Not climbing the Qingyun Ladder

Chapter 57
Everyone's eyes first fell on Su Budu, and then they were attracted by Li Ru.

It was a female cultivator who wore a silver crown, her hair was tied up, and she was dressed in mysterious clothes. She looked very capable.

Her face was a bit ordinary, and she didn't look eye-catching.But as she stood there, everyone fell silent.

The younger ones looked a little blank, while the older ones were quite shocked.Duan Qin's seemingly calm face changed color. He gritted his teeth and two words almost popped out from between his teeth: "Li Ru."

Hua Xiangrong was always paying attention to Yao Yu's side for any signs of taking the opportunity to escape. The next moment, she felt slight fluctuations in spiritual energy.

Sure enough, when Li Ru came, Yao Yu couldn't stay any longer.It's just that he has been lucky enough to survive. Will he be so lucky this time?

Hua Xiangrong thought that Li Ru was not the only one who wanted him dead today. It would not be that easy to run away.

A familiar buzzing sound sounded, and Li Ru's Zeming fell steadily in front of Yao Yu, and the tip of the sword sank into the ground.

"You actually came out of seclusion." Cong Yi also stared at her with a look of shock on his face.

In fact, Feng Yuqing's death caused a stir in the world of cultivation, whether it was big or small.

Gu Chao came back from the dead and established the Canglan Sect, recruiting those who had problems with the various sects or those who had been expelled as elders, and appointed Xu Ximang, who had many enemies in the world of cultivation, and Ye Yingshuang, who had no enemies, as deputy sect leaders.

You must know that these two people, one has an eccentric and moody temper, and the other is indifferent and aloof from the world. It was originally thought that they would not join any sect, but in the end they were willing to work for the newly established sect platform of Canglan Sect.

More importantly, the monks were gradually surprised to find that these people seemed to be getting stronger and stronger.In just a hundred years, Canglan Sect has squeezed out the status of the original four major sects and become a new behemoth.

Not only that, they also fostered many new cultivating families to compete with the original cultivating families.

It's like the world of cultivation was shuffled after Feng Yuqing's death.

There is also the battle between Fire Phoenix Lord Ling Qian and the newly established Canglan Sect against Gu Chaosheng.

To be fair, that fight was exciting.

Ling Qian had murderous intentions towards Gu Chao at that time and wanted his life.It was also at that time that everyone saw Gu Chaosheng's strength after his rebirth.

After Ling Qian, the other two famous sword cultivators in the world of cultivation, Hua Wuxue and Li Ru, one disappeared and the other announced to retreat.Therefore, over the past hundred years, the monks have gradually come to realize that Gu Chaosheng is the number one sword cultivator.

Right now, the Ren Xia sword Li Ru, who has gradually become a legend among the younger generation, is right in front of them.

"When it's time to leave seclusion, you will naturally come out." Li Ru said calmly.

"Yao Yu, we haven't seen him for a long time. It would be impolite to leave without catching up with an old friend." She walked up to Yao Yu, and Ze Ming had already returned to her hand.

"You said he is Yao Yu?" Jie Jiuxian stared at the inconspicuous-looking man in black and asked.

"Why, don't you dare to show your true colors? Let me help you."

Li Ru stopped talking nonsense and started taking action directly.

Duan Qin stood aside with a gloomy expression, thinking about how to deal with the current situation.

Li Ru's departure from seclusion was indeed beyond his expectation.

His eyes turned to Ye Yingshuang, who was also present. Ye Yingshuang also had a look of surprise in his eyes.It seems that she did not expect Li Ru's appearance.

Here they fight, and the two of them look equally matched.

Li Ru's Zeming Sword has a fierce offensive and deadly moves. Yao Yu can find the right time to counterattack when he sees his moves.

After being unable to attack for a long time, Li Ru sneered, stepped back a few steps, and placed Ze Ming in front of him.

Yao Yu felt as if his hairs were about to explode, and he subconsciously wanted to turn around and escape.He was so impressed by this move that Li Ru used this move to seriously injure himself and almost kill him.

This is Li Ru's unique skill, one sword can kill fourteen states.

Those who have faced this trick like Yao Yu will definitely leave an indelible impression, and so will Feng Yuqing.

As its name suggests, this sword does have the momentum of the Fourteen States.The best knight in the world, with his heroic spirit, can make three thousand spectators drunk in a flash of youth with a sword.

Of course, the onlookers could only see the beauty, but those who faced her could feel the endless murderous aura.

Yao Yu faced this move again, and the fear in his heart emerged almost instantly.However, he has made progress in the past 100 years, so he calmed down immediately after being frightened.

There was a coldness in his eyes.Under the planning of the high priest, most of the people present were going to die.Just in time, let's see if we can send Li Ru away today.

He quietly activated another force in his body, and the disguise technique lost its effect, revealing his true appearance.

Hua Xiangrong looked at him from the side and felt that he looked very much like a person from this angle.

"This aura...is indeed a demonic cultivator!" Someone exclaimed.

"Pavilion Master Duan, if I remember correctly, you should have brought this person in." Cong Yi said with a sneer.

Duan Qin didn't speak. He stared at the battle situation in front of him and already knew his brother's choice.

That's all, that's all, if the worst happens, just break up.

"Pavilion Master Duan, maybe I can help you." Duan Qin was stunned for a moment, this was Ye Yingshuang's forced voice.

He didn't look back, but sent the message back: "How can I help?"

"It depends on how you..." The voice was cut off.

Duan Qin subconsciously turned around and looked in the direction of Ye Yingshuang.

"Pavilion Master Duan, do you think that Canglan Sect and Deputy Sect Leader Ye can help you?" Cong Yi asked after seeing him turn around.

Luo Jiuyu retracted his hand without leaving a trace, his eyes filled with narrowing eyes.

Then, she noticed a secret looking gaze. When she went to find the source, that gaze had already left.

who is it?Luo Jiuyu felt doubtful in his heart and quietly tugged Hua Xiangrong's arm.

"What's wrong?" Hua Xiangrong asked her.

Before Luo Jiuyu could speak, the two people who were fighting suddenly decided the winner.

Yao Yu stepped back suddenly and looked at Li Ru in disbelief.Li Ru's face looked a little pale, but his expression was high-spirited.The tip of her sword was dripping with blood, and there was a bloody hole in Yao Yu's chest.

"How...possible." Yao Yu murmured.

He just planned to use that power to directly kill Li Ru, but just when he thought he was about to succeed, he faced Li Ru's second sword.

A hundred years ago, this technique could only be used with one sword in fourteen states.Because one sword can defeat ten thousand armies.

So Yao Yu never expected that when he blocked the shocking sword and prepared to counterattack, he would be greeted by Ze Mingjian's second sword.

This sword was even sharper than the first sword, piercing directly through his demonic energy barrier and piercing his chest in exactly the same position as a hundred years ago.

The first sword just now was just a cover, her real killing move was hidden in the second sword.This thought flashed through his mind, but it was too late, he was completely defeated.

"Huh?" The high priest who was admiring the flowers with the Spirit Emperor stopped. After just a moment, she continued walking without intending to report the matter to the Spirit Emperor. "Yuntang, what's wrong?" the Spirit Emperor, who was still wearing a white dress, asked.Her perception is very acute.

"Yao Yu is injured." Yun Tang replied respectfully.

The Spirit Emperor nodded and continued admiring the flowers without saying a word about this matter.Yun Tang didn't say much and didn't seem to care about his life or death at all.

"Do you think he can come back alive?" Yun Tang asked Ling Huang.

The woman in the white dress reached out to touch the bare flower branches and said casually: "I guess not."

"A dispensable abandoned son, the people of the Canglan Sect will only watch with cold eyes. I'm afraid it won't be easy for him to survive." Yun Tang agreed.

Just when Li Ru raised his sword again and planned to kill Yao Yu, Duan Qin gritted his teeth and took one step forward.

Of course he knew what taking this step meant.It meant that the thousand-year reputation of Zhaixing Pavilion was ruined, it meant that he would become enemies with all the monks present, and it meant a difficult and bloody battle.

But he stood up anyway.

He walked up to Li Ru with a knife in his hand.

Hua Xiangrong raised her eyebrows.It seems that he may have chopped off Teng He. No wonder he was killed by the pavilion master of his own sect with no peace of mind. No one can figure it out.

"Duan Qin, what do you mean?" Li Ru asked with a sneer.

"Brother, you don't have to...cough cough cough..." Yao Yu started coughing up a large mouthful of blood.

This time he was even more injured than last time, and he couldn't run even if he wanted to.

His name for Duan Qin shocked most people present.

"If I remember correctly, Pavilion Master Duan does seem to have a younger brother." He Lanzhi, who had been silent and watched from the side, said.

This can be regarded as an old incident in Zhaixing Pavilion. Since it was quite a long time ago, people with bad memory may have forgotten it.

Back then, Duan Qin's younger brother went astray and practiced magic skills. Their master destroyed his spiritual energy and locked him in the water prison of Zhaixing Pavilion, from which he could never get out.But not long after that, news came out that he had died.

Later, their master returned to the west on a crane, and Duan Qin inherited the position of the Pavilion Master of Zhaixing Pavilion. This incident was gradually forgotten by people.

Now Duan Qin's title and He Lanzhi's words have reminded people who have lived longer of this old incident.

"If I remember correctly, Pavilion Master Duan's younger brother seems to be called Duan Yu." Dan Qiuzi, who was next to He Lanzhi, added without hesitation, watching the excitement.

"So, Duan Yu, the Moon Spirit Envoy of Yinglingzhong, is the younger brother of Duan Qin, the pavilion master of Zhaixing Pavilion. Duan Yu, I am not wrong." Cong Yi concluded.

Everyone fell silent, waiting for Duan Qin's explanation.

The Pavilion Master of the Star Reaching Pavilion wore a green robe and remained silent in the face of everyone's judgmental gazes.He protected Yao Yu behind him, and slowly raised the knife in his hand, turning into its original form, his own star staff.

The star bead on the top of the star staff shines brightly, showing the master's good cultivation.

Yao Yu struggled to stand up from the ground. He covered his wounds and stood side by side with his brother, like two lone wolves who were forced into a desperate situation.

I have to say that the brotherhood between these two is really sincere.

It's a pity that neither of them survived.

Hua Xiangrong didn't sympathize with them at all. She just wanted to ask some questions before they died, so she was thinking about whether to persuade Li Ru not to kill them first.

"That's it for now, let me ask a few questions first." Jie Jiuxian stepped forward, his expression unusually serious.

"So, is it true that the disciple who died in Zhaixing Pavilion has become a demon cultivator?" His tone was serious and painful.

All the monks present felt a little depressed.

Duan Qin and Yao Yu both chose to remain silent.

"You two don't want to say it, but I'm happy to oblige." Su Budu said.

He walked forward calmly, Hua Xiangrong and Luo Jiuyu followed him to prevent him from being suddenly attacked.

"It's you again..." Yao Yu said angrily.

"The dead disciple actually did not become a demon cultivator, but was contaminated with demonic energy. But Miss Qiling's sensitivity to demonic energy is stronger than ordinary people, so she killed her in one encounter. I said Is that right?"

Su Budu ignored Yao Yu's gaze and said softly.

"Yeah, we didn't expect that this little girl Jianzi turned out to be a rare light body, and the master of Congyi Palace hid it really well." Duan Qin said.

"But that day was actually planned by you." Yao Yu stared at Su Budu fiercely, and what he said was unexpected.

"It was you who led our disciple to the little girl with a luminous body, so that he was killed with one blow, and that led to the series of events that followed."

"Who are you? Why are you targeting me like this?"

As Yao Yu spoke, he coughed up a large mouthful of blood.Duan Qin quickly gave him the pill, while his lips moved imperceptibly.

Yao Yu's eyes flickered and he nodded almost invisible.

He wanted to buy enough time for them to leave.After their brothers successfully escape, they will one day take revenge and go back, leaving no one behind.

Yao Yu said coldly in his heart.

"Who am I? I'm afraid this isn't important to you, or at least it's not important now." Su Budu said indifferently.

The strings at his fingertips were thrown out, instantly binding Duan Qin's hands, and he couldn't move even with a slight effort.

Duan Qin couldn't break free, and his eyes gradually turned red.In Su Budu's almost cannibalistic eyes, several rays of spiritual energy hit him, destroying the transmission circle he had secretly prepared.

"I'll kill you!" Duan Qin roared angrily, and the star staff in his hand instantly blazed brightly. Rays of light struck Su Budu, carrying overwhelming anger and murderous intent.

Su Budu's sudden intervention could be said to have cut off their brothers' last hope.

Just as Luo Jiuyu was about to take action, Hua Xiangrong held her back.

Luo Jiuyu gave her a confused look to express his doubts. Hua Xiangrong said lightly: "I think he wants to solve it by himself."

The ethereal flute sounded, and the star staff's light stagnated, unable to move forward any further.As the sound of the flute became more and more passionate, the starlight was blocked by him, and he had a faint intention of counterattack.

This piece of music is different from the previous one, full of excitement and high spirit. It is hard to imagine that the flute can play such impassioned music.

Su Budu seemed to be venting his emotions.Hua Xiangrong heard relief from the music.

"This is... King Qin's white jade flute?!" Yao Yu looked at Su Budu with splitting eyes.

"How is that possible? Aren't you already dead?"

"Aren't you already dead too?" Su Budu said with a smile.
