Gu Qingzhou said that when he saw the name on the Demon Killing List, he guessed if she was Cheng Dani. Cheng Shuyan was a little confused about this.

"However, how can you be sure that the 'Cheng Shuyan' on the Demon Killing List is the 'Cheng Dani' you know?

I changed my name after I left Shiqiao Village, so you probably didn't know it."

Gu Qingzhou looked at her strangely, "Don't you remember? When you were a kid...about three, four, or five years old, I often said that your name wasn't Cheng Dani, but Cheng Shuyan.

Later, your father and mother beat me so badly that I didn’t tell anyone! I remember it very well! So when I saw this name, I thought it must be you.”

He picked up a piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth, answering nonchalantly.

However, Cheng Shuyan felt that something was wrong. She had no recollection of what Gu Qingzhou said.

In her memory, she had always been a bystander, watching Cheng Dani grow up to be thirteen years old, and then died on that winter night.

But if that was the case, how could young Cheng Dani know the name "Cheng Shuyan" and say that her name was Cheng Shuyan?

After listening to the whole story, Tian Yiyi and Li Zhiyi finally understood the situation.

Especially Tian Yiyi, it was the first time she heard Gu Qingzhou talk so much, her face was full of surprise, and she pulled Gu Qingzhou aside to ask him all kinds of questions.

The Qi-cultivating monks were eating and talking, but Qiao Muyun came out of the inner hall holding a wine glass and walked into the area where the Qi-cultivating monks were.

Everyone had heard of this person's name, and they all fell silent immediately.

Qiao Muyun, holding a glass of wine, walked straight to Cheng Shuyan, tilted the glass slightly towards her and said:

"Fellow Daoist Cheng, how are you?"

Cheng Shuyan raised his head and looked at the man in front of him with a warm smile, with complicated emotions.

She picked up the wine in front of her, lowered the glass lower than Qiao Muyun's glass, and said respectfully:

"Hello, Senior Qiao. I should have offered you a glass of wine to express my gratitude, but you are dining with other seniors today, so I cannot disturb you.

I didn't expect that Senior would come to see me personally. I am sorry for the rudeness."

Qiao Muyun chuckled with ambiguous meaning after hearing her polite words.

"Haha, Fellow Daoist Cheng, there's no need to be so polite. With your aptitude, I'm afraid it won't be long before you successfully establish your foundation. It's only a matter of time before you and I become fellow Daoists."

"I dare not overstep my bounds. Since I have never established my foundation, I am only a junior."

Cheng Shuyan lowered his head with a respectful look.

"This glass of wine is from the junior to the senior. Thank you for saving me."

Qiao Muyun chuckled, raised his head and drank the wine in the glass, then left alone.

After he left, the atmosphere in the outer hall was no longer so depressing.

"I'm so scared! How do you recognize this smiling tiger?"

Tian Yiyi patted her chest, looking frightened.

Li Zhiyi also asked with concern: "This person is not easy to deal with. Are you okay?"

After Gu Qingzhou came to the world of immortal cultivation, he had been practicing in seclusion alone. He didn't know Qiao Muyun and was a little confused.

"What's wrong? Is this senior scary? I think he's quite kind."

"Kind?" Tian Yiyi exclaimed exaggeratedly: "Who in the entire Yaoyue Mountain Range doesn't know the name of Smiling Tiger Qiao Muyun?

He was originally just an unknown and unappreciated disciple of the Qiao family, but he made a stunning debut when he was building his foundation, standing out from his brothers and sisters and becoming the young master of Linyi Pavilion.

Now he is only in the middle stage of foundation building, but he can make the Yuanying Zhenjun in Linyi Pavilion follow his lead!

Linyi Pavilion! That's the largest store in the entire Cangxuan Continent!

Linyi Pavilion has countless branches, which are spread across various markets in the entire Cangxuan Continent. With such a huge force, he can actually hold the position of the young master with his foundation-building cultivation.

Although he looks gentle, in reality, no one who dares to provoke him has appeared again. Don't you think such a person is scary?"

Li Zhiyi also nodded silently, agreeing with Tian Yiyi's words.

Gu Qingzhou still didn't understand and his eyes were a little confused, but Cheng Shuyan understood.

The fact that he can hold the position of the young master of the behemoth Linyi Pavilion with his foundation-building cultivation shows how terrifying Qiao Muyun is.

So, why would Qiao Muyun keep staring at her?

She still hasn't found the answer to this question.

……

After the meal, everyone became familiar with each other, and those who had similar personalities gathered in groups of three or four to communicate and discuss.

Cheng Shuyan was thinking about the Fiery Sword which had not yet recognized its master, so he said goodbye to Tian Yiyi and the others and returned to his room.

After dripping blood on the Blazing Sword to recognize its master and refining it again, this top-grade spiritual sword was finally ready to go into battle.

What surprised her was that the Blazing Sword actually had a fire-attribute spell - Blazing Spell. When activated, it could instantly condense nine blazing sword lights. If used unexpectedly, it could deal a fatal blow to the enemy.

After a few days, the monsters did not launch any more attacks. Taking this opportunity, Cheng Shuyan refined two batches of rejuvenation pills in the alchemy room in the city lord's mansion.

The consumption of rejuvenation pills on the battlefield was too great. The pills she had on her were used up in the last beast tide. Two furnaces of rejuvenation pills could be said to have solved the urgent problem.

Since the monks coming to support have arrived one after another in the past few days, Zhenren Wen Su and others decided to divide everyone into groups after discussion.

Each team consists of nine people, with a cultivator who has reached the great perfection of Qi training serving as the team leader.

Cheng Shuyan and Tian Yiyi both reached the great perfection of Qi training, so they split into two teams.

Li Zhiyi has reached the ninth level of Qi training and is quite powerful. He has formed a team with the other cultivators from the Li family.

As for Cheng Shuyan, she rescued many people in the previous wave of beast tide. These people were very convinced of her, and in the end, her team consisted of eight of them.

The defenses of Qingshi City have also been reinforced, and now Qingshi City is as solid as a rock.

Everyone was preparing for the next attack from the monsters. After all, the monsters had already launched two sieges on the city.

By the third time, the attack will only be more fierce than the previous two times.

On the cultivators' side, although there were many reinforcements, their numbers were completely no match for the monsters.

When everything was ready, the monks who had gone out of the city to investigate the movements of the monsters also sent back news.

The monsters have begun to stir, and many low-level monsters seem to be affected by the high-level monsters and have become extremely violent.

There was a sign of impending storm in Qingshi City, and the calmness was eerie.

It is worth mentioning that she met the cultivator ranked second on the Demon Killing List at the mobilization meeting held in the City Lord's Mansion.

The man named Lin Yuan looked to be about the same age as her and had also reached the great perfection of Qi training.

He was dressed in black, wrapping himself tightly, and had a black mask on his face, revealing only a pair of sharp eyes.

When Cheng Shuyan looked at him, he also looked in Cheng Shuyan's direction.

That look was so cold that it made her feel uncomfortable.

He was standing next to Cheng Shuyan, two or three people away from each other. The moment they looked at each other, Cheng Shuyan heard him say softly:

"Lin Yuan."
