"Click."

The spoon suddenly broke in his hand, and Ji Qingzhou's eyes froze.

Liu Furuo also frowned. This is...

Bad omen?

"Shh."

Xie Ziye suddenly leaned over and carefully looked at the spoon in Ji Qingzhou's hand before saying, "I'm sorry, it seems I was careless when washing the dishes and left a crack."

Seeing that the two looked a little serious, he added, "It's not a bad sign."

Liu Furuo breathed a sigh of relief. They still had to go find the black dragon later. If it was really a warning from heaven, using the spoon to tell them that it was a bad omen, then they couldn't go this time.

"Ah."

Ji Qingzhou put the broken spoon back into the Tianqing Yulin bracelet and replaced it with a new one.

After breakfast, the three of them rode the sea tide into the Pearl Shell and returned to the place where they met. Led by Xie Ziye, they headed towards the underwater abyss.

According to Xie Ziye, when he was exploring the abyss, he accidentally met the black dragon. The black dragon was extremely ferocious and wanted to kill him as soon as they met.

A fierce battle broke out between the two sides on the spot. Xie Ziye was defeated by the black dragon and was seriously injured. He used a random teleportation talisman to escape from the abyss.

At that time, he was already on the verge of death and had no medicine to treat him, so he could only drift in the sea.

Unexpectedly, he met Ji Qingzhou and was rescued.

If he had worse luck, he would either die a slow death in the deep sea, or be discovered by other man-eating beasts and killed on the spot.

"I didn't know about the Flame Sea at that time. Now that I think about it, the Black Flood Dragon wanted to kill me as soon as we met. I'm afraid he thought I was an intruder and wanted to kill me to silence me and conceal the truth of the abyss."

Xie Ziye was identifying the surrounding scenery and reminding Ji Qingzhou to turn from time to time.

Ji Qingzhou asked, "Did you find anything unusual when you arrived at the abyss?"

Xie Ziye nodded: "The abyss is very cold, so cold that it's no wonder that the sea water is frozen."

But the water in the abyss did not freeze.

As a cultivator with ice spiritual roots, Xie Ziye was attracted by this strange phenomenon and thought he could find an opportunity to gain experience.

But he didn't expect that he almost died in a sneak attack by a black dragon.

"Very cold?"

Liu Furuo was puzzled. "According to the rumors, didn't the fire dragon turn into an eternal fire?"

According to her thinking, the sea of ​​flames burning with the eternal fire should be scorching hot, how could it be cold?

Xie Ziye shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either.

"there……"

Xie Ziye was about to remind Ji Qingzhou to turn right when his voice suddenly stopped.

Beside him, Ji Qingzhou had already taken action.

"Whoosh whoosh!"

A green light flashed across the sky, and the swaying seaweed on the seabed suddenly shot out like a sharp arrow, piercing a sea snake that seemed to be passing by.

Xie Ziye raised his hand and shot out a stream of ice-blue spiritual power, sucking the snake corpse into the sea tide and into the pearl shell.

The snake corpse that was frozen in ice twisted strangely, changing from a black and white water snake to a colorful poisonous snake.

"This is……"

Liu Furuo recognized at a glance that the colorful venomous snake was not a sea snake, but a kind of snake that lived on land.

"Spiritual Beast Gate."

Ji Qingzhou signaled Xie Ziye to throw away the snake corpse, "If I'm not mistaken, it should be Ji Qiuyu's pet snake."

Xie Ziye threw away the snake corpse and looked at Ji Qingzhou, "Is it about the Sanshui Secret Realm?"

Ji Qingzhou raised an eyebrow, "Maybe?"

She was vague.

Liu Furuo frowned, "The Sanshui Secret Realm was destroyed, and the Spirit Beast Sect suffered heavy losses. Among the sects that denounced Qing Zhou, the people from the Spirit Beast Sect were the loudest. They couldn't find Pei Luofeng, so they took out their anger on Qing Zhou!"

"Hasn't Wuliang Sect already punished Fellow Daoist Ji to appease the public anger?"

Xie Ziye was puzzled, "Why is Ji Qiuyu from the Spirit Beast Sect still chasing after us?"

Liu Furuo sneered, "I don't know where a bunch of people came from, saying that Wuliang Sect did not punish Qingzhou, and the Sect Leader even gave Qingzhou an Earth Grade Guyuan Fruit. The Spirit Beast Sect and Tianyin Sect were very dissatisfied with this and felt that they were perfunctorily treated. Although they could not find evidence openly, they were secretly looking for an opportunity to retaliate."

Ji Qingzhou suddenly said, "The headmaster did give me a Earth Grade Guyuan Fruit. It's normal if they are unhappy about it."

She flipped her hand and took out a jade box. The lid of the box opened automatically, and a fruity fragrance filled with spiritual energy wafted out. A yellow fruit the size of a baby's fist lay quietly in the jade box.

Liu Furuo was stunned for a moment, then angrily said: "You have taken such a big blame for Wuliang Sect, and your reputation has been ruined. What's wrong with giving you an Earth Grade Guyuan Fruit? Even if I give you ten Earth Grade Guyuan Fruits, that's what you deserve! Why are those people dissatisfied? If they had the guts, they would have been whipped 300 times, made to climb a thousand-meter sword path, and then imprisoned in the Chilling Mountain Prison! They are lucky to be alive!"

On the side, Xie Ziye frowned slightly when he heard the last few sentences.

He knew that Ji Qingzhou was punished, but he didn't know the details. He didn't expect that Wuliang Sect would be so ruthless.

Ji Qingzhou glanced at Liu Furuo silently and said, "As expected of you, you are the Young Master of Qianji Sect."

Except for some members of the Wuliang Sect, no one else knew about the punishment he had suffered.

I didn't expect that Qianjimen knew everything.

Liu Furuo coughed lightly and said, "I just found out by chance."

If they didn't know what happened to Ji Qingzhou, everyone in Qianji Sect would not recognize Ji Qingzhou as the scapegoat and unlucky guy of Wuliang Sect.

It’s a pity that many people don’t believe this truth.

The rumor that Ji Qingzhou was not severely punished and was even rewarded by the sect leader spread like wildfire under the instigation of some people with ulterior motives, and outsiders believed it without a doubt.

Even if Liu Furuo wanted to help Ji Qingzhou clarify the matter, it was too late.

Putting away the Pei Yuan fruit, Ji Qingzhou said, "If those people want to come find me, let them find me."

"Those ones?"

Liu Furuo sensed something was wrong, "Isn't Ji Qiuyu the only one chasing us now?"

"Someone from Tianyin Sect has also arrived."

Ji Qingzhou spoke calmly, as if he had expected it. "Although the whereabouts are hidden, the Tianyin Sect's sound-seeing technique can cause waves to vibrate under the sea. Although it is subtle, it can be detected by careful observation."

Liu Furuo: “???”

No, this...

After being reminded by Ji Qingzhou, she also tried hard to observe, but she didn't feel anything!

"If it was the Golden Core Stage, or even the Nascent Soul Stage, I would have difficulty detecting these traces."

Ji Qingzhou searched for some outstanding disciples in Tianyin Sect in his mind and quickly locked on the other party's identity, "Tianyin Sect's senior sister, Xiao Reyi, maybe it's her."

Ji Qiuyu and Xiao Reyi are both in the late stage of foundation building.

Before, when Ji Qingzhou had not yet made a breakthrough, it was a bit difficult for him to fight two people at the same time.

Now that she has reached the great perfection of foundation building, she will not lose to these two people.

What's more, she has Liu Furuo and Xie Ziye to help her.

If worst comes to worst, Qianji Sect secretly sent a Jindan-stage expert to protect Liu Furuo, who would definitely lend a hand if he encountered any danger.

"Fortunately, they are all monks of the same generation."

Liu Furuo thought the same as Ji Qingzhou. The two of them combined were not enough for Ji Qingzhou to defeat alone. "If some powerful deacons and elders come, it will be difficult to deal with."

Ji Qingzhou glanced at her and suddenly said, "Don't put up the flag."

Liu Furuo: “?”

What does it mean to raise a flag?
