It was completely different from the first time they met after rebirth. At this moment, Li Fenglan felt that the aura in Ning Qingmo's body was overflowing uncontrollably and irregularly.

After those few flashes of sword light just now, the ordinary people in Jingyue Lake have all dispersed.

"Your cultivation is not limited to Nascent Soul... Li Fenglan can't stop me." Ning Qingmo was still talking softly, when he finished speaking, he suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed Li Fenglan.

"Let go." Li Fenglan said coldly.

"What are you doing!" Seeing this, even Duan Wannian said angrily.

Ning Qingmo shook his head, he stared into Li Fenglan's eyes and said: "I was wrong, am I wrong..."

Although Ning Qingmo's mental state is not good now, but his hands are still so strong, Li Fenglan was held tightly by him, and it was difficult for him to move for a while.

Unlike Qiu Wanyou who was kind to her, Li Fenglan never felt that she owed Ning Qingmo anything, nor did she feel that it was necessary for them to recognize each other.

—Let Ning Qingmo know that she is Li Fenglan, and then be betrayed by him again?

Li Fenglan softly said "let go" again, seeing that Ning Qingmo didn't respond at all, Li Fenglan simply called out her spirit sword again.

This silver long sword was illuminated by the moonlight and the lotus lantern on the lake not far away, and gave off a faint cold light.

The cold light reflected on Li Fenglan's face, making his eyes extraordinarily cold. Li Fenglan didn't hesitate, he directly put the cold blade on Ning Qingmo's hand, and said without any emotion: "I said, let me go."

After seeing Li Fenglan's eyes clearly, Ning Qingmo finally calmed down a little bit.

Li Fenglan meant that if he didn't let go of him, would he drop the sword?

Ning Qingmo smiled miserably, he still held Li Fenglan, shook his head slightly and said: "...I'm sorry for you, if you want this hand, just drop the sword."

Li Fenglan: "..."

I haven't seen you for many years, why is there something wrong with Ning Qingmo's brain? ! Li Fenglan's eyes moved down slowly, and he saw that Yinxiu's hand that usually held the pipa was tightly holding his wrist.

Because of the excessive force, Ning Qingmo's knuckles have turned white.

"You said that." Li Fenglan gritted her teeth. He thought that as a music cultivator, Ning Qingmo's most precious thing was his hands. In the previous life, Ning Qingmo never even used a sword to fight with others.

Thousands of years have passed, although Ning Qingmo has lifted the sword, but the hand is still very important to him.

Although now Li Fenglan is no longer the little monk who dared not kill, but letting him chop off a person's hand like this... is still beyond his psychological tolerance. Li Fenglan raised the sword, she just wanted to scare Ning Qingmo.

But unexpectedly, Ning Qingmo didn't seem to be afraid at all.

The man was still holding Li Fenglan's wrist tightly, seeing that he hadn't dropped his sword for a long time, Ning Qingmo suddenly smiled, and then whispered in Li Fenglan's ear: "...Little Taoist priest, don't you want to do it?"

Little Taoist...

Li Fenglan remembered that Ning Qingmo liked to call herself that when she first met in the last life.

At that time, he was not the current ruthless Taoist monk, but a music cultivator known for his flamboyance. Back then, whenever Ning Qingmo called out the three words "little Taoist", Li Fenglan always felt embarrassed.

But hearing these three words now, Li Fenglan only felt extremely disgusted.

When he was about to die under the Fushen Formation, Ning Qingmo once said some extremely disgusting words to himself.

Maybe Li Fenglan didn't quite understand it before, but after going through so many things now, how could Li Fenglan not know what Ning Qingmo meant. And why did Ning Qingmo call herself a "little Taoist priest" at the beginning.

—In the previous life, Ning Qingmo never respected himself from the beginning to the end. Every time he uttered these three words deliberately, he wanted to see himself showing embarrassment.

Seeing that Li Fenglan didn't speak, Ning Qingmo finally continued to talk about the sentence he didn't finish at the beginning.

He smiled, and said in a daze: "I thought wrong at the beginning...they, they have already repaired your soul and put you...in this shell. I was a step too late."

After discovering that Li Fenglan's cultivation base was no lower than her own, Ning Qingmo immediately realized one thing - Li Fenglan is the best body to contain Li Fuyue's soul, not only her own thinking, but the person who really revived Li Fenglan had already set her sights on this a little.

I may be one step too late...

There is no need for him to guard this shell, the person inside this shell is already Li Fuyue!

This discovery made Ning Qingmo ecstatic.

In fact, most of his guesses were right.

Seeing Ning Qingmo's constantly changing expression, Li Fenglan felt panicked.

However, the opponent's pull was too tight, and there was still some spiritual power in his hand. After all, Ning Qingmo was a Mahayana monk, and it was even difficult for Li Fenglan to bounce him away with spiritual power.

But Li Fenglan couldn't cut off a person's arm with a sword.

Duan Wannian's curses could be heard beside Li Fenglan's ears, and Cheng Huang in his arms kept baring his teeth at the man beside him.

At this moment, Ling Buyan, who had been standing beside Li Fenglan, suddenly stepped forward.

He gave Ning Qingmo a cold look before he said, "Immortal Ning Qingmo, have you acted enough?"

"play?"

After hearing Ling Buyan's words, Ning Qingmo looked up at him as if he had just noticed this person.

Ling did not tire of smiling, looked at him and said, "A one-man show. Didn't you realize that Feng Lan doesn't want to pay attention to you at all?"

Ling Buyan's tone and the smile on his face were very light, so light that he could barely feel any emotion, but the more calm he was, the greater the stimulation to Ning Qingmo.

"You... Who are you? This is between me and him, and has nothing to do with you." Ning Qingmo's emotions suddenly became agitated.

It was also at this time that Li Fenglan and Ling Buyi felt that Ning Qingmo's mind was completely messed up.

Even Ling was not in a hurry to answer Ning Qingmo's question, he first said: "Your ruthless way is not stable."

Ruthless Dao is unstable.

Ning Qingmo himself is a ruthless Taoist monk who made his debut halfway. In fact, after he switched to the ruthless way, he almost knew that he had no chance to ascend in this life.

"Hahaha yes..." Ning Qingmo looked at Li Fenglan with a smile, and then said in a hoarse voice: "I know that I have no destiny for the Dao, and I switched to the Ruthless Dao at the beginning... It was just to keep Fuyue's remnant It's just a soul. Now that I know you're alright..."

"Ning Qingmo." Li Fenglan finally interrupted him.

In fact, Li Fenglan was unwilling to speak to him as "Li Fuyue" before hearing the other party say this sentence.

But now, after hearing what Ning Qingmo said just now, Li Fenglan finally couldn't help it.

He said to Ning Qingmo: "Do you think I will be moved after hearing what you said? Ning Qingmo, you are too self-righteous."

Ning Qingmo's smile immediately froze on her face.

After hearing Li Fenglan's words, Ling Buyan, Duan Wannian, and even Cheng Huang, who was held in his arms, looked up at Li Fenglan in disbelief.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but even Ning Qingmo's hand, which was holding Li Fenglan tightly, relaxed a little after hearing what he said just now.

Li Fenglan continued: "I knew it when I was about to die in my last life, Ning Qingmo, you are a person without a conscience. It is also from you that I know that in the world of comprehension, people without a conscience can live happily How comfortable."

Duan Wannian has also heard about Ning Qingmo. Even because the demon world and the comprehension world are in conflict, many gossips in the comprehension world are spread more widely on their side.

Duan Wannian probably knew that Ning Qingmo used Li Fenglan back then.

So after hearing Li Fenglan's words, Duan Wannian felt a burst of relief.

She smiled and said, "Isn't it? Wasn't he the one who betrayed his friends in exchange for a position in the sect?"

Ning Qingmo's hands trembled slightly.

Of course Ning Qingmo knew what good deeds he had done, but at the same time he was praying silently in his heart, Li Fenglan didn't know what he had done, or... didn't understand.

But this is all just self-deception.

Maybe Li Fuyue didn't understand back then, but Li Fenglan, who died once, should understand no matter what.

"I..." Ning Qingmo opened her mouth, but she didn't know how to explain it.

Yes, these things are indeed done by myself.

What Duan Wannian didn't even know was that he had a purpose in making friends with Li Fuyue back then.

Seeing that Ning Qingmo still didn't let go, Li Fenglan simply continued: "Ning Qingmo, do you think I will be moved by what you said? You just have a conscience. Think to yourself, do I have a little conscience because of you?" And thank you?"

Hearing this, Ning Qingmo finally realized clearly that Li Fenglan had changed.

He was completely different from the gentle Li Fuyue in his previous life who didn't know how to fight.

"No, no..." Ning Qingmo didn't know what to say anymore, he just held Li Fenglan's hand tightly and kept shaking his head.

Ning Qingmo wanted to explain, but couldn't.

Seeing him like this, Ling Buyi took another two steps forward.

He finally delayed for a long time, and answered the question Ning Qingmo asked just now: "Alright Immortal Ning Qingmo, I, as a master, will take Feng Lan back."

Before Ning Qingmo could answer, a black scabbard suddenly appeared in Ling Buyan's hand. Before everyone could see the scabbard clearly in the dark night, it struck Ning Qingmo's heart hard, In a moment, he hit Ning Qingmo's wrist again.

Ling Buyan was still standing where he was, and didn't move the scabbard, but the scabbard seemed to have eyes, and it accurately hit several big holes on Ning Qingmo's body.

The next moment Ning Qingmo instinctively let go of the pain because of the unbearable pain.

Seeing this scene, Duan Wannian, who had been watching the show, suddenly made a move, and whipped at Ning Qingmo with the thirteen-section whip, and beat the man back a few steps.

——As a member of the Yaozu, Duan Wannian has never understood the principle of "you can't take advantage of others' danger". All she knew was that she had a good time playing in the water just now, but was inexplicably disturbed by this monk.

Now is a good time to come back with revenge.

After Li Fenglan turned around, Ning Qingmo, who was lying on the cold and wet river bank, looked at the back of the other party, and a tear finally flowed from the corner of her eyes.

Li Fenglan left.

he's still gone...

It was another year of worshiping the moon. The lake that was bustling with people was now empty. And that simple little Taoist priest disappeared forever...

The person who made him disappear was himself.

"Fuyue..." Looking at the back of the other party, Ning Qingmo repeated that name over and over again, but only his voice was left echoing over and over again on the empty lake.

This night, Ning Qing's ruthless way of practicing for thousands of years was completely destroyed.

…

After Li Fenglan turned around, she didn't look back.

Unlike Ning Qingmo, who is full of nostalgia, Li Fenglan just feels speechless and funny now.

—I was too stupid in my previous life.

Just when Li Fenglan recalled all kinds of things in his previous life, the back of his hand suddenly felt cold.

"Hiss—" Li Fenglan was fascinated by the thought, when the back of his hand suddenly felt cold, which startled him.

And when Li Fenglan subconsciously lowered her head to look at it, she was even more surprised.

"Snake?" It was Li Fenglan who spoke.

"What, snake? Ahhh." The screaming one is the ancient beast Cheng Huang.

Even while screaming, Cheng Huang broke free from Li Fenglan's hand two or three times, stepped on his arms and stood on Li Fenglan's shoulders. As its owner, Li Fenglan never knew that Cheng Huang's movements could be so agile?

Seeing Chenghuang like this, Duan Wannian, who is a monster, couldn't help laughing: "Hahahahaha, you are still an ancient beast? Isn't this too worthless?"

"Woooooo~" Chenghuang seemed to be really frightened. He rubbed against Li Fenglan aggrievedly, and then said in a nasal voice, "I, I'm still a child..."

Ling Buyan: "...kid?"

— When Li Fenglan heard that Ling Buyan, who had seen Cheng Huang's heroic appearance in his previous life, repeated this sentence, there was a bit of suspicion in life in his tone.

Master's reaction like this is really rare.

But thinking about the changes in the two lives before and after Chenghuang, it is amazing enough...

Li Fenglan was only paying attention to Lingbu just now, so she accidentally forgot the icy cold feeling on her hand for a while. It wasn't until she felt something rubbing against the back of her hand again that Li Fenglan finally lowered her head, pulled up her wide sleeves, and looked at the back of her hand.

Then he saw... a black scabbard was hanging in the air, like a kitten's tail, twirling around the back of his hand...

"What is this?" Li Fenglan just walked into an alley, the surrounding light was very dim, and he couldn't tell what the scabbard looked like for a while.

While speaking, Li Fenglan picked up the scabbard.

Then he finally took advantage of the moonlight to see what the thing looked like clearly.

"This...isn't this the scabbard that Master used to hit Ning Qingmo just now?" Li Fenglan hesitated for a while, and finally said this sentence.

After hearing his words, Ling Buyan, who was walking obliquely in front of Li Fenglan just now, frowned and turned around.

After being locked by the master's sight, the scabbard that was still rubbing around Li Fenglan a few breaths ago suddenly stopped in Li Fenglan's hand without moving.

Ling Buyan: "It is it."

"Ah?" Li Fenglan just asked casually just now, he didn't expect that Ling Buyan's scabbard really came here by itself.

As a sword repairman, what Li Fenglan knows best is the sword in his hand.

And all these years, Li Fenglan seems to have never seen a scabbard running around with its master on its back.

Perhaps it was really strange that Li Fenglan even forgot about Ning Qingmo.

"Ahem..." Ling Buyi took the scabbard back from Li Fenglan's hand, and at this moment, the scabbard actually tried to break free from Ling Buyan's hand, and went back to Li Fenglan again.

Ling Buti said: "This sword has been with me for some years, and I have given birth to a little sword spirit. I have been sleeping for a few years, and now I wake up not long ago. I guess I am quite strange about everything in this world."

"Wow!" Before he could speak, Duan Wannian came forward first, "There is a sword spirit!"

Duan Wannian couldn't help stretching out his hand to get the scabbard, but just now he was still rubbing the scabbard on the back of Li Fenglan's hand, but as if he disliked her, he turned over in his master's hand and hid Duan Wannian. past.

Duan Wannian didn't feel angry, she said rather strangely: "I heard that there are sword spirits in this world, maybe there are only five or six in total, I didn't expect there to be one here."

Just like she said, there are too few long swords with sword spirits in this world. If he had seen this scene a few days ago, Duan Wannian might not have believed Ling Buyi's words at all.

But after seeing his father Duan Jisu's attitude towards Ling Buyan, Duan Wannian has already tacitly agreed in his heart that Ling Buyan is a great power in the cultivation world who has never been born.

Hearing this, Ling Buyi smiled and did not speak.

And Li Fenglan also came over, he glanced at the black sword body, and then said subconsciously: "This sword is long, and it is somewhat similar to my 'Law Karma'."

I don't know if it's an illusion, but Li Fenglan always felt that after she said the sentence just now, she was lying quietly on the scabbard in Ling Buyi's hand a moment ago, and she suddenly became agitated.

wait! Whether a scabbard is exciting or not, how can I tell?

Li Fenglan shook her head slightly, and threw out the strange feeling just now from her mind.

He glanced at the scabbard again, and then said in a regretful tone: "Karma is a good sword, but I'm afraid I'm not...a master who can be worthy of it."

That's right, Karma is the best sword in the world, how can its owner be someone who has not even ascended yet?

Li Fenglan's tone was a little lonely.

"Except for you, no one in this world is worthy of karma." Ling Buyan said suddenly.

And when Ling Buyan was talking, the scabbard of Ling Buyan actually floated in the air, and nodded towards Li Fenglan.

This scene is really a bit magical.

Although he knew the existence of the sword spirit just now, Duan Wannian exaggeratedly said when he saw the long sword nodding: "Wow! It can nod, so smart!"

Li Fenglan smiled and said: "I have karma and sword spirits. Speaking of which, before I saw Master's sword, I have never seen a sword that gave birth to sword spirits. I don't know the difference between the two swords. Spirits, can they also communicate?"

Li Fenglan just said it casually, but when he finished speaking, the black scabbard that had calmed down a little earlier unexpectedly drew a beautiful arc in the air—the sword spirit obviously couldn't speak and had no expression, but However, Li Fenglan deciphered an emotion called "happiness" from it.

The appearance of Ling Buyan's scabbard was considered an episode, but this episode made Li Fenglan temporarily forget his unhappiness with Ning Qingmo.

Ling Buyan was not a master who had strict requirements on his apprentices, and Duan Wannian and Cheng Huang deliberately delayed, so this trip, which could be completed in one day, was delayed for several days.

The few people don't have any major things to do now anyway, so they wandered around in several towns in the human world.

It was also at this time that Li Fenglan realized that besides those monster clans who were causing trouble in the human world, there were quite a few monsters who slipped to live on the other side of Duozhi Mountain simply because they could not bear the harsh environment in the monster domain. .

Every time Li Fenglan and his party went to a town, there would be monsters secretly coming to see Duan Wannian.

At the beginning, they avoided Li Fenglan and his party. But later, it became more and more unscrupulous.

— such as now.

Several people were sitting in a small tea house facing the river in the city. Li Fenglan saw that, outside this cubicle, there were a few men with a monstrous aura looking at them furtively through the gap in the screen.

They thought they were pretending well, but they didn't know that the evil aura on their bodies had completely exposed their whereabouts just after they arrived here.

Seeing this, Li Fenglan finally couldn't help but put down the teacup in his hand, he turned around and glanced at Duan Wannian who was also pretending nothing happened, and said: "Those people outside, don't you ask them to come in and have a cup of tea together? "

If an ordinary person finds out that his subordinates are sneaking around and peeking outside and are caught, they will definitely feel very embarrassed.

But Duan Wannian from the Demon Realm didn't seem to think so. After hearing Li Fenglan's words, she turned into a little golden bird at some point, and quickly raised her head from the pile of melon seeds.

"Cuckoo!" Duan Wannian's voice was extraordinarily excited.

Li Fenglan:?

Although Duan Wannian has always recognized her as an elder of the same clan, it doesn't mean that Li Fenglan can understand what her "cuckoo" means.

So before Li Fenglan could react, seeing that he was silent, Duan Wannian suddenly turned into a human body, and said to the people outside: "Come in! Fenglan asked me to treat you to tea!"

In just a few breaths, the originally spacious tea room was filled with a bunch of monsters.

And after they sat down, they didn't recognize Li Fenglan and Ling Buyi, and they didn't feel their cultivation, and they didn't treat Li Fenglan like an outsider, and by the way... talked about gossip about the cultivation world.

Li Fenglan wasn't interested in these things, but he never expected that he would actually hear some major events in the cultivation world that he didn't know about.
