Is He Here to Kill People?

Just after midnight, when the sky was slightly bright, dozens of black shadows suddenly flew to the top of Mount Zhongnan and headed straight for Chongyang Palace.

Not long after, fires broke out in several palaces and houses for no apparent reason. Many Taoists in Chongyang Palace were awakened and became panic-stricken.

"The fire is coming!"

Soon, several Taoist priests were holding gongs and shouting at the top of their voices to warn people everywhere, but the sounds suddenly became silent after only a few beats.

"Something is wrong, Chunchun, wake up quickly." Ning Ruirui had just fallen asleep, but she woke up instantly and immediately pushed Shi Chun who was sleeping next to her.

Shi Chun was sleeping soundly. He didn't wake up even when being pushed. He seemed to be having a sweet dream, and his face looked very happy.

Seeing her like this, Ning Ruirui let her go to sleep, then she got up, put on her clothes, and slowly walked out of the room.

"Don't move!"

As soon as she walked out, a long sword was handed out from the side and placed across Ning Ruirui's fair and slender neck.

"Who are you?" Ning Ruirui felt that the person holding the sword was also a woman, and couldn't help asking, "How dare you cause trouble here? Don't you know that this is Chongyang Palace?"

The woman holding the sword sneered: "Just because this is Chongyang Palace, you come here to cause trouble. What, do you have any objections?"

"I don't have any opinions." Ning Ruirui was not panicked, and said calmly: "I just don't understand why you are looking for death?"

"If you keep talking nonsense, you'll be looking for death!" The woman with the sword probably had a bad temper. She might also be jealous of Ning Ruirui's beautiful face, so she was so rude to her.

"Although I don't know how many of you there are and what you want to do." Ning Ruirui is not a person who listens to orders. She chuckled and said, "But are you really ready to bear the consequences? You should know that Master Ren's cultivation is not low. What's more, there are even more powerful masters sitting in Zhongnan Mountain now. Aren't you afraid of dying without a burial place by doing this?"

"It's none of your business. Shut up!" The woman holding the sword was also quite emotionally unstable, and it was obvious that she was a little frightened deep down in her heart.

Ning Ruirui smiled faintly: "Are you anxious?"

"I told you to shut up. If you say another word, I'll stab a hole in you." The woman with the sword lowered her voice and warned angrily.

"I really don't believe it!" Ning Ruirui replied, and suddenly dodged the sword. She appeared in front of the woman with the sword, and raised her hand to slap her in the chest.

The woman with the sword was quite alert and noticed Ning Ruirui's movement as soon as she moved. Unfortunately, her reaction was not fast enough. Even with her defense, she still couldn't block Ning Ruirui's attack.

"Well!"

The woman holding the sword groaned softly, and immediately drew her sword and retreated, staring coldly at Ning Ruirui: "I didn't want to kill you, you'd better not seek death!"

"You are no match for me, so you are the one seeking death." Ning Ruirui's pretty face turned cold, and she said with a warning: "However, if you dare to cause trouble in Chongyang Palace, I believe you must have been prepared to die."

The sword-wielding woman's eyes suddenly rolled around, and I didn't know what evil plan she was up to.

"Don't even think about running away. You're not as fast as me." Ning Ruirui looked at the woman coldly. "As long as you dare to retreat, I will definitely find your weakness."

The woman with the sword hesitated for a second or two, and suddenly a strange low whistle came from her mouth covered by the veil.

"Are you calling your companions?" Ning Ruirui couldn't help but shook her head. "It's useless even if you call more people."

Sure enough, less than three seconds after the whistle, three masked men in black appeared.

"Number Seven, what's wrong with you?" One of the tall figures growled in dissatisfaction, "Just kill this woman with one sword, why did you call us here!"

The woman holding the sword was somewhat dissatisfied with the other party's attitude, but she still replied: "It's a difficult idea. I may not be able to handle her."

"What a waste!" The tall figure cursed, glanced at Ning Ruirui, and immediately rushed towards Ning Ruirui with clenched fists, "Miss, don't blame me for being cruel and ruthless when you go to the King of Hell. Blame it on you for showing up at Chongyang Palace at this time!"

“Bang!”

Ning Ruirui kicked the man away and said calmly: "Don't blame me, just blame yourself for being so weak and useless."

The tall figure fell to the ground hundreds of meters away and fainted.

The other two masked men who followed the tall figure couldn't help but look at each other. They obviously didn't expect Ning Ruirui to be so strong that she could cripple the strongest among them with just one move.

"Let's go together and kill her!" The woman with the sword was worried and couldn't help but say to the other two.

The two men also knew that time was running out and they could not afford to hesitate, so they drew their swords together and surrounded Ning Ruirui.

“Bang, bang, bang!”

But before the three of them could make any move, a mysterious force picked them up one by one and threw them directly off the cliff like garbage.

"Little long-legged girl, just kill idiots like these. There's no need to waste time with them." Xia Tian fell from the sky and landed lightly beside Ning Ruirui. He put his arms around her slender waist and said with a smile.

Ning Ruirui felt relieved when she saw Xia Tian, ​​but she asked, "Where did you go just now? Who are these people?"

"Just now, I went to see the master chef." Xia Tian replied: "Although his medical skills are good, his skills are really average. If he is killed by these people by mistake, I will have to save him. It's really troublesome."

Ning Ruirui also asked with some concern: "How is he now?"

"It's okay." Xia Tian laughed, "I helped him find his old lover. He should be safe now. But in another sense, he may be in even bigger trouble."

"Old lover? Who?" Ning Ruirui had never met Liu Xihua when she was underground, so naturally she didn't know what Xia Tian was talking about.

Xia Tian didn't want to talk more about this topic, so he asked, "Where's Chun girl?"

"She's still sleeping. She was sleeping so soundly that I didn't wake her up." Ning Ruirui replied.

Xia Tian nodded and said nonchalantly: "There is really no need to wake her up for such a small incident. Let her sleep peacefully."

"Then let's go to Chongyang Palace and take a look." Ning Ruirui frowned slightly, "I suspect these people are going after Master Ren. At this critical moment, he can't get into trouble."

"Little long-legged girl, you guessed wrong. These idiots are not going after Master Ren." Xia Tian waved his hand, denying Ning Ruirui's guess.

Ning Ruirui looked at Xia Tian in surprise: "Do you know what their purpose is?"

"I know." Xia Tian yawned lazily, "I came here for the messenger from the little fairyland. Oh, and the Taoist priest with thick eyebrows."

When Ning Ruirui heard this, a thought flashed through her mind: "Are they here to kill and silence us?"

"Whether it's killing people or saving people, it has little to do with us." Xia Tian said nonchalantly: "As long as they don't come to provoke us, we can just watch the fun."

"That won't work." Ning Ruirui rejected it flatly. "We can't let them do whatever they want in Zhongnan Mountain. Otherwise, we will lose face."

Xia Tian thought about it and felt that Ning Ruirui's words made some sense, so he said, "Then let's go over and take a look."

At this time, fire broke out everywhere in Chongyang Palace, and hundreds of Taoists were busy fetching water to put out the fire.

Although there were three uninvited guests in Master Ren's room, the atmosphere was peaceful.

"You are a guest from afar, why don't we have a cup of tea together?" Master Ren was not asleep and had been meditating. He was not surprised to see the visitor, but greeted him with a smile.

"As expected of a leader of a religion, you have such an extraordinary bearing that you still want to drink tea when you are about to die." One of them was wrapped the most tightly. Not only was there no gap on his body, but even his eyes were covered with a piece of black gauze. His voice was also processed, and it was impossible to tell whether he was a man or a woman, old or young.

Master Ren smiled and said to the man, "This fellow Taoist is quite prudent. It is really impolite to come as a guest dressed like this. But it doesn't matter. You still have to drink the tea, otherwise it would be my fault for not knowing etiquette."

As he spoke, Master Ren took three cups, picked up the teapot and filled each cup to eight-tenths: "Please!"

"Since Master Ren has personally poured the tea, it would be disrespectful not to drink it." The man in black veil hesitated for half a second, then turned around and sat opposite Master Ren, taking a cup of tea: "However, I am not used to drinking this kind of mountain tea from Mount Zhongnan, so just a token of my appreciation will do."

The man in black veil flicked the teacup lightly, and a drop of water jumped out of the cup. It spun in the air like a living thing, and then sank into the mouth under the scarf.

"Great skill." Master Ren nodded with a smile, "But I wonder why you fellow Taoists are visiting so late at night?"

The man in black veil smiled faintly: "Of course I have something to ask for."

"If you need my help, you can come back during the day. Why bother people in the middle of the night?" Master Ren said calmly.

The black-veiled man smiled and replied, "Because what you are asking for is a bit too much, it cannot be done during the day."

"You can't do it during the day, you can only do it at midnight." Master Ren seemed to be thinking about something, and after a few seconds he pretended to be enlightened: "So you want to do something shady."

The man in black veil was not disgusted by Master Ren's behavior. On the contrary, he nodded in agreement: "Yes, not only can he not be seen in public, but also in front of others. That's why he came here in the middle of the night with a mask on."

Master Ren asked, "Do you want my head?"

"No." The man in black veil shook his head. "Master Ren is the leader of the sect. He has selflessly distributed the spiritual energy of the earth veins to the scattered cultivators in the world over the years. His merits are immeasurable. How could we do such an evil thing?"

"Then I don't know what you want." Master Ren spread his hands, "Your time should be precious, so why not get straight to the point."

The man in black veil raised three fingers and said slowly: "There are three things we want."

"One is the messenger from the Lesser Immortal Realm. You must hand him over to us alive."

Master Ren nodded: "This is fine."

"The second is your eldest disciple Yue Danchen, you have to hand him over to us as well."

Master Ren was a little surprised, but he still nodded: "Yes."

"The third is the legendary [Heavenly Needle Stone Inscription] which records the Eight Needles Against the Heaven. You have to give it to us."

"Although that thing is useless, it certainly cannot be handed over to idiots like you." At this time, a rather lazy voice suddenly sounded in the room, which made Master Ren break out in a cold sweat.
