In the cave, Feijian and Jingxu walked side by side quickly. Feijian asked, "I have always had a question that I haven't had time to ask. Don't you think the masked man who jumped off the cliff earlier looks like Yunmeng?"
Jingxu said: "How is it possible? I checked it myself and was always by his side. Didn't you see it?"
Fei Jian said: "The problem is that his body was stolen by Li Zhong. What kind of person is Li Zhong? His intelligence alone is enough to make people fear him, not to mention his unfathomable cultivation. He is very predictable and ruthless. I have never seen such a frightening young man. I suspect that he stole Yunmeng's body and is likely to revive her. If so, your plan will fail, and..."
Jingxu said: "Brother, you worry too much. Once we unlock the seal and obtain the Dragon Fish River Map, what can he do even if he is still alive?"
"There's really nothing we can do. At most we can clear the entrance to Huangshan!" An old voice came from the front.
Jingxu was so frightened by the sound that he almost fell to the ground. He looked carefully and saw a figure appear in front of him. It was the skinny masked man. What they were worried about happened.
Jingxu asked in shock: "You..., aren't you dead?" He heard it was Yunmeng's voice, and his voice began to sound uneasy.
Yunmeng took off the mask and said, "I am indeed dead. If I hadn't been brought back to life by you, I would never have heard you say such a thing. It seems that Linyazi has entrusted Huangshan to you, but you ignored the ancestral ban and brought outsiders here."
Jingxu quickly stepped forward and knelt down, saying, "Brother, after I heard this secret, I was confused for a moment and became greedy. I know I was wrong. Please forgive me for our many years of practicing together!"
"That's not all! You actually discovered that Shisui was still alive, hiding in the dark, preparing to murder me. Not only did you not tell anyone about this, but you also gave him hints and conveniences, letting him hide in a secret room, leaving me defenseless. You also ordered Danxian to monitor me at all times, and when something happened, you were the first to be notified to rush over and wake me up so that you could get my last words."
Jingxu shook his head and said, "That's not the case. No matter how brave you are, you would never dare to do that. I did send Danxian because Huangshan has been uneasy these days. Didn't my senior brother ask me to be more careful? I'm worried about you, too!"
Yun Meng said: "You still want to quibble now, then let me ask you, when you woke me up, what was the first thing you asked?"
Jingxu tried hard to recall: "The first question that Junior Brother asked was... Junior Brother, I don't remember!"
"The first thing you asked was, 'Brother, if you have anything else to say, please tell me!' If you want to avenge me, the first thing you should ask is who the murderer is. This means you know who the murderer is, and you only want to hear my last words."
Jingxu shook his head and cried, "Brother, you misunderstood me. I wanted to ask, but I was afraid it would be too late."
Yun Meng snorted coldly, "If I hadn't given Lin Ya the future in advance, I would have been able to tell you this secret. Seeing that I kept silent, you kept asking questions, and you almost pulled out my tongue and tortured me!"
Jingxu said: "Junior brother has absolutely no such intention. Junior brother is just trying his best to input true energy into you."
Yun Meng didn't listen to Jingxu's explanation and continued, "Your wishful thinking failed, so you came up with another plan to put the blame on you, misleading everyone to this forbidden area. Senior Brother Lin Ya had no choice but to entrust Huangshan to you and told you this thousand-year-old secret. Am I right or wrong?"
Jingxu said: "That's not the case. I don't know this secret at all, and I don't have the qualifications to become the head of Huangshan."
Yun Meng said: "You are indeed not qualified. Now I will give you two choices. If you regret it, take Fei Jian back and reflect on your mistakes from now on. The other choice is to kill me if you still insist on doing it."
Fei Jian had been paying attention to Yun Meng's breath while the two were talking. Yun Meng had been resurrected after death, so he still had to consider how much his cultivation had recovered. However, he did not get any results. Yun Meng's breath was very stable. He was a cautious person and would never act rashly. He ignored the hint given to him by Jingxu with his fingers and attacked Yun Meng. He smiled at Yun Meng and said, "Master Yun doesn't know that Lie Feng broke down despite our dissuasion. Jingxu was also worried about Brother Lin Ya and the secret, so he asked me to come down to help. It's not just us. Many people have come down now."
Yunmeng knew Feijian's intentions but couldn't say anything, because Feijian was very well hidden, and even if he came here, he had a reason. Yunmeng sighed and said, "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Feijian, but this is my Huangshan business, and I don't want outsiders to interfere."
Fei Jian said: "I'm afraid this is difficult to do, and I suspect that the people from the Anti-Heaven Cult have already come here. Don't you know their purpose, Brother Dao? With us here, we can at least assist the real person."
Then Jingxu said, "Yes, Li Zhong was the first one to come down after Senior Brother Linya came down. Since he saved Senior Brother and cleared his name, why did he do this? Moreover, he claimed to have killed Shishui, and now Shishui is alive. Junior Brother suspects that they had colluded with each other long ago."
Yun Meng shouted angrily: "How dare you frame the gentleman and judge him by your own standards!" But he had thought about this too. After all, at this time, no one could be easily trusted.
Fei Jian sighed, "Master, I have wanted to tell you this for a long time. You and I have practiced for our entire lives, but we still cannot overcome the calamity and become true immortals. However, there is indeed such a person in the Nitian Sect. We are now in our twilight years and have such an opportunity. Don't you want to find out the truth?"
“Master is right. Who among us cultivators doesn’t want to overcome the calamity and become an immortal? Since they can do it, why can’t we?” Qin Moyao slowly walked out of the cave behind Feijian, came to Yunmeng, and bowed, saying, “Congratulations to Master Yun for your rebirth after the calamity!”
Feijian and Jingxu were surprised to see Qin Moyao following them. They had tried very hard to get rid of her, but they still failed.
In fact, Qin Moyao had been following the two people the whole time, and the mark at the fork in the road was also left by her to prevent the two people from getting rid of them and taking the rare treasures for themselves. She was also surprised to see Yun Meng was still alive, and secretly admired Wuzhan's medical skills. When she heard that people were following her, she could no longer hide and had to come out to meet them.
In a short while, Linyazi, Bixia and others arrived one after another. The others were surprised to see Yunmeng still alive. They couldn't believe their eyes. How could a person who had just died stand in front of them alive? "Is it because of Li Zhong?" After a round of concerned inquiries, Linyazi came to Jingxu and said viciously: "Didn't I ask you to stay up there? Why did you run down?"
Jingxu said anxiously: "I am..., I am worried..."
Yun Meng said: "Brother, don't ask him. We will deal with this matter later. Let him get up!"
Linyazi understood Yunmeng's meaning. After all, it was Huangshan's scandal, and it was inconvenient to expose it in front of the famous family. He said to Yunmeng: "I just met Zhishui, but he escaped."
Yun Meng said: "He will catch up again. I am staying here to wait for him. You can take them away from here!"
Feijian asked, "I wonder if you noticed the huge noise earlier."
Yunmeng said, "That was an earthquake. This is a common occurrence in Huangshan, but you are not here often, so you don't know about it."
These people have all experienced earthquakes before, and this is definitely not that kind of strange noise. Yun Meng used this to cover up, but no one would believe him. There must be some unspeakable secret.
Xuelian said: "Now that things have come to this, doesn't Master Yun want to tell the truth?"
Yun Meng knew that it was basically impossible to get these people to go back, so he sighed and said, "Well, then I will tell you all clearly that there is no technique you want in here, but it is the place where Chi You's spirit is sealed. The previous noise did not come from here. I have checked inside and no one has been in there."
Fei Jian cried out, "Oh no! This must be the work of the Anti-Heaven Cult. They must not be able to find the seal, so they made that strange noise to make us think they were going to unlock the seal, forcing us to come down to check, and then follow us here."
"Master Feijian guessed right, but unfortunately, it's a little late!" A sweet voice came from behind the crowd. Everyone looked back and saw Ye Xiaoxiang walking out slowly with a group of people, looking very proud. Behind him were Yin Qiu Ming, Li Xue Yu, Leng Qian Ren and Zhao Nan Shuang, all of whom were giants of the Ni Tian Sect and came with great momentum.
Everyone was horrified when they saw this scene and stepped back involuntarily. The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Yun Mengchen said: "It seems that we will have a battle today!"
Ye Xiaoxiang said: "That may not be the case. We in the Nitian Sect also respect the real person. As long as the real person takes the initiative to get out of the way, we will never hurt you."
Lin Yazi shouted: "You are dreaming!"
Leng Qianren held Zhan Yue horizontally and said in a cold voice: "If you don't accept it, you can come and try!"
Ye Xiaoxiang giggled and said, "Do you think you guys can stop us? I advise you all not to ruin your cultivation in this life."
Fei Jian said: "Good and evil cannot coexist since ancient times. If you want to release Chi You's spirit, we will not let you succeed even if we risk our lives."
When Yunmeng heard this, she felt respect for Feijian again. After all, it was not easy for him to say this when facing a powerful enemy.
Ye Xiaoxiang said: "The evil in your eyes is nothing but the pen in the hands of those victors. How much do you know about the truth of history? Do you know why the God of War Chi You was sealed?"
Fei Jian said: "You worship him as a god, so of course you have to say good things about him, but all of us cultivators take Emperor Xuanyuan as our ancestor. No matter how good you say it is, we won't listen."
Ye Xiaoxiang said, "Then there is no point in talking." He looked at the people on the opposite side and said, "If you don't want to die, you can step aside."
Hearing this, Luo Yuying and Mu Lingxue suddenly jumped out of the crowd and landed behind Ye Xiaoxiang. Luo Yuying said, "If you give up resistance and join the Nitian Sect, you will definitely be able to transcend the tribulation and become immortals."
Yun Meng and the others had guessed that the two men had joined the Ni Tian Sect, which was why their cultivation had improved so greatly. Luo Yuying's words were nothing more than an attempt to shake their will, but no one went over.
Seeing that no one was coming over and no one was backing down, Ye Xiaoxiang smiled and said, "Okay, you are all people with backbone, worthy of being a famous sect. Let's get started!"
