Alternative white lotus

Since Si Chengyi said so, it is definitely impossible for Ning Ze and the others to leave just like that. After all, Wu Qingxin is also a member of Tianxuanmen.

In the following days, Ning Ze and the others thoroughly eliminated all the remaining monsters, and carefully searched the surrounding area.This made them find something.

In the woods not far from Guangling Gate, Ning Ze turned over an unrecognizable corpse on the ground.

The corpse had already begun to decompose, so I couldn't tell what it looked like, but the apricot-yellow Taoist robe on his body was very familiar.

Mo Xi stood aside: "People from Huang Xuangu."

"I'm afraid it has something to do with them." Ning Ze also recognized it.

These few days they kept Xiaoteng and Yun Jianzhi guarding the cave, and they went to He Yunshan to clean up all the monsters entrenched there.It's just a pity that the Tianxuanmen disciples stationed there have all suffered accidents, and none of them survived.

Later, in the process of cleaning up the monsters, they found several corpses, all of which were disciples of Huang Xuangu's sect.

Although he felt that Huang Xuangu must have done something, but now he has no clue about what happened, so Ning Ze could only keep his doubts in his heart.

It was still a few days before Si Chengyi came out. After returning to the cave, Ning Ze simply took out the inner alchemy of the monster, and began to absorb the spiritual power inside, so as to slightly improve his cultivation.

There are many monsters here, but the only one with inner alchemy is the monster that can transform into a human form, which makes Ning Ze a little disappointed.

When he woke up from meditation, the monster inner alchemy in Ning Ze's hand had disappeared.

He let out a long breath, opened his eyes, and saw Mo Xi sitting next to him, looking in the direction of the stone chamber.

There was a rustling sound from inside the stone room, and then the stone door slowly opened to one side.

Si Chengyi reluctantly stood by the wall, as if he was a different person, his face was pale, there were faint dark circles under his eyes, and he looked haggard.

Ning Ze hurriedly stood up to meet him: "Senior Si!"

"They should be waking up." Si Chengyi said weakly.

Ning Ze looked over his shoulder, and saw that a layer of fur had been carefully laid on the ground. Wu Qingxin and the woman were lying on the fur, their faces were ruddy, and they didn't have the lifeless feeling before.

"How are you?" Looking back, Ning Ze turned his attention back to Si Chengyi.

Si Chengyi took a deep breath, did not speak, but turned his head to look behind.

Wu Qingxin on the ground frowned, and after a while, the brows relaxed again, and then the eyes trembled, and slowly opened.

Ning Ze keenly felt that Si Chengyi's eyes had changed from the calmness before to the meaningless one.

Wu Qingxin sat up with a blank face, looked at the door of the stone room, and was still a little confused: "The elder?"

Soon his eyes became clear, as if he remembered what happened to him, he quickly turned to look at the woman beside him: "Alan!"

Seeing that the woman's complexion was as usual and her breath was even, he felt relieved, stood up and said to Mo Xi, "Why did the Grand Elder come here?"

Ning Ze took Wu Qingxin's series of actions into his eyes, and saw that his gaze swept over Si Chengyi without even the slightest fluctuation, as if he didn't know Si Chengyi at all.

Ning Ze stole a glance at Si Chengyi, only to see that Si Chengyi did not look at Wu Qingxin, but cast his eyes on the woman on the ground.

Mo Xi explained the situation to Wu Qingxin, and Wu Qingxin was a little annoyed.He was ashamed and said: "I followed Alan when I received a call from He Yunshan's disciples for help, but unexpectedly, I was attacked by Huang Xuangu's people, and both Alan and I were seriously injured. I was really careless."

"Huang Xuangu?" Mo Xi raised his tone slightly, signaling him to continue.

"When we came here, there was already a little strange fog here. Alan and I sneaked in out of curiosity, and saw people from Huangxuangu gathered together, discussing something mysteriously. In the end, we only heard them talking What about the sword test meeting, and said that the monsters are starting to be difficult to control..." Wu Qingxin recalled the previous events, "Afterwards we walked around and saw that they seemed to be using some method to create monsters... We were attacked afterwards, did the grand elder save us?"

"He was the one who saved you." Ning Ze gestured to Si Chengyi who was beside him.

Wu Qingxin didn't know Ning Ze, so she took another look at him before she noticed Si Chengyi next to Ning Ze.He thanked: "Thank you for your help."

Si Chengyi took a deep look at him and didn't speak.

"Elder Wu, take a rest first." Ning Ze was worried that Si Chengyi would lose his composure, so he deliberately interjected, "Senior Si is also tired, so we can talk about it later."

After speaking, Ning Ze raised his hand to touch Si Chengyi, and Si Chengyi woke up like a dream: "You're welcome, I'll do it easily."

Wu Qingxin felt that the person in front of her was a little strange, but she didn't think too much about it.He only cared about his Taoist companion, and said: "If there is a chance, I will repay you with the spring."

After speaking, his eyes drifted to the female cultivator.

Wu Qingxin went to take care of the female cultivator named Alan. Ning Ze gave Mo Xi a look, and regardless of Si Chengyi's displeasure, he forcefully pulled Si Chengyi out.Yun Jianzhi and Xiaoteng also wanted to follow out, but were stopped by Mo Xi.

The three of them walked far away all the way, surrounded by silence.

Si Chengyi staggered when he was walking, and was dragged and dragged by Ning Zelian and almost fell down. When he stopped, he raised his eyebrows and was about to get angry.

"Senior Si, he doesn't seem to know you." Ning Ze said directly.

Si Chengyi's words of reprimand came to his lips, but he fell silent when he heard his words.

Speaking of which, Ning Ze and Si Chengyi have only met twice. When they met for the first time, Si Chengyi looked rebellious, and his tone was not kind and impatient when he spoke.

But now at this time, he always looks a little out of his mind. The wind is blowing outside at this time, and the breeze blows his messy hair at the temples. Coupled with his expression, he suddenly gives people an extraordinarily sad feeling.

But hundreds of years can really forget a person completely, not even remembering his face?

Mo Xi looked at Si Chengyi for a moment, then suddenly asked, "When did you meet him?"

"It's been six or seven hundred years." Si Chengyi said calmly, "I have nothing to regret. I have seen the people I should see, and I have no worries about ascending in the future."

Mo Xi shook his head: "You look like this, can you still ascend?"

Si Chengyi rolled his eyes, and his tone was not kind, but his voice was weak, and the words he called him were no longer as strong as before: "Of course I know if my own affairs are okay."

"What does the Grand Elder know?" Ning Ze asked sharply.

Ning Ze understood everything, and Mo Xi was very satisfied.He nodded and said: "Wu Qingxin's aptitude is not the best, but he was also one of the most famous disciples of Tianxuanmen back then. When he was traveling in Jindanqi, he was accidentally in danger, and his seniors and brothers were attacked by monsters. In order to protect everyone, he risked his life Fighting with monsters, even though he killed the monsters later, he himself was seriously injured."

While Mo Xi was speaking, Si Chengyi's eyes had already fixed on his face: "And then?"

"His cultivation base has lost a lot, and his mind has been confused for decades before he cultivated. It's just that his cultivation base has progressed extremely slowly since then, and he has completely forgotten the past." Mo Xi lowered his voice, "No matter what you have with him, she doesn't remember it now. Alan was her apprentice hundreds of years ago. The two fell in love with each other and became a Taoist couple. They are one of the most immortal couples in Tianxuanmen."

Si Chengyi said indifferently: "So what?"

Ning Ze said: "You should look away..."

"I just came here due to the evil fate of the year." Si Chengyi said, "Now that the matter is over, I should go back to Changmeng Valley. Once I go this time, I will devote myself to cultivation. In the future, I will shatter the void and fly away. Wouldn't it be much happier than staying in this world of mortals?"

When Si Chengyi said this, his voice became louder and louder, "Cultivating the Tao is to have a pure heart and few desires, and only seek the Dao."

He lowered his voice and shook his head again, "I'm leaving now, be careful yourself."

Ning Ze thought about it, but he didn't want to stay.

Wu Qingxin has another love, no matter how good Si Chengyi is, there is no way to interfere.What's more, Si Chengyi pretended to be indifferent, and he couldn't pierce it, otherwise wouldn't it be too cruel.

"Take care." Ning Ze said softly.

Mo Xi also said, "Be careful on the road."

Si Chengyi turned around and took a few steps, waved his hand with his back to them, and it turned into a blue light and disappeared into the distant mountains.

Mo Xi said: "He was originally at the stage of transformation."

Ning Ze didn't understand, so he said, "Yes, he is close to ascension."

"...Why bother." Mo Xi shook his head, "Do you know how his cultivation is now?"

Ning Ze had some ominous premonition in his heart.

Mo Xi confirmed his speculation and seemed to say: "His cultivation base has been greatly damaged, and now he has not even reached the Golden Core stage. He sacrificed his life to save others, but ended up in this field. Not only do people not remember him, but they also love him. He wants to ascend , can only practice from scratch.”

Mo Xi's words were obviously not worth it for Si Chengyi.

Ning Ze thought about it carefully. If it was him, he might go back to Si Chengyi.After all, the road is chosen by oneself, and whether it is successful or not, it is all voluntary.

"Senior Si has his own consideration." Ning Ze said, "Elder Tai thinks it's not worth it?"

Mo Xi lowered his eyelids, but the corners of his mouth curled up slightly mockingly: "People who cultivate immortals naturally put their cultivation at the top of their list. Of course it's not worth it."

Hearing what he said decisively, Ning Ze didn't know how he felt.

In the cave before, Mo Xi was extremely worried about him, although he knew it was because he saved Mo Xi, he still felt happy.But it was only now that he deeply felt that Mo Xi was indeed different from him.

He had no choice but to say reluctantly: "What the elder said is true."

The two stood very close, but the distance seemed to suddenly become very far away.

Ning Ze's tone was not unusual, but Mo Xi always felt that what he said just now seemed a little inappropriate, but after thinking about it, he felt nothing.

Cultivating the Tao is naturally the most important thing in cultivating the Tao.

Back then, he almost fell into it and killed himself, but now he has learned from the past.

Ning Ze has a gentle personality, and Yun Jianzhi seems to be tempted by him, so he has to beat him from time to time.

...Of course Ning Ze didn't know what he was thinking.

When they returned to the cave, the female cultivator named Alan had already woken up.

Wu Qingxin glanced behind them, but didn't see Si Chengyi, and asked suspiciously, "Where is that senior?"
