The Path Toward Heaven

In order to get rid of the somewhat embarrassing feeling, she continued to ask about the topic that Gu Qing mentioned just now.

Why does Zhao Layue attach so much importance to this restaurant?

I only know that this is the place where my aunt killed her for the first time, I don't know anything else.

Gu Qing said: She killed a disciple of the Underworld.

Xiao He's face suddenly turned pale.

Lu Qing shook his head and said, Don't think about it, we didn't mean to kill you.

Xiao He still didn't dare to relax, she stared into his eyes and said, Anyone who sees me, I'm Liu Shisui's trouble.

If the matter of Zuo Yi in Bihu Peak is resolved, Liu Shisui's future will be bright.

But if he was always accompanied by a sinful fox demon, it would naturally be affected.

And with Liu Shisui's behavior style, this matter cannot be resolved unless the fox demon disappears completely.

No wonder Xiao He knew that this was the place where Zhao Layue killed someone for the first time, so she felt so vigilant and uneasy.

Liu Shisui didn't see you as a trouble, so you are not his trouble. In the same way, Liu Shisui is not my Shenmo Peak's trouble.

Lu Qing smiled and said: But now it seems that my Shenmo Peak will indeed become Qingshan's trouble.

That's because some people in Qingshan regard Shenmo Peak as trouble.

In Xiao He's eyes, Lu Qing's smile was no longer so hateful, but became more confident and cute.

...

...

Nine days later, the sun set as usual.

The sun on Shangde Peak seems to be moving faster than other places, and the temperature in the mountains drops sharply at night, and frost gradually condenses on the pine trees between the cliffs.

After all, it has been several years since Yuan Qu walked on the mountain road on ice and snow, and he felt a little uncomfortable. However, he still remembered those roads very well, and it didn't take him long to find the residence of the disciples of Shangde Peak, and called out Junior Sister Yushan without alarming anyone.

Junior Sister Yushan brushed off the ice and snow from his clothes with some distress, and suddenly thought of something, she hurriedly dragged him to a very remote place behind the cliff, and said nervously, What are you doing here secretly? It is impossible to save people.

Seeing her anxious appearance, Yuan Qu thought it was cute, and deliberately teased her and said, Why not? Didn't you lead the way?

Junior Sister Yushan gave him an annoyed look, and said, What are you thinking? There is only a deep and terrifying passage leading to the Sword Prison. I can't even get close to the forbidden cave. How can I take you there... No! No! I can't take you there even if I can, it's the Sword Prison!

Yuan Qu thought to himself, isn't it just a well, the description is so exaggerated. Immediately afterwards, he was a little surprised that Junior Sister Yushan actually knew about the forbidden cave, and also about the well. You must know that ordinary Shangde Peak disciples cannot get in touch with these, let alone she has only been in Shangde Peak for a few years.

Due to various reasons, fewer and fewer disciples are willing to take up the sword to go to Defeng, let alone girls.

Junior Sister Yushan was actually the only female disciple newly recruited by Shangde Peak for decades, so she was naturally extremely favored.

Yuan Qu didn't expect this, and found that Junior Sister Yushan seemed to have a good life in Shangde Peak, and felt jealous for some reason while being happy.

Junior Sister Yushan didn't notice the change in his expression, and asked nervously, What are you doing here?

I don't know either. Yuan Qu said in a daze: Uncle Shi asked me to come here to find you, so I came here.

Junior Sister Yushan was stunned, and said, Junior Uncle Jing Jiu, what does this mean?

Yuan Qu said: Don't worry about it so much, the teachers think about things, we just do things obediently.

Junior Sister Yushan thought the same reason, but senior brother, it is not convenient for you to go into the cave to drink tea, so what are you going to do next in such a cold night?

Yuan Qu took her to the other side of the cliff, passed through a small forest, and came to a black rock protruding from the snow.

The black stone is facing the starry sky, and a field of hardy wildflowers grows below it.

Junior Sister Yushan was wondering why her senior brother would be so familiar with the road to Defeng Peak, when she suddenly saw this strange beauty, she immediately forgot about those questions.

Before the flowers are under the stars, let's talk casually.

...

...

Yuan Qu is very familiar with Shang Defeng, and someone is more familiar with him than him.

Jing Jiu has lived here for a long time, if calculated carefully, it may even be longer than the time he lived on Shenmo Peak later.

At that time, both the master and the master were still there, but in order to prepare for the ascension, the elder brother was the peak master in Shangde Peak, so he naturally practiced here.

At that time, he was still very young, just like Liu Ada, he was still interested in many things, especially his cultivation realm was improving too fast, and he would have a lot of free time in certain stages that required time, so he often walked between Shangde Peak, looked at all the scenery, and found many hidden passages.

Even his senior brother and Yuan Qijing are not as clear as he is.

He still doesn't like it here, because it's too cold, both inside and outside are icy cold, and there is a bit of damp.

This coldness from the outside to the inside was naturally due to the existence of the Sword Prison.

He is also very familiar with Sword Prison.

But he never thought of saving Liu Shisui from the sword prison without telling everyone.

Because some people can't hide it.

Even if he can hide it from the world now, there is still no way to hide it from the other party.

No matter which passage you enter the Sword Prison, you will be discovered by the other party, and you will naturally be discovered by it when you leave the Sword Prison.

So he has always wanted to know what it did when his brother escaped from the Sword Prison seventeen years ago.

A starlight fell from the extremely high sky.

From below, the mouth of the well there looks like a dot.

At the bottom of the well is an extremely empty hole, extremely dry and slightly chilly.

The starlight fell, like a beam of light, shining on the huge black dog like a mountain.

Qingshan guards, corpse dog.

Jing Jiu fell with the starlight.

Naturally, he did not fall from the mouth of the well, but from a secret passage between the cliffs.

He fell to the ground, his clothes hanging down like lotus leaves, without making any sound.

He didn't breathe, he didn't seem to have a heartbeat, he didn't have a body breath, he didn't even have a sense of existence, just like a lifeless stone.

Even in the face of a sea-breaker practitioner, as long as the other party closes his eyes, he can be sure that the other party will not find him.

But he knew that the corpse dog must have found himself.

Corpse Dog has seen too many dead people.

Even a real, temperatureless corpse still cannot escape its perception.

The corpse dog opened his eyes and looked at him quietly.

Starlight fell on them.

The corpse dog's eyes are very calm, seemingly devoid of any emotion, like an ancient well without waves.

Only Jing Jiu can see the deepest warmth in the deepest part of its eyes.

That warmth is not for him, but it is innate.

Jing Jiu said, You have worked hard all these years.

The corpse dog's eyes are very indifferent.

I thought you'd like that kid and be willing to teach him something.

Jing Jiu said: Now that I think about it, this is indeed a delusion. No matter how resembling he is, he is not a senior brother after all.

The corpse dog turned his head to look at the deep passage, expressing his agreement and... nostalgia.

No two leaves are exactly alike, and no two people are exactly alike.

Jing Jiu was silent for a while, then continued: Senior brother is right, we can't step into the same river.

The corpse dog gave him a sympathetic look.

It knew that Jing Jiu took the risk of being discovered to come to see him, besides taking that disciple away, he must have something to ask.

Brother, did you let him go? Jing Jiu asked.

The corpse dog looked at him quietly, and gave his own answer with his spiritual sense.

no.

But you didn't stop him when he left.

I didn't stop you when you locked him here.
