Jiang Jingmo and his companions' training began a few days later. When they left, only Ye Chenshu was there to see them off at the mountain gate. It was dawn at that moment.

"Don't look at them. They all have things to deal with. I'm the only one who can come today."

Ye Chenshu saw Nan Xun constantly looking behind her. How could she not know what he meant? For a moment she couldn't help but find it a little funny.

"Oh, okay, okay, I thought our feelings had faded." Nan Xun sighed and pretended to be helpless.

"Okay, stop joking. Let's get going. Don't wait until nightfall and find a place to stay. Then you'll come back wounded like last time."

Ye Chenshu waved to them gently and was about to turn around and walk towards the sect gate. But before she could do that, she suddenly thought of something and turned back to call Jiang Jingmo.

"Xiao Jingmo, remember not to force yourself to level up again during this training. If you damage your Dantian again, no one will be able to save you next time."

"I understand, Master. There won't be a next time!"

Jiang Jingmo hurriedly stepped forward and held Ye Chenshu's arm affectionately, knowing that she was worried about him.

"I'm glad to know. Well, let's go." Ye Chenshu snorted lightly, but the corners of her mouth rose.

"Yes, yes, Master, I am leaving now."

Jiang Jingmo patted her hands and turned to walk in the direction of Jiang Jiting and the others.

"Remember to come back early!"

Looking at the girl's back which had grown much taller than a year ago, Ye Chenshu finally called out from a distance.

The girl turned her back to her, waved, and finally disappeared in the distance.

Ye Chenshu stood in front of the mountain gate for a long time until the figures of the few people disappeared. She turned and walked towards the back mountain, not knowing why she felt a little disappointed.

Never mind. The child will grow up, and it would be good for him to go out and gain some experience. After all, the world is not in a good state now.

The faint sighs spread in the rising sunlight.

……

The five people followed the map Qin Qing gave them and walked along the river. Not to mention settling down before dark, they walked for several days without seeing a single person.

Finally, Ji Chuhe saw that An Yang was gradually running out of strength, so he took a few people and flew directly to the nearest town to rest.

They walked quite fast and flew for a distance on their swords. They were already far away from Jiuxiao Sect, so they were quite unfamiliar with the town. It was not until Jiang Jingmo asked the waiter in the lobby of the inn that he learned that this place was called Xunjiang City.

It's a very nice name.

After placing their luggage in the inn, there was no need to rush, so Jiang Jingmo took An Yang out for a walk. This town was located by the water and had a nice scenery. There were many vendors hawking their wares on the streets, and it looked quite lively.

An Yang was simple-minded and seldom saw such scenes. She was dazzled for a moment and stopped at every stall for a while. Jiang Jingmo accompanied her with a good temper and bought An Yang's favorite things from time to time.

The two of them walked around the street twice. An Yang looked at the full of things in her space bag and couldn't help but smile. When she was about to go back, Jiang Jingmo saw a familiar figure on the street.

Xu Fengzui and Mu Qianyuan were holding up several portraits for passers-by to identify. When the passer-by confirmed that he had not seen any of them, Xu Fengzui whispered "sorry for disturbing you" and asked the passer-by to leave.

At this moment, a hand rested on her shoulder.

Xu Fengzui looked back and happened to meet Jiang Jingmo's fox eyes that were curved with a smile.

"Long time no see, Fellow Daoist Xu."

A year passed, and Xu Fengzui was the same as before, but Mu Yuanqian was taller and more grown up, looking more pretty and charming.

"Oh? It's Brother Jiang."

When Xu Fengzui saw that it was Jiang Jingmo, he smiled at her. However, because she had too many scrolls in her hands, she didn't have time to free up her hands to salute.

"We are so familiar with each other, so there is no need to worry about so many formalities. Just call me by my name."

Jiang Jingmo saw her intention, stopped her from saluting, and added two more sentences.

"In that case, it's better to obey than to be respectful. Just call me Fengzui."

Xu Fengzui didn't bother to be polite with her and agreed immediately. It happened that they had been asking on the street for a long time and were a little tired at the moment, so they found a herbal tea shop and sat down.

After chatting for a while, Jiang Jingmo curiously asked Xu Fengzui about the scroll. The latter sighed and did not hide it.

"I think this is your first time here, Jing Mo. My Changqing Sect is near Xunjiang City. I often come here to shop and take good care of Xunjiang City. Whenever there is any problem in the city, they will come to our sect for help. Over the years, a hundred years have passed."

"The people of Xunjiang City have always lived and worked in peace and contentment. There have been no disasters on weekdays. Until the past three months, people in the city have frequently disappeared, and most of them are independent cultivators with spiritual roots."

"With so many people missing, the city lord came to us personally, hoping that our Changqing Sect could investigate the matter. Master agreed and sent Qi Shu with a team of outer disciples to investigate a few days ago."

"However, the strange thing about this matter is that Qi Shu has been leading the outer disciples down the mountain for half a month. Seven days ago, his contact with the sect was completely cut off, and even those outer disciples disappeared."

"The master then realized that the matter was not simple, and sent the two of us to look for them."

Jiang Jingmo took a sip of the herbal tea at hand, listened to Xu Fengzui's narration in silence, and couldn't help but frowned slightly.

"Are all the missing people people with spiritual roots?"

After Xu Fengzui finished speaking, Jiang Jingmo raised his own doubts.

Xu Fengzui nodded, with a serious look on his face.

Jiang Jingmo pondered in his heart, in his previous life, about a year later, many cultivators suddenly disappeared in the world of cultivation.

The reason why it caused such an uproar was that disciples from various sects who were training had mysteriously disappeared, including some direct disciples. For a time, the forces in the world of cultivation suffered heavy losses.

At that time, Bai Jinyue happened to go down the mountain for training, and lost contact after a while. Master Yuqian was very worried, so he sent Jiang Jingmo with a team of disciples to find her, and then they went to the territory of the Guyin clan.

After that, through investigations among the major sects in the cultivation world, they gradually discovered that the group of disciples were captured by a group of evil cultivation organizations, and the reason they captured these disciples was very simple, which was to dig out their spiritual roots.

However, according to this, the incident might have started from now on, but it is probably just the beginning now, so the missing people are just some independent cultivators, and Qi Shu from Changqing Sect was probably involved in this incident because he came to investigate.

Realizing that this matter was of great importance, Jiang Jingmo's face became increasingly heavy. After pondering for a moment, she decided to take Xu Fengzui and Mu Qianyuan back to the inn to discuss it with other people in the inn.

Without further ado, after telling Xu Fengzui their idea, they set off towards the inn where the Jiuxiao Sect was resting.
