Chapter 782 Encounter
To celebrate this victory, Tianxian Sect held a grand celebration. The disciples were decorated with lanterns and colors, and the whole sect was immersed in a sea of joy.
As the sect master and his wife, Gu Jiuchen and Ye Linglong naturally became the center of attention. One of them is rich and handsome, and the other is charming. Standing together, they look like a beautiful couple, attracting countless envious glances. Gu Jiuchen raised his wine glass with a faint smile on his gentle and jade-like face, "Today, our Tianxian Sect was able to save the day, thanks to the concerted efforts of all the elders and disciples. I also want to thank my wife, Linglong, for facing it with me." wind and rain! &34;His eyes fell on Ye Linglong beside him, and the love in his eyes was like the mellow wine in this glass, rich and deep.
Ye Linglong smiled softly, her eyebrows full of tenderness, "Jiuchen, between you and me, there is no need to say thank you."
Everyone laughed in good faith and raised their glasses, creating a festive and peaceful atmosphere.
When the celebration came to an end, Gu Jiuchen took Ye Linglong's hand and said, "Linglong, come with me." &34;
He led her through the lively crowd to a secluded place in the back mountain of Tianxian Peak. My eyes suddenly opened up, and a garden full of flowers came into view. The colorful flowers swayed gently in the night wind, exuding bursts of refreshing fragrance. The moonlight fell, covering the sea of flowers with a dreamy silver gauze.
"Linglong, do you like it?" Gu Jiuchen asked gently.
Ye Linglong was already fascinated by it. She covered her mouth and her eyes were slightly red. How could she not recognize these flowers? She mentioned these casually on weekdays, but she didn't expect that Gu Jiuchen actually remembered them all and planted this sea of flowers for her.
"Jiuchen, are you preparing this for me?" Her voice was choked with sobs.
Gu Jiuchen gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and said softly: "Fool, as long as you like it."
Ye Linglong could no longer suppress the emotion in her heart and threw herself into Gu Jiuchen's arms. The two hugged each other tightly and kissed passionately in the sea of moonlight and flowers. Happiness, sweetness, at this moment, seems to last forever.
However, at the peak of this happiness, a disciple rushed in and broke the tranquility. He held a letter in his hand and said solemnly, "Sect Master, there is a letter from the Demon Realm."
"Demon Realm?" Gu Jiuchen frowned slightly, took the letter, opened it and looked at it, his expression suddenly changed. On the letterhead, the familiar Juanxiu handwriting was a bit panicked, and it was Zhao Ling'er's own handwriting. In the letter, Zhao Ling'er briefly and comprehensively described her experience: she was trapped in a secret realm on the edge of the Demon Realm, besieged by monsters, and was in critical condition. She hoped that Gu Jiuchen could come to rescue her.
Seeing Gu Jiuchen's expression was different, Ye Linglong asked with concern: "Jiuchen, what's wrong? But what happened to Ling'er?"
Gu Jiuchen handed the letter to Ye Linglong and said in a deep voice: "Ling'er is trapped in the Demon Realm."
After reading the letter, Ye Linglong's beauty turned pale. The Demon Realm was extremely dangerous. Even masters like them did not dare to set foot in it easily, let alone a weak woman like Ling'er? She held Gu Jiuchen's hand and said eagerly: "Jiuchen, let's go and save her!"
Gu Jiuchen nodded, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes, "Without further delay, let's leave now!"
Gu Jiuchen and Gu Jiuchen stood up with their swords, turned into two streams of light, and galloped towards the Demon Realm. Along the way, the two were anxious, but they did not dare to use the teleportation array rashly. After all, the teleportation array had the risk of space turbulence. If you were not careful, you would get lost in it, and the gain would outweigh the loss.
They flew all the way, crossing mountains and rivers, passing through towns and villages, and finally arrived at the edge of the Demon Realm three days later. The spiritual energy here is thin, the demonic energy is dense, and the sky is always gloomy, like a dead place.
"Is this the Demon Realm?" Ye Linglong looked at the desolate scene in front of her and couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.
Gu Jiuchen held her hand and comforted her: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
The two were about to continue walking when suddenly, an old man in gray robe appeared in front of them. The old man's beard and hair are all white, his face is haggard, but he has a pair of eyes as deep as stars.
"Are you two going to the depths of the Demon Realm?" The old man stopped the two of them and asked in a calm tone.
Gu Jiuchen frowned slightly, cupped his hands and said, "Exactly, may I ask senior?"
The old man smiled, but did not answer Gu Jiuchen's question. He just said meaningfully: "I would like to advise you two, the Demon Realm is extremely dangerous and is not the place you should come. You should leave as soon as possible."
"Senior's words are wrong," Gu Jiuchen said solemnly, "I am here to save people, and I also ask senior to tell me the whereabouts of my friend."
The old man shook his head and said: "Rescue people? I'm afraid you can't save yourselves. There is a huge secret hidden where that girl is. Once it is touched, the consequences will be disastrous!"
Gu Jiuchen and Ye Linglong looked at each other with shock in their hearts. Although the old man's words were mysterious, they revealed an unquestionable majesty, so they had to treat them with caution.
"Senior, can you make it clear?" Gu Jiuchen asked.
However, the old man just shook his head and turned away, leaving only one sentence echoing in the wind: "The secret of heaven cannot be leaked, everything is determined, you can do it yourself." Gu Jiuchen and Ye Linglong did not take the old man's warning to heart. When he is being alarmist. They drove all the way and finally arrived at the strange valley called "Blood Maple Valley" at the place Zhao Ling'er mentioned in the letter seven days later.
As soon as I stepped into the valley, a strong smell of blood hit my nose, making me sick. The valley was full of withered trees and blood-red maple leaves, and there were many corpses lying on the ground. It was obvious that there had just been a tragic fight here.
"Ling'er!" Ye Linglong's heart tightened, and she quickly released her spiritual sense to search in the valley.
"There!" Gu Jiuchen's eyes were like torches, and he saw at a glance that in the depths of the valley, a group of people were besieging a woman in white. The woman was Zhao Ling'er. She was covered in blood and ragged clothes, but she was still fighting hard.
"Looking for death!" Gu Jiuchen shouted angrily, and his figure flashed, and he turned into a golden light and rushed into the crowd.
"Boom!"
With a loud bang, the monks who besieged Zhao Ling'er were immediately blown away by a powerful force, spitting blood and falling to the ground.
Ye Linglong followed closely behind, waving the long sword in her hand, and the sword energy was everywhere, killing the monks who wanted to attack one by one.
"Brother Jiuchen, Sister Linglong, you are finally here!" Zhao Linger was relieved when she saw Gu Jiuchen and Ye Linglong, and shouted weakly.
"Linger, how are you?" Ye Linglong hurried forward, supported Zhao Linger, and asked with concern.
"I'm fine," Zhao Linger shook her head, pointed at the monks lying on the ground, and said, "These people are from the Black Demon Cult, and they want to rob a treasure I found."
"Treasure?" Gu Jiuchen frowned, "What treasure?"
Zhao Linger took a deep breath and said in a low voice: "Legend has it that in ancient times, there was a divine artifact called the Nine Heavens Mysterious Fire Mirror, which had the power to destroy the world"
