Text: Chapter XVIII

"Unexpectedly, you successfully got back the Ganoderma lucidum, and you are really a little heroic." The man in black said. He knew that there were many people with powerful spells in the different dimension, if he saw a person from the demon realm mixed in, how could he let it go? But no, the boy returned safely.

An Lengyao smiled slightly and took a step forward: "Brother Liang, thank you for your help to the two of us." After bothering for so long, we don't thank you anymore, and we have to hurry back to the Demon Realm. ”

"Yes, thank you." Yue Ming hurriedly thanked him. Along the way, although I encountered difficulties several times, I was fortunate that there were people who were willing to help them. After all, there are still many good people in the Six Realms.

The man in black just smiled and shook his head, but didn't say anything. Actually, he wanted to thank the two children. It was the two of them who touched him with their friendship, and reminded him of the years of joy and sorrow that had been reconciled many years ago. For so long, he had lived alone in the cave, and now his dusty heart finally felt the long-lost touch.

He thought that in the days to come, he would not wait for the passage of time and remain indifferent. Although his former friends are gone, he still has memories. Memories are always the most permanent thing. He can savor it in the long hours of time, can't he?

An Lengyao looked at the calm man in front of him, even though this person's face was covered, only his eyes were revealed. But for some reason, he could still see the emotions buried in those seemingly calm eyes. He thought that this person must also have an unknown past. That's why when I'm lonely, I show that kind of gaze - sad but quiet. It seems that after the baptism of too many years, even the parting of life and death can be calmly recalled.

An Lengyao understood that maybe these past events in Liangcheng were just like the memories he saw in the illusion that he didn't want to be mentioned. Therefore, he naturally did not open his mouth to ask him.

At the time of the final parting, the man in black was still the same indifferent appearance as usual, did not say a word, turned around and disappeared into the cave.

Yue Ming and An Lengyao didn't stay here for a moment, so they hurried towards the Demon Realm.

The way back was much better than when I came. Because of the spirit bead in his arms, there is no need to take more detours. After the two of them crossed the mountain, it didn't take long for them to return to the Demon Realm.

Yin Qianluo saw Yue Ming for the first time, and hugged him tightly in his arms. Her worries about Yue Ming are self-evident.

"Mom." Yue Ming screamed softly. For the first time, he found that his mother's arms were so warm.

Ye Qian stood aside and looked at An Lengyao and Yue Ming appreciatively, and said with a smile: "I knew that I didn't choose the wrong person. ”

Now that An Lengyao and Yue Ming have successfully brought back Lingzhi, all the dangers have been solved. Ye Qian and Yin Qianluo have taken care of everything in the past few days, and they have also gathered the strength of some people who have cultivated deeply in the Demon Realm, just waiting for Lingzhi. Now, when Lingzhi appeared, they immediately laid out the formation and placed Lingzhi in the center of the formation. The small Lingzhi immediately emitted an orange golden light, and in an instant, its light covered the entire Magic Pagoda and then gradually penetrated into the Magic Pagoda.

Then, several forces were intertwined, forming a small stone that emitted a purple light, and the stone gradually floated to the top of the tower, and then it never moved again.

Ye Qian looked at everything in front of him, and finally breathed a sigh of relief: "The magic stone has been completed, and the magic nightmare has been successfully sealed back into the tower." The danger of the Demon Realm has finally been solved. ”

With his words, the sky in the Demon Realm that had been covered with dark clouds in the past few days was scattered. The sky gradually regained its original brilliance, and the land was reborn.

Yue Ming looked around, and then realized that the demon world that had returned to its former tranquility was so beautiful.

When he was young, he secretly swore in his heart for the first time that in this life and this life, he would do his best to keep the original beauty of the demon world. He won't allow anyone to break this beauty, no matter who it is!

Divine Realm.

The clear blue sky was like a transparent spar, and a few pure white clouds floated leisurely in the sky. Under the sun, there is a large green meadow. A little girl is running through this dense grassy garden, chasing a few fluttering butterflies. A boy was following her, telling her to "stay safe" from time to time.

"Brother, I'm really getting more and more fond of it." Phantom Ice said back to Phantom while playing.

The Phantom couldn't help but smile as she looked at her bright smile as she said this. What could be more important than making your sister happy? Although the two siblings had been wandering around and suffered a lot, they were fortunate to have found a place to live. And all of this, thanks to the spirit of the night.

Although Lingye doesn't say much on weekdays, Phantom knows that this seemingly cold teenager is silently caring about you all the time. Since the two of them lived here, almost everything, from daily food, clothing, housing and transportation to martial arts and learning, Lingye had thought carefully about them, which made the phantom have to be moved and grateful to him.

Just as the phantom was thinking about these things, he saw a blue light suddenly fly in the sky. The blue light fell not far away, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a person.

"Spirit King!" The phantom shouted not far away. A few days ago, I went to the different dimensions to check the current situation, and I didn't return for a few days, but now I finally came back.

"Phantom." After Ling Ye saw the person in front of him clearly, he also shouted with a smile.

Phantom shouted to Phantom Ice, who was still playing in front of him, "Phantom Ice, who do you see coming back?" ”

Phantom Bing turned around, saw Ling Ye, and ran over happily, "Brother Ling Ye, why have you been there for so long?" ”

Ling Ye has always liked this innocent and cute little girl, and in the days she came to the God Realm, he had already regarded her as his sister. He smiled and touched her head and asked, "In the few days I've been away, have you practiced spells with Sister Wenya?" ”

"Yes." Phantom Bing nodded vigorously, for fear that Ling Ye would not believe it, "Sister Wenya said that I studied very well." ”

"Really?" Ling Ye said, "Phantom Ice is really powerful. Okay, you go and keep playing. Be careful, though, and don't run too far, you know? ”

"Hmm." Phantom Ice nodded obediently and ran away with a smile.

After Ling Ye saw Phantom Ice leave, he set his eyes on Phantom again. He glanced at the phantom, and suddenly he quickly reached out a hand and struck the phantom. Chronicle quickly dodged, landing not far away with a light jump.

Lingye then condensed into a ball of light in the shape of a water-blue flame between his fingers and shot towards the phantom.

The phantom didn't hurry, put his hands on his chest and swiped to the sides, a yellow vortex appeared in front of him, and the blue flame instantly disappeared into the vortex.

Ling Ye collected his mana and walked towards the phantom, "I wanted to try your martial arts, I wanted to catch you off guard, but you still took it all." Yes, it seems that you have made rapid progress in the past few days since I left. ”

The phantom shook his head, "I know it was the Spirit King who let me, and you just used less than thirty percent of your strength. If I use all my strength, I'm afraid I won't be able to fight back. ”

"I've been practicing spells since I was a child, and you're just learning it, so how can that compare? Your potential is already great, and in time, you will be able to succeed. Lingye said to him, with a hint of praise between his words.

"It's not so much that I've improved, it's better that the Spirit King has taught me well." Phantom smiled faintly.

"Have you forgotten what I said, no matter what you do, your own efforts are the most important." Lingye said. He has always valued people who do the best they can, and Phantoms are exactly the people he admires.

The phantom turned his gaze to the vast grassland, and his eyes became much deeper: "Hard work is important, but getting such an opportunity is the most important thing. I once wandered around with Phantom Ice, and once I met a man who knew how to use spells, and I begged him to teach me a few tricks to defend myself. Who knew that the person told me sarcastically that it was not easy for people like me and Phantom Ice to be helpless and wandering all day long, and they even wanted to learn spells. When he said this, he swaggered away. At that time, I was thinking that maybe people are different from each other. Some people are born with a noble status and have the opportunity to seize all good opportunities. And I and Phantom Ice are another kind of people, born as if they were inferior to others, with no place to live, and displaced. He never told anyone what was on his mind, and even in front of his sister, he never said much. But today, facing the night, he naturally confided the words that had been suppressed in his heart for so many years.

Lingye looked at the phantom and whispered, "So, do you think that people like me must be happy?" He knew that there were countless people in the God Realm who envied his status, and envied him for being the king of the God Realm at a young age. However, he alone understands that this kind of life is not what he wants to have.

The phantom was silent for a while, and slowly replied, "Perhaps, at least, the life of the Spirit King is much better than me and Phantom Ice, isn't it?" ”

Ling Ye smiled, but his smile showed infinite sadness and helplessness: "Yes, I didn't live that kind of exiled life. As you said, I was born destined to inherit my father's throne and have a pampered life. But do you think that people like me don't have troubles? The nobility of my status naturally gave me a lot of opportunities that others didn't have. The more things you can get, the more you have to bear the pressure that the world doesn't have, so that you don't get crushed by these things. ”

The phantom didn't say much, just listened quietly. From time to time, the crisp laughter of Phantom Ice could be heard in the distance, but the atmosphere here was so silent.

"My mother passed away when I was born. My father wanted his son to become a dragon, and he let me practice all kinds of spells since I was a child, and taught me the principles of how to behave in a human state. For as long as I can remember, I have faced all kinds of boring training and all kinds of people's minds every day. I almost never had a playful time, and most of the children of the same age in the divine realm were afraid of my high status and did not dare to get along with me. I envy you for having a sister who has always been with you. My father told me that the high places are not cold, even if there is a person who is willing to accompany you, you should not be sincere to that person, and walking on the road of kings, most afraid of being fascinated by friendship and making mistakes. Lingye's voice was very flat, as if he was just telling a small thing that had nothing to do with him.

After hearing this, the phantom did not speak for a long time. For the first time, he realized that even people who are high in the eyes of the world have their own difficulties and helplessness. It turns out that Lingye has to carry a lot alone. Moreover, what he carries is not only personal interests but also the safety of the entire divine realm. Ling Ye was obviously only a boy as old as him, but he already had such a heavy burden on his shoulders.

"I see. Everyone, no matter what kind of identity, has their own blessings and misfortunes. From now on, I will no longer blame people for their different statuses. "It's just that, Spirit King, as you said, since you have to be cautious when you walk on this path, why did you not only save us when you met me and I Phantom Ice, but also let us live here." Aren't you worried that I'm a bad guy with Phantom Ice? ”
