Holding the sword and holding the sister away

Seeing the changes in the ranking and record list under the arena, everyone was a little excited almost instantly, and everyone's faces were filled with disbelief.

"My God, I was really lucky to see the master who broke into the top ten rankings. This scene is so exciting. It seems that we will have another evil genius rise up in the Great Northern Territory!"

"Who said it wasn't? Moreover, Fu Yan and Bai Yueli are both disciples of the Water Feather School. The Water Feather School is about to rise. There are so many geniuses."

"Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow

"..."

Regarding the compliments coming from around, Fu Yan didn't feel too much ups and downs in her heart. Instead, when she saw her name and Bai Yueli's name next to each other, for some reason, her heart was filled with uncontrollable joy. Feelings.

It was as if at that moment, his strength was finally recognized.

Fu Yan's name appeared on the ranking record list, and she deserved it. Only she knew the hard work involved, and it was always worthwhile to practice day and night for two months.

Thinking of this, while everyone was still immersed in surprise, Fu Yan did not continue to stay in the martial arts arena, only to see that she quickly swallowed a few zhenqi pills, and then left the place without looking back. place.

On the ranking list behind him, her and Bai Yueli's names were still quietly engraved on the stone wall.

After leaving Wushi Arena, Fu Yan did not accidentally see Duan Sixin standing at the entrance. He seemed to be waiting for him specially, and then thought of his previous guess about him.

There was a slight pause in her footsteps. When Fu Yan raised her eyes to stare at the other party, the person in front also looked at her. After thinking about it, she still walked over as usual.

Duan Sixin clasped his arms around his chest, looked at Fu Yan who was coming over, and said with some integrity: "You should have seen it too, I always delay playing until the last match on purpose."

"The reason?" Fu Yan stopped in front of Duan Sixin and asked aloud.

Fu Yan could actually feel that when he was on the battlefield, this person didn't seem to have any particularly serious malice towards him.

Hearing this, Duan Sixin let out a long and lazy breath, and finally said truthfully: "There is no reason, it's just that someone came to me and asked me to kill you with a sword in the martial arts arena."

Fu Yan: "..."

Hearing the other party's frank words, Fu Yan didn't know what to say for a while, but what made her even more curious was who was trying to deal with her.

"However, after today's battle, I also chose to give up. With your current strength, if I want to win you, I have to use my best killer moves to be possible. As for abolishing you, I don't want to lose my life. "Duan Sixin didn't seem to be worried that Fu Yan would be angry, so he just said his thoughts slowly.

After saying this, he changed the subject again: "However, you don't have to ask me who my employer is. Although I can tell you my purpose, in our line of work, basic professional ethics must be followed."

Although these words sound a little funny, Duan Sixin does have his own principles.

"Thank you for telling me this." Fu Yan didn't seem to be angry with the person in front of him who wanted to destroy her, but instead thanked him.

After the words fell, Duan Sixin was a little at a loss.

He didn't seem to expect that Fu Yan would be so plain, as if he had heard something insignificant, he was already ready for another fight with him.

"You're welcome." Although he was a little surprised by Fu Yan's performance, Duan Sixin quickly came back to his senses, and he suddenly smiled and said: "You are indeed a rare genius in the Northern Territory, if you are just abolished like this, It's a pity."

Although Duan Sixin said this in a half-joking manner, it was also true.

Fu Yan could naturally see what the other party meant, and she didn't think too much about it, because at this moment she suddenly realized a problem.

On that day, Shui Liuqing said that he was going back to participate in the clan competition, but he was full of plans. It has been almost three months, but there is no news from the other party, which is obviously very wrong.

Because Shui Liuqing signed a master-servant contract with himself with his soul, Fu Yan didn't suspect that the other party had betrayed him and then ran away, so Shui Liuqing didn't show up for three months, so something was wrong.

And she was in Chaoyang City, but she was unknowingly being targeted by someone. Two months ago, she was an ordinary immortal cultivator in the middle stage of a small consecration, but the other party specially hired a master like Duan Sixin to deal with her. He was also ruthless and prepared to abolish his own cultivation.

So after listening to Duan Sixin's words, Fu Yan had to connect these two things.

Thinking about it carefully, she has been practicing in closed doors for two months, so she shouldn't offend anyone, it's obvious that the other party has been eyeing her a long time ago.

In other words, Shui Liuqing was also targeted.

Thinking of this, Fu Yan suddenly became enlightened, if it was really what she thought, then everything would naturally make sense.

Shui Liuqing, like herself, must have also encountered danger, so she couldn't come back in time to meet her.

On the side, Duan Sixin saw something wrong with Fu Yan's expression, thinking that the other party was belatedly angry and wanted to seek revenge on him, so he couldn't help but clenched his sword tightly: "What's wrong?"

At this time, Fu Yan didn't care about this person anymore, she waved her hand directly at Duan Sixin, said "it's okay", then quickly turned around and walked towards the gate of Chaoyang City.

Duan Sixin: "..." This person doesn't take himself seriously at all!

Looking at the back of Fu Yan leaving quickly, Duan Sixin immediately felt a little headache. This was the first time he failed to complete the task. What was even more frustrating was that not only did he not get paid, but he wasted months of time in vain. I lost my wife and lost my army!

"That's all, who made me not strong enough?" Duan Sixin retracted his gaze, and could only sigh helplessly.

Then he also turned and left Wushi Arena.

Because of the master-servant contract, Fu Yan can feel the existence of Shui Liuqing, in other words, she is still alive and well, if she has unfortunately lost her life, Fu Yan can also feel it.

Since Shui Liuqing was still safe, but he couldn't come to find Fu Yan, he must be trapped somewhere, so no matter what, Fu Yan still had to go there.

After all, Shui Liuqing is still useful to him.

After figuring this out, Fu Yan didn't have any hesitation, turned around and left Chaoyang City, and then flew towards the Shui family with his sword.

The Shui family is not that far from Chaoyang City, but only half a day's journey away, so Fu Yan soon arrived at Liujin Ancient City where the Shui family was located.

Because of Fu Yan's identity, it was naturally impossible for Fu Yan to ask the Shangshui family directly about Shui Liuqing's whereabouts, so after entering Liujin Ancient City, she went directly to the largest restaurant in the city.

After entering the restaurant, Fu Yan didn't show any abnormality, she sat down on the second floor by the window very quickly, and then ordered a few ordinary dishes.

It didn't take long for the dishes to come up.

"Master Immortal, all the dishes you want are ready. If you don't have any other orders, I will go to work first." Xiao Er said flatteringly after putting down the last dish.

Fu Yan poured a cup of tea on his own, then raised his eyes and looked in front of him, pretending to be very casual and asked: "I heard that the annual clan competition of the Shui family is over, is there any genius who will appear this year?" ?”

Regarding the clan competitions of these aristocratic families, people will come to ask about the strength of the children of the aristocratic families every year, so after hearing Fu Yan's words, Xiaoer has no doubts, and can't help but say: "The fairy master said that the clan competitions of the Shui family are over. It's been more than two months, and this year's No.1 is still Master Shui Hanfeng."

Fu Yan naturally didn't know anything about Shui Hanfeng, but she didn't ask any more questions, she just gave a simple and slightly expected "Oh".

Knowing that Fu Yan was more interested in the Shui family, the second child hurriedly started talking again: "Master Shui Hanfeng has broken through to the Great Consecration period, and he is the well-deserved No. 1 of the Shui family. It is estimated that they will not participate in the clan competition next year."

While listening quietly, Fu Yan ate vegetables casually, finally nodded in agreement, and then took out a low-grade spirit stone from her bosom and passed it.

"Thank you Immortal Master!" After getting a low-grade spirit stone, Xiao Er was immediately overwhelmed with excitement, hurriedly put away the spirit stone, and then briefly talked about the competition of the Shui family this year.

After listening for a long time, Fu Yan finally heard the name she wanted to hear.

"However, Ms. Shui Liuqing's performance this year is also good. It seems that she broke into the top five directly. In fact, everyone is a little surprised." Xiaoer continued to talk about the situation of the Shui family competition.

However, Fu Yan had already understood the news he wanted, so he waved his hands casually and said, "Go and do your work."

Seeing that Fu Yan had lost interest, Xiao Er hurriedly closed his mouth, then turned around, bowed his head and left quickly.

After he left, Fu Yan fell into deep thought. From Xiao Er's words, it can be seen that there was nothing abnormal in the Shui family, the clan comparison was held as usual, and Shui Liuqing also achieved good results.

That is, Shui Liuqing made a mistake on the way back to Chaoyang City.

Thinking of this, Fu Yan couldn't help but frowned slightly. If there was a problem on the way back, it would be difficult to deal with it now. After all, there are too many routes from Liujin Ancient City to Chaoyang City, and there is nothing to do. Searching.

Just when Fu Yan was thinking inwardly, she suddenly heard the sound of conversation at the table closest to her on the first floor below.

The speaker was an ordinary immortal cultivator at the early stage of consecration, wearing a gray robe, and whispered to the man in the blue robe next to him: "Oh, have you heard that there is something wrong with the Devil's Miasma Canyon recently? It's not peaceful."

"What's the matter, what happened again?" The man in the blue robe was obviously a little confused, but he still asked curiously.

"When I passed by the entrance of the Devil's Miasma Canyon a few days ago, I found that the miasma inside was getting thicker and thicker. There used to be a lot of green vegetation at the entrance, but now it's all dead and clean." The gray-clothed man said As he said that, he still didn't forget to take a big sip of wine, and then continued: "I guess, there must be something big happening in the canyon, maybe a baby was born."

Hearing this, the blue-robed man obviously didn't believe this set of rhetoric, so he immediately sneered, and said indifferently: "This magic miasma canyon has existed for nearly a thousand years, and any baby has been born long ago, now there are only some poisonous substances in it Other than that, there will be nothing."

"Hey, don't you believe it!" Hearing this, the man in gray couldn't help but put down the bowl of wine in his hand, raised his eyes and stared at the figure next to him, as if he wanted to make it clear: "I heard that before Someone saw a master of the late stage of consecration and a master of Dzogchen cultivation in the consecration stage suddenly appear in this Demon Miasma Canyon, they have been wandering in it for a long time, you said it is not treasure hunting, can you still play in it?"

When the words fell, the blue-robed man who didn't believe it just now was a little hesitant, and he continued after a long time: "Could it be that there is really a treasure born in this Devil's Miasma Canyon?"

"Sure!" The man in gray was very sure.

The blue-robed man paused slightly: "Then you said whether we want to go too..."

"Don't think about it." Seemingly knowing what the blue-robed man was thinking, the gray-clothed man interrupted mercilessly: "With our cultivation base, as long as we enter and get bitten by any poison, it's basically the end of the game." , don’t drag me if you want to die, I want to live a few more years!”

The man in the blue robe obviously looked disappointed and helpless: "Oh, you are right."

"..."

Soon, the two quickly chatted about other topics while eating food and wine, but at this time, Fu Yan upstairs couldn't help but pause slightly.

Fu Yan didn't know what the Devil's Miasma Canyon was, but from what the two said, she felt that the two wandering in it were likely to deal with Shui Liuqing, and Shui Liuqing hid in the canyon out of desperation. That's right.

Just as he was thinking, Xiaoer at the side walked over again at some point, he carefully added new tea for Fu Yan, and after finishing all this, he was ready to turn around and leave.

"Xiao Er, where is this Devil's Miasma Canyon?" Fu Yan raised her eyes again at this time, looked at Xiao Er and asked faintly.

Xiaoer seemed to be startled suddenly by Fu Yan's voice, and after a while, he quickly smiled and explained: "Oh, the immortal master said that the Devil's Miasma Canyon is just a few hundred miles south of our Liujin Ancient City. Speaking of the Devil's Miasma Canyon, I have to talk about a legend in our Northern Territory..."

According to legend, 1000 years ago, the Northern Territory was not as barren as it is now, and the aura between heaven and earth was also extraordinarily abundant. Because of this, there were several masters at the level of Earth Immortals in the Northern Territory at that time.

Then one day, a very terrifying monster suddenly appeared in the Northern Territory. Even those immortal cultivators at the level of earth immortals were no match for it. Immortal.

The real immortal fought the monster for several months, and finally lived up to expectations. He successfully cut off the monster's head, then threw the head into the fire, and burned it for three days and three nights. The monster finally lost its breath completely.

And during this battle, those real immortals once deliberately split a huge mountain with their swords, and then threw the monster's body into the mountain. Over time, a seemingly natural canyon was formed there.

And because the demonic aura of the monster's corpse was too fierce, it could not help attracting many large and small poisons in the world. Those terrible demonic auras have been surrounding the canyon for a long time, and they could not dissipate for a long time. Miasma, wherever miasma is located, not a single blade of grass will grow, and the toxicity is also very severe.

"So far, with the passage of time, the current Demon Miasma Canyon has been formed there." Xiaoer quickly explained to Fu Yan the origin of the Demon Miasma Canyon.

After finishing speaking, he looked at Fu Yan who was already in the late stage of Consecration, and he couldn't help persuading him kindly: "But the immortal master doesn't want them to talk nonsense, there is no possibility that there will be treasures born in this Demon Miasma Canyon."

Apparently, the little girl had heard the conversation of the two below clearly just now, and when Fu Yan suddenly became curious about the Demon Miasma Canyon, she thought that the other party wanted to go treasure hunting, so she kindly explained.

"Immortal master, think about it, if there is any treasure on the monster, it would have been taken away by the real immortal power long ago, and it has been almost 1000 years, even if there is a treasure, it must have been taken away by someone a long time ago." After searching for it, how could it be possible to stay until now.”

Fu Yan naturally understands this reason, she is curious about the Magic Miasma Canyon, and of course she doesn't really believe in the saying that there are any treasures born, she is just guessing whether Shui Liuqing really escaped into it.

"Okay, you can go to work." Fu Yan came back to her senses, waved her hands casually, and then continued to eat the dishes on her table.

Hearing this, Xiao Er couldn't help but chuckled a few times, and then raised his voice: "Okay, Master Immortal, please use it slowly."

With Xiao Er's figure gone, Fu Yan's ears were considered to have a quiet time, she did not continue to pay attention to the conversation in the restaurant, and still ate food by herself.

Although Shui Liuqing's location has been somewhat confirmed, since almost two months have passed and Fu Yan has not sensed the signal of her death, it means that she is still safe now.

Shui Liuqing was already clever, but Fu Yan wasn't too worried.

After eating and drinking enough, Fu Yan slowly left the Liujin Ancient City, and then flew directly to the Devil's Miasma Canyon in the direction the waiter said.

The location of the Devil's Miasma Canyon is not too far away. Fu Yan flew only for an hour or two before seeing a huge canyon appearing in front of him. Looking from a distance, he could see that the whole canyon was covered by a layer of black mist. Winding around, there is really no grass growing around.

It can be seen at a glance that this canyon is not an ordinary place.

When Fu Yan arrived at the entrance, it was already very late, and the sun had already set at some point in the sky, which made the Devil's Miasma Canyon even more desolate and terrifying.

Because what floats in the air is poisonous miasma, so if you want to enter safely, you need to temporarily seal your seven orifices and six senses with true energy. After making all preparations, Fu Yan walked away from the miasma. in the canyon.

This Demon Miasma Canyon is indeed a fierce place. Not long after Fu Yan left, she had already encountered several poisons and rushed towards her in an instant. When she reacted quickly, she directly raised her sword and fell, and those poisons were gone. It is divided into two, without any anger.

The entire canyon is very large, and Fu Yan didn't know how long he had gone deep before he finally came to the center of the entire canyon. Looking up slowly, apart from a thick cloud of miasma, he could vaguely see steep slopes on both sides. mountain wall.

At this time, Fu Yan was like a frog in a well, and when he raised his head, he could only see a line of moonlight in the distance. If ordinary people looked at this picture, they would probably have a feeling of suffocation.

However, for Fu Yan, there was nothing uncomfortable about it.

However, Fu Yan suddenly remembered the story told by Xiaoer Dian. If the origin of the magic miasma canyon is as it is said in the legend, then the position where Fu Yan stands now was originally the center of a mountain.

And that real immortal can cut out such a big canyon with a single sword at will. This kind of power is something Fu Yan never imagined. It's too far, too far.

After thinking about it for a long time, Fu Yan came back to her senses leisurely, she retracted her gaze again, and then continued to move forward.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Fu Yan finally heard a small sound in the quiet Magic Miasma Canyon, and it seemed to be the sound of a fight.

As she got closer, Fu Yan realized that there was indeed someone fighting in front of her. Because of the miasma surrounding her, she had no way to identify the breath of the two of them.

It's just that before she continued to approach, a sword blade quickly struck towards him. Fortunately, Fu Yan had always relaxed his vigilance, so he reacted quickly.

After dodging the attack from the sword blade, Fu Yan discovered that a master who was also in the late stage of consecration, who suddenly appeared from nowhere, came directly to kill him again.

He seemed to be deliberately preventing Fu Yan from moving forward.

However, at this time, Fu Yan naturally didn't have time to think too much, because the opponent's attack was almost fatal, and it seemed that he didn't want to leave any life for himself.

Faced with this kind of fierce attack, Fu Yan naturally wouldn't sit still, and she also quickly picked up her Linglong Broken Sword, and then killed that person.

The man seemed to be very powerful, he exhausted all his strength in every move, and Fu Yan didn't dare to be careless, and immediately used the three Wuhuan swords one after another, killing straight towards the opponent.

Soon, in such a green miasma, the two of them were inseparable, neither seemed to be at a disadvantage, and at the same time, neither of them got any advantage from the other.

Just when Fu Yan was hesitating whether to use the final killing move of the earth-level low-level sword to move the wind and clouds, the person on the opposite side seemed to have received some instructions suddenly, and quickly turned around and got into the miasma.

Almost in the blink of an eye, it had disappeared without a trace.

However, at this moment, Fu Yan could also notice that the fight in front seemed to have suddenly stopped. She couldn't help being slightly stunned, and she didn't put away the sword in her hand, but stared closely at the figure who stopped in front of her.

"Da da"

Footsteps came from the quiet surroundings, and Fu Yan saw the man walking towards her step by step. Before she could see the figure of the man clearly, a familiar sword quickly came into view.

Moon Shaking Sword?

When Fu Yan was showing a surprised expression, she saw Bai Yueli was holding onto her Moon Shaking Sword with one hand, walking out of the miasma step by step.

When the four eyes met, there was something incredible in the eyes of the two of them.

"..."

Fu Yan really didn't expect that he would meet Bai Yueli again in this magical canyon. Why did he say again? Thinking about it, she and Bai Yueli have met each other many times. This fate...is really... Some of them are wonderful.

Fu Yan and Bai Yueli hadn't seen each other for three months since they finished the task of escorting Luanjin Castle together last time. She remembered that Bai Yueli said that she planned to return to the sect directly after she had practiced in seclusion for two months. .

It was precisely because of this that Fu Yan would inevitably feel a little surprised when he suddenly saw Bai Yueli appearing in front of him.

After Bai Yueli saw Fu Yan's figure clearly, she couldn't help being stunned for a moment, but she soon noticed that the person in front of her seemed to have sealed her seven orifices and six senses.

Immediately, he could only say via voice transmission: "You didn't bring the Miasma Avoidance Orb?"

Hearing this, Fu Yan came back to her senses, but after hearing Bai Yueli's words, she had a puzzled look on her face, as if she was asking the person in front of her: What is the Miasma Avoidance Pearl?

Fu Yan really didn't know what miasma avoidance beads were, just when she was about to use sound transmission, Bai Yueli's voice sounded again in her mind.

"Open your mouth."

"Ah?" Fu Yan almost reflexively asked in doubt.

In the next second, she saw Bai Yueli reach out and stuff something into her mouth in an instant.

Fu Yan: "..."
