  Seeing Duanmu Changqing approaching, Qin Luoyi took out the "Huangji Jing" and "Bodhi Heart Method" and returned them to him.

   "Have you decided to read "Supreme Sutra"?" Duanmu Changqing looked at her pretty face with dark eyes, and the tenderness in his eyes flashed away.

   "Yes." Qin Luoyi pursed his lips and smiled lightly.

   "Junior sister decides to read "The Supreme Sutra"?" With a delicate smile, accompanied by a voluptuous figure, she landed in the courtyard. It was Liu Qingcheng, the fifth senior sister. "Little Junior Sister has been in seclusion for half a month. Could it be that she is reading the "Supreme Sutra"?"

  Fourth senior brother Rong Yunhe fell down with Liu Qingcheng.

"Little sister, although the "Supreme Sutra" is the most powerful of the three masters of the Piao Miao Sect, it is extremely difficult to master. Hey, I think the fourth brother and I wasted a lot of time in vain. In the above, if you fail in the end, and you have to practice other mental methods, if you want to practice the "Supreme Sutra", you must think about it." Liu Qingcheng held her hand and said with a serious expression on his face.

In her opinion, Qin Luoyi is too far behind her own aptitude, and the family behind her is huge and has a deep foundation. ** It is even more impossible for Qin Luoyi to leave Xuanfu.

  Duanmu Changqing's face turned cold, and she was very displeased that Qin Luoyi had just started to have sex, and she said such frustrating words.

"You can't do it, it just means you have poor aptitude!" Hei Di glanced at her, and said with a sneer, "You haven't been able to do it for a long time, but she's done it in a few days. Can your aptitude compare with hers?"

  In the past half a month, it has encountered Liu Qingcheng more than once, and Liu Qingcheng secretly plotted against it, plotting tricks not once or twice, and wanted to give himself a contract... It's just a scorpion who wants to eat swan meat, wishful thinking!

  Not according to her own appearance, she is a Xuanfu cultivator, like a goblin, she only knows how to confuse men with her beauty, and she wants to contract it? If it had to choose between her and Qin Luoyi to make a contract with, it would rather choose Qin Luoyi, at least it was more pleasing to the eye than her.

   "Have you released the power of the stars?" Duanmu Changqing quickly came back to his senses after being startled, and looked at her with great joy.

   "So fast...how is it possible?" Liu Qingcheng's enchanting face turned pale, her eyes were full of disbelief, and a hint of jealousy that couldn't be concealed flashed away.

If this is true... In half a month, she has released the power of stars, and the power of stars has been released from the most difficult and profound "Supreme Sutra" of the Piaomiao Sect, isn't it? That is to say, Qin Luoyi is better than her sexual talent?

  She doesn't want to believe it! This must not be true! It must be Hei Di, the animal, who was dissatisfied with his desire to contract it and deliberately bluffed her!

   "Congratulations, Junior Sister." Surprised, Rong Yunhe congratulated her with a smile.

   Suddenly, the young junior sister's physical talent is really amazing, no wonder she was accepted by the head master as a closed door master, and what's even more commendable is that she can actually make alchemy.

   It's just how many grades of elixir she can refine, neither the grandma nor the master master kept silent. Liu Qingcheng asked a few times, but they all laughed it off, obviously wanting to keep it a secret.

  Seeing their surprised and unbelievable expressions, Qin Luoyi smiled, nodded and admitted, Mingyan's face was calm and calm, and he was not overly proud because of it.

  Duanmu Changqing looked at her with softer eyes, and the golden sunlight shone on him, making his slender figure look more handsome and tall, as rich as jade.

  Liu Qingcheng's chest heaved violently, and she secretly gritted her silver teeth in anger. Unexpectedly, in Zongli, Duanmu Changqing, who is notoriously ruthless, also looked at this woman differently.

Before Qin Luoyi came to the Piaomiao Sect, her sexual talent was definitely second to none among all the female prostitutes in the sect. Wherever she went, there were countless envious eyes following her, but now... Qin Luoyi Yi used the "Supreme Sutra" to activate the power of the stars in half a month. Thinking that she would definitely replace her in the future, and be looked up to and envied by others, she had the urge to have sex.

   "Junior Sister, I just said that I will leave Piao Miao Sect early tomorrow morning, so you can prepare early." Rong Yunhe said with a smile.

In fact, the original words of the master are, if Qin Luoyi quits the **, she will leave early tomorrow morning; Her body is not good.

  Because there is a storage ring, Qin Luoyi doesn't have anything to pack and prepare, and the frequently used things are all stored in the storage ring.

  After Liu Qingcheng and Rong Yunhe left, Qin Luoyi went to the main peak to meet her. Duanmu Changqing walks together.

  Knowing that Qin Luoyi has been able to absorb the power of the stars, and that what he wrote is the "Supreme Sutra", Headmaster Ge is very happy.

With Duanmu Changqing on his back, Qin Luoyi told her the strange phenomenon after she absorbed the power of the stars, thinking that she had lived for thousands of years and was the master of a sect, so she might be able to help her. Confused.

   As it turned out, it was the first time Headmaster Ge had heard of such a thing, so he immediately mobilized his spiritual power and observed her body with his spiritual sense. Qin Luoyi's dantian really didn't have the power of a star.

   Pacing and wandering in the room for a long time, she couldn't find the answer, so she could only let her continue to sleep. Maybe after a long time, after absorbing more power from the stars, it would be able to condense in the dantian. He also guessed that such a situation might have something to do with the Hunyuan Dzi in her body.

"Hunyuan Dzi can help people absorb the power of the stars, and there are extremely unusual phenomena when they are promoted. As for whether they are like you, the power of the stars will be absorbed in the internal organs, there is no question." Everyone knows, after all, the people who got this bead in the past are no longer there, so if they want to inquire about it, I am afraid there will be many difficulties."

  Qin Luoyi was a little disappointed, even his own wife didn't know why this happened. Now we can only take one step at a time.

  Back to Yuqing Peak's room, Dahei looked extremely excited, with unconcealable pride in the corners of his eyes and brows. In contrast, Hei Di looked a little downcast.

   "Hurry up, hurry up and swear, or we will leave tomorrow." Dahei urged Heidi with a smile.

  Qin Luoyi raised his eyebrows curiously and asked silently.

Dahei shook his head and said proudly: "It wants you to take it down to Shihuya to get its treasure, but we can't take it down for nothing, can't we? We discussed it. If you take it down, it will take the storage ring Give it back to us, and then swear with the heart demon that it will not be taken back again, and it must be protected by our side for ten years, and it must not refuse when it needs help."

Originally, it wanted to keep the Black Emperor for twenty or thirty years, but now that Qin Luoyi was able to absorb the power of the stars, and with that Hunyuan Dzi Bead in his body, it might be able to release it in twenty or thirty years. The Yu Mansion is in the Purple Mansion, and with the Black Emperor by his side, they will have one more helper in case the vision produced by the Hunyuan Dzi Bead when it was promoted is discovered.

  But Hei Di disagreed with life and death, and almost fought with it, and only agreed to protect them for ten years.

Although it is far from its original intention, it can still accept it. Moreover, although it cannot get the treasure under it, they are naturally sensitive to treasures. In the next ten years, it will definitely make full use of it. Little by little, let Qin Luoyi take Hei Di to travel all over Penglai Immortal Island and Tianxuan Mountain, and sweep away all the treasures that can be looted on these two lands!

  Qin Luoyi was a little surprised, but even more surprised. Unexpectedly, Dahei reached such an agreement with Heidi.

  Whether it is a human monk or a beast, if you swear by your inner demon, you must abide by it, otherwise it will be fulfilled, demonic obstacles will arise everywhere, and you will definitely go crazy when you are married, and your cultivation base will be useless from then on. Such an agreement is neither beneficial nor harmful to her.

  Under Dahei's urging, Hei Di reluctantly made an oath with the heart demon.

Qin Luoyi glanced at Dahei approvingly, and Dahei happily handed over the storage ring to her, because the object of the Heidi's heart demon oath was Qin Luoyi, he held it in his hand, and Heidi snatched it away, Not bound by the oath of the heart demon, and what's more, if these spiritual plants are taken like this, the effect will be greatly reduced. If they are refined into pills, the effect will be infinitely better.

   Things were also given, and the vows were made, Qin Luoyi simply went to get the spar on the lion and tiger cliff that could be crushed and returned.

  The person in charge of the spar is a Xuanfu monk, and Qin Luoyi knows him. In the Piaomiao sect, I am afraid that there is no one who does not know the closed door master who is in charge. Martial sage's cultivation base fell under the lion and tiger cliff, and there was still no place to teleport the formation. After two or three days, she was found alive. She created a miracle for countless years!

  When he handed the spar to Qin Luoyi, the expression on his face was both suspicious and worried.

  Qin Luoyi casually explained that she had dropped something, and she wanted to go down and get it back. Then he jumped into the lion and tiger.

  Of course, Dahei and Heidi had already been put into the bracelet space by her in advance. In the Piaomiao Sect, except for Duanmu Changqing, ** and Wu Shishu, who knew that Heidi was brought up from Shihuya with a bracelet, the rest of the people only thought that Heidi was Dahei's friend. Big black.

  Qin Luoyi descended from the sky, accompanied by Hei Di and Da Hei, Shi Hu Ya Xia suddenly boiled.

   Mang Niu was circling Hei Di's treasury, when he saw Hei Di come back, he turned green first, and then greeted him with great joy.

  Hei Di put all kinds of spiritual plants, spiritual fruits, and crystals in the treasury into the storage ring that he carried with him, and went around under Shihuya again.

There is no need for it to speak, every time it goes to a place, just glance around with its eyes, there will be a huge beast take the initiative to leave it for half a month, the treasure that the Hei Emperor expressly forbids to be picked and dug is handed over, covered in sweat Like rain, for fear that Hei Di would be upset, he would let them be wiped out, and his mind and soul would be scattered.

The things that can be seen by the Hei Di are the best of the best. Others that are slightly inferior, or immature spiritual fruits, and younger spiritual plants, Hei Di naturally despises them. Those things, It has been allowed to be used by other beasts.

Three hours later, they turned back to the place where the teleportation formation was engraved. Seeing that Qin Luoyi and Hei Di were about to leave, Mang Niu also had a few vicious beasts that were obviously very powerful. He bowed down and said that he was willing to follow them forever, hoping that Hei Di would take them away together.

  They are powerful, so naturally they don't want to stay in such a place for the rest of their lives, never going out.

  This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity... No, it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, although they don't know how Hei Di left in the first place—they only saw him pounce on Qin Luoyi, and then disappeared.

At first, I was worried that something bad happened to it, but now that it came back safely, the only worry in my heart was gone. Hei Di took away all the things it had accumulated over tens of thousands of years, whether it will come back is a problem, Even if they want to come back, I don't know how many years later, if they miss this opportunity, maybe they will never have the chance to go out.

  Dahei smiled. He looked at Hei Di, then at Mang Niu, his eyes were full of calculations.

  Hei Di felt a chill down his spine, and instantly felt as if he was on the cutting board to be slaughtered. It's not a small price to pay for coming down by yourself.

Thinking of this, it waved its paws, pointed to Dahei and Qin Luoyi and said to them with a serious expression: "I can't take you out, let alone say whether to follow or not. If you want to go out, go find them." Let's discuss it."

  The eyes of several fierce beasts lit up, and they stood in front of Qin Luoyi and Dahei excitedly, and sincerely expressed their request.

  Qin Luoyi smiled at the corners of his lips, and his thick eyelashes drooped slightly, like a beautifully curved curtain, covering the glimmering light that flickered in his pupils, which were as clear as glass, and made his heart flutter.

   "It's fine to take you up there, but you have to sign a contract with me, otherwise we won't talk about it."

   "Form a contract?"

  The expressions of Mang Niu and others suddenly changed. The contract with humans must be a soul contract, and Dahei also formed a soul contract with her... This indicates that they will be under her control for the rest of their lives.

Leave?

leave?

  There is a war between heaven and man in their hearts!

  Although they can go to the outside world after leaving, they feel depressed just thinking about handing over their lives to a human being with weak cultivation.

Although staying here can never leave here, they can have a long life, and their cultivation level, although they were under the Black Emperor before, this is their world when the Black Emperor leaves, and they can be allowed to dominate and run amok !

   "Another condition line?"

   "Yes, I will give you all the treasures I have these years, as long as you take me away!"

   "Me too."

  …

   No beast is willing to form a contract with Qin Luoyi, and wants to exchange things with her. After all, compared with **, these things can be obtained again in the future based on their cultivation.

   "If that's the case, that's all." Qin Luoyi glanced at them, turned and left.

Since it can't be used by her, she naturally won't take it out. She has a lot of secrets on her body, the Hunyuan Dzi Bead, the space bracelet that can pass through human and beast... It can't be connected with her life. With her current cultivation base, she must Cannot be taken out.

Dahei followed her, took two steps, then turned around, looked at the reckless cows who were scratching their heads and scratched their cheeks, and sneered: "You don't want to give you a chance, but you don't want to form a soul contract, you are going to die here forever Let's go!"

  After speaking, he moved and disappeared from the spot.

  Hei Di also disappeared immediately after.

   Qin Luoyi was the only one left on the spot. She took out the spar and squeezed it lightly.

   "Wait a minute, I am willing to form a soul contract with you!" Mang Niu suddenly became ruthless, rushed over, and said quickly.

  It's a pity that it said too late, Qin Luoyi had already crushed the spar, and the white figure disappeared from the spot.

   Mang Niu stomped his feet angrily, Dahei was right, if he missed this opportunity, he would probably die of old age here. It's just that Qin Luoyi has already left, and it's too late to say anything now.

Standing on the Shihuya, Dahei and Heidi jumped out from the space of the bracelet, Qin Luoyi turned around and took a look at Yaxia, which was so dark as a bottomless pit, she heard what Mang Niu said, so Dahei and Heidi naturally heard it. She was hesitating whether to go down again and bring Mang Niu up.

  Da Hei said: "Anyway, that cow can't run away, so why not let it dry, if you go down, you have to get the spar again, if someone who cares finds out, I'm afraid there will be suspicion."

Qin Luoyi thinks about it too, anyway, she is the mistress of the Piaomiao sect, after this alchemy competition, she will definitely come back, and she has to go to the secret place that the mistress said to advance, contract the mangniu, and There is no rush at this moment.

"Mangniu has a straightforward personality and a not bad nature. It's a good idea for you to contract it in the future." Hei Di also agreed with his face, but it thought differently. Qin Luoyi's cultivation base was too low, and it Although she swears by her inner demon, she doesn't want to be a full-time bodyguard. With Mang Niu by her side, it can be a lot easier.

  Back to Yuqing Peak, from a distance, I saw a slender figure standing outside the house, dressed in a black brocade robe with a silver border, looking noble and handsome under the silver moonlight.

  Qin Luoyi was startled.

  Duanmu Changqing... It's already midnight, what is he doing outside her room now, is he waiting for him? Then she curled her lips again. She even thought it was funny.

Duanmu Changqing put his hands behind his back, and the breeze at night blew up his skirt, making him appear more plump and handsome, and when he saw Qin Luoyi going up the mountain, a faint light flashed in his dark pupils, and he walked quickly come over.

   "Second senior brother, why are you here?" Qin Luoyi asked with a faint smile.

Duanmu Changqing looked her around quickly, and seeing that there was nothing wrong with her, he was relieved: "I heard that you will leave with Master Wu tomorrow?" His voice was low, with a faint Inexplicable charm.

   "Yes." Qin Luoyi gave him a strange look. This matter is no longer a secret in Piaomiaozong. Isn't he asking too much?

  Duanmu Changqing's eyes were burning: "I didn't expect you to be able to make alchemy...Yi'er, how many secrets do I not know about you?"

  His murmur fell into Qin Luoyi's ears, but it shocked her. She has a lot of secrets, but she doesn't want this senior brother with ulterior motives to know!

"How can there be any secrets... I know how to make alchemy, so it's not a secret, okay, Grand Master knows it." She twitched the corners of her lips, and smiled unnaturally, just wanting to get rid of the pain in his heart. Curious, she doesn't want Duanmu Changqing to be interested in her.

  If he finds out her secret, there is no guarantee that he will not threaten her with her secret, and she will be in a big loss by then.

Fortunately, Duanmu Changqing just expressed his feelings and didn't notice her strangeness. He looked at her with a smile and said, "I have to leave the sect for something. Two months later, I will come to Jinding Mountain to find you." Jinding Mountain is the place where alchemy competitions are held every time. There is a domain gate there, and the winner can enter the ice domain from there.

"OK."

Uncle Wu and Jian Yuyan will leave after the alchemy competition and will not return to the sect. Qin Luoyi thought that he was worried that he would be in danger on the way back, so he didn't think deeply about it. Go to the door.

  Standing at the door, before opening the door, Qin Luoyi felt a strange atmosphere in the room.

   Pursing her red lips, her expression became serious.

  Duanmu Changqing stretched out his hand to help her push the door open, and there was a young man standing in the courtyard with a disheveled expression and disheveled clothes.

   "Xiao Tian?"

   After seeing the people in the room clearly, Qin Luoyi looked very surprised. It turned out to be Xiao Tian who had stood up for Yu Qingyan, causing Jian Yuyan and Yuan Longhai to be sent off by Liu Qingcheng to Shihuya.

   "Why are you here?" Qin Luoyi walked up to him slowly, glanced at him, and asked with sharp eyes. She has no friendship with Xiao Tian, ​​it is unreasonable for him to come into his room without permission!

  Because of Jian Yuyan's relationship with Xiao Tian in Dongtianfudi, she didn't have a good impression of Xiao Tian either.

"Uncle Qin, I was wrong, please forgive me, I will never dare again." Xiao Tian's face turned pale, and he knelt at her feet with a bang, his whole body trembling slightly, and the corner of his eyes was startled. Fearfully watching every move of Duanmu Changqing next to him.

   "Are you wrong?" Qin Luoyi raised his eyebrows, a little confused. So, did he come here to apologize because Jian Yuyan and the others almost sent Shi Huya off?

  A sneer appeared on the corner of his lips.

  If this is the case, it is too late, right? And also looking for the wrong object!

"The note asking you to go to Yuzang Mountain was written by him." Duanmu Changqing's sharp-edged handsome face was written with unchanging indifference, staring at Xiao Tian coldly, and speaking to Qin Luoyi's voice, But it looks soft.

  Xiao Tian's body trembled, his head lowered even lower, and the color on his face was gone.

  Qin Luoyi's pupils shrank, he wrote the note? The person who framed him was actually Xiao Tian?

   "Why? You and I shouldn't have any enmity, right?" Qin Luoyi, who had come to realize it, had a cold voice with a hint of evil spirit.

  If it wasn't for Dahei...she might not be able to stand here now, Xiao Tian...he wants to kill himself!

   "I... I don't want to, Uncle Qin, I have no other choice." Xiao Tian suddenly raised his head, and defended in a low voice.

   Behind the scenes, there is someone who is the main messenger!

Qin Luoyi hooked his lips and smiled harmlessly: "I have no choice? Then tell me, who forced you, and what is your last resort to kill me?" The words were calm and clear, but Her eyes became more and more sharp.

  She wanted to know who had such a big hatred against her, who actually came up with such an idea to kill her, linking each other, trying to kill her invisible.

   "I..." Xiao Tian looked at Duanmu Changqing's cold and handsome face, and swallowed in horror. He did this matter extremely properly, but he never expected that Master Uncle Duanmu would finally find out the clues. Thinking of Master Uncle Duanmu's methods, he broke out in a cold sweat.

"Xiao Tian of Dongtian Paradise is a member of my clan. He is a direct branch, and I am a side branch, and a side branch that is very far away. Half a year ago, my father was suddenly taken away. No matter how hard we searched, we couldn't find him. After that, Xiao Tian found me and said that he knew the whereabouts of my father, as long as I do one thing for him, he would persuade his elder brother and several elders of Dongtian Paradise to rescue my father together." Xiao Tian Tian said while wiping cold sweat.

  Qin Luoyi's eyes flashed, and he said coldly: "What he asked you to do was to write a note to trick me out?"

   "Yes." Xiao Tian lowered his head.

   "You wrote the note, so who put it in my room for you?" Qin Luoyi continued.

  Xiao Tian's cultivation base is not high, she just left Rising Sun Peak and returned to Yuqing Peak, and found the note in the room, the timing is just right, it is very difficult to do it with Xiao Tian's cultivation base.

  Her cultivation base is much higher than Xiao Tian's. His speed should not be faster than her own.

   "No one helped me, I did all these things." Xiao Tian's eyes flashed with his head down, he suddenly raised his head, and said eagerly.

  Qin Luoyi snorted softly, and squinted at him coldly, obviously not believing it.

Xiao Tian gritted his teeth and continued: "That day, I happened to help me with my baby and sent something to Uncle Ji on Rising Sun Peak. I heard that Master Wu told Uncle Ji to let Uncle Ji and Uncle Jian go together. , go to the top of the mountain, I have something to tell them to do... After I came out, I passed by Uncle Jian's cave, and I just heard you talking inside, and then I decided to rush ahead of you and put the note in your room After putting it away, I went down the mountain quickly, and used a secret method to inform my cousin Xiao Tian... Yuzang Mountain was the place they had been looking forward to. They said that it was far away from the Misty Sect, and that there was a Lion and Tiger Cliff at the foot of the mountain. , is suitable for destroying corpses and eradicating traces."

   "Rush ahead of me? Do you think that, I will believe what you say?" Qin Luoyi locked his eyes tightly with a half-smile, with a mocking expression.

"Mr. Qin, what I said is the truth. I know that what I did was wrong, but... I am worried about my father. I have thought of many ways with many senior brothers, as well as ** and several senior uncles. But there is no way to find out who abducted my father, so I was confused for a while. After hearing what he said, he gave me a magic movement talisman, an invisibility talisman that can hide my breath... so I was able to catch up with my uncle. Ahead, we have arrived at Jade Green Peak."

  Shenxing Talisman and Invisibility Talisman explained why Xiao Tian rushed to Yuqing Peak ahead of him.

"What he said is true. Xiao Tian approached him because he is very good at imitating other people's handwriting. He wanted him to imitate the handwriting of a person you have frequent contacts with and trick you out." Duanmu Changqing finally Open your mouth.

He also started from this aspect, only to find out that the person who framed Qin Luoyi behind the scenes belonged to Xiao Tian, ​​and then sent someone to monitor Xiao Tian closely, and found that Xiao Tian had been in frequent contact with people from Dongtian Paradise during this period, and finally learned about the situation of the fallen lion. The two people under the tiger cliff, one is Xiao Tian, ​​who is known as a genius in the blessed land of the cave, and the other is his senior brother. Of course, he also knew about Qin Luoyi and their grievances.

"Your father, the place where he stayed for a few days was not anywhere else, but in a secret place in the Paradise of the Paradise. You should be able to guess who the person who kidnapped him is?" His cold and sharp eyes fell on Xiao Tian. , a mocking smile curled up on the corner of his lips.

   "What? Impossible!" Xiao Tian was shocked, his face full of disbelief: "My father told me that a devil in red clothes captured him, and he was rescued by the people from Paradise of Paradise!"

  The mocking smile on the corners of Duanmu Changqing's lips grew stronger.

Xiao Tian was stunned, then his body kneeling on the ground softened, and he closed his eyes tightly, with a pained and regretful expression. After a while, he opened his eyes, opened his mouth, wanted to say something, but finally gave up again. He lowered his head dejectedly.

  Qin Luoyi pursed his thin lips tightly, his eyes were sharp, Xiao Tian...in order to harm himself, he did everything he could, but luckily he was already dead.

  It's just... She glanced at Xiao Tian, ​​who was kneeling on the ground, with a thoughtful expression. The people from Dongtianfudi arrested his father, then let him go, and acted like they rescued him. Those who want to know about the grievances between her and the Xiao family, and even those who know that Xiao Tian sent someone to Piaomiaozong to plot against him, must It's already quite a lot, Xiao Tian hasn't returned to the Paradise of the Paradise for a long time, the movement of her coming up from the Shihu Cliff is not small, I am afraid that the people in the Paradise of the Paradise have already guessed that Xiao Tian and his senior brother are dead. People, you have to be extra careful.

   "It's a big taboo of the Piao Miao sect to plot against fellow sects. My mother said, you can deal with him as you like." Duanmu Changqing said.

  Xiao Tian's body trembled.

  Qin Luoyi stared at him for a moment, then chuckled and said, "I don't want to be lynched either, so that's all right, let him be handed over to the Law Hall."
