Su Su: “When I met that Xu Miaoyan, she was being pestered by the young master of Xunhuan Valley. I rescued her and hid her. So I want to lead that young master of Xunhuan Valley to Xu Miaoyan’s ship when the little lunatic appears. Then we’ll see if the little lunatic saves her or not.”
Seeing this, Xu Taiping frowned again.
”Calling me a lunatic, you guys are the real lunatics who stop at nothing to achieve their goals.”
Xu Taiping thought like this and then continued to look at the jade plate.
The matter these people are talking about right now is very important to whether he can return to Qingxuan smoothly.
Yuelao: “A lecherous person like the little lunatic will naturally not let go of this opportunity to play the hero and save the beauty. Maybe he will be overcome by lust on the spot.”
Blood Hand: “This plan is feasible, but the timing must be grasped well. Don’t let the young master of Xunhuan Valley humiliate Xu Miaoyan before the little lunatic comes.”
Su Su: “Boss, don’t worry. I will arrange everything properly.”
Black Dog: “If Gu Yun can find that kid in the Barbaric Region and send us a message in advance, we will have much more time to prepare.”
Susu: “That’s right. There’s no need to be a day in advance. Even an hour in advance would be good.”
Blood Hand: “The Thousand Buddha Kingdom has a vast territory. Gu Yun may not be able to find him. Moreover, it takes three days for the jade plate to transmit the message. We should still be prepared for the situation where no message is transmitted back.”
Matchmaker: “Tut tut tut, Brother Gu Yun really got a good deal in this business.”
After watching for a while longer and finding that it was all just chatting among those people Xu Taiping then took his Line of sight back from the jade plate.
”To kill me, these people really went to great lengths. Who on earth is that mysterious person who offered the reward for me? What about me is worth him spending so much effort.”
The more Xu Taiping thought about it, the more he felt strange.
He felt faintly in his heart that during these three years when he was cultivating in the Thousand Buddha Kingdom. something might have happened in Qingxuan.
After having this thought, his desire to rush back to Qingxuan became even more urgent.
But reason told him that he must never go back like this. It’s unclear.
”Taiping, what are you going to do?”
Fairy Lingyue also finished reading the conversation of those assassins on the jade plate at this time.
”You already know their plan. It’s not difficult to escape.”
She then added.
”But if we don’t figure out who that mysterious person who wants to kill me is, I’m afraid the whole journey back to Qingxuan won’t be peaceful.”
Xu Taiping shook his head.
“So you want to turn the tables and catch these assassins to inquire about the mysterious person?”
Fairy Lingyue asked.
“These people have mysterious identities and their whereabouts are hard to predict. If I give up this opportunity, it will be like looking for a needle in a haystack to find them again.”
Xu Taiping nodded.
“Is there no other reason?”
As if seeing through Xu Taiping, Fairy Lingyue said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Xu Taiping scratched his head and then smiled sheepishly and said:
“These people are really too unscrupulous in their actions. They have killed so many innocent people and also planned to ruin the innocence of that ignorant woman. I can’t bear to watch.”
“This is the little Taiping I know.”
Fairy Lingyue said with a smile and patted Xu Taiping on the shoulder.
And just after Xu Taiping and Fairy Lingyue talked for a while about cultivation, his chest suddenly felt hot.
He reached out and took it out to see, and found that it was actually that communication jade slip that hadn’t moved for a long time.
This jade slip was exactly the one left by the cultivator surnamed Liu who was killed by that strange eye in the broken temple on the first day of entering Thousand Buddha Kingdom.
At that time, it was thanks to this communication jade slip that allowed him to learn in advance the news that Yun Zhong and the others were going to encircle him in the Star-Picking Tower.
It’s just that after that, this jade slip didn’t light up again.
“Who would still come to look for that cultivator surnamed Liu?”
While thinking this, Xu Taiping channeled a strand of true essence into the jade slip.
Immediately, a woman’s voice came from within the jade slip——
“Senior Brother, I’ve finally found a way to avenge you. Don’t worry, Senior Brother. After Miao Yan avenges you, I’ll go back to the mountain and cultivate well. In the future, when I achieve success in cultivation, I’ll travel all over the mountains and rivers of the True Martial Heaven on your behalf.”
Upon hearing this voice, Xu Taiping was stunned for a moment.
After a long while, he then said with a bitter smile:
“I didn’t expect that this Xu Miaoyan would actually be the junior sister of that cultivator with the surname Liu.”
Then, he turned his head and asked Fairy Lingyue:
“Sister Lingyue, is this really a coincidence?”
Fairy Lingyue looked back at the vast territory of the Thousand Buddha Kingdom, and then shook her head and said: “Before, we were not too willing to have too much involvement with the Zen Sect because they pay too much attention to cause and effect. Even if you pick up a stone in front of their temple, it may become a karmic obstacle on your path of cultivation in the future.”
Having said this, she looked back at Xu Taiping and said:
In the universe under the Dharma, there is only cause and effect, there is no coincidence.
Upon hearing this, Xu Taiping suddenly felt a bit chilly on his back, as if there was a pair of eyes staring at him from behind.
“However, whether to save or not still depends on you, Taiping.”
Fairy Lingyue then smiled at Xu Taiping.
Xu Taiping thought for a moment, and then nodded solemnly and said:
”Help!”
Then he added another sentence:
”But it has nothing to do with any karma. It’s just that I want to save by myself.”
……
On the Wu Yi River.
A woman with a graceful figure, a pair of peach blossom eyes, and a cold face was sitting on the bow of a black awning boat.
Even if she doesn’t smile, she is still breathtakingly beautiful.
”Senior Brother, in their eyes, you are an insignificant person, but if it weren’t for you, I, your junior sister, would have starved to death in the mountains long ago. So I must avenge your hatred.”
The woman murmured in a low voice, and the hand holding the short sword was constantly trembling.
Just now, she received the news that the little lunatic who killed her senior brother would pass by here today.
And that person is lustful by nature. After seeing her, he will definitely get on the boat.
”Sizzle… Huff…”
In order to calm herself down, the woman took a deep breath and then exhaled.
”Boom!”
Just at this time, a gust of wind stirred up by the fluctuation of breath came out from the lake.
The woman was first startled, and then overjoyed:
”Finally here!”
However, when she turned her head and looked, the expression on her face suddenly froze, and then she said in disbelief: “Why is it you?!”
”Little beauty, who else could it be if not me?”
A young man with a slender figure and a strange smile on his lips flew down to the bow of the boat against the wind.
”This time, let’s see how you escape from my palm.”
The young man raised his hand, and layers of water curtains rose, wrapped the entire black-awning boat.
Despair was immediately written all over the woman’s eyes.
