Chapter 21: The Fairy Palace
On the mountain trail, Lu Ling followed the footsteps of Jiuye closely, he looked at the scene below the mountain, and couldn't help but be puzzled: almost all of them were plains within a radius of a hundred miles as far as the eye could see, which made this mountain peak that was neither tall nor low seem extremely abrupt, and under the mountain was the prosperous and lively Holy Spirit Heavenly Capital, but the mountain was quiet and quiet, and not even a single figure could be seen, and the contrast was a little weird.
"What the hell is this place?" he asked.
Jiu Ye glanced back at him and said, "This is the mountain behind the palace, and ordinary people are not allowed to approach it." Then she pointed to the foot of the mountain, where there were splendid palaces of pure white, brick by brick and tile, shining brightly in the sun.
Lu Ling opened his mouth wide, and it took a long time before he said in surprise: "Are you from the fairy spirit royal family?" This time, Jiu Ye looked at him with a puzzled expression: "Huh, haven't I told you before?" After Lu Ling shook her head, she smiled and said, "It's not too late to know now." ”
Lu Ling couldn't help but sigh a little when he heard this, his source demon qi had actually attracted the royal power of the two super clans, the Blood Demon and the Immortal Spirit, just thinking about it made him feel a little dreamlike.
Dozens of minutes later, the two finally arrived at the foot of the mountain, and saw those splendid palaces up close, and the sacred and solemn immortal aura made Lu Ling, who was a demon spirit, feel an inexplicable sense of oppression.
Looking at Lu Ling, who was acting cautiously, Jiu Ye pursed his lips and snickered, "You don't have to be so nervous. After speaking, he stretched out his jade hand and took his palm, and walked quickly towards the depths of the palace.
Holding the girl's cold and soft little hand made Lu Ling feel a lot more at ease, but he still felt uncomfortable, from the moment he entered the palace, he felt that there were countless eyes observing him from the dark, but every time he looked around, he found that there was no one.
Once again, he felt a cold gaze sweeping over his body, and he couldn't help but whisper, "Is there someone watching us somewhere?"
Jiuye said: "Those are the elders and officials in the palace, they are very curious when they hear that you are coming, but don't worry, they have no malicious intentions. ”
Lu Ling nodded: "Could it be that the people of the Immortal Spirit Royal Family already know me?"
"Of course not, what they are curious about is just the source demonic qi. ”
After hearing the girl's answer, Lu Ling pouted and rolled his eyes.
As they spoke, a pool of clear and beautiful lakes caught their eyes, and a beautifully designed white pavilion by the lake was particularly eye-catching. Compared with the palace with a calm atmosphere, the environment here made Lu Ling a lot more relaxed.
However, he soon noticed that a man in white was staring at him intently in the small pavilion. I have to say that this person must be the most distinctive person Lu Ling has ever seen, in addition to the color of his clothes and hair from head to toe, all of them are white, and the man's slightly squinted blue eyes also look very mysterious.
"Immortal Elder, I brought him here. Jiu Ye pulled Lu Ling towards the man known as "Immortal Elder", who stared at Lu Ling closely, his blue pupils flashing with imperceptible white light.
In the next moment, Lu Ling only felt a tremor all over his body, he looked at the man in white in shock, and unconsciously took a step back.
Although his whole body trembled, Lu Ling did not feel any fear or timidity, and after careful investigation, he was surprised to find that the demonic qi that was flowing in his body suddenly began to boil like a convulsion, as if it was constantly conveying a message to him: stay away from this person!
"You still hate me as always. Immortal Lao said suddenly. Lu Ling forcibly suppressed the riot of demonic qi in his body, and hurriedly showed an embarrassed but polite smile and saluted and asked, "Lu Ling has seen his predecessors, but what is going on...... this?"
Immortal Lao smiled: "Source Demon Qi has always rejected my strength, you don't have to care. ”
"The power of the seniors?" Lu Ling was a little puzzled, the immortal elder lowered his eyes and said softly: "I didn't expect the Blood Demon Clan to attack you so quickly, and I couldn't save your younger brother, but this time my Immortal Clan couldn't protect you well." ”
Jiu Ye, who was standing aside, also looked at Lu Ling apologetically.
A look of loss flashed in his eyes, and Lu Ling pursed his lips: "No, the seniors and Sister Jiuye saved the lives of the juniors, which has already made the juniors grateful."
The immortal elder bowed his head and said, "From today on, you will stay in this palace, and the royal family will provide you with all the help, and you will be safe here." ”
Lu Ling was about to speak, but was about to speak but was interrupted by Immortal Elder: "In addition, you should already know the importance of demonic qi, in order to protect yourself and the entire demonic spirit clan behind you, you must let the power of demonic qi grow as soon as possible." ”
His life affected the fate of the entire Demon Spirit Clan, which Lu Ling himself knew very well, so he nodded seriously: "I understand." ”
The immortal elder was silent for a moment, and then stretched out his palm, the white light flashed in the palm of his hand, turning into a blue spar the size of a thumb, he stared at this small and delicate angular spar, and a trace of imperceptible melancholy flashed in his eyes.
He sighed lightly, spread out his palm, and the kyanite floated leisurely in front of Lu Ling, who gently held the spar in his hand with a question: "What is this?"
"This is the ancient book that the Demon Spirit Clan lost to my clan back then, and I have kept them for five hundred years, and now I will return them to you. Immortal Lao said.
"But......" Lu Ling's heart stirred, he could see the reluctance in the eyes of the immortal elder, besides, these ancient books of the demon spirit clan must be quite precious, but the immortal elder did not hesitate to return them to him.
The immortal old man waved his hand: "Although these ancient books are precious, they have no effect on the immortals, and in order to prevent them from falling into the hands of thieves, the black devil has already set a seal on them, and only the source demon qi can break the seal, so they originally belonged to you, and I just did it to return to the original owner." ”
"These ancient books contain records of the demonic qi cultivation methods left behind by the source demon bodies of the past dynasties, and they are of vital importance to you. ”
Hearing this, Lu Ling took a light breath, his eyes stared at the spar in his hand fiery, at that time, Elder Huatong told him that if he wanted to know the method of cultivating demonic qi, he had to go to the Immortal Spirit Clan to find the ancient books left by the Black Demon Patriarch.
And now, before he went to look for it, these ancient books were delivered to the door by himself.
The current Lu Ling really urgently needed these things, so he was no longer hypocritical, and bowed sincerely to the immortal old man with gratitude: "Thank you seniors." ”
"So be it. The fairy elder said disapprerovingly, "During this time, Jiuye will stay in the palace, and if you have any questions, she will help you answer them." ”
Lu Ling was about to answer, a dazzling white light suddenly appeared on the immortal elder's body, and by the time Lu Ling blinked and recovered his eyesight, the figure of the immortal elder had already disappeared.
He sighed helplessly, these masters really came and went without a trace.
"Hee-hee, do you have any other questions? Seeing Lu Ling's preoccupied look, Jiuye said with a smile.
Lu Ling smiled bitterly, and after hesitation, he said, "I just don't know why the Immortal Spirit Clan wants to help me so much." ”
The Immortal Spirit Clan saved his life, and returned the precious ancient Demon Spirit Book to him without reservation, and according to the Immortal Elder, the Immortal Spirit Clan would also provide all kinds of help for his cultivation.
But they didn't ask for anything in return, although the current Lu Ling didn't have the ability to repay the Immortal Spirit Clan, he was always uneasy.
Because he knows very well that pie will not fall from the sky.
Jiuye could also see the worry in his heart, she sat on the stone chair in the small pavilion and said, " In fact, the fairy spirit clan also has its own purpose, the current hundred spirit world is not peaceful, five hundred years ago, the demon shadow clan suddenly launched a war, countless living beings were destroyed in the war, even the powerful race of the demon spirit clan can not escape the fate of extinction, although we finally won the war between heaven and earth, but they may soon make a comeback, in order to avoid following in the footsteps of the demon spirit clan, the fairy spirit clan needs you to grow up and use the power of the source demon qi to resist the upcoming war. ”
"So, the fairy clan is actually helping you too, but you don't have to worry too much, the royal family doesn't mean to use you, the fairy and demon clans are the closest alliance at any time. ”
Lu Ling nodded thoughtfully, he looked down at the blue spar in his hand, the Black Demon Patriarch handed over the important secret methods and ancient books of the Demon Spirit Clan to the Immortal Elder for a full five hundred years, this alone was enough to see his trust in the Immortal Spirit Clan.
So he breathed a long sigh of relief and smiled, "Well, I trust you. ”
When Jiu Ye heard this, a smile appeared on his pretty face, and Lu Ling couldn't help but look at it twice more with that sweet and lovely appearance, he looked away in embarrassment, and muttered, "Sister Jiu Ye, you shouldn't be the princess of the fairy spirit royal family, right?"
Those who can come and go freely in this huge palace must not have a low status, right?
After Jiu Ye heard Lu Ling's ridiculous words, a faint flush appeared on his little face: "How is it possible! I'm just a small officer." ”
Lu Ling laughed, he hadn't forgotten that Xue Qingfeng was above the Immortal Demon Heavenly Stream, but he called Jiu Ye "General Jiu".
"Speaking of which, there should be a lot of powerful characters in the Immortal Spirit Clan, right?
"Of course," Jiu Ye said proudly, "our royal family is full of talents, and even if the Demon Shadow Clan attacks now, it may not be able to take advantage of much." ”
"What about someone with the strength of Xue Qingfeng?" At the mention of that name, Lu Ling couldn't help but clench his fists, and hatred grew.
Jiu Ye thought for a moment and said, "There are four young generals in the royal family whose strength is not weaker than Xue Qingfeng, and there may be other masters with hidden strength. ”
"Four?" Lu Ling was shocked, Xue Qingfeng was the strongest person among the younger generation he had ever seen, but there were at least four people in this fairy royal family who could match it.
It's really a super family standing at the top of the world.
"Those four people are collectively known as the 'Four Dragon Generals of the Royal Family', which can be said to be the benchmark for the younger generation of the entire Immortal Spirit Domain. "And one of them is my immediate boss." ”
"Huh?" Lu Ling glanced at her curiously, it should be a very proud thing to be able to work under such a powerful person, but Jiu Ye's tone was angry, and even a little resentful.
"That's a nasty guy. Jiu Ye snorted, and then said, "Don't talk about him, you are new to the Holy Spirit Heavenly Capital, let me take you for a walk." ”
"It's better to say goodbye...... Lu Ling looked embarrassed, he was not in the mood to do these things now, but at the strong request of the girl, he was finally dragged out of the palace.
“...... By the way, the fairy elder gave me a two-month leave, if you are bored, you can come to me to play, and I can teach you some spells of the fairy clan. ”
"Oh. ”
"If that guy knows, he will definitely be envious and jealous! ”
“......”
With the melodious laughter of silver bells, the girl's steps seemed to become brisk.
