The villain is above: the villain master's handbook

Even Lu Xiu noticed the abnormality of the old man.

During the journey, Lu Xiu observed the old man many times, and finally couldn't help telling his guess to Mu Lian.

"It is rumored that the descendant of the Qitian God Venerable is a wind-attribute monk. He has met our suzerain at the beginning of the fusion. But the suzerain has never told me what this descendant of Qitian looks like or how old he is."

"However, I think that this person is very likely to be a descendant of Qitian. Although he has never made a move, judging from his footwork, he should be a practitioner of the wind attribute. His cultivation base is unpredictable, and he is especially born outside. He should be a hermit expert , not long after leaving the mountain, they will be able to correspond with the descendants of Tianqi."

As for why he followed them, Lu Xiu already had a guess in his mind, but he couldn't say it out.

But even if he doesn't say it, I believe Mu Lian and Ye Hanzhou can understand the relationship.

Sure enough, upon hearing the words, Mu Lian immediately understood that her worries were not superfluous.

The descendants of Qitian Shenzun appeared in the secret realm of the Creation Sect, didn't they come for the fairy artifact, or what could it be for?

Only Ye Hanzhou has been away for too long, many things are not clear, and I don't know the pros and cons of it.

Mu Lian explained via sound transmission: "This old man claims to be the descendant of Qitian God Venerable. Three years ago, he had trouble with the three major sects. He wanted the three major sects to open their secret realms and enter them to find the Immortal Palace. It was just that the teacher was in retreat at the time. , have never seen this person."

Ye Hanzhou understood instantly, "So, he came after me?"

Mu Lian replied in a deep voice: "That's right, it seems that the teacher's worries are true, you must remember to be extra cautious recently, and you must not reveal the slightest."

Otherwise, it would be an absolute disaster.

Becoming a ghost clan has nothing to do with interests, and those whose interests are paramount will not care much.

But if the money is exposed, it's not that simple. The pious guys will try their best to steal the treasure secretly, so as not to lose face, but also get the fairy weapon they have dreamed of.

Thinking of the ghost race, Mu Lian felt at ease with Ye Hanzhou.

Compared with the past, Ye Hanzhou has nothing unusual, nor does it have any ghost aura or other signs.

After all, he is the male lead, and already has a male lead aura.

Even if you don't activate the golden finger, you can practice so fast.

Mu Lian felt that all this was very normal.

In the days that followed, after learning of the identity of the old man, the two of them were extremely cautious.

In fact, Ye Hanzhou has nothing to be afraid of, but his superficial cultivation is not yet at the stage of transformation, so it's best not to cause unnecessary trouble for Mu Lian.

Otherwise, dealing with the follow-up matters will be the real trouble.

The old man has been following Mu Lian and the others for about ten days, seeing that he really couldn't find any flaws, he was finally willing to leave.

Maybe it was leaving the secret realm, or maybe it was looking for other clues.

But even if he left, Mu Lian still didn't let up and told Ye Hanzhou not to act rashly.

As a result, the two of them stopped practicing for half a month, and Ye Hanzhou felt very resentful about it.

[Master, if you want to break through to the fusion stage as soon as possible, you need to practice with your disciples more. 】

[Don't slack off in cultivation. I haven't practiced for so long, or I'll resume cultivation tonight. 】

As the night was getting dark, Mu Lian, who was closing her eyes and pretending to sleep, suddenly had the idea of ​​wanting to practice.

He opened his eyes, looked at Ye Hanzhou who was sleeping next to his shoulder, and hesitated in his heart.

Now that the crisis has not been resolved, it is best not to do such things in the secret realm.

The safest place is the Wangchuan Sect, and it will not be too late to do this after returning to the Ice Palace.

Thinking of this, Mu Lian suppressed the thoughts in her heart and closed her eyes again.

The moment he closed his eyes, Ye Hanzhou's eyelashes trembled, and his lips pursed downward.

This is the first time, the heart gu doesn't work anymore.

But Mu Lian was thinking about his safety, and really didn't know whether to be happy or irritated.

After all, he is in a period of vigorous energy when he cultivates both food marrow and taste. If he doesn't do that for half a month, even if it's just dual cultivation of mind and soul, it will make his heart itch to panic when he is young.

But Mu Lian refused, even the Heart Gu didn't work, and he couldn't force it, it seemed that he could only endure it until he returned to the sect.

For the first time, he looked forward to going home with Mu Lian.

Following Mu Lian and his group's journey into the secret realm for more than half a month, they finally reached the deep boundary of the Creation Sect's secret realm.

Obviously, the number of people who have been here is much less than that of the outside.

Mu Lian informed in advance of the possibility of danger, and persuaded some monks with lower cultivation to retire.

The rest are monks at the Golden Core stage, and a small number of monks at the Nascent Soul stage.

With such a cultivation level, in the depths of the secret realm, with the protection of Mu Lian, Ye Hanzhou and others, it should still be possible to escape in case of danger.

As a result, Mu Lian's team was reduced from nearly a hundred people to only 30 people.

The distinction between the depths of the secret realm and the middle and outer areas is a black forest with formations, and it is easy to get lost in it.

Forests are usually green. This black forest is not very auspicious at first glance. It is a dangerous place, and it prevents intruders by mistake.

However, Mu Lian and the others were looking for it specially, so naturally they stepped into it without hesitation.

Mu Lian's study of formations is superficial, and he can't directly find the location of formations and exits.

Therefore, in order to save time, everyone had to disperse and look for the formation.

The reason why Mu Lian is so relieved is because this black forest is only for trapping people, preventing those who enter by mistake from entering the depths of the secret realm, and there is nothing harmful.

Mu Lian naturally stayed with Ye Hanzhou.In addition, he also brought a small oil bottle, Li Xiaohe, and a light bulb, Lu Xiu.

Only Situ Li was more normal and took the initiative to protect other disciples who were not high in cultivation.

Unlike Ye Hanzhou and Lu Xiu, who have such a high level of cultivation, they still follow Mu Lian to death, like a baby who has not been weaned.

Situ Li thought so, of course, he didn't dare to say it.

The Black Forest is famous for its maze, so groups of several people will avoid getting lost.

During the exploration process, Mu Lian also asked Li Xiaohe to follow him closely, not to leave his sight.

As for Ye Hanzhou and Lu Xiu, Mu Lian didn't worry too much, so he ignored them.

Ye Hanzhou thought he had been treated unfairly, but the target was his trusted and spoiled younger brother, so he couldn't get angry, so he could only gulp down his jealousy in secret.

When Mu Lian felt the sour smell, she was a little inexplicable and also very helpless.

Each team left in a different direction, and the four of Mu Lian finally headed north.

They agreed that the team that found the formation would crush the sound transmission stone, and Mu Lian would follow the spatial fluctuations to find it.

As long as the eye of the formation is broken, the maze in the black forest will lose its effect, and everyone can easily find a way out.

The four of Mu Lian kept walking north without changing direction, but invisibly, they still came back to the place where the mark was left at first.

Needless to say, the maze must be at work.

"Let's close our eyes and go. What we see may not be true. Only by following the direction of our heart can we not get lost in it."

People usually follow the reference object to identify the direction, but when the reference object also deceives you, you can only take extraordinary measures.

That is, don't look, and walk in the straight line you think. Although there will be deviations, you will not get lost.

Several people closed their eyes when they heard the words, and obediently followed what Mu Lian said.

Sure enough, when they walked for the same time as before, and then opened their eyes, they finally did not return to the starting point.

"It's really useful!"

Li Xiaohe cried out excitedly.

Then several people used the same method again and continued to move forward.

Every time they walk a stick of incense, they will open their eyes and leave a mark to make sure that there is no repetition.

Finally, they found a special place.

All the flowers, plants and trees in the Black Forest are very dark in color, but the one in front of them is very different.

I saw that this weed was a very bright and vibrant green color, and it should be the eye of the formation.

Mu Lian quickly took two steps forward, trying to touch the weed, but suddenly a strong wind blew in the forest, and there was a lot of fog for no reason.

It made it impossible to see anything clearly in the already dark forest with low visibility.

He thought of something, and suddenly looked back, but the three of Ye Hanzhou were nowhere to be seen.

"Little Crane! Han Zhou!"

"Are you there? If you hear it, reply as a teacher!" Mu Lian called out again without hearing a response.

"Where's Lu Xiu? Where are you, Lu Xiu?" There was no answer.

Some doubts arose in Mu Lian's heart, feeling that something was unusual.

However, with the maze and the fog, there was no way for him to go out and find someone.

The most urgent thing is to find a few people more easily only by breaking through the formation as soon as possible.

Thinking of this, Mu Lian sat down beside the weeds and broke through the formation quietly.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the Black Forest.

A black shadow flashed quickly in the mist.

When the fog rose, Ye Hanzhou had just reacted when he realized that the venue had been changed.

The people who were close to Chi Chi just now are now hundreds of miles apart in an instant.

Fortunately, between the mother Gu and the child Gu, the general position can be sensed.

Relying on that induction, Ye Hanzhou quickly approached in the thick fog.

Feeling that the two were getting closer and closer, Ye Hanzhou had no time to raise the corners of his lips when suddenly a sword light struck from the dark.

Ye Hanzhou gathered his energy to deal with it, but his face became more and more calm during the fight.

The person in the dark has a strong background, and his cultivation is even higher than him.

However, judging from the straightforwardness of people's moves, it should be prepared and aimed at him.

But who would it be?

The old man before?

No, the old man couldn't beat him.

In short, no matter who it is, there should be only one purpose.

That is to become suspicious and want to kill and seize the treasure.

-

Mu Lian's formation method is not good, and ordinary monks in the stage of transformation can crack the formation with a cup of tea, and Mu Lian pondered for a stick of incense in a daze.

After a stick of incense passed, the eyes of the array were cracked, and Mu Lian quickly opened up his consciousness to look for the few people who were separated.

Li Xiaohe was the first to see.

Li Xiaohe was not far away, just wandering around in that ball.

What I saw again was Lu Xiu, not very far away.

At this time, the formation eyes were broken, and he was calmly walking towards the exit.

Mu Lian didn't care about them, and his consciousness continued to rush away quickly.

It spread for a long distance, and it was not until the deep part of the secret realm and the junction of the Black Forest that Ye Hanzhou was finally found.
