Chapter Ninety-Six: Going Down the Mountain
Northern Regions, Taihua Mountain, Yuxu Forest.
"Presumptuous! Qi Yan actually did such a thing. ”
Looking at the angry Twilight Zhaoming, Li Ran calmed down a little, and the day before yesterday, Gongsun Ling personally sent Zixi's body back, saying that he didn't notice it for a while, and he didn't realize that the rebellion that escaped from Taihua was hidden in Mirage City. Originally, Li Ran thought that this matter had nothing to do with Gongsun Ling, but now in the past few days, there have been disciples suffering outside the Mirage City, and they have all been sucked up the true yuan and died, exactly the same as Zixi's death.
Twilight Zhaoming reproached: "On that day, I should have killed him and left no trouble." ”
"Ah Yan is the only disciple of Lord Shizun alive, and you will not be able to do it, junior sister. ”
Senior sister, Twilight Zhaoming looked up, he hadn't called himself that for many years.
"I originally thought that Qi Yan would be unable to recover from the injuries he suffered in the Extinction Realm for several years, so I allowed the disciples in the sect to go down the mountain to chase and escape, but I didn't expect him to be so ruthless, I hurt the disciples. ”
"It's their responsibility to maintain Taihua, so don't blame yourself more. ”
"Senior brother, now hurry up and call all the disciples back. ”
"Hmm, what about Qi Yan?"
"Today we are going to Mirage together. ”
Li Ran gathered qi in his hands and said, "Your internal injuries have not healed before, let me breathe for you first." ”
"No need, senior brother, you should know that even if you use up all your true yuan, it will be difficult to heal, my own life, I know it myself. ”
Li Ran took his movements, his expression was indifferent, and he couldn't see what he was thinking.
"Senior brother, you go and call back the disciple first, I will go to the mountain gate in an hour. ”
After Li Ran left, Twilight Zhaoming arrived alone in the Taihua Secret Realm, and the statue of the phoenix had been destroyed by Qi Yan, leaving a bamboo forest empty. With the light breeze in the realm, there was a sparse sound at the edge of the forest, and Twilight Zhaoming walked to the end of the bamboo forest, slowly knelt down and bowed to the sky.
"Shizun, I'm sorry that Zhaoming failed to keep his promise to you and failed to fulfill the promise he made to you. ”
Decades ago, Huang Xuan saw Qi Yan's life star from the star wheel, although its light has always been brilliant and dazzling, but it is the 'broken army' life of the main disaster, I am afraid that one day it will eventually harm the world, it is because of some Phoenix Annihilation that he has been with him to teach in person.
"I know very well that as long as you are by his side for a day, he will be stable for a day, but it's a pity ......"
Twilight Zhaoming couldn't help but think back to the previous point, when the gate of the destruction realm shook, knowing that it was no longer the place where the phoenix was extinguished, she could only make up for it with her body, and she still closed the realm gate with her own hands, and it was because of this that she was injured by the nightmare qi, and she has not been able to recover until now.
"Don't worry, no matter what, I won't let him open the Destruction Realm, and I will defend your thoughts. ”
The woman looked at the unchanging sky, her eyes rippled slightly, and there seemed to be hidden tears, but suddenly she returned to calm. A hundred years have passed, and in this Taihua full door, what she wants is always hidden deepest, but it is also the most firmly rooted.
"But now I have no choice but to say goodbye, I will end his life," Twilight Zhaoming looked at the sky, suddenly showing helplessness and confusion that he had never felt before, "World-honored one, what would you do if it were you? Did you hear that? Zhaoming is now confused, can you tell me what is right? Is it true that the Mandate of Heaven is never wrong? Is it true that what you say will be fulfilled? Aren't all your previous efforts in vain?"
There was no change in the bamboo forest, and the woman sat down, as if she understood something. Huang Xuan had already handed everything over to her when he left, and the door of the Annihilation Realm had been closed, even if he was hoarse, the person couldn't feel half of it. She stood up, already having a decision in her mind.
In front of the mountain gate, three people were already waiting.
Twilight Zhaoming was taken aback, "Ning Chen, Qingyi, why are you here?"
The two immediately knelt down and bowed: "The disciple is willing to go with the master." ”
She glanced at Li Ran, and the man stood with his hands in his hands, as if he had already agreed.
"What are you two going to do?"
Ning Chen: "This matter is related to Taihua Manmen, and the disciple was guarding in the Taihua Secret Realm before, and now Qi Yan is out of the way to blame the murderous disciple, if he can't bring Qi Yan back, the disciple can only apologize with death." ”
Ning Chen, this kid is upright, and he will have some truth in what he says.
"Ning Chen can go, light clothes, you stay in the door. ”
"Boss ......"
"After we leave, Taihua will be empty, and now you are a big disciple of the teaching, but you rashly go down the mountain, if there is a change in the door, what should we do?"
Zhao Qingyi couldn't come back, she knew that she was responsible, but now that Ning Chen was blind, how could she rest assured?
"You can stay in the door, and we'll take care of the rest. Li Ran patted Zhao Qingyi's shoulders, pulled Ning Chen up, and walked to Twilight Zhaoming's side together.
Su Jue gave her instructions to complete it, and in just three days, seven Taihua disciples were killed, I don't know if Su Jue was still satisfied with this result. Meng Qingque's injuries had recovered a bit, and he was still able to get out of bed and walk a few steps. After Su Lingxi told him about Taihua's disciples, Meng Qingque was very calm, neither looking for death nor making a big noise.
"Qingque, it's not your fault. ”
"They were all killed near Mirage?"
"Not bad. ”
The young man sneered: "He hasn't even left Mirage City yet, he's really extremely confident." ”
"It's not safe here, it's better for you to go back to Taihua Mountain as soon as possible." ”
"Okay, I'll go back today. ”
Su Lingxi was taken aback, this person was so obedient?
"You can't Edgeworth now, I'll send you back. ”
"No need, haven't you always wanted to see Su Jue? He is now in King Ning's Mansion, you should go and see him. ”
The woman's eyes lowered to hide her weakness, and said, "No hurry." ”
"Are you pitying me? Or do you already know Su Jue's whereabouts?" Before going down the mountain, Su Lingxi reminded him that Su Jue was in Mirage City, and after arriving in Mirage City, he was inexplicably arrested and released, and Qi Yan's location was also told by Su Jue. All this is too strange and coincidental, since he sent Su Jue to Su Lingxi's side, everything has begun to change, these days lying on the bed Meng Qingque can't help but wonder, is this related to Su Lingxi?
"Lingxi, there's a question I've wanted to ask for a long time," the young man raised his eyes and stared at this person, and said, "Why did you go to Taihua Mountain? Why did you suddenly appear in Mirage City? Why did Su Jue lose his memory? Can you tell me what is the connection between all this!"
The woman was slightly shocked, this day would have come sooner, even if Meng Qingque made a big mistake in Yucheng, it would be inappropriate for him to use and play with him like this. What's more, thinking about it all the way, what she did was to make Meng Qingque hurt Taihua all over the world.
"It was Ah Jue who informed me to go to the Pei family's courtyard, and he summoned me to say that you will go to look for Qi Yan that night, and he is now trapped in the Ning Wangfu and can't move, so let me go and see it in case of accidents. It's just that I didn't expect that I still couldn't save your junior brother. As for why you said why I went to Taihua Mountain, I can only say, but instinctively. Whether you believe it or not, I'm going for you, not for Su Jue. ”
Did Ah Jue ask her to come to the rescue?
Looking at the woman's expression, Meng Qingque's tone also softened a little, "Lingxi, don't get me wrong, too many things have happened recently, I'm a little messy, I'm ...... You just treat me as incoherent, I'm talking nonsense, I'm ......"
Before he could finish speaking, Su Lingxi took him in his arms, and the person in his arms trembled, but then he couldn't help but sob.
"It doesn't matter. ”
"Lingxi?"
"Jue, and you, you are all the same in my heart. ”
Meng Qingque suddenly raised his head, only revealing tears on his face, "What did you say?"
"You two are my most important people, and I will never leave you because of Jue. ”
Yes, Su Lingxi would never turn his back on Meng Qingque because of Su Jue, and could only choose to conceal and deceive again and again for that person. If there is really karma, when that day comes, she will have to bear it with this person.
Mirage, no slope.
The Pei family's annex was in a mess, obviously the building was empty, and after some investigation, he found the residual breath of Qi Yan.
"It seems that he forced his luck and must have been delirious at the time of the incident. ”
"That is, he has already entered the devil?"
Obviously, he had a conclusion, but Li Ran still had room for it, and said: "It's not certain yet, we have to find someone first." ”
"Who owns this annex?"
"The Pei family was seized after the decline, and it should be owned by the royal family. ”
"The one who arranged Qi Yan here has something to do with the Xiao family?"
"Li Ran, Senior Brother Chongjin had some friendship with King Ning, what about you and King Ning?"
"But nodding is not a friendship. ”
"Ning Chen, you immediately prepare a post and go to King Ning's Mansion to meet you. ”
"Yes. ”
Ning Wangfu, when he heard this, the figure of the woman in purple appeared in Ning Chen's mind again, Yi Yunyin, she seemed to be called this name, maybe she could see her again when she went to Ning Wangfu this time.
Gongsun Ling had known that the people of Taihua would come, but he didn't expect that the head of the retreat, Du Zhaoming, who had been in retreat for decades, would appear. He sat in the hall, surrounded by Su Jue and Yue Qianlong, and the two of them didn't know who was visiting, just as an ordinary discussion. But when the two of them walked into the house, only Yue Qianlong showed a look of surprise.
"Uncle?"
Twilight Zhaoming hadn't seen them before, but Li Ran replied, "Su Jue, Yue Qianlong, it turns out that the two of you have been here all along. ”
With King Ning's northern land guarding, it's no wonder that I haven't been able to find news of them.
"What do you think of the three rebels who took in Taihua Mountain?"
"The head is serious, this king did accept Su Jue and Yue Qianlong in the mansion, but why Qi Yan is in the Pei family annex, this king does not know. ”
"Qi Yan was rescued from Taihua by the two of them, as for why he is in the Pei family, how can the prince not know?
"Although the Pei family has been recovered, it has long been abandoned and no one has gone anymore, an empty house outside the city, if Qi Yan happens to find it to hide, can this king detect it?"
Li Ran rushed to Twilight Zhaoming and gave a look, saying this, it seems that it is inseparable from Qi Yan.
