I saved the entire sect by playing idly by letting things fall apart.

On the main peak of the Sword Inquiry Sect, the two sat facing each other. Zuo Yi looked up, slightly annoyed. "What? Is your butt on fire?"

After learning that her senior brother had entered the forbidden area, Xia Qing initially watched the spectacle with amusement, but later, for some reason, she began to feel restless.

Xia Qing: "No."

He was still restless. After being scolded, he quickly glanced at his senior brother and ran out. A moment later, he came back with a book in his hand. As he flipped through the pages, he explained under his senior brother's cold gaze, "I just suddenly remembered that our elder mentioned our sect's spiritual artifacts."

"They once mentioned that there is an evil artifact inside our forbidden area."

"It was probably several years ago. Back then, we were specifically warned not to make any mistakes, or we would be sent to the forbidden area and be accompanied by man-eating evil artifacts."

"Back then, we scared that idiot Chu Xingzhi into behaving himself." Chu Xingzhi was one of the most unruly members of their sect. He was foul-mouthed and liked to provoke people. But after being scared by the elder's words, he finally toned it down a lot and stopped stirring up trouble everywhere.

"???" Zuo Yi looked up abruptly. "That thing, wasn't it just a joke to scare us?" He teased, half-jokingly, "You actually took it seriously?"

Isn't this just like the old saying that if you don't sleep well, a big black cat will take you away?

Moreover, so many people are speculating about the Sword Sect's magical artifact, and they all guess that it might be a sword.

How could a sect as upright as the Sword Inquiry Sect, filled with sword cultivators, possibly possess evil weapons?

Xia Qing ignored him. If Zhu You were here, he would probably have realized the problem immediately. He explained, "That senior uncle from Changming Sect can still joke around and scare the sect's disciples, but does our Senior Uncle seem like the type to joke with us?"

"..." Thinking of the twelve peaks of the sect, the twelve elders were all serious and cold-faced, and he indeed fell silent.

"Things like those from the underworld need to be suppressed by places that are extremely yang and strong."

Sects with many sword cultivators are especially better at suppressing the mysterious and unpredictable spiritual artifacts like the Dark Book.

"If it's an evil artifact, it will kill people," Zuo Yi said with certainty.

The Moon Arrow is undoubtedly gentle. The evil weapon, however, is not.

"Since the Sixth Elder has imprisoned the person, he must have some idea of ​​what's going on." Zuo Yi paused. "Moreover, Ye Qiao's strength gives me a feeling that we don't need to worry about these things; what we should be worried about is the spiritual weapon itself."

Xia Qing pursed her lips. "But I guess neither of them knows the origin of that book."

"Why don't we go in and help them?"

"Don't."

Zuo Yi felt that their actions were no less than the Calabash Brothers saving their grandfather. "Since you're worried, why don't you go and report to the Grand Elder first?"

It's safer to let the Grand Elder decide on this matter.

The two immediately stopped sitting there and got up to go to the main peak to look for the person. After being told that the Grand Elder was inside the Sixth Elder Peak, they rushed to their destination. Zuo Yi and Xia Qing hurriedly rushed in and kicked the door open.

With a loud "bang".

The Grand Elder, who was just about to offer tea, was left speechless.

"Are you all crazy?"

Whoever they learned it from immediately kicked them.

Zuo Yi sensed something was wrong; after spending so much time with the Changming Sect's immoral behavior, he had unconsciously picked it up. Before the elder could get angry, he quickly bowed and said, "Elder, Senior Brother has entered the forbidden area."

"What?!"

The Grand Elder paused, his brow furrowing deeply. His first thought was, "Did he go to get the magical artifact?"

He wasn't being overly pessimistic. Ye Qiao had made a name for herself among the eight great families the moment she stormed into the dungeon wielding the Moon Arrow. A spiritual weapon that hadn't been touched for a century had been brought out by a group of Golden Core disciples. Hearing that Ye Qinghan was in the forbidden area, he subconsciously connected it to Ye Qiao's previous actions.

Unlike the Moon Cleansing Sect, the Moon Arrow is harmless, while the spiritual artifacts in their forbidden area are no pushovers.

Thinking about it, the Grand Elder's heart pounded wildly.

"no."

The Sixth Elder interjected, "I punished him by sending him in to reflect on his actions."

The Grand Elder's expression immediately changed: "How could you let Ye Qinghan go into such a dangerous place alone?"

The Sixth Elder waved his hand casually, "Not only him, I also imprisoned Ye Qiao from the Changming Sect. Let the two of them be punished together."

These two, relying on their Nascent Soul stage cultivation to ambush the elders, will not escape.

"Ye Qiao?" The First Elder's expression hardened slightly.

He interacted with Ye Qiao more often than the Sixth Elder, and the higher the level of this personal disciple, the more mysterious his strength became.

"She's a Nascent Soul cultivator too, isn't she?" He had personally witnessed Ye Qiao's sword aura, and the Grand Elder was utterly baffled. "Why did you let them both go in together?"

"What's wrong?" The Sixth Elder, observing his reaction, guessed, "Are you worried that the two of them might be in danger?"

"No, not at all." The Grand Elder's eyes were lifeless. "I'm afraid there might be danger in the forbidden area."

Ye Qiao was able to fight beyond her realm even at the Golden Core stage. Calculating the time, Ye Qiao broke through about three months earlier than Ye Qinghan. Three months was enough for her to become familiar with the Nascent Soul stage.

If he were serious, Ye Qiao would have virtually no rivals in the Nascent Soul realm.

In other words, their forbidden area was simply not enough for her to play in.

……

The direction of the forbidden area was not difficult to find. After asking the Sixth Elder for his exact location, the two stepped into this unfamiliar place one after another.

After stepping inside, Ye Qinghan drew his sword and looked around, feeling lost and completely unsure of what to do.

Although Ye Qiao had never been inside the forbidden area of ​​the Wenjian Sect, she had been inside her own home. The forbidden area of ​​the Changming Sect was quite peaceful; as long as the disciples didn't venture inside, there wouldn't be any problems.

Unlike the Sword Inquiry Sect, the moment you enter, a chilling sensation quickly spreads throughout your body.

The two exchanged a glance.

"Such a powerful killing intent."

She crossed her arms. "It's true what they say, every sect is like this. Your forbidden area is just as fierce as you are."

Ye Qinghan pursed her lips and retorted, "It's because your sect's restrictions are too weak."

As long as you don't wander around, there's basically no danger in the forbidden area of ​​Changming Sect. This is why Ye Qiao has come to regard the forbidden area as his home. However, some forbidden areas in other sects are accompanied by various restrictions and dangers. Changming Sect's lax discipline is why it has produced a group of oddballs.

The moment they stepped inside, the two Nascent Soul cultivators, with their keen senses, could feel an unknown undercurrent surging within the forbidden area.

Ye Qiao walked ahead. Perhaps because no one had set foot in the forbidden area for many years, the ground was covered with a thick layer of dust. She stretched out her hand, and a chill instantly spread throughout the entire area.

The environment here seems excessively cold.

To avoid losing her senses from the cold, she chose to start a conversation, "Does your sect's magical weapon consist of a sword?"

"Not necessarily." Their sect already has enough spirit swords.

"..." The chat ended.

Ye Qiao: "I'm so hungry. I should have known better than to go into the forbidden area."

Ye Qinghan asked in a strange tone, "Have you gone mad from the cold?"

At the Nascent Soul stage, there would be no feeling of hunger.

"..."

"Ye Qinghan," Ye Qiao said softly, "Has anyone ever told you that you can kill a conversation?"

Ye Qinghan blinked innocently: "No, they all praised me as a responsible and good senior brother." His tone was quite proud.

Ye Qiao nodded: "Ah, they also praised me as a kind and simple good person."

"..." The two exchanged a glance and decisively stopped the pointless conversation they had just had.

Since there was no light inside the forbidden area, the flames were extinguished. Ye Qinghan drew a long sword. "You stand behind me. I'll scout ahead."

This sword was also a spiritual weapon, obtained during the Nascent Soul Trial. It was known as indestructible. He carried the sword to clear the way, walking very carefully the entire time. If he messed it up, the elders would definitely be furious.

"Alright." Ye Qiao had no objections. Holding the Bright Moon Arrow, she shot arrows from behind Ye Qinghan to remove all the restrictions blocking their path. She also scanned her surroundings, looking for anything she could gather.

She took out the Flying Immortal Sword. The light-attribute spirit sword could emit a bright light no matter where it was, making the place look like a giant light bulb.

The forbidden area was eerily quiet. They had already ventured quite deep inside, yet they had encountered nothing.

This is the strangest thing. You have to know that even if Ye Qinghan is very careful, he is still a sword cultivator. He doesn't know how to be gentle, and the spirit of the artifact usually can hardly tolerate the destruction of the place where he is.

There has been absolutely no reaction so far.

He's quite composed.

The moment this thought crossed her mind, something touched her back. Ye Qiao turned her head decisively, and the next second, the Bright Moon Arrow in her hand had vanished.

In the instant Ye Qiao was stunned, Ye Qinghan's longsword also disappeared.

This is strange.

Before the two could even speak, Ye Qiao's sword spirits began to chatter amongst themselves.

Jinghong Sword asked with concern, "Qiaoqiao, is the Moon Arrow lost?"

Lueying offered a profound analysis: "If one person gets lost, it can be interpreted as the other party being too incompetent."

"And you lost both of them—" Lueying laughed, "That just means you two are both too incompetent, lalala."

Ye Qiao hardened her fist.

I want to pull it out and smash it apart with one punch.

Then she remembered that the swordsman hadn't taken human form yet.

Ye Qinghan ignored Lue Ying's vulgar words. The Moon Arrow and the longsword disappeared simultaneously in the short time after they took them out. The young man pursed his lips and couldn't help but curse inwardly, "What's the origin of that magical weapon?"

A magnet?

Without anyone noticing, they managed to remove all the weapons from their hands.

He pursed his lips. "Until we're certain of the artifact's function, it's best to be cautious and not take out the spirit sword again."

He was afraid that the spirit sword would disappear in the next second.

Ye Qiao remembered her spirit swords, which were still sheathed. She drawled, "Is anyone willing to come out and scout ahead?" She had five spirit swords. The advantage was that she could randomly throw one out if she encountered a problem.

"..." The previously chattering sword spirits collectively pretended to be dead.

Just kidding. The Moon Arrow, a sect's most prized treasure, can disappear in an instant. Their group of sword spirits will disappear even faster than the enemy.

"Let the Shadow Sword go." After a long while, Bujianjun maliciously urged, "Anyway, it hasn't taken human form, it doesn't even have a spirit body."

Jinghong's beautiful eyes suddenly narrowed: "Don't you dare bully my obedient Lueying."

Lueying is so well-behaved; when she's unhappy, she can twist his head off and kick it like a ball.

Han Shuang imitated her words meticulously: "I am not allowed to bully the honest and honest Jun."

When I didn't see you happy, your tail wagged like a big black cat's, and you said with satisfaction, "That's right, don't bully me."

Ye Qiao, who was watching the show, suddenly let out a howl.

Ye Qinghan turned to stare at her, and then Ye Qiao shook her head and said, "They look so cute when they're arguing."

Ye Qinghan: "...?" Are you a pervert?
