Outside the bamboo forest garden, no one spoke.
Meng Yijue's eyes slowly moved down, staring fixedly at the ground.
In the robe not far away, the shapeless flesh and blood is the dead An Jinhua himself.
This time... An Jinhua is really dead.He was defeated by Ling Yuan's sword, and Ling Yuan's sword energy pierced through every corner of his body from the inside to the outside, blowing him up beyond recognition and leaving him dead.
Meng Yijue stared blankly for a few seconds, feeling relieved, and his stomach churned again, feeling a little nauseous.
Seeing that the master's expression was not looking good, Ling Yuan put away his sword, walked over quickly, and helped him to sit on the big stone at the gate of the courtyard.
"Master, are you okay?"
Meng Yijue closed his eyes, and it took him a while to expel the terrifying picture from his mind, and said softly: "It's nothing, I just... look a little uncomfortable."
Ling Yuan stroked his back, "Master, don't look at it. That pile of things is really disgusting."
Seeing that the master was pale and still a little weak, the young man rolled his eyes, and suddenly took out two small porcelain bottles from his pocket, holding one left and one right in his hands, "Master, look at this."
Meng Yijue took a look, and saw that the two small bottles were surrounded by complicated mantras, obviously they were not ordinary bottles, but like magical artifacts from the pile of materials sent by Zi Yun.
Sure enough, Ling Yuan said softly: "I got these from the warehouse. One is a soul vessel and the other is a pill vessel."
Soul vessel and pill vessel?Meng Yijue was taken aback, probably...
"This is a soul vessel." Ling Yuan shook one of the small gourd-shaped bottles, "The moment I killed An Jinhua, I pulled out his seven souls and six souls from his body, and imprisoned him in the So, if the soul is captured, An Jinhua will live forever and cannot be reincarnated, and can only be trapped in this little hell to be tortured and finally wiped out."
Meng Yijue nodded slightly.The souls of cultivators are usually stronger than ordinary people, and some cultivators will reincarnate with the memories of their previous lives after they pass away.Ling Yuan's move was also to cut the grass and roots, in case An Jinhua reincarnated as an adult by chance, and would come back to trouble her after many years.
Ling Yuan took out another small bottle and stuffed it into Master's hand.
"Master, this is for you."
"For me?"
"Well. In this alchemy dish, there is An Jinhua's inner alchemy." The young man smiled, "An Jinhua caused the master's inner alchemy to shatter and lose his cultivation, and now his inner alchemy is taken out by me with the devouring technique." , use it as compensation to Master, okay?"
Meng Yijue looked at the small bottle in his hand, feeling the heavy, warm and lively touch, "But, I can't use his inner alchemy directly..."
"Master, can't you absorb the devilish energy in me?" Ling Yuan told him softly, "I will eat An Jinhua's inner alchemy, and then transfer the spirit energy to Master, so Master can use it. An Jinhua Although Jinhua has committed many evils, his cultivation base is quite profound, and Master has definitely benefited from it."
Meng Yijue nodded, "Well, good."
The two looked at each other, looked at each other and smiled.
"Master, finally revenge, are you happy?"
The corners of Meng Yijue's lips rose, his expression relaxed, "Lingyuan, thank you."
Ling Yuan put his fingers into her palms, and the two sat on the big rock by the yard with their fingers intertwined, watching the crowd silently.
And the cultivators of Zifeng Mountain, after the initial shock, saw An Jinhua lying dead on the ground, and they all dared to discuss it.
"Hey, An Jinhua is really dishonest, he escaped from the ice cave! Fortunately, he died in Zhulinyuan. If he is allowed to go unpunished, I don't know how many people will be harmed!"
"Yeah, this An Jinhua, living is not worry-free, and dying is so disgusting, vomit..."
"An Jinhua's character is low, and he does many evils. He used to bully ordinary monks and disciples like us when he was the master of our peak. Now that he has died so ugly, he really deserves it!"
A group of monks surrounded An Jinhua, spat at him, and vented their hatred to their heart's content.
Meng Yijue watched the people's movements with mixed emotions in his heart.
Killing, punishing one's heart, nothing more than this.
An Jin Huacheng's mansion is quite deep, and he has done every step of the way. He has done all kinds of evil things and played everyone around.
This scheming conspirator spent his whole life plotting tricks, but in the end he harmed both others and himself, and ended up in a miserable end.
Now, his body, soul, reputation and cultivation, everything has been wiped out, it can only be said that he deserved what he deserved.
Zhong Heng took a few steps back and came in front of Zi Yun, "Master, what should I do now?"
Master Zi Yun's face was gloomy.He slowly glanced at the people present, and then glanced at An Jinhua's body.With a wave of his hand, he made a conclusion.
"An Jinhua escaped from the Ice Prison, forced his way into the Bamboo Forest Garden, and threatened the lives of cultivators in Zifeng Mountain. Now he was killed by his disciples, and he deserves to die!" The old man's voice was like a bell, "All those present are witnesses. Tomorrow morning, Zhong Heng, Meng Yijue, you go with the old man to the Interrogation Division and report this matter to Yue Xuanzun."
Zhong Heng frowned, "Master, An Jinhua's escape from the thousand-year-old ice cave is no small matter. If the higher-ups investigate and decide that Zifeng Mountain has been mismanaged, we will all be held accountable."
The prisoner escaped from prison, which was a rare accident in Zifeng Mountain in a hundred years.
For a while, no one in the crowd made a sound. Master Zi Yun thought for a moment, then sighed, "Unless we can dig out the flaws before the Interrogation Division intervenes..."
Zhong Heng said suddenly: "Master, I found some traces near the ice cave just now. An Jinhua was able to escape from prison, I am afraid that he was secretly helped."
A monk next to him couldn't help asking: "Who is that, who will help An Jinhua?"
Zhong Heng glanced at him and took out a small sign from his pocket.Master Zi Yun took a look at the name on it, and immediately said in surprise: "This is the talisman of an inner disciple? Is it Meng Zhao? Where is his master? Where did Zhao Ruolin go?"
Everyone was in an uproar, looking for Zhao Ruolin in the crowd.But Zhao Ruolin was not there, Li Wei, who lived with him in Qingheyuan, said in a trembling voice: "Zhao, Brother Zhao, he brought his disciples to the mine tonight, and he didn't come with him..."
Master Zi Yun's face darkened, "Go and find Zhao Ruolin!" Li Wei quickly responded, turned and ran away.
The old man said to Zhong Heng again: "Take us to the ice cave, the old man wants to see if there are any other clues left."
"Okay, come with me!" Zhong Heng nodded and looked at Meng Yijue again.The latter gathered his robe, "I'll go too."
"By the way." Master Ziyun remembered, "Nephew Yijue, I thought that An Jinhua would go to you first after he escaped from prison, but he died under the sword of Shui Lingyuan after he ran to Zhulinyuan, and You and Yun Muting appeared outside the Zhulin Garden again. The old man can't figure out, what is the reason for all this?"
"An Jinhua was indeed coming after me." Meng Yijue said, "It's just that Ling Yuan and I used a blindfold spell to exchange identities and fooled him."
"how do I say this?"
Meng Yijue walked down the mountain with all his disciples, and at the same time told the whole story of what happened before, and told Master Ziyun.
"...So, you and Shui Lingyuan co-starred in 'Catch a Turtle in a Urn'?"
"Yes." Meng Yijue nodded, "We are in the light, and An Jinhua is in the dark. It is almost impossible to attack and catch him. We can only wait for him to appear. And Yun Muting and Ling Yuan are too strong, as long as they Now, An Jinhua will not act rashly. So Ling Yuan and I switched identities, I pretended to be Ling Yuan and Yun Muting went down the mountain, Ling Yuan pretended to be me, and waited for An Jinhua to come to the door in Zhulin Garden."
Meng Yijue now relies on the magic energy input by Lingyuan to cultivate, and the aura of the two is almost the same. An Jinhua can't distinguish clearly in a short time, and is blinded by the blindfold.
As soon as he saw Yun Muting and "Shui Lingyuan" coming down the mountain, An Jinhua seized the opportunity and sneaked into the Zhulin Garden. Unexpectedly, he met the real little water monster and was killed by the opponent after a fight.
Immortal Zi Yun listened and nodded, "Well, it's a good strategy...but it's still too risky. As your brother of the same sect, An Jinhua is very good at swordsmanship, and there are not many people in Zifeng Mountain who can compete with him. A battle, if it wasn't for Shui Lingyuan..."
He glanced at Shui Lingyuan who was silently following behind Meng Yijue, and swallowed his words again.
In the eyes of everyone in Zifeng Mountain, this water demon is simply a little monster.This point of evaluation is not only for his monster-like strength, but also for his paranoia and possessiveness towards his master.
With such a little monster around, An Jinhua is destined to be unable to hurt Meng Yijue at all, even if he escapes from prison and makes a sneak attack, he will surely die.
Afterwards, the group of people did not speak again, and walked down the trail to a very remote place under the Zifeng cliff.The light was dim, Meng Yijue stumbled and stumbled on the slippery mountain road, Shui Lingyuan supported him from behind, and softly reminded him to be careful, there was a pit next to him.
The further you go down, the heavier the cold.After finally arriving at the destination, Meng Yijue looked around and found that there was a lot of space under the cliff that he had never been to before.
In the inconspicuous gully at the foot of the cliff, on the stones and among the vegetation, there are all paper talismans and mantras drawn, all of which are used to prevent outsiders from approaching.
Layer upon layer of barriers, intertwined with each other, built an impenetrable line of defense outside the ice cave.
He looked at the layout outside the ice cave, and understood why Master Zi Yun was so nervous.
The defense outside the ice prison is extremely tight and complicated, not to mention escaping from the inside, even breaking through from the outside is extremely difficult.Those who can do this must be masters whose strength ranks in the forefront of the entire sect.
Let alone Meng Zhao now, even if it was Zhao Ruolin, he would still find it difficult.
Zhong Heng led them to the entrance of the ice cave, and pointed out to them: "There is no trace of the barrier being violently broken from the outside."
"Where did you find Meng Zhao's talisman?"
"Fifty steps from the entrance of the ice cave."
Some people questioned: "There are so many barriers and spells near the ice cave, I don't think an inner disciple has the ability to remove all the barriers here and save people."
Zhong Heng said: "It is true that the enchantment is difficult to break open, but for those who have the 'key', it is not a problem at all. When An Jinhua was imprisoned a few days ago, I used the key to open it. The barrier inside and outside the ice cave."
Zi Yun was taken aback. The "key" is the "key" to open the barrier outside the ice cave. There are many barriers near the ice prison, and it is impossible to destroy the barrier every time it is opened.
Therefore, Zifeng Mountain passed down a set of secret cracking spells. With it, it is equivalent to being equipped with a door key, instead of tearing down the door every time you enter.
Zhong Heng lowered his head, "Perhaps we were careless when we opened the ice cave, and the magic key was peeped by others, so that the other party only needs to remember our spells, and does not need to know how to break these spells."
It's like cheating in an exam and directly transcribing the answers he saw on the paper without going through the process of solving the problems alone.Memorizing a spell is much easier than finding a way to crack it in person. The implementer does not need to be a master of spells, as long as he has a good memory is enough to do it.
They searched around the ice cave for another half hour, but did not find any more clues, and news came from Li Wei that Zhao Ruolin did not see Meng Zhao when he came back from the mine, and the boy was missing.
In this way, things make sense.
Meng Zhao may have secretly seen their method of opening the barrier outside the ice cave when Zhong Heng was imprisoning An Jinhua, and kept it firmly in mind.A few days later, he came back to repeat this method, broke the barrier, and let An Jinhua escape.
Everyone agrees with this statement.This is the final conclusion on this matter.
The sky gradually revealed the dawn.Seeing that the matter was resolved, Master Zi Yun heaved a sigh of relief and told everyone to go back and rest.
After passing through the chaotic rocks and talisman array at the foot of the mountain, the sword cultivators all flew away with their swords. Master Ziyun left Meng Yijue behind, asked him about the details of Zhulinyuan, and gave him some kind instructions.
When Master and Zi Yun were talking, Ling Yuan waited quietly.Out of the corner of his eye, he saw that Zhong Heng did not fly away with the sword masters, but leaned towards him, and immediately turned around, sizing up the visitor vigilantly.
But not as he expected, Zhong Heng didn't come to find Meng Yijue, but came for him instead.The man hooked his hands at him, Shui Lingyuan hesitated for a while, then followed him to the side.
Zhong Heng bowed his head in silence for a moment, then turned his eyes and looked at him fixedly.
"It's you."
A sentence without beginning or end.But what they are referring to, the two confrontational people know it well.
Shui Lingyuan remained calm.Just listen to Zhong Heng said: "Before they came, I went down the cliff to check. There are almost no traces of magic damage left near the ice cave, and it looks like someone who is familiar with the 'secret key' opened it easily."
While speaking, Zhong Heng sized up the person in front of him, and found that the young man's eyes were calm and calm.He sneered, "It's very clean. But I searched carefully for more than an hour, and I still found a clue—near the ice cave, there are some water stains with demonic energy."
Until then, Shui Lingyuan's eyes finally showed a slight fluctuation.
"Do you think I released An Jinhua on purpose?"
"Otherwise who is it?" Zhong Heng raised his chin, "An Jinhua was thrown into a thousand-year-old ice cave, but you are not willing to let him live like this, you must kill him with your own hands and let him die tragically in front of your master to apologize. Did I said wrong thing?"
Seeing that Shui Lingyuan said nothing, Zhong Heng put his hands behind his back and walked lightly, "When I saw the water marks at the entrance of the ice cave, I was also very puzzled. I really couldn't figure out what was going on in your monster's mind. You actually wanted to release your master's enemy. But when I saw An Jinhua's body in Zhulinyuan, I figured it out—you, Shui Lingyuan, are a complete pervert."
Zhong Heng's words were surprising, but Shui Lingyuan remained motionless.He sneered, and continued to himself:
"You want to avenge your master, why are you willing to let An Jinhua disappear silently in a corner where no one knows? An Jinhua caused your master to lose his inner alchemy, his reputation, and his normal life. He was imprisoned in the ice The ending of dying slowly in prison doesn't give you pleasure."
"So you broke the ice cave enchantment - you can do it with your ability, and let An Jinhua out. An Jinhua was not sentenced to death by the trial department. It is not in line with the sect's rules for you to kill him directly. It will leave people with something to talk about, so you deliberately let him into the bamboo forest garden in order to find a legitimate reason to fight back. As long as you take his life on your own territory, you don't have to be blamed."
Zhong Heng stopped and faced Shui Lingyuan.
"An Jinhua went to Zhulinyuan to seek revenge and fight with you, and was killed by you with sword energy in the end. All of this is under your control and design. You are like playing with a prey, watching An Jinhua hide in the mountains and forests with cold eyes Tibet, gave him the hope of revenge, but mercilessly killed it with your own hands. You let An Jinhua experience all the fear, anger and despair that your master has experienced, and in the end, his flesh and blood flew in extreme pain..."
Zhong Heng took a deep breath.Looking at the other party's calm water-colored eyes, he was silent for a long time, only feeling cold sweat rolling down his back.In the end, I closed my eyes.
"An Jinhua loves his appearance, you let him die beyond recognition; An Jinhua pays attention to cultivation, you strip his inner alchemy; An Jinhua is proud of his swordsmanship, you just beat him to death with your swordsmanship Ha ha... I thought I was ruthless enough, but I didn't expect you to be 'skilled', knowing how to completely destroy a person, and completely knock down the person you hate from the inside out!" Zhong Heng gritted his teeth, With complicated eyes, "You little monster...it's really not easy!"
Shui Lingyuan listened to his words in silence, her thin lips parted slightly, and her tone was calm.
"Zhong Heng, you have a rich imagination, you can write story books."
After leaving this sentence, he stopped talking to Zhong Heng, turned around and walked in the direction of the master.
"Shui Ling Yuan!"
Zhong Heng let out a low snort.He felt his teeth, fists, and limbs trembling. Looking at Shui Lingyuan's back, he said with red eyes, "You madman... your thoughts are too dangerous, and you are so paranoid! You, you listen to me, you If you really want to be good for your master, you'd better stay away from him! A monster like you is not a normal person at all, and if you follow Meng Yijue, something will happen sooner or later..."
He raised his voice suddenly, "You will kill him!"
Shui Lingyuan's footsteps faltered, and then she walked to the master's side without stopping, ignoring the excited and trembling man behind her.
Meng Yijue finished chatting with Master Ziyun, and when he heard the noise coming from behind, he asked curiously: "Lingyuan, what did you say to Zhong Heng that made him jump in anger?"
"It's nothing." Shui Lingyuan pulled his hand and smiled flatly, "Master, it's cold outside, let's go back to the Bamboo Forest Garden to rest. You haven't slept all night, and you're almost getting dark circles."
"Ah, really?" Hearing this, Meng Yijue instinctively raised his hand and rubbed his eyes.
Shui Lingyuan gently held his hand, her gaze was like water, "An Jinhua is dead. Master, from now on, you can sleep well."
Meng Yijue's eyes slowly moved down, staring fixedly at the ground.
In the robe not far away, the shapeless flesh and blood is the dead An Jinhua himself.
This time... An Jinhua is really dead.He was defeated by Ling Yuan's sword, and Ling Yuan's sword energy pierced through every corner of his body from the inside to the outside, blowing him up beyond recognition and leaving him dead.
Meng Yijue stared blankly for a few seconds, feeling relieved, and his stomach churned again, feeling a little nauseous.
Seeing that the master's expression was not looking good, Ling Yuan put away his sword, walked over quickly, and helped him to sit on the big stone at the gate of the courtyard.
"Master, are you okay?"
Meng Yijue closed his eyes, and it took him a while to expel the terrifying picture from his mind, and said softly: "It's nothing, I just... look a little uncomfortable."
Ling Yuan stroked his back, "Master, don't look at it. That pile of things is really disgusting."
Seeing that the master was pale and still a little weak, the young man rolled his eyes, and suddenly took out two small porcelain bottles from his pocket, holding one left and one right in his hands, "Master, look at this."
Meng Yijue took a look, and saw that the two small bottles were surrounded by complicated mantras, obviously they were not ordinary bottles, but like magical artifacts from the pile of materials sent by Zi Yun.
Sure enough, Ling Yuan said softly: "I got these from the warehouse. One is a soul vessel and the other is a pill vessel."
Soul vessel and pill vessel?Meng Yijue was taken aback, probably...
"This is a soul vessel." Ling Yuan shook one of the small gourd-shaped bottles, "The moment I killed An Jinhua, I pulled out his seven souls and six souls from his body, and imprisoned him in the So, if the soul is captured, An Jinhua will live forever and cannot be reincarnated, and can only be trapped in this little hell to be tortured and finally wiped out."
Meng Yijue nodded slightly.The souls of cultivators are usually stronger than ordinary people, and some cultivators will reincarnate with the memories of their previous lives after they pass away.Ling Yuan's move was also to cut the grass and roots, in case An Jinhua reincarnated as an adult by chance, and would come back to trouble her after many years.

An Jinhua Although Jinhua has committed many evils, his cultivation base is quite profound, and Master has definitely benefited from it."
Meng Yijue nodded, "Well, good."
The two looked at each other, looked at each other and smiled.
"Master, finally revenge, are you happy?"
The corners of Meng Yijue's lips rose, his expression relaxed, "Lingyuan, thank you."
Ling Yuan put his fingers into her palms, and the two sat on the big rock by the yard with their fingers intertwined, watching the crowd silently.
And the cultivators of Zifeng Mountain, after the initial shock, saw An Jinhua lying dead on the ground, and they all dared to discuss it.

Zhong Heng glanced at him and took out a small sign from his pocket.Master Zi Yun took a look at the name on it, and immediately said in surprise: "This is the talisman of an inner disciple? Is it Meng Zhao? Where is his master? Where did Zhao Ruolin go?"
Everyone was in an uproar, looking for Zhao Ruolin in the crowd.But Zhao Ruolin was not there, Li Wei, who lived with him in Qingheyuan, said in a trembling voice: "Zhao, Brother Zhao, he brought his disciples to the mine tonight, and he didn't come with him..."
Master Zi Yun's face darkened, "Go and find Zhao Ruolin!" Li Wei quickly responded, turned and ran away.
The old man said to Zhong Heng again: "Take us to the ice cave, the old man wants to see if there are any other clues left."

While speaking, Zhong Heng sized up the person in front of him, and found that the young man's eyes were calm and calm.He sneered, "It's very clean. But I searched carefully for more than an hour, and I still found a clue—near the ice cave, there are some water stains with demonic energy."
Until then, Shui Lingyuan's eyes finally showed a slight fluctuation.
"Do you think I released An Jinhua on purpose?"
"Otherwise who is it?" Zhong Heng raised his chin, "An Jinhua was thrown into a thousand-year-old ice cave, but you are not willing to let him live like this, you must kill him with your own hands and let him die tragically in front of your master to apologize. Did I said wrong thing?"
Seeing that Shui Lingyuan said nothing, Zhong Heng put his hands behind his back and walked lightly, "When I saw the water marks at the entrance of the ice cave, I was also very puzzled. I really couldn't figure out what was going on in your monster's mind. You actually wanted to release your master's enemy. But when I saw An Jinhua's body in Zhulinyuan, I figured it out—you, Shui Lingyuan, are a complete pervert."
Zhong Heng's words were surprising, but Shui Lingyuan remained motionless.He sneered, and continued to himself:
"You want to avenge your master, why are you willing to let An Jinhua disappear silently in a corner where no one knows? An Jinhua caused your master to lose his inner alchemy, his reputation, and his normal life. He was imprisoned in the ice The ending of dying slowly in prison doesn't give you pleasure."
"So you broke the ice cave enchantment - you can do it with your ability, and let An Jinhua out. An Jinhua was not sentenced to death by the trial department. It is not in line with the sect's rules for you to kill him directly. It will leave people with something to talk about, so you deliberately let him into the bamboo forest garden in order to find a legitimate reason to fight back. As long as you take his life on your own territory, you don't have to be blamed."
Zhong Heng stopped and faced Shui Lingyuan.
"An Jinhua went to Zhulinyuan to seek revenge and fight with you, and was killed by you with sword energy in the end. All of this is under your control and design. You are like playing with a prey, watching An Jinhua hide in the mountains and forests with cold eyes Tibet, gave him the hope of revenge, but mercilessly killed it with your own hands. You let An Jinhua experience all the fear, anger and despair that your master has experienced, and in the end, his flesh and blood flew in extreme pain..."
Zhong Heng took a deep breath.Looking at the other party's calm water-colored eyes, he was silent for a long time, only feeling cold sweat rolling down his back.In the end, I closed my eyes.
"An Jinhua loves his appearance, you let him die beyond recognition; An Jinhua pays attention to cultivation, you strip his inner alchemy; An Jinhua is proud of his swordsmanship, you just beat him to death with your swordsmanship Ha ha... I thought I was ruthless enough, but I didn't expect you to be 'skilled', knowing how to completely destroy a person, and completely knock down the person you hate from the inside out!" Zhong Heng gritted his teeth, With complicated eyes, "You little monster...it's really not easy!"
Shui Lingyuan listened to his words in silence, her thin lips parted slightly, and her tone was calm.
"Zhong Heng, you have a rich imagination, you can write story books."
After leaving this sentence, he stopped talking to Zhong Heng, turned around and walked in the direction of the master.
"Shui Ling Yuan!"
Zhong Heng let out a low snort.He felt his teeth, fists, and limbs trembling. Looking at Shui Lingyuan's back, he said with red eyes, "You madman... your thoughts are too dangerous, and you are so paranoid! You, you listen to me, you If you really want to be good for your master, you'd better stay away from him! A monster like you is not a normal person at all, and if you follow Meng Yijue, something will happen sooner or later..."
He raised his voice suddenly, "You will kill him!"
Shui Lingyuan's footsteps faltered, and then she walked to the master's side without stopping, ignoring the excited and trembling man behind her.
Meng Yijue finished chatting with Master Ziyun, and when he heard the noise coming from behind, he asked curiously: "Lingyuan, what did you say to Zhong Heng that made him jump in anger?"
"It's nothing." Shui Lingyuan pulled his hand and smiled flatly, "Master, it's cold outside, let's go back to the Bamboo Forest Garden to rest. You haven't slept all night, and you're almost getting dark circles."
"Ah, really?" Hearing this, Meng Yijue instinctively raised his hand and rubbed his eyes.
Shui Lingyuan gently held his hand, her gaze was like water, "An Jinhua is dead. Master, from now on, you can sleep well."
