Chapter Eighty-Six: The Sacrifice (Ask for Recommendation, Ask for Collection!)
The sun was slowly setting, and the afterglow of the sky shone on Yunze Peak, covering it with a golden coat. Occasionally, birdsong comes out of the woods, as if to call the other half home.
Chen Xiao was looking at the girl in front of her with a dull expression at this time.
At first, his brow was tightly locked, but as time went by, it slowly unfolded, as if it was smoothed out by a hint of blush on the other party's face, and was lighted by the other party's watery eyes.
She...... It's beautiful, it's not as light and plain as it is vulgar, and it's not as cold and beautiful as Yunxiao, but it has a feeling that people can't bear to look away.
Some are like a shade tree in summer, giving people a refreshing feeling, and some are like spirits drunk in the cold winter, hearty from the inside out.
It's not the eyes, or the expressions. It is the holiness and nobility contained in the whole that attracts the dawn.
In Li Shuying's eyes, Chenxiao's appearance is more delicate than that of a woman, and her delicate facial features are difficult to pick. To say like yourself, there are some, especially the eyes, but at this time...... But why is it so sluggish, it looks stupid.
She wanted to laugh, but she held back. With her identity, she can't express her emotions too much, she can only bury them in her heart.
What should I do now? I can't keep looking at it like this! Li Shuying thought to herself, but it's not bad to look at it like this, he's really attractive.
How could I be so superficial? It's a shame that my heart is beating so hard. Li Shuying secretly scolded himself for being a nymphomaniac. At the same time, her face became more and more ruddy, but it didn't look obvious because of the afterglow.
"Hey, what's wrong with you?" Li Yunyu watched the two of them stand still for a long time, and couldn't help but ask.
"Ah, it's okay, I saw that Shuying's hair was a little messy, and I was distracted for a while. Chen Xiao replied in a panic, and at the same time stepped forward and raised his right hand to help Li Shuying arrange a strand of hair on his forehead behind his ears.
"Shuying?" Li Yunyu was stunned when he heard Chenxiao's words and saw the other party's actions. It seems that only the queen mother would call her sister like this, and this action ...... There's something wrong with that, too.
Li Shuying was also shocked by Chen Xiao's actions, she had never been so close to a strange man since she was a child, let alone such an intimate action. Although she was dissatisfied, she still subconsciously said, "Thank you." ”
Chen Xiao finally came back to his senses at this time, and at the same time secretly scolded himself for being rude, the title and actions just now were too Meng Lang.
But this can't be blamed on him, Li Yunji's sudden opening just now really startled him, and he was at a loss in a panic, so he could only make up an excuse to fool the past, and the movements in his hands were also unintentional.
"Just rude. Chen Xiao bowed to Li Shuying and said with some embarrassment.
"Out of the way. Li Shuying hurriedly stepped forward and held Chenxiao's arms.
The moment Chen Xiao was held by the other party, his body froze, and he raised his head mechanically to look at the other party, which happened to be connected with Li Shuying's gaze again.
The two were silent and looked at each other for a while......
Seeing this, Li Yunyu shook his head, then looked at the big head who was lazily lying on the ground and said, "Let's go, big head, I'll take you into the house to eat some fruit first, so that the two of them can be in a daze here." ”
As soon as the big head heard that there was fruit to eat, he immediately jumped on Li Yunji's shoulder, shaking his head and flattering.
Li Yunwei looked at the two people in a daze again, and muttered, "They are really strange." After that, he ignored the two of them, and entered the residence with the big head......
In the next month, Chenxiao still chopped wood every day, but in the evening he would come to Li Yunji's residence, and in the name of it, he entrusted the big head to Li Yunjian to take care of, but in fact, he came to Li Shuying for a walk.
Although Li Yunwei is still a teenager, how can he not see Chenxiao and his sister's thoughts after a long time, it is obvious that Lang has the intention of being a concubine. But he didn't bother to care, after all, it was his business, and it had nothing to do with him.
"Ah Xiao, how long are you going to stay in the academy. Li Shuying looked at Chen Xiao and asked softly. At this time, she was strolling with Chenxiao on the sheep intestine path in the mountain behind the academy.
"Stay until you can protect yourself. Chen Xiao said helplessly.
The dragon clan has been destroyed, and he is now homeless, and if he leaves the academy, he will definitely be hunted down by the Terrans.
"Or ...... You and I will go back to the Terrans. Li Shuying stopped, looked at Chenxiao, and said sincerely, "I can intercede with my father and pardon you, so that you and I ......" Li Shuying didn't say any more, but the meaning was very obvious, so that you and I can be together.
"Forget it, it's going to get you in a lot of trouble. Chen Xiao shook his head, his face extremely calm. But he was sneering in his heart.
What are you kidding? As a member of the dragon race, even if I am here now, it will not be your turn to be the emperor of the human race. Wait, in less than ten years I will destroy your Terrans, and then you will beg me to forgive the remnants of your Terrans.
In the past month, Chen Xiao has been constantly approaching Li Shuying, not out of so-called admiration, but with other plans. This is part of his plan, the first step on his path to revenge.
Does Chenxiao like Li Shuying? Of course, the answer is "no"! Although he has some good feelings for the woman in front of him, he can't like it to the extent that he likes it.
Is this an exploit? Yes! Chenxiao wants to get close to Li Shuying and find a breakthrough from her, so as to enter the interior of the human race. Everything he showed during this time was all disguised.
"Between you and me, what trouble do you want to talk about?" Li Shuying was a little disappointed.
"To stand between heaven and earth, I cannot rely on a woman. Believe me, it won't be long before I reach the ninth stage, and by then, the sky will be high and no one will be able to threaten me. Chen Xiao grabbed Li Shuying's shoulders with both hands and said solemnly.
"Then, will you go against your father?" Li Shuying raised his head and looked directly at Chenxiao, tears flashing in his eyes, as if he was about to burst out at any time.
"Let him pass the past. Besides, I can't shake your vast empire on my own. Chen Xiao said sincerely, and said that he was a little helpless in the end.
"Thank you. Li Shuying threw herself into Chenxiao's arms, tears flowing slowly. She knew that Chenxiao had given up a lot, a lot of ...... for herself
As everyone knows, Chen Xiao's eyes were shining with coldness at this time, and a smile of successful trickery appeared at the corner of his mouth.
............
Yunze Academy, in the dark hall.
Dean Bai Zexi slowly put down the books in his hand, shook his head helplessly, and sighed, "I thought that the direction of things would change because of her appearance, but I didn't expect that she became a victim, alas, ......"
............
The reason why Yunze Academy is called the "Holy Land of Cultivation" is because there is a spiritual pagoda in the courtyard. Its tower is about 300 zhang high, hidden in the valley of Yunze Peak, a total of 108 floors.
The whole psychic pagoda is made of obsidian, and each floor has no windows and no doors, probably because it is too old, the exterior is dull, and it really looks like it has nothing to do with the word "spiritual tower", but its effect is obvious to all, and it is very helpful for the improvement of the strength of cultivators.
The Terrans once had the idea of a psychic tower, but for some reason, it ended in failure.
After the challenger enters the Psychic Tower, an illusion of a beast will appear in the tower, and as long as the illusion can be broken, they can enter the second floor. Of course, as the number of layers increases, the strength of the phantom beast will also increase.
The strength of the phantom beasts in the first 50 layers is generally below the first stage, and when it reaches the 51st layer, the strength of the phantom beasts will increase to the second stage, and every tenth layer in the future, the phantom beasts will increase by one level, until the 101st layer, the strength of the phantom beasts has reached the seventh stage.
Although the phantom beasts on floors 101 to 108 are all in the seventh stage, their strength is getting stronger and stronger, and in the end, they can even compete with the powerhouses of the eighth stage.
If you can break through to the 108th floor, you can apply for graduation, and after graduation, you can choose to stay in the hospital as an elder, or choose to return to the clan.
Ning Wanbai of the Terran was twenty-eight years old, lasted thirteen years, broke through to the 108th floor, and returned to the Terran after graduation.
The academy will also give certain rewards according to the number of layers of the tower that the disciples in the academy break into.
Chen Xiao was standing not far from the Psychic Tower at this time, looking at this towering building in a daze.
Bai Lai didn't tell Chen Xiao about the Psychic Tower when he was admitted to the hospital, he learned about it from Li Shuying.
To enter? To enter, or not to enter? Chenxiao hesitated. The academy has no special requirements for the cultivation of disciples, allowing disciples to develop freely, and the Spiritual Pagoda is just used as a tool for training.
The reason why Chenxiao hesitated was because there was a shortcoming in the psychic tower trial. That is, when the challenger is about to fail, the phantom beast will automatically give up the attack. Fortunately in the short term, if you try in the Psychic Tower for a long time, the challenger can easily lose his sense of crisis, and at the same time, it will also have an impact on his own potential.
"You've been through a lot of battles, and this kind of trial will not affect your own will. Seeing Chenxiao's hesitation, the big head lying on Chenxiao's shoulder couldn't help but say.
"How do you know so much?" Chen Xiao was a little curious.
"It's in my memory of the lineage, and it's a training method in my community. The big head jumped off Chenxiao's shoulder, and said in a milky voice, "You hurry up and go in!
"I didn't restrict your freedom when I was here, why are you in such a hurry to drive me away at this time?" Chen Xiao grabbed the big head, looked at the big head suspiciously, and thought to himself, there must be something greasy in this.
"No, no. The big head's eyes rolled wildly, and he stammered.
"Hmph, no, I think you must have something to hide from me, ......say it quickly!" Chen Xiao narrowed his eyes and raised his other hand at the same time, and he was about to beat the big head if he didn't agree with him.
"I, I just found a medicine garden in the yard. The big head's voice became smaller and quieter, as if he was afraid that Chenxiao would be angry.
"Hehe, don't forget your brother and me when the time comes!" As soon as Chen Xiao heard Datou talk about "Medicine Garden", she naturally understood Datou's intentions, and immediately put Datou down and changed his face.
"That's nature, wrap around me!" the big head assured with a paw on his chest, and then ran away.
"Remember going home for dinner in the evening. Chen Xiao looked at the big head in the distance and shouted loudly, with a cheap smile on his face......
