Chapter 88: Endless Entanglement

The wide spiritual field where everyone was at that moment, was actually a flat and broad valley in the Kunlun Mountain Range, surrounded by mountains, in the middle there was a rare vast flat land, full of spiritual energy and fertility, was a very important piece of production under the Kunlun School’s Hundred Herb Hall. Because of the largest mountain next to it, Stone Pan Mountain, the name of this valley basin was also directly named Stone Pan Valley.

At this moment, the warm sunlight was falling from the sky, shining in the Stone Pan Valley, the mountain wind blew through the valley from the forest, and countless spiritual grasses and spiritual plants danced against the wind, like a magnificent wave. But at the edge of the forest at the foot of Stone Pan Mountain, the atmosphere seemed cold and weird. Many handyman disciples surrounded there, all looking at the girl with her head down with incredible eyes.

Yi Xin's panic-stricken cry before did not look like she was just chatting in the woods at all, she was obviously frightened. But at the end of the day, the sufferer herself said it's okay, so what else can others do?

Zhou Kui quickly reacted, turned around and shouted at the miscellaneous disciples: "All right! Can't you see that Junior Sister Yi said she was fine, why are you still gathered here, go back to work!"

Many handyman disciples looked at each other in blank dismay. Most of the new disciples were young people. It was true that they are young and vigorous, but in this situation, everyone knows that there may be something inside, so they whispered and stared strangely. Under the gaze, the crowd slowly dispersed.

After Zhou Kui dispersed the crowd, he frowned at He Gang and Yi Xin at the edge of the forest with thick eyebrows, and wanted to turn around and walk away with a stern face, but at this time Yi Xin suddenly ran a few steps toward him, saying: "Senior Brother Zhou, I, I will go with you."

Zhou Kui paused slightly, and before he could speak, He Gang, who had a terrifying face behind him, said loudly: "Junior Sister Yi, I still have something to say to you!"

Yi Xin didn't even look at him, but looked at Zhou Kui with pleading eyes.

Zhou Kui was silent for a moment, then nodded, and said to Yi Xin, "All right."

Yi Xin immediately looked happy and nodded repeatedly, while He Gang was shocked and said, "Senior brother Zhou, what are you doing?"

Zhou Kui's eyes swept a trace of impatient expression, turned his head to look at He Gang, frowned and said, "Brother He, everything should be stopped when it is appropriate, not to mention that sister Yi has something to do so she will go with me, do you still want to discipline me?"

He Gang was glared at by Zhou Kui's gleaming eyes, and he flinched subconsciously. After a moment, he looked at Yi Xin fiercely and seemed to grit his teeth, then turned around and left without saying a word.

Yi Xin watched He Gang leave, and it was only at this moment that she finally breathed a sigh of relief, and she looked relieved. Seeing her expression in his eyes, Zhou Kui softened his eyes again, and said softly, "Are you all right?"

Yi Xin nodded silently.

Zhou Kui said: "Let's go." Then he walked forward.

Yi Xin followed beside him silently, but after walking for a while, she suddenly heard Zhou Kui's voice from beside her, saying, "Junior Sister Yi, you still have to figure out what to do about it yourself. "

Yi Xin looked up at Zhou Kui in a daze, and saw that Zhou Kui didn't look at her, but looked ahead, but said in a voice that only she could hear: "I have known Senior Brother He Yi for many years, Knowing that his talent is extraordinary, and seeing that he is about to break through the Golden Core realm, at his age, his future is boundless."

He turned around, with sympathy and helplessness on his face, and said: "It doesn't matter if I help you once in a while, Senior Brother He Yi will probably just smile when he hears about it. I'm afraid I'll offend him again. Do you understand?"

Yi Xin's face turned pale, and after a while, she hung her head and whispered, "I understand."

At this moment she looked lost in thought, her face as pale as paper, seemingly deep in some kind of fear of the future, so much so that she did not even notice that in a certain spiritual field not far away from them, Lu Chen was standing over there, looking at her figure thoughtfully.

The Kunlun School was a famous sect with a lot of rules, but it had not been ruthless over the years. Living in the mountain was clear and bitter, cultivation was boring, so the sect was not very strict in prohibiting the disciples to go down the mountain. Generally speaking, even the odd disciples, as long as they could guarantee to return before the late night curfew, the Kunlun School mountain gate guards basically would not stop them. But it was also because of the curfew order, whoever violated it, would be heavily punished, so unless it was ordered by the master to go out, the most general people could only be in Kunwu City under the mountain at most far to stroll.

However, the Kunlun Mountains were very vast, generally assigned in the southern foot of the mountain gate far away from some mountain places to practice or work disciples. If they didn't have the ability to travel quickly like flying with a sword, it would take several hours to get to the mountain gate. Well, in fact, there was no way to go down the mountain...

The Stone Pan Valley where Lu Chen was located was about an hour away from the Nanlu* Mountain Gate, which was neither far nor close. As long as you squeezed out a little time, you could still go around Kunwu City.

And in Kunwu City, the fat Lao Ma's Black Mound Pavilion was naturally his frequent place.

The remote and quiet alley was still deep, as if no matter how many years had passed, there was no guest coming. Lao Ma sat on the threshold sadly, and sighed: "Hey, when will there be business!"

"Don't even think about it." Sitting behind the counter in the room, Lu Chen lazily yawned and said, "Give up this thought, you are not suitable for business."

Lao Ma let out a "bah" and said indignantly: "Bullshit! I was born to be a genius, and I will definitely do something great in the future, and earn tens of thousands of family fortunes. When the time comes, you just wait and kneel in front of me."

Lu Chen said: "Wake up, it's not dark yet, don't dream."

Lao Ma muttered something, and probably felt that it was not appropriate to talk about ideals with this person, so he said, "You have been up the mountain for a month now, how is the situation?"

Lu Chen shrugged his shoulders and said, "At the beginning, I couldn't say anything, but the rules of this Kunlun sect are really a lot."

"It's not surprising that the five thousand-year-old school is famous." Lao Ma said with a smile, then glanced at the empty alley outside, and said: "By the way, the person you asked me to investigate last time, I found it."

Lu Chen frowned, looked over, and said, "Huh? I actually found it, I underestimated you."

Lu Chen raised an eyebrow, looked over and said, "Well? You really found it, I underestimated you."

Lao Ma had a slightly smug look on his face and said, "Nonsense! What kind of person is the old man. As long as I want to investigate, there is nothing up and down this Kunlun Mountain that I can't figure out!"

Lu Chen did not bother to care about this guy's wild bluff, only said: "Who is that person?"

Old horse said: "Moon Light Cut is extremely difficult to cultivate. Not many young disciples can cultivate it, it’s a woman, and in that period of time they were not in the Kunlun Mountain. After looking around, there is probably only one person left."

"Well?"

"Su Qingjun, the only disciple under the real Mu Yuan of the Kunlun School."
