At this time, Linghu Chong walked over with a look of despair.

He was also squeezed out.

“Okay, senior brother.”

Jiang Ning nodded and walked towards the Jade Maiden Peak with Linghu Chong.

Linghu Chong didn’t say much along the way. Jiang Ning remembered that he was a chatterbox, so why did he become so quiet?

“Brother, what’s wrong? Are you worried?”

Linghu Chong’s body stiffened for a moment, he turned to look at Jiang Ning, and saw that face that was full of confusion and concern.

Linghu Chong shook his head slowly and revealed an ugly smile.

“No.”

After saying that, he continued walking forward like a zombie.

The voice was lonely and the back figure revealed a sense of desolation.

Looking at his back, Jiang Ning smiled slightly.

He had no intention of distinguishing the right and wrong between Linghu Chong and Yue Buqun in the original novel, nor did he care.

But if Linghu Chong in this world dares to betray Yue Buqun or takes any action that is detrimental to the Huashan Sect, he will kill Linghu Chong with his own hands.

Linghu Chong, who was walking in front, suddenly felt a chill on his back. He subconsciously turned his head and found that it was his junior brother behind him, with that smiling expression on his face.

illusion?

Linghu Chong shook his head, turned around and continued to lead the way. Not long after, the two arrived at the Jade Maiden Peak.

The towering Yunu Peak is like a sharp sword piercing straight into the clouds.

“Junior brother, other places in Huashan are all picturesque with green mountains and clear waters, and the scenery is extremely beautiful with lush vegetation, but the Siguo Cliff on the Jade Maiden Peak is different.”

As Linghu Chong climbed the peak, he said to Jiang Ning, “There are no flowers or trees in that place. It is surrounded by stone walls. There is nothing else except that cave. Not even insects or birds can be seen.”

At this point, Linghu Chong smiled at Jiang Ning and said, “That’s a good thing. If you go to Siguo Cliff in the summer, there won’t be mosquito bites.”

“But you have to be careful when you go up. When you are close to the Cliff of Repentance, there is a large smooth rock one meter to the right. It is very smooth. Be careful not to step on it, otherwise you may fall if you slip.”

Jiang Ning smiled and said, “I see. Thank you for your reminder, Senior Brother. Hearing that you are so familiar with the place and remember the location of every stone so clearly, it feels like I am back home.”

The smile on Linghu Chong’s face suddenly disappeared. He rolled his eyes at Jiang Ning and remained silent for the rest of the journey.

This mountain with an altitude of several hundred meters is indeed difficult to climb, and the road is very rugged. It took us nearly half a day to walk this distance.

“Hey!”

Linghu Chong jumped left and right, then reached the top in one step, and Jiang Ning followed closely behind.

This place was just as Linghu Chong described, with nothing on all sides except a stone cave.

Linghu Chong put his hands on his hips and looked at the place with emotion, looking around to see if there was anything different here from the last time he left home.

However, after watching for a while, Linghu Chong remembered what Jiang Ning said at the foot of the mountain: coming to the Cliff of Repentance was like going home, which made Linghu Chong’s expression tense again.

Jiang Ning looked at the cave, then at the scenery in the distance. He saw mountain peaks in the distance. The horizon was connected to the blue sky and white clouds. From time to time, a few birds flew across the air below. A ray of sunlight from the sky fell on the Jade Maiden Peak, dyeing it with a touch of gold.

“Tsk, why didn’t I realize that Huashan is also beautiful from this place before?”

Linghu Chong crossed his arms with one hand and supported his chin with the other, marveling at the beautiful scenery.

Chapter 21: Breaking the Wall

Chapter 21: Breaking the Wall

After taking a look at the beautiful scenery, Jiang Ning turned his gaze towards the Siguo Cliff and looked around.

There are stone walls all around and nothing worth looking at.

Jiang Ning withdrew his gaze and walked into the cave.

After entering the cave, Jiang Ning found that the place was empty. There was nothing else except a huge rock on the ground of the cave. There was no other entrance to the cave. There were only a few holes in the stone ceiling above his head. The sunlight shone down from above, making the place less dark.

Jiang Ning came to the side of the boulder and looked it up and down. The boulder was smooth and very shiny.

Not finding anything special about the boulder, he shifted his gaze away from it and looked at the surrounding stone walls. He discovered three words engraved on the stone wall not far from the boulder.

‘The wind is clear and bright.’

Jiang Ning took a look at the words on the stone wall. These three words looked like they were carved with weapons. The handwriting was vigorous and powerful, and it could be seen that the owner of the handwriting was good at handwriting.

“I was also puzzled when I saw this name. I didn’t expect that the powerful senior of the Sword Sect was also punished to face the wall at the Cliff of Repentance. I guess he must have a strict master, haha.”

Linghu Chong had already walked into the cave and laughed when he saw Jiang Ning reading the words on the stone wall.

After taking a look, Jiang Ning looked away and walked around the cave, searching every corner of the cave.

“What’s so good about this shabby place?”

Linghu Chong scratched his head, not understanding Jiang Ning’s behavior. Then he walked out, stretched, and looked at the scenery in the distance that he had never cared about before.

Inside the cave.

Jiang Ning frowned slightly after walking around the cave.

No abnormalities were found.

However, his gaze suddenly froze when he swept over the three words Feng Qingyang again.

There was a crack spreading out at the position where it was attached to the boulder, and on it were engraved the three words “Feng Qingyang”. The crack connected to the engraved words, and it could not be seen at all if one did not look carefully.

Jiang Ning squatted down, reached out his hand to touch the stone wall below, and then knocked it again.

dong dong!

It’s different from the sound made by knocking on other stone walls.

A solid stone wall makes a dull sound when struck, while a hollow one makes a crisp sound when struck.

This place is the entrance.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ning put his hand on the boulder and pushed it hard.

Boom!

The noise in the cave soon alarmed Linghu Chong outside. He rushed in and found that Jiang Ning had moved away the huge rock where he often sat.

“Brother, what are you doing?”

Linghu Chong looked at Jiang Ning in confusion.

“Big Brother, there is something wrong with this stone wall.”

Jiang Ning looked back at him and said.

“What is the problem?”

Linghu Chong looked confused.

“Come and see.”

Jiang Ning called Linghu Chong over, and knocked on the stone wall below Feng Qingyang’s name in front of him, then knocked on the stone wall above, and then turned to look at Linghu Chong.

“How is it? Did you find the problem?”

“…No problem.”

Linghu Chong was still in a daze.

Damn, retarded.

Seeing him like this, Jiang Ning stopped interacting with him and said directly: “Look at this position, the sound when it is struck is crisp, while other places are dull when struck.”

Linghu Chong reacted immediately.

“You said that the place where the crisp sound comes from is hollow?”

His quick reaction this time impressed Jiang Ning.

When Linghu Chong saw Jiang Ning’s expression, he immediately became delighted.

He liked drinking, so he carried a wine gourd with him. When he knocked on his wine gourd when it was empty, it made a crisp sound, and when he knocked on it when it was full of wine, it made a dull sound.

“good.”

Jiang Ning nodded, then stood up and drew the sword from his waist.

“what are you up to?”

Linghu Chong asked after seeing his actions.

Jiang Ning said without turning his head.

“See what’s in there.”

“???”

Linghu Chong looked a little confused.

Should we break this place just because it is hollow?

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Jiang Ning drew his sword and slashed at the hollow stone wall three or four times, but failed to break it, only leaving a series of marks on it.

“Brother, get out of the way, let me do it!”

When Jiang Ning was about to continue chopping, Linghu Chong’s voice sounded behind him.

Linghu Chong was seen holding the huge rock he often sat on with both hands above his head, his face flushed red.

“Get out of the way.”

Jiang Ning stepped aside upon seeing this, and Linghu Chong raised the stone and smashed it forward with all his strength.

boom!

The huge rock smashed a hole in the hollow stone wall and got stuck on the entrance.

“It’s really hollow.”

Linghu Chong stared at this scene with eyes wide open.
