Volume 3: Lotus Regret (3)

Eight

"Disciple Shengqing, meet the three masters." In the Sanqing Temple, Ruoxuan looked solemn and bowed to the three figures sitting on the temple.

The three figures are naturally Yuqing Yuan Shi Tianzun, Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun, and Taiqing Daode Tianzun, commonly known as "Sanqing Venerable"

"Shengqing, are you willing to come back? The two old friends of the god and the demon you are talking about, can you find the news? Venerable Shangqing raised his eyes, and the distant and ethereal sound echoed in the main hall.

"There is no news yet, but I have brought back their only daughter. I came here this time to ask the three masters for advice, I want her to stay in the Sanqing Holy Realm for a while, and make her not go out of the 'Holy Qing Palace' for half a step, so as not to disturb the purity of the Holy Realm. ”

"Ever since you stepped into the Sanqing Holy Realm with that girl, your three masters have known it. You know that in the laws of heaven, intermarriage between gods and demons is a felony, why do you want to bring it back? That little girl, although she has the blood of the gods, but her root is still a lotus demon. ”

"Back to the master, the disciple is stupid, and Yu thinks that as long as he has a righteous heart and retains the awe of the natural laws of the Great Dao, there is no very difference between gods, humans, and demons, and they all belong to the vast number of beings in the three realms."

"The gods and demons have different paths, not to mention, the enemy who killed her father is your senior brother, Nianqing."

The senior brother personally led the heavenly soldiers to hunt down and kill the two old friends, so that now one person has fallen and one person is missing, for this matter, Ruoxuan still can't easily let go.

The folds stacked between Ruoxuan's eyebrows became more and more obvious. After a long silence, he finally let out a long sigh.

"Lian Xi is pure and good-natured, and the disciple will carefully guide her to the right path, and as for the revenge of killing her father, the disciple will explain to her in the future. Heaven has the virtue of good life, and all living beings are equal. Dao Wudo, don't arbitrarily decide her life and death just because she is a demon. ”

The conversation between master and apprentice instantly turned into a negotiation, for the daughter of an old friend, Ruoxuan did not give in even in the face of the three masters, and the huge hall fell into a strange dead silence.

Just when the atmosphere was tense, a little Taoist boy suddenly poked out his little head from behind the three masters.

"Senior Brother Shengqing! You're back! Nianci heard that you brought back a young lady, can you take Nianci to play with her?! Let's go, let's go! With that, he rushed out from behind the three masters, pulled the hem of Ruoxuan's clothes, and walked outside the door of the main hall without looking back.

Ruo Xuan didn't know that this clever and naughty little monster was here to relieve him, after all, it was his own master, and it was useless to argue rudely, so he just went down the steps.

"That disciple Shengqing, so he didn't disturb the purity of the three masters, and retired first." Ruoxuan hurriedly made a reason to retreat, and was dragged away by Xiao Nianci.

Seeing this, Venerable Sanqing all smiled bitterly and shook their heads. Xiao Nianci was already very spoiled, and Shengqing was the most gifted and the most talented disciple of Sanqing, so he couldn't embarrass the two too much, so he went with them.

"Shengqing is stable by nature, and there is a degree of advance and retreat, so there should be no chaos. This matter is up to him" Venerable Taiqing looked at Venerable Yuqing, the head of the Three Qings, who had never spoken, and excused his words.

Venerable Yuqing slowly opened his eyes, looking at the back of the door that was gradually moving away, he couldn't tell whether he was happy or angry in his eyes, and his tone was flat.

"Perhaps, this is the difference between him and me."

"Master, master, what is this flower called? A small circle of white flowers around the center wraps around this one with many small purple fruits in the middle, which is very beautiful. "Returning to the heavenly realm with Ruoxuan, Lian Xi ate enough to eat and drink and sleep enough every day, regained his vitality, and was in the Shengqing Hall at this moment, led by Xiao Nianci, full of curiosity everywhere to pick flowers and grass.

"Tianmu Qionghua."

"Oooh! Xi'er remembered, so what about this and this? There are so many little golden flowers on this tree! ”

"Gold and silver honeysuckle."

"What about this? This one grows in the water with purple flowers like birds. Xiao Nianci asked again.

"Flat bamboo iris."

......

Ruo Xuan sat in front of the bookcase in the pavilion holding "Spring and Autumn", patiently answering the questions of the two little ones.

"Okay, it's almost time, Xi'er, it's time to chant and cultivate. Xiao Nianci, go back to the master, you should also work the path. ”

"Oh~~~ Goodbye Sister Xi'er, Nianci will come to play with you again tomorrow." Xi'er was very well-behaved, and sat in front of Ruoxuan's book case at a trot, Xiao Nianci was a little unsatisfied, and after saying goodbye to Lian Xi, he left the "Shengqing Palace" in a gloomy manner.

Ruoxuan saw that Lian Xi was sitting still, so he opened his mouth and taught: "Xi'er read with me: the Tao is the way, the Tao is very Tao; The name is famous, and the name is not very famous. ”

"The Tao is the way, the very way; The name is famous, and the name is not very famous. ”

"This is the supreme principle in Master Taiqing's "Tao Te Ching", which explains the order and rules of the operation and change of all things in heaven and earth......"

The clouds are rolling and the clouds are shu, the flowers are blooming and falling, and the daily life of the lotus in the heavenly realm is to play with Xiao Nianci and practice the avenue with Ruoxuan, and he is also very well-behaved and obedient, and has never stepped out of the "Holy Qing Palace" for half a step.

Although during the time when Lian Xi first came, Shengqing brought a lotus demon back to the Sanqing Holy Realm and raised it in the private hall, which caused some criticism among the brothers and sisters, but because of Shengqing's respected status and humility on weekdays, these criticisms gradually subsided.

And Nianqing, the elder brother who killed Ruoxuan's old friend and Lianxi's biological father, has been hiding in the living room and not going out on the grounds of retreat and healing.

A year passed quietly in this secluded holy realm......

It was another afternoon, Ruoxuan taught Zhi'er to chant scriptures and cultivate the Tao as usual.

"Tai Chi gives birth to two instruments, two instruments give birth to four elephants, and four elephants give birth to gossip...... "Lian Xi held "Zhou Yi", and was about to read the content of Ruoxuan aloud, when a domineering divine power suddenly came from the air to interrupt it, and when he looked up, there was a sudden shock in his eyes.

I saw that the sky above the Sanqing Holy Realm was dyed red, and an incomparably huge fireball, with a rolling heat wave, like a meteorite falling from the sky, fell rapidly towards the Sanqing Holy Realm. If the fireball fell, the Sanqing Holy Realm was afraid that it would turn into ashes in a sea of fire.

"Bold! Who is coming? The Three Qing Holy Realms, how can it be allowed to make times! ”

In the Holy Realm, countless disciples and disciples rose into the air, wielding their own magic weapons, casting magical spells of different colors, towards the falling fireballs, and in an instant, the heavens and the earth were filled with radiant divine power.

It's just that although this heavenly supernatural power is huge and does not lose the fireball falling from the sky, the confrontation between the two collapsed in an instant, and it couldn't stop the fireball in the slightest. The divine power of the disciples of the Three Qing Sects in the sky was broken, and the qi was implicated, and they all fell to the ground with pale faces, and even those who were slightly weaker in cultivation passed out directly.

"Hahahaha! Overestimate one's strength or oneself! Pull aside, little minions! Holy Clear! Don't hide! Come out and fight me for 300 rounds! The incomparably arrogant and domineering laughter swept through the heavens and the earth, and he actually named and wanted to challenge the Holy Qing Venerable.

Ruoxuan's face was like an ancient well without waves, looking at the falling huge fireball and slowly getting up, the law moved with his heart, only to see that in the Shengqing Pool, the originally calm water surface suddenly rolled wildly as if it was boiling, and there were four huge water dragons breaking through the water one after another, winding towards the falling fireball.

I saw that the two supernatural powers collided violently, making a loud earth-shattering sound, the collision of fire and soft water, a huge cloud and mist erupted in the air, and the fireball and water dragon all dissipated without a trace.

"Hahahaha! Joyfully! Again! ”

Before everyone could rejoice, in the clouds and mist, a figure rushed out with a burst of sound explosions, only to see its figure eight feet, red hair and red eyebrows, strong waist, blazing eyes overflowing with murderous aura, wearing a purple and gold crown of feathers, wearing gold-rimmed chain mail, holding a dragon pattern mountain opening giant axe, wrapped in a strong and domineering majestic momentum, swaying towards Ruoxuan.

Ruo Xuan is not a combative person, but he has no choice but to fight, otherwise if this reckless man is allowed to come, I am afraid that the Sanqing Holy Realm will be turned upside down.

"Soldier Wine." Ruoxuan rose into the sky and faced the domineering offensive that was pressing in the air. The wine dew slowly flowed out of the sleeve, gradually condensing into a dark purple long sword that was more than three feet long, and there were flower vine lines spreading on the transparent sword body.

"The hosts! Remember to be careful! Lian Xi called urgently, her eyes full of worry. The two of them in the air had already fought together, one purple and one red, two lights and shadows staggered and shuttled in the clouds and mist, weapons clashed, and the sound of gold and iron clashing sounded like a torrential rain, and hundreds of rounds had been exchanged in an instant.

Before today, Lian Xi never knew that Ruoxuan, who had always been elegant and peaceful, had such a fierce side when he held a weapon in his hand.

Eleven

"Boom!"

The bright and crisp sound of gold and iron clash sounded again, and it was another round of fighting, and the two sides opened up some distance in the air. The burly and strong red-haired reckless man has gradually fallen into the upper hand in the hand.

"Xingtian! You horseman, stop it if you've had enough of it! Ruo Xuan stopped talking, obviously not wanting to accompany this reckless man to continue to mess around.

A touch of ruthlessness swept through the fierce eyebrows, and the red-haired reckless man didn't seem to want to delay any longer, slowly dancing in the air with a dragon-patterned battle axe, and his furious divine power soared into the sky, and bursts of heat swept through, obviously preparing to cast his final killing move.

Ruoxuan's eyebrows finally wrinkled, and he obviously had a big headache for dealing with this war-hungry reckless horseman. Then he waved his sleeves, and the wine dew once again swayed out of his sleeves, hanging in the air.

"Soldier Wine • Bacchus Bow." I saw that the wine dew and brilliance flowed, condensing into a transparent carved bow that was as tall as a person like ice jade, and there were still light purple vine patterns spreading on it.

Ruo Xuan held the bow in his left hand, put the string in his right hand, and pulled the carved bow into a full circle, and there was a purple light condensed between the bowstrings, gradually forming a brilliant crystal sharp arrow, on which the divine light was rippling, and the sharp meaning was almost condensed into substance, cutting through the air and sending out bursts of sharp arrows.

On the other side, the red-haired man danced his tomahawk faster and faster, rolling up bursts of afterimages, and the flames swept upward, gradually turning into the phantom of the flame dragon above it, and the strong killing intent made the heavens and the earth change color.

The divine power of the two sides was extremely condensed, trying to rely on the most fierce offensive to overwhelm each other's killing moves with supreme divine power.

Finally, when he reached the critical point, the red-haired reckless man took the lead, and thousands of afterimages dissipated, and the dragon-patterned battle axe stopped dancing, held high above the top, and swung forward. The dragon body circled, and the flame dragon shadow carried an extremely domineering majestic battle intent, roaring towards Ruoxuan.

The sharp arrow in Ruoxuan's hand then departed from the string, contrary to the fierce flame dragon shadow of the red-haired reckless man, the sharp qi of the sharp arrow from the string converged, spun rapidly, turned into a phantom, and shot silently towards the flame dragon shadow.

"Dragon Flame Burning the Sky!"

"Dionysian Arrow."

The majestic waves of qi swept into the sky, and the clouds and mist in the sky were instantly washed away, and the two divine powers killed each other in the air......
