Chapter 257 Gu Ning is being targeted
Gu Ning returned to his own small courtyard and threw himself onto the soft bed.
Logically, she should have fallen asleep immediately due to exhaustion, but her mind was surprisingly clear.
He casually took Xiaoqing off his hand and gently placed it on the hill of black ice crystals. Gu Ning sat cross-legged on the bed and asked softly, "Xiaoqing, what exactly is the illusion technique?"
Xiao Qing glanced at Gu Ning weakly. Just now, Ye Xiaoshu had fed it all the elixirs suitable for healing monsters. Now it could barely muster up some energy.
"I haven't heard of it." Xiao Qing took a deep breath and replied lazily, "I feel that it was Song Yu who deceived Feng Qianshan..."
"But..." It paused for a moment, "To be able to deceive a cultivator in the Fusion Stage is simply unbelievable and unheard of!"
And this is exactly what Gu Ning is confused about.
You say Song Yu is powerful, but she herself is just a weakling; you say she is weak, but she can even use a cultivator in the fusion stage for her own benefit.
She is just a small Jindan stage...
Illusion face technique?
"Are the Nine-tailed Fox clan very good at using this kind of charm technique?" Gu Ning suddenly reacted and asked.
Xiao Qing greedily absorbed the energy of the black ice crystal. The tip of the hill collapsed in a moment. It clicked its tongue and said, "Why don't you go ask the people of the Nine-tailed Fox Clan and find out~"
As soon as it finished speaking, it shook its head in dissatisfaction, "Give me some more, this is not enough to fill the gaps between my teeth."
Gu Ning was in a rare good temper, and always responded to requests, "No, no, no, all is for you, you should practice well and improve your cultivation quickly..."
Xiao Qing rolled her eyes and said, "You should improve your cultivation first, otherwise you will die at any time."
Gu Ning put his hands behind his head, fell back on the bed, and laughed, "No hurry, no hurry."
After a good night's sleep, Gu Ning got up the next day. As soon as he opened the window, he saw a red silk hanging on the tree outside the yard.
Gu Ning raised his eyebrows and flew forward, only to see a line of words written in beautiful handwriting on the red silk:
The blue bird does not spread the letter from the cloud, and the lilac is empty and sorrowful in the rain.
Gu Ning: “!!!”
What is this thing? How did it suddenly get on this tree?
In a flash, Gu Ning thought of Meng Jia's "Peach Blossom Oolong Incident". Could it be that... this poem has some other meaning?
Thinking of this, Gu Ning touched the leaves with his toes without touching the ground, and suddenly floated away.
"Senior Brother, Senior Brother!" Gu Ning shouted outside Meng Jia's courtyard. Meng Jia, who was scooping up a handful of water to wash his face, was suddenly grabbed by Gu Ning and was helplessly pulled and turned 180 degrees.
"Junior sister, if you have anything to say, wait for me to wash up..."
"Swish!" Before he could finish his words, Gu Ning presented a piece of red silk directly in front of him, and two lines of words enlarged in front of him.
Suddenly, his expression froze, and the water on his face slid down his hair. He nervously grabbed Gu Ning's wrist and asked, "Where did it come from?"
"Brother, is it exactly the same as the love letter you received before?" Gu Ning moved his wrist. "It hurts, it hurts, Brother. You're using too much force."
Seeing Gu Ning frowning, Meng Jia suddenly realized his mistake and quickly let go of her hand, "Sorry, Junior Sister, where did you get this red silk?"
Gu Ning simply and clearly described the process of how she found the red silk. After she finished speaking, she looked at Meng Jia with a sharp gaze, "Big Brother, you must know something, right?"
Otherwise, Meng Jia wouldn't have lost his composure like this.
Meng Jia pursed his lips and waved his hand. An anti-peeping barrier enveloped the entire courtyard. Meng Jia pulled Gu Ning's sleeve and said in a deep voice, "Come with me."
In the room, another piece of red silk appeared on the table with the same two lines of words written on it, but there was a different place on Meng Jia's red silk.
"Meng, Xiao." Gu Ning pronounced these two words word by word, and suddenly his eyes widened, "This this this..."
"At the beginning, there were no such words." Meng Jia sighed, "It was only three days later that they suddenly appeared."
"And... when these two words appeared, it happened to be the time when... I was completely unable to sense the fluctuations of my brother's soul."
Although Meng Xiao sacrificed himself to help Meng Jia succeed in the Canghai Secret Realm, the two of them had been together for so many years that Meng Xiao's soul had already been thoroughly imprinted on Meng Jia's soul.
But on that day, the mark disappeared.
"So I copied these two lines of poetry on a piece of letter paper, trying to figure out the key to it, but from that day on, everything was normal, except..."
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Meng Jia's face. "Except for Xiao Shu's misunderstanding, nothing else happened."
Gu Ning raised an eyebrow, "You didn't explain?"
"This matter..." Meng Jia looked at Gu Ning, "I don't know who is behind this, so I dare not act rashly."
"Master, do you know?" Gu Ning turned around and asked the most crucial question. If Meng Jia was unwilling to tell even Song Mingyue, then this matter would become tricky.
"Yes." Meng Jia nodded. "This person can come and go without a trace in our Mingyue Sect. I think he must be a peerless master and he knows our Mingyue Sect very well."
"There is a spy hidden deep in the Mingyue Sect." Gu Ning was confident, but then became confused. "He knows about your past, but I don't have any past to speak of. What does he mean by telling me this?"
Meng Jia was silent for a while before saying, "Perhaps... he has already noticed your difference, Junior Sister."
"What's... different about me?" Gu Ning reacted halfway through his words, "Big Brother, do you mean that it's because of the power of the laws of heaven that I control?"
"Maybe..." Meng Jia pointed at Gu Ning and said silently, "Because of the Way of Life."
The way of the common people concerns the future rise and fall of the entire world of immortal cultivation.
Thinking of this, Gu Ning was still fine, but Meng Jia could no longer remain calm. He grabbed Gu Ning and ran towards the Mingyue Palace.
