"What do you mean by that?"
"Some of us are the culprit of this accident? Impossible."
One stone stirred up waves, and Mu Yunian's words successfully gave everyone goosebumps. Thinking of so many people resting in a cave last night and walking together again, one of them was secretly watching everyone with evil intentions. Still thinking about how to continue to torture them with means.
Apple was so frightened that she couldn't help pinching Qiu Lan's sleeves, looking left and right, all of them looked like bad guys.
Everyone was in the same state, secretly looking at the people around them at the same time, and the atmosphere was a little tense.
Qiu Lan frowned and looked at Mu Yunian. Seeing his righteous and dignified appearance, he always felt that it was a bit disobedient. Before Mu Yunian, he seldom spoke, and their team had been quietly following everyone's actions. It would be unacceptable for him to say such words suddenly. Don't let Qiulan suspect that he has other purposes.
What's more, most of the people present are young monks, and their emotions are most likely to be stirred up.
After attracting everyone's attention, Mu Yunian said slowly, "You also think it's very possible. Everyone is from five continents. Many of them have never met each other before. The black hands behind the scenes are hiding among us, so it's the safest."
I have to admit that Mu Yunian's words are very reasonable. Let Qiu Lan think that the mastermind behind this accident is indeed likely to be hidden among the contestants. What purpose is achieved, if the plan changes, it is best to get involved and make adjustments as soon as possible.
It is estimated that the black hand did not expect the accident of honeysuckle, and directly killed the pseudo-dragon. The monks also spontaneously gathered around the honeysuckle to seek shelter.
The faces of everyone present were instantly ugly.
None of them are stupid, they were thrown into disarray by a series of accidents before, but now that Mu Yunian pointed it out, they all listened to it.
The various teams began to scatter each other unconsciously.
"Everyone may wish to think about it, what kind of person is most likely to be the real culprit behind the scenes?" Mu Yunian was like a patient teacher, persuasive and persuasive.
"Everyone...doesn't know anyone." Someone replied hesitantly.
Mu Yunian sneered, glanced over everyone one by one, and replied: "That's right, although we don't know each other, we all take part in the big competition with the sect as the team, and the same sect naturally knows each other, it just depends on who is single One person, who doesn't know the origin, is the most suspect."
After saying that, he looked straight at Qiu Lan, full of hints.
Qiu Lan met his malicious eyes, felt a thump in his heart, looked Mu Yu Nian up and down again, the more he looked, the more confused he was, he really didn't know this person, why did Mu Yu Nian insist on him?
Is it really just speculation, or does it have ulterior motives?
Qiu Lan narrowed his eyes, and heard Mu Yunian's next sentence: "If I remember correctly, this Mr. Shen Yucheng claimed to be a member of the Dongzhou Fangyuan School before, not to mention whether there is a Fangyuan School in Dongzhou, he just said it himself. He and Mr. Liandong also met halfway, and they are not from the same family."
"Has anyone here ever known Mr. Shen Yucheng?"
The monks looked at each other, looked at Qiulan, then at Lonicera, their eyes were a little subtle.
It's strange to know each other. Shen Yucheng fled to the snowfield with his parents since he was a child. He is still a mortal, so it is impossible for him to know the monks in the land of freedom.
Qiu Lan couldn't help looking at Liandong with complicated emotions, after all, he came here to participate in the competition and had nothing to do with Liandong, but——
Lonicera has always remained expressionless, making it impossible to see his emotional fluctuations.
Qiu Lan suddenly felt uncomfortable, and was a little powerless. Liandong rescued him, and he and Liandong searched for his wife together. On the way, Liandong took good care of him, and more or less formed friendships. Qiu Lan still wishful thinking that... they It's a friend.
In the end, he didn't even understand why Liandong was angry. Now that he was framed, Liandong was indifferent. He could understand it intellectually, but he couldn't accept it emotionally.
Mu Yunian was a villain, and continued to add fuel to the fire: "Mr. Shen, it seems that no one here knows you, and you are the one behind the scenes."
Qiu Lan: "..." It's really a convincing inference with reason and evidence.
Qiu Lan said: "I'm just a low-level cultivator, let alone a false dragon, I can't protect myself when I meet a cloud beast, and say that I did all of this, don't you think highly of me?"
Although he used to be a high-level monk, he didn't care about the burden of other monks' strength. Instead, he just wanted to get rid of the shackles and be an ordinary person, so he admitted that he was weak and very calm, and even a little bit confident.
Mu Yunian's face froze: "How do we know if you're faking it?"
Qiu Lan: "You don't know? Then it's over, if you don't know, how can you be sure that I am behind the scenes?"
Apple standing beside Qiu Lan suddenly shouted to Mu Yunian: "That's right, why do you say that about brother? Do you have evidence? You guessed? Then I guess you are the mastermind behind the scenes."
Apple was taken care of by Brother Shen all the way, so he didn't believe that he was a bad person.
Qiu Lan's heart warmed up, she slightly raised the corners of her lips, and looked at Mu Yu Nian calmly.
The crowd was dumbfounded. Looking at Shen Yucheng's appearance, it didn't seem like a guilty reaction after being identified. Could it really be him?
At this time, Xiangying suddenly stood beside Qiu Lan, and said softly: "I was almost buried in the mouth of a false dragon before, but Mr. Shen saved me. I trust him. Besides, if he is really the person behind the scenes, why bother to save me?" I."
After a pause, Xiangying raised her head, and added: "Speaking of which, Mr. Lonicera's origin is also unknown, and his cultivation is unfathomable. Isn't the suspicion even greater?"
As soon as the words fell, the crowd suddenly became noisy, and everyone turned their eyes to Lonicera, full of doubts.
Young Master Lian Dong is indeed more powerful than ordinary high-ranking monks, but such a powerful monk should have been famous long ago, but they have never heard of Young Master Li Dong's name.
It's really suspicious...
Qiu Lan was stunned, he didn't expect Xiangying to come up with a trick, and suddenly turned the conflict to Lonicera.
Others don't know, but Qiu Lan knows that Liandong is a member of the Snow Clan. The Snow Clan has always looked down on the Human Race, and their strength is much higher than that of the Human Race. .
Qiu Lan was in a very complicated mood, just now he secretly complained that Liandong didn't speak for him, but now that he has become a troubled brother, he can't complain anymore.
Looking up, even if Liandong was framed, she still remained unmoved. This is the confidence of the Snow Clan.
Qiu Lan suddenly felt relieved, maybe it's not that Liandong didn't regard him as a friend, it's just that he is calm when encountering things.
At this critical juncture, Jin Fengqing suddenly stood up and said, "Master Liandong belongs to the Snow Clan, how could the Snow Clan do such a thing?"
There was subtle smugness hidden in her raised chin and surprised tone, as if quietly showing off.
Qiu Lan was stunned, unexpectedly Liandong had already told Jin Fengqing his Snow Clan identity, he is not like the kind of person who likes to share his secrets with others.
Everyone was stunned for a moment.
The legendary Snow Clan?Does the Snow Clan really exist in this world?
It is rumored that the Snow Clan is born powerful, and the infants of the Snow Clan can stand at the top of the human race. The power possessed by the adult Snow Clan is nothing less than divine power to the human race. They live in the snowy field and disdain to deal with the human race. Master Lonicera is really Snow family?
Someone couldn't hold back his expression and asked Liandong excitedly: "My lord, is what Fairy Fengqing said true?"
Everyone held their breath, nervously waiting for Lonicera to answer.
Liandong raised her eyes, and gave a faint "um", wondering if it was Qiu Lan's illusion, for a moment Liandong's eyes fell on him, and then moved away quickly as if there was substance.
In the next moment, Lonicera's black hair gradually faded, revealing silvery hair, like a heavy snowfall coming slowly.
There were exclamations one after another in the crowd.
"It's really Snow Clan?"
"I've also met people from the Snow Clan."
"Oh my god, it's no wonder Mr. Lonicera is so good-looking and powerful. He killed the pseudo-dragon so easily. So the rumor about the Snow Clan is true. I thought it was a legend."
For a moment, everyone's attention was diverted, surrounded by Lonicera, and even Apple couldn't help but look at Lonicera's silver hair in wonder.
Qiu Lan was squeezed out of the crowd, scratching his head, the attack on him and Liandong just now was diverted attention, it seemed that it was going to be nothing.
Fine.
It's hard to feel the atmosphere that Mu Yu Nian had just worked so hard to create, thinking of this autumn, Lan looked at Mu Yu Nian.
Mu Yunian's face turned blue, and his eyes were gloomy. When he met Qiu Lan's eyes, the sinister hidden inside made Qiu Lan frown.
This person's original purpose is actually him, right?He was more thoughtful, Mu Yunian, who was so embarrassed and angry, might have another trick, so he had to be careful.
On the other side, everyone recovered from the shock, and they were still discussing the matter of the Snow Clan with the people around them, but no one brought up the topic of the black hands behind the scenes.
It seems to be calm, but once the seeds of doubt are planted, they will secretly grow in the dark, and they will break out of the ground just waiting for an opportunity.
Night is coming.
Everyone returned to the cave the night before, and sat down separately, consciously separated by a certain distance, and their voices were deliberately lowered, and they all moved closer to Lonicera intentionally or unintentionally, as if this would make them feel more at ease.
In the end, a strange scene of everyone surrounding the honeysuckle was formed.
Qiu Lan sensed that others were wary of him, so she took up a corner by herself to avoid suspicion, thinking about what happened today, she suddenly recalled——
Today, Liandong admitted that he is a Snow Clan, and he deliberately regained his silver hair, successfully diverting everyone's attention, isn't he... helping himself out?
This idea occupied Qiu Lan's mind as soon as he appeared, he turned his head and quietly looked in the direction of Lonicera, and found that there were quite a lot of people in the cave who were doing the same actions as him, all of them were peeping at Lonicera, especially the female nuns. He wanted to strike up a conversation, but Jin Fengqing stayed by Liandong's side tightly, making the female cultivators stop.
the other side.
Jin Fengqing noticed Shen Yucheng's gaze, and there was a trace of disgust in her eyes. She raised her head in displeasure, and saw the back of Liandong sitting next to her suddenly straightened, his muscles stretched obviously, and he propped up the slim long gown in a powerful arc. , like an innocent boy who is nervous when being approached by the person he likes, but at the same time exudes masculine charm unknowingly.
Anyone would be happy to be cared about by such a man.
But this unconscious behavior similar to that of a male creature showing off its feathers is not for her, but for Shen Yucheng.
Thinking of this, her heart was filled with unwillingness. It was the first time she had cared so much for a man when she grew up. She was unwilling to give up, unwilling to lose to Shen Yucheng.
Jin Fengqing peeled a sweet red fruit with light-white fingers. The sweet fruit was freshly picked and exuded an attractive fragrance. She held the sweet fruit delicately and handed it to Lonicera, whispering softly: "You haven't eaten all day, eat one."
Liandong could feel Qiu Lan's gaze, was he looking at herself?Why?
Are you angry that you didn't speak for him today, or did you guess that you intended to rescue him?
Will he be angry when he sees himself with Jin Fengqing?
Liandong pursed his lips subconsciously, feeling his throat was a little dry, he was afraid that he was acting affectionate again, and he could rejoice just because of Qiu Lan's look.
Then Jin Fengqing's words suddenly disrupted his thoughts.
Liandong glanced at her impatiently, didn't reach out to pick up the sweet fruit, and didn't speak, her attitude of rejection was very clear.
Jin Fengqing's expression froze, and she felt that Shen Yucheng's gaze behind her must be gloating at the moment, she would not give up, and quickly handed it to Liandong's mouth with a smile, and at the same time moved her face closer, deliberately pretending to be intimate, whispering like a lover Whispering between the two, the voice was deliberately sweet: "You... don't you want to know the truth about how he was killed back then?"
As soon as the words fell, Liandong was finally willing to look away, and looked at her coldly, his eyes seemed to be quenched with ice for thousands of years, cold and sharp, like looking at a dead thing, at the same time, invisible coercion unfolded, unceremoniously The ground crushed her with the gap in cultivation.
Jin Fengqing shivered subconsciously, frightened by that gaze, felt a momentary retreat in her heart, fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, her face was pale, and she almost collapsed to the ground.
No, she can't retreat!
It took her so much to grasp this man's weakness. This is the Snow King. He is No. 1 in the world, the only person in the world who has stepped into the divine realm. If she misses this opportunity, she will regret it for the rest of her life.
Thinking of this, Jinfeng Qing forced herself to smile and looked at Liandong: "I'll tell you when I get out of the secret realm."
Liandong looked down at her, but directly reached out to take Tianguo, and hung her hand in the air: "Don't force me to kill you." He couldn't kill people at will, because Qiu Lan would be unhappy.
After just a while, Jin Fengqing was already in a cold sweat, and he didn't dare to provoke Liandong easily.
The comings and goings of the two were all seen in Qiu Lan's eyes. Qiu Lan looked back and saw that the two were intimate, and they were all related to each other's little secrets. Maybe it was because of his overthinking. Today Lian Dong just followed Jin Fengqing It has nothing to do with him if he follows the trend.
However, whether intentional or not, Liandong helped him again, and he owed Liandong another favor.
What's even more troublesome is that Liandong is angry with him and doesn't want to talk to him.
That night Qiu Lan didn't sleep well, and for some reason his heart was beating so fast, he woke up in the middle of the night, then opened his eyes and stared at the beating flames in a daze.
"Hey." A small and dull voice came from nowhere.
Qiu Lan was startled, looked up and looked around, the monks were all asleep, the sound of breathing and snoring came one after another, it was not quiet, and the voice just now seemed more abrupt.
He stood up and looked towards the entrance of the cave, which was blocked by the monks with big stones, leaving only a small gap. As he approached, the voice just now appeared again.
"Deng...deng..."
In the dead of night, it becomes clearer and more permeating.
Qiu Lan opened her mouth, not daring to use too much voice: "Wake up, there is something outside."
After shouting this sentence, Qiu Lan turned her head and met Lian Dong's extraordinarily sober eyes. He was obviously not asleep, and the two people's eyes only exchanged for a moment and then quickly staggered away.
Liandong stood up suddenly and walked to his side without warning.
Ok?
Qiu Lan was pleasantly surprised, is she not angry with him anymore?
If it wasn't for the wrong situation, he really wanted to celebrate, but at this moment he could only put it aside and kicked the monk beside him.
The monks finally woke up faintly, and when they heard Qiu Lan's words, they immediately jumped up and picked up their swords, asking, "What is it?"
Qiu Lan shook her head: "There are voices breaking stones outside."
Gradually, the monks all woke up, gathered around the entrance of the cave with weapons, and looked outside vigilantly.
"It seems that there is a sound."
A female nun whispered: "Such a strange voice, could it be a ghost?"
"What the hell are you afraid of, a monk?"
"What's so scary about ghosts? They're all weak chickens, and they can return to the west with a single strike."
Qiu Lan, who occupied Shen Yucheng's body in the form of a ghost and didn't know whether he was a human or a ghost: "..." I always feel targeted.
A rough-looking male cultivator couldn't take it anymore, so he pushed away the people next to him, leaned into the gap in the cave, and looked out for a long time.
The person inside asked, "What did you see?"
The man didn't move for a while: "It's nothing, it's dark, hey, there seems to be a little red light..."
Before the words were finished, there was a loud "boom", and the seemingly solid boulder blocking the entrance of the cave burst open, and the fragments that flew out instantly flew to the monks in the cave without distinction, and also flew to the center of the cave, flickering and flickering fire.
Before anyone could react, the fire was immediately extinguished.
Qiu Lan was suddenly overturned by the huge wind force, soaring into the air, stretching out her hands to protect her head in shock, the next moment, her body fell into a warm and powerful embrace.
And very familiar.
The back of the head was protected by wide palms, and Lonicera's quiet voice came from above his head: "Are you injured?"
I don't know if it was Qiu Lan's illusion, but he heard a trace of concern in Liandong's tone, and he was sure that Liandong had forgiven him.
Ah, very good.
Qiu Lan stood up straight, looking at Lian Dong with a pair of almond eyes shining in the darkness: "I'm fine."
Liandong looked at his Qiji expression, and heaved a sigh of relief in his heart, God knows that the moment he watched Qiu Lan fly away, his heart would stop beating.
Liandong's eyebrows and eyes are full of nostalgia, taking advantage of Qiu Lan not being able to find out, unscrupulous eyes linger on his face, he doesn't know that he is angry with Qiu Lan, can't control himself from separating from Qiu Lan, is he torturing Qiu Lan, Still torturing himself.
At this time, intermittent screams of monks came from the darkness, mixed with the noise of panic and fear, followed by a strong smell of blood.
Qiu Lan finally came back to her senses, no longer thinking about what was left, and shouted: "Who brought the Ye Mingzhu last night, take it out quickly."
The noisy monks were quiet for a moment, and a few huge night pearls were taken out, and the cave was able to see light again.
Qiu Lan saw the scene outside the cave with the light of the night pearl, and a chill gradually rose from the bottom of her heart——
The outside of the cave was surrounded by dense cloud beasts, blocking the outside. Each figure was a little bigger than when they saw the cloud beast last time. The red copper bell eyes radiated blood in the darkness. In the dim light, it seemed that Shura, who was killing his life in the middle of the night, was slowly bending over and approaching the people in the cave.
"Ah ah ah ah..."
This high-pitched scream was like the prelude to a massacre. Following the scream, the Chaos Cloud Beast outside the cave roared and rushed in, crazily opening its blood-red mouth to bite the monks.
Liandong took a deep look at Qiulan, and pushed him into the cave: "Stay inside and don't come out."
Seeing that Qiu Lang didn't move for a long while, still standing there, he paused, and said again: "Don't be afraid."
After speaking, he flew into the group of Chaoyun beasts, standing tall, with no trace of sword shadow.
Leaving Qiu Lan with a wide and reliable back, as if she wanted to resolutely block all the suffering for Qiu Lan, it gradually overlapped with the back of Yi Guixue who rescued Qiu Lan from the traffickers when she was a child.
Qiu Lan's eyes widened, he was no longer the cowardly self he was when he was a child, he picked up a sword thrown down by someone from the ground, and joined the battle without hesitation.
Most of the monks gradually calmed down, took up weapons and rushed up to fight the cloud beast, and a small number of them huddled in the cave and refused to come out.
Qiu Lan raised his sword and rushed towards a Chaoyun beast, who knows, when he approached, the Chaoyun beast froze in a very human way, then turned around and ran away.
Qiu Lan: "?"
He stared at the next target again in disbelief, and rushed over even faster, before the tip of the sword touched it, the cloud beast turned around and ran away again.
Now it's not just him, the monks who were fighting bloody around him all noticed something wrong here, and shouted: "Shen Yucheng, why are these cloud beasts avoiding you?"
Qiu Lan: "??" How do I know?
The Chaos Cloud Beast kept attacking other monks, and people were injured from time to time, Qiu Lan could only look around to see who was seriously injured, and went to help drive one or two away when he couldn't hold on, sweating profusely.
Gradually, the monks also had no time to take care of this strange scene, and devoted themselves to the battle.
I don't know how long it took, but this long, murderous night finally came to an end, the east was white, and dawn came.
The huge group of Chaoyun beasts retreated in unison in an instant, turned around and ran away without looking back. They ran without warning and withdrew completely in the blink of an eye, leaving the numb monks who had been killed standing there blankly.
The monks collapsed to the ground, threw their weapons to the ground, and murmured, "I'm still alive."
Although Qiu Lan was not directly attacked, he ran around all night, sweating all over his body, and would sit directly on the ground, his whole body weakened as if all his strength had been exhausted, and his mind went blank.
He scanned the crowd with his eyes, and soon found Lonicera standing against the wall. Lonicera's expression was condensed. It was also a night of fighting, and everyone else was in a mess, but he was clean.
Looking at Shang Qiulan quickly moved away, the indifferent and alienated posture made Qiulan even suspect that the warm embrace last night and the person who told him not to be afraid were his hallucinations.
Jin Fengqing was standing beside Liandong, eagerly wiping his sweat, the white handkerchief deliberately stayed on the man's handsome and plump forehead.
Liandong was actually in a daze, and Qiu Lan was looking at himself again. He didn't know whether he should follow his inner thoughts, pretend that the previous things hadn't happened, or continue to treat Qiu Lan deliberately coldly. After all, even he himself didn't know what he wanted. do what.
If...if he is willing to go back to the Snow Clan with him, then forgive him, Liandong clenched his palms tightly.
Qiu Lan was looking dazzled when a figure suddenly appeared in front of him, interrupting his thoughts.
He looked away, patted the ashes on his clothes and stood up, it was Mu Yu Nian.
Pointing at Qiu Lan, Mu Yunian said loudly: "I said before that this man is the culprit of everything, but you still don't believe it. You all saw it last night. The Chaos Cloud Beast only attacked us but not him. The man behind the scenes is not Who is he?"
A monk whose leg was bitten off by the cloud beast and could no longer walk cried out, his eyes were red, and he rushed towards Qiulan: "Beast, I will kill you."
"It's all your fault, my legs, my legs can't walk anymore..."
"My hand is also useless, I can no longer hold a sword..."
Frustrated emotions are contagious, one person takes the lead, and the emotions of the people who were still numb gradually became emotional, some cried and some cursed.
Qiu Lan was also very tired. Looking at this scene, he knew in his heart that these people might not believe that he was the murderer, but they needed an outlet to vent their emotions, and he just happened to appear so unluckily, just right.
Well, one has to suspect that someone did it on purpose.
Qiu Lan looked at Mu Yunian with a calm expression: "Since the murderer can command the Chaos Cloud Beast like an arm, how difficult is it to control the Chaos Cloud Beast not to attack anyone? If I am really the murderer, why did I leave you with such an obvious handle?" ?”
Mu Yunian sneered: "Now that the evidence is clear, you don't want to confuse us with sweet words anymore. This person has caused us to be like this. How do you think we should deal with him?"
"Kill him!" one shouted.
Immediately, several people responded sparsely: "Kill him, kill him!"
After the war, blood stained the land, and the smell of bloody iron ran back and forth on the tip of everyone's nose. Everyone seemed to be immersed in this brutal and bloody atmosphere, and looked at Qiu Lan viciously: "Kill him."
Qiu Lan shuddered, this time, both Apple and Xiangying stood looking at him from a distance, they seemed to be very scared, they were held by the arms of their classmates, and they did not stand beside Qiu Lan again.
Everyone seems to have forgotten that when they were attacked by the pseudo-dragon, Qiu Lan ran under the mouth of the pseudo-dragon and dragged the fainted people to a safe place. Many of them had faces saved by Qiu Lan.
Everyone seems to have forgotten that when the cloud beast attacked last night, Qiu Lan went around to help them disperse the cloud beast and save them from death.
They just remember being annoyed and agitated to be involved in something like this, and having to vent their anger by killing someone who represents the culprit.
In a corner where no one else could see, Qiu Lan could see Mu Yunian curling up his lips and smiling contentedly. He picked up the long sword and stabbed at Qiu Lan without hesitation. Everyone around watched this scene silently. , without blocking.
Qiu Lan took a step back, squeezed the hilt of the sword in his hand, and looked back at Mu Yu Nian without fear, he would never retreat, and he was never afraid of death.
Just as the two swords met, there was a wailing sound of weapons. The next moment, Qiu Lan's eyes blurred, and saw the sword in Mu Yunian's hand being knocked to the ground.
The surrounding crowd was also silent.
Qiu Lan stared blankly at the firm figure in front of her, it turned out that what happened last night was not a dream.
Liandong stood in front of him, with his back turned to him, pointing the tip of the sword at Mu Yunian's neck, with a cold look on his face.
Only then did Mu Yunian come to his senses, and shouted redly, "What are you doing? Why are you protecting this villain? Are you trying to kill us all?"
Liandong said coldly: "Those things have nothing to do with him."
Mu Yunian asked back: "How do you know? Could it be you who did it if he didn't do it?"
Liandong suddenly took a step forward, and the tip of the sword also moved forward an inch. A thin line of blood appeared on Mu Yunian's neck. He panicked, and was so frightened by this man's aura that he just wanted to run away.
Liandong suddenly smiled, this was the first time Qiu Lan saw him smile, but it was not a smile that made people feel comfortable, but a smile that was superior and condescending to all living beings. Pause: "I don't need to prove it to you, because I can kill everyone here if I want."
Isn't the snow clan killing people as simple as killing an ant?
Naturally, there was no need to explain anything to them. All the people who heard this backed away in fear. Before, they only saw Lonicera's strength, envious of the sense of security that his invincible strength could bring, but completely ignored him. The most dangerous, most threatening existence.
No... It's not that they ignored it on purpose, but that this man deliberately put away his sharp minions and pretended to be harmless. How is this different from letting a wolf into a flock of sheep?
As for why this man tried so hard to pretend, the crowd turned their attention to Qiu Lan.
It's because... He, it turned out that he was Lonicera's bottom line, that's right, it was they themselves who broke the whitewashed surface and let the wolf show its fangs, which is tantamount to seeking its own death.
Mu Yunian reluctantly opened his mouth to continue, but was thrown away by the person beside him, Jing Shiqiang smiled and said, "Young Master Liandong, it was all a misunderstanding, just now we were bewitched by Mu Yunian maliciously, and we almost made a mistake. , please don’t worry about it.”
Xu Xiuzhu also added in time: "Yes, it was Mu Yunian who made the move just now, and we didn't stop it until we realized it." After speaking, he turned to Qiu Lan: "Mr. Shen, I'm really sorry."
When he saw that Liandong was not with Shen Yucheng, but with Jin Fengqing, he thought that this young master had abandoned Shen Yucheng for Jin Fengqing, but he was wrong, that Shen Yucheng actually held a lot of weight in the heart of Young Master Liandong. so heavy.
Qiu Lan was completely dazed by the rapid reversal of the scene, seeing the smiling face of the person who was shouting at him just now, he was suddenly relieved, and smiled wryly: "Then when you encounter trouble, For this kind of thing, react quickly, don't wait for the sword to pierce through me before stopping it."
He doesn't want to care about too many people, they are all passers-by, and after leaving this secret realm, he probably won't see each other again for the rest of his life. Now that he is exhausted, he really doesn't want to care about these people.
Xu Xiuzhu smiled awkwardly, and Liandong was finally willing to put down the murderous long sword, but this time he did not leave Qiu Lan's side, but stood silently by his side.
Jin Fengqing watched the farce on the sidelines. She gloated and thought that Shen Yucheng could finally die, but she didn't expect to die again. She sighed in disappointment. Going forward, although she didn't want to admit it, she was indeed frightened by Lonicera just like everyone else, and she couldn't help but touch the phoenix hairpin on top of her head. There is always a chance, after all, she still has what Lonicera wants here .
The cave was in a mess and it was obvious that they could not live any longer. After passing by the Chaos Cloud Beast, they were frightened by the honeysuckle just now, exhausted physically and mentally, so they found a random place to lie down and rest.
Qiu Lan leaned against a tree, looked up at Lonicera, and showed a pale smile: "Sit down."
Liandong sat beside him, her body tensed up, neither of them spoke, only the whispering of the wind and the singing of birds in the forest.
After a while, Liandong finally couldn't help turning his head to take a peek at Qiu Lan, but saw that Qiu Lan's eyes were closed, she was fast asleep, her head was moving bit by bit, and her unintelligent appearance seemed a little naive.
Liandong pursed his thin lips and looked straight ahead, but his shoulders quietly moved towards Qiu Lan's direction, which seemed a bit deliberate, but after a while, he managed to catch Qiu Lan's jaw that was about to fall, and his heart instantly swelled, unparalleled Satisfaction, that person sleeping next to him is the whole world.
Qiu Lan's breathing was very soft and quiet, just like him, soft and quiet. Listening to it, Lian Dong unconsciously closed her eyes, and slowly fell into a deep sleep...
When Liandong woke up in a daze again, his first reaction was to look for the sound of Qiulan's breathing and the smell of Qiulan beside him, but he failed. He suddenly opened his eyes, which were filled with the displeasure of the superior, He turned his head, but Qiu Lan was not by his side.
He stood up, and as far as his eyes could see, there was no sign of Qiu Lan.
Liandong clenched his fists tightly, the hostility and tyranny in his eyes could no longer be controlled, extending from the ground under his feet inch by inch, bringing the land where the wind and snow raged inch by inch.
The third time, this is the third time Qiu Lan escaped from him, he really hated this scene, eight years ago, eight years later, and now, the feeling of suffocation slowly spread to his heart, The darkness sneaked in, trying to control his mind in one fell swoop.
At this moment, all he wants is to catch Qiulan back, tie him up, and lock him up, so that he can never leave him without saying a word, so that he only has himself in his heart.
Seeing this strange scene, the people around were scared away and didn't dare to make a sound. Why did they feel that such a person had a sense of security before?
When the ice and snow were about to spread to the lake in the distance, a figure slowly approached, watching the blizzard centered on honeysuckle, and staying in place.
"What are you doing?"
Liandong's breath was stagnant, but her expression was still gloomy, she stared at Qiulan and asked, "Where did you go?"
Qiu Lan tilted her head and raised Wu Niao in her hand: "I specially caught one to apologize to you. I'm sorry about what happened the day before yesterday. Do you accept it?"
He still thought that Liandong was angry because of Wu Niao that day.
Liandong let out a sharp breath suddenly, only then did he see that Qiu Lan's clothes were soaked, presumably it took a lot of effort to catch that Wu bird, Liandong couldn't raise any temper all of a sudden, that's how this person can be Easily control his emotions and let his heart soften.
Qiu Lan still didn't understand the situation in front of her. The next moment, her eyes blurred, and Lonicera had already appeared in front of her, and then... her lips touched a piece of softness.
While he was in a daze, the other party was like a cunning general, commanding his mighty tongue to drive in, forcing him to have a romantic relationship together.
Qiu Lan was startled, he actually let Liandong do whatever he wanted, when he realized he wanted to push Liandong away, but he forgot that Wu Niao was still in his hand.
"quack."
Wu Niao, who was finally caught, flapped its wings again and flew away clamoring.
Qiulan: "..."
After the kiss was over, Liandong held the back of Qiu Lan's head with both hands, and the two people's faces were very close to each other, their hot breath hit each other's cheeks, and they were both panting, Liandong's voice was very hoarse: "You scared me to death .”
Qiu Lan raised her head and stared at him: "You scared me to death too."
After saying that, she pushed Liandong away, and Liandong looked at his flushed and pretty cheeks, and was pushed away halfway along with his strength, but her gaze was still fixed on him.
Qiu Lan took a deep breath, trying to hide the blush on his face, but not very successful, he complained half-truthfully: "You let my Wu bird go again."
Liandong: "Well, I'll catch another one for you."
Qiu Lan crossed Lonicera: "I'm a little hungry, hurry up and find something to eat."
Lonicera: "Well, good."
So the two of them looked for firewood, and the other looked for ingredients, pretending that nothing happened, as if they had a tacit understanding and kept silent about the talent's kiss. Are you angry with Qiu Lan?
Qiu Lan sits and eats in confusion, pretending not to care on the surface, but her mind is full of that kiss just now, what does it mean that Lian Dong kissed him?
He never thought that Liandong had that kind of meaning for him. After all, Liandong said that he has a wife. For this alone, Qiulan can't have anything to do with him.
What's more, Liandong had been ambiguous with Jinfeng before, so why did Liandong kiss him?
Just when everyone was eating quietly, the whole secret realm suddenly shook for a while, and then there was a huge impact sound in the distance.
The things in Qiu Lan's hand were shaken to the ground, she raised her head and frowned to look into the distance.
The monks were also frightened, they put down their food and picked up their weapons, and stood up vigilantly
"Some of us are the culprit of this accident? Impossible."
One stone stirred up waves, and Mu Yunian's words successfully gave everyone goosebumps. Thinking of so many people resting in a cave last night and walking together again, one of them was secretly watching everyone with evil intentions. Still thinking about how to continue to torture them with means.
Apple was so frightened that she couldn't help pinching Qiu Lan's sleeves, looking left and right, all of them looked like bad guys.
Everyone was in the same state, secretly looking at the people around them at the same time, and the atmosphere was a little tense.
Qiu Lan frowned and looked at Mu Yunian. Seeing his righteous and dignified appearance, he always felt that it was a bit disobedient. Before Mu Yunian, he seldom spoke, and their team had been quietly following everyone's actions. It would be unacceptable for him to say such words suddenly. Don't let Qiulan suspect that he has other purposes.
What's more, most of the people present are young monks, and their emotions are most likely to be stirred up.
After attracting everyone's attention, Mu Yunian said slowly, "You also think it's very possible. Everyone is from five continents. Many of them have never met each other before. The black hands behind the scenes are hiding among us, so it's the safest."
I have to admit that Mu Yunian's words are very reasonable. Let Qiu Lan think that the mastermind behind this accident is indeed likely to be hidden among the contestants. What purpose is achieved, if the plan changes, it is best to get involved and make adjustments as soon as possible.
It is estimated that the black hand did not expect the accident of honeysuckle, and directly killed the pseudo-dragon. The monks also spontaneously gathered around the honeysuckle to seek shelter.
The faces of everyone present were instantly ugly.
None of them are stupid, they were thrown into disarray by a series of accidents before, but now that Mu Yunian pointed it out, they all listened to it.
The various teams began to scatter each other unconsciously.
"Everyone may wish to think about it, what kind of person is most likely to be the real culprit behind the scenes?" Mu Yunian was like a patient teacher, persuasive and persuasive.
"Everyone...doesn't know anyone." Someone replied hesitantly.
Mu Yunian sneered, glanced over everyone one by one, and replied: "That's right, although we don't know each other, we all take part in the big competition with the sect as the team, and the same sect naturally knows each other, it just depends on who is single One person, who doesn't know the origin, is the most suspect."
After saying that, he looked straight at Qiu Lan, full of hints.
Qiu Lan met his malicious eyes, felt a thump in his heart, looked Mu Yu Nian up and down again, the more he looked, the more confused he was, he really didn't know this person, why did Mu Yu Nian insist on him?
Is it really just speculation, or does it have ulterior motives?
Qiu Lan narrowed his eyes, and heard Mu Yunian's next sentence: "If I remember correctly, this Mr. Shen Yucheng claimed to be a member of the Dongzhou Fangyuan School before, not to mention whether there is a Fangyuan School in Dongzhou, he just said it himself. He and Mr. Liandong also met halfway, and they are not from the same family."
"Has anyone here ever known Mr. Shen Yucheng?"
The monks looked at each other, looked at Qiulan, then at Lonicera, their eyes were a little subtle.
It's strange to know each other. Shen Yucheng fled to the snowfield with his parents since he was a child. He is still a mortal, so it is impossible for him to know the monks in the land of freedom.
Qiu Lan couldn't help looking at Liandong with complicated emotions, after all, he came here to participate in the competition and had nothing to do with Liandong, but——
Lonicera has always remained expressionless, making it impossible to see his emotional fluctuations.
Qiu Lan suddenly felt uncomfortable, and was a little powerless. Liandong rescued him, and he and Liandong searched for his wife together. On the way, Liandong took good care of him, and more or less formed friendships. Qiu Lan still wishful thinking that... they It's a friend.
In the end, he didn't even understand why Liandong was angry. Now that he was framed, Liandong was indifferent. He could understand it intellectually, but he couldn't accept it emotionally.
Mu Yunian was a villain, and continued to add fuel to the fire: "Mr. Shen, it seems that no one here knows you, and you are the one behind the scenes."
Qiu Lan: "..." It's really a convincing inference with reason and evidence.
Qiu Lan said: "I'm just a low-level cultivator, let alone a false dragon, I can't protect myself when I meet a cloud beast, and say that I did all of this, don't you think highly of me?"
Although he used to be a high-level monk, he didn't care about the burden of other monks' strength. Instead, he just wanted to get rid of the shackles and be an ordinary person, so he admitted that he was weak and very calm, and even a little bit confident.
Mu Yunian's face froze: "How do we know if you're faking it?"
Qiu Lan: "You don't know? Then it's over, if you don't know, how can you be sure that I am behind the scenes?"
Apple standing beside Qiu Lan suddenly shouted to Mu Yunian: "That's right, why do you say that about brother? Do you have evidence? You guessed? Then I guess you are the mastermind behind the scenes."
Apple was taken care of by Brother Shen all the way, so he didn't believe that he was a bad person.
Qiu Lan's heart warmed up, she slightly raised the corners of her lips, and looked at Mu Yu Nian calmly.
The crowd was dumbfounded. Looking at Shen Yucheng's appearance, it didn't seem like a guilty reaction after being identified. Could it really be him?
At this time, Xiangying suddenly stood beside Qiu Lan, and said softly: "I was almost buried in the mouth of a false dragon before, but Mr. Shen saved me. I trust him. Besides, if he is really the person behind the scenes, why bother to save me?" I."
After a pause, Xiangying raised her head, and added: "Speaking of which, Mr. Lonicera's origin is also unknown, and his cultivation is unfathomable. Isn't the suspicion even greater?"
As soon as the words fell, the crowd suddenly became noisy, and everyone turned their eyes to Lonicera, full of doubts.
Young Master Lian Dong is indeed more powerful than ordinary high-ranking monks, but such a powerful monk should have been famous long ago, but they have never heard of Young Master Li Dong's name.
It's really suspicious...
Qiu Lan was stunned, he didn't expect Xiangying to come up with a trick, and suddenly turned the conflict to Lonicera.
Others don't know, but Qiu Lan knows that Liandong is a member of the Snow Clan. The Snow Clan has always looked down on the Human Race, and their strength is much higher than that of the Human Race. .
Qiu Lan was in a very complicated mood, just now he secretly complained that Liandong didn't speak for him, but now that he has become a troubled brother, he can't complain anymore.
Looking up, even if Liandong was framed, she still remained unmoved. This is the confidence of the Snow Clan.
Qiu Lan suddenly felt relieved, maybe it's not that Liandong didn't regard him as a friend, it's just that he is calm when encountering things.
At this critical juncture, Jin Fengqing suddenly stood up and said, "Master Liandong belongs to the Snow Clan, how could the Snow Clan do such a thing?"
There was subtle smugness hidden in her raised chin and surprised tone, as if quietly showing off.
Qiu Lan was stunned, unexpectedly Liandong had already told Jin Fengqing his Snow Clan identity, he is not like the kind of person who likes to share his secrets with others.
Everyone was stunned for a moment.
The legendary Snow Clan?Does the Snow Clan really exist in this world?
It is rumored that the Snow Clan is born powerful, and the infants of the Snow Clan can stand at the top of the human race. The power possessed by the adult Snow Clan is nothing less than divine power to the human race. They live in the snowy field and disdain to deal with the human race. Master Lonicera is really Snow family?
Someone couldn't hold back his expression and asked Liandong excitedly: "My lord, is what Fairy Fengqing said true?"
Everyone held their breath, nervously waiting for Lonicera to answer.
Liandong raised her eyes, and gave a faint "um", wondering if it was Qiu Lan's illusion, for a moment Liandong's eyes fell on him, and then moved away quickly as if there was substance.
In the next moment, Lonicera's black hair gradually faded, revealing silvery hair, like a heavy snowfall coming slowly.
There were exclamations one after another in the crowd.
"It's really Snow Clan?"
"I've also met people from the Snow Clan."
"Oh my god, it's no wonder Mr. Lonicera is so good-looking and powerful. He killed the pseudo-dragon so easily. So the rumor about the Snow Clan is true. I thought it was a legend."
For a moment, everyone's attention was diverted, surrounded by Lonicera, and even Apple couldn't help but look at Lonicera's silver hair in wonder.
Qiu Lan was squeezed out of the crowd, scratching his head, the attack on him and Liandong just now was diverted attention, it seemed that it was going to be nothing.
Fine.
It's hard to feel the atmosphere that Mu Yu Nian had just worked so hard to create, thinking of this autumn, Lan looked at Mu Yu Nian.
Mu Yunian's face turned blue, and his eyes were gloomy. When he met Qiu Lan's eyes, the sinister hidden inside made Qiu Lan frown.
This person's original purpose is actually him, right?He was more thoughtful, Mu Yunian, who was so embarrassed and angry, might have another trick, so he had to be careful.
On the other side, everyone recovered from the shock, and they were still discussing the matter of the Snow Clan with the people around them, but no one brought up the topic of the black hands behind the scenes.
It seems to be calm, but once the seeds of doubt are planted, they will secretly grow in the dark, and they will break out of the ground just waiting for an opportunity.
Night is coming.
Everyone returned to the cave the night before, and sat down separately, consciously separated by a certain distance, and their voices were deliberately lowered, and they all moved closer to Lonicera intentionally or unintentionally, as if this would make them feel more at ease.
In the end, a strange scene of everyone surrounding the honeysuckle was formed.
Qiu Lan sensed that others were wary of him, so she took up a corner by herself to avoid suspicion, thinking about what happened today, she suddenly recalled——
Today, Liandong admitted that he is a Snow Clan, and he deliberately regained his silver hair, successfully diverting everyone's attention, isn't he... helping himself out?
This idea occupied Qiu Lan's mind as soon as he appeared, he turned his head and quietly looked in the direction of Lonicera, and found that there were quite a lot of people in the cave who were doing the same actions as him, all of them were peeping at Lonicera, especially the female nuns. He wanted to strike up a conversation, but Jin Fengqing stayed by Liandong's side tightly, making the female cultivators stop.
the other side.
Jin Fengqing noticed Shen Yucheng's gaze, and there was a trace of disgust in her eyes. She raised her head in displeasure, and saw the back of Liandong sitting next to her suddenly straightened, his muscles stretched obviously, and he propped up the slim long gown in a powerful arc. , like an innocent boy who is nervous when being approached by the person he likes, but at the same time exudes masculine charm unknowingly.
Anyone would be happy to be cared about by such a man.
But this unconscious behavior similar to that of a male creature showing off its feathers is not for her, but for Shen Yucheng.
Thinking of this, her heart was filled with unwillingness. It was the first time she had cared so much for a man when she grew up. She was unwilling to give up, unwilling to lose to Shen Yucheng.
Jin Fengqing peeled a sweet red fruit with light-white fingers. The sweet fruit was freshly picked and exuded an attractive fragrance. She held the sweet fruit delicately and handed it to Lonicera, whispering softly: "You haven't eaten all day, eat one."
Liandong could feel Qiu Lan's gaze, was he looking at herself?Why?
Are you angry that you didn't speak for him today, or did you guess that you intended to rescue him?
Will he be angry when he sees himself with Jin Fengqing?
Liandong pursed his lips subconsciously, feeling his throat was a little dry, he was afraid that he was acting affectionate again, and he could rejoice just because of Qiu Lan's look.
Then Jin Fengqing's words suddenly disrupted his thoughts.
Liandong glanced at her impatiently, didn't reach out to pick up the sweet fruit, and didn't speak, her attitude of rejection was very clear.
Jin Fengqing's expression froze, and she felt that Shen Yucheng's gaze behind her must be gloating at the moment, she would not give up, and quickly handed it to Liandong's mouth with a smile, and at the same time moved her face closer, deliberately pretending to be intimate, whispering like a lover Whispering between the two, the voice was deliberately sweet: "You... don't you want to know the truth about how he was killed back then?"
As soon as the words fell, Liandong was finally willing to look away, and looked at her coldly, his eyes seemed to be quenched with ice for thousands of years, cold and sharp, like looking at a dead thing, at the same time, invisible coercion unfolded, unceremoniously The ground crushed her with the gap in cultivation.
Jin Fengqing shivered subconsciously, frightened by that gaze, felt a momentary retreat in her heart, fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, her face was pale, and she almost collapsed to the ground.
No, she can't retreat!
It took her so much to grasp this man's weakness. This is the Snow King. He is No. 1 in the world, the only person in the world who has stepped into the divine realm. If she misses this opportunity, she will regret it for the rest of her life.
Thinking of this, Jinfeng Qing forced herself to smile and looked at Liandong: "I'll tell you when I get out of the secret realm."
Liandong looked down at her, but directly reached out to take Tianguo, and hung her hand in the air: "Don't force me to kill you." He couldn't kill people at will, because Qiu Lan would be unhappy.
After just a while, Jin Fengqing was already in a cold sweat, and he didn't dare to provoke Liandong easily.
The comings and goings of the two were all seen in Qiu Lan's eyes. Qiu Lan looked back and saw that the two were intimate, and they were all related to each other's little secrets. Maybe it was because of his overthinking. Today Lian Dong just followed Jin Fengqing It has nothing to do with him if he follows the trend.
However, whether intentional or not, Liandong helped him again, and he owed Liandong another favor.
What's even more troublesome is that Liandong is angry with him and doesn't want to talk to him.
That night Qiu Lan didn't sleep well, and for some reason his heart was beating so fast, he woke up in the middle of the night, then opened his eyes and stared at the beating flames in a daze.
"Hey." A small and dull voice came from nowhere.
Qiu Lan was startled, looked up and looked around, the monks were all asleep, the sound of breathing and snoring came one after another, it was not quiet, and the voice just now seemed more abrupt.
He stood up and looked towards the entrance of the cave, which was blocked by the monks with big stones, leaving only a small gap. As he approached, the voice just now appeared again.
"Deng...deng..."
In the dead of night, it becomes clearer and more permeating.
Qiu Lan opened her mouth, not daring to use too much voice: "Wake up, there is something outside."
After shouting this sentence, Qiu Lan turned her head and met Lian Dong's extraordinarily sober eyes. He was obviously not asleep, and the two people's eyes only exchanged for a moment and then quickly staggered away.
Liandong stood up suddenly and walked to his side without warning.
Ok?
Qiu Lan was pleasantly surprised, is she not angry with him anymore?
If it wasn't for the wrong situation, he really wanted to celebrate, but at this moment he could only put it aside and kicked the monk beside him.
The monks finally woke up faintly, and when they heard Qiu Lan's words, they immediately jumped up and picked up their swords, asking, "What is it?"
Qiu Lan shook her head: "There are voices breaking stones outside."
Gradually, the monks all woke up, gathered around the entrance of the cave with weapons, and looked outside vigilantly.
"It seems that there is a sound."
A female nun whispered: "Such a strange voice, could it be a ghost?"
"What the hell are you afraid of, a monk?"
"What's so scary about ghosts? They're all weak chickens, and they can return to the west with a single strike."
Qiu Lan, who occupied Shen Yucheng's body in the form of a ghost and didn't know whether he was a human or a ghost: "..." I always feel targeted.
A rough-looking male cultivator couldn't take it anymore, so he pushed away the people next to him, leaned into the gap in the cave, and looked out for a long time.
The person inside asked, "What did you see?"
The man didn't move for a while: "It's nothing, it's dark, hey, there seems to be a little red light..."
Before the words were finished, there was a loud "boom", and the seemingly solid boulder blocking the entrance of the cave burst open, and the fragments that flew out instantly flew to the monks in the cave without distinction, and also flew to the center of the cave, flickering and flickering fire.
Before anyone could react, the fire was immediately extinguished.
Qiu Lan was suddenly overturned by the huge wind force, soaring into the air, stretching out her hands to protect her head in shock, the next moment, her body fell into a warm and powerful embrace.
And very familiar.
The back of the head was protected by wide palms, and Lonicera's quiet voice came from above his head: "Are you injured?"
I don't know if it was Qiu Lan's illusion, but he heard a trace of concern in Liandong's tone, and he was sure that Liandong had forgiven him.
Ah, very good.
Qiu Lan stood up straight, looking at Lian Dong with a pair of almond eyes shining in the darkness: "I'm fine."
Liandong looked at his Qiji expression, and heaved a sigh of relief in his heart, God knows that the moment he watched Qiu Lan fly away, his heart would stop beating.
Liandong's eyebrows and eyes are full of nostalgia, taking advantage of Qiu Lan not being able to find out, unscrupulous eyes linger on his face, he doesn't know that he is angry with Qiu Lan, can't control himself from separating from Qiu Lan, is he torturing Qiu Lan, Still torturing himself.
At this time, intermittent screams of monks came from the darkness, mixed with the noise of panic and fear, followed by a strong smell of blood.
Qiu Lan finally came back to her senses, no longer thinking about what was left, and shouted: "Who brought the Ye Mingzhu last night, take it out quickly."
The noisy monks were quiet for a moment, and a few huge night pearls were taken out, and the cave was able to see light again.
Qiu Lan saw the scene outside the cave with the light of the night pearl, and a chill gradually rose from the bottom of her heart——
The outside of the cave was surrounded by dense cloud beasts, blocking the outside. Each figure was a little bigger than when they saw the cloud beast last time. The red copper bell eyes radiated blood in the darkness. In the dim light, it seemed that Shura, who was killing his life in the middle of the night, was slowly bending over and approaching the people in the cave.
"Ah ah ah ah..."
This high-pitched scream was like the prelude to a massacre. Following the scream, the Chaos Cloud Beast outside the cave roared and rushed in, crazily opening its blood-red mouth to bite the monks.
Liandong took a deep look at Qiulan, and pushed him into the cave: "Stay inside and don't come out."
Seeing that Qiu Lang didn't move for a long while, still standing there, he paused, and said again: "Don't be afraid."
After speaking, he flew into the group of Chaoyun beasts, standing tall, with no trace of sword shadow.
Leaving Qiu Lan with a wide and reliable back, as if she wanted to resolutely block all the suffering for Qiu Lan, it gradually overlapped with the back of Yi Guixue who rescued Qiu Lan from the traffickers when she was a child.
Qiu Lan's eyes widened, he was no longer the cowardly self he was when he was a child, he picked up a sword thrown down by someone from the ground, and joined the battle without hesitation.
Most of the monks gradually calmed down, took up weapons and rushed up to fight the cloud beast, and a small number of them huddled in the cave and refused to come out.
Qiu Lan raised his sword and rushed towards a Chaoyun beast, who knows, when he approached, the Chaoyun beast froze in a very human way, then turned around and ran away.
Qiu Lan: "?"
He stared at the next target again in disbelief, and rushed over even faster, before the tip of the sword touched it, the cloud beast turned around and ran away again.
Now it's not just him, the monks who were fighting bloody around him all noticed something wrong here, and shouted: "Shen Yucheng, why are these cloud beasts avoiding you?"
Qiu Lan: "??" How do I know?
The Chaos Cloud Beast kept attacking other monks, and people were injured from time to time, Qiu Lan could only look around to see who was seriously injured, and went to help drive one or two away when he couldn't hold on, sweating profusely.
Gradually, the monks also had no time to take care of this strange scene, and devoted themselves to the battle.
I don't know how long it took, but this long, murderous night finally came to an end, the east was white, and dawn came.
The huge group of Chaoyun beasts retreated in unison in an instant, turned around and ran away without looking back. They ran without warning and withdrew completely in the blink of an eye, leaving the numb monks who had been killed standing there blankly.
The monks collapsed to the ground, threw their weapons to the ground, and murmured, "I'm still alive."
Although Qiu Lan was not directly attacked, he ran around all night, sweating all over his body, and would sit directly on the ground, his whole body weakened as if all his strength had been exhausted, and his mind went blank.
He scanned the crowd with his eyes, and soon found Lonicera standing against the wall. Lonicera's expression was condensed. It was also a night of fighting, and everyone else was in a mess, but he was clean.
Looking at Shang Qiulan quickly moved away, the indifferent and alienated posture made Qiulan even suspect that the warm embrace last night and the person who told him not to be afraid were his hallucinations.
Jin Fengqing was standing beside Liandong, eagerly wiping his sweat, the white handkerchief deliberately stayed on the man's handsome and plump forehead.
Liandong was actually in a daze, and Qiu Lan was looking at himself again. He didn't know whether he should follow his inner thoughts, pretend that the previous things hadn't happened, or continue to treat Qiu Lan deliberately coldly. After all, even he himself didn't know what he wanted. do what.
If...if he is willing to go back to the Snow Clan with him, then forgive him, Liandong clenched his palms tightly.
Qiu Lan was looking dazzled when a figure suddenly appeared in front of him, interrupting his thoughts.
He looked away, patted the ashes on his clothes and stood up, it was Mu Yu Nian.
Pointing at Qiu Lan, Mu Yunian said loudly: "I said before that this man is the culprit of everything, but you still don't believe it. You all saw it last night. The Chaos Cloud Beast only attacked us but not him. The man behind the scenes is not Who is he?"
A monk whose leg was bitten off by the cloud beast and could no longer walk cried out, his eyes were red, and he rushed towards Qiulan: "Beast, I will kill you."
"It's all your fault, my legs, my legs can't walk anymore..."
"My hand is also useless, I can no longer hold a sword..."
Frustrated emotions are contagious, one person takes the lead, and the emotions of the people who were still numb gradually became emotional, some cried and some cursed.
Qiu Lan was also very tired. Looking at this scene, he knew in his heart that these people might not believe that he was the murderer, but they needed an outlet to vent their emotions, and he just happened to appear so unluckily, just right.
Well, one has to suspect that someone did it on purpose.
Qiu Lan looked at Mu Yunian with a calm expression: "Since the murderer can command the Chaos Cloud Beast like an arm, how difficult is it to control the Chaos Cloud Beast not to attack anyone? If I am really the murderer, why did I leave you with such an obvious handle?" ?”
Mu Yunian sneered: "Now that the evidence is clear, you don't want to confuse us with sweet words anymore. This person has caused us to be like this. How do you think we should deal with him?"
"Kill him!" one shouted.
Immediately, several people responded sparsely: "Kill him, kill him!"
After the war, blood stained the land, and the smell of bloody iron ran back and forth on the tip of everyone's nose. Everyone seemed to be immersed in this brutal and bloody atmosphere, and looked at Qiu Lan viciously: "Kill him."
Qiu Lan shuddered, this time, both Apple and Xiangying stood looking at him from a distance, they seemed to be very scared, they were held by the arms of their classmates, and they did not stand beside Qiu Lan again.
Everyone seems to have forgotten that when they were attacked by the pseudo-dragon, Qiu Lan ran under the mouth of the pseudo-dragon and dragged the fainted people to a safe place. Many of them had faces saved by Qiu Lan.
Everyone seems to have forgotten that when the cloud beast attacked last night, Qiu Lan went around to help them disperse the cloud beast and save them from death.
They just remember being annoyed and agitated to be involved in something like this, and having to vent their anger by killing someone who represents the culprit.
In a corner where no one else could see, Qiu Lan could see Mu Yunian curling up his lips and smiling contentedly. He picked up the long sword and stabbed at Qiu Lan without hesitation. Everyone around watched this scene silently. , without blocking.
Qiu Lan took a step back, squeezed the hilt of the sword in his hand, and looked back at Mu Yu Nian without fear, he would never retreat, and he was never afraid of death.
Just as the two swords met, there was a wailing sound of weapons. The next moment, Qiu Lan's eyes blurred, and saw the sword in Mu Yunian's hand being knocked to the ground.
The surrounding crowd was also silent.
Qiu Lan stared blankly at the firm figure in front of her, it turned out that what happened last night was not a dream.
Liandong stood in front of him, with his back turned to him, pointing the tip of the sword at Mu Yunian's neck, with a cold look on his face.
Only then did Mu Yunian come to his senses, and shouted redly, "What are you doing? Why are you protecting this villain? Are you trying to kill us all?"
Liandong said coldly: "Those things have nothing to do with him."
Mu Yunian asked back: "How do you know? Could it be you who did it if he didn't do it?"
Liandong suddenly took a step forward, and the tip of the sword also moved forward an inch. A thin line of blood appeared on Mu Yunian's neck. He panicked, and was so frightened by this man's aura that he just wanted to run away.
Liandong suddenly smiled, this was the first time Qiu Lan saw him smile, but it was not a smile that made people feel comfortable, but a smile that was superior and condescending to all living beings. Pause: "I don't need to prove it to you, because I can kill everyone here if I want."
Isn't the snow clan killing people as simple as killing an ant?
Naturally, there was no need to explain anything to them. All the people who heard this backed away in fear. Before, they only saw Lonicera's strength, envious of the sense of security that his invincible strength could bring, but completely ignored him. The most dangerous, most threatening existence.
No... It's not that they ignored it on purpose, but that this man deliberately put away his sharp minions and pretended to be harmless. How is this different from letting a wolf into a flock of sheep?
As for why this man tried so hard to pretend, the crowd turned their attention to Qiu Lan.
It's because... He, it turned out that he was Lonicera's bottom line, that's right, it was they themselves who broke the whitewashed surface and let the wolf show its fangs, which is tantamount to seeking its own death.
Mu Yunian reluctantly opened his mouth to continue, but was thrown away by the person beside him, Jing Shiqiang smiled and said, "Young Master Liandong, it was all a misunderstanding, just now we were bewitched by Mu Yunian maliciously, and we almost made a mistake. , please don’t worry about it.”
Xu Xiuzhu also added in time: "Yes, it was Mu Yunian who made the move just now, and we didn't stop it until we realized it." After speaking, he turned to Qiu Lan: "Mr. Shen, I'm really sorry."
When he saw that Liandong was not with Shen Yucheng, but with Jin Fengqing, he thought that this young master had abandoned Shen Yucheng for Jin Fengqing, but he was wrong, that Shen Yucheng actually held a lot of weight in the heart of Young Master Liandong. so heavy.
Qiu Lan was completely dazed by the rapid reversal of the scene, seeing the smiling face of the person who was shouting at him just now, he was suddenly relieved, and smiled wryly: "Then when you encounter trouble, For this kind of thing, react quickly, don't wait for the sword to pierce through me before stopping it."
He doesn't want to care about too many people, they are all passers-by, and after leaving this secret realm, he probably won't see each other again for the rest of his life. Now that he is exhausted, he really doesn't want to care about these people.
Xu Xiuzhu smiled awkwardly, and Liandong was finally willing to put down the murderous long sword, but this time he did not leave Qiu Lan's side, but stood silently by his side.
Jin Fengqing watched the farce on the sidelines. She gloated and thought that Shen Yucheng could finally die, but she didn't expect to die again. She sighed in disappointment. Going forward, although she didn't want to admit it, she was indeed frightened by Lonicera just like everyone else, and she couldn't help but touch the phoenix hairpin on top of her head. There is always a chance, after all, she still has what Lonicera wants here .
The cave was in a mess and it was obvious that they could not live any longer. After passing by the Chaos Cloud Beast, they were frightened by the honeysuckle just now, exhausted physically and mentally, so they found a random place to lie down and rest.
Qiu Lan leaned against a tree, looked up at Lonicera, and showed a pale smile: "Sit down."
Liandong sat beside him, her body tensed up, neither of them spoke, only the whispering of the wind and the singing of birds in the forest.
After a while, Liandong finally couldn't help turning his head to take a peek at Qiu Lan, but saw that Qiu Lan's eyes were closed, she was fast asleep, her head was moving bit by bit, and her unintelligent appearance seemed a little naive.
Liandong pursed his thin lips and looked straight ahead, but his shoulders quietly moved towards Qiu Lan's direction, which seemed a bit deliberate, but after a while, he managed to catch Qiu Lan's jaw that was about to fall, and his heart instantly swelled, unparalleled Satisfaction, that person sleeping next to him is the whole world.
Qiu Lan's breathing was very soft and quiet, just like him, soft and quiet. Listening to it, Lian Dong unconsciously closed her eyes, and slowly fell into a deep sleep...
When Liandong woke up in a daze again, his first reaction was to look for the sound of Qiulan's breathing and the smell of Qiulan beside him, but he failed. He suddenly opened his eyes, which were filled with the displeasure of the superior, He turned his head, but Qiu Lan was not by his side.
He stood up, and as far as his eyes could see, there was no sign of Qiu Lan.
Liandong clenched his fists tightly, the hostility and tyranny in his eyes could no longer be controlled, extending from the ground under his feet inch by inch, bringing the land where the wind and snow raged inch by inch.
The third time, this is the third time Qiu Lan escaped from him, he really hated this scene, eight years ago, eight years later, and now, the feeling of suffocation slowly spread to his heart, The darkness sneaked in, trying to control his mind in one fell swoop.
At this moment, all he wants is to catch Qiulan back, tie him up, and lock him up, so that he can never leave him without saying a word, so that he only has himself in his heart.
Seeing this strange scene, the people around were scared away and didn't dare to make a sound. Why did they feel that such a person had a sense of security before?
When the ice and snow were about to spread to the lake in the distance, a figure slowly approached, watching the blizzard centered on honeysuckle, and staying in place.
"What are you doing?"
Liandong's breath was stagnant, but her expression was still gloomy, she stared at Qiulan and asked, "Where did you go?"
Qiu Lan tilted her head and raised Wu Niao in her hand: "I specially caught one to apologize to you. I'm sorry about what happened the day before yesterday. Do you accept it?"
He still thought that Liandong was angry because of Wu Niao that day.
Liandong let out a sharp breath suddenly, only then did he see that Qiu Lan's clothes were soaked, presumably it took a lot of effort to catch that Wu bird, Liandong couldn't raise any temper all of a sudden, that's how this person can be Easily control his emotions and let his heart soften.
Qiu Lan still didn't understand the situation in front of her. The next moment, her eyes blurred, and Lonicera had already appeared in front of her, and then... her lips touched a piece of softness.
While he was in a daze, the other party was like a cunning general, commanding his mighty tongue to drive in, forcing him to have a romantic relationship together.
Qiu Lan was startled, he actually let Liandong do whatever he wanted, when he realized he wanted to push Liandong away, but he forgot that Wu Niao was still in his hand.
"quack."
Wu Niao, who was finally caught, flapped its wings again and flew away clamoring.
Qiulan: "..."
After the kiss was over, Liandong held the back of Qiu Lan's head with both hands, and the two people's faces were very close to each other, their hot breath hit each other's cheeks, and they were both panting, Liandong's voice was very hoarse: "You scared me to death .”
Qiu Lan raised her head and stared at him: "You scared me to death too."
After saying that, she pushed Liandong away, and Liandong looked at his flushed and pretty cheeks, and was pushed away halfway along with his strength, but her gaze was still fixed on him.
Qiu Lan took a deep breath, trying to hide the blush on his face, but not very successful, he complained half-truthfully: "You let my Wu bird go again."
Liandong: "Well, I'll catch another one for you."
Qiu Lan crossed Lonicera: "I'm a little hungry, hurry up and find something to eat."
Lonicera: "Well, good."
So the two of them looked for firewood, and the other looked for ingredients, pretending that nothing happened, as if they had a tacit understanding and kept silent about the talent's kiss. Are you angry with Qiu Lan?
Qiu Lan sits and eats in confusion, pretending not to care on the surface, but her mind is full of that kiss just now, what does it mean that Lian Dong kissed him?
He never thought that Liandong had that kind of meaning for him. After all, Liandong said that he has a wife. For this alone, Qiulan can't have anything to do with him.
What's more, Liandong had been ambiguous with Jinfeng before, so why did Liandong kiss him?
Just when everyone was eating quietly, the whole secret realm suddenly shook for a while, and then there was a huge impact sound in the distance.
The things in Qiu Lan's hand were shaken to the ground, she raised her head and frowned to look into the distance.
The monks were also frightened, they put down their food and picked up their weapons, and stood up vigilantly
