Chapter 71: Maze

Along the way, the thick fog was pervasive and could not be dispelled. Yichen and Guisi were carefully exploring in front, but Fuling and the two sisters behind them had no sense of crisis at all, and were even talking and laughing.

"By the way, Junior Brother Xiao, on the way before coming here, I heard many people saying that you were related to the theft of books from various sects this time. We wanted to go forward to argue, but we couldn't win the argument. These people are really hateful. They don't know the facts at all. They just talk nonsense when they open their mouths. They are either brainless or blind."

"They have their mouths. Anyway, they don't have to be responsible for what they say in this era. Let them say whatever they want."

Yichen said lightly. Today, he has become indifferent. It doesn't matter what people say about him. But if someone dares to say something about the master, don't blame him for being rude.

Gui Si smiled and said, "Those people always think that Yi Chen covets their sect's skills and will learn the same as what they have learned. If one day Yi Chen uses a move that is not from Lord Yao Guang, those people will say that Yi Chen copied their skills. How ridiculous and naive. Those people may not think too highly of themselves. Even I have never paid any attention to their skills."

"Yeah, I agree with you. He opens his mouth all day long to catch wind and shadows, and always says that it is the same as this and that, like this and that, and he thinks it is rain. What he thinks is what it is. If he knows everything that others have painstakingly studied, then why hasn't he gone to heaven? It doesn't matter if he has no brains, the key is to come out and show off."

Fuling was quite indignant, but Gui Si smiled and said, "If you want to If you add a crime, you will find a pretext for it. "

Fuling looked at him, paused for a while, and then said, "Huh? I remember, why did you want to join Xuanqing Sect last time?"

Gui Si smiled and said, "I just wanted to participate in the Tianmen Martial Arts Competition."

"Ah?" Fuling bit her finger and thought for a while, and said, "I heard them say that you seemed to be driven out of Tianmen. What happened..."

"Forget it, the past is over, let's not talk about it."

"Oh oh..."

The group continued to walk forward for two hours. Yichen has studied the formations in recent years, and Gui Si has always been proficient in yin and yang and the five elements. With the close cooperation of the two, they broke through the mazes deliberately set up by someone in the mountain layer by layer, and even secretly helped many people from the trapped sects to escape.

Three days later, at noon that day, the fog covering the mountains finally dissipated temporarily. People from various sects came to the outside of a valley, but there were fog formations on all sides of the valley, and they could not get in anyway.

"That must be where the Lianhua Palace is."

People from various factions stood outside the valley, looking helpless. Although there were some famous seniors with high cultivation, they still couldn't break through the fog of the valley. Once night fell, it would be impossible to get in.

"What should we do? We must find a way to get in before dark..."

Taking advantage of the fog dispersing, everyone finally gathered together at this moment, not daring to disperse easily, otherwise they would be defeated one by one.

At this time, Xiao Yichen and others in the distance also came over. In addition to the three Fulings who had met before, there were two senior brothers from Tianquan Peak, plus Gui Sixue, a total of seven people.

Seeing them coming, someone here immediately recognized Xiao Yichen. An old man in green narrowed his eyes and said, "Xiao Xiaoyou, you are here. Did you also come through the fog before?"

"Of course! Otherwise, did we fly here?" Fuling heard his suspicious tone, and her face suddenly lost its good expression.

The old man in green was still full of doubt. After a while, he asked again, "Xiao Xiaoyou, can you break through this white mist maze?"

"Let's give it a try."

Yichen and Guisi stepped forward and began to condense their magic under the attention of everyone. However, they could not break through the most powerful layer of the maze. After a long time, the crowd gradually began to discuss.

The old man in green who had previously suspected him sneered and said, "Little friend Xiao, I think it's better to forget it. If you know how to break this maze, then open it. Don't let me wait here in vain."

"What do you mean!"

Fuling's pretty face immediately turned frosty. This sentence clearly meant that Junior Brother Xiao was colluding with evil people. She couldn't help but get annoyed. She opened her eyes and said, "We respect you as our elders, so we won't argue with you, but you'd better show some evidence when you speak. Don't be sarcastic and slanderous here!"

As soon as these words came out, the surrounding discussions became louder. Fuling was so angry that she was fuming. She said angrily, "You people really take your kindness for granted! Your sect's collection of books was stolen. Originally It has nothing to do with Junior Brother Xiao. Junior Brother Xiao kindly helped you find it, but you are not grateful and are still talking nonsense here. If it weren't for Junior Brother Xiao and Brother Si Que's help to break through the strange fog outside, do you think you could have come in so easily? "

Fuling became more and more angry. At this time, Gui Si Que came over and smiled lightly, "Forget it, Junior Sister Fuling, don't be angry. Since someone here doesn't like us, let's go. After that, she looked at Yichen, and the two of them didn't say much and immediately went away.

Along the way, Fuling was still a little angry, frowning and said, "Those people really don't know what's good for them. Otherwise, Junior Brother Xiao, Brother Si Que, let's just go back. What does it have to do with us if they do anything here?"

Yi Chen frowned and said nothing. He came to a canyon, looked around, and looked at Gui Si again. The two of them thought about whether they could break the maze from other places. The reason why he did this was not to make himself unhappy, but because of his master. He didn't want to ruin his master's reputation because of some people's gossip. After all, people's words are scary. These people say whatever they think of and never think about the problem carefully.

Until dusk fell, Yi Chen and Gui Si failed to break the maze. They couldn't break it even a little bit. The last layer of the maze was too powerful. Unless Tian Ji Zun came in person, I'm afraid no one could break it.

At this moment, on the other side of the valley, seeing the sunset, the fog in the mountains gradually enveloped them again. People from the major sects couldn't help but start to panic. Once night fell, they were surrounded by fog. They couldn't get out no matter how they walked, and they couldn't tell the enemy's position. It was very scary at that time.

"What should we do now? It's getting dark soon. How about we withdraw first? Otherwise, the people from Lianhua Palace will come out to attack at night, and the consequences will be disastrous."

The elders of several sects gathered together at this moment, their brows furrowed deeper and deeper. One of them shook his head and said, "No, we finally got in. If we withdraw, they may not be able to find us tomorrow."

"Then what should we do..."

Everyone was at a loss. At this moment, suddenly a man flew into the air, holding a red fairy sword in his hand. He was furious and shouted to the valley, "Demons from Lianhua Palace! If you don't open the maze, don't blame me for being rude!"

After that, he slashed towards the valley with a sword, and the sword light immediately broke through the air, like a thousand-foot-long rosy cloud, illuminating the entire mountain in an instant.

"Boom!"

With a loud noise, the sword slashed on the maze, and the whole mountain trembled violently. However, the sword energy was like a stone sinking into the sea. It was slashed in the misty valley, and there was no echo at all.

Seeing this, many other people also stepped forward and used their magical powers. For a while, the sword energy above the valley was seen running wildly, and the magic weapon was shining, almost destroying the world. However, after half an incense stick, no matter how everyone cast spells, they could not break the maze at all. The fog dispersed and gathered again, and it became thicker and thicker.

"What should I do..."

Seeing that the last ray of sunset was about to sink into the mountains, the people of each faction were getting more and more anxious. Now there was no way forward or backward. Once it got dark, they might be in trouble, and the consequences would be disastrous.

At this moment, a loud laughter of a woman was heard from the valley. "Hahaha... You have tried for a long time. How is it? Can you break the defense formation of my Lianhua Palace? Do you want to try again?"

"It's the witch of Lianhua Palace!"

Many people outside were shocked and took out their magic swords. They were all as if they were facing a great enemy, and their faces became tense.

An old man in purple stepped forward and said to the valley, "The major sects in our northern region and the Lianhua Palace have always kept their distance from each other. Why did you steal the books from the sects more than half a month ago? Isn't that a taboo for both the righteous and the evil?"

"Hahaha!"

The woman's laughter came from the valley again, but no one could hear the direction. The woman said, "Yes, the books of your sects are indeed here. What do you think? Do you have the ability to take them back?"

"You! Witch! Do you want to be like those demon sects and be enemies of the righteous in our world? If you know what's good for you, return the books quickly! Otherwise, one day my sect will come together and raze this place to the ground!"

For a while, everyone was angry, and only heard the valley A faint laugh from the woman came from the valley again. "Okay, then my Lianhua Palace will wait for the day when you come together. Goodbye."

"Wait!"

The purple-clothed old man's face changed, and he immediately stepped forward and said, "Don't be upset, girl. We are not going to be enemies with Lianhua Palace. We just don't know why you want to take away the books of various sects for no reason? I think it's not because of the various sects' skills."

"It's good for you to know. The master doesn't look down on your so-called profound and profound Taoism. Hehe..."

The woman's giggle came from the valley again. When everyone heard this, although they were extremely angry, they didn't dare to provoke her anymore. Otherwise, if the other party turned around and left, how could they get back the books of their own sect? What if the master of Lianhua Palace gave their books and profound skills to the several demon sects of the Demon Heaven Sect in anger? So at this moment, they could only talk to her kindly, and didn't dare to say anything about whether she was a demon or not.

The purple-clothed old man stepped forward and said, "Since my collection of books is of no benefit to the owner of Lianhua Palace, I wonder what the lady will do to return the collection to us?"

The woman in the valley smiled and said, "It's not difficult to get your collection of books back, but the master said that she only saw one person. Only if that person comes to my Lianhua Palace in three days, the master will let him take back your collection of books."

When the people from all factions heard this, they were even more confused. The owner of Lianhua Palace was so cunning and weird. What tricks did he want to play?

The purple-clothed old man thought carefully and said slowly, "I wonder who the person the owner of Lianhua Palace wants to see is?"

The valley woman smiled and said, "That person is Xiao Shaoxia who was angered by you not long ago. You can find a way to get him back. If the master hasn't seen him after three days, then you can go to the Demon Heaven Sect and Xiaoyao Tower to get your skills back. Well, that's all, goodbye."
