Chapter 149: Sudden Backstab
Chapter 149: Sudden Backstab
Inside the Sword Sect, deep in a quiet bamboo forest, there is a small courtyard with a winding bluestone path.
The tall and handsome man and the hunchbacked old woman walked across the bluestone paved road and came to the door.
The door is carved with auspicious cloud patterns, and the mottled marks tell of the passage of time.
When I pushed the door open, a faint scent of sandalwood hit my nose.
The light in the room is soft, and tiny spots of light shine through the paper windows, casting dancing shadows on the ground.
A few simple cushions are placed in the middle, facing a landscape painting hanging on the wall, which is smudged with ink and has a profound artistic conception.
There is an exquisite incense burner in the corner. The curling green smoke rises slowly, blending with the sandalwood in the air, making people feel peaceful.
"Please sit down." Ji Yue said lightly.
Then he sat down by himself.
Gu Mo looked at her old face, stood quietly for a long time, and finally sat down on a cushion beside her.
"Fellow Daoist Ji Yue, why did you become... like this now?"
Ji Yue's eyes were calm, and her voice was neither light nor heavy: "It is difficult to pass the immortal gate, that's all."
"..." Gu Mo fell silent upon hearing that.
He himself is about to face this step, so how could he not know the danger involved.
There have been countless heroes in ancient and modern times, but only a few have been able to reach their level. And there have only been a few who have been able to break through the gates of immortality and achieve enlightenment and become immortals.
It’s just… although I had guessed it when we met, seeing my once heroic fellow Taoist turned into this dying state, I couldn’t help but feel some complicated emotions in my heart.
"Gu Mo, why are you here to see Sword Ancestor?" Ji Yue asked calmly.
Although Sword Master called her Senior Sister Ji, she would not be so arrogant as to call him Junior Brother. In the entire Taixuan Realm, only Sword Master, who was from the same sect as Sword Master, had that qualification.
Gu Mo suppressed his emotions and explained, "The Righteous Alliance has encountered the disaster of 'broken heart and spirit', and I want to find Sword Ancestor to solve this matter."
"Break the spirit..." Ji Yue paused, then slowly raised her head, "I see, this is how it is. Now it all makes sense."
"Moreover, I'm worried that 'breaking the spirit' is just a superficial phenomenon, and they have deeper purposes." Gu Mo said in a serious tone.
Ji Yue's heart moved: "Could it be that..."
dong dong!
There was a sudden knock on the door, interrupting their conversation. Ji Yue looked towards the door with cloudy eyes.
"Come in."
squeak~
As the door was pushed open, a cheerful male voice was heard.
"Uncle Ji, you need to fix this door."
The man was seen wearing a black robe. The fabric was light and flowing, and it was embroidered with auspicious cloud patterns outlined in silver thread. It was faintly visible in the sunlight, further highlighting his tall and straight figure.
Her long hair was casually tied up, with a few strands falling in front of her forehead, adding a touch of unrestrained and uninhibited style.
It was not someone else, but Yan Ming, the head of the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall, who had been cheated out of more than 30 million contribution points by Li Ke and had been threatened by Chi Jiuyu not long ago.
Compared to his previous casual dressing, he now undoubtedly put a lot more effort into it, and he even used his magic power to grow long hair.
Yan Ming strode into the room and bowed: "Junior greets Senior Gu Mo, Uncle Ji."
Then he took a cushion and sat down.
"Long time no see, Yan Ming." Gu Mo said with a smile.
The two had fought side by side on the starry battlefield and got along very well.
Yan Ming also grinned: "It's been a long time, Senior Gu Mo, why don't we have a few drinks together later?"
"Next time."
He has something else to do this time.
"Why are you here?" Ji Yue asked.
Hearing the question, Yan Ming finally stopped smiling: "Master Bert asked me to tell you."
"Master already knows what happened to the Righteous Alliance, and has already rushed there with Senior Yuanjun."
"So, Senior Gu Mo can rest assured."
Sword Master already knows?
"The Sword Master's progress in cultivation is truly becoming more and more unfathomable." Gu Mo sighed sincerely.
When I touched the immortal gate, I already had a hint of immortality, although it was very faint, it was real.
The Sword Master was not good at deducing, but at this moment he could directly know the purpose of his trip...
Ok?
Yan Ming was a little confused when he heard this.
The master's message clearly stated that the master had sent a message to inform her of this matter. What does it have to do with the master's progress? …………
The Sword Master Hall is still the same dojo as before.
Bie Xue Ning sat in the middle of the dojo, holding a cell phone with a little yellow duck shell in her hand.
In the chat interface on the mobile phone screen, it was Xu Xing who asked
Guardian Sword Master: "Junior brother, I have sent a message to Yan Ming, asking him to inform fellow Daoist Gu Mo."
The fugitive ancestor: "Thank you, Senior Sister"
The fugitive ancestor: "But that traitor has a volatile personality, and Fellow Daoist Gu Mo is on good terms with him, so don't delay things."
Yan Ming is indeed like this. The better the relationship, the more unreasonable he becomes. That's why he was often punished by Xu Xing in the past.
Guardian Sword Master: "No, Junior Sister Ji is here too."
The fugitive ancestor: "Hmm?"
The fugitive ancestor: "Is there any connection between the two?"
Bie Xue Ning hesitated for a while, but finally decided not to lie to her junior brother.
The Guardian Sword Master: "Your disciple has been plotting against Junior Sister Ji."
It seemed that he was also shocked by the news, and it took a long time before there was any new news.
The fugitive ancestor: "Damn traitor!"
Before, I was having fun in the Righteous Alliance.
Well, the same thing happened to me.
The fugitive ancestor: "I will go back and deal with him after I have dealt with things here!"
Guardian Sword Master: "It's actually okay, Junior Brother, you don't have to be so angry/Little Yellow Duck patted his head"
After all, among so many disciples, only one is relatively unconventional.
And he only has one disciple so far, and that disciple is a traitor to the core!
Hey~
After sighing in her heart, Bie Xue Ning switched to the group chat.
At this time, the leaders in the group were also talking about Gu Mo.
The reason was that Gu Mo sent two of his juniors to Jishi Valley for treatment, and Dan Zu was very considerate and asked his eldest disciple to meet them.
But during the treatment, I heard something very interesting.
To sum up, the uncle married his niece, and then the brother came out of seclusion and found that the sister he liked and his uncle had a baby.
And that girl became the new junior sister, and now she is accompanying her senior brother to Jishigu for treatment.
Qi Zun: "It sounds complicated and hard to understand, but if you think about it carefully, it doesn't seem so abnormal/contemplating"
Danzu: “I agree”
Overlord: "Add one"
It is not too strange that practitioners at a high level have a long lifespan.
Qi Zun: “/touched”
Finally someone responded to him!
Meizu: "/picture"
The ancestor of charms started to act up again, still with that picture, and then quickly withdrew it.
Jian Zun: "Why don't you just not withdraw it? You've posted it so many times, your picture is almost patinaed/Little Yellow Duck despises"
Mei Zu: "Actually, after what you said last time, I took a lot of new photos, but I only plan to send them to you/Honest"
"Ah."
A poor way of provoking others.
Yuan Jun: "I can prove this, it is indeed true"
Sword Ancestor: “…”
The third update, please subscribe!!!
In that case, I'll post them together after I finish coding them.
However, because I am not good at writing, it should be posted in the afternoon or evening. I hope my readers will forgive me.
Sometimes I really envy those who type fast.
