The city walls are thick and majestic, and the surface is full of mottled traces of time.

Yang Lingxiao's eyes were in a trance, thinking of his experience in Qingfengzhou.

Although it has only been more than three years, for Yang Lingxiao, everything he experienced in Qingfengzhou back then is unforgettable and he will often think of it.

The most impressive, there are two people.

One is Su Xuanjun, with a green robe like jade, elegant and elegant, without showing mountains or dew, he is actually an extremely terrifying existence.

One is Pu Xuan, dressed in white snow, like a fairy like a Buddha, carrying a rusty long sword on his back. He has a high level of cultivation, but he is like a follower, accompanying Su Xuanjun.

What still makes Yang Lingxiao feel palpitations is that in the melee in Huaihuang Kingdom, with the appearance of Emperor Kuxuan, he and Lord Mu Qingtian and Lord Yu Guang of Zhenwu Sword Court lost all senses.

When he regained consciousness, he somehow appeared outside Qingfeng Continent!

All of this brought Yang Lingxiao too much confusion.

In that battle, were Su Xuanjun and Pu Xuan alive or dead?

How did he, Mu Qingtian Jun and Yu Guangjun leave Qingfeng Continent alive?

What happened in that big melee?

Yang Lingxiao still doesn't know about these confusions.

It was only later when he returned to Lixin Jianzhai that he heard that the Heavenly Emperor saber was taken away by the founder of the Taiwu Sect, Kuxuan Heavenly Emperor!

This incident caused a sensation in the entire Upper Wuzhou at that time, and Lixin Jianzhai was also discussing it.

It was also because of this incident that Yang Lingxiao was questioned by many elders of the sect.

Because everyone knows that he has experienced all this himself.

But Yang Lingxiao didn't know why.

Just say what you know.

Yang Lingxiao originally thought that this incident was over.

He never thought that, after more than three years, in the restricted area of ​​Jiuyao, Uncle Wu Qing would actually talk about "Su Xuanjun"!

"Uncle, what do you mean, the reason why I have the quota to enter the Jiuyao restricted area is because I have a relationship with Su Xuanjun?"

Yang Lingxiao couldn't help saying.

He realized it later, and only then discovered that when his uncle Wu Qing opened his mouth, he had already cast a forbidden law to isolate the outside world.

This made his heart tighten, realizing that the problem was serious.

Wu Qing hummed, and said slowly, "This is the sect's top secret. The reason why the sect arranged for you to come is most likely to deal with Su Xuanjun."

Yang Lingxiao was stunned, and smiled wryly, "Uncle, stop joking, Su Xuanjun can hang me with one hand, what should I use to fight him?"

Wu Qing said: "Who told you to do it? If my guess is correct, I should use your relationship with Su Xuanjun to let you play the role of a traitor to kill Su Xuanjun."

Yang Lingxiao was speechless for a while, "Who in the sect doesn't know that I was suppressed by Su Xuanjun? I'm his prisoner!"

Wu Qing looked like an idiot, "As his defeated general, isn't it a kind of relationship? Back then in Qingfengzhou, you were so confused that you were able to leave alive, did you really think you were lucky?"

Yang Lingxiao couldn't believe it, "Su Xuanjun saved me?"

"Even if it's not him, it has something to do with him!"

Wu Qing said, "Based on this relationship, if I were the sect, if you want to deal with Su Xuanjun, you are a pawn that can be used!"

Yang Lingxiao's face changed for a while, and he was very puzzled, "Uncle, do we have enmity with Su Xuanjun in Lixin Jianzhai?"

Wu Qing fell into silence.

After a long time, he said: "I can only tell you that this time we Lixin Jianzhai, together with the Wuliang Emperor Palace, Qisha Heavenly Court, and Nantian Taoist Court, are going to set up a killing game in the Jiuyao restricted area, and the one we have to deal with is Su Xuanjun. !"

Yang Lingxiao gasped, what did Su Xuanjun do to be targeted in this way?

Wu Qing's expression suddenly became serious, "Originally, you are not qualified to know these secrets. The reason why I talked to you is just to confirm one thing."

Yang Lingxiao's heart tightened, "Master, tell me."

Wu Qing stared into his eyes, and said word by word, "If the sect asks you to kill Su Xuanjun, what will you do?"

Yang Lingxiao froze, his expression flickering.

Snapped!

Yang Lingxiao received a slap on the back of the head.

Wu Qing reprimanded: "How dare you hesitate, it seems that you are not loyal enough to the sect! Everyone in the world knows that loyalty is not absolute, but it is absolutely not loyal!"

Yang Lingxiao smiled wryly and said: "Master, I definitely don't dare to disobey the order of the sect, it's just..."

Wu Qing waved his hand, and suddenly said, "When you entered the sect to practice, do you still remember the sentence inscribed on the Lixin Cliff Sword Stele?"

Every successor who enters the practice of Lixin Jianzhai needs to write on the Lixinya sword stele at the beginning of his entry.

It doesn't matter what you write, as long as it is related to seeking Tao.

Yang Lingxiao said without hesitation: "You look up to the heavens and the earth, you have a clear sword heart!"

As soon as these words came out, Yang Lingxiao felt emotional, why was he not afraid of life and death even after being a prisoner in Qingfengzhou?

Even Senior Pu Xuan looked at him differently because of this sentence!

His path of swordsmanship, from his childhood to now, has always sought a "pitch the world, and have a clear sword heart"!

If you are ashamed, your mood will be destroyed!

Immediately, Yang Lingxiao seemed to understand, "Master, what do you mean..."

Having said this just now, Wu Qing said calmly, "Someone is here."

He casually withdrew the forbidden formation that isolated the outside world.

Almost at the same time, a man in a black robe with a resolute and stern face approached from a distance.

"I have seen Lord Wuqing Mountain."

The man in black robe bowed to salute.

"Is there something wrong?" Wu Qing looked indifferent.

The black-robed man said: "I have been ordered by a humble official to invite inner disciple Yang Lingxiao to meet 'Elder Fu'!"

Wu Qing let out a cry.

Yang Lingxiao became visibly nervous.

Elder Fu, whose name is Fu Yong, is the third-ranked elder in the Zongmen's Criminal Law Hall. He is unsmiling and has a cruel temperament.

In the Lixin Jianzhai, the most feared thing for the disciples is not the head teacher, not those old monsters who can't hide from the world, but the Hall of Criminal Law!

And Fu Yong, as the third elder of the Criminal Law Hall, can definitely be called "a fierce name" in the sect!

"Go."

Wu Qing waved his hand, "Perhaps...Elder Fu wants to give you a big opportunity, but it's not certain."

Yang Lingxiao was silent for a while, then nodded, and turned to leave the city together with the man in black robe.

Wu Qing looked at the distance outside the city.

The sky and the earth are dark, and the wind and rain are about to come.

...

The ancient city of Jiuyao is square and full of ancient and obsolete buildings, all of which are left over from the Dharma-ending era.

There are many "monuments" in the city.

Like the "Ten Thousand Stars Monument" in the center of the city, and the nine towering lotus platforms, they are well-known opportunities for cultivating Taoism.

For example, in the east corner of the city, there is a demon refining cave. Although the extraterrestrial demons imprisoned in it have been extinct since the end of the Dharma Era, there are still many secrets hidden in that demon refining cave.

In the eyes of ascetics, the Demon Refining Cave is also an excellent place to refine one's mind.

In addition, there are also historical sites such as "Beacon Tower", "Buried Sword Pavilion" and "No Life Prison" in the ancient city of Jiuyao, each with its own allusions and secrets.

As early as the Dharma-ending Era, this ancient city was said to be one of the frontline battlefields against demons from outside the territory.

The city was once guarded by a group of top figures in the world.

They kill monsters and hunt demons here, fighting all the year round, leaving indelible achievements.

However, time flies, and the wind is always blown away by the rain.

The end of the Dharma Era has ended for millions of years, and now only mottled traces of time are left in this ancient city.

Only from those "monuments" can we get a glimpse of the tip of the iceberg when this ancient city was at its most glorious.

At this time, in a hall made up of star debris.

In the empty palace, there were five people.

They are the old demon Kunpeng from the Immeasurable Emperor's Palace, the widowed mother-in-law of the Nantian Taoist Court, Biyunzi from the Qisha Heavenly Court, and Fu Yong from Li Xin Jian Zhai.

The other person sat cross-legged alone at the end of the hall.

The wall at the end of the hall is made of a whole piece of black meteorite, smooth as a mirror, and filled with mist.

It can be vaguely seen that there seem to be countless stars floating in the wall, flickering and flickering, looming.

Standing in front of the wall and watching, it is like seeing a vast starry sky.

It's just that the starry sky is shrouded in mist.

That figure was bony and withered, sitting there, facing the wall, with his back to the crowd, with long, unkempt snow-white hair hanging down to the ground, which hadn't been trimmed for many years.

The breath around him was dead and silent, like a rock that has been silent in the years.

Swordsman.

An ancient existence whose identity and origin are unknown.

It is said that when Jiang Wuchen, the patriarch of Lixin Jianzhai's founding sect, discovered the Jiuyao restricted area, the sword attendant had already been sitting in this hall, silent and indifferent, like a clay statue of a god.

"how much longer?"

Biyunzi lowered his voice and spoke, as if he was afraid of disturbing the sword attendant.

He was wearing a black Taoist robe and an iron crown, holding a black dust whisk, and a black Taoist ruler inserted obliquely behind his back.

In the Heavenly Court of the Seven Demons, Biyunzi's status is not high, but his strength is extremely domineering among the heavenly monarchs. His body is a "Bifang bird" with an unrivaled fierce temperament.

"Within half a month, definitely!"

Fu Yong responded.

He was old, with a stooped figure, cloudy eyes, and an inconspicuous appearance.

But he is the third elder of Lixin Jianzhai who is in charge of the criminal law, a ruthless man who can torture any enemy prisoner to death.

"Half a month? Is it too late?"

The mother-in-law sighed.

She is the protector of Fairy Lianyue, and she is also an elder demon king who has been reclusive for many years in the Heavenly Court of Qisha.

"Could it be that after the target came to Jiuyao Ancient City, we can only watch and do nothing?"

Kunpeng old demon frowned.

He has the most outstanding appearance, looks like a young man, with a majestic figure, dressed in a golden robe, standing there with his hands behind his back, with the potential to swallow the world.

But anyone who really understands its details knows that this Kunpeng old monster can definitely be called a peerless murderer!

"This is the time given by Senior Swordsman. In my opinion, it's only half a month, so it's okay."

Fu Yongdao, when he faced the Kunpeng old demon, he was obviously a little apprehensive, and his words and demeanor were very polite.

The Kunpeng old demon snorted coldly, turned around suddenly, and looked at the sword waiter sitting alone in front of the wall in the distance.

His voice was cold, and he said in a commanding tone, "Old guy, I will give you a time, within ten days, completely seal the ancient city of Jiuyao, can you do it?"

The sword waiter remained silent, as if he didn't realize it.

But in this hall, a ray of sword energy suddenly appeared. The next moment, the figure of the Kunpeng old demon was violently blasted out and smashed against the wall in the distance.
