The jackdaws return to their nests, and the night is as cold as water.

Tang Ling was walking through a forest, and suddenly he felt that the trees were moving, the flowers and plants were moving, everything was surrounding him, but he couldn't find the exit.

She walked through the woods for three days and nights. Except for the sun and moon above her head, the surrounding scenery remained unchanged. She neither found the exit nor forgot the way back.

who am I?

where am I?

Where are you going?

I simply broke the jar and kept looking for it, until a faint floral fragrance suddenly lingered on the tip of my nose.

Following the scent of flowers, I passed through a row of tall trees, and my eyes suddenly opened up. My spirit was suddenly shaken, and I couldn't help but hold my breath.

In front of me is a grand sea of ​​flowers surrounded by woods. The moonlight seems to be particularly fond of this place. The plain white moonlight is spread out on the ground like a large piece of silk. The wind pushes the waves of flowers, and the fragrance is charming. In the center of the sea of ​​flowers, there are two huge banyan trees with intertwined roots. Drooping, pale pink flowers sway gently in the moonlight.

This scene seemed familiar for some reason.

Tang Ling avoided the flowers and moved forward carefully. The closer he got, the more he noticed that there seemed to be something where the two banyan trees were connected. When he walked under the tree, he found that it was a huge coffin that was completely black. He couldn't help but be startled.

The cool breeze passed through the jungle, and there were sounds of whimpering.

Tang Ling stood frozen under the banyan tree, and suddenly had a strange thought - this coffin... could it be the exit?

Without saying anything, she started climbing the tree using her hands and feet. Halfway through the climb, she suddenly felt an itch behind her ears, as if someone was talking.

At first, Tang Ling thought it was the sound of wind and ignored it. Until the sound kept ringing in his ears and even tended to get louder, he stopped for a moment.

Listening carefully, it was indeed not the sound of wind, it seemed like someone was shouting something.

When Tang Ling realized something was wrong, a shadow suddenly cast in front of his eyes.

Because she was facing up when climbing, she lowered her head to listen to the sound. The moonlight was bright at that time, and there was no shadow in front of her at all. The shadow now can only mean that something appeared on the tree, and It suddenly appeared when she lowered her head.

Is anyone coming?

Tang Ling suddenly raised his head and faced a pale and rumpled face, and his scalp exploded instantly.

A "person" squatted on the black coffin.

Tang Ling couldn't tell whether it was a human or not. He only felt that the creature on the coffin had deformed limbs and was thin and skinny, like a malnourished monkey. It was squatting and looking straight at her, with no expression on its face and the whites of its eyes occupying the area. More eyes were like pools of stagnant water, unable to make any waves.

It can be seen from the slightly rising and falling chest that this is a female.

Is this...a monster?

After the initial surprise, Tang Ling calmed down after discovering that it had no aggressive behavior.

The thing's mouth was closed tightly, but the voice behind its ears was still ringing happily, getting louder and louder. Tang Ling could even hear clearly what the voice was shouting.

"Tang Ling!"

Tang Ling opened his eyes suddenly. There was an unfamiliar carved bed board above his head. There were footsteps in his ears, and then familiar faces crowded into the bed board.

"You finally woke up. If you go back to sleep, I doubt whether you will be buried!" This face is white and has phoenix eyes, and is more beautiful than the woman.

"Yuan Yulang." Tang Ling rubbed his head and sat up.

Song Nan supported her and put a pillow behind her, "How do you feel? Is there any discomfort?"

"Senior brother." Tang Ling's eyes were still a little dull, and he turned to Wei Zhiming next to Song Nan, and finally landed on the tall man standing behind the three of them.

"Nangong...Xun?!"

The man in purple originally looked a little haggard, but when he heard these words, his starry eyes suddenly lit up, and a bright smile instantly appeared on his face, "You remember me? Little--"

Before he could say the word "black", Wei Zhiming blocked him and said succinctly, "You were in a coma for three days. That night, the King of Black Hell came to arrest Nangong Ling who had escaped from Fengdu, which shocked the scene. Senior Brother Song originally We came to Zhenchao Pass to watch the weapon refining competition, but something happened on the way and we were delayed a bit late. We happened to see the Nangong family acting strangely at that time and saved us. Gong Xun and Elder Lu were also brought back by the Black Hell King."

"The Black Hell King is the manager responsible for guarding and preventing Fengdu Ling from turning into a demon. They have been investigating the matter after Nangong Ling turned into a demon." Yuan Yulang explained.

This Black Hell King Tang Ling has also seen it in the records of the Lingxian Sect's library, so he has some understanding of it. Tang Ling's mind was a little confused when he just woke up. He struggled to digest the information and suddenly extracted a name from the information.

"Where is Nangong Ling?" Tang Ling said.

Several people were silent.

"he died."

Song Nan said, "There are too many things involved in the Nangong family. The Black Hell King who came this time is responsible for taking care of the sealed Nangong family spirit. This matter needs to be further investigated. However, Wei Zhiming and Nangong Xun are both normal human and ghost cultivators. Black Hell King The investigation has been clear long ago, and Nangong Xun needs to cooperate with the later investigation and no other people are allowed to interfere. After explaining it to several sects, no one resisted."

Tang Ling had long expected that Nangong Ling's lifespan was over, whether as a human or a demon, but he still felt very uncomfortable in his heart.

"Nangong Xun is also the spirit of the Nangong family. He was not sealed back then. Didn't the Black Hell King pursue him?" Tang Ling said.

"The Black Hell King has not taken over the care of the Nangong family's spirits for a long time. It is only because the Nangong family spirits have tended to turn into demons in recent years that he took the initiative to take care of them. Nangong Xun was not sealed when he was an ordinary spirit, but now he has become an official spirit. Ghost cultivators who have stable cultivation and have not transformed into demons are not within the control of the Black King of Hell."

Tang Ling nodded, thinking of the bloody storm that night, he was a little scared, "Those sects now..."

"Already gone." Nangong Xun finally added a word and sneered, "If it weren't for the Black King of Hell, I would never let those sanctimonious people go!"

These words are exactly the same as what Nangong Ling said.

Wei Zhiming glanced at him and said nothing.

"We didn't hurt anyone that night. After the matter became clear, many sects seemed fine on the surface." Song Nan said, "But the Guiyuan Sect... When Elder Lu came back to explain the matter with the Black King of Hell, he should also have been hindered by the Lingxian Sect. To save face, although Qi Sect Elder Liu Zheng and Dan Sect Elder Kida were seriously injured, they didn’t say anything on the spot.”

"What else can they say!" Yuan Yulang said angrily, "Tang Ling just scared them and didn't give poison, but those old useless people couldn't tell and took people's lives! What a big deal. No grace at all!”

"Isn't it really poison?" Wei Zhiming glanced at Tang Ling.

"Of course not!" Yuan Yulang said, "Look at those boys who were able to walk and talk the next day? When they met us later, they said they were saved by the elders of their own sect. Damn! Tang Ling really wanted to poison people to death, but no one It’s possible to escape.”

Wei Zhiming had become estranged from Tang Ling after the rookie competition. He didn't know much about her, so he was a little surprised to hear this.

Tang Ling nodded.

"The "poison" given that night was just for a brief punishment, but if it was not detoxified in time, although it would not kill people, there would still be a regression in cultivation."

Tang Ling sneered, "But in the eyes of those people, retreating in cultivation is probably the same as killing them, right?"

"By the way." Tang Ling said, "Are Qingcheng and the elders of the Lingxian Sect okay? Why don't you see Qingcheng?"

She remembered that at the last moment, several elders from the Lingxian Sect also came to help, which surprised her.

"Elder Tui still has some things to deal with here. The other elders stayed for two days and saw that several sects had already left. There was nothing to do here, so they went back to Lingxian Sect." Song Nan said, "Fu Qingcheng left after confirming that you were fine. ."

"Oh……"

Tang Ling felt a little disappointed for no reason.

She had been away from home for several years in the cultivation world, and this guy never waited for her to wake up and say a few words before leaving.

"It's the right time for you to wake up." Song Nan suddenly said.

"what?"

"Early tomorrow morning, the boat to Fengdu will arrive at the pier. Then you guys will take the boat first. I have arranged a place for you in Fengdu."
