Xie Dong raised his eyes, looked at the sect disciple in front of him for a moment, and replied, "Peak Foundation Establishment, it is possible to condense the essence at any time, and it is never too late. I'm afraid you I don't believe in myself."

"Thank you, Sect Leader, for your encouragement." Yang Wanshu bowed after hearing his words and deeds, then turned and left.

He walked so simply that Xie Dong was stunned.Was it really just to ask a question?Xie Dong got up and walked to the window, looked at Yang Wanshu's back, but saw Yang Wanshu walking in the direction of He Xiuyuan's hut again.

Xie Dong didn't know what Yang Wanshu and He Xiuyuan said later, he only knew that after that day, Yang Wanshu locked himself in the cave and never saw anyone else again.

And the upsurge of disciples leaving the sect finally came to an end two days later.Originally there were more than 130 disciples in total, about 90 of them left, and only nearly [-] stayed.For a sect, the sharp reduction in the number of people to two-thirds can be regarded as a terrible loss.

In those few days, a gloomy atmosphere pervaded Yuyumen.

Only Xie Dong, as usual, gathered the remaining disciples as if nothing had happened, distributed the elixir seeds he purchased before, and led them to start cultivating and planting.

They surveyed the land of the entire mountain, and finally chose a place on the back of the mountain to reclaim it as a field, and planted the selected seeds in turn.In such busyness, all the disciples gradually forgot about the misty clouds and mist before, and one or two threw themselves into it.Under such circumstances, Xie Dong's behavior as always really reassured them a lot.

But Xie Dong knew that in fact, his heart was far from being so indifferent.

"There are still 89 people left... 74 for qi refining, and only 40 for foundation building?" That night, he silently counted the names on the roster in his study again, "Although there are only more than [-] people who left, But about half of it is Foundation Establishment."

After counting, he shook his head, sighed, put the roster aside, and began to study the planted land again.

But the fact that the number of disciples in the sect had dropped sharply still lingered in his mind.Why does he still care so much about these numbers?Clearly, when he uttered the words "never stay", he was fully prepared mentally, and he believed that it would not be a pity even if all the disciples of the sect were gone.

Xie Dong thought of this and yawned.I haven't rested for a few days, even the body of Ning Yuanqi can't bear it, and the words in front of me start to become a little blurry.Xie Dong simply put down the book in his hand and lay down on the bed.No matter what state you are in, sleep is the best way to supplement your spirit after exhaustion.

Then he had a dream.

In the dream, the Yuyu Sect did not have another condensed element for a whole year.Yang Wanshu stayed at the peak of foundation establishment all his life, and finally pointed to Xie Dong's nose and shouted "You can talk big words", and died directly.The remaining [-] or so disciples of the sect followed Xie Dong all the way through the hardships, and finally couldn't bear it anymore, they didn't want to believe any of Xie Dong's words, and chose to leave the sect one by one, even Chang Yongyi left.Xie Dong was lonely, silently holding the roster that was empty of a single disciple, and walked towards the small thatched hut near the former head, thinking that at least there would be a senior brother to guard this sect to the end.As a result, there was no thatched cottage at all, and even He Xiuyuan's shadow could not be found, as if this person never existed in the world.

Immediately afterwards, Xie Dong woke up.

It's so evil, how could he dream of such a ghost?As soon as Xie Dong opened his eyes, he felt something was wrong, and quickly patted his face with both hands, only to find that his hands were still dripping with sweat.Only then did he realize that he was still awakened by this dream.

Xie Dong stared at the sweat on his palms, and didn't come back to his senses for a while.

Was the scene in the dream really that scary to him?Didn't he have no choice but to fight for the position of master to himself in order to ensure his better survival?In Xie Dong's heart, Yuyumen should be ranked after him.

He rubbed his palms against himself, wiping away the sweat.But as long as the scenes in the dream are recalled in the mind, the sweat in the palm of the hand will come out again.The thought that Yuyumen might end in his hands seems to be more terrifying than his own end.

"So that's how it is." Xie Dong laughed at himself, "Isn't it just a simple shelter? Before I knew it, I had invested so much."

It was still late at night outside, but Xie Dong could no longer fall asleep.

He glanced at the books on the table again, feeling restless and unable to read them at all.In the end, he simply put on his clothes and went out, walking all the way in the direction of the former head of the cave.The small thatched cottage was still there, quietly falling under the moonlight, Xie Dong was inexplicably relieved.

But what is he doing here in the middle of the night?

Because he was greatly disturbed by a nightmare, so he came to seek comfort from the elder brother?It's so embarrassing, it's like a joke.

Xie Dong shook his head, and was about to turn around and go back.But at this time, a gust of wind blew open the door of the thatched cottage.Xie Dong glanced in from the corner of his eye, but there was no one inside.

Swish, Xie Dong's footsteps suddenly stopped.He turned back again, ran to the door of the thatched cottage, and looked inside, but there was really no one there.He reached out and knocked on the door several times, and there was silence inside.In the end, he pushed the door open and entered, but there was no one inside.

Xie Dong retreated, found the disciples who were watching the night, and asked them if they knew where the elder brother had gone.

The disciple shook his head, expressing that he didn't know.

Xie Dong somehow recalled the dream just now, and the hairs all over his body exploded.Are you kidding, without a single Elder Feng, it would be like this, if the elder brother is gone, what will this sect be like?

"Master, are you looking for senior brother?" That disciple happened to be an old student from eight years ago. Seeing that Xie Dong's expression was not right at this moment, he told him, "At a time like this, senior brother is alone. Outside. Will be back in the morning."

After finishing speaking, the disciple turned around and continued to watch the night.Before leaving, he raised his hand and pointed to the sky.

Xie Dong looked up and saw a full moon in the sky.He didn't know what the relationship between Yuan Yue and He Xiuyuan went outside suddenly, and he was a little confused for a while.

After a while, he remembered something.

When he asked He Xiuyuan to go to Linlangji together, He Xiuyuan specifically asked him how many days it would take, and he readily agreed after getting a reply of only three or four days, and said, "As long as you can come back before the night of the fifteenth full moon, there will be no question".

Xie Dong couldn't figure it out, and decided to wait until he saw He Xiuyuan tomorrow and then try to ask.

Then he still had nothing to do, and he didn't want to go back to the study so soon, so he simply got up with his sword and flew to the sky to blow the wind.

As soon as he flew, he found that there seemed to be a little strange mana fluctuation outside the mountain gate.Afterwards, Xie Dong searched carefully, and finally found a round object in a hidden ravine, which was golden and shaped like a cocoon.

Xie Dong took a closer look in surprise, and immediately twitched the corners of his mouth.

That cocoon is naturally not a natural product, but what it looks like after a bunch of magic circles are activated.Xie Dong could even tell what kind of formation was activated, because all the formations he used were stored in the warehouse of Yuyumen, and even the way of using them was very reminiscent of the previous master.Looking at its intensity, it was obviously inspired by the monks in the Condensation Stage.

In this way, the answer is very clear who used a bunch of formations to wrap a cocoon here.

What exactly is He Xiuyuan doing?Where are others?

Xie Dong approached, and just about to call out to Senior Brother, he heard a slight panting sound from inside the pile of formations.Could it be that senior brother wrapped himself in a cocoon?But this panting sound is unusual, it seems a little hasty, and it has a different kind of stickiness, but it is very depressing.

Just at this time, the first ray of dawn lit up in the sky.

The person in the cocoon let out a long sigh of relief, raised his hand and put away the formation, just in time to see Xie Dong who hadn't had time to leave.

Xie Dong coughed and sized up the person in front of him.He Xiuyuan was alone, and he was dressed very neatly, but his face was a little pale.

"Big brother," Xie Dong asked him, "what are you doing?"
