Qinghe Immortal Clan.

As Li Mufeng issued the order to defend "Guiyunfang" to the death, the entire "Xiaoyao Sect" also took action for this. Except for the necessary cultivators who were necessary to guard the sect's sacred mountain, almost all the disciples of the "Xiaoyao Sect" were recruited to the front battlefield.

Not only the disciples of the "Xiaoyao Sect", but also the large and small immortal cultivation families in the Wei State, as well as some immortal cultivation forces related to the sect that were stationed in the major markets under the jurisdiction of the "Xiaoyao Sect" all year round, have also received orders to support the front line.

They were asked to send some monks to "Guiyunfang" to help defend the city.

Although these people are either independent cultivators or professional cultivators who run businesses and are not good at fighting with others, there are also many people with higher cultivation levels among them, and even quite a few foundation-building cultivators.

If they were gathered together, they could form an army of thousands of monks, which would also be a considerable force in defending the city.

With the full mobilization of the "Xiaoyao Sect", the teleportation array in the "Guiyunfang" never stopped for the next two days, operating day and night to transport monks and supplies from the rear.

The next day, the teleportation array in "Guiyunfang" flashed with spiritual light under the drive of spiritual stones, and immediately began to run rapidly. A moment later, as the spiritual light in the array gradually dissipated, dozens of cultivators appeared on the stone platform above the teleportation array.

"Is this Guiyunfang? It's much bigger than your place!"

Li Xuanyi, who had just walked down the teleportation array, looked at the wide street in front of him and the tall buildings standing around him, and asked Song Qingyu beside him with some joy.

Song Qingyu nodded slightly and said, "Senior Sister Li is right. This is Guiyunfang. However, there are not many shops open on Zhanluan Street now. Otherwise, I would definitely accompany you for a good stroll."

"Yes! There will be opportunities in the future. I am not in a hurry to go back now. When you have defeated the army of monsters, you can take me around the surrounding area and let me broaden my horizons!"

"Okay then! It's settled. After we defeat the monster army, I will definitely accompany you around. Now I will take you to find Brother Seven first!"

After Song Qingyu responded with a smile, he took Li Xuanyi and Huang Siyuan, who came with them, and walked towards the meeting hall in the middle of the market.

Bai Yuxian and Xu Ziyan were busy in the meeting hall of the market town. Suddenly they heard someone report outside and hurried out.

"Qingyu, Siyuan, how come you are here so soon? I thought I would see you tomorrow!"

In the previous letter sent by Bai Yuxian, it was requested that Song Qingyu bring people to "Guiyunfang" for support tomorrow. Seeing the two women arriving early, there was a hint of surprise on Bai Yuxian's face.

"Hello, Senior Sister Bai!"

"When Senior Sister Bai sent the message, we were just about ready to set off, so we arrived a day early. Senior Sister Bai, don't worry, we have already arranged everything at Jinshanfang, and the flying boat will be able to reach Guyang Mountain early tomorrow morning."

"Oh, all right."

Bai Yuxian smiled and nodded slowly, then shifted her gaze to Li Xuanyi behind Song Qingyu, and asked curiously, "Qingyu, did this fellow Taoist come with you? I don't know what to call him!"

"This is Fellow Daoist Li from the Immortal Cultivation World of Donghuang Country. She has some friendship with Brother Seven and she came with us to visit him. I don't know where Brother Seven is now. I will go look for him first."

Hearing that Li Xuanyi was looking for Song Qingming, Bai Yuxian was slightly stunned for a moment, then smiled and waved at Song Qingyu and said:
"Junior Brother Song is still patrolling the formation at the city wall. It would be difficult for you to find him if you go there. I will send someone to look for him. You don't need to go there in person.

You must be a little tired since you just arrived, so hurry up and rest inside. Fellow Daoist Li is not only a good friend of Junior Brother Song, but also a guest of Xiaoyao Sect, so you don’t need to be too polite to us when you are here.”

After saying that, Bai Yuxian immediately called over a foundation-building disciple and asked him to quickly invite Song Qingming over. He then politely invited Song Qingyu and the other two in.

After bringing the three of them to the side room on the left side of the "meeting room", Bai Yuxian called a few disciples to serve them spiritual tea, and then he began to ask Song Qingyu in detail about the matters at "Jinshanfang".

Because "Jinshanfang" had been besieged by two demon kings, Bai Yuxian's letter only asked Song Qingyu to come here first this time, and did not call Huang Siyuan here in such a hurry.

After all, the two demon king armies over there still need some manpower to hold back one or two of them. Otherwise, once the other side captures "Jinshanfang", they will go west to join the demon beast army of "Guiyunfang", which will also increase the defensive pressure here.

Therefore, when Bai Yuxian saw Huang Siyuan and Song Qingyu appear together just now, there was a look of surprise on her face.

Seeing Bai Yuxian asking about this, Song Qingyu immediately told her about how Li Xuanyi had gone to "Jinshanfang" to find Song Qingming, and how with the help of this powerful ally, the three of them had joined forces to kill two demon kings and defeat the army of demon beasts.

The battle between Song Qingyu and the others and the army of monsters in "Jinshanfang" actually happened only two days ago, and they had not yet had time to inform "Guiyunfang" of the incident, so Bai Yuxian and the others were not aware of it.

When Bai Yuxian heard from Song Qingyu that the army of monks from the "Jinshanfang" had, with the help of Li Xuanyi, defeated the army of monsters that were besieging the market town and resolved the predicament there, she was slightly surprised and for a moment she couldn't believe it.

It was not until Song Qingyu took out the inner elixir from the "Golden Toad Demon King" in front of her that Bai Yuxian's shock slowly turned into a look of relief, and a smile appeared on her face.

After praising Song Qingyu and the other two, Bai Yuxian stood up and bowed to Li Xuanyi, expressing the sect's gratitude for her help.

Just as Bai Yuxian and a few others were talking in the room, another beam of light flew in from outside the conference room. It was Song Qingming who had hurried over after receiving the news.

After learning that Song Qingyu had come to support "Guiyunfang", Song Qingming, who had not received any news from "Jinshanfang" for several days, became a little anxious at the moment. He hurriedly dropped the things in his hands and rushed over from the mountain protection formation.

As soon as he entered the room, Song Qingming was a little surprised to see Huang Siyuan sitting opposite him. Then, when his gaze shifted to a somewhat familiar figure not far from Huang Siyuan, Song Qingming's face suddenly turned into a look of surprise.

"Daoyou Li, why are you here?"

Seeing Song Qingming's shocked expression, Li Xuanyi was not surprised at all. He stood up, bowed, and replied with a smile:
"Fellow Daoist Song, it's been a long time since we last met. I was passing through Wei State recently on some business and remembered that you were here, so I came to pay you a visit. Please don't blame me if this is a little abrupt."

Seeing Li Xuanyi's relaxed expression and greeting him, Song Qingming looked at the people sitting around him. He felt helpless and quickly bowed in return.

"Haha! Daoist Fellow Li is so polite. Your sudden visit really surprised me. But since you are here, you should follow me to the cave first, so that I can entertain you.

Senior Sister Bai, I will take Fellow Daoist Li back first, and come back to see you when I am done. Let Qingyu take over the inspection of the market formation for me!" Song Qingming responded to the other party, then turned around and explained to Bai Yuxian, wanting to take Li Xuanyi away first.

Seeing that Song Qingming wanted to entertain Li Xuanyi alone, Bai Yuxian quickly stood up and said, "Junior Brother Song, I just asked them to send me some excellent spiritual tea, and I haven't treated Fellow Daoist Li yet. It would be a waste if you take her away now.

Why don't you stay here first? I will take care of things over there. You just stay here with peace of mind. If you need anything, just let those people outside know.

Junior Brother Song, I have to tell you that Fellow Daoist Li helped Qingyu and the others to break the siege of Jinshanfang before, but he is someone who has done a great favor to the sect, so don't neglect him. You guys chat first, and I will come over to thank Fellow Daoist Li after I am done with my work."

After Bai Yuxian finished speaking, she gave Song Qingming a meaningful look, then turned around and walked out.

After Bai Yuxian left, Song Qingming's expression changed immediately and he looked very genuine. He said to Huang Siyuan and Song Qingyu beside him, "I have something to say to Fellow Daoist Li. You wait here for me!"

Upon hearing this, Song Qingyu and Huang Siyuan didn't say much and nodded immediately.

Then Song Qingming took out several formation flags and cast a spell to insert them around him and Li Xuanyi. Then a white mist surged up and immediately covered their figures.

After Song Qingming carefully set up a soundproof barrier again, Li Xuanyi, who was standing beside him, smiled and shook his head:

"Junior Brother Song, Qingyu and the others are not outsiders. I have already told them about your relationship with me. There is no need for you to take it so seriously."

Hearing Li Xuanyi's question, Song Qingming replied seriously: "Master has instructed that the sect's affairs must not be known to outsiders. There are outsiders everywhere here. I did this for safety reasons, not intentionally to guard against them.

Senior Sister Li, you went to the East Sea to cultivate immortals, so why did you return to Weiguo? Didn’t I tell you before that the Floating Cloud Mountains are now in chaos with monsters everywhere and it’s very dangerous. It’s best not to stay nearby in the next few years!"

"Junior Brother Song, Master asked you to look after me outside, not to manage my affairs. Besides, my feet are on my body, I can go wherever I want, you can't control this even if you want to!
I just came back and helped your family out of trouble. It would be fine if you didn't thank me, but you blamed me like this as soon as we met. Junior Brother Song, you really disappoint me. I was so kind to you in vain. "

Seeing that Song Qingming had a questioning tone right from the start, Li Xuanyi's face suddenly became a little bad, and she immediately criticized Song Qingming with a stern face and a hint of displeasure. Knowing the personality of his senior sister Li Xuanyi, who always liked to travel around and didn't like to be constrained, Song Qingming sighed helplessly in his heart and explained with a smile:
"Senior Sister Li, you misunderstood me. It is precisely because I know that you are good to me that I am afraid that you will encounter danger here. I did not mean to ask you about these things."

Senior sister, you don't know that this place is now trapped by a large army of monsters. The situation is very critical. I just saw you suddenly come here, and I was a little worried about your safety.

I didn't expect that Senior Sister has helped Qingyu and the others out of trouble. This is really a great help to our Song family and the sect. I will remember your kindness in my heart. If Senior Sister has any needs or instructions in the future, I will never refuse."

After Song Qingming finished speaking, he bowed to Li Xuanyi with a look of gratitude. Only then did the senior sister in front of him calm down her unhappiness and look a little better.

"Okay! I understand what you mean. This time I just happened to meet you and helped you out. It's not a big favor. There's no need to be so polite between you and me.

I came to see Junior Brother Song this time because I want to ask you for a favor. If you can agree to this, then we are even, and you don't have to worry about the favor anymore."

"Sister, if you need any help, just tell me. As long as I can do it for you, I will do my best!" Hearing that Li Xuanyi wanted to ask him for help, Song Qingming agreed without thinking too much.

Not to mention that the two of them were fellow disciples with a life-and-death friendship, just based on the great favor that Li Xuanyi had previously done in helping Song Qingyu and others to repel the siege of the army of monsters in "Jinshanfang", Song Qingming had no reason to refuse the other party at this time.

If Li Xuanyi had not acted in time, once "Jinshanfang" was breached by the army of monsters, the entire Song family territory and even the northeast of Weiguo would have surely suffered a devastating disaster.

Although Li Xuanyi's action was just a casual move, it was a great favor concerning the life and death of the Song family and millions of people in the northeast of Wei State. Song Qingming was naturally filled with great gratitude to her at this moment.

"Haha! Junior Brother Song, I've known you for such a long time, but this seems to be the first time I've found you agreeing so readily. Aren't you afraid that what I say will embarrass you this time?" Seeing that Song Qingming agreed so readily this time, Li Xuanyi asked back with a smile on his face.

"I did this before because of my own low ability, not because I felt that Senior Sister was deliberately making things difficult for me!"

After seeing a hint of embarrassment on Song Qingming's face, Li Xuanyi stopped teasing him and smiled and waved his hand:
"Okay! Junior Brother Song, don't worry. I didn't come to you this time because of something else. It's because I was practicing Master's Taixu Sword Technique and encountered some troubles. I wanted to see if you could help me solve it.

I always heard from Master that you are more talented than the rest of us brothers in understanding the techniques. I came to see you this time, and I think you won’t let me down!"

"As for the problem with the technique, I can give it a try, but Master's Taixu Sword Technique is not an ordinary technique after all, so I can't guarantee that it will work, but I will definitely try my best."

Hearing that Li Xuanyi had problems with her cultivation technique, Song Qingming felt relieved. After practicing Taoism for so many years, although his own spiritual roots were poor, Song Qingming still had some talent in understanding the techniques.

Back then in the "Taixu Sect", Song Qingming took a different approach and started from scratch, deducing a set of Nascent Soul Stage exercises called "Qingyu Refining Treasures", which was also recognized by his master, Taoist Lingxu, who also praised him in front of Li Xuanyi and other fellow disciples.

For this reason, Li Xuanyi, who was also extremely talented, was still somewhat dissatisfied in his heart and often intentionally mentioned the matter in front of Song Qingming.

However, he was somewhat surprised that Li Xuanyi came to Song Qingming specifically for the matter of martial arts this time. She was willing to put aside her pride and come to him for help. It seemed that she had really encountered some big troubles.

After explaining to Song Qingming the purpose of his visit, Li Xuanyi directly told him in detail about the troubles he had recently encountered with his martial arts, and then took out the engraved "Taixu Sword Art" in his hand and handed it to Song Qingming.

The "Taixu Sword Art" is a Jindan stage practice. When Song Qingming was deducing the practice in the "Taixu Sect" before, Taoist Lingxu had given it to him for reference. However, Song Qingming did not choose to practice this practice. At that time, he just took a look at it and did not study it in detail.

Although Li Xuanyi had previously deduced a set of Nascent Soul stage exercises in the "Taixu Sect", she later chose to switch to practicing the "Taixu Sword Technique" of Taoist Lingxu because the exercises she deduced could not make any further progress.

The reason why she was looking for Song Qingming this time was because she encountered some bottlenecks in the "Taixu Sword Technique" she was practicing, which resulted in her recent practice not being smooth. So she had no choice but to return to Weiguo from the East China Sea cultivation world to ask Song Qingming for help.

After knowing what Li Xuanyi wanted, Song Qingming opened the "Taixu Sword Art" and looked at it carefully for a while, then quickly closed it and returned it to Li Xuanyi.

"Senior Sister Li, I have already made note of this part of the technique, but it will take some time to comprehend it. Right now, there is a big battle going on in Guiyun Square, and I cannot be distracted by this matter. Please wait for a while.

It's very dangerous here right now. I'll arrange for someone to take Senior Sister away from here first. You take this and wait for me at Funiushan. I'll come find you right after the battle here is over."

After Song Qingming finished speaking, he took out a silver token that could prove his identity and handed it directly to Li Xuanyi.

Seeing the silver token in Song Qingming's hand, Li Xuanyi's face suddenly changed, and he waved his hand to reject him: "Junior Brother Song, I just arrived and you didn't even treat me well, why are you in such a hurry to drive me away?

Also, don't always decide where I should go without your permission. I know what's going on with me.

Although my cultivation level is not as good as yours, I am still a Jindan cultivator after all. You don't have to worry about my safety all the time, brother!"

Seeing that Li Xuanyi had misunderstood his words again, Song Qingming hurriedly smiled and shook his head, saying, "Haha! I said the wrong thing, please don't blame me, Senior Sister.

But as you can see, the fighting on the front line is intense right now, and it is really not very convenient here. When the war is over, I will definitely invite you to Funiu Mountain and treat you well to apologize to you.

Senior sister, please accept this token first. If you need to go to Funiushan Mountain, it will be more convenient to have this token with you!"

"Yes! You are right. There is nothing fun in this place, so why should I stay here? Don't worry, I will leave soon. After you finish the battle, I will go to Funiushan to find you."

Li Xuanyi smiled and nodded, then accepted the silver token from Song Qingming's hand.

Seeing this, Song Qingming, whose expression had returned to calm, cast a spell to remove the magic circle in front of the two people, and sat down next to Song Qingyu and Li Xuanyi, drinking tea and chatting together.

After they chatted for half an hour, a foundation-building disciple who often followed the sect leader Bai Yuxian suddenly walked in from outside the door and saluted respectfully.

"Uncle Song, the headmaster has something to ask you to come over."

Hearing that Bai Yuxian wanted to see him for something, Song Qingming hurriedly stood up, greeted Li Xuanyi and Song Qingyu, and then followed the visitor out.

Bai Yuxian, who was busy in the "conference room" on the other side, saw Song Qingming walk in at the door. She quickly sent everyone around her out and then asked Song Qingming to sit aside.

"Senior Sister Bai, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Bai Yuxian nodded gently upon hearing this and said, "Junior Brother Song, I came to you to ask you what your relationship is with this Daoist Fellow Li. How did Qingyu and the others persuade Daoist Fellow Li to help them out in Jinshanfang?"

"Senior Sister Bai, let me ask you first, do you want Fellow Daoist Li to stay and help us fight against the army of monsters?"

When Song Qingming heard Bai Yuxian asking about Li Xuanyi, he immediately guessed what Bai Yuxian was thinking and directly pointed out what the other party meant.

Seeing this, Bai Yuxian smiled and nodded, admitting, "Yes! I do have this intention, but whether this can be accomplished or not, I still need to ask you what you think first."

Song Qingming sighed slightly and said: "Now that our sect is in trouble, I naturally understand your intentions, Senior Sister Bai, but Fellow Daoist Li is indeed an extraordinary person, so I'm afraid this matter is unlikely to succeed.

Fellow Daoist Li comes from a family of immortal cultivators in the Donghuang Kingdom. Among the elders in the family, there are senior cultivators in the Nascent Soul stage. Although she and I are good friends, I am not very confident that I can persuade her to stay and fight against the monster army with us. "

"She is actually a cultivator from the Nascent Soul family. This is really a bit unexpected." Bai Yuxian couldn't help but sigh when he heard this.

When he first met Li Xuanyi, Bai Yuxian originally thought that she had met Song Qingming outside, and must be a Jindan cultivator from a small sect or a casual cultivator. Unexpectedly, she was from the top Yuanying family in the world of immortal cultivation.

If it was a casual cultivator or a Jindan cultivator from a small sect, Bai Yuxian felt that he still had some confidence and could persuade the other party with some spiritual objects as a condition. However, cultivators from Yuanying families must have much higher standards, and it was really hopeless to impress them with ordinary spiritual objects.

But now the army of monsters is at the gates of the city, and the "Xiaoyao Sect" is already at a critical juncture of life and death. For the survival of the sect, even if there is little hope, she, the leader, still needs to give it a try.

"Well! Junior Brother Song, thank you for your help. You can go back first. I will prepare some thank-you gifts for Fellow Daoist Li and will come right over." (End of this chapter)
