The path on Wuwang Peak was dangerous, especially the narrow section covered in slippery slopes near a cliff. One could easily fall and get seriously hurt. There were thick cypress trees growing on the steep cliff, blocking the view and making it harder to walk.
Pei Jing lifted the branches with his hand and crawled through. He looked around and said, “When I came here before, the path wasn’t this difficult. How long has it been since someone came?”

Wu Sheng used his staff to check the path and smiled, “There aren’t many idle people around here, after all.”
Pei Jing quickly understood and looked at the group of nervous young people ahead. He laughed, realizing belatedly, “They must be quite idle.”
Most of the young people were at the Foundation Establishment Stage, just starting to learn sword control. Flying in the air was still a distant skill, as falling would be extremely dangerous.
They looked tense and careful, taking each step with caution. But the mountain path was tricky, and someone accidentally missed a turn, crashing into a cypress tree between the cliffs. They lost their footing and fell straight down.
The young person let out a desperate and terrified scream.
The people ahead turned back, eyes wide open, and shouted his name but didn’t know what to do.
Pei Jing was behind and shook his head with a smile, “Troublesome.”
He waved his sleeves, and the flower leaves solidified into a rope, transforming into a dragon that quickly rushed down, wrapping around the waist of the falling youth and pulling him up from the edge of danger. The young man returned to the path, but his legs felt weak, and he knelt down.
The rest of the onlookers were stunned, looking up in amazement at the two youths emerging from the clouds.
One wore a golden-white monk’s robe with a cloth covering his eyes. The other wore a gray-brown cold garment with a grass rope tying his hair. The former appeared kind and gentle, while the latter was carefree and bright.
The young men were shocked, with a name on the tip of their tongues, but they couldn’t believe it.
Wu Sheng, being a monk, stepped forward and extended his slender hand to help the young man sitting on the ground. He spoke softly, “Wuwang Peak was once a dangerous place, and it’s still haunted. You’re only at the Foundation Establishment Stage. It’s risky to stay here. Don’t go any further. Descend the mountain.”
The young man on the ground was terrified, his face smeared with tears and snot. “Thank you, thank you, kind person. Thank you for saving my life.”
The other young men stood still, stunned and unable to speak.
The sound of wind and clouds served as the background. After hesitating for a while, the leader gathered courage and asked, “Who are the two esteemed Seniors?” Although they had suspicions, they didn’t dare to conclude. People like that could bring unexpected encounters.
Pei Jing released her grip on the flower leaves, smiled, and said, “Stop thinking. We’re not the two people you’re thinking of.”
The young man stood awkwardly in place, “Uh.”
