After rebirth, the eldest sister voluntarily abdicated and gave way to the wise.

"what--!"

Dozens of disciples fell straight down from mid-air, all lying on their backs, shouting "Ouch, ouch" continuously.

Among these embarrassed disciples, only Jiang Junze and Gu Chengxue landed steadily and calmly.

Gu Chengxue immediately went to care for the disciple of the Jishen Sect who had fallen and asked if he was injured.

Jiang Junze just glanced at the Qiankun Sect disciples who fell to the ground without saying a word, but his fierce eyes made them tighten their backs. They all gathered their breath and concentration, immediately straightened their appearance, and got up from the ground.

Shui Lian'er patted her chest in fear and leaned closer to Jiang Liqian.

Jiang Liqian kept her head down the whole time, her slender figure sunk in the wind, as if she would disappear at any moment.

"Brother Jiang, for the sake of fairness, let us let you choose the direction first during our sacrifice to the God Sect. You can choose two of the four directions: east, south, west and north." Gu Chengxue walked to Jiang Junze, but his eyes couldn't help but glance at Jiang Liqian in the crowd.

But he only saw the hair brushing against her forehead.

The Jishen Sect is the occupier of Shennong Territory and must be more familiar with it. Letting them choose first will indeed be beneficial to them.

Jiang Junze said nothing and nodded in agreement.

"The two of you from the southeast, let's go. We will have a ten-day period. On the last two days, we will gather at Baicao Valley to get the Reincarnation Grass together."

Gu Chengxue turned around and discussed with several more prestigious disciples in the team, and nodded in agreement.

The two teams did not stop and separated in the southeast and northwest directions respectively.

Jiang Liqian and the others walked a little further along the path and then stopped.

Jiang Junze gave each of them a teleportation talisman.

"If your life is in danger, you can use this talisman to return here and wait for ten days to expire before leaving," he said. "Now, each group will choose a direction, and we will separate."

Finally they were able to get away from this iceberg. Shui Lian'er held Jiang Liqian in each hand and Ye Anan in the other, picked a direction at random, and ran away with them.

Qin Beiyao gritted his teeth and chased after him happily.

The other disciples also chose their own paths and disappeared in twos and threes.

Jiang Junze waited until they all left before summoning his natal sword, Lingxu.

Stepping on the sword, he paused for a moment, glanced at the direction Jiang Liqian left, then chose a path very close to them and went away with the sword.

......................................................

Push open the small wooden door filled with the fragrance of peach blossoms, step onto the path paved with green jade, and meander through flowers and willows, then walk through the clear water pond covered with withered lotus leaves, and come to a bright pavilion standing by the water.

Someone stood by the water and threw the bait in his hand. Countless beautiful carp swam over in a rush, and some even jumped out of the water, splashing a lot of water.

The bait was eaten up in an instant.

The man was neither hurried nor slow. He grabbed some more bait and threw it in.

The small fishes fought more fiercely and even started biting each other.

The red blood spread out from the green waves, disturbing the dead leaves.

However, the man standing in front of the pavilion just watched quietly, his calm eyes were like the eternal dark night, making it impossible for people to see through his thoughts.

"My lord, we couldn't find the 'primer' in Qimingzhai." The man knelt down tremblingly, not daring to look at the person feeding the bait, with his head buried very low.

His heart was beating violently, and fine, dense cold sweat had already soaked his clothes on the way here, but he didn't dare to be negligent at all. He could only hold his breath and wait for that person to decide his life or death.

But the man didn't seem to care about his purpose, and continued to slowly feed the fish in the lake, watching them wag their tails, grab food, bite, and finally bleed on the spot.

After all the bait in his hand was fed, the man raised his eyelids slightly and looked at him.

His body trembled even more violently.

He could even feel that he had one foot on the Yellow Springs Road where evil spirits were howling.

Summoning all his courage, he risked everything and defended himself, "Jiang Yueming is cunning. Immortal Qingzhi has personally added another seal. There's also a very perceptive little disciple who keeps disrupting things unexpectedly. She's the one who's been obstructing the magic stone plan. This subordinate... this is..."

The man raised his hand.

He stopped talking suddenly, and beads of cold sweat dripped from his wet hair and fell to the ground, salty and cold.

He closed his eyes almost resignedly.

However, the force that could have reduced him to ashes did not come, only a sigh and laughter that was neither light nor heavy.

He first lay on the ground, gasping for breath as if he had survived a disaster, thankful that he was not dead. Then he couldn't help but suppress his pounding heart, and bravely raised his head slightly, looking over in confusion.

What on earth could make the Lord show leniency to him?

"Just go back and continue with your plan."

The heart that had been hanging in his throat finally settled down completely. He didn't dare to delay, suppressed the doubts in his heart, and immediately stood up and left Mingxuan.

Only after he crossed the stone bridge could he help but look back.

The master, with a smile on his face, looked thoughtfully at the clusters of beautifully blooming Miscanthus flowers by the pond.

The six soft petals of the Miscanthus sway slightly in the setting sun, with bits of light scattered among them, giving it a dreamlike feeling.

Coincidentally, there were exactly six awn-shaped flowers gathered together to form a neat hexagon.

The faint fragrance of flowers rushed into his nose along with the last ray of sunlight. He quickly turned his head and quickened his pace to walk out.

If he remembered correctly, this awn horn flower seemed to be able to captivate people and make them dream under certain conditions.

To whom is the Lord...

He didn't dare to guess any more and hurriedly left the courtyard.

The evening wind rises, the eternal night is coming, the starry sky is dim, the bright moon is without light, and the light of the dust seems to be unable to survive the night.

Only the sound of bells ringing through the world.

-

I don’t know if it was bad luck or too much Mercury retrograde, but Shui Lian’er, who had been walking in the forest for a day and a night, could no longer hold on and fell down with a "clang".

Qin Beiyao, who was following behind her, was shocked and immediately stepped forward to catch her.

Jiang Liqian and Ye Anan, who were walking in front to lead the way, heard the sound and looked back.

"Lianlian, what's wrong with you?" Jiang Liqian walked quickly to her side and raised his hand to feel her pulse.

Shui Lian'er waved her hands weakly, her face looking pale.

Jiang Liqian turned her gaze to Qin Beiyao who caught her and asked silently.

Qin Beiyao pursed his lips and said, "This forest is endless. Once you enter, you can't find the way out. Along the way, you haven't encountered any monsters or ghosts, nor have you picked up any treasures. She might be a little discouraged."

Shui Lian'er chose this direction, but she never encountered anything, so she couldn't help feeling guilty.

Jiang Liqian heard this and wanted to say something, but Ye Anan, who was playing with a wild flower beside her, smiled with curved eyebrows.
