After hearing Qin Lan's words, Ji Xiuzhu nodded silently.
"Second brother, what about you?"
After asking about the injured, Ji Xiuzhu turned around and asked Mo Yunyu the next second.
Mo Yunyu dealt with these minions, but there was a big boss behind them.
The big boss behind the little minion is now flying in the air with a group of Nascent Soul cultivators.
Mo Yunyu looked at the group of people in the air with a serious expression, and said in a deep voice: "Master, it seems that things are not going so smoothly here. There are a group of people above our heads, which makes people feel a little headache."
Upon hearing this, Ji Xiuzhu curled his lips and frowned: "The one who gave you a headache, could it be that the other party is a strong man in the middle level realm?"
Mo Yunyu heard this, but shook his head and said: "No, he is just an early stage of Refining Void with a group of peak Nascent Soul."
Ji Xiuzhu tightened his collar and said, "Hearing you say that, it does seem a bit tricky."
After saying that, Ji Xiuzhu slowly took a step forward and said to the leader in the air: "Sir, I'm afraid it's a bit tiring to make such a big fuss, right?"
After Ji Xiuzhu finished speaking, Mo Yunyu's hand flashed with light, and he took out a long sword, the sword body flashing with a sharp cold light.
But when Qin Lan saw the long sword that Mo Yunyu summoned, she was obviously stunned.
His second senior brother always liked to use the Gentleman Sword, but now he uses the Frost Sword. Could it be that the Gentleman Sword has fallen out of favor?
Qin Lan was just thinking about this when he saw the unconscious person on the ground slowly waking up. In a daze, he saw a group of powerful monks in the air. He was so frightened that he sat up instantly.
After he sat up, he stared at Ji Xiuzhu's back for a few seconds. When he saw that Ji Xiuzhu's eyes were covered with a veil, the figure of the fairy sister he met outside Yungui City in his memory instantly overlapped with Ji Xiuzhu's figure.
"You saved me? Thank you, Fairy Sister!"
After he finished speaking, his face was covered with black ash, and he kowtowed heavily towards Ji Xiuzhu's back.
When Ji Xiuzhu heard this, he was a little surprised, but it only flashed through his mind.
She didn't look back, after all, she wouldn't be able to see even if she looked back, but since someone thanked the wrong person, she still had to correct him.
So she raised her hand and pointed at Qin Lan who was standing beside her and said, "The person who saved you from the fire was not me, but my third disciple. If you want to thank someone, you should thank him."
Upon hearing this, the man quickly turned around and bowed to Qin Lan: "Thank you, brother, for saving my life!"
Qin Lan heard this and waved her hands embarrassedly.
"You're welcome. It's just a simple matter."
After Qin Lan finished speaking, her proud little head secretly raised a little.
The leader in the air sneered when he saw this: "I see that you are monks passing by, so I advise you. If you leave now, I will forgive you. Otherwise, you all stay with me forever."
Before he finished speaking, he waved his hand to signal the monks behind him to prepare for the attack.
Ji Xiuzhu's ears twitched when he heard this, and then he said lightly: "Thirty people, what a big deal."
After listening to Ji Xiuzhu's words, Qin Lan pointed her finger at the people in the air and started counting them.
"Seventeen, eighteen... twenty-five, twenty-six, twenty-seven, twenty-eight, twenty-nine, three... ten! Wow, Master, you are so amazing! Master, can't you really see? How can you know so clearly that there are thirty people in total?"
Qin Lan moved closer to Ji Xiuzhu, blinking her eyes and couldn't help staring at Ji Xiuzhu's profile.
Ji Xiuzhu raised his hand and gave Qin Lan a slap, then said with a depressed look: "Didn't your master punish you to copy the classics on the first floor of the Sutra Library? How come you can't even remember "Reading the Numbers by Looking at the Breath"? "
Upon hearing this, Qin Lan remembered that he had indeed copied "Looking at the Breath to Know the Numbers" twice, but he thought it was useless, so he only read it but did not take it to heart.
Hearing Ji Xiuzhu's admonition, Qin Lan scratched her head in embarrassment and said, "Master is teaching me that I was careless and didn't know this method. After I go back, I will make up for it!"
Qin Lan spoke righteously, but Ji Xiuzhu was speechless.
"Sir, I am a reasonable person. I don't know which sect you are from? Why would twenty or thirty of you attack a powerless person?" Ji Xiuzhu tugged at his sleeves and said nonchalantly.
The leader was a little angry when he heard this, but seeing that Ji Xiuzhu and his companions had high cultivation, he thought of convincing them with reason first.
So, after his eyes rolled around in his sockets for a few times, he spoke to Ji Xiuzhu, "This man is a traitor from Zhicao City. Nine days ago, he stole the Soul Returning Fruit, the most precious treasure of Lord Guanghan from the City Lord's Mansion. Therefore, we are following Lord Guanghan's order to kill him on the spot."
Ji Xiuzhu didn't hear clearly what the man said, but she heard a key word, which was the Soul-Returning Fruit.
So, Ji Xiuzhu quickly turned around and stared at the person he had just rescued through the veil in front of him with his invisible eyes.
When Mo Yunyu heard this, he changed his expression and turned to look at that person.
Upon seeing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Mo Yunyu's eyes.
Because that person was the young man who showed him the direction of Mengqi Pavilion outside Yungui City that day.
However, compared to that day, the boy was now dressed very appropriately, without the slightest hint of shabbyness.
Ji Xiuzhu noticed something was wrong with Mo Yunyu, so he tilted his head and asked him, "Second Brother, have you seen him?"
After hearing Ji Xiuzhu's words, Mo Yunyu nodded calmly: "Yes. Not only have I seen it, but Master has also seen it."
Ji Xiuzhu was stunned when he heard this.
Then she moved a little closer to the boy, slowly squatted down, and her nose moved slightly.
Suddenly, a faint medicinal fragrance came over, and Ji Xiuzhu then remembered the day when they were outside Yungui City, when the guide spoke a little coldly to her but was actually a warm-hearted person.
Ji Xiuzhu stretched out her hand and was about to speak, but the young man got there first. The young man held Ji Xiuzhu's hand with both hands, then blinked his big, kazilan eyes and pleaded with Ji Xiuzhu: "Fairy sister! Please save me for the sake of showing you the way that day!"
Ji Xiuzhu did not respond, but Qin Lan, who was standing nearby, hurriedly stepped forward and pushed the boy away, and even raised her hand to slap the boy's hand that was holding Ji Xiuzhu's.
"You scoundrel! My master hasn't even spoken yet, but you're already making a move! If you dare disrespect my master again, I'll beat you to death!"
After Qin Lan finished speaking, she clenched her fist and pressed it in front of the boy, looking threatening.
Seeing this, the young man hurriedly explained: "No, no, the fairy sister is so kind, how dare I disrespect the fairy sister. It's just that my life is in danger and I want to find a way to save my life."
After he finished speaking, he took out a bunch of bottles and jars and stuffed them into Ji Xiuzhu's hands, saying, "I am an idle alchemist. These are the fifth-grade elixirs I made. As long as Fairy Sister is willing to help me, I will give them all to you!"
Ji Xiuzhu touched the bottles and jars scattered on her robe, each of which exuded an alluring medicinal fragrance. Only then did she believe that the young man was an alchemist.
She put the bottles and jars into her storage bag one by one, then coughed twice tactically and said, "Second Brother, I think that group of people are very noisy. You can do whatever you want. Since I can't see them, I won't restrict you from doing anything."
After saying that, Ji Xiuzhu pulled the young man aside.
Seeing that Ji Xiuzhu had spoken, Mo Yunyu tapped the ground with his toes and flew into the air.
He held the Frost Sword in his hand, his eyes full of displeasure.
He felt a little jealous when he thought of Ji Xiuzhu casually holding the hand of a strange man.
The leader of the other side swallowed his saliva instantly when he saw Mo Yunyu could fly into the air without flying the sword.
He asked Mo Yunyu tentatively, "Sir, are you a cultivator in the Spiritual Transformation Realm?"
Mo Yunyu did not answer, but his eyes focused and he instantly swung a sword at the person in front of him.
The power of frost can freeze thousands of miles.
When the sword is drawn, the four seas roar.
Mo Yunyu just swung his sword, and those Nascent Soul cultivators who had no time to summon up a protective barrier and had no protective magic weapon were frozen by the frost and ice one by one and fell from the air.
After seeing Mo Yunyu's sword, the leader was so frightened that his forehead was instantly covered with cold sweat.
He originally thought that Mo Yunyu was only in the Spirit Transformation Realm, and that the cultivators he brought with him could easily kill Mo Yunyu in a group fight.
But if he didn't have a magic weapon to protect himself from Mo Yunyu's sword just now, he would have gone to the underworld to meet the King of Hell like those "ice sculptures".
"Sir, let's make a deal. We only want that boy, and we work for Lord Guanghan. If Lord Guanghan knew that you and your group killed us, he might even seek revenge on you."
He tried his best to defend himself and kept watching Mo Yunyu's every move.
He tried to offer further bribery when Mo Yunyu's expression relaxed a little.
After all, whether to fight or not is a small matter, but losing one's life is a big matter.
As a qualified monk, you naturally have to understand that saving your life comes first.
Mo Yunyu didn't say anything, but turned and looked at Ji Xiuzhu.
The atmosphere on Mo Yunyu's side was cold and chilly, but on Ji Xiuzhu's side it was a little lively.
Ji Xiuzhu asked: "Well, I want to ask you, are you really an alchemy practitioner?"
The young man replied, "Of course. I have been learning the Dao of Alchemy since I was four years old, and I am already a famous alchemist in the Far North."
As the young man spoke, his brows were filled with unconcealable pride, and even with the black dust on his face, it was not difficult to tell that the young man was quite confident about alchemy.
Ji Xiuzhu pointed at the group of cultivators who were chasing the boy and asked, "Are they trying to capture you because you are an alchemist? Or are they trying to hunt you down because you stole the Soul-Returning Fruit from Guanghan Jun?"
The young man curled his lips when he heard this.
He wanted to answer this question, but he was afraid that Ji Xiuzhu and others knew Guanghan Jun, and if he did that, he would be in danger.
Perhaps sensing the boy's thoughts, Ji Xiuzhu tightened his collar and said, "You don't have to be so defensive against me. Since you have seen me in Yungui City, you should know that I am not a native of the Far North. In other words, you can rest assured that I will not sell you out."
The young man saw that Ji Xiuzhu was sincere in his words, but he still had some doubts about what Ji Xiuzhu said.
Seeing that he was frowning, Qin Lan walked up to him and, imitating Ji Xiuzhu's behavior, gave the boy a slap on the head.
"Why are you so stubborn? Don't you think about it? If we were that Jun's men, would we have gone through the trouble of rescuing you from the fire and fighting those people here?"
When the young man heard this, his eyes froze, and then he looked up at Mo Yunyu who was stuck in the air, and the group of people who were chasing him.
He dropped his eyes instantly.
Qin Lan thought he would keep silent, so just as she was about to rub her hands together, she saw the young man suddenly look up, with a hint of determination in his eyes.
"I didn't steal it! The Soul-Returning Fruit originally belonged to my clan. It was snatched away by that old bastard Guanghanjun many years ago. I am a descendant of my clan, so I wanted to take the Soul-Returning Fruit back. But..."
Having said that, the boy couldn't help biting his lips, his face full of resentment.
Ji Xiuzhu noticed the boy's mood, so he sighed helplessly and said, "It seems that you didn't succeed."
The young man nodded, a trace of desolation flashed in his eyes: "I found the place where the Soul-Returning Fruit is hidden, but the old man Guanghan Jun is very powerful, I am no match for him..."
Ji Xiuzhu patted the boy's shoulder and consoled him, "Don't be sad. It's really embarrassing for a pill cultivator like you to fight a sword cultivator."
The young man was actually touched when he heard this. He looked up at Ji Xiuzhu with eyes full of joy of meeting a close friend.
But the next second, Ji Xiuzhu changed the subject and said, "According to what you said, the Soul-Returning Fruit is still in the hands of Guanghan Jun, but why did those people who were chasing you spread the word that you had stolen the Soul-Returning Fruit?"
Hearing this, the young man lowered his eyes and sighed, "Alas, it's that old man Guanghan. He was afraid that I would spread his previous deeds and affect his reputation, so he was so angry that he sent people to hunt me down.
I have been hiding here for nine days, and I was planning to return home today, but who would have thought that they would target me when I went out yesterday, and when I was not prepared, they used a despicable trick to knock me down, and then wanted to burn me to death!"
After the boy finished speaking, he suddenly realized that he had lost his composure, so he calmed down a little.
He said to Ji Xiuzhu: "Thank you, fairy sister, for saving my life. If I have the chance someday, I will definitely invite you to be a guest of our clan and ask grandma to prepare delicious food for you."
Qin Lan heard this and asked, "You, aren't you going back to get the Soul-Returning Fruit?"
When Ji Xiuzhu heard Qin Lan's question, he instantly gave him a thumbs up in his heart.
Qin Lan's questions were getting better and better. She asked everything that was on her mind.
The young man heard this and shook his head at Qin Lan: "No, that Guanghan Jun is cunning by nature. I have failed once before. If I go back again, it will be like walking into a trap. I think he will not put the Soul Returning Fruit far away again. He will definitely move it to another place."
Ji Xiuzhu agreed, but she always felt something was strange.
After all, what the boy said was flawless and logically clear, just like a genius of sophistry.
Qin Lan didn't find anything wrong. He stepped forward, patted the boy on the shoulder and said, "You are right. Since Guanghan Jun can send people to kill you, I think he will definitely not let it go. So, you should go back to your clan. It is safe there."
At the same time, the battle in the air was coming to an end. Mo Yunyu, with his own strength, turned all the Nascent Soul cultivators brought by the leader into "ice sculptures".
The leader had obvious wounds all over his body, but Mo Yunyu was too powerful and he had no way to deal with him.
At this moment, Mo Yunyu couldn't help but look back at Ji Xiuzhu.
The leader also noticed it, and at the critical moment, in order to survive, he had no choice but to give it a try.
Besides, Ji Xiuzhu is just a blind man, so he doesn't pose any threat to him.
So, he raised his sword, dodged, and before anyone could react, he put the sword on Ji Xiuzhu's neck.
Qin Lan was about to take action when the leader thrust his sword close to Ji Xiuzhu's neck and shouted, "If you don't want her to die, stay away!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Lan's hand holding Qian Fu Jian immediately dropped down obediently, and she even took a few steps back.
Seeing this, the young man was also frightened by the sudden appearance of the leader. When he saw Ji Xiuzhu being kidnapped, his outstretched hand was trembling.
"Don't mess around! You, you, you, let Fairy Sister go!"
