After the ascent failed

Chapter 98 Li Zong
"You don't have to worry about this."

Seeing the two women's bewildered looks, Nie Ying explained.

"Although Immortal Alchemy Valley said that seniors at the basic level can also enter, the six sects have already agreed that the disciples at the two levels will do their own thing. Daoist monks are not allowed to attack the disciples of refining qi, not to mention that only the masters of the basic level are restricted in the valley. In order to break in, we can only be on the periphery during the Qi refining period."

"I see."

Nie Xin nodded.

Chen Xue was also relieved when she heard the words, and said excitedly: "It is said that there are countless elixir in the Immortal Refining Valley. If we can find adventures in it, maybe Xin'er and I can break through the tenth level of Qi Refining, and then take Master Ye's Foundation Establishment Pill." , we will have the opportunity to cultivate the Dao Foundation."

Today's Chen Xue has also broken through to the ninth level of Qi Refining, and when they were in Lindu City a few years ago, the family had already prepared Foundation Establishment Pills for them.

When Nie Ying heard this, the gloomy look disappeared in a flash.

Chen Xue and Nie Xin are the jewels in the family's palm, born with an aura that others can't match, but he can only rely on his own talent and hard work.

"If it wasn't for Ye Yun's interference in the pill meeting in Lingxian Mansion, I would have been able to buy the Foundation Establishment Pill without any problems. All of this today is thanks to him!"

Nie Ying said unwillingly.

For the past three years, he has been looking for opportunities to take revenge, but since the pill meeting, there has been no news about "Ye Yun".

At this moment, a bottle of elixir was handed to him.

"Xin'er, who is this?" Nie Ying looked at Nie Xin suspiciously.

This bottle of elixir contained a mid-grade foundation-building elixir.

"Father bought a total of two Foundation Establishment Pills. I only need one. Brother Nie Ying will take the rest." Nie Xin said.

Nie Ying's heart moved, but she didn't accept it.

"Brother Nie Ying, don't worry. If there is a chance to break through, one Foundation Establishment Pill is enough, but many are useless." Nie Xin knew what he was thinking, and forced the Foundation Establishment Pill over.

Nie Ying shook the pill in her hand, her eyes flickering.

"In that case, thank you very much."

He knew that taking this Foundation Establishment Pill meant that the distance between him and Nie Xin would be getting farther and farther in the future, but compared with his cultivation, Nie Ying would rather give up some things.

Nie Xin smiled, and walked with Chen Xue to the scripture storage pavilion.

Nie Ying frowned, her expression became more and more gloomy.

"Ye Yun, if it wasn't for your appearance, how could I, Nie Ying, have fallen to such a state. I will have to settle the debt with you sooner or later!"

With a cold snort in his heart, he silently followed.

"Qi Fei? He is here too."

The three of them were stepping into the Sutra Pavilion, when a figure walked in front of them, it was Qi Fei who had just come out of it.

"Qi Fei has already cultivated the Dao Foundation, and he is the direct disciple of Elder Lian Qing. We should not provoke him." Nie Ying frowned secretly, hinting to the two women beside her.

Nie Xin didn't speak, and brushed past him.

Qi Fei didn't even look at the three of them, and left the Sutra-Depository Pavilion without hesitation.

What happened just now, he was in a panic, how could he have the time to talk to them.

In fact, when Nie Xin first joined the Cangyuan Sect three years ago, Qi Fei asked him about the cause of Qi Mubai's death, but he had no choice but to let it go without any evidence.

Nie Xin and his party looked gloomy, but since the other party didn't take the initiative to make trouble, they were happy to relax.

……

Every elder of the Cangyuan Sect has an independent mountain gate to show their status.

Lian Qing's mountain gate is called Qingyun Peak, after Qi Fei became a direct disciple of his sect, he began to practice in its peak.

Back in the peak, he was walking into his residence when he saw a middle-aged monk in a black robe coming up to him.

"Qibo, is that you?"

Qi Fei frowned slightly, this person was his father Qi Ao's confidant.

"See Eldest Young Master." The middle-aged monk knelt on one knee and said politely.

"What's your purpose here?" Qi Fei waved lightly and walked into the room.

The middle-aged monk kept up, lowered his voice, and said, "If you go back to Eldest Young Master, this subordinate will bring a person today, Young Master, you might as well meet him."

"Oh, who is it? If there is nothing of value, I'm not interested." Qi Fei didn't care.

"Young master will know when you see it."

The middle-aged monk smiled mysteriously.

After all, he waved his hand towards a certain place, "Come out."

After the voice fell, a figure flashed out from a dark corner.

This person was wearing a wide hat, surrounded by a black gauze scarf, his face could not be seen clearly, but his figure was protruding forward and backward, and it could be vaguely seen that he was a woman who still had a charm.

Qi Fei raised his eyebrows and looked at the other person coldly. This person has no cultivation and is actually a mortal.

"Qi Bo, why did you bring a mortal here?" Qi Fei's expression turned cold.

"Don't worry, my lord, let's see her face first?" The middle-aged monk chuckled.

At the same time, the woman took off her bamboo hat, revealing a charming face.

Although she is over 30 years old, there is a mature temptation in her body, which makes people more excited the more they look at her.

It's just that at this moment, she looks very pale and weak.

"Young Master Qi, after a few years of separation, do you still remember my concubine?" the beautiful woman said quietly.

"You are Mrs. Zheng from the Nie family?" Qi Fei frowned.

"Exactly, but now I have nothing to do with the Nie family."

This beautiful woman is indeed Mrs. Zheng.

"That's right. It is said that you were expelled from the Nie family three years ago. Everyone thought you were dead, but they didn't expect you to be alive."

There was a trace of contempt in Qi Fei's eyes.

Mrs. Zheng used to be a Daoist cultivator at the Dao Foundation Realm, who was able to call the wind and rain in Lindu City, but now she has become a useless person, which is obviously related to the incident in the Nie family.

"That's right, I'm indeed still alive, but my cultivation base has been abolished, my lifespan has been greatly reduced, and life is already worse than death."

Mrs. Zheng showed hatred on her face.

She raised her head, looked at Qi Fei, and said: "I am here today to give you a favor."

"Really? That young master wants to hear it."

Qi Fei made a cup of tea, noncommittal.

Mrs. Zheng's eyes were gloomy, and she said: "Young Master Qi probably doesn't know the truth about your younger brother's murder, right?"

Qi Fei's expression froze.

He stared at Mrs. Zheng coldly: "What do you mean?"

Mrs. Zheng sneered, and said: "Back then when my younger brother was killed at Biyun Peak, everyone thought that this matter was related to Nie Xin, but there was no evidence. It's a pity that no one knew that the real murderer was someone else."

"What exactly do you want to say?" Qi Fei sat down and looked at Mrs. Zheng blankly.

"I can tell you who killed Qi Mubai." A deep look flashed in Mrs. Zheng's eyes.

Qi Fei didn't speak, and said after a while: "What conditions do you have?"

But Mrs. Zheng's answer next surprised him a bit.

"There are no conditions for being a concubine."

Mrs. Zheng shook her head, and said: "The murderer who killed Qi Mubai is someone I hate all my life. Now that my cultivation base has been abolished, there is not much time left. It is probably thanks to him that I fell into such a field, my son. If I can get rid of him, it can be regarded as solving the hatred in my heart!"

"Who is this person?" Qi Fei asked coldly.

Mrs. Zheng took out a white jade artifact from her waist, "Young master, if you want to know who killed your younger brother, you can tell by looking at this object."

Qi Fei looked gloomy, and poured spiritual power into it after taking the magic weapon.

The white mist in the void condensed and turned into a picture that slowly appeared, in which a figure drove a flying sword and passed through Qi Mubai's body.

"It's him!"

Seeing the face of the man with the sword, Qi Fei's face suddenly sank.

"Master Qi also recognizes this person?" Mrs. Zheng was surprised when she saw this.

"I've only met this person once, and I haven't had time to check his identity in the future. Who is he?" Qi Fei asked with cold eyes.

Mrs. Zheng's eyes flickered a few times, and she said: "This person's name is Ye Yun. He has been engaged to Nie Xin since childhood. When we learned that this son came with a token, my brother and I hired killers to kill him, but we don't know what happened to this person. He escaped a catastrophe, but in the end he became my confidant, if it wasn't for his appearance, how could my plan with Brother Ling fall by the wayside?"

"I'm not interested in your intrigue!" Qi Fei interrupted coldly, "I just want to know, is what you found in this magic weapon true?"

"The concubine is now a useless person, why do you think it is necessary for me to cheat?"

Madam Zheng laughed at herself.

"I quietly left this magic weapon by Nie Xin's side to monitor him. What Young Master Cai saw just now is exactly the scene where Brother Ling was killed that night."

Speaking of this, Mrs. Zheng was a little strange: "However, my son has practiced in the sect for many years. How have you seen this Ye Yun? Could it be that he is also in the Cangyuan sect at this moment?"

Qi Fei frowned, but did not answer.

But he was also very puzzled in his heart, the person he saw in this picture was not the boy he just met in the Tibetan scripture pavilion, the other party was obviously low-level, so it was logically impossible to kill Qi Mubai.

At this time, Mrs. Zheng seemed to remember something, and then she continued: "This person surnamed Ye is a low-level monk at the third level of Qi refining, but as far as I know, that kid seems to have a close relationship with Master Cheng Ye, and the other party even gave him a gift. I gave him an innate-level flying sword, so I think I was able to kill Lingdi because of it."

"Cheng Ye gave him a flying sword? If that's the case, it would be reasonable for Mu Bai to die in his hands." Qi Fei suddenly nodded.

"Mr. Qi, I only have this wish. If you can kill this man, I will be very grateful." Mrs. Zheng said resentfully.

"Ma'am, don't worry, this man killed my younger brother, how can there be any reason for Qi to let him go?"

The corner of Qi Fei's mouth twitched into a sneer.

After saying that, he waved his hand at Qi Bo, who understood and took Mrs. Zheng away.

"Ye Yun..."

After the two left, Qi Fei squeezed the white jade artifact, his eyes were cold.

……

At the same time, in Cangyuan Peak, Aoki was looking at Ye Chunyang in surprise.

"Fellow Daoist is going down the mountain?"

"That's right, I've been practicing hard in closed doors recently, and I have a premonition of a bottleneck, and I plan to go out for a trip to understand my state of mind." Ye Chunyang said calmly.

Coming here from the Sutra Pavilion, Ye Chunyang came to say goodbye.

"Alright, fellow daoist, I sent you as a guest, so you can come and go freely, and I won't stop you."

Aoki pondered for a moment, then nodded.

He asked again: "However, fellow Taoist, who traveled this time, when will he return?"

"Time undetermined."

Ye Chunyang paused for a moment, and then said: "However, during the time I'm going out, please ask fellow Taoists to take care of that girl Yao'er."

"Fellow Daoist, please don't worry, this is the Cangyuan Sect, the old man will definitely not let her suffer any harm." Aoki promised readily.

Ye Chunyang nodded slightly to express his gratitude.

There were quite a few people chasing and killing Ye Yao back then, so Ye Chunyang has never thought of a good way to house this girl, and now she is safe in the Cangyuan Sect.

Finally, after a few more words, Ye Chunyang left the sect in a low-key manner.
