"...I like it." After a little hesitation, Baizhen still gave an answer that would make Huorong happy.

As expected, Huorong laughed happily, revealing two small pointed canine teeth.

All day long, Baizhen stayed with Huorong in the pear blossom forest, and did not return to Hefengmen until night fell. Many disciples saw Baizhen wearing pear blossoms on his head, and they all mistakenly thought that they were hallucinating. (???????)?*.

Under the careful care of Baili Wuming, the injury on Duan Qing's shoulder healed within three days.

"Thank you brother for taking care of me for so many days." Duan Qing pretended to give Baili Wuming a salute, then suddenly shortened the distance with Baili Wuming, and kissed Baili Wuming's fair cheek.

Baili Wuming's eyes widened instantly, and he covered his face, "You..."

"Brother took such good care of me, I feel really sorry if I don't give you a little thank you." Duan Qing said with a smile, and walked towards Xianle Square.

Baili Wuming opened his mouth, out of anger, but he didn't know how to scold Duan Qing, the face covered by him was as hot as a fever.

Along the way, he repeatedly used the back of his hand to freeze his face, trying to cool down the heat on his face.

Xianle Plaza is their destination.

Baili Wuming and Duan Qing walked over one after another. At this time, a large number of Hefengmen disciples had gathered in Xianle Square.

They are not the outer disciples that Baili Wuming and Duan Qing are familiar with, but inner disciples.

Today, Master Master Bai Zhen is going to lead the carefully selected inner disciples to the cave where the commander of the Demon Race——Mozun was sealed thousands of years ago.

Among the outer disciples, only Baili Wuming and Duan Qing were selected.

"Duan Qing, what's wrong with you?"

A gust of strong wind blew past, messing up Duan Qing's already messy black hair. Baili Wuming stood beside Duan Qing, and when he saw Duan Qing from the corner of his eye, he always felt that Duan Qing's expression was a bit serious.

"Could it be that the injury has relapsed?"

Hearing Baili Wuming's muttering, Duan Qing let out a chuckle, "Senior brother cares about me so much, I'm really flattered!"

"Who cares about you?" Baili Wuming gave Duan Qing a white look, "I'm just afraid that you will be slowed down. Our mission this time is extremely dangerous, otherwise the head master would not lead the team himself."

"Isn't it just a matter of going to the sealed cave of the Demon Lord? It's not a big deal." Duan Qing said calmly.

"It's no big deal?" Baili Wuming was surprised, "That's the Demon Lord. It was only sealed by the Immortal Emperor thousands of years ago, otherwise human beings would be destroyed by the Demon Race."

"Hehe!" Duan Qing just laughed twice, noncommittal.

Human beings are destroyed by demons?

The purple pupil dimmed in an instant, and the memory that had been buried for thousands of years hurt Duan Qing's temple like a needle.

"Duan Qing, are you alright?" Baili Wuming always felt that Duan Qing's face was ugly and abnormal.

When she regained her senses, Duan Qing gently opened her thin lips, as if she was talking to herself: "Didn't it mean that the soul of the Immortal Emperor has not really disappeared, but has entered reincarnation?"

"This... I don't know, it's all rumors." Baili Wuming shrugged, "According to the head master, the Demon Lord is not dead, but just sealed. Recently, the Demon Race has been active. The sect thought that there might be something wrong with the Demon Lord's seal, so we asked us, the Hefengmen who are closest to that cave, to go and investigate first."

"That cave..." Duan Qing lowered her eyes, and the corners of her lips curled up, "Do you know where it is, brother?"

"I don't know." Baili Wuming shook his head, "Since it's the place where the Demon Lord is sealed, it should be quite hidden, right?"

"Oh, is that so?" Duan Qing chuckled again, a pair of purple pupils rolled to the corners of her eyes, and she glanced at Baili Wuming calmly.

In this way, Bai Zhen set off with his outstanding disciples.

Although he was mentally prepared for the worst before setting off, when he actually found the cave where the Demon Lord was sealed, his heart tightened suddenly——

There was no one in the cave, and the demon king was not in it.

"Sure enough... have you broken the seal?" Bai Zhenjian's eyebrows were furrowed, with a dignified expression.

The inner disciples of the Crane Wind Sect also realized that the Demon Lord had broken the seal and his whereabouts were unknown, so they all whispered to each other, all looking worried.

Although Baili Wuming and Duan Qing were standing at the rear among the disciples, they were still inside the cave.

"Here... here is..."

Both eyes were wide open, black pupils trembled like sand, Baili Wuming's voice trembled slightly, his chest heaved up and down, and his breathing was short of breath.

"Senior brother, what's the matter with you?" Baili Wuming's pale face was reflected in her purple eyes, Duan Qing had a smile on her lips, and asked casually: "This cave...could it have brought back some bad memories for senior brother?"
