Chapter 86 Chapter 86 "Heart Birthday?"

To be honest, Jiu Zhao was also unwilling to sign a blood pact with Zhulong.

Zhulong is a traitor. If this secret is discovered by others, Jiuzhao will not be able to explain it even if he has ten mouths all over his body.

The sudden surge of power was about to run out, and she could lose consciousness at any moment.

It was an idea that came to him in a moment of urgency, which would allow him to save his life and obtain the submandibular pearl at the same time.

The blood pact is inherently unequal.

A blood servant cannot unilaterally sever the connection, and the recipient of the blood can sever the relationship with the blood servant by paying a small price.

After offering the submandibular pearl, Zhulong is no longer useful.

However, during the validity period of the contract, due to the constraints of the treaty, she cannot control the other party to harm or even kill her.

Therefore, we can only find a suitable opportunity to sever the blood contract first and then kill Zhulong.

Zhulong insulted her father and mother gods, and harmed her and Yingluo to this extent.

If it weren't for the submandibular pearl, Jiu Zhao would never want to have anything to do with it——

However, after tormenting it and going through so much trouble, the answer I got was this.

Jiu Zhao was very dissatisfied.

Reflexively, she looked at Zhulong with suspicion again.

This time, she didn't need Zhulong's reminder. She immediately thought that Zhulong was connected to her by blood, and she could directly enter its body.

Controlling the immortal consciousness, he carefully examined the situation inside the body of Zhulong——

Jiu Zhao reluctantly admitted that the other party was indeed not lying.

After separating from the huge dragon body, the beast's strength was now as weak as its shrunken body.

Her expression changed for a moment, and she asked, "When can I take out the beads?"

Zhulong didn't want to answer, let alone pay attention to her.

The real pain coming from its limbs and body told it that the dragon was under the eaves and had to bow its head.

It stretched its long neck, and finally retracted its head under Jiu Zhao's cold gaze: "...I have to wait until most of your strength is restored."

The phoenix totem still shone brightly in its eyes.

The blind pupils seemed to have a little more light, as if they could see normally.

Thinking that they had a blood contract and could not deceive themselves, Jiu Zhao suppressed his murderous intent.

However, in her eyes, Zhulong was no different from a dead dragon, so Jiuzhao didn't mind making full use of it.

She remained silent for a moment, then asked another question: "Do you know what that unknown power that suddenly emerged from me is?"

Upon hearing this, Zhulong was slightly surprised: "How come you don't recognize the divine power that your father god, who loves to steal people's wives, put into you?"

"Keep your mouth clean."

A woman's hand suddenly appeared in the spiritual center and slapped it several times. Jiu Zhao's sinister gaze shifted to the other intact dragon horn of Zhulong. He gritted his teeth and said, "If you don't learn to obey, I will not only lose your horn, but also all your dragon scales."

Without waiting for the stunned Zhulong to react, she spoke directly, "When that power appeared, I felt like a completely different person. My heart was devoid of emotion, filled only with a desire to attack and destroy. When I woke up, the power had vanished without a trace, so I naturally didn't notice where it came from. You said it came from my Father God, but I don't even remember when it was placed in my body."

Zhulong originally thought that this half-body divine power was a life-saving talisman that Sichen left for his daughter in case of crisis.

But Jiu Zhao said he didn't know and asked himself instead.

After pondering for a moment, Zhulong thought of a second possibility: "If you have no recollection of it at all, then the divine power was most likely sealed within your body before you were born. For this to happen—could it be that your Father and Mother Goddesses gave birth to you through a heart birth?"

"Heart Birthday?"

Although this word exists in classics, it is rarely mentioned.

Jiu Zhao recalled for a few moments, then spoke blankly with a touch of unconscious sadness, "It's rumored throughout the Three Pure Heavens that the Mother Goddess blocked the sword for the Father God during the great war between gods and demons. She was still seriously injured and desperately tried to give birth to me, which is why she exhausted her divine power and blood and died. How could I be a child born from the heart?"

The so-called heart birth is a unique way of birth for the most powerful gods and demons.

Take half of the mother's soul, also called the primordial body, and half of the father's cultivation, and nurture them in the father's heart for five hundred years, and you can create a child who is born with powerful strength. Because the child is the fruit of the parents' hard work and born from the father's heart, it is called "heart birth".

Compared with the traditional method of uterine fertilization, ectopic birth is more harmful to both parents.

Moreover, this damage is permanent and cannot be fully recovered through practice.

Ever since Jiu Zhao regained consciousness, he saw that Father God had premature gray hair.

She used to think that it was because the Mother Goddess had passed away and the Father God was too sad - now she thought, perhaps there was another truth?

The Father God loves the Mother God so deeply that he would willingly sacrifice half of his cultivation to share the responsibility with the Mother Goddess.

After studying in the court of Yunshengshi for many days, Jiuzhao no longer looked at the problem superficially. She thought deeply about this confusion and soon realized that the reason why the Father God announced to the outside world that he was born by the Mother God was probably for the peace of the Three Pure Heavens and the stability of the Three Realms.

A monarch is like the leader of a lion group.

Once it is discovered that they have lost half of their strength and are unable to cope with the situation, they will face endless challenges until they are completely overthrown.

The sea of ​​burning karma is like this, and so is the world of life.

The same is true for the Three Pure Heavens.

Jiu Zhao could understand this.

Zhulong is tens of thousands of years older than her, so naturally he can understand it.

Jiu Zhao was sensitive to the subtle changes in its expression. After his determination to kill it grew stronger, Jiu Zhao asked again, "You said your original body was destroyed in the Sunless Abyss to protect me from disaster. Then what is your current form? A wisp of spirit, without a physical form, that can only exist in my spiritual platform?"

"Of course not. Once your immortal power recovers, I will be able to condense a dragon body immediately."

Zhulong turned his head away and explained uncomfortably, "This is the secret method of the magic dragon of Mingtan. It abandons its outer body at the critical moment to preserve its original body. It is also called 'escape from the shell'. The magic dragon is rare and has always avoided the world and fighting. I guess no one in Sanqingtian knows about this trait."

It's a dragon, and it's mixed with the demonic dragons in the Burning Sea. How can it learn their life-saving methods?

Jiu Zhao frowned slightly.

After a while, I suddenly realized it.

It is a hybrid of immortal and demon, and its biological father, who has never been mentioned, must be the magic dragon.

"Forming a pact with you is quite useful. It allows me to understand many of the demon clan's secrets..."

Jiu Zhao muttered a few words in a low voice.

Because he is blind, Zhulong is extremely sensitive to the details of the external world.

Therefore, this murmur reached its ears without missing a word.

It was so angry at this extremely honest body that it almost vomited blood. After the anger of being disappointed in someone it couldn't match, it prayed to the heavens for the first time in its life, asking Jiu Zhao to be a little more stupid and slow, and not to ask any secrets she shouldn't know.

…

After another half a month of rest, Jiuzhao was gradually able to speak fluently.

The body, which had initially shown no reaction to needle pricks, was now able to sit, lie down, walk and stand on its own with the help of a wooden crutch.

Although the Danxuan Palace is spacious and magnificent, it feels boring after living here for a long time without anyone to accompany me.

Jiu Zhao originally wanted to go out for a walk to speed up his recovery.

When he was about to push open the palace door, he was stopped by the female fairies on guard.

After a stick of incense, King Qiongying came hurriedly.

She led Jiu Zhao to the long tea table, looked him up and down, and nodded with delight: "As expected of Your Highness, your immortal power is pure and you are gifted. Even your physical and spiritual recovery is much faster than I expected."

"Aunt Qiongying."

Jiu Zhao had seen King Qiongying's dedicated care these past few days. She politely used the respectful title for an elder and said, "Now that you're feeling much better, I thought we might as well go out for a walk. Staying cooped up in Danxuan Palace all day is going to make me sick."

King Qiongying always responded to Jiu Zhao's requests.

When she heard Jiu Zhao call her "Auntie", she was moved for a moment, and explained to Jiu Zhao more sincerely: "Your Highness, your coming to Nanling to recuperate is a secret kept between me, the Emperor, and several of my trusted immortal officials. Even my daughter Chongyao is unaware of it.

"Your previous behavior—"

King Qiongying paused, somewhat unsure of how to comment, then jumped in and said, "Anyway, this matter is of great importance. The Emperor has not yet issued an edict declaring the will of the immortals. You are still in the Yunsheng World, overseeing the repair of the Heavenly Stairs, so it is not appropriate for you to appear in front of outsiders."

Well, if you can't go out, then you can't go out.

Jiu Zhao felt that he had grown up, so he shrugged slightly to show that he had given up.

However, when King Qiongying mentioned Princess Chongyao, she couldn't help but think of the person she cared about most at the moment.

Jiu Zhao stared intently for a few breaths, not knowing how much King Qiongying knew about the whole matter. Then his eyes flickered, and he lowered his head to ask tentatively, "But after recuperating for so many days, there's nothing serious for me. I just don't know about the others—"

She deliberately only spoke half of her words.

I thought that if the other party understood the process, they would naturally know who the "others" here referred to.

However, after he finished speaking, Jiu Zhao waited for a long time but never received a reply from King Qiongying.

She couldn't help but worry if something was wrong with Yingluo.

Just as I raised my head, I suddenly found that the elder opposite me, who was always kind and gentle, had a gloomy face.

Noticing Jiu Zhao's silent gaze, King Qiongying finally opened his half-pursed red lips and said in a bad tone, "Your Highness, are you talking about that kid Yingluo? That kid is lucky. After Xingyao's treatment, he has already returned to the West Sea."

When others talk about "good luck", they always feel a sense of relief.

But when King Qiongying said these two words, there was an inexplicable gnashing of teeth in his expression.

Jiu Zhao was embarrassed for a moment and cursed himself in his heart.

Still treating Yingluo as the Xihai Zongji whose words and actions carry an ethereal aura——

He became the prince of the Divine King. He was previously engaged to Princess Chongyao but broke the engagement in public. How could he still be favored by King Qiongying?

When he heard the news that Yingluo was safe, he realized that he had spoken out of turn.

Jiu Zhao's guilty eyes drifted towards Yuan, thinking of Zhu Yan who was nurtured in Changle's fate card.

This matter is even more difficult to say.

Before finding out whether Xingyao had revealed the secret, Jiuzhao decided to continue to hint at it.

"Aunt Qiongying, did Xingyao Tianxian also return to Sanqing Heaven? Did she go to the West Sea to look after it, or is she in Nanling now?"

King Qiongying controlled his expression and was about to speak when the Peony Order hanging around his waist suddenly lit up.

She casually wiped away the restriction on it and concentrated her mind to sense a few breaths.

He stood up solemnly and said to Jiu Zhao, "Your Highness, the Emperor wants to see you."
