In front of the main hall of Wulai Peak.Master Lingxu's face was flushed with ruddy light, and he personally welcomed Liu Qingcheng back.At this moment, Liu Qingcheng was completely different from the miserable man he was in the Cliff of Repentance, and his face was radiant.However, Yun Che, who was standing next to him, shocked everyone who saw him.However, after not seeing him for just a few days, this once majestic and imposing senior brother seemed to have been drained of his energy and spirit, and he looked listless and weak.The originally clear eyes became cloudy, as if covered by an indelible shadow.Jinchen stood half a step behind Xie Qingmo and took it all in.He leaned forward slightly, put his ear close to Xie Qingmo's, and whispered in a whisper that only the two of them could hear."Xie Qingmo, do you know the evil art of using people as a furnace to replenish energy?"Xie Qingmo nodded, looked at Yun Che, and frowned slightly.Jin Chen was gloating, "Your senior brother is about to be sucked dry."Xing Yan and the other two had also discovered Yun Che's abnormality.Xing Yan's eyes were full of fear, Lan Yi covered her mouth in disbelief, and Shi Yan's face was full of honest worry and confusion.They tried to step forward to show concern, but were blocked by Yun Che's cloudy and impatient eyes."Big Brother." Xie Qingmo said, "You are not in good condition.""It's just... I've been practicing too hard recently and I'm a little tired."Yun Che's voice was dry and hoarse, with lingering weariness, and he looked at Xie Qingmo."Qing Mo, Qing Cheng... has been severely punished, and now he has the chance to become an immortal, which is a blessing for the sect. You... don't always target him."He completely forgot about his current terrible condition, and also forgot about Liu Qingcheng's previous murderous intention towards Xie Qingmo.Jinchen glanced over and asked, "What else do you want to say?"Yun Che choked and dared not say any more.Xie Qingmo looked at Yun Che quietly, looking at the unfamiliar turbidity and blinded stubbornness in his eyes.In those cold eyes, the friendship towards his fellow brothers eventually faded.He sighed very lightly, "..."Forget it.A rotten wood is hard to carve, and a serious illness is hard to cure.This last time, he gave it a chance.Xie Qingmo turned around and glanced at the worried fellow apprentices behind him, "You, follow me."---In the backyard of Wulai Peak, a secluded place."Liu Qingcheng," Xie Qingmo said straight to the point, "there's something strange about him.""Not only can it bewitch people's minds, it can also... secretly absorb other people's spiritual power and use it for its own benefit."Xing Yan was so shocked when he heard this that he grimaced, "Yes... no wonder, I was like a possessed person before! Whenever I was close to him, I felt uneasy, and I never thought deeply about it."He shuddered as he recalled his past blind protection of Liu Qingcheng and his increasingly weak body.Lan Yi's face turned pale and she asked anxiously, "Then...what about Senior Brother?"Shi Yan scratched his head, speaking with a simple yet somewhat confused honest manner, "…I think, Senior Brother, you seem quite…willing to do so?"Jinchen agreed, "That's absolutely true."Yun Che's obsessed and submissive look didn't look like he was being forced.Xing Yan thought of a more terrifying possibility, "...then...where is the master?"Thinking about Lingxu's unprincipled preference and protection for Liu Qingcheng, now...Thinking hard.Xie Qingmo held his forehead silently.Everyone: "..."Jinchen was leaning against a pillar nearby. Upon hearing the words, he looked like he was enjoying a good show. He spoke lazily, not stopping until his words were shocking."What else can I do? Congratulations.""Congratulations on what?" Xing Yan asked puzzledly.Jinchen: "I have both a master's wife and a master's wife."Xie Qingmo closed his eyes.Lan Yi was extremely anxious. "We must find a way. We can't let Liu Qingcheng continue to cause harm like this. Otherwise... should we go to the sect leader and report it?" Xie Qingmo shook his head, his eyes calm, "The Sect Master has already made an exception because of the Immortal Fate. It is hard to believe based on mere speculation without any evidence.""Moreover, Liu Qingcheng's methods are strange, and acting rashly may alert the enemy."He hesitated for a moment, "Let's go to the library. Look through all the books and secret records about evil magic, evil furnace skills, and other abnormal records. Xingyan, you have a personal experience of losing spiritual power. Come with me and Jinchen.""Lan Yi, Shi Yan," Xie Qingmo looked at them, "You two, keep a close eye on Liu Qingcheng and Senior Brother's every move, especially who they contact and where they go. If there are any abnormal fluctuations in spiritual power or strange behavior, report it to me immediately.""Remember, your own safety is the most important thing. Don't get too close, and don't let him notice you!""Yes." Everyone responded in unison.Lan Yi and Shi Yan looked at each other and quickly turned and left.Jinchen pulled Xie Qingmo's sleeve, "Xie Qingmo, ask me."Xie Qingmo looked back in confusion, "What?"Jinchen: "Ask me, I know what's going on."Xie Qingmo: “…”Xie Qingmo looked at Jinchen in surprise, "How do you know... well, you are an ancient swordsman, you have seen a lot."He held Jinchen's hand back, eyes full of expectation, "You say."[Wait a minute, what do you want to say about the fact that Heaven's Luck is too strong?] Ling Gungun stopped the host from having a love affair in time.Jinchen was silent.Jinchen seemed to want to say something but stopped himself.Jinchen: "In fact, Liu Qingcheng is a monster."Xing Yan took a deep breath, already convinced, "So it's the demon clan!"Xie Qingmo was lost in thought for a moment, "But why, when he was injured before, he didn't reveal a single bit of demonic energy?"Jinchen thought for a moment, "He needs... protection."Jinchen pointed to the sky.Then there was a rumble of thunder.Jinchen said confidently, "Look."Xie Qingmo suddenly realized, "So that's it."Xing Yan was angry, "Heaven is unfair!"Jin Chen added: "If you want to stop Liu Qingcheng, you might as well start from the root."Xing Yan was no longer angry, but rather horrified, "Master Jian Ling means to destroy this..."He pointed upwards as well.Jinchen: "...Your thoughts are very dangerous."Ling Gun Gun whispered in Jin Chen's ear, "Host, host, I have an idea."Jinchen: [Tell me more.][We also have the protagonist's aura weakening card.] Zero rolling sales, [You cooperate to win... Oh no, use it together with the primary lucky bag gift you snatched, and give it to the Lord God, maybe it can ruin the protagonist's luck.]The host gets points for using lucky bags, and gets delicious food by helping the boss guard high-level lucky bags.Big profit!Jin Chen clicked his tongue and played with Xie Qingmo's fingers, "Xie Qingmo, let's go to the library first."【？ ？ ？】 Ling Gungun put a big crying expression in front of Jinchen.Jinchen waved his hand and ignored him, "Let's go."Xie Qingmo naturally listened to him. Xing Yan's inquiring gaze moved back and forth between the man and the sword spirit. He patted his forehead as if he had suddenly realized something and followed.It turns out that everything in the story is true!As soon as they came out of Wulai Peak, the little pink ball crawled out of the spirit beast bag, stretched its head tremblingly towards the east, as if it sensed something.Xie Qingmo, who signed the contract, also had a premonition."Jinchen, wait a moment."Xie Qingmo stopped and looked to the east, "There seems to be demonic energy over there."[Oh! It appears, the protagonist's demon clan opportunity, the second furnace, the demon king! ]Zero was excited.
