Chapter 8: Secrets (3)
Qiao Xuebin froze, froze in place, motionless.
Sen Qian immediately understood the meaning of the egret's words. And Sen Dao, in fact, even he didn't know that Qiao Xuebin had such an amazing life experience, and he was really stunned. He Yue and the others on the side were dumbfounded. He Yue was dumbfounded, this... It was too much more than she could have imagined. She imagined that Qiao Xuebin, who was in Qiao's Mansion, had a body of cultivation, and his story must be extraordinary. It's just that... Who would have thought that there would be a dignified Heavenly Realm Immortal Official, who entrusted his fate to the Dao Immortal Realm before he was born.
He suddenly hugged his head, his expression struggling. Egret Michiko gently held him and sat on the damp grass in the valley.
"That's a good thing, that's a good thing. When you reach the late stage of cultivation, you will be able to see part of your experience in your previous life. In your previous life, you were a person from the immortal realm..."
"It's really surprising. However, I guess the reason why Fairy Zhuge said this is to tell us that we can use this child to summon the governor of the upper realm, is that what I mean?"
Sen Qian is worthy of being an old monster that has lived for 800 years, and his ability to accept it is extremely powerful. was slightly surprised, and continued to say the meaning of the egret Daozi directly. Bailu Daozi, who comforted Qiao Xuebin, nodded slowly.
"Well, thank you fairy for making such a sacrifice. It is suggested that you can temporarily take out a part of the natal essence blood in Xuebin Dantian to attract the attention of the Upper Realm Governor on Tongxian Mountain. If the meaning of this child is important enough, someone will definitely come down to see it. However, if you summon the governor in this way, maybe he will be angry, so Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·"
"Shut up. Egret Daozi raised his godless eyes and said coldly to Sen Qian, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense. When Sen Qianyan heard this, he spread his hands, but he just smiled.
"Xuebin, you heard what he just said. Now this is the only way to get the Governor to show up. Your master is seriously ill, and we all want to talk to Yumeya as soon as possible. And his illness was also caused by the matter of divination dream clan, maybe he didn't expect the other party to start large-scale activities, and he was in a hurry... Therefore, it is best to be able to resolve the dispute in the Dream Palace Dao Realm once and for all..."
Qiao Xuebin, who was in her arms, nodded weakly, but she didn't know what to say at this time. After learning the news just now, he was really in a lot of mood, and somehow felt a deep loneliness and pain. He desperately didn't want to go back to Qiao's house after today.
The dearest uncle saw through his thoughts, and she knew that Qiao Xuebin wanted to know a lot now, and wanted to figure out a lot. Bailu Daozi sighed and said, "After today's end, Uncle Shi will go and tell your old man that you will go to the Dao Realm to live for a month." β
Qiao Xuebin spoke slowly, "Grandpa... Grandpa was critically ill and went to the capital for treatment... Now..."
Sen Dao suddenly spoke, interrupting him, "I'll go, I'll talk to the kid Liangyan." β
As soon as these words came out, Sen Qian suddenly showed a strange smile, he walked up to Sen Dao, stared at him for a while, and shook his head.
"Little brother, that's true. Now what the old man wants to say is specifically for you. Anyway, please listen to me. β
The expression on Mori Dao's face suddenly became embarrassed. The rest of the people didn't know what the situation was, and looked at Sen Qian strangely and said to Sen Dao in a gloomy tone,
"That kid is getting along very closely with the prince of Qinshan Kingdom now, and sure enough, some people are born to play with power. β
"Sen Dao, the matter of the Qiao family's boy, don't be smart anymore. First of all, you know that you can't find the old man's true body in the Dream Clan's Dafa. But you've always wanted to kill me, just like I've always wanted to kill you with righteousness. β
"Secondly, you knew from many years ago that the Dream Palace had gradually turned into a force capable of competing with the Dao Realm. Not to mention the secret strife between you and me. If we make the slightest mistake, you will perish, and if you make the wrong move, you will be swallowed up by us. The current situation is that you and I are not willing to take the next move first, so no matter how reluctant we are, we must strive for peace. It's just that there are quite a few people in your Dao realm who still don't understand this truth. β
"You really understand things and don't look down on us. So you started to cultivate your own chess pieces very early, that is, the kid of the Qiao family. You intend to train him to be the mainstay of the peak power of the Dao Realm in the world. He will listen to you, but he will not know how sinister your intentions are. β
"I'm sure you came into that child's life when he was a kid and have been influencing his life ever since. However, you cultivate him, but you don't think about him halfway. You marked his body by intersecting yourself with him, just to try to get my attention and make the old man panic. But you don't teach him any way to monastic. First, you feel that this kid has no cultivation roots to speak of, and second, you think that this strange phenomenon can whet my appetite even more. β
"Indeed, I have long since discovered that there is some kind of connection between that child and you. I knew it before Qiao's Mansion was established. Even if you have a good eye, watching this child revive with the Qiao family, he gradually became an ideal person who is good at playing tricks. You think that if you give him time, he will make a difference in the world, and that's fine. β
"But you think that the old man will be afraid of this, and that if he does exactly what you do, it will be a great disadvantage to my dream palace in the future. β
"You're underestimating me, little brother. Steadiness is a truth that has been taught to me for hundreds of years. Even if he Qiao Liangyan becomes the emperor tomorrow, he will obey your words and even unify the northern border of the mainland! Naturally, my dream palace is still blocked by soldiers, and the water is covered by water, and the old man will never go beyond the norm because of this worry. You even sent the relics of the five-colored mending stone to him, hoping that I would not be able to hold it back and go out of the mountain to strangle your chess pieces in the cradle. β
"In this way, I have fallen into the trap of the fairy land in your Dao. Whether it is whether I kill people and kill people myself, never let Qiao Liangyan suffer from this trouble, or send someone to act, you have already been monitoring him at all levels, and it is impossible to succeed. However, in this way, the whereabouts of the Dream Palace were discovered by you, which is an absolutely irreparable and huge mistake. β
"Sen Dao, the old man has lived for more than 800 years, and you think you can lure the snake out of the hole, but I don't know that I have already seen through your little cleverness. But what a coincidence, the kid of the Qiao family transferred the legacy to my apprentice. β
"I understand that his threat is really not as big as you estimate, Qiao Liangyan is just an addict to secular power games after all. It's just a kid trying to break through. β
"However, because of the transfer of the bequeath, for the first time in three hundred years, the two factions of you and I will no longer meet each other as enemies. You and I can talk harmoniously. What's even more coincidental is that because Heyue Sanqingshi accidentally bumped into these two children who met by mistake, they contributed to today's meeting. Do you think that today's meeting could have happened a few years ago?"
"There is a glimmer of chance between the Dream Palace and the Dao Realm, and they are no longer enemies! Your chess piece Qiao Liangyan is not only your fixed number, but after he is involved, it has become a variable of the whole thing that no one predicts. If it weren't for Sanqingshi, you and I would never meet here today. We who can't recognize the status quo will only intensify the struggle in the future, and we will lose both, and Lingzhou will fall into a catastrophe again. Therefore, the old man thinks that the ending brought about by these fixed variables is good. β
"If today's events can be discussed, you and I will be able to persuade our respective masters to bring about peace after we go back, which will be a great merit for this heaven and earth. Wonderful, wonderful. That child will one day be able to make a great career in the secular world, and he will be able to glorify his ancestors, so that this Qiao Mansion will stand proudly in the world and enjoy all the glory and wealth. But you, who are also a distinguished guest of the Dao Realm, in order to target the old man, is it really necessary to take pains with this mortal child?"
"Every game between you and me, the Dao Realm and the Dream Palace, is just a game for us. However, the impact on Qiao Liangyan's child is lifelong. Do you understand?"
"And you, Zhuge Zhilan, don't tell me that the Dao Realm doesn't know anything about my brother's plans in this matter. You all know, we just think that mortals are our pawns. My husband used to think the same way, but now I have changed my mind. β
"Let Qiao Liangyan's child grow up freely and achieve a great worldly cause. The plan that was waiting for him, the old man thinks about it now, and he really disdains it. β
Sen Qian said something in the clouds, except for Sen Dao, the rest of the people didn't listen and didn't understand what he wanted to express too well. However, the intelligent He Yue immediately understood what Sen Qian meant. That's right, Qiao Liangyan has long been a person in this whole game, a chess piece that Sen Dao has cultivated for a long time.
In fact, from the relics of the five-color mending stone, it should be seen that Qiao Liangyan has an extraordinary relationship with Sen Dao. It's just that He Yue would never have imagined the purpose of Sen Dao's contact with Qiao Liangyan. Looking at the embarrassed expression on Sen Dao's face, she realized that what Master said was completely true.
Its purpose, the original purpose was twofold. One is to let Qiao Liangyan grow into a generation of heroes and be used by the Dao Realm. The other purpose is the most important, in order to attract Sen Qian's attention, so that he feels panicked because of Qiao Liangyan, so he makes irrational moves. In order to achieve this purpose, Sen Dao even sent Qiao Liangyan the relics of the Heaven Replenishing Stone.
He Yue felt incomprehensible. She didn't see from Qiao Liangyan how transcendent the mortal qualities were. But why do the two of them think that Qiao Liangyan will definitely achieve a great cause and is destined to be extraordinary?
Maybe this is the vision of a master...
Qiao Xuebin, who was sitting on the ground, also realized the mystery in their words, and his already collapsed heart was even more mixed. In fact, before the Qiao family established the mansion, he was aware of the unusualness of this fourth brother, but he didn't know that Qiao Liangyan had such a close intersection with Sen Dao. However, Qiao Liangyan had something to do with all of this early on, but I'm afraid he didn't know anything about the plans behind them.
ββSen Dao began to contact Qiao Liangyan very early. Although the Qiao family was still a group of businessmen at that time, he was keenly aware of the child's intelligent nature. He who lives in Blackwater City all the year round, naturally knows the past history of the Qiao family under Jianzhu Peak, and also understands the ambition of the old man Qiao Shifan who is not willing to accept the status quo, and also knows that the Daozhong Wonderland accepts Qiao Xuebin as a disciple. He thinks that sooner or later, the Qiao family will become Qiao's mansion, and Qiao Liangyan will definitely achieve great things in the future. So he walked into Qiao Liangyan's life, imperceptibly influencing him, and even sent the Heaven Mending Stone Relic to him a few years ago, but he didn't know anything about this treasure. For all this, Qiao Xuebin was annoyed that he should have found out a long time ago.
After so many years, Qiao Liangyan should also know some things about the Dao Realm, right? Sen Dao's abacus was correct, and Qiao Xuebin also felt more and more that the fourth brother had become mysterious and unpredictable, and he had a close intersection with the old man, as if he was a future heir. It wasn't until Qiao Liangyan became the acting head of the family not long ago that Qiao Xuebin found out that he had such a close connection with the prince, he was reliable, decent, full of strategy, and conscientious. Just as Sen Dao planned, Qiao Liangyan gradually learned the way of power, and maneuvered between the prince and Blackwater City with ease. Qiao Xuebin does not doubt it now, given time, Qiao Liangyan will definitely be able to help Qiao Mansion ascend to the status of a first-class family, and he will also be famous in the world, and his achievements are limitless.
And these are not the focus of Sen Dao's contact with Qiao Liangyan. He did this more to attract Sen Qian's attention and draw out the movement of the Dream Palace.
He couldn't help but raise his head to look at Sen Dao, who was powerless to refute, and there was a faint anger burning in his heart. Sen Qian is right, every game between the Dao Realm and the Dream Palace is just a game for me and them. However, the impact on ordinary people like Qiao Liangyan is lifelong. Mori Dao intervened in his life, but the purpose was very impure. In any case, Qiao Liangyan is his brother, and he is naturally dissatisfied with Sen Dao. The ordinary life of an ordinary person was dragged into the dispute and chaos between the two factions by Sendao.
He was like that too. When Uncle Egret told him about unbelievable things like the Heavenly Realm Governor, Qiao Xuebin actually felt deeply uneasy. No one can tell themselves what happened in the past life and what their mission is in this life. In fact, even as a disciple of the Dao Realm, he does not have huge ambitions and aspirations, in Qiao Xuebin's heart, he is still an ordinary scholar in the world, a child of a new family. It was precisely because of this that the huge amount of information made him feel breathless.
"Brother, I see. Maybe you've really changed a little now. Since you say so, I don't want to involve the disputes between you and me, you and me, on others. Well, if the two factions can really reconcile, there really won't be any need for these troubles....."
"That kid from the Qiao family is still a child, you should have let go of this chess piece a long time ago and let him grow up freely. But then again, the old man is really a failure, and it actually makes you think that using this method can really make me panic. Hehe......"
Bailu Daozi, who hadn't spoken for a long time, slowly raised his head and said to Sen Qian seriously, "This seat only knows a little about this matter, but I don't know anything about who the chess pieces placed by Sen Daoist friends in the world are. However, since your dream palace already has a plan to reconcile, you two brothers don't have to hate each other anymore, and there is no need for Mori Daoist to continue to manipulate that chess piece. It's better for the two of you to completely release your previous suspicions. Let's get down to business. β
Sen Qian sneered and muttered, "This is the decision of the Hundred Clans of the Holy Palace, and the old man's grievances will be settled." β
"Alright, let's get down to business. Zheng Ergou, who was standing next to Sen Qian, came out to play a round with a smile on his face. Now he is a little fluttering, just now I heard that he and Qiao Xuebin were specifically mentioned at the Senqian Sacred Palace Conference, then he Zheng Ming can be regarded as famous in the entire Holy Palace. Thinking of this, Zheng Ergou couldn't help but feel a little proud, so he wanted to promote today's negotiation between the two sides.
"Okay, then let this kid go to the Dao Realm in person for a while. However, since this matter involves the Governor of the Upper Realm, it must be difficult to keep secret. β
Egret Michiko nodded, "Yes." Therefore, this seat must at least convince Lord Bo Daozi. In order to achieve this, we need to stabilize the situation of the entire Dao Realm with thunder means!"
