"Boom, boom. ”

A loud noise could be heard in the distance, irritating the small stone room all the time. With the roar of the mountain, the small house let out its own wail—a click that echoed across the walls of the room, echoing through the narrow spaces of the room.

Gongsun Xiaoyan hugged his knees in this hut, buried his head between his arms, and sobbed tremblingly. He was afraid, afraid that the stone house was about to collapse—even the splinters of stone spilling from the roof would make his thin body shiver—but he did not dare to take half a step out of the house, for it was more dangerous beyond it.

But in this case, Gongsun Xiaoyan was still thinking about other people - even he felt so uneasy outside the battlefield, so what would happen to Gongsun Tianshou, Gongsun Tuo, and even Yu Qinglian, who might be in the middle of the battlefield.

"Well, that guy is still the same as before, and he doesn't care about the safety of ordinary people at all. ”

At this moment, the female voice of a bird's chirping sounded in the boy's ears, overpowering the distant explosion and the trembling of the house.

Gongsun Xiaoyan slowly raised his head from between his arms, and he saw that everything around him was covered with a halo of colorful light—the simple walls, the simple beds, and the neatly folded bedding, all looked a little more shiny.

And in the middle of the room, he saw a small bird with colorful feathers hovering in the air. It is so noble, so beautiful, and the colorful feathers seem to radiate light.

"Well, you are, the little bird I saw on the mountain road that day!"

Recalling the little bird with a one-sided relationship, Gongsun Xiaoyan said. Seeing this strange bird again under such circumstances is also a blessing in some cases.

"Bah, bah, I am a colorful auspicious phoenix, but you are called by such a earthy name. ”

After hearing Gongsun Xiaoyan's words, the colorful bird angrily knocked Gongsun Xiaoyan's head with its claws.

"Ahh ”

A violent pain came from the top of Gongsun Xiaoyan's head, which made him close his eyes and snort. The bird's claws are so slender, but the moment it falls, Gongsun Xiaoyan feels the force of falling like a stone.

"In the future, remember to call me the King of Ten Thousand Phoenixes, the Rainbow Divine Bird, the Heavenly Barrier Guardian, and the Emperor Feather!"

When I opened my eyes again, a girl dressed in colorful costumes suddenly appeared in the empty room. The noble and beautiful girl like the queen of all things made Gongsun Xiaoyan, who had a pure heart, unconsciously fascinated.

The girl pinched her waist and proudly declared her title (although a long list of names were her own). However, Gongsun Xiaoyan couldn't understand what she was saying at all, so he could only smile awkwardly.

"Yes, Lord Imperial Feather. ”

"Well, well, yes, the son can be taught, and it will be called like this in the future, but it is better to be more respectful. ”

The girl nodded in satisfaction.

Perhaps feeling that it would be ungraceful to stand like this all the time, the girl glanced at the shoddy wooden chair in the room and withdrew her gaze in disgust. In the end, the girl still chose to take out a colorful glass chair from her inner world, lifted her skirt and sat down.

Gongsun Xiaoyan watched the girl's every move silently, and the corners of his mouth twitched a few times unconsciously.

"Ahem, cough, it's my fault to let you, as a commoner, see the emperor's gaffe like this, I hereby apologize - forget the little episode just now, my appearance this time is not for the common people to make fun of-then, it's time to tell you my purpose!"

The girl coughed lightly a few times, put on the demeanor of an emperor again, and said seriously to Gongsun Xiaoyan.

"Well, isn't it possible that you came all the way to find me?"

After hearing these words, Gongsun Xiaoyan was confused. Although he knew that the girl was transformed into an extremely powerful demon beast, and he understood why she acted like an emperor, he couldn't understand the purpose of the girl's words at all.

Faced with the boy's question, a faint smile appeared on the girl's face.

"That's right, I came to you - I hope you will be a participant in the Road to Salvation project!"

。。。

"Very good, very good, at this moment, the power of the four elephants is at least just taking shape. ”

The huge white tiger spoke, its paws making human movements, against its jaws covered with white hair.

"Now, you can leave the sword shrine with peace of mind - the little guy over there has also solved the demon seed. ”

Beside the white tiger, the big red bird responded to the white tiger, and his words were full of satisfaction with the girl in front of him.

"But, then again, the power that devoured the demon seed just now... It always makes me feel a little... Disturbed... ”

Suzaku said, and Qinglong took over the topic again. Recalling the power that erupted just now, even it couldn't help but tremble, and the scales on its body were tense.

"yes, I always feel like that thing... Even if it is placed on the heavenly pass, it is an extremely terrifying existence... So, God knows what this realm lord is thinking, that kind of unclean thing dares to touch ... ”

Xuanwu among the four divine beasts recalled that when they fought above the Tianguan back then, his heart sank even more.

"That's it. ”

While the four divine beasts were discussing, Yan Luoyan, who had been in a meditative state, suddenly whispered to himself. The next moment, a four-colored light flashed around her body, but then it sank into her body.

"I didn't expect that I could really cultivate the power of the four elephants. ”

Yan Luoyan opened his eyes and sighed in disbelief.

"That's for sure—as the Four Directions Divine Beasts, we inject our respective powers into your body, and it would be strange if we couldn't cultivate it!"

After hearing the girl's exclamation, the huge white tiger said proudly.

"Okay, how can you say that this is also our nephew, can't you praise your juniors if you are a stupid cat?"

For what the White Tiger said, the green dragon was dissatisfied again, in its opinion, it was very good that Yan Luoyan could successfully cultivate the Four Elephants Sword Qi in such a short period of time. However, maybe it just blurted out when it was used to fighting with the white tiger.

"Huh, you four-legged snake knows how to talk back to Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu provoked you?!"

After hearing Qinglong's rebuttal, especially the "stupid cat", the white tiger was so angry that his hair exploded all over his body, and he glared at it viciously.

"What? Am I not right? No matter how strict the education of the younger generations is, the ones who should be praised should still be praised well-what if you pick a bone in the egg like you, what if you frustrate the spirit of the juniors? You don't even understand this and you still say that you are not a stupid cat??"

At this time, the green dragon was also a little angry, it was called a four-legged snake, it was simply a mad dragon!

"How do you know that Lao Tzu doesn't want to praise anymore? Four-legged snake, four-legged snake, four-legged snake, you just pretend to be respectful!"

Seeing that Qinglong looked like he was so angry that he was pretending to be calm, Baihu suddenly felt a little funny, so he continued to stimulate it.

"I'm x, you little cat owes a pump, don't you believe it I stripped you off to make a fur coat??"

Qinglong was furious, in the face of an arrogant guy like White Tiger, even he couldn't continue to uphold elegance like this.

"Come on, who is afraid of whom, you still want to skin Lao Tzu? I think Lao Tzu will pull off your dragon scales first to make dragon scale boots!"

In the face of the green dragon that gritted its teeth and was about to pounce, the white tiger did not back down at all, it was eager to fight with it.

"You two ... It's started again ... ”

Suzaku on the side said helplessly to Xuanwu, with a look of shame.

"Two seniors, can you stop arguing... In fact, it doesn't matter what you say, I will accept it, after all, you are all for my good. ”

Looking at the two-for-tat divine beasts, Yan Luoyan finally couldn't help but stop them.

"Very good, worthy of being the heir chosen by the eldest brother - it is very good and very good to be so sympathetic to the seniors - then as the uncle, I will listen to you and no longer worry about this stupid cat. ”

If Yan Luoyan hadn't spoken, this Qinglong would have really almost forgotten that this junior was present, and it also made him realize that it was really a shame to look like this in front of the junior. However, fortunately, when Yan Luoyan said these words, he could be regarded as having a step down.

"Cut, you four-legged snake, aren't you just scared? ”

For Qinglong, who stopped here, the white tiger looked disdainful, and even took this opportunity to continue to mock.

However, in response to the White Tiger's remarks, both Suzaku and Xuanwu cast disdainful glances at him, not to mention the green dragon's, who looked at the White Tiger like a fool.

After feeling the disgusting gaze of his companion, the white tiger finally realized that he was embarrassed, and suddenly felt embarrassed for a while.

"Ahem, ahem, that, that, that... Forget it, the Sword Shrine is about to close, so I'll go back to the Holy Seal first. ”

The white tiger wanted to excuse himself, but he didn't know what to do after thinking about it for a long time. Even if the jar was broken, he still went back to the holy seal and closed himself.

Seeing the White Tiger's actions, the other three divine beasts almost couldn't hold back their laughter, but the sudden fluctuation of spiritual power from a distance made them have to leave this behind.

"Well, it seems that the gate of the Sword Shrine is about to open, so let's go back to the Holy Seal first. Oh, by the way, your name is Yan Luoyan, right? As a disciple of the Huashan Sword Sect, you should know what the Holy Seal means—before, the four of us have already engraved our respective Holy Seals on your back—including our eldest brother's Holy Seal—and we will always be in the Holy Seal in the future, helping the eldest brother complete his teachings to you. ”

At the last moment of leaving the Sword Shrine, the divine beasts stopped their farce and told Yan Luoyan the reason why they were here.

Hearing these words, Yan Luoyan nodded. She still hasn't reacted to what happened to her. However, since these seniors chose her, she accepted it silently. For the incomprehension in my heart, I will slowly understand it in the future.

"Wait, seniors, where is the predecessor of the Four Elephant Sword Emperor now, I still want to say thank you to him!"

However, for this matter, Yan Luoyan still couldn't help but say it. She has nothing to do with the Four Elephants Sword Emperor, but she accepts all his kindness, how can she not be grateful for such a grace.

For this question, the three divine beasts were silent, and at this time, there was a trace of loneliness in their eyes.

"We don't know where he is now—but, I think, if you are willing to call him Master in the future, even if he can't hear him, you will be happy. ”

The moment the figure disappeared, the Suzaku replied calmly.

The words fell, and the four divine beasts all returned to the holy seal behind Yan Luoyan. Only Yan Luoyan was left in place.

She thought back to what Suzaku had said, and glanced at the back of her right hand—on the white palm of her hand, there was a sword-like mark.

"Thank you, Master I've only met once. ”
