuan Mountain."
"Your master is-"
"Ah, my master is Elder Xia Yi, and he is also one of the four elders of Chongxu Pavilion. But the other three elders are all responsible for many things in Chongxu Pavilion now."
When Ye Ranran mentioned this matter, a trace of sadness flashed across his face.
The other elders are also very good people, but it's a pity.
Chu Liuyue pursed her lips.
Of the four elders, only Elder Xia Yi is left.
No wonder everyone is not optimistic about Chongxuge.
Without the strong man in charge, today's Chongxu Pavilion will naturally not be comparable to the past.
I heard that Yu Chisong was also seriously injured and has not recovered yet.
When she was with Yu Chisong before, she vaguely noticed something was wrong with his body, but she didn't ask in detail.
This is true for the Pavilion Master and the four elders, not to mention other people.
"Ran Ran? You are here!"
When they were halfway up the mountain, a young man appeared in the sight of several people.
Ye Ranran looked up and waved happily:
"Senior Brother Lu! Why are you here?"
Lu Zhiyao's eyes swept across the bodies of Chu Liuyue and Qiang Wanzhou, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"The Pavilion Master asked me to pick you up! These two must be the two junior sisters and junior brothers who won the first and second place in the Wanzheng Conference! Please come quickly! The Pavilion Master, elders and fellow disciples are waiting for you!
Facing the particularly enthusiastic Lu Zhiyao, Chu Liuyue's brows jumped.
Even if it's just to express welcome, it's really a bit awkward to come halfway up the mountain to pick someone up.
Also, did he just say that the entire Chongxu Pavilion was waiting for them
Is it because of the two of them
At this time, Chu Liuyue naturally did not know that since that incident happened more than a year ago, there had been no new disciples entering Chongxu Pavilion.
Now there is suddenly a junior brother and a junior sister, and they are also very powerful. The whole Chongxu Pavilion is inevitably excited.
This task of picking up people was something he managed to get with great difficulty!
"Junior sister, junior brother, your residence on the mountain has been packed out a long time ago! I heard from the pavilion master that you have already found a house in Xiling City, but you are still welcome to live in the mountain for a while!"
"We at Chongxu Pavilion are not so rigid. We have always been very free in this regard! You can go up or down the mountain as you like! Just pay attention to safety!"
"By the way, some medicinal materials have been raised on the mountain recently. I heard that my junior sister is also a heavenly doctor, right? If you want to make elixirs in the future and you need any medicinal materials, just come to us!"
Lu Zhiyao was chattering while looking at the faces of Chu Liuyue and Qiang Wanzhou, as if he was afraid that they would be unhappy.
Chu Liuyue didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
She had met Lu Zhiyao twice before, and he was also a disciple of Elder Xia Yi.
At that time, I only thought that he was restrained and polite and had good talents, but I never knew that he was also a talkative person.
However, in Chongxu Pavilion now, even Yu Chisong, who is the master of the pavilion, has to sell things in person to raise money, let alone the people below.
Lu Zhiyao can say this, which shows that he is really happy for the two of them to come.
Ye Ranran was listening by the side, not feeling irritated at all. Instead, she kept talking along with her, occasionally expressing her own opinions.
In short, to sum up in one sentence, after learning that Chu Liuyue and Qiang Wanzhou chose Chongxu Pavilion, the entire Chongxu Pavilion took action just to satisfy the two of them.
Is it possible that you are still afraid that the two of them will run away
Chu Liuyue followed them up and responded.
Qiang Wanzhou was straightforward and didn't say much from beginning to end.
Lu Zhiyao thought to himself: This junior sister is kind and kind, always has a smile on her face, and seems easy to get along with. Although the junior junior brother is a bit aloof, he seems to listen to what he says.
Looking at it this way, it’s not bad!
On the way, Chu Liuyue chatted with the two of them intentionally or unintentionally, and got a lot of news.
When he was about to reach the top of the mountain, Lu Zhiyao suddenly shouted to the top:
"Junior sister and junior brother are here!"
His voice was so powerful that it echoed throughout the mountain!
The corners of Chu Liuyue's mouth twitched fiercely, and an ominous premonition filled her heart.
Sure enough, the next moment, a group of people suddenly appeared in front of them!
At a glance, there were dozens of people at least!
"Junior sister! Junior brother! You are finally here! We have been waiting all morning!"
"That's right! Hey, give in, I can't see them anymore!"
"Who told you to run slowly!"
Lu Zhiyao shouted again: "Calm down, all of you! Don't scare the junior brother and junior sister!"
Chu Liuyue: "."
Qiang Wanzhou: "."
Chu Liuyue couldn't help but look up at the sky.
They came here early in the morning. It's actually still morning now, so why have they been waiting all morning
Also, what kind of rare objects are these two? Why do so many people come
I thought I was just going up the mountain to worship a teacher, but I didn’t expect—
"Come on, the Pavilion Master and the others are already waiting for you!"
Lu Zhiyao urged with excitement on his face.
Qiang Wanzhou finally couldn't help but whispered:
"You didn't choose Chongxu Pavilion because of these, right?"
Chu Liuyue glanced at him with murderous intent.
Qiang Wanzhou resigned and closed his mouth.
Later, under the warm introductions of Lu Zhiyao and Ye Ranran, Chu Liuyue and the other two said hello to many "senior brothers and sisters" in Chongxu Pavilion.
After they finally broke through the siege and came out, fine beads of sweat appeared on Chu Liuyue's forehead.
"Fortunately, no more people came, otherwise it would have taken a whole day just to recognize them." Chu Liuyue murmured.
Lu Zhiyao, who was leading the way, suddenly stopped and looked back at her with a complicated expression.
"Little Junior Sister, in fact, those just now are almost all the remaining disciples of Chongxu Pavilion."
Chu Liuyue was shocked and looked at Lu Zhiyao in disbelief.
"What"
There used to be six to seven hundred disciples in Chongxu Pavilion!
Why are there only so many left now
Lu Zhiyao saw her so shocked and said quickly:
"Actually, there are still some who are outside and have not returned. I will introduce them to you later."
Chu Liuyue asked:
"I dare to ask Senior Brother Lu, how many disciples are left in the entire Chongxu Pavilion now?"
Lu Zhiyao sighed.
"About a hundred or so."
Chu Liuyue gasped:
"That time more than a year ago, the casualties were so heavy?!"
