The Young Swordsman: The Taoist Priest of Qingcheng Has Descended the Mountain

But when he dripped the tea onto a spider, a wisp of green smoke rose from the spider, and in an instant, the spider was dead.

"Brilliant! My number one poison array in the world, combined with the number one poison in the Tang Clan, this matter can be accomplished."

The old man smiled smugly.

"I heard that your patriarch is not in a good situation these days, and has been seriously injured?"

Mu Yumo's expression changed, then she sighed: "There's no need for you to worry about this, sir."

The head of the family has given instructions, so please don't worry.

He will naturally make his move when the time is right.

The old man remained noncommittal: "I hope so."

So far, their plan has encountered a minor problem, but it's just a minor one.

Everything is proceeding in an orderly manner.

"Get ready, we're going to give Lei Family Fort a big gift this time."

Zhou doesn't dislike autumn at all; each of the four seasons has its own unique charm.

Even just looking at the falling leaves, I still felt a sense of desolation.

The heroes' banquet at Lei Family Fort was held at the end of September.

Zhou Zhen clearly felt that the gears of fate had suddenly taken a step forward.

It caused him to momentarily lose his senses.

He looked up at the sky; the weather was fine, a clear autumn day with not a cloud in the sky.

"Has the critical juncture arrived?"

Zhou Zhenhuan clearly sensed that something seemed to have flown into the sky, strengthening the power of the Heavenly Dao.

Hua Jin and Li Suwang sat on small stools, each holding a radish and munching on it noisily.

"Old Li, you say he's always looking at the sky, the trees, and the flowers, but what is he actually looking at?"

Li Suwang shook his head honestly: "If I could understand it, then I would be a carefree immortal."

Hua Jin glanced at him and gave him a thumbs up.

"I think you are really wise now."

Li Suwang felt that the little girl's tone was strange when she said those words, but they did sound like compliments.

Chapter 130 Everyone is waiting for the banquet to begin.

It seems there's another person in the world who finds Zhou really strange.

Hua Jin thought that Zhou was really the strangest person in the world.

He had been clamoring to save his apprentice, but ended up saving the apprentice's sweetheart instead.

Then he returned to Kenshin Tomb, seemingly making it his home, and stayed there for almost half a month without mentioning anything about saving his disciple.

Hua Jin brought it up twice, but only received the answer that the timing wasn't right.

Later she stopped mentioning it, acting as if he were her apprentice.

Since even the master doesn't care, why should she worry about it?

Xiao Se and Lei Wujie's group had grown even larger.

Because of the addition of Luomingxuan.

"According to the map, we are not far from Lei Family Fortress."

Have you noticed that there are fewer and fewer people trying to intercept us lately?

I actually had a bad feeling.

Luo Mingxuan studied the map for a moment and sighed.

He actually felt that his luck had been really bad lately.

He was inexplicably chased and killed, and then inexplicably joined the group heading to Lei Family Fort.

It was really too dangerous for him to return alone.

To put it bluntly, Luo Mingxuan doesn't really want to die.

Lei Wujie was wiping his sword, doing so very carefully. His strength had improved rapidly through the battles along the way.

Hearing this, he said somewhat nonchalantly, "They're definitely afraid of us."

After all, we've fought so many times along the way, and we've never lost.

Lei Wujie demonstrated a few sword moves and then breathed on the sword.

Xiao Se and Sikong Qianluo glanced at him simultaneously, then sighed in unison.

This guy's temperament is truly unmatched.

They've always been this carefree.

"It's not that they're afraid of us. Although fewer people are trying to intercept us, their strength is only increasing."

Lei Family Fort is now certainly facing numerous crises.

We need to be even more careful from now on.

Xiao Se leaned lazily against a tree, his face somewhat pale.

He didn't rest during the battles along the way.

It's a bit of a shame that I've already used up all the Five Thunder Talismans my master gave me.

Otherwise, a single Five Thunder Talisman would be worth at least a city at Qianjintai.

It feels like using that on those assassins would be a complete waste of their resources.

Physical exhaustion can't compare to the heartache.

"Xiao Se is right, and logically speaking, the paper cranes we released should have already arrived in Snow Moon City."

It doesn't make sense that there hasn't been a single response after all this time.

Sikong Qianluo took out another paper crane from her purse; this was the last paper crane she had.

Lei Wujie glanced back and asked, "Could it be because our strength is too low? That's why the paper cranes can't actually fly that far?"

You should know that what Master gives us is always commensurate with our strength.

Xiao Se nodded: "That possibility cannot be ruled out, unless it was seriously blessed by Master."

Of course, there is another possibility: the paper crane flew back, but was intercepted.

After all, the spiritual essence of this thing is far less in our hands than it is in our master's.

Just then, a paper crane flew over, crooked and unsteady.

Xiao Se was slightly taken aback, then reached out and took it. The others immediately surrounded him.

"Could it be a reply from Snowmoon City?"

Luo Mingxuan was very envious of these people who had this way of sending messages.

That's more in line with the demeanor of an immortal.

"Impossible. Snow Moon City doesn't have these kinds of paper cranes. After all, Dao Sword Immortal Uncle and Snow Moon Sword Immortal must have left Snow Moon City long ago."

Xiao Se rejected Luo Mingxuan's guess, unfolded the paper crane and looked at it, a smile appearing on his face.

"It was an unintentional message."

"Wuxin? Didn't he return to Tianwaitian?"

Sikong Qianluo was somewhat surprised and moved closer to Xiao Se. Xiao Se blushed inexplicably but did not move, letting her get closer, her nose lingering on the scent emanating from her.

To be honest, it doesn't smell good.

They were being hunted down all the way; they were either fighting or on their way to fight.

The smell of sweat, mixed with the scent of a young girl, created a peculiar aroma.

Xiao Se even subconsciously took two deep breaths.

Sikong Qianluo seemed unaware, but simply leaned closer to the letter and read it intently.

"Wu Xin said that he met his master in the Western Regions, and with his master's help, he resolved the matter of the Outer Heaven and has returned."

She also mentioned that she met Senior Brother Tang Lian and Sister Ye on the road.

They were also being hunted, and Sister Ye was injured.

"What? Ruoyi is injured?"

Lei Wujie exclaimed and snatched the letter away. After glancing at it briefly, he absentmindedly handed it back to Sikong Qianluo.

He walked alone, sword in hand, to the shade of a tree, lost in thought.

Unbeknownst to them, Ye Ruoyi was injured and her condition was not very good.

Unintentionally, he blocked the pursuers, but he didn't know what happened to Ye Ruoyi and Tang Lian afterward.

"Oh, don't worry too much. Miss Ye is very lucky."

Her health wasn't very good to begin with, and she's probably gotten used to it over the years.

Luo Mingxuan originally wanted to offer some words of comfort, but after saying those words, he felt a strong killing intent.

Lei Wujie was glaring at him fiercely.

Luo Mingxuan chuckled twice: "I mean, isn't Tang Lian still around? He's always reliable, so don't worry about him."

Lei Wujie's anger did not last long before turning into deep worry.

He sighed and gripped the sword in his hand tightly.

"I hope she... and Brother Tang are safe and sound."

After saying this, he became angry again: "Don't let me catch the person behind this, otherwise, I will... I will..."

Lei Wujie argued for a long time, but didn't utter any overly harsh words.

"Who's behind it all? Isn't it clear by now?"

The people chasing us are from the Dark River, while the people chasing Miss Ye and the others are from the Tang Clan.

This is strange, though. Tang Lian also comes from the Tang Clan, so why doesn't the Tang Clan spare them either?

Luo Mingxuan's question clearly stumped Lei Wujie. The two stared at each other for a long time before letting out a sigh in unison.

Such complex problems are not suitable for them.

I just wanted to go back to attend a heroes' banquet, so why is it going so wrong?

"Alright, stop whispering. Have you rested enough?"

Let's go now that we've rested. We can't stay in one place for too long.

Wuxin is waiting for us ahead; let's go and meet him first.

Sikong Qianluo tucked the two little rabbits into her bosom, feeling somewhat sentimental. She was truly grateful to Qingfeng and Mingyue for their company along the way.

Don't underestimate these two little rabbits; when they fight, they're just as good as the adults.

Many times, if it weren't for these two little rabbits, they would probably have been seriously injured or killed.

At the end of September, the autumn wind blew with joy, and the sky was clear and bright.

The gates of Lei Family Fort slowly opened.

Bright red lanterns hung high, filling the area around the gate with a festive atmosphere, yet also a sense of tension.

The long-awaited Leimen Heroes' Banquet officially begins today.
