After the trip to the world, Qihuang is still the same Qihuang, and the demon lord is still the same demon lord.

But some things are quietly changing, such as her relationship with Kai Zero seems to be a little more subtle, such as her opinion of the demon has also tended to soften.

When I came to the academy today, the reactions of all the children of the Demon Realm were quite strange, and the eyes of the slender clouds seemed to be on fire.

But she's used to it, and she doesn't take it to heart, what makes her care about is another thing.

In the past few days, Qihuang can't help but think, if she recovers her true body one day and all the truth is revealed, what position should she stand on, and what kind of identity should she use to face Qi Ling?

There is no answer to all this, and Qihuang even has a trace of expectation that his spiritual power and identity can be recovered not so quickly.

It wasn't until she accidentally touched the crack in the ring in her hand that she suddenly remembered who she was.

Yes, she is imprisoned and protected by the ring, she is just a hostage from the heavenly realm, just a mediocre person named "Qihuang" with low qualifications. But when she breaks free, she can't just be a "phoenix".

Sometimes, a person's identity often determines a person's position and front.

But does she really want to be his enemy? Qihuang began to be confused, and began to ask why she chose to become the god of war in the heavenly realm, just because she was a celestial?

No one can give her an answer.

She also knew that she didn't have that much energy to think about it. Only by having the ability to live through the present can we think about the future.

And at present, the rift in the ring is undoubtedly an urgent need for Qihuang.

She thought about it for a long time, and for a moment she didn't know who she should turn to for help.

Ling Xiang, who was behind Qihuang, had been paying attention to her for a long time, Xu was aware of the abnormality, hesitated for a moment, and finally couldn't help but get up.

She walked up to Qihuang and asked with concern, "What's wrong with you? Why have you been so worried since you came back from your trip to the world?" ”

Qihuang was tortured by these things, and was slightly startled for a while, and after reacting, he hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, Lingshang, I haven't rested well in the past few days, don't worry." ”

Speaking of which, when she first came to the Demon Realm, she was quite vigilant, and there would never be a situation where someone was behind her and there was no response, but now somehow she has lowered her vigilance a lot.

When Ling Sheng heard this, her face still did not ease, but she was a little more worried: "You don't look like you haven't rested well, is something wrong, why don't you say it, maybe I can help you." ”

Ling Shang's words made Qihuang's heart warm, she never thought that she could meet such a friend in the demon world.

Ling Shang is smart, careful, cold on the outside and hot on the inside, and he is desperate to stand on Qihuang's side in several confrontations with Xianyun, even at the expense of making himself the target of the public.

She's so good, but it's because she's so good that Qihuang is so embarrassed. The stakes were too high for her to implicate her.

Besides, Qihuang didn't know what she would think of herself if she let Ling Sheng know her identity.

Qihuang sat in his position, his head lowered, his eyes showing a bit of dazedness and worry, and he seemed to be quite embarrassed and aggrieved.

Ling Sheng had seen her look like this, no, it should be said that she was all too familiar.

Whenever Qihuang felt guilty for something she thought had caused someone else, she would show this expression.

And Ling Sheng knows that people like her must be recognized and affirmed over and over again before they can feel safe.

So this time, Ling Sheng did not choose to let Qihuang hold everything in his heart, but took a tough attitude and said, "If you treat me as a friend, it is better to tell me the troubles in your heart." Don't think about anything that will bother me, I don't care about that. ”

"Ling Shang ......" Qihuang's heart swelled with a strange feeling, like bitterness and warmth.

She suddenly felt like a piece of shit. In the past, she was not worthy of the shocking talent, and now she is not worthy of Ling Shang's sincerity, or even Shao Kun's inexplicable overtures.

Being able to make friends with Ling Sheng is a blessing for her three lives.

"How is it, are you going to say it?" Ling Shang hooked his lips and smiled, extremely gentle, which made Qihuang feel at ease for the first time in this terrifying demon world.

Qihuang choked slightly, as if struggling, for embarrassment: "But this matter is really too important." And, I don't know what to do with you. ”

At this moment, she cares more about Ling Shang's reaction than being embarrassed by everyone in the demon world when her identity is exposed, and she cares more about what this rare best friend will think of her.

"No, but. If you trust me, just ask. No matter what happens, I'll be on your side. Ling Shang seemed to be making a promise to Qihuang.

No matter what happens, I'll be on your side.

This sentence deeply touched the most sensitive string in Qihuang's heart, and this was the first time she had been so resolutely identified. Without a hint of hesitation, there is no retreat.

It's not because she's a high-ranking god of war, it's just because in Ling Shang's opinion, she deserves deep friendship and trust.

Somehow, she wanted to cry.

It seemed that he noticed Qihuang's distressed throbbing, so Ling Shang pretended to be relaxed, laughed lightly, and teased: "I only thought you were a thin person, but I didn't expect you to be so sentimental." Why, but you want to cry?"

"It's not ......," Qihuang snorted and retorted.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not as heavy as Fang Cai, Ling Shang also relaxed a little, and said bluntly: "Can you tell me now, what happened?"

Qihuang was silent for a moment, and finally made up her mind to tell Ling Sheng everything.

She can trust her, she should know all this, even in the end, Ling Sheng is still on the opposite side of her, Qihuang knows that she should also give her the right to choose.

After a while, Qihuang got up, looked at Ling Shang at eye level, with a serious face, and proposed, "There are a lot of people here, let's go out and talk." ”

Ling Sheng nodded. The two of them left the school hall and found a quiet place. Not far away, Shao Kun and Xianyun only felt a little strange, and they were even more puzzled in their hearts.

Outside the corridor, Qihuang set his eyes in the distance in order to relieve the tense emotions in his heart.

I don't know if I've been in the demon world for a long time, Qihuang actually feels that this place is high and the water is clear, the distant mountains are like daisies, and if it is really as Qi Ling said, the scenery is beautiful, and it is not much better than the heavenly realm, but it is also an excellent place to go.

Ling Shang didn't urge, just waited for Qihuang to be fully prepared.

After a long time, Qihuang seemed to have finally thought about it, and even her eyes became much more indifferent, she opened her mouth unhurriedly, and said: "Ling Shang, in your opinion, what kind of person will the rumored Phoenix God of War be?"

Ling Shang was a little puzzled, and couldn't understand why Qihuang would mention this matter for no reason, but he also replied truthfully: "Although I am fortunate to witness the true face of the Demon Lord, I have never had a relationship with the Phoenix God of War. I really can't answer that question. ”

"Then what kind of person do you think I am?" Qihuang saw a lot at the moment.

She imagined that one day when she told her true identity to others, what kind of tone she would use and what kind of mood she would have, but she never expected that at this moment, she would be so calm.

"Very special," Ling Shang first summed it up in three words, and then said in detail, "You have mediocre qualifications and few cultivations, and it stands to reason that a character like you, coming to the Demon Realm and facing this embattled situation, should either be submissive or seek death and life." But you are different, you dare to confront the fox girl Xianyun head-on, dare to directly refuse the wolf Shao Shao Kun's overtures, and dare to save Yangchun. If you are bold and you promise to be the first, no one in this school is qualified to be the second. ”

When Qihuang heard this, his heart was slightly sweet, and he said obediently: "Is this a compliment to me?"

Unexpectedly, his image in Ling Xiang's heart was quite noble.

Ling Sheng didn't reply directly, and continued: "But you are sometimes very timid. You don't want to be close to people, you're afraid that you're going to be burdened by others, and you're afraid of being burdened by others. Too much worry, too much concern, and I don't know what you're worried about. Sometimes, there is a little softness. ”

"......" Qihuang was a little embarrassed, "Why are you so sincere, you have said all the good things." I thought that when people asked you this kind of question, you would pick up the nice ones. ”

"What's the point of that," Ling Shang asked rhetorically, and then spoke again, "However, I have one more sentence, I don't know if it's good or not." You have a very different temperament, quite special, not like an ordinary girl at all. However, I always feel that some people will be hurt by this temperament of yours. ”

"What do you mean?" Hearing this, Qihuang was puzzled. She didn't know what Ling Xiang's so-called "unusual temperament" meant, let alone who would be stabbed by herself.

The corners of Ling Xiang's eyes drooped slightly, Dan's lips opened slightly, and said, "I don't know, it's just a feeling, and you don't have to take it to heart...... But why do you suddenly ask me about my impression of you?"

"If I say I'm the Phoenix God of War, do you believe me?" Without a trace of hesitation, Qihuang knew that she couldn't hesitate, and once she hesitated, many things that she had finally made up her mind would die down again.

Ling Sheng was stunned.

The wind passed, bringing up the rhodosar on the corridor, and Qihuang's face suddenly began to blur a little in front of Ling Shang's eyes.

When the wind stopped, Ling Cai was suddenly startled. "What did you say?"

The words were stunned and confused, but they did not hear the blame and disgust. But Qihuang still felt a little guilty in his heart.

"I said, I'm the Phoenix God of War. The Phoenix God of War whose whereabouts are unknown after the battle with the Demon Lord Qi Zero three hundred years ago. ”

Ling Sheng took a heavy breath, as if to mediate the shock in his heart. At this moment, she looked at Qihuang and felt a little strange and solemn.

Yes, in that case, everything makes sense. Why does she, a nameless and partless celestial girl, have such a powerful aura and far-reaching pattern, why does she cultivate to a few real bodies but her momentum is undiminished, and she is not afraid......

All this is because she is the Phoenix God of War, the once dominant Phoenix God of War.

She never thought what kind of person the Phoenix God of War would be, but when she learned everything, she actually felt that she should be a person like Qihuang.

The impact on Ling Shang seemed to be a little beyond imagination, and she subconsciously took a few steps back again and again, almost stumbling.

Although Qihuang had already expected that she would not be able to accept it for a while, when she really faced such a situation, she was still a little uneasy and unbearable.

In an instant, Ling Sheng raised his eyes, looked directly at Qihuang, and asked Shen: "What the hell is going on, why are you ?......?"

"Why don't you have a real body, why did you come to the Demon Realm?" Qihuang answered lightly, as if trying to make this matter sound less heavy, "That's a long story. To say that the big devil is really powerful, after the battle that day, my spiritual power was almost completely lost, and there was only an occasional outbreak, but it was completely uncontrollable, just like the first attempt on that day, such as the fire in the Jade Palace, it was all unexpected by me. ”

Qihuang paused for a moment, as if to give Ling Sheng time to react, and then said, "So, in order to protect my life, my master made three silver rings. ”

Qihuang said, raised his left hand, pointed to the three rings one by one, and explained: "The function of this first one is to seal my true body, and because of this, you still can't find out who I am." The second one is to seal my primordial god, which is said to prevent my body from being destroyed and protect my primordial god. This is the third one...... It seems to be to seal my love roots, but so far, I don't know what the meaning and effect of this is. As for why I came to the Demon Realm, I have to ask the big devil, on the day of the feast, when the two sides exchanged hostages, the five princesses of the good Heavenly Realm did not choose, but had to be replaced by me. I came to the Demon Realm because I was really helpless. ”

Thinking of the past, Qihuang only felt angry. If it weren't for this big devil, she wouldn't know where she would be now.

Ling Xiang's face was solemn, and he didn't know what kind of remarks to make on this matter for a while. After a while, he asked in a deep voice, "Why do you want to tell me about this, aren't you afraid that I will report it to the Demon Lord?"

"I thought about it, but you said it, you will be on my side, of course I have to choose to believe you. Because you're the best person I've ever met," Qihuang smiled slightly, his expression a little innocent, "Also, I thought you'd tell the big devil about it." However, I genuinely consider you a friend, and even if you do choose to do so, I should respect you. Because you have the right to that choice. ”

When Ling Sheng heard this, she was stunned for a long time and didn't know what to say, she didn't expect the girl in front of her to trust her so much.

After a while, she only spit out one sentence: "Qihuang, why are you so stupid...... Silly and shafted. ”

Qihuang smiled, only regarded this as a compliment, and then said: "The main reason for my troubles these days is this. ”

As she spoke, she raised her left hand and leaned in front of Ling Sheng and motioned for her to look at the first ring.

"This ...... Crack?" Shocked, "What's going on?"

"I don't know, I woke up from the world that day and suddenly found it. ”

When Ling Sheng heard this, she was worried: "As you said, this ring is very important, and now that there is a crack, will there be any problems?"

Qihuang knows what this so-called "what's wrong" means, but unfortunately, she doesn't know much about it.

Qihuang shook his head: "I don't know, but once this ring falls off, then my true body can't be hidden." ”
