Zhu Xian: The way of heaven collapses, and I only have one sword!

Chapter 64 Xiao Yicai’s identity is exposed and the Ghost King appears!
Lu Xueqi's heart skipped a beat when she heard this, and she looked up at Chen Qiye. The morning light outlined his handsome features, and in those smiling eyes, only her figure was there. Her cheeks burned hot, and she wanted to look away, but she couldn't.

Chen Qiye slowly lowered his head, his breath drawing closer. Lu Xueqi's breathing quickened with nervousness, and she subconsciously closed her eyes. His lips gently touched hers, carrying the warmth and softness unique to the early morning.

Lu Xueqi felt her head buzz, her blood boiling, and a tingling sensation she had never experienced before spread from her lips to her entire body. Her hands unconsciously grasped Chen Qiye's sleeves, her fingertips trembling slightly.

At the moment their lips touched, the world around them seemed to stop quietly. A gentle breeze rustled the leaves nearby.

Chen Qiye's kiss was gentle yet affectionate, and Lu Xueqi was lost in it. Her rapid breathing gradually became disordered, and her heartbeat became more and more violent, as if it was about to burst through her chest. Her hands, which had initially grasped his sleeves, slowly climbed up and wrapped around his neck, her fingers unconsciously entangled in his hair.

After an unknown amount of time, the two slowly separated. Lu Xueqi's eyes were slightly hazy, her cheeks flushed, and her eyes were filled with shyness and tenderness. She subconsciously bit her lower lip and said, "Qiye, this is my...first kiss..."

"It makes me feel different, and it's also very sweet." Chen Qiye said with a smile.

As soon as Chen Qiye finished speaking, Lu Xueqi's face became even hotter. She gently punched Chen Qiye's chest and said angrily, "You only know how to talk nonsense."

"Qier, let's go quickly. You slept with me in the wild all night. If your senior sisters find out, they will probably tease you again." Chen Qiye smiled and took Lu Xueqi's hand.

Lu Xueqi finally came to her senses, remembering that she hadn't returned home all night, and suddenly panicked. She hurriedly tidied up her slightly messy clothes and hair, saying as she did so, "It's all your fault. If the senior sisters found out, I wouldn't be able to face anyone."

The two of them held hands and hurried towards the cave. Along the way, Lu Xueqi was filled with anxiety and her steps became more and more hurried, while Chen Qiye followed with a smile on his face, neither hurried nor slow, and from time to time he would hold her hand tightly to give her some peace of mind.

Seeing the cave nearby, Lu Xueqi just breathed a sigh of relief and was about to sneak in when she heard Wen Min's familiar voice: "Xueqi, where have you been all night? The sisters are so worried!"

Wenmin walked out of the cave quickly, his eyes fell on the two people's clasped hands, and the mischievous smile on his face became even more intense.

Lu Xueqi's face flushed instantly. She tried to pull her hand back, but Chen Qiye held it tighter. Feeling embarrassed and anxious, she glared at Chen Qiye and whispered, "It's all your fault!"

Chen Qiye smiled calmly and bowed to Wen Min, saying, "Senior Sister Wen Min, Xueqi couldn't sleep last night, so she came out to relax and met me. We chatted for a while, and before we knew it, we stayed the whole night. I'm really sorry for making you worry."

Wen Min covered her mouth and laughed. "Junior Brother Chen, we all saw how affectionate you two were. What's there to explain? But Xueqi, don't just disappear like this next time. Everyone's been looking for you for a long time."

The female disciples from the surrounding Xiaozhu Peak also gathered around, joking with each other, and Lu Xueqi's head almost dropped to the ground.

For the next period of time, Chen Qiye stayed with Lu Xueqi almost all the time, after all, they had nowhere else to go. But it was hard for Lu Xueqi, because every time Chen Qiye came, her sisters and brothers would tease him.

The righteous sects that arrived at Liubo Mountain this time were naturally led by the three major sects: Qingyun Sect, Tianyin Temple, and Fenxiang Valley. However, there were also numerous other smaller righteous sects. Most of them were committed to upholding justice and righteousness, determined to fight the remnants of the demonic sect. Of the three major sects, aside from Taoist Cangsong and Tian Buyi from Qingyun Sect, no elders from the other two sects came. Therefore, the Qingyun Sect was implicitly placed in the driver's seat.

In the blink of an eye, Chen Qiye had been at Liubo Mountain for over half a month. During this time, the righteous sect and the demon sect continued their standoff. However, what puzzled the righteous sect was that the demon sect seemed unwilling to linger in the battle, often fighting for only a few rounds before quickly fleeing.

Liubo Mountain is very large, and it is not easy to find the lair of the Demon Cult in a short period of time. As a result, time is dragged on longer and longer.

Others didn't know, but Chen Qiye knew that the demon cult members were looking for the Kuiniu. However, facing the Kuiniu, Chen Qiye himself didn't care. After all, he had the Zhuxian Sword Formation, which could kill it in one move.

That day, Chen Qiye and Lu Xueqi also left the cave, took up their respective immortal swords, and flew towards the depths of Liubo Mountain, searching carefully along the way. Originally, Chen Qiye had not planned to explore, but when he thought of Bi Yao, he had to explore.

At this moment, disciples from various righteous sects were scattered in groups of three or five, fanning out in all directions. Chen Qiye also spotted Zhang Xiaofan from Dazhu Peak and Lin Jingyu from Longshou Peak. The three of them simply exchanged glances before flying off to their respective areas of exploration.

After exchanging a few words with Lu Xueqi, Chen Qiye flew off alone towards a forested area. If his memory served him correctly, his senior brother Xiao Yicai should have been lurking within the Demon Cult during this time. He wasn't worried about anyone else, but not Bi Yao.

With his powerful senses, Chen Qiye quickly arrived at a mountain stream. After searching, he soon found a large cave. Without stopping for long, he cast a spell to conceal his presence and walked directly into the cave.

Under the illumination of the torches, the members of the Demon Cult formed a semicircle. From afar, one could see many strange-looking individuals within the Demon Cult, including the Wild Dog Taoist, the old elder, Liu Hao, Lin Feng, and the nameless, beautiful young woman, all members of the Blood Refining Hall. Furthermore, standing behind them was a young man, none other than Chen Qiye's senior apprentice, Xiao Yicai.

Chen Qiye also listened to their conversation quietly. Under Xiao Yicai's interference, the situation was obviously out of control, and Bi Yao, as a member of the Ghost King Sect, was obviously unable to cope.

At that moment, accompanied by a loud "boom!", the entire cave shook violently, and the members of the Demon Cult almost fell to the ground. A powerful voice was heard from outside the cave: "Demon Cult villains, come out and die!" The members of the Demon Cult looked at each other in dismay. Someone exclaimed, "This place is so secret, how could those righteous people find it?"

At this moment, Xiao Yicai said loudly: "Miss Biyao, this is a critical moment. You fellow Taoists obeyed the call of the Ghost King Sect and came to Liubo Mountain, but unexpectedly encountered such a great danger. What should we do?"

When everyone heard this, they all said, "That makes sense. Miss Biyao, please say something!"

Bi Yao's face was as gloomy as water. She said, "My fellow Daoists, I don't understand why the righteous ones would know about this place. But as the Ghost King's only daughter, I am trapped here, in the same danger as you. Do you still have any doubts about the Ghost King Sect?"

As soon as these words were spoken, most people fell silent. At this moment, the tall man standing beside Bi Yao stepped forward and said in a deep voice, "Everyone, this is a critical moment. Why don't you all work together to fight this powerful enemy? As long as we work together and fight our way out, we won't necessarily be defeated by those righteous hypocrites outside!"

Everyone nodded, packed up, and rushed out. Soon, the sounds of magic weapons clashing and people cursing and roaring could be heard outside. Only Bi Yao and Xiao Yicai, disguised as Zhou Cai, remained in the cave.

Bi Yao frowned and was about to turn around to talk to the person in the shadows, but she found that Xiao Yicai did not fight like the others.

Seeing this person who repeatedly instigated the others to be hostile to the Ghost King Sect, Bi Yao had no good feelings towards him. Her face immediately darkened and she sneered, "Why are you staying here if you don't go help your fellow Taoists?"

"I just want to see whether the people from the Ghost King Sect will stand with us, or will they treat us as cannon fodder?" Xiao Yicai said with a smile.

Bi Yao's face turned cold, and she was about to retort when the man standing in the shadows said, "You are not a disciple of my Holy Sect. Who are you? Just now, that old Taoist Cangsong used the Tai Chi Xuanqing Dao to force sound into the stone, shaking the mountains, intending to establish his authority, but you..."

Seeing that he was exposed, Xiao Yicai took a step back and slowly raised his hand. A magical sword appeared in his hand. The most eye-catching thing was that there were seven bright stars on the blade of the magical sword.

"Huh? It's the Seven Star Sword!" said the man in the shadow in surprise.

While the man was in doubt, Bi Yao had already begun fighting Xiao Yicai. But Bi Yao was no match for Xiao Yicai, and the Heartbreak Flower was clearly not on the same level as the Seven Star Sword. As soon as the Heartbreak Flower returned to Bi Yao's hands, the Hehuan Bell, originally hanging from her waist, directly confronted the Seven Star Sword.

As time passed, the Hehuan Bell clearly lost some of its power. Bi Yao's cultivation level simply couldn't keep it running for long. She was about to die under the Seven Star Sword.

Chen Qiye frowned slightly and was about to take action when he saw a shadow flash across the air and a flash of blood-red light.

With a "bang", the Seven Star Sword and Xiao Yicai fell back to the ground and retreated several steps. Then there was an extra person on the scene, standing beside Bi Yao and supporting her. It was the man in the black shadow just now.

Xiao Yicai took a deep breath, feeling his blood and qi surging, his breathing becoming unusually unstable. For the first time, a solemn expression appeared on his face as he stared at the man in the field. At the same time, the Seven Star Sword flew backwards and pierced the solid rock in front of him.

Seeing that the time was almost right, Chen Qiye held Qiu Shui Wuhen, flashed in front of Xiao Yicai, stretched out his hand and pressed on his shoulder, instantly calming his surging blood.

"Junior Brother Chen, why are you here? Let's go quickly. This person is very powerful and we are no match for him!" Xiao Yicai said when he saw the person coming.

Chen Qiye nodded and looked at the middle-aged man in the room. He stood with his back to Chen Qiye and Xiao Yicai, supporting Bi Yao and speaking gently, "Yao'er, this Hehuan Bell is a divine artifact left behind by Madam Jin Ling. You're not skilled enough to use it recklessly, and it could easily backfire. Remember not to use it lightly in the future!"

Bi Yao's expression gradually returned to normal, and she whispered, "Dad, I understand." But when she saw Chen Qiye, she was stunned for a moment, but it disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Xiao Yicai looked at the man's back, smiled, and said, "Are you the Ghost King?"

The middle-aged man smiled indifferently and turned around slowly. Chen Qiye and Xiao Yicai also saw his face clearly.

Chen Qiye smiled calmly and said, "Should I call you Mr. Wan, or should I call you the Ghost King?"

The Ghost King looked at Xiao Yicai with admiration on his face. He said, "I didn't expect that besides Chen Qiye, there is a talent like you in Qingyun Sect. Not bad! It seems that old fellow Daoxuan has accepted two good disciples."
