A familiar figure

  Zhao Gongming nodded and said: "I've been here for less than half a day, I only saw that the palace was empty and no one was around, how would I know if someone came or not?"

  Dà Jīn Wū didn't believe him and looked at him skeptically. Tiān Péng Yuán Shuài walked forward and said in a low voice, "Your Highness, let me ask instead."

  Dajinwu glanced at Tianpeng Marshal, but didn't say anything. Tianpeng Marshal smiled knowingly and turned to Zhao Gongming, saying: "Daozhang, the Heavenly Court recently had a serious fugitive escape, and I suspect it's related to Yuanyuan, the remnant of the One Qi Immortal."

  Zhao Gongming uttered an "oh" and only then did Bi Xiawu not tell him in detail what had happened during this time, now his curiosity rose. He continued: "What does it have to do with my senior brother? I remember that Yu Shixiong rarely interferes with trivial matters, especially those in Heaven."

  "We also didn't want to suspect you, but indeed someone used your magical treasure to rescue a serious offender from the Heavenly Court."

  "What's a treasure?" Zhao Gongming slightly furrowed his brow and continued, "But what about that golden light?"

  "Zhèng yī qì xiān yú yuán de fǎ bǎo jīn guāng cuò."

  Translation: "It is the golden light of the treasure of the law, the remaining yuan of the immortal Qi Xian."

  Zhao Gongming's eyebrows relaxed, and he was indeed puzzled in his heart. He knew that the Golden Light Chopping Knife was Yu Yuan's treasured family heirloom, and he also understood Yu Yuan's personality very well - he had a special fondness for treasures, valuing them more than his own life. So why would his Golden Light Chopping Knife go to rescue a serious offender from the Heavenly Court?

  Yu Yuan's cultivation was such that even if he were to save someone from among a hundred heavenly soldiers, he wouldn't have lost his family heirloom. How could this be? He suddenly understood.

  It was Bi Xiao who saved Yang Jia, and it must have been her who took away Yu Yuan's treasure. Who knows whether she borrowed or stole it? Zhao Gongming couldn't help but sigh in his heart! Among the three sisters, only Bi Xiao didn't cultivate properly, so even after a million years of cultivation, it would be difficult for her to achieve true results. This had always been Zhao Gongming's headache.

  At this moment, another disaster has arrived. If the master finds out, he will surely be furious! Tian Pengyuan Marshal saw him deep in thought and asked: "Is Daozhang thinking of something?"

  Zhao Gongming hastily said: "I was just thinking about how Brother Master could lose such a precious treasure?"

  "Lost?" Tian Peng Marshal looked at Zhao Gongming in surprise, how could someone lose their own treasure? It's like he himself would misplace his nine-toothed rake.

  Zhao Gongming sighed, "This golden armor is indeed the property of my senior brother Yu Yuan. The marshal doesn't know that my senior brother has a big problem, this problem has been there for thousands of years and can't be changed."

  "What's wrong? What's going on?"

  "It's just this careless habit of yours, I'm not afraid of the general laughing at me. Sometimes even Master can misplace himself, let alone a precious object?"

  "Does it mean that someone picked up the treasure of the Immortal Qi and rescued Yang Jian?"

  Zhao Gongming smiled and said: "This possibility is also very great."

  "Right, right, it's indeed very big, indeed very big! I didn't expect you still have this kind of problem."

  The two men's conversation was heard clearly by Da Jinwu, who shouted: "Nonsense! This is the first time I've ever heard of someone losing themselves!"

  Zhao Gongming said to his brother: "In this vast world, there is nothing strange that does not exist!"

  "It was clearly one of the treasures borrowed from Yu Yuan in Bixia Palace's Three Xiao, which saved the demon Yang Jia."

  "Yang Jia? Zhao Gongming feigned surprise, then said: "This heavenly court's serious offender, is this the name? I and my three sisters have been cultivating for thousands of years, never heard of this name."

  The three sisters didn't even know this person, how could they borrow their senior brother's treasure to save a stranger? And then lose the treasure too? Does Your Highness think this is laughable?"

  The big golden crow was panting heavily, and Zhao Gongming's words made it choke, but it didn't know what to say. Tian Peng Marshal looked at its appearance and strongly held back his laughter.

  "Go!" The Great Golden Crow flapped its wings and flew away on a cloud.

  Marshal Tian Peng turned around and smiled slightly at Zhao Gongming before leaving, saying: "The Taoist priest bids farewell."

  ......

  "Your Highness, what should we do now?"

  Dajin Wuyi's face was already black and blue with rage, the gentle breeze on the cloud couldn't blow away his anger! The disciples under Tongtian Sect Master were all arrogant and proud, few people dared to give him such a look.

  Wait!

  "What?" Tian Peng Marshal looked at Da Jinwu in confusion.

  Dajin Wuleng let out a cold hum, staring at the Bixiao Palace under the Yueshi Mountain, and said in a deep voice: "The demon Yang Jia must be hiding in this palace. General, you bring 5,000 troops to camp near Penglai Island. Once Yuanyuan returns to Penglai Island, he will be finished."

  Marshal Tian Peng asked: "Your Highness wants to leave 5,000 troops to surround Mount Bi Shi?"

  The Golden Crow nodded and said nothing more! Tian Peng Marshal stood beside him, even able to hear the sound of his gritted teeth. If Yang Jian were in front of him at this moment, Jinwu would have torn him apart and eaten him alive.

  ......

  The ground was not damp, and there were glowing things on the walls. Yang Jian asked Bi Xiao, but she didn't know what they were either. She just said that it had been like this since she was born.

  Those faint lights absorbed all the damp air in the tunnel. The two of them walked for three or four hours in the tunnel, but still couldn't reach the end!

  Two people sat in the tunnel and rested for a while. Yang Jia saw that Bi Qiang's face did not show tension, but instead had a smile on her face. This girl was so optimistic, and Yang Jia's worries also eased up a lot.

  Yang Jian asked: "Bi Xiao, aren't you afraid?"

  "Bai Xiao smiled and said: 'Afraid? I've grown up to be this big, and I've only been afraid of one person. There has never been a second person who can make me afraid.'"

  "Afraid of just one person? This person must be very formidable, right? Or is he very fierce? I wonder who this person is?"

  "He's my ancestor, and I feel a bit uncomfortable all over when I see him."

  Tongtian Sect Master? This is indeed a figure that can make anyone afraid and respectful, and I don't know when I'll have the chance to meet the Tongtian Sect Master.

  Yang Jian lowered his head and said guiltily: "Bixiao, I'm sorry. You've also had to flee with me because of me."

  Bixiao shook her head, patted Yang Jian's shoulder with her hand and said generously: "You say this, I don't like to hear it. After so many years, you are the first mortal friend of mine! Besides, we can't be considered as fleeing in distress, right? Look at us, we're both so happy, who escapes in distress with a smile?"

  After she finished speaking, she couldn't help but laugh again. Yang Jian looked at her pair of eyes that seemed to speak a thousand words and was mesmerized. How is Sanmei doing now? Is she also as optimistic as Bi Xiao?

  Yang Jian was somewhat worried about Zhao Gongming and asked: "Will your senior brother get into trouble?"

  "No way!" Bi Xiao replied firmly, she understood Zhao Gongming, and his ability to handle things had always been her model. Even if the Heavenly Court sent a hundred thousand elite soldiers, they wouldn't be able to harm Zhao Gongming.

  Bixiao looked at Yang Jian's worried expression and continued: "Don't worry, they wouldn't dare to move against my Shixiong!"

  Before the sealing of the heavens, the Heavenly Court was indeed not powerful enough to confront the two forces of Tongtian and Yuanshi. It was always the Great Golden Crow that came down to capture him. If it were him again this time, he would have experienced the temper of the Great Golden Crow, who only had the sacred edict in his eyes! If they didn't see eye-to-eye and a fight broke out, Zhao Gongming's magical powers would be too deep for them to handle. How could Zhao Gongming possibly be a match for so many heavenly soldiers?

  But he couldn't go back, and at this point, going back would be like using a mantis to stop a chariot or hitting a stone with an egg.

  While hesitating, Bi Xiao stood up and said: "Let's leave here quickly, if the heavenly soldiers discover this passage, we'll be in trouble."

  ......

  "Hmm? This place is quite nice, with great mountains and rivers. It's truly a place that I, a humble monk, have been dreaming of."

  Yu Ding Zhen Ren put his hands on his waist, enjoying the scenery around him. The mountains were high and the water was green! A gentle breeze blew up his worn-out Daoist robe, and he fanned himself with a Ba Gua fan in one hand, while scratching his straw-like hair with the other.

  "Alas! Can't get to Yuquan Mountain, and I don't know if that kid has arrived at Yuquan Mountain?"

  "What if he really did walk to Yuquan Mountain on foot? If I, a poor monk, were to go back on my word like this, wouldn't I lose face? If it gets out that I, a poor monk, went back on my word and got fat, won't I become the laughing stock of the three realms?"

  He let out a sigh and said helplessly: "If I'm going to be a laughing stock, then so be it! At least it's better than being stuck with the Heavenly Court's ** troubles."

  It seemed that he had an endless stream of words in his mouth, and sometimes he muttered to himself without even knowing what he was saying. He no longer thought about Yang Jia and strode into the mountains.

  They walked for less than a moment, and only saw two people walking towards them on the mountain road ahead. Yu Ding Zhen Ren stopped in his tracks, raised his Bagua fan, and looked over, but could only make out that it was a man and a woman.

  "Ah, I'm getting old, even my eyesight is getting worse!" He looked at the two running figures and shook his head with a sigh: "Young people are all so naive, not mature at all!"

  But then the figure drew closer and closer! Yu Ding True Person finally saw clearly!

  "What? How is it that kid?! It's all over!" He exclaimed in surprise, his face a bitter smile, the octagonal fan in his hand almost falling to the ground. At first, he had always emphasized the word "fate" to Yang Jian, but now he was desperately trying to get rid of this fate.

  But fate is destined by heaven, if there is then there is! If there isn't then there isn't!

  Yang Jian and Bi Xiao walked out of the underground tunnel and saw a person running in front of them, also seemingly fleeing for their lives.

  Bixiao said curiously: "Yang Jiaolong, look, it seems like there's someone else running for their life up ahead too."

  Yang Jian looked ahead and said, "Why does this person's back look so familiar? I feel like I've seen it somewhere before?"

  Bixiao glanced at Yang Jian and said, "Have you seen this person? I'll chase after him and see if he recognizes you." After a smile, she used her footwork to employ her magical powers.

  A streak of smoke flashed by like lightning as Jade Ding True Person charged forward.
