Chapter 3: Haggard
Inside Tenpo Mountain.
"Pavilion Master Zhao, do you know what Elder Taishang is looking for me and the two of you?" Steward Wang and Zhao Hao walked side by side, and asked in a low voice.
"Hey, didn't you knowingly ask. Zhao Hao's expression was a little complicated, "After the eldest lady came back, her temperament changed greatly, she was very well-behaved, she worked hard to cultivate every day, and even I admired her seriousness!"
Steward Wang nodded: "Yes, I don't know what happened to the eldest lady outside, which can make her become like this, and the Supreme Elder won't let us investigate, but...... Miss, is it really good?"
"Elder Taishang is also worried, I have seen too many people and things in my life, although the eldest lady is very smart, she usually seems to be nothing, but she is still a child after all, she can't hide anything behind her smile, and I can see the bitter guilt at a glance. ”
Zhao Hao sighed, he began to think that the eccentric eldest lady before was cuter, although it didn't cause trouble to the two of them, but it was like a normal teenage girl.
"Knowing this, why didn't Elder Taishang take care of the eldest lady himself? instead, let us come over every day to report. Steward Wang asked again.
"Elder Taishang has a reason to do things, let's not speculate, let's get to Elder Taishang quickly!" Zhao Hao said, and began to speed up.
......
“...... Then the eldest lady began to study the Heavenly Rank Formation, and she didn't rest until the second half of the night. The steward said with a respectful expression, not daring to hide anything.
Zhao Hao listened quietly on the side, since the eldest lady returned from leaving the Heavenly City, the work and rest have become extremely regular, and the content of the daily report of the king steward is the same, if it is changed to before, this is absolutely impossible.
Elder Taishang sat in front of him, his eyes as bright as the starry sky and he didn't know what he was thinking, and only after Steward Wang finished reporting Deng Siyao's daily cultivation did Elder Taishang slowly speak.
"Zhao Hao, you stay for a while. ”
"Yes!"
"Elder Taishang, my subordinates retire. When the steward heard this, he immediately withdrew.
"Zhao Hao, what do you think about Yaoyao's affairs?
"Elder Taishang, the eldest lady has recently become very well-behaved, and the cultivation she didn't like before is also very hard, as for the formation, she is already extremely talented, after less than twenty days of study, she is much stronger than many Elders of the Qianlou Pavilion, and the ordinary Heavenly Rank Formation is not difficult for her!" Zhao Hao praised.
"Hehe, I also know the progress of the little girl, I didn't ask about this. Elder Taishang shook his head, but he didn't smile much.
"Uh...... Elder Taishang, to be honest, Yaoyao grew up under my watch, and her parents are also my friends in life and death, her temperament was a little lively before, but after all, she was a child, in fact, there was nothing, but now in this state, to be honest, I feel distressed!" Zhao Hao was a little excited, and he didn't say some words in his heart, because of his identity, since Elder Taishang asked, he no longer had scruples.
"Aren't you thinking about why so many days have passed, but I don't look at Yaoyao in person, but ask you to report to me every day. Elder Taishang said with a smile.
Zhao Hao nodded, he really cared about Si Yao, and everything he did and said was for Si Yao's consideration, so he was not afraid that Elder Taishang would know this, besides, with Elder Taishang's means, there was nothing in Tianbao Mountain that could be hidden from him.
"Before Yaoyao ran away, I calculated through cause and effect, but I found that someone was interfering with me, making me not real, but I could feel that the other party had no malicious intentions, so I didn't make more calculations. ”
Zhao Hao listened carefully, Si Yao's changes started from the last time he left, but no one knew what happened, and Elder Taishang also strictly ordered them not to investigate.
"As for Yaoyao's state, it is obviously caused by some stimulus, and if it continues like this, there will indeed be big problems...... Elder Taishang said.
"It's too ......" Zhao Hao couldn't help but be anxious when he heard it.
"Don't worry, I don't care about Yaoyao less than you, naturally I won't watch this happen, the reason why I haven't interfered with it is that I already know that Yaoyao's state won't last long, and this in a short period of time is an improvement for her!"
Elder Taishang touched his long beard, which was already completely white, these days he said that he was not worried that it was fake, in addition to asking Zhao Hao and the others to report every day, he often deduced and observed, and with the means of earth immortals, he could know Deng Siyao's every move without personally staring at it.
"Elder Taishang, what you said is true?" Zhao Hao hesitated, Deng Siyao seemed to be arrogant and naughty before, but in fact, she was very persistent in her bones, and the truth she recognized would never be easily changed.
Elder Taishang nodded, but he didn't say much, he didn't plan to tell Zhao Hao about these things, but seeing that he, as the pavilion master, was worried too much about Deng Siyao's affairs, he said it.
Zhao Hao was able to become the master of the Qianlou Pavilion, in addition to the reasons of ability, the recommendation of the Supreme Elder also accounted for a large part, otherwise with his innate realm without a backstage, how could he sit in the position of the pavilion master, which was popular with everyone.
At this moment, the figure of a young girl sat in an inconspicuous small attic in the headquarters of the Qianlou Pavilion, and there were delicate small flags floating in front of her.
The girl is Deng Siyao.
Less than twenty days is just a snap of the fingers for ordinary people, but for her, it is too long.
At this moment, compared to the appearance that Lin Fei saw before, she has lost too much weight, faint dark circles have appeared under her big eyes, and her little face with some baby fat has a trace of sickly beauty.
"Lian!"
The girl played a series of magic duels, and the small flag in front of her spun rapidly.
Without any sacrifice, you can control things in the air, this is an innate means, but Deng Siyao is obviously still in the acquired realm, and being able to achieve this effect can only be said to be her talent is high, and she can comprehend some innate means that can be used only with her acquired strength.
The small flag that was spinning rapidly suddenly paused, and then it lost control and fell to the ground with a bang.
Deng Siyao opened her mouth and spit out a mouthful of blood, but there was some confusion in her eyes.
After a long time, her eyes regained clarity, but there was still sadness in her eyes, this small flag was a superb heaven-level formation formation flag, and what she was doing now was to refine these formation flags.
It's just that she has never been able to complete the soul seal, and every time she is about to succeed in the end, there will be a picture of the tragic death of the villagers in Moore Town in front of her eyes, and her mind will be confused, and the soul mark will naturally fail.
"I'm sorry, if I wasn't too playful, you wouldn't have died, Lin Fei, do you still hate me?" The corners of the girl's eyes were a little moist, she had been living in deep self-blame these days and couldn't extricate herself, so she could only use cultivation to numb herself.
Wiping the blood from the corners of her mouth, with a trace of shocking scarlet at the corners of her clothes, Deng Siyao crossed her knees again, Deng Siyao began to recover her magic, she obviously wouldn't give up like this.
Zhao Hao and the others' worries are not unreasonable, Deng Siyao's current state is extremely unhappy, the matter of Moore Town has become her inner demon, the inner demon is not removed, with her current situation, arrogant cultivation, it is a matter of time before she goes mad, cultivation is just a trivial matter if she falls and is injured, and it is very possible to lose her mind and be controlled by her inner demon.
