I'm useless, but my apprentices are all gods who protect others.

After the heavenly punishment was lifted, Duan Yanyao's cultivation gradually returned to its peak.

Just to stay with Cen Wanwan, he would usually take the initiative to suppress his cultivation to prevent her from saying anything like asking him to become a disciple again.

Duan Yanyao closed his eyes, calmed down, and connected to the five senses of the ghosts nearby.

He has extremely strong suppression of ghosts and monsters, and can see what all ghosts see, but the other party cannot disobey.

After searching around, I was sure that the person was not in Qingcheng.

Duan Yanyao continued to search, and suddenly saw Cen Wanwan's figure flashing through a perspective, but she seemed to be with a group of people. Cen Wanwan was lying on a giant wolf, seemingly very tired.

It seemed that the group was going down the mountain. Duan Yanyao carefully looked at the surrounding scene and determined that he had never seen such scenery in the suburbs of Qingcheng.

Duan Yanyao frowned, glanced at the scars on his hands, and thought that he would have to leave a mark on Cen Wanwan next time.

If she gets lost again next time, the mark will allow Duan Yanyao to find her location immediately.

There seemed to be only one ghost in that place, and the perspective was very single. Duan Yanyao could only see Cen Wanwan being carried by the giant wolf, and he couldn't see him any further away.

All the injuries on his body were not healed, and he still ran out to wander.

Duan Yanyao casually called the ghost gate, and several ghosts fell out. Before he could curse who suddenly called the ghost gate and caused them to fall, he looked up and saw that it was Duan Yanyao, the ancestor, and they all knelt down to say hello.

One of them plucked up the courage to ask: "I wonder what Master Guizu wants to give us?"

Duan Yanyao said casually: "Is there any secret place nearby?"

Cen Wanwan left for less than a day and should still be in Qingcheng.

It’s just that there really isn’t one near that scenery, so we’ll start from the secret realm.

Gui Cha: "Yes. There are seven secret realms in Qingcheng. The Sword Master Secret Realm of Zhuiyun Palace, the Treasure Treasure Secret Realm of Kunlun Pavilion..."

Duan Yanyao threw the portrait of Sheng Yi to the ghost servants: "Get some ghosts to find this person for me. If you find him, there will be a heavy reward."

Gui Cha nodded repeatedly: "Then we found her, shall we bring her directly to you?"

Duan Yanyao: "Just tell me her whereabouts. I will pick her up personally."

Because of Cen Wanwan's temperament, he would not leave without saying goodbye, but he didn't come home all night, which made people feel somewhat worried.

If she really had something important, Duan Yanyao would naturally not disturb her.

But first make sure she is safe.

……

The disciples who passed the examination collectively went down the mountain. At this time, the giant wolf let Sheng Yi and Chu Qiongxin sit on its back and took them down the mountain as before.

Chu Qiong recalled Shenyi's moves when she just hit back at her younger brother, and her movements were also very similar: "Have you ever practiced boxing?"

That was something I learned during a physical training competition in the underground martial arts field. Shenyi integrated it after returning home and internalized it into her own moves, which she found quite handy in using them.

Sheng Yi: "I learned it from fighting with others before, so it's not considered authentic."

Chu Qiongxin raised her eyebrows: "It's barely decent, but it's a good fight."

Then Chu Qiong’s focus shifted: “Do you often fight with others?”

Sheng Yi thought about it, and it seemed that he had fought with people several times since his rebirth, so he nodded: "Yeah."

Chu Qiong was puzzled: "Why fight with them? Apart from being injured, can you get any benefits?"

Chu Qiongxin almost blurted out "powerless people like you", but she still swallowed the words.

In her opinion, people like Cheng Yin should keep a low profile. After all, no one will cover her up if she gets into trouble.

Sheng Yi then opened his eyes and looked at Chu Qiongxin: "Just like what happened just now, if I don't fight back, I will only be abused even more."

Chu Qiongxin: "But not everyone is as unreasonable as them."

Shengyi looked into Chu Qiongxin's eyes and just smiled.

As expected, she is still a pampered little princess.

Sheng Yi didn't want to argue with her, so he just sighed softly: "Princess, we are different."

He is not from the same world at all.

Chu Qiong was slightly stunned, but she saw Sheng Yi turned her head and continued to sleep with her eyes closed.

Sheng Yi spent a lot of energy and lay on the back of the giant wolf to sleep for a while. The cool breeze in the mountains made her excited. She opened her eyes unintentionally and found a wisp of living soul floating on the side of the mountain.

The soul stared straight at Sheng Yi, and the moment their eyes overlapped, the soul actually curled up and smiled.Sheng Yi: ...It was quite sudden.

Sheng Yi knew that this should be the soul that accidentally died while searching for treasure in her cave, but seeing this in her own home was a bit scary.

She couldn't bear it anymore. When she took back the cave completely, she must take the bones of these people out and bury them. At least they would have a resting place, otherwise she would not feel at ease even if she stayed there by herself.

At the entrance to the secret realm, everyone gathered to wait for the female cultivator to announce the assessment results.

Chu Qiongxin and the twins received a perfect score of ten without any surprise. The scores were sorted from high to low. Sheng Yi knew that he was the last one, so he kept waiting.

"Chengyin, six points. Come and get the disciple uniform." After the female cultivator invigilated the exam, she stared straight at Sheng Yi and glanced at the wounds on her neck and arms.

When Sheng Yi came forward to get the disciple's uniform, the female cultivator whispered: "You have reminded me of what happened in the orchard today. I never like to owe people favors. Wait for me at the mountain gate later. I have prepared some." Here’s the elixir for you.”

Nodding kindly: "Yeah."

After returning to the team with good intentions, the female cultivator said loudly: "Congratulations to everyone for becoming disciples of the Qingjian Sect. Tomorrow is the last assessment."

"The team assessment totals thirty points. Those who score more than forty points in the three assessments can be qualified as inner disciples. If a team is eliminated, it will find someone to fill the vacancy and let me know tomorrow morning."

After hearing this rule, Sheng Yi thought about it.

The place where the outer disciples live is very remote from the central peak where the head elder is located, so it is not suitable for inquiring about information.

It seems that I have to work hard in tomorrow's assessment, and I can finally get through the inner disciple Dangdang.

……

After everyone dispersed, Sheng Yi came to the mountain gate alone to wait.

The female cultivator who invigilated the exam came over with the roster: "I have to go and report to Elder Gu on the status of today's assessment."

Perhaps considering that a disciple of Chengyin would attract attention if he waited here for too long, the female cultivator simply said, "Follow me."

The two of them ascended the central peak with their swords, and Shengyi was brought to an elegant pavilion. At this time, the female cultivator told her: "Just sit there and wait. I'll come as soon as I can."

He nodded kindly, raised his head and looked around.

This attic was her former office residence. What she didn't expect was that after more than 300 years, except for some parts that had been renovated and had a newer color, everything else remained the same.

Elder Gu... must be her apprentice Gu Xinzhou.

Sheng Yi was filled with emotions.

I don’t know what it has become after all these years.

Sheng Yi has no intention of acknowledging Gu Xinzhou yet.

In 300 years, too many things can change.

Even if her old friends can be made to disappear and her sect can be changed, no one can guarantee that Gu Xinzhou, once a proud disciple of Sheng Yi, will still maintain his original aspirations as before.

After all, Gu Xinzhou's current position in the Qingjian Sect is a bit special.

He is both her disciple and the elder of the Green Sword Sect that has been changed beyond recognition.

Before confirming Gu Xinzhou's position, Sheng Yi would not rashly agree with Gu Xinzhou.

Despite her selfish motives, she still wanted to believe Gu Xinzhou.

But a good relationship does not necessarily mean that there will be no betrayal. Once some people's core interests are contrary to each other, they will get together and break up easily, or they will break up and stop interacting with each other. This kind of thing is not unheard of.

Sheng Yi sighed, did not listen to the female cultivator's words, and wandered around the vestibule.

This place should only belong to Gu Xinzhou now. He was kind enough to see that there was still a tea set on the stone bench under the tree. He always drank tea here to pass the time in his spare time.

There was a wooden mechanism on the stone table. Sheng Yi looked familiar. It was the wooden lock she had given to Gu Xinzhou.

This mechanism needs to be solved layer by layer, and the innermost layer contains the kindly suicide note left to Gu Xinzhou.

Life and death on the battlefield were changing rapidly. Shengyi was prepared to die in battle and left a suicide note for each of his apprentices.

It's just that the three apprentices said that they didn't want her to write a suicide note and wanted her to come back alive. Their kindness could not help but they had to keep the suicide note. After all, she might really die in the battle, so they hid the suicide note in Mu Xuan Lock and gave it to her. Disciples.

If she comes back alive and the disciples unlock the Mu Xuan Lock, they will just have a few words with her.

If you don't come back, that's just fine. I've left everything I wanted to say in the letter.

After so many years, Gu Xinzhou hasn't solved it yet, right?
No, she came back from the dead, and he didn't even see the suicide note she left for him?
