Volume 1 Chapter 32: Cliff Jump Rescue

  The divine rainbow suddenly appeared, and Du Mu Changqing took the Qingyi disciple who had picked up the jade hairpin, like a shooting star, towards Yuzang Mountain. In the blink of an eye, they arrived at the foot of Yuzang Mountain.

  "Where did you pick up the jade hairpin?" The dark eyes scanned the surrounding dense and lush ancient trees, Du Mu Changqing pursed his thin lips, his voice somewhat tense.

  "On the mountain top, I picked it up on the mountain top." The young disciple in green clothes said hastily.

  The divine rainbow reappeared, and in the blink of an eye, Du Mu Changqing brought him back to the mountaintop.

  On the top of the mountain, it is quiet at this moment. From a large piece of ancient wood that was cut off at the waist, and the broken thorns, even the black bloodstains on the ground, it's not hard to see that a fierce battle had taken place here not long ago.

  "That hairpin was picked up here." This time, without waiting for Du Mu Qing to ask again, the young disciple in green quickly walked to the edge of the cliff and pointed to a pile of grass on the ground.

  As soon as the words fell, Du Mu Changqing appeared beside him like a wisp of smoke, and his handsome face suddenly turned deathly pale, with a look of being lost and disheartened.

  Because he saw not only the marks of fighting, but also a very familiar paw print, that was Dahei's paw print. For more than a year, he often saw it on Yuqing Peak, so he wouldn't mistake it!

  The big black paw print, and the familiar jade hairpin, which was actually picked up at the edge of the cliff... It can almost be determined that the person who had a fierce battle on this mountain top is Qin Luo Yi, and it is very likely that Qin Luo Yi has already fallen off the cliff!

  Below is the famous place of nine deaths and one life - Lion Tiger Leaps!

  At this thought, Du Mu Changqing clenched his fists hanging by his side, his pitch-black eyes filled with pain and anger, a soaring killing intent burst out from his body.

  It's been two whole days, and he didn't dare to imagine what would happen if Qin Luoyi fell... As soon as he thought that she might have had an accident, his heart felt like it was being pricked by tens of thousands of needles, aching so much that he could hardly breathe.

  Looking at the greatly changed expression of Duanmu Shibo, the Qingyi disciple didn't know what had happened, and his heart was filled with anxiety and unease. He didn't dare to ask, so he could only stand there quietly with his head down.

  "Boo! Boo......"

  A distant, crisp bird call finally awakened Du Mu Changqing from the depths of his anger and pain. He gazed out at the Lion Tiger Cliff, pursed his lips tightly, and a hint of determination flashed in his dark eyes.

  Maybe things aren't that bad, Qin Luo Yi just fell down, he shouldn't think of the worst, maybe she and Da Hei are still okay, hiding there waiting for people to rescue them.

  As he thought of this, the listlessness on his body was swept away, he clenched his fists and suddenly turned around, took out a jade pendant from his sleeve and handed it to the Qingyi disciple, saying in a severe tone: "You take my jade pendant, go to the main peak immediately to find the sect leader, tell him that Qin Luoyi Shifu has been missing for two days, it's very likely that he fell into the Lion Tiger Gorge."

  Qing Yi's face turned pale: "Duanmu Shibo... it can't be, how can you be certain that the one who fell was Qin Shibo?!"

  Qin Shifu was the gatekeeper's disciple of the Xuanmen Sect, and it was said that his innate talent for cultivation was astonishing. More than a year ago, when he had just arrived at the sect, he was only a junior cultivator, but now he had already reached the peak of martial arts... How could she possibly run to this place? Who would be so bold as to challenge her to a private duel?

  Du Mu's gaze fell on the special footprint of Da Hei, filled with pain and sharpness, then moved to the hairpin in his hand, his voice low and hoarse: "I also hope it's not her... but this jade hairpin is hers."

  "Ah?" The Qing Yi disciple's mouth was agape, exclaiming in shock, his expression utterly stunned. The jade hairpin he had picked up actually belonged to Qin Shifu, no wonder Duan Mu Shifu was so certain that the person who fell down was Qin Shifu.

  "Hurry up!" Du Mu Changqing slightly furrowed his brow, his expression cold and stern, and said lightly: "Remember, go directly to the sect leader, don't waste any time!"

  "Yes!"

  The young disciple in blue clothes didn't dare to delay any longer, and quickly ran towards the Piaomiao Sect. After running for a few steps, he couldn't shake off the feeling that Master Duanmu's expression was somewhat off, and also wondered why he had been tasked with delivering the message instead of using the divine rainbow to fly there himself, which would have been much faster?

  Deeply puzzled in his heart, he turned back to take a look, and just happened to see Du Mu Changqing's slender and handsome figure falling down towards the Lion Tiger Cliff.

  "Duanmu Shibo, what are you going to do?" The young disciple in green clothes was greatly shocked and hastily ran back, shouting loudly at the top of the cliff.

  "Hurry up! What are you still dawdling about?" Du Mu Changqing heard his shout, raised his head and sternly scolded him, then ignored him and accelerated towards the cliff, in the blink of an eye, his figure became smaller and smaller, until he disappeared from sight.

  The young man in blue stood up, his hands and feet still shaking slightly, his face shocked as he muttered to himself: "There shouldn't be any formations down there, Master Duan just jumped down like that, he must have wanted to save Master Qin... But jumping down like this is too dangerous... What if he can't save him, Master Duan will also... or maybe Master Qin didn't even fall to the ground, and the hairpin just happened to fall here by accident. Ah, forget it, Master Duan has already jumped down, I'd better go find the sect leader quickly." He stomped his foot, not daring to hesitate any longer, turned around and rushed towards the Xuanmiao Sect at the fastest speed of his life.

  Du Mu Changqing jumped down the mountain valley and soon fell to the ground. This was not his first time entering the Lion Tiger Valley, but under the Yuzang Mountain, he had never been here before. The place was treacherous and unpredictable, even he didn't dare to be careless.

  His sharp eyes scanned the surroundings and soon discovered two fallen thorny bushes. Following the fallen thorns, he didn't walk far before seeing two skeletons. His heart tightened suddenly, holding his breath as he walked past.

  There were signs of being torn by sharp teeth on the skeleton, and there was a large patch of black blood under the body. It should not have been dead for long... Du Mu Changqing's heart was painful, but his observation power was still extremely keen, and he immediately saw that these two corpses were not Qin Luoyi's, because the skeleton was very large, such a skeleton should belong to a man, and the height was also wrong. Moreover, these two people had obviously suffered serious injuries before falling down!

  They searched around again, but found no signs of Da Hei and Qin Luo Yi passing by, nor even the slightest sign of them trampling on thorns and weeds. The scene only had two obvious traces of collapse, looking at the direction of the run, it should be left by those two people who were already dead.

  His anxious heart slowly calmed down... staring at the two corpses, suddenly, a flash of inspiration in his mind, perhaps... Qin Luoyi and Dahei never fell?

  "If it's really like that, it would be great!" He looked around, muttering with some delight.

  However, under the Lion Tiger Ferry, although it is not possible to fly with a rainbow, it can be supported by spiritual power to fly at low altitude, and the traces left on the ground will also be very few. In his heart, he hoped that Qin Luo's clothes had not fallen off, but he still did not stop searching, just in case there was something that he had overlooked.

  "Hah! Hah!"

  After searching for a while, a strange noise suddenly came from the front. His eyes flashed with a faint light, and he quietly slipped past.

  It's a small-sized fox, with a long tail, panting heavily as it runs forward, and behind it, a wolf-like fierce beast is chasing closely.

  Duanmu Changqing's body moved slightly, and with a light and easy motion, he caught the running fox. The wolf, who had not expected anyone to be here, revealed its ferocity, let out a fierce howl, and pounced on him.

  "Looking for death!"

  Du Mu's eyes flashed with a cold light, his arm rose, and a powerful spiritual force shot out, instantly killing the wolf. He didn't even glance at the wolf's corpse, his cold gaze fixed on the fox in his hand.

  The fox was startled and shook, knowing that the man's cultivation was much higher than its own. With a flash of his eyes, he put on a pitiful look and looked at him, begging, "Don't kill me."

  Du Mu remained unmoved, still coldly staring at it: "If you want me not to kill you, that's fine, but you have to find someone for me. If you find them, I won't kill you."

  The fox's eyes lit up and it hastily said, "You say so, I'll definitely help." The aura on this man was too terrifying; if it wanted to survive, it knew it could only listen to him.

  "Didn't someone and a spiritual beast fall here two days ago?" Du Mu Changqing asked, his eyes locked tightly on it.

  "Right, right, someone has fallen here." The fox's eyes flickered and nodded hastily.

  Du Mu's heart sank for a moment, then he thought of the fox's cunning nature and feared it was lying. He continued, "So tell me, what gender is the person who fell, how old are they, and what does their spirit beast look like..."

  "It's a girl, very young... The spirit beast has grown a coat of white fur, it's beautiful..." The little fox's eyes rolled around, knowing that the human in front of her didn't believe it, so she quickly described Qin Luo Yi and Da Hei's appearance in detail.

  Two days ago, because its cultivation was too low, it wasn't summoned to chase after that girl... However, it still quietly followed and took a look. The impression of the young girl who poisoned their Majestic Bull King until its skin cracked and flesh rotted, making her furious to the point of almost vomiting blood, was very deep.

  After hearing Xiao Hu Li's words, Duanmu Changqing's expression changed, and unexpectedly Qin Luo Yi and Da Hei really fell down!

  He took a deep breath and suppressed the pain and worry in his heart, then spoke again in a low voice: "Where is she now? As long as you take me to find her, I'll let you go!"

  "Heh heh, if you ask others, they might not even know, but asking me is just right. However, please don't kill me, I'll take you to find her." The little fox said with a forced smile, glancing at the wolf's corpse not far away.

  In his heart, however, he was secretly worried. Although he knew where the woman was, if he took this human who had trespassed on his territory to find her... This man might not let him off, and in a fit of rage, the Bull King might even smash him into pulp! No way, he couldn't take him directly to find the woman; he needed to think of a good plan first.

  ……

  "Haha, this old ginseng must be thousands of years old, just right for refining elixirs."

  "Amethyst...not bad, it's much bigger than the one we bought last time."

  "Aha, there's also a Seven-Resonance Fruit here!"

  Under the escort of the strongest Black Emperor at Lion Tiger Cliff, Da Hei and Qin Luo Yi were very relaxed and carefree, strolling around in the mountains. Before long, they would make astonishing discoveries. This place was simply a treasure trove, with spiritual fruits, spiritual plants, and even crystal stones worth a city. After two days of exploration, their harvests had already piled up into a small mountain.

  Not only was Da Hei Huan Xi delighted, but also Qin Luo Yi was extremely excited. In the past two days, in order to fight against that fierce cow, she had lost a lot of talismans and spiritual elixirs, and now she had obtained so many things, even if she couldn't go out for a short time, she wouldn't have to worry, let alone here, where no one dared to make a move on them.

  However, compared to their excitement, Hei Di was in great pain. If those things had fallen on the other half of Da Hei that it cared about, then so be it! But they all ended up in Qin Luo's woman's pocket!

  Even now, it can't figure out how the powerful and mighty Black Clan was contracted by such a weak human.

  It's actually a soul contract! For the rest of his life, he would be bound by that woman! If it weren't for this, on the first day itself, it would have split Qin Luoyi in two. The mysterious treasure within her body was even able to shake it open, making it extremely curious.

  Unfortunately, for the sake of Da Hei's life, I had no choice but to give up!

  "Snow pear!"

  After walking dozens of miles, Dahei suddenly saw a huge snow ginseng tree in front of him, with many fruit hanging on the tree that looked like human-shaped ginseng dolls. His eyes lit up and he rushed over quickly.

  This Snow Ginseng Fruit is extremely precious and can be used to refine the 12th-grade Snow Ginseng Pill, which is a treasure that can nourish one's life essence. In an auction house, a single Snow Ginseng Pill can fetch a sky-high price of nearly ten million taels!

  But its strength has regressed a lot, it's because the life essence was damaged during the great war... With so many Snow Ginseng Fruits, countless Snow Ginseng Pills can be refined. At that time, not to mention restoring cultivation to its peak period, at least half of it can be restored!

  Qin Luo Yi is currently unable to refine 12th-grade elixirs, but being unable to refine them now doesn't mean she won't be able to in the future. With her innate talent for refining elixirs, it's likely that within a few years, she'll be able to refine 12th-grade elixirs.

  The more I think about it, the more excited I become. Suddenly, with a burst of energy, I climb up the snow pear tree and quickly start picking them.

  Qin Luo wore a white dress, fluttering gently as she stood under the tree, her lips curled into a smile as she gazed at the busy black creature above, while the Black Emperor beside her grew darker and darker in complexion.

  Soon, more than a hundred fruits on the Snow Ginseng Tree were picked off by half. Da Hei still showed no signs of stopping, but Hei Di could no longer bear it.

  He leaped to its side and persuaded, "Enough, you can't give her all of this. The Snow Ginseng Fruit only bears fruit once every three thousand years, we should at least leave some for ourselves!"

  Dà Hēi heard this, hung down his claws, and looked at it with his dark eyes. He then looked at Qín Luò Yī and sighed: "You also know I can't go out, her cultivation is not high, if I don't prepare some good things for her, she'll be dead, and I'll be dead too!"

  Actually, it didn't want to pick it, but couldn't help picking it either, with a gloomy look on its face. In fact, it was laughing so hard in its heart that it almost cramped up.

  "Then don't let her go, it's safest for her to stay here with me. I also have spiritual fruit to prolong her life, and you don't have to worry that she'll be taken out by others!" The Black Emperor's eyes flashed a cold light as he gritted his teeth. He had always felt that Qin Luoyi was safer when kept under his eye, let alone the strange thing on her body - if she went out, it would definitely attract attention!

  Dahai let out another sigh, shook his head and said: "She is my contractor, you also saw that she has been saying to go up, her attitude was so resolute. If we don't let her go up, she will be unhappy, and with just one thought, she can make my soul fly away!"

  Hei Di's eyebrows were tightly knotted, and he was extremely depressed... This woman, not only can't be killed, but also has to be treated like an ancestor! Looking at the Xue Shen fruit on the tree that it had always treasured, Hei Di gritted his teeth, steeled himself, and helped Da Hei pick them together.

  Although it is the strongest in this field, for tens of thousands of years, because it cannot break through the ban on the sky, it has been lonely and isolated, without even a companion. The loneliness is heart-wrenching, and now that a companion has finally arrived, who is its mother, it must help to keep its life safe!

  When they spoke, their voices were low, but Qin Luoyi was close enough to hear them clearly. She bit her lip and turned her face away, making a great effort to suppress the urge to burst out laughing.

  She had no idea that Da Hei was so good at deceiving people... Two days ago, he used all his strength and still didn't hurt a single hair on the Black Emperor's head, and in the end, he could only admit defeat. Then she heard the Black Emperor say that even if the beast tribe below Lion Tiger Cliff had very strong cultivation, they could only stay there and never go up again. Suddenly, Da Hei changed his attitude and became extremely friendly and polite to the Black Emperor.

  These two days, Hei Di lost a lot of treasures. Apart from not entering the treasury of Hei Di to rob openly, under the Lion Tiger Cliff, as long as it was something that caught its eye, Da Hei would definitely get its hands on it. Of course, the reason used was always the same, saying that in order for her to quickly advance and become stronger, she could stay safely under the Lion Tiger Cliff...

  Qin Luo stayed here for only two short days, but he also learned a lot about the Lion and Tiger Cliff.

  Hei Di is the true monarch here, with cultivation so powerful that no one dares to defy him. Ordinary treasures on the ground are nothing to him, and he doesn't care about them. For rare treasures like Xue Shen Guo or Zi Xuan Shi, without his permission, no beast clan would dare to take them privately. Unexpectedly, for Da Hei, they willingly handed it over to her!

  As for Da Hei... Da Hei naturally won't stay here forever, what ideas he comes up with, she also knows clearly in her heart.
