The sect is full of evildoers, but I am the eldest brother.

No matter what Gu Yi thought, Bai Linglong was determined not to come out.

No matter what he said, it just wouldn't come out!

"You can't even defeat me with your little tricks, and yet you still dream of challenging the 'Sword Lord'?"

Gu Yi half-leaned on his tail, mocking him while at the same time dropping a few pieces of information, "Sword Lord was famous long before you were born. In terms of cultivation, he's at least at the Beyond Shore Realm. I saw it with my own eyes last time. Sword Lord killed a powerful cultivator at the Earthly Profound Transformation with a single palm strike. You haven't even reached the Divine Human Transformation yet, and you dare to brag about killing him?"

The guy pretending to be the eldest brother has grown so powerful?!

Bai Linglong was a little surprised.

The last time she saw him, he was clearly only at the Kaihai realm and could be easily killed. However, she didn't expect that after a few years, he was far ahead of her and entered the Huaqiao realm first.

If we just leave it alone like this, in two years, won’t we all be able to ascend to the other side?

Bai Linglong had also seen the fake swordsman with her own eyes. It can be said that apart from his appearance, there was nothing about him that matched the majestic figure in her mind.

He even secretly colluded with the remnants of the Blood Alliance, went along with them, and deliberately created momentum. If the remnants of the Blood Alliance had not rescued the impostor, how could this guy be allowed to get away with it!

Bai Linglong secretly clenched her fists and gritted her teeth, "So what?"

“How do you know if it works if you don’t try?”

She returned Gu Yi's words exactly as they had been said not long ago.

Hearing this, Gu Yi's smile showed a little helplessness.

This is no longer a question of whether it is possible or not, it is simply impossible!

Throughout history, how many cultivators have been able to cross great realms and kill powerful enemies?

If it is the first three realms in the mortal realm, it is still possible.

The further you practice, the more obvious the differences become.

The gap between Kaihai Realm and Huaqiao Realm is not just a realm.

One is the initial stage of practice, the final stage from outside to inside; the other is the late stage of practice, the starting stage from inside to outside. The gap between the two is huge, like the difference between heaven and earth.

He and his good brother were just friends in the early stage of the Other Shore Realm. They teamed up to kill the defected senior sister of Wu Lishan who was one small realm higher than them. They were remembered by the world and became famous.

A large part of this confidence comes from the ancient black sword.

It is simply wishful thinking to want to leap from the Kaihai Realm to the Da Realm and kill a cultivator in the Huaqiao Realm.

Even if it was Gu Yi, even though he successfully opened up the Sea of ​​Bitterness and achieved the perfect achievement of the Sea Opening Realm, if he met a cultivator in the Bridge Transformation Realm, he would still run away if he could, and never thought of defeating the opponent.

Not to mention, the Fake Sword Master's cultivation level is most likely at the second level of Earthly Profound Transformation.

That’s it, what can Bai Linglong use to fight against others?

"Let's try~"

Gu Yi said mercilessly: "Try and you will die~"

"You even dream of challenging and defeating those long-established prodigies of heaven, even though I'm a mere cultivator whose cultivation is inferior to yours?"

"This courage is indeed commendable."

He tutted his words and shook his head, "Just a little lack of self-awareness."

"You know, there's a difference between the moon in the sky and the moon in the water."

"You have successfully opened up the Sea of ​​Bitterness and achieved the Three Realms of Perfection, which is already superior to thousands and thousands of others. But I want to tell you that you have only found the right direction in your practice and have gained a relatively clear understanding of yourself. The real challenge is still ahead!"

"Even if you are blessed with great fortune and have managed to break through to the third realm, the road ahead will be a thousand times more difficult than at the beginning. One wrong step could lead to you falling into the abyss, from which there is no return."

"If you are still so unmotivated and so conceited..."

Gu Yi patted the fox's tail behind him twice and said, "Don't even think about ascending to the other side in this lifetime."

Bai Linglong did not respond, but kept thinking about these words.

You can say that she is not enterprising.

But she doesn't admit that she is pretentious!

Admittedly, at the beginning of the fight, she was a little arrogant because her own cultivation was one small realm higher than her opponent, but later she became serious and tried her best every time she attacked.

But what can she do if she really can't win?

Than speed?

No, I can’t even touch the corner of the other person’s clothes.

Compare strength?

It wasn't enough, one punch shattered all her fantasies.

Compare Taoism?

From the time they started fighting until now, Bai Linglong has never seen Gu Yi do the same thing again.

The only consolation.

It may be because Bai Linglong’s cultivation is one small realm higher than Gu Yi.

At the same time, this is also the saddest thing.

Because Bai Linglong had such a huge advantage, she was crushed by Gu Yi in all aspects.

Logically speaking, the advantage in cultivation is undoubtedly huge, which means that the power that Bai Linglong can mobilize and her understanding of the Tao are far superior to Gu Yi.

However, she still lost, completely...

"Hey, are you some great master who's dissatisfied with the status quo and wants to rebuild your Dao Fruit?"

Bai Linglong suddenly asked.

Her feeling was not a whim, but had solid basis.

Bai Linglong might feel dissatisfied because she is weaker than Gu Yi.

Even though Bai Linglong lost to Gu Yi in terms of speed, she would still console herself by saying that she was careless.

But Bai Linglong was convinced by Gu Yi's absolute control over spiritual power, his awareness of every movement around him, and his calm attitude in the face of danger, and was willing to admit defeat.

She did not forget that before the fight, Gu Yi easily saw through her illusion. After the fight, he relied on his absolute control over spiritual power and his fearless mentality to overcome the hard with the soft, and renew the fox fire she summoned, kneading it into a more powerful light bomb.

If it were Bai Linglong herself, she would definitely not do this without some confidence.

After all, at such a close distance, once the fox fire explodes, the person will be crippled if not killed.

Refine the magic attacks summoned by the enemy and use them for your own benefit?

Even she herself wouldn't dare to be so arrogant!

To sum up, Gu Yi is definitely not just a cultivator in the Kaihai realm!

For a long time, there was no sound from the outside world.

Bai Linglong was puzzled for a moment, "Mr. Gu?"

"Boss Bai, we're already so familiar with each other, so there's no need to call me 'Mr.'"

"Also, my last name is 'Yu', which means surplus every year."

Gu Yi's voice stopped ringing.

On the contrary, Yu Huan, the second-in-command of Youhuan Hall, accepted this respect without any shame or anxiety.

"Yu Huan?"

"it's me."

Yu Huan looked around at the damaged and bumpy ground, his eyebrows raised slightly, and said, "Boss Bai, did you eliminate the rebels and hide in the tail to heal your wounds?"

"Are you okay?"

"Heh, you think you can deceive me with this little illusion..."

Bai Linglong sneered, "Secret code!"

Yu Huan outside was confused, "We have a secret code in Youhuan Hall?"

"Nonsense, codeword!"

"Then... then let me think about it... hiss, is this true... Boss Bai, did you remember something wrong? It's me, Yu Huan, not that big black guy, Lao Hu."

"Stop talking nonsense, code word!"

Glancing at the group of younger brothers behind him staring at him with doubtful and somewhat hostile eyes, Yu Huan smiled bitterly, "Boss Bai, I really don't know what the secret code is."

"The Master of the Hundred Demons Hall is still watching from behind, please at least give me some face..."

Seeing that Bai Linglong was wrapped in the tail, she had no reaction.

Yu Huan, who came to meet him, scratched his cheek awkwardly, "Well, the King of Heaven and the Tiger of Earth?"

Soon, the spherical body in front of Yu Huan began to wriggle slowly.

The nine tails gradually shrank and were retracted into the body.

Bai Linglong stood up on her knees.

Seeing this, Yu Huan was particularly considerate and stepped forward to support him.

"What's the matter, Boss Bai? What happened?"

"fine."

Bai Linglong waved her hand to indicate that she was fine, and then looked at the people in Yu Huan's Youhuan Hall.

"We are here to see Master Bai!!!"

Everyone in the group knelt on one knee and shouted in unison and loudly.

However, beside these people, there were still a few people who remained standing.

Among them, there is a person whose status in the Holy Church is equal to Bai Linglong, and he is also the head of a hall. However, in terms of status in the heart of the Holy Lord, no one can compare to this head of the Bai Hall.

This hall master is none other than the leader of the Hundred Demons Hall, which was rebuilt after the Black Demon Hall. He was once a demon from the Western Regions, and is now the hall master of the Hundred Demons Hall—Kuang Langsheng!

"Did Master Bai encounter an enemy attack?"

Kuang Langsheng looked around and asked.

"nothing."

Bai Linglong continued to speak in the same tone. She then looked at the members of the Phantom Hall who had followed Yu Huan, her brows furrowed slightly, "Have you discovered any trace of the Blood Alliance?"

Yu Huan nodded. "Almost. The Holy Lord is currently gathering all the hall masters for an emergency meeting. Old Hu and Old Die... ahem, Deacon Die and the others have already gone there."

"I see."

Bai Linglong subconsciously looked around, and without thinking too much, she shook her hair and walked away decisively. Seeing this, the others followed her in an orderly manner.

The group left here in a mighty manner.

······

At night, the moonlight is dim, the river water is cold, and the weeping willows on both sides seem to be pulled by the wind. Their branches sway gently across the night, crushing their shadows in the sparkling waves.

A small boat floats slowly in the river.

The oars gently rowed, disturbing the moonlight and autumn waves that filled the river.

Ripples spread out in circles.

The lights on the shore were dim, and the sound of cups clinking against each other was mixed with laughter.

At a glance, the beautiful scenery of Jiangnan is fully revealed at this moment.

At this time, Da Gu and Xiao Gu finished their midnight snack and sat in a small boat on the river.

The former ordered a pot of sake from the restaurant, drank it under the moon, felt bored and yawned continuously, while the latter rubbed his round belly and burped loudly from time to time.

"Phew! I can't hold on any longer."

Gu Junjun gently rubbed her belly and smiled innocently, "It's good to be rich. You can eat whatever you want, three meals a day, and every meal has meat!"

"How many meals have you eaten today..."

Gu Yi raised his eyes slightly, and said with a slight embarrassment: "I didn't realize you were such a big eater. Including the meal at Qiwen Pavilion, this is already your seventh or eighth meal, right?"

"Go! Go! Go."

Gu Junjun glanced at Gu Yi in annoyance, "Those are just snacks, can they be considered a meal?"

"Even if it was just snacks, you finished most of them by yourself."

"What happened?"

"You just handed over 30,000 spirit stones, shouldn't I get some interest for you?

He said confidently: "You don't care about the money, but I care about my next meal!"

"Not to mention that I have to replenish 50,000 spirit stones in three days. How many meals will that be enough for?"

"I'm not worried about the money, I'm just concerned about your health."

Gu Yi said with a smile: "If you keep eating like this and your stomach starts to growl in the middle of the night, don't drag me into the dark to relieve myself. I hate the smell!"

"I'm not a child. I don't need you to accompany me."

"You said the same thing the day before yesterday."

"That's in the wild, full of monsters and demons. It's very dangerous!"

"Okay, you're always right. I won't argue with you."

After that, both of them fell silent.

There were no extra words, only the sound of the bow breaking through the river water was particularly clear.

Whoosh, whoosh...

The evening breeze, carrying the coolness from the river, blew across my clothes.

The willow shadows on the shore, the pale moon in the sky, and the figures sitting in the boat are all frozen here, forming a peaceful and tranquil picture.

Full of the gentleness of peaceful times.

After a moment, Gu Junjun suddenly asked, "Are you angry?"

Gu Yi's hand reaching for the wine container paused for a moment, then he picked up the jade bottle and calmly filled the wine cup on the small table. He smiled and asked, "Is it obvious?"

“It’s not particularly obvious.”

Gu Junjun replied after thinking about it.

"Then how did you figure that out?"

Gu Yi couldn't help laughing, "Feeling?"

"No, because you just look unhappy."

Gu Junjun pointed to the jade bottle and wine cup on the small table and said, "And he's having a drink tonight, which is rare. Are you trying to drown your sorrows in wine?"

"But what does worry have to do with anger?"

Gu Yi chuckled and pursed his lips, saying, "Besides, such a beautiful Jiangnan scenery, but without the company of a Jiangnan beauty, if there is not even any good wine, wouldn't it be a pity?"

"Sadness and anger really have nothing to do with each other."

Gu Junjun automatically filtered out the second half of Gu Yi's sentence, "But if you were really worried, you wouldn't just want such a small bottle of wine. It's just this little, not even enough to satisfy your hunger."

"Do you even know what a drink is..."

"Besides, didn't you admit it just now?"

Gu Yi shook his head and sighed without hiding anything, "There's a breath of air in my chest that needs to be released. A glass of wine can greatly relieve the fatigue of my body and mind."

"You should forget it, right?"

"You are right to understand that."

"Then why are you angry?"

"I'm not angry, you're worrying too much."

Gu Yichang exhaled a breath of foul air, waved his hand and said: "Go to bed early."

"It's not good for children to stay up too late. They need to go to bed and get up early so they can grow healthily."

"Really?"

"You are so smart, how could I deceive you?"

"That's true."

After a while, a subtle and rhythmic snoring sound was heard from the tent.

It’s good to be young, you can fall asleep right away...

Gu Yi leaned on the edge of the boat, looked down at the water, and saw the young face reflected in it.

He stared at the person in the water for a long time, then suddenly raised his wine cup and poured the sake down. "You, you, have been the eldest brother for several years, and it's okay if you didn't teach the older one well, but now you are also like this to the younger one."

"One or two, that's too much of a failure..."
