Duan Qianli's calculation was good.

He thought that Li Fuyue went to a boring and old place like Tianmian Palace when she was a teenager, and stayed there for thousands of years, and even almost became the head of the palace. That must be very affectionate to Tianmian Palace and the entire cultivation world.

If she went too early, Li Fuyue might dislike her meddling in their cultivation world's business.

"Wait a little longer..." Duan Qianli threw another cherry into his mouth, "Don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry."

His voice was so low that only he and the flower demon standing beside him could hear him.

For some reason, Duan Qianli was inexplicably guilty when he said this.

Rather than saying that he is talking to the flower demon beside him, it is better to say that he is comforting himself.

"Yes, young master." The flower demon didn't dare to say more, and slowly backed away.

The room became quiet again, Duan Qianli gritted his teeth and peeled an orange.

What he loves most in his life is food. The land in the Demon World is barren and the climate is bad. The sun doesn't see several times throughout the year. These fruits in front of me are all obtained from the human world, and they need to be exchanged for a lot of spirit stones in the monster race.

Normally, as long as he starts eating, Duan Qianli will forget all his troubles.

But this day, the feeling of uneasiness continued to spread in his heart...

Speaking of Duan Qianli daring to go to Tianshui Palace to **** people, he must have made some preparations.

For example, he arranged for a spy to go to Tianmian Palace to watch every move there.

——All descendants of the demon **** Bi Fang have the ability to hide their demonic aura.

cough cough.

Therefore, in Duan Qianli's opinion, the most suitable person in this world to hide in Tianmian Palace as a spy is naturally his own sister Duan Wannian.

At this moment, Duan Qianli was eating and basking in the sun in the palace.

And his younger sister, Duan Wannian, was nestled in the snowy mountains beside Meizhou, where the cold wind was blowing.

"Go to hell, Duan Qianli..." Duan Wannian, who was disguised as a little sword repairer, cursed softly while staring at the snowy Meizhou not far away, "If you have a wife and forget your sister, you are not demonic!"

She has been here for several days.

Duan Wannian, who was fooled by Duan Qianli with the slogan "Break into Tianmian Palace and capture Li Fuyue alive", lay in ambush in the snow with great enthusiasm at first, observing the movement not far away.

But now, she has learned through several exchanges with the tribe that Duan Qianli is lying! His real purpose was actually the last few words that he didn't say to himself: "Capture Li Fuyue alive, **** back the Yaozu and become the young master's wife!"

Thinking of this, Duan Wannian scolded Duan Qianli again.

"go to hell!"

Duan Wannian's words were originally cursing her brother, but the second after she finished speaking, everything changed.

Suddenly, there was a loud noise from the snow mountain where she was hiding.

In an instant, the entire snow-capped mountain shook, and stones continued to fall downwards.

Duan Wannian, who was supposed to be hiding here quietly, finally couldn't help screaming. Fortunately, the loud noise in the valley at this time completely covered her voice.

After all, Duan Wannian was also a general of the Monster Clan. After that moment of panic, she quickly regained her composure and looked towards the snowy Meizhou not far away.

Looking at it, Duan Wannian discovered something extraordinary...

She saw that Li Fuyue broke free from the two immortal chains and slowly stood up.

"Something's wrong..." Duan Wannian gritted his teeth, and slowly stepped back.

According to the deduction of Duan Wannian and other members of the Yaozu - the cultivation world intends to use the lock chain to shatter Li Fuyue's mind, and then activate the Fushen Formation.

And now Li Fuyue broke free from the chain of immortality because of a misunderstanding...

Plans are bound to change.

Duan Wannian became nervous instantly, she picked up a sound transmission talisman, and sent the news to the tribe and Duan Qianli as quickly as possible.

She didn't realize that her hands were trembling uncontrollably the moment she took out the sound transmission talisman.

…

On this day, Duan Qianli was particularly restless.

Even at the end, he stared blankly at the remaining fruit in the fruit plate.

Seeing him like this, the little flower demon who was in charge of Duan Qianli's diet and daily life hesitated for a while, and finally walked up cautiously, and asked him in a low voice: "Young master, do you want to change a fruit plate?"

Duan Qianli waved his hands impatiently, and walked to the window.

At some point, Yaoyu returned to its usual state.

The long-lost sunlight disappeared again, and there was a gray scene outside the window.

It was obviously the scene he was most used to, but Duan Qianli couldn't help feeling irritable.

As if echoing the uneasiness in his heart, when Duan Qianli stood by the window, his sister's familiar voice suddenly appeared in the sound transmission symbol placed on the desk.

Duan Wannian said in a trembling voice: "No, it's not good... Li Fuyue broke free from the immortal chain, what... what is he going to do?"

Along with Duan Wannian's voice, there was also a loud sound of landslides and ground cracks.

Duan Qianli stared blankly at the sound transmission symbol.

He knew that at this moment, his plan had failed.

It was not written in "Taoist of Heavenly Sleep", and what Duan Qianli did not tell anyone was that after hearing Duan Wannian's sound transmission, he went to Tianmian Palace alone without bringing anyone.

When Duan Qianli arrived there, everything was over.

The rumored most beautiful blessed land in the world of self-cultivation, Meizhou in the Snow Region, is now a sea of ​​flames.

"Fuyue...Fuyue!" Duan Qianli fell from the sky and walked forward in a stumbling manner.

The light golden silk robe couldn't cover the wind and snow, and Duan Qianli's sleeves were flying in the air. He looked down and saw that the land under his feet, which was covered with snow all the year round, actually exposed the original brown-black soil at this moment.

It turned out that the fire had already melted the snow here, but now the snow has stopped, and Duan Qianli's white hair has become the only snow color in this land.

Wumei is not extraordinary, so the flames ignited by Wumei branches are even more powerful.

But also because of the fire, the people who were supposed to go to the snowy Meizhou to deal with Li Fuyue's relics were also kept out, and there was a brief moment of tranquility here.

Speaking of which, other people may be afraid of this fire, but Duan Qianli is not. After all, his body is always burning with Samadhi True Fire.

Without any pause or hesitation, Duan Qianli ran straight into the flames...

He didn't understand the snowy Meizhou formation, so as soon as he entered the forest, he started spinning around in place.

After an unknown amount of time, Duan Qianli finally stopped.

He understood that he would never see Li Fuyue again.

"Fuyue..." The snow-haired demon cultivator slowly knelt down on the ground, buried his face in his hands, and finally wept wantonly in this sea of ​​flames.

He hadn't had time to tell Li Fuyue solemnly that when he said he liked him, he was never joking.

The fire in the snowy Meizhou is still burning, and Duan Qianli, who is kneeling here, has never hoped that he is not from the Bi Fang clan like this moment.

…If he is afraid of fire like ordinary people, will he be able to burn with the Snowy Meizhou and accompany Li Fuyue forever?

After an unknown amount of time, Duan Qianli's hand finally let go.

At this time, the sky in the east had faint signs of lightening up.

Li Fenglan reckoned that Duan Qianli was about to wake up too, and he slowly wrestled his wrist out of the opponent's hand.

Speaking of which, Li Fenglan wanted to leave directly, but after thinking for a while, he still didn't leave immediately.

Li Fenglan wore Qingzhu and hid on a big tree in the forest.

Even if he was seriously injured, Duan Qianli was still a demon cultivator at the Mahayana stage.

Li Fenglan saw from a distance that not long after she left there, Duan Qianli stood up while supporting the tree.

He paused for a moment, and took out a paper crane from the storage ring. The paper crane disappeared in the next second, and Duan Qianli finally couldn't help coughing twice, and sat down again.

Li Fenglan guessed that after leaving Tianmian Palace, Duan Qianli should have been in contact with Yaozu.

The other party practiced with them this time, probably for the purpose of slipping away and returning to the Demon Realm at any time during the training.

Sure enough, not long after, several red lights fell directly in front of him.

Before Li Fenglan could see clearly who it was, a familiar voice came from his ear.

"Duan Qianli!" A girl in red came up and said fiercely, "You still know you're back? Just leave the mess to me and run away, don't you feel ashamed?"

Taking a closer look, it turned out that the person who spoke was Duan Qianli's younger sister, Duan Wannian. In the previous life, Li Fenglan had seen her a few times.

Speaking of which, Li Fenglan really agreed with Duan Wannian's point of view: Duan Qianli left the Yaozu and ran away, really irresponsible!

"Cough cough cough...Brother is testing you." Duan Qianli stood up with the support of several demon servants.

After hearing his words, Duan Wannian came forward and patted his brother on the shoulder heavily and said, "Test me? Hehe, do you still remember 'capture Li Fuyue alive and take back—'"

"Stop!"

Duan Wannian was interrupted in the middle of his words, obviously this was something the other party didn't want to hear.

Li Fenglan, who was forced to hear the conversation between the two brothers and sisters, was full of question marks at this moment.

Who did those two monster cultivators say they wanted to capture alive... Li Fuyue?

If he heard correctly, that person is himself, right?

Because of last night's rescue, Li Fenglan's goodwill towards Duan Qianli has been raised with great difficulty, but now it has dropped back.

Duan Qianli's current state is not very good, but just like this, the feeling of arrogance and domineering in him has finally weakened.

After Duan Wannian said a few words to him, he left with his people.

After watching them disappear, Li Fenglan finally jumped down from the tree.

He stood on the spot and recalled it for a while, then walked towards the city behind the stream according to his memory.

Before Li Fenglan left for a long time, she saw the people from Tianmian Palace who came to look for her.

Before he could see the figure in front of him clearly, he heard Zhuang Zhixia shouting loudly: "Li Fenglan! I finally found you!" After finishing speaking, he ran to his side.

And the group of people following Zhuang Zhixia hardly expressed anything after seeing Li Fenglan.

Obviously they didn't come here voluntarily to find Li Fenglan.

But this is also understandable.

The forest in front of them is often haunted by ferocious beasts. There was a wave of beasts just a few days ago, and they almost died in the wave of beasts. People who have seen how dangerous the forest is, of course, will not be willing to come to the forest to find someone.

Li Fenglan could see their emotions, but she didn't care.

With the experience of the previous life, he is no longer willing to believe in "good intentions".

Rather than being betrayed in the end, it would be better to write the word "unfamiliar" on your face from the beginning, so that you can feel at ease.

"By the way, where is that junior brother who is always with you?" After receiving Li Fenglan, Zhuang Zhixia couldn't help but look back, as if he was looking for Duan Qianli.

Li Fenglan hesitated for a moment, pretended to be disappointed and said: "I don't know, I actually didn't keep up with him last night..."

It has to be said that compared with the previous life, Li Fenglan, who was reborn once, finally has a little bit of acting skills.

After hearing Li Fenglan's disappointed tone, Zhuang Zhixia immediately understood what happened.

Although Tianmian Palace is the number one sect in the cultivation world, all of its disciples are top-notch.

But the path of cultivation itself is against the sky, no one can say where they can go, and no one knows what they will encounter.

Just like Li Fenglan in the past, didn't the scar on his face also come from training?

"That's it." Zhuang Zhixia frowned and didn't speak any more.

Although the monks behind him did not participate in the conversation between Li Fenglan and Zhuang Zhixia, they listened to everything they said.

"Senior Sister, since Li Fenglan didn't find that He Yuanyuan last night, then we certainly can't find it either."

"Yes, senior sister, let's not stay here any longer, it's too dangerous."

"... Zongmen told us to go back."

Seeing that Zhuang Zhixia didn't speak, they hurried forward to persuade the senior sister to leave.

And Li Fenglan also heard from the words of these people that the Zongmen already knew about their encounter with the tide of fierce beasts and the disciples of the Mingxin Sect, and told them to go back as soon as possible.

After leaving Tianmian Palace, Li Fenglan stayed with Duan Qianli all the time, and the other monks thought that the two had a good relationship.

So when he was talking, he sneaked a glance at Li Fenglan from time to time.

Fortunately, Li Fenglan did not raise any objections.

At this moment, he was just a little curious, what was Tianmian Palace asking them to go back so early for.

If Li Fenglan's memory is correct, generally speaking, the experience of Tianmian Palace will last for two or three months, and it is rare to end in such a hurry.

…

Li Fenglan didn't sleep all night, so after boarding the spirit boat, he sat alone in the boat and fell asleep. When he woke up, he had already returned to Tianshui Palace.

Just like when leaving, the spirit boat stopped directly at the main peak square of Tianmian Palace.

But what is a little different is that the person waiting for them here this time is not Meng Linzhou, but...a person that even Li Fenglan can't imagine.

This is a tall and slender woman, she is wearing a concubine-colored embroidered long dress, her hair is coiled behind her head like a cloud of ink, and it is covered with gorgeous gold and jade ornaments.

At the same time that the spirit boat came to a complete stop, the woman's beautiful red phoenix eyes had already looked over here.

Although she looked only in her early thirties, her demeanor was exceptionally cold.

Seeing her appearing here, the originally noisy spirit boat suddenly became quiet, and all the people on the boat turned their eyes to her.

Most of the disciples only thought she looked familiar, but among these young disciples, only Zhuang Zhixia recognized her.

The next moment he saw the woman, Zhuang Zhixia quickly got off the spirit boat.

She bowed to the visitor and said, "Disciple Zhuang Zhixia, I have met Master Mu Xianzun."

"En." The woman called "Master Muxian" nodded slightly.

It wasn't until this time that the other monks realized that the person standing in front of him and this woman were the Chizhen Immortal Venerable Mu Hantao who had not been able to retreat all the year round!

Besides Li Fenglan's rebel disciple Meng Linzhou, and his unlucky younger brother Lin Chaochen, there are two immortals in Tianmian Palace.

However, the cultivation of those two immortals had stopped at the Mahayana stage for thousands of years. They have not seen any signs of breakthrough for many years, and they spend most of their time in retreat.

In fact, for monks, this is the norm.

Even if they break through many difficulties and obstacles, the monks who can successfully ascend in the Mahayana stage are only one in a thousand.

When something happened to the sect's enchantment last time, Mu Hantao also showed up, but the situation was urgent, and few people bothered to observe her at that time.

"I've seen Master Muxian!"

After hearing Zhuang Zhixia's explanation of the identity of the visitor, the others also hurriedly got off the spirit boat, wanting to salute the woman.

But before they left, Mu Hantao waved his hand and said, "There's no need to perform those empty gestures, I'm here to find you, I have something to do."

Hearing Mu Hantao's words, everyone was a little surprised.

But Li Fenglan is used to women's behavior style.

——Mu Hantao has always been a loner, she didn't even accept a single apprentice.

Speaking of Li Fenglan and Mu Hantao, there is still some relationship.

More than three thousand years ago, when Mu Hantao went down to the realm, Li Fenglan was brought back to Tianmian Palace.

Although the two of them haven't met each other very much since then, Li Fenglan has always had a good impression of her because of this matter.

When Li Fenglan was reminiscing about the past, he suddenly heard Mu Hantao say: "I heard that you encountered a wave of ferocious beasts in Xihou City."

Zhuang Zhixia nodded quickly.

"There are also abnormalities in the beasts forbidden by the Zongmen. Come and take a look with me." Mu Hantao never made a secret when she spoke, and she directly stated the purpose of her trip.

And Li Fenglan finally understood that the group of them should be called back by Mu Hantao.

Since thousands of years ago, when the concept of "vicious beast tide" came into being, Mu Hantao has raised many vicious beasts in the forbidden area, trying to find out the reason why the vicious beasts appeared abnormally.

"Yes, Lord Xianzun." Zhuang Zhixia nodded immediately.

Mu Hantao stopped talking, the woman waved her hand lightly, and then a huge folding fan appeared at the feet of everyone.

Before they could react, the folding fan had followed its owner, carrying people towards the forbidden area.

Seeing that Mu Hantao went to the forbidden area alone, the person on the fan finally whispered.

"...This is the first time I've seen Master Muxian."

"I saw her last time at the main peak square," said a monk. "The Immortal Master of the Ring was also there at that time, and they all came to strengthen the barrier."

There are countless monks in Tianshui Palace, but there are only a few "immortals".

Ordinary monks naturally yearn for the word "immortal venerable".

On the way to the forbidden area, Li Fenglan heard them talking about Mu Hantao. However, Mu Hantao has been in seclusion for many years, and there are not many rumors about her in the sect.

Li Fenglan was not interested in listening to them, he sat quietly on the edge of the huge folding fan and looked down.

At this moment, the huge concubine color folding fan finally entered the forbidden area of ​​Tianmian Palace.

To ordinary disciples, this place is naturally very mysterious.

But Li Fuyue in her previous life almost became the head of Tianmian Palace. He used to be able to freely enter and exit the forbidden area, but he has long since lost interest in it.

Just when Li Fenglan was looking at the edge of the forbidden area, thinking wildly.

The huge folding fan suddenly and slowly fell down.

"Huh...why don't you fly forward?" A monk asked Zhuang Zhixia curiously, and then heard her reply: "We have already entered the forbidden area, we have to walk the rest of the way by ourselves."

Ordinary monks can only walk to the core area of ​​the forbidden area. If Zhuang Zhixia hadn't said it, Li Fenglan would have almost forgotten about it.

The forbidden area of ​​Tianmian Palace is not a barren hill as people think.

Where the folding fan landed was a square paved with huge white stones.

I don't know what material that stone is made of, but after stepping on it, there is a chill directly from the soles of the feet.

"This square is really big..." Li Fenglan couldn't help but sighed when she heard the monk standing beside her.

After saying this, he subconsciously kicked away a dead branch under his feet.

"Don't move!" Zhuang Zhixia suddenly stepped forward, slapped the monk on the shoulder and said, "Don't be rude in the forbidden area."

"Hey?" The man was stunned for a moment, and muttered softly, "I just kicked a dead branch, how can I be considered rude?"

Unexpectedly, the person who answered his question in the next moment was not Zhuang Zhixia, but Li Fenglan.

He who hadn't spoken all this time smiled, turned around and asked, "Do you know where this place used to be?"

Even though it was covered by a hood, the monk couldn't see Li Fenglan's expression. But listening to Li Fenglan's tone, he still felt extremely dangerous.

"What, where is it?"

"This is the main hall of the sect at the beginning of the Tianmian Palace's establishment." Li Fenglan replied.

"Ah?" The man obviously didn't expect that the answer would be like this. He subconsciously glanced at Zhuang Zhixia, but saw that she had no intention of refuting Li Fenglan at all.

It seems that this place is indeed the same as what Li Fenglan said, it used to be the main hall of the sect.

"But... why is it flat now?" The monk held back for a long time, and finally couldn't help asking Li Fenglan.

Li Fenglan walked forward and said: "The owner here hid the original main hall in a secret realm before ascension."

Li Fenglan suddenly stopped and turned around again: "Do you know who its owner is?"

"Ah?" The monk shook his head blankly.

"It's the Immortal Ancestor Chuxuan." Before the cultivator could get out of the shock brought by these four words.

Li Fenglan added, "I heard that the old man is a little narrow-minded, and left a lot of restrictions in the forbidden area before he ascended. It is because of this that this place has become a forbidden area. So... if your kick just now offended Chu Xuanxian Zu, what will be the consequences, naturally I don't need to say more?"

As soon as Li Fenglan's voice fell, the person who kicked the dead branch just now stopped at the same spot without moving.

If you observe carefully, you can still see that he is standing there trembling.

Li Fenglan's words finally activated a bit of his memory.

According to legend, the mysterious realms left behind by the immortal ancestor Xuanchu after his ascension were full of various restrictions.

Now that this square is also his territory, the possibility of setting up the same restriction is really outrageous.

Seeing the monk's appearance, Li Fenglan couldn't help laughing, then walked forward pretending nothing happened.

What he said just now was half-truth and half-false—the Immortal Ancestor Chuxuan did impose a lot of restrictions in the secret realm, but he didn't know whether there were any here.

But now it seems that there should be no more.

After all, if there is a reaction to the restriction set by Xuanchu Immortal Ancestor, a thunderstorm will be sent down on the spot to remind him.

However, the moment Li Fenglan turned around, a purple thunder suddenly fell from the sky not far away...

It is exactly the same as the restriction left by Xuanchu Immortal Ancestor as recorded in the book.

Li Fenglan: "..."

Immortal Ancestor Xuanchu didn't think he was narrow-minded, did he?
