But as soon as Yun Jue finished speaking, Zhou Qingmu was stunned.

What Yun Jue said at the end, without this opportunity, is my shallowness and limitation, but it is also my sincerity.

He couldn't help but have a suspicion deep in his heart. Are the monsters in the world really much more honest than humans anyway?

Zhou Qingmu felt a little shaken in his heart. In a daze, he seemed to remember one day many years ago, when a girl wearing plain clothes had two spiritual chains piercing her body, and she appeared in front of him tragically.

.In a place where monsters are regarded as monsters, just because they say "she is a monster", they will be treated unfairly. Are the sanctimonious Taoists at fault? Or is the girl in plain clothes at fault? It seems that none of them seem to be.

An unforgivable mistake. But in Zhou Qingmu's world, this girl was the first "person" to give him hope in his gloomy life.

In the heart of this young swordsman who once "leveled the Divine Sky Mountain with one sword", he actually didn't have much hatred towards humans and monsters. Just like one of the sage books that had been torn up in the Confucian and Taoist academy, there was a sentence that said

Very good. If a person has not personally experienced the suffering that others have experienced, and dares to talk shamelessly about the good and evil of others, he will always live in his own world and cannot find a true path.

In fact, this sentence may not be completely correct, because with the word "dao", no matter how others take it, for oneself, one must always try every means to follow his own way. Therefore, in Zhou Qingmu's heart these years, he has always adhered to it.

What Mr. Ye said: "When you are walking on the road in the world, if you encounter injustice, you must have a clear conscience after confirming that it is 'evil' before you punch or sword."

Until he met Xiao Yue'er in the so-called "Godly City". Zhou Qingmu was extremely sure in his heart that Xiao Yue'er's parents were among the "withered bones" that hunted him that night, otherwise there would be no trace of their bodies.

There will be sword energy from the Immortal Burial Sword. For Zhou Qingmu, the withered bones that were chasing after him that day were enemies, and he could use his sword with a clear conscience. But to those withered bones, they were just puppets controlled by others. They

Just die?

This world is inherently contradictory, and so is the struggle between men and monsters. Countless people have worked hard to find their way out, but it just makes this world look a little better. Nine times out of ten things in this world are not what you want them to be. The more you persist, the more painful it will be.

.So when a person reaches the end of his life, he feels calm. So Zhou Qingmu never digs into these things. He is acting now just to make his life less regretful.

Zhou Qingmu thought about it, and in this daze, he hugged the Immortal Burial Sword and fell asleep. This also made Yun Jue who was talking to him a little confused, so he simply closed his eyes to rest.

...

Time passed quickly, and in just a blink of an eye, it was already dark.

Zhou Qingmu was also awakened by the noise outside. He slowly opened his sleepy eyes. Then he used the scabbard in his hand to lift the curtain in front of the carriage and looked out.

I saw Yun Jue standing in front of the carriage with his brows furrowed, talking about something with the monster with horns, and there was a faint sound of fighting. Then, Zhou Qingmu frowned, wanting to take out his soul to find out.

, but was given a headache by the shock in his soul. At this moment, he suddenly remembered that his soul had been shattered by something in the mountain and river scroll.

Simply, Zhou Qingmu bent down and walked out of the carriage. Soon, he was standing next to Yun Jue. He saw two figures constantly colliding in the curtain. In front of the carriage he was standing, there was also

There was an extra black carriage that was larger than their carriage. In front of the carriage was a black horse demon pulling the carriage. There were several figures standing on the carriage scattered around the carriage.

Yun Jue saw Zhou Qingmu coming over and said softly: "Brother Lin, are you awake?"

"Brother Yun, what's going on?" Zhou Qingmu asked with a frown.

Naturally, Yun Jue couldn't see the change in Zhou Qingmu's expression. He looked at the black mask, frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Brother Lin, these monsters are wild monsters under the throne of a little demon king here. That little demon

The strength of the demon king is not bad among the many strong men on the border of the demon clan. Therefore, these guys rely on the demon king to run rampant here. Anyone who passes by here will meet him if he is a little unlucky.

These guys ended up being robbed of their property."

Zhou Qingmu frowned even deeper when he heard this. It seems that this demon race is not much better than the human race!

"What are the conditions for these guys to be released?" Zhou Qingmu said solemnly.

Yun Jue said without hesitation: "We are required to hand over at least a thousand demon crystals!"

Demon crystals, the currency of the Northern Wilderness Demon Realm, are like the human race's spirit stones. They can be used both as currency and for practice.

"These guys have quite a big appetite." Zhou Qingmu said solemnly.

As soon as Zhou Qingmu finished speaking, one of the two figures fighting on the sky suddenly fell from above and hit the wooden plank in front of a carriage like a meteorite.

Just when Yun Jue was about to go to check on the man's injury, a "person" flew from the carriage over there and landed firmly on the carriage where Zhou Qingmu was.

This demon is dressed in fresh clothes, with two spikes on each arm, and a bulge on its forehead. At first glance, it makes people feel uncomfortable.

"Yun Jue from the Nanqiu Crane Clan, right? Have you thought about it clearly? If you don't hand over the demon crystal, it won't be that simple! Although I don't want to offend the Crane Clan behind you and won't embarrass you, but you bring

There's no way these old, weak, sick and disabled people can walk safely through here!" The man stared straight into Yun Jue's eyes, and his words were extremely arrogant!

After hearing the words, Yun Jue's face became sullen and he didn't say a word for a long time. When Zhou Qingmu saw this, his face under the mask moved slightly, but he stopped talking.

Finally, Yun Jue turned his head and glanced at the demon brothers who were injured on the battlefield in the carriage behind him, with a flash of determination in his eyes.

"Master Yun, do you need to think carefully?"

Immediately afterwards, Yun Jue turned to look at the man with playful eyes, and was about to speak, but someone grabbed his wrist.

Yun Jue turned his head with some confusion and looked at the man beside him who wore a mask and never showed his true face. However, he only heard the man whisper softly: "Brother Yun, you are right, there is no need to give in."

"But..." Yun Jue looked at the dragon demon brother in front of him, but couldn't say the next words.

Naturally, he was unwilling to give up, but the other party had a demon general at the peak of the Origin Sea Realm! Yun Jue's cultivation level was already the best among the team. Although he was also at the Origin Sea Realm, he was still far from the peak.

Zhou Qingmu seemed to see Yun Jue's worries and chuckled: "Brother Yun, don't worry, you will bring a few brothers with good strength to hold off those idiots later. As for those three guys.

....."

Zhou Qingmu pointed at the three monsters with the strongest auras standing on the opposite carriage, and smiled again:
