Liu Zijin looked at the bowl of white rice in front of her, was stunned for a moment, and then recalled the sentence that Xu Taiping said to her, where do you dare to die.
Immediately, she still reached out and picked up the rice bowl, picked up the chopsticks, and ate the rice with tears streaming down her face.
“Senior Sister Zijin, you will go down the mountain after the Seven Peaks Competition, right？”
Xu Taiping asked while watching Liu Zijin eat.
“Hmm.”
Liu Zijin nodded vigorously.
“Originally, I was supposed to represent the Fifth Peak in the Seven Peaks Competition.”
She said with a somewhat gloomy expression.
Xu Taiping nodded and then let out a long sigh and said：
“After I watch the competition of the senior brothers that day, I will come to see you off. If I am late, please wait for me for a while, Senior Sister Zijin.”
Liu Zijin looked at Xu Taiping deeply and then shook her head and said： “Taiping, you and my sister met by chance. There is no need to do this.”
She faintly felt that Xu Taiping was going to do something, but she wasn’t sure. In any case, she didn’t want to implicate the other party.
Xu Taiping shook his head and said：
“Now that I think about it, if Sister Qingmei hadn’t told me the weakness of that ghost that day, I’m afraid I would have died in Qingzhu Residence three years ago. Even a drop of water given in kindness should be returned with a fountain of gratitude, not to mention a life-saving grace.”
Three years ago, if it wasn’t for Liu Qingmei telling him the weakness of the ghost that it was afraid of alcohol, he would have had no chance of winning in the battle with the ghost.
……
On the way down the mountain.
“Taiping, have you decided？”
The voice of Fairy Lingyue sounded in Xu Taiping’s mind.
“Decided.”
Xu Taiping nodded slightly in his heart and replied in his mind.
“Why do you still want to help those two sisters？”
Fairy Lingyue asked again.
“It’s not about helping anyone.”
Xu Taiping shook his head, then looked up at Senior Brother Qingxiao who was waiting for him in the pavilion in front. His tone was very calm as he said, “Although out of sight, out of mind, as long as I don’t think about it or look at it, I can pretend that nothing happened. But after seeing Senior Sister Zijin, now whether I open my eyes or close them, I can see Lu Chen’s disgusting face. If I don’t kill him, my eyes will be hard to cleanse and my heart will be hard to calm.”
Hearing this, Fairy Lingyue smiled and said lightly, “Then kill him.”
“Junior Brother.”
At this time, Qingxiao below also saw Xu Taiping.
“Second Senior Brother.”
Xu Taiping quickened his pace and walked down.
“How did the chat go？”
Qingxiao asked Xu Taiping casually.
“She is willing to eat.”
Xu Taiping said.
“Then the Fifth Peak Master has to thank you well.”
Qingxiao smiled.
“The Fifth Peak Master values Senior Sister Zijin so much, but still couldn’t keep her on the mountain？”
Xu Taiping asked with some confusion.
“The Fifth Peak Master is an honest and kind person and doesn’t like sect disputes. And Lu Chen’s father, Lu Zimu, is a capable subordinate of the Sect Leader. His status seems inferior to that of the Fifth Peak Master, but in fact, when it comes to speaking, he is more effective than the Fifth Peak Master.”
Qing Xiao said helplessly.
“Since the Sect Leader is so partial to his own people, why don’t the various peaks have any objections？”
Xu Taiping asked curiously.
This was the first time he had inquired about the internal strife in the sect.
“Because he is very strong. Among the peak masters of Qingxuan Sect, except for the Younger Martial Uncle, no one can take a single sword strike from him.”
Qing Xiao said in a very serious tone.
“Moreover, Qingxuan is now in decline. The reason why the other eight mansions of the Nine Mansions still respect Qingxuan so much is, first, because of the Younger Martial Uncle, and second, because of Sect Leader Zhou’s sword. This is also the reason why many peak masters don’t like his behavior but have no choice.”
He then added another sentence.
Upon hearing this, Xu Taiping immediately understood in his heart.
He thought to himself： “After all, in the cultivation world, the strong are respected.”
For some reason, his sense of urgency to improve his cultivation speed increased by another point.
“These words, you and I can talk about, but don’t mention them to others.”
Qing Xiao then reminded Xu Taiping again.
“Of course.”
Xu Taiping nodded.
“By the way, the Seven Peaks Competition is coming soon, and one of the competitions in the Seven Peaks Competition is the sword formation. Would you like to come and make up the number？”
Qingxiao asked Xu Taiping.
“But senior brother, I haven’t learned swordsmanship yet.”
Xu Taiping said worriedly.
“You just need to guard an insignificant array eye, it doesn’t matter if you use a sword or not.”
Qingxiao smiled.
“In that case, I should be fine.”
Xu Taiping nodded.
“Then I will enter your name into the competition roster first.”
Qingxiao nodded with a smile.
“By the way, senior brother, do you know where that Lu Chen was sent down the mountain？”
Xu Taiping suddenly asked Qingxiao.
“I don’t know exactly where, but Elder Lu has a good relationship with the Pavilion Master of the Nameless Pavilion, and that Lu Chen should be placed in the South Mountain under the jurisdiction of the Nameless Pavilion.
Qingxiao replied casually.
“Why ask this？”
He asked Xu Taiping curiously.
“I just asked casually.”
Xu Taiping smiled and prevaricated.
Qingxiao nodded and didn’t think much about it. Just when preparing to go down the mountain, he reminded Xu Taiping again：
“The Peak Master has recently found an elder to teach you swordsmanship. You should pay attention in the next few days. He may come to you.”
“Okay.”
Xu Taiping nodded, but in his heart he was a little strange and said：
“The Peak Master actually specifically found an elder to teach me swordsmanship？”
……
A few days later.
Qiyuexuan.
“Xu Taiping, you’re really heartless. I flew for days and nights, and you only gave me half a cup of Dragon Gallbladder Wine？”
Inside the stone building in the backyard, Bai Yu poked the half cup of Dragon Gallbladder Wine on the table with its wing, looking indignant.
“Drink it or not？ If you don’t drink it, I’ll give it to Ping’an.”
Xu Taiping, who was sitting opposite the table, made a gesture to take back the half cup of wine.
“No way!”
Before Xu Taiping could take away the wine cup, Bai Yu quickly protected the wine cup with its wing, and then picked up the wine cup with its mouth and drank it all in one gulp.
“Comfortable!”
After drinking half a cup of Dragon Gallbladder Wine, Bai Yu let out a strange cry like an old drunkard.
Have you found it yet?
Xu Taiping, propping his chin with his hand, asked Bai Yu.
“Hehe, you guess.”
Bai Yu smiled mischievously.
“Sister Lingyue, this kid told me about you a few days ago…”
“Stop！”
Before Xu Taiping could finish speaking, Bai Yu covered his mouth with its wing.
“What？”
At this time, Fairy Lingyue emerged from the gourd.
“I mean, I found the place where that brat Lu Chen lives at the foot of the mountain！”
Before Xu Taiping could open his mouth, Bai Yu quickly replied.
“Where？”
Xu Taiping also stopped joking around with it.
“Nanshan, Heduling, Fengxiao Villa.”
Bai Yu didn’t play tricks anymore.
Xu Taiping immediately took out the map.
“It’s not too far from the Seven Peaks.”
He found the location of Fengxiao Villa on the map.
“That’s right. Flying at my current speed, it will take at most one hour to get there.”
Bai Yu nodded and said.
“Did you remember the situation in the villa？”
Xu Taiping asked again.
“It’s all in my mind.”
Bai Yu poked his head with its wing and then gave Xu Taiping a wise look.
“However, if my Induction is correct, there are two powerful demons beside Lu Chen. Their ranks should both be at the level of the Demon King. Although they are far inferior to the Peacock King, their auras are not weak either.”
It then added another sentence.
