Chapter 175 Encountering Ning Qingying

"Did you find anything else?"

Zhao Mu asked.

Xing Ziyue said: "There should be more detailed records in the library of Jianxian Pavilion, but the authority requirements are very high. I borrowed Wenyan's disciple nameplate to get in, but I can only check the information at the bottom. It’s hard to go to the next level.”

Shi Rui said: "I have recently practiced a mind-telling technique. I wanted to use it on Wenyan and ask her to find information for us, but Xing Ziyue stopped my plan."

Zhao Mu was ashamed: "Good job of stopping it, telepathy is not a good thing, not to mention that Wenyan is the granddaughter of the great elder of Sword Immortal Pavilion. How can she not be protected by a powerful defensive magic weapon? If you use telepathy on her, the consequences will be disastrous. "

Shi Rui shrugged: "I know only a little bit, so I made a careful plan. According to my assumptions, there is at least an 80% success rate."

"Your thoughts...you are truly worthy of being a disciple of the Demon Sect."

Zhao Mu shook his head. The Demon Sect has a free atmosphere and never restricts the techniques practiced by its disciples. This does not seem to be a good thing.

After the empress returns to power, Zhao Mu must give her some constructive suggestions.

After all, he is now considered half the master of the Demon Sect and shoulders the responsibility of carrying forward the Demon Sect.

"Junior Brother Zhao, the sword trial meeting will begin tomorrow. Do you really want to participate?"

Xing Ziyue looked slightly worried and said: "I heard from Wen Yan that the contestants in this sword test competition are more powerful than in previous years. There are three people who are strong in overcoming the tribulation. When combined, there are even more masters in the realm of refining the void. I know you are very strong, but in this situation, it is difficult for even you to take advantage. "

"Don't worry, the empress' strength has initially recovered, and I will participate in the sword trial meeting with her." Zhao Mu explained.

Hearing this, Xing Ziyue breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's very good. Since the empress took action personally, the result is a sure thing."

"Isn't it true that there are three powerful people who have transcended the tribulation and are also participating? I'm afraid it's that easy." Zhao Mu said.

"There is also a difference between overcoming the tribulation and overcoming the tribulation. Our empress is the master of the Demon Sect. Looking at the entire Xianwu Continent in terms of strength and means, we can also be ranked high. But ordinary tribulation monks simply want to live longer. How can he be the opponent of our empress?"

It seems that Xing Ziyue also has great faith in Empress Qingyun.

Perhaps in the minds of the disciples of the Demon Sect, Empress Qingyun is a special existence that cannot be determined based on common sense.

"I don't know how the situation will change in the future. It is not appropriate for you two to stay in the Sword Immortal Pavilion any longer. During the Sword Trial Conference, you will find an opportunity to say goodbye to Wen Yan and go to Zhao State first. I will go to you and meet you at that time. ”

Zhao Mu didn't want Xing Ziyue and Shi Rui to be in danger, so it would be safer for them to leave the Sword Immortal Pavilion now.

Shi Rui nodded: "I understand. It just so happens that I also want to go home and visit my sister."

"Say hello to Shi Man for me." Zhao Mu said, and gave each of them a bottle of elixir, which slightly increased their favorability.

After bidding farewell to the two of them, Zhao Mu was about to go back to find Wu Miaomiao when he accidentally bumped into an acquaintance halfway.

It was Ning Qingying, Wenyan’s senior sister.

"My benefactor, it's really you. I thought I had seen the wrong person!"

Ning Qingying was overjoyed and walked towards Zhao Mu and asked: "My dear friend, are you here to participate in the sword trial meeting? Why don't you say hello in advance so that I can receive you."

"Shh!"

Zhao Mu immediately took Ning Qingying's slender arm away from the crowd and came to a secluded place.

"Keep your voice down. I came here deliberately to keep a low profile. I'm just afraid that I'll get caught by that junior sister of yours who promised me my life as soon as I opened my mouth. I saved your life, so you can't betray me."

Ning Qingying was stunned at first, and then she couldn't help but smile bitterly.

It seems that last time in the Forest of Ten Thousand Demons, Wen Yan scared her benefactor by promising herself to him. If this girl knew about it, she would probably be very sad.

"Don't worry, benefactor, I will keep it a secret for you. In fact, that girl Wenyan is not mentally ill as you think. She is a complete beauty control. It just so happens that benefactor is kind to her and is the type she likes. , that’s why she impulsively said offensive words, please don’t blame her.”

"It's not important. I've incurred too many love debts in my life. I just don't want to drag her into the water again." Zhao Mu said with a melancholy expression, looking up to the moon.

Ning Qingying saw the cold moonlight shining on Zhao Mu's chiseled face. There seemed to be many past events hidden in his eyes, which made people want to pry into them.

At this moment, Ning Qingying couldn't help but feel a little flustered, and her breathing became three times faster subconsciously.

"Well... my benefactor, I know you are not someone who wants to repay your kindness, but I still want to express my gratitude to you. Can you please come to my residence? Qingying wants to cook for you personally." Sir, I would like to express my gratitude.”

this……

Zhao Mu glanced at Ning Qingying's favorability score.

85…

A bit high.

I'm afraid this rice will have a different taste.

"Won't you disturb me?"

"It's okay. Qingying lives alone and there is no one else at home."

"That's okay, I happen to be a little hungry."

I haven't eaten meat for a long time, so I'm really hungry.

Since Wu Miaomiao was with Wu Qiyuan, Zhao Mu didn't have to go back.

Not long after, Zhao Mu followed Ning Qingying to her residence.

It is located near a sea of ​​flowers in the northeast of the Hidden Sword Valley.

"The scenery here is nice, but why is it so secluded?" Zhao Mu looked around and found that there were no traces of people around at all. It can be seen that few people come here usually.

Speaking of which, since Ning Qingying is Wen Yan's senior sister, she should also be an official disciple of Sword Immortal Pavilion, shouldn't she live in the Holy Land of Stars?

Ning Qingying explained: "My identity is actually a bit special. I am not an official disciple of the Sword Immortal Pavilion. Strictly speaking, I am actually a disciple of the Upside Down Mountain."

Hanging upside down?

It is also one of the five holy places of the human race. Its leader is Fairy Ninghua, who is also a ruthless person. Zhao Mu has read many records about her life and deeds in books. She has a very high prestige among the human race, even more than the sword. Divine Comedy Willow.

The fact that Ning Qingying was a disciple of Daoxuan Mountain really surprised Zhao Mu.

"It's a long story. My father is from Daoxuanshan, but my mother is from Jianxian Pavilion. She is the adopted daughter of the great elder. She is Wenyan's aunt, so I can also be regarded as Wenyan's unrelated cousin. , some things happened that year, my father... betrayed Daoxuanshan, and I was sent to Sword Immortal Pavilion for foster care by my mother. "

It may sound complicated.

Zhao Mu consoled him: "All the past events that are unbearable to look back on will eventually become a joke for you and me in our old age. There is no need to be in awe except life and death."

"Except for life and death, there is no need to fear..."

Ning Qingying recited Zhao Mu's words, with a clear understanding in her eyes.

She smiled and welcomed Zhao Mu into the small courtyard she had carefully built, and said: "My benefactor, our reunion today is not just by chance, but perhaps also a bit destined. I want to toast you with a few toasts, and I ask my benefactor to be kind to you."

"good."
