I traveled through time with my best friend.

"Ahem..." Bai Fan raised his old eyes and looked at Ling'er, "What did you just say outside?"

"Someone held Bai Sheng hostage and saved Jiang Xue."

When Bai Fan heard this, he immediately threw off the quilt and got out of bed. As soon as he stood up, he felt dizzy and was about to fall.

Ling'er quickly supported Bai Fan, "Master, you..."

There was some surprise in Bai Fan's eyes. He didn't understand why his body became like this. He immediately took his own pulse and found that he was poisoned. His brows turned cold.

He had been extra careful with his eating these past few days just like before, so how could he have been poisoned?

Suddenly he looked at the incense burner on the table, then stood up with the help of his cane and walked anxiously to the cabinet next to him.

He opened the porcelain bottle containing Jiang Xue's blood and smelled it, then immediately frowned.

Ling'er walked to Bai Fan and asked, "Master, have you found any problems?"

Bai Fan angrily threw the porcelain bottle in his hand to the ground, and the blood in the bottle immediately splashed all over the ground, "Ahem... bring Jiang Xue back to me!" Bai Fan said angrily.

Ling'er suddenly remembered what Jiang Xue said, 'My blood has a high price.' Did she do something to her blood?

Ling'er suddenly felt lucky that she hadn't used the blood yet. She nodded and said, "Yes, Master, I will bring Jiang Xue back right away."

After saying that, he left quickly.

Bai Fan's eyes were slightly red as he supported himself on the counter with one hand. He looked at the glaring red on the ground and his eyes turned cold. There was something wrong with the blood, but he didn't even notice it. How hateful.

Then he said in a cold voice: "Go and prepare the altar immediately. I will activate the Wuji Pearl tonight."

"Yes." A voice suddenly answered from inside the house.

The lights on Baishan Mountain were bright. Pei Zhijin and his companions moved quickly to the back mountain. Unexpectedly, as soon as they arrived at the back mountain, the people behind them caught up with them.

Bai Yu looked at the wound on his senior brother's chest, raised his sword and said coldly: "Let my senior brother go."

Lin Yiyi's eyes turned immediately, and she put the sword in her hand on Bai Sheng's neck, and said coldly: "If you want to save him, don't come forward, otherwise the sword in my hand will not have eyes."

"You..." Bai Yu immediately stretched out his hand to stop the fellow disciples who were about to step forward.

Gu Yu said to Pei Zhijin: "You take Jiang Xue and go first, we will follow behind."

Pei Zhijin looked at Jiang Xue's pale face, nodded, and then said, "Be careful."

"Let's go."

Pei Zhijin immediately carried Jiang Xue into the cave.

Seeing this, Bai Yu said coldly: "You can't go down the back mountain."

"Stop talking nonsense and step back." Lin Yiyi said coldly.

Bai Yu looked at the blood on Bai Sheng's neck and had to clench his fist and ask everyone to step back.

Bai Sheng whispered to Lin Yiyi: "Find a chance to leave quickly."

"You don't have to tell me." Lin Yiyi said as she suddenly pushed Bai Sheng forward, and then quickly said to Gu Yu and Wang Ziyan: "Retreat!"

Then Wang Ziyan took out two marbles from his arms and threw them forward. As soon as the two marbles landed on the ground, they exploded with a bang.

The thick snow was blown everywhere. Bai Sheng bent down and covered his mouth and nose, while Bai Yu quickly covered his mouth and nose and moved towards Bai Sheng.

"Big Brother, how are you?"

"I am fine."

When the fog dispersed, Lin Yiyi and the other two were nowhere to be seen. Bai Yu immediately shouted, "Chase!"

"Yes."

Everyone prepared to go down to the back mountain.

"Stop it!" Bai Fan's old and powerful voice sounded from behind.

Everyone stopped and turned to look, then immediately bowed and said, "Master!"

Bai Yu was the first to speak: "Master, they have kidnapped our senior brother and captured our junior sister and ran away from the back mountain. We must catch these thieves as soon as possible."

Bai Fan looked at the dark cave entrance in front of him, coughed twice while leaning on his cane, and then said in a cold voice: "They can't leave."

Then he walked towards the cave entrance step by step with a sinister look in his eyes.

When he reached the cave entrance, he pressed the mechanism beside the cave entrance, and heard a clicking sound from inside. Bai Sheng frowned immediately. Master, what is this...

Bai Fan turned around, looked at Bai Yu with determination and said, "They can't run away. You guys, go directly to the altar."

"Yes." Bai Yu said quickly, and then respectfully took his fellow disciples away.

Bai Sheng looked at Bai Fan's actions and asked in confusion: "Master... aren't you going to send someone to catch them?"

"Catch them?" Bai Fan raised his eyebrows and said, "They want to fall into the trap themselves. How can I not help them?"

"What does Master mean?"

"Humph, I just activated the mechanism. As long as they don't leave the hole, the mechanism will send them to the altar."

Bai Sheng clenched his fists after hearing this. He didn't expect that the back mountain could lead directly to the altar.

"Bai Sheng..." Bai Fan suddenly spoke.

Bai Sheng raised his eyes to Bai Fan and asked, "Master, what do you want me to do?"

Bai Fan's eyes suddenly turned cold and he said, "Don't think that I don't know what you did. I will settle the score with you after this matter is settled." After that, he pointed the crutch in his hand at Bai Sheng's neck. Bai Sheng immediately fell down with surprise in his eyes.

Lin Yiyi and the others who had just entered the cave were thrown down before they could take action because the mechanism was suddenly activated. The cave was too narrow and the mechanism covered almost the entire cave. They rolled along the passage below and onto the altar.

As for Pei Zhijin, he was blocked by Ling'er just after he came out of the cave. However, Ling'er was not alone. She was accompanied by a man dressed in black from head to toe, wrapped tightly from head to toe, with only a pair of sharp eyes showing.

Ling'er said to Pei Zhijin in a cold voice: "Put her down, maybe I can spare your life."

Pei Zhijin held Jiang Xue's hand a little tighter, then looked at Ling'er with cold eyes and said, "Impossible."

"Then you are courting your own death!" Then Ling'er ordered the person standing next to her, "Kill him."

The person next to him didn't say anything, but his figure flashed in front of Pei Zhijin as quickly as a ghost, and was about to slap Pei Zhijin in the face with his palm.

Pei Zhijin had a calm look in his eyes and dodged quickly, then used the support of the wall to kick the man in black.

The man in black quickly blocked it with his arm. Pei Zhijin then looked a little surprised. Why did the man feel so stiff, like a solid wall of iron and steel?

The man in black still showed no expression and attacked Pei Zhijin again.

Pei Zhijin had to protect Jiang Xue while avoiding the attacks of the man in black. Furthermore, the man in black seemed to feel no pain and he didn't feel anything when he was hit, nor did he suffer any wounds.

Pei Zhijin was obviously having a hard time fighting, but he couldn't put Jiang Xue down. Once he did, Jiang Xue would be taken away.

Ling'er looked at Pei Zhijin who was still forcing himself to fight, and a triumphant smile appeared on her face. "Humph, let's see how long you can hold on?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Pei Zhijin was hit hard in the chest. The man in black kicked Pei Zhijin in the chest.

Pei Zhijin staggered back a few steps, but still held Jiang Xue tightly in his arms.

Ling'er's impatient voice sounded, "Hurry up and make a quick decision. Don't delay Master's business."

The black-clothed man's eyes moved slightly, and then he attacked again without hesitation. Just when Pei Zhijin thought he was going to be beaten without any ability to fight back, Jiang Xue's weak voice rang out in Pei Zhijin's arms.

"Take the dagger and stab him in the heart, quickly."

Pei Zhijin's eyes moved slightly after hearing this, and then he held Jiang Xue with one hand, pulled out a dagger from behind his waist, and when the man in black approached, he quickly stabbed the dagger into the man's heart.

Jiang Xue slowly opened her eyes and looked at the man in black standing motionless in front of them. She took out the medicine powder from her arms with great effort and sprinkled it on the man in black.

Then the man in black quickly turned into a pool of green water, leaving only his clothes on the ground, proving his presence.

Ling'er watched with her own eyes as a living person disappeared in an instant. The smile on her face froze, and then her eyes showed disbelief.

Jiang Xue said softly: "Put me down."

Pei Zhijin nodded and gently put Jiang Xue down, but his hand still did not leave Jiang Xue.

Jiang Xue raised her eyes to look at Ling'er and said, "Are you sure you still want to stop us?"

Ling'er's eyes showed some panic, and she looked at Jiang Xue in disbelief and asked, "What did you do?"

"Have you heard of corpse-dissolving water?" Jiang Xue raised the corner of her mouth slightly.
