22 Chapter 22
Win all battles and be invincible in the world.
What would that look like?
Xue Yan subconsciously looked down at his hands, his palms were slightly hot, as if he had been aroused by these nine words.
"Have I ever challenged him?"
The saint shook her head: "No. β
"That's a shame......"
The saint followed her line of sight, looked at her hands, and suddenly said, "Guiyi has a pair of very beautiful hands, hands that turn over the clouds and rain." β
She suddenly mentioned this, which made Xue Yan a little confused.
The saint smiled again, and she seemed to love to laugh: "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone about seeing you today." β
Xue Yan couldn't understand what was there to rest assured about, didn't the fact that the personal disciple of the head of the Xuantian Sect had been imprisoned by the Demon Venerable had almost spread to the whole world?
Xue Yan looked at the saint seriously, her temperament was very special, like a begonia flower that was about to turn from bloom to decline when it bloomed to the most intense, and her sideburns were also holding a few l of fresh double-petaled begonias, which contrasted with the pearl flowers.
The saint noticed her gaze and said softly: "You said before that I am very much like the begonia flower on the side of the road that is delicate but about to bloom, it seems that it will be blown away by the rain and wind in the next moment. β
These words sounded a little romantic, and Xue Yan was stunned: "What is our relationship?" β
The saint sighed lightly: "We really don't have anything to do with it, you just like to praise people casually, men, women and children, people, demons and monsters, and you are never responsible after boasting." β
"......" The two sat in silence for a moment.
"You're here to see me?" It was Xue Yanshu who broke the silence.
"That's right."
Xue Yanjing had sworn in front of Elder Jiang that the Holy Maiden of Hongluan Palace would not be so boring, who would have thought that this guy would really be so boring.
The saint laughed: "You also know that there are many people who have offended him, I originally thought that if that kid really has a favorite concubine who has wandered in the cultivation realm, it is better to take a look, lest you be killed by others." β
ββ¦β¦ Thanks a lot. β
"All right," said the holy woman, as she got up, "I'm leaving." β
"......" feelings at a glance, it's really just a glance.
Seeing Xue Yan's shocked expression, the saint's eyes flashed with a smile, she raised her hand and patted her shoulder, and quickly retracted it, as if she was afraid that she would suddenly burst out and bite: "When I saw you, I knew that you don't need my protection, you don't need anyone's protection." Even if you are injured and have lost your memory, some things are always the same. β
She brushed her sleeves and pointed to the beautiful scenery outside the window: "Take your sword and go out and make waves, warrior!" β
ββ¦β¦β
Xue Yan was shocked to think that he might have met a madman.
"Is there anything else you'd like to ask?" Before leaving, the holy woman finally showed mercy and became a little more normal, giving Xue Yanjing a chance to ask questions.
"When I was young, I had a sword called the Finch Feather, and I always carried it with me, have you ever heard of its whereabouts?" Xue Yan asked hopelessly.
"I really hear that...... I've heard someone talk about it. β
Xue Yanjing looked at her expectantly.
"You were in the Demon Realm at the time, to deter some people
, A sword slashed at the diamond rock of the demon world, and she shouted loudly in her mouth, ()" The holy woman cleared her throat and performed in a colorful voice, "Those who go against my will, how ...... is it?" ()γCome []*See the latest chapter*Full chapterγ()"
"What's so?" Seeing her pause, Xue Yan was puzzled.
"I guess you originally wanted to say, 'There is such a stone', but at that time you may not have known the Vajra Rock, a specialty of the Demon Realm, and after a sword goes down, it will shatter your feather," the holy goddess had a complicated color, "So you changed your words on the spot, and those who go against my will have such a sword." β
ββ¦β¦β
"What's that look on your face?"
Xue Yan blinked: "I originally thought there would be a very poignant story in it. β
"You were embarrassed at the time, so it was actually quite bitter."
Xue Yan sighed in amazement: "I can probably guess why we didn't become friends anymore. β
The saint laughed loudly: "Eat as much as you want, keep my account, anyway, the dividend given to Guiyi this year can probably be saved." Then she swept out of the window gracefully, and disappeared into the sky with the sedan chair and the bird that had carried her.
It wasn't until the shadow of the restaurant could no longer be seen that the cronies of the Holy Maiden of Hongluan Palace spoke cautiously: "That person is really ...... It doesn't seem to be the same anymore? β
The saint leaned lazily on the soft pillow, and sighed faintly when she heard the words: "It can't be that guy who is narcissistic to the extreme, and he has found a favorite concubine who is exactly the same as himself." β
ββ¦β¦ With his narcissism, it's not impossible. β
"You," the saint was amused by her cronies, looked up at the small piece of sky framed by the window of the fairy sedan chair, and sighed, "In this world, how many people are like her?" If the return to oneness really falls, won't this world be boring again? β
ββ¦β¦β
βββ
Xue Yan didn't understand the purpose of her trip, nor did she understand the relationship between her and herself, but she didn't have the heart to explore, poked her head out of the window, waved her hand, and signaled that everyone was safe before opening the menu and taking a closer look.
A bowl of somen noodles with five hundred medium-grade spirit stones, a pastry with one thousand-grade spirit stone, and a plate of green vegetables with two thousand medium-grade spirit stones made Xue Yan sigh in surprise, calculating the price of a jade-cutting sword, it was enough for him to eat five hundred fried vegetables here.
Xiao Er on the side sighed when he saw this guy flipping through the menu, and immediately guessed that she was too expensive, and quickly explained: "Girl, we use the best materials with abundant aura, and fry them in the way that does not hurt the aura of the ingredients. β
Whale Drink Building? Xue Yan was shocked to notice the name of the restaurant - the whale drink has not swallowed the sea, the sword qi has fallen, and the Guiyi Demon Venerable has even achieved such a domineering name in the restaurant.
"Then what is the reason for this 5,000 high-grade spirit stone jar?"
"Our wine here has a wonderful use," Xiao Er said, "Drinking it will boost your confidence." β
"Huh?"
"Girl, what do you think, there is the secret realm of ten thousand swords in front of you, and the monks from all over Kyushu have drunk our wine, and they are confident, and they will go in and kill the Quartet, isn't it wonderful?"
Xue Yan raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Overconfidence is not necessarily a good thing. β
"Hey, our wine is not to make people blindly confident," Xiao Er explained, "It is within a reasonable range, which makes people abandon cowardice and cheer themselves up." β
"Then let's have a jar." Xue Yan
() Surprise was also aroused curiosity.
"Girl, would you like to try our package?" A bowl of somen noodles, a serving of green vegetables, and a jar of sake, a total of 7,000 medium-grade spirit stones, converted into seventy high-grade spirit stones, are cheaper than a single point. β
"Okay." Anyway, you can remember the account of the Hongluan Holy Maiden, and Xue Yan was not polite.
The food and wine were quickly served, and she looked at the scenery and drank alone by the window.
This whale drinking building really has some uniqueness, even the green vegetables that she usually doesn't like very much are sweet and refreshing, and the wine also contains aura, after Xue Yan drank half of the jar, he felt that he could kill ten Shen Cangliu with a sword.
Profiteer, Xue Yan thought.
She is alone against the early stage of ten avatars, which is also a reasonable range of self-confidence?
During the months of recuperation, Xue Yan was shocked that the wine was not stained, and now I don't know if the wine is too strong, or if her own amount of wine is not too good, most of the jar is in her throat, and she is already a little drunk.
The appearance of the Holy Maiden of Hongluan Palace today inevitably made her start to think about her past.
She looked down at her hands, her ten fingers were slender and clean, and even the place where the tiger often held the sword was only a thin layer of cocoons that had been sharpened in the past few months, as if she had not used a sword for many years before, and the traces of her hard work had long since disappeared, but it was really like a canary that was carefully raised in the palace by the Demon Venerable.
"Guiyi Demon Venerable, what do I have to do with you......" She was a little drunk, leaning against the window and muttering to herself, "Because he's strong, so I liked him?" β
"It's impossible to ......" she quickly denied it, just like when she heard the sentence of the Hongluan Holy Maiden just now, "Win a hundred battles, invincible in the world", her first reaction was to ask if she had tried to challenge Guiyi, in the face of the strong, she would only think about how to defeat the other party, probably not because of his strength and no love.
If he didn't understand, he didn't want to, Xue Yan raised his head in surprise and drank the wine in the jar and jumped down from the window.
It was a completely knee-jerk move, she didn't even have Edgeworth, and she hadn't realized she could fly without Edgeworth.
When he landed suddenly, Xue Yan looked up at the signboard of the Whale Drinking Building, and felt that he should retract the evaluation of the profiteer, not wanting that this wine would really have some effect.
She suddenly felt interesting, and stepped into the door of the restaurant again, packed more than a dozen jars of wine to bring to the fellow disciples who had maintained her, and left a jar for the senior sister and brother alone.
However, with this packed thing, she was not too embarrassed to take advantage of the Hongluan Holy Maiden, and honestly paid the spirit stone.
The shopkeeper saw that she was happy to pay the bill, and smiled and took out a set of cold cups: "Girl, do you want to match a set of cold jade cups?" Pour the liquor into it, drink it coldly, and it can also be used to hold some ice drinks and herbal tea on weekdays, and the whole set only needs a thousand high-grade spirit stones. β
"......" is still a profiteer.
But Xue Yan was shocked to think of the Holy Maiden's cup of golden wind and jade dew that exuded cold air, and he was still shamefully moved, and he paid the bill happily and took the entire set of cold jade cups into his bag.
Just as he was about to leave, the shopkeeper recommended again: "There is also this red jade bucket, put the cold food in it, only half a cup of tea work, it can be steaming, it is most convenient when it is inconvenient to make a fire in the field or is afraid that the fire will attract wild beasts, only five hundred high-grade spirit stones are needed." β
Xue Yan was helpless: "If there are any other good things, just take them out." β
The shopkeeper smiled shrewdly.
In the end, Xue Yan was shocked
Gui (), she bought another wooden barrel for steaming buns? [()]?γ Come to []$ to see the latest chapter$ full chapter'(), as long as the ingredients are thrown in together, cover the lid, and the wooden barrel will automatically clean these things during the incense time, pinch them into buns, and steam them by the way, it doesn't matter if you put too many things such as onions, ginger, garlic, salt, etc., the wooden barrel will remove the excess things and steam them into buns according to the best ratio.
It didn't seem to be of much use, but under the recommendation of the shopkeeper Yu Canlian, Xue Yan was shocked to want it, and when she left the restaurant in a hurry, she remembered Song Ming's action of covering her purse, and she actually had a trace of resonance with him.
The same people were still wandering around the market, and when they saw her coming out of the restaurant, they all gathered around, and asked what the holy maiden of Hongluan Palace wanted, she shook the jar to everyone with a smile: "It's okay, please drink." β
"Whale drinking wine? I've wanted to try it for a long time! The crowd cheered, sat around the lake, slapped open the jar, and poured wine from the cups they had brought.
Xue Yan looked at Song Ming with an awkward expression: "When the Holy Maiden appeared just now, I saw that you also drew your sword in front of me. β
Song Ming crossed his arms and looked at the sky: "Everyone has drawn their swords, I'm afraid that I won't fit in, don't think about it." β
Xue Yan laughed in surprise and poured him a glass of wine himself: "Okay, I don't think much about it, drink the bar." β
Song Ming hesitated for a while, but finally raised his glass and touched her, and then raised his head and drank it all.
A female cultivator came over: "By the way, Senior Sister Xue, aren't you going to buy a dress for Spirit Silk?" I just saw a beautiful style, you have no experience, I'll help you bargain later. β
"Thank you." Xue Yan held his face in shock, and couldn't help but have doubts about the words of the Hongluan Holy Maiden, how could he have no friends in the past hundred years?
"By the way," she remembered something, and asked her fellow disciples, "Have you ever heard the name Ye Yingge?" β
"Of course." Everyone nodded.
/>
Xue Yan was shocked that everyone had heard about it, and he was stunned for a moment, and asked, "Who is that?" β
"The female general under the throne of the Guiyi Demon Venerable, known as the 'Demon Twin Walls', Ye Yingge," the same door smiled, "It's a big name, we have naturally heard of it." β
"Demon Twin Walls?" Xue Yan was surprised and curious, "Who is the other wall?" Unified Demon Venerable? β
"That's not it, no one in the Demon Realm can be called the same as Guiyi," the same door, "Another person in the Demon Clan's Shuangbi, named Li Changting, is also a subordinate of Guiyi. β
The female cultivator on the side fed Xue Yan a piece of newly bought mung bean dumplings, and asked casually, "Senior Sister Xue, what are you asking for?" β
"It's just that I heard the Holy Maiden mention it just now," Xue Yan thought for a moment and continued to ask, "What kind of character is this Ye Yingge?" β
"This is complicated to say, Ye Yingge is a descendant of a half-human and half-demon, and she is considered to be the one who is closer to the cultivation world in the demon world, and I heard that it is not consistent with the political views of the Guiyi Demon Venerable," someone said, "In the early years of the cultivation world, there were still people who tried to push her to the throne and replace the Guiyi Demon Venerable, but this plan was stuck in the most important step." β
"Which step?"
"Kill the One Demon Venerable."
"......" That's an important step indeed.
"If this kind of thing happens, what if Guiyi doesn't treat Ye Yingge?" Xue Yan asked again in surprise.
"Then I don't know, maybe I punished her privately and deprived her of some of her military power, right?" Tongmen shrugged his shoulders, "Anyway, Ye Yingge was silent for a while, and then he came out and belonged to his generals." In fact, when she became famous, she was in the demon world
() It's been entrenched for hundreds of years, maybe there is any force or magic weapon in his hand that makes Guiyi afraid of three points and doesn't want to tear his face? β
Xue Yan nodded thoughtfully in surprise.
"Demon Twin Walls," she asked, reading the nickname, "What is the title of the Demon Venerable?" β
Tongmen thought for a while: "If you have to say something, there is something that is not very good, maybe it is caused by the enemy." β
"What is it?"
"Mad Dog of the Demon Realm."
ββ¦β¦β
"It's really crazy!" Another fellow came up and said mysteriously, "I heard that the boots that Gui Yi even wears are made of the skin of the mermaid in the East China Sea, and they are not the skin of the fish-shaped part of the lower body!" β
......: "Why don't you just say it's made of human skin?"
This rumor was a bit too outrageous, not only Xue Yan didn't believe it, but others also laughed and scolded him for talking nonsense, and a group of people started to fight again.
The effect of this wine was immediate, after drinking the wine, everyone was full of confidence, Xue Yan stared a little nervously, and saw that no one's confidence was so inflated that he wanted to raise his sword and rush into the secret realm to kill it.
After all, everyone is just high-spirited, but they haven't lost their minds, at most, someone ran to the stall where they could get the magic weapon reward after the challenge was successful and confronted the stall owner, and the female cultivator next to him also pulled Xue Yan in surprise: "Come with me, I feel that I am in good shape now, and I will definitely be able to bargain for you to the lowest!" β
"......" Xue Yan followed obediently, and was taken by her to a slightly remote ready-to-wear shop, looking at the dresses that were put out, the style was indeed elegant, and the store also made a small breeze gust, blowing up the sleeve corner skirt, water skirt wind belt, extraordinary.
Xue Yan's surprised gaze fell on a long white dress, with white jade as the button around the waist, and a slight flow of light on the skirt. But she only felt strange in front of such a colorful long dress, Xue Yan couldn't help but feel sad, and felt that her wallet must have been empty in the past hundred years of amnesia.
But now that he has money, Xue Yanjing didn't hesitate to buy it, after choosing a few l sets of dresses, the shopkeeper ordered something on the cabinet, and a set of strange magic weapons flew up, a soft ruler wrapped around Xue Yanjing's waist, shoulders and neck, and then the scissors cut a few l on the clothes she selected, and then the magic weapon began to thread the needle and thread, and quickly sewed on a few l pieces of clothing, before and after only half a pillar of incense, the shopkeeper looked at her: "Girl, okay." β
Xue Yan was shocked to change into one of the pleated skirts embroidered with moon-white orchid, this dress was a little wide of fashion when she chose it, but after the magic weapon was changed like this, it fit her waist perfectly, she couldn't help but look at the strange magic weapon: "Sell?" β
The shopkeeper looked at her suspiciously: "You're not a colleague, are you?" β
"Naturally not," the female cultivator who came with her waved her hand, "We are the sword cultivators of Xuantian Sect, and we are tired to death after completing the homework assigned by our master on weekdays, how can we have time to grab business with you?" My Senior Sister Xue rarely goes down the mountain on weekdays, thinking that she can change her clothes at any time after buying this thing, which is convenient. β
The shopkeeper thought for a moment and stretched out his five fingers: "Five thousand high-grade spirit stones." β
5,000 top-grade? It's actually half of the jade sword? Xue Yanjing had just been slaughtered by the Whale Drinking Building, this magic weapon was too expensive for her, and she was about to say something, when she saw the female cultivator of the same sect calmly propose: "Five hundred." β
"Four thousand five, no less."
"Six hundred."
ββ¦β¦β
The two were arguing, Xue Yan listened in a trance on the side, this was a very unfamiliar territory to her, and finally came to her senses when she heard the female cultivator transmit the voice to herself.
"What do you think? Is it okay to be good at 2,000? β
"Okay!" Xue Yan nodded hurriedly.
The two parties made a happy deal.
"What are you buying this magic weapon for?" Leaving the shop, the nun inquired, "You don't go to open a shop, it's too extravagant to just use it to change clothes, anyway, these ready-to-wear shops can help modify it." β
"I just want to."
The nun laughed: "You must have been a rich man before. β
The two of them walked slowly along the bazaar, and when they heard a familiar shouting and cheering, they approached together, and three or five disciples of the Xuantian Sect were surrounding a stall, and when they saw Xue Yan, they gave them a seat to watch.
There are several bamboo slips hanging on the stall, and there are small flowers in the basket on the low table in front of a few people.
The kung fu of flying flowers and picking leaves is still a little more difficult for these disciples, the gap between the bamboo slips is extremely narrow, and the stall owner is cunning, seeing that they are about to shoot, he secretly flicks his fingers and shoots out the spiritual power to flick the bamboo slips in a very small amplitude, so that it can stop the flowers from castrating.
A few people knew that there was fraud, and they couldn't catch the handle, and they were helpless for a while, Xue Yan was shocked and watched quietly for a while, and someone asked her: "We still have half a basket of flowers left, do you want to try Senior Sister Xue?" β
"What's so hard about that?"
The stall owner glanced at her with a blade of grass in his mouth: "The tone is not small, twenty medium-grade spirit stones and a basket of flowers, I see that your half basket is not enough, do you want to buy another basket?" β
"Not necessarily." Xue Yan smiled in surprise, slapped the table with spiritual power in his right hand, and the flowers in the basket were all shaken up, and the pale pink and light red pieces were raised one after another, as if it had rained flowers in the sky, splashing with overflowing fragrance.
Before the flowers fell, she pushed it with her left hand, and the flowers shot out, all of them passed through the bamboo slips steadily, hit the curtain, and fell to the ground.
In the stall owner's dull eyes, Xue Yan turned around and raised his eyebrows proudly at the same door: "If you want any color, pick it yourself." β
At that moment, there was a sudden silence around them.
Xue Yan was surprised: "What? β
"No, nothing," someone stammered, "but suddenly I felt ...... Senior Sister Xue, you are so good-looking, it's not that you have a good-looking face, it's the kind of good-looking that is radiant, no, I'm not saying that your face is not good-looking......"
What mess? Xue Yan laughed in surprise.
"No," the stall owner came back to his senses, "you flowers have made a gap in my bamboo slips, and they didn't pass through the cracks at all!" Don't count, don't count, you can't take the lottery! β
"That's right," Xue Yan laughed in amazement, "The flowers I threw can knock your bamboo slips out of the gap, are you sure you have to rely on my account?" β
The stall owner of the "......" was silent for a moment, and finally chose to bend and stretch.
Seeing that this cunning fellow was soft, several people cheered, and stepped forward one after another to pick a small colorful head, but it was just some sword spikes, pendants, etc., but they were so happy that they seemed to have returned home with a great victory.
In this way, the disciples of the Xuantian Sect lived a few days of leisure, and seeing that there were only a few l days left before the closure of the secret realm, Elder Jiang and his party had never seen any traces, and they couldn't help it
I got a little agitated.
Some people discussed whether to go in again to have a look, but they were dissuaded by others and asked him to believe in Uncle Jiang, even if something really happened, they rushed in and added to the chaos.
In the early morning of this day, Xue Yan was woken up by a loud noise, and heard someone shouting "Senior Brother Fang" downstairs in the inn, so he hurriedly got up and went downstairs, and saw several disciples of Xuantian Sect carrying the unconscious Fang Yuan into the door, and there was also a disciple on the side who was crying: "I'm sorry, it was me who broke in, so Senior Brother Fang was injured in order to save me." β
Xue Yan strode forward in shock, and the other disciples saw her expression and hurriedly reassured: "Senior Sister Xue, don't worry, I've already called for medical cultivation, and I'll be there immediately." β
Considering the danger of the secret realm, there are several medical halls at the entrance of the secret realm, and the medical repair came quickly, diagnosed Fang Yuan's pulse, and after visiting the internal organs, wiped his hands, and said: "It's not serious, I'll prescribe a prescription for you, remember to take medicine every day, if you don't wake up after three days, go to the medical hall to find me." β
The medical cultivator wrote the prescription and left in a hurry, he was really busy, every time the Ten Thousand Swords Secret Realm was opened, there were not a few injured monks.
Only then did everyone reluctantly put their minds at ease, and properly placed Fang Yuan in the inn room, taking turns to take care of it.
Xue Yan was shocked to wet the veil and wiped the blood from the corners of his lips for the sixth senior brother, the disciple who broke in was so frightened that his face turned pale, he was frightened by the fierce appearance of the people of the Xianwu Sect who were blocked at the gate of the Ten Thousand Swords Palace, and left in a hurry alone without waiting for the same door, when Fang Yuan went to chase him, he rescued him from the monster's mouth.
Xue Yan was shocked and had no intention of blaming him, so he only asked, "What about Senior Uncle Jiang and my third senior sister?" Why haven't you seen them yet, and has there been any conflict with the Xianwu Sect? β
The disciple shook his head: "I don't know, when I left the Ten Thousand Swords Palace, Senior Uncle Jiang and the others were probably still in the secret room to save people. β
Xue Yan was shocked: "Okay, you have also been frightened a lot, go and rest first, senior brother has me here." β
After everyone left the room, Xue Yan raised his hand and pressed the chest of the sixth senior brother, closed his eyes and sent him a spiritual power, until he saw that his originally white lips were a little bloody, and then he withdrew his hand and covered him with a quilt.
That night, more than thirty Xuantian disciples came out of the secret realm, escorted by three masters, they looked exhausted, and they fell asleep as soon as they touched the pillow.
After relieving himself on the second day, he said to the others: "I don't know why, the monsters in the secret realm seem to be getting more and more powerful, do you remember the kind of bear monster we encountered at the beginning, we met another one, the eyes were red as blood, revealing a burst of weirdness, we wasted a lot of effort to kill." β
The others didn't pay much attention: "How do I remember that the bear monster's eyes were originally red?" β
Xue Yan counted the number of people in surprise, and found that there were only three disciples left in the secret realm, as well as Elder Jiang and Yan Hui, combined with what the person said just now, she couldn't help but be a little worried, and decided to wait another day, if she didn't see them come out tomorrow, she would go into the secret realm to take a look.
At noon, Xue Yanjing lost another round of spiritual power to the sixth senior brother, and when someone came to take over from her to take care of Fang Yuan, she went downstairs to forage for food, and just as she was ordering, a disciple rushed in: "Oh no, Li Xuan was blocked by the people of the Xianwu Sect!" β
Li Xuan was the disciple who was rescued by Fang Yuan before, and when everyone in the Xuantian Sect heard this, they hurriedly followed the disciple who reported the news and left.
When he arrived, he was meeting someone from the Xianwu Sect pulling Li Xuan's collar: "The last time I saw you, you had a weak face, do you know anything?!" β
"No, I really don't know anything," Li Xuan shook his head again and again, trying to explain, "I was born with a weak face!" β
"Don't talk nonsense, tell me everything you know," the male cultivator who carried him said compassionately, "Otherwise, there will be one more lonely grave in this mountain." β
Xue Yan was about to step forward to stop him, but he heard Song Ming beside him say provocatively: "Yo, then you are not bad, you actually kill and bury." β
"......" probably didn't know how to answer this sentence, and the people of Xianwumen and Xuantian Sect were silent for a while.
At this moment, the streamer Yuling on Xue Yan's waist lit up, and she was shocked, senior sister?!!
