Ji Qingzhuo looked at the floor of the room behind Shen Rongyu. The moonlight had fallen and turned into frost, and a bit of cool night wind was blowing.

She felt extremely tired, probably because of the cold wind. She huddled softly in the thick quilt, feeling that her whole body was melting.

Ji Qingzhuo called Shen Rongyu and stopped talking. Shen Rongyu responded immediately without looking at him, because he discovered that after today's practice, the scattered power he had recovered had accumulated, allowing him to break through to a level equivalent to that of a monk. Infancy.

The level of his cultivation cannot be distinguished by simple Qi refining, foundation building, golden elixir, Nascent Soul, leaving the body, and transcending tribulations, because he does not have such a thing as the inner palace, which is the key to monks' cultivation.

Ji Qingzhuo, on the other hand, is now at the sixth level of Qi Refining. After practicing for a while, she will be able to build her own inner palace at the foundation building stage.

Shen Rongyu didn't expect that his strength would recover so quickly. Practicing with Ji Qingzhuo seemed to... really speed up his recovery.

Covering up these doubts in his heart, Shen Rongyu turned his head, looked at Ji Qingzhuo, and responded: "Yes." The

red stain on the back of his neck dimly lit up under the moonlight, but he himself did not notice it. , but he felt a little cold, maybe because he was sweating from practicing.

Looking at Ji Qingzhuo again, her eyes were filled with water, and the broken hair on her forehead was soaked with sweat. She always looked like this after practicing.

Shen Rongyu had forgotten what he wanted to do here.

Ji Qingzhuo was still lying in Shen Rongyu's arms, because she had no strength, didn't want to move, and couldn't lift her hands.

Shen Rongyu laid her down on the bed with gentle movements, and Ji Qingzhuo obediently let him do what he wanted. His whole body was wrapped in the quilt, only his delicate and beautiful face was exposed.

Her eyes were still unfocused, a little dull, which made her expression indifferent.

——It was as if what happened in the practice space had never happened at all. Her emotions came slowly but went away quickly.

If Red Qiliu saw her like this, he would definitely be angry, but Shen Rongyu seemed to have been used to it, and he didn't care about Ji Qingzhuo's reaction.

Ji Qingzhuo blinked, her eyelashes quivering like butterfly wings, and she said, "Thank you, Brother Xiaoyu."

He gathered up his large robe, stood up, picked up the Snow Burial Sword beside the bed, and said to Ji Qing Zhuo said: "I'm going back."

Ji Qingzhuo said to him: "Okay."

When Shen Rongyu left, he knew that his back was to Ji Qingzhuo, so he pulled the skirt of his clothes very tightly. He didn't want Ji Qingzhuo to let him go. I saw the red mark on the back of my neck.

Although Ji Qingzhuo was easy to deceive, and he could conceal the cause of the Hong Tan mark with just a few words, but for no reason, Shen Rongyu just didn't want to expose it.

Ji Qingzhuo watched him leave. Her eyes fell on his hanging sleeves, watching his knuckles press against the door, and then he gently covered them, taking away the full moonlight in the room.

She was not thinking about anything, her mind was empty.

Ji Qingzhuo is so aimless, not knowing where to go. Previously, she wanted to get the high-grade fairy elixir for Maomao, so she practiced hard every day, but now the annual test has almost settled, and her results are She is firmly in the top three. If her grades in the training class were not too low, she might be able to surpass Meng Yaolan.

For her, some things don't seem to require too much effort, because of her extraordinary talent, almost everything she wants can be easily obtained.

But her desire is very low. She doesn't want anything, so she won't work hard to get it.

There are still two years until the sect assessment. These two years require the disciples to go out for training. This is what Ji Qingzhuo is most afraid of.

After finally adapting to Baishui Island, we have to leave here. Are all the monks in the world of immortality so busy?

At this time, the system's voice rang in her mind: "Host, actually I forgot to tell you something before. If you can successfully conquer Shen Rongyu, you will not only return to your original world safely, but also get a huge amount of money." Monetary reward."

"But you don't seem to care much about this, so I didn't say anything." The system said to Ji Qingzhuo.

"Yes, I don't really care." Ji Qingzhuo said softly, "If it's enough to live on, that's enough." "

Host, I don't know what you want." The system said, "It seems that you are interested in returning to your original world. I don't have a strong will."

"If you can live, you can live anywhere." Ji Qingzhuo's tone was still calm, "Here, go to the city, or go to the countryside, as long as you can be quiet, go back or not. , it doesn't matter."

"You don't have any desire, and I can't use anything to make you take the initiative to help me, so host, why are you willing to help me?" the system asked.

"Since everything is fine, let me help you complete the strategy mission." Ji Qingzhuo said to the system, "Didn't you say that if I don't continue, the world will be destroyed by him?" "Yes

. "The system replied, "You don't seem to care whether the world of immortality is destroyed or not."

"He saved me." Ji Qingzhuo's voice was still so cold, without even any emotional ups and downs.

She took a deep breath and asked the system about her long-standing questions: "System, sometimes you are stupid. If you know that Xiaoyu will destroy this world in the future, then why... don't let me find the right time. , kill him?"

Ji Qingzhuo's way of thinking about problems has always been so simple. She doesn't understand why with feelings, the original bad person will no longer do bad things. If you want the bad person to never do bad things, then the simplest way is , doesn't it mean to completely eliminate him?

"Host, this is a very interesting question." The system answered her, "But host, I am the incarnation of world consciousness. Even if he cuts off all his connections with this world, but... as long as he has existed, there will be "

I think, even if he overturned the mountains and rivers, allowed the evil spirits transformed from the ghost energy of the earth to cause trouble to the world, and watched the world be destroyed by his hands, but... he seems to have such a reason, he should not be treated like this Kill before everything starts." The system said, "Everything in the world has cause and effect. Although I don't know the reason, I firmly know that he has a chance to be saved." "Listen, this is why I choose to help

you The reason." Ji Qingzhuo said the last words to the system.

She had known for a long time that the system's logic was wrong from the beginning, but she unexpectedly... liked it very much.

Ji Qingzhuo closed his eyes and fell asleep. He was really tired today.

She woke up very late the next day, because all the courses officially ended after the test. After that, she had to rely on the monks to practice on their own. Now she didn't have to go to morning classes every day.

Ji Qingzhuo added some fodder to Maomao in the yard and fed it some of its favorite fruits. Maomao's movements became slower and slower. It seemed that the low-grade fairy elixir could not last long.

She touched its head and began to think about what she should do next. Should she go with Shen Rongyu to practice? Can he accept himself following him? How are the trial scores that affect the internal assessment three years later calculated?

The courses Ji Qingzhuo had taken before had clear score definitions, but this performance, which was based on external experience, did not seem to have a clear scoring standard, which made Ji Qingzhuo, who was good at calculation, a little distressed.

A few days later, the assessment of the formation class was re-conducted, but this time, the person who presided over the assessment of the formation class was not an elder. Jiang Qianke was dead. None of the other active elders were familiar with the assessment process, so Ye Duanhong handed over the task of presiding over the formation class assessment to Shen Rongyu.

Since that day in Shuiyun Peak, the mist in the mountains has dissipated. The peach blossoms that were still in full bloom, supported by the power of the formation, have withered one after another because they felt the autumn mood. The branches that were originally covered with beautiful peach blossoms have fallen heavily. His head is now bare, and even the mountain streams flowing in the mountains have dried up a lot.

Shuiyun Peak is now in a depressed state. Ji Qingzhuo came here with Shen Rongyu. In front of the main entrance of Shuiyun Peak, Shen Rongyu and Ji Qingzhuo said goodbye first and prepared to go.

Ji Qingzhuo stood alone in front of Shuiyun Peak. She was a little afraid to step in, because as soon as she walked in, she seemed to be able to think of Jiang Qianke's eyes looking at her that day, with fear and hatred. She was very Fearing such a look, Jiang Qianke was even scarier than the human-faced spider.

She hesitated for a long time, but finally plucked up the courage and walked in. Behind the desolate rocky path, she saw a familiar figure among the sparse branches.

"Is Miss Ji still afraid of the accident that happened in Shuiyun Peak that day?" Meng Yaolan stood in the withered peach forest and looked at her and said.

"Yes." When Ji Qingzhuo saw it was her, he said hello and answered honestly.

"He is my master." Meng Yaolan said to Ji Qingzhuo.

"Miss Meng..." Ji Qingzhuo doesn't know how to comfort others. Jiang Qianke is dead, and she knows very well that if he hadn't wanted to kill her, he wouldn't have died in the peach blossom mist.

"I have only called him master for a year." Meng Yaolan's tone was soft, filled with sorrow and pity, "He died." "

Yes." Ji Qingzhuo responded dryly. She could not empathize with Meng Yaolan. So she couldn't say comforting words such as "It's such a pity to die."

"I will find the murderer." Meng Yaolan said firmly after all. She raised her head and asked Ji Qingzhuo, "Miss Ji, I'm sorry to ask you this question, but... that day, before you fell into coma, , did you really not see anything?"

Meng Yaolan was very smart and asked this question very clearly, and Ji Qingzhuo happened to be... unable to lie. She could only answer yes or no to this question, and her answer It must be "yes", and she cannot be silent, because silence is also "yes".

Ji Qingzhuo pursed her lips and tapped her toes on the ground, suddenly feeling a little panicked.

Of course she saw other things, Jiang Qianke's persistent murderous intent, and the human-faced spiders filling the entire space.

Ji Qingzhuo was helpless. She had done nothing wrong. Jiang Qianke wanted to kill her, so what obligation did she have to protect him? What's more, she doesn't have the ability to protect him.

So what is the point of Meng Yaolan asking himself this question?

Ji Qingzhuo was silent. She thought that her response was also a confirmation that she had indeed seen it.

But fortunately, at the end of this desolate path, there was another quarrel.

"Tell me, did you do it on purpose? Why didn't you notice that such a big mandrill was attached to the stone grass?! You are my maid and have the obligation to protect me, do you understand?" Qiu Mingxue asked The sound was sharp, she had been recovering from her injuries for several days, and she could finally go out today.

The silver bracelet on Yingxiu's wrist shook, and she whispered: "Princess, I didn't notice it, it was too hidden..."

Ji Qingzhuo breathed a sigh of relief, because the quarrel between the two people quickly attracted Meng Yaolan's attention. .
