Long Aotian's apprentice always pretends to be weak

Chang Le didn't notice the dislike in Chu Huan's heart. After hearing this question, he smiled and replied: "Of course I know the disciple of my junior uncle, my junior brother."

The tone was very natural, not at all as shy as Chu Huan had just imagined.

Seeing this, Chu Huan felt relieved, and then said dotingly: "I still have something to do with your junior brother, so I'll leave first."

"Then when little uncle is free, I'll go to Ling Huafeng to find you!"

"Okay." Chu Huan smiled.

After Chang Le finished speaking, he walked behind Chu Huan in a few steps: "I'll go ahead and find my uncle~"

Chu Huan nodded, then he looked away, and when he passed by Xiao Zhuo, he said, "Let's go."

"Ah."

During the short hour in Zhaoyang Hall, the drizzle outside the door has stopped, some rainwater has accumulated on the ground, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds floating in the sky, and the air is full of freshness and pleasantness.

Xiao Zhuo, who had just walked out of the hall, glanced at the tall figure in front of him and pursed his lips tightly. Now he felt a little more gap in his heart.

It turns out that Master treats people close to him differently from him.

After a while, he lowered his eyes and said to himself, after all, he has just entered the master's sect, and after staying for a long time, he may be able to get closer...

Chu Huan, who was walking in front, didn't notice that the people behind him were not as active as before, and his thoughts at this moment were all on what Master Xuanhong said about the back mountain.

After returning to Tianyan Sect, he asked the senior brother who was in charge, but obviously he didn't know about it in detail.

Not long ago, he went to the forbidden area of ​​the back mountain alone, but found nothing. The back mountain was as quiet as if it was not a forbidden area. Even the sealed place in ancient times had long since disappeared.

There was no clue about everything, so he put his hope on Xiao Zhuo.

Thinking of this, Chu Huan turned his head and glanced at the Son of Heaven who was following behind him. Although the talent in front of him was only at the early stage of foundation establishment, he had the luck of the whole world on him, and this alone was enough.

If Xiao Zhuo were to go to the back mountain with him, it might be a little different.

……

Although there are similar palaces and pavilions in Tianyan Sect, not all of them are there. Most of the buildings and paths have their own characteristics.

The road he is taking now is obviously not the road to Ling Huafeng.

Xiao Zhuo looked around the scenery, then quickly walked a few steps to catch up with the person in front and asked: "Master, where are we going?"

"Back Mountain."

"Back Mountain?"

Xiao Zhuo suspected that he didn't hear clearly, and asked, "Isn't the back mountain a forbidden area?"

"Yes." Chu Huan nodded without explaining.

Seeing this, Xiao Zhuo didn't continue to ask any more questions, but still walked behind Chu Huan.

Before reaching the back mountain, there are more and more trees and flowers around, and all kinds of vines are twisted and beautiful, twisted and blooming on the thick branches.

Many of the dead branches and rotten leaves that fell on the ground were corroded and turned into a black mass, whose original shape could not be seen.

Chu Huan took the spirit sword Fen Yuan behind him in his hand, then took out another sword from the storage ring and threw it into Xiao Zhuo's arms behind him.

"Take it for self-defense."

"Okay!" Xiao Zhuo glanced down at the sword in his hand, feeling much happier in his heart.

The two continued to walk forward, and when they reached the small path, a tree branch growing horizontally in front of them blocked their way. Chu Huan walked in front, and shattered the tree branch without any mercy. It fell, and there was a layer of wood chips on the ground full of rotting leaves, and then he walked over on the wood chips.

Xiao Zhuo followed closely behind.

After they walked far away, the branches that had just disappeared sprouted countless new ones from the break, and within a few breaths, they blocked the road again...

But after a while, Chu Huan and Xiao Zhuo walked to the depths of the back mountain, where strangely shaped trees with branches grew wantonly, compared with when Chu Huan first came, there was no change.

Even so, he did not let his guard down.

"Look around and see where there are traces of seals." Chu Huan whispered to the people beside him.

After hearing Huan's words clearly, Xiao Zhuo was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "Yes."

After a long time of calm, Xiao Zhuo couldn't help but ask Chu Huan why he came here, a layer of dead leaves that had just fallen from the ground was suddenly blown up by gusts of cool wind blowing from nowhere, forming a strange bloody color. The texture looks weird.

After Chu Huan saw the lines clearly, the corner of his mouth curled into a slight arc.

He was so familiar with this pattern that it was even engraved in his mind, the same pattern was engraved on the head of the sealed ignorant ghost clan.

Thinking about it, the ignorant ghost clan was attracted by the smell of the Son of Heaven.

Chu Huan then looked at the vigilant people behind him and said, "Pay attention to your surroundings."

"Master, be careful too!"

As soon as the words fell, the layer of dead leaves continued to change, and it looked carefully that they wanted to surround Chu Huan and Xiao Zhuo in a circle.

Chu Huan was already proficient in forming formations, so the flaws in the formation in front of him could be seen at a glance.

He held the sword in his right hand, grabbed Xiao Zhuo's arm with his left hand, and flew aside.

The dead leaves under their feet seemed to have intelligence, and when they saw the action of the two, they immediately erected a barrier with the increasing cool wind.

The spirit sword Fen Yuan let out a sword cry, and that seemingly solid barrier instantly collapsed.

After the dead leaves turned into powder, not a moment later, many tree-root-like objects suddenly appeared around, growing rapidly, spreading to Xiao Zhuo's side, trying to pull the person in front of him while Chu Huan was not paying attention.

However, before Xiao Zhuo's ankle was wrapped around, it was cut off by Chu Huan with a sword.

Immediately afterwards, a trace of panic flashed across Xiao Zhuo's gaze, before Chu Huan could turn around to see what it was, Xiao Zhuo pushed him aside.

Chu Huan staggered for a moment, turned around and saw Xiao Zhuo was holding a sword in both hands against an extremely thick tree root, and his face, which was still in good condition just now, was scratched by the tree root dancing around.

Seeing this, Chu Huan immediately chanted a mantra, and Fen Yuan flew out in response. Several sword lights flashed, and the extremely thick tree root was cut off.

Then the broken root writhed feebly on the ground for a moment, then it turned into a puff of smoke visible to the naked eye and disappeared into the air.

Not far away, the person with blood on his face came over quickly with a worried expression on his face: "Master, are you alright?"

Before the words fell, a golden light flashed, and all the branches and dead leaves on the ground were reduced to ashes.

At this moment, a rumbling sound came from nowhere, as if the stone gate that had not been opened for a long time was now opened, dull and solemn.

Then Xiao Zhuo who was in front of him suddenly slipped and fell into the door that opened under his feet.

Chu Huan quickly knelt down on one knee and grabbed Xiao Zhuo who was already hanging in mid-air. Before he could be pulled up completely, the door suddenly changed its direction, and the two of them fell down together when their feet were empty.

The spirit sword Fen Yuan flew out of the scabbard in an instant and caught the two of them.

Chu Huan held Xiao Zhuo in his arms, and just as he was about to fly upward with the sword in his hand, the stone door that fell in was instantly closed, and the door was so tightly sealed that even paper could not be squeezed in.

Chu Huan's movements paused for a moment, and he had to fall down.

Because the fall was too sudden just now, even Chu Huan couldn't stand up in time, so in order to prevent Xiao Zhuo from falling innocently to death, he could only hold him down in his arms.

Now he let go of his hand, and saw that Xiao Zhuo's face was blushing a little from the boredom.

This appearance reminded Chu Huan of some bad things in his mind, and he subconsciously glanced under Xiao Zhuo.
