Chapter 218: Merit Selection (4)

The image shows that the truth is revealed. No one will pursue it anymore, after all, it is true.

The merit selection ends in such a dramatic way.

The immortals didn't care who rushed into the top ten this year, and they didn't even care about Lu Feng, who suddenly counted down to the top with a strange expression, and they were all talking about Shen Zhifeng winning the first place.

Standing on the platform, watching everyone dissipate their discussions, Shen Zhifeng breathed a long sigh of relief.

Emperor Yuxuan shook his head helplessly, and pulled Emperor Qingling, who couldn't figure it out, to leave.

Emperor Qingling went out to participate in the merit selection for the first time since Shen Zhifeng's return, but he didn't expect to encounter such an exciting thing. He felt that he needed to go back to retreat, to be quiet, for an unknown time.

After all the immortals left, Xue Jue slowly patted Shen Zhifeng's shoulder and said, "Look at the way you look now, it's like you've never won the first place." You've often been number one in the past, so you're more confident, okay?"

"It was a real first for me. Shen Zhifeng said weakly.

I didn't expect this first win to be so exciting, it made her tired. She felt that it was a little difficult to stand now, and she could only barely stand against the table.

Xue Jue suddenly pulled up her arm, let her lean on her body, and said lightly: "Zhifeng, if you are really tired, you can rely on me." ”

Shen Zhifeng suddenly hurriedly took a few steps back as if he had been electrocuted, and as a result, he fell directly off the platform. She couldn't stand up at all, so she could only pout and rub her ass.

Xue Jue jumped down from the platform, bent down slightly and stretched out his hand, and said helplessly: "Why are you reacting so much?"

Shen Zhifeng put his hands behind his back, put on a posture of refusing to pull him, and said with frightened eyes: "Xue Yao, don't go too far. Now many people think that our relationship is not normal, be careful that one day you will be pushed off the Sendai with me!"

The corners of Xue Jue's mouth hooked up a disdainful smile: "I am the emperor, who dares?"

"There are two more emperors, and you can't dominate one family!" Shen Zhifeng said, away from Xue Jue for some distance.

Xue Jue put away his hand awkwardly and looked at the sky with a light cough. At this moment, the sun is shining, and it is impossible to see that nearly half of the time has passed. If you do the math, it is already the hour of thousands of lights in the mortal world.

The two of them can express their feelings at will in the mortal world, but they can only be restricted in the heavenly court.

Shen Zhifeng looked at Xue Jue's expression, and suddenly asked thoughtlessly, "Do you miss the mortal world?"

Xue Jue continued to look at the sky and nodded: "A hundred years ago, when I heard you say that I missed the mortal world so much, I thought it was just hypocrisy. It wasn't until I lived in the mortal world for a hundred years that I realized that the mortal world was really so interesting. It's hard, I can't see the future, and I'm scared all the time. But when I really returned to Heaven, I missed that time very much, although there was no way, but I was very comfortable. ”

Shen Zhifeng moved from the ground to the first row of seats and sat down, looked at the bright sunlight and said, "Peng Yu may really regret becoming a god, so he will resolutely jump to Sendai." ”

"I don't think she's out of regret. Xue Jue said and sat down, "She jumped to Sendai because she assassinated me and felt guilty." ”

Shen Zhifeng thought of the image he had seen before, touched his chest, and said to himself, "Does Peng Yu really have the spirit of the Demon Venerable?"

When Xue Jue heard this, he immediately pouted with disdain: "Do you really think this is a script, how can Peng Yu have the spirit of the Demon Venerable? Unlike spirit beasts, mortals with impure spirits will never become immortals, not to mention that she has risen to the top of the gods so quickly." ”

Shen Zhifeng was stunned: "Then why did Peng Yu kill you?"

Xue Jue held his chin and said lightly: "I have also been thinking about this issue in the mortal world for a month. At first, I thought it was really Peng Yu who hated me, but then I remembered an incident we had in contact with before. As long as the person who trusts can manipulate the mind of others, so as to achieve temporary control over that person's actions. I suddenly understood that maybe Peng Yu was manipulated. ”

Shen Zhifeng pursed his lips: "It's too strange for you to say this, almost all of Peng Yu's most trusted people are immortals, and those people have no possibility of killing you at all." ”

"You're wrong, Peng Yu has more trusted people besides immortals. Xue Jue said and looked at Shen Zhifeng with a hint of murder in his eyes, "Your master in the mortal world, Shen Xiu, is the person you both trust the most. ”

Shen Zhifeng's eyes couldn't help but widen when he heard this name.

Shen Xiu is the master of Yuecheng Jade Xuanguan, not only young and good-looking, but also very great cultivation. Many mortals trusted him, and many of them even worshipped him as an immortal.

He is kind-hearted by nature and will always take in some homeless children. Shen Zhifeng was taken in at the age of three and given the surname Shen. She wasn't called Shen Zhifeng at that time, and when she was five years old, she was always injured because of her cultivation of spells, so she changed her name in a fit of anger.

Shen Zhifeng would turn to Shen Xiu for help if he had problems with his cultivation, treating him as his father. Later, she was forced to leave the Taoist temple to go on a cloud tour, and she would sneak back from time to time to take a look at him before leaving. She has always trusted Shen Xiu the most, and even when she became an immortal, she never forgot her master in the mortal world.

Xue Jue told Shen Zhifeng that when Peng Yu had just become an immortal, every time he had the opportunity to go to the mortal world to perform a mission, he would go to see his master. She would tell Shen Xiu about her troubles and achievements in Heavenly Court, and the two of them could sometimes even chat until dawn all night.

Such a powerful Shen Xiu did not soar, but was young. For this reason, Peng Yu was depressed for a long time, and there were still no clues in most places. She guessed that maybe Shen Xiu had become a scattered immortal and had nothing to do with anyone.

Coincidentally, on the eve of the Immortal and Demon War, Peng Yu learned of Shen Xiu's whereabouts. She was worried that this battle would last too long and that she would miss Shen Xiu again, so she specially ran to the mortal world.

Peng Yu, who came back from the mortal world, was very happy, saying that there was no change in his master, and said that when he won the victory, he would invite his master to come up as a guest.

It's a pity that it didn't happen, so she resolutely jumped into Zhuxiantai.

Recalling this stop, Shen Zhifeng couldn't help frowning, and analyzed: "So I suspect that Peng Yu was instilled with some kind of spell after finding her master, so she would lose control and kill me during the immortal and demon war." ”

Shen Zhifeng also felt that there was something strange about this matter.

Shen Xiu's cultivation is far above herself, she can soar, why has he disappeared for so many years without any news. And the spirit of the living junior brother I saw in the illusion before may also have something to do with him.

Thinking of this, Shen Zhifeng couldn't help but feel chills.

If the speculation is true, then Shen Xiu's plan has been there from the beginning. Whether it's taking you in or trusting yourself, it's all about bruising Heaven in the Immortal Demon War!
