Gu Yan sighed lightly and said, "Thank you for your kindness. However, Jinxuan is still young and has never been so far away from home. Now that I have just gone to Wumen, I am afraid that I will go by myself, so instead, it will make Jinxuan more home-loving and unable to concentrate on practicing."
"So, it's better not to go, so just hone Jinxuan. I hope the Valley Master and you all will be successful."
Gu Yan said this, it would be difficult for everyone to force others.
For a moment, everyone fell into silence.
Gu Qingshan frowned and looked around everyone. Finally, his eyes fell on Gu Zhikun and said, "Zhikun, why not come here to travel. By the way, you can also take your apprentice Du Xuan to see the world."
"That's it!" Gu Ren nodded immediately and agreed, "Du Xuan is not a major in demon fighting. He just took this opportunity to go and see the martial arts competition. This is the younger elite of our ASEAN generation. Being able to observe such a level of competition will definitely be of great benefit to Du Xuan. If you are his master, you should take him with you!"
Gu Zhikun smiled bitterly, looking embarrassed. Going to the Wumen to attend the league leader meeting, as Gu Ren said, it has nothing to do with Demon Valley, it is simply a waste of time and a hard work.
Seeing this, Gu Yan and Gu Lanxi said nothing. No one was happy about this.
"Senior Sister Yan, Junior Sister Lan Xi, do you think so?" Gu Ren looked at Gu Yan and Gu Lan Xi and asked again.
Gu Ren forced Gu Yan and Gu Lanxi to express their opinions, but the two still didn't want to say more.
"Forget it!" Gu Zhikun sighed, "If I go, I will go."
When Gu Ren heard this, he immediately laughed and looked at Gu Zhikun and said, "That's right! He happened to take your apprentice to see the big scene, and by the way, he could also get together with his family."
Gu Zhikun squeezed out a bitter smile and nodded.
"Then it's decided." Gu Qingshan was very satisfied with the matter. "As for the person accompanying him, Zhikun, you can do it yourself. Du Xuan should bring it with him, but Zhong Nan, I think he can bring it with me."
"Yes." Gu Zhikun nodded and responded.
After a pause, Gu Zhikun frowned slightly and asked again: "This time, should Zhong Nan or Du Xuan meet the disciples of the martial arts cultivator?"
As soon as these words came out, Gu Qingshan and everyone were stunned.
"Can you meet the martial arts disciples?" Gu Ren looked even more surprised and smiled directly, "Senior Brother, aren't you confused? Although they can call the wind and rain in the demon arena, do you really think that when they arrive at the Martial Sect, they can be so powerful? Haha, I think you are so confused, Senior Brother."
Gu Yan, who was standing beside him, wanted to say something, but the corner of his mouth moved slightly, but he swallowed the words back and finally said nothing.
"I'll just say it casually." Gu Zhikun smiled bitterly as if he was self-deprecating, "I just want them to see it."
Gu Qingshan sighed in his heart and said, "Forget it, you and I know the strength of the martial arts cultivators. This time, just let them see it. If there is any accident, it will be more than worth the loss."
*******
One month later.
The autumn wind gently blew the branches of the courtyard, bringing a quiet coolness.
At the stone table in the courtyard, Du Xuan and Feng Yao were having lunch as usual, and said that he would set off for the Wumen tomorrow.
"Then, who will fight on behalf of my Demon Valley?" Feng Yao asked with a frown slightly, her face full of reluctance.
Although Zhong Nan had the last laugh at the Demon Fighting Conference, many people, including Feng Yao, believed that if Zhong Nan was in a one-on-one situation, he might not be Du Xuan's opponent.
Du Xuan shook his head slightly, with a hint of regret on his face, and said, "Just like before, Demon Valley does not participate in the competition."
"Ah?" Feng Yao was shocked, but she was relieved soon. "Yes! The new leader of the competition was chosen, and they were all the top martial arts disciples of each family. You two would be lucky if you were not defeated."
Du Xuan chuckled twice without comment. What Feng Yao said was indeed the truth. The two of them have been together for so long every day and have become much closer, so they are naturally not taboo to speak.
At this moment, Du Xuan suddenly frowned slightly, raised his head and looked out the door. Feng Yao was a little puzzled and turned her head to look out the door. However, she saw nothing.
Just as Feng Yao was about to turn around and question, the sound of running suddenly came from the door. After a moment, a figure ran into a figure and looked at it. Xie Ming was panting but full of joy.
"Xuanzi, Xuanzi." Xie Ming said excitedly while panting, "I...I..."
Du Xuan stood up with a smile, shook his head, picked up a teacup on the stone table, handed it over, and said, "Drink a little water first, and talk slowly."
Xie Ming took the teacup, drank it all, and said excitedly: "I've been promoted, I'm a magician! I'm a first-rate magician!"
I see.
Feng Yao, who had been frowning, shook her head and chuckled twice.
"Just breaking through?" Du Xuan asked with a smile.
Xie Ming nodded excitedly and continued, "Well, I just broke through in the Magic Reconstruction Tower. Haha, I finally am like you, a magician."
"Yeah, okay, okay!" Xie Ming's cultivation level broke through, and Du Xuan was naturally happy.
Feng Yao shook her head and said coldly: "You are only a first-grade magician. Du Xuan and I are both third-grade magicians. Long Wanshan is probably soon. You still have to step up your practice to catch up."
Recently, Feng Yao has followed everyone to climb the mountain every morning, and has become more familiar with Xie Ming and Long Wanshan, and has talked a little more. Of course, it is still mostly cold noodles.
"Haha." Xie Ming scratched his head and smiled, "That's right, I have to work harder."
Du Xuan nodded and encouraged, "Well, don't be lazy, I have to go to the Demon Cultivation Tower to practice for two hours every day. The demonic skills are not enough, so tell me that's it."
Xie Ming nodded heavily this time. If Du Xuan hadn't helped him every month, how could he have practiced in the Magic Cultivation Tower every day and could have broken through to the magician so quickly?
"Then I'll go back first, reach the level of a magician, and try to make new pills in the afternoon, haha." Xie Ming was still a little excited.
Du Xuan was stunned and said, "Just eat here and let the servants send it here."
Xie Ming glanced at Feng Yao and said with a strange smile: "How can I disturb you two? Let's go first!"
After saying that, Xie Ming waved his hand and trotted out directly.
Du Xuan was stunned, then a little embarrassed. Looking back, he saw that Feng Yao had lowered her head slightly at some point, and there was a hint of redness on her face, like the buds that were shy to be released, very charming and beautiful.
After a moment, Feng Yao suddenly raised her head, showed a bright smile, and said, "Let's have a meal."
"Oh, yes, yes." Du Xuan nodded dumbly, a little dazed.
Back on the stone table, Feng Yao gave Du Xuan a large piece of meat on her plate and said, "Eat more and practice the demon fight will cost a lot."
"Yeah, thank you."
"You must be careful on the way after leaving the Demon Valley tomorrow. Although no one can beat you in the Demon Valley, it will be different outside."
"Yeah, I know."
*******
The next day, at the hour of Mao.
The courtyard of Zhonger 237, Xie Ming, Long Wanshan, and Feng Yao, saw Du Xuan off one by one and encouraged him. In the eyes of most people, it is definitely worthwhile to be able to go to the Wumen and step onto the top of the martial soul in their lifetime.
After all, the Wumen is an absolute martial arts master in ASEAN, and is even a mythical existence. Even the Tang Gang Sunjiabao is far from that.
With a few words of encouragement and blessings, Xie Ming and Long Wanshan left tactfully, leaving Feng Yao and Du Xuan behind.
"Be careful on the way and come back early." Feng Yao lowered her head slightly and said softly.
Du Xuan said "um" softly and nodded.
The two people who talk a lot in private are silent at this moment. Maybe they don’t know what to say, or maybe they are embarrassed to speak. The relationship between the two seems to be a little blurry, and when the critical moment comes, that layer of blur is particularly hindering.
"I'm leaving." After a while, Du Xuan looked at Feng Yao and said softly.
Feng Yao didn't make a sound, just nodded.
However, just as Du Xuan turned around and moved, Feng Yao suddenly hugged Du Xuan from behind.
Hold it tightly.
The back is as soft as cotton, with a refreshing fragrance, and the two thumping heartbeats are so clear.
However, Du Xuan was so intoxicated that Feng Yao let go of her hands, blushed, buried her head deeply, and ran out of the yard without looking back: "Come back early."
Looking at Feng Yao who was jogging and leaving, Du Xuan was dumb and lost his mind. Then, a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his heart was very moist and sweet.
The next day, at three o'clock in Mao.
Gu Zhikun took Du Xuan and Zhong Nan on the way to the Wumen. Their group of three first arrived at the Demon City, where there was a team of ten martial arts disciples who would escort them to the Wumen.
To go to the Wumen, you have to cross the entire Jiumen territory, cross at least three cities, and dozens of nearly a hundred villages before you can reach it. Gu Zhikun and his party are all demon cultivators. For safety reasons, it is better to have Martial disciples escort them.
All of these thirteen people rode on horseback.
If Du Xuan had used the Ruyi Tengyun that he had just learned a few days ago, he would have arrived at the Wumen in three or five days. However, this would consume too much devil energy and demonic consciousness, and the disciples of the Wumen could not use such a magic weapon to control the air.
Besides, such a long distance is not urgent, so it is naturally unnecessary, and riding a horse is the most cost-effective.
The moment he left the Demon City Gate, Du Xuan's heart couldn't help but feel a little heavy again.
Thinking back then, I was rescued by Gu Qingshan in front of the Demon City Gate. Although I was lucky enough to be saved, the dozens of elite disciples in the Du Mansion lost all their enemies because of protecting themselves.
To be precise, it was lost to the Tang Gang.
Riding on a horse, facing the rising sun, heading north.
Du Xuan felt even more heavy when he stepped onto Wangyue Mountain outside the Demon City. The heavy feeling of depression in his heart even made him feel a little breathless.
Although A San, although he was just a servant of the Du Mansion, he was also a martial artist and served him for many years. He died on the spot in order to protect himself in order to protect himself.
And those guards, those guards secretly sent by their father and grandfather, were all killed here because of their own. They are all elites of the Du family and elites of martial arts. Everyone is more important than him, a mere demon cultivator.
Du Xuan, who was riding on the horse, looked cold, his teeth were clenched, his fists were clenched, and his giggled.
