Chapter 25 Encounter by the Lake
"Qingxue's injury is too serious... We have to find a place to hide and heal her."
Cao Zhirou spoke anxiously.
They took Tan Qingxue and left quickly.
"Aohou——"
At this moment, the direction of the valley came with the huge roar of the black needle giant ape, shaking the mountains.
It came out again!
"Hurry, run!"
Jiang You's legs went weak and he spoke hurriedly.
...
The valley entrance.
Li An, who was waiting like a dead tree, immediately replaced himself with three new first-grade intermediate speeding talismans after the black needle giant ape rushed out of the valley and rushed in.
His super sense technique was running to the extreme, like a nimble monkey, lightly avoiding the feces on the ground, and instantly saw the stone cave in front.
In front of the stone cave, the bodies of two disciples leaned against the stone wall, and their heads were smashed directly.
Rushing into the cave, the scene was even more tragic, with broken limbs and long blood flowing...
The strong smell of blood and the fragrance of medicine mixed together.
Li An only glanced at the two dark light lotuses, but did not pick them. Instead, he quickly searched and found his storage bag on the body of the disciple named Qin Wei.
He grabbed the storage bag and checked it. There were only a pile of miscellaneous spiritual grass, parasitic spiritual vine fruits, some spiritual stones, and first-level low-grade talismans. The tree ganoderma was gone.
He was very calm and quickly checked the storage bags of others. Finally, he found the tree ganoderma in the storage bag on Qingyuan's body.
He was not greedy. After taking what belonged to him, he quickly pulled up a dark light lotus in the cave and put it into the storage bag.
Then he rushed out of the cave and left the valley.
The whole process took less than a quarter of an hour.
After leaving here, he went directly to the valley where he pretended to fall.
...
On a certain mountain peak, the black needle giant ape smashed the pill bottle to pieces.
Then, it returned to the valley, and when it found that a lotus of dim light was missing from the cave, it let out a thunderous roar!
…
The sunset fell.
Li An struggled to climb out of a dense vine on the cliff slope. His robe was dirty and torn, and one of his legs was broken.
Miserable, he crawled out of the bottom of the cliff on his hands.
"Help..."
"Help..."
His weak and miserable voice echoed in the forest.
It was not until the next morning that Li An, who was dying but had a firm will to survive, was discovered by other disciples from the sect who came to look for opportunities.
When these disciples saw Li An's bloody hands and the path he had climbed, they were all shocked!
It was too cruel!
…
Li An was sent back to the Futang that day.
His return instantly caused a storm.
After all, Li An went back with Tan Qingxue and others, but now he came back so miserably... Did something happen to Tan Qingxue and others?
Li An forced himself to tell Sun Lin about the situation.
He went to pick the miscellaneous spiritual grass, but he accidentally fell down. He didn't wait for Tan Qingxue and others to rescue him. After waking up, he had to struggle to climb out of the cliff...
This is consistent with the statements of the disciples who sent him back!
After Sun Lin asked, he didn't say anything, just let Li An rest.
On the second day after Li An came back, Tan Qingxue and the other two also returned!
It turned out that because she was seriously injured, Cao Zhirou and Jiang You had to find a safe place to heal her with elixirs first, and then bring her back.
Tan Qingxue's injury made Guo Xiao, who had been in seclusion, show up and invite masters from the Alchemy Hall to treat her.
Cao Zhirou and Jiang You were quite surprised when they heard about Li An, but they neither visited Li An nor sent anything.
As if it had nothing to do with Li An.
Li An was very happy about this.
…
In the blink of an eye, three days passed.
During these three days, Wang Dazhu and Zhao Xianchuan came once after hearing the news, especially Zhao Xianchuan, who brought a lot of healing medicines for Li An.
With the recovery of medicines and spirit stones, Li An was finally able to walk on the ground.
Today, the elders of the sect's law enforcement hall came to the Futang in person and summoned Li An to the Futang Hall.
In the Futang Hall, the elders of the law enforcement hall asked carefully about what happened in the Spirit Beast Mountain Range.
"Elder Shi, I suspect that the reason why I was attacked by the black needle giant ape was because someone had done something to me... The biggest suspect is Qingyuan!"
Tan Qingxue bit her lower lip lightly.
She was not stupid. She could naturally find out the doubts by reviewing all the processes in the past few days.
After hearing this, Elder Shi from the Law Enforcement Hall sighed, "Yes, they did do something."
"But they are all dead now!"
"They used you as bait to lure away the Black Needle Giant Ape and tried to steal the Dark Light Lotus, but they were all killed in the Black Needle Giant Ape's lair. The Black Needle Giant Ape has now broken through to the second level... It is listed as one of the highly dangerous spirit beasts in the Spirit Beast Mountain Range, and the inner sect is organizing a hunt!"
Hearing this, Tan Qingxue and others were stunned.
Already... dead?
"I will communicate with the Alchemy Hall about this matter and ask them to give you some compensation."
After saying this, Elder Shi turned and left.
Obviously, since the person is already dead, it is impossible to pursue any responsibility.
From then on, this matter can only be left unresolved.
Of course, no one suspected Li An, and no one even suspected that there would be a third person involved in this matter besides Tan Qingxue and Qingyuan.
After all, the Black Needle Giant Ape's breakthrough proved that the Dark Light Lotus had not been taken away, and Qingyuan and others' storage bags, etc., had not lost anything...
Everything was so natural.
"My fellow brothers and sisters, I'll go back first..."
Li An stood up and limped away.
"Li An."
Tan Qingxue suddenly called him, with a trace of guilt in her eyes, and said, "I'm sorry."
Li An forced a smile, "It's nothing, Senior Sister Qingxue... Let alone you, I didn't expect to come back alive."
After that, Li An left dejectedly.
Looking at his back, Tan Qingxue just sighed.
...
For the next two months, Li An didn't go anywhere and stayed at home to rest.
He couldn't even hand in all the talismans, so part of his monthly allowance was deducted.
This made Li An very painful, but there was no way. It was obviously wrong to be able to complete the task normally in a state of serious injury.
On this day of the third month, Li An could finally walk normally.
"In another three months, I will be able to complete the third level of Qi Refining!" He looked inward at the life seed in his Dantian, and the third leaf had completely unfolded. In the blink of an eye, he had been in Xuanyang Sect for almost six years. Six years to refine the third level of Qi is already very fast for those casual cultivators who lack resources outside, but it is only medium and low for the disciples of the sect. In fact, Li An's spiritual root is slightly better than the ordinary low-grade inspiration of the yellow level, and it belongs to the attributeless spiritual root, but the speed of cultivation is not as good as Zhao Xianchuan, Wang Dazhu, etc., mainly because the progress of the Yangming Zhuxian Jue is too slow. "The upper limit of the low-grade yellow spiritual root is generally the fifth or sixth level of Qi Refining. The further you go, the slower the cultivation speed... The fourth level of Qi Refining is a hurdle from the early stage of Qi Refining to the middle stage of Qi Refining." The spiritual root determines the upper limit! Fortunately, the Yangming Zhuxian Jue slowly changed his spiritual root. ...
He left the Futang and invited Wang Dazhu and Zhao Xianchuan out. This time, he bought a lot of fine spiritual wine and spiritual food, and set up a table in the pavilion next to the Moon Lake to entertain the two.
Since Li An became a registered disciple, the relationship between the three has deepened, and the rift between Li An and Zhao Xianchuan has long disappeared.
"Brother Li has survived a great disaster, and he will have good fortune in the future! Let's drink a cup!"
Zhao Xianchuan spoke, and the three raised their glasses.
"Brother An, I have another good news to tell you. I started to learn to refine weapons!"
Wang Dazhu spoke excitedly. His skin is getting darker and darker, but very shiny. His blood and qi are stronger than Zhao Xianchuan and Li An, and his cultivation has officially entered the fifth level of Qi Refining.
This person with the least scheming, on the contrary, is far ahead in the way of cultivation, leaving Li An and Zhao Xianchuan behind.
"Good news!"
Li An took out twenty flame talismans and said with a smile: "It's worth celebrating!"
"Brother An, I don't need so many talismans..."
"Not only for you, but also to honor Master Yu."
Wang Dazhu accepted it with a silly smile.
Zhao Xianchuan also gave a spiritual stone as a gift.
"Brother Zhao, is there any important news outside recently?" Li An took the initiative to ask. Among the three of them, Zhao Xianchuan had the most extensive news.
"Regarding the matter of the mid-grade spiritual mine, the three major sects are probably negotiating." Zhao Xianchuan said cautiously, "This is also the reason why it has been relatively peaceful in the past one or two years... The three major sects have been fighting for many years and are tired of fighting. Moreover, it is said that there are other forces eyeing them, so the three major forces may jointly develop it." "The forces of the demonic way are very rampant. Several notorious demonic way robbers have appeared. Even the three major markets of Xuanyang Sect have been disturbed..." Li An couldn't help but nod. Now he has a lot of things in his hands, such as the second-grade Youguang Lotus, the Fire Spirit Fruit hidden in the Spirit Planting Mountain, and the first-grade mid-level talisman... These things cannot be sold in Xuanyang Sect. Sooner or later, you have to go to the market outside, so ask in advance. He learned a lot from Zhao Xianchuan. "Mu Qingwan is going to formally become a Taoist couple with Chen Cheng."
Speaking of this, Zhao Xianchuan suddenly said with a complicated expression: "Next month, they will officially hold a ceremony."

Obviously, Mu Qingwan has always been a knot in Zhao Xianchuan's heart.
Li An was very indifferent to this.
"Hmm? Isn't that Mu Qingwan?"
Wang Dazhu suddenly pointed to the Moon Lake in front, and saw Mu Qingwan and a young man walking side by side.
The two talked and laughed. Mu Qingwan wore a moon-white long skirt, which set off her graceful figure. Her long hair was like a waterfall. Now she looked like a fairy.
And the young man was also as graceful as jade. Li An had seen this person. He should be Chen Cheng, the inner door relative who had embarrassed Zhao Xianchuan.
Mu Qingwan also noticed the three people in the pavilion, a hint of surprise flashed in her beautiful eyes, and she walked over immediately.
"Dazhu, Li An, Zhao Xianchuan, why are you here? Great, I was going to look for you."
Mu Qingwan smiled like a flower, obviously very happy, while Chen Cheng was quite arrogant.
