The villain killed the master. What? I am the master!

The Hengfeng Forest, stained by the bloody setting sun, stretches for three thousand miles, and the miasma among the towering ancient trees lingers all year round.

This vast and desolate land that stretches across the Zhuming and Qingyang regions is the only land border between the Seven Kingdoms of Cangping and the Zhuming Immortal Realm.

The vast East China Sea is like a natural moat that completely separates the two regions. Only scattered islands can be seen. The most dazzling pearl among them is the Twelve Islands in the East China Sea where Cangping City is located.

In the past, because the Hengfeng Forest involved two regions, both the Zhuming Immortal Sect and the Qingyang Immortal Sect adopted a laissez-faire attitude towards this area, lacking management and designating it as a buffer zone between the two forces.

This caused the monsters in the forest to spread, silently taking root and sprouting in the Hengfeng Forest. There were even ancient beasts from the Age of Immortals sleeping here.

After the fall of Zhu Ming Xian Zong, the monsters here have become powerful and difficult to deal with.

The Qin family of the East China Sea has wanted to completely conquer this forest since five hundred years ago. The three thousand black-armored guards raised by the family have cut down the forest three times.

The most tragic incident occurred sixty years ago, when Qin Hong, the current head of the Qin family, took the clan's spiritual treasure Luo Tianyi deep into the demon realm, but awakened an ancient beast that had reached the perfection of the golden elixir, triggering a demon tide.

Several Jindan elders were killed in the battle, and only one in ten of the Xuanjia Guards survived. Even the head of the family, Qin Hong, was seriously injured. He was secluded in seclusion for twenty years and was finally killed by someone who took advantage of the opportunity.

From the group of people from the Demon Slaying Hall, only Mu Shuyi and Xi Rujian were left.

"How could this happen... How could this happen! We have clearly arrived at Hengfeng Forest, the Qin family is very close, and Elder Zhang has already arrived in Cangzhou, but at this time, Liu Qifeng actually caught up with us..."

The evil spirits surged in the forest, and Mu Shuyi staggered and held onto the charred tree trunk. Her robes were torn, and her left arm hung unnaturally, with blood dripping from her fingertips into the mud.

"The Sky-Changing Mirror can be used once more."

Xi Rujian held the dull bronze mirror, with a few more strands of white hair on his temples. If it weren't for the help of the Heaven-Changing Mirror, they would have been captured and killed by Liu Qifeng long ago. He looked calm and comforted the beautiful woman.
"The Hengfeng Forest is densely populated with monsters. Old Demon Liu is not like us. He has no way to avoid monsters. He will definitely be hindered... Madam, I will definitely protect you back to the sect!"

Mu Shuyi's beautiful eyes were filled with tears, and she choked up and said, "Nannan's whereabouts are unknown, and we don't know whether she is alive or dead. Even if she survives and goes back, what's the difference between that and death?"

Xi Ru gradually looked haggard and sighed.

His priority was undoubtedly to protect Mu Shuyi's safety. As for his two disciples, Chen Ge and Qiao Qiao, he was powerless:

"Ye Ge is protecting them, madam, don't worry."

"Oh! You're lying! You clearly let Nannan and the others be bait to lure Liu Qifeng away!"

Mu Shuyi realized it belatedly and regretted that her mind was blank at that time and she failed to realize Xi Rujian's purpose.

Although the true soul is protected by the Longevity Lamp, Nannan's current condition is not right and she cannot be recalled by the Longevity Lamp at all.

What's more, the eternal lamp has corresponding incredible effects, and also has serious consequences. Not only will one lose one's cultivation, but one's lifespan will also be greatly shortened.

For example, Mu Shuyi is currently in the late stage of foundation building and is only in her early thirties. With the resources of the Immortal Sect, she will sooner or later achieve the Golden Elixir and live for 500 years.

But if she died at this moment and was reborn in the Longevity Lamp, she was afraid that she would never have the chance to condense an elixir in her lifetime, and her life span would be only a mere hundred years.

However, the rebirth of the Longevity Lamp is still coveted by cultivators all over the world. After all, a good death is not as good as a miserable life.

Mu Shuyi leaned against the roots of the ancient banyan tree, her pale fingertips tightly grasping the jade slip of communication.

The surface of the jade slip was covered with cracks. This was her third attempt to contact Ye Ge, but there was still no response.

"boom--"

In the distance came the sound of trees exploding, startling countless monster birds and sending them flying.

A group of people came running towards them, stepping on a giant elephant and trampling over lush trees.

The Taoist's playful laughter was like an owl in the night:
"Master Xi still refuses to hand over the Heaven-Changing Mirror? Even the Yuanying Master covets this fourth-tier spiritual treasure. How can a Yuandan cultivator like you possess this treasure?"

"Liu Qishan!"

Xi Rujian felt like he was facing a formidable enemy. This was Liu Qifeng's younger brother, who had reached the Yuandan realm and was one of the two guardians who came with Liu Qifeng.

Another guardian was killed by him using the Huantian Mirror not long ago.

Liu Qishan sneered, his face gloomy, suppressing his anger.

He kept a certain distance cautiously. Before this, Xi Rujian had used the Heaven-Changing Realm to kill another guardian, Liu Qiyue, whose cultivation level was almost the same as his.

At this moment, he was also afraid of Xi Rujian, wondering whether he could still use the Huantian Mirror.

"Not good... He is waiting for Liu Qifeng!"

Xi Rujian's face changed and he moved his fingers, but in the end he did not use the Huantian Mirror. This last chance was left to Liu Qifeng.

His eyes turned fierce, he made some hand gestures, and the shadow of the Heavenly Lotus in his dantian slowly blossomed.

The lotus petals shone with the moonlight, forming a barrier around Mu Shuyi, and then she rushed forward and took the initiative to attack!
"The goddess weeps!"

Xi Rujian spoke the truth, and thousands of silver threads burst out from the lotus core and entangled with him.

"How brave!"

Liu Qishan laughed grimly, and the giant elephant under his feet neighed, raised its heavy hooves, and trampled fiercely at Xi Rujian.

He then flipped over and leaped forward, offering up a bronze ghost mask.

The ghost face rapidly enlarged, and the fangs in it bit towards Xi Rujian.

"laugh--"

The fangs bit the silver threads into pieces, and the ghost face chewed the silver threads greedily, and his arrogance became more and more intense.

"Is this... the power of devouring?"

Xi Rujian suffered backlash and blood flowed from his lips.

The Devouring Divine Power belongs to the Liu family's distant ancestor, who gained it from Taotie. It is extremely powerful, and is especially good at fighting. It is far beyond the reach of his Tiannv Lian.

"Humph! Let's see how you can escape!"

Liu Qishan was in a dominant position and was very ruthless. Seeing that he had not used the Heaven-Huanting Mirror, he relaxed a little.

Then he swung his wide robe, and a small flying sword suddenly pierced towards Xi Rujian's soul between his eyebrows.

He thought to himself: Xi Rujian was indeed seriously injured, and he was able to easily break his magic.

The clouds were as dark as ink, miasma was surging in the deep wind forest, and the mournful cries of evil birds tore through the deathly silence.

The fight between the two became more intense.

Xi Rujian's robe had been soaked in blood, and the shadow of the Heavenly Maiden Lotus was crumbling. He was too impatient and wanted to end the battle quickly, but he failed again and again.

The giant elephant at the foot of Liuqi Mountain was raising its stone-pillar-like hooves and stepping towards Mu Shuyi's barrier!

Mu Shuyi's face turned pale, and Xi Rujian could no longer care about anything else. Just as he was about to control the Heaven-Changing Realm -

"Qiang!"

The clear sound of a sword exploded from the sky, and a nearly distorted sword light split the miasma and fell to the ground like a meteor.

The giant elephant let out a mournful howl, and its hooves were broken off at the root, splattering blood like rain.

Liu Qishan retreated in horror, but saw that the sword's force was still there and it cut the hundred-foot-tall ancient tree behind him in half.

“Jiang He?!”

Xi Rujian's pupils suddenly shrank. This... is this the sword energy of the foundation-building cultivator Jiang He? It wasn't the silver-haired girl who made the move? ? !
Ripples spread out in the void, and Jiang He stood with his sword on his feet, his robe fluttering, looking heroic and majestic.

The black-haired girl behind him made hand gestures, and her soul light poured down like moonlight, covering her face.

The golden-haired Sky-Bearing Ape revealed its true form.

The silver-haired girl was riding on the shoulder of the immovable ape, with golden light flashing from her fingertips, piercing the head of the wailing giant elephant.

"A cultivator from the Liu family?"

Jiang He quietly put away the magic sword. The killing power of the magic sword was indeed unmatched. He had not even sacrificed it yet, but the sword light was so strong.

The reactions of the people present were different and their expressions were wonderful.

Mu Shuyi was feeling completely hopeless, but the sudden sword light shattered the darkness in her eyes.

The beautiful woman looked at the man with the sword steadily. For the first time, she felt that this scoundrel seemed to have some heroic spirit. Then, she turned her head away and cursed, "This... scoundrel..."

Liu Qishan's face turned pale and his heart bled as he looked at the dead giant elephant.

This is a demon elephant in the Nascent Soul Realm, with strong vitality.

But when facing them, why are we like clay sculptures?

"Since you know that I am from the Liu family, you guys should get out of here if you know what's best for you! These two people were hunted down and killed by the Dharma King Liu. Do you want to disobey the Dharma King?"

Liu Qishan recalled Ghost Face and took a half step back, but he looked a little fierce but weak.

Damn...

This man seemed to be at the Nascent Soul stage, but the sword he swung casually had the aura of a peak Yuandan master.

The two girls behind him, one with black hair and the other with silver hair, also made him feel frightened.

What’s more, there is also a Yuandan Demon Ape!
"I came here precisely to kill King Liu. You want me to back off?" Jiang He chuckled.

The man did not move, but the silver-haired girl on the demon ape's shoulder jumped up.

"Zheng!"

In the dazzling golden light, the killing magic treasure soared into the sky.

The silver-haired girl's eyes turned red: "Master, let Min Xin come!"

This girl hadn't killed for a long time, and it was a rare occasion for her to meet a Yuandan Zhenren. She was so excited to see the prey that she even forgot about her disguise.

"You dare!"

Liu Qishan was furious. No matter how extraordinary this girl was, she was only a Ningdan Zhenren after all. How could she dare to challenge him!

The bronze ghost mask swelled in the wind, and its fangs turned into white bone swords and bit towards Bai Minxin.

The spiritual power attached to the bone sword actually sucked the surroundings into a vacuum. The strands of sword energy not only failed to stop the ghost face, but instead boosted its power!

Jiang He narrowed his eyes and thought to himself, "Is this the magical power of Yuan Dan Zhenren... Unfortunately, Min Xin's method of breaking it is even more unsolvable."

"Boom!"

The golden light carried the sword intent, and the bone sword broke into pieces.

Liu Qishan screamed, spitting blood and plowing towards the vast forest behind him, causing large tracts of trees to fall down.

What secret method is this?
His Liu family's Reversal of Fortune Art turned out to be ineffective...

Moreover, her spiritual magic is so terrifying!
Liu Qishan's face was ferocious. When his hand brushed across his face, blood gushed out. Blood gushed out of his five orifices.

And this was naturally Jiang Yuanxia's secret move.

"Om-"

A faint light flashed in the black-haired girl's eyes, and the soul threads on her fingertips spread out like a spider web, and her powerful soul wrapped around Liu Qishan.

"what!"

Yuandan Zhenren, who had just stood firm, had his blood vessels burst, and he was howling miserably, his breath weak.

At this time, the man who stood motionless behind the two girls drew out his second sword.

The Yuehua Sword flew over and instantly pierced through Liu Qishan's brow. The light in his eyes suddenly went out, and his true spirit dissipated, being completely swallowed up by the Xuanhuang Pearl.

Jiang He sheathed his sword, frowned and looked towards the east: "Yuan Xia, there is a more troublesome aura."

"It's Liu Qifeng." Jiang Yuanxia closed his eyes and sensed, with a cold look on his lips. "He is rushing here using the Blood Escape Technique, but he has awakened an ancient beast. It will break free in half an incense stick at most..."

Liu Qifeng is a real person in the Taidan realm. His aura is so strong that it is easy to wake up the sleeping ancient beast in Hengfenglin.

This is also the reason why Xi Rujian fled to Hengfeng Forest.

"That's enough." Jiang He turned around and threw a bottle of healing pills to Xi Rujian, "Take Madam Mu away first."

Xi Rujian, who was usually calm, was a little dazed and took the pill in a panic.

He never thought that Jiang He, who was no different from an ordinary cultivator in Shangqing County, would be so powerful today.

Mu Shuyi hurried forward, tightly grasped his sleeve, tears welling in her eyes: "Please... please save Nannan! Her soul is in a strange state, and the longevity lamp cannot bring her back..."

She didn't care about the shame she had suffered in front of Jiang He in the past, and pleaded sadly, revealing her rare feminine weakness.

It seems that if Jiang He takes action, he can also rescue her daughter?
Jiang He frowned and looked around.

Sure enough, his little doll and Chen Ge and others disappeared.

But now is not the time to look for them.

Jiang He smiled gently: "Madam, do you know that asking for help requires compensation? Let's not talk about this for now, let's go first..."

The beautiful woman's pupils gradually dilated, and her delicate face, with tears in her eyes, became a little stiff.

She subconsciously withdrew her hand, her fingertips trembling slightly.

After half a stick of incense.

Liu Qifeng came galloping on the monstrous blood wave, and the pressure from the Taidan realm crushed the ancient trees. The monsters within a ten-mile radius wailed and twitched on the ground.

His sinister eyes swept across the pile of ashes on the ground, and the spiritual power in his body suddenly became violent: "You killed my brother, today I will use your soul to refine the lamp!"

Damn it! Even his brother's body was refined into ashes!
His spiritual sense spread over a radius of a hundred miles, but he could not detect any trace of the murderer.

Liu Qifeng clenched his fists so tightly that he almost drew blood.

Could it be that the cultivators from the Demon-Slaying Hall managed to escape?
"Wu Xiang, I came here to transmit the message. What's the matter?"

Liu Qifeng's ears twitched slightly, his face looked displeased, and his tone was very impolite.

His relationship with Wuxiang Zhenren was really average, especially after his brother's death, he had no interest in talking to Wuxiang Zhenren.

I don’t know what Master Wuxiang said.

Liu Qifeng listened attentively, his face becoming increasingly gloomy.

……

In Hengfeng Forest, the group moved away from the battlefield and came to a hidden valley.

The Boundary-Breaking Boat was parked in the valley.

Xi Rujian couldn't help but take another look, his expression looking a little strange.

This... this Boundary-Breaking Boat seemed to be made by him for Tang Ge, so that Tang Ge could use it to send Zhao'an's disciples back to the Immortal Sect.

Now, how did it fall into Jiang He's hands?

Thinking of Jiang He's power just now, Xi Rujian pretended to be calm and bowed:
"Fellow Daoist Jiang's spiritual boat is truly mysterious and natural. I wonder where he bought it from?"

Jiang He smiled happily:
"Master Xi, you are joking. This spiritual boat is called the Boundary Breaking Boat. Once a thief tried to plot against me, but I took the boat away from him. The thief was just an ordinary person, so it is a pleasant surprise that he has such a magical boat."

Xi Rujian couldn't help but twitch the corners of his lips.

He actually openly said that this boat was the Boundary Breaking Boat...

It seems that Tang Ge and other disciples have been killed by Jiang He.

But now the situation is different. He exclaimed: "Daoyou Jiang is really lucky and blessed! This is a gift from heaven, and it should be used by Daoyou."

Jiang He raised his eyebrows and understood what Xi Rujian meant. He was planning to pretend to be confused and let the matter go.

In this case, he no longer has to worry about the Boundary Breaking Boat being exposed to the eyes of the Qingyang Immortal Sect's cultivators.

"Master Xi, you are joking. By the way, where is Madam Mu? I still need to discuss with her...how to rescue the daughter of the Qiao family." Jiang He smiled enthusiastically. (End of this chapter)
