"Would it be dangerous for Big Brother Dazhuang and Cheng Yu to stay here?"
Leng Muxue asked.
Nie Xinghe laughed weakly, and said: "The spirit beasts here are not as brutal as the ones in unforested forest and blood prison forest, and most of them are only 5000 years old.
Leng Muxue nodded slightly, still a little worried.
"Big bro Da Zhuang, I can understand, but why must you stay here with me?"
Cui Chengyu asked, unconvinced.
Xu Dazhuang wrapped his arm around Cui Chengyu's neck, his firm muscles making it hard for him to breathe. "You don't seem to like being together with me?"
"No, no, no. Big Brother Dazhuang, you misunderstood me. Can't I stay?"
Cui Chengyu's throat was pressed down, the sound of his words became very strange.
Only then did Xu Dazhuang nod his head in satisfaction and let go of his hands.
"But isn't that flat-topped mountain beast too good at sleeping? "He's actually stronger than me."
Cui Chengyu pressed his left palm against his brows, as though he was looking into the distance.
The mischievous banshee destroyed the entire inn, the broken oil lamp was burning the remains of the inn, the mischievous banshee's stone statue looked even more ghostly in the light of the fire, but the flat-topped mountain beast below did not move at all.
The pair of eyes made of giant rocks were still closed, as if even a landslide wouldn't be able to keep them open.
Nie Xinghe recovered some of his strength, and the paleness on his face gradually returned to normal. He bit down on the Gui Yuan Pill in his mouth and swallowed it.
On the surface, there was an orange colored melts slowly flowing. Everyone sat around the earth submergence, its heat drove away the chill in the night.
About four hours later, the sky had turned white. The morning was even colder than the night. A faint orange glow had already appeared out of nowhere, and the silver moon had already faded away.
Nie Xinghe had already recovered most of his strength, but the purple dragon was severely injured, so he was temporarily unable to summon it out.
Fortunately, they were only ten or so kilometers away from the Xianshen Mountain. Nie Xinghe's hand bones were fractured, and his speed could barely keep up.
Xianshen Mountain was as usual, and from the foot of the mountain, he could hear the sound of water splashing. On the endless stone steps, there was a disciple of the Immortal Picking Pavilion who was cleaning the yellow-green leaves. Nie Xinghe still remembered that this job was always done by Lin Fang.
The people who swept the ground did not pay any attention to Nie Xinghe and the others. At the end of the stone steps was the Immortal Picking Pavilion, which looked exactly the same as when Nie Xinghe had left, except a lot quieter.
According to the past, there should be many people cultivating in the front courtyard at this time. But currently, there were only a few fifteen to sixteen year old youths in the front courtyard who were looking at Nie Xinghe and the others with curious gazes.
"Excuse me, is Sect Leader Bai Xin in?"
Nie Xinghe asked.
One of the short haired man who was in high spirits said: "Sect Leader Bai Xin is currently reciting scriptures in the inner hall, may I ask why you are looking for our Sect Leader?"
Nie Xinghe knew that he could not be disturbed while Bai Xin was reciting scriptures, so he asked: "What about Lin Fang?"
After the few youngsters looked at each other, there was also that person from before who said, "Senior Brother Lin Fang brought the other senior brothers to hunt repellent beast."
"repellent beast?"
Nie Xinghe and Nian Bing looked at each other, then asked: "When did that happen?"
"Senior Brother Lin Fang has already set off for five days."
"Five days ago …"
Ling Mo thought for a while, then said suddenly: "It just so happens that when they attacked our village."
Nie Xinghe could roughly guess that it was the people from the Flos Clematis who had specially sent out the main force of the Immortal Picking Pavilion to make things convenient for them.
"Then where did they go?"
Nie Xinghe asked again.
"I heard it's the west side's Iron Forest."
Iron Forest was also known as the Forest of Death. The trees inside had no branches and leaves, but were covered with poisonous thorns.
Nearly half of the Iron Forest was made of sharp iron and stone, which was a terrifying place that not even spirit beasts dared to enter.
The Sin City was established underground in the Iron Forest. Because of the existence of the Iron Forest, even if someone managed to escape from the Sin City, they would not be able to escape.
"If the Iron Forest were to pass by here, it would take at least four to five days."
"No," the young man said softly.
Nie Xinghe shook his head, and said: "If it's the Imperial Sword Technique, it will only need a day. They have been gone for so long, yet there is no news?"
"Two days ago, Senior Brother Lin Fang's Pulse Bird returned. Inside, it said that it did not find any traces of repellent beast in the Iron Forest. In order to ensure success, they are still searching."
When Lin Fang first killed the repellent beast, he had almost lost two of his close Senior Brothers Nie Xinghe and Ge Yu. Thus, he hated the repellent beast to the bones and became even more cautious. If the repellent beast was not killed in time, it would become very troublesome when it grew up.
"When Sect Leader Bai Xin is reciting the sutras, we should not disturb him, since it should be about time, let's wait outside."
Nie Xinghe stayed in the Immortal Picking Pavilion for three years, and everything here was deeply branded into his memories.
"And you even purposely sent the people from the Immortal Picking Pavilion away. What is Flos Clematis trying to do?"
He couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he thought.
Nie Xinghe was the same as Nian Bing, he was also very concerned, and that inexplicable sense of unease was growing stronger and stronger. Nie Xinghe muttered to himself, "Only Sect Master Bai Xin could know what exactly is inside that mountain …"
As expected, after the time it takes to burn an incense stick, someone ran in from within, "Sect Leader Bai Xin said that he wanted to see you two, you can come in now."
Bai Xin's hair was white and grizzled, the wrinkles on his face were dense, the white hairs on his eyes were as thick as eyebrows, his pupils had already become light gray, and his eyes seemed very powerless.
"Oh, Xinghe, you've returned."
Bai Xin recognized Nie Xinghe with a single glance; he remembered every single disciple who left the Immortal Picking Pavilion very clearly.
Bai Xin indicated for the person who brought Nie Xinghe and the others in to go over, and whispered something into his ears, then that person ran out hurriedly. When he returned, he was holding several cushions in his hands.
After Nie Xinghe and the others expressed their gratitude, they all sat down.
"Your hand won't break again, will it?"
Bai Xin asked as he stretched out his emaciated finger and pointed at Nie Xinghe's right arm.
Nie Xinghe laughed awkwardly, and said: "Mn … Something unexpected happened, I will have to trouble Sect Leader Bai Xin later. "
"Why again?"
Tian Xiaonuo turned sideways and asked Leng Muxue softly.
Leng Muxue shook her head, ever since she met Nie Xinghe, this was the first time Nie Xinghe broke his hand bone.
Bai Xin's hearing was also different from ordinary people. He said calmly: "Once, Nie Xinghe fell from a very high place and broke his entire arm while he was cultivating. At that time, the situation was much more serious than it is now. Come to think of it, Xinghe, did you come back this time for something? "
