Ni Yuan, on the shore of Crescent Lake.

Soon the whole city of Anxing set out to find the whereabouts of Xijing, and with Holma staying in Qixi Pavilion, I was relieved to do what I wanted to do, the crescent moon lake outside Niyuan, this is the purpose of my real coming to Anxing.

Crescent Lake is located in the Crescent Valley twenty miles away from the Niyuan King City, the scenery here is very beautiful, in the middle of the Crescent Lake, there is a snow cherry tree hanging on the surface of the lake, Holma once told me, that tree is the entrance to the Nanxi world, if you want to enter the Nanxi world, you just need to dive into the bottom of the lake from the location of the snow cherry tree.

I rushed straight into the bottom of the lake from a high altitude, the water was very clear, and in order not to get my clothes wet, I created a barrier around myself, but as soon as my body touched the water, I felt like I had entered a fantasy world, and with a flash of bright sun, I was greeted by a different scene.

In front of me is a small town, the people here are almost still living in the primitive era, looking around, you can't see any prosperous scenes, everyone is dressed very plainly, my first feeling is whether I have come to the wrong place, "Is this Nanxi?" I wondered.

My arrival attracted a lot of locals, and a toddler saw the ornament on my clothes and reached out curiously to grab it.

"You're from the Thousand Spirits?" A sweet voice asked, and I followed the sound to see a girl with a beautiful eyebrow standing beside me, with a round crimson face, long hair, a plain dress, and a sachet pinned to her waist, which was the familiar scent of snow cherry blossoms.

"My name is Angel, and I'm from Niyuan King City." I smiled and said, "This is Nanxi World?" ”

"That's right, this is Nanxi World." The girl replied in the affirmative.

Looking around, this is completely different from the Nanxi I imagined, if this is Nanxi, then where did these people come from, seeing my questioning face, the girl "giggled" and laughed: "Everyone who comes to Nanxi for the first time feels that they have gone to the wrong place like you, maybe in the eyes of everyone, Nanxi World is a mysterious place." ”

I laughed a little embarrassedly, "The girl is really amazing, and she actually said what I thought in my heart!" ”

The girl chuckled and said, "Most of the people who come here are here to exchange things with the Snow Blossom Elves, the King of the Thousand Shadows just came yesterday, and today the King of the Thousand Spirits Clan is going to exchange something?" ”

Hearing the girl's words, I was taken aback, she actually said my identity directly, I couldn't help but be cautious, "Dare to ask the girl is Fang's name?" Why do I know my identity? ”

The girl smiled slightly, "I am the reception messenger of the Nanxi World, you can call me Qingxin, half an hour ago, the Snow Sakura Elf has already informed me in advance of the news that you will come, so you don't have to be surprised why I know your identity." ”

Half an hour ago? I paused, at that time, I was treating Queen Xinlan with Holma in the Zhaoyang Palace, and I didn't mention to anyone about coming to the Nanxi World at all, and the Snow Sakura Elf actually knew my next move at that time.

"King Xingcan, if you don't mind, go to my house to rest first, the Snow Sakura Elf will naturally appear when she wants to see you." Qingxin said, after that, she took me to a thatched hut at the end of the road, this is Qingxin's home in Nanxi, the thatched hut is not big, there are two flower beds around, planted with all kinds of flowers I don't know what to call, outside the window of the thatched hut, there is a sword hanging, the hilt of the sword has become very smooth because of the long friction.

An old man was sweeping the floor in the open space behind the hut, he was dressed in a slender but rough suit, his hair was gray, he looked like he had not been groomed for a long time, and his beard was very long, and he was almost full of arms.

"There are only two people in the family, my grandfather Xuefeng is a swordsman, and I am a child adopted by him." Qingxin invited me into the house, which was simply furnished, with only two rooms, one with two beds, the other with a set of old tables and chairs, and a corner of the room with food they had grown themselves.

"Girl, did you grow up in Nanxi?" I asked curiously.

Qingxin shook his head and said: "I was picked up by my grandfather from the crescent moon lake when I was 7 years old, I have no memory of the things when I was a child, grandpa said that he used to be a prince of Anxing, and he was also Prince Xichen's swordsmanship teacher, and then retired to Nanxi for some reason," Qingxin said as he handed me a glass of water, the water exuded a faint fragrance of snow cherry blossoms, "This is tea made with snow cherry blossom petals, you try it!" ”

I took the glass and took a sip, although I have lived under the snow cherry tree since I was a child, but for the snow cherry blossom tea, it is the first time I have tasted it, the taste of the tea is very light, but it exudes a unique fragrance, for some reason, I always feel that this taste is very familiar.

Qingxin quickly brought the old man in, and this time, I could see his face clearly, the old man's complexion was bronzed, his face was full of wrinkles, his eyes were deeply sunk into their sockets, and he estimated that he was at least one hundred and sixty years old.

Facing such an elder, I took the initiative to greet him, "Qingxin said that you used to be Xichen's swordsmanship teacher, and I happened to live in Qixi Pavilion in the past two days. ”

The old man sat down on the old chair in front of the table, and then casually picked up the remaining half of the glass of green wine on the table and drank it down, "Speaking of Xichen, I haven't seen him for a long time. The old man said in a hoarse voice, "How is he now?" ”

"He's a little injured, but he's no longer in his eyes." I say.

"Hurt? Isn't his cultivation the highest in An Xing? How could anyone hurt him? The old man asked indifferently, he didn't seem to be worried about Xichen's injury at all.

"The opponent pretended to be Xijing's identity and hurt him, the other party's cultivation is too much higher than Xichen, Xichen is not his opponent!" I continued.

Hearing that Xijing's identity was impersonated, the old man swooped up from his chair, "What did you say?" Someone pretending to be Xijing? What about Xijing? How is he doing now? ”

The old man's overreaction surprised me a little, no matter what, and aside from the teacher-student relationship between Xichen and him, Xichen, as the only heir to the throne of Anxing, and has the pure bloodline of the Anxing royal family, the old man, as the prince of Anxing, shouldn't he care more about him, right?

I told the old man about what happened in the Qixi Pavilion in the early morning, and during the whole process, the old man wanted to speak several times, which made me a little more interested in the relationship between him and Xijing. Through his memory, I was surprised to discover the truth about the life history of the two Anxing princes, it turned out that the person who really had the blood of the Anxing royal family was Xijing, not Xichen.

……

Half a day after coming to Nanxi, I didn't see the figure of the Snow Cherry Elves, I thought they didn't want to see me, and when I was about to leave, a voice suddenly came from outside the grass house, "Did King Xingcan ever think about staying here?" ”

Following the sound and walking out, I saw the toddler child, the words just now came from his mouth, I was stunned at first, and then laughed, this toddler in front of me is none other than the snow cherry elf I am looking for. "It turns out that the first person I came into contact with when I first arrived in Nanxi was you!" I say.

At this time, Old Man Snow Wind and Qingxin also walked out of the house, and they bowed respectfully to the Snow Sakura Elf before leaving, and the people had been brought here, and their task was completed.

The young boy withdrew the disguise technique, and instantly turned into a personable man, his skin was fair, and his delicate facial features revealed a touch of handsomeness, "If you have any questions, just ask, I'll only give you three minutes!" The other party said lightly.

"I want to know, did you deliberately leave the snow cherry tree outside my dormitory, so that you could spy on me like Mengxi?"

"Surveillance doesn't count, haven't you noticed that you've always had an inseparable relationship with Snow Sakura? Your blood blends with the snow cherry blossoms, in addition to bringing dead flowers and plants back to life, it can also cure all the poisons in the world! I'm afraid you haven't even noticed this yourself! Ever since you have cultivated to reach the Super Holy Spirit, every time you break through in your cultivation, the snow cherry blossoms will turn red. ”

"Why is that, is it because of this heart-shaped mark on my chest?" I hurriedly asked, "Can you tell me how much cultivation is hidden in this mark?" ”

The Snow Sakura Elf smiled lightly and said, "I'm not in a hurry to tell you this, when your cultivation recovers to a certain level, we will make it clear to you." ”

I was stunned again, for my cultivation, the Snow Sakura Elf actually used the word "recovery", "Why is my cultivation not advanced, or breakthrough, but what you said...... Recover?? I asked, puzzled.

The Snow Sakura Elf did not answer my question directly, but said: "If you have any wishes that you want to realize in the future, you can come to us at any time, the door of the Nanxi World will always be open to you!" ”

I smiled lightly, "Thank you for your kindness, but I have nothing to trade with you, Mengxi is already a precedent, for the sake of cultivation, she has lost the most precious thing!" ”

"Don't you want to get your star back?" The Snow Sakura Elf snorted coldly.

The other party's words suddenly reminded me, after five years, I still haven't found Xingge's whereabouts, seeing that I was silent, the snow cherry elf raised his hand and threw me a ball of light in the air, and then said lightly: "Three minutes have arrived, our conversation today is here for this reason, the first time we meet, I will give you two meeting gifts, one is the spiritual power of the tenth-level super holy spirit cultivation, and the other is the whereabouts of Xingge." ”

The spiritual power released by the light cluster has long prevented me from making a sound, and that powerful energy is hitting my heart.

The voice of the Snow Cherry Elf was still in his ears, "The King of the Thousand Shadows Clan came to us yesterday, he exchanged a hundred years of lifespan for the cultivation of the full-level super Holy Spirit, in order not to let you lose too badly in the Boer Roman Competition, we had to give you the same cultivation, as for whether your heart can withstand the pressure of spiritual power across the third level in a row, it depends on your personal creation, in addition, Xingge was thrown into the Netherworld Canyon by the Thousand Shadows Clan a year and a half ago, even if it is Mengxi, it is estimated that it will be difficult to survive in that kind of ghost place!" ”

I endured the intense cramping of my heart and asked with difficulty, "Nether Canyon?" What is that place? ”

The Snow Sakura Elf didn't say anything more, he just smiled at me faintly, and then disappeared without a trace.

My consciousness began to blur, and before I fell unconscious, I only remembered that the snow and cherry blossoms around Nanxi had turned red.
