The Wheel-Turning Master.

Chapter 45: The One Who Killed Me (Please Read)
"I thought you were at the sixth level of Wuji Gong, but I didn't expect you to reach the seventh level."

Pei Ning walked forward, sat next to Lin Bai, and whispered in his ear: "Elder Tong will be here soon, be smart, we will find an opportunity to act."

As she spoke, she grabbed a handful of ash and rubbed it on Lin Bai's clothes, and also rubbed it on his face a few times. Lin Bai immediately became a disheveled boy.

Pei Ning then took off her hairpin, her long black hair falling down like a waterfall, her clothes loosening a little, and she leaned against Lin Bai and whispered, her face flushing.

Lin Bai was very calm. He had always known that Pei Ning was flexible and a good actor.

After a while, a sneer was heard from a distance.

"Who?" Pei Ning immediately stood up, looked around calmly, picked up the sword, and looked towards the source of the voice.

"Zhang Yuanshan gave birth to a good daughter after committing adultery in broad daylight." Elder Tong walked out from behind a big tree.

He was still wearing a blue shirt, holding a sword in his right hand, with an expression of vicissitudes and fatigue on his face, but the sneer in his eyes remained the same.

"So Elder Tong also has the habit of eavesdropping." Pei Ning sneered, stuck his sword into the stone, tied his hair with his hands, and kept talking, "I have worked hard to practice sword since I was a child, and I can't enjoy myself?"

Elder Tong took two steps forward and looked at Lin Bai with a gloomy look.

Lin Bai lowered his head to avoid his gaze and hid behind Pei Ning.

"Don't be afraid of him. Even though he is an elder, he may not be able to defeat me." Pei Ning protected Lin Bai and looked at Elder Tong.

"Hmph!" Elder Tong suppressed his anger, glanced at the ashes on the ground, and asked, "You have been here for three or five days, right? Have you found Master Qi?"

"Of course." Pei Ning smiled, "But we only found the remains."

"Dead? How is that possible?" Elder Tong was horrified, and frowned in confusion, "After such a big incident, you still have the mind to seek pleasure?"

"Do you think I'll cry for three days?" Pei Ning laughed.

"Disrespectful to the Immortal Master, you don't look like your father's biological child!" Elder Tong's expression changed, his eyes became deeper, and he whispered: "But... did you pick up something?"

"I'm here, waiting for you to make the decision." Pei Ning said.

"You are quite sensible and have lived up to your father's cultivation!" Elder Tong breathed a sigh of relief, "Lead the way!"

Pei Ning raised the sword, grabbed Lin Bai's sleeve with one hand, and led the way forward.

Elder Tong followed silently behind, staring at Pei Ning while looking around.

After a while, they arrived at the blessed land. Elder Tong saw the birds singing, the flowers blooming, and the harmony between humans and animals, and he couldn't help but believe it more.

"It's inside." When Pei Ning arrived at the entrance of the cave, his expression became much more serious.

"You go in first." Elder Tong was really cautious.

"You should go first." Pei Ning said with a smile.

"Let's go in together." Elder Tong gave in.

Pei Ning nodded in agreement.

Lin Bai was about to follow when Elder Tong spoke again.

"He stayed at the cave entrance to guard it." Elder Tong stared at Pei Ning and spoke.

Lin Bai looked at Pei Ning, and Pei Ning nodded to him, as if to comfort him.

Elder Tong was still very cautious. Although he was walking side by side with Pei Ning, he held his sword across his body and was always on guard against Pei Ning.

The cave was dark, damp, and filled with a rotten smell.

After about half a quarter of an hour, I saw light ahead.

As we walked forward, we saw a cave with sunlight slanting down from the top and a stone platform below.

On the stone platform, there was an old man sitting cross-legged with his back to the two of them. He was holding a flag with his left hand and his head hung, looking uncertain whether he was dead or alive.

Elder Tong leaned against the stone wall, looked at the old man from afar, and shouted, "Master Qi! I am Tong Ruhu!"

For a moment, the entire cave was filled with echoes, but Master Qi remained silent.

Pei Ning watched silently, and felt something was wrong: he had previously told Master Qi that Elder Tong had taken away what Pei Wuyong had stolen, so whether Master Qi believed it or not, he should have made some move...

Pei Ning held the hilt of the sword, cautious and alert.

Elder Tong pondered for a while, then took out a flying knife from his arms, which was the one used by Lin Bai.

Suddenly, a flying knife flew out and rushed towards Master Qi like lightning.

Puff! The flying knife went into Master Qi's neck from the back and came out from the front, bringing out a lot of yellow blood.

Then the remains of Master Qi fell to the ground, leaving only the khaki flag standing.

After a long time, Master Qi still did not move.

"..." Pei Ning was a little confused for a moment.
"Hahaha! There is no movement after such a vital point was pierced, he must be dead!" Elder Tong's face was red, and he seemed to be extremely excited. "I have been looking forward to this day! You dared to insult my daughter-in-law, and today you finally get your retribution! Hahaha!"

As he spoke, another flying knife came towards Pei Ning.

Pei Ningfang raised his sword to deflect the flying knife, and then he saw Elder Tong flying over with a fierce sword.

"It's not me who insults your daughter-in-law!" Pei Ning was not afraid at all and stepped forward.

When the two swords collided, Pei Ning discovered that Elder Tong did not exert much effort. Instead, he used the momentum of his own sword to leap back and pounce on the remains of Master Qi.

Pei Ning cursed inwardly at the old fox and immediately flew after him, with the tip of his sword pointing directly at Elder Tong's back.

The two men were only seven or eight steps apart. In the blink of an eye, Elder Tong arrived in front of Master Qi's remains.

Elder Tong did not hesitate and directly grabbed the copper ring on Master Qi's hand, mocking her non-stop, "Pei girl, you are still too young..."

But at this moment, Elder Tong suddenly found that his limbs seemed to be filled with lead and were extremely heavy. Pei Ning was originally in the air, but suddenly felt a huge suction force under him, and he could not use his Qinggong skills, and stumbled to the ground.

"One or two! How dare you covet the immortal technique!"

A hoarse voice echoed through the cave. Master Qi sat up with one hand on the ground. There was only a tiny wound on his throat. His eyes were full of hatred. "If I were unrestrained, how could I let you live until now?"

"Master Qi! I didn't mean it! It was Pei Ning who bewitched me! Please spare my life! I, I, I... I am willing to offer my wife, daughter and daughter-in-law for the enjoyment of the Master!" Elder Tong was horrified and wanted to kneel down and beg for mercy, but he couldn't even lift his legs.

Pei Ning frowned, holding the sword in his hand, and wanted to escape, but he felt like he was carrying a mountain on his back and could not move at all.

"Tong Ruhu, you were the one who personally sent your daughter-in-law to my bed. Didn't you say you admired the immortal arts? Today, I will let you see the wonders of the Heavy Earth Formation!"

Master Qi's grim smile became even more intense, and he looked at Pei Ning again.

Pei Ning did not regret not listening to Lin Bai's cautious words at this moment. He just smiled and said, "It seems that you are not only seriously injured, but also very scared. That's why you have to use the self-torture trick to eliminate the trouble in the future!"

"You were respectful at first, and although you didn't show any killing intent, how could you have fooled me?"

Master Qi actually laughed and said, "Your father Zhang Yuanshan showed me your portrait a while ago and wanted to offer his daughter to seek the truth. What do you think?"

Pei Ning held the sword, bit his lower lip, and said, "I would rather die!"

Master Qi wanted to say more, but he coughed up some blood. He gasped for breath, and a purple aura rose from his face.

With one hand supporting the ground, he took out a small porcelain bottle from somewhere with the other hand and said, "What do you mean by 'I am the only one who has the law'? This is 'I am the only one who has the law'! You and I are nothing but ants holding swords." As he spoke, he raised the porcelain bottle and was about to pour it into his mouth.

At this moment, there was a sound of breaking wind. With a bang, the pill bottle shattered, and the arrow's momentum did not decrease, but it did not penetrate Master Qi's palm, and only the arrowhead barely penetrated.

Master Qi looked towards where the arrow came from, and saw Lin Bai holding an iron bow with a calm expression.

The bow is like a full moon, and the arrow whistles and flies.

"Impregnable!"

Master Qi supported himself on the ground with one hand and used his other bloody hand to make hand gestures. An earth-yellow shadow suddenly appeared three feet around him.

Although the arrow was powerful, it could not penetrate the shadow and only made a muffled sound.

Now that the situation is clear, Lin Bai is well aware that he is at a disadvantage, but the opponent is not much better.

And that Master Qi Xian was obviously only able to defend, and couldn't get up to attack, otherwise why would he resort to the tactic of inflicting pain on himself? Even at this moment, he was just holding on!

Ten arrows were shot out in a flash, and tiny cracks appeared on the khaki shadow.

"A mere mortal..." Seeing that he was about to collapse, Master Qi spat out a mouthful of blood, and the khaki shadow became solid again.

But he became more hunched, his haggard face looked even older, and the purple air seemed to cover his entire face.

"Master Qi, how long can you hold on?" Lin Bai continued to bend the bow.

"In vain..." A smile appeared on Master Qi's lips, but he saw that the arrow was not attacking him at all, but was shooting towards the khaki flag.

With a "bang", the arrow exploded and the khaki flag began to shake.

"Steady!" Master Qi gritted his teeth and pointed, and the flag indeed stabilized.

"This broken flag must be the core of the formation." Elder Tong suddenly said.

"Shut up!" Lin Bai was not stupid either. He immediately bent his bow and shot another arrow, hitting Elder Tong's left leg.

"Why did you shoot me?" Elder Tong endured the pain.

Lin Bai shot another arrow, hitting Elder Tong's right leg.

"Why did you ejaculate again... I won't say anything!" Elder Tong gritted his teeth and endured the pain.

Lin Bai ignored him, put down the iron bow, leaped forward several feet, and attacked with the flying knife in his hand.

Silently and as fast as lightning.

"boom!"

The flying knife exploded on the ochre-colored shadow in front of Master Qi Xian.

"What else can you do? You just... such a fast flying knife!"

Master Qi was about to provoke the enemy, but he saw that the flag had been knocked away by another flying knife!
The heavy earth formation is broken!
"Hiss..." Elder Tong was a man who knew the situation well. He did not even bother to pull out the arrow from his thigh, but simply fled towards the cave entrance regardless of anything.

Pei Ning was a ruthless man. He immediately pointed his sword at Master Qi, as if he was ready to fight for his life.

"Looking for death!" Master Qi Xian struggled to stand up, put his hands together, and a phantom of an ochre-colored hill appeared behind him.

The purple aura on his face became even stronger, his hair and beard turned as white as snow, and his body became a little hunched, like a candle blown away by the wind.

Suddenly, the wind blew up, blowing up huge sands. For a moment, I couldn't see far and couldn't walk steadily.

Seeing that Pei Ning had been swept up in the sandstorm, Lin Bai didn't care and rushed forward with his sword.

The man is like a long rainbow, the sword is like a meteor. He is fully versed in sword techniques, and his mind is unobstructed. The long sword is infused with internal strength, making a buzzing sound, and Lin Bai pierces through the wind and sand with a desperate momentum.

"puff……"

The wind and sand dissipated, and the cave became clear and bright again.

Lin Bai stabbed Master Qi in the heart with his sword, and Pei Ning did the same, the two swords almost overlapped.

A flash of purple appeared on Master Qi Xian's face, then slowly dissipated. He seemed to still have some energy left, the shadow of the earth-colored hills behind him disappeared, his eyes were bleak, and only blood stains covered his withered face.

"It will all turn into dust in the end..." Master Qi did not even look at Lin Bai and Pei Ning, but just looked up at the ceiling of the cave.

The sunlight slanted down from above, as if time was flowing away.
