Chapter 890

In the middle of a mountain covered by green trees, there was a huge peach tree beside a small lake. At this moment, thousands of pink peach blossoms were blooming on the peach tree.

Under the peach tree, a middle-aged man in white was holding a long sword and waving it slowly. His sword moves were so slow that it was like an old man training in the morning. His footsteps were also ordinary. His footsteps were not light nor heavy, just like an ordinary person walking.

However, every time the long sword danced, there would be an undercurrent in the air that would follow the long sword's movements. Although many of the fallen petals under the peach trees did not follow the movements of the person's footsteps, they were eager to give it a try as the long sword stretched and retracted.

Not long later, the middle-aged man's sword moves were so slow that it was as heavy as ten thousand catties. The surrounding fallen petals gradually jumped and were unwilling to turn into spring mud. They danced in the air following the changes of the long sword.

This was still not considered shocking. After a long time, even more peach blossoms flew down from the peach tree and joined the dance. Moreover, there were more and more of them, and in a moment, the hundreds of peach blossoms condensed into the shape of a person and rapidly danced in the air!

Suddenly, the middle-aged man shouted and pointed the long sword in his hand into the lake. The human-shaped peach blossoms flew into the lake. Before the peach blossoms could get close, a loud sound came from the lake. A huge wave of several feet high was created by the long sword and the peach blossoms were directly smashed into the lake. When the lake was covered by the falling petals, the middle-aged man slowly withdrew his long sword and smiled as he muttered to himself, "The sword light is restrained and returned to its original state. As the saying goes, the shapeless sword qi can harm people without them noticing!

I have practiced for many years. I did not expect that I would succeed in this disheartened and lazy state!

Sigh! "

The middle-aged man's forehead was full and the ground was round. He had a graceful appearance. Wasn't he the eldest disciple of Rui Jin Palace, Xi Mujun?

"The falling flowers are yearning for love, but the heartless flowing water is heartless ~" Looking at the countless peach blossoms floating in the lake, Xi Mu Jun could not help but feel sad. A trace of hatred appeared in his eyes as he shook his long sword. His figure rose from the ground and swiftly rushed down the mountain like a horse!

As for the dozen or so disciples of the Rui Jin Palace, when they saw Zhang Xiaohua heading towards a fork in the road, they also turned around and patted their horses to head in another direction.

After a short time, one of the disciples looked back and saw that they were far away from the fork in the road and whispered, "Junior Brother Yang, this Ren Xiaoyao … how can he be so bold?

First, he offended Fiery Palace's Zhang Pinger, infuriating Senior Martial Brother Yue to the point that he wanted to go down the mountain and kill that bastard. Then, he hooked up with Senior Martial Sister Zi Xia of Mo Xuan Palace and drove Senior Martial Brother Xi away. It's already been more than a month and there's still no trace of him. "

Junior Brother Yang smiled and said, "This is where he's smart, stepping on people one by one. However, we're stepping on our own Senior Martial Brothers, while he's stepping on our Senior Martial Sisters."

"Tsk tsk, I also want to step on them, but there's no Junior Martial Sister for me to step on!"

"By the way, Junior Brother Yang, didn't Senior Martial Brother Yue say that he wanted to go down the mountain to kill that bastard? Why did he disappear?

Tell me, did Senior Martial Brother Yue go or not? "

"Aren't you talking nonsense? If Senior Martial Brother Yue went, how could that bastard survive?

How could there be a story of him charging into the Remnant Fragrance with a sword?

Wouldn't Senior Martial Sister Zi Xia and Senior Martial Brother Xi be on the same level? "

"However, Senior Martial Brother Yue went out in a huff and then disappeared without a trace. Could it be …"

"Could it be what?" A voice came from the side.

The disciple was startled. When he looked up, he revealed an awkward smile and bowed, "Senior Martial Brother Xi, you're back!"

"En, I'm back. What did you just say?

Say it again. "

"This …" The disciple hesitated. "I said that Senior Martial Brother Yue went out in a huff after talking to Junior Martial Brother Yang and then disappeared without a trace. Maybe … maybe Ren Xiaoyao … did something evil to him. That might not be the case!"

The disciple gritted his teeth and finished his sentence.

"Eh?

Third Martial Brother Yue hasn't returned yet? "

Xi Mujun asked curiously. Then, he said, "En, you're right. It makes a lot of sense. However, why didn't you say anything when I asked you earlier?"

The disciple said innocently, "Senior Martial Brother Xi, this … this is just nonsense from me. Ren Xiaoyao's martial arts are far inferior to Senior Martial Brother Yue's. How could he do something evil to Senior Martial Brother Yue?"

"That might not be the case. Ren Xiaoyao is extremely strong. If Third Martial Brother Yue didn't notice …" Xi Mujun said with a smile without looking away.

"Yes, Senior Martial Brother Xi is right. With Ren Xiaoyao's strength, even Senior Martial Brother Hu would be defeated. It's hard to say if Senior Martial Brother Yue was careless." The disciple smiled apologetically.

"Alright, remember this. When I look for you in the future, don't forget that there's still you."

"Yes, Senior Martial Brother Xi. I understand." Junior Martial Brother Yang nodded.

"Alright, go ahead. Look for me when you're back."

Xi Mujun stood up and was about to leave. However, he thought of something and asked, "Why did you suddenly think of Ren Xiaoyao?"

The disciple pointed at the fork in the distance. "Senior Martial Brother Xi, we bumped into Ren Xiaoyao at the fork in the road. From what he said, he actually received an order from Lord Hierarch to go to the Ruins of Purification. Hehe, but he took a wrong turn and went that way!" Xi Mujun nodded.

"Yes, I understand. Lord Hierarch's orders must be important. That slow-witted fellow actually lost his way. Sigh, it's obvious that he's not a diligent person. Forget it. Since Lord Hierarch thinks highly of him, what does it have to do with us?

You guys go ahead. I'm about to return to Rui Jin Hall. Oh right, is everything alright in the hall? "

"It's nothing. Senior Martial Brother Xi, you should head back first. Lord Hierarch has been nagging about it for a long time."

"Alright, I'll head back now.

Go ahead. "

After Xi Mujun finished speaking, he executed his movement technique and headed toward the fork in the road.

When he reached the fork in the road, he opened his eyes and ears. When he saw that there was no one around, he bent down and headed in the direction of Zhang Xiaohua.

Just as Xi Mujun was heading toward Zhang Xiaohua's fork in the road, Zhang Xiaohua's heart skipped a beat. Her left hand formed a seal and it was the technique of the 'Hand of Karma' from the Heavenly Dao.

However, the technique was extremely profound. During the month when Zhang Xiaohua was recuperating on Lingering Fragrance Peak, she had been trying to comprehend it. However, she was still unable to comprehend it. She didn't even gain the slightest bit from it. She could only use her left hand to form the technique.

Zhang Xiaohua wasn't surprised when she saw that the technique on her left hand was ineffective. The Dao of Karma was so profound that the technique derived from it was naturally of a high level. In Zhang Xiaohua's opinion, even the technique of the Innate Divine Restriction couldn't be compared to it. How could she possibly comprehend it in just a month?

However, Zhang Xiaohua also knew that although her Hand of Karma couldn't calculate the reason, since her heart was moved, something unfavorable must have happened to her. The most important thing was to take precautions first.

Speaking of precautions, Zhang Xiaohua unconsciously took out the small shield in her arms. Other than the jade piece, Zhang Xiaohua's defense was also the robe left behind by Elder Huo. Speaking of the robe, Zhang Xiaohua was also depressed. It wasn't right to say that the robe was useless. During this expedition, Zhang Xiaohua didn't dare to use the Immortal Dao technique. Along the way, she was attacked by the disciples of Rui Jin Palace. She didn't know how many long swords had pierced her body. If it weren't for the robe, she would have been injured long ago. However, this robe was still on her body and she didn't know how to activate it. Along the way, although the sword tips were blocked, a lot of the force was transmitted to her body. Zhang Xiaohua's serious injuries were mostly due to this robe. Presumably, this kind of defensive celestial tool could only resist the attack of Genuine Qi. It was useless against pure force attacks.

Of course, the most important thing was that this robe was close-fitting. If the defense was ineffective, it would directly hit Zhang Xiaohua's body. She would be the one suffering the pain. Therefore, Zhang Xiaohua still hoped to refine this small shield so that she could use it in the future!

In front of Mo Xuan Palace, Zhang Xiaohua had witnessed Nun Jing Yi's powerful divine sense. Although he didn't know what level of Qi Refining or Foundation Establishment Nun Jing Yi was, just her divine sense alone was more powerful than Zhang Xiaohua's. How would he dare to show any signs of being an Immortal Dao practitioner in Mo Xuan Palace?

Only after leaving Lingering Fragrance Peak did he dare to have any ideas about this small shield.

Huanhuan's legs were strong. By the time the sky turned dark, they had already traveled a long distance and arrived at a mountain forest. Zhang Xiaohua occasionally looked back with his divine sense and attention. He looked left and right, but there was nothing out of the ordinary. On the mountain path, they met a few outer disciples. When they saw Zhang Xiaohua's clothes, they knew that he was an inner disciple. They were all very respectful and didn't dare to be negligent. How could it be as unexpected as Zhang Xiaohua thought?

After entering the mountain forest, Zhang Xiaohua jumped down from Huanhuan's back. He patted Huanhuan's protruding horn and took the Great Wisdom Sword with him. When he came out, he was in a valley.

Looking around, Zhang Xiaohua didn't find a good place to hide. He sat down cross-legged and released his divine sense. He threw the small shield in his hand and it floated in the air.

The restriction in the small shield was still there. As long as his divine sense tried to force its way in, it would immediately be ejected.

He closed his eyes and pondered for a while. Zhang Xiaohua formed a spell with his hands and used a few common sacrificial spells from the 《Refining the World》 to see if it would be useful.

Unfortunately, when the spells entered, it was like a clay ox entering the sea. There wasn't any sound. The small shield was still floating in the air, and only a vague outline could be seen.

Zhang Xiaohua sighed. Just as he was about to put the small shield back into his money pouch, his heart suddenly stirred. Another extremely familiar hand seal appeared in his left and right hands. Once the True Qi was absorbed, Zhang Xiaohua waved his right hand and hit the small shield. Suddenly, the small shield moved slightly and even emitted an extremely faint fiery red brilliance.

"Eh?"

Zhang Xiaohua was shocked. He thought to himself, "This … the sacrificial spell of the Eight Trigrams Purple Gold Furnace. How can it be used to refine this small shield?"

It turned out that the spell Zhang Xiaohua used was the sacrificial spell he learned from the Eight Trigrams Purple Gold Furnace.

"Could it be that this small shield was also refined by an expert of the Incense Cult, just like the Eight Trigrams Purple Gold Furnace?" Zhang Xiaohua guessed.
