Chapter 770: Arrange the Aftermath
Regardless of whether Zhang Ruochen said the truth or not, Huang Yanchen only felt a little better, and said tentatively: "Actually, I can feel that Xing Ling loves you very much." It's only because of me, that's why she deliberately kept a certain distance from you. Can you tell me what you've been through with her in the last year?"
For some reason, Zhang Ruochen's mind immediately appeared that night, the scene of his deep kiss with Mu Lingxi that night.
Although there were many factors that were difficult to control rationally in that kiss, Zhang Ruochen still had a deep sense of guilt in his heart.
Zhang Ruochen glanced at Huang Yanchen, and reason told him that he must not say anything about this matter, otherwise, it would be in vain to make any explanation.
So next, Zhang Ruochen avoided the important and told Huang Yanchen about his experience in the past year, how he met Mu Lingxi, how he killed Emperor Yi, and how he came to Liangyi Sect...... Wait a minute.
Huang Yanchen listened very carefully, and unconsciously, she was already snuggled in Zhang Ruochen's arms, leaning her crystal clear face against Zhang Ruochen's chest, closing her eyes, revealing only two rows of fine eyelashes.
Her features were exquisite, her skin was moisturized, and her long royal blue hair was scattered on the floor, as if she had fallen asleep. It's just that the rosy lips opened slightly, and said, "Zhang Ruochen, Xing Ling is a good girl, you can't let her down." ”
"Hmm!"
Zhang Ruochen nodded and said, "She is indeed a woman who dares to love and hate, and is affectionate and sexual. ”
Originally, Huang Yanchen's eyes that had been closed immediately opened and said, "So, something must have happened between you and her, right?"
Zhang Ruochen's expression was solemn, his hands were clenched tightly, and he couldn't bear to lie to her again.
Some things, now that they have already happened, there is no need to hide them.
It's just that Huang Yanchen stared at Zhang Ruochen's eyes, and he guessed that Zhang Ruochen and Duanjupiter Spirit might really be more than just friends.
So, before Zhang Ruochen could say it, she took the first step and said: "Forget it, when I didn't ask." ”
And just like that, the two fell silent.
When the morning came, a warm ray of sunlight shone from a distance and fell on the two of them.
Han Xue carried a sword on his back and walked over from a distance, appearing behind Zhang Ruochen and Huang Yanchen, his voice was quite green, and said: "Master, Master asked me to tell you that he wants to see you alone, there are some things that need to be talked about with you." ”
Zhang Ruochen stood up and was about to leave.
Behind him, Huang Yanchen's voice came: "Zhang Ruochen, ...... tonight Come to my room and I will always be waiting for you. ”
Zhang Ruochen's footsteps stopped slightly, naturally he understood the meaning of Huang Yanchen's words, but he just said "um", continued to take steps, and left this place with Han Xue.
Zhang Ruochen saw the Xuanji Sword Saint again, and found that his old man had become more unpretentious, sitting on a wooden bench, using bamboo, weaving a bamboo basket, like a simple country craftsman, without a trace of the sharpness that a peerless Sword Saint should have.
It's a back-to-basics temperament!
The hands of the Xuanji Sword Saint were full of wrinkles, and every movement seemed very smooth, weaving each piece of bamboo extremely evenly, and finally, the woven bamboo basket was actually quite exquisite.
"Xiao Xue'er, take it!"
With a smile on his face, Xuanji Sword Saint handed the bamboo basket to Han Xue.
"Thank you, Master. ”
Han Xue carried the bamboo basket and left.
The old eyes of the Xuanji Sword Saint stared at the back of Han Xue leaving, and squinted and smiled: "Thousand bone physique, kendo wizard." Ruochen, this female disciple you accepted, she had already cultivated Jian Yi to the seventh layer realm at a young age, and her talent was even higher than yours, and her future achievements were unimaginable. ”
Zhang Ruochen stood beside the Xuanji Sword Saint and said, "Xue'er's qualifications are indeed the only ones I have seen in my life, and any swordsmanship can be learned as soon as I learn it." It wasn't long ago that I handed over the experience of "Sword One" to her, and I didn't expect that she had already cultivated to the seventh layer realm. ”
After a while, the Xuanji Sword Saint asked again, "You have already told the truth to the Smoke and Dust Girl?"
Zhang Ruochen nodded and said, "Since she has already guessed, I don't want to continue to hide it, everything can only go with the flow, whether it is a blessing or a curse, who can tell?"
Xuanji Sword Saint was also very calm, and said: "You and her are indeed a little hard, and it may not be a bad thing for you to experience some more ups and downs and all kinds of life situations." ”
Zhang Ruochen shook his head with a wry smile and said, "I found that the realm of the master seems to have reached a higher level, giving people a feeling of returning to the basics. Could it be that Master Venerable has already broken through that realm?"
Xuanji Sword Saint shook his head with a smile and said, "If you want to break through that realm, how easy is it?" It's just that after the adjustment in the recent period, the mentality has indeed undergone some changes, and he has taken winning and losing, life and death very lightly. ”
"Perhaps, when you reach my realm, you can also realize that step. What should come happens in front of you, and you accept it gladly. Things that shouldn't come happen happen in front of you, and you can accept them happily. ”
"Don't talk about this, I called you over this time mainly to talk to you about three things. ”
After finishing speaking, the Xuanji Sword Saint sat down on the ground first. Zhang Ruochen flicked his robe, sat on the opposite side respectfully, and listened carefully.
The Xuanji Sword Saint was sitting precariously, and the momentum on his body suddenly became a little fierce, and he said, "The sword you are using on the Book Mountain is the Void Sword of the Thousand Bone Empress?"
"That's right. Zhang Ruochen said.
Xuanji Sword Saint said: "Do you know that there is a legend about the Void Sword. In the Middle Ages, the Empress of the Thousand Bones fought a god in the Eastern Regions, and finally killed the opponent with the Void Sword. ”
However, after that battle, the Thousand Bones Empress also disappeared. ”
"Later, in the middle of the Fallen God Mountain, there was a mysterious and unpredictable tomb forest of the dead gods. It is said that someone saw the Thousand Bones Empress enter the depths of the Tomb of the Dead God, and since then, she has never come out again. ”
"Hades?" Zhang Ruochen said.
In the depths of the Tomb of the Dead God is the legendary underworld.
It was a place where anyone who went in couldn't get out.
"It's Hades. ”
Xuanji Sword Saint nodded and said, "Some people speculate that the Thousand Bone Empress must have discovered something back then, so she will enter the underworld with one sword and one sword to stop the unknown hidden dangers. ”
"Some people also say that the gods who were killed by the Empress of the Thousand Bones escaped from the underworld. ”
"There are different opinions, and no one knows what is true and what is false. However, one thing is certain, the undead in the underworld cannot escape from the Grave Forest of the Dead God, and it must have a great relationship with the Thousand Bone Empress. ”
Zhang Ruochen's brows furrowed, and then, he nodded, and said, "I'm afraid that only the Thousand Bone Empress can suppress the undead in the underworld." ”
Xuanji Sword Saint Zhengse said: "However, the Void Sword appeared in your hand, so it can be seen that the Thousand Bone Empress is likely to have fallen. In this way, the Graveyard of the Dead God becomes an uncertain factor, and those undead are fierce and may escape at any time. If this is the case, the prosperous Eastern Regions will probably become a hell on earth overnight. ”
Zhang Ruochen gasped and finally realized that something was wrong.
"Of course, these are all speculations for the teacher, and no one can say what the situation is in the depths of the Dead God Tomb Forest. ”
Xuanji Sword Saint smiled slightly, which made the solemn atmosphere lighten a little, and said, "The reason why the teacher is telling you this is just to give you a wake-up call. The Void Sword is a supreme holy weapon, full of spirituality, it will appear in your hands, it is by no means accidental, it is likely that it will come to you on its own initiative. ”
"If, one day, the undead of the underworld really escaped, the only solution would be to bring the Void Sword back to the Graveyard of the Dead God and find the Thousand Bone Empress. If you can find her, you may be able to defuse a disaster. ”
Zhang Ruochen said: "The disciple must remember the words of the master. ”
Xuanji Sword Saint didn't say anything more, and said: "The second thing, since the ninth day of the ninth month is going to fight with the Nine Shadows Sword Saint to the death, it is natural to arrange the future in advance. ”
"Master......" Zhang Ruochen said.
Xuanji Sword Saint stretched out a hand to stop what Zhang Ruochen was about to say, and then raised his hands and gathered them towards the center of his eyebrows.
In the center of Xuanji Sword Saint's eyebrows, a silver point of light appeared.
A holy sword flew out of his eyebrows, levitating in mid-air between the two of them.
The holy sword is four feet long and three inches wide, but the body of the sword is irregular, like a rectangular ruler.
The body of the sword is very smooth, as if it was made of sterling silver, and there are white lines of imprints on it that flow slowly.
"This sword is called 'monstrous'. Counting from the patriarch's generation, it has been passed down for sixteen generations, each of which is guarded by a sword master, and at the same time is defending a huge secret. ”
Zhang Ruochen asked, "What secret?"
Xuanji Sword Saint shook his head with a smile and said, "I don't know very well as a teacher, what the secret is. Because, in the entire Kunlun Realm, there are a total of six similar swords, divided into six veins, and held by six people. If the time is not right, even the six sword bearers will not know the role of the six holy swords. ”
"I fought with the Nine Shadows Sword Saint, if I was unfortunately defeated and died, you are the next generation of sword bearers of the monstrous sword, take the corpse of the teacher and the monstrous sword, go to the Hades Sword Tomb in the Central Region, and bury the master and the ancestors of the past dynasties together. When you get there, naturally someone will tell you everything. ”
"Hades Sword Shrine. ”
Zhang Ruochen read a sentence along, memorized it silently, and then said: "When the Sword Conference is held, the master will definitely not be defeated, and he will definitely be able to defeat the Nine Shadows Sword Saint." ”
"The state of mind of the teacher has surpassed him, and he is at least seventy percent sure that he can win. Arrange the aftermath in advance, just in case. The heir of the monstrous holy sword must not be interrupted. ”
Xuanji Sword Saint also seemed to be extremely confident in his own swordsmanship, and a confident smile appeared on his old face.
Zhang Ruochen said: "So, the third thing that the master said?"
Xuanji Sword Saint smiled faintly, put away the monstrous holy sword, and said, "The third thing is to help you cultivate the Thirty-six Transformations of Invisible and Formless, so that in the future, you will encounter some old monsters and expose your identity." ”
In the following time, Zhang Ruochen followed the Xuanji Sword Saint to concentrate on cultivating the Thirty-six Phases of Formlessness, and it was not until night fell that the two of them stopped.
Zhang Ruochen returned to the retreat stone house, preparing to be alone and continue to cultivate the Thirty-six Transformations of Formlessness and Formlessness.
Suddenly, he stopped, and in his mind, he remembered what Huang Yanchen had said.
After hesitating for a moment, Zhang Ruochen finally stood up, left the retreat stone house, stepped on the soft moonlight, and walked towards the room of Huang Yanchen.
