Chu Lie felt as if he had a long, long dream.

In the dream, he sat alone on the throne of the Star Palace, and only countless long swords accompanied him as far as he could see, and suddenly the dream changed, and he became a divine bird dancing wildly in the flames, and his wings stretched out were golden flames, rising up, or tall trees growing quietly, and with a calm and wandering indifference, he watched a tall human being with blonde hair and blue eyes kneeling in front of him with reverence and praying and dancing wildly, watching them build a country, watching their country prosper, watching their country decay, Finally, watch the once magnificent altar of the temple be wiped out by the flames of war and time.........

The final image freezes in front of the altar, a man with a crown in his hand, holding a long sword, angrily insulting 'himself', time is like a flying insect falling into amber, it becomes frozen, everything in this picture becomes blurred, only the broken altar, the sharp kings, and the raging war around the king become clearer and brighter, until it occupies his full vision.

"Uh-huh!"

Chu Lie's closed eyes widened suddenly, the picture in front of him dissipated, replaced by an antique house, a girl wearing a golden phoenix red dress was staring wide, staring at him blankly, the thing in his hand was almost instinctively stuffed into Chu Lie's mouth at the same time, the latter was slightly stunned, and then a mixture of numb, sour, spicy, bitter and various strong irritating tastes exploded on his tongue like explosives, and instantly swept every nerve in his body, Chu Lie's indifferent face turned blue and black almost instantly, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, as if it was instinct, and he didn't need to be confirmed by his brain to be slightly frightened, and shouted in a lost voice:

"Alicia, don't cook!"

"Let me come! cough cough cough~"

“……”

Bite~

Alicia looked at Chu Lie who was coughing violently with stimulation in a daze, her fingers trembled slightly, the spoon and soup bowl in her hand fell directly to the ground, making a soft dinging sound, and in the next moment, the girl had already spread her arms and threw herself directly into Chu Lie's arms, her black hair raised slightly, and then fell softly, and a pair of arms hugged Chu Lie tightly, as if he would disappear in the next second.

Chu Lie stiffened slightly, and then he heard a slightly choked voice ringing in his ears:

"You're finally awake......"

"I'm so scared...... I'm so scared ......."

As soon as he spoke, the arms hugged Chu Lie harder and harder, the latter was stunned, his palm was slightly stiffly raised, pressed on the girl's long black hair, and said softly: "Don't be afraid...... I'm here. ”

“…… Well. ”

The girl's little head rubbed lightly on Chu Lie's shoulder, and made a delicate nasal sound, for a while no one spoke, the atmosphere in the air was quiet and peaceful, Chu Lie found that his heart was unprecedentedly peaceful, smelling the faint fragrance on the girl's long hair, it seemed that it could go on like this forever.

"Emperor! Emperor! Are you alright?! Before, the thing in the Northern Heavenly Realm rioted, and the old man's trace of primordial spirit was directly frozen, and it was barely thawed until now......"

"How long has it been, I remember that you still have decades to live, have you run out now? Why don't you answer me......"

The anxious old voice sounded directly in Chu Lie's ears this time as if it exploded, and a fluctuation of the power of the Yuan Shen jumped up from his body, and then an illusory old Taoist priest appeared directly in front of him, and he was angry, and the speed of the flow of the power of the Yuan Shen in his body had reached a very strong level, and he was obviously ready to shoot with all his strength, but as soon as he came out, a pair of angry eyes just swept slightly, and his face suddenly became sluggish, as if he had been struck by lightning, looking at Chu Lie who was hugging the girl in the red dress.

“…………”

“…………”

An old man and a young man, one of the two men was expressionless, the other was staring at each other with a dull face, and the old man in a tattered robe suddenly took a step back directly, the wrinkles on his face were all squeezed together, and he said with a dry smile:

"I'm sorry, I'm in the wrong place, you guys continue to ......"

Crash~

After speaking, without waiting for Chu Lie to react, the old Taoist priest turned directly into wisps of Yuan Shen power as if he was fleeing, and once again submerged into Chu Lie's body, Chu Lie stiffly withdrew his gaze, and a girl's curious voice came from his ears: "Who is it?" Chu Lie...... Did anyone just come out? ”

"Nothing...... You're reading ...... wrong."

Chu Lie's face froze slightly, but he still said slowly without changing his face, but at this time, he suddenly felt that something seemed to be wrong, and slowly raised his eyes, in front of him, the old man was floating in the air like a ghost and a wild ghost, his eyes were almost bulging out of his sockets, and he looked at Chu Lie deadly.

"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable...... Emperor, you, you, you...... Have you become an immortal?! ”

………………………………………………………………

“…… I see, is it a blessing in disguise, good, good! ”

"Emperor, you have to thank Suzaku for your life, if it weren't for her, I'm afraid you would have turned into an ice sculpture for a hundred years because of rashly touching one of the cores of the World Tree, then the end, I don't need to say that you should also know ......"

"Since the lifespan is only a few decades now, don't casually touch these treasures that were taboo even in ancient times! Otherwise, even if your personality is strong enough to absorb them, the time it takes is at least a hundred years, and you don't have the qualifications to do that now......"

The manifested old Taoist priest stroked his long beard, his eyes first swept over Chu Lie's face with a slight warning, and then fell on the girl in the red dress with an embarrassed face, like a truly kind old man, and smiled lightly: "However, the old man never knew that the emperor had a marriage with the lord of the Seven Houses in the south in his previous life, hehe~ If you had known this, Xuanwu might have hit your Taibai Palace back then...... Everyone in the Four Heavenly Realms knows that it is not a matter of one or two hundred years for this Lord of the Seven Northern Houses to pursue Vermilion Bird......"

As he was talking, he suddenly found that the girl in front of him was looking at him angrily, and the white emperor on the side seemed to have a faint unkindness in his eyes, the old Taoist priest coughed lightly twice, and very wisely opened the topic, did not continue, and said embarrassedly: "Just now the old man has seen the state of the emperor at this time, although the immortal foundation has been cast, but because of the lack of foundation, the cultivation is only comparable to the monk of the peak of the intersection of inside and outside the mortal world, and he is far from being an immortal. What's more, it was the Western White Emperor who was extremely strong even among the true immortals back then. ”

"And ......"

The old man's voice paused slightly, his brows furrowed slightly as he looked at Chu Lie, and said:

"Because the emperor is now an immortal, the original trick is basically equivalent to wasting the power of the immortal, and ten percent of the strength can make up to two percent, and the overall strength is not rising but falling."

PS: Well, in the previous chapter, what Alicia did was mainly to revive Chu Lie, who had become an ice lump, not a design, just a coincidence~

PS: Then, ladies and gentlemen, happy Qixi Festival, are you full today~
