The midnight mountain breeze was bitterly cold.

"It's so cold......"

Shui Linghan suddenly came to his senses.

"It's ...... The back mountain on the outskirts of Yuxian City? ”

Shui Linghan looked around and found that Lingxiu, Ying Ying, and Chu Haotian had all fallen to the ground.

"How did we ...... here?"

Shui Linghan was puzzled.

looked around, but saw a woman in white standing on the edge of the cliff not far away with her back to her.

The woman had long hair and a shawl, and her figure was shadowed in the moonlight, like a ghost.

"Who are you?"

Shui Linghan got up and walked towards the woman.

The woman seemed to sense that Shui Linghan was approaching, and slowly turned around.

Shui Linghan almost stopped breathing for a moment, what a beautiful face it was!

The woman saluted respectfully to Shui Linghan.

"Right Dharma Protector Ni Xin, I have seen the acting master."

"Ni Xin?"

Shui Linghan pondered.

"I don't think I've heard this name anywhere......"

Suddenly, Shui Linghan was startled.

"I remember! It turns out that you are the friend that your mother often mentions, the former right protector Ni Xin! ”

"Exactly."

"Just ...... Did you save us? ”

Ni Xin nodded.

"It's me."

Shui Linghan said sadly.

"You shouldn't do that...... Now Haotian's parents are still in Xie Yi's hands, and no one knows how they will be treated....."

"So does the Acting Lord think that by using his own death, he can exchange the safety of others?"

Ni Xin asked rhetorically.

Shui Linghan smiled bitterly.

"Isn't it? All the things he did were aimed at the Five Elements and One Vein......"

"Xie Yi wants to be the master of the immortals, so let him be the ...... If my death allows him to spare Haotian and them, I will have no complaints......"

Ni Xin shook his head.

"Xie Yi's purpose is far more than that, with my many contacts with him, this person is ruthless and decisive, and will never let go of your companion easily because of your death......"

"What he wants is not just to suppress the Five Elements and One Pulse, but to completely erase the prestige of the Five Elements and One Pulse in the Three Realms......"

"Lord Acting Master, you are the last hope of the Imperial Immortal Realm, if even you give up, then what will become of the Imperial Immortal Realm in the hands of Xie Yi, it is really unimaginable."

"I'm not a qualified Immortal Master......"

"But have you forgotten what you said at Ah Si's tomb? Forgot to avenge the innocent people of the Imperial Immortal Realm who were cruelly made into Gu medicine by Xie Yi? Forgot to revive the Five Elements? ”

"If you indulge in this frustration, how will you face the Five Elements Clan under the Nine Springs?"

Shui Linghan was deeply ashamed.

"I ......"

"Right Protector, Ling Han has been taught."

"Elder Jin once said to me that although the Five Elements and One Pulse are in danger, they should be as tough as bamboo! Ling Han was only immersed in his own powerlessness, but he forgot the oath he had made, which really shouldn't be. ”

Ni Xin smiled with relief.

"It's a blessing for the Acting Lord to think like this."

Shui Linghan thanked Ni Xin.

"Thank you so much for saving me today."

"But I have a doubt. How did you perceive that we were in danger? I've heard that you ...... sixteen years ago."

Ni Xin sighed.

"yes...... It's been sixteen years. My little girl has become a big girl. ”

"Little girl? Could it be! ”

Shui Linghan was shocked.

"Not bad......"

Ni Xin came to Lingxiu's body, leaned down and caressed Lingxiu's cheek lovingly.

However, the jade hand could not touch the spirituality.

Ni Xin smiled bitterly, but still maintained the stroking movement.

Shui Linghan looked at the poignant scene, and wanted to open his mouth to comfort, but he didn't know how to comfort him.

"Madame......"

Ni Xin smiled.

"Sixteen years ago, when I had just given birth to a spiritual practice, the enemy came to the door."

"It's ridiculous that the enemy is actually my best little junior brother......"

"What's going on?"

Shui Linghan asked.

"Twenty-five years ago, the monarch of the Shuren Realm wanted to bring the Imperial Immortal City under his command, but was rejected by the Imperial Immortal Realm, so the Battle of the Protector broke out."

"In order to protect the Imperial Immortal Realm, I naturally have the responsibility to protect the right protector, so I entered the army without hesitation. Then, he met Qiao Ruolin, the general of the Shuren Realm. ”

A happy smile appeared on Ni Xin's face.

"We fell in love at first sight, but providence made us, and we could only be opponents because of our position. So I can only hide the love in my heart. ”

"Later, under the fierce resistance of the Imperial Immortal Realm, the Shuren Realm gradually fell into disadvantage."

At this time, in order to avoid unnecessary casualties on both sides, the Lord of the Immortals sent envoys to conduct peace talks. In the end, the monarch of the Shuren realm gave up bringing the immortal realm under his command. ”

"After the war, Wakabayashi resigned from his official position, and I also gave up my identity as the right protector of the law, and only told the Lord of the Imperial Immortals that if necessary, I would be willing to work for him."

"And he and I came together naturally."

"But the good times didn't last long, but the happiness between me and him aroused the jealousy of the little junior brother."

"My little brother has always admired me, but I can't accept him. He was a very radical person, and I rejected him many times, and he still went his own way. ”

"On the day of the wedding, the little junior brother asked Ruolin to duel here, Ruolin didn't want to pay attention to it, but he couldn't bear the threat of the little junior brother, so he was invited."

"Although the little junior brother is in the same door as me, his strength is far below me, and I usually let him fight, it is difficult for him to even win against me, how to win Ruolin."

"Ruolin wanted to stop at the point, but he couldn't bear the repeated provocations of the junior brother, so he couldn't help but make his hand heavier."

"The defeated little brother smiled uncharacteristically, he smiled and said that he was going to give us a big gift, and then jumped off the cliff after shouting 'one day to come back for revenge'."

"We thought he was dead, but we didn't expect ...... He's still alive. ”

"When Lingxiu was just born, the little junior brother suddenly arrived, and his strength increased a hundredfold. Not only did he kill all his servants, but we were no match for him, and we lost our lives to his men. ”

"Fortunately, at the last moment, I sent a pair of children out......"

"A pair of children! In other words, Lingxiu still has an older brother, so where is her brother now? ”

Ni Xin shook his head.

"I made a deal with the judge in the underworld with Wakabayashi to help me return to the human world to protect my children at the cost of Wakabayashi's soul, but I only found spirituality."

Ni Xin lamented.

"Perhaps...... That kid is dead......"

The two were silent for a moment.

"Please mourn ......"

Ni Xin smiled with relief.

"That's it...... It's a blessing for me to see the devotional again, and how dare I ask for too much and just hope that child will be safe. ”

"Acting Master, can you promise me two things?"

"Madame is polite, if it is useful to Ling Han, just command."

"The Acting Lord is serious, I only have two requests."

"One of them is that I hope that the Acting Master will keep the spiritual background secret."

Shui Linghan was puzzled.

"Why? Don't you want to recognize her mother and daughter? ”

Ni Xin sighed.

"I don't want to see her mother and daughter."

"But if I want to protect her, I need to have enough strength."

"Whenever I show up to save the spiritual cultivator, it consumes what little spiritual power I have left."

"Repeatedly, one day, my soul will be more transparent and dissipate."

"That's the price of my return to earth."

"I don't want her to know that I exist, because I don't want to go through life and death with her again, and I don't want her to suffer because of this."

"What's more, she's never seen me, and there's no need for her to know that I exist."

"Instead of letting her know that she is uncomfortable, wouldn't it be better to let her accept her known identity with peace of mind, and let her live an ordinary and happy life, so that she can spend her life like this?"

Shui Linghan nodded.

"I see...... And what about the second thing? ”

"The second thing is to let the spirituality leave you and live an ordinary life."

Shui Linghan was a little displeased.

"I don't understand what you mean......"

"Then I'll get straight to the point...... You are shouldering the responsibility of saving the Three Realms and the Imperial Immortal Realm, but she should not bear these ......."

"I just want spirituality to live the life of ordinary people. Spend the rest of your life like a normal person, so ...... Please let the devotional leave you......"

"If I hadn't made a timely move today, I'm afraid that the spiritual cultivation would have died under Chu Haotian's men......"

"But it's not our fault......"

"I know. But it's best for her to leave you. ”

Ni Xin knelt in front of Shui Linghan.

"This is the last thing I ask you to agree to as a mother, please......"

Shui Ling was cold and couldn't bear it.

"Hurry up...... That's it, I promise you! ”

Ni Xin didn't get up, just looked at the spiritual cultivator and said lightly.

"They're waking up...... Thank you, Acting Lord.

Then Ni Xin's figure gradually dissipated into the air.

"Madame......"

At this moment, a slight sobbing sound came from the side.
