The entirety of Azure Dragon Island was illuht patrols that should've been increased for the Grand Coue cultivators had practically becoe co spread around — so that de that the Island Lord had experienced a Qi deviation… The reat azure dragon was sealed under the island, that the great dragon had escaped somehow and was out to look for food, that the bunch of cultivators on the island would only be enough for aWanqiu kept a constant distance of three zhang fro to wait for theainst her But Shuikeng, as being held like a package in her hand, was quite a bitaround, so she couldn't help crying Fortunately, Li Yun had used pills to suppress the yao blood in her beforehand If they'd left her to cry without inhibition all along the way, the entirety of Azure Dragon Island would've experienced an earthquake It most definitely would be spread around as so Wanqiu led them past the mountain slope of the Lecture Hall and into a forest She stopped in front of a cluster of stone tablets

This place was called the ‘Forest of Tablets', in which stone tablets were erected in on Island who had either ascended or perished It was so Qian and the others had heard of it before, but since they were only guest cultivators and not the disciples of Azure Dragon Island, they wouldn't co Wanqiu loosened her hand and tossed Shuikeng aside After crying along the way, any fear in Shuikeng's heart had been exhausted, leaving only shock and anger TheWanqiu's hand and bared her teeth, about to bite her

But before Shuikeng's teeth could close in, Tang Wanqiu suddenly looked down at her In thisZhenren, who rarely showed much of her emotions, had red rims around her eyes It see in front of a child, so she clenched her teeth and forcefully put on a scowl It didn'ther pain, instead giving her the iuardian deity [1] with fierce eyes

Afterwasn't inti the way a sensitive little beast would She silently retracted her ed back by her concerned Eldest shi+xiong

With her back toward the Wanqiu spoke stiffly, “Under the Island Lord's order, I will send you away fro was surprised, “Senior, what in the world has happened on the Island? Even though us juniors aren't very useful, we've still gone soIf there is anything we can do to help…”

When she heard hihtest bit She turned back to look at him and said in a flat voice, “Sect Leader Yan, you only need to keep that grace in your heart At this moment, protect your own life first!”

After that, she pointed at the ground and exclairound on the Forest of Tablets suddenly ruround, its inside pitch black, soe

Tang Wanqiu ertips, sparks of fla the walls with a snap of her fingers, instantly illued thelance with Li Yun Li Yun frowned and said in a low voice, “shi+xiong, follow her for now”

Ever since the Island Lord showed his face for the Grand Co was off But he didn't know any inside information, so he was co Shuikeng, iping her snot with his sleeve, so he didn't even have the strength to be confused

Yan Zheng over to the few Daoist children who had followed, and couldn't help looking back Cheng Qian stood steadily at the very back, eyes originally gazing in the Lecture Hall's direction As if sensing Yan Zhengave him a nod It seemed like even if the heavens were to collapse and the earth were to crack, he was prepared

But Yan Zheng knew that he wasn't actually prepared, he just didn't care either way, so he couldn't help laughing a little But after he finished laughing, he suddenly felt a bit cal held his sword fir Wanqiu

There wasn'tat the forefront, was still alright, but Yan Zheng the way The wall torches on both sides had been enhanced with char when people passed by nobody spoke a word along the hich made the atmosphere seeround As they kept circling around, Cheng Qian ht when he felt that they were about to leave Azure Dragon Island, another flight of stairs appeared before the up and down, the space so crahtly The others had to practically crawl their way out, the group of cultivators throwing aside all dignity as they squeezed through the passage

Li Yun finally couldn't help speaking up, “Wonder where she's taking us…”

Yan Zheng shook his head He turned back with soood care of our shi+ this line, Han Yuan behind hi

Han Yuan hurriedly patted around his robes and procured a chain of pendants They were the Soul-Searching Needles that he'd found a few years ago at the Celestial Market The tips of the needles were poisoned, so they had been put inside sh the eye of the needles At a glance, they had the unique air only found on beggars who roa back on it, when Han Yuan first got the Soul-Searching Needles, he'd thought that since there were so many people who look down on them on this island, the needles would probably be used up quickly But he always had his shi+xiong to protect him, so the three needles had re of needles around Shuikeng's neck and said, “If anyone tries to har and stab them with this”

As they spoke, they'd reached the end of the stone steps Tang Wanqiu struck at a piece of stone, shattering the two chi thick stone slab into pieces This senior was practically a firecracker that charged around without a care Yan Zheng had almost lost his patience, so he only followed her out silently

The ust of sea wind blowing against his face He looked closer and realized that this place was a secret port There was only one boat here Looking carefully, the boat wasn't that noteworthy, but it seeht If it hadn't been so close in front of their eyes, theyhere

“Get on,” Tang Wanqiu said, “There's no boatman, but your sect has always been well-versed in chars out yourselves If you'd all been able to fly on your swords, it wouldn't have been so troublesoiven the ireatest, and I'm the second' When these words left her mouth, they should have carried soely, she didn't seem to mean that this time

She turned to look at the pitch black sky and the even darker sea, and said in a low, barely audible voice, “Too soon, there's not enough time…”

For a brief moment, her entire person seeht Her skirt and hair swayed lightly in the sea wind, alile

After a long while, Tang Wanqiu finally said, “That day, I'd actually seen Han Muchun, but I didn't dare to identify hiht be… a bit crude as a person, so I couldn't iure out if he wanted to be identified”

But she had always been clu people Before she could make up herwas stunned for a reat battle against the de Wanqiu, “You… uh, are a bit sier”

As she spoke, she lowered her head slightly and tucked a strand of her long hair behind her ear This was a gesture that irls would do unconsciously, but when she did it, there see past behind it

After saying those words in the gentlest manner she'd ever shown in her life, her attitude i, “After leaving this place, don't go back to Fuyao Mountain Go train yourself aood place to continue cultivating Don't ever let anyone else know you're fro asked experi since beconificant small sect? Even if we tell others about it, would anyone know?”

“The insignificant people would naturally be ignorant of it, but those who should be in the know, and even those who shouldn't be in the knoill be aware,” Tang Wanqiu said, “Don't dawdle, get on the boat and leave…”

Before she could finish her words, a pillar of light suddenly shot toward the heavens For a moment, the entire island turned white due to the intensity of the light, that they couldn't even open their eyes

Tang Wanqiu's pupils narrowed, a look of worry on her face

Right then, Cheng Qian, who had been standing at a roup, suddenly straightened up and raised Shuangren slowly, “Who?”
