Lingyue Sect, Silver Gong Peak.

It had been several days since I arrived at the sect. In the second room of Xuanzi, an invisible wave of spiritual pressure slowly spread out.

Soon, there was a commotion in the peak, and there was a knock on the door outside the house.

"Junior Sister Mu, did you succeed in building the foundation just now?!"

"Well, yes." Mu Qing adjusted her expression, walked to the door and opened it.

Standing outside the door were several disciples from the same peak who lived nearby. They were talking in surprise: "As Senior Sister Bai said, Sister Mu Qing is a genius that is rare to see in ten years. She has successfully built the foundation in just a few days."

Now, maybe we can catch up with Senior Sister Qin and Junior Sister Lianxing in the future!"

"Yes, let me tell you, junior sister is not only beautiful, but also talented!"

"Huh?" Mu Qing looked confused. She just followed Lu Lingqiu's instructions and practiced the introductory skills she received to the third level at the right time.

This is because the third level of "Spiritual Heart Chapter" requires the foundation-building level to be cultivated. Once it is completed, the hidden spiritual power can be openly released to the corresponding foundation-building level.

In order to deal with various troubles in the sect more easily, she had to spend three hours of rest time learning this "rough and superficial" low-level Xuan-level technique.

Soon, Bai Xue walked straight towards this side from Tianzi House and congratulated: "Junior sister is indeed better than I thought."

"It's okay." Mu Qing was noncommittal.

Seeing her calm look, Bai Xue covered her mouth with a smile and asked the other female cultivators to go back to their respective rooms. Then she turned to Mu Qing and said:

"Let's go in and talk."

"Um."

The two walked into the second room of Xuanzi. Bai Xue briefly visited Mu Qing's fragrant boudoir and asked curiously: "Does junior sister have the habit of growing flowers?"

"No, why do you ask?" Mu Qing pulled out a wooden chair from the table and motioned for her to sit down. She sat on the soft bed and tucked the "Flower God's Secret" on the bedside under her pillow without leaving any trace.

"Eh? Really?" Bai Xue came up to the girl, sniffed it, and said doubtfully, "Junior Sister Mu does have the scent of tea on her body."

"...Does Senior Sister Bai like flowers very much?" Seeing that she was so close, Mu Qing quietly moved her body to the left.

"Yes, my mother often plants some flower seeds.

However, in the Snowy Mountains, only spring flowers and viola can survive."

A trace of depression flashed in Bai Xue's eyes, she sat back on the wooden chair and sighed: "I don't know how my mother is doing."

"Ah... Well, Senior Sister Bai, why did you come to see me this time?"

Mu Qing was not good at comforting others, so when she saw that the atmosphere in the room was a bit wrong, she decisively changed the topic.

After all, the Chenxing in front of her was just a fellow disciple in the final stage of foundation building. Mu Qing, as a Demon Lord, did not want to upgrade the "fellow disciple relationship" to a "friendship".

Yes, she knew it very well. The upgrading of each relationship will bring more connections. In Lu Lingqiu's words, it is "cause and effect." In the girl's heart, except for the cause and effect with Lu Lingqiu, which is necessary, the rest can

If you cut, you will cut.

No matter man or woman, senior or junior, she doesn't want to have contact with them.

Seeing her being so cold, Bai Xue forced a smile and gained a deeper understanding of this "genius junior sister".

"Yeah. That's it. The sect trial at the end of the month will be held in conjunction with the Yutian Sword Sect and the Great Buddha Temple. Each peak has two places that can be sent out. It just so happens that Junior Sister has succeeded in building the foundation, so I plan to let you and Junior Sister Ge Xian

Let's go together." Her emotional intelligence is not low, and she knows that the girl in front of her is deliberately closing her heart and does not want to talk about anything unnecessary.

"Oh, what is the specific content of the trial?" Mu Qing didn't show the slightest interest and just asked calmly.

"We are going to the deepest water pool in the eastern part of Yinhui Forest to find and defeat the fourth-level monster - the Blue Mist Monster. Although the Hall of Stars will explain it in detail when the time comes, if junior sister wants to know in advance, you can read this." Bai Xue

He took out a scroll from his waist and handed it to her, adding: "These are the mission details prepared in advance."

Mu Qing did not take the scroll, but frowned slightly and asked, "Can I not go?"

"ah?"

Bai Xue was startled and couldn't understand what she meant at the first time. He thought that the girl was worried about the danger of this trip, so he shook his head: "That's not possible... Junior sister, don't worry, our sect has more than 20 disciples working together, and there is one

There are elders escorting you, so there is absolutely no danger. What’s more, after passing the trial, you can also get a reward from the sect, which is said to be a middle-grade spiritual talisman."

Mu Qing sighed in her heart, reached out and took the scroll, and threw it directly to the bed.

In the level classification of monsters by human monks, the fourth level corresponds to the big monster that has just condensed its spirit. Even if there is no elder to lead the team, there is absolutely no risk.

But that's not the problem at all.

But——

The Blue Mist Demon is just a wisp of mist that has been diffused by the deep pool for many years. Over time, it has been difficult to condense and form, and it has a physical form.

Moreover, she has a gentle temperament. Generally speaking, she will not attack passers-by at all. Even when other small animals pass by, she will stay out of the way, for fear that the cold air on her body will frostbite them...

Why, why should such a gentle "monster" be used as a trial target by the three factions for "crusade"?

It's said to be a crusade, but actually it's just to eradicate it, right?

And with Nascent Soul monk leading the team, the success rate must be 100%.

Mu Qing felt depressed. She wanted to ask her inner doubts, but she remembered the three-part agreement between herself and Lu Lingqiu. In desperation, she could only sigh and nodded: "Okay."

"Junior sister...did I make you unhappy?" Bai Xue couldn't help but feel confused when she saw her looking even lower than before.

From the first time she entered the house, Mu Qing had been ignoring her.

As for the task, I don’t know how many other disciples are eager to complete it easily and receive the reward. After all, it is just a formality with the elder. Isn’t it nice to get a valuable middle-grade talisman for free?

After finally getting a spot for Mu Qing, who would have thought that she was not happy, or even unhappy...?

She was puzzled, but saw Mu Qing shake her head and suddenly asked:

"Senior Sister Bai, do you think all 'monsters' should be killed?"

Hearing this, Bai Xue was stunned and hesitated for a moment: "I... don't know."

She tells the truth.

She has lived in the desolate and inhabited Northland since she was a child.

Apart from her mother, she has no relatives or friends.

Ancestor Xue Fu’s instructions to her are still in her ears: “Bai Xue, remember. On the other side of the chasm is the Sea of ​​Ten Thousand Monsters. Perhaps one day, these monster beasts will break through the Snow Ridge and enter the interior. By then,

Humanity will face an unprecedented catastrophe."

She felt that she could not answer Mu Qing's question.

Although Ling Yue was practicing at the end of foundation building and was about to form a pill, no matter whether it was a trial or a secret experience, she had never killed a real monster with her own hands.

Just like the new shoots that grow healthily in a warm environment, they bloom more beautiful flowers than other similar flowers around them.

Mu Qing looked at her, looked directly into her eyes, and asked from a different angle: "Does Senior Sister think that all 'monsters' are evil?"

This time, Bai Xue did not hesitate for too long.

She pursed her lips and said with firm eyes: "There is no absolute evil in the world. I guess, so are monsters."

Time seemed to slow down.

Minutes and seconds passed by.

The two of them sat opposite each other,

The air in the stone chamber was eerily quiet.

I don't know how long it took.

Mu Qing smiled:

"That's it."

Bai Xue looked at her angelic smile and was in a daze for a long time.

——

Before leaving, Bai Xue stopped outside the door and said to Mu Qing who was about to close the door: "Tumi is the last flower to bloom in spring, and her flower language is the beauty of the end. Junior Sister Mu, if you like it, I will bring a pot next time

Come see you off."

"good."

This time, the girl did not refuse.

Bai Xue nodded happily and turned towards Bai Yufeng.

No one saw the tears in her eyes.

——

"Mother, are you okay?

I finally made friends with Lingyue."
Chapter completed!
