While writing a diary at Zongwu, Wang Yuyan falls in love with someone else.

suspended animation?

Jiang Sishui suddenly realized why Kong Xingyi had to behead the inner demon after piercing his heart with a sword. She was obviously afraid that he might have some kind of strange secret technique to save his life and would repeat the same trick.

Suddenly, A'Zhu called out, "Brother Jiang!"

Jiang Sishui looked in the direction of the sound and saw Azhu peel off a human skin mask from the face of the inner demon.

It turned out that A'Zhu was skilled in disguise and had already sensed something was wrong. Out of curiosity, she went forward to investigate and happened to discover the truth.

Jiang Sishui and Kong Xingyi stepped forward and saw that the severed head now had a much younger face.

"Fake?" Kong Xingyi frowned.

Jiang Sishui said calmly, "The inner demon from back then should be dead. This person is most likely his successor."

Kong Xingyi nodded; this explanation was the most reasonable.

With the inner demons dead, there's no need to stay any longer, lest you become disliked.

Just as Kong Xingyi was about to say goodbye, Jiang Sishui suddenly looked to her left and said, "You've been hiding for a long time, come out!"

Kong Xingyi was taken aback upon hearing this, and then became alert.

The women of the Huangshan Sect also drew their swords, ready for battle.

"Hahaha!"

First, a burst of laughter came from behind a large rock, and then a gray figure appeared out of thin air in front of the rock.

The gray shadow appeared twice in quick succession, as if teleporting, before stopping in front of the group.

After seeing the gray-robed old man's face clearly, the women of the Huangshan Sect were all stunned.

"Elder Song?" Kong Xingyi stared wide-eyed at the gray-robed elder, her face full of astonishment.

Master Song is the only man in the Huangshan School, but he is not a member of the school; he is just a sweeper.

Because he had a past relationship with the previous leader of the Huangshan Sect and was of a very high seniority, the Huangshan Sect did not expel him from the mountain, and even once treated him as an honored guest.

Old Song claimed that he was not used to being treated like an ancestor and insisted on finding something to do.

So, through the changing seasons, he swept this place for a full thirty years!

However, in these past sixty years, there has never been any news of him being a man of hidden talents.

But judging from his strange, teleporting movements just now, he was clearly an extremely powerful master.

Their established image was overturned, and the Huangshan School disciples, including Kong Xingyi, all thought they were seeing things.

The old man in gray chuckled: "Little Kong, why do you seem not to recognize me?"

Kong Xingyi let out a soft sigh, calmed herself down, and bowed with her sword in greeting, "Xingyi greets Elder Song!"

"Disciple greets Elder Song!" the women echoed in unison.

His manners were impeccable, and his expression showed an added degree of respect compared to usual.

But respect also implies unfamiliarity.

The old man in gray shook his head.

This is not what he wanted to see.

He turned to Jiang Sishui and said helplessly, "Kid, this is all your fault."

If Jiang Sishui hadn't called him out, he wouldn't have shown up at all.

Of course, he could also just run away and avoid seeing the women.

However, considering the current situation of the Huangshan Sect, he estimated that he would be exposed soon anyway, so after weighing the options, he simply went with the flow and stepped forward openly.

Jiang Sishui looked at the old man in gray and suddenly said, "Are you Qing Songzi of the Qingcheng Sect, sir?"

Qingcheng Sect? Qing Songzi?

The women of the Huangshan Sect were taken aback, all turning to look at the gray-robed elder, a single thought simultaneously forming in their minds—

Could the hermit of Qingcheng Mountain that Yu Canghai spoke of, who lived in seclusion in Huangshan, be...?

The old man in gray's smile vanished, and his brows furrowed: "How did you know?"

"When I killed Yu Canghai just now, the old man seemed to have been hostile towards me."

"You sensed it in just a fleeting thought?"

"For a fleeting moment, that did happen."

"Is this why you found me?"

"Yes."

"Based on this alone, it's not surprising that you can guess that I was once a member of the Qingcheng Sect, but you can't recall my name."

"Yes, but that doesn't matter, I just know it anyway."

The gray-robed old man, Qing Songzi, gave Jiang Sishui a deep look, but asked no more questions.

His gaze swept over the women of the Huangshan Sect, and he sighed, saying, "That's right, I am Qing Songzi, a former disciple of the Qingcheng Sect."

"Decades ago, due to a disagreement with his senior brother, the sect leader Tiandaozi, he left the Qingcheng Sect and wandered around freely until he settled in Huangshan."

"The reason why Yu Canghai and the other six came here is that the old bastard Tiandaozi is dead, and the remaining Qingcheng Sect elders can't keep order. They came to invite me back to be the sect leader."

"I avoided them, but I never expected that they would be killed by you."

As Qing Songzi spoke, he gazed at Jiang Sishui.

But in fact, he was explaining those words to the disciples of the Huangshan School.

Otherwise, there would be no need to waste time and effort.

As expected, upon hearing this, the women of the Huangshan Sect realized the truth and felt relieved.

Avoiding the meeting is already an attitude.

Jiang Sishui added, "When I encountered my inner demon, he was hiding and secretly healing his wounds. I suppose the old man intervened."

Qing Songzi said frankly, "This kid's 'Spirit-Capturing Technique' is quite skillful. I made a mistake and he got away."

"I thought he would run down the mountain after being seriously injured, but unexpectedly he did the opposite and insisted on going up the mountain."

"Young people these days are all cunning and dishonest."

Overwhelmed with emotion, Qing Songzi raised the wine jug and took a big gulp.

... .... 0

Then, Qing Songzi waved his hand and said, "You don't need to worry about the affairs of Tianyu Palace. If Geshu Tian comes, I will see what this great demon is all about."

The women of the Huangshan Sect were overjoyed upon hearing this.

The inner demon could easily kill Qiu Duandao, but Qing Songzi could chase it away like a dog, not to mention his mysterious and unpredictable movement techniques...

This is undoubtedly a powerful backer!

In an instant, everyone's face was filled with smiles.

Kong Xingyi immediately understood Qing Songzi's gesture.

She glanced at Qing Songzi, then at Jiang Sishui, hesitated for a moment, and ultimately didn't dare to say anything more. She then turned and left with her fellow disciples.

Only three people remained in the arena. Jiang Sishui said, "Senior, you don't intend to avenge them, do you?"

"revenge?"

Qing Songzi shook his head: "I've seen what kind of people they are these past few days. It's only a matter of time before they get killed."

"Besides, even if I wanted to, I couldn't do it."

"Not only will I fail to do it, but you'll also hold a grudge against me afterwards. How will I ever have a peaceful life after that?"

Jiang Sishui was somewhat surprised, not expecting the old man to see things so clearly.

As expected, old age brings wisdom.

At this moment, Qing Songzi asked again, "If you can find me, can you find two other people?"

"The other two?" Jiang Sishui's gaze sharpened.

Seeing his reaction, Qing Songzi immediately understood what was going on.

Without saying a word, he reached out and grabbed at an empty space!

171 Flower Fairy: Fairy, you human trafficker, just you wait!

As Qing Songzi grabbed, the surrounding power of heaven and earth was mobilized, all rushing towards an empty space thirty feet away, as if trying to squeeze something out.

The next moment, a seven-colored light suddenly appeared in the empty void, neutralizing that force.

However, at the same time, the magical formation there was also destroyed, and the two beautiful figures were forced out.

Jiang Sishui was able to see the two people clearly and her heart stirred: "So it was Fairy Green Mother and Flower Fairy."

"The Fairy Maiden Green Mother is actually hiding here. Could it be that she gave me the Jade Beak because she wants me to help her pass the trial and retrieve the 'Heavenly Sword' so she can come out and reap the rewards?"

Jiang Sishui thought about it more and more and felt that this was indeed the case.
