He slapped himself, and Zhang Xiaofan stood still, unable to hold back a sigh, after a long time, his mood slowly calmed down, then shook his head and sighed at himself: "Zhang Xiaofan, you are really something, a small disciple of Qingyun Gate who doesnt even enter the ranks, yet dares to question the Taoist teachings passed down by the ancestors here. Truly overestimating oneself. Qingyun Gate has been passed down for over two thousand years, admired by the world, naturally it is correct, where do you have the right to doubt?"

  Thinking of this, his mood suddenly relaxed, although there was some self-consolation, but it was very effective, and he didnt think about the problem anymore, and lay down at ease.

  No sooner had he lain down than he suddenly heard a sharp, piercing sound cutting through the air on this originally quiet island where only the sounds of waves and sea breeze could be heard.

  Zhang Xiaofan immediately jumped up, looked up and saw that in the night sky, a white light streaked across like a summer meteor, shining brightly, and after it, there were several more lights, with colors of red, yellow, and white.

  Zhang Xiaofan took a few glances and knew that this was a battle of swordsmanship in the sky among cultivators, and it was clear that someone in front was escaping while several people behind were chasing.

  In this desolate and remote place, there was originally no one in sight. Now, it seems that someone is fighting in the sky. It must be a battle between righteous cultivators and demonic sects. Zhang Xiaofan had been searching for many days on the vast Eastern Sea, his heart growing increasingly anxious. Seeing this, he felt great joy. In any case, one of these two sides must be from the righteous path. Without hesitation, he pointed with his finger technique, and the fire-tipped stick soared into the air, rushing towards the sky.

  The firewood was carrying Zhang Xiaofan, and in the endless night, it made a "Woo..." sound as it rushed over. However, the people above seemed to have never thought that there were still people on this desolate little island below. The person running ahead thought this was an ambush by the opponent, while the pursuing soldiers subconsciously believed it was a trap set by their enemy. Suddenly, they all shouted and the white light in front turned around, while the red light, yellow light, and white light behind turned towards Zhang Xiaofan.

  Zhang Xiaofan was shocked, his heart bitter, and instantly fell into a desperate situation of being attacked from both front and back. But these magical treasures came too quickly, leaving him no time to explain. He forcibly stopped himself in mid-air, his whole body upside down, falling like a stone.

  ※※※

  The two factions of four people in the sky seem to be masters, reacting extremely quickly. In just a moment, they saw through the situation and their magical artifacts paused slightly in mid-air before following suit, like a sharp awl attached to bone, relentlessly pursuing. However, among the two factions, there were also a few who let out soft cries, with a hint of doubt, apparently realizing that the other side was just like themselves, wanting to take down this uninvited guest with deadly force.

  Only poor Zhang Xiaofan was innocent and became a scapegoat, suddenly being chased by these four treasures from behind. If he wasnt careful, he would be in danger. Hearing the wind sound getting closer and closer behind him, Zhang Xiaofan gritted his teeth, knowing that hiding wouldnt work anymore. He turned around in mid-air, seeing the four lights flashing like lightning and thunder, rushing towards him. He shouted loudly, and the Huo Yan Guns dark blue light burst out, blocking the attack in front of him.

  A loud "boom" echoed, and the calm sea surface transmitted it far away. Four rays of light shook back, but Zhang Xiaofan fell heavily from the sky with the fire poker, landing in the water with a "splash", sending water splashing high up.

  A huge ripple, spreading out in layers on the waters surface. The four people in the sky, whether fleeing or chasing, had all stopped and faced off against each other in mid-air for a moment. In their hearts, they all faintly felt that this last move was somewhat strange.

  After a while, a person slowly floated up to the surface of the water, lying on his back with his limbs splayed out in all directions. He seemed to have fainted. The four people in the sky descended at the same time, cautiously approaching the waters surface, straining their eyes under the starlight to get a clear look at the person in the water.

  "Xiao Fan!"

  Two cries of surprise came from both sides at the same time.

  ※※※

  The icy sea water soaked, this feeling made Zhang Xiaofan dazed and thought he was still in the ruthless sea under Ku Sang Mountains Dead Spirit Spring, still under the ground where the sky was not visible, but how could there be such bright stars in the sky?

  He shook his head, came to himself, and looked around, only to find himself half-reclining on the shore. In the distance, four people were standing on the sandy beach - a woman in green clothes on one side, and two men and a woman on the other, dressed in attire that was unmistakably from the Qingyun Sect.

  Zhang Xiaofan composed himself and looked at the one woman and two men. He saw that the two men were familiar, surprisingly they were his senior fellow disciples Song Daren and Du Bishu. The womans eyebrows and eyes were like a painting, wearing a red dress, her face was somehow familiar.

  In an instant, he only felt his blood boiling, his mind buzzing, and there were no other thoughts. He stared blankly at the spot and shouted loudly: "Sister!"

  The woman in red heard the voice and turned her head, smiling brightly. For a moment, this desolate island overseas, the bleak night scene, seemed to brighten up: "You little scoundrel, I knew you wouldnt die so easily!"

  What words can describe that fervor? Zhang Xiaofan felt that a thousand words were stuck in his heart, endless thoughts, and all sorts of bitterness. These days, the memories of being at deaths door all came flooding back, and as he gazed at the beautiful woman smiling sweetly in front of him, deep down, he didnt know how, but suddenly felt a pang, and tears began to flow uncontrollably.

  Sister Shifu, Sister Shifu, Sister Shifu! He had silently chanted her name countless times, and now that she suddenly appeared before his eyes, he could no longer see anyone else.

  Until then, a scolding voice rang out: "Zhang Xiaofan, you dead guy, dont even look at me with one eye?"

  Zhang Xiaofan was startled, and it wasnt just him. The three people on Tian Lingers side also seemed to have been startled. Zhang Xiaofan finally came back to his senses and turned his head to look, and this startle was not a small one.

  Only the moonlight was like water, and the stars filled the sky, shining coldly on the sandy beach of this isolated island overseas. A girl in a green dress stood there, her face slightly angry, her skin as white as snow, and her bright eyes gazing at Zhang Xiaofan with a hint of hatred. But she wasnt Bi Yao, so who was she?

  Zhang Xiaofan suddenly felt a little nervous in front of her, and even his tongue was not very smooth, stuttering: "Y-you, how did you end up here?"

  Bi Yao gazed at him with a mixture of anger and resentment, but didnt respond. Her eyes then shifted to Tian Lingers face on the other side, and indeed, Tian Linger had a clear and beautiful complexion, with a stunning appearance that made Bi Yaos heart burn with an inexplicable flame.

  Bi Yao that day in Changhe Citys Haiyun Building, late at night with the black-clothed woman walked out, outside the city met her father, then followed her father to Donghai Liubo Mountain, gathered a group of people, preparing to do something big on Liubo Mountain, while the Orthodox also came, both sides confronted each other on Liubo Mountain for several days.

  As the days passed, Bi Yao thought that Zhang Xiao Fan had already arrived. After going through life and death together in the Blood Drop Cave of the Dead Spirit Spring, plus their interactions along the way, Bi Yao had inexplicably developed some attachment to this ordinary Qing Yun disciple. On this day with a clear moon and gentle breeze, she suddenly couldnt bear it anymore and only thought about seeing Zhang Xiao Fan again. She secretly ran out, snuck into the Qing Yun residence, but didnt find Zhang Xiao Fan. Instead, she was discovered by Tian Ling Er and others, who chased her out.

  Actually, during this period of time, Zhang Xiaofan should have arrived at Liubo Mountain. However, no one expected that Zhang Xiaofan would get lost in the East Sea on his first trip out and waste a lot of time, so Bi Yao ended up arriving several days earlier than him.

  That night, Bi Yao unexpectedly ran into Zhang Xiao Fan on this small island. She was originally overjoyed and also felt a bit apologetic for accidentally hurting him earlier.

  It turned out that after Zhang Xiaofan woke up, he didnt know if he was injured or not, but what he saw first was that this stinky brats soul flew away as soon as he saw his master sister, and he became confused and disoriented, not even knowing who he was. Bi Yao immediately got angry and had no intention of apologizing, she couldnt wait to grab this brat and beat him up first!

  Zhang Xiaofan looked at Bi Yao, seeing her furious expression, then turned his head to look at his senior sisters side, seeing Tian Linger and the two senior brothers all wide-eyed, with puzzled expressions on their faces.

  He was stuck in the middle, wanting to explain to his senior brothers and sisters, but didnt know what to say. He turned his head towards Bi Yao, and upon seeing the demonic sect girls eyes that were like rippling water, he felt a surge of excitement, his chest tightened, and suddenly let out a "wa" sound, spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood.

  "Ah!" Tian Linger and Bi Yao exclaimed in unison.

  Zhang Xiaofan was actually not in any great danger, but just now he had been hit by the combined force of four people in mid-air. Although the True Law protected his body and the fire poker blocked most of the power, Song Darens cultivation was deeper than Zhang Xiaofans. Although they didnt use their full strength, this powerful force still sent him crashing down. Fortunately, below him was the sea surface, which reduced the impact, otherwise if it were solid ground, it would have been enough to injure Zhang Xiaofan.

  At this time, Zhang Xiaofans chest was already stuffy, and being stimulated by this embarrassing scene, his blood surged up, and he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. However, it was just stagnant blood, although dramatic, but no big deal.

  However, Tian Linger and others didnt know that she had been extremely close to this little brother since childhood, so under their concern, they immediately ran over. Unexpectedly, as soon as they moved, the demonic girl opposite them also looked anxious and ran over.

  Tian Linger, being a young lady, was meticulous in her thoughts and suddenly stopped. But Song Daren and Du Bishu thought that this demonic girl was taking advantage of the little brothers injury and was going to take advantage of his misfortune. With a loud shout, Song Darens "Ten Tigers" divine sword grew larger with the wind and chopped down towards Biyaos head.

  Bi Yao was just about to attack Zhang Xiao Fan, but her anger was interrupted by this big guy. She couldnt underestimate him as he came at her with such ferocity. Her body twisted and turned into a green light, managing to pass through the Ten Tigers Radiance in the nick of time. Just as she flew out one zhang, she suddenly saw a white light flashing before her, and a strange, square-shaped magical artifact flew towards her.

  Bixiao couldnt see clearly what it was for a moment, and didnt dare to harden her grip, so she had to stop moving. With her right hand waving in the wind, a small white flower appeared between her fingers, just like jade - it was her proud magic trick "Heartbreak Flower".

  The sorrowful flower rose into the air with the Qingyao spell, blocking that strange object. Qingyao took a closer look and couldnt help but feel both angry and amused. The six-sided cube in front of her had dots and numbers carved on it, and to her surprise, it was a die. She never thought that within the righteous path, there would be such an unorthodox treasure, truly a rare sight.

  Heartbroken, White Light forced Du Bis dice back one zhang, it seemed that Du Bi was no match for Bi Yao. However, although Du Bis cultivation was not as good as Song Da Ren, he was much more cunning. Seeing that his move wasnt enough, he didnt force it and instead threw out two more dice, flying up and down to disturb.

  Three dice flew swiftly, striking upwards and downwards, spinning around, taking care of both sides. Although they couldnt break through the range of the Heartbreak Flower, Bi Yao was also unable to rush over for a moment, only delaying for an instant. But behind her, Song Da Ren had already charged up again.

  Bi Yao had just exchanged blows with Song Da Ren and knew that this persons cultivation was deep. If they were to fight one on one, she might not necessarily win. Adding the sly guy from before and the "Ling Er Shifu" standing beside him, whom Zhang Xiao Fan had mentioned, she reckoned that things wouldnt go well for her tonight. She glanced at Zhang Xiao Fan from afar, muttering a curse in her heart: "Damn little brat!"

  Song Daren was about to catch up, but saw the demon girl who was fighting with Du Bishu suddenly flew back, and the flower in her hand suddenly transformed into thousands of strange flowers, covering the sky and sun for a moment. He was shocked and quickly concentrated his mind to defend himself, but it turned out that this was just Bi Yaos trick to distract him. Among the countless flowers, only Bi Yaos green figure was seen rushing up to the sky and galloping away.

  Song Daren was about to chase after him when he heard Du Bi say: "Big Brother Master, dont chase after him."

  Song Daren immediately came back to his senses, hastily put away the immortal sword, and ran towards Zhang Xiaofan with everyone else.

  ※※※

  The Donghai Liuboshan, the mountain on the island is majestic and steep, covering a vast area. If we talk about its size, it can actually be considered the first among the mountains of the East Sea Islands, but because this mountain is located in a remote location, few people have visited, so in terms of fame, it is far less than the other two famous islands of the East Sea - "Penglai Fairy Mountain" and "Yan Luo Island".

  However, at this moment, Liubo Mountain is the most bustling it has ever been since ancient times. For several days in a row, demonic cultivators have been searching for something in these mountains. Although the mountain range is vast, cultivators can travel quickly on their swords, often leading to unexpected encounters. The two sides are deeply sworn enemies and will usually attack each other with magic treasures as soon as they meet, exchanging blows and causing the sound of explosions to shake the sky. Fellow cultivators wearing the same robes hurry over to assist, forming a chaotic melee, with countless dazzling or sinister magic treasures flying back and forth in the air above Liubo Mountain.

  For several days in a row, both factions suffered more than ten casualties, and the small hills and hillocks on Liubo Mountain were also innocently razed to the ground countless times.

  Since that night when he met with Tian Linger and others, Zhang Xiaofan finally found the location of Liubo Mountain under their leadership, and also saw his master Tian Buyi and his wife Su Rou.

  It turned out that this time the Demon Sect rose, with a very strong momentum. Not only did some old demons who had been hiding for many years come out again, but countless new faces emerged, and their cultivation was surprisingly not low. It can be seen that in recent years, the Demon Sect has been secretly accumulating strength, and it is indeed a well-planned move.

  The enemys momentum is quite large, and the people on the right path also do not dare to slack off. Qingyun Palm Door Master Dao Xuan Zhenren, after discussing with Tianyin Temple and Fengxiang Valley, sent out the elite disciples of the four veins of Longfeng, Chaoyangfeng, Dazhufeng, and Xiaozhufeng from the seven veins under his door. With Longfengs Cangsung Dao person and Dazhufengs Tian Bu Yi Ju, assisted by several elders, bringing dozens of Qingyun disciples, together with Tianyin Temple and Fengxiang Valley, as well as a few other scattered righteous immortals, they all arrived at Liubo Mountain.

  Tian didnt expect to see Zhang Xiaofan, and his expression was stunned for a moment. Although there was some joy, he could still hold on, but Shifus wife, Su Rou, had no such scruples, with a smile all over her face, pulling Zhang Xiaofan aside and asking him non-stop questions.

  Zhang Xiaofan felt grateful in his heart, looking at Shifus wife almost tears were about to flow out again, he forced himself to hold back, roughly telling the story, but ultimately considering Biyaos identity, he concealed everything about Biyao and the Blood Drop Cave, only saying that they were trapped in the mountain belly for several days in a row, fortunately finding a secret passage to escape.

  Everyone listened and sighed, it was a narrow escape from death. This time, among the disciples of Dazhu Peak, there were Song Daren, He Dazhi, Du Bishu, and Tian Linger, four people who came to know that on that day in the Wanshou Ancient Cave, the eight people, including the Fahsiang and Fashan of the Tianning Temple, Li Xun of the Yanhong Valley, were all safe and sound. Qi Huan and Zeng Shushu also had a narrow escape without any harm.

  The most dangerous was 6 Xue Qi, who fell into the Dead Spirit Abyss with Zhang Xiao Fan. She suffered from the giant poison of the Red-eyed Pig Demon and was injured in a battle with the Dark Spirit Tree Demon. Later, she was caught off guard by the sudden arrival of the ancient demon beast, Black Water Xuan Snake, which caused a massive "tsunami" that knocked her unconscious and sent her tumbling down to the bottom of the Dead Spirit Abyss. However, thanks to the protective blue light emitted by Tian Jues divine sword, Qi Huan and others who ventured into the Dead Spirit Abyss to rescue people managed to find 6 Xue Qi, who was surrounded by countless dark spirits, and brought her back from the gates of hell once again.

  At that time, 6 Xue Qi had just come to her senses and said that Zhang Xiao Fan was still alive and also in the Dead Spirit Swamp. However, after searching for several days, they found no clues, and 6 Xue Qis poison had not been fully cleared, nor were her injuries healed. Yet, for some reason, she insisted on finding Zhang Xiao Fan. After a few more days, she really couldnt hold on any longer, and the others could only abandon their search despite her strong objections, taking 6 Xue Qi back to Qing Yun Mountain.

  This time Qingyunmen made a big move eastward, these were all old acquaintances of Zhang Xiaofans, except for Zeng Shushu, they all came.

  Tian Linger smiled and said, "If Xue Qi knew you were safe and sound, she would be overjoyed. You have no idea how anxious she was that day when she couldnt find you in the Dead Spirit Abyss!"

  Zhang Xiaofan was taken aback, and the image of Xue Qis face appeared in his mind. He recalled how she had saved him multiple times at the bottom of the Dead Spirit Abyss, and he couldnt help but feel a surge of gratitude. "Sixth Senior Sister took care of our sects friendship, I naturally..." He spoke halfway before suddenly remembering something and turned to Tian Linger: "Senior Sister, you werent there at that time, how did you know Sixth Senior Sister was anxious?"

  Tian Linger stuck out her tongue and made a face, laughing: "I heard it from Qi Huan Shixiong."

  Zhang Xiaofan was stunned, looking at Lingers smiling face, and suddenly the heart that had been boiling non-stop since they met again cooled down.

  ※※※

  The next day, the two factions of Zhengyi and Zhengyi had another dispute.

  In the midst of the fierce battle, Tianyin Temples Daoist priests saw trees and wolves being destroyed, and the wild boars, rabbits, dogs, and snakes in the forest were all killed. They couldnt help but sigh, and began to recite the "Cihai Scripture" for the dead creatures. After finishing the scripture, they shouted "Amitabha Buddha!" and with a wave of their hand, a magical jade stone was thrown out, shattering the sky and earth. The demonic cultivators dodged to the side, but another small mountain peak was destroyed, and more lives were lost. They had no choice but to recite the scripture again.

  "Bald-headed thief, come and fight to the death if you dare! Stop muttering curses all day, Im tired of being annoyed to death by you guys!"

  "Amitabha Buddha, you wicked donor of stray dogs, your sins are deep and heavy, if you dont repent now, Im afraid after death youll fall into the Avici Hell!"

  "Ptooey! You bald donkey, are you still considered a monk? How dare you curse me directly!"

  “……”

  Zhang Xiaofan heard the voice from behind and found it very familiar. He looked closely and found that it was indeed the strange-looking wild dog Taoist who had been in the empty mulberry mountain cave of ten thousand bats. At this moment, he was standing in front of the Demon Cult camp, with a furious face and saliva flying everywhere, scolding a Tianyin Temple monk from the Orthodox Sect. Meanwhile, Lao Da, Lin Feng, Liu Guang and that beautiful young woman were also standing among the Demon Cult members.

  Just as Zhang Xiaofan was thinking that these guys had also come here, he suddenly heard someone behind him reciting a Buddhist mantra and saying: "Amitabha Buddha, hello Junior Brother Zhang!"

  Zhang Xiaofan turned his head to look, but it was a familiar face, Fa Xiang and Fa Shan of the Tianyin Temple. Among the eight people in the Wanxue Ancient Cave before, these two monks from the Tianyin Temple had always been on good terms with him, especially Fa Xiang, who looked at him with different eyes. Moreover, from Tian Lingers mouth, he also knew that although he did not care about Xue Qis opposition and made the decision to leave the Dead Spirit Spring, it was said that his expression was so painful that he could not pretend to be calm.

  Zhang Xiaofan listened and was always grateful. At this time, he saw Fa Xiang and Fa Shan, and hurriedly saluted: "Two masters are good."

  Fa Xiang took a closer look at him, let out a sigh of relief, and smiled, saying: "As the ancients said, Good fortune comes from heaven, now I believe it. Zhang Shidi has survived great danger, what joy, what congratulations, surely there will be good fortune to come."

  Tall and majestic Fa Shan stood behind his shorter senior brother, also saying in a deep voice: "Brother Zhang is blessed with good fortune!"

  Zhang Xiaofan felt grateful and said, "Thank you both for your concern."

  Fashang smiled and nodded, then looked around the scene. The wild dog Taoist had already started a magic duel with the Tianyin Temple monk, so he stretched out his hand and gently patted his shoulder, saying: "Well talk again when we have time."

  "Yes."

  Fa Xiang took two steps out, then suddenly turned back and smiled at Zhang Xiao Fan: "Zhang Shidi, if you have time, go take a look at your sects 6th Snow Chi 6th Master. She is worried about you!" As he spoke, his face had a hint of mystery, and he exchanged a smile with Fa Shan before leaving together.

  Zhang Xiaofan was stunned for a moment, and couldnt help but glance over at the Qingyunmens Xiao Zhufeng. This time, Xiao Zhufeng had not come with Shuiyue Dashi, and the female disciples were following Da Shi Jie Wen Min, listening to the commands of Cang Song Dao Ren and Tian Buyi. Xue Qi was standing right among them at this moment.

  It had been many months since they last met, and Snowy appeared to have lost some weight, it was unclear whether it was due to those injuries or not, but from here, Zhang Xiaofan still felt a sense of astonishment, he just thought that this woman was born with stunning beauty, an otherworldly face, even if she had lost weight, it seemed as if she was lightly revealing a drop of cold dew in the midst of blooming lilies, desolate and with a hint of loneliness, adding to her elegance.

  The female disciples under Xiaozhu Peak were mostly beautiful women, attracting countless gazes from the surroundings. Except for the old monks of Tianyin Temple who didnt even glance sideways, the male disciples of Qingyun Gate and Fengxiang Valley couldnt help but sneak glances here. Xueqi was the one who attracted the most attention. However, at this moment, she had regained her original cold arrogance. When her gaze swept past Zhang Xiaofan unintentionally, it only lingered for a brief moment before moving away, without any other expression.

  Zhang Xiaofan felt a little lost in his heart, but after a while, he was even more excited. Originally, he had some fear of this cold and beautiful woman, now that she didnt pay attention to him, he was relieved. In an instant, his spirit was attracted by Tian Lingers "heh heh" laughter and couldnt turn back anymore.
