Fifteen years later.
It was already the third month of spring, but snow was dancing on the peak of Taibai Mountain. The white snowflakes swirled aimlessly in the air, like fairies performing a beautiful song and dance. The surrounding cypresses swayed their branches and leaves in the cold wind, as if they were clapping and cheering for the fairies 'wonderful performance. Occasionally, a few large eagles would fly across the sky, their chirping bringing a hint of sound to the silent snow. The vast expanse of whiteness stretched as far as the eye could see. Amidst this fatiguing whiteness, a few pink plum blossoms suddenly fell from the sky. The moment the flowers fell, a young woman in white descended from the sky. Her long hair flowed in the wind, and her skin was as smooth as snow. Under her willowy eyebrows, there was a pair of delicate and clever big eyes. Her graceful figure was like a willow in March. The woman looked down at the plum blossoms that were about to fall to the ground and smiled faintly, With a gentle wave of her jade-like arm, she actually ingeniously pulled all the scattered flowers into her embrace.
She stood quietly in the snow with her beautiful eyes closed and a smile on her face, as if she was smelling the mixture of snow and plum blossoms. Slowly, she opened her beautiful eyes and smiled as she opened her arms and scattered the beautiful plum blossoms on the snow. Then, she took out a long sword with a jade phoenix carved on the hilt from her waist. She gently swung the sword with her jade-like arm like a flying dragon as she swam on the snow. In the blink of an eye, the pink plum blossoms instantly turned into powder and scattered in the air. The woman's white dress fluttered in the wind, like a blooming snow lotus. The sound of swords rang out, startling the birds perched on the ancient cypress. They screamed and flew into the sky together. In their panic, they collided with each other, and a few beautiful feathers fell to the ground. The young woman giggled, sheathed her sword, and walked toward the beautiful feathers…
"Sister, Qing Xiang thought that you went to the hot spring at the bottom of the valley. So you're secretly practicing your swordsmanship here!”A pleasant voice came from the end of the snow. The woman in white turned around with a smile. Just as she turned around, a beautiful girl in red clothes stood in front of her with a smile.
"It's a fragrance. It seems that your qinggong has improved a lot!”The woman in white smiled faintly and looked at her younger sister, who was three years younger than her, with approval. At the same time, she felt an indescribable pain in her heart because no matter how hard she trained, she could not catch up to her younger sister's qinggong.
The woman in red giggled and shouted proudly,""Who asked me to be a beautiful phoenix? How can I fly slower than a phoenix? Sister, don't you think so?" After saying that, she stared at the woman in white with her eyes wide open, waiting for her response.
The woman in white patted her shoulder and said,""Yeah, how can a phoenix fly so slowly!”
"Sister, you are also a phoenix. You can't keep being unable to fly!”Qing Xiang looked at the woman in white with disdain and continued,""We can't embarrass Father!”
When the woman in white heard her sister's words, she felt even more uncomfortable. She had practiced martial arts three years earlier than her sister, but she could not catch up to her in terms of Qinggong. It was no wonder that her sister made fun of her. She hung her head helplessly and thought to herself," I must fly, I must!
Seeing her sister lower her head, the woman in red stuck out her tongue and whispered,""I was just joking. Sister, are you angry?”
"No, no!" The woman in white slowly raised her head and forced a smile. Although her smile was unnatural, it still made people feel relaxed and happy. She was the elder sister, so why would she be angry at her younger sister's words? What's more, her younger sister was right. They were the daughters of Leng Feihu, the leader of the White Bone Cult, who was famous in Jianghu. They were known as the " Phoenix of Guanzhong ". Some people in Jianghu said that they were omnipotent fairies, and some people scolded them as demonesses who ate people without spitting out bones. If they did not have good Lightness Skills, they would be laughed at by the people in Jianghu.
"It's good that you're fine. How about we go to the hot spring?”Leng Qingxiang said with a smile as she fanned her large eyes. Her smile was not as gentle and pleasant as her sister's, but it was innocent and pleasing to the eyes.
Qiu Yihan was not in the mood to play at all. She wanted to improve her Qing Gong as soon as possible. However, seeing her sister's sincere invitation, she could not reject it. She could only nod her head lightly and agree to her sister's suggestion.
"Let's go to the hot spring!" Leng Qingxiang smiled mischievously and held her sister's hands. They walked side by side to the cobblestone path in front of them, which was covered in a thin layer of snow. After taking two or three steps, they heard someone calling them from behind. Leng Qingxiang stomped her feet impatiently and shouted,"Why is it them again? Why are they always following us?”As she spoke, she moved her eyes and whispered into Qiu Yihan's ear,""Sister, why don't I pull you along and we run!”
Qiu Yihan shook her head and smiled,""Qingxiang, don't be like this. The Left and Right Guardians might have something important to discuss with us!”As she spoke, she grabbed the fragrant lapel and stopped in her tracks. Qing Xiang glanced at her sister angrily and stopped in her tracks.
Slowly, two big men popped their heads out of the snow in the distance. One of them was wearing a black cloak and a bronze mask, while the other was wearing a red robe and holding a golden hammer. Their attire made people feel a chill down their spines. When they looked closely at their faces, they felt even more terrified. The man in the black cloak had a pair of cold eyes and a big green mouth on his bronze mask. His hair was messy. At first glance, it looked like a malicious ghost from the netherworld. This person was the "Green-faced Ghost" Zhang Ying, the current Left Guardian of the White Bone Cult. The other man in a red robe was the Right Protector of the White Bone Cult. His face was charred, and his thick eyebrows reached deep into his temples. His small eyes were full of killing intent, and he had a tall nose bridge and thick lips. There was a long scar on his chin, and his red hair was neatly tied into a bun. A white jade skull was tied on it. His Jianghu nickname was "Skull" Qiu Wudi. The two of them slowly walked to Qiu Yihan and her sister's side and said in unison,""Greetings to the two young ladies!"
Qiu Yihan smiled faintly." Please excuse me, Guardians. May I know what business you have with me?"”
Zhang Ying and Chou Wudi slowly raised their heads and said in unison,""Cult Master is looking for Eldest Miss!" Ever since the two of them followed Leng Feihu into the White Bone Cult and became the Left and Right Guardians of the cult, they had handled almost all the affairs together. Therefore, after decades, the two of them had an indescribable tacit understanding. Even their preferences had become the same.
"What can happen? Annoying!" Leng Qingxiang glared at the left and right guardians and muttered.
When Zhang Ying heard Qing Xiang's words, he shot her a sinister and cold gaze.""Second Miss, I'm not looking for you!" His voice was also very terrifying. It did not seem to come from his throat, but from his internal organs. However, his mouth was indeed moving, which inevitably increased his sense of terror. Leng Qingxiang was not frightened by his gaze. Instead, she made a face at him and continued to shout,"So annoying!" Then, he turned around and left. Qiu Yihan looked at her sister and shook her head helplessly. This was how her sister was. She had never been afraid of anyone in the sect. She was not even afraid of her fierce father.
"Guardians, do you know why the Cult Master is looking for Yihan?”Qiu Yihan had a smile on her face, but her heart was in a mess. She did not like her father because he was a member of the Demonic Sect that was condemned by the martial artists. In her daily life, she rarely got close to her father. Her father also rarely communicated with her sisters because he often cultivated in seclusion. Today, he suddenly asked the two Guardians to look for her, which made Qiu Yihan a little afraid. She did not know if her father wanted her to kill the martial artists again because every time her father looked for her, he would have a mission. He was not going to rob other people's money. Even though her kung fu was mediocre, she always succeeded with the help of the Left and Right Guardians. She had once tried to escape from being killed because of her poor kung fu, but she was scolded by her father every time. Moreover, he said that as his daughter, she had to learn to be cruel. Only by seeing other people's blood could she prove her strength. Therefore, Qiu Yihan was very afraid when she heard her father's call. She was afraid of seeing blood because every time she killed someone, she would have nightmares for a few nights.
Zhang Ying looked at Qiu Yihan and whispered,""Sect Master didn't say anything. Eldest Miss, hurry up and return with the two of us!”His eyes were cold, and so was his voice, causing Qiu Yihan's heart to turn cold,""Looks like we're going to see blood again!" She closed her eyes powerlessly. Without the ability to resist, she could only walk the path of blood paved by her father.
"Young miss, don't make the cult master impatient!”Chou Wudi suddenly shouted into Qiu Yihan's ear. Qiu Yihan quickly opened her eyes and said in horror,""Then let's go!" She did not have time to think about what her father wanted to do with her. She wanted to return to the White Bone Cult immediately. She did not want her father to get angry and lock her in the cold underground palace.
Qiu Yihan's mind was blank as she walked forward. She did not know what kind of test was waiting for her. The Left and Right Protectors quickly followed after her. They knew their Sect Leader's temper very well. If they were late, they would be punished.
