Chapter 351 The Stunningly Beautiful Elder Appoints Her as an Escort

When we returned to Qingquan Peak, a sliver of gray had already appeared on the horizon.

Instead of going back to his cave to sleep, he went straight into his courtyard and began to take inventory of his storage bags.

Talismans.

Battle flags.

Elixir.

Spare vestments.

Hidden Breath Powder.

Sap from the corpse plant.

There are three pieces of dry food left.

Mo Chengyue picked up the dry rations and looked at them, his expression solemn.

"A person can live without dignity, but not without emergency food rations."

He then took out the Moon Shadow Illusion Pendant and repeatedly examined the spiritual patterns inside.

Leng Yuexin said she didn't need to escape.

This statement is logically flawed.

It was precisely because Leng Yuexin was there that he needed to escape even more.

Can the troubles that a Nascent Soul cultivator has to deal with when he goes out really be called troubles?

That's called a plot point.

Plot points usually don't respect the right of a Core Formation stage cultivator temporarily assigned to guard the Scripture Pavilion to leave work.

Before Chenshi (7-9 AM), Mo Chengyue arrived at the gate of Bingpo Peak.

He has always adhered to one principle.

Being late will be remembered.

Arriving early will also get you remembered.

Therefore, it's best to time your move carefully.

But when faced with Leng Yuexin, he decided to sacrifice some of his workplace philosophy in exchange for keeping his mind intact.

A silver-white flying boat was already parked in front of the mountain gate.

The airship was small, its entire body sculpted from ice crystals, with fine snow patterns engraved on its hull and several frost bells hanging from its edge.

Each frost bell sways gently, releasing a cold light that subdues the surrounding wind and snow.

Mo Chengyue glanced at it and immediately gave it a price in his mind.

nice one.

I can't afford it.

I can't afford to pay for the damage.

It's best to sit less.

Unfortunately, life doesn't offer multiple-choice questions.

Leng Yuexin quickly descended from the peak.

Today, instead of her usual austere white dress, she wore a long, light blue dress with silver patterns.

A narrow belt cinched her waist, outlining her slender yet not frail figure.

Her long hair was half-tied up, with an ice jade hairpin inserted between her hair, and tiny cold beads hanging from the end of the hairpin.

As she walked down the snow-covered steps, the hem of her dress brushed against the snow, yet not a single white mark was left on it.

He looked like a god who had emerged from a glacier under the moon.

Elegant and beautiful.

alienation.

And it's sharp.

Several Ice Soul Peak disciples bowed respectfully from a distance beside the mountain gate, even their breathing becoming soft.

"Greetings, Elder."

Leng Yuexin nodded slightly.

Mo Chengyue also lowered his head, trying to appear as an inconspicuous follower.

Unfortunately, he underestimated the gossip skills of the Ice Soul Peak disciples.

"Is that Senior Brother Mo?"

"Yes, I get my period every month."

"I heard that the elder personally selected him to go out."

"What exactly are his abilities?"

"Perhaps... they're particularly resistant to cold?"

Mo Chengyue's eye twitched slightly.

Exceptionally cold-resistant?

This assessment doesn't sound like that of a monk, but rather like a cotton-padded coat.

Leng Yuexin boarded the flying boat and said calmly, "Get on."

Mo Chengyue immediately followed.

The flying boat soared into the sky, a flash of silver light, and Ice Soul Peak rapidly shrank.

The sea of ​​clouds spread out beneath our feet, the mountains resembled crouching beasts, and the morning light fell on the distant ridges, as if gilding the heavens and earth with a thin layer of gold.

Mo Chengyue stood at the stern of the boat, his hands tucked into his sleeves, his expression calm.

On the surface, he appears to be an otherworldly being.

My inner thought is that I need to get reimbursed for business trips.

Leng Yuexin sat at the bow of the boat, closing her eyes and regulating her breathing.

After a moment, she suddenly said, "Are you nervous?"

Mo Chengyue said, "This disciple is cautious."

Leng Yue thought to herself, "You're holding three escape talismans in your hand."

Mo Chengyue looked down at his sleeve.

well.

Nascent Soul consciousness indeed has no privacy.

"I'm just afraid of encountering unexpected situations."

Leng Yue thought to herself, "With me here, what sudden event could there be?"

Mo Chengyue said, "Elder, we usually don't consult you in advance about unexpected situations."

Leng Yuexin opened her eyes.

"Are you saying I can't protect you?"

Mo Chengyue immediately replied, "This disciple is referring to the impermanence of life."

Leng Yue thought to herself, "Your mouth will get you into trouble sooner or later."

Mo Chengyue said, "I've already offended quite a few, so I'm being very restrained now."

Leng Yuexin looked at him for a moment.

"How about the three-story library?"

Mo Chengyue said, "Strict rules and quiet environment are suitable for cultivating the mind."

Leng Yue thought to herself, "You like it?"

Mo Chengyue said, "If you like it, you don't need to copy the book."

Leng Yue thought to herself, "Pathetic."

Mo Chengyue said frankly, "My disciple's prospects are more pragmatic."

Leng Yuexin didn't say anything more.

The airship headed northwest.

The further we went, the darker the sky became.

The originally clear clouds gradually turned grayish-blue, and the distant mountains seemed to be shrouded in a layer of cold mist.

Half an hour later, the flying boat descended.

Below, a continuous stretch of mining ridges appeared.

Outside the mining area lies a small town affiliated with the Hehuan Sect. Large swathes of medicinal fields on the edge of the town are withered and yellow, with white frost condensing on the field ridges.

Several disciples stood anxiously beside the temporary array flag.

Upon seeing the flying boat land, the leading middle-aged cultivator hurriedly came forward to greet it.

"Your subordinate Xu Shan greets Elder Leng!"

The disciples behind bowed in unison.

"Greetings, Elder Leng!"

Leng Yuexin stepped off the flying boat, her tone indifferent.

Where is the mine borehole?

Xu Shan hurriedly said, "Below the North Ridge, the Ice Fiend leaked again last night. We've already sealed three array gates, but the underground heat flow has broken the seal again. I really can't suppress it anymore."

As he spoke, he glanced cautiously at Mo Chengyue.

"And this is...?"

Leng Yue thought to herself, "The accompanying disciple."

Xu Shan immediately understood.

"So it was a direct disciple of the elder?"

Mo Chengyue was about to explain.

Leng Yue thought to herself, "No."

Xu Shan was stunned.

Mo Chengyue said, "I am consumable material."

Xu Shan: "..."

The disciples around him almost lost their composure.

Leng Yuexin glanced at Mo Chengyue.

"Be poor."

Mo Chengyue lowered his head and looked meek.

"I am simply defining my own responsibilities."

Xu Shan coughed and quickly changed the subject.

"Elder, the situation at the mine is strange. Besides the clash between ice and earth fire, there seem to be traces of foreign spiritual energy."

Leng Yue's eyes were slightly cold.

"External spiritual energy?"

Xu Shan nodded.

"I dare not say for sure, but it does not resemble a natural crack."

Mo Chengyue's heart skipped a beat.

coming.

The plot point has finally arrived.

Simply repairing a mine is an engineering accident.

The external spiritual energy was caused by human sabotage.

The deliberate sabotage, coupled with the presence of a Nascent Soul elder, is simply a sign that someone is tired of living.

Leng Yue thought to herself, "Lead the way."

Xu Shan immediately turned around.

The group walked through the withered medicinal fields and headed towards the Beiling Mine.

On the way, several disciples stationed there whispered among themselves.

"Was that Senior Brother Mo really brought by Elder Leng?"

"His cultivation level doesn't seem very high."

"The Core Formation stage isn't high enough?"

"What's the difference between a Core Formation stage cultivator and a Qi Refining stage cultivator standing next to Elder Leng?"

"That's true."

Mo Chengyue listened without expression.

Thank you.

have been offended.

The mine entrance soon came into view.

The entrance to the cave was sealed by three layers of array patterns, but white mist kept emerging from the edges of the array patterns.

The white mist turned into frost upon landing, and beneath the frost layer, a faint crimson light shone through.

Ice and fire intertwined in the same spot, producing a series of faint crackling sounds.

It was as if two unseen ferocious beasts were tearing each other apart underground.

Leng Yuexin raised her hand and pointed.

A crack appeared in the sealing array.

A sudden surge of air, a mixture of hot and cold, burst forth.

Xu Shan's face turned pale, and he took three steps back.

Several disciples groaned, their protective aura instantly becoming chaotic.

Mo Chengyue flicked his fingertips within his sleeve, and the Yin-Yang True Essence quietly shifted.

The shockwave struck him and was silently split into two streams, one cold and one hot, which slid away from his sides.

Leng Yuexin glanced at him sideways.

Mo Chengyue immediately pretended that nothing had happened.

"Elder, things inside are indeed not very peaceful."

Leng Yue thought to herself, "Go in."

Mo Chengyue looked at the dark mine shaft.

"Can this disciple stand at the cave entrance to provide support?"

Leng Yue thought to herself, "No."

Mo Chengyue asked, "Could this disciple walk in the middle?"

Leng Yue thought to herself, "Walk behind me."

Mo Chengyue said earnestly, "This arrangement is very reasonable."

Xu Shan whispered from the side, "Senior Brother Mo is quite bold."

Mo Chengyue said, "Senior Brother Xu, you misunderstand. It's not that I'm brave; it's that my legs still listen to advice."

Several disciples stationed there couldn't help but chuckle.

The tense atmosphere immediately eased a little.

Leng Yuexin ignored them and stepped into the mine first.

The cave was dimly lit, with blue and white ice crystals clinging to the stone walls, while crimson fire veins flowed through the cracks in the ice crystals.

The deeper you go, the stronger the conflict becomes.

In the end, with each step, frost and smoke appeared at the foot of the feet.
