"Can you deal with that demon king?" Gu An asked with a look of doubt. Li Ya smiled proudly: "I have already formed a pill, don't underestimate me!" "The Jindan realm is only an inner disciple in Taixuan Sect, can it fight against the demon king?" "You kid, I came all the way to protect you, and you still despise me?" "I'm afraid that you will be like you did back then. Have you forgotten that you rushed out to deal with the greedy and angry demon ghost, but ended up injured and fell to the ground." "Can you stop mentioning it?" The two began to quarrel. Being squeezed by Gu An, Li Ya was not angry at all, because he could feel that Gu An had good intentions and was afraid of implicating him. Little did he know that what Gu An was worried about was not implicating, but dragging him down. Brother, if the demon king comes, you are next to me, I can't do it! Gu An couldn't say his true thoughts, and Li Ya insisted on staying, so he could only give up.
"By the way, have you seen Junior Brother Lu recently?" Gu An asked. Li Ya shook his head and said, "I haven't seen him. I met him before. He joined the Demon Exorcist Hall. I don't get along with the elders of the Demon Exorcist Hall, so we didn't have any contact anymore." Speaking of this, his face was indifferent, and he didn't take Lu Jiujia to heart at all. Although he was enthusiastic about Gu An, he was actually very cold to others. "Let's go upstairs and have a good chat. I heard that you got another medicine valley, and it's still in the inner gate. You have to tell me about it." Li Ya pulled Gu An upstairs. This chat lasted until late at night. Gu An did not mention his identity as Pan An, but said that the harvest of Xuan Valley satisfied the higher-ups, so he was assigned another medicine valley. Li Xuandao was criticized because of the Conferred Gods. How dare Gu An tell Li Ya about Pan An's identity? What if Li Ya let it slip? After all, they are father and son. No matter how big the conflict is, before the complete break, the relationship is closer than with Gu An. ... At the turn of summer and autumn, the temperature is still a little hot. Ten days had passed since Li Ya arrived. Xuan Valley had not encountered any danger during these ten days. Gu An also went out to take care of the caves of those outer disciples. Li Ya insisted on accompanying him, but when he arrived at the caves, he did not go in, fearing that he would cause trouble for Gu An. Gu An wanted Li Ya to stay in Xuan Valley to protect the disciples, but Li Ya did not care about others at all. In his words, he was able to teach swordsmanship to those disciples for Gu An's sake. In the evening of this day, Gu An was picking mature herbs, while Li Ya was meditating on the top of the mountain on the west side. The setting sun was just hanging over his head, making him look like a peerless master. Suddenly, Gu An noticed something, his right hand stagnated, and then he continued to pick. "There really is a demon king, I hope he doesn't target my medicine valley." Gu An thought silently that the other party's aura was far beyond the foundation-building realm, but it did not pose a threat in his perception. The vague demonic aura began to move away from Xuan Valley, which made him feel relieved.
Compared with the decades of life gained by killing the other party, he was more afraid of exposing his strength. Until night fell. Gu An was reading Ziwei Formation Record in the house. He was reading the wood-attributed formations with great interest. His brows suddenly frowned, and then he sighed. Xuan Gu did not cause any trouble, but Li Ya attracted the attention of the Demon Lord. On the top of the mountain, Li Ya, who was meditating and absorbing qi, suddenly opened his eyes. He stood up, walked to the edge of the cliff, and looked down at the forest below. About a hundred feet away from the mountain where he was, a mysterious man like a ghost stood under the tree, looking at him from afar. Under the moonlight, the mysterious man almost merged with the darkness, and only by getting close could he be seen. Li Ya frowned, raised his hand and pointed to the distance, then jumped up and flew to the end of the night sky. The mysterious man under the tree then turned into a ball of black gas and dissipated, disappearing without a trace. After an incense stick of time. Li Ya landed beside a river in the mountains. The river ran through the mountains and was about two meters wide. It sparkled under the moonlight. As soon as he landed, a black gas appeared out of thin air on the grass opposite the river, and then condensed into a human figure. Li Ya asked, "You are not the Demon Lord of Tianjue Sect. You seem to know me?" The mysterious man said in a hoarse voice, "Prince Li Ya, inherited the sword meaning of the first sword cultivator in Jizhou. It is a pleasant surprise to meet you." Li Ya drew the sword at his waist, pointed at the mysterious figure, and said, "Playing tricks!" As the voice fell, his body burst out with violent sword energy, causing his black clothes to shake violently like flames. Seven silver sword shadows quickly condensed around him, which were so dazzling in the dark night. "You dare to resist me in the Jindan realm?" The mysterious man sneered contemptuously. He turned into demonic energy again and dissipated. Almost instantly, he appeared behind Li Ya out of thin air. Li Ya's pupils shrank, and he immediately jumped up, turning around and slashing behind him. Seven silver sword shadows killed the mysterious man at a very fast speed. Boom! Boom! Boom... Silver sword shadows fell to the ground one after another, stirring up rolling dust and shaking the surrounding trees violently. Li Ya in mid-air had not yet seen whether the mysterious man was hit, a strong wind swept from the side, and he had no time to react and was directly blown away. Li Ya fell into the woods like a sharp arrow, knocking down trees along the way, and flew hundreds of feet before he stopped. The dust dispersed, and Li Ya leaned against the tree trunk with blood all over his body. The trunk was full of cracks and the branches were still trembling. The mysterious man appeared in mid-air, looking down at Li Ya, and snorted: "Boy, you dare to fight me just after forming a pill, you are so brave, do you know what realm I am in?" Li Ya looked up with difficulty, and blood dyed his vision red. "Damn..." Li Ya gritted his teeth and tried to stand up, but he couldn't stand up at all.
"Hey, why are you injured again? You are not playing with your own life, but the life of your ancestor!" An old voice sounded in Li Ya's mind, and the tone was very helpless. The mysterious man raised his right hand and faced Li Ya in the air. In the dark night, he was surrounded by demonic energy and did not reveal his true appearance. He was about to speak, and a hand surrounded by demonic energy pressed on his shoulder, which made him stunned. In an instant, his body suddenly grew branches, mixed with blood, and it seemed like a blood flower blooming in the air. The demonic energy on his body dissipated, revealing his true body. This was a middle-aged man, and his outer sect elder's robe was pierced by branches. His ferocious and majestic face was full of incredible colors. He turned his head with difficulty, and saw a purple-black figure standing behind him. "Demon Shadow Divine Art... You..." The middle-aged man trembled. Li Ya's eyes widened suddenly and he shouted angrily, "Elder Chen, why is it you?" The middle-aged man called Elder Chen had no time to answer. The storage bag on his waist was taken away by the person behind him. Then, the branches on his body ignited with green fire, quickly burning him to ashes, and his body and soul disappeared. The purple-black figure stood in the air, and his right arm kept grabbing Elder Chen's shoulder. Li Ya below felt a huge pressure. He knew that Elder Chen was a great cultivator in the Nascent Soul Realm. How could such a cultivator be destroyed without any resistance? "Crossing the Void Realm! At least above the fifth level!" The voice of the ancestor sounded in Li Ya's mind, and his tone was very solemn. The three words Crossing the Void Realm made Li Ya's heart beat wildly. The forest under the night sky fell into silence, and Li Ya's heart was in his throat, ready to guard against the other party's attack at any time. He roared in his heart, ancestor, save me! After a few breaths. The purple-black figure disappeared in the air, and Li Ya was so scared that he trembled all over and looked around quickly. "He left. He must have weighed something." The voice of the ancestor sounded in Li Ya's mind, which made him feel relieved. "Stinky boy, don't worry about that Gu An, hurry to the inner gate. This outer gate is getting more and more evil. There must be someone who is hurting Tiande. If you stay, something will happen sooner or later!" The tone of the ancestor became stern, and Li Ya was silent. ... In the Xuangu Pavilion, Gu An looked at the storage bag in his hand and sighed slightly. Senior Brother Li, I'm sorry, if you don't get hurt, you will stay here. Gu An felt very sorry. After all, Li Ya came for him. Although the elder Chen just now obviously wanted to capture Li Ya, if Li Ya went directly to the inner gate, there would be no subsequent trouble. He decided to send more herbs after Li Ya came back. Killing Elder Chen allowed him to gain thirty-seven years of life, no more and no less.
He began to explore Elder Chen's storage bag. His spiritual sense scanned it several times, and took out some potentially dangerous things and burned them. It was not until dawn that Li Ya came back. This guy changed into clean clothes and looked like he had not experienced a big battle. Gu An met him downstairs and asked, "Brother Li, why do you look a little off?" Li Ya smiled and said, "There was a little problem with my practice last night, but it's okay." Gu An frowned, then pulled him upstairs and took out all the pills he had refined, which were dozens of bottles. He said he bought them all and stored them. Li Ya asked in surprise, "Brother Gu, what are you doing?" "You came back from outside the valley, and your face is still not good. You should have encountered a battle last night, right?" Gu An said in a deep voice. Li Ya's face became ugly. He took a deep breath and said, "I did encounter a demon cultivator last night and was injured. Brother Gu, you should move to the inner gate medicine valley. You can't stay in the outer gate!" Can't stay? I don't believe it! Gu An's foundation is here, he can't abandon it, whoever comes to cause trouble will die! Gu An smiled bitterly on the surface: "Brother Li, we grow low-level herbs in this medicine valley, how can the Demon Lord look down on them? In fact, we are safer if you are not here. You go to the inner gate, we will be fine, I can ask Lu Jiujia for help, our relationship is not broken." "But..." Li Ya hesitated. Gu An interrupted: "Brother Li, I always feel that the chaos in the outer gate has little to do with the magic cultivators. The Demon Hall has been established for so many years, and how many spies of the magic sect have been caught. Is it possible that someone is using the name of the magic sect to cause chaos? If you go to the inner gate, you may be able to save the outer gate, but if you stay here, how long can you protect me by yourself?" Li Ya's face darkened instantly when he heard it, and he thought of Elder Chen. After struggling for a few breaths, he took a deep breath and said: "Brother Gu, you are right! I will go to the inner gate now!" Gu An smiled, and then forced all the pills to him, which moved him very much. After a few words, Gu An urged him to get on the road. He also felt that things could not be delayed. Because of his injury, Li Ya could only fly with his sword. After he flew out of Xuan Valley, he couldn't help but look back and murmured: "See, this is why I can't let him go. No matter who dares to hurt him, I will make them regret it!"
