No. 8 is once again schemed against

"Sister Shaoyang, the Sword Testing Conference has already begun, why are you still here?" This person is Yun Liang

Good! Qi Feng said as he jumped onto the flying sword, and then the flying sword slowly ascended, disappearing with a whoosh from its original position

"Who I am is not important; what matters is that I know why the person who framed you wants to harm you. Moreover, I also know that they are not targeting you, but rather your sister. If you want to know more, just follow me." After saying this, he turned and left, giving Qi Feng no opportunity to think.

He just recognized Qi Feng, so he retreated into the venue. At this moment, he has already met with Yun Liang and informed him of this matter

"How long have I been away from the sect?" Qi Feng saw her cold demeanor and felt a wave of frustration in his heart. Who exactly has harmed whom in this situation?

Suddenly, a disciple appeared in front of him, blocking their way, and then said to Qi Feng: "You are Qi Feng, aren't you?"

I can tell that Shaoyang did not deceive me, as I am well aware of her character, having collaborated together for more than two years

Although his appearance has not changed significantly, he has grown a whole head taller than before, which is not something that can happen in just one month

"What is wrong with you?" Shaoyang saw Qifeng standing still, staring blankly at the gatehouse, his expression still somewhat shocked and puzzled.

He ... ..." She pointed in the direction where Qi Feng had left, but there was no trace of him at all. For a moment, she did not know how to explain it.

What exactly has he been through? Shaoyang suddenly felt that she could not see through Qi Feng; he now exuded an air of mystery all around him. Although they were very close, he gave her a sense of distance.

"What is wrong with you?" Shaoyang furrowed her brows, as she truly could not understand what Qi Feng was trying to portray, being so jumpy and unpredictable.

I have no need to deceive you. " Shaoyang paused for a moment and continued, "Furthermore, I can only express my apologies for the previous matter, but I did not do anything wrong in that situation. After all, you were the only one present at the scene when the incident occurred. Although this matter does not concern you, you bear a part of the responsibility.

"That won't do, I need to clarify this." Qi Feng thought to himself, then looked at Shao Yang and said: "Sister Shao Yang, I have a question I would like to ask you"

"A month and a half, almost two months, what happened?" Shaoyang found Qi Feng's question somewhat strange. If it weren't for the fact that she didn't seem to be joking, she wouldn't have bothered to engage in conversation with her.

The atmosphere on the flying sword was somewhat awkward, as Shaoyang maintained a steady gaze throughout, showing no intention of explaining anything to Qifeng

You said! '' Shaoyang turned his head and said with a calm expression

Qi Feng did not notice Shaoyang's gaze, but felt a sharp stare ahead. He instinctively looked up, only to find that there was not a single figure in sight.

... ...

However, what he does not know is that there are usually guards at this venue, but the guard in question is the same disciple of the Qinglian Sword Sect who previously threw Qi Feng into the Valley of Despair

"Not good, it's a scam!" Shaoyang seemed to realize something and wanted to call out to Qifeng, but suddenly a person appeared in front of her.

"Senior brother, I did not deceive you; I truly saw Qi Feng, I really did," Shaoyang said

Elder Yan has already clarified the previous matters; the one who framed you is an outer disciple named Zhang Meng, and I believe you should be familiar with him

Qi Feng remembered that preparations for the Sword Testing Conference had already begun before he was cast into the Hopeless Valley, and it was scheduled to take place in a little over a month

"Brother Yunliang, I apologize, I have some personal matters to attend to..." Saying this, she bypassed Yunliang to chase after Qi Feng, but there was no trace of him to be found.

Thus, the two individuals arrived at Wuhua Mountain in silence.

"Wait a moment, are you going to find Junior Sister Qin Mu?" Seeing Qi Feng speak in this manner, Shao Yang's expression also turned somewhat unpleasant, but upon seeing him walk towards the Qinglian Sword Sect, he hurriedly called out to him.

Because I have finally managed to leave a good impression on Qin Mu, if this brat shows up, all my previous efforts will be in vain

"Brother Yunliang, quickly go tell Sister Qin that Qifeng is in danger!" Shaoyang said hurriedly

Moreover, from different perspectives, this swordsmanship appears distinct.

Shaoyang, who was standing nearby, found it somewhat strange; she could not understand how this person knew that Qi Feng had come here. It is worth noting that the entire Qinglian Sword Sect believed that Qi Feng was already dead, and she had only learned of this recently.

Moreover, this location is quite a distance from Wuhua Mountain. Although I possess physical strength, I feel that it also requires time. If I were to run there, I fear that by the time I arrive, the Sword Testing Conference would have already concluded.

It is not that Qi Feng and the others did not want to fly directly up with their swords, but rather that flying with swords is not permitted here. Fortunately, the mountain is not too high, and soon the two arrived at the summit.

He just came out, I just saw him...

No, nothing at all. Compared to his own speculation, the actual situation is much better than he had anticipated. Fortunately, it is not ten years; otherwise, he really would not know how to face Qin Mu.

Zhang Meng? Impossible, we...

"Wang Chen, you are not joking with me, are you? Did you not say that you had already left him in the Valley of Despair?" Yun Liang also looked surprised, as there has never been a precedent in history for anyone to come out of the Valley of Despair.

At this moment, Shaoyang felt somewhat confused, thinking to himself: "Could it be that I am really seeing things? That can't be possible..."

"I am Qi Feng, who are you?" Qi Feng did not know this man and found it somewhat strange how he knew him

"I said, Shaoyang junior sister, do you know what you are talking about? Qi Feng has long since fallen into the Valley of Despair, don't you know?" Yun Liang feigned a look of confusion.

No, it's nothing! Although he said this, his expression had already betrayed him

"Are you saying that I spent a year in that canyon while ten years passed outside?" Qi Feng found it hard to believe. If that were true, he truly did not know if, when he saw Qin Mu again after ten years, their relationship could return to what it once was

At present, there was no conversation. Before long, they arrived at the mountainside of Wuhua Mountain, where there was a platform. Shaoyang controlled the flying sword to land on the platform, and then the two of them ascended the mountain on foot

Strange! Qi Feng felt puzzled, but not seeing anyone, he could only temporarily suppress the strangeness in his heart

If you are going to find Junior Sister Qin Mu, then let us go to Wuhua Mountain together, where the Sword Testing Conference is currently taking place, and Junior Sister Qin Mu is also there

Many individuals have derived astonishing sword techniques from this stone, such as the "Qinglian Sword Classic" of the Qinglian Sword Sect, which was comprehended from it. Additionally, other sword techniques from various sects have also been understood based on this stone

However, there is a peculiar stone here, upon which some strange humanoid patterns are engraved, resembling several small figures practicing swordsmanship

Qi Feng did not pay her any attention and continued on his own path. He was anxious to meet Qin Mu and had no time to waste with her here

I am certain," Wang Chen nodded and said earnestly

However, the words "Sword Gate Sacred Land" were inscribed above the gatehouse, which was completely different from the "Ancient Sword Gate" he had seen before. Moreover, the characters appeared somewhat plain, lacking the grandeur that belittled all living beings.

Where are the others? Yun Liang asked

Wuhua Mountain is the sacred site of the Sword Gate in the world. Legend has it that this was the residence of a certain Sword Gate during ancient times. However, for unknown reasons, the Sword Gate was destroyed, and all disciples vanished overnight. Along with them, many introductions about it also disappeared.

I left him in the Valley of Despair, and at that moment, I saw him being engulfed by the mist. But, but he...'' The king's minister also wore a face of disbelief; he still vividly remembered the events of that time, how could he possibly be mistaken

When he saw the situation at the top of the mountain, he was completely stunned, for what he observed was exactly the same as what he had seen earlier at the Ancient Sword Gate in the Hopeless Canyon

"What happened?" Yun Liang, seeing her in such a state, immediately changed to a strange expression and asked

"The fact is as such, whether you believe it or not. Also, I need to hurry to Wuhua Mountain. If you want to go, I can give you a ride. If not, then we shall part ways here." Shaoyang interrupted Qifeng's words.

Hmm! Shaoyang nodded, then controlled the flying sword to come to Qi Feng's side, saying: "Come up!"

Thus, this place has become the origin of the swordsmanship in the world, and it has also become the sacred ground of the Sword Gate

Although Qi Feng had many questions in his heart, seeing her indifferent attitude towards him made him feel resentful, and he directly ignored her presence.

"Sword Testing Conference?" Qi Feng paused for a moment, then turned his head to look at Shao Yang and asked, "You didn't deceive me, did you?"

Alright, follow me. You know how temperamental Master Uncle can be; if he gets anxious waiting, you will be the one to suffer. " With that, Yun Liang walked into the venue

Are you sure that the person who came with Junior Sister Shaoyang is indeed Qi Feng?" Yun Liang calmed his emotions; no matter what, he could not allow Qi Feng and Qin Mu to meet

As for the Sword Testing Conference, it is a grand event for the various sword sects across the world to engage in mutual exchange and competition, held once every ten years. At that time, all the new generation disciples from the sword sects will take the stage to compete.

"Is it related to my sister?" Qi Feng felt a tightness in his heart and, without thinking, followed after.

What has he been through these days? Shaoyang noticed that he did not want to talk about it, so she did not press further, but she was somewhat curious, as Qi Feng's changes were indeed too significant.

"Stop messing around. Have you ever heard of anyone coming out of the Valley of Despair?" Yun Liang waved his hand, interrupting Shao Yang's words, and said, "Alright, hurry back with me. Your master uncle is waiting for you."

Qi Feng was unaware that a conspiracy against him had already been born, nor did he have the time to think about it, as he was constantly imagining the scenario of meeting Qin Mu in his mind, making it difficult for him to concentrate.

During the time I spent in the Valley of Despair, although I did not keep track of the days, at least a year must have passed. This means that, logically speaking, the Sword Testing Conference should have already taken place. So why is it being held again now

Thus, the Sword Gate of the world only knows that this place was once a powerful sect of sword cultivators, yet it does not know the name of this sect.

In that case, let him die once more. Yun Liang, with a determined heart, said: I will take care of this matter; you should refrain from appearing for the time being to avoid being recognized by him

I understand. Wang Chen nodded; given the current circumstances, he wished he could remain in the background, thus he had no objections to Yun Liang's words

Could it be that time in that canyon passes more quickly than outside? Qi Feng could not help but speculate, as this was the only possibility that could explain this phenomenon

Regardless of which gate it is, or the numerous buildings inside, they are simply identical.

A month and a half, how is that possible..." Qi Feng's eyes widened in disbelief. He had originally thought that more than ten years had passed outside, but it had only been a month and a half, which left him even more shocked.

What does it mean to have part of the responsibility? I don't understand! Qi Feng was somewhat unclear about her meaning
