The little girl might be in danger

Therefore, Qiu Qinglu felt that this mortal would probably die in this mountain range.

But that's not entirely true.

Because in this area, there seems to be a particularly mysterious and powerful person, but it is hard to say whether that person will help this mortal when he sees him in trouble.

He can even shoot holy arrows without taking them back. His wealth is unimaginable.

"What's the heroine's name?"

These words made Qiu Qinglu stunned for a moment.

This man doesn't seem to be afraid. He was clearly nervous just now, as if he was really worried that the monster would threaten his life. But why is he so relaxed now, as if he has confidence?

He even asked her name, as if knowing her name would help him save his life in these ancient crocodile mountains.

"Hello!"

Gu Heng looked at her dull expression and raised his voice slightly, "Lady, since we can still meet, it is fate. Since it is fate, I think it is appropriate for us to know each other's names. What do you think?"

What he said seems to be correct?

Never mind, just giving my name.

"Qiu Qinglu."

If the other party is also a cultivator, then she would naturally also report the position of "Wanjian Xianzong Law Enforcement Hall Priest".

But since this is a mortal, there is no need to do so. He probably doesn't really understand the importance of her position. At most, he just knows the name of the Ten Thousand Swords Immortal Sect.

Anyway, it's just like he said, it's fate, but that's all the fate.

It was impossible for Qiu Qinglu to stay here and watch over his safety. She needed to return to the team as soon as possible and find the Wanjian Xianzong team. Otherwise, it would be dangerous for her to wander around like this.

In front of the Stone Vein Demon King, the sixth level of the Fusion Stage was just a small shrimp. Even several Mahayana stage cultivators who besieged it were defeated. Qiu Qinglu didn't want to become a meal for the monster just because she was alone.

"What a nice name, lady. My name is Gu Heng, and I just run a clinic."

Gu Heng smiled.

"...Wait, isn't there a little girl next to you?"

Qiu Qinglu nodded silently, and then she remembered, wasn't there a timid-looking girl in the Nascent Soul stage next to him just now?

"Oh, she went on. The girl was very impatient and couldn't wait for me."

Gu Heng pointed to the spire of the ancient secret palace.

"What—oh, never mind."

Qiu Qinglu's eyes widened even more.

A solitary Nascent Soul cultivator, accompanied by a mortal, actually dared to go deep into the Ancient Crocodile Mountains. This alone was enough to make people jaw-dropping, but what was even more amazing was that her target was actually the ancient secret palace?

Should we say that the young are to be feared? Because Qiu Qinglu felt that this behavior was tantamount to seeking death. That was a secret place left by an immortal. How many heavyweight "traps" were there that had not been triggered? No one knew.

First, everyone's spiritual thoughts were blocked, resulting in no one being able to notice the monster's attack. Then, in the ancient crocodile mountains that had been searched clean and free of any monsters, a monster king suddenly appeared.

Qiu Qinglu is not the kind of person who makes random guesses.

But she felt that the spiritual blockage and the monster attacks were all caused by the ancient secret palace!

Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence?

"You really are not afraid of death..."

Qiu Qinglu held her forehead with her hand.

The danger level of the ancient secret palace is unimaginable now. If a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage can enter it, it is considered lucky. If there are any traps inside, there is absolutely no way for a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage to escape.

After all, this is a secret place for immortals.

Even those at the Supreme Saint stage have to be careful with the methods of the immortals, otherwise they will pay a heavy price if they are not careful!"Ms. Qiu, is this mountain really dangerous?"

Gu Heng rolled his throat and asked tentatively.

Something is wrong.

This female monk seemed to be worried about the safety of his and Qin Yiyao's lives. Could it be that there was murderous intent everywhere here?

"Of course, there's no need for me to lie to you."

Qiu Qinglu rolled her eyes.

Why is he still so skeptical? Does he have to see the Stone Vein Demon King go on a killing spree with his own eyes? If that were the case, it would be too late!

"How could this happen? Is everything she said wrong?"

Gu Heng had asked everything clearly before coming here, and Sect Master Jiang had clearly stated that this place was "not dangerous" for mortals.

Or rather...

Gu Heng's heart skipped a beat.

Finished.

Jiang Lingyun probably thought that in such a dangerous place, cultivators would not allow mortals to get close to it. Since they didn't get close, didn't that mean there was no danger?

Just now, when Ms. Qiu saw him and Qin Yiyao, she also warned them to leave quickly.

But Gu Heng didn't listen.

Maybe other mortals who entered the mountains were persuaded to leave. After all, there was no reason for the monks to deceive mortals, right? If the monks told you to leave, you should leave quickly. If you stay, you might lose your life.

But Gu Heng didn't, because he felt there was no danger here... Because Gu Heng was confident. Although he was a mortal, he had a "temporary experience voucher" given by the system, which could make him become the strongest in the world within a quarter of an hour.

Therefore, Gu Heng didn't feel too scared in his heart. If he really encountered a monster, he would use the experience coupon and directly reach the maximum tenth level of the Saint, and kill whatever came!

But he insisted on asking Qin Yiyao to act separately from him!

That girl might be able to deal with wild beasts, but what if she encounters a demon beast? !

I'm not around!

"Oh no!"

Gu Heng ran towards the Taikoo Secret Palace without a second thought. His sudden anxiety also confused Qiu Qinglu, who hurriedly pulled him.

"Where are you going? I told you there might be monsters everywhere in the mountains. If you keep running around, no one will be able to save you!"

"No, that girl is in danger!"

Gu Heng pushed her away.

This immediately made Qiu Qinglu very angry. I just told you two to get out of the mountain as soon as possible, but you didn't listen. Now you are anxious, but it's too late!

If the girl had not been caught by a monster on the way, she might have been in great danger if she had entered the ancient secret palace. What could a mere mortal like him do there?

But Qiu Qinglu probably understood Gu Heng's attitude.

That girl should be the daughter of a noble family in the Riyan Dynasty, and Gu Heng should be a servant. His master pushed him away and ran inside. Now that he knows there are many dangers in the mountains, how can he not be anxious?

Qiu Qinglu held him back again.

"If you stay here honestly, you still have a chance to survive!"

Gu Heng was stunned: "What do you mean?"

"On my way here just now, I saw a demon spirit being killed. That beast was not far away from you at all. Logically, it should have smelled your scent long ago, but you are still alive because it was killed by a powerful person!"

Qiu Qinglu said seriously: "You stay nearby, at least you are still within the protection of that powerful man."

"If you leave, you will really be eaten, understand?"
