The reason why she directly asked Mu Yun about the news of Xu Taiping as soon as she came up was because she had already discussed this matter with Mu Yun before coming to Qingxuan Sect.
Upon hearing this, Mu Yun helplessly shook his head and said：
”As soon as I arrived in Liuxian Town, I went to visit the head of Qingxuan Sect and Xu Taiping’s second senior brother, Du Gu Qingxiao. But both of them had no clue about the whereabouts of Brother Taiping.”
Saying that, Mu Yun poured a cup of tea for Dongfang Yuejian and Master Xuanzhi respectively, and then continued：
”After that, I went to Jiufu again and found Huangque of Jiufu, who has some friendship with Brother Taiping.”
“Huang Que said that the Jiufu has never given up looking for Taiping for all these years, but after searching for so many years, there is still no news.”
When he said this, Mu Yun raised his head and looked at Du Gu Qingxiao and Master Xuanzhi with a very serious expression and said：
“Taiping is like disappearing out of thin air from this world, and no trace can be found.”
After hearing this, the worried look in Dongfang Yuejian’s eyes became even stronger.
However, the monk Xuanzhi on the side smiled lightly and said：
“That at least shows that Taiping is not in danger of his life at the moment. Otherwise, a cause and effect cannot disappear from this world out of thin air.”
After hearing this, Mu Yun nodded and said：
“What Master Xuanzhi said is right. If Taiping was really killed, it would definitely be revealed in the hexagram of the Tianji master.”
After listening to the words of the two, the worried look in Dongfang Yuejian’s eyes finally eased.
And at this moment, only a “clang” sound was heard, and a bell rang suddenly.
Immediately afterwards, only the voice of an old man rang out over Tianzhu Peak——
“I am Zhou Nianchun, the elder of Tianzhu Peak in Taiyue Mountain. Today, I am here to ask the sword, and I will serve the list.”
“Please, the sword-asking cultivators of the Tianzui group take their seats. After half a stick of incense, will select the first sword-asking cultivator.
As soon as these words were spoken, after a brief moment of deathly silence on the Western Zhou spectator stand, the noisy hubbub and the chatter started to ring out once again.
However, at the same time as this hubbub sounded, in front of the rooms on the spectator stand, rune glows lit up one after another.
Immediately afterwards, the noisy Western Zhou was gradually blocked outside the rooms by these rune glows.
Seeing the cultivators on the Western Zhou spectator stand showing such excitement for this sword interrogation, Dongfang Yuejian couldn’t help but ask Mu Yun：
“Brother Mu Yun, among the thirty cultivators in this sword interrogation, could there be some big shot?”
Mu Yun was refined and gentle, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly as he said：
“Miss Dongfang has come at just the right time this time.”
In the increasingly feeling uncertain gaze of Dongfang Yuejian, Mu Yun didn’t play tricks anymore and continued:
“Among the sword interrogation cultivators in this group, there is Amon, the sword immortal of Zhenwu Heaven, and the second true body of Lin Qinggu, the Sect leader of Taihao Sect, Lin Qingnu.
When she heard that among the cultivators in this sword interrogation there was Amon of Zhenwu Heaven, Dongfang Yuejian’s eyes only lit up slightly, but when she heard that the second incarnation of the Taihao Sect was also among the sword interrogation cultivators in Dongfang Yuejian’s eyes, a shocked expression first appeared.
Immediately afterwards, she was heard murmuring：
“No wonder the number of cultivators who came to watch the battle today is so large.”
……
On the other side of the stands.
After hearing Elder Zhou’s shout, Zhao Linglong turned around reluctantly and looked at Xu Taiping and Zhao Linglong and said：
“Fairy Lingyue, little junior brother, I have to go down.”
Like Senior Amon and Lin Qingnu, she is also in this sword-questioning competition.
Fairy Lingyue smiled easily and waved to Zhao Linglong and said：
“Miss Linglong, your talent in the way of sword cultivation is far inferior to your spirit-inviting technique.”
Xu Taiping beside him echoed at this time：
“Sister, in today’s sword-questioning, you still have to show more of your strengths. The Sword Supreme Meeting doesn’t necessarily have to use the sword to determine the winner.”
The reason why Xu Taiping said this is because when he first left his body and wandered to the Barbarian Wilderness Ten Thousand Buddhas Kingdom in his primordial spirit, he happened to run into Zhao Linglong and used the spirit-inviting technique to invite out an extremely rare Red Armor God General.
With the cultivation base of the Divine Refinement Realm, inviting down the Red Armor God General is enough to prove that his Senior Sister Linglong has a strong talent in the spirit-inviting technique.
Zhao Linglong nodded very seriously and said：
“I will！”
As she spoke, Zhao Linglong was about to push open the door of the wing room, but just when she reached out her hand to the door, she suddenly thought of a question.
So she stopped, turned around and looked at Xu Taiping, and asked very seriously：
“Taiping, I’ve always wanted to ask you. Back then, when you were on the eleventh floor of the Mysterious Desolation Tower and hit the Heavenly Gate with your own body again and again, what were you really thinking in your heart？”
As if feeling that her question was not accurate enough, Zhao Linglong immediately asked Xu Taiping in another way：
“Or rather, what exactly supported you, Junior Brother, to hit that Heavenly Gate again and again, not afraid of death？”
Xu Taiping was stunned.
He really couldn’t imagine that his somewhat “carefree” little senior sister would ask him such a question one day.
Just as Xu Taiping was in a daze, the voice of Fairy Lingyue suddenly rang out in Xu Taiping’s mind —
“Your little senior sister Zhao Linglong seems to have some instability in her Dao heart. You must answer this question well.”
Upon hearing this, Xu Taiping’s heart suddenly tightened.
So after seriously thinking about it for a while, he then opened his mouth and replied, “Senior Sister Linglong, there was nothing else in my mind at that time. I just felt that that Heavenly Gate blocked my way, made me stop and not be able to move forward.”
“If I didn’t break it, Miss Nanxing, Old Zhang, and Zhai Mo, who were traveling with me, would have to leave his hometown.”
The tens of thousands of common people and cultivators in the Mysterious Desolation Heaven would become the livestock raised by the demons.”
Hearing this, Zhao Linglong still had a confused look on her face and said：
“But all of this has nothing to do with you, Taiping！”
Even if the Mysterious Desolate Heaven eventually becomes the territory of the Nine Abysses, Taiping you can still change to another place to cultivate.”
In her opinion, Xu Taiping’s reason was not sufficient.
Xu Taiping nodded and then continued：
“Senior Sister Linglong, you are right. All this has nothing to do with me.”
When saying this, Xu Taiping paused for a moment, and then continued with a hint of sternness in his eyes：
“This is not my wish！”
My friends, leaving their hometowns and dying in the hands of the Nine Abysses, is not my wish.
“The hundreds of millions of the people in the Mysterious Desolate Heaven to become the blood food of demons, nor is it my wish.”
Zhao Linglong retorted:
“But if you don’t wish it, what can you do？ That is the will of heaven, the might of heaven！”
“How can human power overcome the sky？”
Xu Taiping shook his head and said：
“Senior Sister, perhaps human power cannot overcome the sky.”
“But if we can’t even say the three words ‘I don’t wish it’, don’t even dare to punch, and don’t even dare to bump into the door, what’s the difference between you and me and the pigs and sheep in the pen?
“Today, the people of the Mysterious Desolate Heaven are suffering, and that heaven makes me bow my head and accept my fate.”
“I don’t wish it！”
This is not just because of sympathy for the people of the Mysterious Desolate Heaven, but also because I want to, on that day, in the True Martial Heaven, in the Green Profound Sect, when you and Second Senior Brother are suffering.”
“When the heavenly way makes me bow my head and accept my fate.”
“I can also do not bow my head and not accept my fate！”
When saying this, Xu Taiping paused for a moment, and then looked at Zhao Linglong with a smile and said：
“Senior Sister Linglong, since the moment I decided to hit the Heavenly Gate, my Tao has been complete.”
“As for whether I can break open the Heavenly Gate or not, it is no longer important.”
Zhao Linglong was stunned for a moment, and the originally somewhat confused eyes suddenly lit up.
I saw her standing there in a daze, murmuring in her mouth：
“Yes, whether the destiny can be violated or not, this is not important. The important thing is whether one dares to violate the destiny.”
“For any matter, if you yourself have retreated, it is no longer meaningful to discuss whether it can be done or not.”
When saying this, Zhao Linglong respectfully cupped her hands towards Xu Taiping and said：
“Little Junior Brother, Senior Sister has been taught.”
After saying these words, Zhao Linglong turned around and left without looking back, quickly walking towards the stage.
It can be seen that compared to before, Zhao Linglong’s steps were much lighter.
“Hua la la…”
And almost at the same time when Zhao Linglong went downstairs, on the stands in the west of the Sword Flat, there was suddenly a commotion sound.
Immediately afterwards, Xu Taiping, who was a little surprised, heard a cultivator from the True Martial Heaven shouting on the stand：
“Senior Amon, Senior Amon has really arrived！”
Xu Taiping and Fairy Lingyue both looked down, and then saw a middle-aged man with a Burly figure, carrying an invisible pressure, step by step walking towards the sword-asking cultivator seats below the Sword Flat.
Xu Taiping took a closer look and saw that this person was indeed Amon.
