Chapter 14: The Heart of the Holy Dragon (Part II)
It turned out that this avalanche was not a change in the sky, but a meeting of the two great Saint Realm powerhouses.
It's just that the scene, the momentum, and the coercion in front of him are more violent and frightening than an avalanche.
This is the first time that Ji Chengche has witnessed Mr. Big's move, and with just a crystal clear snowflake, he beat the gray bat demon, one of the eight murderers in the Metaverse to the point that the fierce flames were extinguished, and he couldn't stand on his knees.
Ji's clear eyes were as bright as stars in the night, completely forgetting the danger and fear, and looking at Mr. Big excitedly, with admiration in his heart.
But in addition to admiration, there is also a sense of pride, a sense of ambition, and a longing for a good boy to be like this!
Suddenly, Ji Chengqing's shoulders warmed, and he was gently pressed by Ju Chongde's big hand.
As if guessing what he was thinking, Ju Chongde said in a deep voice, "You can do it." β
Hearing this sentence in Ji Cheng's ears, it only caused the blood to roll and stir like a tide of blood all over the body, and a heart thumped and thumped stronger and stronger.
Ji Chengche was not an ordinary person born in the mountains and grasses, he was born as one of the most favored sons of Emperor Ji Tianquan of the Han Dynasty, and he was an out-and-out dragon species.
But in Ju Chongde's words, there is obviously another meaning.
Who said that a general's son must be a general, and that the prime minister's descendants must be prime ministers? There has never been anything predestined by heaven, and there has never been anything unbreakable.
The glory of my father belongs only to my father, and my future must and will be created by myself!
Ji Chengche silently made a promise in his heart, and his small pair of fists clenched tightly.
At this time, the woman in black said to Mr. Big, "I'm leaving, can you try to keep me again?"
Mr. Big's face lost his usual warm smile, and even contained a hint of sadness, a hint of faint anger, "You can go, but leave it behind." β
The expression of the woman in black was hidden behind the mask and could not be seen, and she snorted softly: "Is that Ten Thousand Years Frost Holy Dragon Heart, what is the use of Mr. Big? β
"What?" Ji Chengche was taken aback, although he had not yet had the opportunity to see the 10,000-year-old Xuanfrost Holy Dragon, he had eaten dragon blood every day, and had played with the little dragon, and he had already regarded it as a close friend in his heart.
"Don't speak. Ju Chongde tugged at Ji's clear sleeve and whispered, his gaze staring at the woman in black for a moment, his expression was quite strange.
"You can't bear to kill the dragon to take your heart, I've done it for you. Now the Heart of the Holy Dragon is in my hands, and in less than an hour it will be completely necrotic. β
The woman in black said slowly: "Although the Northern Wilderness is big, Mr. Big may not be so lucky to find the second 10,000-year-old Xuanfrost Holy Dragon, right?"
Mr. Big's face was not shocked, and he said: "Leave the Holy Dragon Heart, if you leave, I won't stop you." β
"Why am I leaving? Even if I leave the Heart of the Holy Dragon to you, how sure are you that the transplant will be successful?"
"Xiaotong, you made a plan to lure me away, just to slay the dragon and pluck the heart?"
Ju Chongde heard this in the river valley, and the light in the tiger's eyes flashed, and he suppressed his voice to the lowest and said: "It's really Xuanyuan Tongβshe, yes, you, grandfather, mother-in-law!"
Ji Chengche was surprised: "Grandma, then she ......"
Ju Chongde nodded and said, "She is the mother of Princess Lingxi, the Xuanyuan Emperor of the current Demon Clan. β
"Oh my God?!" Ji Chengche gasped, he had no impression of his mother, and all his knowledge came from the legend of the palace attendant. So in a sense, this was the first time he had met a close relative of his maternal family.
At the beginning, it was his grandmother Qiankun who resolutely married her mother to her father, so as to reach an agreement on the withdrawal of the Han army, and the remnants of the demon clan were finally able to withdraw into the barren land of the southern barbarians, preserving a glimmer of life.
I only heard Emperor Xuanyuan laugh indifferently and said, "What's the matter, isn't it, Mr. might as well guess?"
Mr. Big stared at Emperor Xuanyuan and sighed softly, "You are really ...... It's unreasonable!" The hostility between the conversations gradually disappeared, and there was a little more embarrassment.
Emperor Xuanyuan's fierce eyes softened slightly, and said, "I don't care what you think or think, this kid is the only blood and bone left in the world by Lingxi, and I want to save him." β
Mr. Big was slightly surprised and said, "You want to personally perform the heart exchange technique for him?"
Emperor Xuanyuan said proudly: "Why not? Although I don't dare to compare myself to Qu Chunbai, but today, besides me, who else dares to do it, who is willing to do it?"
Mr. Big groaned and did not answer, his eyes looked at Ji Chengche and Ju Chongde standing in the Changbai River Valley, and the meaning was self-evident.
Ju Chongde hesitated for a while, he really listened to the words of Mr. Big and Emperor Xuanyuan just now, and probably understood the ins and outs of the matter. If you can completely cure Ji Chengqing, it is naturally a great thing, but the skill of heart exchange is very risky, and Emperor Xuanyuan is not 100% sure that it will succeed. What's more, no matter what, he and the demon clan have been fighting on the battlefield for half his life, but now he wants to hand over the prince of the immortal clan to the emperor of the demon clan. Although the other party intended to help, even if the person was his grandmother, it still felt that there were still some things that were inexplicable, which made people hesitate and embarrass.
Ji Chengche didn't have so many concerns, after all, the world of children is far less complicated than that of adults.
He was stunned and felt sad in his heart, no matter what, the Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Frost Holy Dragon died because of himself.
He was silent and didn't speak, and suddenly heard Emperor Xuanyuan say coldly: "Ji Chengqing, Lingxi did everything he could just to give birth to you." If you die like this, will you be worthy of her?"
Ju Chongde held Ji Cheng's hand and said indifferently: "Emperor Xuanyuan, Your Highness, he is still just a child. β
"No, General Ju, I'm not a child. The father said that if he was born into the emperor's family, he was not qualified to treat himself as a child. β
Ji Chengche raised his head and said: "I believe in grandma, I am willing to change my heart." β
His voice was immature, but with unquestionable determination.
Emperor Xuanyuan nodded, and coldly ordered: "Demon Night, take him to the top of the cliff." β
"No need. Ju Chongde carried Ji Chengche behind him, and kicked hard under his feet, and the figures of the two of them were like arrows from the string shooting towards the cliff on the right.
Seeing that the power of this kick was about to be exhausted, Ju Chongde shouted and raised the giant Xuan Cone and plunged it into the hard cliff wall, and then catapulted upwards with the force. After a few ups and downs, he fell to the top of the cliff with a snap of his fingers.
Emperor Xuanyuan said: "Give the child to me, wait here in three days, see people alive, and corpses when you die." β
Ju Chongde shook his head and said, "I want to stay by His Highness's side." β
Emperor Xuanyuan didn't say a word, his shallow red lips curled up slightly, condensing into a beautiful arc, and the wordless silence expressed an unquestionable refusal.
Ji Chengche slid off Ju Chongde's back and said, "General, I will come back alive." β
Ju Chongde stroked Ji's clear little head, and sighed in his heart, how can His Highness understand the sinister human heart at a young age. Emperor Xuanyuan could not hesitate to sacrifice his own daughter to Ji Tianquan as a hostage, how could he care about a little grandson who had never met?
The two sides were at a stalemate, when they suddenly heard Mr. Big say: "General Ju, since you have made up your mind, let him go with the emperor." β
Ju Chongde thought for a while and finally said, "Okay, I'll wait here for three days!"
A smile bloomed on Ji Cheng's little face and said, "General, thank you." β
He let go of Ju Chongde's big hand and walked towards Emperor Xuanyuan, took two steps, thought about it, and then turned back and comforted: "I won't be away for too long, don't worry." When I come back, can I call you 'Uncle'?"
"Your Highness!" Ju Chongde was stunned, a warm current flowed through his chest, and he suddenly said in a loud voice: "If Your Highness has the slightest accident, Ju Mou swears that he will lead 30,000 Jinwu to slaughter the Southern Barbarian Demon Clan in his lifetime!"
Emperor Xuanyuan snorted coldly, and wanted to break Ju Chongde's neck and throw him off the cliff.
Ju Chongde straightened his spine to meet Emperor Xuanyuan's threatening gaze, and his hand pressed on the giant Xuanyuan cone without moving.
"Grandma," Suddenly, Ji's clear and crisp children's voice sounded, "let's go." β
Emperor Xuanyuan lowered his head and looked at Ji Chengqing, took out a bitter dragon claw from his cuff and said, "Put it in your mouth and chew it vigorously." β
Ji Cheng made an "oh" sound, took the bitter dragon claw and obediently put it in his mouth.
The cold killing intent in Emperor Xuanyuan's eyes slowly faded, and he looked at the big gentleman on the cliff on the other side, and said, "Yu Tianze, I owe you the dragon slaying today, and I will repay it on another day." β
Mr. Big shook his head and said, "No need. β
"I said I would pay it back. Emperor Xuanyuan said: "In three days, I will hand over the child to you." β
Mr. Big bowed slightly: "Don't worry, I will do my best." β
Ji Chengqing listened to him talking to Emperor Xuanyuan, and a murmur began to buzz in his head, and Mr. Big's figure gradually blurred in his field of vision, his eyelids became heavier and heavier, and finally drooped.
So he entered Tang Yu's witch saint hall for the third time, and muttered to himself: "Mother......"
The ghostly light in front of him lit up, and Tang Yu appeared in the center of the main hall, and said indifferently: "Spiritual cultivators are most afraid of being troubled by love, and a father like you will never be able to make a living." β
Ji was clear for a while, and then realized that the nightmare was waiting for him all the time.
Fortunately, after getting along with each other a while ago, now he is no longer as afraid of Tang Yu as he was at the beginning, and asked: "Then why do you not forget to ask me to return the Heavenly Wheel to my relatives?"
"That ......", Tang Yu was speechless for a while, his eyes swept in the alcove on the left, and more than a dozen ancient books automatically flew out and crackled and smashed to Ji Chengqing's feet, and said coldly: "Start reciting books!"
Ji Chengche picked up a scroll from the ground with a grin, glanced at the title of the book on the cover, and wondered: "Isn't the Seven Tales of the Floating Life a notebook of the predecessors who recorded the grand occasion of the Great Qin Emperor's capital thousands of years ago, and what does it have to do with the cultivation of witchcraft?"
Tang Yu said: "A person's vision is destined to the height he can reach in the future, so traveling thousands of miles and reading thousands of books is the foundation of cultivation." If you can master all the laws in the world, you will be able to reach the laws of the Heavenly Dao. Besides, if you want to inherit the mantle of the old man, how can you compare it with those who are lonely and unheard?"
Ji Chengche listened to Tang Yu's lesson with respect, as if he didn't understand it, but he didn't tell him that in fact, this "Seven Tales of Floating Life" was memorized by the old master of the Han Hongru Jiang Lanting Jiang when he was five years old.
This time, I can finally seize the opportunity to be lazy for a while, this feeling of success in cheating under Tang Yu's nose is really exciting, as if I have returned to the familiar south study.
At that time, the sun was just right outside the window.
