However, Xia Furong's trip to southern Xinjiang and the subsequent transactions she may propose are full of unknown risks. This woman has a deep mind and cannot be trusted.
While he was thinking, he walked through a Spiritual Plant garden full of spiritual energy.
The garden is full of exotic flowers and grasses, filled with spiritual mist, and the scenery is extremely beautiful.
Just when he was about to walk out of Spiritual Plant Park and step onto the main road leading to the teleportation array--
"Ouch!"
A cry of pain and anger sounded!
A Dao Body figure was caught off guard and rushed out from a side road, bumping into Gu Sheng who was concentrating on thinking!
Gu Sheng's body swayed slightly, then he steadied his steps.
But the Dao Body figure screamed in surprise, staggered back after being hit, and almost fell down!
Gu Sheng looked intently and saw that the person who bumped into him was a young woman wearing the attire of a true disciple of the Holy Academy.
The woman has a graceful figure, a beautiful face, and a cool and heroic temperament.
At this moment, she was covering her smooth forehead with one hand, where a small bump was obviously bulging, her beautiful eyebrows were frowning, and there was pain and anger in her eyes.
"You! Don't you have eyes when you walk?!"
The woman raised her head and looked at Gu Sheng with a sullen voice.
But when her eyes touched Gu Sheng's Zhang Ping's calm face, and the silent shadow behind him that exuded a heart-stopping aura, the anger in her eyes solidified instantly, replaced by surprise and... fear?
Gu Sheng also saw the other party clearly. This woman's aura is not weak, she has reached the sixth level of the sect realm!
And looking at his clothes and the authentic jade plaque hanging around his waist, it is obvious that his status in the Holy Court is not low.
"Sorry."
Gu Sheng The sound is dull.
"I was distracted just now and didn't pay attention."
The woman covered her forehead, looked at Gu Sheng's unruffled eyes, and felt the unfathomable aura on Ying's body, and most of the anger in her heart dissipated.
She put down her hand, revealing the clear red and swollen bump on her forehead, and her tone softened.
"That's all, I was walking in a hurry and didn't look at the road.
Be more careful next time."
After she finished speaking, she stopped staying, hurriedly walked around Gu Sheng, and left quickly, her figure quickly disappearing in the mist of Spiritual Plant Park.
Gu Sheng looked at the direction the woman was leaving and frowned slightly. This woman... seemed familiar?
But I couldn't remember where I had seen it.
Moreover, the fear she showed in that quick glance just now seemed not just because of the shadow's aura...
He shook his head and stopped thinking about it. Right now, there were more important things to do.
He stepped forward and continued walking in the direction of the teleportation array.
The stalker in the dark is still far away, like a lurking poisonous snake.
On the path outside the sanctuary Spiritual Plant, Gu Sheng looked at the back of the young Jurchen who left in a hurry, frowning slightly.
The moment they collided, he clearly felt the tenacious counter-shock power that instantly erupted in the opponent's body!
That is definitely not the physical strength that an ordinary sect-level sixth-level warrior can possess! It is even... faintly close to the level of the Golden Body Realm Body Cultivator!
Moreover, that beautiful and heroic face always made him feel familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before, but he couldn't remember it for a while.
What caught his attention even more was the flicker of fear in the other person's eyes when he saw him, which was not just due to the shadow... There seemed to be something else hidden deep in his eyes.
"Xiao Mengling..."
Gu Sheng silently recited the name revealed on the jade plaque on the opponent's waist just now.
There are many true disciples in the Holy Academy, but he doesn't know them all. This girl seems to be a little special.
He shook his head and suppressed these thoughts temporarily.
Right now, there are more important things to do. Xiao Beixuan's bounty is like a hanging sword, and the people around him may be in danger at any time.
Gu Yuanyuan is protected by Miss Tantai and is temporarily safe.
But Gu Ningshuang... she is practicing alone in the Xuanmen of the Holy Academy. Although she is taken care of by Shen Qingtian, Shen Qingtian is in abnormal condition now and may not be reliable!
Ning Shuang must be relocated to a safer place!
With a determined mind, Gu Sheng stopped staying, determined the direction, and walked quickly towards Shen Qingtian's residence in the Holy Courtyard.
Shadow is like the most loyal shadow, following silently.
At the same time, deep in the sanctuary, there was a quiet valley shrouded in lavender spiritual mist.
Xiao Mengling covered the still somewhat red and swollen bump on her forehead, and quickly walked through the valley entrance barricade, arriving in front of an elegant courtyard nestled among Purple Bamboo Forest. The courtyard door was ajar, and she pushed it open and entered.
The courtyard is quiet and elegant, with bluestone paving and several clusters of purple bamboo swaying in the wind.
A beautiful woman wearing an elegant moon-white dress with waterfall-like silver hair was sitting in front of a stone table in the courtyard, writing a painting.
Her temperament is gentle and quiet, as if she is integrated with the surrounding environment, but she also has an indescribable depth and majesty.
"Master!"
Xiao Mengling came forward and saluted respectfully, his voice filled with grievance.
"The disciple is back."
The beautiful silver-haired woman did not raise her head, her eyes were still focused on the drawing paper in front of her, and her pen was sketching the outline of the mountains and rivers.
Her voice is gentle, like a clear spring flowing.
"How is your understanding of the first three volumes of the Heart Method going?"
"Returning to Master, I have thoroughly understood the essence of the first three volumes of the Heart Dharma."
Xiao Mengling said quickly, then frowned slightly.
"It's just that... the "Return to Tibet" chapter in the fourth volume is so mysterious and difficult that disciple... disciple still has difficulty understanding its meaning."
"Return to Tibet..."
The beautiful silver-haired woman paused her pen slightly, then continued to draw, her voice still calm.
"Be sharp and sharp, and return to nature. You can't force it, just let nature take its course. When the opportunity comes, it will fall into place."
"Yes, disciple, keep this in mind."
Xiao Mengling responded respectfully, but there was still confusion in his eyes.
At this time, the beautiful silver-haired woman put down her paintbrush, picked up a wet silk handkerchief on the stone table, and gently wiped the ink stains on her fingertips.
She then raised her head and looked at Xiao Mengling, her eyes gentle and deep.
"What's wrong with your forehead?"
Xiao Mengling touched the small bag subconsciously, with an embarrassed look on his face.
"Just now... just now I bumped into someone outside the Spiritual Plant park."
"Oh?"
The beautiful silver-haired woman had a faint smile in her eyes, as if she had already understood everything.
She did not ask further questions, but gently tapped the corner of the newly completed painting with her clean fingertips.
On the drawing paper, the phantom of the mountains and rivers originally sketched instantly became solid!
What's even more surprising is that on the bank of the mountains and rivers, a tall and tall figure gradually became clear from the virtual reality!
That figure had a stern face and sharp eyes, and it was none other than Gu Sheng!
"Master! This... this is?!"
Xiao Mengling's eyes widened when she saw the person in the painting, and she exclaimed! Isn't this the person who bumped into her just now?!
"I watched the stars last night, and I occasionally had a feeling. I could get a glimpse of the secrets of heaven through dreaming."
The beautiful silver-haired woman's voice was calm, as if she was talking about a trivial matter.
"I saw that you seemed to have some connection with this person, so I drew it casually."
She looked at the figure Gu Sheng in the painting, her eyes deep and unpredictable.
"This child... has a strange destiny, entangled with cause and effect, and is not something that belongs in the pond. Whether it is a blessing or a disaster to interact with him is not yet known. Meng Ling, you need to... pay more attention."
Xiao Mengling looked at the lifelike Gu Sheng in the painting, and remembered the terrifying physical power coming from the other party during the brief contact just now, and those calm but seemingly penetrating eyes, and a turmoil arose in his heart!
The master actually used the dream to get a glimpse of the secrets of heaven, and even specially drew this person!
Who is he?!
"Master... disciple..."
Xiao Mengling feels hard to calm down.
The silver-haired beautiful woman gently raised her hand to stop her words.
She turned her gaze to the outside of the courtyard, as if penetrating through layers of space and landing in some distant direction.
"Tomorrow, a secret realm will be opened. Deep in the secret realm, there is a fragment of the 'Mountain River Society Diagram' left by senior Boundless Sacred Land. This picture may be helpful for me to understand the chapter of 'Returning to the Hidden Treasures'."
She looked at Xiao Mengling.
"Tomorrow at midnight, that girl Fuu will lead someone to open the secret realm. You go with her and wait for the opportunity... to retrieve the fragment of the scroll for my master."
"Mountain River Society Diagram Fragments? Senior Sister Xia opened the secret realm?"
Xiao Mengling was shocked and responded quickly.
"Yes! Disciple must do his best!"
"Just do your best."
The beautiful silver-haired woman nodded slightly, her eyes returned to the figure of Gu Sheng in the painting, her voice was ethereal.
"The picture scroll has its own place, forcing it... may not be a blessing."
Xiao Mengling seemed to understand but didn't dare to ask more questions. He could only respond respectfully.
The Xuanmen area of the Holy Academy is the residence of Shen Qingtian.
This is a quiet and elegant small courtyard. There are several spiritual bamboos planted in the courtyard, and a small pavilion stands among the bamboo shadows.
At this moment, three women were sitting around the stone table in the pavilion.
Shen Qingtian is still dressed in green clothes, with a bronze mask covering his face, and his breath is calm, but there seems to be an imperceptible fatigue between his brows.
Gu Ningshuang put on the simple and elegant clothes of a disciple of the Holy Academy. He has a slim figure and a gentle and cold temperament. He is whispering something to Shen Qingtian.
Qin Yurou was also present, with a worried look on his face, and he would add a few words from time to time.
"Sister Qing Tan, is Senior Brother Shen... really okay?"
Gu Ningshuang frowned slightly, her voice filled with worry.
"After he came out of isolation, I only met him once, and I felt... his whole person had changed, he felt so strange..."
Shen Qingtian was silent for a moment, and the voice under the bronze mask was deep.
"I can't interfere in his affairs. The elders have made their own decisions. Ning Shuang, just practice with peace of mind. Don't worry too much."
"But..."
Gu Ningshuang What else would you like to say.
At this moment, slight footsteps came from the courtyard gate.
The three women turned their heads and looked at each other at the same time.
I saw the figure of Gu Sheng appearing at the entrance of the hospital, with the figure standing behind him.
"Brother?!"
When Gu Ningshuang saw Gu Sheng, he was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes burst into indescribable light of surprise!
She stood up from the stone bench suddenly, rushed out of the pavilion in a few steps, and ran towards Gu Sheng!
"Brother! You're back!"
Gu Ningshuang ran in front of Gu Sheng, his face flushed with excitement and his eyes shining brightly.
She looked Gu Sheng up and down, as if to make sure he was okay.
"Hmm."
Gu Sheng looked at his sister with a rare gentleness in his eyes.
He raised his hand and gently patted Gu Ningshuang on the shoulder.
"I'm fine."
"Senior Brother Gu!"
Qin Yurou also quickly stood up and saluted, with concern on his face.
Shen Qingtian was still sitting in the pavilion, his eyes under the bronze mask fell on Gu Sheng, and he nodded slightly.
Gu Sheng took Gu Ningshuang into the pavilion.
His eyes swept over the three women and finally landed on Shen Qingtian, getting straight to the point.
"Miss Shen, Ning Shuang... I'm afraid I have to leave it to you temporarily."
Shen Qingtian's eyes flashed.
"What happened?"
"Xiao Beixuan is offering a reward of one million High-grade Spirit Stone for my life."
Gu Sheng's voice was calm, but with a coldness.
"I'm worried that he will be detrimental to Ning Shuang."
"Millions High-grade Spirit Stone?!"
Qin Yurou took a deep breath and turned pale instantly! Gu Ningshuang also covered his mouth, his eyes full of worry.
Shen Qingtian's eyes under the bronze mask suddenly became sharp.
"He dares!"
"He is a lost dog and acts without any scruples."
Gu Sheng said in a deep voice.
"Ning Shuang is in the Holy Courtyard. Although she is protected by the Xuanmen, there is no guarantee that there will be no oversights. I would like to ask you to take her out of the Holy Courtyard and go to a safe place to temporarily avoid the limelight."
Shen Qingtian was silent for a moment and nodded slowly.
"Okay. I will take her to 'Medicine King Valley'.
An old friend of mine, an elder, is in charge there, and it is extremely difficult for outsiders to enter."
Medicine King Valley! That is Eastern Wasteland one of the top alchemy holy places, with a transcendent status and strict guards! It is indeed one of the safest places to go!
Gu Sheng calmed down for a moment, turned his wrist, and a warm jade token appeared in his palm. It was the Spirit Nurturing Quiet Room jade token that Miss Tantai had given to Shen Qingtian before.
He handed the jade token to Shen Qingtian.
"This thing may be useful to you. It is a little bit of my thoughts."
Shen Qingtian looked at the jade plaque, feeling the rich aura contained in it, with a complex look in his eyes.
She knows how precious this thing is.
She didn't refuse, stretched out her hand to take it, and said solemnly.
"Don't worry. As long as I live, Ning Shuang will be fine."
"Brother..."
Gu Ningshuang looked at Gu Sheng, his eyes full of reluctance and worry.
Gu Sheng rubbed her head with a low but firm voice.
"Follow Sister Qing Tan with peace of mind. I will pick you up after I finish handling the matters at hand."
Gu Ningshuang nodded vigorously, resisting tears from falling.
"Well! Brother, you must be careful!"
Qin Yurou looked at this scene with mixed feelings in his heart. He was worried about Gu Ningshuang, worried about Gu Sheng's situation, and even more deeply uneasy about Shen Qingyun's abnormality.
There is a solemn atmosphere in the courtyard pavilion of Shen Qingtian.
Gu Sheng entrusted Gu Ningshuang, Shen Qingtian agreed and prepared to take him to Medicine King Valley for temporary refuge.
Qin Yurou looked at Gu Ningshuang's reluctant look, and felt mixed emotions in his heart.
"Sister Qing Tan, please take a step to speak."
Gu Sheng looked at Shen Qingtian and said in a deep voice.
Shen Qingtian nodded slightly, stood up and led Gu Sheng towards a secluded quiet room deep in the courtyard.
The shadow is like the most loyal guard, silently guarding the door of the quiet room.
The door of the quiet room was closed, blocking out the sounds from the outside world. The indoor layout was simple, with only a futon and a low table.
"Xiao Beixuan is offering a reward of one million High-grade Spirit Stone for your life."
Shen Qingtian got straight to the point, and the voice under the bronze mask was solemn.
"This matter has spread in the dark market, and there are many people staring at you now."
Gu Sheng's expression remained unchanged.
"Expected."
Shen Qingtian looked at his calm face and continued.
"However, the three sect-level interceptors you encountered outside the teleportation array were not the work of Xiao Beixuan."
"Oh?"
Gu Sheng's eyes narrowed slightly.
"How can I see it?"
"Xiao Beixuan Although this person is arrogant, he has his own rules for doing things.
If he really wants to kill you, he will never send just three sect members to take action, especially after you have shown great strength."
Shen Qingtian analyzed.
