Chapter 262: One Grain, Two Buds

Li Weiyi didn't have to worry about the preparations for the engagement party.

He knew very well that he just had to go through the motions.

Therefore, he returned to the cave to practice in seclusion and avoid unnecessary trouble.

Inside the cave, after setting up a set of formation flags, Li Weiyi entered the blood mud space.

That set of battle flags was won in a martial arts competition years ago.

Li Weiyi sat cross-legged on the blood-mud ground, using his mind to peel away layer after layer of blood mist. Tanggu Sea and the Fusang Sacred Tree appeared on the other side of the space barrier, shedding brilliant light.

Then he took out a Light Flame Pill and swallowed it.

The body then becomes as bright as a light bulb.

Close your eyes, and perform the Fusang Divine Tree Meditation Method, absorbing the power of light and flame from both inside and outside, and strengthening the earth fire in the eyebrow spiritual world. (The Yintang spiritual world starts here, referred to as the spiritual world.) To reach the sky fire realm from the earth fire realm, you only need to accumulate one third of the spiritual light.

One third of a square foot.

If one wants to reach the Disaster Fire Realm, one needs to complete the cultivation of the entire spiritual world, which doubles the difficulty.

Several months have passed since Li Weiyi reached the level of Great Mind Master. He has been busy improving his martial arts, and the spiritual light in the spiritual world is less than one-tenth of his original state.

This is already very fast. Even the great masters who only cultivate telekinesis do not have such a speed of accumulation.

One Light Flame Pill is worth one thousand Yongquan coins.

Sixty coins equals 60,000 Yongquan coins.

Very expensive!

But there is no other way. Li Weiyi cannot practice slowly. He must break through to the Heavenly Fire Realm as soon as possible and go to Tanggu Sea.

After reaching the level of Great Mind Master, the speed of absorbing the Light Flame Pill increased several times, and it took only two hours to digest it. In the spirit world, the spiritual light increased visibly with the naked eye.

Just like the accumulation of energy in martial arts practice, it is also a long process of accumulation.

…………

The news of the engagement immediately caused a sensation in the city.

The secret that Zuoqiu Ting and Zuoqiu Hong were the same person was naturally made public.

Everyone knew that this was not only an engagement banquet for two young emperors, but also a marriage between the Zuoqiumen and the Jiuli tribe, which had extraordinary significance.

Under the cover of night, bright lights in government offices were lit one by one.

"Greetings, Master Zhuang!"

"Master Zhuang!"

In the corridor, the officials of the Attendant Hall stepped aside and bowed.

Zhuang Yue was holding the wedding invitation, walking quickly, her teeth almost broken, her eyes so cold that it seemed as if she was ready to draw her sword and kill someone at any time.

Arriving at the top of the tower where Jiang Ning was training, she tried to calm down her emotions and didn't know how to start. Just as she was about to turn around and leave, a pleasant voice came from inside asking, "What happened? Is there a result for the duel between the Chaorans?"

“Squeak!”

The wooden door and the formation opened automatically at the same time.

Zhuang Yue stood at the door, unable to take a step forward, tears welling up in her eyes, not knowing how to start.

Jiang Ning had already changed out of the skirt and hair accessories he had worn during the day, and was now wearing the official robe of a provincial governor. He was dressed in simple attire, sitting in meditation with his eyes closed, accumulating and tempering his energy, cultivating his seventh sea which had not yet been perfected.

In recent days, news about the young generation of geniuses breaking through the realm of Dao seeds has been spreading rapidly in the capital of Qiuzhou.

She also felt a sense of urgency and didn't want to fall behind others.

"Another emperor of the imperial court has fallen?" Jiang Ning's tone became much heavier.

Only four days ago did the news of Chao Ting Chao Ran's death come back.

If one more person dies, the impact will be too great.

The one who is even more afraid of falling is Chao Ran of the Jiang family.

Zhuang Yue shook her head vigorously, and finally mustered up the courage to say angrily and aggrievedly: "He is still a heartless person... He... He is going to get engaged to Zuoqiu Hongting..."

Jiang Ning opened his eyes: "Let me see!"

He took the wedding invitation handed to him by Zhuang Yue.

After looking at it for a long time, Jiang Ning closed the wedding invitation and handed it back: "I won't go. Three days later, you can prepare a gift for me to send."

"Miss! Are you just going to endure this?" Zhuang Yue said.

Jiang Ning pondered for a moment, stood up, opened the window and looked at the lights of the city outside, letting the cold night wind blow on her face. She said: "Zuoqiu Sect must get Qianlong, and only a marriage between the two of them is the safest."

Zhuang Yue said, "You can't hurt people like this, right? He didn't even tell you in advance during the day. In order to help him and save him, the young lady took huge risks to meet him several times. In order to keep his secret, she resisted the Second Palace Master's questioning, causing the master and disciple to become estranged. It's impossible for him not to feel your love!"

Only Zhuang Yue knew that Jiang Ning treated Li Weiyi differently from how he treated anyone else.

"If I hear these words again after tonight, I will drive you out of Luantai and the Jiang family." Jiang Ning said in the calmest tone.

Zhuang Yue bit her lips and teeth and nodded with tears in her eyes.

Jiang Ning sighed, "In the past, for the sake of the court, I would definitely find a way to sabotage this matter and not let the Zuoqiu Sect succeed. But now, the demons are coming in full force, and the human race must unite to fight back. We can't continue to waste energy among ourselves."

"In fact, it's a good thing that the Zuoqiu Clan is so actively preparing for the marriage. It means that the human race has withstood the attack of the demon race, and the battle may be over soon!"

"You can't hide your feelings. It's better not to go to the engagement party. I will arrange someone else to go."

Jiang Ning raised his eyes slightly and looked at the towering mountain dotted with stars in the night sky: "Who knows what he is thinking? How can there be so many people who are in love with each other in this world? Regret and imperfection are the norm. It's good that the clouds break in the vastness, so that they won't collide with thunder and rainstorms."

…………

Qi Xiao sent people to look for Yang Qingxi's whereabouts at noon, and soon got some clues, so he immediately rushed to confirm.

As soon as he went out, he met a servant from Zuoqiumen, who was delivering a wedding invitation to the Qi Mansion.

Qi Xiao was curious, so he naturally stopped him. After asking, he was surprised and delighted: "What a joke... so outrageous... bring it to me quickly, my only brother, has he really practiced the secret of living off his wife?"

After reading the wedding invitation, Qi Xiao laughed out loud and was already thinking about how to drink at the wedding banquet three days later.

"Brother Weiyi has made a great leap forward. In the future, he will at least be the man of the Zuoqiu Clan Patriarch. It is also possible that he will be the man of the Lord of the Lingxiao Living Realm."

Qi Xiao returned the wedding invitation to the servant and decided to handle the matter of Yang Qingxi more carefully. He must not bring any romantic trouble to his only brother at this critical juncture.

He did not take a car, but wore a nightgown and walked stealthily.

Arriving at the mansion that Qi's spies had found, Qi Xiao memorized the location and surrounding environment. At this moment, the back door opened, and Yang Qingxi, wearing a loose black robe with a hood over his head, got into a carriage mysteriously.

The driver was a boy of about fifteen or sixteen years old, wearing a linen shirt and shorts. There was nothing special about him.

The only unusual thing is that the driver...

Too young!

"Interesting! It's so late, and Miss Yang is dressed like this. It seems like she is hiding an incredible secret."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

After Qi Xiao broke through to the Dao Zhong realm, he was so skilled and bold that he naturally did not take Yang Qingxi seriously, so he followed him quietly.

What Qi Xiao didn't expect was that the carriage kept going out of the city. Finally, it stopped in a remote town 200 miles away from Qiuzhou.

After a night of traveling, the sky was already bright.

How could Yang Qingxi, who was of such status, come to such a place? Qi Xiao was even more surprised. Seeing that there were already early risers in the town, he observed and followed the wheel tracks.

"One grain, two buds, three leaves of seedlings crawling in the wind."

"The four petals of the crescent moon are swaying in a curve, and the five grains of golden rice are laughing happily."

…

In front of us, barefoot children came in groups, singing nursery rhymes.

Qi Xiao, who was in invisible state, quickly stepped aside and watched them leave with a smile on his face.

In my mind, I recall carefully.

It was discovered that almost all of those children were twins.

"It looks like they are a group of rice-man children. I wonder if they are slaves raised by a big family, or if they are the seedlings of the dead warriors?"

Qi Xiao suddenly thought that Sui Zong seemed to be running a rice trading business, and guessed that perhaps this was one of their cargo transshipment bases.

Soon, we arrived at the end of the town.

A Taoist temple half-hidden among the lush trees appeared before my eyes. Outside the temple, there were already a large number of carriages parked, coming from all directions.

There was no driver on the carriage.

Suddenly, the whole world became unusually quiet. The small town, which had pedestrians and nursery rhymes just a moment ago, suddenly became lifeless.

Qi Xiao had already noticed something was wrong, frowned, and prepared to retreat.

"Since Young Master Qi has come to Daozu Temple, why not come in and sit down?" An old man's ethereal voice came from the Taoist temple in the distance.

not good!

Qi Xiao's expression suddenly changed and he turned and left.

As soon as I turned around, the sky suddenly darkened.

It was as if the whole world had changed and turned dark again.

In the town we just passed, on both sides of the street, every house had a light on and a coffin placed in front of the door. Outside each house, there were two identical figures.

There were two old men sitting on the ground sharpening sickles, looking at him from time to time and making strange chuckles.

There were two young men, wearing linen shorts and carrying long swords.

There were two stunning beauties, one sitting on the eaves, wearing sexy and revealing clothes, with large areas of white skin exposed, laughing sweetly, while the other sat under the eaves, quiet and elegant, playing the piano with her fingers.

Qi Xiao saw Yang Qingxi.

She stood alone in the center of the street, wearing a black robe with only half of her face exposed.

Qi Xiao was so shocked that he looked around at the dark sky. He could no longer tell whether he had arrived in the morning or not, and whether he had followed him all night. He said in a trembling voice, "Impermanence Illusion... Which Holy Spirit Master played such a joke on me?"

"joke?"

The woman sitting on the eaves, with her two beautiful white legs dangling, smiled seductively and said, "Sixth Goddess, you brought this mess with you, you have to deal with it yourself!"

"He has already reached the Dao Seed Realm." Yang Qingxi said lightly.

"Okay, I'll help you solve it. You owe me a favor!"

The sexy woman moved, her body was magnificent, and the accessories all over her body jingled and emitted a dazzling glow.

Qi Xiao used his skills and turned around to escape.

But behind him was the even more bizarre Taoist temple, which was frightening, so he wanted to go around it from the right. But a group of barefoot children came over from the right and blocked his way.

The nursery rhyme sounded again, but to Qi Xiao's ears, it had a completely different meaning, and his heart was filled with fear.

"One grain of rice, two sprouts, get up at three o'clock to kill the master."

"Blood splatters everywhere, staining the white veil, and at five o'clock in the morning the sky is full of flying crows."

"A six-foot grave, seven steps of evil."

"Eight lines of incantation hang from the sky."

"Nine heads hang on ears of corn, ten generations of extinct families sprout from me."
