After hearing this, Bai Hong was first stunned, as if guessing something, but then he had some doubts and said：
”Dare he？”
Upon hearing this, Uncle Jiu sighed and then shook his head and said：
”To be honest, I don’t have much confidence either.”
Bai Hong thought for a while, and finally nodded. He solemnly cupped his hands towards Uncle Jiu and said, “Then I’ll wait for another three years. During these three years, I hope Uncle Jiu can take care of my stupid son.”
”He’ll be fine following Taiping.”
Uncle Jiu shook his head with a smile and said.
Bai Hong nodded, and then suddenly looked at Uncle Jiu solemnly and said：
”I have another question and want to ask Uncle Jiu.”
”Ask, I’m in a good mood tonight.”
Uncle Jiu nodded.
”Why didn’t you die, Uncle Jiu？”
Bai Hong looked at Uncle Jiu with a confused look in his eyes.
”That day in the Northland, you suffered a fatal injury.”
He then added another sentence.
“Have you ever thought that the Lu Jianjiu who went to the Northern Realm with you that day has actually died.”
Uncle Jiu looked at Bai Hong, a sly smile on his face.
Upon hearing this, Bai Hong’s face suddenly showed a look of horror.
But immediately, only to hear Uncle Jiu laugh heartily again and say：
“You are still too honest. You believe whatever others say.”
……
“Why… didn’t I die？”
“I didn’t die？”
“No, I died.”
“No, no, I’m not dead yet.”
Mo Wang Peak of Qing Xuan Sect.
In an unnamed underground cave.
The drunk Lu Jianjiu, while walking heavily down the steps, muttered something foul-mouthed.
And the steps leading to the underground under his feet seemed to have no end. He walked for a long time and still couldn’t finish.
When a cool wind blew from the ground and made Lu Jianjiu shiver, he suddenly woke up and said, “Why did I come here？”
“Forget it, there is still half a pot of wine left. Let’s go and see my senior brother.”
He shook the wine pot in his hand, and then jumped off the cliff on one side of the steps and directly jumped into the dark bottom of the cave.
“Plop！ ……”
About half a stick of incense time later, Lu Jianjiu fell into the bottom of the cave like this and almost fell on his face.
“Haven’t come for a long time. I even forgot that I should land with my left foot first.”
He patted his butt and stood up.
“Fortunately, the wine didn’t spill. Otherwise, senior brother might not even be willing to see me.”
Lu Jianjiu cherished his wine gourd very much and then walked towards a cave entrance that was flashing red light.
“Zheng！ ……”
When he was about to approach the cave entrance, a flying sword hanging from Lu Jianjiu’s waist flew out of its sheath automatically, and the sword tip pointed directly at the cave entrance.
At the same time, strands of pure sword energy circulated around Lu Jianjiu’s body like flames, and an invisible might instantly covered the entire cave.
“Youngest, come back. I’m so old and still need you to protect me. Senior brother will laugh at me.”
Lu Jianjiu said and walked straight past the flying sword without looking back.
The flying sword that he called the youngest, after emitting a soft chirp, flew back to the sword sheath very obediently.
While speaking, Lu Jianjiu had already come to the cave entrance.
This cave entrance was blocked by a round iron ball with a diameter of about one zhang. Through the gap between the iron ball and the cave entrance, strands of crimson blood mist could be seen overflowing from it.
These blood mists tried to twine around Lu Jianjiu’s body, but were quickly burned clean by his sword energy like a flame.
Immediately, those blood mists retreated into the cave.
Lu Jianjiu didn’t even look at this, and only set his gaze on the huge iron ball blocking the door.
I saw that there were two lines of big characters engraved on the huge iron ball –
“The Youxuan Cave, those who trespass will die.”
Looking at those two lines of vigorous and powerful handwriting, Lu Jianjiu grinned and said with a smile：
“My handwriting when I was young was really not bad.”
And at this moment, a hoarse but extremely powerful voice came from the cave –
“Xiao Jiu, why did you come again? Didn’t you come here just a few years ago? This is not a good place. Even if you come here too often, your mind will be eroded.”
As soon as he heard this, Lu Jianjiu immediately put away the cynicism on his face.
“Senior Brother, the remaining half pot of wine hasn’t been finished, and it’s very boring to drink alone.”
Lu Jianjiu said very seriously.
“How old are you already and still haven’t learned to drink alone? Come in.”
The voice coming from the cave suddenly became much softer.
At the same time, the huge sphere began to slowly move away from the cave entrance under the pull of several chains.
After the cave opening was opened, a cold and bone-chilling cold wind blew towards the face, and gusts of blood mist scrambled to fly out of the cave.
“Boom！”
But as Lu Jianjiu took a step forward, the sword energy around his body like a flame then firmly sealed the cave opening like a wall.
Enter the cave.
What came into view was still a blood-red color.
The blood mist was even thicker and could not be dissipated like water, and it was no longer as afraid of Lu Jianjiu’s sword energy as it was outside.
When staying in it, you could even faintly hear some whispering sounds, but when you listened carefully, these sounds disappeared again.
After walking through a long and narrow passage, Lu Jianjiu finally came to the inside of the cave.
Except for the same blood-red color.
It became even colder here.
It was so cold that when you opened your mouth, the water vapor in your mouth could condense into ice.
It also became bigger.
The high dome and the open space were like a huge palace.
Of course, the most eye-catching ones were the nine coffins lying horizontally in the cave, the huge iron balls one by one, and the huge bronze door at the end of the cave.
