The Path Toward Heaven

Jing Jiu said, The antidote.

Xiao He knew that she must not play any tricks with such a person.

With remorse, she took out a medicine pouch from her belt with her left hand and handed it over.

Jing Jiu took the medicine bag and threw it to Zhao Layue, and continued to ask, What is your status in Bulaolin?

Xiao He is a very smart girl, she didn't dare to hesitate, and said: The middle class, but it is very important.

From certain details, Jing Jiu confirmed that she was the boss of the man in black. The only doubt was that her level of strength was obviously not as good as that of the man in black.

Why?

Because anyone can be fooled by me...except you.

Xiao He said seriously to him: I really don't understand why you can see through me.

Yingcheng Xiaohe is a female cultivator with a vicious temperament. This is a disguise, but in fact she is a vixen who is naturally charming. This is another layer of disguise. If you tear off these two layers of disguise, you will probably find that you are a weak, innocent and pure girl, but who would have thought that this is still a layer of disguise?

Zhao Layue took the antidote and said, But as long as you don't be fooled by foreign objects, how can these deceive Jian Xin Tongming?

Xiao He shed tears and said, Who are you?

Jing Jiu didn't answer her question, but said directly, I want you to do something for me.

Xiao He's eyelashes trembled slightly, probably hesitating, but after a while she finally raised her head and said in a trembling voice, What's the matter?

Next year or beyond, you're going to meet a guy, and whatever he wants to do, I want you to help him.

Jing Jiu said, If this is done, I'll help you leave the Forest of Birth.

Hearing these words, Xiao He's eyes brightened, but quickly dimmed.

She really wanted to leave the Old Forest, but what a terrible place the Old Forest was, how could she leave?

Especially Bulao Lin's mysterious background, although she is not clear, but she also knows that not a strong swordsman can fight against it.

I can't believe you, she said sadly.

Jing Jiu said, You can only trust me.

Xiao He said, Then how do you trust me?

Jing Jiu said, I have confidence in your ability.

After saying this, he took her left hand.

The silver bracelet came from his wrist to hers silently, and could never fall off again.

Zhao Layue's eyes fell on the bracelet.

She has always been curious about Jing Jiu's bracelet.

She herself once had a bracelet that accompanied her for many years.

After arriving at Shenmo Peak, she realized that it was the Forsi Sword left to her by Master Jingyang's uncle.

So what about Jing Jiu's bracelet? Could it also be a peerless famous sword?

Why did he put this bracelet on the hand of this fox demon he just met?

...

...

Feeling the cold touch from her wrist, Xiao He once again felt extreme fear.

That bracelet was actually more terrifying than the other party's eyes, and it far exceeded the fear Bulao Lin brought to her.

She didn't know what this bracelet was, she just had a strong feeling that as long as she made a thought and reneged on the agreement with the other party, then this bracelet would cut herself in two—not just the hands and wrists, but every part of the body, even the soul.

Xiao He's face was very pale, and she said with a fearful expression: How can I know... who is that person you are talking about?

You'll know it when you see him.

Jing Jiu raised his hand and plucked the jasmine flower from her temple and put it in his sleeve.

...

...

Not long after Xiao He left, the coercion high in the night sky gradually disappeared.

The sea breeze poured into the ruined temple, making a humming sound.

Jing Jiu walked to the edge of the cliff, looked at the dark West Sea, and was silent for a long time.

He didn't think about anything, he just wanted to see the sea, because he was going to leave in a few days, and he wouldn't come back for many foreseeable years.

Zhao Layue walked up behind him and asked, For two years, killing people all the way, are you trying to get Bulaolin to notice us?

Not bad, because I'm looking for them.

Jing Jiu didn't look back, and said, Of course, these two years are also cultivation.

Zhao Layue said: Do you suspect that Bulao Lin has something to do with the failure of Master Uncle's ascension?

Jing Jiu said, First of all, it may not necessarily be a failure. Secondly, it is impossible to judge the relationship now.

Zhao Layue asked: Who did you say would come to her?

Jing Jiu said, I hope she won't meet that person.

Zhao Layue asked, Are you done?

Jing Jiu looked at the West Sea under the night, thinking of Bulao Lin, Liang Wangfeng, and Liu Shisui, and said, I haven't seen that person yet.

Zhao Layue was a little surprised, and said, Isn't she the one you want to see? Is it really the grandson of Xi Wang?

Yes, the person Jing Jiu wanted to see was Xi Wangsun, the host of the Four Seas Banquet.

The problem is that you can only meet this person if you participate in the Four Seas Banquet and win one of the prizes in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

Looking into the depths of the West Sea, Jing Jiu suddenly asked, Is it difficult to learn chess?

...

...

On the day of the Four Seas Banquet, many activities were held in Haizhou City. There were oirans patrolling the streets, a juggling troupe invited from Yang County, and of course a big show. Residents of Haizhou came out of their homes. It was very lively. The food vendors naturally smiled happily, but the sergeants in charge of security could not.

This is the world of mortals. The real feast of the four seas is held in the lonely mountains outside Haizhou. From early in the morning, sword lights and streamers of treasures illuminate the sky from time to time, and practitioners arrive one after another. Of course, most of the practitioners are not in the realm. They can only come by car from Haizhou City.

The warm sea breeze blows the green trees on the lonely mountain. If there is no white cloud in the blue sky, today may be hot and dry. The amazing thing is that no matter how the sea wind blows, the white cloud has never moved. It accurately casts its own clear shadow on the lonely mountain, bringing coolness to the participants.

On the side of the lonely mountain facing the sea, there are more than ten pavilions scattered in a patchwork manner.

The practitioners wandered around, admiring the sea view, talking in low voices, and looking up at the cloud in the sky from time to time.

The cloud was so thick that it looked like a white mist that was so thick that it could not be melted away. Sword lights and green smoke could be seen faintly in the cloud, and even cornices were looming.

This is the important place of Xihai Sword Sect - Yuntai.

The important figures of various sects have already been connected to that place, and the guests of the Four Seas Banquet will also be connected to the cloud later, but it is not likely that there will be too many people who can see Xi Wangsun with their own eyes.

Some of the towers in the lonely mountain are used to view the scenery, some are used to listen to the waves, and some are for practitioners to meditate. There are also a few larger towers, surrounded by white curtains, which move gently with the sea breeze.

The main activity of the Four Seas Banquet is going on here - chasing treasures with piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

Jing Jiu and Zhao Layue were still far away from the building, and some interested people discovered their identities.

They didn't cover their heads and faces with gray cloth, but the hats on their heads were still very conspicuous.

Qing Tiansi's people rushed over quickly.
