Chapter 3: The Snake Fairy

"Come on!" Yun Xiao hurriedly pulled him trotting to the halo, Xiao Qianye raised his vigilance and stretched out his hand to test - he could feel a strong suction, and the cold wind was blowing from the opposite side.

"I'll do it. Yun Xiao obviously knew that he didn't know how to use Xuanmen spells, she erected the sword spirit, dragged the tip of the sword with her palm, and with the words she muttered, a cyan spiritual light began to spread out from her palm, like a spirit snake burrowing into the halo.

"Sword Formation, Sting. She scolded, and the Qingmei Sword swung with amazing spiritual power, causing thunderclouds to gather in the sky, and thunder roared down!

Immediately, there was a crisp sound from the opposite side of the halo, and at the same moment, the air in front of me began to crack like a mirror!

However, the scene behind the "mirror" made the two of them gasp together, they had just crossed the ancient forest from the seaside, and it was reasonable that they should come to the outer sea of grass, but why, now they are back in the snowy mountains?

The mirror gate circle is usually divided into two worlds, the world inside the mirror is everything is an illusion, and the world outside the mirror should be real except for people who will get lost in it.

Yun Xiao suddenly glanced back at the road they had come, and her eyes were full of astonishmentβ€”the ancient forest had disappeared, and they had been walking on this steep and snowy road just now!

The other party's mirror gate magic circle is fake inside and out!

didn't have time for her to think about it carefully, Xiao Qianye stopped her behind her, and the empty sword shot out and left a sharp sword wind in place to surround the two of them.

He looked serious and looked nervously into the air.

This snowy road is only enough for one person to walk, next to the bottomless cliff, and above their heads floated a group of strange "birdmen", who were flapping their huge wings and flying towards the top of the mountain, and they noticed the two people who suddenly appeared out of thin air, and they stopped and watched vigilantly.

With a human face and a bird's body, golden wings, slender hands, and an index finger like a claw, this is another branch of the two-headed goldfinch bird, which belongs to the golden-winged family of alien people.

"Yike...... It's a human being!" I don't know who was the first to speak, causing the birds to boil and chirp noisily: "Look, it's a human being!"

"It's the uniform of the military pavilion, and he is a member of the military pavilion!"

"It's not human, it's not human, no one will run into the mountains so stupidly!"

"It's human, your nose is terrible. ”

"It's not human, I don't smell like it, your nose is too bad!"

"Throw it down, throw it down, whether they're human or not, just throw it down!"

"Throw it down, throw it down!"

The flock of birds resonated and began to dive down to attack the two of them, and the huge wings were cut off by Qi Qi the moment they touched the sword wind.

Although Xiao Qianye is not afraid of danger, he also knows that he can't fight hard, the Goldfinch Clan is a branch of the two-headed Goldfinch Bird, and has evolved into a birdman, if the Goldfinch Clan came to the deep mountains to participate in the Bailing Conference, then their number may be hundreds!

The worst thing was that he didn't know if there were other aliens and spirit beasts around here.

He used his sword spirit to fend off the brainless attack while whistling loudly towards the sky, and if they had managed to escape from the Mirror Gate Circle, then his Celestial Bird should be nearby as well.

Sure enough, after a while, a huge white bird rushed like lightning, its size was three times the size of the Goldfinch, and the sharp claw blade easily tore apart the wings of the Goldfinch, and the birds were so frightened that they scattered and fled in all directions, but they were still chattering in their mouths: "It's the Heavenly Expedition Bird! Everyone run, it's the Heavenly Expedition Bird!"

The bird monster dispersed very quickly, and disappeared into the depths of the snow mountain in a blink of an eye, Xiao Qianye breathed a sigh of relief, touched the wings of the Tianzheng bird, and said: "It's okay, let's go back to the city first, the mountain is dangerous, and we can't stay at night." ”

didn't wait for Yun Xiao to answer, but another unfamiliar voice came faintly-

"Are you leaving?"

"Who?" he clenched his sword nervously, and his voice came from the bottom of the cliff, with a bit of laziness and disdain, and even yawned lazily, before continuing: "I'm still wondering what the Mirror Gate Array in the mountain is all about, and I saw that the young pavilion master of the military pavilion is coming, and I came alone, should I say that you have commendable courage, or ...... I don't know how thick the sky is?"

A huge shadow appeared in the depths of the bottomless cliff, and little by little it gradually revealed its true face, and it turned out to be a blood-colored python!

Xiao Qianye immediately realized that what he encountered was not an ordinary big snake - Feiyuan took the Tianyu City in the north of the center as the imperial capital, and built the four metropolises of Yudu, Dongming, Jialuo, and Yangchuan on all sides, and within its borders, there were seven alien forbidden places in the Charming Mountain, the Blue Falling Sea, the Empty Silence Holy Land, the Glacier Forest, the Weeping Snow Plateau, the Valley of Confinement and the Sunset Desert, and it is said that there were seven divine envoys left before the fall into the sky, and there were also three holy spirits and three demons living in it.

And there is only one giant python on the flying wall that can understand human language and has a blood-colored body, and that is one of the three holy spirits entrenched in the depths of the Enchanting Mountain, the snake fairy.

The big snake meandered up, it was 100 meters long but agile, climbing all the way along the cliff, it didn't seem to be hostile to the two, but it had some ill-intentioned dressing and chuckled: "Are you looking for someone? Earlier, I saw a man thrown into the mountain by a two-headed goldfinch bird, and that person was carrying a sword spirit, which is somewhat similar to the one in your hand......"

Its huge eyes also showed a look of expectation, and the tip of its tail was raised and pointed into the distance: "The place where it fell in happened to be the center of the Bailing Conference, and I haven't seen him come out all day, I don't know if he's still alive!"

"Senior brother...... Yun Xiao rubbed her sleeves anxiously, and the snake fairy immediately spit out the snake letter to get close to her, and then tempted, "The clothes of the two of you are very similar, are you in the same door?"

Xiao Qianye pulled her unhappily and asked, "Stop talking nonsense, where are the others?"

"Hehe, the identity of the young pavilion master is going alone, I'm afraid there will be problems. The snake fairy was unhurried and provocative, "You have done a lot of great things in the past few years, and the aliens in the mountains hate you to the core." ”

"The one to look for is always the one to look for. Xiao Qianye glanced at Yun Xiao and coughed lightly.

The snake fairy flicked his tail happily, naturally knowing what he was worried about, and said triumphantly: "Then I will send you in, but if you encounter any danger inside, don't blame me, I don't want to form a bond with the military pavilion master." ”

"Then thank you Snake Fairy. Xiao Qianye naturally returned the salute symbolically, the snake fairy snorted coldly, and the tail of the giant python held up the two of them, and then soared into the air and fell into the depths of the snowy mountain.

The temperature in the snowy mountain plummeted below zero, Xiao Qianye looked at the same door worriedly, the climate on Kunlun Mountain is very cold, and the disciples under the sect will also learn the mental method that is enough to keep out the cold, but at this time, her clothes are still wet, do you really not feel cold at all?

He touched his clothes, and it was clear that he had escaped from the sea, but the water was not wet at all.

Since he came to the Mountain of Charm, strange things have made him no stranger.

Xiao Qianye took Yun Xiao's hand and held it in his arms to warm her, but found that the other party's palm was hot, he was taken aback, and said suspiciously: "Aren't you cold?"

"It's not cold, I've never been afraid of the cold since I was a child. Yun Xiao didn't feel anything wrong, and put his hand into his arms instead, and said with a smile, "Are you cold? You've been back for many years, and Kunlun's mental method won't be used." ”

"But your clothes are still wet, and they'll freeze in a while. Xiao Qianye pointed to her body and reminded.

"No...... It won't freeze. Yun Xiao hurriedly pulled her collar and looked flustered, "I, my martial arts cultivation will not feel cold." ”

Xiao Qianye wanted to say something more, but the snake fairy couldn't stop giggling and turned his head: "It turns out that the young master of the military pavilion also has such a tender side, is the Xiao Qianye I have heard about for so many years fake? If you care about this girl for the other race, how many people must be alive and well, isn't it?"

The snake fairy had something to say, but he didn't say it explicitly, Yun Xiao glanced at Xiao Qianye carefully, although he looked unhappy, but he only pursed his lips and didn't reply.

In fact, she had heard a lot of rumors about Xiao Qianye when she was still in Kunlun, and now it seems that those terrifying rumors seem to be true?

Impossible, right?

She didn't want to believe it in her heart, but she couldn't ask directly.

The snake fairy saw her hesitation, touched her with a snake hyacinth, suddenly her eyes sank, and asked in a low voice: "What kind of mental method is this girl cultivating? The smell of your body makes me a little familiar, it is the unique breath of the Lingfeng clan on my flying wall." ”

"Lingfeng clan?" Yun Xiao repeated the snake fairy's words, and looked at Xiao Qianye again, the other party's brows were tightly locked, as if she was attracted by these words, and she then asked, "Is it also a kind of alien race?"

"Well, forget it. The snake fairy nodded, and then shook his head again, "There were six spirits, six saints, twelve immortals and forty-eight ancestors on the flying wall, although the Lingfeng clan did not belong to it, but it was even more respected as the head of the hundred spirits, and now there is only one person left, and I don't know if that adult will come at this year's Bailing Conference." ”

"That adult?" Yun Xiao said curiously, "In Kunlun Mountain, spirit beasts that can understand human language are already very rare, and the person who can make you respect the name of 'adult' must be very unusual, right?"

"The little girl has a very sharp mouth. The snake fairy praised it, thinking of that person, the giant python's eyes were full of longing, "She hasn't had any news for many years, the last time someone saw her was in the Heavenly Imperial City eight years ago, it seems that she is here for something......"

"For the destruction of the Tianzheng Mansion. Xiao Qianye took the words of the snake fairy, his expression became terrifying at some point, and even his tone was like an ice cave, "Eight years ago, there was a case of extermination that shocked the government and the opposition in the Heavenly Imperial City, the Tianzheng Mansion was destroyed overnight, and the scene was destroyed by fire, leaving no traces, except for the two sons who were not in the mansion that day, the rest of the people, together with the domestic servants, no one was spared. ”

"Hmm......" The snake fairy also realized something, and closed his mouth in amusement, but Xiao Qianye continued, "That fire has been burning for a few days and cannot be extinguished, it is the phoenix fire of the Lingfeng clan. ”

"Having said that, the matter of Tianzheng Mansion must not have been done by her, and Lord Feng Ji would not do that kind of thing. The snake fairy knew what he wanted to say, but he still stood firm in his defense.

Xiao Qianye sneered and said disdainfully: "Why did she suddenly appear at my door when she couldn't appear once in decades or hundreds of years? ”

"Hmph. The atmosphere instantly smelled of gunpowder, and the snake fairy simply said bluntly, "The only one who survived that day was your brother, isn't he even more suspicious?

Xiao Qianye glared at the big snake, but he couldn't refute it - he was still in Kunlun Mountain when the Tianzheng Mansion extermination case happened, why was the eldest brother not at home, and where did he go, this has always been a doubt in his heart.

But the eldest brother, as the only survivor, has been silent about this matter.

Yun Xiao didn't disturb the conversation between the two, and when she thought about it carefully, Xiao Qianye did terminate Kunlun's cultivation early because of the shocking changes in her family eight years ago.

She silently remembered what she had heard about Feiyuan in recent years - three pavilions, two palaces and one meeting, this is the basic form of the Feiyuan Continent now.

The Ink Pavilion, the Military Pavilion, and the Mirror Pavilion respectively rule the political, military and economic affairs of Feiyuan, and the imperial capital takes the Star Palace as the highest place of worship, and the Danzhen Palace as the highest medical center, and above the three pavilions and two palaces, it is the "Bipolar Society" composed of the six sons of the royal family headed by the emperor today, the four capital lords, and the three city lords.

These politicians, officers, businessmen, and aristocrats have teamed up to turn the entire island into a puppet in their hands.

And the center of the imperial capital Tianyu City is where the royal family is located, surrounded by an imperial gate, out of this gate is the noble area, where the Tianzheng Mansion where the Xiao family is located.

She always knew that Xiao Qianye was a famous nobleman in Feiyuan, and the first time she saw him, it was a completely different feeling, he was wearing a shiny and handsome dress, and she was a little confused for a moment.

From childhood to adulthood, she only had endless white robes and blue backgrounds in her eyes, and the senior brothers and sisters looked like heavens, and they were all floating in the way of a cultivator when they talked and laughed, and this boy who came to Kunlun Mountain alone from a distant island to seek a sword, he was so different!

However, Xiao Qianye rarely talked about his family, but that must be the most important thing in his heart, because he often stared at a small family crest alone in the middle of the night.

Yun Xiao lowered her head and took out an old badge from her sleeve, this silver-black badge was half the size of her palm, although it looked old, it revealed a kind of coldness that penetrated into the bones,

In the center of the badge is engraved a strange beast that she cannot name, resembling a white tiger, with a pair of black wings and a pair of eyes carved from precious sapphires.

"This ...... What are you carrying?" Seeing the thing in her palm, Xiao Qianye's eyes lit up, swept away the previous gloom, and finally showed a bright smile.

"It's yours. Seeing him caressing the family crest, Yun Xiao couldn't help but think of the day, it was two years after she started, the whole day of life was about to end, she packed up the sword spirit and was about to return to the sword peak, at this moment, Xiao Qianye's figure appeared in front of him in a strange way, he stood upside down, his feet hung on the protruding rock, and his body leaned forward as much as possible.

Startled, Yun Xiao hurriedly ran forward and stretched out her hand to pull him back: "What's the matter? What are you doing? You fall down so easily, I can't save you if you fall." ”

Xiao Qianye turned over and stood up, but his eyes were looking straight at the cliff, and he gritted his teeth and said, "My family crest has fallen, is there a way to go down here?" I'm going to find it back." ”

He actually wants to go to the depths of the cliff to find a family crest? If such a small thing falls, the senior brothers and sisters who have already learned the art of swordsmanship are helpless, right?

"Hey, wait a minute!" Seeing that he was really about to find a way down, Yun Xiao grabbed him, "You, don't mess around, there are thousands of cliffs down there, and I don't know what fierce beasts there are! If it's really that important, I'll let the perched branch bird help you find it back, what does that thing look like?"

"It's just that big...... It's round, and there's a beast carved on it, a beast that I don't know what it is. He gestured anxiously, but her blushing face made her cover her mouth and laugh.

This person who is like a lump of wood is still a little cute?

I still remember his expression when I helped him find his home badge at that time, he was obviously happy to die or pretended to be calm, and said "thank you" to her awkwardly.

It was only after that incident that Xiao Qianye began to really regard her as a junior sister, and after being surprised by the rapid growth of her swordsmanship, his face finally no longer had the incomprehension and disdain she showed on the day she started.

This peaceful life lasted until eight years ago, when bad news came from Feiyuan that the Xiao clan was wiped out overnight.

She didn't have time to know anything more, Xiao Qianye had already packed all his bags, except for the sword spirit, he had no intention of taking anything away, he had already changed into a clean white clothes, combed his hair, and in an instant, it was like going back in time to when he first came.

She didn't hold back, and she couldn't say a word.

And the only thing left was the badge in her hand now, the badge he handed to her eight years ago when he was leaving.

Knowing that he might not see him again, he still handed over the most important treasure to her.

The snake fairy stopped in mid-air, and the tip of the snake pointed downward: "It's to Qianrenbi, and then it's Wanling Peak, which is the center of the Bailing Conference, and that person fell near that yesterday, you have to go in and find it yourself." ”

The two of them looked at each other, where the clouds overlapped, and the moonlight was actually refracted from the clouds, which was very amazing.
