This was Xiao Xiao's first real killing, in this world of cultivation where killing is not against the law.
But she knew and tried to tell herself that those people deserved it and she was just doing justice.
The purpose of taking the photo was to record the power of the first Black Flame Talisman she created. In fact, she was quite powerful.
[Actually, I am pretty powerful too. Even Yuan Ying can't resist the power of this talisman.]
Hearing Xiao Xiao's voice, the phoenix couldn't help but roll its eyes, thinking, is it your talisman that is powerful? It is obviously its divine fire that is powerful.
Cheng Yuan had a complicated expression on his face. This girl seemed to be quite shameless, actually boasting about herself like that?
However, Xiao Xiao was surrounded by a group of people.
"Why are those talismans you just used so powerful? How did you do it?"
"Do you still have that talisman? I want to buy a few from you to study them."
"How did you learn the talisman? How did you draw the talisman without interruption? Is there any secret?"
"How do you know how to draw the talisman of our sect? Did you learn it just by watching us draw? It took me half a month to draw this talisman. How did you do it? Can you teach me?"
"Are you from a sect? Are you not interested in joining our Tianfu Palace?"
Everyone kept asking questions, and Xiao Xiao was almost confused.
[Help, someone come and save me, I am about to be crushed by them. ]
Cheng Yuan heard Xiao Xiao's wailing and quickly pulled his fellow apprentices away, "Okay, stop making trouble. Didn't anyone say they were going to be crushed by you?"
The one who was pulled away was a little girl. She looked unhappy when she heard this. "Brother, you see she is not unhappy. She is still smiling and she didn't say anything."
Cheng Yuan was stunned and looked at Xiao Xiao, who did have a decent smile on his face.
[Yes, yes, yes, just pull them apart like this, they are so rude. ]
Cheng Yuan looked at Xiao Xiao and blinked, and Xiao Xiao blinked back.
[Are you stupid? This group of people is too crazy. I want to be quiet. Don't ask me who quiet is. 】
Cheng Yuan's scalp was about to explode. He seemed to be able to hear the voice of the other party.
Could this be the legendary telepathy?
Oh no, she won't be able to hear his voice, right?
This was the first time he saw her today, and he didn't even know her name. Could she be his destined lover?
But it was obviously Junior Sister Qiao that he liked.
Cheng Yuan was frightened by his own thoughts and his face suddenly turned red.
"Senior brother, why is your face red?" I heard the curious voices of my junior sisters and brothers. It was so funny that my senior brother was blushing.
"Nothing." Cheng Yuan adjusted his attitude and was about to say something when he saw Xiao Xiao's eyes suddenly light up and he ran back.
“Yuanxuan, Senior Long, are you okay?” Although I believe they will be fine, I was still worried until I saw it with my own eyes. Now that I am really relieved.
"I just saw that group of evil cultivators got the victory they deserved. Xiaoxiao, you are really amazing." Yuanxuan praised sincerely.
Xiao Xiao felt a little embarrassed, "Actually, this is also thanks to everyone's help. I just took up a little bit of the work." Xiao Xiao made a little movement with his thumb and index finger.
On the other side, Cheng Yuan saw Xiao Xiao happily talking with others, and knew that they should be on the same side, and that their cultivation was higher than theirs, so he brought his fellow apprentices and sisters to greet them, "I am Cheng Yuan, a disciple of Tianfu Palace. Thank you for your help just now."
Xiao Xiao also returned the greeting, "I don't deserve to thank you, fellow Taoist. I am Xiao Xiao, a disciple of Ming Sect. We are both upright disciples. When we encounter evil cultivators, we should help each other. If it weren't for your formation, I wouldn't be standing here now, and I would have died in their hands long ago."
After saying that, he looked at Yuan Xuan and Long Shen and introduced them, "This is my friend Yuan Xuan, he is a disciple of Tianxing Sect, and that one is Senior Long Shen."
Cheng Yuan immediately led his men to salute the two men, "Senior Yuanxuan, Senior Long."
Cheng Yuan's feelings were a bit complicated. Junior Sister Qiao complained to him that Junior Sister liked to steal her things. He thought she was a cunning woman and Junior Sister Qiao was simple, so she was not her opponent.
But when he saw her today, she seemed different from what he imagined. She looked quiet on the outside, and although she was a little...lively on the inside, she was definitely a kind girl.
He did not see any evil thoughts in her clear eyes.
And it is really excellent, especially the talisman aspect.
So...is there some misunderstanding between Junior Sister Qiao and Xiao Xian?
Little did he know that Xiao Xiao was also muttering about him in his heart. He didn't pay attention to him at the critical moment just now, but now that he is safe, he thinks of this name and it seems familiar.
[I'm going far, isn't that just a cannon fodder that Qiao Shiyu tricked me into doing? ]
Suddenly, two different gazes were cast at him from different directions, but Xiao Xiao was so immersed in his own thoughts that he didn't notice.
[You silly boy, it’s fine if you know that your child is not your parents’, but what did you say to Qiao Shiyu? She has a big mouth, if she were a living person, she would have said something. Okay, people who shouldn’t know know it now. The real son is back, so you, the fake one, shouldn’t give way to others? ]
If the genders of the two people were reversed, wouldn't it be a play of true and false daughter?
Just, exciting.
Cheng Yuan's eyes darkened instantly. The fact that he was not his parents' biological son was an eternal pain to him.
His parents disappeared in a mysterious place while trying to find some materials for him. He wanted to trace his bloodline to find them, only then did he discover that he was not his biological son.
He felt regret, grief, shock, confusion, fear, and bitterness, and he couldn't vent all these emotions. He told Junior Sister Qiao about them.
This time, in addition to leading his fellow juniors to complete the mission, he also came out to look for clues about his parents.
Cheng Yuan clenched his fists, his nails digging deep into the flesh, and blood seeped out.
[The key is that the fake one is actually a fake. The first thing he did when he came back was to find out that Cheng Yuan had killed Cheng Zhenren and his wife, which made him abandoned by everyone and he secretly killed this Cheng Yuan. Later, in order to avoid being exposed, he actually killed Cheng Zhenren and his wife who were seriously injured when they returned. It was too tragic.]
[There are four things he shouldn't tell anyone: his mistakes, his goals, his money, or his family affairs. He told them all. He brought this trouble upon himself.]
[If he hadn't told anyone about his affairs, he wouldn't have attracted other people's attention. Then Master Cheng and his wife and he wouldn't have died, and they would still meet each other after a few years.]
【What a pity. 】
Little Phoenix: After hearing what the bipedal beast said, I realized that this person is really stupid. From now on, apart from his mother and his bipedal beast (after all, he swore an oath to the heavens and would not dare to harm it), he would never reveal his affairs to anyone.
Yuanxuan: It is true that misfortune comes from the mouth.
Cheng Yuan couldn't help but feel happy when he heard that his parents were still alive, but he felt very unwilling when he thought about the ending of their family.
Their family shouldn't have ended up like this, if what Xiao Xiao thought was true.
No, first of all, she didn't know he could hear her voice, so she couldn't deliberately deceive him in this way.
Secondly, this was the first time they met and they had no grudge against each other in the past, so there was no reason for her to plot against him.
So what she said must be true, his parents are still alive somewhere in this world.
It would be great if he knew where his parents were, but Xiao Xiao was speechless.
Can you continue?
Cheng Yuan's eyes were full of anxiety. He suddenly caught sight of Yuan Xuan standing beside him. He suddenly had an idea and knelt down in front of Yuan Xuan.
"I've heard that the Tianxing Sect is the best in divination in the world of cultivation. Today, I'm brave enough to ask you to tell me my fortune. My parents went missing and haven't returned yet. I want to know where they are now and how I can find them. Tell me what reward you want. I'll go through fire and water to find them."
"Senior Brother!" The disciples of Tianfu Sect were shocked, not understanding why their senior brother suddenly knelt down.
But Cheng Yuan looked at Yuan Xuan seriously.
Yuanxuan looked at Cheng Yuan straight in the eye for the first time, his eyes full of inquiry. Why did he suddenly bring up this topic? Did he know something?
"I don't think you can afford my father-in-law's divination fee." Long Shen said calmly, without any discrimination or derogation, and was telling the truth.
Unless Yuanxuan volunteered, the price to pay for asking him to tell fortunes was not something a Jindan could afford.
Yuan Xuan didn't say anything, Cheng Yuan still knelt on the ground.
[It's useless for you to kidnap Yuanxuan with your morals now. Your parents are trapped in the Guimo Secret Realm, which can only be opened after many years. Even if you know it now, you can't enter, right? ]
Cheng Yuan's expression relaxed. It was good enough to know where the secret place was.
He had to hurry back to the sect and report the matter to the sect, but no, he couldn't.
Some people in the sect don't want them to come back alive. If they knew their whereabouts, they would be in real danger.
Ask their friend Uncle Li for help? After all, Master Cheng saved his life.
But he had brought this disaster upon himself because he had told others about his own affairs. Could he really say it?
Yuan Xuan has been observing his facial expressions and made some guesses, "I will give you a free divination."
Cheng Yuan's face was full of surprise. "I want you to help me figure out who I can ask for help... to find? To be honest, I don't even know who I trust among the people I know."
Yuanxuan took out his fortune-telling tool for the first time, a copper coin, and asked Cheng Yuan for information about his parents.
The couple's situation was indeed difficult, and they were in a life-and-death situation.
But this life...
"Your parents are still alive, but they are now trapped in a secret place that will not be opened until years later. You go find someone to help you. He is from the same sect as you. He has a scar on his face and is good at swordsmanship. He saved your parents' lives in their early years and is their destined nobleman."
