"Tianling?!" Yuan Mutian sized up the white-clothed man in front of him for a while, and with a warm smile on his lips, he said, "It really is a heaven-defying magic skill. I want it even more."

Tianling also smiled and said, "Unfortunately, I can't make your wish come true, Your Majesty."

"You don't want your apprentice's life?" Yuan Mutian narrowed his eyes.

Before Tian Ling could reply, Nian Hua said urgently: "Yuan Mutian, this martial art is very wicked, if you practice it too much, you will become neither human nor ghost, so stop being obsessed with it."

Yuan Mutian sneered, disdainful even to look at Nianhua, and only said to Tianling: "You can only choose one of the secret book and your apprentice's life."

"The cheat book is with me!" Nianhua shouted.Yuan Mutian finally set his eyes on him again.Holding two books in his hands, Nianhua gritted his teeth and said, "Yuan Mutian, take out the antidote, and we will hand over the book with one hand and the medicine with the other."

Yuan Mutian looked at Nianhua with a sullen expression for a moment.Nian Hua stuffed the cheat book back into his arms, but was full of nervousness and tensed up by the dark eyes that could not see any emotion.

"Ling Qing, the antidote." Yuan Mutian said.

The young guard who was originally standing behind him looked up, then responded respectfully, took out a bottle from his arms, and handed it to Yuan Mutian with both hands.

Nian Hua stared at the small white porcelain vase, his eyes flashed, and the strength he had stored in his body burst out suddenly.Everyone saw a phantom flash in front of them again.The guard named Ling Qing had been on guard since Nianhua's figure moved slightly, but at this moment, he only had time to block Yuan Mutian, but Nianhua snatched the bottle from his hand.

"Escort!" Ling Qing yelled loudly, and the crowd came to their senses, raising their weapons and swarming forward.

Nianhua raised his eyes and saw swords and swords in front of him and behind him, and Yuan Mutian's ruthless face flashed back and forth in front of his eyes.At this moment, he was still holding Cheng Zihan in his arms, and he couldn't use his inner strength freely. He didn't know how to use his inner strength to protect his body. In desperation, he could only use his own body to cover Cheng Zihan, and rushed out of the encirclement with his flexible figure. However, several openings were opened, and the blood gurgled down like water from a faucet.

"It hurts so much──" Two tears were forced out by the sharp and burning pain all over the body, especially the knife on the back, it was like cutting the spine, and the pain was excruciating.Nianhua bit her lip and wrinkled her face, looking at Yuan Mutian through tears.

Yuan Mutian twitched his thin lips.That face was still as handsome and charming as before, but the ruthlessness on that face made Nianhua dare not look at it anymore.Yuan Mutian raised his hand to stop his subordinate's attack, and stepped forward with a sneer.

Nianhua couldn't help taking two steps back, holding the small bottle tightly and said, "I've already got the antidote, don't try to threaten us again. I will destroy the cheat book, and no one will get it in the future."

Yuan Mutian smiled lightly and shook his head, mockingly said: "Nianhua, my young Nianhua. You are better at pleasing men on the bed. The fact that such a hero saves the beauty is not suitable for you."

"What do you mean?!" Nian Hua shouted loudly, annoyed.

"The antidote is fake, and the cheat book was taken away by others." Tian Ling said suddenly, shaking his head and sighing helplessly, and walked to Nian Hua's side.

When Nianhua heard this, he touched his bosom with his hand, and it was indeed empty. "You!" Nian Hua looked at Yuan Mutian, his eyes were red, and he gritted his teeth with hatred.

Yuan Mutian ignored him, but glanced at the three people in front of him with a half-smile.Tian Ling took a step forward and said, "Your Majesty, since you have obtained the secret book, can you please fulfill your promise and save the young disciple's life? Your Majesty is the Ninth Five-Year King, and he speaks well, so he will not break his promise to the grassroots."

Yuan Mutian snorted coldly and said, "Tianling, you don't need to provoke me. I won't take Cheng Zihan or you who lost your martial arts." He took out a pill from his sleeve and threw it Xiang Tianling.

Tianling reached out to catch it, cupped his fists and said, "Thank you."

"But this person──" Yuan Mutian suddenly looked at Nian Hua, his eyes piercing Nian Hua's eyes.I don't know if it's because of too much blood loss or because the gaze is too cold, but Nian Hua only feels that his body is getting colder and colder, as if slowly losing all body temperature.Nianhua forced himself to look into Shangyuan Mutian's eyes, but was stabbed in the heart by the ruthlessness and... the vicious killing intent in those inorganic, dark eyes.

"This person has inherited all your skills, I can't leave any trouble behind, he has to die." After Yuan Mutian said lightly, Nianhua saw all the guards' weapons pointing at him, and the killing intent rushed over in an instant .

Nianhua couldn't help shrinking her body.He didn't feel scared, but his body was getting colder and colder. "Do you think I will be your enemy? Ha... how is it possible, I never thought..." Nian Hua twitched the corners of his mouth, not knowing why he wanted to explain.

Tianling fed the medicine to Cheng Zihan, then looked at Yuan Mutian, and said, "He is the only descendant of my Lingxiao sect. You have already taken the secret manual from my sect, and I cannot let you touch him."

"You think you can save him?"

"You don't believe that I can let everyone be buried here in this valley?"

Yuan Mutian looked at Tianling with a cold face for a moment, then slowly raised his right hand, signaling his subordinates to put away their weapons, and then turned around and left with his men after a while.

Nianhua kept watching until Yuan Mutian's figure disappeared from his field of vision, and then he fell down without strength.The wound on his body was pulled by the movement, Nianhua gasped in pain and moaned miserably.

Tianling looked at Nianhua, who was as languid as an eggplant beaten by frost, shook his head, walked back to the cave, and said, "Bring Cheng Zihan in."

Nianhua wiped his eyes, stood up with force, and a white object rolled out from his feet.After a closer look, it turned out to be the bottle of fake antidote.Nianhua looked at it for a moment, then raised his foot and kicked hard, the bottle hit the stone wall, and his body was smashed to pieces.

Nianhua carried Cheng Zihan into the cave and carefully placed him on the stone bed.The wounds on his own body had scabbed under the healing of the body-protecting zhenqi at some point, preventing him from bleeding to death.

Seeing Cheng Zihan's ruddy complexion gradually returning, Nianhua breathed a sigh of relief, then walked to Tianling's side, and blamed himself: "Master, it's all my fault, and Yuan Mutian succeeded. You punish me." Said He knelt down in front of Tianling.

Tianling smiled lightly and said, "If you want to fight Yuan Mutian, you're much younger. If I can't even see this, it's not that I've lived such an old age for nothing."

Nianhua heard the words and said suspiciously: "Master, could it be..."

Tian Ling said, "Get up first." As he spoke, he walked to the secret room where he had obtained the cheat book earlier, and Nian Hua got up and followed behind.

It turned out that the real secret book was actually embedded in the small stone door that popped up. Nian Hua looked at the book that had been integrated with the stone door, and was stunned for a moment, "The one that Yuan Mutian took away is fake?"

"It's not fake. It's also the wonderful inner strength mentality that my Lingxiao Sect has accumulated for hundreds of years. I hope the emperor will not waste everything." Tianling sighed.

"In this case, why didn't you tell me earlier..." Nianhua touched the still stinging wound, complaining a bit.

"If you want to fool Yuan Mutian, of course you have to fool you first." Tian Ling said, and moved the Shimen back to its original position.He took Nianhua out of the secret room, and ordered Nianhua to move the bookshelf back to its original place, and then he touched some mechanism, only to hear a loud bang from behind the bookshelf.

"Let Master's lifelong painstaking effort sleep here forever, and I will not live up to Master's expectations." Tian Ling sighed.

Yuan Mutian who had just entered the maze outside the valley suddenly stopped in his tracks when he heard the muffled sound coming from behind him.Ling Qing stepped forward and asked doubtfully, "Your Majesty?"

Yuan Mutian frowned lightly and thought for a moment, then suddenly took out the secret book and flipped through it, and after reading two pages, he closed the book hard, with a gloomy expression on his face.Ling Qing retreated quietly, not daring to disturb Yuan Mutian at this moment.

After a while, Yuan Mutian laughed again, shook his head and sighed: "An old man, an old spirit, was tricked by this old fox..." He threw the cheat book back, Ling Qing hurriedly caught it, Looking at the back of Yuan Mutian striding forward, he looked at the two books in his hands with some embarrassment.

"I've rewarded you. What are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and follow." Yuan Mutian's voice came, Ling Qing was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly responded, put away the cheat book excitedly, and hurriedly followed .
