Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning

Chapter 406 Youth Tour 5

When they arrived at Zhengyang Palace, Shen Manqing and Yin Changge had to tell the headmaster of Zhengyang Palace, Taoist Jinxu, everything that Jiang Xinxin and Zuo Qingci had said on the way. Taoist Jinxu became heavy-hearted after hearing this. As a man who had been mediating between various forces in the martial arts world for decades, he would understand the dangerous situation of Zhengyang Palace better than the two young disciples.

However, he thought to himself that he still had a very important trump card in his hand, which was the ability to communicate with Emperor Xiaoming, so after a brief period of worry, he relaxed again. At least nothing would happen to Zhengyang Palace when he was the headmaster, and it was indeed he who led Zhengyang Palace to glory.

Thinking of Su Xuan, whose life or death was unknown, Taoist Jinxu couldn't help but think of Su Yunluo, the disciple with excellent aptitude who took Su Xuan away. Then, looking at Yin Changge and Shen Manqing, who had already made a name for themselves, he felt even happier.

Su Yunluo secretly went up Tiandu Peak and prepared to steal Heweibai from the Treasure Pavilion in Zhengyang Palace, but she didn't expect to bump into Zuo Qingci when she was acting at night. In the critical moment, she could only knock Zuo Qingci unconscious and told him not to get involved in her affairs. Originally, Zuo Qingci wanted to tell her that Jiang Xinxin had also come to Zhengyang Palace, but he didn't have the chance to speak.

Su Yunluo's failed attack had already alerted the enemy. Although Zhenren Jinxu did not take any other action, he temporarily changed the prize of the sword test competition to Heweibai. It can be seen that he knew that the person who stole the things before was Su Yunluo, so he wanted to take this opportunity to lure Su Yunluo out, and it would be best if he could find Su Xuan through the clue of Su Yunluo, deal with Su Xuan according to the rules of the sect, and completely expose the incident of that year.

However, Jiang Xinxin herself sensed the peace locket and went to find Su Yunluo. He was hiding in a dilapidated temple behind Zhengyang Palace. In the past, there were many Taoist temples on Tiandu Peak because the imperial palace was on the other side. After the rise of Zhengyang Palace, almost all other forces were squeezed out, and there were many abandoned Taoist temples on the mountain.

Su Yunluo was very happy when he saw Jiang Xinxin, but he felt guilty at the same time: "Master, I don't mean to disbelieve you. It's just that my master has seen many doctors over the years, and now these few miraculous medicines are his last chance..."

Jiang Xinxin understood Su Yunluo's thoughts and concerns: "You are right to worry. I have said before that I am not good at medicine. It is a very good plan that you can remember to ask me to see your master on a whim."

Su Yunluo got rid of the embarrassment and guilt on his face, but he kept the matter in mind, and planned to do something to apologize to Jiang Xinxin once he got the Heweibai.

Jiang Xinxin took out a bottle of Pei Yuan Dan and handed it to Su Yunluo, "You have been traveling here since you came back from the Western Regions and haven't had a good rest. You haven't even taken care of your injuries properly. This is Pei Yuan Dan. As the name suggests, it has the effect of strengthening the body and replenishing the essence. Take one pill every day to at least replenish your vitality."

Su Yunluo felt that she needed something like this but never thought of accepting Jiang Xinxin's gift. She still owed him a favor, so how could she take Jiang Xinxin's things under such circumstances?

Su Yunluo was unwilling to accept it, so Jiang Xinxin had no choice but to take it back. Everyone has their own style and personality. She came to this world accidentally and planned to give some help to these sons of luck in order to win the favor of Tiandao, but they refused seriously, so she couldn't force it.

Jiang Xinxin talked about something else: "You tried to steal the Crane Tail White last night but failed, but your whereabouts have been exposed. Today, Jin Xu Zhenren used the Crane Tail White as a prize for the sword-testing competition, with the purpose of luring you out. You, or your master, have some secrets that Jin Xu Zhenren is very concerned about, so he will definitely not let you get the Crane Tail White, so you must be mentally prepared for this."

Su Yunluo knew this without Jiang Xinxin reminding her. No one understood what kind of person Jinxu Zhenren was better than Su Yunluo. Even though she could not understand the purpose of the people around her when she was a child, she was grown up now and had been in the martial arts world for many years. If she still did not understand Jinxu Zhenren's fear and vigilance towards her master Su Xuan, then she would have lived in vain!

On the other side, Zuo Qingci was talking to Wen Siyuan about Heweibai, "I know she wants Heweibai, and I have arranged someone, someone who can achieve her goal without me having to pay."

Wen Siyuan was really curious and guessed casually: "The person you are talking about doesn't look like Taoist Yuan Xin, because you said you won't pay."

Zuo Qingci chuckled: "Of course not Taoist Priest Yuan Xin. Taoist Priest Yuan Xin's origins are a mystery, but everyone knows that she should come from a very secretive yet prosperous secret family."

Wen Siyuan also agreed with this point: "The most important thing is that this Taoist priest has learned a lot and can see through the rules of the court, but he is a little ignorant of worldly affairs."

Zuo Qingci said with a hint of meaning: "How do you know that Taoist Yuan Xin is ignorant of worldly affairs or simply doesn't care about what others think?"

Wen Siyuan laughed: "As expected, you are still better at judging people."

The person Zuo Qingci found was the ghost boy, one of the three demons in the Snow Region who had protected the prince of Weinan, Duan Yan, when he fled with the map. Now the ghost boy was the only one left among the three demons in the Snow Region. Zuo Qingci had offered to help cure the ghost boy in exchange for letting him control him once. Now that Su Yunluo wanted medicine, Zuo Qingci arranged for the ghost boy to come all the way.

Su Yunluo was used to being alone, so even though Jiang Xinxin said she could help, she hurried to Zhengyang Palace again to inquire about Heweibai's news. However, she failed again and only got the news that Heweibai was being kept personally by Xiu Yugu, the elder of Zhengyang Palace.

Wen Siyuan went to the ruined temple where Su Yunluo was temporarily hiding, but found no one. He guessed that Su Yunluo could not help but take action again, so he quickly passed the message to Zuo Qingci.

Zuo Qingci was very anxious and only had time to ask the ghost boy to go to the Mu Mansion to make some noise to share the pressure with Su Yunluo.

The ghost boy came to the Mu Mansion, but did not see Mu Ying, the genius who came to the Mu Mansion to participate in the sword-testing competition. Instead, he first met Shen Manqing who came to talk to Mu Ying.

The ghost boy unceremoniously took Shen Manqing hostage in exchange for Heweibai. However, Xiu Yugu and Mu Ying kept changing the subject and had no intention of exchanging Heweibai. Seeing this, the ghost boy could only take Shen Manqing away temporarily and came to his old residence.

After walking through the Red Flame Sand, although Shen Manqing didn't understand why the Ghost Boy didn't kill her immediately, she didn't have a good impression of the Ghost Boy. So when she saw the Ghost Boy finding a handkerchief in this shabby and deserted room, her heart was beating fast.

The ghost boy picked up the handkerchief and became much gentler. He raised his hand inadvertently to cover Shen Manqing's eyes, but found that Shen Manqing with her eyes covered was very similar to his lover.

The ghost boy couldn't help but ask Shen Manqing in a deep voice: "If someone betrays you, and the other person is an unforgivable bad guy, will you forget him?"

Shen Manqing racked her brains but couldn't figure out why the ghost boy was acting so abnormally. She was afraid of angering him, so she tried to calm herself down and said, "I hold grudges, so I won't forget it."

The ghost boy asked again: "What if the other party uses death to prove that he knows he is wrong?"

Shen Manqing felt somewhat relieved and replied, "Then I will live well and remember the kindness of the other person."

Then Shen Manqing asked tentatively: "Is it a bit strange for you to ask me these questions, or have you done something wrong and let someone down?"
