Mortal Bones

Immediately, after communicating with the tower spirit with their minds, the two of them disappeared into the cave.

And just a moment after the two people disappeared, a figure suddenly flew into the cave like a gust of wind.

In the hands of this figure was a young man wearing armor.

These two people were none other than Xuanyuan Xueluo and her subordinate who were watching the battle in Tianshuang Pavilion earlier.

"Amu, didn't you say they are in this cave? Where are the people?"

Xuanyuan Xueluo glanced at the cave, and then put down A Mu in his hand.

After Amu stood still, he sniffed the cave vigorously, then scratched his head in confusion and said:

"Yes, that smell of foreigners comes from this cave."

"And judging from the intensity of the aura, these two people should still be in the cave."

Hearing this, Xuanyuan Xueluo frowned tightly.

"That's all, if you can't see me, then you can't see me."

After a long time, she bit her lip and murmured with dark eyes.

"Lord Dutong, do you want to continue searching?"

A Mu looked at Xuanyuan Xueluo timidly.

"No need."

Xuanyuan Xueluo looked outside the cave, and the originally gloomy eyes became firm again and said:

"It's been ten years. It's time for us to go back. Tianshuang Pavilion has been taken over by Baihu Camp. From now on, there will be no more disputes in the Ningyuan Kingdom. Baihu Camp can concentrate on dealing with the ghosts in the west."

…

Xuanhuang Tower, exit from the seventh floor.

"We were supposed to go get the treasure box with the young master just now. It's still too dangerous for only Mr. Zhang to follow."

Gongshu Nanxing folded his hands on his chest and kept pacing in front of the huge bronze door.

"Miss Qingcheng, if the young master doesn't come over after burning incense, you should go to the seventh floor first."

Zhai Mo looked at Gu Qingcheng who was sitting at the door meditating with some displeasure.

"What about you?"

Gu Qingcheng asked with a frown.

"We won't leave until the young master comes."

Zhai Mo turned around without even looking at Gu Qingcheng.

"You two, I really didn't lie to you. If you can't immediately climb to the seventh floor of Xuanhuang Tower to stop Jiuyuan's conspiracy, it will be in vain for you to climb to the seventh and eighth floors."

Gu Qingcheng gritted her teeth and said.

"Miss Qingcheng, you have been telling us that if we don't save Xuanyuan Xueluo, everything we do will be in vain. Can you tell us the specific reason?"

Gongshu Nanxing asked Gu Qingcheng very puzzledly.

"Since you two are both Xuanhuangtian monks, have you ever heard that since Jiuyuan took complete control of Xuanhuang Tower seven hundred years ago, human monks have climbed to the ninth floor of Xuanhuang Tower?"

After a long silence, Gu Qingcheng suddenly asked the two of them.

Hearing this, Gongshu Nanxing and Zhai Mo were both stunned, then they both shook their heads and said:

"No."

It is well known in Xuanhuangtian that the monks in Xuanhuangtian have not been able to reach the ninth floor of Xuanhuang Tower for six to seven hundred years.

"I can't tell you the specific reasons here. I can only tell you that without the descendants of Zhenbei Mansion and Gongshu Nanxing, even if the human race has a genius, it will never be possible to reach the ninth floor of Xuanhuang Tower!"

Gu Qingcheng said with great certainty.

"Miss Qingcheng, do you know what's on the ninth floor?"

At this moment, Xu Taiping's voice suddenly sounded at the entrance.

"Master, you are finally back!"

Hearing this, Zhai Mo and Nan Xing both looked at Xu Taiping with surprise on their faces.

"I kept you waiting."

Xu Taiping smiled and nodded at the two of them, and then looked at Gu Qingcheng again.

Seeing Xu Taiping appear, Gu Qingcheng's originally serious expression suddenly relaxed——

She finally no longer had to worry about these people refusing to go with her to the seventh floor of the Xuanhuang Tower.

"Young Master Rusty Lion, I won't reveal it unless I tell you. There are things that once you say them out, there will inevitably be changes beyond what I deduced."

Gu Qingcheng sighed.

Hearing this, Xu Taiping's heart moved, and then he tentatively asked Gu Qingcheng:

"Miss Qingcheng, are you a monk who is proficient in the art of fortune-seeing deduction?"

"Young Master Rusty Lion, you actually know the art of fortune-telling and deduction?"

When Gu Qingcheng heard this, he was also surprised.

"A senior once told me about it, but according to her, there are not many monks in the Shangqing world who are proficient in the art of qi deduction."

Xu Taiping nodded.

When he was in Youyuntian, Fairy Lingyue mentioned the art of looking at qi to him, and Huang Laodao was a major practitioner who was proficient in the art of looking at qi.

"Indeed, I also learned this Qi-gazing technique by chance."

Gu Qingcheng nodded.

"Since Mr. Monk, you also know the art of qi-seeing deduction, you must also understand why I can't tell you the specific reason in advance, right?"

She then smiled bitterly at Xu Taiping.

"Miss Qingcheng, you don't need to explain anymore. Let's go to the seventh floor right now."

Xu Taiping nodded.

"Thank you for your understanding, Mr. Rusty Lion!"

Gu Qingcheng's face completely relaxed.

"but."

At this time, Xu Taiping suddenly walked to the front of the crowd, then looked back at the crowd and said:

"After reaching the seventh floor, no matter where you fall, you must follow me first. No matter what you see or hear, don't act rashly."

Everyone looked confused when they heard this.

Gu Qingcheng was stunned at first, but she immediately stretched out her hand and pinched it, then looked at Xu Taiping in surprise and said:

"Master Xiushi, are you also proficient in the art of qi deduction?"

Hearing this, Xu Taiping smiled bitterly.

How could he be proficient in the art of qi deduction?

It was just that Liantong had calculated in advance that after reaching the seventh floor, they would immediately encounter a disaster, so he reminded them like this.
